The Grand Princess

Su Rongqing looked at the cup in front of him. After a long time, he reached out and held the cup in his hand, drinking the tea in the cup as if nothing had happened.

Su Ronghua sat aside watching him, and slowly said, "You and Concubine Hua Le Rou jointly planned this assassination?"

"Yes." Su Rongqing drank the water and put it on the side of the table. Su Ronghua looked at him and continued to ask, "When did you and Rou Fei join hands?"

"When His Highness Pingle established the Supervisory Department."

Hearing this, Su Ronghua closed his eyes. He slowed down for a while before finally speaking, "Do you remember the family training at home?"

"remember."

"What's the first?"

"The people of the Su clan do not participate in the controversy for the conquest."

Su Rongqing found it difficult to say every word, and Su Ronghua slowly opened his eyes: "You are in collusion with Concubine Rou, what should I do, do I need to say?"

Su Rongqing remained silent, and Su Ronghua stood up: "I will tell my father about this matter. Wait for the result."

"Big Brother," Su Rongqing stopped Su Ronghua, "Don't you ask me why?"

"What Rou Fei did is beyond my Su family's ability to calm down. No matter what you are, you have already implicated the family. I protected you in the Hongde case, but now, I can no longer protect it."

"I have my reasons."

"The wrongdoer, who has no reason?"

Su Ronghua lowered his eyes: "You have a good rest."

Su Ronghua raised his hand to open the door, Su Rongqing stopped him: "Brother, let me tell you a story."

Su Ronghua stopped by the door. After a long time, Su Rongqing's voice was very soft: "I had a dream. It is Su's future and your future. Don't you want to listen to it?"

Hearing this, Su Ronghua turned around in shock. He fixedly looked at Su Rongqing. Su Rongqing stood up, walked to the edge of the tea table calmly, and sat down on his knees.

I ignited the charcoal fire in the small stove on the table, raised his hand to take water and put it in a small pot, set it on top, then he raised his head, behind the long sandalwood table, his hair was half-turned, the ink hair hanging behind him, and his white clothes lined up. He was as thin as a bamboo, kneeling straight and upright.

He raised his hand and made a "please" gesture, and said in a calm and elegant voice: "Brother, please sit down and listen to this story."

In winter, there are dense clouds and heavy snow. The cold wind is rushing into Huajing, driving pedestrians and flapping windows.

Li Rong listened to the sound of the wind blowing on the window outside, and leaned side by side with Pei Wenxuan: "Then I will first listen to you talk about the wind and rain."

"What do you want to listen to?"

"Things in the past life, things I don't know."

"Where does your Highness want to hear?"

Li Rong fell silent, and she thought for a long time.

After a long time, she finally said, "Shangguanya and Su Ronghua, start with them."

When Pei Wenxuan heard this, he laughed. He took Li Rong's hand and said peacefully: "Okay, then let them go."

"In Dexu three years, Qin Zhenzhen was poisoned and killed. Your Majesty ordered me to investigate the matter. I found Su Ronghua all the way and spent five years tracking him until he died. In these five years, I don’t know if Shao. Su Ronghua is the eldest son of the Su clan. He is supposed to be the successor to the position of Patriarch, but he studied under Gu Zixiao when he was young.

"That's a madman."

Li Rong knew this person, a rare stranger in the family, but he was still quite regular when he was young, and quite talented, so it was normal for the Su clan to ask him to be Su Ronghua's master.

"It didn't take long for Gu Zixiao to teach Su Ronghua. He was expelled from the family tree by the Gu family because he eloped with a poor girl. Later, he disappeared, and I don't know if he really wandered around the world or was cleaned up by the Gu family. Su Ronghua may be influenced by the Gu family. He was rebellious since he was a child. At the age of eleven, he declared to everyone that he would not inherit the position of the head of the family. Since then, he has been wandering outside for most of a year, doing business everywhere, and is keen to make friends."

"In the fifteenth year of Yuan Hui, Su Ronghua returned to Beijing and was called Su Wang teacher. From then on, he bet on money and cock-fight every day and became a complete dude."

"In the eighteenth year of Yuan Hui, Shangguanya entered Beijing. The two met in the gathering house."

"In the eighteenth year of Yuan Hui, you and Shangguanya met by chance in the Jucai Pavilion. You came home that day and told me that you met a girl who pretended to be a man and gambled money in a casino. If you lose, I will ask you to gamble again tomorrow."

Su Rongqing opened the white porcelain pot, took out the tea leaves with a tea spoon, and put them in the teapot.

"You laughed very happily that day, saying that this girl was very interesting. Later, you often mentioned her to me. People didn't want to talk to you. You always go to cute house. This girl hides from you, changes to a casino, and you go to a casino. , One day you were beaten with pockets on your way home."

Su Ronghua laughed out loud when he heard this, "Pouch".

Su Rongqing also laughed. He raised his head and glanced at Su Ronghua: "You are unwilling in your heart, and you intend to seek revenge, so you secretly designed that on the way the other girl went to fight the cock, the fake trafficker abducted the person. As a result, he really ran into the mountain after turning out of the city. Bandit, you were kidnapped together, and you don’t know what you encountered when you were kidnapped. When you are rescued, you tell me that you have made up your mind and you want to marry her."

"You know that the Su family is very powerful. As you are, if you come to propose a marriage, the girl has to agree if she doesn't want to agree. So you plan to ask her wishes first. I picked clothes for you that day, and you grind a hosta by yourself. , Took it to find her. When you came back in the rain at night, I asked you what's wrong, and you told me nothing was wrong."

"From that day on, you didn't go out much, until a palace banquet, you, as teacher Su Wang, were forced to attend."

"At the banquet, he saw Shangguan Ya."

Pei Wenxuan's voice was very soft, and Li Rong put her chin on her knees: "Shangguanya should not pay attention to him."

"Yes," Pei Wenxuan replied, "but Su Ronghua knew her reason for rejecting him, so naturally he wouldn't let go so easily. He approached Shangguan Ya, and he asked Shangguan Yaxi whether he liked him, and if he liked him, he would give up. Sedan chair, come to propose to marry her."

"How is this possible?"

Li Rong was a little puzzled: "Shangguanya entered Beijing for Chuaner. This is something that Shangguan's family has already decided. Su is not so confused. How could he be involved in this kind of thing?"

"Why doesn't Su Ronghua know?"

Pei Wenxuan sighed: "Ke people always want to try it once, so they decided to try it once."

"When you came back from the palace banquet, you found your father. You said you want to go to Shangguan's family to propose marriage, but Shangguanya is the prince's internal choice. You are striving to be the future prince. How can your father tolerate you? If your father refuses, you will Tell my father that I am willing to expel the Su clan by self-petition, leave the family, and beg for the Shangguan clan. It is life or death that you will bear."

The water in the kettle boiled, and Su Rongqing poured the boiling water into the teapot with tea leaves.

"You have suffered three hundred battles according to the clan rules, and you went to Shangguan's house with injuries all over your body." Su Rongqing's voice choked a bit, but he still remained calm, "Shangguan's dare not let you stop at the door. Let you enter the inner courtyard. You kneel in front of Shangguan Xu and ask him to marry Shangguanya. You analyze the pros and cons for him and tell him that Shangguanya marrying into the East Palace is just pushing the Shangguan family to perish faster, Shangguan Xu Why do you hear such nonsense? He can't drive you away, and because you are the eldest son of the Su family, he can't kill you, so he lets you kneel at Shangguan's house."

"You knelt for three days, and for those three days, the palace has made a plan for the marriage."

"In the three days that Su Ronghua was kneeling in Shangguan's mansion, Shangguanya was locked up in the backyard. Now you know her temperament, she loves hate, and acted decisively. Su Ronghua has so far, how could she let him down? So she has been When I asked Shangguan Xu, she kept shouting, she said that there are so many daughters in Shangguan family, why should she choose her? She has someone she likes, and she doesn't want to be a princess, let her go."

“Shangguan’s family ignored her until the imperial decree of marriage was entered into Shangguan’s mansion. Shangguan Xu took the imperial decree and went to Shangguanya. He told Shangguanya that Shangguan’s family had given her more than ten years of wealth and glory. Is she going to be here? It was time to abandon the Shangguan clan. The imperial decree for marriage has arrived. If she and Su Ronghua leave, then the Shangguan clan will become the biggest joke in Daxia."

"Shangguan Ya can't tolerate it." Li Rong's voice felt a little sore in her throat. "It is impossible for her to shame her family for her love."

"You're right," Pei Wenxuan knew that Li Rong was uncomfortable. He raised his hand on Li Rong's shoulder and hugged her. "Shangguanya went to the inner courtyard in person, and then she saw Su Ronghua kneeling on the ground. It's blood, Shangguan Ya cried when she saw him."

How can you not cry.

This is the first time in this life that a person has given up life and death for her.

This was also the first time in her life that she lifted the layers of restraint given to her by the family and saw the most gentle and bright existence outside. Try to catch it.

Can't catch it.

It was raining heavily that day, and she looked down at the young man who was kneeling in front of her. She should have scolded him directly and humiliated him, but with a mouthful, her tears fell.

She couldn't say anything, she could only squat down and handed the hosta that he gave her on the day of his confession, shaking to his hand.

"Let me go," she said hoarsely, "Let go of yourself too."

"Love is nothing, and liking is nothing. When we live, we have our own responsibilities. I will enter the palace, I will become the princess, and the queen of the future. You will not like me in the future, just When you have never seen me, as you said, leave Huajing."

"Go a little farther and go to many places. The mountains and rivers you have seen are considered for me, and the things you do happy are considered to be done for me. If one day, you can meet someone you like and get married with her. Connect, that couldn't be better."

"Su Ronghua," she trembled, "Don't force me."

"Why are you willing to force her?"

Su Rongqing's tea was brewed the first time, and he raised his hand and poured water a second time.

"So when you come back home, my father still feels soft-hearted when he sees you. The matter between you and Shangguanya was covered up by the two families. Shangguanya entered the palace and became her princess, and you also left China. Beijing, I went to many places."

"and after?"

Su Ronghua lowered his eyes, Su Rongqing brewed the tea, poured it into a tea bowl, and pushed it to Su Ronghua: "Later, as you expected, the marriage between Shangguan and Li Chuan became the knot in your majesty’s heart. He supported King Su. Abolish the prince. After the prince was abolished, Pei Wenxuan lobbied the family, hoping that the family would send troops."

"Actually, the family is still hesitating whether to send troops or not. In the end, you stand up first, hoping that Su Clan will send troops. You have countless reasons, and it is indeed suitable, but I know in my heart, how many reasons can not hide the point in your heart. Unwanted thoughts," Su Rongqing raised his eyes as he said, "You are worried about Shangguan Ya."

"I won't take Su Shi as a bet on my feelings alone."

Su Ronghua spoke calmly, and Su Rongqing nodded: "You are not gambling, it just happens that this decision is more appropriate. You made the right choice, supporting Li Chuan, at the time, it seemed that it was indeed the choice for the Su clan. Li Chuan was wise. It is also orthodox. His ascension to the throne is the most justifiable, so as to prevent everyone from dissatisfaction and rebellion everywhere. If you want to end the chaos, Li Chuan ascends the throne."

"So hundreds of families gathered troops to attack the imperial city with Qin Lin and support Li Chuan ascended the throne. After Li Chuan ascended the throne, Shangguanya became the queen, and you stayed in Huajing. In the first year of Dexu, Li Chuan had just ascended the throne, and the north was convenient There was a war, and the Manchu dynasty mastered peace, but Li Chuan, Qin Lin, and Pei Wenxuan were the only ones who led the war. Later, Li Chuan and Pei Wenxuan helped Qin Lin go around, obtained money, and forcibly started the war."

"After the war, they found that the treasury was empty and was not enough to support the northern front. So they were forced to stop again. At this time, Li Chuan was moved."

"What is he going to do?"

"He wants to reorganize." Su Rongqing said this and couldn't help laughing. "The imperial examination requires taxation from aristocratic families, limits the number of aristocratic families' purchases of land and servants, and establishes a fixed-point system that requires officials to be promoted according to their scores. When you are promoted upwards, the family will deduct ten points, and those from poor families will get ten points."

Hearing this, Su Ronghua frowned: "It's too urgent."

"He has just taken the throne and made such a big move. Many local tycoons naturally disagree. He gave orders from above but did not execute them at all, or deliberately twisted his meaning and increased the burden on the people. He wanted to kill people and build power, but even two At the end of the winter of the Dexu year, he ignored Pei Wenxuan’s persuasion and asked Qin Lin to kill the patriarch of a local clan, which resulted in continuous uprisings in the place for three consecutive years. In the end, no one was inhabited."

"That year there was war in the north, floods in the south, empty treasury, and local corruption," Pei Wenxuan said of what happened in the past, with a bit of cold tone in his tone, "I followed your majesty to patrol the south, your majesty, did you not see That scene. On the battlefield, there are corpses everywhere, famines and famines, and Yizi eats each other. And Huajing sings and dances, heaven and hell, but this is the case. Your Majesty is benevolent in nature. After returning, he made a plan and tried to reform."

"But you are too anxious." Li Rong's voice was steady, "Chuan'er is too young, he doesn't understand that a country is like a big ship, you have to walk slowly, the emperor's hand can point to the direction, crushing underneath, It is thousands of people. I know Chuan'er's decree, and I understand what he means, but it is not that he can give a good decree that can be implemented well."

"But in His Majesty’s eyes, his heart is correct, and the decree is correct. What is wrong is only the officials of the family who do not implement it. Therefore, the conflict between the family and him has become more acute, and in the middle is Shangguan Ya. Shangguan Ya is your younger sister. Your Majesty still has some kind of friendship towards her in his heart, but he can't restrain his inner dislike of the family. His Majesty told me that every time he enters the Weiyang Palace and sees Shangguan Ya wearing gold and silver dress, he will think of those things. People who can’t eat enough."

"And Shangguanya only thought that she was inferior to Qin Zhenzhen. The more she dressed up, the more gentle and considerate, the more disgusted her Majesty. Later, His Majesty and Qin Zhenzhen became more and more emotional, and he could not even have **** with her, Your Majesty told me Every time he had **** with her, he felt sick. He was sick of himself. He didn't like Shangguanya and felt that he had betrayed his lover. So when he saw Shangguanya, he couldn't even have any impulse."

"Shangguanya is not favored. The Shangguan family is naturally anxious, and constantly pressures Shangguanya to work harder and strive to give birth to the eldest son. She is desperate, so she comes to you and asks you to help her."

"I remember," Li Rong lowered her eyes, "I heard that Chuan'er just slept in Zhonggong and left, so I scolded him. He pushed the decree too hastily, and Shangguan was his. Root, if he even kills the Shangguan family, I am afraid that something will happen to him."

"You speak to him, he is also guilty. He knows in his heart that Shangguanjia supported him in order to be a prince, and Shangguanya was innocent, so your Majesty took medicine later. Every time he went to see Shangguanya, he would take medicine in advance and come back. Then I started to vomit."

When Li Rong heard this, she looked back at Pei Wenxuan, "Does Shangguanya know?"

After Pei Wenxuan pondered for a moment, he nodded and said, "It should be known. In fact, Shangguanya herself is also taking medicine."

Li Rong could not speak, and at that moment, she suddenly felt a great sadness.

What a proud man Shangguanya was, but trapped in this deep palace, like an animal, she gave birth to a prince. Faced with the fact that her husband had to take medicine to touch her and vomited secretly after touching her, she remained silent.

Two people who don't love each other so much that they hate each other, they are going to be a child, doing things on the top of the quilt.

And such a secret, no one knows, only the two of them can swallow and hide it by themselves.

There was an unspeakable coldness in Li Rong's heart. Pei Wenxuan hugged her and kissed her: "Don't be sad, it's all about the previous life. Now Shangguanya hasn't entered the palace yet?"

"and after?"

"Later, His Majesty finally found out that Shangguan Ya was also taking medicine. He realized that this was the death of two people. His Majesty made up his mind, drank wine, went to the Central Palace, found Shangguan Ya, discussed with her, she should be her queen, she wants He can give her all the power, they two, stop pretending."

"But Shangguanya has no children. As far as Shangguanya is concerned, how can this be tolerated? She abandoned herself and the love she should have, and came to this deep palace not to listen to your majesty's innocence and tell her that they are well. . Not to enter the palace to perfect your majesty. Shangguan Ya cried so much that night, she asked her, why should she be buried in this palace, but her majesty can live willfully?"

"Your Majesty asked her what she wanted, and she said she wanted a child. Your Majesty promised her that they drank the medicine together, took off their clothes, and went to bed. But when His Majesty touched her, His Majesty could not help but ran out. ."

"I heard Shangguanya’s palace people say that that night Shangguanya was retching, retching and crying. On the second day, Shangguanya took the initiative to find your Majesty and beg him for peace. She was very empathetic. It is also very pitiful. His Majesty promised her that she will be a queen no matter what."

"Three days later, Qin Zhenzhen was found to be pregnant. That night, Shangguanya sent a letter from the palace to the Shangguan's family, saying that His Majesty had made up his mind not to touch anyone in the harem except Concubine Qin. She needed one. Man, anyone can, she wants a child."

When Su Rongqing said this, Su Ronghua's hand holding the tea bowl trembled slightly. He tried to calm himself down, but he still felt pain.

Even now, he couldn't imagine how painful he would be at that time if this matter was taken seriously.

"At that time, eldest brother, you planned to leave again, but the Shangguan clan found his father. The Shangguan clan did not dare to confuse the royal blood. But if you watched Qin Zhenzhen's child succeeding, it would mean, In the Qin family, a prince will appear among the cold clan that thoroughly supports your majesty's reform.

"The Shangguan family hopes to use this child to form an alliance with the Su family. The children born from the blood of the Shangguan family and the Su family will be assisted by the two clans in the future. At that time, the court was extremely dissatisfied with His Majesty, and his father disagrees with Li Chuan's actions. After discussing for a long time, it was finally settled and let you go. You were going to leave, and you told me that you would not come back this time. When Shangguanya put it in front of you, you thought about it all night, and finally Still stay."

Staying is equivalent to sinking into the deep palace with that person.

There will no longer be the distance she said, nor will there be the freedom and beauty she said.

But he was still willing to stay, so under the arrangement of the two families, in the palace, Shangguanya was waiting for the strange man to step into the palace and humiliate her like Li Chuan.

What she saw was her best dream when she was young, coming by the moon.

He knelt in front of her and looked up at her: "I have seen a mother."

Shangguanya looked at this distant and familiar person. After a long time, she said hoarsely, "What are you doing?"

"be with you."

To accompany her to hell, accompany her to Huangquan together.

Tears fell in Shangguanya's eyes. She could accept anyone, but she couldn't accept him. She trembled and said, "Go, I don't want you."

"But you have no choice," Su Ronghua held up the back of her hand and kissed the back of her hand, "I have nowhere to go."

From the moment he entered the palace, he was her funeral.

So they entangled in the dark night. That night, it was Shangguanya's best dream in her life. It was full of guilt and sin, but it was the only escape in her life.

"Two months later, Shangguanya was diagnosed as pregnant. Su Ronghua participated in the imperial examination and became the second best in the ranking. This child was too embarrassed in time. In fact, now, I don't know who this child belongs to."

"Does Chuan'er know?" Li Rong curled himself up, his voice was very soft, Pei Wenxuan shook his head, "His Majesty didn't even know the time when Shangguan Yasu Ronghua had an affair. It was three years for Dexu, and his Majesty had already cultivated a group of people. Own people. People in the poor family saw that His Majesty loved Qin Zhenzhen. When Qin Zhenzhen was still pregnant with a child, he spread rumors and forged miracles among the people. After the child was born, officials from poor families even wrote a letter saying that the child was the eldest son. Should be established as a prince."

"They are killing Qin Zhenzhen."

"Many officials in the poor family are impoverished. There are no elders in the family who have participated in government affairs. How can they know these twists and turns? Your Majesty actually knows that Qin Zhenzhen is dangerous, and Qin Zhenzhen shows that he and his children have no intention of being in the throne. I personally wrote a letter and asked to make Li Xin the prince. In fact, his Majesty was already preparing to make Li Xin the prince, but folk rumors had spread. That year, a strange bird fell at the gate of the Huguo Temple. Everyone said that this was a strange bird. The bird is the phoenix, a sign of the afterlife."

"The family can't help it."

"So Su Ronghua took the shot himself," Li Rong leaned against Pei Wenxuan, "poisoned Qin Zhenzhen."

"You wanted to poison Li Ping," Su Rongqing looked at Su Ronghua, who looked a little confused in front of him, "but Qin Zhenzhen protects Li Ping day and night, eating and living with Li Ping, every mouthful of water, every mouthful of medicine, every mouthful of food. She had tasted it first. So she was poisoned first and saved Li Ping."

"After Qin Zhenzhen's death, His Majesty's temperament changed drastically. He didn't care about wars, people, or justice. He just wanted to overthrow the family. In those years, the summer was turbulent, and there were beacon fires everywhere. He reused the poor, indiscriminately killed the family, and selected the poor. The people who came out were so cruel and corrupt officials. They went up and down, and the people didn’t make a living. The Su family tried their best to persuade the monarch, caress the people, scattered countless wealth to rescue the people, and spent money to suppress the rebellion. In fact, looking back, these are all he Deliberately, he used this rebellion to consume the strength of the family."

"In the eighth year of Dexu, in order to keep his troops in his hands, he framed the King Su for rebellion. As King Su's teacher, you stood up and spoke for King Su. He then sent Su to prison on the charge of colluding with the enemy. At that time, I was still I don’t know if you have an affair with Shangguan Ya, but I feel wronged. Princess Pingle knows that Su’s family has been wronged and tried to save us. In the end, he protects Su’s family, but Li Chuan gives me Su’s boy and is sentenced to court."

Su Ronghua's pupils shrank, and he squeezed his fists: "Son?"

"How can my Su Clan bear such humiliation? I all committed myself in prison. I have a hatred in my heart, and I am willing to be a ghost and stay in this world. So I survived and survived thanks to His Highness Pingle."

"After Qin Zhenzhen's death, the last bit of tolerance for the family in His Majesty's heart disappeared."

Pei Wenxuan talked about the past of his friends from the previous life, with a look of compassion in his expression: "When he was guarding Qin Zhenzhen's spirit, the courtiers of the family knelt outside and forced him to canonize Li Xin as the prince. Your Majesty told me that The ghost is entangled. Only when you turn into a ghost can you have a chance to win. Then he went out and canonized Li Xin as the prince."

"The aristocratic family thought that this was a compromise of your majesty, and then your majesty became a tyrannical monarch. He was moody, taxed heavily, re-used the poor family, and killed the family indiscriminately. He used tax money to raise Qin Lin’s soldiers, and used the poor family to intimidate him. The aristocratic family is also close to the Shangguan clan, it seems that they love Li Xin very much, and let the Shangguan clan become his amulet."

"So the local family rebelled and the Shangguan clan helped suppress them, while the big clan like the Su clan had always been benevolent and the world was in turmoil. They could only send troops and pay for it. One or the other, your majesty finally has his own power. After the investigation, the real culprit of Qin Zhenzhen's death was also found."

"In Dexu seven years, I handed over the causes and consequences of Qin Zhenzhen’s death to Your Majesty. Your Majesty imprisoned the Queen Mother, killed Shangguan Xu, and the official half of the family. He was going to kill Li Xin and abolish Shangguanya, but Shangguanya bite. The death of this child belonged to your majesty. He offered to confess her with blood. His majesty confessed with blood, and the blood really blended together. Shangguan Ya cried and begged his majesty, saying that his majesty said that he would not abolish her. Then the queen mother committed herself to the cold palace. I beg your Majesty to put Guanya and Li Xin on the same path. Being trapped by family love, your Majesty did not kill her after all."

"Mother..." Li Rong's lips trembled lightly, "She committed suicide."

Pei Wenxuan did not speak, and he remained silent for a long time: "In Dexu eight years, your majesty wanted the northern expedition, and Su insisted on obstructing it, saying that the treasury was empty, and he couldn't afford it. But they didn't understand that his majesty did not want the northern expedition. His Majesty wanted the military power in their hands. He wanted to consume the family. So he deliberately framed King Su, said King Su had rebelled, and asked Su Clan to send troops. Su Ronghua stood up and denied King Su’s rebellion. His Majesty accused Su Clan of collaborating with the enemy. Go to jail. His Majesty really wanted to kill them at the time, but His Majesty begged for her. In the end, His Majesty gave the Su clan a palace sentence for humiliation."

"Su Ronghua was unbearable and died in prison. When my Majesty and I went down, we found that he was holding a hosta in his hand. His Majesty took away the hosta in his hand and went to find Shangguan Ya that night. He was very detailed Ya described how Su Ronghua died. When he handed the hosta to Shangguan Ya, Shangguan Ya suddenly screamed sharply."

"Shangguanya cried and screamed. Your Majesty clapped her legs and laughed. I was standing outside. I found it absurd and pathetic. In fact, at that time, I especially missed His Royal Highness. His Majesty is like the only bright light in the entire palace. All lights will go out, and only your Highness will always carry the sword forward."

"At that time, Chuan'er wanted to abolish Shangguanya, right?"

Li Rong hugged herself: "It's just that Shangguanya has united the family. The Su family is the benevolent and righteous family in the world. Even if Chuan'er is so planted and framed, even if things happen for a reason, they will not accept it in the hearts of the world. The people have long been unable to stand the war for years. Patience has reached its limit. As far as I know, there were no less than 20 families in the rebels."

"Yes." Pei Wenxuan answered, "His Royal Highness and these aristocratic families also joined forces?"

"If I don't take the plate of the family, someone else will take it. When that happens, I'm afraid Chuan'er will have nowhere to survive."

"Your Majesty also understands," Pei Wenxuan leaned against the wall. "So your Majesty forced the Su Clan to death. After the Northern Expedition was completed, he asked for immortal cultivation. He didn't really want to get revenge, but he knew that Daxia would no longer It’s time for Da Xia Xiu to rejuvenate him if he is a tyrant."

"In the past eight years, the cold clan has risen, the clan has fallen, and the clan is now at the end of the battle. He can't kill people, otherwise he will burn the jade and the stone, and the fish will be broken. So he chose to cultivate immortality and ask, let His Royal Highness become the princess of the town, representing the prison of the holy spirit. Guo. And Shangguanya, he can't move, and he doesn't dare to move. He can only plan another time and make a decision."

"I am the head of the Han clan, and my Royal Highness is the representative of the family. You and I check and balance each other, and are the alliance. For the remaining 22 years of Daxia, I will cultivate health and rest, and finally welcome the flourishing age."

"But twenty-two years,"

Li Rong raised her eyes and looked at Pei Wenxuan.

"But twenty-two years,"

On the other side, Su Rongqing looked at Su Ronghua in front of her and smiled bitterly.

In different spaces, the two sighed together: "It's too long."

It is so long that it makes people forget the original appearance, people can not see the way forward, and forget the way back.

So the sword bearer looked around blankly, slashing indiscriminately, hurting others and himself.

The ghosts sink into hell, do whatever they can to kill their loved ones by mistake.

Who remembers the original intention of the Northern Expedition reform, who remembers the purpose of obstructing the tyrant.

Who remembers, in the palace, for whom the Northern Expedition was promised.

I don't even remember, under the promenade, the promise to Jun was **** with a ring of grass, and he would live forever.

Only two figures were left in this mud pool, separated by the veil of time, each holding a long sword, and each other being a beacon, passing by.

Now the wheel of fortune is turning again, and it's time to make a decision.

Pei Wenxuan looked at Li Rong quietly: "His Royal Highness, the past is known, Qingzhou, do you want to go back?"

Su Rongqing poured the last cup of tea into the tea bowl and looked up at Su Ronghua: "Brother, the story is over, Huajing, are you still staying?"

Li Chuan watched the palace doors open one by one. Above the main hall, two rows of vertical bronze lanterns with vermilion bird and beads headed towards the height of the main hall. On the golden seat at the end of the main hall, Li Ming wore a black imperial costume with twelve heads. Mianguan, with a similar but older face, looked at the bright and indifferent young man in front of the palace gate, watching him quietly, and the old voice came from a height: "Prince."

Li Ming had compassion in his eyes: "You finally came."
