Chapter 206: No need to suffer yourself

Zhen Yunze returned to the imperial study with the king, and after the palace people withdrew, he still stood in front of the imperial case, silent.

Zhen Tengfeng slowly sat down with the imperial case, his eyes fell on him, and he sighed: "Aze, raise your head." ”

"Brother Wang, why are you delaying the southern expedition! Although the Zhongling County Guards have been sent to reinforce them, the water battle is not as good as the land battle, and they can't resist it for long. ”

Zhen Tengfeng said lightly: "Aoshan's Kui Xiaotai is between Zhongling County and Changping County, are you really sick and confused?"

Zhen Yunze's brows were furrowed, but he still knelt down and pleaded guilty: "Please forgive the king! The courtier's brother has made up his mind to go to the South China Sea with the king of the South China Sea to retreat from the enemy, and I ask the king for permission!"

He got up and walked to the bookshelf, took off a quaint wooden box carved with a seven-star pattern, walked up to him, and helped him up, "Your intentions, few people know, you don't need to hide it." He handed the wooden box to Zhen Yunze, his eyes deep.

"Brother Wang, what is this?" Yun Ze had already smelled an old and rotten aura, and an unbelievable thought crossed his mind, causing a storm in his heart, "Could it be?"

He didn't expect his brother to dare to open the royal tomb privately and take out the burial objects in the tomb of the queen mother's clothes, and he only felt that the wooden box in his hand was heavy.

Seeing his shock, Zhen Tengfeng nodded slightly: "This is the Soul Rejuvenation Jasper Grass, and this is the only thing that a widow can do for her." ”

When You Xue walked out of the Xia Kite Hall separated from the wall of Mingyue Palace, the sun had set, she stood on the high steps, looking at the palace below bathed in the sunset and the eaves were scattered and continuous, a little dizzy, she closed her eyes and walked along the stone steps towards the Zichen Palace.

The children rescued from the stone room of Mingyue Palace, the two girls almost became rotting corpses, only this one boy, should be about ten years old, with excellent self-healing ability, or the blood in the heart of the foot is not deep, although a lot of blood was shed, fortunately there was a trace of breath remaining, Aunt Qiong hung his breath with a golden needle, and temporarily survived.

It's just that his feet should be useless, and he may be able to stand up in the future, but whether he can walk normally depends on his own creation.

Thinking of this, she clenched her teeth, her heart ached faintly, she didn't know if it was for this child or for something else, it was a kind of anger that could not be vented.

When she opened her eyelids, she clearly saw that these were a pair of pure but out-of-focus red pupils, she didn't understand, they were just children!

The black-armored army standing outside the hall saw her approaching, bowed slightly, and knew that she didn't need to be told to enter and leave the Zichen Palace, so he opened the door of the hall for her.

Since the last time she left after venting her temper in this Zichen Palace, she has not been there, and the follow-up pills are all Qiong Qi went in person.

Today, Li Yan said that she saw a peculiar medicine field by a river in the suburbs, and she took Qiong Qi away, so she finished medicine for the child's wound, re-prescribed the prescription, and came directly to Zichen Palace.

Zhen Tengfeng was sitting on the soft couch in the outer hall and watching the stacks of high folds, and the blue color of the current meeting was not decreasing but increasing compared to the last meeting.

The expression is a little depressed, and the cheeks are almost sunken, as if they are almost the same as when they first met.

Hearing the footsteps, he stared at it, and was stunned for a moment, he thought it was Qiong Qi, and his heart said that he came too early today.

I didn't expect it to be her.

You Xue stood a foot away, bowing, but her tone was very polite, "The king looks very uneasy. ”

At the end of the wolf pen, the bright red ink dripped on the paper, blurring the red ball, he lowered his eyes and frowned, put the pen aside, got up and said, "Can you have dinner?"

The two looked as usual, as if the hysteria and insanity of that day had never happened.

"Not yet. You Xuewan smiled, but her appearance was no longer vivid, and her smile was not very good-looking.

So you Xue habitually took out the silver needle and tried the poison in the emperor's weak medicinal porridge, and scooped out a spoonful with a male spoon and put it in the empty dish, tasted it in his mouth and tried it, twisted his eyebrows and said: "Oh my God, it's so bitter." ”

At the smiling eyes of the God King, she still frowned and swallowed bitterly, resisting the urge to spit it out: "There are too many lotus hearts," she thought for a while and said, "I will make a new one tomorrow." ”

She felt that although Qiong Qi's anger towards the royal family had been resolved, her bad taste had not changed, and she had done it for her, and it was simply a sin to suffer such a bitter thing every day.

"Nothing, hardship can sharpen the mind, but also nourish the heart. ”

You Xue had already lost her appetite, and she lost interest when she looked at the few exquisite dishes on her table, so she just casually took a little bit of meaning before saying: "The king's hard work makes me admire, and it also reminds me of an ancient story about princely hegemony. ”

"Oh, very ancient?" said Zhu Tengfeng smiled faintly, scooped up a spoonful and put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly, before he said, "Why don't you talk about it?"

"It was also a period of war when the princes fought for hegemony, like the chaotic dark ages when the Li Kingdom was destroyed, when there were Wu and Yue at war, the lord of the Yue State was defeated and sued for peace, and entered the Wu State as a minister, and the King of Wu arranged him to feed the horses in the stable in order to humiliate him, during which he suffered all the humiliation and suffering, he endured the humiliation and burden, and drank it with hatred, until three years later he won the trust of the King of Wu and put it back in the Yue Kingdom, after this difficulty, he hung bitter gall in the house, and tasted the bitterness before every meal,"

She smiled meaningfully when she said this, "Not only that, but he also wore coarse cloth, ate at meals, and worked with the people to plow the fields and sow seeds, inspiring the whole country to work together." Finally, with the assistance of a group of virtuous ministers and good generals, he made great efforts to destroy the state of Wu, and he was ashamed of the snow, and there was a sentence that has been praised through the ages: 'Hard-working people, the sky does not bear, lying on the salary and tasting the gall, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu.' ’”

Zhan Tengfeng silently put down the bowl, looked at the dark night outside the hollow carved window with a solemn and contemplative expression, and his eyes seemed to appear in the field of fighting, conspiring to kill step by step, and only after a while did he say: "The widow is not as good as the ......."

"The king has always been bitter, so why should he be vain. The folk girl just wants to use this to persuade the king to cherish his body, and only when his body is healthy can he achieve what he wants, right?"

You Xue doesn't agree, she doesn't want to criticize the merits and demerits of historical figures, but it is never uncommon for a cunning rabbit to die as a lackey.

But in this emperor, she can't see those dark suspicions and the persecution of imperial power, he is good and evil, benevolent but not cowardly, broad-minded and deep like the sea, with a sick and weak body to support this dynasty for seven years without being overtaken by relatives, secretly protecting countless humerus in the court, otherwise, how can Li Xiang's Geng Zhi stand firmly in the court so far, General Geng was persecuted to exterminate the clan, and he also protected it, if it weren't for Geng Guangling's involvement in the affairs of Bian Qian's descendants and was assassinated, he can now return to the court.

If she hadn't come to Wang Du to see all this and gain insight into the government, she might really be judged by the folk gossip.

If it is said that love and righteousness are emphasized, King Yu Nanhai, King Yu Xuanxiang, and even the Marquis of Zhenxi, he treats them equally, even if he knows their small actions in secret, they are directly strangled in the bud, balancing the balance of interests between clans and the peace of the country.

If the emperor is affectionate, the harem is loved by thousands of people, but it is a pity that Lan Ying does not know how to cherish it.

For Zhen Yunze, he relied on this younger brother as the next monarch, and he never had jealousy and suspicion.

Such an emperor, how can people hate it?

"Even if the emperor is supreme, he has the power to control life and death in the world, and he is involuntary to outsiders. ”

She remembered that whenever she faced Yuan Ziyue, that deep sense of guilt and guilt was a pain that was difficult to wield, that was owed by the You family to the Geng family, life was like this, and the grievances and grievances were inextricably entangled, and they could not be cut off.

Zhen Tengfeng was slightly stunned, retracted his gaze, and landed on You Xue's face, both inquiring and confused.

You Xue smiled faintly, lifted the teapot and poured a cup of tea, "The folk girl apologized for the gaffe that day and replaced the wine with tea." ”

She drank all of it, "My lord, although it is difficult to smile at the enmity, but I admit that you are a good emperor, the You family is full of blood, and General You is generous to death, he must also want to bury this secret, change the stability of the royal family, and seek peace in the world! My princess is also my mother, otherwise she will not guard the key of the emperor's cave and burn the princess's mansion to the ground." ”

These words pierced into his heart like soft but tough thorns, and after feeling his heart beating wildly, he felt a faint twitching pain, which made him a little suffocated, he embarrassed to hide his gaffe, and wanted to stand up, but found that his feet were trembling, and he could only hold the edge of the table tightly and frown at her.

The eyes of the woman in front of him were too bright, and in such a scorching and reverent eye, he felt ashamed of himself, and only heard her say softly: "King, there is no need to suffer yourself, the bitterness will come willingly, so that the world will be peaceful and the Haiyan River will be clear." ”
