Chapter 4: The Heart Knot

The smile on Empress Dowager Gao's face disappeared in an instant, and a trace of gloom flashed in An Yang's eyes. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Yiying's eyes were fixed on the person who came, and she didn't pay attention to these, but the moment she saw the third prince Li Yun, she was horrified, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a while.

Li Yun is dressed in dark clothes, his black hair is neatly tied, his face is angular, the bridge of his nose is high, and he is a rare young man with a good appearance, but if you look at his face carefully, you will find that the eyes that should be the best embellishment for his handsome face have no lust at all, and his walking posture is almost stiff, like a walking corpse, leaving only an empty shelf.

How so?

In her previous life, although she had only seen Li Yun a few times before he ascended the throne, every time she met, she was amazed by this person's demeanor and demeanor, even if she was not worthy of the word God King at that time, she could be called a generation of romantic figures. Later, when the prince mutinied, when he defeated the Dongyi class and returned to the dynasty, he was regarded as a god-like figure by the onlookers, where would it be this down-and-out appearance in front of him?

After Li Yun stepped forward to salute the elders, he stood aside with his hands tied, his eyes were unwavering, he didn't look at the people next to him again, and he didn't say a word.

Empress Dowager Gao sighed when she looked at it, pointed at Yiying and said, "That's your aunt's daughter, Zhaoyuan, who just came back from Anping today." ”

Li Yun's eyelids moved, and he glanced at her and then withdrew his gaze: "Cousin." "It's a greeting, and his voice is indescribably hoarse.

She got up and blessed, called her cousin, and sat down. The atmosphere froze for a moment.

An Yang bit his lip, stood up, walked to Li Yun's side, and said to Empress Dowager Gao: "Grandmother, our sister and brother have made an appointment to play a game of chess today, and the granddaughter will take the third brother first." ”

Empress Dowager Gao nodded, and An Yang left with the puppet-like Li Yun.

"Mother, what's going on?" Min Yuan frowned, before she left Beijing, the third child was not like this.

"You're not in the capital for a while, I don't know. The third concubine went. Empress Dowager Gao sighed, her tone very sad.

Min Yuan was taken aback: "At a young age, how can you ......?"

"She's always frail, and you don't know it. After nearly two years of marriage, there is no good news, and the decoction is continuous all year round, and this time I got a cold, and I was cured......"

Yi Ying glanced at Empress Dowager Gao.

Although there is some regret and heartache in the words of the Empress Dowager Gao, she is actually very unkind to this granddaughter-in-law with a low background and a weak personality.

In fact, it's not just the Empress Dowager Gao, I'm afraid the emperor thinks the same way. is also a member of the royal family, the prince and concubine died, it stands to reason that even if the mother was not there at the time, they would have to be announced immediately when they returned to Beijing, but when they returned to the Xue family, no one mentioned this matter......

She remembered that Li Yun's concubine's surname was Zheng, but she was just a daughter from Wupin Zhizhou in the local area, and that place was more than a star and a half worse than prosperous places like Jinling and Kaifeng. With such an identity, she could only be a side concubine even if she broke the sky, but at that time, the marriage of the prince was managed by Queen Song, and Li Yun married such a concubine, and she was naturally happy to see it.

So, she said that the Zheng family is a rare noble family, marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, Miss Zheng is the most suitable candidate, Li Yun was dormant at that time, and did not say anything against it, the emperor was very unwilling, and then he didn't know for what reason, so he agreed.

It's just that although the Miss Zheng family flew up to the branch overnight, she was a cowardly character, and she would shed tears when others said a few words to her loudly, and she didn't have the bearing of being a prince and concubine, and the emperor and the Empress Dowager Gao were even more upset when they looked at her, so they didn't treat her very well.

In the previous life, she remembered that the Zheng family died because she blocked the assassin's fatal sword for Li Yun, and now that she thinks about it carefully, it seems that since then, there has been no news of which side concubine Li Yun particularly favors, and after Li Yun ascended the throne, it seems that there is no queen. Could it be that Li Yun is a person with deep affection? However, what she remembers very clearly is that although the Zheng family died for Li Yun, the emperor did not agree to hold her funeral......

She guessed with some viciousness that the emperor would probably be happy to see the death of the lowly Zheng family.

These are just her guesses, but what puzzles her is that in the previous life, the Zheng family obviously died more than a year later, how could it be advanced?

Could it be that her rebirth changed something?

Min Yuan comforted Empress Dowager Gao a few words, and then took Xue Licheng's brothers and sisters to leave. Empress Dowager Gao looked very sad and didn't keep them longer.

Walking on the road, Xue Licheng whispered to her: "Sister, do you know why the third prince's cousin came to greet his grandmother at this time?" "A mysterious look.

Anyang said that he came to play chess with her, but she didn't believe a word. With Li Yun's mental state, can he still play chess? If he heard that she came to visit before returning to Beijing, it was not like it, and the way he looked at himself was just like looking at a dead thing, how could a person with a dead heart be so easy to be interested in irrelevant people?

Yiying shook her head and looked at Licheng.

Xue Licheng smiled proudly, and then sighed a little: "I heard that it was because after the third prince's cousin's concubine went, the cousin didn't think about tea and dinner all day, chasing the old man, and the grandmother looked very worried, for fear that he wouldn't be able to think about it, so she had to summon him into the palace every two days and let Cousin Anyang talk to him......"

As it was, she suddenly understood that Empress Dowager Gao's heart was knotted with the Zheng family. In her eyes, Li Yun is noble, personable, and a rare good son in the world, but she married the Zheng family, and her appearance and temperament can only be regarded as a medium woman, and after she passed away, she almost lost half of her life.

It's just that the Zheng family is also innocent, if the Song family doesn't stick a lever sideways, and she mixes with an inconspicuous side concubine, maybe she won't lose her life, and she will be unpopular when she dies......

Therefore, people should stay where they are staying, so as not to harm others and themselves.

Yiying smiled casually: "My brother knows so much. Li Cheng was very happy when he heard this, his eyebrows fluttered, and he wanted to say something else.

Min Yuan heard the whispers of the brother and sister, although the two of them quickly got acquainted, but they were also dissatisfied with Licheng's temperament, glared at him, and said in a low voice: "Be careful when you speak in the palace, and you are not afraid of being listened to." ”

Li Cheng was not afraid, and said with a smile: "Isn't there still the protection of my mother?" He was afraid that his father would say that he could not study, but he was very unbridled and happy in front of his mother.

Min Yuan glanced at him with disgust, and his heart was very useful, and now in this palace, there are only one or two people who make her jealous.

Yiying was also in a happy mood when she looked at it, she was twisted and inferior in her previous life, she had never been so close to her brother, she never knew that her brother was also such a child, and she could be happy with a compliment, which was not at all the unruly and unapproachable she thought.

The atmosphere here is harmonious, but there is a commotion in a separate courtyard of the Xue family in Guanghua.
