Li Rui came in with tears on his face. The king of Luling is from a product, which is lower than the king he once sealed and the king of Ji, so he had to find the old clothes that are not very gorgeous to wear, and the clothes have years, and he is the age of youthful growth, and the length is extremely inappropriate. Wei Huan simply wore the old clothes when he was not married, wrapped Li Rui's old clothes in the ceremony, and followed Li Rui in.

Mother Fu sat on the throne with Li Dan in her arms, and ordered me to stand by her side, Li Rui had no choice but to salute Li Dan, the more depressed the look, slowly climbed to the throne, whispered a "Aunt", hugged his mother's knee and cried, his mother stroked his head, looked at Wei Huan who met him and said: "Erlang has been in Beijing for a long time, never went out, if there is something unaccustomed along the way, you should serve carefully, do not slack off." ”

Wei Huan bowed his head, and his mother said again: "You have always known the number of etiquette, and there is no need to say much about the details." I have ordered people to build a palace in Luling, when you arrive, you can live in the palace, supply and other things, all from the Tibetan Province of another way, if there is anything else, you can go through the assassination of the history of the book, to reach me to listen. ”

Wei Huan just promised to salute his mother, and his mother asked someone to hold Shouli in front of him, and looked at it with his hand on the side of the swaddling placket, and said, "Very good." He waved his hand and ordered someone to help Li Rui away, and his face was very hesitant, as if he didn't want to say much.

I knew that Wei Huan tried to ask to see, there must be some plans, since she came in, she stared intently, waiting to see what hints she had, but she kept her eyes open, until this moment Fang said: "There are some small things, all of which were given by the first emperor and the queen mother in the past, but now that the situation has changed, the concubine is not needed, Erlang's intentions, it is better to leave it to Erniang, please show the queen mother." ”

While speaking, the palace man who was standing had already held a small box, opened the box, and presented it to my mother, who glanced at it and bowed her head slightly, and the palace person presented the box to me.

There are five pieces of jewelry in this box, although it is precious, but it is not unusual, only a flying fish silver box on the side, I saw my heart and pounded, I don't know what is inside, I didn't dare to open it on the spot, so I singled out this box, and said to Wei Huan: "This silver box is very exquisite, and it is so small, it doesn't take up space with it, sister-in-law really doesn't have to keep it for herself?"

Wei Huan said: "When you leave the country and go to the capital, you can have less luggage, and you can leave it as a small thing, and you should stay it." After a pause, he said: "I can entrust it to Erniang, and I didn't bury it." ”

I vaguely heard Wei Huan's meaning, my heart beat more and more, but I was even more hesitant, holding the box in my hand, pinching and playing with it repeatedly, afraid that my mother would see it, and I picked out a few pieces of jewelry to see - when I looked carefully, I found that the style and materials of each piece were extremely plain, without a trace of the luxury that is popular nowadays, which is exactly the style I like every day.

When my mother saw that I liked it, she asked someone to take the box over, looked at it selectively, and said casually: "It's not a valuable thing, you are the princess of Luling, and there is no place to go beyond it, and it doesn't hurt to carry it yourself." ”

I hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law has a heart, and I can't push it back, so it's okay to keep it as a thought." ”

Wei Huan also said: "Those who have been convicted can only be cautious and thrifty, retreat to their own bodies, and dare not be so flashy. ”

Mother didn't say much, Wei Huan said to me again: "I don't know when we will see each other again, Erlang and I can't be filial to the Queen Mother's knees, and many details are entrusted to Erniang." The second mother is not in good health, she should be kind and kind when she encounters things, and she should cherish herself, and she should not be as willful as her little daughter as before. He shook my hand and looked at me deeply, with a resolute look in his eyes.

My heart moved, both extremely happy and worried, hesitated for a long time, then made up my mind, and after Li Rui and Wei Huan retreated, and Li Dan was also hugged down, I stepped forward and took the corner of my mother's clothes, and said softly: "Auntie, son... There is something to report. ”

My mother, who was already a little tired and leaned on the throne, raised her eyes slightly after hearing my words, put her hand on the armrest and said, "Your brother's departure from Beijing has been decided, if you ask for mercy, you don't need to." ”

I knelt down in front of the throne and looked up at her: "It's not for Erlang's business, it's for A-Niang." ”

My mother tilted her head and looked at me with interest: "You say." ”

I pinched the sweat in my palms and said slowly: "Ah Niang changed to establish San Lang, although it is for the sake of the country's social affairs and abolition and orthodoxy, but after all, San Lang is a little younger, and Ah Niang's general affairs are tens of thousands, and he may not be able to take care of everything, if there is any case, I am afraid that the DPRK will be unstable." ”

At the beginning of the new emperor's establishment, I really shouldn't have said this unlucky thing, but Ah Huan refused to borrow my strength even for some trivial things in the past, but now she begs me to keep her, and I can't help but do my best for her—not to mention that keeping her is in line with the obscene wish in my heart?

My mother stared at me, I knew she was looking at me with the eyes of her subordinates, and put her head on her lap with the supple posture of a little daughter, and said softly: "Erlang is A-Niang's only son after all, and it is impossible for the court to have no objections, not to mention that there are also subordinates of the old Ji Wangfu and the East Palace, this is one; Pei Yan and others were born in a family, ranked as Zaifu, and now they are pre-abolishing the matter of the establishment and the plan of the society, and the prestige is both great, and the power is Yao at that time, this is the second; Gaozu feudal, all over the clan in the four seas, the senior ones have the King of Huo, the King of Lu, and the high-ranking ones have the heir of the King of Qi, King Xuancheng, the relatives have King Xu and King Ying, and those who have good names have King Ze and King Shu, these are three - these three are threats to the court, not that they must have misdeeds, but the new emperor was established, and the queen mother was in the dynasty, which was the critical time for the rise and fall of the court, and it was necessary to guard against it. And although Saburo was canonized by his mother, after all, he was not born to the first emperor, and his biological father was the prince who was deposed when the first emperor was the first emperor. ”

Normally, my mother would stroke my head or pat me on the shoulder if I did such an intimate gesture, but today she looked at me motionlessly, and after a moment she said, "Go on." ”

I said: "The first emperor has left two sons, and the king of Puyang has been belittled since the time of the first emperor, and he is a concubine, and his son is not enough to rely on." Erlang was established by the first emperor and has the most correct reputation. Among the grandchildren, only Shouli is the son of Erlang, Fengjie is the son of Dalang, and the second son is the most important. After the festival has passed, only the honor of the honor is the best. Erlang is already old and deposed, so he can't stay in the capital, and he is young, but he can raise the palace with Dalang and the sons of the king of Puyang, just in case - everything that the son said is the situation when the sister-in-law has no children, if the sister-in-law has a son, she will naturally respect her son. After staying for a while, he said the last words: "My son thinks that for the sake of his mother and Erlang, Erlang should be the country, but my sister-in-law and Shouli should stay in Beijing." After saying everything, his heart calmed down, and he took a step back and fell to the ground, waiting for his mother's ruling.

It took a long time for the mother to speak slowly, but she said something else: "Do you think A-Niang can't take good care of San Lang?"

I was stunned, and unconsciously looked up at her, only to see that she had risen from her throne, her long skirt dragging to the ground, covering most of the ground from the throne to me. I thought of Ah Huan, and actually made the matter of cursing the current saint very calm: "I know that Ah Niang loves San Lang and will take care of it with all her heart, but no one can predict the blessings and misfortunes in this world, San Lang is so young, if there is an emergency, Ah Niang must always be prepared." After a pause on the ground, he said in a very soft voice: "Brother Sheng has gone, Brother Rui has also left Beijing, A-Niang keeps Dan'er and Shouli, only when they... I'm still around. ”

Mother didn't speak again. I seemed to see a tear falling from above, falling on the hem of my mother's skirt, when I peeked, I saw that she was only slightly red at the corners of her eyes, her face was still as usual, she stood for a while, and finally bent over, stretched out her hand and patted me on the shoulder: "Most of them have left the city at this time, you and Dugu Shao rode on horseback, and chased Shouli and your sister-in-law back." ”

This is leaving the favor to me. I said yes, and as soon as I got up, I heard my mother say again: "Let the twenty people in the palace who are good at choosing the palace, and the spring peach in the palace, Chu'er in the princess's mansion, and the third daughter of Wei Xuanzhen be sent to Luling to serve Erlang." ”

I didn't say this to me, but I also bowed down to listen, and saw Wan'er come out of the shadows, and go out the door, and turn to see her mother, who had gone back to her throne, and sat down with her eyes closed.

I slowly retreated, and went to a secluded place outside the door to open the silver box of flying fish in my hand, and saw ten fingernails neatly stacked there, bright red color, shining like jewels. (. Just Love)
