"Your Majesty, the concubine wants to tell you a story."
When Chu Xue, who was sitting next to him, said this, Song Chen suddenly faintly expected something.
It would be nice if we could get the truth tonight.
He withdrew his hand that was lifting her chin, trying to slow his voice, and said, "Say it." ”
Tell me everything you know, and don't hide it anymore.
She got up from the bed, knelt down in front of him, and began to slowly reminisce about the past.
"Many years ago, in Weizhou City, there lived a family of four, oh no, a family of five, because that lady had a five-month-old fetus in her belly. The little girl had a father and mother, and an older brother, her father was a valiant general who repeatedly went to the northwest to repel the invasion of the Huns on the border, and won many victories for the emperor of Daqi. ”
"That year, it was almost the Dragon Boat Festival, and it was very hot in Weizhou City, because my mother was most afraid of heat when she was pregnant, so my father took the family to a place called Yingyue Villa on the outskirts of the city for vacation. One evening, the little girl went out with her family and stayed in the town for just over an hour, and when she returned, her family was gone......
She choked suddenly, the man lowered his eyes, only to see a teardrop falling to the ground and shattering, habitually trying to reach out to comfort, but there was a fire in his chest that did not come out of nowhere, so he couldn't stretch it out.
Chu Xue, who was kneeling in front of him, didn't notice his struggle at all, and was still telling the story.
She hid in the bushes on the side of the road, heard the death of her father and brother, heard the screams and cries of the people in the family, and heard her mother's ...... Die in front of yourself......"
It hurt too much in her heart, so she paused and relieved for a while before continuing: "Later, she was sent to her uncle's house in the capital and escaped for the time being. In order to save her, the uncle and aunt endured severe pain and buried the little cousin in the uninhabited mountain, giving her a new identity and allowing her to survive. ”
"Later, she was pampered and raised in her uncle's house, and when she was sixteen years old, one day, a guest came to the house, and after meeting her, he took pity on her, married her home, and gave her a love that she did not dare to hope for in this life......"
The stories he didn't know had been told, and she calmed down for a while before she raised her head to look at him again, "Your Majesty, you have already guessed it, I am that little girl, I am Yue Lan's daughter, and the only child left in the world by the Yue family." ”
She leaned down, kowtowed to him, and said solemnly: "My father is innocent, he has never been disloyal to the first emperor and Daqi, if the past is really ironclad, why not be afraid of retrial?" The guilty concubine dared to ask the emperor, you are the son of the Holy Tomorrow, please retry the old case and give my father justice. ”
When he finished speaking, there was silence in the curtain that fell.
She didn't dare to look up at him, for fear of seeing his angry face, how could he not be angry? After being cheated on by a loved one for so long, who wouldn't be angry? She just looked down at the ground, waiting for him to lash out.
Unexpectedly, after a period of silence, I heard him say, "So you are not Chu Xue, you are Yue Wen." "Full of powerlessness, revealing a kind of helpless exhaustion.
She just wanted to nod, but suddenly realized that she didn't say her name just now, how could he know that the girl from the Yue family was called Yue Wen?
She looked up at him suddenly, trying to ask him for a solution, but saw that there was no surprise in his eyes, but a ...... Sadness.
Did he know about it?
"Your Majesty?" She was amazed.
"Why did you keep hiding it from me?" He only asked in a deep voice.
"Because, because my father was accused of a crime, the Yue family has been wiped out, and Yue Wen should not live in this world." Tears welled up in her face again.
"Then why don't you keep it hidden, and now you have to say it again?" He frowned, still unable to see his anger or joy.
She smiled bitterly, "Because the concubine doesn't want to let go of the opportunity to be able to show snow for her father, the concubine believes and believes that the emperor ......."
"I believe I love you and will avenge you, won't I?" He leaned down to her, his hand holding her chin again, "Cher, if it weren't for tonight, would you have been hiding it from me?" ”
"The concubine doesn't know," she closed her eyes, tears rolled into his palm, "The concubine really doesn't know, the concubine doesn't want to hide anything from the emperor, the husband and wife should trust each other, but the concubine is really afraid, afraid that she will lose the emperor." ”
Her tears dripped down one after another, as if they were about to flow into a river, drowning his palms.
"Then why aren't you afraid now? If you tell this story for revenge, aren't you afraid that you will lose me? Revenge is more important to you than me, isn't it? He asked so painfully.
She shook her head desperately, "No, no," she knelt forward again and hugged his legs, crying: "The concubine doesn't want to lose the emperor, no one has ever been more important than the emperor, but...... However, as the child of her father and mother, and the orphan of the Yue family, if she does not clear her father's name, but lives her rich life with peace of mind, can she still be regarded as a human being? The concubines have wanted to tell the emperor the truth more than once, but because there is no evidence, they are afraid that the emperor will not believe it, and they are afraid that they will be rejected by the emperor......"
Finally, he couldn't bear to see her cry like this, he sighed deeply, wiped away her tears, and said, "If I really retry this case for you and avenge your father's name, have you ever thought about what you should do?" ”
The corners of her lips curled with bitterness, she choked up, and said: "The concubine deceived the emperor, and she didn't dare to ask the emperor for forgiveness, but only asked the emperor to remember that the concubine's father and brother had been loyal to the court for many years, and spared the Chu family, after all, it is the most basic human nature for the father to take in a young child." The concubine knows that you are a good father, Le'er, Xuan'er and An An, although they were born to the concubine, and the emperor's blood is also flowed on their bodies, the concubine believes that you will not be angry with them......"
After explaining to others, she kowtowed to him again, "The concubine knows that she has committed a serious crime of bullying the king, and she doesn't dare to ask the emperor for forgiveness, no matter how you surrender, the concubine has no complaints." ”
She seemed to have prepared for the worst, but this made his heart ache and anger even more, and he asked angrily, "No matter how I condemn my crimes?" How will you cure your sins? You're not afraid of death, are you? Have you ever wondered what I'm going to do in the future? What should Le'er do with their three children? If you want to hide it, why not hide it for the rest of your life? How do you know that I won't be for Yue Lan Zhaoxue? ”
The voice had become uncontrollably higher, he was angry with her for the first time, and it was still so angry, she knew that it was her own fault, and she didn't dare to refute anything, just blindly cried.
He didn't want to see her sad, but for the time being he couldn't suppress the fire in his heart that was born from the deception and distrust, so he got up suddenly, pushed open the door of the temple and walked out.
"The Emperor's ......"
The moment he stepped out of the temple door, he heard her sad cry, and his heart ached, but he still did not look back.
He's gone.
Nuoda's dormitory was empty, and there was still his body temperature and fragrance on the bedding, and she wanted to beg him to stay just now, but for what reason, she had done something wrong, and she said it herself, and she didn't dare to ask for her forgiveness.
Yanling, who had been waiting outside the hall in fright, walked in, and when she saw the scene in the palace, she was taken aback and was busy helping her, she hugged Yanling's shoulders and cried out loud.
~~
The four watchmen rang, and Song Chen was lying on his own dragon bed in the Qinzheng Palace, still not sleepy.
Until today, her identity was finally determined, at the beginning, he thought that whether she was Chu Xue or Yue Wen, she was his own woman, he would be as pampered as before, he didn't care, but when he heard her own ears admit that she was really Yue Wen, he still had anger in his heart, most of the reasons for this were not because of her deception, but because he didn't trust her, because he felt that she didn't believe that she would protect her, so he kept guarding himself?
This is a kind of frustration as her husband, who wants to protect her, but is not trusted by her, which is seen from her extraordinary excitement in the banquet tonight, and he has a vague premonition that she is really Yue Wen.
If she is Chu Xue, her background is simple, and she has no secrets to confess to herself, but she is the little girl Yue Wen who escaped death, after so many years, why didn't she tell herself the truth, she thought she would ask her for the crime of bullying the king? Treat her with sincerity, she actually guards herself!
But on second thought, why didn't she guard herself?
Thinking of the experience she cried and told herself tonight, she watched her relatives die in front of her, fled from Weizhou to the capital, and lived as someone else for so many years...... Thinking of her helpless appearance with tears in her eyes, he felt that when the anger of not being trusted subsided, he still felt so sorry for her.
Just imagine, if she hadn't escaped back then, where would she have found such a person in her life?
That's it!
The king sighed, sat up from the couch, rubbed his forehead, got up, and went to the imperial study.
~~
Early in the morning of the second day, Chu Xue, who had been sleepless and listless all night, was sitting in front of the mirror, combing her hair by Yanling, when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside the door, but it was Qiu Yan.
Qiu Yan's face couldn't hide his excitement, as if he had something urgent to say, Chu Xue hurriedly took away the idle people and others, closed the door of the palace, and saw Qiu Yan kneeling down and kowtowing to himself three times.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" Chu Xue was puzzled.
"Congratulations to Niangniang, the emperor just issued a holy decree in the court, let the three divisions take over, and retry the general's case!"
The ivory comb fell to the ground, and Chu Xueyan Ling glanced at each other, all of them were indescribably joyful.
"Congratulations, master!" Yanling and Ruyue knelt on the ground together and kowtowed to her to say hello.
The tears that had stopped in the morning fell again, and she didn't know whether she was laughing or crying. This day has finally come, she has been waiting for so many years, this day has finally come!
"Mother, mother!"
Hearing Le'er calling her outside the door, she hurriedly wiped her tears, and ordered the three kneeling people on the ground to get up and open the door to welcome the child.
When the little girl entered the door, she saw that her mother's eyes were red, and asked strangely, "Queen Mother, what's wrong with you?" Why are your eyes so red? ”
She laughed, but she still had a thick nasal voice, and said softly: "The queen mother came back late last night and didn't sleep well, so her eyes are red." Did Le'er sleep well last night? ”
"Well," the little girl nodded and said with a smile, "Erchen slept well." ”
She kissed her daughter's beautiful face, "Go and see if your younger siblings are up, and ask them to come over and have breakfast together, okay?" ”
"Good!" The little girl nodded and hurried to find her younger siblings.
Looking at her daughter's back, Chu Xue remembered one more thing, and hurriedly asked Qiu Yan, "Has the emperor dealt with the Chu family and the Qin family?" ”
"No," Qiu Yan hurriedly relieved her, "Niangniang, don't worry, the emperor only ordered to punish Taishi and Anxi for a year, and there is no other punishment." ”
Only then did she feel relieved. A year's salary is just a symbolic punishment, it is nothing to a powerful family like Qin Chu, her father and Uncle Qin Mu are fine, she can rest assured.
What about yourself? A voice in my heart asked.
Herself?
Things have come to this point, everything she wants has been realized, and she can say what she wants herself.
The children laughed and walked in to greet her, and she kissed them one by one, led the three sisters and brothers, and went to dinner together.
From morning to night, seeing the second watch bang, the king put down his pen and looked up at the window, only then did he realize that it was late at night.
The king got up, Liangxi hurriedly stepped forward, and wanted to ask the king if he would go to Yufu Palace, and he was a little nervous, and the king came out of Yufu Palace in the middle of the night last night, and he saw that he was angry, and he didn't know if he was angry with the beauty, so he made Liangxi considerate, and he didn't dare to speak.
Liangxi was worried when he suddenly heard the king's faint command," 166 Reading Network
