one hundred and six

Three days later—

Before dawn, Xiao Weixin got up, and You Shu personally helped him to dress for the enthronement ceremony sent by the Ministry of Rites the day before. Although Xiao Weixin used to eat and dress the most exquisitely, but Compared with the dragon robe, it was still a little worse, now that he officially put on the dragon robe, You Shu realized that Xiao Weixin was really going to be the emperor.

He looked down at the five dragons embroidered on the dragon robe, couldn't help raising his hand and traced it carefully with his fingers, and said in a low voice: "From now on, Mo Shi is the emperor."

Xiao Weixin raised his hand to hold his hand, but kissed him on the side of his face, "Then, do I look so good-looking?"

"It looks good." You Shu nodded seriously, "Better than a dog...much better than Xiao Weishen."

He had said long ago that the dog emperor's appearance was as good as if he had picked it up on the street, how could he compare with their lord.

Xiao Weixin's eyes are full of smiles, he likes to hear Xiao Shu boast about himself.Originally, I wanted to say something to him, but it was a pity that it was getting bright outside, and the palace people had already prepared everything, just waiting for the door to open.

"It's getting late, let's go." You Shu tidied up the dragon crown and robe for him again, and gently pushed him towards the door, "The Ministry of Rites told me last night, don't miss the time."

Xiao Weixin was pushed out by him, turned around before leaving the door and hugged him fiercely, "Xiao Shu, wait for me to come back."

I will definitely give you an aboveboard identity.

"Of course I'll wait for you here." You Shu nodded and assured him, "Don't worry if you can't escape."

Xiao Weixin was relieved, stood in front of the door and held his breath for a while before opening the door.

The moment the door opened, all the palace people outside knelt down.

You Shu watched the scene quietly from the door, until Xiao Weixin wearing a dragon robe gradually drifted away under the guidance of the ceremony officer, and still stood there stubbornly, not knowing what kind of emotion he felt.

Never thought that one day he would actually witness everything with his own eyes.It's like playing a growing game, accompanying the protagonist step by step from weak to strong, from a poor little boy with nothing at the beginning to a powerful emperor at the end, the sense of accomplishment cannot be summed up in a few simple words.

And he could finally stop making a knife.

Of course, You Shu couldn't be absent from the enthronement ceremony. He mixed with all the civil and military officials, bowed down to Xiao Weixin who stepped up to the high altar step by step, and couldn't help feeling a little proud.

Such a handsome and excellent man is his.

Among the crowd, You Shu and Xiao Weixin, who happened to be watching over from the high platform, looked at each other, and they both gave each other a tacit smile.

The grand ceremony is good-looking for a while, and after offering sacrifices to heaven, it will be time for congratulations from all walks of life in the process. Although Daliang is now in decline, it is still a big country. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. As long as it does not fall, the surrounding small countries will Come to worship.

Surprisingly, the new King Khan of Xirong, who has been in power for less than a month, also sent someone to send a congratulatory gift. Although he did not arrive, he had already expressed a friendly attitude. This made everyone puzzled After all, Xi Rong has been the strongest among all the hostile forces in Daliang for so many years. I don't know what kind of temperament this new King Khan has.

You Shu didn't like this kind of official occasion, he took a sneak look at Xiao Weixin who was sitting alone on the high platform, and secretly thought that he would not be angry if he left quietly without showing loyalty.

When thinking this way, You Shu had already slipped away first, he didn't want to sing with others at a banquet with so many people, especially when several people noticed him, they would come to talk to him intentionally or unintentionally, which was very annoying.

He was familiar with the road to the imperial palace before, and You Shu accidentally walked to the vicinity of the Lenggong while strolling casually.

Few people came to this place before, but now there is laughter congratulating the new emperor everywhere outside, and all the palace people ran to the front hall to beg for the lottery, trying to make a face in front of the new emperor, making the cold palace even more deserted.

No matter how many people there were in Xiao Weishen's harem, all of them have been removed now, the new emperor has just ascended the throne, and the only side concubine in the original mansion, Mrs. Zhou, has also been abandoned.

You Shu knew that Xia Lingwei lived here, once Xiao Weishen's queen.

Originally, he didn't intend to go in, but out of curiosity, he still secretly jumped up to the top of the wall and looked down from the top. He was always full of curiosity about this woman, and all her behaviors were not worthy of her identity. He is a very contradictory person.

Originally, she just wanted to take a peek at the wall, but Xia Lingwei suddenly raised her head and bumped into him, both of them were taken aback.

You Shu was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do, so he apologized in a low voice: "I'm sorry."

Xia Lingwei calmed down after being slightly astonished. Seeing that You Shu was about to leave, she opened her mouth and said, "You...what's your name?"

She's just a former empress who has no hope of turning around in the cold palace. You Shu felt that she was not threatening, so she replied, "Shu in the lower reaches."

"You Shu?" Xia Lingwei repeated softly, raising her head to beckon to him: "Everyone is here, sit down."

Ok?

You Shu struggled for a while, but in the end, curiosity was more important than anything else, so he jumped down obediently, and sat opposite to Xia Lingwei, "What's the matter, empress?"

"I'm no longer the queen." Xia Lingwei said in a low voice. She was holding a handkerchief in her hand and she was embroidering something. It looked like a mandarin duck playing in the water. "Listen to the movement...has the enthronement ceremony already started?"

You Shu never thought in his life that one day he would sit with Xia Lingwei and talk slowly. After listening to her question, he replied: "It's over, now is the time to entertain the officials from all over the world."

"No wonder." Xia Lingwei lowered her head and continued to work with her needlework. She was dressed in a plain coarse cloth dress, and she no longer had the gorgeous and dignified appearance of the phoenix crown brocade robe. It was still beautiful and refined, but it was a little more beautiful than before.

Looking at it this way, she and Xia Yinxiu really do have some resemblance.

He hesitated for a while, and then said, "I met Miss Xia before."

"Yinxiu?" Xia Lingwei stopped her needlework and looked up at him: "Is she okay?"

"It's probably not good." Before You Shu could answer, she shook her head again, "How can she be better in the current situation of the Xia family."

Seeing her heartbroken, You Shu couldn't help but said: "The emperor is merciful and will save her life."

"Really..." Xia Lingwei murmured to herself, "That's fine too."

You Shu had nothing to talk about, Xia Lingwei looked very busy, but she didn't make a sound to let him go, You Shu felt that he was really a fool, it would be nice to go back to sleep, she couldn't help being curious and came secretly See, make it your own.

Just when he was about to leave, Xia Lingwei said again: "My lord, what do you think of me as a mandarin duck?"

You Shu looked up for a while, then boasted: "My lady is very skilled."

A smile finally appeared on the corner of Xia Lingwei's mouth. It was perhaps the only smile she had seen in so many years, "I feel good too."

"Unfortunately, it's useless."

She gently stroked the pair of lifelike mandarin ducks embroidered with her hand, with some sentimentality in her eyes, "At first, I thought that the person next to him must be Yinxiu, but who would have guessed... just, there was no chance for me at all. People who are about to die don’t care about what to do.”

"It's just a pity that such a good craftsmanship."

After Xia Lingwei finished the last stitch and cut the thread, she held the handkerchief in her hand and looked left and right, her eyes filled with joy like an ordinary girl.

For some reason, seeing her like this, You Shu suddenly felt very uncomfortable. Although he was not familiar with this queen at all, and had never said a word before, but in this cold cold palace, he suddenly understood a little bit. the queen.

She really likes Xiao Weixin.

"I know he has someone in his heart." Xia Lingwei put down the veil, raised her head and stared at You Shu seriously for a long while, before saying, "A person like Young Master is indeed not comparable to my younger sister." .”

You Shu didn't expect that she would suddenly bring the topic to him, and was caught off guard for a while, and didn't even understand how she knew.

Xia Lingwei explained to him by herself, "That day in the Royal Garden, I saw how careful he was about you."

You Shu's face flushed, and he didn't know how to speak.

Xia Lingwei looked down at the mandarin duck handkerchief in her hand, and sighed: "Forget it, what am I going to tell you?"

"Why did you kill Xiao Weishen?" You Shu finally couldn't help blurting out, "Actually, it's not necessary at all, is it?"

Regardless of Prime Minister Xia's success or failure, it has little to do with her as a queen. There was no need for her to bear the eternal crime.

Xia Lingwei smiled slightly, "I'll kill if I want to, do I need a reason?"

You Shu looked at her seriously, but felt that even if she was smiling at this time, she seemed to be crying.

I'm afraid her life is really difficult, so even at this time she refuses to tell the truth.

"Young master, can you keep this handkerchief for me?" Xia Lingwei put the handkerchief into a small box on the table and pushed it over, "If you meet Yinxiu again in the future, give it to her for me."

"She was with my sister. I won't be able to see her when she gets married in the future. It should be a congratulatory gift."

You Shu lowered his head and stroked the small wooden box, then nodded lightly: "Your Majesty, don't worry."

Xia Lingwei nodded, the dress on her body was swayed by the cold wind, her whole body looked as thin as if she was going to go with the wind, "Thank you, my lord, for accompanying me, the wind is very cold here, you should go back earlier, lest he worry."

You Shu knows who the "he" she refers to.

He put the wooden box in his arms, stood up and bowed deeply to Xia Lingwei: "I understand your painstaking efforts."

"Thank you."

He walked a few steps with his back to Xia Lingwei, but suddenly heard her whisper:

"In the next life, I hope I can also find a lover."

You Shu turned around and said sincerely: "Your Majesty is auspicious, she will surely get her wish."

They all knew that Xia Lingwei could not survive, and this was just a wish before she died.

After You Shu left, Xia Lingwei also stood up from the stool, walked to the place where You Shu left and stood there, then looked up.

There was a clear sky above, and today was New Year's Eve, she almost forgot.

That young master came like a gust of wind and left like a gust of wind, which is really enviable.

Xia Lingwei sighed, turned around and walked in slowly.

Those unspoken admirations she had when she was young, needless to say in this life, will only increase troubles.

On New Year's Eve, thousands of houses are illuminated, and it coincides with the new emperor ascending the throne and changing the year name. The whole capital is full of joy, and every household is festive.

Lenggong also made an exception this year and lit a fire, but the flames soared into the sky, making the night sky red, and the fire was prosperous and beautiful.

At that time, You Shu was drinking with Xiao Weixin, and before he could say a few words, Hua Chun came to report.

The empress of Lenggong died.
