Chapter 168: Yu Ge (5)
"Oh, this is Yu Ge's child, Yu Ge went back to give birth, but he died in childbirth, and only sent the child back."
Li Jing stood there in a daze as if he had encountered a thunderbolt from the sky.
"Dead?" Asked incredulously.
The prince nodded expressionlessly, "I heard that the body was cremated, I don't know what it is, when she died, she always said that her body was not clean, and it burned a hundred times." ”
Li Jing stood there as if he was petrified, his eyes were full of desolation, and the prince didn't say anything, he didn't ask him why he was so weird, he knew it in his heart.
After a while, Li Jing stepped forward in a daze and looked at the child in the prince's arms, "Let me hug it?" ”
The prince looked up, a hint of hasty and quick disguise flashed in Li Jing's eyes, the prince stood up, beckoned the servants outside, and handed over the child.
"The crown princess has nothing to do all day, let her learn to take care of the children."
"Yes." The servant hurried away.
Li Jing stood there with a very bad face, and the prince explained lightly, "My father is busy with official business, and he is old again, I am afraid that this child will tire his father, and when the son and the princess have a child, the father can make fun of his grandson, the child of a courtesan, forget it." ”
He didn't even give this opportunity, he didn't even have a chance to hug the child.
Listening to the prince's tone, he clearly knew the truth.
He doesn't have a trace of anything related to Yu Ge, the only bloodline has become the prince's bargaining chip, the prince is the most shrewd one, and the country in his hands is not as good as the child in the prince's hand, if it is really rumored that it is his child, he will lose face, and the world will be unhappy for the prince, he has lost not only the country, but also the face he has covered up for decades.
In this game, he lost to the prince and Yu Ge.
Li Jing is at a loss, he wants to settle things and calm people, and rewards the prince everywhere, but the prince does not appreciate it, contrary to the normal state of being gentle and unsubmissive in politics, he is sharp and relative everywhere, whether it is right or wrong, if Li Jing agrees first, he will definitely come out to refute and be speechless, and then Li Jing will implement it according to his strategy.
The child grew bigger and bigger, and the prince took him in as a personal servant, and often took him to the palace to go around.
The crown princess understands in her heart, but she doesn't say it, in the face of the increasingly gentle prince, she has poured too much effort, she can occasionally realize that the prince sometimes looks at her when he is stunned, and she doesn't know where this sadness comes from, and she doesn't want to know it.
The crown princess is a smart person, she only sees what she should see, she only knows what she should know, and she only cares about what she can touch.
So no matter how much the people in the house outside spread it, and how guilty the prince looked at her, she would only meekly wash her hands and make soup, and add fragrance to her red sleeves.
About a year has passed, a year has passed, enough to make people forget something, and enough to make people regroup and start over.
Facing the increasingly obvious two factions in the court, Li Yu was very aware of the current affairs and retreated, leaving the battlefield without gunpowder to the prince and his father.
Li Jing was obviously beaten by the prince's serial schemes, and when he hesitated in the world of song and couldn't extricate himself, Li Yu specially sent a person named Ning Ge.
Her real name is not Ning Ge, when Li Yu saw dancing with ribbons in clothes among the traffickers, he seemed to see Yu Ge alive, he still bought it resolutely, and did not ask her true surname, only heard the traffickers call her Ning's family, so he named her, Ning Ge.
Ning Ge's dancing was good, Li Yu found someone to teach her, he personally supervised her, her smile, every movement and look, he made her imitate Yu Ge vividly.
Ning Ge just thought that she had met a nobleman, the son in front of her was rich and romantic, knowledgeable, and extraordinary, so she was naturally willing to serve him wholeheartedly, as long as she could help her find her sister in the future.
Every time she practiced dancing, Li Yu would definitely be there, and everyone only knew that the sixth master of Lu Dao had fallen in love with a dancing girl and couldn't extricate himself, but no one had ever seen the true appearance of this dancing girl.
She is similar to Yu Ge's nine points, the only difference is that Yu Ge is extremely supple, which can be described as soft and strong, and she is extremely lively, which is the sunshine sprinkled into the world.
She danced happily, played the piano happily, and thought that she had reached heaven on earth, sometimes Li Yu looked at her without guilt, but compared to his great cause, compared to his emperor, nothing mattered.
When Li Yu loosened a green bamboo piano for her, she couldn't put it down, the piano was specially made for her by Li Yu, and he personally cut down the lush green bamboo.
She accepted it with joy, and Li Yu asked her to practice only one piece on this piano, which was Ling Bo Weibu.
Six months later, Li Jing fell seriously ill, and most of the affairs of the court fell on the crown prince, which can be said to be expected.
At this moment, Li Yu brought the ignorant Ning Ge to Li Jing.
Li Jing was blindfolded on the sickbed, thinking that he was dazzled, looking at her who was plucking the cuizhuqin not far away, he stood up and took her hand, hugged her into his arms, and called Yu Ge.
Ning Ge thought that it was his parents who he was going to take her to, not the emperor, although he had long known that they were the same person, but their identities were different, when he took him away, there was even a hint of joy, was she going to fly on the branches as a phoenix?
At that time, Yu Ge really realized that her life was really over.
Li Yu stood aside, smiling faintly, there was nothing in his eyes, in Ning Ge's opinion, it was a cold pool, he helped Li Jing to the bed and comforted him, and turned to look at Yu Ge, who was still surprised.
He said: "All the reasons why I saved you are for my father, and the person he likes looks the same as you, and he can dance and sing." ”
To put it so bluntly, Ning Ge didn't even have time to react and digest, which meant that she would lose her freedom and get everything that others could not reach, and all this was just because she had a face that was exactly the same as others.
"You stay in the palace, you will have all the glory and wealth you want, as long as you are obedient and obedient, you will rush to the harem, and you will be alone in the world."
After saying that, without giving her any room for refusal, she turned and left.
Silently watching his departing back, he took something with him, she didn't have time to breathe, she didn't have time to think.
It was the most memorable day of her life.
Lying on the bed is the true dragon emperor, and glory and wealth are at your fingertips.
With him here, of course she can rush to the harem, because he brought her in.
But is it really important to be rich and prosperous?
He didn't say it wrong, it was too important, she was afraid of being sold around, she thought that she would get everything she wanted by following Li Yu, even if she was small, her face would be bright.
But he didn't, he sold her to his father, he knew that she was not used to a hard life, he knew that she was afraid of poverty, so he sent her to the attention of all people.
He didn't give her a chance to hesitate, because children from poor families have the capital to hesitate.
Ning Ge gritted his teeth, stripped off all his clothes, and slowly walked to the bed......
She told herself that it was not a bottomless abyss, it was a branch of the phoenix, she didn't have to be criticized, she was free to get everything she wanted, she didn't have to go to great lengths to steal and rob, she could find her sister and let her have no worries about food and clothing......
Li Jing expected something in his sleep, and his condition was well the next day, and when he saw the person lying next to him, his cheeks still had a little tear stains in his sleep, and he looked at it a few more times in disbelief, "Yu Ge? ”
Ning Ge heard someone call her, and slowly opened her eyes, she hadn't actually fallen asleep, she had been waiting, waiting for his reaction after waking up.
Li Yu only told her that he would be rich and carefree, but he didn't tell her if he would like him.
She really looked at the Son of Heaven above tens of thousands of people, Li Jing frowned, he was puzzled, he looked at her eyes, and he could recognize it at a glance, it was not Yu Ge.
"Who are you?"
"Ning'er."
She didn't want to call herself Ning Ge, it wasn't her name, from his mouth, from Li Yu's mouth, when she heard Yu Ge's name, she hated this name very much, even if it was a word.
Li Jing smiled, gentle and kind, "Are you afraid?" ”
She nodded.
Li Jing smiled even more heartily, I don't know what the reason is, compared with Yu Ge's cold arrogance, he prefers the woman in front of him who is really lying next to him, even if he knows that she is a stand-in.
But so what, what he owes Yu Ge, he will give it to Ning'er, and he will give her all the favor that Yu Ge has not received.
Since then, Li Jing's health has been very good, and he has regained his rights from the prince step by step.
It is known that the emperor has a new favorite, and there is a mysterious woman by his side, who sinks into the posture of a fish and a goose, and is promoted to a concubine after serving a pet overnight.
The harem was afraid to avoid it, not because of how fierce Concubine Ning was, but because there was once a concubine who couldn't look past it, and scolded a few words behind her back, and was told by the emperor and cut off her tongue.
The queen is a good match, she naturally knows how to stabilize her position, but when she knows that this woman was sent by Li Yu, she is unusually for this little son who has been doted on since he was a child.
During the family banquet, she often forgot to call him, and only called the prince, and some of the good things that she was familiar with were all given to the prince, as if her biological son was only one prince, and Li Yu was redundant.
For a while, Li Yu, who was favored for a while, knew that he had fallen out of favor in the palace.
It's not as good as a prince with an ordinary concubine.
But so what, the queen is only the master of the harem, and the emperor is the king of a country.
As long as he coaxed the emperor to be happy, what was not at his fingertips, and he sent Ning Ge to him, which was already the best explanation.
After many persuasions to participate in political affairs, he was politely refused, and he wanted this son to get everything he had more than the prince.
When the prince saw Ning Ge for the first time, Ning Ge was sitting by the pond feeding the fish, and under the big sun, he pouted angrily and said to the people around him why the ground was so hot.
I was really spoiled by Li Jing.
Within a few days, there was news of rebuilding the imperial garden, the three-month project was completed in half a month, and when I went again, the ground of the imperial garden was paved with colorful bricks and stones, and there was a layer of water with a finger thick on it, and the water source was the hot spring behind the rockery, saying that Concubine Ning liked it.
He smiled faintly, he could no longer get Yu Ge, Yu Ge would only live in the world of his own person, no matter how much his concubine was like Yu Ge, it just showed that he couldn't get it.
Emperor E is still three points alike, and this Concubine Ning, no matter how similar she is, is still very different from Yu Ge's gender.
But sometimes they are very envious, if Yu Ge is here, will they be so happy.
Li Yu has been silent, occasionally running to Emperor E, he knew that it was Concubine Ning sent by Li Yu, he was angry and had a sense of betrayal, he touched his whereabouts, ran to Emperor E's workshop, and wanted to arrest her, in order to threaten Emperor E, but in fact, he wanted to get close to her, although he knew that this was wrong.
