The emperor sneered: "It's not easy for you to finally remember your son!" ”

The little prince was born seven pounds and four taels, not big or small, and his body was very healthy. The newborns Qiwen saw on TV in the past were all red and wrinkled like a little monkey, but she didn't expect that although her son was also a little red, he was not wrinkled at all, his little face was smooth and round, and his facial features were also upright and beautiful, and his appearance was more pleasing to the eye than any child she had ever seen.

"It can be seen that it is with me, and it must be better than you when you grow up!" Qiwen hugged the big red embroidered dragon swaddling clothes, and finally showed her joy, and said to the child and his father in a rebellious way.

The emperor was stunned: "Am I not good-looking?" So what kind of eyes do you have on me? ”

Qiwen pursed her lips and glanced at him: "I'm not a person who judges people by their appearance, and you didn't know it today." ”

"......" Emperor couldn't help but want to re-cultivate his hostility and schadenfreude towards Yuan Ying.

Thinking that there was still a half-crazy brother who was bent on death and had to drink water, the joy of the safety of his wife and children was diluted a little. He really couldn't help but worry, she woke up, she was fine, who knew if this news could change Yuan Ying's something.

Qiwen is concerned about another big thing - the favorability is 99, how can I get the last 1 point? Do you want to have another ......

Early the next morning, King Tan was released from the Qianyuan Palace room where he had been locked up for three days, and when he went out, he was accompanied by a total of four Ouchi guards in front of and behind him.

The attendants were going to wash and change his clothes just now, but King Tan didn't ask for it, nor did he go to eat the breakfast they sent, and only drank a few sips of water. In fact, as early as last night, when the emperor sent someone to pass the news of Qiwen's awakening to him, he began to drink water, but it was limited to drinking water, and he never ate, let alone speak.

When he walked out of the room, his steps were still slightly vain.

His clothes were still neat, and his body was very straight, not at all wolf. Only his hair was scattered, and a few strands hung down on his cheeks, which made his extremely beautiful face look like a delicate woman at a glance, and still a sickly and haggard beauty.

He raised his head and looked at the sky with wide eyelids, as if there was a kind of melancholy of being reborn.

The Emperor was waiting for him in the courtyard, with a number of swords behind him.

"I sent four Changshi and a team of Yulin Guards to return home with you." The emperor's face was blank and said flatly.

King Tan had just made such a radical move, and his current mental state is not very normal. At such times, whether it is to prevent him from harming himself or threatening others, it is necessary to closely monitor and restrict his movements. can still let him go home, without □□ it, it is already extraordinarily gracious.

King Tan's gloomy face didn't see any fluctuations, and when he walked to him, he actually knelt down in his clothes, and said: "The day before yesterday, the minister brother was impulsive, and offended the imperial brother, and the crime deserved death. I would like to thank the royal brother for my sins and thanks. ”

The plain and beautiful voice has become very hoarse, and there is no emotion to be heard except in a deferential tone.

The Emperor felt a dull knife ache for a moment, and before he could finish prostrating, he reached out and took his arm to help him stand up.

This brother has been accustomed to pretending since he was a child, and this is probably also pretending, in order to win his mercy, make him soft-hearted, relax his vigilance, and be able to withdraw the fate of sending someone to monitor on the spot.

The emperor knew it, but he clearly felt in his hand that the other party was almost unstable on his feet, but he was still strongly supporting and unwilling to show it, he really couldn't do it if he didn't want to be soft-hearted.

After those knots, how could he be gullible and believe that what Yuan Ying said was true? But the so-called seeing is believing, he has had the experience of countless battles with the old foxes of the court ministers, and he is confident that he has become a fiery eye, how can anyone pretend to be in front of him and let him not see the slightest flaw?

He didn't believe that Yuan Ying had such extraordinary abilities, so although he hadn't made up his mind yet, he was really inclined to believe in Yuan Ying. On the other hand, he and Yuan Ying have lived together since they were children, getting along day and night, and they have also known each other for more than ten years, so he can't believe that what he sees in front of him is just Yuan Ying playing.

But before he could speak, King Tan said again: "The second brother is magnanimous, but I can't be too ignorant." Second brother rest assured, this time I returned home, I honestly thought about it behind closed doors, and I would not trouble the second brother again. ”

After saying that, he bowed and made up for it, then turned around and walked out.

The emperor hesitated for a moment, but added: "She's all right." ”

King Tan, who had just taken two steps, paused, and after standing for a moment, he turned back sharply. With his movement, the servants guarding behind the emperor all tightened their hands on the handle of the embroidered spring knife.

King Tan didn't show the slightest intention of attacking, just looked at the emperor and asked, "So far, why is the second brother still insisting on not wanting to kill me, can you make it clear?" ”

His eyes were gloomy, and his tone was unremarkable, not at all like he was discussing such a murderous topic, but like an ignorant and naïve child, asking his own adults about his newly discovered doubts.

The emperor couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, and without waiting for him to reply, King Tan first turned his gaze away, and said to himself: "Are you afraid that your mother will be sad, or are you really thinking about your flesh and blood?" Still is...... I can't bear it because I just made a great contribution in the war against the country? However, since I want to die myself, what is there to worry about? ”

The Emperor sighed lightly: "Why do you bother to die? ”

Is it just because you know she wants you dead? Realizing that it was the sentence that he was not qualified to be martyred last time that stimulated him the most, the emperor naturally did not dare to say this kind of thing anymore.

King Tan's eyes fell, and he also sighed lightly: "I know better than you how deep the sins I have carried, and I understand better than you that my life is not worth keeping." For the past three days, I've been wondering why I'm still alive, but I still haven't figured it out. ”

Is he truly repentant? The emperor was so bewildered that he did not dare to believe it lightly, nor could he find the slightest flaw in his table to overturn this conclusion.

King Tan showed a wry smile, and his gloomy eyes were slightly clearer: "But the second brother may be justified in this way, who said that people who are guilty of great sins should apologize for their sins with death?" Continuing to live, bearing the torment of life worse than death, and at the same time, doing a little bit to forgive sins, must be the right way. ”

After saying that, he bowed again, and then turned and walked away.

The emperor looked at him quietly for a moment, and then said to the servants who were waiting for him to show him: "Remember, I want you to go to the Tan Palace, in order to ensure the safety and integrity of Yuan Ying, not to let you guard him as a prisoner...... Go ahead. ”

That's it, just like him, who knows what he will do after thinking about it for a few days? It is also appropriate for someone to take a good look at it, and it is also for his good.

…

The fact that the three princes shot the queen to save Concubine Chen cannot be spread outside, and the fact that the three princes have the heart to martyr Concubine Chen cannot be spread either. The palace said to the outside world that the third prince was accidentally injured on the way to lead people into the palace to exterminate the rebellious people, and stayed in the palace to recuperate for three days.

Later, I heard that the first thing Yuan Ying did after returning to the palace was to order all his wives and concubines to move away from the periphery of his residence and drive them to live in the cross-courtyard in the corner of the palace. But because a favorite concubine cried and didn't leave, he simply ordered on the spot, except for the main concubine who still moved to the courtyard, all the rest of the concubines were sold, and no one was left.

If so, there's really no need to look so similar.

The emperor also wanted to leave a margin in his heart and not believe Yuan Ying's words, but seeing Yuan Ying's lost soul so real, he really couldn't believe it. He himself is a lover, and his father is barely counted, who dares to say that Yuan Ying, who was born with his father, must not be it?

In fact, this was originally the moment when he trusted Yuan Ying the most in many years.

King Tan pretended to surrender and secretly contacted Heguo Guan Bai, in addition to taking the opportunity to spy on the enemy's movements, he also played one more trick. He joined forces with the emperor and gradually infiltrated the enemy army with a message that Guan Bai of the country was secretly negotiating peace with the imperial family of Dayan, and was planning to sacrifice part of the national interests of the country in exchange for his personal benefits.

As a result, suspicion slowly grew among the enemy army, and seeing that the battle was lost again and again, more and more generals suspected that they had been betrayed by the supreme commander behind them. So the war could only be more lost.

In the later stages of the war, the emperor even directly contacted a powerful minister of Heguo along the relationship found out by King Tan, promised him a lot of money, and encouraged him to rebel and stand on his own, successfully causing a fire in the backyard of Heguo, and he was too busy to take care of himself.

It can be said that it was King Tan's strategy that succeeded in ending this battle several months ahead of schedule, saving a huge amount of military expenses for Dayan and saving the lives of countless Dayan soldiers. Judging from the current situation of the country's lack of vitality, it can also be said that he has contributed an important force to saving the entire Great Yan Dynasty.

Although this does not prove that King Tan abandoned evil and followed good, but just had such a past, as soon as he came back, he saw that he had become this lost soul and cut off from his thoughts, how could the emperor still be so hard that he completely regarded him as a political enemy?

Counting it carefully, these reactions of Yuan Ying can be explained, and they can be regarded as reasonable, if he really repents after this stimulation, it is not so bizarre and unbelievable. The emperor also sincerely hoped that this would be the case, but of course, he would not take it lightly and really go and have no defense against Yuan Ying.

He is now a man with a wife and children, and even if he does not think about himself, but only for his wife and children, he must act carefully.

In fact, even the Queen Mother heard the details, and only sighed and persuaded the emperor: "Be more careful of him in the future." "I didn't directly see Yuan Ying as a good child who was a new person.

This is not to say that the queen mother completely fell to the emperor and hated her younger son, this time the rebels were able to get out of danger when they broke into the palace, thanks to Yuan Ying who led the palace to help relieve the siege in time. The Queen Mother just proceeded from caution and sincerely hoped that her two sons would stop fighting. After all, it is possible to continue to find fault and stir up trouble, and it will only be Yuan Ying.

The emperor also knew very well that even if he really accepted Yuan Ying's rhetoric in full, it would not mean that Yuan Ying's hostility towards him was completely eliminated and he would never find trouble for him in the future - a person as kind as Zhi Ning would still have a moment of resentment, let alone Yuan Ying? The resentment of two men fighting over a woman is likely to be more ingrained and difficult to resolve than the struggle for power.

No matter how entangled and confused he was, King Tan stopped for the time being. After disposing of the women in the house, he fulfilled the promise he had thought about behind closed doors, not only did he not leave the house, but he also did not even go out of the door of the small courtyard of Caiweitang, and he could hardly say a word except for maintaining a basically normal routine every day.

In addition to taking care of his daughter-in-law who turned the corner and rehousing his brother who lost his soul, the emperor has a lot to do at the moment.

The rebellion of the Sanskrit religion has been quelled, and the investigation of the remnants of sins needs to continue. It is still a sensitive period, and there are still other civil disturbances waiting to be quelled and appeased, and it is necessary to control the situation appropriately in the investigation of the chaotic people in the capital, and neither too lenient to keep the troubles in the future, nor too strict to cause too many troubles. It also needs to be arranged by the emperor himself and prudently assigned people to carry it out.

In addition, a great battle concerning the foundation of the country has just been fought, and the reward for meritorious deeds and the punishment of crimes must be carried out while the iron is hot, so as to push both power and prestige to the peak and achieve the best results.

Qiwen suffered a lot of vitality in childbirth this time, and she needs to recuperate. Every day, when the emperor came back to Longxi Pavilion from business, she had already fallen asleep, and the two of them had no chance to meet. During the day, the emperor also took the time to sit with her as much as possible, teasing his son, and at night, in order not to disturb her, he slept in the bedroom next to the imperial study in the front hall, leaving the apse to Qiwen.

spent more than a month like this - there is one more thing that must be explained, Qian Yuanhe's assassination fortunately did not hurt the vital point, a rib was broken, and a lot of blood flowed, relying on his young body to quickly survive, and the Sanskrit Yin Sect who stabbed him was also caught. Afterwards, Master Qian had to recuperate from his injuries and was scolded by his master Wang Zhi.

The emperor also gave certain punishments to the officials of the yamen who were responsible for negligence, but they still saw that the situation was unstable and the internal friction was not good, so they were all given a light sentence. Generally speaking, the entire Jingshi has been largely immersed in the joyful atmosphere of the victory of the dynasty and the birth of the little prince for more than a month.

By the time Qiwen saw that she was about to sit on the full moon, the emperor was also largely idle.

Great Yan Dynasty from Tai. Grandfather's generation respected Tianyi very much, and Zhang Tianshi, who was reigning at that time, once asserted that their Bai family's descendants would be short of water in the five elements. Grandpa ordered that the royal lineage of each future generation should be named next to the word water. (Such as Bai Lianzhen, and Bai Fanyang is not)

When the eldest son of the third prince Bai Yuanying was born, the first emperor set the typesetting of the next generation as "Shu", which means timely rain. The eldest son of the emperor and Qiwen naturally has to typeset in this way, but the big name is not in a hurry to take it, just need to give a catchy nickname first, because the emperor prefers the word "reputation", and Qiwen feels that there is nothing wrong with it except that he can think of Dali Duan's family in the play, and the little prince's nickname is set as Yu'er.

When the emperor came to see Qiwen again that day, Qiwen was sitting cross-legged on the kang between the pins, teasing the child with Qin'er and the nurse.

At the end of October in the old calendar, it was the middle of winter, the earth dragon was burning very hot, the house was warm, and the laughter of the women and the babbling of the children melted into the warm air, which was warm and comfortable. The emperor couldn't help but think of the folk saying that "wives and children are hot on the kang", and his heart was also as warm as spring.

"Today, I am always on the court, and someone is on the table, please make a queen. Si Guogong himself is among them. After the subordinates finished their salutes and retreated, the emperor sat on the side of the kang and said.

Qiwen straightened the collar of her son's jacket, made a movement in her hand, and quickly continued calmly, and said lightly: "When the wife of an ordinary family dies, it will take a year to keep the system before it can be continued." ”

"As you wish," said the Emperor, "you will be able to agree after a year?" ”

Qiwen silently lowered her eyelids and did not answer.

The emperor sighed: "Do you know that if you don't become the queen, you won't even be qualified to be buried in the same cave with me in the future?" ”

Qiwen laughed: "After death, what do you care about so much?" ”

"But it's always going to be a big flaw in my heart, and you don't care at all?" The emperor unconsciously raised his voice a little.

Qiwen didn't give an inch: "But if I just agree, I will leave a big regret in my heart!" ”

The emperor muttered silently.

Who is right and who is wrong in that accident is the biggest disagreement between the two of them. He is more inclined to believe in Yuan Ying, but she still does not give up believing in the queen, so he is very resentful and even disgusted with the queen, and he is in no mood to treat her as a wife anymore, but she is still pitying the queen, and even feels indebted to the queen.

Sadly, neither of them can come up with evidence to prove that they are right, they cannot convince the other party, and the differences have always existed. As soon as the topic touches on here, the atmosphere will change sour. This has almost become the only rift between them.

However, rifts are rifts, and while insisting on their own opinions, they can also be considerate of each other, knowing that if they change places, they will inevitably be the same point of view as the other party.

The emperor especially understands that after all, Qiwen has been taken care of by the queen for many months, and she has had such a deep relationship with Yuan Ying in the past, almost fighting for her life, how can she be so easy to reverse the concept? He stretched out his arm and hugged her in his arms: "That's good, it's all up to you." ”

Qiwen also softened her tone and said quietly: "Didn't there have been favorite concubines who accompanied the emperor to be buried together?" ”

"You know I'm not concerned about the aftermath, it's about ...... Well, it's too early to tell. The emperor let Qiwen's head rest on his shoulder, stroked her soft hair, looked at his son lying on the side, blinking his eyes like black grapes, and said silently in his heart: When this child should succeed to the throne, he was born as a son-in-law......

The child turned his face faster than the book, and in the blink of an eye, his facial features wrinkled, and he cried out "wow", which frightened the father and mother who were hugging each other.

The nurse and the palace maids hurriedly came over to help take care of her, and Qiwen picked up her son and opened her shirt to feed: "He is hungry, and he hasn't eaten for a while." ”

"Why do you keep feeding him yourself?" The emperor asked.

In fact, she asked knowingly, because of the incident before her birth, her sense of security was greatly impacted, and she was nervous from time to time for a while, either worried that the eunuch was a thief who wanted to murder her son, or worried that the nurse was not doing her duty, as long as she could do what she could, she insisted on doing it herself, and did not dare to hand it over to her subordinates. Thinking of this, he is always distressed and helpless.

Qiwen got better as soon as she hugged the child, and said with a smile: "I feed it if I have it, and sometimes I feel that eating my milk is like my own son." Anyway, my own milk alone is enough for him. ”

"Yes, I can see it......" the Emperor said absent-mindedly, turning his face away uncomfortably.

The red thin cotton jacket was inlaid with a three-finger-wide embroidered collar of entwined lotus, revealing a white and tender skin and flesh like tofu in the middle, and the round size was obviously larger than before......

God knows how many days he's endured, almost eight months, right? Eight months! It's just that I don't usually touch this thing, but seeing such a fragrant scene, I really can't keep myself calm.

The nurse was still complimenting "Niangniang's physique is so milky", and the palace maids also laughed and agreed, and no one noticed that there was a physiologically healthy man present who was rubbing his nose, silently enduring the mood fluctuations that were extremely discordant with this scene.

The little guy moved his little lips and sucked hard, and it didn't take long for him to eat and fall asleep.

"Hurry up, bring wet wipes, this time it's dripping hard." Qiwen's words caused him to turn his face again, it turned out that the other side would leak milk when feeding, and at this time, her jacket on that side was wet, and the other side of the placket had not been pulled up, and it was still flowing quietly......

The emperor only felt that the nosebleed went straight to the bridge of his nose, and he couldn't stand it anymore. He came over and hugged his son decently, carefully handed it over to the nursing mother, waved his hand to let the people retreat, and couldn't wait for people to go out, so a hungry tiger pounced on food, threw Qiwen on the bed, and put his lips up to make up for his son's shortcomings.

"I'm afraid I can't ...... yet" Qiwen struggled slightly, and the lacerations were not neat.

"I know...... Just use your hands. ”

“…… It seems that he is more sympathetic to me, since it is with his hands, whose hands can't be used, not with me? ”

“…… Could it be that you still let me use my own? ”

"I mean let you find another ......"

"Nonsense! Nonsense! If you dare to say this kind of nonsense again, be careful that I don't sympathize with you, and this will be hard! ”

"Actually, it seems that the wound doesn't hurt anymore, so let's not use our hands......"

"That's what you said, sue me if it hurts......"
