emperor

The rain is dredging and the wind is sudden.

As soon as the emperor fell ill, the queen sent a message to the East Palace. The prince wanted to visit overnight, but the princess thought for a moment but said, "Your Highness, you can't go at this moment."

The crown prince frowned, and put down his half-worn shoes and socks. His reckless entry into the palace might have aroused suspicion, but His Majesty suddenly fell ill, and the crown prince was worried.

He stood up and walked around a few times, and said to the princess: "The news is coming out of the palace right now, and all the ministers must have known about it. According to A Niang's temper, the court must be dismissed early."

The concubine said: "Your Majesty's illness has been intermittent, and it doesn't get better after winter. Your Majesty loves you so much. If it's true, you should go to court early. Your Highness should make preparations early to stabilize the overall situation."

A country cannot be without a king for a day, and the sudden resignation of the emperor is inevitably thought-provoking.

The prince was in a hurry, and he slapped his palms, cursing himself for being confused. The princess' face was still gloomy, she hesitated for a moment and walked to the prince's side, and said, "Your Highness, do you still remember the whole story of the Biyun Palace case."

The prince's pupils shrank.

It was a night he will never forget for the rest of his life.

All the ministers and concubines who were involved in this matter were killed by the emperor one by one. It rained heavily and blood flowed like rivers.

He knelt on the ground and shivered, already knowing that he was caught in a conspiracy, involved in a situation that was prepared in advance, the emperor's voice was not loud, but extremely indifferent: "You contact the concubine, the minister, and you are in Biyun Palace again. , What did you find out in the end?"

There was loud thunder outside the window, and the concubine who was caught shouted the name of the prince sadly.

Your Majesty!Your Majesty!Never admit a thief as your father!

You carry a sea of ​​blood and deep hatred!

The one standing in front of you is your enemy!More than 100 lives in the Prince's Mansion!If your biological parents know...

The sword clanked and the screams died down.

The emperor's face was shrouded in the darkness projected by the candlelight, and his thin hands rested on the table, knocking lightly.

"I ask you, what did you find?"

"My son... my son..."

Don't dare to say it, how dare you say it, everything is too absurd.

The prince couldn't believe it, but at this point, he had found too many things, and he couldn't believe it even more, and he didn't dare not believe it.

The prince's face was pale, his voice was trembling, his lips were black and blue from the cold, he lowered his head and remained silent, as if he had already decided that he was doomed.

But the emperor didn't get angry for a long time, the prince heard a dull and suppressed cough, he couldn't help but raised his head to look at the emperor, but saw fatigue, disappointment, and hatred of iron and steel in that cold and stern face.

It wasn't the look of an emperor being offended, it just looked like a normal father who was heartbroken by an ignorant child.

The prince was stunned, and suddenly burst into tears. While crying, he knew himself, guessed everything, no longer hesitated, and had no reservations.

How did he receive a letter, how did he get the news, how did he become curious, and pursued step by step, finally he seemed to have guessed an extremely terrible secret. The prince couldn't help but wanted to know this secret for himself.

Rainy night, the sound of the wind, the mysterious courtier, the concubine who suffered a lot and had a deep hatred.

The meeting, the secret talk, the pressing step by step, he was so angry that he was in a mess, but he couldn't help but take a deeper look, and then he lost his mind and lost his mind due to the blow.

Afterwards, the Imperial Forest Army surrounded them. In a panic, they poured oil on the house and set fire to the house, trying to escape through the chaos.

A corner of the palace was burned, but no one escaped.

Because the holy car came in person.

The emperor was silent for a long time after hearing the prince's words. Amid the chilling sound of heavy rain, he said coldly: "You really dare to guess anything, dare to think about anything, and still have the courage to do it. It's because I'm too used to you." , so that you are used to not knowing the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth, and not knowing how to advance and retreat."

The emperor stood up, and his shadow was like a giant in the dark palace: "Go to Chonghua Garden to reflect on yourself. When will you wake up and know where you are wrong, and then come back. You can't think clearly for a day, and you are not allowed to leave Chonghua Garden for a day The gate of Huayuan."

The Biyun Palace case ended in a hurry, the prince was confined to Chonghua Garden, and the emperor fell seriously ill.

Except for the emperor and the prince, no one knew the reason, not even the princess.

The princess took a deep breath, and said seriously: "Your Highness, I understand, but this matter is quite suspicious, and the point of attack is to separate the relationship between the monarch and his ministers, father and son. The villain is secretly causing trouble, and I haven't found out for a long time. Tomorrow, Your Highness will enter the palace to serve the sick." , everything should be taken care of.”

The prince's face turned pale and turned cold, and he lowered his voice and said: "I understand, Yunniang! This matter must never be mentioned again, and it is the same between you and me."

In this way, the prince went to the palace to visit early in the morning, but on the way, he ran into Her Royal Highness who also got up early.

The two of them didn't look sideways at each other, and they seemed to be quite at odds.

"Sister." The prince greeted.

The princess ignored it.

Two years ago, the prince sided with the queen.

The prince was helpless, he and the princess were not born of the same mother, but they were fostered together under the queen's knees, and they depended on each other since they were young.

It's just that the two have different temperaments. The prince is pure and gentle, while the princess...is a bit cold and paranoid. A few years ago, she had a big fight with the queen about her birth mother, Wang Meiren.

The queen has not seen the princess for two years, and the mother and daughter are no longer as close as before.

In Yikun Palace, the Queen said that His Majesty will be taking medicine, and she is currently asleep. The Crown Prince and the Princess are visiting together, their eyes meet, and they are both worried.

After leaving the bedroom, the empress refused to allow the two of them to serve the sick, and the prince was pushed to the front to deal with the courtiers. The princess should have stayed, but the empress said bluntly, "Go back to the princess mansion if you have nothing to do. Worrying."

Princess:"……"

After driving away a group of people, the queen finally couldn't help but slumped her shoulders and rubbed her brows. The emperor fell asleep, but the sleep was too deep to wake up, which was worrying.

She remembered that the emperor usually went to the Lingyuan to listen to a ditty, and the queen's heart was always hanging when he didn't do anything left and right, so she simply called people over and forced the officials to play the flute non-stop.

After waiting for two days and one night, the emperor finally woke up.

After hearing this, the emperor said with an indescribable expression: "Hui Yue is still angry with the princess..."

Ruyi Lang nodded.

On the second day when the court resumed, the ministers excitedly urged the emperor to take the holy body as the most important thing, and he should rest for a few more days. Although the state affairs were complicated, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was wise and intelligent, and we ministers did not get paid for nothing.

The prince also advised the emperor to take care of him for a few days. The emperor looked relieved, but he had no intention of taking care of him. He and his courtiers dealt with things in an orderly manner, discussing the matter of suppressing bandits in the Southwest.

When he retired from the court, Taifu Xie had an audience with the emperor in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Xie Yi was standing outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, before the emperor summoned him, he vaguely heard coughing.

The thin snow outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation has not been cleared away, leaving a little bit covered with flowers and plants.

He remembered that the emperor said that he had counted plum blossoms in his spare time.

When the emperor said that, his expression was calm and gentle, which was somewhat similar to that day many years ago.

At that time, the emperor and his ministers were traveling together, but it was a spring day. The emperor had long black hair, a long gown, and ordinary people's attire. He looked more frail and slender. His pale and stern face was slightly raised, and he looked at a peach tree and said: "The peach blossoms in the suburbs are blooming so well."

Xie Yi also nodded. At that time, he had gained the emperor's trust and was always with him. The emperor turned his head and said: "I have stayed in the Northland for two years. There is a carol in the Northland. It is about the acacia tree and the acacia fruit. Peach Blossom."

Xie Yi was puzzled: "People in the North don't think peach blossoms are frivolous?"

The emperor put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "Peach trees are rarely seen in the bitter cold of the north, and I just think it blooms beautifully."

Xie Yi nodded, and the emperor said again: "The people in the North even made up a story about the acacia tree. I don't like it, but the meaning is always good. Whenever I want to plant an acacia tree."

Xie Yi said: "Your Majesty can plant one for your majesty."

Xie Yi saw the emperor smiled, the smile was faint, but his expression was somewhat lonely, he said: "Acacia trees are planted for lovers."

A lover planted an acacia tree, but it was a pity that the flowers were all gone and burned.

People say that obsession and entanglement are all affection and self-disturbance.

Xie Yi's eyes fell to those plum trees.

He sighed softly. He thought he had forgotten the past, but in fact he still remembered it, and it was even engraved in his heart. Xie Mingchen didn't know if he had any regrets, but in the end he did nothing wrong.

The door of the hall opened, and Ruyi Lang raised his hand to invite in.

Xie Yi walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation step by step. He had been here thousands of times, but he always felt that something was different today.

He quickly discovered the difference, it was the emperor's appearance, pale and stern, with an ordinary appearance, but he seemed to be holding a shell to maintain the demeanor that an emperor should have.

The emperor was like this many years ago, but his appearance was even worse, making people at a loss what to do.

The emperor is just good at endurance, not painless.

He has done ruthless things and said hurtful words, the emperor is like a caged animal, he can only cut his own way.

"Thank you Mingchen!"

The emperor opened his eyes, and his pale and thin cheeks trembled, like a crumbling mountain, supporting a skeleton that would not fall down, and the inside had already shrunk into a ball in pain.

He was crying, he didn't know that he was crying, but he didn't notice the pain on his face, he thought his expression was serious and calm.

"Xie Mingchen, I won't force you anymore." He said the first sentence, and then the second sentence: "I was wrong, I never fell in love with you, I was just joking."

The emperor wiped away the tears on his face, a little puzzled: "You don't have to do anything, I won't force you anymore, I just made a joke, I have a queen, a concubine, and the world, I am the emperor."

In the end, he became more and more calm, but soon, his calmness and indifference disappeared, all emotional disguises and emperor majesty faded away, he was not so tall, just a frail, thin man.

He couldn't help but bury his head in his palms.

He cried so subduedly, in a low voice, heartbroken.

It's just the most ordinary frustrated person who has been stripped of his self-esteem, humiliated his love, and then ruthlessly discarded.

Xie Yi watched silently, and said in his heart, let's go, the goal has been achieved.

He walked out step by step, saying over and over again that he could not turn back and stop.

He heard the person behind him shout: "Xie Mingchen."

Xie Yi paused slightly, and heard him say: "Do you remember, I told you about the acacia tree in the Northland."

The sound of footsteps gradually approached, thin fingers gently grasped Xie Yi's hand, leaving a concentric clasp, he said: "I won't wait for a long time, maybe I will forget one day, you stay."

The emperor said that he might forget it anytime soon, and he wouldn't wait long.
