411. in the first place
Chu Shaoyuan was a little strange, it was so late, what was the matter with his father calling him?
He got up and straightened his clothes and walked towards the Qianyuan Palace.
At the gate of the Qianyuan Palace, Zhao Yuande was waiting with a palace lamp, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly went in to say goodbye.
Before long, the emperor in a dragon robe walked out, saw Chu Shaoyuan, and beckoned to him, "Third child, you come with me." Motioned for Chu Shaoyuan to follow.
Chu Shaoyuan hurriedly followed behind the emperor.
There is still a stream of water vapor in the air after the rain, from the brilliant inner court all the way, the scenery in front of you keeps changing, the blue bricks and vermilion paint, the cypress dyed into a continuous shadow, the blue waves in the garden ripple, the palace lights by the lake are reflected in the lake, it looks like a painting.
It wasn't until these scenery retreated far behind him, and there were only two rows of high walls of vermilion paint in front of him, that Chu Shaoyuan understood where the emperor was going.
- Stargazing Pavilion.
This is a place that has always been only the emperor would go, and only the emperor could go.
He suddenly remembered the last time he was in this place, his father's words to him, and his heart was full of curiosity, not knowing what the second half of his father's unfinished words would be. And the death of the mother concubine, is there anything strange about it? Although he was young at the time, after witnessing the whole process, he had already decided that he was the poisoner of the queen, if there was really something else hidden, he really shouldn't be so impulsive.
Thinking wildly in his heart, he unconsciously had ascended to the empty platform on the top floor of the Stargazing Pavilion.
He couldn't help but look at the emperor, hoping that he would say something, but he was afraid that he would really say something, and he was extremely conflicted in his heart.
The emperor looked at the Yunfu City in front of him with a daze, at this moment the sky has completely darkened, and thousands of lights are dotted under the sky, each lamp is a family, and it represents a hope and a little warmth.
But the little warmth that belonged to him was lost by him more than ten years ago.
"Yishu, when you were outside the palace, did you ever resent your father?" The Emperor's cold voice sounded like a bright red loneliness in it.
Chu Shaoyuan didn't expect the emperor to suddenly ask him this question, he was stunned for a moment, nodded first, then shook his head, and his voice was clear: "...... I was a little resentful before, but at first I knew that my father did not allow my son to return to the palace, and I was very sad in my heart, I only felt that my father must not like his son, so he didn't want to see his son, so he put his son outside the palace, but then I saw a lot, and I gradually lost this idea. ”
The emperor frowned, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart, so he paused for a while before asking, "What did you see later?" ”
Chu Shaoyuan's eyes flashed, and he recalled softly: "I lived in the alley of Guang'an Temple before, and the three religions and nine streams in the market, what kind of people have seen it, at that time I was resentful, I just felt that no one was willing to want myself, so I would follow my aunt to hide in such a place, and live such a difficult life, at that time, the children in the alley liked to bully their sons, and the words were also ugly scolding, and the son was born badly since he was a child, and he couldn't beat it, so he was always angry, and later, a monk who preached the scriptures came to the temple, and he played very well with his fists and feet, and his son pestered the monk, let him be his son's master, learned some kung fu on the fist and foot, and then gradually no one dared to bully his son, when his son was eight years old, Lord Xia took his son into the house, as a parent-like upbringing, and no one dared to bully his son after that, even Lord Xia's children mostly let their sons, in the Xia family, sons rarely have unsatisfactory times......"
He said while looking down, in the eyes of the emperor, these are just the lights of the people, just the world, but in his eyes, these are real lives, the days that have been experienced since childhood, are arbitrary, happy, although with some forbearance, but because of another emotion, and contentment.
"Sometimes in the school to see others cast a strange gaze, the heart is not happy, just think about the days in the Guang'an Temple Hutong, I don't care, the monk master has a Zen saying well, 'The Buddha said that everything has cause and effect, and the devil said that all are in me.'" All living beings have no appearance, and it is all me who become a Buddha and become a demon'. ”
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, his delicate facial features instantly came alive, and the cinnabar mole under the corner of his eye was even more moving under the cover of the palace lamp.
The emperor looked at his face very similar to the woman on the tip of his heart, his heart was extremely sour, he was only fifteen years old this year, but he had already realized such a truth, he knew early on that the days outside the palace were not so good, but he did not dare to take him back, for fear that he would not have the ability to protect himself, and once again he was wrongly injured by himself, so he had to be far away from the palace, only hoping that he could be stable for a lifetime.
But now let's take a look at these sons of his, but none of them can take on the world like him.
The emperor looked at the prosperous night of Yunfu City fixedly, and felt both relieved and a little sad: "You have been asking me if you can know how your mother died, I am afraid that you are young and will do stupid things after you know, but now that you have grown up, there are some things that you should know." ”
The emperor's words were full of memories, like an old past being lifted away, and the yellow memories suddenly came flooding over, instantly annihilating him.
"The day your mother went, I was still hunting in the paddock in Dingzhou, the autumn of that day came late, the autumn tiger was very rampant, your mother fell ill when she gave birth to you, and the weather was hot and there was a rash on the body, and there was still a hidden ice branch in the palace, but the palace in Dingzhou did not hide a lot of ice, so she stayed in the palace......"
There was a little choking in his cold voice, but it was covered up by him in an instant, "Your mother is very smart, even among men, this intelligence is also one of the best, but it is a pity to become a woman, she often says that if she is a man, she will not lose to my courtiers, it is not good for me, I know that she does not deal with the queen, but she still insists on leaving her in the palace, but later, she really ......"
Chu Shaoyuan was stunned, the queen and the mother concubine have not dealt with each other, this is something that everyone in the palace has known a few years ago, but after the death of the mother concubine, the queen has not been affected at all, and even the punishment is a small punishment and a big commandment, he has always thought that his father will sue him for some other reason, but his father has never explained, as if the death of the mother concubine was expected, and everyone was not surprised.
The father only said that he regretted it, but the queen was not involved in the words, could it be ...... He was startled by the thought that came to him out of nowhere.
The emperor tried to suppress the remorse in his heart, Si Ren has passed away, no matter how sad it is, it is useless, since his son is a plastic talent, then he must help his son up, so as to be worthy of the woman with a blue heart.
"Yishu, you are doing a good job in Yanmen Pass, my father is very pleased to see you so bold and responsible, and now you are not small, in a few days, let Concubine Zhuang Zhang Luo tell you a family, and start a family as soon as possible."
