Chapter 411: Between the Bright Moon and the Clouds
A bright moon was covered by the clouds, and everything in the world was overshadowed, and the breeze brought the coolness of autumn into the deep palace hall, and countless candles jumped and restlessed, just like the mood of Jinglu, hanging high, unable to let go, and unable to give up.

An elderly minister walked to his side from outside the hall, glanced at the window along the Jing Road, and when he turned his head, he asked with worry and unwillingness:
"Lord Wang, the enthronement ceremony is coming, do you really give up the blessing ceremony?"
"As I said, there is no need to discuss this matter again. Jing Lu replied with a fixed gaze and an expressionless face.
"But Lord Wang, is it true that just for the sake of this Yan Muxi, you have already pushed the enthronement ceremony again and again, and at this time, when you can no longer push it, do you really plan to break the ancestral system and go against the sky for such a folk girl of the Song Dynasty?"
"The ancestral system is set by the ancestors, and it can be adjusted in time to keep pace with the times, and if I really have a move against the sky, let God punish me." Jing Lu's cold tone made Lao Chen gasp.
was silent for a long time, and was unwilling to persuade him: "Lord, the world knows that you value love and righteousness, so they are looking forward to having a Ming monarch ascend to the throne as soon as possible, but whether it is the ancestral system or customs, this is what the people value, it is a harbinger of whether Daliao can be a country and a peaceful country in the future, and it is the top priority of the people's aspirations. ”
Jing Lu couldn't help but ponder, retracted his gaze, looked back at the old minister, his loyal gaze, shining with joy, he thought that Jing Lu must have been moved by him, and would change his mind, but he never thought that Jing Lu came out to persuade him:
"I know that you are loyal to me, everything you say is true, but, do you know, Xiao Yun once told me that at the blessing ceremony, the blood of Getel was asked to sacrifice, perhaps, Mu Xi's life was taken on the spot, I don't care what the world thinks, and I don't care what the people think, I would rather lose everything than lose the life of my beloved. ”
As soon as these words came out, the old minister was so surprised that his mouth opened wide and he was speechless for a long time before he stepped forward and asked, "But the prince, first of all, there may be other ways to replace Miss Yan's sacrifice;
"There is no way, if there is, Xiao Yun has already found it, I can't care so much, if Gertel is not Mu Xi, I am willing to change anyone, but, only her, she can't die, even the possibility of death can be had." ”
The old minister still wanted to persuade again, but Jing Lu had no patience, and waved his arm hard, and suddenly the hall was silent.
Looking at the figure of the old minister leaving angrily with unwilling anger, Jing Lu looked out of the window again, but at this time, it was changed to the direction of the palace where she was, where the lights were like day, and a guard had just come to report that she had just checked her body for Yan Hao.
She always takes care of all the people around her like this, whether it is enemies or relatives, whether it is a maid or herself, he believes more and more that she is the real god descending to earth, it is the fairy in the sky who came to the world and came to his side, not only helped him win the imperial power that he coveted for half his life, but also relieved the difficulties and cured the diseases for all sentient beings.
Since this is her nature, he fully accepts all her practices and requirements, what he needs is such a kind fairy, who has no intention of harming others, and will only help others completely, but he always gives up himself and allows himself to suffer a lot in vain.
He wanted to use his strength to protect her from suffering, and he hoped that she would give him a chance to protect her, although he knew that there were already many loyal guards by her side.
There is a trace of luck in his heart, if he really goes against the sky, he will not get the current power and status, he believes that in the dark, God is in favor of what he does, even if there is no blessing ceremony, he can still get the imperial power, and the so-called people's will, sooner or later will bow to power, these humble grass people know what, as long as they have food, they will be at ease to keep themselves.
"Lord, Lord, Lord"
A hurried voice came from outside the temple.
"Why are you so impatient?"
"Lord Wang, it's not good with the prince, the imperial doctor has nothing to do, please ask the prince to ask Master Xi to save his life quickly. The guard waited anxiously for Jing Lu's response, and thought that he would get an answer immediately, but he never thought about it, and heard a sentence:
"Okay, this king knows, go down. ”
The guards thought they had misheard, and when they hesitated, Cangzhu stepped in from outside the hall and sent him away.
"Lord, it's late at night, do you want to rest?"
Cangzhu picked up the candle flame close to Jing Lu's side a little brighter, respectfully leaned to his side, and asked softly.
The implication is that he slept, and Tong'er slept too, but he would never wake up again.
Jing Lu walked to the window, in the distant sky, the bright moon was wandering among the clouds, looming, just like his mood at this time, hovering left and right.
"Lord Wang, just now a guard came to report, Master Xi had a cool breeze in the night, and he seemed to be unwell, I have ordered the guard to inquire about the details immediately, and report back immediately. ”
Cangzhu whispered softly, between her eyebrows and eyes, she looked at Jinglu.
It seems to be an unrelated matter, Jing Lu's mind was immediately gathered by Mu Xi's body, if, at this time, Tong'er died silently like this, no matter how he explained to Mu Xi, I am afraid that he would never see her understanding again, and even, it may make her stay away from him forever and hate him.
Throwing a mouse bogey, he had to think about Mu Xi's attitude, and after thinking about it, he saw Cangzhu's expectant expression.
has been by his side for too long, his mind has been penetrated by Cangzhu, and he actually knows how to use Mu Xi to remind him how to decide Tong'er's life and death.
It can be regarded as Cangzhu's reminder that it makes sense, Jing Lu smiled lightly, and glanced at Cangzhu, with a resentful face, but there was no reprimand:
"Alright, just do as you say. ”
Cangzhu immediately bowed deeply, "Lord, Cangzhu didn't say anything. ”
"Okay, it's all fine, is this also what I learned from Mu Xi? They have become so tactful, saving me enough face, and putting forward their own opinions, which are becoming more and more tactful. ”
"Cangzhu won't dare in the future"
Seeing Cangzhu's frightened appearance, Jing Lu gently comforted: "I don't mean to blame you, on the contrary, you did the right thing, especially after ascending the throne, this point is even more important and critical, go for it, don't delay the big thing." ”
Cangzhu regained his expression and ran out smoothly and calmly.
Jing Lu looked at the bright moon in the sky, as if he saw her face, it was also so white, and it was shining like this, the slightly curved moon, like her smiling face, looking down and smiling eyes, she could directly see through his heart, only to see the deepest pain and love in her heart, in this life, with her alone, it is enough.
