Is the program okay?

Chapter 13 Procedures Chapter 13

--------------------

On the birthday of the first queen, she will rest for a day.This is the rule established by Emperor Jing, and it is also the rule that he has been implementing for 11 years.

11 years ago, when Emperor Jing proposed this rule, some officials claimed that they were moved by the deep love between Emperor Jing and the late empress, and suggested that the whole country should pay homage to the late empress on the day of her death, but Emperor Jing threw away the memorial on the spot.

"I miss my dead wife, what should I do with others."

The ministers were silent.

On the day of the death, Wen Hao entered the palace early, fasted together with Emperor Jing and Wenxi, and put incense on the tablet of Empress Wen.

Emperor Jing stood aside, watching a pair of sons and daughters kneeling and prostrating to his deceased wife, with neither sadness nor joy on his face.

After saluting, Wen Xi and Wen Hao retreated, and the female officer also retreated after setting up the chairs.

When only Emperor Jing was left in the hall, he went to the chair and sat down, staring at the portrait of his dead wife in the distance, silent.

Emperor Jing was good at painting. The portrait of Empress Wen in the Hall of Eternal Life was made by Emperor Jing when Empress Wen was alive. After Empress Wen passed away, Emperor Jing painted it every year, so that the characters in the portraits are still vivid.

After an unknown amount of time, Wenxi walked slowly into the Hall of Eternal Life, and saw Emperor Jing looking at the portrait, as if he was having a silent conversation with the person in the portrait.

Wenxi felt that it was a space that he could not get involved in. Just as he was about to exit, he heard Emperor Jing say: "Come here, and accompany your mother with me."

Wenxi walked over obediently, knelt down beside Emperor Jing, leaned his head lightly on Emperor Jing's lap, and looked at the portrait of Empress Wen, "Father and Emperor have not told us about Empress Mother in recent years."

Emperor Jing stroked her hair, "You have all grown up, and you no longer need me to help you remember your mother."

"The emperor father and the queen mother are in harmony with each other, respecting each other as guests, which is enviable."

Emperor Jing was silent for a while before he said: "Yes, if it weren't for you and Wen Hao who need someone to take care of you at a young age, I will almost follow your mother in that year."

Wenxi couldn't help but startled.

If Emperor Jing hadn't said it himself today, no one would believe that the king of a country is so affectionate.

Emperor Jing gently stroked Wenxi's hair on the temples, and sighed in a low voice, "Xi'er, sometimes I can't tell the difference between loving and not getting it, and getting it and losing it, which one is more painful."

Wenxi felt great pain in his heart, and changed from kneeling to kneeling and saluting, and said in a deep voice, "Father, I beg you to let go of the procedure."

Emperor Jing looked down at his beloved pearl begging him to spare his greatest enemy on the anniversary of his deceased wife's death, and felt a little funny. "Why?"

Wenxi's heart was beating like a drum, but his forehead was still pressed against the ground, and he said word by word: "The heart of a son is to the program, just like the heart of the father and the queen to the mother."

Emperor Jing looked at the portrait of Empress Wen, as if he was confiding, and he seemed to be complaining, "After knowing your intentions, I have always regretted agreeing to come to your coming-of-age ceremony as an alliance envoy. I have been a monarch for so many years. I have got things big and small in the empire, but I really don't understand the mind of my little daughter."

"My son... feel ashamed."

"Seeing that Cheng Lang missed his life, this sentence has been widely circulated in the alliance, how beautiful it is." Emperor Jing sighed quietly, "This sentence can happen to any girl, but it should not happen to you, Xi Son."

"My son also knows it's wrong, but," Wen Xi tried his best to calm down, but still couldn't hide his sobs, "Father, I don't know the origin of the love, it goes deeper and deeper!"

The white candle in front of the portrait of Empress Wen was burning quietly, and the Hall of Eternal Life was empty, only the mournful cry of Princess Wenxi echoed.

Wen Xi cried uncontrollably, "Father and Empress have a deep love for the mother, how could he not understand the two words that are most difficult to control in the world, one is heart and the other is love. It is difficult for sons and ministers to control themselves, and their heart for procedures is just like father's." The emperor's heart for the mother and queen, but he dare not expect to have a relationship with the emperor, just ask his father to save his life, he is now seriously injured, and the medicine is useless, if you can't stop the father's hegemony, you will die Be kind and let him go!"

Compared to Wenxi's sobbing, Emperor Jing just said softly: "Xi'er, if you dare to compare the procedure with your mother's, today I will ask the ancestors' family law in front of your mother's."

Wenxi couldn't figure out what Emperor Jing meant for a while, and didn't know how to respond, so he heard him say leisurely: "Xi'er, how much do you know about programs?"

Wen Xi tried his best to calm his breath, and slowly replied: "Father, I only know a little bit. Jie Jie is the second son of the Cheng family in Jiang'an District of the League, and the younger brother of the current district chief of Jiang'an District. He joined the army at the age of 14. , was promoted to admiral in an exceptional manner, but he had no territory and no troops directly under him, only the Xuedihua squad composed of his guards, with a full staff of 30."

"Well, this is all well-known news." Emperor Jing nodded with satisfaction, "Then you know that Jie Jie is only the adopted son of the Cheng family and the brother-in-law of the Cheng family. A little beggar who doesn’t have a name, wanders around begging, and can only survive by eating a hundred kinds of food?”

Wenxi couldn't help opening his eyes wide, "My son... I don't know."

Emperor Jing straightened his sleeves, "Now that you know it, you understand how humiliating it is for your mother to compare the program with your mother. A wandering beggar with unknown origins is not worthy of being compared with your mother, and of course he is not worthy of it." The imperial princess's admiration."

Wenxi raised his head abruptly, and met Emperor Jing's contemptuous eyes, "Father, I love his people, not his background! It's not his choice whether he is a beggar or a famous family, it has nothing to do with him. What are you doing!"

Emperor Jing looked at her for a few seconds, and said: "Xi'er, I think it's more painful to lose after you get it. If you still can't figure it out, you can think about it in front of your mother." After finishing speaking, he got up and walked away.

Wenxi knelt on the spot with a look of despair.

--------------------

It was nightfall when Wenxi returned from the Hall of Eternal Life to her own Haiyan Hall, and the female official notified Wen Hao to see her.

Wen Hao has already set up a mansion outside the palace, and it is against the rules to stay in the palace at such a time.

Wenxi looked sleepy, and didn't care about these details, he just said: "What is the important thing you are talking about?"

Wen Hao didn't seem to hear the impatience in Wenxi's words, and asked with concern: "Sister Huang's eyes are red and swollen, have you been crying?"

Wen Xi, who hadn't put on any makeup, turned her body slightly, and said, "Don't worry about it, it's getting late, let's talk about your business."

Wen Hao didn't speak, and looked around at the female officers waiting around. Wenxi understood and waved his hand, and the female officers stepped back one by one, leaving only the siblings in the main hall.

"Sister Huang is so sad, how can my younger brother not mind? I don't know if it is the queen mother who is crying for her, or..." Wen Hao snapped open the folding fan in his hand to cover his mouth and nose, and said softly, "Procedure?"

Wen Xi laughed suddenly after being shocked, the more he laughed, the louder he was, but the colder his heart became.

Why, is it everyone knows that she loves the program now?Is everyone going to use this matter to persecute her?It's ridiculous for the first heir to do her part.

It was the first time for Wen Hao to see Wenxi behave in such a manner, and he just found it amusing.

Wenxi finally had enough of laughing, and asked in a cold voice, "Tell me, the purpose of your coming."

Wen Hao put away the folding fan and smiled slightly, "I just want to say that you are not worthy to be the first heir."

Although Su Yan is out of etiquette, Wenxi still maintains the dignified and noble posture of the first heir, "Whether I am worthy or not, Wen Hao, it is not your turn to judge me, recognize your own identity."

Wen Hao shook his head lightly, "I just hate your superior look, I've always hated it."

Wenxi showed a standard smile, "Thank you for your frankness, but you must first climb to my height before you are qualified to judge me."

Facing the sarcasm in Wenxi's words, Wen Hao didn't take it seriously at all, "You don't have to try to provoke me, I don't have time to argue with you."

Wenxi didn't know which song he was going to sing, so he had to remain unchanged to cope with all changes.

Wen Hao said to himself: "I came today to make a deal with you."

Wenxi waited for his next words.

Wen Hao smiled, "I can keep the program alive."

Wenxi's heart skipped a beat, and he clenched his hands unconsciously, "... conditions?"

"You renounce your inheritance."

Wenxi sneered, "Once I lose my status as an heir, how can you guarantee that the program will not die? Do you really think that I am a fool who lost his mind just because he admired others?"

Wen Hao tapped the palm of his hand with a fan, lowered his eyes and smiled lightly, "Sister Huang is naturally not so superficial. It's just the first time I've seen you so panicked in so many years. It can be seen that although the procedure will not make you lose your mind, But he does mean a lot to you."

Wen Xi turned cold, "What do you want to say?"

Wen Hao looked at her leisurely, "You don't have to be so guarded against me. If I wanted to say it, then the story of Princess Wenxi's love for the general of the enemy country has already spread. It is impossible for you to sit here so dignifiedly now." Talk to me."

Wenxi didn't appreciate it, "So?"

Therefore, the smile on Wen Hao's lips deepened, and I am very happy to see that you finally look like a living person.

Wen Xi frowned, she didn't know what words she said could make Wen Hao smile so happily.

"Forget it, those are not important." Wen Hao changed a more comfortable posture and looked at Wen Xi, "Let's get down to business."

"Appreciate further details."

Wen Hao began to talk about business, "Wenxi, you have to think clearly, you have no other choice but me. Everything you have now is because you are the first princess and the first heir to the throne. Is it you that the people love? No , what they love is the imperial power that you symbolize. It doesn't matter who the heir is, what matters is whether the person who sits on the throne can bring prosperity and peace to the people. Once the news of your love for the program spreads, a collaborator Pressing down on the hat can overturn all the honor and image you have accumulated over the past 24 years, do you believe it? When the world does not know the truth, your attention to the procedure and righteousness can be used as a fig leaf to block it. When the world knows the truth, Your Royal Highness, How will you present yourself?"

Wen Xi pursed her lips tightly after listening to him, unable to refute.

She believes that she believes in every word he said more than Wen Hao, which is why she can keep suppressing her feelings.Her love for the program is a disaster for everyone, including herself.
