"Wan Jianfeng, you are so brave. Who allowed you to talk to this general like this?" Ma Yuanzhi shouted sharply, and at the same time reached out and grabbed Wan Jianfeng's collar.

Of course Wan Jianfeng would not hold it back at this time, not to mention that this was still an important matter about his family. But just when he was about to say something, Ma Yuanzhi's hand on his collar let go, and the whole

The person fell backward.

Sun Jiabi hurried over to help Ma Yuanzhi, but she was a woman with limited strength. Not only could she not help Ma Yuanzhi, she also fell down.

When Ma Yuanzhi's followers saw this scene, of course they helped Ma Yuanzhi up. Ma Yuanzhi just fainted and woke up after being helped up. However, after all, he no longer had the same physical strength as before. The followers

Help him back to his mansion.

Wan Jianfeng and Taomi both looked at this scene with cold eyes. Wan Jianfeng didn't know why, but he had also heard that Ma Yuanzhi had been feeling unwell recently, so he thought it was related to this.

Naturally, Tao Mi is the one who understands this best. Unlike her throat-clotting drug when seeing blood, Shanyu's medicine is a kind of medicine that can make people weak, and slowly, they die.

And she also acted more discreetly to prevent Ma Yuanzhi from discovering that it had always been cold before. I am afraid that after today's trouble, even if he is not sick, he will be very angry, not to mention him.

It was not that healthy to begin with.

Taomi didn't expect that after she beat the edict away, what she got was not the edict to deal with it, but Li Yi.

During the day, after Ma Yuanzhi left, Wan Jianfeng entered the palace, but he did not go to plead guilty, but to refuse the marriage. He came back within an hour. Taomi knew that this matter was not that easy.

I just went there, but I didn't expect Li Yi to come to her in person, and judging from his appearance, he came secretly.

"Xianyang also brought you out this time."

"Why did you refuse the marriage?" Li Yi did not answer Taomi's question, but took a step closer to Taomi and asked.

Their appearance now seems to be the same as before, except that it was Taomi approaching Li Yi at that time, and now it is Li Yi who is Taomi after all, but it seems different. Taomi did not think about it when Li Yi approached Taomi.

Li Yi resisted so much and just stood there, looking at him leisurely.

"Do you need any more reason to refuse marriage?" Taomi asked without answering.

"You clearly said you wanted me to fall in love with you before, but now that I have done it, why do you refuse marriage again?" This was the first time that Li Yi revealed his feelings in front of Taomi. After saying it, he felt much more relaxed.

, he thought he liked a woman like Liu Sanhao, but not long ago he discovered that he was wrong. Although Liu Sanhao was good, he was too perfect, while Tao Mi was smart enough and also had the aura of fireworks.

This is the first time he has said this love out loud today. He used to think about it silently in his heart. He didn't dare to say it to his mother, and he never told anyone about it. Now it is the first time he said it to Taomi.

It feels really good.

But he didn't expect that Taomi would smile and never say anything again.

He could tell that this smile was not because he was happy, "What on earth are you thinking about?"

"Yes, I said before that I want you to fall in love with me, but that was just an exchange condition we agreed on. I will help you keep the secret, and you fall in love with me. Now your secret is no longer a secret, so you

You don’t have to meet my requirements anymore." Taomi shrugged and said.

To be honest, she also feels that she is a scumbag now, but what should she do? Let scumbag be a scumbag. Who made Li Yi not treat Wan Baoxian well in the first place?

Li Yi looked at Taomi blankly, what does this mean?

He became the emperor, and the secret was no longer a secret, so the deal was terminated. Is that what he meant? Even if he said that she fell in love with him now, she wouldn't need it anymore, right?

But why?

Does it have to do with identity?

Why would she rather want the love he had when he was a fool than the love he has now as an emperor?

"Don't you know what it means?" Taomi tilted her head and looked at Li Yi. Although she didn't want to believe it, she was a scumbag. Her purpose was to make Li Yi fall in love with her and punish Yao Jinling for her.

So let everything just go down like this, "Then I'll tell you."

"Because I will get married sooner or later. Instead of marrying someone else, it is better to find someone I am willing to marry. If I marry you, a stupid prince, according to my father's status and Ma Yuanzhi's status in the court, you

You definitely can't marry another woman, and you are the emperor now, the king of a country, will you let me be the queen? Even if you are willing to let me be the queen, will you not marry other women in the future? "

Taomi's two questions in succession left Li Yi speechless. It turned out that she... didn't love him.

He wanted her to like her just so he wouldn't marry someone else...that's all.

"Okay, I understand." Didn't he just want an answer to Taomi's refusal to marry? Now that he knows it, he can't refute it, so there is no need to dwell on it.

But after all... she still didn't love him.

He should have thought it through a long time ago, right? She never said she loved him from the beginning to the end, she just wanted him to fall in love with her. It was just a transaction between them. Everything was his own fault, but why was he so unwilling?

Are you willing?

In fact, Taomi's lie was simply flimsy. If she really didn't want to marry someone else, she could just ask Li Yi to marry her. Why go through all the trouble? Li Yi is just sad now, and

The self-respect and pride he should have as an emperor made him unable to think in this situation, so he just left.

Maybe one day he will remember that all of Taomi's actions were premeditated. Maybe she had planned it seven years ago.

Li Yi found out about it later, but now someone knows about it.

After dinner, Taomi originally wanted to sleep and rest, but Li Yi came. After Li Yi left, Taomi didn't go to bed. Instead, she sat down at the table and poured herself a cup of tea. It was very leisurely.

He said, "Gentleman Liang Shang, is it fun?"

Gao Xianyang, dressed in night clothes, jumped down from the beam and sat in front of Taomi, "It's not easy to be a gentleman on the beam, but senior sister, your affairs are more interesting."

Taomi put down the water glass, "You're right, my things are more interesting."

"Senior sister, you?" It's so strange that you don't refute him. What's going on?

"What's wrong with me?" Taomi turned the water glass in her hand, "Are you also interested in the matter between me and the emperor?"

"No!" How could it not be? It was such a big deal, but he also knew that he couldn't say anything was wrong now.

He knew that what Taomi said to Li Yi just now was a lie to him, so what was her real purpose? It couldn't be just for fun.

"Tell me, why are you here today?" The woman barged into the boudoir like this. If she hadn't been a martial arts expert, she wouldn't have been easily discovered.

"That's actually nothing. I heard that Ma Yuanzhi became ill at your house today?" After saying this, Gao Xianyang wanted to slap himself. What kind of bullshit is this?

Ma Yuanzhi is Taomi's uncle. Even if she understands the righteousness, she would not miss her family at all when her life is on the line. She is really stupid.

Sure enough, after she finished speaking, she saw Taomi's gloomy face, "I didn't mean to ask you, it's just..."

"It's just because I don't know how to say it." Taomi continued Gao Xianyang's words, "You are here to ask me why I refused to marry you, right?"

This is what happened today. If he really wanted to know about Ma Yuanzhi, it would be better to go to his mansion by himself. Therefore, he could only come to her because he refused to marry her.

matter.

As for why he wanted to ask her about her refusal to marry, he had to ask himself.

In the palace, Li Yi ascended the throne, the dynasty changed, and the Sang Gong Bureau in the harem also underwent great changes. The original Sang Gong Cai Zhongping was nominally sent out of the palace to retire, and Zhong Xuexia of the Si Zhi Fang became the new Sang Gong. In this way, the Sang Gong

The position of Secretary of the Fang became vacant and was taken over by Ruan Cuiyun. The original Sizhen Fang of Ruan Cuiyun was replaced by Liu Sanhao as Sizhen.

Liu Sanhao became Si Zhen, and Yao Jinling became Zhang Zhen. The two were originally sisters. Thinking about the current situation of superiors and subordinates, Yao Jinling would certainly feel uncomfortable in her heart, but Liu Sanhao did not notice Yao Jinling's discomfort at all.

, and also regard the relationship between the two as each other's sisters.

So the two of them had to be together regardless of anything. In order to behave more naturally, Yao Jinling was as close to Liu San as ever. That night they also slept on the same bed like good sisters, so what was the topic before going to bed?

Naturally, there are major events in the palace today.

Everyone had already regarded Taomi as the new master who was going to take over the harem. Even Empress Dowager Zheng had given orders to the Shang Palace Bureau to tailor new clothes, jewelry and everything else that could be used for the new master. However,

Unexpectedly, in the end, news came out that Taomi had kicked the proclaimer out of the general's mansion. How could this not surprise them.

"Sanhao, what do you think Miss Wan is thinking about? There were rumors before that she was going to be given to the late emperor as a concubine, but in the end it was nothing. And now, the emperor has already issued an order to accept her as a concubine.

The concubine actually refused. Not only did she refuse, but she also beat the proclaimer. I think she has a disease in her head."

"It can't be said that not everyone likes the life in the palace. She has been traveling around with Master Shanyu since she was a child. Of course she doesn't want to be restrained in the palace for the rest of her life." Liu Sanhao still has a lot to think about.

Yes, she had asked the emperor before if he liked Miss Wan, and the emperor also told her that he liked someone else. Now that the emperor had just ascended the throne, he couldn't wait to let Miss Wan into the palace, but Miss Wan refused.

The emperor must also be very sad.

Yao Jinling didn't think as much as Liu Sanhao thought. From her point of view, Taomi was just trying to take advantage of Qiao, "You also said that you don't want to be bound. How come we, the maids, didn't say that we didn't want to be bound? Then

It’s because we are originally bound. As long as we get a little benefit, we are already grateful. In the final analysis, it’s not because of our different origins. We are born with a low life, and we are not qualified to say that.”

Liu Sanhao sighed and said nothing more.

She knows that Jin Ling has never been convinced, but the most important thing for a person is to be content. She is now Sizhen, and her status in the Shang Gong Bureau is second only to Lord Shang Gong, and she is on an equal footing with the other leaders of the house. Isn't this right?

It's much better than before when she was a maid and had to bow to everyone she saw. What else could she be dissatisfied with?

Yao Jinling looked at the top of the bed curtain, not feeling sleepy at all. Sometimes she couldn't help thinking that if she were Wan Baoxian, she would not be a young lady like she is now. At the very least, she would be a concubine.

If you drink it, why do you have to walk around the world by yourself?

The news of Taomi's refusal to marry was suppressed by those who were interested. After three days, no one said anything. However, Empress Dowager Zheng, who had been quite critical of Taomi, faced the news that Ma Yuanzhi was seriously ill.

I don’t have any objections to Tao Mi at all.

Li Yi was her son. Of course she couldn't bear the thought of her son marrying a woman he didn't like just to confuse Ma Yuanzhi. He would definitely suffer in the future. Moreover, if she wasn't careful, Ma Yuanzhi would most likely control the court for himself.

Kill her son, just like killing the previous emperor.

By then, there will be no difference between her and Queen Mother Guo.

It was so good like this now. His son didn't have to marry Taomi. Taomi made Ma Yuanzhi fall ill so kindly that both problems were solved at once, killing two birds with one stone. It was too late for her to thank Taomi now.
