Chapter 70: The Man He Loves the Most
The prince's control of the Ning Palace's palace was surprisingly smooth, and the entire handover process was hardly hindered, as if those people had been prepared, and the uneasiness in Huangfu's cold heart was finally confirmed when Luo Ziqi told him with a heavy face that he had not found the heirloom seal.
No matter how big the rift is between their father and son, the palace incident still makes Huangfu a little cold and doesn't know how to face Huangfujing. But the national seal is very important, and he has to go to his father to ask for it.
"Was the queen captured, or killed?" Huangfu Jing asked his son a little powerlessly. The disease had already weakened this once bloody battle-hardened general, and the struggle between his son and wife had undoubtedly aggravated his condition.
Huangfu Yehan had never seen his father so haggard, even if he hated Yuan Tianguo and hated his father even more, but when he saw him haggard as if he was going to leave him in the next moment, he still felt heartache. "Her sins are naturally judged by others, although I have a blood feud with her, but for her to take the lead in breaking the law, my son thinks it is not worth it!"
"You're sarcastic about me." Huangfu Jing barely supported his body and looked at his son with a smile. Huangfu was extremely cold at night, don't look at him.
Huangfu Jing suddenly coughed violently, and Huangfu couldn't help himself from stepping forward to help him. Huangfu coughed for a while before slowly stopping: "I know, you look down on me, although you have never said it, but you have been expressing your dissatisfaction with your actions." I only favor the Yuan family, and you prefer to spoil every concubine, even if you don't like them; I connived at the Yuan clan's persecution of the Six Palaces and disregarded the law and discipline, you wanted to kill Yuan Tianguo immediately, but you still restrained yourself and handed her over to Tingwei and dealt with according to the law. Are you happy to suppress yourself so much to sarcastically mock your father? ”
He was not happy! But he held his breath in his heart, and he couldn't tell his father directly about that breath, which was becoming more and more rusty, so he could only tell his father with his actions that he hated him and hated all his mistakes, and he would have proved to his father with his life's actions that he could have done better.
"When you were a child, you were very attached to me, and you always worshiped me as a great hero, no matter what I said or did, you always thought I was right, and I also enjoyed the worship of my son, and tried to make more achievements, to prove to you that you have a great father. That time was my happiest day, but in that happiness, I always felt an indescribable shortcoming, and always felt that there seemed to be something missing in my life. I have a virtuous wife and a lovely son, and I don't know what I lack, until one year I swung my army to the north, passed by the Baixi River, and picked up a kite that fell into the water, it was just an ordinary kite, but the words written on the kite had a heroic spirit that did not lose to men. ”
Huangfu Jing seemed to have returned to his youth, and his eyes, which had been dimmed by illness, also shone brightly because of the memories of his youth: "I have been thinking about what kind of woman can have such a straightforward spirit, if I see it, I must get to know it well." Later, when I returned to Ning Palace, I happened to meet King Hua for a birthday, and I was invited to go, and I met the person flying a kite in King Hua's Palace......"
"I'm not interested in hearing how you met, if you're saying this for the sake of telling a story!" The emperor interrupted him coldly at night, their acquaintance had caused him and his mother a lifetime of pain, how could he think that he would want to hear him tell about the romantic prelude to those bloody persecutions?
"I don't say this to let you know why I don't even want the country for her, but I want to tell you that your father is not as iron as you think, he doesn't need anything but greatness, he is also a person of flesh and blood and weaknesses, and he also has a threshold that he can't cross in his life. You have admired me excessively since I was a child, and I always want to be a big hero like me when I grow up, but the more I worship, the more it hurts you after I make mistakes, and I personally ruined your dreams and your world, and I know all of this. But now, my time is short, it's too late to make amends, my mistakes can't be changed, but I don't want you to continue to torture yourself because of my mistakes, and deliberately do things you don't want to do to punish me! ”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Huangfu Yehan said a little angrily, "I have my own principles of doing things, do you think everything I do is to hurt you?" You are wrong, everything I do is for the future of Ningguo, not for you! Don't tear away from the topic, Ning Guo has been half ruined by you and Yuan Tianguo, I don't want the remaining half to be destroyed in your hands again, where is the seal of the country! ”
Huangfu Jing had expected this, he was exhausted for a while, his eyes were dark, and Huangfu couldn't care about any disputes at night, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support him, and when he saw that he had improved slightly, he pretended to be indifferent and said: "But I haven't seen you for a month, how can you suddenly become ill like this?" ”
Huangfu Jing's illness has actually been suffering for two years, but the situation in Ningguo has not been decided, and he has been struggling to prevent anyone from knowing, and now that he is terminally ill, he can't hide it. Huangfu Jing reluctantly cheered up and said: "People always have to die, I'm just a little earlier than you think, and you don't have to be sad." I know that you are here to pass on the national seal, and the national seal is indeed here, and no one can find it except me. ”
"What do you want to do?" Huangfu looked at his father with resentment at night, did he still want to gamble with him on the future of Ning Guo at such a time?
"I don't want to do anything, I just want to ask you to spare the queen, the main culprit of all her crimes lies with me, and now I am dying, I hope that my death will atone for all her sins, please spare her!"
"You're threatening me?" Huangfu laughed out loud at night, at this time, he was still threatening his son with the future of the Ning Kingdom, and all this was just for the femme fatale who plagued the country?
"If I really want to threaten you, do you think the armies you have at your disposal will be my opponents? I could have broken your spirit, if I didn't have a chance of beating you, but I didn't do that, did I? I am the monarch of Ningguo, you are the prince of Ningguo, you don't want the war between our father and son to affect the people, can I bear it? ”
Huangfu frowned at night, no wonder his control of the palace would be so smooth, it turned out that it was all arranged by his father in advance, and he had long planned to hand over the position of King Ning to him at this opportunity.
Huangfu Jing saw that his son's attitude was soft and threw out a bomb: "Qingguo has just become pregnant, and Yesheng is still young, can you bear to watch your two siblings lose their mothers since they were children?" ”
