When Xiao Diyuan helped Xiao Hong fold the quilt, Xiao Hong looked at Xiao Diyuan quietly, his brows were tightly locked, and there was indescribable sadness and helplessness in his eyes. When Xiao Diyuan looked at him, he immediately hid his thoughts.
Perhaps in order to bring the relationship between himself and Xiao Diyuan closer, Xiao Hong smiled and said: "I don't know why, I have always thought that you were an indifferent person before you became a feudal lord, but now I am a little surprised to see you take care of me so intimately. ”
Xiao Diyuan responded with a slight smile.
Xiao Hong said: "You go and get a pen and paper, I want to write a letter to Li Pei of Zhaoguo." I dictate, you write. ”
Without hesitation, let alone objection, Xiao Diyuan immediately went to get a pen and paper.
Xiao Hong told what he meant. Xiao Diyuan wrote it word for word, and handed it to Xiao Hong after writing.
Xiao Hong saw that there was no problem, so he sent someone to send it to Zhaoguo in person.
At night, Xiao Diyuan did not leave, and stood guard in front of Xiao Hong's dragon couch.
Xiao Hong woke up several times in the night, and each time he could see Xiao Diyuan's gaze calmly looking at him.
Xiao Diyuan's eyes didn't have much emotion, but they weren't cold, they were unfathomably calm.
Xiao Hong didn't know what Xiao Diyuan thought when he looked at him. Did Xiao Diyuan ever doubt his background, and if so, to what extent?
Instinctively, Xiao Hong hoped that he had never doubted his own background, but with Xiao Diyuan's cleverness, Xiao Hong felt unlikely.
However, Xiao Hong was not panicked, because he knew that Xiao Diyuan could not find conclusive evidence, and he also believed that the evidence on Zhaoguo's side must be seriously insufficient, otherwise he would not have seen any movement for so many years.
Therefore, Xiao Hong is sure that the secret of that year will continue forever.
However, this reassurance seems to contain a worry that makes people can't help but feel heavy, as if a time bomb buried in Xiao Hong's heart, which makes Xiao Hong a little frightened when he dreams back at midnight.
At that time, he was still very young, very radical in thought, and a little unscrupulous in behavior, and the reason why he made that decision was also due to the fact that he was not sure of the status quo deep in his heart at that time, so he jumped over the wall like a dog and did something that he thought he could handle the situation. Over the years, he has been tormented by his original decision, but there is no turning back when he opens the bow, and it is useless to be annoyed at this time, so he has to try his best to hide the secret.
In the second half of the night, perhaps because Xiao Diyuan was by his side, Xiao Hong didn't sleep much, he thought about it, and said to Xiao Diyuan: "Yuan'er came all the way from the northwest, and he must be tired, go back to the room to rest." I'm fine now, and I don't need you to stay all night. ”
Xiao Diyuan got up and said, "Okay, then my father has a good rest, and his sons will come to see you after dawn." ”
After exiting the Heart Cultivation Palace, Xiao Diyuan returned to his room.
When Ding Cong saw him coming in, he immediately stepped forward to help him take off his coat, and said, "Your Majesty's situation is better, right?"
Xiao Diyuan nodded and went directly into the bathroom.
The next day, due to Xiao Honglong's poor health, he did not go to the early dynasty, and the early dynasty was taken care of by the crown prince Xiao Dikai.
Xiao Diyuan, as a vassal king, was also allowed to go to court.
Today's ministers don't have much important to do, so most of them are reporting.
Prince Xiao Dikai listened a little absent-mindedly, but he still listened to it.
After the five ministers finished reporting their work, Xiao Di said loudly when the sixth minister was about to make a report: "If there is nothing important, please report it in the form of a fold and retire from the dynasty." ”
The minister, who was about to report the matter, had no choice but to retreat to his position, kneel down with the ministers and said, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
Xiao Diyuan glanced at the back of Xiao Dikai, who couldn't wait to retreat, and then looked at the already empty hall, and there was a faint sadness in his eyes. He stood there and looked around for a moment before leaving, his expression calm and sad, but his steps were firm.
Tomorrow is the prince's marriage day, and there are people in a hurry everywhere in the palace, Xiao Diyuan went to greet Xiao Hong first, chatted with Xiao Hong for a while, and then went to see the queen Liu.
Maybe it's because the prince's wedding is imminent, Liu's face is full of joy, she beckoned Xiao Diyuan to sit down and said: "When a man gets married, a man with a family will have a stronger sense of responsibility, Yuan'er doesn't have to wait until he is twenty-five or sixteen years old to find it, if you meet a suitable one, settle it early." ”
Xiao Diyuan smiled and said very clearly: "The child has a hunch that he will not wait for his beloved to appear until that age. ”
Liu said: "The hunch may not come true, and it is better to prepare with both hands." ”
Xiao Diyuan smiled and did not answer this time.
Liu didn't say much, and patted him on the shoulder silently.
It's strange that whenever she sees him, she has something in her heart that she wants to say, but when she really wants to say it, she feels that it is not appropriate to say anything.
She felt like she couldn't grasp what was going on in his heart.
Undoubtedly, he was not someone she could easily control. When she felt that she was almost trying to figure out his thoughts, his thoughts had already been cast higher and farther.
There was a festive atmosphere in the palace, but Zhang Chenhui, the bride-to-be in Zhang's mansion, had been unhappy since this afternoon.
Zhang Chenhui's mother, Liang, was very surprised when she saw it, so she pulled her aside and asked in a low voice: "It's okay in the morning, why are you depressed in the afternoon?"
Hearing her mother's question, Zhang Chenhui suddenly burst into tears, but she still shook her head stubbornly and said, "I just thought of leaving Daddy and you, and I was reluctant." ”
Liang was obviously not convinced, lowered his voice and asked, "What is going on?"
Zhang Chenhui pulled Liang to sit down and said, "Mother, I just heard a palace maid next to the queen say that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the nurse of the Third Highness, Gong Xingji, have a relationship between men and women, and now Gong Xingji is more than four months pregnant. ”
Liang was suddenly shocked, stared at her and asked, "Is this news reliable?"
Zhang Chenhui nodded.
Liang's face sank and said, "Does the queen know about this?"
"It is said to know. ”
"What's the queen's attitude?" asked Liang softly.
"I don't know, but Gong Xingji said to the outside world that the child belonged to her and her husband. Zhang Chenhui said.
"What about His Royal Highness the Prince's attitude?" Liang asked again.
"I don't know. ”
Liang patted her on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much, you are the crown princess recognized by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, even if she gives birth to a child first, she will not be able to shake your status." ”
Zhang Chenhui said: "I'm not worried about this, I'm just uncomfortable. ”
Liang smiled and said, "After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already an adult, and as the crown prince, how can he not understand personnel before marrying a wife?
