Dujie Patriarch is cannon fodder

In fact, most of the credit for stopping this palace change before it caused irreparable losses was due to the crown prince and Xiao Changqing.Xiao Changqing led the troops into the city quietly, and it was he who tried to temporarily imprison the family members of the officials attached to the wealthy Yu family so that they had to be controlled by others, which made the Yu family isolated and helpless at the last moment.

The queen did not make any resistance when she was arrested. She stared intently at Rong Qi who was standing next to Emperor Wen of Zhou, and smiled coldly: "Changxi, but I still remember what my mother told you before I came here. My mother told you, There are evildoers who have been rampant in the harem for more than [-] years, and the queen mother wants to punish the evildoers today and restore the harem to Qingming."

Rong Qi's eyes darkened slightly. When he entered the palace as the eldest princess, he had calculated the queen's actions, so he did not enter the palace unprepared.However, the meth that the queen gave him was much stronger than he expected, so he had to prepare the antidote before the poison spread.However, there is no rush to do it in a short while.

Seeing that the anxiety in Emperor Zhou Wen's eyes was about to overflow, the Empress suddenly laughed crazily. She laughed so hard that tears flowed down her face, pointing at Emperor Zhou Wen and said, "You really know, you know from the beginning to the end that Rong Qi is a man, you You are still protecting him, you are still protecting him, you are such a good father, a good father! Seeing your beloved child being raised as male or female, how do you feel, is it painful, is it very guilty? Hahaha"

Emperor Wen of Zhou said in a deep voice: "The empress is crazy, why don't you hurry up and detain her."

As soon as Emperor Zhou Wen's words fell, the guards directly blocked the Queen's mouth and took her down. Emperor Zhou Wen's indifferent eyes swept over the many ministers. Suddenly, the ministers who knew the shocking secret trembled and knelt down. Princess Xi killed them all.

Most of the courtiers of the wealthy Yu family were thrown into the sky prison, and there were quite a few "upright" Qingliu present. Since they had already learned that the eldest princess was Feng Feihuang, they wanted an explanation. Twins are related to the fortune of the country.

Emperor Wen of Zhou was so angry that he trembled all over. He raised his hand tremblingly, pointed at the minister who was going to confess, and said angrily: "Changxi is my daughter. I have raised and loved her for more than twenty years. Don't you know that he is the prince?" Are you still a princess? You don’t believe in me, but you actually believe in that rebellious queen, you are my good servants!"

The official historian said: "Your Majesty, the Tian family's highness has always been recorded in the annals of history, and so is the fourth highness."

Rong Qi was silent for a while, then stepped forward suddenly, and said: "Father, since the ministers want to find out the truth, I am willing to give them the truth, and I ask Father to do it."

Emperor Wen of Zhou said worriedly: "Qi'er"

Rong Yi pursed his lips tightly, staring at the ministers who persecuted Rong Qi, his eyes were full of anger. These people are actually as hateful as the Yu family. They said they wanted the truth, and they said they were for the sake of the purity of the royal blood. Make them nowhere to go.

Xiao Changqing is not worried, because in his heart, Rong Qi can accomplish anything.

Rong Qi said in a low voice: "I am willing to prove my identity for the ministers and give you an explanation. If I am a phoenix but not a phoenix, how will you who listen to the rumors explain to me?"

Several ministers who wanted the truth looked at each other for a while, and said in unison: "The humble ministers are willing to meet each other with their lives."

Emperor Wen of Zhou said bitterly: "Then it will be as you wish. If Zhen's Changxi is indeed a princess, you can find a place to end it yourself."

Because Rong Qi's true identity is still uncertain, the ones who followed Rong Qi into the side hall to verify their identity were naturally the maids of Gong'e, and after the maids of Gong'e came out of the side hall, all the results announced were Princess Changxi.

Although he didn't know what was going on, Rong Yi was still overjoyed, he squinted at the ministers who persecuted Rong Qi, and ridiculed with disdain on his face: "My lords, I heard clearly, our parents Xi is a real princess, but It's not the prince you just heard, in the next life you will have to get the exact evidence before you fight with your life, otherwise you will die too unjustly."

The faces of several ministers were pale. The news they got was that Princess Changxi was originally the twin brother of His Highness the Third Highness. How could it be a princess?

Two consecutive farces made Emperor Zhou Wen's already unhealed body even more tired. He handed over the finishing work to the three princes, and he took Rong Qi to the bedroom.However, before reaching the bedroom, the news from the Leng Palace made Emperor Zhou Wen spat out a mouthful of blood, and he seemed to be ten years older in an instant.Emperor Zhou Wen's face was pale and haggard, but he persisted to the cold palace with one breath.

The Imperial Concubine Chen has passed away.

But it turned out that the evildoer the queen spoke of was not only his fourth highness who had lived in the harem as a woman for more than [-] years, but also the imperial concubine who stole the dragon and turned the phoenix into a phoenix.

Emperor Wen of Zhou blocked everyone outside, and he walked in alone, staggering on his feet.The sound insulation of the cold palace was not good, Rong Qi and the palace guards could vaguely hear Emperor Zhou Wen's forbearance crying.It is said that ruthless is the emperor's family. In fact, emperors are also human beings, how can they be ruthless.

Rong Qi listened to Zhou Wendi's mournful and low-pitched weeping, and the ambiguity in his heart gradually became clear.The original owner has lived in the palace for more than ten years, why the identity has not been exposed, is it just because the concubine Chenhuang is protecting her well?Of course it was more than that, no matter how capable the concubine Chenhuang was, she was only a woman in the harem, her power could not spread to every corner of the palace, but Emperor Wen of Zhou could.

Perhaps, since the birth of the two twin princes, Emperor Wen of Zhou already knew about it.

Rong Qi lowered his eyelids slowly, in Emperor Zhou Wen's heart, he really loved the imperial concubine Chenhuang!Otherwise, how could he disobey the ancestral precepts and protect her two children, and why did he cry so sadly after she passed away?

There is a saying that a man does not flick his tears lightly, but he has not reached the point of sadness.

Rong Qi waved to the palace people behind him, telling them to go ahead first.

Rong Qi stood alone in front of the cold palace where Emperor Chen's noble concubine lived, his eyes were deep and inexplicable.

In the harem of the royal family, there are no more than women, from the queen, the concubine, to the nanny, which one is not a poor person?Whether it was remembered by the emperor or not, it entered the scarlet wall, and since then it has no chance of freedom.

Eunuch San Le came quietly and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, you are also tired today, let's go back and rest first, there is an old slave watching over here."

Rong Qi said slowly: "Elder-in-law, why do you think this is? Emperor Father obviously didn't show how much he liked Mother Concubine, why did he cry after Mother Concubine left?"

Eunuch San Le said: "Your Highness, Your Majesty expresses the word Chenshu."

"In this imperial palace, it is evil for a woman whether she is favored or ignored. The best protection is to keep her out of the crowd. Your Highness, don't blame your Majesty, he is in a dilemma, and it is not easy." San Le eunuch said kindly: "Your Highness, go back."

Rong Qi nodded slightly, took another deep look at the tattered palace gate, turned around and backed out.

Two days later, Emperor Wen of Zhou issued a decree to abolish the Empress of Yuan Dynasty, and pursue the imperial concubine Chen as Empress Shichen, who will be buried in the imperial mausoleum with the dignity of an empress.

On the third day of Empress Shichen's burial, the Empress Yu's family invited someone to invite the eldest princess, and Rong Qi tidied things up a little, and took them to the Tianlao to meet the Empress Dowager.

Half a month has passed, and the waste queen has long lost her former glory. She is wearing a dirty prison uniform and sitting in a dark cage with disheveled hair. If you look closely, there are still many dried bloodstains on her clothes.

Rong Qi stood quietly outside the dungeon, looking peacefully at the abandoned queen with his hands wrapped around his knees.Seeing Rong Qi after he was abolished, he was no longer as crazy as before, but the hatred in his eyes was still hard to get rid of.

Rong Qi and the queen were silent for a long time, and finally the abolished empress broke the silence between them, she said hoarsely: "Are you a man or a woman?"

Rong Qi said: "Didn't the Empress already know?"

Empress Dowager let out a miserable laugh: "Is that true! He even ignored the royal blood for the two children of Concubine Chen."

Rong Qi's lips pursed slightly, he understood what the queen meant.Emperor Wen of Zhou really couldn't afford to be ill after the imperial concubine left. Rong Qi also took the opportunity to call the pulse of Emperor Wen of Zhou. Emperor Wen of Zhou took medicine 20 years ago. It is difficult to conceive, even if you conceive by chance, it is difficult to give birth to a child.

Emperor Zhou Wen had only four children in his life, two of which were born in his expectation, and he was willing to have no other heirs for these two children he expected.Most of the women in the harem are more expensive than their mothers, and when they have children, their hearts will become wild, and they will inevitably extend their claws to his two beloved children.Therefore, on the one hand, he prevented the rest of the women in the harem from having children, and on the other hand, he focused on cultivating candidates for the next emperor.

Everyone said that Emperor Wen of Zhou was an emperor, a mediocre emperor, but a few people knew that when the throne was in his hands, the power of the wealthy family had already been deeply rooted, and his behavior, words and deeds were all under the control of the wealthy family.He was also ambitious when he was young, but even Ling Yun's ambition could not resist the cruelty of reality, so he could only forbear while dealing with the rich.

Rong Qi sighed incredulously, and he listened to the queen telling her story calmly.

In the Queen's story, she was also an innocent girl who was ignorant of the world, yearning for the harmony of a romantic couple. She could have married someone who could match her case, but the object of her love at first sight was the current emperor.Regardless of obstacles, she married the person she wanted, but ended up with no children and heirs, and her life ended in misery.

The queen's voice was steady and clear. She first had murderous intentions towards Rong Qi 20 years ago.That day, her newly pregnant fetus was in an unstable position. She sent someone to invite the imperial physician, but Rong Qi fell ill. The child was born due to lack of treatment in time.

Later, the incidents that made the queen want to kill Rong Qi happened one after another, but she endured them all until she learned the truth about her unborn baby.

At the moment when she learned the truth, the queen's face twisted for a moment, she stared at Rong Qi with scarlet eyes and said: "Since he left me without an heir for life, I will let his favorite child die badly. Isn't this fair? Rong Qi, why don't you die, why are you still alive?" The queen's tone slowly became crazy, she stood up from the weeds, ran to Rong Qi, shook the heavy wooden pillar vigorously, and roared Said: "Go to die, let's die together, die together..."

Rong Qi took two steps back and said, "Sorry, I don't want to die yet."

After finishing speaking, Rong Qi left the prison with a blank expression.

Passionate and hate since ancient times, good dreams are the easiest to wake up!

The queen is also a poor person, so what does that have to do with him?

In this seemingly resplendent and resplendent harem, there is no place to hide evil and evil people. Who doesn't have one or two pitiful stories among the people living in this vermilion palace wall?

Once inside the palace wall, all the joys and sorrows should be buried inside. Skills are high and skills are low, life and death are compared, but each depends on its ability, no one can blame the other.

The empress died in the Heavenly Prison, on the second day after the destruction of the wealthy Yu family.

Another half a month later, Emperor Wen of Zhou had been in bed for more than a month. He had no business, and ignored medicine and stone.Emperor Wen of Zhou woke up intermittently several times. During the period of sobriety, Emperor Wen of Zhou never summoned anyone, but left three imperial decrees.

The first decree: Marry Princess Changxi to Xiao Changqing, the king of Li County. During the filial piety, Princess Yunchang lived with the king of Li County in the frontier.

The second decree: the second prince is designated as the king of Hekang, and the land of Shunan is enfeoffed.The third prince, King Xiaoyao, enfeoffed Jianmen.

Without the emperor's will, the fief king is not allowed to return to Beijing without authorization.

The third decree: The new emperor ascended the throne, and the crown prince will inherit the throne.

The first emperor passed away, and the new emperor ascended the throne. There is no obstacle for the crown prince to step up to the high position this time. He took over the Chuanguo Yuxie from the Sanle eunuch, and was bowed by hundreds of officials three times for long live.

On the third day after the new emperor ascended the throne, Rong Qi and Xiao Changqing bid farewell to the imperial city and headed for the border.

Three years later, the eldest princess Xiaoman, Rong Qi and Xiao Changqing returned to the capital to get married under the auspices of the new emperor.

A few years ago, the eldest princess' wedding was full of guests from all directions, and now the eldest princess is also loved by thousands of people.

Even though the first emperor was no longer there, when the new emperor presided over the wedding, the princess's wedding was also decorated with red makeup for dozens of miles.

In another half month, the king of Li County reported that there were many border affairs and needed someone to take charge of the affairs. The new emperor allowed, and the king of Li County returned to the border with the eldest princess.

For the next 50 years, Rong Qi never returned to the imperial city. The border guards came and went countless times. They all knew that the prince had a princess wife, but few people had ever seen the princess.It is the doctor next to the prince. He is famous throughout the border for his superb medical skills and the prince's obedience to him.

The prince and the doctor have known each other for decades, and no one has ever seen them quarrel or blush.

When Xiao Changqing was dying, he vaguely remembered the past, looked at Rong Qi with cloudy eyes, and suddenly said: "I always feel that I have seen you somewhere, it seems to be true."

Rong Qi is getting old now, but the warmth in his eyes is like seeing him for the first time, making Xiao Changqing feel at ease, and he said: "Your Highness, I am pleased with you. If we still have a chance to meet, can you try to like her?" I?"

50 years of friendship, 50 years of companionship, but he only dared to express his heart when he was about to die, he is really a coward.

Xiao Changqing didn't hear Rong Qi's answer for a long time, and his heart was a little shy, but he still tried his best to roll his eyes to look at him more. He pulled his lips and smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. Next time, I will accompany you for another 50 years."

Rong Qi watched Xiao Changqing close his eyes, and there was still a little smile on his lips, as if being by his side was his greatest happiness.

As a mortal, after experiencing birth, old age, sickness and death, Rong Qi finally understood how heavy the 50 years that Xiao Changqing said seemed to be an understatement. afterlife.

What kind of courage does it take to love someone for the rest of your life?

Rong Qi pulled the corners of his lips with difficulty, he tilted his head slightly, and suppressed all the sadness. He sat beside Xiao Changqing, stretched out his hand to caress Xiao Changqing's wrinkled old cheek, and said slowly: "In the next life, if you If you can still recognize me, so what if you love you once?"

Rong Qi lay beside Xiao Changqing, slowly closed his eyes, and slowly lost his breath.

Life is not at the same time and death is at the same time.
