189. Finale
After she died
In recent years, Emperor Chu has become more and more spoiled by Jiuniang.
Everyone says that flowers are not red for a hundred days, and people are good for a thousand days. But in the case of these two people, it doesn't seem to be the same. It stands to reason that men are greedy for beauty, not to mention the king of a country, all the stunning beauties in the world are owned by themselves, and there are few who can control them. But it was evil, and Emperor Chu didn't think there was anything wrong with guarding only one woman for so many years.
The emperor didn't say anything, and others didn't dare to say much. In the past few years, Emperor Chu has become more and more majestic, and very few ministers in the court dare to refute his intentions.
Jiu Niang found that there was something wrong with Emperor Chu yesterday, and her eyes were strange.
"What's wrong with you, looking at me like that, but I'm wrinkled?"
Before he could say a word, he digressed from the topic. Jiuniang hurriedly got off the bed, went to the mirror, took a good look, looked back and forth carefully, and made sure that no wrinkles were found, and then settled down and returned to the couch.
Emperor Chu was a little delicate when she asked, but after being made like this, he lost his previous sense of amazement, and only lost his smile.
As the children get older and older, Jiuniang is now more and more concerned about her appearance, for fear of being said to be old. In fact, she is only in her thirties now, and it is when she is in her prime, and she can be the only favorite queen of the harem, and it is inevitable that she will be under pressure.
Emperor Chu pulled her into his arms and looked at her carefully.
"I didn't notice you had wrinkles, but I was old."
In fact, Emperor Chu is only four years older than Jiu Niang, and he is in the prime of life, how can he be said to be old. The reason why he said this was just to coax her, and by the way, he sighed.
How do you know that Jiuniang took it seriously, and carefully looked at Emperor Chu's handsome face, the more she looked at it, the more she felt that this person was still so good-looking after so many years. Unconsciously blushed, and whispered: "Your Majesty is not old, and he is still as handsome as before." ”
It's all like this, and I don't have to get up early today, but fortunately there is no early court today, and I'm not afraid of delaying time.
The palace people who were serving outside heard the movement inside, and they were about to come in and wait, but they didn't see the summons inside, so they could only wait outside. This Hou is nearly an hour, and the people around the third prince have come to ask twice, but they have all blocked back.
In the house, Emperor Chu tightly wrapped the tired and somewhat confused Jiuniang in his arms.
After many years, the dream was final
Is that love?
The Meng Guifei in the dream scolded right, he was a complete fool, so he would watch her get married, and ignore her awkwardly, causing her to die early. In fact, if he could understand his own heart earlier, with his heart, he probably wouldn't care if she was a wife or not, and he would have forced her to stay by his side.
Ever since that dream, Emperor Chu would always fall into an inexplicable sense of panic, for fear that as soon as he opened his eyes, he would return to that lonely situation. Without her, without these children, only by herself. Obviously high up, Ming Ming has everything in the world, but it seems that he has nothing.
Emperor Chu looked deeply at Jiu Niang lying in his arms, and stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on her sideburns.
Jiu Niang finally relieved herself, and said with a red face: "I am not afraid of people's jokes in broad daylight." ”
Emperor Chu snorted disdainfully, let himself lie flat, and loosened his limbs, but his left arm was still wrapped around Jiuniang and was not lost.
"Whoever dares to laugh, let him laugh and show me."
Jiuniang smiled and buried herself in his arms, "Okay, hurry up, Xiao San must have been making trouble for a long time." ”
The third is the third prince Mu Tai, who is still a baby who has just turned one year old, and like his two elder brothers, he is the most sticky is Jiuniang, and the most afraid is his father Emperor Chu. Obviously, like his second brother when he was a child, he is also a little demon king in the world, and no one can coax him except Jiu Niang to make trouble, but as long as Emperor Chu snorts coldly, he can be very aware and immediately silenced.
made Jiuniang speechless, so small that she would look at her eyes, and occasionally she was annoyed by her son, and she would move the big Buddha of Emperor Chu out.
Speaking of this third son, Emperor Chu frowned. I have never seen a more noisy milk baby than him, in fact, Emperor Chu has not seen it, but now that the second prince is older, he has long forgotten that the second prince was so uneasy back then.
"Ignore him, I don't need to go to court early today, let's sleep a little longer." Unscrupulous dad said.
Jiuniang was a little entangled, that is, she was worried about her son, and she thought that Emperor Chu would rarely save for half a day, and wanted him to rest for a while. After struggling for a while, the distressed thoughts of Emperor Chu still prevailed, so he honestly accompanied him to continue to lie down.
Before he could lie down for a while, he heard a howl from a baby outside. The howl was so loud that it could be heard inside and outside the entire Manna Temple.
Jiu Niang reflexively sat up from the couch and went to put on her clothes. Emperor Chu stared at her back, and had no choice but to follow.
With the arrival of the three princes, the overture was pulled.
Not long after, the crown prince Mu Sheng, the second prince Mu Zhang, and Jiuniang and Princess Changle, the only daughter of Emperor Chu, all came. I'm here to say goodbye. In fact, it was still early at this time, just after the dawn, but because Emperor Chu's work and rest time was earlier, the work and rest time of this big family followed him.
After saying goodbye, the family went to the side hall for breakfast.
Lele is a habitual lover, snuggling up to her mother, eating this for a while, eating that for a while, and letting Jiuniang clip her. Mu Zhang was not to be outdone, and circled around Jiuniang, unaware that he was already more than ten years old, and there was anything wrong with competing with his sister for favor. Not to mention the junior in Jiu Niang's arms, he can't even speak, and he knows that he is competing with his brothers and sisters for A-Niang's attention.
That is, Mu Sheng, who is getting older now, and is the prince again, he is used to being calm on weekdays, and he can't be a child, but his eyes are also rolling over there. Then there is Emperor Chu, the father and son sit together, giving people a very similar look, both of them have calm and condensed faces, but in fact, there is a little jealousy in the eyes that turn there.
The father and son looked at each other tacitly and continued to eat dullly. Over there, Jiuniang finally got the second son and daughter, and began to pick up a small spoon to feed the third child egg custard.
At this time, it was Lele and Mu Zhang's turn to be jealous.
"The queen mother let the nurse feed the mistress."
"He's not too young, it's time to learn to eat by himself, my son remembers that when he was his age, he learned to eat by himself." This unscrupulous brother didn't want to think about how his younger brother couldn't even walk now, so he could eat by himself, so he opened his eyes and talked nonsense. Does he remember? When he was more than a year old, he could remember a fart!
Jiuniang was stunned, and then laughed.
Looking at her third son who was staring at her with big eyes in her arms, she kissed the other party's tender little face, and said jokingly: "Little San, did you listen to what the second brother and sister said, you have to learn to eat by yourself." ”
Xiao San bounced twice on her lap, urging her with a whining in his mouth.
Why don't you feed me?
*
Jiuniang also discovered that Emperor Chu also had a gossip side.
It was discovered by chance, and she once accidentally saw a secret letter on his dragon case.
She had seen this kind of secret letter, when she was still in the palace of the king of Chu, the spies under the emperor of Chu presented the news in this way. It seems that Emperor Chu's habit has not changed for many years.
Jiu Niang picked up the secret letter and looked at it, not to blame her for being curious, but that the secret letter was open on the table, and she saw it without looking at it. And the reason why she went to see it was only because the message on this secret letter was related to someone she knew.
Wang family, Wang Shilang.
In fact, the letter did not say anything important, but only described the recent situation of the Wang family, focusing on Wang Shilang's news. It's all trivial and trivial, but after reading the whole letter, Jiuniang is subtle.
This secret letter gave her the feeling as if it was those trivial things, which someone specially presented to Emperor Chu. It stands to reason that Emperor Chu is now the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, and he can't worry about major affairs in the court, how can he pay attention to the trivial things in the life of a small person who is not even a courtier, but this happened like this.
Looking at this situation, I am afraid that this is not the first time that this kind of secret letter has been delivered.
Why did Emperor Chu do this?
Jiuniang was very sure that Emperor Chu had no connection with Wang Shilang, or even the Wang family. Not to mention the connection, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Chu is not waiting to see the Wang family much.
Over the years, the Wang family has gradually declined, which has something to do with Emperor Chu's disappointment. Linked to Wang Shilang's pestering of her back then, and she was bumped into by Emperor Chu, an inexplicable thought rose in Jiu Niang's heart, is that person still jealous?
"What are you looking at?"
Emperor Chu's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Jiu Niang didn't panic when someone broke it, she just pointed to the letter and wrote lightly: "Help you clean up the bookcase, I accidentally saw this." ”
Emperor Chu nodded, also looking understated, as if he didn't want to explain anything.
Since Emperor Chu didn't want to say anything more, Jiu Niang naturally wouldn't be stupid to ask, not to mention that she had long forgotten who Wang Shilang was, even for Emperor Chu's little care, she couldn't bear to poke it. Especially this person is still jealous, which also makes Jiu Niang's heart a little sweet.
However, Emperor Chu was a little uncontrollable, and he was silent for a while, and said: "This Wang Shilang is becoming more and more unsightly, I remember that he was also a talented man back then, but now he only knows that he is immersed in those trivialities in the backyard, but he has been reduced to women and children." "Very disdainful.
Is this a temptation?
Jiu Niang's eyes flashed, and she looked light.
"The pride of the sky, after being hit for a while, will languish, it is not surprising that it will become like this." In fact, Jiu Niang is not wrong to say this, the situation of the Wang family, coupled with the presence of Mrs. Wang's mother-in-law, the Xue family has fallen again, and Wang Shilang's life can be seen.
Emperor Chu snorted, although he didn't speak, but there was a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Well, Jiu Niang is really not used to talking in circles with Emperor Chu now.
She snuggled over lovingly, rubbed on Emperor Chu's body, and asked Xiaoyi'er: "Your Majesty, are you still eating that old vinegar back then?" ”
Emperor Chu almost choked on his own saliva, and his face stiffened terribly.
Jiu Niang didn't get good and behaved, and said: "Don't say that the concubine was very disgusted with this person back then, there is a wise and martial majesty, at that time, in my eyes, where can I see other people." ”
As the saying goes, thousands of clothes don't wear sycophants, anyway, Emperor Chu is very useful. Although he didn't say anything in his mouth, the slightly raised corners of his mouth could explain a qiē.
He pulled her into his arms and pinched her thin white fingers, "Sycophant, my daughter learned from you." ”
Oh my God, that's a sin that can't be excused. But slapping the sycophants, Jiu Niang admitted, who let men eat this set. Now that the relationship between the two is very good, she doesn't want a little Wang Shilang to stop the two of them from doing anything, what Emperor Chu thinks is his business, at least she has to show her attitude.
So she blinked innocently, a woman in her thirties, making this look does not make people feel abrupt, but feels very delicate, anyway, Emperor Chu is very pleasing to the eye.
"People tell the truth, this kind of person is too indecisive, unstable on his own feet, and soft in his ears. Back then, the Wang family wanted to marry the Cheng family, but who knew that he was entangled with Xiao Ru again, but Wenjing broke her heart for a while, but fortunately, Wenjing finally found her happiness. And he deserves to live his life like this. ”
Jiu Niang said with great disdain, and her face was full of disdain. Even if Emperor Chu didn't eat the old vinegar of Lao Shizi at all, he was also very useful in his heart at this time.
This little turmoil caused by Wang Shilang was quickly forgotten, and the two talked about trivial matters for a while, and then put the topic on the prince's wedding.
In the blink of an eye, the crown prince Mu Sheng is already seventeen years old, and it is time to get married at the age of the royal family. It's just that in choosing the crown princess for his son, Emperor Chu is particularly cautious, not only Emperor Chu, but also Jiuniang, the queen mother, is also very concerned.
Emperor Chu said the names of a few candidate noblewomen, and Jiuniang listened to it and put it in her heart, thinking silently.
"These little ladies are not bad, but we have to look at them carefully. I don't believe in any reputation that has been circulated, the so-called reputation is either hype-up or deliberate, and only a very few have real material. ”
Jiu Niang was also a noble girl back then, and she has never dealt with those so-called noble ladies and noblewomen in her two lives, even if she has been living in the palace for many years, she also understands some of the wits in it.
"This is our first daughter-in-law, but we have to pick carefully, Your Majesty can't be careless."
"This matter is not difficult to do, you have been idle all these years, and the palace should be lively. Hold a few more banquets, summon some people into the palace to talk to you, and take a look by the way, there are so many noble girls in Chang'an City, you can always pick one out. ”
Emperor Chu doesn't have the worries of being a mother like Jiu Niang, in his opinion, everything in the world is owned by himself, and the prince will be his heir in the future, and it is not difficult to choose a qualified princess. He didn't know Jiu Niang's careful thoughts, he had a very good relationship with Emperor Chu, and she also hoped that her son could find a confidant. It's just that Jiuniang also understands that this kind of thing is unavoidable, and now she can only take one step at a time.
Especially the children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, since the children are older, Jiuniang has a deep understanding of this.
In the end, he is the only one who can always be by his side.
Thinking so, Jiu Niang looked at Emperor Chu's eyes softened, although it could not be called affectionate, but it was also fine and dense, as if it was wrapped in silk, and it was very light and merged into a net, framing Emperor Chu.
Emperor Chu's eyes also softened, rubbed her hand affectionately, and said softly: "In a few years, Sheng'er will be able to take charge alone, and our daughter will also get married, so I will take you out for a walk." ”
Jiu Niang looked at Emperor Chu in surprise.
She has always felt that with Emperor Chu's character, she is probably going to be an emperor for a lifetime, and she can only accompany him in this palace for the rest of her life. Now I am very surprised to hear him say this.
"Is that okay?"
"Why not, do you want me to die of exhaustion on this dragon chair?!"
Jiuniang hurriedly covered his mouth, and after a few mouthfuls, she said, "I didn't think so, and you are not allowed to think so." ”
Emperor Chu took her hand and looked at her deeply: "In fact, there are still many beautiful scenery outside Chang'an City, while the two of us can still move, it is not bad to see this great river and mountain." ”
In that dream, he was obviously in good health, but he only lived to be forty-nine years old, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he died of exhaustion on the dragon chair. With her in this life, he naturally didn't want to die early, and he wanted to be with her for a long time, although he never said it.
The qiē in that dream was destined not to happen, and they would definitely live a happy and happy life in this life.
Certain.
Emperor Chu also remembered one thing, she had never told him, but he thought that one day she would sue him.
After all, they still have a lifetime to live.
For a lifetime, this word is wonderful when you think about it.
"Okay, then we'll settle it."
"Hmm."
