Chapter 22: Be the side husband of the palace

The exquisite delicacies of meat and vegetables on the table emitted aromas, but Han Qingbai just sat with his eyes averted, peaceful and obedient.

"The palace is not acting with anyone." Night red aya raised her hand to indicate, the waitress aside with a bowl of fish soup in front of her, and then hands handed a white jade spoon.

Hand holding a jade spoon in the fish soup slowly stirred two times, night red aya lowered her eyes and drank a mouthful of soup, opened his voice sounded distinctly cold: "All of you stand down."

"Yes." The maids gave their blessings and exited the dining hall in a row.

The only two people left in the hall, Han Qingbai only felt the air getting colder and colder, night red aya's presence around him formed a powerful pressure, so that he even breathe seems difficult a few points.

"This palace and cold Yu Jin has become an enemy, this you do not need to doubt, the heart of the unnecessary speculation."

Han Qingbai was slightly shaken, busy lowering his eyes and said: "Qingbai does not dare to speculate."

"The cold family will be in the hands of this palace ashes to ashes." Night red aya voice is light, but the exit is astonishing words, "as the Han family concubine son, your end should have been with the Han family destroyed. But this palace today gives you two ways, you can choose."

With the night red aya these words fall sound, cold Qingbai only feel the blood all over the body instantly freeze.

The Han family will be destroyed in smoke?

What does this mean?

Because of the assassination of Han Yu Jin, so night red aya want to anger the entire cold family?

But even though Han Qingbai does not like that family, but he still knows better than anyone else how powerful the Han family is in Tiandu - his father, the Han imperial historian is a first-class official, his aunt is the empress, and even the current empress dowager is related to the Han family ...

Night red aya want to overthrow the cold family, how is it possible?

"You have two choices now." Night red aya does not seem to care what he thought in his heart, not fast and coldly spoke, "one is to live and die with the cold family, together with the extinction; two is to stay in the palace house to protect themselves, but there are conditions."

Han Qingbai returned to his senses and forced himself to calm down.

He was originally a calm and rational person, and after this brief moment of unease, he quickly regained his usual composure and slowly spoke, "Your Highness, the Han family is not easily overthrown."

He did not want to know why Night Red Aya wanted to destroy the Han family.

Nor did he want to know why Han Yujin, whom Night Red Aya originally loved, wanted to assassinate the princess.

He is only a concubine son of the Han family, to put it bluntly, his status is just a little higher than that of a slave, but the days are actually not as good as those of a slave.

The power and noble things he has no right and do not want to know too much, at this time night red aya allowed him to sit with, does not mean that he can really with this noble and hold the power of the princess her highness equal sitting.

At least, the night red aya even if not necessarily can destroy the cold family, but if you want to get him a cold family concubine son, it is simply too easy, but a matter of words.

So Han Qingbai didn't try to resist her, nor would he be foolish enough to show the backbone of any literati in front of her.

The torture he had suffered at the hands of the Han family's matriarch all these years had long worn out his backbone. Instead of fighting against Night Red Aya, it would be better to calmly sort out the situation at hand.

"Not easily overturned?" Night red aya clip a piece of fish into the mouth, the action is calm but not much elegance of a lady, just calm, "the end of the cold family has been destined, no one can save them."

The tone of these words is very light, so light that people almost ignore the bloodthirsty and ruthless meaning.

But when Han Qingbai heard it, he was astonished.

After a moment of silence, he said, "As a son of the Han family, Qingbai should have proudly vowed to live and die with his family. But since his birth, Qingbai has received nothing but the family name and endless punishment and torture, so he has not yet learned to be grateful."

He said, his tone gradually calmed down, so calm that it was almost heartless: "If it is said that Qingbai deserves to die because he is a member of the Han family, then Qingbai has nothing to say; but since Your Highness has this question today, then Qingbai will answer Your Highness, Qingbai is not willing to live and die with those noble masters of the Han family."

The words "noble masters" came out of his mouth, full of irony, and also spoke of the hardships and pains of a commoner's son living in a powerful and noble family house.

Han Qingbai is not a person who likes to complain to God, as a concubine son, he can only accept all the injustice before he can change his fate.

But the other people treat him well or badly, everything he remembered in his heart. He is not a noble son of the family, never need much reputation to add, and certainly do not care to hypocritically show a virtue to repay the grievances of the heart.

He is just a mere mortal, never feel how great he is.

Night red aya did not say anything, slowly and methodically lowered his head and took a sip of soup.

"The conditions that Your Highness said, as long as Qingbai can do it, he will answer to it." Han Qingbai lowered his eyes, "If Qingbai can't do it, please also ask Your Highness to point out."

"To be the side husband of this palace."

What?

Han Qingbai was dumbfounded.

Night red aya put down the spoon, eyes clear cold look at him: "to be the side husband of this palace, this palace to protect your life, freedom of movement, the power and glory of this palace will give you, only one thing - never try to betray this palace, or you will end up miserable."

Han Qingbai was shaken.

Princess side husband?

To Han Qingbai, this was definitely an unfamiliar title.

With the Mu emperor in power, men were superior to women.

Even with a status like Princess Protector, it probably never occurred to anyone that she would have three husbands and four kings in the future.

Men can openly have three wives and four concubines, but never heard of any woman with two husbands - even the present Empress Dowager such a noble identity, but also only privately kept a few male pets ...

Of course, the Empress Dowager is in a different situation than the Princess.

Han Qingbai's shock did not come from what the status of sidekick meant to him, but from the information revealed in the words of the Princess Protector -

The princess side monarch, the same as the side concubine of the prince, of course, side concubine is only called better, but in reality is only a concubine.

There is a side monarch, naturally there is also the main monarch, the princess's main husband is the sidekick.

So the princess is going to take three husbands and four monarchs meaning?

I don't know how it happened, Han Qingbai at this time seems to vaguely perceive a sensitive and dangerous message, thinking of the night red aya just said "the end of the Han family has been predetermined", thinking of his side monarch status, the heart suddenly awe.

The air in the dining room is slightly cool, silence makes people feel uneasy.

The company's main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers, but it does not seem to know what information it is giving away, nor does it care what Han Qingbai is thinking.

After finishing the soup in front of her, she pushed the bowl away and got up to leave.

The first thing you need to do is to get up and see her off, but she is already far away.

He couldn't help but think that her highness's words were not about conferring with him, but only informing him that she was going to take him as a side husband ... but, why?

The identity of this Han family concubine son can play what role for the protector princess?
