Chapter 799: Fate

The corners of Xiao Shaotang's lips curved slightly, and he quickly resumed condensation:

"Well, since that's the case, then together with the ladies of the Zhenguo Mansion, let's not be an official slave. ”

As Xiao Shaotang expected, Bai Chenghuan quickly looked at him in surprise:

"She is not an official slave? she, she is also the daughter of the first emperor......

"Huanhuan's heart has softened?"

Xiao Shaotang's long eyebrows raised:

"It is not an exaggeration to frame the father and the king of the Zhenguo Mansion, deceive the king, and destroy the family, isn't it also appropriate for the female dependents to be not included in the official slaves?"

Bai Chenghuan was silent.

The men of the Zhenguo Mansion were beheaded and exiled, and each had its own rules, needless to say. The female dependents used to enjoy the glory and wealth of the Zhenguo Mansion, and now they are convicted together, and there is nothing to say.

But Hsiao Hui Ya ......

In the past, she couldn't understand it, but later she knew about the things in her previous life, and she could estimate that Xiao Huiya was afraid that she had done something that angered Xiao Shaoyun in her previous life, so Xiao Shaoyun had to treat his two sisters coldly in this life.

Xiao Huiya, as an eldest princess, can be described as a disaster in this life.

"That's it, Xiao Huiya is the daughter of the first emperor in the end, and there are few children left of the first emperor, if she does it too much, it will cause people to discuss, it is better to follow the old example of Princess Wenhui in the past, let her return home and become a layman." ”

Bai Chenghuan didn't want to admit that he was soft-hearted, so he found a very appropriate reason to persuade Xiao Shaotang.

Princess Wenhui is the daughter of Gaozu, her husband's family rebelled, Gaozu took pity on her, did not condemn her, only let her reconcile with her husband's family, and became a layman with hair cultivation.

Xiao Shaotang agreed with a smile:

"Okay, this is a good idea, I'm careless, I can't think of many things, fortunately, there is Huanhuan to mention it!"

Bai Chenghuan glanced at him with disgust:

"Your Xiao family's affairs, let me use my brain, are you ashamed?"

Xiao Shaotang smiled:

"Of course you're not ashamed, you are also the wife of the Xiao family now, and the affairs of the Xiao family are not your business?"

He actually didn't care about Xiao Huiya's handling at all, but he was very willing to use these things to take Bai Chenghuan's mind away from Ah Yong.

Even if she said that she would let Xiao Huiya come back to be the eldest princess, he would agree, not to mention that she was very reasonable.

Among the children of the first emperor, except for King Jin, who is still king in Hedong, and Xiao Huixin, who is married far away, are in a good situation, the rest have no good end.

Now Xiao Huiya is just an insignificant eldest princess, let her go, at least she can win a good reputation.

Regarding the case of the Zhenguo Mansion, the Criminal Department and the Dali Temple quickly concluded the case, and the charges of the Zhenguo Mansion were all over the place, and the Zhenguo Mansion's male was sentenced, except for the beheading of the Zhenguo Prince, the remaining male and female relatives were exiled and were not allowed to return to the capital forever.

Some people think that the emperor is soft-hearted and does not eradicate the roots, and there will be troubles, and some people praise the emperor for being kind-hearted and not careless about people's lives.

However, the emperor's decree to make the eldest princess Huiya and the second prince of the Zhenguo Mansion and the return to the royal family were all praised in unison, believing that although the emperor did not grow up in the royal family, he valued blood and family affection.

Originally, some people in the clan were afraid of the clan, but also quickly settled down, wholeheartedly supporting the emperor, and there was no dissent.

King Qin has been living in the palace of King Qin since he returned to Beijing, but because he misses Ah Yong, his grandson, he has entered the palace many more times than before.

On the day that Zhenguo Gong was beheaded, he had a deep hatred with Zhenguo Gong, and it is said that King Qin, who should be in a happy mood, did not go to watch the execution, but went into the palace to hug his grandson as usual.

Bai Chenghuan heard that King Qin had entered the palace, and then thought about what day it was, and estimated that King Qin was not happy in his heart, so he hurriedly took Ah Yong to welcome King Qin to Yanbo Pavilion, thinking that when he saw Ah Yong, King Qin's mood would be better.

In the end, it is connected by blood, but in a short period of time, Ah Yong has already recognized his grandfather, and Ah Yong, who was babbling and shouting in the arms of his own mother, saw King Qin and reached out to hug him.

Seeing that his grandson liked him so much, King Qin was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, lifted Ah Yong high, and threw it up and down in the air to play.

Ah Yong also played with Bai Chenghuan like this in the past, but in the end, his grandfather and mother were different, and he still giggled happily.

Bai Chenghuan is now in addition to Xiao Shaotang, but also only reassured King Qin and Lord Rongyang, seeing that Ah Yong and King Qin were having fun, she also left Ah Yong to accompany King Qin, and got up to find Xiao Shaotang by herself.

Xiao Shaotang heard that his father didn't come to see him when he entered the palace, but went to see Ah Yong first, and his heart was slightly pantothenic:

"Father is the same as you now, there is only Ayong in his heart, where can he see me!"

Bai Chenghuan couldn't help but laugh:

"How old are you, and you are still fighting with Ah Yong for this? Today, my father did not go to the execution ground of Zhen Guogong, but my father must not be happy in his heart, and you should go over to comfort and comfort him. ”

Xiao Shaotang hugged Bai Chenghuan, reluctant to give up:

"Finally, Ayong is not by your side, but I can't accompany you, so I'll go and see my father. ”

"Go, go!"

Bai Chenghuan sent him away, just the two masters in this palace, they were together every morning and evening, she really couldn't stand Xiao Shaotang's greasyness.

It's winter, and the cool and pleasant Yanbo Pavilion in summer burns the earth dragon at this time, and it is also warm.

As soon as Xiao Shaotang walked in, he could feel the warmth on his face.

In the inner room, King Qin had already taken off his outer cloak and was holding Ah Yong on his lap. Ah Yong has just been more than four months old, but he has already begun to grow his first small teeth, and he is prone to drooling, and at this time he is drooling to grab the embroidery on the placket of King Qin's clothes, and the saliva has fallen on King Qin's body.

The attendants who followed King Qin into the palace hurriedly stepped forward to wipe it for King Qin - even if it was the eldest son of the emperor, it was very inappropriate for this saliva to drip on King Qin.

Who knew that King Qin didn't care at all, waved his hand to make him stand back, and smiled and took off a purse embroidered with bluegrass from his waist for Ah Yong to play:

"Ah Yong, this is hand-embroidered by your grandmother, for you to play!"

Although the purse was a little old, the color was still bright, and it instantly attracted Ayong's attention, and he grabbed the purse with his two little fat hands and was about to send it to his mouth.

King Qin hurriedly stopped it, but Ah Yong refused to let go, and the two ancestors and grandchildren made a mess.

Xiao Shaotang stood by the door and quietly watched his father and his son enjoying themselves, and his heart couldn't say whether he was envious or sour.

He had never had such a family happiness for as long as he could remember.

Ayong is really better than him.

King Qin and Ah Yong played attentively, but they didn't find Xiao Shaotang standing at the door, or Ah Yong turned his head and saw his father, and immediately rushed to Xiao Shaotang's side excitedly, and King Qin saw his son standing at the door with a lonely expression.

He took Ayong in his arms, stood up, and smiled at his son:

"Why don't you come in?"

Xiao Shaotang silently hid the loss in his heart and walked in.

The father and son sat opposite each other, and for a moment they didn't know what to say, so they could only look down at Ayon who was crawling on the cushion between the two.

After a long silence, King Qin slowly opened his mouth:

"You have handled these two things well, Ah Yong Niang and Zhenguo Mansion, so I can rest assured. ”

Rest assured? Are you going to leave again?

Xiao Shaotang's heart was slightly cold, and he didn't speak.

King Qin hesitated again before he said:

"After going to Jiangnan in the spring, I took your mother to Wu's house. ”

Xiao Shaotang raised his head and looked at King Qin:

"Wu family, how is it? Uncle, are they all okay?"

Although he had never met his two uncles, the Wu family was defeated because the uncles wanted to seek justice for his mother, and he was always guilty in his heart.

After ascending the throne, he also wanted to knight the Wu family, but the news from Huzhou was that the Wu family refused to accept the title.

The Wu family's resistance made him feel very powerless.

King Qin recalled everything that happened in the Wu family, and couldn't help but show a wry smile, but mixed with relief.

As soon as he stepped into the gate of Wu's house, he was beaten by two Huafa uncles who were born early, and then they hugged Lan Jun's ashes and cried bitterly before letting him in.

"Your two uncles are in good health, now that you are the emperor, although the Wu family does not accept the knighthood, but no one dares to suppress the Wu family anymore, this year, the Wu family has built three more sea boats, and the children are gradually growing up, I heard that this winter, I will arrange for the children of the family to go to sea. ”

King Qin briefly explained the situation of the Wu family, and finally showed a comfortable smile:

"Your mother's ashes have been buried in the ancestral grave of the Wu family, and she is considered to have returned home, so you don't have to worry about it in the future...... When Ah Yong is older in the future, if you can, you can take Cheng Huan and Ah Yong to Wu's house to see your mother and uncles, which is also your filial piety. ”

Xiao Shaotang nodded, and had no objection to King Qin's advice.

He once felt that his father's refusal to bury his mother's ashes was due to the paranoia and madness in his heart, but now he knew that he wanted to take his mother back to his mother's hometown for burial.

When you are alive, you are not happy or unhappy, and you don't have to be buried in the royal mausoleum after you die, and accept the royal title-

Xiao Shaotang thinks that his father is really the person who knows his mother best in the world.

In the evening, when King Qin left the palace, the sky was already sprinkled with snowflakes and began to fall.

King Qin looked up at the cloudy sky, turned back to Xiao Shaotang and said:

"This winter, I will accompany Ayong in the capital. ”

Xiao Shaotang stood on his feet in shock, and there was gradually a hint of childlike excitement in his eyes.

Whether it is for him or for Ayong, his father is not a distant silhouette for him.

Looking at the back of King Qin gradually walking away, Xiao Shaotang chased after him:

"Father, are you relieved of the affairs of the Zhenguo ......Mansion?

In fact, many people know that the fate of the Zhenguo Mansion is not commensurate with the crimes they committed.

But what Song Changqing said makes sense, this is the first year of Taifeng, and it is not suitable for a killing spree.

King Qin stood still, looked back at his son's face that was very similar to his own, and the fine lines in the corners of his eyes had Xiao Shaotang's familiar tolerance:

"It's been so many years, the mastermind of the year is almost dead, and now I can be given justice, I'm already very satisfied, what's the point of letting you add lives in your hands?"

"Father......" Xiao Shaotang felt that his father's mind might not be able to learn in his life.

King Qin raised his hand and patted his son's shoulder:

"That's it, be an emperor who cherishes human life and forgives and merciful to the world, and my father will be proud of you!"

With such a result, his father would be proud of him?

Even though in the eyes of the courtiers, he was a strong-minded emperor, but when he heard such a sentence at this time, Xiao Shaotang couldn't help but burst into tears.

But King Qin had already turned around and walked away, and the dark cloak flew with his footsteps, leaving the palace that had ruined his life step by step, turning the corner of the palace road, and disappearing from Xiao Shaotang's sight.

Scattered snowflakes fell until dusk, and it didn't make it to the ground.

But the rain and snow will not fall in this way, and it will make people feel even colder.

Xiao Huiya was wearing a thick cloak and walking on the palace road, the cold wind was blowing, and she was still habitually shrinking.

The palace maid who was leading the way glanced at the once noble eldest princess and frowned quietly.

When the eldest princess lived in the palace, she hadn't entered the palace yet, and she hadn't seen what the eldest princess was like at that time, but what kind of system did she become when she was so shrunk in front of the queen's mother?

The palace maid stopped, and there was a bit of instruction in the exhortation:

"I'm about to go to Huaqing Palace, since I'm here to thank the queen mother, the eldest princess had better not be hunched over like this, shrinking up, otherwise she will be disrespectful to the queen mother, and the eldest princess will do it herself!"

After speaking, he turned his head and continued to walk forward, leaving Xiao Huiya standing in place, stunned for a moment, holding back the tears that almost rushed out of her eyes.

She will actually have this day to be reprimanded for her indecent posture!

But who made her like this?!

It's just that she didn't even dare to shed tears at this time, and it became disrespectful to walk in the wrong way, so wouldn't she be dissatisfied with crying at this time?

The cold air that filled her body rushed into her nasal cavity, Xiao Huiya held back, and then gradually stretched out her body in the cold wind, straightened her back, and followed.

Xiao Huiya is not familiar with Bai Chenghuan, and Bai Chenghuan is also not familiar with Xiao Huiya.

Even in Xu Chenghuan's memory, Xiao Huiya is just a faint shadow.

No matter how hard Xiao Huiya tried, she couldn't regain her momentum as the eldest princess before, and she could politely thank her, and then retire according to the rules.

Bai Chenghuan allowed her to go back, and there was a trace of emotion in his tone:

"You go back with peace of mind, the emperor will build a princess's mansion for you, and you will not be wronged again. ”

Xiao Huiya lowered her eyes, covering the desolation under her eyes.

What is the difference between being a lonely layman all your life and becoming a monk?

However, compared to Hua Bingqing, who was going to be exiled with the princess of Zhenguo, such a result was already an unexpected joy.

Thinking of Hua Bingqing, Xiao Huiya's thank you was a little more sincere, and she retreated respectfully.

It wasn't until Xiao Huiya completely disappeared outside the hall that Bai Chenghuan got up and walked out.

In fact, Xiao Huiya is easy to dismiss, but Hua Bingqing has been clamoring to see her several times.

It's just that she really doesn't want to see that kind of person again.

Hua Bingqing, why is it called Hua Bingqing?

Because the people of the Hua family in the Zhenguo Mansion have the greatest wish that there can be a queen in the family.

And the queen of the Great Qi Dynasty, the most common palace is Huaqing Palace.

Since Xu Chenghuan became the exception by Xiao Shaoyun's side when he was young, Hua Bingqing's relationship with her has always been on the same footing.

For the sake of the supremacy of women.

Listening to An Zhulin, Hua Bingqing never married in his previous life.

Probably because the Zhenguo Mansion always thought that Xiao Shaoyun would dislike Xu Chenghuan and re-elect the queen, but there has never been, and the arrogant Zhenguo Mansion has become an old girl.

And in this life, if Hua Bingqing is married at this time, then there will be no her in the exile team of the Zhenguo Mansion.

It's all fate.

Bai Chenghuan stretched out his hand to catch a snowflake and sighed slightly.
