Chapter 90: Heart

King Qing is back.

This news did not attract too many people's attention, and some people didn't even remember who King Qing was for a while.

It's only been a year since I left, and everything has changed.

The light four-wheeled vehicle, which made a soft noise on the blue brick floor, broke the silence of the palace.

Only the princes can ride in the carriage in the palace, there are not many brothers of the emperor, and no one will come all year round, the last time this kind of carriage drove in the palace was at this time a year ago, when the king of the county took King Qing away.

In the carriage, the king of Jin'an County closed his eyes and listened to the sound of wheels and horses' hooves, and suddenly he opened his eyes and lifted the curtain to look out.

The attendants around were busy asking with concern.

The eyes of the king of Jin'an fell on the horses pulling the cart.

The crisp clicks and percussions come with a sense of rhythm.

"What's on the horseshoe?" He asked.

"Your Highness, it's a horseshoe." The chamberlain laughed.

"Horseshoe?" The king of Jin'an County read.

"Your Highness has been out for so long, I don't know what is new in the capital, this is a new thing made by the herdsmen, branded on the horse's hooves to protect the hooves, and now the war horses are used in this way, reducing a lot of losses, this name is given by His Majesty, and the horses in the palace are also used, and the sound is good." The chamberlain said with a smile.

Even the horses have changed, and this year has changed so much.

King Jin'an lowered the curtain.

The Queen Mother's palace was full of people, all of whom looked at the door with a little nervousness.

"The King of Jin'an has arrived." The sound of the chamberlain came from far and near the door.

The people in the room straightened up, the door was pushed open, and a tall, thin young man stepped in. The young man's slow pace quickened as he stepped into the palace.

"The Queen Mother."

He hurried forward, bowed his head, his voice trembling, as if choked.

The Queen Mother's tears immediately flowed. Stretched out his hand and shouted. The surrounding concubines wept one after another.

The king of Jin'an County bowed on the spot for a moment, then got up and knelt in front of the queen mother, and the queen mother pulled him to examine it carefully, and cried again.

"Look how thin you've become," she said.

The concubine wiped her tears on the side and pushed the eldest prince at the same time.

"Brother." The eldest prince stepped forward and shouted.

King Jin'an turned his head to look at him and nodded.

"Your Highness has grown taller." He said.

The other princesses were also busy, and for a while the children in the hall were lively, and the king of Jin'an said hello to his sisters one by one.

The Queen Mother pulled him out the door.

"King Qing, heβ€”" she asked.

The king of Jin'an County took two steps back.

"King Qing, he is tired of boating. I slept when I entered the palace, and I was sent back at this time. He said, leaning over to salute, "Niangniang, forgive the courtier for not waking him up, Niangniang, King Qing is no longer the sixth brother he used to be, and I hope Niangniang will not treat him as a normal person, and be more considerate." ”

These words made the Queen Mother burst into tears and covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

Those unfamiliar feelings that have arisen because of a year have come back in an instant.

In front of the palace. The Queen Mother strode away, and the concubine Niangniang and the King of Jin'an followed with a helpless expression. Behind them, the concubines wrapped in colorful cloaks followed, the eldest prince and princess were also among them, and even the youngest princess was held in Concubine Zhu's arms.

"Niangniang, don't go, it's such a cold day." The concubine whispered again.

"Yes, Niangniang, Sixth Brother, he can't sleep for long, he will wake up in a while, I will take him to meet Niangniang." King Jin'an said.

"According to normal speaking, the mourning family is the queen mother, he is the emperor's grandson, and it has always been the rule for him to come to see the mourning family, but didn't you say it, he is no longer the sixth brother of the past, and the mourning family does not regard him as the emperor's grandson." The Queen Mother choked up and said, without stopping, "The mourning family is uneasy to follow the rules, and the mourning family will go to see him." ”

The concubine wiped away her tears, and the king of Jin'an didn't say anything anymore, looking sad.

"It's sad for the mother." He whispered.

Isn't that what you want? The concubine wiped away her tears, and looked at the young man with a little hatred from the corner of her eyes.

Before he reached the gate of the palace, he saw two chamberlains running out as if they were flying.

"Your Highness is awake, Your Highness is awake." They shouted, panicked, as if they had seen something terrible.

Is it disgusting King Qing?

King Qing is no longer a normal child, are these people disgusted with this abnormal child?

The Queen Mother was furious.

"Palm!" She shouted, "What a cheap dog thing, it is also worthy of serving King Qing!" ”

The attendants were so frightened that they knelt down and bowed, and the king of Jin'an County hurriedly came forward to explain.

"Niangniang, they don't mean that, the sixth brother has been with me for a long time, and he will be scared when he sees the living." He said as he walked inward quickly, "Please forgive me, I'll go first and have a look." ”

Without waiting for the Queen Mother to answer, the people had already walked towards the palace, and finally ran.

Looking at the hurried figure of the young man, the Queen Mother had a sour nose again, sighed heavily, and raised her feet to follow.

Strange shouts rang out from time to time in the palace, dry and sharp, high and low.

The two princesses couldn't help but squeeze back, looking a little scared.

Although the eldest prince was still standing steadily, the hand hanging down his sleeve was already clenched.

And all the people stood in the temple, looking at the curtain that had been pulled up, and saw the children lying on the couch within.

A year ago, the kid left the palace not long after the accident, and everyone didn't have a chance to see what he was injured, and at that time, no matter what the injury was, they were mentally prepared, but after a year, they all forgot that the child was injured, but only remembered what the former second prince was like.

A red fluttering face, a big smile, sparkling eyes, and a playful and cute jump.

But at this time, looking at the children on the couch, everyone seemed to be dreaming.

Who is that child? Could it be that the child is the former second prince?

They can't say it's a child anymore, they've never seen a child so ugly or scary.

A fat ball, waving his arms, screaming at his neck, snot and saliva kept staying, and he seemed to find a lot of people here, so he turned his head. A big roll of the eyes rolled.

Wow. A princess couldn't stand the fright and cried out. Duck back.

"Get out!"

The Queen Mother shouted angrily.

The concubine took the princess and knelt down.

"Admit your mistakes quickly, admit your mistakes quickly." She said in a trembling voice, and kowtowed to the princess desperately.

The princess was stunned twice in succession, but she just cried with a white face.

"Don't you understand? Get out. The Queen Mother shouted again.

The concubine waved her hand at the concubine, and the concubine wiped away her tears and lowered her head and pulled the princess out hurriedly.

"Let those who are afraid go out as well." The Queen Mother said slowly, and her gloomy face swept over the concubines and princesses behind her.

No one is stupid enough to do that.

"What did the mother say, how could she be afraid. That's the sixth brother, the sixth brother we watched grow up. Concubine Zhu wiped away her tears and said, while holding the little princess in her arms, she stepped forward, "Shuning, look, that's your brother, that's also your brother, call brother." ”

Where can the one-week-old little princess shout, she is also ignorant and ignorant, but she doesn't know how to be afraid. Babbling and waving his hands.

This was enough to make the Queen Mother happy, and her complexion improved. Turning his head to look inward again.

The child was still half-sitting, raising his hands high and shouting, the king of Jin'an took down his hand, put a smock on him, and half-knelt down to tie the belt, not knowing what to whisper, raised his head and smiled at the child.

Dressing, putting on shoes, wiping his face with the handkerchief, feeding water, he always came alone, and the attendant next to him seemed redundant and messy.

This kind of proficiency can only be achieved through long-term personal service.

The Queen Mother's nose was sore, and she looked at the young man who fed the child a few mouthfuls of water, and reached out to caress the child's face with a smile.

β€œβ€¦ The sixth brother is really well-behaved. He said, bowing his head and touching the child.

"Sixth brother is amazing!"

The heads of the big and the small in the palace touched together, and the little children giggled and grabbed the big arms.

"Brother, brother, still play, still play."

The Queen Mother couldn't help but step forward with a little joy, her steps shattered the illusion, and the child's crisp laughter disappeared, replaced by meaningless humming.

Her sixth brother will never come back.

The Queen Mother stretched out her hand to hide her face and choked, and the concubines behind her choked again.

The eldest prince looked wooden, he saw the eyes of the concubine, he knew that he should cry with him at this time, but he couldn't cry.

He looked at the stupid child, not afraid, only surprised.

Who's this? This is by no means the sixth brother, this is not the younger brother who is more beautiful than him, smarter than him, and more liked by his father.

That younger brother of his, who is gone, will never come back.

But isn't that good, his gaze swept over everyone in the room, everyone was sad and caring.

It's good, everyone still loves him and will protect him, he can do whatever he wants, how good.

He must be so happy, otherwise how could he be so happy with a grin.

A smile gradually appeared on the corner of the eldest prince's mouth.

That's how good, this is the best.

It was already evening when the king of Jin'an saw the emperor.

"How's the doctor looking?" The Emperor asked.

King Jin'an shook his head.

"Actually, after that, I didn't look for it anymore." He said, raising his head and smiling at the emperor, as he picked up a scroll from the side and held it over, "This is a gift for Your Majesty." ”

The Emperor laughed a little.

"It seems that I really didn't look for it again, and I'm still in the mood to bring me a gift." He said.

The chamberlain next to him took it and unfolded it, and the emperor's expression was slightly stunned.

β€œβ€¦ I didn't know where to go with my sixth brother, I sat on the mountain for a long time that day, and saw the sunrise, the sea of clouds churning, and the glow scattered, it was really magnificent, I thought that the sixth brother likes to look at the map, and His Majesty also likes to see, but His Majesty has not seen the real beauty of the mountains and rivers with his own eyes, so I simply took the sixth brother to walk through the mountains and rivers. ”

The voice of the King of Jin'an continued.

"This is my own painting, and I didn't look for local famous artists, I want to paint are all feelings and guilt, if those famous artists come to paint, they are all in their eyes, I want to paint the mountains and rivers in my own eyes, it is my own feelings, I want to see these majestic mountains and rivers, I want to bring it to Your Majesty to see..."

The emperor looked at the scroll unfolding in front of him, on which the ink outline, or the mountains, or the water, or the mountains and mountains, or the murmuring and clear streams, the chapter is not good, the brush is also immature, but it is extraordinarily vivid, with the unfolding, he seems to have personally stood in front of these landscapes.

It is said that this is his world, but he has never seen his world, what he can see is the world of the Imperial Palace in the capital, and a little farther away is the streets and alleys outside the palace during the sacrifice.

This is his world, but he is imprisoned in this small imperial city, which is really ridiculous and sad to think about.

He also wants to see his own world, but let alone implement it, even if the idea of raising this idea is known by the courtiers, he can make noise and accuse him as if he is about to lose the country.

Son of Heaven, Son of Heaven, the one who seems to have the most but nothing in the world is the Son of Heaven.

The emperor looked at the king of Jin'an County, and after not seeing him for a year, a little blush appeared on his face, which was more sick and emaciated, and his eyes were a little more radiant.

"You've got a heart." He nodded. (To be continued......)
