My Princess Has Been Reborn

After returning from the East Palace, Lu Qipei had a good talk with Qi Yang again.She said firmly that the prince would not find anything, and Qi Yang was at a loss from the beginning, and gradually calmed down.

For the following period of time, the East Palace was very peaceful, as if the thorough temptation of that day never existed at all.

Qi Yang had been worried for a while, but seeing that everything was going on as usual, he was really relieved.But because the crown prince knew these things, even if he hadn't been verified, once he became suspicious, Qi Yang would no longer be able to trust him as before.

On the other side, Lu Qipei also took the time to go back to Lu's house, reminding Qi Bo to restrain everyone and not let the prince get hold of it.At this point, even if Qi Bo still had resentment and dissatisfaction with Lu Qipei, he still carried it out well.And Lu Qipei never doubted Qi Bo's execution ability, after all, he was the one who could keep his power under Xie Yuan, forcing him to plot northward!

At the beginning of August, King Wu was finally found. Unfortunately, he was no longer the fresh and lively appearance when he left Beijing in high spirits.

What Mingzhou sent back to the capital was a coffin.The people in the coffin were wearing brocade robes and crowns, but their bodies had been soaked in water and transported long distances in this hot weather, and they were already rotten beyond recognition.

It is said that Concubine Wu opened the coffin and saw it, she couldn't restrain herself from crying, and she became seriously ill afterwards.However, there are also rumors that the body of King Wu was too corrupted, Princess Wu was fumigated and vomited, and she fell ill after being frightened a lot.But no matter what, the Wu Palace has indeed lost its owner, and the emperor's son is just like this, one less.

The emperor didn't value the princes other than the prince very much, but after all, they were all the emperor's own children.Even though he had prepared for the news that King Wu was being washed by the flood, he was still very sad when he really heard the news of his son's death.

It so happened that an autumn rain in August dispelled the summer heat that had lasted in central Beijing, and the emperor fell ill accidentally.

After all, it is an elderly person who cannot stand the torment of illness.Don't look at the prince who has been ill for the past three years, and has to stay in bed for a while to recuperate from time to time, but he is young after all, and he can slowly recuperate after he recovers.But the emperor was different, it was obviously just a minor illness, but it seemed to destroy his health, making the originally hale and hearty person gradually look old.

Qi Yang has always had a heart for the emperor, but at this time, she couldn't help worrying: "Today I went to the palace to have an audience, and when I looked at the emperor, the brilliance in his eyes seemed to be a little less than before, and there were silver threads in his hair. "

While speaking, she looked at Lu Qipei, with worries and fragility in her eyes that she hadn't even noticed.

Lu Qipei hugged her, and patted her on the back lightly as if to comfort her, but he couldn't express more comfort - people are born, old, sick and die, this is something that no one can stop, even if you are the emperor and rich all over the world.What's more, the emperor is not doing well now, he just got sick and aged a little, and he will get older day by day.

Naturally, Qi Yang also understood this truth, he was worried about it for a few days, and after asking the imperial physician that the emperor was well, he gradually let go of his heart.After a while, she went to the Xuanshi Palace more, but went less to the East Palace.

The emperor was aware of this, and one day he smiled and shook Qi Yang's hand and said: "The emperor is the most caring. I am sick, and everyone runs diligently. When I recover, everyone has disappeared. Also Only the emperor is always thinking about me, and recently even your emperor brother has been going around less."

Hearing this, Qi Yang felt a little stagnant, and immediately smiled and said, "Where is the father? My son used to go to the East Palace frequently, but it was because the emperor was weak and was always sick. Now that the father is sick, of course it is better than the emperor's brother." more important."

The emperor laughed when he heard her words, and he only believed a little, or whether he believed it or not, it was beyond the guesswork of others.He raised his hand and stroked his daughter's temple hair, and said: "Your brother is kind and self-denying, and he will be a wise monarch in the future. You have been close to him since childhood, and this is a kind of affection that no one else can exchange. It's a small matter, and it will be separated from him."

Qi Yang raised his eyes in a daze, and met the emperor's eyes that seemed to know everything, but also contained warmth.She felt sour all of a sudden, all the grievances and knots in her previous life seemed to have disappeared at this moment.

Seeing that the circles of her eyes were red, the emperor was stunned, and smiled again: "Why, have you been wronged? If the emperor is really wronged, don't hide it. Now you still have the father to decide with you. If it is the prince who made you wronged Yes, I will scold him for you!"

Qi Yang couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, as if time went back to his childhood.But she also knew in her heart that this kind of warmth only existed for a moment, and it was broken by herself after a while: "No, Brother Huang didn't let me be wronged. It's just that there was some misunderstanding between me and Brother Huang. It's a little unpleasant... I really can't hide anything from my father."

The emperor didn't ask the specific reason, and after saying a few words casually, he pushed Qi Yang and said, "Go and clarify with your emperor brother earlier, so that it won't take too long, and a rift will really arise."

After this conversation, the emperor seemed to be really old and began to worry about everything for his children.

Qi Yang felt a sense of emotion in his heart, after leaving the Xuanshi Hall, he still went to the East Palace.

At this time, it has been less than half a month since the prince's last showdown, and according to the frequency of Qi Yang's entry into the palace in the past, she only came to the East Palace once or twice less than usual.During this period, the emperor was ill, and others could not see that she was no longer estranged from the East Palace.

But that was someone else, Qi Yang and the crown prince, who were the parties involved, naturally understood that there was still a gap between their brothers and sisters after that day - not only their brothers and sisters knew it well, even the emperor could see it.Perhaps with a longer period of time, other people would be able to see it, but fortunately, the emperor reminded them that the two brothers and sisters would not drift apart.

In the front hall of the East Palace, the prince was discussing matters with several officials, and he never showed any signs of disbelief when he saw Qi Yang's arrival.

After dismissing a few staff members at will, the crown prince greeted Qi Yang as usual: "The emperor's sister is here, sit down quickly. The emperor's father is not in good health recently, you may not have been here for a long time, and you just came from the Xuanshi hall today, right?" ?”

Qi Yang nodded, seeing that the prince's face was unchanged, he just sat down with peace of mind.

The maid in the East Palace quickly brought tea and snacks, and was dismissed by the prince immediately, leaving only her two in the huge front hall.This time even Lu Qipei was not there, so the brother and sister could really have a frank talk.

The crown prince held the tea and didn't drink it. The slightly hot temperature penetrated through the teacup, warming his palms that were a little cold after autumn: "The imperial sister must have something to say to Gu when she comes today."

Qi Yang didn't drink tea either, the gesture of holding the teacup was the same as that of the prince: "No matter what the emperor thinks, I trust the son-in-law."

Her straightforward words were so straightforward that the prince was startled.The prince wanted to laugh but couldn't, and when he talked about serious matters, he turned serious, and said to her in a rare solemn tone: "Young sister is so emotional, I am very disappointed."

To be honest, Qi Yang was almost brought up by the prince alone. He taught her to read and write, and taught her the principles of writing. He spent more effort than his own children.And the more you pay, the greater your expectations.Seeing Qi Yang estranged from the Eastern Palace recently, the Prince was actually disappointed because of her love for his son and daughter.Now when I hear her speak again, I don't need to mention my mood.

Qi Yangming suddenly saw the disappointment in the prince's eyes, and his heart suddenly became heavy.But there were some things she had to say, and some things she couldn't escape, so she straightened her back and said, "I'm not acting out of emotion, I'm here today to reason with Brother Huang."

The prince's face softened a lot when he heard the words: "Then tell me, Gu will listen first."

Qi Yang looked at the prince, his bright black eyes were frank and pure: "I don't know where the emperor got the news about Xie Yuan, but it is unwise to doubt the son-in-law based on this. You don't need to mention her and Xie Hongyi's appearance, I have also seen this, but other than that, have you seen the son-in-law do anything that is disloyal to the king, not good for the country, or something that is in the way of you and me?"

The prince was dumb when he heard the words, thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "I don't know. Maybe she didn't do it, maybe I didn't find out."

Qi Yang couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this: "Brother Huang didn't find out, so he started to suspect someone?" After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for the prince to say anything, and continued: "Brother Huang needs to know that people in this world have acquaintances. , it’s nothing unusual. Even if the son-in-law is born exactly the same as Xie Yuan of Rongguo, what does it mean? In the whole world, maybe there are people who are born exactly like you and me.”

It is not easy for the crown prince to refute, his suspicion is born in the royal family, and Qi Yang should also have it, but now she is completely blinded by emotions.However, the prince is not an arbitrary person, so he spoke suddenly that day, in fact, it was mostly for the purpose of probing.

It's a pity that Lu Qipei was too steady, he didn't find out anything, but Qi Yang couldn't hold his breath first.

At this moment, facing Qi Yang's questioning, the prince also had some headaches, and at the same time he still felt a little unbelievable: "Even if Gu didn't produce any evidence, but for such an important matter, did you really not suspect the son-in-law? Not even the slightest bit?"

Qi Yang shook his head, his face full of determination: "No, not a single bit."

The prince stared at Qi Yang for a long while, and naturally saw that what she said was true, but he still found it unbelievable—Qi Yang was taught by him himself, and he was also the most similar to him. He thought she would face anyone calmly, anything.

Of course the prince at this time would not know what kind of waiting and searching Qi Yang had experienced, and what kind of despair and loss he had experienced.When you find it lost when you think it is hopeless, that kind of cherishing is beyond the control of reason.Fortunately, she met Lu Qipei, Guangfeng Jiyue, and Lu Qipei who had a disadvantage with her. She would never use her, let alone betray her.

The two brothers and sisters looked at each other in silence, and Qi Yang suddenly said: "Brother Huang, have you forgotten that before we talked about Xie Yuan that day, the son-in-law was reminding you to pay attention to your own safety. She has never been mean to you."

The prince was dumbfounded, the suspicion in his heart may not have subsided, but he also knew that what Qi Yang said was right.At least from this point of view, not only did Lu Qipei not harm him, but he did everything possible to help him protect him in the past few years, and the proposal that day was even more selfless.

The emperor was right, the crown prince would be a benevolent monarch, so he couldn't be so ruthless that he would rather kill the wrong than let him go.

After a long time, he sighed: "Maybe you are right."
