Chapter 1061: Stop Making Trouble
Zhuang Xianhui is determined, proactive and courageous.
"Please allow me to enter the palace in your place, father."
"I am not afraid of death. I feel honored to sacrifice myself for Master Yan."
Zhuang Rui, a strong and brave man, volunteered to do the job.
"As a woman, you should stay home and take care of your husband and children. Third sister, please stay out of the court affairs."
"When the opportunity arises, Father, just retreat. I will lie dormant for you."
"When you act, you must prioritize the overall situation. It doesn't matter whether you save me or not."
Zhuang Wei remained calm and composed and stepped forward.
"I am the eldest brother. It is only right that I should be the one to risk my father's life in the enemy camp."
"My child is sincere and I pray that my father will grant me your blessing."
Fang Zhixuan was a man of great virtue and selflessness, and his words were often harsh.
"After all the fighting and pushing, no one can escape in the end. Don't lose the big picture for the small."
"Saving me and protecting me is not important. Ever since I faked my own death and practiced impersonating Shaodi, I haven't thought about escaping unscathed."
"My ancestors were respected not only for their wisdom and talent, but also for their loyalty and righteousness. If they could sacrifice their lives for the sake of justice, I can do the same."
"I have my own ideals, and I have no desire to live in comfort. I don't need you to meddle in my affairs and save my life."
Zhuang Xianhui pursed her lips.
"Father, there's no need to say such harsh words."
"Actually, you just feel sorry for us and don't want us to suffer."
"The child understands."
Fang Zhixuan glared and spoke angrily.
"You understand, so you should do it."
"Today, I summoned you to give you a plan, not to waste your words!"
"Not doing your job properly."
Zhuang Rui was dissatisfied and spoke frankly.
"My father's attempt to sever our family ties with such cold words is sheer wishful thinking."
"I am willing to enter the palace in your place. It is out of my heart and I am willing to do so. I will not change my mind because of your words."
Fang Zhixuan slammed the table in anger.
"I'm not here to meet you, but I'm not asking you to expose me!"
"Isn't that reasonable?"
Zhuang Wei looked solemn and respectful, and his words and actions were humble.
"Earlier, when Prince Dijin's mansion caught fire, father insisted on going there alone. I still feel incredibly guilty about it."
"This time, perhaps it's our farewell. I have no other wishes, but only seek father's permission to let me stay in the palace."
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhixuan gradually became submissive.
"You put it lightly."
"Yu'er is pregnant and needs you the most. How can you bear to abandon her?"
Zhuang Wei was in a dilemma.
"I……"
Zhuang Rui rose to the challenge and refuted it arrogantly.
"Father questioned my eldest brother, but he didn't think about Uncle Shao."
"How can you bear to ignore your brother?"
"You swore an oath to live and die together. Uncle Shao values loyalty to his friends. How will he bear the consequences of your sudden passing?"
After refuting, he immediately made a proposal.
"My wife is not pregnant, so I can enter the palace."
"To serve the Emperor Yan, Madam will definitely support me and be proud of me."
Zhuang Xianhui is persistent.
"It would be better for me to go."
"My two brothers got married not long ago, and suddenly experienced separation and death. My sister-in-law will definitely not be able to accept it."
"I have already agreed with my husband that it is very likely that he will die for his cause. He knows this well, and even though he is sad, he will not commit suicide for love."
She thought for a moment and then added.
"If he can't get over it, send him to Yuexi Mansion. My husband loves his sister, and seeing her grief, he will naturally put aside his sorrow and focus on comforting his third sister. Slowly, he will forget the pain of losing his wife."
Fang Zhixuan's expression became angry again.
"Stop messing around."
"Do you think that hiding in the palace is just a sacrifice of life for justice?"
"There are still many of our people in the enemy camp, such as Lord Lin's family and Lord Su's family. Who among you has the ability to devise a plan to rescue them?"
"Focus on your work and don't cause me any trouble."
"You are ordered by your father to escape when the time comes. You must not disobey. Do you understand me?"
Zhuang Wei and the other two pretended to agree, but in fact they were trying every possible means to prevent Fang Zhixuan from entering the palace, willing to die for their father.
Fang Zhixuan saw through their thoughts, and successfully entered the palace by fighting against the enemy with his own troops and blocking the water with earth.
Upon learning that Xu Mingqian had escaped from the enemy, Gu Yihe guessed that Fang Zhixuan would also help the Su and Song tribes escape from the enemy, so she paid special attention to the enemy's movements.
After receiving a little rumor and finding out that Fang Zhixuan had used a strategy of sowing discord, Gu Yihe quickly went to Su Ding's residence.
During lunch break, Su Ding was about to take a nap when he suddenly heard footsteps and turned to look.
"He'er?"
"You've trespassed into my residence again."
"I've taught you the rules hundreds of times, but when will you ever remember them?"
Gu Yihe looked helpless.
"I asked the servants, and they said my grandfather hadn't gone to bed yet, so it would be convenient for him to see me."
Su Ding was a little overwhelmed.
"Just a casual question? You should have someone inform them!"
Gu Yihe evaded the question.
"Okay, okay, next time, definitely next time."
Su Ding was angry.
"You always say that, but I don't believe you anymore."
Gu Yihe sat down nearby.
"Grandfather, please don't be upset. I have something important to report to you."
"Father..."
Su Ding could no longer tolerate the excessive rudeness.
"Wait a minute."
Gu Yihe was puzzled.
"what happened?"
Su Ding taught patiently.
"You must ask first. Only after my permission can you take a seat and speak."
Gu Yihe continued to prevaricate.
"Okay, okay, next time, next time."
Su Ding breathed a sigh of relief, feeling choked in his heart.
"You...you are simply outrageous."
Gu Yihe reported.
"The Emperor has fallen prey to the scheme of sowing discord and will soon issue an edict condemning the Su and Song clans and exterminating them."
Su Ding was surprised and couldn't believe it.
"what?!"
"Don't bully me."
"The Emperor, mindful of our old friendship, has treated me with great courtesy and generosity, never mistreating me."
"I don't harbor any ill intentions, so how could he possibly kill me?"
Gu Yihe was confident of victory and remained calm.
"This is the truth, Grandfather has to believe it."
"For now, your only option is to bring your people and surrender to King Di Jin to protect your family."
"Grandfather, are you sure you won't change your mind?"
Su Ding reached out and took the cloak from the hanger.
"I went to the palace to ask for an audience and ask the emperor's will."
Outside the door, Su Huajin heard this and couldn't wait to report it, so she quickly walked into the room.
"Father must not enter the palace!"
Gu Yihe gave a simple bow.
"I wish you the best of luck, mother."
Su Huajin helped her daughter to her feet immediately.
Su Ding's eyes were shocked.
"Empress Zhaorong? Why are you here outside the palace?"
Su Huajin is concise and to the point.
"The Emperor deliberately plotted to murder me. It was Prince Dijin who sent someone to protect me. He allowed me to return home and visit my beloved daughter on the pretext that He'er was seriously ill."
Su Ding was indignant.
"Why is Prince Di Jin so cruel? He cursed He'er to be seriously ill. He'er is clearly healthy and well."
Gu Yihe corrected.
"Don't get me wrong, Grandfather. This was my idea."
"I cursed myself to be seriously ill."
Su Ding's anger was half dissipated.
"What a bad idea! Don't say such things anymore."
Su Huajin got straight to the point.
"To this day, father still doesn't understand why the emperor's former ministers have fallen from grace or perished, while you alone remain safe and sound, holding a high position."
Su Ding's face darkened.
"You mean, it's because He'er is so talented?"
Su Huajin persuaded.
"Since father knows, why are you pretending to be ignorant?"
"Now, He'er has come to her senses and returned to Prince Dijin. The Emperor has long since stopped embracing you."
"A cold body, the end is set. Could it be that father is hoping that if he helps the emperor change the dynasty someday, the emperor will change his mind?"
