Jia Yao of the Red Chamber

Chapter 66 Deli Prince

In the dark palace, on the high throne.A person sat for a long time.He didn't move until the candles were extinguished in the deepest palace in the imperial city.

A person's name was rolling in his throat, but he still couldn't spit it out.The emotions that have been aroused since seeing that newborn young face at night that is five points similar to that person can no longer be suppressed at this time, flooding into a tide in my heart, drowning him from head to toe...

sit still.sit still.From the dark night, to the silence, the New Year's bell suddenly came to mind, and then to the glimmer of light in the dead hall, and then the red clouds dyed the sky, from a trace to a patch, and then the sky brightened.He didn't make any movement sounds.If it weren't for the intense pain in those eyes that were slightly cloudy due to age, he would have looked as if he had fallen asleep sitting up.

Yuan'er...Yuan'er...he shouted in his heart to the boy who was running farther and farther on the horse, wait for his brother...but he just watched him helplessly like thousands of times in the dark Go further and further in front of yourself.Then never see again.

never see again...

Please, please look back at me... A line of hot tears ran down his old face

He seemed to feel something hot on his face.He raised his hand to touch it, and found a bright red hand...

Whose blood... yes, his blood...

Don't...don't!

His body shook violently as if he wanted to be hit hard, and he almost slipped off his high throne in the bleak morning of the first day of the new year.

It turned out that everything was just his imagination.There is no boy riding a horse with an innocent and proud smile on his face, there is no beautiful and shocking grassland, and there is no blood splashed on his face.Nothing at all.Only himself.

Only himself, sitting on the high throne.Lonely watching the bell of the new year for another year.The people guarding the palace who have different thoughts but seem to be in harmony with each other fall asleep and wake up again.Also guarding the person he loves the most in his dreams coming and going again and again.Asking again and again, big brother, why did you agree with me to leave the capital...why did you agree with me to leave the capital...why did you agree with me to leave you...

Why did he agree, and he left... From then on, heaven and man, yin and yang, were separated, and they didn't know each other after years of life and death. Only then did they understand the reason for the momentary shock, and it was too late to make a decision, but they had already received the news that they would never see each other again.

Give me another chance, please?Please, give me one more chance, please?All these years, I've had enough, I can't take it anymore...

"Your Majesty?" The old eunuch, who was dying like him, asked cautiously outside the door.

He raised his hand and wiped his face heavily, wiping away the tears that had already cooled down on his hands.The palm of his hand did not leave the resolute face that had long been blurred by the years, and he still blocked his eyes, as if he was no longer able to wear a dragon robe and strategize with majesty.But in the end, he sighed heavily, and put down his right hand with the white jade finger, "Wu Zhiyuan, come in and serve me."

He still has to hold on.Even if thousands of people complain and thousands of people are perfunctory, he will always stand in his position, and wait until the tides come and go and the dust settles, and all those who are not willing to be manipulated finally stand up maturely...or knock him down, and then he can Relax and leave.He took off the dragon robe that was holding down his footsteps, put on the attire that should be worn when riding a horse, and went to him.go to him.

Seeing the people in the palace carrying washbasins, cloth towels and new clothes and golden boots filing in, silently arranging everything, he stepped down the golden stairs steadily. "Wu Zhiyuan, ask Master Brush and Ink to wait on you first. After I finish washing, I will draw up an order."

That golden imperial decree was earth-shattering. I thought that the emperor would wait until he was very old before he was willing to draw up the position of the heir, but I didn't expect to get the news that Qin Wangfei gave birth to the emperor's eldest grandson this morning. It was the emperor's will to establish a prince announced to the world.

For an imperial decree, it is inevitable that some people will be happy and some will be sad.Some people have already expected it, some people are not reconciled to it, and some people think it should have been the case.

It is not an exaggeration for Mo Lanchang, who was newly promoted to be the prince, to say that he was suddenly hit by a gold ingot.He had already been prepared that his father would delay the establishment of himself as the prince until the next year, and even prepared himself to deal with difficulties from his brothers during the New Year's Eve.But he didn't expect that on the first day of the new year, the will to establish himself as the prince would be announced to the world.He vaguely guessed that it was because of his precious son, and it could be seen from his father's decree that his son was also made the emperor's grandson.But Mo Lanchang didn't feel that he deserved it.In terms of identity, like his elder brother, he is the legitimate son on the official jade certificate, and in these years, who is fighting for power and who is really doing practical things in his position, I believe his father also has a score in his heart.Although raising the sons one by one to see their respective xinxing performances to determine the most suitable person to be the king is still an impartial approach to serving the country with one heart.

But... Thinking of his playfulness when he was young, and hearing the maidservant of the Empress Yuan secretly muttering, "The dose of the medicine has increased again, the empress's illness is about to recover, but why does it always make people feel wrong?", Thinking of Concubine Rong always Received "similar to a queen" treatment, enjoyed a higher status than her, but couldn't even touch the edge of palace power. Thinking of the phrase "father is very satisfied with you" that his father always said to his brothers, he I feel shuddering.

Heh... But, you don't look forward to the so-called father for a long time, do you?he has a family.

Thinking of Jia Yao, who couldn't move because she had just given birth, and had no chance to put on the imperial concubine's court clothes for the first time, and thinking of the fat son who was diagnosed by the imperial doctor as healthy, and who was gratifying to watch while breastfeeding, he made people Waiting for himself to put on the apricot prince's court clothes, while looking at the mirror contentedly.

"What is the princess doing now?" He tilted his head and asked Zhiwen who was sent to serve him.

Zhi Wen lowered her head and pursed her lips with a smile, "If you go back to the prince, I don't know."

Mo Lanyan was a little surprised when she heard her say that, raised her eyebrows, "Go and serve your princess." Turning to the young eunuch with downcast eyes, he said, "Gao Shuhe, come and tie Gu's belt."

"Yes." Gao Shu walked up in two steps, and took over the work in hand from Zhiwen with a somewhat pale face.This girl, I don't know if it was her own idea or the order of the crown princess, but now the crown princess has just given birth to the prince's eldest grandson, who is favored by the emperor, and has been named the third-generation quasi-heir since she was born.His Highness the Crown Prince needs the Jia family, so he will definitely not give the Crown Princess any displeasure during this time.

Come to think of it, she had a big heart.

The paper pattern is what she meant, but she also did it because of a misunderstanding in her heart.It didn't mean much that Jia Yao sent her to serve them, but it was because the people who served them were all in the palace, and it was not convenient to call anyone to the palace casually.Jia Yao then sent a person who was used to serving to take care of Mo Lanyan's daily life and food, and she first used a maid who was also gifted by the old empress, who was also ingenious.However, Zhiwen thought that Jia Yao could not see Mo Lanyan for another month because she had just given birth, so she somehow meant to let herself be a solid pet.Therefore, there is a previous one.

Mo Lanjiu thought that there was still time left, so he went to the temple where Jia Yao was confinement.Due to the rules, he couldn't enter the inner room.Jia Yao just gave birth last night, and she is still tired now, after hearing his two warm greetings, she fell asleep again with a feeling of comfort.Mo Lanyan felt itchy in her heart, and wanted to see her eldest son.Hearing the people below say that the grandson of the emperor was still asleep, this first time father didn't feel like his mother couldn't bear to disturb him, so he stopped watching.Still excitedly asked someone to come to Dongnuange.

The little baby drank two meals of milk, and the little face seemed to have grown a bit.It was still a little red and wrinkled, but it gave off a warm and soft feeling, which made people feel that his dreams were sweet.Mo Lanzhang looked at it for a while, feeling curious in his heart, and carefully stroked the sparse, soft hair on his son's head.

The son's little fist moved, which startled the silly father.He stared at his son closely for a long while, for fear that he would wake him up.If he starts to cry, he will wake up his mother again and complain about himself.

After watching for a while, the little doll was still sleeping soundly and had no intention of waking up.

"Hold it in." The time to meet the emperor was getting closer, and Mo Lanchang couldn't delay any longer, so he reluctantly asked the nanny to carry the little baby back to his mother and his wife.

Because it is the New Year's Eve, the matter of appointing the crown prince to offer sacrifices to the ancestors has been put on hold for the time being, but today's family banquet will naturally have to be changed. It is unprecedented for the emperor to make a decree without repeated consideration and discussion. With the sudden decree, it is okay to say that the prince's court clothes were changed as a change of rules, but some already established procedures were in a hurry because of the sudden incident.

No matter how well-bred, Concubine Rong and the First Prince and the Fourth Prince will not be able to show a beaming face. Even if Mo Lanyan has made several appearances in the past year, the influence of the First Prince and the Fourth Prince has been gained. The emperor suppressed it to a certain extent, but people always have illusions in their hearts. Seeing that the will is not confirmed for a day, they have to make plans for a day.

Now it really has the result.Even if the emperor's attitude remains unquestionable for ten years.

But... there are always things that you can't get, and gestures are the most tempting, how can people be reconciled...
