Chapter 193 Kindness
"Brother, there are three thousand beauties in the harem, you should not think of the Xu daughter. I am worried. If my second sister knew my identity, would she not agree with the matter between me and Jingxian? My second sister hates these intrigues. Her love for Jingxian is extraordinary." Mingyu expressed her troubles.
Li Mingrui laughed, "This is your own problem. If you want to embrace the beauty, you have to pay a price. I have already promised you that you will not arrange a side room for you. You will be the only one who decides your marriage. I think Jinghan is not picky anymore."
Mingyu has been in the palace for a long time. Since the matter has been resolved, he can go back and talk to Wenhan and the others with confidence. "By the way, brother, how many days are you going to lock Lin Zixuan up? But don't be too long, they have already set the wedding date. Don't delay the second sister getting married. You also know that it's not easy for her to marry. Last time someone made trouble, but this time it was disturbed by Wanrou. " Mingyu shook his head and expressed sympathy for Jinghan.
"For Jinghan's sake, it's just for three days to be locked up. It's not good that I'll put him in during the day and release him at night? I have to save face in front of all officials, right? Well, you can go to the prison to see him and have someone take good care of him. I also want to sharpen his spirit, otherwise, what kind of arrogant will you be like in this three-yuan pass?" Li Mingrui was naturally a little unwilling to accept it, but as a monarch, his responsibility for the court and the country surpassed his love for Jinghan.
Mingyu bowed and bowed, "Emperor brother, I really admire the emperor's mind. For a good minister, I can give up the beauty. If I change to another person, Lin Zixuan's life will be over. If the emperor brother has such a mind and courage, he will definitely become a virtuous king in the future."
"Okay, don't have to compliment me here. I just understand Jinghan's personality. If I really kill Lin Zixuan and force Jinghan into the palace, I'm afraid she can kill me to avenge Lin Zixuan, and then commit suicide. She is such a strong woman. Don't look at the fact that something really happens, no one can stop her madness." Li Mingrui laughed. Such a woman should actually be more appropriate to be friends. "Okay, it's not too early, you should go home quickly. I'm thinking, Xu Wenhan and Yue Pengcheng are afraid they are in a hurry."
Mingyu nodded, then came out of the imperial study room, left the palace and headed straight for the other courtyard.
In the villa, Wen Han and Peng Cheng were like ants on a hot pan, anxious. "I don't know if Mingyu has the ability to rescue Zixuan. What do you think of this emperor? Why did you suddenly remember to marry him?" Wen Han looked at the door and said anxiously.
"Your heart is unpredictable. Who knows what the emperor is thinking? It's true that it's said that being with the king is like a tiger. It's true. It's only the first day we were, but Zixuan was inexplicably thrown into the Heavenly Prison. You said this was a mess, alas." Pengcheng was also very anxious, but this matter was not something that the two of them could solve at all, so they could only be anxious.
The two of them stared at the door, waiting anxiously, and suddenly they saw a light outside, and then the sound of footsteps came. Both of them couldn't sit still, so they got up and walked out, just in time to meet Mingyu.
"Mingyu, you're back. What's going on?" Wen Han asked.
"Brother, brother-in-law, don't worry, you two have already figured out the matter. The fifth princess took good care of my second brother-in-law and asked the emperor to issue an order to marry. After all, it was just a coincidence. When you go to Baiyun Temple, how could the second brother-in-law save the fifth princess? Is it a waste?" Mingyu said with a smile.
"Fifth Princess? Where did you come from such a fifth princess? We had seen a woman that day? Could it be that the person Zixuan grabbed was a woman?" Wen Han thought about what happened that day and then asked.
"Isn't that true? The fifth princess is a naughty man. She loves to dress up as a man and go out to hang out. She happened to be rescued by her second brother-in-law. When the banquet was given to the Royal Garden, she saw her second brother-in-law again. When she learned that she was the top scholar, she began to marry her second brother-in-law." Mingyu shook his head, feeling helpless.
"What's going on with Zixuan?" Pengcheng couldn't help asking.
"It's okay. The emperor cherishes his second brother-in-law's talent and says he will not force him to marry the princess. However, this refutes the emperor's face in public and is inevitable in prison. It will be released in three days." Mingyu couldn't bear to lose their appetite and told him the result directly.
As soon as these words were said, Wen Han and Peng Cheng both breathed a sigh of relief, "Since that's the case, we will feel relieved." The two of them sat on the chair and wiped the sweat from their foreheads.
"Before I came back, I had already gone to Tianzhu to see my second brother-in-law. He was fine and he had not suffered any punishment. I had told the people inside that they would take good care of their second brother-in-law and would be fine. Three days later, I will go and get my second brother-in-law out in person." Mingyu quickly comforted him when he saw the situation of the two.
Wen Han and Pengcheng finally felt relieved. Wen Han looked at Mingyu and asked. "Mingyu, tell me the truth, what is your identity? Why did you appear in the Imperial Garden and be able to go to the palace to inquire about Zixuan. Even the Heavenly Prison is free to enter and exit? Who are you?"
Mingyu sighed, "Brother, it's not that I want to hide it from you, but it's really a last resort. The surname Li is a royal family, and I am the Prince of Fu of the current dynasty. I'm afraid that you will not agree to Jingxian marry me if you know it, so I have been hiding it. But I can't hide it for a few days. In order to save my second brother-in-law, my identity will be exposed sooner or later."
Wen Han and the other two were shocked by the news. What happened today made them feel incredible. "I heard that there was only one prince in the capital, the younger brother of the current emperor and his compatriots. In other words, the young master Li that day was the current emperor, right?" Wen Han had never seen Li Mingrui, but had heard from his family.
"That's right, that's my emperor's brother. Both the emperor and I were born to the first empress, but the mother was weak. After giving birth to me, she became sick and died when I was five years old. The emperor and I depended on each other for the sake of life, so I called him the eldest brother. In fact, the emperor's brother was the third son of the late emperor, and there were two princes on it. The throne was extremely dangerous. At that time, the emperor was ordered to go to the northeast, but he did not expect that he was intercepted by the eldest prince. Then he was discovered by his second sister and saved his life. When the emperor returned to the capital, he immediately started to fight back, but I was young and he was afraid that I would be assassinated, so he sent me to the mountain." Mingyu said this, paused for a moment, and then continued.
"This is the past. Brother, we have no intention of hiding it. It was just that the emperor had not ascended the throne at that time, and it was enemies both openly and secretly. At that time, the emperor sent people and kept protecting it secretly at the scene. Later, Lord Wu, Mr. Han, and Qi Yunfei were sent over to protect your family. Otherwise, Lord Wu would not have the courage to fight against the Minister of Revenue?" Mingyu told all the past.
"Since that said, the emperor has known our identity a long time ago, right? Then why did he still arrest Zixuan?" Pengcheng felt something was strange.
After hearing this, Mingyu couldn't help but cough twice, "Brother-in-law, it's fine if you know this, why bother me again? The emperor is a wise ruler, but he is also a man. If there are some things, you have to let him vent. Otherwise, how will the monarch and minister get along with each other in the future?"
Wen Han and Peng Cheng looked at each other, remembering that they had heard from the old man that Mr. Li had come to his house before and talked to Jinghan. Wen Han knew it and was shocked, thinking that Zixuan was really lucky. "Then, what reason should Zixuan release it in three days?"
"Is this? You'll know when you wait." Mingyu smiled, and said everything, but there was no meaning at all.
On the morning court of March 19th, the emperor sat on the hall. "A few days ago, I accidentally got a dream. In my dream, I thought the immortal told me that I still have great kindness. I woke up in the morning and thought it was a careful thought. As expected, this happened. I was ordered to go to the northeast the year before, but I was intercepted and killed, and almost broke into a wilderness. Fortunately, I met a farmer girl who took me home. Later, I devoted my whole family to the doctor and asked for medicine, which saved my life. Such great kindness must be repaid, but I was a little unsure. How should I repay this kindness? There was nothing big today, so I will discuss with you how to repay your kindness."
All the civil and military officials in the court were a little puzzled. Whether to repay the kindness or not is your business, the emperor, why do you still have to discuss it with everyone? As for the attack on the emperor two years ago, some close ministers knew about it. It took two years before the emperor mentioned it, why is this for?
One person came forward, "Seeing Your Majesty's will, the first woman to save the Lord. I don't know if this woman is married or not. If she is not married yet, Your Majesty can find a man of good character for her and give her some dowry to the woman. What about a woman? Marrying a good husband is the most important thing." It was not someone else's words, but Mingyu. He doesn't have to go to the morning court on weekdays, but today's day is special, so he must come.
"This woman has been engaged, but she has not yet married." The emperor replied.
"Then Your Majesty will give the woman a title and give her some dowry, so that she can get married with a grandmother. If his husband is a successful man, he can also be promoted for a while." Mingyu continued to give advice.
Some of the ministers next to them understood a little. The emperor and Prince Fu were singing a double act, but they didn't know what the purpose was. Some people were quick-witted and stood up at this moment, "Your Majesty, Prince Fu is very much, it's just a title, it just sounds nice. I'll give some gold, silver and jewelry to let the emperor's benefactor get married in a glorious manner. This is a great honor."
