Atypical empress relationship

You can do whatever you want, anyway, you have already offended this person, and saying nothing will help the matter.

In this silence, the queen mother probably knew that she would not be able to wait for an answer. His eyes were a little dim, and his voice was a little low, as if he was very disappointed, so he sighed for a long time, and said very slowly.

"Huaiyu, I don't know who said such news to deceive your ears. I have never heard of Bengong's reading since you were young. But you must learn to distinguish in the future. If you tell Bengong like this again If it is shocking, this palace will also be chilled."

Hearing what he said, Huai Yu didn't seem to intend to embarrass herself, so she immediately said with a wink that it's worth it, and her attitude was very sincere.

The Empress Dowager's expression softened a lot, and she sighed again

"Today, I might as well tell you some sincere words. There were some misunderstandings between Bengong and Lingtang in the early years and it was too late to explain. Lingtang felt that Bengong had done something bad, and he was unwilling to meet with Bengong. It is always a pity to find a chance to settle the feud with Lingtang.

Now that you are an adult, and you will be considered my son in the future, Huaiyu, I don’t want to have any quarrel with you. I am already very old and cannot stand the charge of being at odds with the new emperor. I hope you understand this To be able to have a heart-to-heart relationship with Bengong, it is only by living up to such a fate. "

Such words seem to be very heart-to-heart, completely opposite to Huaiyu's expected embarrassing and mean attitude.

However, while Huaiyu was surprised, the last voice in his heart was still doubtful, which came from the result of his mother's subtle influence.

Therefore, he was grateful for the Queen Mother's attitude, but also took a little precaution. He said that it would be better to leave, and turned around, and the Queen Mother's voice sounded again.

"If you see the Holy Majesty, please tell me that I am tired and want to leave the palace to practice. Help me find a temple."

Huaiyu was greatly surprised when he said such words. He stopped and was about to answer something when he heard the Queen Mother say

"I said it myself, don't worry, just go."

After speaking, Huaiyu heard a slight sound, and then the sound of slow and steady footsteps, gradually moving away, going to the inner room.

The eunuch who had been standing by the side with his head bowed, also raised his head at this moment, gave Huaiyu a habitual flattering smile, and then said

"Young master, please leave with your servants."

Huai Yu blinked, didn't say anything, just followed him out of the Queen Mother's palace, walked away and looked back, seeing the brightness in the darkness, like an illusion embedded in the palace.

So gorgeous, and far away from the world.

Huaiyu watched, feeling a little lonely and sad for no reason. He sniffed, turned around and left, heading for the Evergreen Palace.

The Evergreen Hall is the place where the coffins of the royal family have been stored in the past dynasties. The eternal lamp in the hall is said to be made of mermaid flesh. It is said that you can hear the mermaid's voice when there is a strong wind, and you can smell the sea if you ask carefully. smell.

When Huaiyu arrived, he didn't smell the sea. He could only smell a faint rancid smell mixed with sweat. Although it was very light, it was enough to make people feel uncomfortable. At this time, I regretted my overly sensitive nose.

Seeing that no one else responded, Huaiyu also pretended not to smell anything. He followed the eunuch to the Evergreen Hall, took a three-foot filial cloth, put it on his clothes, and entered the main hall. Under the watchful eyes of the eunuchs, court ladies and royal officials who were guarding the spirit, they burned three sticks of incense for the late emperor.

After he got up, he wanted to look for his brother, but he didn't see his figure. When he looked around calmly, he looked at King Qingyang who was kneeling on the ground. Huaiyu subconsciously smiled, and then I belatedly remembered that this was the mourning hall of the royal family, so I immediately restrained my expression.King Qingyang stood up, made a gesture towards him to go out, and went out of the hall first, Huaiyu hesitated for a while, but followed him out.

After going out, I saw King Qingyang waiting under the tree at the door, Huaiyu stopped three steps away from him, the two of them were quiet for a while, as if a little embarrassed, Zhao Zheng asked softly

"Are you here to see Brother Wang?"

Huai Yu immediately shook his head. He is too sensitive to Zhao Ji now. When he heard someone mention it, it seemed as if he wanted to say that they spent that night together, so now Huai Yu also denied it without hesitation.

"No, come to look for my brother, Li Huaijin, have you seen him?"

"It doesn't make any difference."

Zhao Zheng smiled at him, and when he heard that he didn't come here specifically to find Zhao Ji, he felt a little relaxed, so he said

"They are together, I will take you there."

The corner of Huaiyu's eyes twitched, she didn't know what the sign was, she just subconsciously said

"No need, tell me the location—"

Zhao Zheng interrupted him, and pretended to be relaxed and said with a smile

"You're not familiar with Evergreen Palace. It's not good to run around and go somewhere you shouldn't be. Are you still afraid that I will do something bad to you?"

Huai Yu laughed dumbfounded when he heard the last word. He felt that such words were actually a bit nonsense, and also felt that perhaps his own thinking was simple. The palace is not a home, and he can go to any place, so he nodded and said:

"What are you talking about, please trouble King Qingyang to lead the way."

Zhao Zheng hummed, then took off his filial piety outside, and the little eunuch standing under the eaves, watching, ran over with small steps, took the layered white cloth, and returned to his original position.

Then Zhao Zheng went straight to a road, Huai Yu followed silently, looked at the back in front of him, wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere, but didn't know what to say, as if there was no common language Yes, and only met two or three times, so what can I say.

However, this King Qingyang is more talkative than he imagined—or gentle, but he can't say that you are very good, and it would be too perfunctory.

So he was silent all the way, turned seven or eight small roads, and saw the servants of the Prince's Mansion standing in front of an arched door from a distance, Zhao Zheng stopped, paused, and then turned his head and said to Huaiyu

"It's not convenient for me to go there, it's just ahead, you go by yourself."

Huai Yu thanked him dryly, and was about to pass him, when he heard Zhao Zheng hey again, so he stopped, looked over suspiciously, and asked him what else he needed.

Zhao Zheng originally wanted to ask that it was really you who was with Brother Wang that night, and also wanted to ask if you really wanted to be with Brother Wang willingly—but he couldn’t ask a single question, because he didn’t know what identity he should take. Or ask for some reason.

This is a relationship and marriage contract that does not require his participation, and has nothing to do with him. Although it is a bit sad and ridiculous to say, it is an indisputable fact.

But at this moment, Zhao Zheng looked at the person in front of him, seeing him wrapped in thick and fluffy clothes, only showing a face like snow, with such an innocent expression——he really couldn't bear to ask.

He never thought that Zhao Ji would fall in love with anyone, so if it wasn't a happy marriage, it would be embarrassing to ask.

So Zhao Zheng coughed, said it was nothing, stopped, and said

take care.

He heard that after Dikun and Tiangan are combined, the body will become weaker and more dependent on combining with him, so he said this.

Even though it was weird to say it, he still said it. Speaking of which, he hadn't met this person a few times, so why did he take it seriously? Zhao Zheng felt vaguely in his heart that it was not good for him, but his emotions were so illusory. Things are not something you can control if you want to.

☆, that new emperor, talking nonsense

There is a saying in this world that falling flowers have feelings, but flowing water has no meaning.

There is also a saying that playing the piano with a cow is futile.

Zhao Zheng's concern, in Huai Yu's ears, was actually confusing words.First, Huaiyu feels that he is in good health, and there is nothing to be concerned about. Second, he has never seen someone suddenly ask someone to guarantee his health for no reason. delicate.

The point is, they just met each other by chance, but perhaps it was because of the cold weather that the King of Qingyang expressed concern verbally. Huaiyu had heard his father say such words of concern to the soldiers below many times. After thinking about it, I thought that Zhao Zheng had the same reason, so he didn't take it to heart at this time, he only thought that he had the same meaning with his father, to show the prince's concern for his courtiers.

So Huai Yu nodded, agreed very perfunctorily, and then confirmed that King Qingyang had nothing else to do, then turned around and walked quickly to the palace gate.

Zhao Zheng's fingers moved and then stopped. He had no more reasons for people to stay. He kept watching the door Li Huaiyu entered and disappeared from his sight before he left feeling disappointed.

In fact, Zhao Zheng is not a timid or shy person. When he was at Qingyangguan, he could spend an afternoon chatting with any old man or child he had never met before, but he couldn't talk with Huaiyu.

Could it be that he is not acclimatized to the environment - but he is originally from Kyoto.

Zhao Zheng returned to the Evergreen Palace, but found that the eunuch in his mother's harem was still there. Seeing that he had returned, he kowtowed and said in that thin, piercing voice:

"Your Majesty, please come over and see the prince."

Zhao Zheng stopped in his tracks, his breath was filled with cold breath, he suddenly wondered if his behavior just now was out of bounds, he had been away from the capital for too long, and he forgot whether his younger brother could walk with his elder brother's fiancée.

He also thought that the eunuch would definitely report such a thing to the Queen Mother—at that moment, Zhao Zheng felt an inexplicable killing intent, but it was only a moment.

Killing people in the palace is stupid.

Zhao Zheng took a deep breath and felt that he couldn't breathe. The capital is like a dense net, so he must be careful in every move.

He waved his hand and said weakly

"Let's go."

If he really reprimanded himself, let him reprimand him. His father must have died, and he must have felt very uncomfortable. It is right for a son to let his mother vent his frustrations.

But having said that, Huaiyu couldn't feel Zhao Zheng's friendship at all. He was thinking about what kind of reaction he should make when facing Zhao Jida. After all, he had only slept together before. It seemed impossible to pretend that nothing existed things.

But if there is any change—it seems that there is no change. Huaiyu is a slow person, too slow for many things, or does not know the far-reaching influence, but this cannot be blamed on him, after all, not everyone Everyone can predict a storm when they see a butterfly flapping its wings.

And the most important thing is that no one has ever told him how serious it is that Dikun slept with someone. Although he usually reads some books, it is of no educational significance to him if he scratches his boots. I couldn't be more familiar with Zhao Zheng, so he didn't have a big reaction.

Therefore, on the one hand, I feel that I will sleep when I sleep, so what; on the other hand, I feel that what will happen if I sleep, after all, it is not sleeping in the ordinary sense.

At that moment, Huaiyu entered the remote courtyard with such contradictory feelings. There were only a few bright yellow palace lanterns hanging on high places to illuminate the road. He walked along the gravel road in the dark night, and when he saw Before the elder brother and Zhao Ji, they heard the voice of their conversation.

Hearing the words and phrases they were talking about to delay the marriage date or directly terminate the engagement, Huaiyu's breath was stagnant, and for some reason, she suddenly felt a little flustered in her heart, so the footsteps walking forward became very light, and then she heard her brother the sound of

"After you and Yu'er get married, I will set off for the border again, and I will send you out at least, so I can rest assured that Yu'er has not been wronged, and His Highness can't bully him; besides, Jinran is now in Jidu Xiangbieyuan, and he refuses to let him go." When I come back to live in the mansion, although I don’t understand what’s going on, the safety is always worrying. Your Highness is so distracted, I always feel that the matter is not very simple, but I don’t have much time in the capital, so I can’t investigate it myself.”

Zhao Ji snorted, and took the conversation indifferently.

"Isn't this as obvious as the white jade plate on the case? This person is not from back then. Huaijin, you are so soft-hearted, I am really worried-you also have a soft-hearted attitude towards the enemy on the battlefield. Feelings, so show mercy."

Huaijin was silent for a moment, then laughed out loud, and said with arrogance

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured that I will never throw an inch of sand in the country!"

The sound startled a tree of flying birds, which flew high in the sky with a clatter, and fell in all directions.

This is the first time he called Zhao Jisheng, and he is so proficient. Zhao Ji raised his eyes to see him swearing, full of confidence, and couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled. matter.

Huaiyu stopped in front of the pavilion, looking through the dim palace lanterns, seeing the high-spirited appearance of those two people, suddenly she didn't know how to get past——The mood at this moment is ridiculous, because she felt that it was very difficult to go there. The presence of a destructive atmosphere.

It's just that Huai Yu hadn't been thinking wildly for a long time, Zhao Ji had already seen him by mistake, so he raised the corner of his mouth, waved to him, and said to him very amiably

"Madam is here."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Did you hear something terrible just now?Huaiyu was in a trance, feeling something was wrong with his ears.

"Hey!"

After a strange silence, it was Huai Jin who let out a loud cry, feigning anger and saying,

"You guys can only get married after a year, why are you taking advantage now!"

"Can't help it."

Zhao Ji's gaze flicked over Huai Jin's face, showing no sign of involuntary emotion.Then he beckoned to Huaiyu, and repeated that sentence again, with a clearer tone

"Ma'am, are you still here?"

"lady???"

Huai Yu stretched out her hand and pointed at herself with a distorted face, completely disturbed by his clear wife's call, and felt very awkward.

He walked into the pavilion in such an awkward and complicated mood, stared at Zhao Ji, as if he wanted to see a hole in him, and said helplessly

"What nonsense are you talking about."

"What nonsense is this?"

Zhao Ji looked at him, walked over, stretched out his hand and gently brushed off the fallen leaves on Huaiyu's shoulders, straightened his temple hair for him, and said in a brisk, non-stop tone

"If madam is shy, there's no need to show such a gaffe. The love between two people is not something that one should be ashamed to say. If madam is honest with elder brother, wouldn't Huai Jin feel uncomfortable?"

☆, the advance and retreat, the dilemma

Huai Yu could understand every word he said, but couldn't understand a single word when put together. Even Zhao Ji, who said these words, became too unfamiliar.

What is shy, what is sexual, what is this adjective?Saying it is simply a matter of laughing out loud.Huai Yu deeply suspected that he was insane because of his father's sudden death, or that he was under too much pressure to plan for the people of the world, so he didn't choose what to say.

When he opened his mouth, he was about to laugh three times before inviting the imperial physician to treat the newly promoted emperor. He was really afraid that Zhao Ji would go crazy.

And Huai Jin who was at the side had already looked the two people up and down in front of him a few times, he felt strange in his heart, he always felt that when the younger brother and the emperor were together, they didn't seem to have a very compatible atmosphere, but on the other hand It is enough to show that the two people really have a deep relationship.

Just remembering what his father said about the emperor not liking his younger brother, Huai Jin hesitated in his heart, but on the face he was still very calm, and said jokingly

"I don't even know when the two of you secretly plotted against Chen Cang."

"do not you know?"

Zhao Ji glanced at him, then lowered his head again, the shadow of the branches hit his face, making it impossible for people to see his expression clearly, and he heard nonsense that his face did not change and his heart beat:

"You Huaijin and I walked together from time to time. You really don't understand the reason why."

"..."

Huaiyu felt as if he was suffocated when he heard such words, and he thought to himself, is he going to express his feelings to his brother—is it better for him to avoid it a little?

When Huaiyu was in chaos, Huaijin immediately remembered the occasions that they would meet in the mornings at random for so many years, and she wondered why they met Zhao Ji so frequently, so this was the reason. Huai Jin immediately showed a look of sudden realization, and said something unexpected

"So that's the case—it's just that Yu'er didn't say anything, which made me and my parents and elders worry about these days—I won't say much about it now, since you have figured it out, and now the big things are settled, and the etiquette will be completed in a few years. , I don’t have to worry about Yu’er being bullied when I’m not here.”

Huai Yu frowned—he felt that today was really too unbelievable, and everyone's words and deeds were far beyond his expectations.

It was as if Zhao Ji had been caught by a ghost. He was silent since Huai Jin spoke, and only sighed lightly at the end.

Huai Yu even looked at the two people in front of him with an indescribable expression. He didn't know why Zhao Ji said these confusing and upside-down words. He also didn't know what the brother was pretending to be so biased by Zhao Ji. .

However, when Huai Yu doubted his life, he looked at Zhao Ji unexpectedly, the gentle gaze made Huai Yu tremble, and he felt a chill in an instant.

Zhao Ji, who is as gentle as water, is really terrifying.

Huai Yu immediately looked away, not looking at Zhao Ji, it would be too bad to be stared at by him.

It's just that Huai Jin has no doubts about him, he absolutely believes in Zhao Ji - whether in public or private, Zhao Ji can be regarded as a top-ranking person.

Yu Gong and Zhao Ji are also clear in handling political affairs, notarized properly, and they value themselves very much; It would be better to be with Zhao Ji than to give Yu to other people who can't be at ease-there are no regulations in this dynasty that require the emperor to choose concubines to enrich the harem.

It's just another matter of the psychological feelings of the listener.

But having said that, when they came to this side courtyard, they were just taking a break and discussing some border issues, they didn't stay here for a long time, and when it came to this point, there was actually nothing to say.

If you say more, it will backfire, or reveal some flaws, and make the atmosphere awkward. Although Li Huaijin is famous for his martial arts, he is also an extremely smart person, but he is not very emotionally enlightened.

Many people who are good at martial arts in this world seem to be lacking emotionally. There is no way to do this. If you don't suffer, you will never be enlightened.

After chatting for a few words, Huaiyu and the others walked back together. The road was already covered with snow, a vast expanse of whiteness, dotted with dead leaves that were not completely covered, and perhaps they would never be covered— — because the snow has stopped.

It was clear that there were still very fast snowflakes falling in the rustle in the morning, but now, it has completely cleared up, but it seems to be a little colder.

It was not too early, when Huai Jin entered the Evergreen Hall to say goodbye to the ministers, Huai Yu stood at the door, Zhao Ji stood beside him, there was a silence between the two, and then Zhao Ji spoke

"You have something to say."

Not a question, but a readiness to listen.

Huaiyu had been with him for so many years, so he naturally knew about it, so he hummed immediately, and said in a very soft voice, but also a little distressed.

"I went to see the Empress Dowager and his old man—he asked me to convey to you that he wants to go out of the palace to practice in the temple."

Huaiyu said something simply, to avoid the stupid mistake he made with the queen mother, he tried to speak in a nonchalant tone - there was another part of anxiety in his heart, fearing that it was another trap.

Hearing this, Zhao Ji was silent for a long time. He looked at the ginkgo tree in the courtyard, at the white snow on the ground, and at the painted pillars in the carved gallery. Finally, he smiled, turned his head to look at Huaiyu, and said something windy. If horses and cows are irrelevant

"If I want three thousand in the harem in the future, how should you deal with yourself, can you live for three days?"

Huaiyu ahh, reacted and coughed a few times as if being choked, and thought it was funny

"My lord, don't say such ridiculous things. If you want all the earth and earth in the world to fill this vast palace, it has nothing to do with me. Maybe someone wants to pay attention to me, don't I Can't you spread your wings and fly?"

"I'm afraid that my wings will be bound, and I won't be able to fly."

Zhao Ji turned to him, stretched out his hand to tuck up his messy temple hair, and said softly in his ear

"Huaiyu, believe it or not, the whole world will know that I am a person who hates the Queen Mother because of the decree that I want the Queen Mother to leave the palace to practice together?"

Huai Yu froze on the spot, he didn't think about why this happened at all, and the cause and effect sounded like there was no connection at all, but he was used to obedience, and then followed Zhao Ji's words and said

"Then don't say it, just pretend that you have never heard of it."

☆, that family love is difficult to understand

After Huai Yu finished speaking, Zhao Ji continued:

"Then everyone knows that I disregarded the empress dowager's wishes and wanted to imprison him in the harem—the empress dowager had some blue-faced confidants who were angry about his entry into the palace in her early years, and she was a celebrity in the world, but her words about Shenjing, But disgusting."

Huaiyu: ...

Huai Yu always felt a little messy in the wind, looked at Zhao Ji in disbelief, and frowned again, this time it was a sincere question

"Are you thinking too much?"

How many years ago old love can also threaten you?This is also too unreliable.

"What do you think too much?"

Huai Jin's voice sounded from behind. He had already greeted the others and came out without other matters.

He happened to hear Huai Yu's words, so he asked casually, Zhao Ji shook his head without changing his face, and directly passed his words, and said

"It's late, you go back first."

"Alright."

Huai Jin stretched out her hand, hesitated for a moment, then patted his shoulder, and said earnestly

"Your Highness, take good care of yourself and don't be too sad. In the future, I will never have the opportunity to call you Your Highness again."

Zhao Ji hummed very coldly, then turned and went into the Evergreen Palace, leaving only a back view for them, making people watch from a distance, feeling that the emperor is really lonely.

Huai Yu thought for a while, followed her brother back home, lay on the bed, thought wildly for a while, and then suddenly woke up, Zhao Ji, how could he feel lonely, now that he has won the world, no one can restrain him , Don't you just do what you want, and you need your own sympathy?

As soon as he thought that he had really thought about him for an hour, he fell asleep very depressed.

But in another place, someone has not slept yet.

Bai Yujing in the sky, five cities on the twelfth floor.

For many years, no one has called his name, Bai Yujing. Since he entered the palace and became the queen, only a few people dared to call him. Now many years have passed, the late emperor is gone, and only a few people are gone.

Queen Mother, this is really a word full of oldness and powerlessness.

Bai Yujing sat in front of the window, copying the Heart Sutra. His Majesty had an incurable disease before, so he began to believe in Buddhism and copy the scriptures. He copied the Buddhist scriptures for five years and ate vegetarian food for five years, but he still couldn't keep the late emperor's life, so he also Not believing in Buddhism anymore, it just became a habit, which makes people feel calm.

When Zhao Zheng arrived at Linxian Palace, he raised his heart in his throat. Every time he saw his mother, he felt very nervous, or rather, very tired.

He wanted to visit his mother as a son, but his mother always didn't like him having such a mentality.

But today seems to be different. There are not many servants in Linxian Palace. He went all the way to the inner side of the bedroom. After seeing his mother for the first time, he was wearing casual clothes and a half-worn cloak. The ribbon is tied behind the back, fluttering like a rootless blade of grass.

His expression was not as cold and heartless as usual.

After the big eunuch ran over to report in Xiaobu, he asked Zhao Zheng to go forward, and took a cushion for him to put beside the queen mother's desk, and then left.

His mother didn't speak, and Zhao Zheng didn't know what to say. He knelt aside, watched his mother bow her head to write, and saw his temples seemed to have star-white hair, and then suddenly remembered that her mother was no longer a young man.

He saw Di Kun at his mother's age in Qingyangguan, all of them were bloated or weak, but his mother was always calm and self-restraining, and she behaved very well-behaved. Leaving no traces, Di Kun's nature of tending to be weak has not been reflected in him at all.

The Empress Dowager seems never to be tired and tired, not to mention Dikun, there are very few such people in Tiangan.

A gust of wind blew in and it was icy cold. The Queen Mother couldn't help covering her nose and coughing lightly. Zhao Zheng sighed inwardly, stood up, closed the open window tightly, and sat back in his original position before speaking.

"Mother, please pay attention to your health. It's cold at night in winter. You should rest early. My son has gone to Qingyang Pass, so there is little chance to close the window for you."

Bai Yujing stopped the pen in his hand, it was a volume of Heart Sutra that had been copied, the handwriting was concise and elegant, well-regulated, no one could find anything wrong with it, once the grand master joked that his handwriting might be taken out for the younger generation to copy , is enough to show the profound skill.

It's just that there is no emotion.

Bai Yujing raised his eyes, looked at his son through the candlelight, and said lightly

"Feeling tired?"

"..."

Zhao Zheng was a little surprised. He wasn't sure what his mother meant, so he replied

"Fortunately."

Fortunately, this is the most perfunctory word.

Bai Yujing was a little tired.

Facing his son, he always felt that he was not good enough. Although the secret letters every year showed that his youngest son had some military talents, but he was too upright—this was not a good thing.

He suddenly wanted to care about the child just now, but he was very tired after only asking one question.

It's actually very boring to ask such a question, if you ask it knowingly - Bai Yujing put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Zhao Zheng quickly got up and helped organize the things, Bai Yujing suddenly said

"Let's celebrate the New Year in Shenjing this year, there is no need to go back to Qingyang Pass."

The voice was not loud, but it was enough to surprise Zhao Zheng, and even had the effect of deafening. He was stunned for a moment, and then looked at his mother in shock.

For the first time in so many years, his mother asked him to stay in Shenjing for the New Year.

Why?

Because I finally remembered that I was my own son, or because my father died, I felt empty and alone.

Zhao Zheng didn't dare to speculate, but he couldn't help doubting himself, but he didn't answer for a long time, Bai Yujing frowned and said

"Don't want to?"

He just casually said that if Zhao Zheng felt that Qingyang was closed, he would go back immediately so as not to be an eyesore.

The next moment Zhao Zheng put down the thing in his hand and said

"The son is just too excited... please forgive me, the queen mother."

……

What is there to forgive...

Am I someone who likes to blame people?

Bai Yujing stood up, turned around and walked to the inner room, and said without looking back

"Let's rest in Linxian Palace tonight, there is no need to go back to the mansion."

It was windy and cold at night... I didn't say this sentence after all.

"Son, save it."

Looking at his mother's back, Zhao Zheng always felt that tonight's mother seemed to be a different person, as if... she had become much weaker.

After all, usually the queen mother would never say such a thing, it really is weird.

However, when he was lying on the bed, thinking of his mother just outside the door, but feeling very stable, Zhao Zheng opened his eyes, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a little wronged.

So many years, so many years, mother.

You just remembered me, but I don't have the slightest resentment towards you. It's a weak thing to say. In the military camp these years, I have seen too many people who felt resentful because their parents were neglected. In comparison, I feel very emotional because of being close once, isn't it very weak.

☆, that day, boring

For the next few days, my father was always away from home, busy with everyone, and when it came to the day of Zhao Ji's enthronement ceremony, the house was even more deserted.

The mother and father had a cold war, and they simply didn't want to talk to the two of them as sons.

On the day when Zhao Ji ascended the throne, his father and elder brother both went to the palace to handle matters early. Huai Yu had no official position, and although he bore the name of a future queen, he had not really become an emperor. Queen, and he himself doesn't really want to go out, he just basks in the sun at home, wringing his fingers, counting the few days left before the Chinese New Year.

After thinking about it for a long time, I felt very bored, wandered around in the yard, walked to the garden, looked at the pool of crushed ice, and shouted out of boredom

"Dayu."

A figure appeared beside Sou, scaring Huaiyu a lot, and looked at the person in black who appeared next to him in shock.

Although I was mentally prepared, I was still frightened by this way of appearance

"You are still here."

Dayu——this bold and reckless secret guard, who was named casually by Zhao Ji, hummed, and said very frankly

"What's your master's order?"

……

In fact, there is no order, just want to call.

Huaiyu broke a dead branch, squatted by the pond, stirred the shattered ice, and after a while, said to himself

"That night... I don't remember Zhao Ji..."

In the end, the voice was inaudible, because he felt that he didn't know how to speak. It was actually embarrassing to say such a word and such a timing.

Dayu couldn't take his eyes off, and his tone was steady, and he didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all.

"Xiaoxiao's generation has already been punished, and it is the crime of the minister to frighten the master."

Self-proclaimed minister... It sounds like I heard that the hidden guards trained by Zhao Ji all went to the military camp to experience, and said that maybe they will have official positions in the future.

But this is not within the scope of Huaiyu's concern. His night was really absurd, but he didn't lose his memory. Naturally, he knew that someone died before he went to the Prince's Mansion. He didn't raise his eyes at this moment, but asked again.

"You killed that person, and you told Zhao—His Majesty?"

Forget, now you can't just call Zhao Ji's name casually.

It is a matter of duty not to let the master be threatened or defiled by anyone, Daxue replied

"Yes, Your Majesty has come here to save you."

specialized…….

Gee.

Huai Yu didn't believe that Zhao Ji would be so kind at all. He stood up and threw the branch vigorously into the pond, causing a small splash. question.

"Do you smell anything?"

Dayu blinked, wondering why such a question was asked, but didn't express his doubts, just shook his head.

Huaiyu snorted, moved closer to Daxue, looked at him curiously and said

"I heard that [Zhongren] can't smell the heaven and earth. Is it true?"

Did you smell anything that night?

It was only now that Dayu realized that if it was that night, he actually smelled a little flower fragrance unusually. He didn't know what it was, and he didn't usually do any research on the fragrance of flowers.

I just remember that it smells good, but it's very weak, very weak.

As for the question of whether you can smell the heavens and the earth, Daxue nodded, confirming Huaiyu's question

"No."

At least he is so old, he has never smelled the smell of heaven and earth, he has also seen heaven and earth up close during the Waking of Insects period, but he doesn't understand why he is addicted to it.

He didn't respond to or feel the taste of the bliss described in the book. Like all his companions, the world of [Middleman] was as dull as water.

Huaiyu turned her hands away and smiled silently, this time she said sincerely

"It's a good thing."

Then he walked back step by step, and said

"There's nothing to ask, just step back."

The hidden guard left quietly again, not knowing where he went in an instant, as if he had an invisibility technique.

Time is boring again.

Huaiyu felt as if she was not interested in anything at all. She flipped through the book to tease the rabbit, and lay down on the couch and slept all afternoon until she woke up from the cold. Lantern turned around and saw him sitting up, so he jumped up and ran over again, excitedly saying

"Master, you didn't go to see it today. It's very lively outside. The Eldest Young Master is riding a horse and followed by a line of troops. It's so majestic!"

Oh, Xiaozhu went to watch the enthronement ceremony with the servants at home early in the morning. Although the emperor's enthronement ceremony could not be seen nearby, the street was always very lively.

Huai Yu sat up feeling nothing, and asked

"Dad and brother are back?"

"The master is in the study in the front yard, the young master has not come back."

Huai Yu casually asked

"Why did you go?"

Xiao Zhu scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment

"The young master is going to send off Mr. Ran."

Although it seems that maybe this son of Juran wants to let the eldest son be a cheap father, but Xiao Zhu has a pure nature and doesn't know how to despise others.

"It's so late? What are you sending? Where are you going?"

Huaiyu didn't know what the situation was, there was no reason to leave in the middle of the night, he yawned, and before he could shut up, Xiaozhu said another thing to keep him where he was

"Not only Mr. Jinran, Mr. Wenjing has also left today."

!!!

Huaiyu was completely awake. He looked at Xiaozhu and asked in disbelief.

"What do you mean?"

Xiao Zhu took a step back silently, then scratched his head, and whispered

"Today Mr. Wen Jing finished watching the young master's tour, and left. He said he was afraid that he would not be able to catch up with the boat, so he didn't say goodbye."

This is... what kind of day is this.

Huai Yu covered her face, feeling mixed emotions in her heart, and felt powerless, could it be that she was angry and afraid because she had slighted him, and left without saying goodbye, really hated me?

Thinking about it this way, the whole person seemed to be dejected, and said despondently

"Didn't he want an examiner... Go back, how do you take the test?"

"Young Master Wen Jing said he would go back to celebrate the New Year, and he will come back after the year."

Xiaozhu tilted his head, looked at his young master, and didn't understand why he looked like all hope was lost, isn't it just to go back for a new year, this is human nature.

Huaiyu has never been like this
