Yu Yichen said: "Just as when I inadvertently gave away that dog, it was destined for you and me to have the parting we should have today." When the emperor was still in the East Palace, all this was doomed. If we don't deal with the courtiers, we will become puppets, and the court will become a fat sheep for the family. We took action, uprooted these families one by one, and in the end they were also a praying mantis fluttering cicada, and the yellow finch was later. Sweep the empty court. Du Wu is in the prime of his military power, the emperor has no heirs, or he can delay it for two years, and now that the prince has it, what is the use of him still wanting the emperor? ”

Zhenshu felt that she had become a very bad, very bad person, because she almost opened her mouth and said, "The child may not be able to be raised, why are you in such a hurry?" ”

Yu Yichen said: "As long as Du Wu and the queen can work together, they can naturally protect that child to grow up." ”

Zhenshu suddenly realized: "So, the queen and Du Wu have formed an alliance?" ”

Yu Yichen said: "Yes." This is the biggest variable that the emperor and I never expected. ”

Zhenshu pushed away Yu Yichen and shook his head and said: "I still can't understand these complicated things, I want to sleep well now, are you still willing to sleep with me?" ”

The two got into the quilt and lay down, Yu Yichen stretched out his hand to caress her slightly bulging belly, and asked, "Can you move?" ”

Zhenshu said: "Occasionally. Kick it hard, and when you actually touch it, he doesn't move again. ”

Yu Yichen still stretched out his hand to caress it and asked, "How many months?" ”

Zhenshu silently calculated for a long time and said: "More than five months." ”

Yu Yichen said: "When the queen was pregnant, her belly was not bulging like this for more than five months. ”

Zhen Shu angrily kicked the quilt and asked, "Are you a eunuch for the emperor or a eunuch for the queen?" Why do you know how big her belly was when she was pregnant? ”

Yu Yichen regretted his words, but still explained without changing his face: "Her stomach was the top priority in the palace at the beginning, how could I not know." ”

Zhenshu hated and said: "I don't believe it, you must also hug her like you hugged me and stroked her belly." ”

She glared at him angrily, with some ferocity between her eyebrows, a pair of apricot eyes that were round, and a few pretty freckles on her face, still his favorite look.

Yu Yichen couldn't help laughing, and kissed Zhenshu twice on the cheek and said, "I love to see you jealous the most." ”

Zhenshu turned his head and pretended to be asleep, and when Yu Yichen's breathing was stable, he turned to look at him sideways, stretched out his hand and lightly swiped between his eyebrows, wanting to imprint his whole appearance in his heart. She didn't understand the things in the court, she only knew that when she didn't fall in love with him, she knew that he was a bad person, a bad person who would eventually be punished. She gradually fell in love with him in the hatred and curses of others, and finally fell into this deformed love and could not extricate herself, and now she has to watch him be punished.

"Sleep." Yu Yichen suddenly opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Who will watch the child for you when you cry blind?" ”

Zhenshu wiped his tears and shrunk into his slightly thin chest, using the heat of his own body to warm his cold chest. Whimpered, "Why did you get yourself to where you are now? Even if the East Palace had the grace of knowing you at the beginning, you also practiced literature and martial arts with him, you should know the way of a gentleman, good life and not good death, good virtue but not evil, why do you have to do many evil things? ”

Yu Yichen hugged Zhenshu tightly and said: "It was a cold winter about twenty years ago, and the snow could not be stopped for several days, and I lived alone on a bare bed in a broken house in Yongxiang, waiting for the death that slowly came. The wind and snow drifted in and covered my body, and the chill that pierced my bones lingered. Li Xuze, who was still the crown prince at that time, somehow escaped the eyes of a group of palace maids and eunuchs and ran into Yongxiang. ”

He stretched out his hand and described: "He is also about my size, wearing a cloak of golden brocade with a fur inside, and holding a hot glutinous dumpling in his arms. Curiously, he lay down on the head of the long bunk bed, untied the doufeng and put it on me, and handed me the hot dumplings. When the Queen Mother came with the eunuchs and palace maids, he asked me to accompany me. This is how I was able to be healed by the medicinal soup and accompany him until adulthood. ”

He smiled slightly bitterly: "Of course, I also hide some things from him, but most of the things are still done for him." I have failed to live up to him. But I'm a freak, and I can't erase the desire to destroy all good things in my bones, so I often mess around and do things that can soothe my own heart but harm the world, but I never regret it. In this world, I have nowhere to come from, and I have nowhere to go, and if hell can be expected, it is the only place to return. The only one I've ever hurt and I'm sorry is you. ”

Zhenshu patted Yu Yichen's hand and said, "Sleep." ”

He will be responsible for the blood on his hands, and then she will go to hell with him.

Early the next morning, they still went out together, Yu Yichen sent Zhenshu to Dongshi before leaving, Zhenshu untied Luo Yi and gave him it, and told him again: "If there is really that day, no matter where you are, under what circumstances, you must remember to call someone to come to me, I will go to see you off, take the hairpin." ”

Yu Yichen said: "Okay." ”

He was still wearing a red and black-edged eunuch suit, covered with the tooth-colored fur and velvet robe, and watched Zhenshu enter the door and close the door, still standing with his head up, for a long time, until Sun Yuan urged twice before getting into the carriage. Mei Xun walked with the car and said in a small voice that only Yu Yichen could hear: "I see that Miss Song's heart is still towards your father-in-law." Why didn't we make a decision early and come out of the way? ”

Yu Yichen didn't lift the curtain either, smiling and saying nothing inside the curtain. He is always willing to hear people talk about Zhenshu, of course, it is better to say that Zhenshu likes him. Although he is sure in his heart, he always wants others to know and be sure.

At this time, there is a crescent moon in the sky, which is the scene of the beginning of winter. The last time he proposed to her was about two months ago, when she had already been married, but she didn't know it yet. At that time, he loved her and was still selfish, and wanted her to go with him and escape from a glimmer of life.

But there are too many things that have happened in these two months, from knowing that she was pregnant, to Tong Qisheng openly arresting her, to being humiliated by the military department, and then to sending Wang Zhenyi under his anger.

As Wang Zhen said, the tripartite balance has been broken, and the situation has quietly changed. King Ping did not come for the government, but only took his mother back and left. But Du Wu is different, Du Wu has been feeding behind his back, quietly contacting the queen, and persuading the queen to cut off his back road.

The queen kept it a secret very tightly, and in the past few months, she has eliminated him one by one from the internal prison of Yanfu Palace, and she and Du Wu's plans in the past few months, he did not learn about it until these days. This is a dead end, he sent a line of privy envoys when the situation was uncertain, she may have hatred in her heart, but she still behaved well-behaved and docile, and then secretly surrendered to Du Wu, and against her husband, the emperor poisoned. She deceived him with the simplicity and dependence she had always shown, and made him think that she was still the obedient, weak, and still at the mercy of the little woman.

When she caught up with Du Wu, he still hasn't figured it out. But he had been unguarded from the beginning, and now that they had formed an alliance, it was too late to defend themselves. A queen who wants to be the queen mother hangs the curtain, and a prince who wants to regent the court, King Ping has retired, if Li Xuze dies, he will have no way out.

So he was finally willing to let go, but only because he could no longer control where the situation went.

He will still accompany the East Palace of the year to the position of the emperor, just for the original kindness. He also wants to see her happy, get married, have children, and have a final destination. As for the aftermath, he has been a eunuch for thousands of years, what if he hangs his head, and what if he is exposed to the city gate. Maybe he can laugh at himself when he is beyond the flesh, and the only thing he can't let go of is her sincerity and grief.

The carriage drove all the way into the Donghua Gate and walked inward, and a few eunuchs trotted over along the way and followed the carriage and jogged. Yu Yichen lifted the curtain and called someone over and asked, "Mei Fu, where is Your Majesty staying?" ”

Mei Fu ran and replied, "Vertical arch hall." ”

Yu Yichen asked again: "Are you awake?" ”

Mei Fu also shook his head: "No." ”

The emperor has been in a coma for three days for unknown reasons, and more than a dozen cabinet masters in the palace, as well as the queen mother and concubine, have checked it together, but finally asked him to find out that it was the queen's hand. As a result, he found out that the queen had already formed an alliance with Du Wu.

The queen was the niece of the privy envoy and the daughter of Wang Han, who went to the former Zhongshu Sect. Since entering the East Palace seven years ago, the sixteen-year-old young Ai has also become a young woman in Shaohua. She has always been a model of etiquette and etiquette, dignified and generous, noble and elegant, but there is a lack of taste. However, the queen of a country is a monarch of virtue rather than sex. When she was in the East Palace, the first emperor praised her several times, and now the queen mother has the authority of a palace, and everything depends on her.

In Yu Yichen's heart, until yesterday, she was still the innocent little daughter who was a little wooden when she first entered the East Palace, and when Li Xuze occasionally went to the bedroom of another concubine, she would lose her temper and hide in the palace and cry quietly. It was he who taught her how to be a princess, how to win the praise of Emperor Chengfeng, the favor of the queen and the sincerity of the prince. It was he who taught her how to run the harem. In the past seven years, he single-handedly put her on the throne and taught her to become a model of a woman in the world and a queen of a country.

When he was angry with the entire Wang family because of Zhenshu's anger at being humiliated, she was calm and indifferent, allowing him to let the Wang family fall, and then switched to Du Wu, cutting off his last retreat with Li Xuze.

"Mei Fu, you go to the Vertical Arch Hall and wait, and tell the ministers of the court that you only say that Your Majesty's Holy Body is slightly ill and cannot come to the court. Mei Xuan, you take someone to move His Majesty to the Funing Palace. After Yu Yichen finished ordering the morning court, he said to Mei Xun: "Go to Yanfu Palace." ”

Since the last time the queen gave birth, this is the first time he has gone back to Yanfu Palace. Everything has a beginning and an end, and he should ask her to understand.
