Chapter 60: The Affair of the Yue Kingdom
Tianqing and Xuanse stayed in a small inn next to the Jingguo Imperial Palace, and both of them were a little tired, and they both fell asleep. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as Xuan Se woke up the next day, he saw a large table of dishes on the table, he rubbed his eyes, and saw that Tianqing was setting the dishes and chopsticks, so he got up and asked in surprise: "...... this dish?"
Tianqing smiled faintly and said, "I did it." Come and try it! ”
Xuan Se walked down in a trance, looking carefully at the dish in front of him. Braised pork ribs, Dongpo fish ...... What a good meal! There is also a pot of daughter red next to the dish. Xuan Se rubbed his eyes again, and suddenly looked at Tianqing and said, "Are you the pavilion master I know?" ”
Tianqing said helplessly: "The eighteenth change of the female university, I didn't know how to cook before, but it doesn't mean that I won't be able to cook in the future." And ......" Tianqing lowered his head and said with some sadness: "Tianqing Pavilion no longer exists, and I am no longer the pavilion master, just call me Tianqing." ”
Xuan Se realized that his mouth was fast, and quickly changed the topic: "Then let's try your dish first!" After speaking, he moved his chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, he tasted a bite, tasted another bite, couldn't stop at all, and couldn't stop admiring: "Hmm! Not bad. That's good, that's good! Tianqing looked at him and smiled with satisfaction. The food in the palace is not necessarily worse than hers, it can be said that it is far better than hers. But Xuan Se was in a low mood in the palace, had no appetite, and was relaxed and comfortable outside the palace.
Xuan Se looked at Tianqing and asked a little strangely, "Why do you cook so many dishes at once?" Just because the two of us escaped from Mu Longfu's clutches? ”
Tianqing didn't speak, poured a glass of wine, raised it in front of Xuan Se, and said a little seriously: "Actually, this table ...... It's for you. ”
Xuan Se was stunned for a moment and said, "Practice? Where am I going? ”
Tianqing smiled lightly and said, "It's time for you to go back to Yueguo." Jingguo, after all, is not a place to stay for a long time. ”
Xuan's face became ugly: "But I don't want to go back, and I don't want others to order me to go back!" He suddenly looked at Tianqing with some annoyance, and said, "If you want to drive me away, I will leave, but not Huiyueguo." ”
"But you are the only prince of Yue Kingdom!" Tianqing's tone suddenly became firm: "You should have put national affairs first, instead of staying in this capital country all the time, and you have suffered for two years in vain!" ”
Xuan Se saw Tianqing's seriousness, and his tone softened: "You won't understand." I'm going to have to find someone here, and if I can't find it, I'm not going back. ”
Tianqing sighed helplessly and said, "Then who are you looking for?" ”
Xuan Se also sighed, looked at Tianqing and said, "I'll tell you a story." Tianqing looked at Xuan Se, and that deep feeling was like Xiao Nian telling her the story of her mother when she first told her.
"Many years ago, the previous emperor of the Yue Kingdom was called Xuan Nie, and he only had one concubine, that is, his queen. They loved each other very much, but they had no children. One day, the people in the palace found an abandoned baby at the gate of the palace and brought it back. Xuan Ne loves this baby boy very much, and because he has no children of his own, and the throne of Yueguo must be inherited, he raised this child, although he did not set up a prince, but in the eyes of outsiders, this is the next generation of emperors. But the next year, the queen became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter. Because she is of pure royal blood, it stands to reason that the next generation of monarchs should be her. And then it turned out to be true. The daughter became the empress of the Yue Kingdom, and the boy was named the prince. Things should have gone on smoothly like this, but no one expected that three years after the empress ascended the throne, she disappeared for no reason, and suddenly the Yue Kingdom was in chaos, because according to the etiquette, the boy replaced the empress and became the emperor of the Yue Kingdom. It's a pity that because he was not born to Xuan Ne, and the empress disappeared inexplicably, rumors spread in Yueguo City, saying that the boy assassinated the empress in order to grab the throne. So in the twenty-two years of his reign, the Yue Kingdom was not peaceful. But in private, he kept looking for the empress, and even his son came out to look for the empress in order to stabilize the position of the royal family. It's a pity that in the past 22 years, it has still been unsuccessful. Xuan Se looked at the sky and finished the whole story lightly.
Tianqing looked at Xuan Se with some reluctance and said, "Then ...... you are?"
"That's right, that baby boy is my father Xuanyu, and his son who came to find the empress is my Xuanse." When Xuan Se said this, his eyes showed sadness.
"Then when I rescued you back then, those who chased and killed you ......" Tianqing thought of something and asked again.
"That's right, those are the Empress's loyal soldiers. They thought that it was my father who killed the empress, and when they heard that I was out of the Yue Kingdom alone, they chased me here and wanted to kill me to avenge the empress. Xuan Se replied lightly.
"I've been looking for twenty-two years, and I haven't found it yet, maybe...... The man is dead. Tianqing was a little unbearable, but he still said his guess.
"Then I want the people of Yueguo to see our sincerity! If we don't do anything, the people will resent us even more! Xuanse closed her eyes in pain.
Tianqing didn't expect that Xuanse, who always had an intoxicating smile that didn't seem to eat fireworks in the world, also had such unspeakable pain. Tianqing thought for a while and said seriously: "Maybe you can make the people surrender in another way. If you govern the country prosperously and strongly, the people will also appreciate your goodness. What if it's not the empress, as long as you can let the people live a worry-free life, who will blame you? Even the most stubborn person should understand the truth of this, right? Tianqing's words are reasonable.
Xuan Se was stunned for a moment, indeed, neither he nor his father thought of these things. They are obsessed with recovering what they have lost, but they have no idea of creating another one. But this Tianqing thought of it. Xuan Se sighed, but he also firmed: "What you said is reasonable. Perhaps, I did waste a lot of time doing the impossible, and I did stay in Kyungkoku for too long, and it was time to go back. ”
Hearing this, Tianqing happily raised his wine glass and said, "It's good that you can think so, my dish on this table is not in vain, come, drink it!" ”
Xuan Se took the wine glass, looked at Tianqing, and then drank it all firmly.
