Xie Yuanjia is back again.

The emperor returned to court, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, although they didn't know how to deal with the next thing, is it still the same as before?The emperor should have a grudge, right?

After Xie Yuanjia returned, the first thing he did was to promulgate a decree.Declaring that he is not of royal blood, he will select an excellent heir to the crown prince from among the remaining royal family members and make him the crown prince.And he only handled the government affairs on his behalf for ten years. When the future prince came of age, he voluntarily abdicated and returned the power to the descendants of the Xie family.

Since then, during Xie Yuanjia's reign, he did not open a harem, marry wives and concubines, and leave no children.

When this decree came out, almost everyone was shocked except for a few veteran officials who knew about it. They thought that the emperor would definitely deal with the lineage of King Chen when he came back, but they didn't expect him to say nothing about it.

The emperor was tolerant and selfless so far, what else could these courtiers say, so they all knelt down, bowed their heads willingly, kowtowed three times in a row, admiring Xie Yuanjia's righteousness.

This is the most legendary part of the history of the Dacheng Dynasty recorded in the history books of later generations. He reigned for 15 years, which is called "the 15 years of Daihuang" in history.

It is precisely because of the 15 years of Xie Yuanjia's reign that he has recuperated, worked hard, cared for the people, opened up good governance and regained the frontiers, and rescued the Dacheng Dynasty from the brink of death. A century of prosperity has laid a solid foundation, and has been praised and supported by generations of descendants, and it is also a role model in the hearts of all kings.

Back to the present-

Hearing that Xie Yuanjia was back, Qiuyang was the first to throw Jingying Palace down, "Your sister knows it! My younger sister knows that Brother Huang will not want Qiuyang!"

"Why are you crying again?" Xie Yuanjia hilariously wiped her tears, "You were also crying when I left, and it was raining with pear blossoms when I came back. Did you just cry in the palace for more than ten days?"

Qiuyang was a little embarrassed, she was indeed crying a lot these days, and she didn't like to eat much, which made Chen'er and sister Dairou anxious, "Sister Chen always loves to cry."

"Okay, I'm back." Xie Yuanjia saw Qiuyang again, and he missed him very much. He touched the palace flowers on Qiuyang's temples, and said softly: "Brother Huang will still leave in the future, but then It will be a long time later, you don't have to be afraid anymore."

Qiuyang is like a little bird that relies on her elders. She was terrified a few days ago. There was no master in the entire palace. In the huge harem, except for the dorms of the concubines, there were still some lights, and the rest of the palace was pitch-black and devoid of popularity. , Quiet and frightening, often sleeping until midnight and being awakened.

Fu Jinghong leaned against the door and looked at Xie Yuanjia, "Yuan Jia, do you really not regret it?"

He really wanted to take him away that day, as long as he said yes, he would really give up everything and go wandering with him, but in the end Yuan Jia came back, back to the cage he hated the most.

"I don't regret it." After Xie Yuanjia sent Qiuyang away, he talked to Fu Jinghong quietly, and then returned to the palace, his mood was different, "Don't do things that you regret, if you make a decision, you make a decision."

"But didn't you say you wanted to see the great rivers and mountains?" Fu Jinghong looked at him seriously.

Xie Yuanjia laughed softly, "I want to see it now too, but if there is really a war, how can we visit the rivers and mountains with peace of mind? Will there really be a peach blossom garden for us to hide in? At that time, starving people will be killed and people will be displaced. How can you be alone?"

"Besides, I didn't promise to sell myself to the Xie family for the rest of my life." Xie Yuanjia deliberately acted cutely and blinked to tease Fu Jinghong, "No matter who is finally selected, it will take more than ten years for him to become an adult. After ten years, I will only be thirty A few days ago, it was the age when we were strong and energetic, and when we went to play again, the mountains and rivers were still as quiet as the years, and we must be happier."

Fu Jinghong looked at Xie Yuanjia reluctantly for a moment, how could there be such a transparent and gentle person in this world?In his heart, is there no resentment in his heart?

"Then I will accompany you until that day." Fu Jinghong said solemnly, "At that time, I will really hand over all my things, and walk with you all by myself without taking anything."

"Okay." Xie Yuanjia was happy, "Then we've made a deal."

Xie Yuanlan was kicked out of the house by Xie Yuanjia that day. It is said that she has been in a coma and sober upside down, and has never been able to get out of bed. There are many more times when she is in a coma every day than when she is awake. Occasionally, when she wakes up, she can only ask a few questions weakly What is the current situation, there is no one guarding him, and he is alone waiting to die.

The concubine heard that Xie Yuanjia had returned to court, and Xie Yuanlan was seriously ill and comatose again. She is a woman who can't understand the changes in the court, but she knows what it means to settle the remnants. The emperor heard that he is kind, maybe it won't matter, but the regent will definitely not Let her and Fengyi go, so she took advantage of a dark night and didn't want anything but some soft clothes. She took Xie Fengyi who was still sleeping and left the capital overnight. No one knew where she went.

Half a month later, the weather became colder and the ground began to freeze and slippery. Xie Yuanjia and Fu Jinghong ate hot pot by the stove. The Chinese New Year was less than a month away. This year's harvest was good, and everyone could have another stable year.

Hearing from the little eunuch that His Royal Highness Chen Wang was going to die, he specially sent someone into the palace to inform the emperor, begging to see him again.

Xie Yuanjia didn't want to go see them at first, they had nothing to say, but Xie Yuanlan asked repeatedly, so he went too, wanting to see what else he could say. .

"I thought that the emperor would never want to see me again." Xie Yuanlan was even more ill than he was in Fu Jinghong's study last time. He described as haggard, emaciated and out of shape. Those strong medicines tortured him to death.

"I didn't want to, but I also want to know what last words you have to say." Xie Yuanjia looked at him calmly, neither sad nor happy.

Xie Yuanlan was as skinny as a mummy, his whole body was as shriveled as bones, which was quite different from his usual appearance, and he could not be seen as a person.For such a beautiful person, Xie Yuanjia looked away in embarrassment.

Xie Yuanlan endured the pain in his body and smiled, then turned his eyes to Xie Yuanjia again, and said with a pale face: "Your Majesty, do you still hate me?"

Xie Yuanjia didn't come here to show off his miserable appearance. He just shook his head when he heard this: "I can't say I hate you, I just feel sorry for you."

"If you hadn't been so calculating, if you hadn't insisted on going your own way, you could have lived for another two years, and even if you had to die in the end, at least die with dignity."

Xie Yuanlan coughed violently and spit out a few mouthfuls of blood. He laughed a few times, panted for a while, and said: "What the emperor taught me is that I have to blame myself."

Xie Yuanjia looked at him quietly, he still didn't understand what people like Xie Yuanlan were thinking, "Are you afraid of death?"

"If you knew from birth that you would not live long, would you still be afraid?" Xie Yuanlan asked back.

Xie Yuanjia imagined for a while, "I don't know."

There is no one who is not afraid of death, Xie Yuanlan is just numb from despair.

Xie Yuanlan finally shed tears in his eyes, "I thought I was extremely smart, I never considered other people's thoughts, and in the end I didn't think about anything, even Fengyi disappeared."

He doesn't regret all the things he planned, but just like Fu Jinghong said, he has a guilty conscience for Xie Yuanjia, and he probably can't let it go after his death, "Actually, I..." I really want to be a good brother.

Xie Yuanlan didn't say what was said later, even if someone like him said it, no one would believe him, it would only make people think he was hypocritical and disgusting.

"You don't have to look at me like this. If I say I don't hate you, then I don't hate you. Of course, I don't have any other feelings for you." Xie Yuanjiafang said softly, "Although you may not know it, I also wanted to treat you as my brother before." Yes. But since you have your position and I have mine, we should go our separate ways and never see each other again."

"Besides, strictly speaking, you are not wrong." Xie Yuanjia said softly, "This is the country that your ancestors brought down, and it should not be occupied by an outsider like me. You are right to defend the interests of the family. People make choices like this.”

"Unfortunately, I just missed me."

Tears welled up in Xie Yuanlan's eyes. He grabbed Xie Yuanjia's hand and squeezed it tightly with the last bit of strength, "If there is an afterlife, I will definitely be a good brother."

He remembered the way Xiang Chu came to his home in the middle of the night and looked at him with a cold face.

He said, I have a sincere heart for the prince, because I sincerely make friends with you and treat you as a bosom friend. I didn't expect that the prince just used his ministers from the beginning, and now he has harmed the emperor. Xie Yuanlan, do you have any intentions?

Xie Yuanlan couldn't remember exactly what she said that day, but she only remembered that Xiang Chu left a sentence to do it for herself, and turned her head and rushed into the dark night.

Before he died, Xie Yuanlan realized that after all the tricks in his life were exhausted, in the end, there was no one left by his side.

With more than half a month before the Chinese New Year, the first heavy snowfall fell in the capital. Xie Yuanlan passed away peacefully on a snowy night. She didn't say a word after her death. She only said that she had never had children. If Fengyi lived as a commoner, she would Very good, don't enter the emperor's house again.

Xie Yuanjia sat in front of the window, watching Bai Xue fall one after another, thinking that Xie Yuanlan should be quite cold lying in the coffin.That person was very beautiful in white, like a fairy, and Xue Ye's departure suited his temperament.

Xie Yuanlan was undoubtedly a lunatic, a complete conspirator. Even Fu Jinghong said that if he was in good health, there would be a battle between him and Fu Jinghong sooner or later. It was unknown who would win. It was a pity that God was jealous of talents.

No matter what happened to him, Xie Yuanjia would not resent a dead person now that the ashes have returned to the ashes, and he would not even take this matter to heart.

When a suitable candidate is selected in the future, he will follow Fu Jinghong through the rivers and lakes and never return.
