Chapter Seventy-Three: Empress Wu Yan
"Mother, mother. Panting Wind River, his footsteps were fast, and his face was sunny.
Wu Yan, who was closing her eyes and pretending to sleep in the emperor's **, opened a pair of slightly melancholy apricot eyes and looked at the wind river that ran in along the light. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said with some pampering: "It's such a big person, and I don't know how to be stable." ”
Wind River gave his mother a bright smile. "Father said I would have dinner with you tonight. ”
Wu Yan's half-lying body sat up suddenly, grabbed Feng He's arm with one hand, and asked eagerly, "Huang'er, are you telling the truth?"
Feng He looked at his mother and nodded vigorously at her, "It was my father who said it to his son." ”
Wu Yan stood up from the soft couch at once.
"Come on, come on, I'm going to freshen up. The voice of excitement and joy wafted through the wide and deserted dormitory.
Feng He, who was sitting on the edge of the soft couch, had a trace of mist and sadness in his eyes, and he endured the moisture in his eyes, and said to Wu Yan with a smile, "Queen Mother, it's only noon. ”
Hearing this, Wu Yan, who was still excited, was suddenly a little stunned, and her beautiful face was a little disappointed, and she said softly for a while, "It's noon." ”
Feng He gently pulled her mother's arm and helped her back on the soft couch, comforting: "Don't be anxious, the queen mother will be in a hurry soon." ”
Two lines of tears slipped from the corners of Wu Yan's eyes unconsciously.
Feng He, who was on the side of the "Queen Mother", didn't know how to comfort his mother.
After a long time, Wu Yan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked at a blooming chrysanthemum in front of the window and said in a low voice: "The chrysanthemum exhibition will be held in two days, right?"
Feng He's eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and then he replied as if he was no longer intended: "The queen mother's body is like this, even if you hold a chrysanthemum exhibition, you can't go to watch it, and your son will buy the best chrysanthemums in the capital and put them in your bedroom, you don't need to go out of the palace to see the most beautiful chrysanthemums in the world." ”
Wu Yan shook her head slightly and said sadly: "Emperor, you don't have to comfort me. I've heard about this year's Chrysanthemum Exhibition, and your father is going to go with the one in the Qingli Palace. ”
Hearing the three words of Qingli Palace, Feng He's eyes were still clear and clear, and there was immediately gloomy resentment.
"Queen Mother, if you are in such a body, even if you can go out, your sons will not let you go. He pretended to be indifferent.
Tears overflowed from Wu Yan's beautiful apricot eyes again.
"Ahem. She coughed softly, and Wind River picked her up and patted her on the back. After breathing a sigh of relief, Wu Yan said softly: "Your father and I met at the Chrysanthemum Exhibition. ”
"At that time, your father was just like your age, with his hair simply tied up, wearing a dark purple brocade robe, and his whole person was domineering and mighty. The sadness on his face gradually faded, revealing deep nostalgia.
"At that time, he took Feng Xuan and Feng Fei with him, and I still remember that as soon as your father appeared, the noisy square suddenly fell silent, and everyone who could see him opened their mouths with envy. At that time, it was also my most beautiful time, and there were countless princes and nobles following behind me. But since I met your father and queen that time, I can no longer tolerate others in my eyes. Wu Yan continued to speak softly, not paying attention to the impatience on Du Fenghe's face.
"Well, Queen Mother, you've said this many times. Feng He said to Wu Yan lightly.
Wu Yan wiped a tear from the corner of her eye, and said to Fenghe a little bitterly: "He'er, are you annoying me too?"
Feng He hurriedly patted Wu Yan on the back, and a smile appeared in his mouth: "How can Erchen annoy the queen mother, I'm just afraid that you are not in good health, and if you talk too much, it will hurt your vitality." "Hey, it's hurt, I know my own body. The weak voice heard Wind River's ears, and his heart was lightly pricked.
"I understand that your father did not have the support of his mother's family, and your grandfather was the marshal of the military department, so he married me. But I always thought that as long as I treat him with my heart, one day he will accept me with my heart. He was kind to me in the first few years, especially when he gave birth to you, he was really good to me. Speaking of this, there was a touch of warmth in Wu Yan's eyes.
"Ahem," there were a few more coughs, and Feng He just patted his mother's back in the back, not daring to show the slightest impatience on his face.
After a moment of relief, Wu Yan continued: "But as soon as I worked hard, I was blown clean on the day of Feng Xuan's wedding, and I could see clearly that the moment Chang Ruoli lifted the red hijab, your father's soul was no longer in him." Tears fell like beads of broken threads, and Wu Yan couldn't hold back the sadness in her heart and cried after all. "Queen Mother, please don't say it again, say that once you are injured once, without your father, don't you still have me. Feng He behind him turned to his mother Wu Yan, half-squatted on the ground and helped his mother's legs, and said pleadingly.
"You are waiting for the day when your sons will inherit the throne, and I must make that woman worse than dead. The originally handsome face became distorted, and a pair of eyes burned with the flame of hatred.
Before the words could be spoken, he was blocked by a thin hand, "What are you talking nonsense?" Wu Yan reprimanded in a low voice.
Looking at Feng He, who was half-kneeling in front of him, Wu Yan lightly took the hand that was blocking Feng He's mouth, sighed lightly for a moment and said to Feng He: "Get up, don't be so reckless in the future." ”
Feng He nodded, and the look on his face gradually recovered.
"Yun'er," Wu Yan called softly.
"Hey," a crisp voice outside the door agreed, and followed a pale pink palace maid in.
"What's the matter with the mother?" A face of wit and acumen.
"Stand at the door. Wu Yan said in a low voice.
"Yes, mother," she bowed her head and withdrew.
After watching the palace maid named Yun'er withdraw, Wu Yan took Feng He's hand and said softly, "Fortunately, mother has such a filial son as you." It can be regarded as God's compensation for his mother. She said as she reached out and tidied it up at the collar of Feng He, and then said: "It's just that Feng Ze I look at it but I am getting more and more uneasy, although he is not the parent of Qingli Palace, but he has grown up with her since he was a child, and he has been deeply influenced by her, and I know very well the temperament of your father, he loves that woman so much that the things she has used are treasures to him, not to mention Feng Ze who has grown up by her side since childhood." ”
Hearing this, Feng He's face changed and changed, and a touch of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
After coughing a few more times, Wu Yan took a few sips of tea in front of the soft couch, and after putting down the teacup, she continued: "Fortunately, your grandfather is still the generalissimo of the military department, and now Qin Anwen has the most heart of your father and emperor in addition to the prime minister, and his two sons are both generals stationed at the border pass with heavy troops, as long as you can marry his daughter, Dalong's country is stable and you are the emperor." The more she arrived, the quieter her voice became. After speaking, her pair of apricot eyes no longer had the sadness and melancholy in front of her, and became bright and flickering, exuding a trace of joy and excitement. Like the eyes of a soldier who is about to be defeated on the battlefield.
Wind River looked at his mother's face, which was a little red from excitement, and he didn't know how to deal with it.
"What's wrong?" Wu Yan noticed that Wind River's expression was wrong.
"Erchen has proposed to Qin Min, but she refused. Without waiting for Wu Yan to ask why he was busy, he continued to whisper: "Yesterday, I heard that she actually took the initiative to greet Chang Yuening who came from Yanlong at the gate of Huitianxia. ”
"It's the fourth prince born to Fengxi, right?"
Wind River nodded.
After thinking for a while, Wu Yan continued: "Tomorrow, you go and invite the two princes born to your Aunt Fengxi to enter the palace, I should have seen them a long time ago, your Imperial Aunt had a very good relationship with me before she got married." I heard that Yuening also brought the future princess, and even invited her to come. and invited Qin Min to come, and the queen mother wanted to see her reaction. ”
At this moment, Wu Yan is like a soldier on the march, without the slightest sickness.
