Chapter 92

Su Li was almost overwhelmed by the sadness of pomegranate, so when she merged into Lu Yurong's body, her heart was still occupied by the sadness of pomegranate. She was like standing alone in the pouring rain, and her closest relatives were gone, helpless, and there was not even a direction to go.

"Mom, mom..."

A tender voice sounded beside her, and Su Li opened her eyes suddenly.

A little boy of four or five years old was lying on the head of her bed, looking at her with big black eyes worriedly: "Mom, why are you crying? Have you had nightmares?"

Su Li stared at the child in a daze. This is Brother Shan whom Pomegranate is thinking about!

Su Li and every flower demon are like sisters. Shan Ge'er is the son of Pomegranate, which is Su Li's younger generation. Shan Ge'er in Pomegranate's memory is so obedient and filial, and he fell from the wall because he misses his mother too much...

Su Li didn't want to recall the scene when the wet nurses discovered Shan Ge'er. She lifted Shan Ge'er and hugged her in her arms, allowing tears to roll down her face.

Shan Ge'er is the only concern for pomegranate. The ones who pomegranate think about Shan Ge'er until his death are the only ones. For pomegranate or Shan Ge'er, even if Su Li suffers some trouble in this life, she will protect Shan Ge'er so that he will not end up like that miserable ending at a young age.

"Mom, what's wrong with you?" Brother Shan was a little scared when he was hugged tightly by his mother. He suddenly cried so badly, something bad must have happened.

"Mom just had a dream and dreamed that Brother Shan was snatched away." Su Li wiped her tears and sat upright at Brother Shan in her arms.

Brother Shan finally knew why his mother was crying. He touched her red eyes and said with great firmness: "Don't be afraid of Mom, no one robs me. Even if someone robs me, I will run back to find Mom."

Su Li nodded with a smile.

Seeing that his mother smiled, Brother Shan remembered the purpose of running over, and immediately took his mother's hand and said, "Mom, the pomegranate flowers in the garden are blooming, I'll take you to see!"

Lu Yurong likes pomegranate flowers the most, and Shan Ge'er also knows it, so when the pomegranate flower tree in the Gu family garden grew buds, Shan Ge'er would run over to take a look every day, waiting to tell her mother the good news that the flowers were blooming.

Su Li was still thinking about how to deal with the pomegranate disaster.

If the time she came here was before Pomegranate married Gu Yanheng, the difficulty would be greatly reduced. As long as she didn't marry Gu Yanheng and remarried others, it would be feasible to marry Gu Yanheng and save his life. However, she was not lucky and actually returned to this time. Judging from Shan Ge'er's age, she knew that Gu Yanheng had died long ago, and Pomegranate might have been targeted by Emperor Mingzong.

As soon as Su Li analyzed this, Brother Shan said he would take her to see the pomegranate flowers.

Su Li didn't care at first, but when she got out of bed to comb her hair, Su Li's smile suddenly froze when she coaxed the child's smile on her lips.

After Lu Yurong entered the palace, she missed her son every day. The most memorable thing was the days when she had parted with Brother Shan, so Su Li remembered it very clearly. On the evening of the day when Lu Yurong and Brother Shan watched the pomegranate flowers together, Gu Zhen called Lu Yurong to the study and said that she would send her into the palace to give birth to a son for the old emperor.

Su Li couldn't help but look at the sky outside the window.

Did Tianting find that she and the Mother of Flower were cheating and deliberately let her go back to this point to make things difficult for her, or was it because Pomegranate’s biggest obsession was that she could not protect Shan Ge'er, so Shan Ge'er must exist, and Su Li woke up at this time?

But the reason is no longer important, what is important is what to do next.

After reading the pomegranate flowers, Shan Ge'er went to his husband's place to study. Su Li returned to her room and silently thought about her way out.

Lu Yurong's situation is a little similar to Shaoyao. They are both orphans and have no support from their parents. They are just a lowly person who sells their own life. They will not criticize Sheng Yuanqing for anything because of Sheng Yuanqing. The other is a serious official woman, the daughter-in-law married by the Gu family's Mingmaster. Gu Zhen is even a cabinet minister. For his own face, he must act secretly.

But Su Li wanted to get rid of Lu Yurong's predicament, which was even more difficult than that of Shaoyao.

First of all, there is no one in the Gu family. There is only a power-hungry father-in-law. Su Li has no conditions to convince Gu Zhen not to arrange for her to serve the disgusting old emperor. Again, now the old emperor is asking her to enter the palace, and the decision-making power is no longer with the Gu family. Gu Zhen is just using tricks to plan more rewards for the Gu family.

No matter how capable Su Li is, can she escape the joint control of a cabinet minister and the emperor?

It is inevitable to enter the palace, and Su Li can only plan what will happen after entering the palace.

At dusk, Gu Zhen came back from the palace and ordered someone to invite his second wife to his study.

Su Li was ready. She seemed to know nothing. She respectfully came to Gu Zhen and saluted. Su Li said in confusion: "What's the matter with my father looking for my daughter-in-law?"

Gu Zhen first asked the manager to continue.

When Su Li saw that the manager had closed the door, she became nervous, as if she was worried that she had done something wrong.

Gu Zhen was in a very complicated mood when he looked at such a daughter-in-law.

After his son died, his daughter-in-law was filial and respectful to him and his wife, and raised Shan Ge'er very well. If possible, Gu Zhen would not want his daughter-in-law to serve the emperor. But the slander of Yao Minzhong heard from somewhere that his daughter-in-law's two sisters had three sons. In order to invite favor, the emperor was exposed to the emperor. The emperor was nearly 60 years old and urgently needed a prince. Faced with such a great temptation, how could the emperor not be moved?

Gu Zhen thought that it was not because he wanted to be sorry for his daughter-in-law or his dead son, but because the emperor's order was hard to violate, and he could do nothing about it.

Comforting his conscience, Gu Zhen sighed and said what the emperor meant.

Su Li knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face: "Father, you can't treat me like this, you can't..."

As if he had been drained of all his strength, Su Li could no longer speak, and just shook her head while crying.

Gu Zhen turned his head and said with a serious expression: "Do you think I would make things difficult for you if I have a plan to refuse? Now in the situation in the palace, the emperor is eager to ask for a child, so he directly told me that you want you to enter the palace to serve me. I knelt down like you and begged the emperor to take back Cheng's life. I almost wrinkled my mouth. However, the emperor has made up his mind and I refuse to agree. He would rather resign. But the emperor said that it is useless to resign. If you don't give birth to a prince for him, he will want Brother Shan to disappear in this world!"

Gu Zhen's voice was even more swallowed, and he lowered his head as if wiping away his tears.

Su Li knew that he was pretending, so she might have applied chili peppers on her sleeves in advance.

After enough performances, Su Li sat on the ground without any hesitation, and murmured as she burst into tears: "Emperor, has the emperor really said that?"

Gu Zhen lowered his head and said helplessly: "That's right, Yurong, there's really nothing to do for his father. Brother Shan is Yanheng's only bloodline. If I encounter an accident because of me, Brother Shan will die in the future, what will I see Yanheng?"

When Su Li heard this, she burst into tears: "My father has no face to see his husband. What about me? If I enter the palace and see Yanheng after death, he will despise me to death!"

She covered her face and cried louder and louder.

Gu Zhen hurriedly said, "Don't do this. You are wronged by Brother Shan. Yanheng pity you so much. Knowing this, he will only feel sorry for you for being wronged. At most, he will resent my father's incompetence. He will definitely not despise you. Not only him, but also the ancestors of the Gu family will not despise you. You will always be the good daughter-in-law of the Gu family."

Su Li swallowed even more: "But I dislike myself."

Gu Zhen:...

Why is a woman so troublesome? How can he coax her?

Gu Zhen could only talk back and forth in the same words.

Su Li's twitching slowly calmed down, and she was thinking with her two red circles. Gu Zhen guessed that her daughter-in-law had finally figured it out and waited patiently.

Su Li finally thrust, wiped her tears, knelt down again, lowered her head and said to Gu Zhen: "Father, for Brother Shan, I am willing to enter the palace, but I have two conditions."

Gu Zhen's eyes twitched and said, "You said."

Su Li smiled bitterly and lowered her eyes and said, "I can serve the emperor, but I must be the daughter of the Lu family, not the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, Yanheng's wife, Yanheng is watching from the sky. I cannot be ashamed of him, so I beg my father to give me a letter of letter and Li first, and wait until the daughter-in-law restores her status as a daughter-in-law, and then ask the emperor to arrange a small choice to enter the palace as a beautiful daughter. My daughter-in-law has a innocent background and must be justified in everything she does, otherwise she will be ashamed of her parents' teachings."

Gu Zhen subconsciously resisted this condition.

According to his plan, no one will know about this, at least no one will have strong evidence to accuse him of selling his daughter-in-law for honor. His daughter-in-law may not be really pregnant with Long Zi when she enters the palace this time. Whether it is pregnant or not, after success or failure, he takes his daughter-in-law back. The daughter-in-law will continue to be the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, protecting the reputation of the Gu family, and the grandson will not hate him when he grows up.

If the daughter-in-law agreed to the conditions of her daughter-in-law, although there are various reasons to conceal her, the ministers and the people could see through his motives at a glance. The daughter-in-law is legitimate, where can he put his face?

"Yurong, you..."

"The second condition for daughter-in-law," Su Li interrupted him and continued to say his own, "Father should know that Brother Shan is the life of his daughter-in-law. If the daughter-in-law is not alive for a day, she will not be able to live without him. Brother Shan is in front of me, so I can serve the emperor with peace of mind. Therefore, the second condition for daughter-in-law is that Brother Shan must be raised by her daughter-in-law. If the daughter-in-law really gives birth to a prince, let Brother Shan be the companion for the prince, and then look back at the age of starting a family and starting a career."

Gu Zhen's face was getting dark. I didn't see it before. This daughter-in-law was so tough and had such a big tone! It was not enough to lose his face, and she still wanted to steal his grandson from him? If the grandson was kept in the palace until he became an adult, what kind of feelings did he have for the Gu family?

"The father responded to these two things and the daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law obediently entered the palace. If the father refused, the daughter-in-law would take Brother Shan to die and go to the underground to reunite with Yanheng." Su Li raised her head and said with determination.

Gu Zhen slapped the table with a bang and said angrily: "You dare to touch a hair from Brother Shan!"

Su Li said bitterly: "Did my father really think that if he was not forced to that point, would his daughter-in-law bear to hurt Brother Shan? Whether his daughter-in-law dares or not is all within the father's thoughts. It's not too early, and the father slowly thinks, and the daughter-in-law surrenders first. Brother Shan is still waiting for his daughter-in-law. He must tell him a story before he can fall asleep."

After saying that, Su Li kowtowed to Gu Zhen, stood up staggeringly, and left like a walking corpse.

Gu Zhen was so angry that he had a headache.

He didn't want to agree, but the Gu family's wealth was all about the daughter-in-law giving birth to a prince. The prince and Shan Ge'er's brotherhood were not allowed to cooperate with his daughter-in-law, so he could not even get the position of the chief minister of the cabinet.

In desperation, Gu Zhen went to discuss the matter with Mingzong.

Emperor Mingzong only wanted a son, but he didn't care no matter how the Gu family arranged it. As for reputation, he dared to kill fifteen royal brothers, nephews and nieces. In recent years, he arranged a large number of women of the age who had given birth to three children and had been to the palace. He had done all kinds of things that would leave behind a bad reputation. How could he care about the Gu family?

"Just as Lu said, my dear will arrange for her to leave the palace as soon as possible. I will select a new group of beautiful girls to enter the palace within ten days."

Mingzong immediately agreed with what Gu Zhen said, and he also fulfilled his promise, casually picked a mistake from the current cabinet chief, and carried Gu Zhen up.

Gu Zhen fulfilled a wish and thanked the emperor for his kindness and went out of the palace to do business.

Mingzong was also a little excited, rubbed his hands and asked Wei Rong, the eunuch who had been standing beside him: "Which palace do you think that after Lu entered the palace, I will arrange for her to live in?"

Wei Rong thought about it and smiled on his face, which was too handsome and feminine, and said: "Go back to the emperor, Lu brought his son to the palace, so it is not advisable to share the same palace with other concubines. At present, only Qiuyue Palace is empty in the harem."

Mingzong thought, "Qiuyue Palace? It's a bit far away, but you're right, just arrange it like this."
