**
On the tenth day of December in the seventh year of Emperor Kaiping of the Great Liang Kingdom, the princess of the Great Liang Dynasty became also shadowed in the Xishan Reclining Buddha Temple in the western suburbs of Xuanping City, and gave birth to twin sons of the dragon and phoenix in one day, taking the small characters Anran and Anping. Sister Anran, son Anping, meaning peace and tranquility.
On the same day, the crown princess Cheng Yiying died in the courtyard of the West Road of the Reclining Buddha Temple due to dystocia and blood collapse......
**
In the brightly lit meditation room, after Cheng Yiying died, Leng Qing didn't cry, didn't do any useless work, just sat silently by Cheng Yiying's bed for a long, long time, until ...... Even Leng Qing herself doesn't know how much time has passed......
Leng Qing just sat silently on the edge of Cheng Yiying's bed, motionless as if an old monk had settled down......
I don't know how much time has passed, but I suddenly saw Leng Qing, who was sitting silently on the edge of the bed, slowly raised her hand and stretched out towards Cheng Yiying, who was still lying on the bed but had long been lifeless, with her eyebrows and eyes closed......
In the next moment, I saw Leng Qing silently, carefully and carefully arranging her messy bun for Cheng Yiying......
After a while, after Wei Cheng Yiying roughly tidied up his scattered bun, Leng Qing got up silently, took a step back, and then ...... Leng Qing bent her knees and knelt straight down towards Cheng Yiying, who was lying on the bed......
Kneeling on his knees, looking up at Cheng Yiying who was lying on the bed silently, Leng Qing's thin lips opened slightly, word by word, and his voice was low but the words were clear: "Crown Princess, I happened to save you once on Qinshan by chance." Later, I unfortunately died, although the person who rescued me was Liang Shengxiao, but it was you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who were not afraid of trouble and brought me back to Daliang.
And then during the days when I lived temporarily in the Prince's Mansion, it was also the Crown Princess that you always took care of me, and you were thorough in all aspects, and never let me have any grievances. Even if you knew that I was going to enter the palace, you didn't say anything to me, and I appreciate that. Crown Princess, although you and I have only known each other for a few months, the kindness between you and me has long been incalculated.
I won't say those fanciful vows, but as long as it's something that I can't do, even if there is a sea of swords and fires ahead, I'll break through. The fact that the crown princess can entrust An Ran and An Ping to me proves that the crown princess believes in me! Since the crown princess believes in me and I am cold, I will definitely not live up to the trust of the crown princess!
Today, I, Leng Qing, swear here--From now on, as long as I live Leng Qing for one day, safe and peaceful, I will be safe for one day! If anyone wants to hurt An Ran and Anping, unless I die! Crown Princess, you can go on the road with peace of mind! May you be under the Yellow Spring, and you can be with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... Stay ...... long"
After saying this word by word, the voice was low but the words were clear, Leng Qing slowly raised his hands to his forehead, folded his hands, pressed the back of his left hand with the palm of his right hand, and then, Leng Qing slowly bowed down to Cheng Yiying who was lying on the bed......
After bowing three times in a row, Leng Qing stood up, turned around, and walked towards the door of the brightly lit meditation room......
When Leng Qing walked out of the door of the meditation room, she saw at first glance standing in the brightly lit courtyard, surrounded by a group of palace maids and guards from the prince's mansion, each holding a sky-blue swaddling Lu Xueyue and Qinghe.
The two children, perhaps tired of crying, were now very quiet and did not cry.
Standing at the door of the meditation room, looking around at the people standing in the meditation courtyard, almost everyone has a happy face as far as the eye can see, which is a kind of joy full of hope for the future.
In a trance, Leng Qing actually felt that the thin door panel beside her seemed to divide two completely different worlds, and she ...... At this moment, we are standing at the dividing point of these "two worlds......
On that side, everyone standing in the Zen courtyard also noticed Leng Qing who appeared at the door of the meditation room, so everyone shifted their eyes to look at Leng Qing, and called the words "Zhaoyi Niangniang" with a smile in unison.
In the face of everyone's call with joy, Leng Qing, who was standing at the door of the meditation room, was silent for a moment, and then announced word by word in a voice that everyone could hear: "Princess...... Dead ......"
As soon as Leng Qing said this, everyone present was stunned for a while, and the smiles on some people's faces froze on their faces before they even had time to disperse. The Zen temple, which was originally jubilant, fell into a deathly silence in an instant......
After a long time, in the brightly lit and overcrowded, but eerily quiet Zen courtyard, a low and trembling voice sounded: "Zhaoyi Niangniang...... You say...... What??"
The person who asked the question was the younger brother in the dragon and phoenix womb - Qinghe......
On this side, Leng Qing followed the sound and looked at Qing He's face, looking at Qing He who was holding the baby in his arms and his face was pale, Leng Qing was silent for a moment, and finally repeated in a deep voice: "Crown Princess...... Dead. ā
As soon as Leng Qing said this, Qing He, who was holding the baby in his arms, seemed to have received some fright, and immediately took a step back, and at the same time muttered with a pale face and blank eyes: "What...... How...... Will ......"
"Niangniang!!!" After Qiu Yun, who came back to her senses, screamed with red eyes, she raised her feet and rushed into the brightly lit meditation room behind Leng Qing.
Leng Qing didn't stop Qiu Yun, but took the initiative to stand aside and gave up the door that entered the meditation room to Qiu Yun.
Seeing this, some of the people in the Zen courtyard also rushed to the brightly lit meditation room behind Leng Qing with Qiu Yun, and some stood in place in a daze, crying the word "Niangniang" with tears in their eyes......
Maybe it's because of the defense of men and women, maybe it's because of the difference in identity, in short, all the people who rushed into the meditation room were palace maids, and those who stayed in place were some male guards and some palace maids......
From this moment on, the original joyful atmosphere completely disappeared, and the brightly lit Zen courtyard was filled with heavy sadness, as well as high and low sobbing and whimpering......
At this time, looking at the chaotic crowd with cold eyes, Leng Qing walked in front of Qing He, who was still stunned in place, looked at Qing He intently, opened his lips, and said softly: "Qing He, give me His Royal Highness." ā
Hearing Leng Qing's words, Qing He was still in a trance for a while before he came back to his senses completely, and then saw Qing He suddenly condensed her sloppy gaze and stared at Leng Qing, and secretly hugged the sky-blue swaddling clothes in her arms with both hands, a defensive posture for fear that Leng Qing would snatch people, and called in a low voice: "Zhaoyi Niangniang......"
Qinghe will never forget that when Liu Chunxiang said that he wanted to give up the big and protect the small, because Qinghe strongly opposed Liu Chunxiang's proposal, he was ordered to leave the Zen room where Cheng Yiying lived!!
Although Leng Qing still let Qinghe return to the meditation room after that...... But at the moment when Leng Qing drank and ordered Qing He to leave, Qing He already had a hurdle in his heart, a very deep hurdle......
In Qing He's heart, Leng Qing's behavior of letting her leave the meditation room actually shows that Leng Qing agrees with the matter of "giving up the big and keeping the small...... In other words, Leng Qing is not ...... at all I don't care if her mother lives or dies!!
In Qinghe's opinion, although the friendship between Cheng Yiying and Leng Qing is not necessarily deep, Cheng Yiying's treatment of Leng Qing is indeed excellent! Now that Cheng Yiying has died, Leng Qing is ...... But he didn't even feel half sad and sad......
In the face of a cold-blooded person like Leng Qing, Qing He really didn't dare to hand over the child in her arms to Leng Qing - Liang Shengde and Cheng Yiying were gone, and Qing He felt that she had an obligation to take on the burden of protecting the children!
At this time, Qing He's defense of himself, Leng Qing naturally saw it, but Leng Qing didn't care. Not only because Qinghe's loyalty to Cheng Yiying is indeed something to learn from heaven and earth, but also because ...... Leng Qing really doesn't have the mood and energy to care about this kind of thing now......
Leng Qing now, she just wants to find a place where no one is around, quietly, and stay alone......
But...... Reality does not allow Leng Qing to be alone in the current situation at all, because there are still many things waiting for Leng Qing to deal with!!
Therefore, in the face of Qing He's defense, Leng Qing, who looked calm, just explained in a deep voice: "Where is the crown princess...... You still need to take care of it. At least...... Let the crown princess go to Jiuquan to see His Royal Highness the prince decently, cleanly and neatly. The crown princess was always there for you when she was alive, and it was best for you to do these things.
Get busy for a while...... It's always inconvenient for you to take your little highness with you. Especially the little princess and the little highness have just been born, and here ...... Not suitable for little princesses and little highnesses to stay for a long time. For the time being, I will take the little princess and her little highness to the Zen courtyard where I live, and when you have taken care of the affairs of the crown princess here, you can come to my courtyard if you are willing to come. ā
āā¦ā¦ Then the little princess and the little highness will trouble Zhaoyi Niangniang to take care of it. Faced with Leng Qing's words, Qing He was silent for a moment, but finally reached out and carefully handed over the sky-blue swaddling clothes she was holding in her arms to Leng Qing's arms.
After carefully taking the swaddling clothes in Qing He's hand, Leng Qing hugged the child and looked at Lu Xueyue, who was also holding a sky blue swaddling clothes on the side, and said in a deep voice: "Xiaoyue, let's go." ā
After that, without waiting for Lu Xueyue to answer, Leng Qing, who was holding the younger brother in the dragon and phoenix fetus, had already taken the lead and left.
Seeing this, Lu Xueyue didn't want to say anything to Qinghe, so she only nodded to Qinghe, and Lu Xueyue hugged her sister in the dragon and phoenix womb and chased after Leng Qing who was leaving......
Qing He had been watching Leng Qing and Lu Xueyue, who were holding babies in their arms, pass through the crowd one after another, and after leaving the brightly lit Zen courtyard, Qing He turned around and walked towards the meditation room where Cheng Yiying was with heavy steps......
In this compartment, because the newborn baby was in poor spirits and extremely sleepy, when Leng Qing and Lu Xueyue took the two little babies to the Zen courtyard where Leng Qing lived, the two children fell asleep halfway.
In other words, although Leng Qing and Lu Xueyue did not help Cheng Yiying during the production process, from beginning to end, Leng Qing and Lu Xueyue stayed outside Cheng Yiying's room and never left the Zen courtyard where Cheng Yiying lived...... The main reason is that Leng Qing refuses and does not dare to leave, and if Leng Qing does not leave, Lu Xueyue can naturally only stay......
In short, Leng Qing and Lu Xueyue stood in Cheng Yiying's courtyard for a whole day today, and even because of worries in their hearts, they didn't even eat lunch and dinner...... The bodies of the two are not very tired, but their hearts are tired to the extreme! and the heart is tired, which makes people feel tired more than the body......
Therefore, after the two returned to the Zen courtyard where Leng Qing lived, Leng Qing and Lu Xueyue directly sent the two children to the Zen room where Leng Qing lived, and put the two children on the bed and let them sleep on their own......
In the meditation room with a lamp like a bean, looking down at the two little babies lying side by side on the bed who were wrapped in swaddling clothes of the same color, Leng Qing was silent for a moment, and Fang opened his mouth and whispered: "Xiaoyue, you take care of it here, I'...... Go out and breathe. ā
After all, you have to find a way to express the emotions in your heart, and holding it for too long will only suffocate yourself......
On that side, Lu Xueyue, who was standing in front of the bed and carefully arranging the swaddling clothes of the two babies, heard this, stood up straight and looked at Leng Qing, and responded with a respectful smile: "Yes, girl, go ahead! There are slaves and maids to take care of them, and there will be no problems." ā
Hearing Lu Xueyue say this, Leng Qing didn't say anything more, nodded directly at Lu Xueyue and turned around and walked in the direction of the wide open door.
The reason why Leng Qing had to keep an eye on these two children before was because she was afraid that there would be many people in Cheng Yiying's yard, and there would be some people fishing in troubled waters, and what would happen to the children. And now--
In this empty Zen courtyard, there are only Leng Qing and Lu Xueyue and two little babies who are ignorant of the world and sleep unconsciously, and some of the things that Leng Qing was worried about before are not to worry about for the time being.
Therefore, Leng Qing is still relieved to let Lu Xueyue take care of the two little babies...... After all, now in this Reclining Buddha Temple, except for Fang Linyang, whose identity is known to be Zhu Zimo, Leng Qing can only believe in Lu Xueyue......
After slowly walking out of the door of the meditation room and walking straight to the empty Zen courtyard, Leng Qing looked up at the sky, but found that he didn't know when the moon had gone to the middle of the sky......
Before you know it, time ...... It's the second half of the night......
In this way, it is no longer the tenth day of December, but the early morning of December 11......
Speaking of which, what happened on this day was too much, too chaotic. As soon as he calmed down at this moment, those chaotic emotions and thoughts poured into Leng Qing's heart and mind like a tide.
At first, Leng Qing was skeptical about Liang Shengde's death, because Leng Qing didn't believe that Liang Shengde would die from some rogue attack, after all, the 2,000 Royal Forest Army who were traveling with him were not vegetarian......s! Liang Shengde's body is indeed extremely bad...... So Leng Qing couldn't tell if Liang Shengde's death was real......
However, after seeing Cheng Yiying, Leng Qing completely believed that Liang Shengde was real...... He is gone......
