many worries

Jing Xu was not Emperor Yuande's first child, but he was his favorite.

The timing of his birth was very good. It happened that Emperor Yuande returned from a great defeat in Saibei. He was seriously injured and fell into a coma for a time.Jing Xu was born in such a chaotic time, he was born when the sun was rising, and after a while, Emperor Yuande woke up and gradually improved.

At that time, Feng Nannan was just a beauty. Although she tricked her elder sister to go to Longnan, she had the opportunity to enter the palace, but she was just a concubine with a humble status. The time when she entered the palace was when the emperor and empress were deeply in love. Accepting her was just to appease the Feng family and show their favor.She stayed indifferently for more than a year, and only had one favor in the palace, which was an accident after the dispute between Emperor Yuande and Empress Chen.It didn't take long before Emperor Yuande came to conquest in person. After Feng Nannan knew that she was pregnant, she carefully huddled in the small courtyard and did not report it until Xianhuai.

Empress Chen is not vicious and aggressive. Although she is sad, she still tells Feng Nannan to raise the baby. After all, it is useless to blame others. If it were not for Emperor Yuande himself, Feng Nannan would not have this child.

Later, when Feng Nannan gave birth to Jing Xu, she did not dare to pass out, fearing that Emperor Yuande would not be able to sleep like this, and she would have to spend her whole life alone in the cold courtyard of the deep palace with this little prince who was doomed to have a bleak future.

Until the little maid came in to announce the good news, saying that His Majesty woke up, just a quarter of an hour after Jing Xu was born.

Feng Nannan knew that he was finally about to change his luck.For Emperor Yuande, this child will be like a lucky star, heralding vitality.

She did have good luck.

In the Battle of Saibei, Emperor Yuande's commander made a mistake, and the army was defeated like a mountain. Old General Chen led the Chen family army to rescue Emperor Yuande from the chaotic army, but he didn't get any good.Emperor Yuande's original ambitions were all turned to ashes in this failure. He was deeply suspicious by nature, he could tolerate others when he was young and strong, and he was confident that he could win the important officials in the court, but now it is completely different.

For Feng Nannan, Jing Xu is like a lucky star. She has been favored all the way to the top, and later gave birth to Jing Hong and Jing Ning, but none of them can compare with Jing Xu.

Emperor Yuande also liked Jingxu for 10 minutes.

Feng Nannan poured a glass of fruit wine for Emperor Yuande, and whispered to Jingning to behave, but the little princess became very noisy, and kept pushing herself into Emperor Yuande's arms.

Emperor Yuande liked that she was young, cute, innocent and lively, and only listened to his own words, and casually persuaded her: "A'Ning is still young, and her rules are rigid, but she is not beautiful."

Jing Xu also followed the words of Emperor Yuande to persuade him.

Jing Hong clenched his fists and looked at the four people around him. They looked like a family, so what was he?

He is not convinced, he crawled out of a mother's belly, why is he not as good as his elder brother, the teacher, the food and clothing, the pampering of the father, the queen, and even in the future, that position , it is impossible for him to get involved.

And Feng Nannan has always cared about the throne, for Jing Xu.

When Jing Hong was sullen, Yixin had already stood aside to wait on him. Feng Nannan was very polite to him, and occasionally heard a few irrelevant news from him.

Xin Xin's eyelids drooped slightly, she looked at everything in front of her eyes, and sorted out her thoughts, not worrying about scarcity but unevenness, Concubine Feng Gui didn't even know about this, the biggest hidden danger was the brother's quarrel.But since she can train such a big little princess like this, why didn't she take care of Jing Hong.

But he was just thinking about it.

After dinner, Feng Nannan and the three children went back to the palace respectively, and Xinxin followed Emperor Yuande to the imperial study.The next day was Emperor Yuande's birthday, and all the officials paid homage, and it was difficult for him to say a word, urging Emperor Yuande to rest as soon as possible.

Emperor Yuande lowered his eyelids, and agreed unhurriedly. He was always so restrained in emotion, and even after being with him for so long, he had never seen him really sad once.

Maybe this is how you can become emperor.

Yi Xin stared at his old and skinny face, and wanted to kill him many times to avenge Chen Sang.

If Chen Sang could be a little bit happier about this and let go of his hatred and troubles, then Yixin would have done so long ago.

But Chen Sang won't.

What he wanted was not Emperor Yuande's life, but something else, something more difficult to get.

People grow up slowly and change slowly, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse, and Xin Xin's attitude towards those people also changes accordingly, whether they get closer or distant, are all different.

As far as symmetry is concerned, Chen Sang is an exception.No matter what he looks like, he is still the sweetheart he liked at the beginning.

After a long time, Emperor Yuande seemed to have noticed Xin Xin's gaze. He stopped writing, and suddenly asked: "Xing Xin, you have been with me for so long, and you are also good at pen and ink. I asked someone, General Xia Xueqing Xia, who recently lived in the palace. How do you feel?"

Yixin immediately knelt down and kowtowed, "The slave is an eunuch, the only thing he can do is to serve His Majesty, the servant doesn't know about the court affairs."

Emperor Yuande smiled incomprehensibly, "Oh? You are always smart, so don't be afraid. Others say that Lu Zhao is my shield and Xia Xueqing is my sword. What do you think?"

He couldn't help but answer.

Yi Xin bent over and knelt on the ground, eyelashes touching the cold floor tiles, he pursed his lips, and said softly: "General Xia, it's your Majesty holding a very sharp knife." He didn't want to He couldn't help but say this, and he had to say it so that Emperor Yuande could rest assured, not to himself, but to Xia Xueqing.

Xia Xueqing's achievements in such a smooth rise to the top are the result of killing people.It is said that in southern Xinjiang, not only those foreign tribes will be terrified when they hear Xia Xueqing's name, but even among the Han people, Xia Xueqing's name can make children who cry at night stop crying.

He was used to killing people, and he had to look at the dead body when rewarding meritorious deeds.The male warriors of the Strider tribe in southern Xinjiang would tattoo beasts on their ears when they were adults. When they attacked the Strider tribe, Xia Xueqing asked the soldiers to use their ears with the beast tattoos to rank them up. Two silvers, with a clearly marked price, those poor and crazy soldiers almost slaughtered the city.

When this matter spread to the imperial court, the civil servants whispered that Xia Xueqing had committed many crimes and would not end well sooner or later.

After saying this, she thought for a while, and finally said: "General Xia has nothing to rely on except His Majesty."

That was his sweetheart.When Xia Xueqing was still Chen Sang, she was loyal to the king and the country, determined to shroud the corpse in horse leather, took the lead in the battlefield, and fought the enemy bravely, but treated the captives preferentially, and never humiliated or destroyed them.

All of this has changed, when Xinxin was talking about Xia Xueqing, she had to bite the soft flesh next to her cheek tightly, and when the bite was broken, her mouth was filled with the smell of fresh blood.

Emperor Yuande seemed to be satisfied with what he heard, and he said: "Indeed. You are quite right."

He was born with few general talents, but he wanted to be an emperor through the ages. He almost lost his life when he failed in his personal conquest. He really hated the Chen family, it was the shame of his life.

But Xia Xueqing was very different. No matter how talented he was, he was only attached to himself.

Emperor Yuande was just satisfied with the school exam, he said: "You have been with me for a long time, Liang Changxi is getting old, I don't remember much about things, please, I can't take care of things, you are his apprentice, and you should take care of it in the future .”

Before, even though Liang Changxi had almost stepped back, he was still doing some things, and he didn't know what it was, but he knew that he couldn't get involved for the time being.Only now did he know that Emperor Yuande still had several teams of hidden guards, and the personal eunuch was also responsible for contacting the dark guards.

And today is the day when news from the Taiqing Palace is reported.

In the middle of the night, after finishing those things, when he walked out of the imperial study, his legs were weak and he almost knelt on the ground. Fortunately, he supported the door frame, and a little eunuch came up to help him graciously. walked over.

Before he left, he suddenly looked at the place where Liang Changxi was staying at night, and sighed wearily.

After today, there was no such person in the palace anymore, and it was unknown where Liang Changxi's bones would be buried.

And what about your own bones?Someday it will be buried in the soil, or die a terrible death and be devoured by wild dogs.

No one knows.

Taiqing Palace.

It was probably because he ate too much when it was approaching night, and Qiao Yu was so stretched out that he still felt a little uncomfortable at night. The appearance is somewhat similar.

Qiao Yu's long hair was unrestrained, scattered like a dark cloud, with countless strands, hanging down to make her skin whiter, and her exposed lips became redder, her eyes were slightly closed, and the sparkling light was exhausted. .

Jing Yan put down the book, put down the New Year's Eve who was nestled aside, brushed off the cat's fur, and picked up a thin quilt to cover Qiao Yu, but saw the fine sweat on his head, probably from the heat.

He was about to leave, but suddenly remembered that the medical book he had read before said that the temperature of the forehead was not accurate.

The back and armpits are where the body temperature is checked.

Jing Yan took a few steps closer, squatted down along the side of the bed, lifted Qiao Yu's thin shirt slightly, and stuck his fingertips in, it was warm and scalding hot, so hot that Jing Yan's hands trembled slightly .

The skin on Qiao Yu's back was extremely soft and delicate, without any sweat, and when he pressed down, he could feel the thin bones.

Jing Yan took out his hand, turned around, put the quilt up casually, and paused for a while before going out to blow out the lights.

Xiao Shishi came out from a dark corner and reported several important things, the most important of which was that Liang Changxi was replaced by Xinxin.

Jing Yan said casually: "Don't worry about it, just keep an eye on Jing Hong. Tomorrow is his birthday, so I have to give him a big gift. It's a lonely thought."

Even Xiao Shishi didn't know much about Jing Hong's affairs.

After he left, everything was quiet again.Jing Yan was supposed to go to his dormitory, but he stayed here anyway.

The window is half open and half closed, and there is cold moonlight outside, no stars, only some night watch lights, which belong to others.

Jing Yan could clearly see Qiao Yu on the bed, it was his light.

Unable to hold it back, he bent down, approached Qiao Yu's snow-white, warm face, and took a bite.

"Sweet."

Jing Yan's voice was very soft and gentle, like melted sugar water, but it was a pity that Qiao Yu didn't hear it.

He tasted it for a long time before he said firmly: "Now that I have tasted it, Xiaoyu is sweet."
