Ten years of life and death

25

In the study room of the East Palace, the crown prince, Zhang Shaomin and other ministers of the court knelt and listened to the emperor's last edict: "Following the heavens, the emperor said, the prince is honest and kind, and he is the demeanor of the lord of a country. After a hundred years, I will pass on the throne to the emperor." In the hands of the prince, please do so.

Long live my emperor, long live, long live!

The prince took the imperial decree from the Xuanzhao eunuch, looked down at the dozens of people kneeling below, and all the officials were flat.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Come here, show these letters to your lords. The little emperor who just proclaimed himself emperor ordered someone to deliver the letter. The Izumo Kingdom knows that the son-in-law was assassinated and killed on the way to the peace talks. I am afraid that the court will blame them for this matter. He took the initiative to send a letter of professment. King Izumo has passed the throne to the eldest son of Queen Dongfang, and withdrew diplomatic relations with other small countries. What do you think about this matter?

Since the Izumo Kingdom has bowed its head and obeyed orders, there is no need to suppress it, so as not to disturb the peace between the people of the two countries, but the assassination of the son-in-law, the minister thinks that it must be investigated.

The five guardians have been silenced, and it may be difficult to find the mastermind behind the scenes.

Your Majesty, the five protectors were rescued from under my nose, and it was my negligence that allowed them to get out of the capital, so that my son-in-law was murdered. I swear today that if the murderer cannot be found, I will take off voluntarily. This official clothes, never return to court, Liu Changying stood up and said.

Well, then I will leave this matter to you.

Thank you, Your Majesty, for not blaming me.

In the princess mansion, Tianxiang woke up from a coma, her head was heavy, as if something was pressing her down, she moved her body, but she couldn't do what she wanted, only heard a soft sobbing sound from the table next to her, Xing'er, help me up.

Hearing the voice of the person on the bed, Xing'er hurriedly wiped her face, princess, you woke up, how do you feel?Will the servant cook you something to eat?

Tianxiang shook her head feebly, her pale face made people feel distressed, I am not hungry, please help me to the mourning hall.

Well, princess be careful.

Seeing that Tianxiang woke up, the imperial physician who had been guarding the door immediately went up to greet her, Princess, it's good that you wake up, Wei Chen has something to say to the princess, please step back and leave.

Alright, Xing'er, you go outside and wait, Tianxiang signaled Xing'er to go out first, and then invited the imperial doctor to come in, tell me, what's the matter?

The imperial doctor first knelt down and then opened his mouth. The prince asked Weichen how the baby in the womb was. Weichen told the prince that the princess's baby was fine.

child?Tianxiang's drowsy mind immediately became sober when she heard these two words. These days, she was completely immersed in the pain of losing Feng Shaomin, but she forgot to deal with the child's affairs. It has been more than four months. If she doesn't deal with it, I'm afraid It will be hard to justify it at that time, imperial doctor, since you have told Brother Huang that the child is fine, the child is fine, do you understand?

The princess was very right, and the child is all well.

In the Princess Mansion at night, because there are white cloths hanging everywhere to light the lamps and the sound of crying and crying, it really makes people a little scared. Tian Xiang leaned against the coffin and didn't move, no matter who persuaded her, she ignored it, just as Madam Zhuang and the others When he was at a loss what to do, the servants came to report that Liu Changying and Li Zhaoting had arrived, and the anxiety on their faces was a little less. Two adults, two ladies, please come and persuade the princess. Since she came back, the princess has dropped some food Before entering, the servants could not persuade them.

Princess, you should eat something anyway, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about the child in your belly, Zhang Xin leaned down to persuade Tian Xiang.

Zhang Xin's voice of persuasion came over, Tian Xiang looked at her, and set her eyes on Zhang Xin's swollen abdomen, Zhang Xin, how old is your child?

Hearing Tianxiang's inquiry, Zhang Xin, who was a new mother, smiled and gently stroked her abdomen. It has been more than five months, and they are twins.

It's been more than five months, it's great, Tianxiang looked at Zhang Xin in front of her, and then at herself, she suddenly felt very cold, like winter with falling snow, but at this moment, it was summer outside, Zhang Xin, don't stand still Here, here is full of bad luck, not good for children.

Princess, you are also pregnant, you should also pay attention, get up and rest for a while, will you have something to eat?Zhang Xin stretched out her hand to help Tianxiang.

Tianxiang pushed Zhang Xin's hand away and leaned against the side of the coffin. She had already lost her mind, she was silent for a while and opened her mouth, but she was caressing her belly. This child should not exist.

Everyone listened to Tianxiang's words and looked at her actions, thinking that Tianxiang didn't want this child anymore, they all persuaded Tianxiang, princess, the child is innocent, although brother Feng is gone, we all will love him well.

Brother Liu is right.

Hearing everyone's persuasion, Tianxiang grinned lightly, she knew that everyone cared about her very much, you go back, mommy and the others will take care of me.

Okay, if you need help, please send someone to inform us, and you must take good care of yourself. Before leaving, Liu Changying still did not forget to tell Tianxiang again. He used to treat Tianxiang as his younger sister, but now, Tianxiang also It's really his sister, blood is thicker than water, and he loves her even more.

On the day of Feng Shaomin's burial, there were dark clouds and heavy rain. Nanny Zhuang held an umbrella and hit Tianxiang on top of her head. The eunuch who carried the coffin walked past Tianxiang. Unable to bear it, she collapsed, the coffin was carried to the mausoleum, and when it was about to be buried, Tianxiang suddenly broke away from Tao Xing and rushed to the coffin from the rain.

Princess!Princess!Grandma Zhuang hurriedly followed in panic.

Tianxiang, who was drenched in the rain, pushed open the coffin lid vigorously, she wanted to take another look at Feng Shaomin, Taoxing and Xing knew Tianxiang's intentions, and regardless of the rain that was still falling, they pushed the coffin lid open together with Tianxiang, holding on. Putting an umbrella on the opened coffin mouth, Tianxiang saw Feng Shaomin who was sleeping, and stretched out her hand by the side of the coffin, but she didn't have the courage to touch Feng Shaomin again, she just stared blankly for a while, and ordered someone to close the coffin, surnamed Feng Yes, you can finally sleep peacefully, and you don't have to worry anymore.

The coffin fell little by little in the eyes of everyone, and then it was covered by bricks, with tears rolling in her eyes, Tianxiang tried her best not to let it fall, until a pavilion rose in the rain where the coffin was lowered, Tianxiang The tears in his eyes gushed out like a sea breaking its embankment.

Dongfang Tianxiang is such a proud daughter of heaven, she was born in an emperor's family, and she should enjoy the prosperity of this world in this life. However, in less than a month, the two most important people in her life have left her one after another. Go away, leaving her alone, although she has many people who care about her, her imperial brother, two men who love her, three servants who are loyal to her, and Liu Changying and other friends, but But her heart has really been hollowed out, and it will never be filled again.

The old emperor's body was buried half a month later. With the old emperor buried in peace, the rain that had been raining in the capital for half a month finally stopped. When the long-lost sun appeared in the sky above the capital, Tianxiang finally got up and went to Walking outside, Grandma Zhuang saw Tianxiang voluntarily said that she was hungry for the first time since Feng Shaomin left. It was filled with Tianxiang's favorite dishes.

Princess, you have lost a lot of weight these days, why don't you have a good meal today, Nanny Zhuang brought some food for Tianxiang.

Tianxiang glanced at the dishes on the table, then stared at the place next to her for a long time, Xing'er, go get four sets of bowls and chopsticks.

Although Xing'er didn't care about Tian Xiang's intentions, seeing Tian Xiang willing to speak, she was still full of joy in her heart, and soon brought four more sets of bowls and chopsticks.

Set the dishes and chopsticks, all three of you sit down, Tianxiang said.

Hearing that Tianxiang wanted the three of them to sit down, all three of them shook their heads, princess, don't beat the slaves, the dishes are cold, you can eat quickly.

You guys take pity on me, why don't you just have a meal with me?A pair of reddish eyes looked at the three of them.

The slaves had no choice but to obey, Zhuang Nanny signaled Tao Xing and the two to sit down with the princess, seeing that the three of them had sat down, Tian Xiang got up slowly, and brought food for the three of them.

Ah, princess, no, the three of them were a little frightened by Tianxiang's move. They were originally slaves, and it was unimaginable to be able to eat at the same table with Princess Tianxiang. Overwhelmed.

Long expected that the three of them would have this reaction, Tianxiang comforted the three of them, and picked up the teacups on the table, the three of you served you wholeheartedly before the son-in-law was alive, and now I offer you a toast with tea and wine.

Princess, don't say that, the son-in-law is the master, and we as slaves should serve him wholeheartedly.

What kind of master, what kind of slave, if I am not a princess, I really hope to have a nagging mother like you, and two such good sisters like you. times smile.

In the eyes of the three, the smile on Tianxiang's face was like the sun after the continuous rain, and they were delighted. They were really afraid that Tianxiang would turn into a walking dead with Feng Shaomin's departure. Now it seems that, Their concerns have begun to abate somewhat.
