Xue Shao has never been a boring person who is in schadenfreude, but this time when he heard the news of Wu Chenghe, his eyebrows really fluttered.

"He's hanging?"

"Not yet." Princess Taiping said lightly, "His family reported the news to the palace, and my mother immediately sent the palace doctor to give first aid." Looking at that situation, you will definitely not die for a while. Otherwise, we and my wife will go and give him a ride? ”

Xue Shao suddenly smiled, "Isn't it too kind?" ”

"That's right, our husband and wife were originally kind people." Princess Taiping grinned and grabbed Xue Shao's elbow, "My in-laws are seriously ill and bedridden, what are we hesitating about?" Before it gets dark, let's go and visit, shall we? ”

"Reasonable, reasonable." Xue Shao smiled, "Then pack up a few supplements and hurry up!" ”

"Don't clean it up, I'll be ready for a long time." Princess Taiping happily pulled Xue Shao towards the carriage, "This kind of trivial matter, do you still need to ask the Great God Wei Tuo personally?" ”

Xue Shao pointed at Princess Taiping and laughed, "You are really bad." ”

"It's all the husband's training!"

In this way, the couple went to visit Wu Chenghe's illness with a heart of drinking joyful wine.

The Wei Palace, which was once dazzling, often had cars and horses like dragons and people coming and going, and almost every day, officials of all sizes rushed to this side. Today, it seems a little lonely.

Now the civil and military capitals of the Manchu Dynasty have already known that the King of Luling has returned, the dust has settled on the battle for succession, and Wu Chenghei is out. Although the power of the martial arts family will not suffer a devastating blow because of this, at this politically sensitive juncture, few people still dare to openly move to Wu Chenghe's mansion, otherwise they will be suspected of violating the taboo.

The desertion of the Wei Wang's mansion in front of him is in response to the sentence "people go to tea and cool".

The sudden visit of Xue Shao and his wife made Wu Chenghe's family feel a little "flattered".

Wu Chengsi was lying on the bed dying, his eyes were empty, and there were no masters. When he heard that his family had come to report that Xue Shao and his wife had come to visit, he was not only displeased, but his expression was even more sad.

"Here they are, here comes the cat crying mouse."

Having said that, Wu Chengsi still barely bothered to meet Xue Shao and his wife.

has been an official in the DPRK for so many years, and it is difficult to think of acting skills.

When Xue Shao and his wife came in, they all had a worried look on their faces. Xue Shao also sat on Wu Chengsi's couch, like a brother in a robe who shared life and death, held Wu Chengsi's hand tightly, and said with concern: "But I haven't seen him for a few days, how could King Wei be sick like this?" ”

Wu Chengsi could only sigh, "Birth, old age, sickness and death, what can people do?" ”

"King Wei still needs to be patient and take care of his body." Princess Taiping persuaded so much on her lips, but said in her heart: Eat less dog meat, and you won't suffer such a serious illness of retribution!

Wu Chengsi looked around, waved his hand and motioned for the imperial doctor and his wife and concubine to retreat, and only he and Xue Shao and his wife were left in the room.

"Taiwei Xue, Her Royal Highness the Princess, the heir has heard that the birds are dying and their songs are mourning, and the words of people are also good. Now in front of the bright people, they do not speak secret words. Wu Chengsi said with a gloomy expression, "The old feud between us has been backlogged for more than ten years. Now that I'm completely finished, I've really thrown in the towel. As long as you adults forgive me, a dying man, I am willing to kneel down for you, kowtow and admit your mistakes! ”

As he spoke, Wu Chengsi struggled to sit up.

"No, no." Xue Shao hurriedly helped him to lie down and said, "Since they are all in-laws, there is no need to see him like this." ”

Wu Chengsi smiled bitterly, "It seems that Taiwei Xue refuses to forgive me?" ”

"I can't say that." Princess Taiping said lightly, "Because we are husband and wife, we have never resented you." ”

"Really?" Wu Chengsi looked at Princess Taiping in surprise.

"It really can't be more real." Princess Taiping still said lightly, "At most, we hope that you can die sooner." ”

Wu Chengsi's eyes widened in astonishment.

"Hugh is talking nonsense." Xue Shao scolded lightly, then turned his face to look at Wu Chengsi with a smile, and said, "King Wei, don't listen to Taiping nonsense, she's just joking." ”

"This joke...... Well opened, well opened! Wu Chengsi coughed violently, his face was red, and his eyes were red.

"Don't do that. Restraint, restraint. Xue Shao patiently persuaded, "Don't be angry if you are sick, otherwise you will die quickly." If you die, will the marriage between our children be ruined? ”

"Isn't that ...... Ahem, ahem...... Caught in your hands? Wu Chengsi said while coughing violently.

Xue Shao stood up and shouted loudly to the outside world, "Imperial Doctor, Imperial Doctor!" ”

The two imperial doctors hurriedly ran in, helped Wu Chengsi left and right, and slapped and poured medicine, which finally made him stop coughing and pick it up in one breath.

"Get out!" Wu Chengsi once again beat his spirit and sent the imperial doctor out.

Xue Shao sat down on his sickbed again and asked patiently, "What else does King Wei command?" ”

"Although my life is short, the power of the martial arts family will not die out because of this." Wu Chengsi said, "You say, don't you? ”

"Probably." Xue Shao said this, and then made an expression of waiting for the following.

"No matter what feud we once had, when I die, will I be able to write it off?" Wu Chengji asked.

Xue Shao frowned and pondered for a moment, then nodded plausibly.

"Children are innocent." Wu Chengsi said, "If Taiwei Xue and Her Royal Highness the Princess can't let go of this feud, you might as well cancel this brown marriage contract while Wu Chengsi still has a breath now." I don't want to affect my children after I die. What do you think? ”

"Yes." Princess Taiping replied without hesitation.

Wu Chengsi ignored Princess Taiping, but kept looking at Xue Shao.

Xue Shao smiled indifferently, "Does King Wei want to remarry his daughter to the son of King Luling?" ”

Wu Chengsi's expression changed suddenly, and his eyes seemed to say-this can be fucking guessed by you?!

Xue Shao and his wife laughed at the same time.

"Don't keep sneering at me. Promise, or not, give a word, right? Wu Chengsi said.

"Since King Wei looks down on Xue Shao and Princess Taiping, he wants to climb the high branch of King Luling...... Yes, we will fulfill you. Xue Shao said, "But this brown marriage is not something you and I can say, and the God Emperor has to nod himself." ”

"In this world, is there anything that Taiwei Xue can't do?" Wu Chengsi smiled bitterly and sighed loudly, "I will take the initiative to make this request to the God Emperor." As long as Taiwei Xue nodded lightly when he arrived, this matter would be completed. ”

"Xue is willing to serve the King of Wei." Xue Shao said it lightly.

Wu Chengsi closed his eyes in pain. He thought to himself, "Xue is willing to serve the King of Wei", if he had heard it before, it would definitely be ten thousand times more beautiful than the most beautiful music in the world. But today it sounded like a ghostly sound from hell.

"I want to rest." Wu Chengsi said in an inaudible voice, "Taiwei Xue, Your Royal Highness the Princess, please forgive Chengsi for not being able to send off the guest in person......"

"No need, just lie down obediently!" Princess Taiping got up, took Xue Shao's arm and walked out. When she walked to the door, she didn't forget to say one more thing, "When you're dead, we'll give you incense again!" ”

"Ahem! …… Ahem, ahem, ahem, ......!! ”

After boarding the carriage home, Princess Taiping let out a long sigh of relief, "It's really happy, it's really completely relieved!" ”

"Taiping, when did you become such a poisonous snake?" Xue Shao stared at Princess Taiping with a fake stunned expression, and said with a sigh, "Scolding people without dirty words, every word is fatal!" ”

Princess Taiping snorted lightly and said seriously: "The mouth of the green bamboo snake, the needle on the wasp's tail." Neither is poisonous, the most poisonous to a woman's heart—isn't that your golden phrase? ”

Xue Shao was stunned, "Can this also be blamed on my head?" ”

"Of course." Princess Taiping took it for granted, "To this day, I have no tricks at all, all thanks to you!" ”

Xue Shao touched his chin in contemplation, "Then I still told you to be a noble lady when you go out, a housewife at home, and a on the bed...... Don't, stop, stop! I didn't say anything! ”

"I'm not deaf! -I don't have to go to bed, take it off, take it off!! ”

A few days later, the day of the imperial court's public holiday. Wu Zetian sent an envoy to invite Xue Shao and his wife to enter the palace together.

The couple knew in their hearts that it must be related to Wu Chenghe.

entered the palace, and sure enough, as Xue Shao and his wife expected, Wu Chengsi himself was also present. Obviously, he was still carried into the palace. Compared with the appearance of a few days ago, Wu Chenghe's illness is obviously heavier, the whole person is like a frosted eggplant, and even the eye circles are completely black.

Wu Chenghei would become like this, obviously it was definitely not what Wu Zetian wanted, so she was in a bad mood. After seeing Xue Shao and Princess Taiping, Wu Zetian didn't detour anymore and said bluntly: "Xue Shao, Taiping, I have an important matter to discuss with you husband and wife. It's about the marriage contract that was promised to Linyu at the beginning. ”

Xue Shao bowed his hand, "This matter is all up to Your Majesty." ”

Princess Taiping didn't make a sound, and she couldn't make a sound.

"Then I'm welcome." Wu Zetian's face was a little gloomy, he really saved all the politeness, and said bluntly, "When I promised the marriage before, I didn't think it through. Now that the King of Wei is seriously ill, I want to hold a wedding for his family, and this is how it is arranged. The king of Luling was going to marry a daughter to Wu Yanji, the eldest son of the king of Wei, and the king of Wei was going to marry his eldest daughter to Li Chongrun, the eldest son of the king of Luling. The two brown marriages will take place at the same time, but the eldest daughter of the king of Wei has already promised to marry your eldest son, Lin Yu. ”

"Your Majesty, this matter is easy to handle." Xue Shao said, "The minister will write down a piece of paper now and withdraw from this marriage." ”

Wu Chengsi hurriedly bowed his hand to worship, "Thank you Taiwei Xue for your righteousness!" ”

"Thank you, Chengyu." Wu Zetian also sighed, "This matter is my fault, and it is my injustice in going back on my word." I owe you a favor, and I will pay it back. ”

"Your Majesty doesn't have to mind such a trivial matter." Xue Shao said, "Please also ask Your Majesty to borrow pen and ink!" ”

The eunuch took the four treasures of the study, and Xue Shao wrote a letter of resignation with a, canceling the marriage contract between the eldest son Xue Linyu and the eldest daughter of Wu Chenghei.

At this moment, Princess Taiping's face quietly flashed a shallow, but from the depths of her soul.

Wu Zetian picked up the letter of resignation with undried ink, and was silent for a long time with a heavy expression before handing it to Wu Chenghe, "Take it, King Wei." ”

Wu Chengsi knelt on the ground and raised his hands up, and respectfully accepted the paperwork, as if he had obtained the Danshu iron coupon that ensured his life.

"Nephew, thank Your Majesty the Divine Emperor for your grace! …… Thank you, Mrs. Xue, and Her Royal Highness Princess Taiping! ”
