little son-in-law
Chapter 51 The Past 1 Dream
Prince Rong's eldest son, Rong Jin, who was still a suspect in the murder of Prince Beiyuan, was taken back to the palace of the Hall of Harmony by the emperor directly from the water prison where serious criminals were held, and lived there for nearly a month. The biggest rumor in the ruling and opposition parties.
Rumor has it that because of Rong Jin's poor health, the emperor ate together at court, slept together at night, and even changed clothes and washed personal matters without leaving others. The reason for Rong Jin.All of a sudden, the government and the public were shocked.
The emperor's act that was out of common sense this time caused many speculations. For a while, rumors were flying all over the sky. This time, the emperor sent Nangong Jingshen to garrison the northern border in the case of the Beiyuan prince, which seemed to have become ambiguous in this rumor.
Knowing how to speculate on the holy will, seeing that Mr. Mo, who was always close to the emperor, did not come out to speak, he could not figure it out, so he calmed down temporarily and watched the development of the situation quietly.
Several self-reliant veterans, especially the empress' father, the prime minister Liu Yuanmin, had made several submissions. In addition to prosecuting Rong Jin for killing Prince Beiyuan, there was one more thing: seducing the emperor and adulterating the harem.In the harem, there have always been many beautiful men serving them, but they are all exclusive palaces, and it is forbidden to communicate with the concubines in the harem. Now Rong Jin not only lives in the harem openly, but also lives in the Hall of Harmony, where only the emperor can live. It's not big, but after several visits, the emperor always stayed in the middle and did not say anything. One time, the emperor and the important ministers of the court were discussing matters in the imperial study, and Prime Minister Liu brought up the old matter again. On the ground, smashed to pieces, everyone knew about his master's temperament. Since then, the courtiers have been silent.
After the beginning of spring in February, the most busy thing in the court is the marriage of the eldest princess. The current emperor has been on the throne for 20 years, but the harem has few heirs. The object is the son of the Eldest Princess, the majestic king of the county. The wedding date is set on February 23. The Ministry of Rites has been busy with this matter since the beginning of the year. Seeing that the wedding date is just around the corner, there is another problem with the Eldest Princess.
"Princess, is this the third wedding dress sent by the Garment Bureau of the Inner Palace this month? It can't be returned anymore. It's already February [-]th today, and it's too late to make the next one." Princess's personal maid Xia Lu picked up the vermilion wedding gown that had been thrown on the ground, saw the helpless expression of the female officer of the Garment Bureau standing beside her, and softly comforted her.Her aunt was in the clothing bureau, so she knew clearly that the princess's wedding dress was very important, and it would take seven or eight days for dozens of female workers to work day and night to make a whole wedding dress.This is the seventh piece of the princess, and the third this month.
"I don't care. I'm going to get married. Why doesn't my father come to see me? I'm not married anymore. Take it away." Nangong Qingyun angrily snatched the wedding dress from Xia Lu's hand, threw it on the ground and stepped on it. After a few feet, I was still puzzled, and the more I thought about it, the more wronged I became, and I simply lay down on the bed and cried.
"Empress..." Xia Lu was worried and didn't know what to do.
The queen shook her head, signaling her to be silent, and sat down on the other side of the bed.
"Who messed with our most precious Yun'er?" The queen stroked her hair lovingly.
"Mother's queen?" Nangong Qingyun was even more aggrieved when she saw her mother coming, she lay in the queen's arms and cried, "I will see my father once in the next year, and today I will go to see my father again." Your Majesty, Your Royal Father sent someone to say that you are busy with something important and you don’t have time to see me. It’s that Rong Jin. Ever since he moved into your Royal Father’s bedroom, your Royal Father has not seen us. Queen Mother, you go and tell your Royal Father Drive Rong Jin out, he is so shameless, he has confused brother Jingshen, and now he is confusing father and mother, you go and drive him out of the palace, you and father are deeply in love with each other, father will definitely listen to you gone."
Empress Liu took off her handkerchief and wiped away the tears on her daughter's face.
The queen smiled wryly twice, did Yun'er think she didn't go?A few days after the emperor carried Rong Jin into the Taihe Palace, he went there, but he was stopped outside the first few times and never went in at all, but he saw him the last time he went.
It was a warm sunny day, and the camellias were in full bloom in the small garden of the Taihe Palace. There was a warm couch under the tree. Rong Jin seemed to be asleep, with a ruddy and peaceful face. She was wrapped in a pure white fox fur and embraced by the emperor. During the day, the emperor read a book in his ear, and from time to time twirled the tea petals that fell in Rong Jin's hair. The beautiful and harmonious scenes could be directly drawn into the painting.Seeing her coming in, he just glanced at him indifferently, whispered something in Rong Jin's ear, hugged Rong Jin horizontally, and went into the room without looking back.
She often thinks, is all this really fate?She used all means to drive away Rong Xi back then, is it his son's turn to take revenge on her now?
When she was young, she was also a well-known beauty in the capital, and her father was a prime minister with great power. Since she was born, countless people have come to propose marriage, but at that time she entered the palace and met Nangong Qiuhu, who was still the fourth prince at that time. teenager.
The father originally wanted to marry the fifth prince, Nangong Jiangcheng, who was also the legitimate son of the empress at that time, but couldn't bear her request, and chose to support the fourth prince, Nangong Qiuhu, who was born by Concubine Ying, and she also became the fourth prince's wife logically. The main concubine, after the big wedding, the two respected each other as guests. Although there was no sweet intimacy between newlyweds, he did not accept the side concubine either.
She thought that his temperament was naturally indifferent. Since it was her own choice, it was okay for the two of them to live like this for the rest of their lives. Until one day, when she saw that scene in the study, she always thought that the cold-tempered husband was in another Under the body of a man, she warmly greeted her, but she still comforted herself that her husband aspired to the throne, and Rong Xi held a heavy army, so maybe it was just flattery to win Rong Xi's support.
When he comes to the throne, she is the rightful queen, but what is his year name?It's Tongxi.Sit on an equal footing with Rong Xi and share this world?Do you stay in the harem every day and guard your body for Rong Xi?He thought that his work was perfect, and the world would not know about that evil seed back then. Maybe the world didn't know, but she knew that that evil seed was conceived by his husband, the emperor of Daning, who lay under a man. The child is like an eyeball, and she wants that child to die badly. She ordered someone to feed the three-month-old baby Sanhun, and inserted Nangong Xilan between the two with one hand, separating the two step by step. The two of them were equally proud and didn't bother to explain, she wouldn't succeed either.
Although the two had Qingyun again later, he seldom set foot in his Fengning Palace, instead he began to hang out in the harem. She added abortion pills to every concubine he had ever trusted, and since then nothing has come out of the harem.
The only two children in the harem are the sons and daughters of the main palace, but he doesn't care about Jingnian and loves Qingyun too much. On the contrary, Nangong Jingshen took him by his side and cultivated them carefully. Today's empress dowager She is also Nangong Jingshen's pro-grandmother, who loves him deeply, and has always had great prestige in the Nangong clan. She has been reckless for many years and lacks resourcefulness, so she can't compete with Nangong Jingshen. , These two children make her worry all the time.
The first time she saw Rong Jin, she hated him. She hated Rong Jin's somewhat similar face to Rong Xi.If she had the opportunity to get rid of Rong Jin and Nangong Jingshen at the same time, of course she would not let it go.
But now, not only did one of the two not get rid of, but Nangong Jingshen took control of the northern border military power.Let Rong Jin live in the Hall of Supreme Harmony again.
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what are you thinking?
Rongxi is dead, just a son with a somewhat similar face, is it enough to make you fascinated?
"Queen, queen, what are you thinking?" The queen's face was so scary just now, she was so scared that she didn't dare to cry.
The queen smiled and said, "Don't worry about Rong Jin's affairs. Be your bride at ease, and the queen mother will take care of other things."
"But the queen mother..." Nangong Qingyun still wanted to say a few words coquettishly, but seeing the cold expression on the queen mother's face, she shut up sensibly.
"If you don't like this wedding dress, just choose one from the previous ones. It will be too late to do it again." The queen calmed down and persuaded.Her own daughter also understands that it's not about the wedding dress at all, it's about being angry with her father.
"Then I'll choose the first one, I like that one very much."
This matter was suspended. As for the day of Nangong Qingyun's wedding, because the emperor saw her off in the future, she stayed in the Hall of Peaceful Harmony to accompany Rong Jin instead, and the big wedding ceremony is another story.
In the Hall of Harmony.
The north is cold, even in spring, there are still two snowfalls, and the ground dragon in the Hall of Supreme Harmony is still warm.
On the large dragon bed lay a young boy, wearing a fine white satin inner shirt, with a delicate face and a peaceful expression, as if he was sleeping soundly, but where the inner shirt could not cover, there were faint traces of cotton bandaging, and the clothes placed outside the quilt His hands and fingers were also wrapped in cotton cloth.
Nangong Qiuhu put a desk beside the bed.Approve a few memorials, and then look back at the child who is still unconscious. It has been more than half a month. He has been in a coma since he came back from his arms. He had a high fever at the beginning, and then he kept crying for pain. His only child. The three-month-old was taken away by Rong Xi and has never been seen again.
They are already this big, and they are still born with such good looks.Slender fingers brushed the hair on his forehead.
For so many years, he has always thought that heaven and man are separated, but he is so close to him.He has even been by his side these past few months, but he doesn't know anything about it, and let the child endure this kind of suffering.He should have had the most honorable position in the world, live his life safely, if he wanted, even the throne would be his.After all, his biological son was the emperor of this dynasty, and his father was a high-ranking prince in Daning.But now he can only sleep soundlessly here.
He should have thought of it earlier. At that time, the child said in his stomach that Rong Xi had said that in the future, this child, regardless of gender, would be named after Hibiscus, but back then he thought his child had passed away, and Rong Xi brought it back. How could he be reconciled to losing his and Yu Xuanxuan's child, even taking away his child's last name? Forgive Rong Hee for his betrayal.
If you know that the child is still there, what else can't you forgive?
"Xiao Jin, is it okay to forgive Daddy? Even if you still blame me, wake up and tell me, Xiao Jin."
"Your Majesty, it's time for your Highness to change her medicine." Wu Guo came into the inner room carrying a cotton cloth and a medicine bottle. Since His Highness came back, the Emperor ordered that no one should enter the inner room, except the imperial doctor Xu Fang and Wu Guo. spare.And the emperor himself, apart from going to court and going to the imperial study to deal with some urgent matters, was always by his side at every step.However, it has been more than half a month, but there is no sign of His Royal Highness turning around.
The imperial doctor diagnosed that the water prison was yin and cold, which would hurt the essence of a person. In addition, the young highness was tortured too much, especially the meridian was cut off at the end, which made him unable to learn any martial arts for life, and he was also unable to do heavy labor.Even if he wakes up, his lifespan will be shortened after all.
And said that His Royal Highness is already... more than a month pregnant.The child was barely saved, but the little Highness was also pregnant with the child due to excessive body wear and tear, and the chance of waking up became increasingly slim.
These days, they are just hung with some precious medicinal materials.
Nangong Qiuhu untied his clothes, gently removed the old cotton cloth, applied the medicine on it, and then carefully wrapped the new cotton cloth strips. He was used to it these days and he did a good job. Every time he changed the medicine, Seeing these shocking scars told him how much he had done to his children.
"The weather outside is very good today. Daddy, let's go out to bask in the sun with Xiaojin in his arms. Why is Xiaojin still awake?" Nangong Qiuhu lowered his head and kissed his forehead, which was cold.
"Your Majesty, today is the wedding day of His Highness the Eldest Princess, do you want to go there?" Wu Guo carefully asked for instructions.
"I can't go on. I accompanied Xiao Jin to the warm pavilion for a meeting. I saw him there for the first time when he entered the palace. At that time, I thought, why isn't such a handsome child my child?" Nangong Qiuhu said with a smile, wrapped her in the fur, and put it in her arms carefully.
Wu Guo's heart ached, Your Majesty, why are you lying to yourself? One month has passed, and the imperial doctor said that unless there is a miracle, His Royal Highness will never wake up.
"The day Xiao Jin was born, the weather was also very good, just like today, she didn't cry or make trouble, she just slept quietly in my arms." Nangong Qiuhu reached into his hand and felt the body of the child in his arms It's getting colder and colder, and my heart is getting colder.
"Little Jin, I haven't been with you well in these years. When you leave, Dad will walk with you. Dad is afraid that you will walk alone. The road is too dark and you will be afraid."
"From now on, I will always be with Xiaojin."
"Your Majesty!" Hearing this, Wu Guo no longer cared about the rules, kneeling on the ground and begging, "Your Majesty, Your Highness won't want to see you like this, even if it's for Your Highness, I have to hold on."
"The emperor of mine has been in office for 20 years. Over the years, Daning has been regarded as Haiyan, Heqing, and the government is clear. I am also worthy of this country. I have been sorry for this child all these years. I gave birth to him, but I have not done enough. Responsibility of upbringing, Old Wu, you have been by my side all these years, you should understand, Rongxi is gone, and now Xiaojin is leaving too, what do I care about in this world? Don't worry about other things. After Zhen and Xiaojin have left, you can take Yunzheng to the third grid behind the dragon chair in the imperial study to take out the imperial decree and let Jingshen ascend the throne. This throne belonged to Jiang Cheng in the past. Over the years, Jingshen has been able to take charge of it alone, let him find a way to solve the rest." If he hadn't fought for the throne back then, but returned to Linyang with Rongxi, would everything be different now?What's the use of thinking about it now, now that he can always be with his lost and recovered child, what extravagant hope does he have?
Nangong Qiuhu smiled contentedly, and hugged the child tightly in his arms. The garden was full of sunlight, and today's weather is really good.
Xiao Jin, Daddy will not let go of your hand this time, and will always hold you.
Rong Jin, who was originally in a coma, had tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.
"Your Majesty, the Grand Tutor is asking to see you." Wu Guo, who had been kicked out of the warm pavilion just now, said outside.
"No," Nangong Qiuhu refused.
"Your Majesty, the Taifu said that there is a way to save His Highness." Wu Guo hastily added.
"What?" Nangong Qiuhu changed his expression and said, "Let him in."
"Ling Yun, do you think there is a way to save Xiaojin?" Nangong Qiuhu asked without waiting for him to salute.
"Your Majesty, it's not me, is there another strange person?" Mo Lingyun glanced at the posture of the two of them touching each other, and didn't say much, instead, he dodged the indifferent young man who had been following him with his head down, and stepped forward to salute.
"Cao Min Shao Yi sees the emperor."
"Shao Yi?" Nangong Qiuhu frowned slightly and said, "How can you be sure that you can save people?"
Nangong Qiuhu saw that he had a calloused mouth, and his steps were light. He obviously possessed martial arts, but he didn't see anything that indicated that he also had superb medical skills.
"The wife of Caomin's family is proficient in medicine. She once gave Caomin two blood jade pills, which are said to have the effect of bringing the dead back to life." The indifferent young man said neither humble nor overbearing.
"Blood Jade Pill?" Nangong Qiuhu had heard about this medicine in books such as Miscellaneous Studies. According to legend, it was obtained from the heart blood of a medicine man who had taken many precious medicinal materials since childhood.He always thought it was a legend. Could it be that this medicine really exists in the world?
"Reporting to the emperor, I just heard about it." Mo Lingyun received the questioning look from the emperor, and replied.After thinking for a while, he said, "Your Majesty, why not give it a try now that the young prince is like this?"
Nangong Qiuhu understood what Mo Lingyun was thinking, that a dead horse should be treated as a living horse doctor. Although the reasoning was true, but his child was said so, he couldn't help but look sharp.
"Then let's try it?" Nangong Qiuhu said.
The indifferent young man took out a small round red lacquer box from his pocket. When he opened it, there were two blood-red pills the size of longan placed side by side. Although they were made of blood, they didn't smell like blood. .
Nangong Qiuhu hesitated for a moment, took out one of them, crushed it, put it in Rong Jin's mouth, picked up the cup and fed some water.Squeezing his throat and back, he finally let him swallow it.
Rong Jin seemed to be choking, and coughed lightly.
"Congratulations to your majesty, little prince, you are still conscious and able to swallow, I think I will wake up soon after taking this blood jade pill again." Mo Lingyun said.
Nangong Qiuhu also had a happy expression on his face, and said: "I accept your auspicious words, I hope so."
Sure enough, on the second day, Rong Jin woke up, took it again the next day, and finally her complexion gradually improved.In March, when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, it is almost time to get out of bed and walk around slowly.
It's just that the child in Rong Jin's stomach is four months old at this time, and it can be covered up a little bit at this time, but when the weather gets warmer and the clothes are lighter, it will be difficult to cover up.
Rong Jin asked himself that after living two lives, although he knew that this body could conceive children, but one day the child was really in his stomach, he suddenly felt very at a loss.
He is now living in the Zichen Palace in Jingshen, Nangong. Although he can share the same bed, sleep and eat with that person when he is unconscious, but waking up is another matter. He was conscious for a while, He clearly knew that someone beside him was always with him, calling him back.
Nangong Qiuhu came to see him as soon as he was in the morning, and saw him sitting in front of the window, staring at his stomach in a daze, and sighed slightly, just like him at that time, I couldn't accept it, at first.
"Little Hibiscus?" Nangong Qiuhu approached and called softly.
"Ah?" Rong Jin unconsciously agreed, then realized, stood up quickly and said, "Are you here?"
Nangong Qiuhu smiled helplessly. After so long, he also told Xiaojin everything. The child seemed to believe him, but he never changed his words. The child forgives him so quickly, as long as the child is by his side, he will always have a chance to make amends.
But thinking of today's morning, his face can't help but get a little gloomy.Jingshen in Beijiang has completely repelled Beiyuan's army, and Beiyuan has also sent envoys to Shengjing to discuss conditions, but their only condition is to hand over the murderer who killed Beiyuan's prince, although he also knows that this matter From the beginning to the end, the queen and the gang were behind the manipulation, but the knife was indeed pierced by Xiao Jin, and there was no evidence to prove that Prince Beiyuan was tampered with by anyone afterwards.
In any case, Xiao Jin cannot be handed over.
Now that this is decided, it is necessary to think about the method of liberation.Otherwise, even if Xiao Jin is saved, it will inevitably make him a sinner of Daning.This is not what he wants to see.
"Is there anything going on this morning?" Seeing him, Rong Jin frowned.
"It's nothing major. It's just too trivial and annoying," Nangong Qiuhu pulled him to the dinner table.
Hearing what he said, Rong Jin knew that he didn't want to talk about these things, so she kept silent.
These days, after he came down to court, he always came to Zichen Palace to have breakfast with Xiao Jin, and the palace people were already used to preparing breakfast for the two of them together.
"You don't belong to yourself now, you should eat more." When the two of them eat together, Nangong Qiuhu will dismiss the palace servants instead of serving them. He knows Xiaojin doesn't want others to see him now look.
Seeing the bowl of chicken soup in front of him, Rong Jin really didn't want to be served as a pregnant woman, but his current body happened to be like this.
Seeing his hesitation, Nangong Qiuhu smiled lightly and said: "I was more surprised than you when I knew there might be a child in my stomach. My first reaction was to kill Rongxi. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't will conceive and bear children like a woman."
Hearing this, Rong Jin felt the same way. Every time he saw his stomach, he would think that if Nangong Jingshen was by his side now, he would wish to stab him twice to vent his hatred.
Nangong Qiuhu knew what he was thinking from the way he looked.There was a faint smile in his eyes, but he couldn't show it too much, and he said: "But when I see you, I won't complain about anything, this is my own child, no matter how much others give birth to you, I won't let you down." Can't compare to this."
is that so?Will he like this kid very much in the future?But now he doesn't even have the courage to accept him.
"If you really don't want to keep him, I can also prepare medicine for you." Nangong Qiuhu added seemingly casually: "By the way, the imperial doctor diagnosed that you are pregnant with twins."
So there are two little lives in it?Rong Jin touched his stomach, his expression suddenly changed, he just felt his stomach move.Is the child moving?
"The four-month-old child should feel it? You have to make a decision as soon as possible, and it will be even more difficult to deal with it when it gets older." Nangong Qiuhu said.
"Let me think about it again." This is his child, how can he bear it, but if not, is it really going to be born?
Seeing him struggling, Nangong Qiuhu didn't urge him, but she knew in her heart that the child should be saved.
That should be the most peaceful relationship between the two fathers and sons in the past ten years.
Afterwards, the empress came to accuse him of wreaking havoc in the harem, and confused the emperor, regardless of Daning's safety, just to keep him alone, and there was a scene of him committing suicide in the hall later.Scattering the soul to poison, but it has a characteristic, the person with the heart-protecting Gu just makes him enter a state of suspended animation at twelve o'clock.
At that time, his mother took out the heart-protecting and life-saving Gu that was raised in his body since he was a child, and finally became ill and passed away in his prime. At that time, the father who took him to find his mother for help would feel guilty all his life, and he would never leave his mother for the rest of his life. abandoned.
Even when he was seriously ill at the end, the blood jade pill brought by Ming Ting was also made by his mother taking the sick body and taking the blood from her own heart, just in case he would encounter an accident in the capital, just in case.
With such a heavy kindness, how can he stay by that person's side with peace of mind and enjoy the family relationship between father and son?The mother's illness worsened in the end, so how could there be no reason for that accident.
He wanted to forgive, but he couldn't.
But for the words he heard in a coma, he was really worried that he would really feel guilty all the time, and soon asked someone to bring him a message.
There is also Nangong Jingshen, if he is not tempted at all, he can't justify himself, but he is not sure if he really likes it, or it is just a temporary illusion.And how long can Nangong Jingshen persist in her attachment to him?
Everything will be proved by time.
After he feigned death, Mrs. Mo and Chen Feng, the general who guarded the Vermilion Bird Gate, met him for inspection the first time they entered the palace with Nangong Jingshen, and the two had been in contact since then.His father had once saved his life, and it was thanks to him that he was able to get out of the palace.Taifu Mo proposed to live in Muhan for more than four months. At that time, his stomach could no longer bear the long-term travel, and he was afraid that if his possessions were exposed near the capital, his previous efforts would be wasted. In the end, he chose Muhan Residence because it was close enough to the capital, where the royal family lived. No one went in to check the forbidden area, and it was also close to the Purple Bamboo Garden of the eldest princess. The so-called most dangerous place was often the safest place.
Xiao Mo, Ming Ting, and Butler Mo stayed with him until Jing Zhi and Xing Zhi were born.
Just in case, and in order to leave the circle of right and wrong as soon as possible, Taifu Mo changed his name to Mo Nanjin, and returned to his hometown in Huzhou as his nephew.It's just that when passing by Nanshan Town, he met Tian Cheng and stayed.until now.
Later, I heard that Nangong Jingshen made great achievements in the northern border, and soon ascended the throne as emperor after returning to Beijing, but the whereabouts of Emperor Tongxi became a mystery to the world.
"Master, why did you fall asleep here?" Xiao Mo shouted as soon as he entered the door.Really, the young master knew that he was not in good health, so he was still sleeping in the courtyard in this cool night.
"The show is over?" Rong Jin asked.
"Well, they are all gone, and the troupe has also dispersed? Young master, do you mean they will come again during the Mid-Autumn Festival next year?"
"Yes?"
"..."
The voices of the two gradually disappeared in the moonlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival in Nanshan Town.
[Volume [-]: The World is Quiet]
Rumor has it that because of Rong Jin's poor health, the emperor ate together at court, slept together at night, and even changed clothes and washed personal matters without leaving others. The reason for Rong Jin.All of a sudden, the government and the public were shocked.
The emperor's act that was out of common sense this time caused many speculations. For a while, rumors were flying all over the sky. This time, the emperor sent Nangong Jingshen to garrison the northern border in the case of the Beiyuan prince, which seemed to have become ambiguous in this rumor.
Knowing how to speculate on the holy will, seeing that Mr. Mo, who was always close to the emperor, did not come out to speak, he could not figure it out, so he calmed down temporarily and watched the development of the situation quietly.
Several self-reliant veterans, especially the empress' father, the prime minister Liu Yuanmin, had made several submissions. In addition to prosecuting Rong Jin for killing Prince Beiyuan, there was one more thing: seducing the emperor and adulterating the harem.In the harem, there have always been many beautiful men serving them, but they are all exclusive palaces, and it is forbidden to communicate with the concubines in the harem. Now Rong Jin not only lives in the harem openly, but also lives in the Hall of Harmony, where only the emperor can live. It's not big, but after several visits, the emperor always stayed in the middle and did not say anything. One time, the emperor and the important ministers of the court were discussing matters in the imperial study, and Prime Minister Liu brought up the old matter again. On the ground, smashed to pieces, everyone knew about his master's temperament. Since then, the courtiers have been silent.
After the beginning of spring in February, the most busy thing in the court is the marriage of the eldest princess. The current emperor has been on the throne for 20 years, but the harem has few heirs. The object is the son of the Eldest Princess, the majestic king of the county. The wedding date is set on February 23. The Ministry of Rites has been busy with this matter since the beginning of the year. Seeing that the wedding date is just around the corner, there is another problem with the Eldest Princess.
"Princess, is this the third wedding dress sent by the Garment Bureau of the Inner Palace this month? It can't be returned anymore. It's already February [-]th today, and it's too late to make the next one." Princess's personal maid Xia Lu picked up the vermilion wedding gown that had been thrown on the ground, saw the helpless expression of the female officer of the Garment Bureau standing beside her, and softly comforted her.Her aunt was in the clothing bureau, so she knew clearly that the princess's wedding dress was very important, and it would take seven or eight days for dozens of female workers to work day and night to make a whole wedding dress.This is the seventh piece of the princess, and the third this month.
"I don't care. I'm going to get married. Why doesn't my father come to see me? I'm not married anymore. Take it away." Nangong Qingyun angrily snatched the wedding dress from Xia Lu's hand, threw it on the ground and stepped on it. After a few feet, I was still puzzled, and the more I thought about it, the more wronged I became, and I simply lay down on the bed and cried.
"Empress..." Xia Lu was worried and didn't know what to do.
The queen shook her head, signaling her to be silent, and sat down on the other side of the bed.
"Who messed with our most precious Yun'er?" The queen stroked her hair lovingly.
"Mother's queen?" Nangong Qingyun was even more aggrieved when she saw her mother coming, she lay in the queen's arms and cried, "I will see my father once in the next year, and today I will go to see my father again." Your Majesty, Your Royal Father sent someone to say that you are busy with something important and you don’t have time to see me. It’s that Rong Jin. Ever since he moved into your Royal Father’s bedroom, your Royal Father has not seen us. Queen Mother, you go and tell your Royal Father Drive Rong Jin out, he is so shameless, he has confused brother Jingshen, and now he is confusing father and mother, you go and drive him out of the palace, you and father are deeply in love with each other, father will definitely listen to you gone."
Empress Liu took off her handkerchief and wiped away the tears on her daughter's face.
The queen smiled wryly twice, did Yun'er think she didn't go?A few days after the emperor carried Rong Jin into the Taihe Palace, he went there, but he was stopped outside the first few times and never went in at all, but he saw him the last time he went.
It was a warm sunny day, and the camellias were in full bloom in the small garden of the Taihe Palace. There was a warm couch under the tree. Rong Jin seemed to be asleep, with a ruddy and peaceful face. She was wrapped in a pure white fox fur and embraced by the emperor. During the day, the emperor read a book in his ear, and from time to time twirled the tea petals that fell in Rong Jin's hair. The beautiful and harmonious scenes could be directly drawn into the painting.Seeing her coming in, he just glanced at him indifferently, whispered something in Rong Jin's ear, hugged Rong Jin horizontally, and went into the room without looking back.
She often thinks, is all this really fate?She used all means to drive away Rong Xi back then, is it his son's turn to take revenge on her now?
When she was young, she was also a well-known beauty in the capital, and her father was a prime minister with great power. Since she was born, countless people have come to propose marriage, but at that time she entered the palace and met Nangong Qiuhu, who was still the fourth prince at that time. teenager.
The father originally wanted to marry the fifth prince, Nangong Jiangcheng, who was also the legitimate son of the empress at that time, but couldn't bear her request, and chose to support the fourth prince, Nangong Qiuhu, who was born by Concubine Ying, and she also became the fourth prince's wife logically. The main concubine, after the big wedding, the two respected each other as guests. Although there was no sweet intimacy between newlyweds, he did not accept the side concubine either.
She thought that his temperament was naturally indifferent. Since it was her own choice, it was okay for the two of them to live like this for the rest of their lives. Until one day, when she saw that scene in the study, she always thought that the cold-tempered husband was in another Under the body of a man, she warmly greeted her, but she still comforted herself that her husband aspired to the throne, and Rong Xi held a heavy army, so maybe it was just flattery to win Rong Xi's support.
When he comes to the throne, she is the rightful queen, but what is his year name?It's Tongxi.Sit on an equal footing with Rong Xi and share this world?Do you stay in the harem every day and guard your body for Rong Xi?He thought that his work was perfect, and the world would not know about that evil seed back then. Maybe the world didn't know, but she knew that that evil seed was conceived by his husband, the emperor of Daning, who lay under a man. The child is like an eyeball, and she wants that child to die badly. She ordered someone to feed the three-month-old baby Sanhun, and inserted Nangong Xilan between the two with one hand, separating the two step by step. The two of them were equally proud and didn't bother to explain, she wouldn't succeed either.
Although the two had Qingyun again later, he seldom set foot in his Fengning Palace, instead he began to hang out in the harem. She added abortion pills to every concubine he had ever trusted, and since then nothing has come out of the harem.
The only two children in the harem are the sons and daughters of the main palace, but he doesn't care about Jingnian and loves Qingyun too much. On the contrary, Nangong Jingshen took him by his side and cultivated them carefully. Today's empress dowager She is also Nangong Jingshen's pro-grandmother, who loves him deeply, and has always had great prestige in the Nangong clan. She has been reckless for many years and lacks resourcefulness, so she can't compete with Nangong Jingshen. , These two children make her worry all the time.
The first time she saw Rong Jin, she hated him. She hated Rong Jin's somewhat similar face to Rong Xi.If she had the opportunity to get rid of Rong Jin and Nangong Jingshen at the same time, of course she would not let it go.
But now, not only did one of the two not get rid of, but Nangong Jingshen took control of the northern border military power.Let Rong Jin live in the Hall of Supreme Harmony again.
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what are you thinking?
Rongxi is dead, just a son with a somewhat similar face, is it enough to make you fascinated?
"Queen, queen, what are you thinking?" The queen's face was so scary just now, she was so scared that she didn't dare to cry.
The queen smiled and said, "Don't worry about Rong Jin's affairs. Be your bride at ease, and the queen mother will take care of other things."
"But the queen mother..." Nangong Qingyun still wanted to say a few words coquettishly, but seeing the cold expression on the queen mother's face, she shut up sensibly.
"If you don't like this wedding dress, just choose one from the previous ones. It will be too late to do it again." The queen calmed down and persuaded.Her own daughter also understands that it's not about the wedding dress at all, it's about being angry with her father.
"Then I'll choose the first one, I like that one very much."
This matter was suspended. As for the day of Nangong Qingyun's wedding, because the emperor saw her off in the future, she stayed in the Hall of Peaceful Harmony to accompany Rong Jin instead, and the big wedding ceremony is another story.
In the Hall of Harmony.
The north is cold, even in spring, there are still two snowfalls, and the ground dragon in the Hall of Supreme Harmony is still warm.
On the large dragon bed lay a young boy, wearing a fine white satin inner shirt, with a delicate face and a peaceful expression, as if he was sleeping soundly, but where the inner shirt could not cover, there were faint traces of cotton bandaging, and the clothes placed outside the quilt His hands and fingers were also wrapped in cotton cloth.
Nangong Qiuhu put a desk beside the bed.Approve a few memorials, and then look back at the child who is still unconscious. It has been more than half a month. He has been in a coma since he came back from his arms. He had a high fever at the beginning, and then he kept crying for pain. His only child. The three-month-old was taken away by Rong Xi and has never been seen again.
They are already this big, and they are still born with such good looks.Slender fingers brushed the hair on his forehead.
For so many years, he has always thought that heaven and man are separated, but he is so close to him.He has even been by his side these past few months, but he doesn't know anything about it, and let the child endure this kind of suffering.He should have had the most honorable position in the world, live his life safely, if he wanted, even the throne would be his.After all, his biological son was the emperor of this dynasty, and his father was a high-ranking prince in Daning.But now he can only sleep soundlessly here.
He should have thought of it earlier. At that time, the child said in his stomach that Rong Xi had said that in the future, this child, regardless of gender, would be named after Hibiscus, but back then he thought his child had passed away, and Rong Xi brought it back. How could he be reconciled to losing his and Yu Xuanxuan's child, even taking away his child's last name? Forgive Rong Hee for his betrayal.
If you know that the child is still there, what else can't you forgive?
"Xiao Jin, is it okay to forgive Daddy? Even if you still blame me, wake up and tell me, Xiao Jin."
"Your Majesty, it's time for your Highness to change her medicine." Wu Guo came into the inner room carrying a cotton cloth and a medicine bottle. Since His Highness came back, the Emperor ordered that no one should enter the inner room, except the imperial doctor Xu Fang and Wu Guo. spare.And the emperor himself, apart from going to court and going to the imperial study to deal with some urgent matters, was always by his side at every step.However, it has been more than half a month, but there is no sign of His Royal Highness turning around.
The imperial doctor diagnosed that the water prison was yin and cold, which would hurt the essence of a person. In addition, the young highness was tortured too much, especially the meridian was cut off at the end, which made him unable to learn any martial arts for life, and he was also unable to do heavy labor.Even if he wakes up, his lifespan will be shortened after all.
And said that His Royal Highness is already... more than a month pregnant.The child was barely saved, but the little Highness was also pregnant with the child due to excessive body wear and tear, and the chance of waking up became increasingly slim.
These days, they are just hung with some precious medicinal materials.
Nangong Qiuhu untied his clothes, gently removed the old cotton cloth, applied the medicine on it, and then carefully wrapped the new cotton cloth strips. He was used to it these days and he did a good job. Every time he changed the medicine, Seeing these shocking scars told him how much he had done to his children.
"The weather outside is very good today. Daddy, let's go out to bask in the sun with Xiaojin in his arms. Why is Xiaojin still awake?" Nangong Qiuhu lowered his head and kissed his forehead, which was cold.
"Your Majesty, today is the wedding day of His Highness the Eldest Princess, do you want to go there?" Wu Guo carefully asked for instructions.
"I can't go on. I accompanied Xiao Jin to the warm pavilion for a meeting. I saw him there for the first time when he entered the palace. At that time, I thought, why isn't such a handsome child my child?" Nangong Qiuhu said with a smile, wrapped her in the fur, and put it in her arms carefully.
Wu Guo's heart ached, Your Majesty, why are you lying to yourself? One month has passed, and the imperial doctor said that unless there is a miracle, His Royal Highness will never wake up.
"The day Xiao Jin was born, the weather was also very good, just like today, she didn't cry or make trouble, she just slept quietly in my arms." Nangong Qiuhu reached into his hand and felt the body of the child in his arms It's getting colder and colder, and my heart is getting colder.
"Little Jin, I haven't been with you well in these years. When you leave, Dad will walk with you. Dad is afraid that you will walk alone. The road is too dark and you will be afraid."
"From now on, I will always be with Xiaojin."
"Your Majesty!" Hearing this, Wu Guo no longer cared about the rules, kneeling on the ground and begging, "Your Majesty, Your Highness won't want to see you like this, even if it's for Your Highness, I have to hold on."
"The emperor of mine has been in office for 20 years. Over the years, Daning has been regarded as Haiyan, Heqing, and the government is clear. I am also worthy of this country. I have been sorry for this child all these years. I gave birth to him, but I have not done enough. Responsibility of upbringing, Old Wu, you have been by my side all these years, you should understand, Rongxi is gone, and now Xiaojin is leaving too, what do I care about in this world? Don't worry about other things. After Zhen and Xiaojin have left, you can take Yunzheng to the third grid behind the dragon chair in the imperial study to take out the imperial decree and let Jingshen ascend the throne. This throne belonged to Jiang Cheng in the past. Over the years, Jingshen has been able to take charge of it alone, let him find a way to solve the rest." If he hadn't fought for the throne back then, but returned to Linyang with Rongxi, would everything be different now?What's the use of thinking about it now, now that he can always be with his lost and recovered child, what extravagant hope does he have?
Nangong Qiuhu smiled contentedly, and hugged the child tightly in his arms. The garden was full of sunlight, and today's weather is really good.
Xiao Jin, Daddy will not let go of your hand this time, and will always hold you.
Rong Jin, who was originally in a coma, had tears streaming from the corners of his eyes.
"Your Majesty, the Grand Tutor is asking to see you." Wu Guo, who had been kicked out of the warm pavilion just now, said outside.
"No," Nangong Qiuhu refused.
"Your Majesty, the Taifu said that there is a way to save His Highness." Wu Guo hastily added.
"What?" Nangong Qiuhu changed his expression and said, "Let him in."
"Ling Yun, do you think there is a way to save Xiaojin?" Nangong Qiuhu asked without waiting for him to salute.
"Your Majesty, it's not me, is there another strange person?" Mo Lingyun glanced at the posture of the two of them touching each other, and didn't say much, instead, he dodged the indifferent young man who had been following him with his head down, and stepped forward to salute.
"Cao Min Shao Yi sees the emperor."
"Shao Yi?" Nangong Qiuhu frowned slightly and said, "How can you be sure that you can save people?"
Nangong Qiuhu saw that he had a calloused mouth, and his steps were light. He obviously possessed martial arts, but he didn't see anything that indicated that he also had superb medical skills.
"The wife of Caomin's family is proficient in medicine. She once gave Caomin two blood jade pills, which are said to have the effect of bringing the dead back to life." The indifferent young man said neither humble nor overbearing.
"Blood Jade Pill?" Nangong Qiuhu had heard about this medicine in books such as Miscellaneous Studies. According to legend, it was obtained from the heart blood of a medicine man who had taken many precious medicinal materials since childhood.He always thought it was a legend. Could it be that this medicine really exists in the world?
"Reporting to the emperor, I just heard about it." Mo Lingyun received the questioning look from the emperor, and replied.After thinking for a while, he said, "Your Majesty, why not give it a try now that the young prince is like this?"
Nangong Qiuhu understood what Mo Lingyun was thinking, that a dead horse should be treated as a living horse doctor. Although the reasoning was true, but his child was said so, he couldn't help but look sharp.
"Then let's try it?" Nangong Qiuhu said.
The indifferent young man took out a small round red lacquer box from his pocket. When he opened it, there were two blood-red pills the size of longan placed side by side. Although they were made of blood, they didn't smell like blood. .
Nangong Qiuhu hesitated for a moment, took out one of them, crushed it, put it in Rong Jin's mouth, picked up the cup and fed some water.Squeezing his throat and back, he finally let him swallow it.
Rong Jin seemed to be choking, and coughed lightly.
"Congratulations to your majesty, little prince, you are still conscious and able to swallow, I think I will wake up soon after taking this blood jade pill again." Mo Lingyun said.
Nangong Qiuhu also had a happy expression on his face, and said: "I accept your auspicious words, I hope so."
Sure enough, on the second day, Rong Jin woke up, took it again the next day, and finally her complexion gradually improved.In March, when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, it is almost time to get out of bed and walk around slowly.
It's just that the child in Rong Jin's stomach is four months old at this time, and it can be covered up a little bit at this time, but when the weather gets warmer and the clothes are lighter, it will be difficult to cover up.
Rong Jin asked himself that after living two lives, although he knew that this body could conceive children, but one day the child was really in his stomach, he suddenly felt very at a loss.
He is now living in the Zichen Palace in Jingshen, Nangong. Although he can share the same bed, sleep and eat with that person when he is unconscious, but waking up is another matter. He was conscious for a while, He clearly knew that someone beside him was always with him, calling him back.
Nangong Qiuhu came to see him as soon as he was in the morning, and saw him sitting in front of the window, staring at his stomach in a daze, and sighed slightly, just like him at that time, I couldn't accept it, at first.
"Little Hibiscus?" Nangong Qiuhu approached and called softly.
"Ah?" Rong Jin unconsciously agreed, then realized, stood up quickly and said, "Are you here?"
Nangong Qiuhu smiled helplessly. After so long, he also told Xiaojin everything. The child seemed to believe him, but he never changed his words. The child forgives him so quickly, as long as the child is by his side, he will always have a chance to make amends.
But thinking of today's morning, his face can't help but get a little gloomy.Jingshen in Beijiang has completely repelled Beiyuan's army, and Beiyuan has also sent envoys to Shengjing to discuss conditions, but their only condition is to hand over the murderer who killed Beiyuan's prince, although he also knows that this matter From the beginning to the end, the queen and the gang were behind the manipulation, but the knife was indeed pierced by Xiao Jin, and there was no evidence to prove that Prince Beiyuan was tampered with by anyone afterwards.
In any case, Xiao Jin cannot be handed over.
Now that this is decided, it is necessary to think about the method of liberation.Otherwise, even if Xiao Jin is saved, it will inevitably make him a sinner of Daning.This is not what he wants to see.
"Is there anything going on this morning?" Seeing him, Rong Jin frowned.
"It's nothing major. It's just too trivial and annoying," Nangong Qiuhu pulled him to the dinner table.
Hearing what he said, Rong Jin knew that he didn't want to talk about these things, so she kept silent.
These days, after he came down to court, he always came to Zichen Palace to have breakfast with Xiao Jin, and the palace people were already used to preparing breakfast for the two of them together.
"You don't belong to yourself now, you should eat more." When the two of them eat together, Nangong Qiuhu will dismiss the palace servants instead of serving them. He knows Xiaojin doesn't want others to see him now look.
Seeing the bowl of chicken soup in front of him, Rong Jin really didn't want to be served as a pregnant woman, but his current body happened to be like this.
Seeing his hesitation, Nangong Qiuhu smiled lightly and said: "I was more surprised than you when I knew there might be a child in my stomach. My first reaction was to kill Rongxi. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't will conceive and bear children like a woman."
Hearing this, Rong Jin felt the same way. Every time he saw his stomach, he would think that if Nangong Jingshen was by his side now, he would wish to stab him twice to vent his hatred.
Nangong Qiuhu knew what he was thinking from the way he looked.There was a faint smile in his eyes, but he couldn't show it too much, and he said: "But when I see you, I won't complain about anything, this is my own child, no matter how much others give birth to you, I won't let you down." Can't compare to this."
is that so?Will he like this kid very much in the future?But now he doesn't even have the courage to accept him.
"If you really don't want to keep him, I can also prepare medicine for you." Nangong Qiuhu added seemingly casually: "By the way, the imperial doctor diagnosed that you are pregnant with twins."
So there are two little lives in it?Rong Jin touched his stomach, his expression suddenly changed, he just felt his stomach move.Is the child moving?
"The four-month-old child should feel it? You have to make a decision as soon as possible, and it will be even more difficult to deal with it when it gets older." Nangong Qiuhu said.
"Let me think about it again." This is his child, how can he bear it, but if not, is it really going to be born?
Seeing him struggling, Nangong Qiuhu didn't urge him, but she knew in her heart that the child should be saved.
That should be the most peaceful relationship between the two fathers and sons in the past ten years.
Afterwards, the empress came to accuse him of wreaking havoc in the harem, and confused the emperor, regardless of Daning's safety, just to keep him alone, and there was a scene of him committing suicide in the hall later.Scattering the soul to poison, but it has a characteristic, the person with the heart-protecting Gu just makes him enter a state of suspended animation at twelve o'clock.
At that time, his mother took out the heart-protecting and life-saving Gu that was raised in his body since he was a child, and finally became ill and passed away in his prime. At that time, the father who took him to find his mother for help would feel guilty all his life, and he would never leave his mother for the rest of his life. abandoned.
Even when he was seriously ill at the end, the blood jade pill brought by Ming Ting was also made by his mother taking the sick body and taking the blood from her own heart, just in case he would encounter an accident in the capital, just in case.
With such a heavy kindness, how can he stay by that person's side with peace of mind and enjoy the family relationship between father and son?The mother's illness worsened in the end, so how could there be no reason for that accident.
He wanted to forgive, but he couldn't.
But for the words he heard in a coma, he was really worried that he would really feel guilty all the time, and soon asked someone to bring him a message.
There is also Nangong Jingshen, if he is not tempted at all, he can't justify himself, but he is not sure if he really likes it, or it is just a temporary illusion.And how long can Nangong Jingshen persist in her attachment to him?
Everything will be proved by time.
After he feigned death, Mrs. Mo and Chen Feng, the general who guarded the Vermilion Bird Gate, met him for inspection the first time they entered the palace with Nangong Jingshen, and the two had been in contact since then.His father had once saved his life, and it was thanks to him that he was able to get out of the palace.Taifu Mo proposed to live in Muhan for more than four months. At that time, his stomach could no longer bear the long-term travel, and he was afraid that if his possessions were exposed near the capital, his previous efforts would be wasted. In the end, he chose Muhan Residence because it was close enough to the capital, where the royal family lived. No one went in to check the forbidden area, and it was also close to the Purple Bamboo Garden of the eldest princess. The so-called most dangerous place was often the safest place.
Xiao Mo, Ming Ting, and Butler Mo stayed with him until Jing Zhi and Xing Zhi were born.
Just in case, and in order to leave the circle of right and wrong as soon as possible, Taifu Mo changed his name to Mo Nanjin, and returned to his hometown in Huzhou as his nephew.It's just that when passing by Nanshan Town, he met Tian Cheng and stayed.until now.
Later, I heard that Nangong Jingshen made great achievements in the northern border, and soon ascended the throne as emperor after returning to Beijing, but the whereabouts of Emperor Tongxi became a mystery to the world.
"Master, why did you fall asleep here?" Xiao Mo shouted as soon as he entered the door.Really, the young master knew that he was not in good health, so he was still sleeping in the courtyard in this cool night.
"The show is over?" Rong Jin asked.
"Well, they are all gone, and the troupe has also dispersed? Young master, do you mean they will come again during the Mid-Autumn Festival next year?"
"Yes?"
"..."
The voices of the two gradually disappeared in the moonlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival in Nanshan Town.
