Chapter 525: Candle Night in the Cave Room
Emperor Yan Wei came to the dragon chariot with the cuckoo in his arms and put her on the seat.
The cuckoo had woken up and looked at him in a daze.
There was no resentment in the eyes, no sadness, very strange.
This gaze made Emperor Yan Wei a little flustered and distressed.
He held her arms, and whispered with some helplessness and difficulty: "Juan'er, don't do this! Isn't there still Lin Chun, with him with you, it will be fine soon. Well, this matter passed quickly. ”
The cuckoo was silent, but looked behind him.
There, Huang Li cried bitterly while following Qin Yi.
She wanted to ask Emperor Yanwei if even Huang Li was going to be killed.
But she didn't ask after all, not because she didn't care about Huang Li, but because she didn't want to talk to him anymore; And she thought that he might not be able to kill Huang Li, otherwise Huang Li would not have stopped Qin Yi from committing suicide just now; And through this incident, she also recognized a reality: if he had to kill Huang Li, she couldn't stop it, just like Huang Yuan.
So, she didn't say anything and didn't want to say anything.
Her heart was filled with a thick sadness, and she was overwhelmed.
She lowered her eyelids and leaned back in her seat wearily.
Seeing this, Emperor Yanwei was uncomfortable, and stood quietly in front of Long Yuan, frowning at her.
Lin Chun and all the eunuchs were waiting on the side, not daring to disturb their father and daughter.
After a while, Emperor Yanwei turned around, regained the majesty of the emperor, and ordered Lin Chun in a deep voice: "Haosheng sends the princess back to the East Palace." You personally welcome your relatives to the princess's mansion. ”
Lin Chun bowed and responded: "Weichen obeys!" ”
At this time, Ling Yin and Ling Yan also came closer, and left with a group of dragon guards surrounded by Long Yuan.
Emperor Yanwei watched Long Yuan go away, and stood silent for a while. Only then did he turn around and walk towards the Qianyang Palace.
The cuckoo returned to the East Palace and got into the sedan chair at five o'clock in the afternoon. She left the palace and started a new life.
The only brothers who sent their relatives were Qin Yan and Qin Yu. and Qin Xu, the son of Prince Yong, Huang Yuan is naturally not there, not even Xiaoshun.
The honor guard of the princess's marriage was gorgeous and luxurious, and in addition to this, two thousand dragon guards were added to escort it, adding more majesty and slaughter in addition to the joy and joy.
In order to prevent Prince Shun's rebellion from affecting the celebration of the princess's marriage, the capital did not impose martial law, nor did it prohibit the people along the way from watching the welcoming procession. In order to prevent the remnants of the rebel party from taking the opportunity to stir up trouble, the emperor sent heavy troops to protect the princess's sedan chair layer by layer. There are also countless tiger guards disguised and scattered in the crowd to guard.
There was all the hustle and bustle outside, and the cuckoo sitting in the sedan chair seemed to be unheard.
She still can't believe that Huang Yuan was killed.
She didn't expect that it was her biological father who made her the first to see the cruelty of imperial power. In the past, because she had no scruples, let go of her resistance, and escaped repeatedly, she didn't feel too cruel.
Out of the imperial city, came to Chang'an Avenue. Listening to the laughter of people on the street, she secretly swore to herself: In this life and this life, she will never set foot in this imperial city again!
Lin Chun rode a horse and walked in front of the sedan chair. With a smile on his face.
"Sure enough, there is no such thing as perfection." He thought to himself.
Today, he was in the limelight, but he was not happy as expected, but was thinking. How he was going to comfort his new wife on the night of candles in the cave room. For the sake of her former lover.
What could be more depressing?
The princess's mansion had already sent heavy troops, so it was not affected by the rebellion outside in the slightest. As soon as the sedan chair entered the palace gate, the cheerful drum music and fireworks were heard one after another, and there was a jubilant scene.
After Lin Chun shot the sedan door, he led the cuckoo to the main hall.
Presiding over the worship hall was Prince Yong and the Imperial Order.
When worshipping his parents, he did not bow to the Lin family, but in the direction of the imperial city.
Not only that, after the worship was completed, Mrs. Lin led the Lin family to kowtow to the princess.
No matter how uncomfortable the cuckoo is at this time, he must cheer up and help the old lady Lin to get up.
Then, the newcomer enters the cave room.
Since getting on the sedan chair, the cuckoo has been in a trance, I don't know how I came all the way, I don't know what I have passed, I didn't pay attention to the noise around me, and even the worship hall was carried out under the guidance of the palace mother, forgetting all the rituals he had learned before, and he was dragged into the cave room by Lin Chun in a daze.
In the sound of congratulations, Lin Chun picked up the red hijab.
The moment she opened it, the cuckoo remembered that she was the bride, so she smiled at him.
Lin Chun, who grew up watching her smile, had a sour nose, and regardless of the many people next to him, he grabbed her hand and pinched it heavily.
The cuckoo's eyes suddenly turned red.
Mrs. Kong hurriedly invited them to drink a glass of wine and eat the dumplings of their children and grandchildren.
When everything was ready, he led everyone out of the princess's dormitory.
Hanshuang led the palace maid to help the cuckoo take off the phoenix crown, except for the dress, put on the regular clothes, and then took away all the palace people with Cui Mama, leaving the horse and the princess alone.
They all knew about Huang Yuan's death in the chaos.
When the room was quiet, Du Juan finally couldn't help it anymore and cried to Lin Chun: "I'm sorry! I shouldn't be sad on this day. But Lin Chun, I'm ...... I can't help it! Woohoo......"
Lin Chun hugged her in his arms and said in a low voice, "Do you still need to explain this?" Even I can't be like nobody, let alone you. If nothing else, just because he is the son of the Huang family, how can you turn a deaf ear. He and I are not only fellow villagers, but also neighbors, and the brother-in-law of my second brother, and I can't ignore it. ”
When the cuckoo heard this, he cried bitterly, and he was afraid that outsiders would hear it, so he suppressed it vigorously.
Lin Chun was asking her to cry well, but he didn't dissuade her, but just kept helping her wipe her tears.
After the cuckoo cried bitterly for half an hour, his voice lowered, and he only wept silently.
Lin Chun hugged her quietly, looking at the pair of table lamps with red sandalwood carvings of rich peony double happiness on the red sandalwood table in front of the left side of the wedding bed. The table lamp is inlaid with glass, reflecting the flickering candle flame, which looks exquisite and joyful.
There are many equally exquisite lamps, some are hung on the beams, some stand upright on the ground, and some are placed on the table, depending on the shape of the lamp holder, the position is also different, and the whole dormitory is decorated with wealth and luxury, hazy and dreamy, and full of joy!
But tonight, they were in vain.
Lin Chun knew that it was difficult for the cuckoo to get rid of this matter, and it was useless to avoid it, so wait for her to be quieter. simply discussed it with her, "Prince Shun's rebellion will not be mentioned." I really didn't expect Huang Li to do this. ”
He felt that Huang Yuan was completely affected by Huang Li.
The cuckoo shook his head. Swallowing tears and crying: "Don't blame her!" ”
Lin Chun hugged her tighter and scolded her in a low voice: "You still protect her?" If it weren't for her, how could Huang Yuan end up like this! ”
The cuckoo still shook his head and said, "Don't blame her." When the son was changed, this was a great enmity that did not share the sky! If it were an ordinary family, Huang Yuan would not let go of the other party. It's just that I have saved some love in the Huang family, and now my identity is a first-class nobility in heaven and earth, and there are ...... Li Dun, that's why he doesn't have a heart of hatred. But the oriole ......"
Lin Chun frowned and said, "The world is like this. There is no equality. Aren't there still loyal ministers in history who have replaced their sons with royal blood? What's more, Huang Yuanyou grew up without danger, and was found back to the Huang family, so it would be foolish to dwell on this matter. The emperor is very grateful to the Huang family for saving you, and the wealth of the Huang family will definitely be immeasurable in the future, and it is really unwise for Huang Li to do this. ”
The cuckoo cried: "Why don't you understand, it's not that the Huang family can't let go, it's that the royal family can't let go!" With this matter, just like his father said before, he could only believe Huang Yuan once. I would never believe him a second time, because he was the emperor. Prince Shun took advantage of this to say that he moved the yellow bird. Even if Huang Li doesn't come out, Prince Shun will spread the inside story of the change. Looking for an opportunity to frame Huang Yuan for having different intentions and dividing their monarchs and ministers, it is still difficult to say what Huang Yuan will do. Prince Shun is really looking for it. Exactly the yellow oriole! If you change someone else, you are not smart enough to understand the sinister in it. His plan fell through. ”
Lin Chun shook his head and said, "That's not what I mean. Even if there is such a predicament, Huang Li should not act rashly. You should tell Huang Yuan about this and discuss it with him. ”
The cuckoo cried: "How old is she, do you expect her to be the same as Huang Yuan?" If children are so sensible, parents all over the world don't have to worry about their children. ”
Lin Chun kept wiping for her, wetting one handkerchief after another,
After calming down a little, the cuckoo said quietly: "Lin Chun, don't blame me, I can't fulfill you with the candles in the cave room tonight." I have a negative Huang family, so let me keep a night guard for him, which can be regarded as sending him. ”
Lin Chun said softly: "Who are you and me?" If I couldn't understand your thoughts, I wouldn't have hurried to you to save him, but I was afraid of this result. I'm not afraid to tell you, I'd rather he live well, be promoted and get rich, and everything goes well, so that you can let go of him completely. I won't say anything else about the high-sounding things. ”
The cuckoo was sad when he heard this, and buried his head in his chest, "You can think of this, why can't my father think of it?" Could it be that when you become an emperor, you really can't have any affection at all? ”
Lin Chun didn't answer, and he didn't know how to answer.
Awesome emperor, he can't understand his mind.
Du Juan suddenly asked again: "How did you know that your father was going to kill Huang Yuan?" ”
Lin Chun said: "The fake emperor was killed, Prince Shun got the news to launch a rebellion, I was ordered by the emperor to meet you, but I listened to his order to Jiu'er...... Lawfully kill on sight. At that time, the emperor's eyes were very strange, and I didn't know why, I just felt frightened, so I thought of Huang Yuan, and I hurried to find you. ”
The cuckoo said: "It's still a trip for nothing." ”
After speaking, tears rained down again.
Lin Chun was also full of discomfort.
The two of them sat quietly in front of the lights in the room, keeping vigil for Huang Yuan.
Huang Yuan, can you feel it?
When it was dark, Huang Li and Xiao Shun, escorted by the dragon guards, took Huang Yuan's coffin home.
At that time, Huang Que'er and Xia Sheng had already come.
Chen Qingdai and Fang Huofeng couldn't believe it, and they didn't cry, they had to open the coffin for inspection.
The house was full of relatives, and naturally they wanted to see the deceased for the last time, so the coffin lid was opened.
The moment they saw Huang Yuan's face, several women couldn't get up in one breath and fainted.
Huang Li didn't say a word, knelt in front of the coffin and burned the paper, and didn't care about them.
"Why are you doing this to me? Why? Fang Huofeng looked at the person in the coffin and muttered, "You don't even want your life for her, what about me?" Just like that, you discarded! ”
Even if it's death, it's not the same!
If Huang Yuan died because of his rebellion against the current emperor, then she would be sad, but she could follow him without any obstacles. But he actually told the emperor before the incident, even if he risked his own life for it. -- She didn't believe that she had been wounded and killed by mistake in the chaotic army!
He defended Cuckoo like this, completely ignoring what she would do with Fang Huofeng after his death, what hope did she have? Even the thought of going with him could not be raised.
Whether she lives or dies, she has been abandoned by him!
