Chapter 29: Ambition

The Queen Mother died and mourned endlessly. Feng Xiuyun wanted to leave the guard, and Diexi was arranged to be sent back to the house by the inner guard.

The other three kings had also come to the outside of the hall, and Diexi walked slowly as if she had lost her soul, looking at the figures of the three people sluggishly, and the tears in her eyes couldn't stop falling down, "The concubines ask for peace to your lords." ”

King Jin's eyes were sharp, and when he saw the bracelet in Diexi's hand, he suddenly felt a wave of anger in his heart, and he raised his foot angrily and skimmed her side.

Seeing this, King Heng lightly called her to calm down, and followed without stopping.

Diexi looked at King Huai, his eyes met, his face was indifferent, he didn't linger with a slight bow, but just whispered when he passed by: "Xi'er, thank you." ”

Twenty-seven death knells, the sound of a knife like a cone knocked on Diexi's heart.

Jingqi looked at the heartbroken Diexi, and comforted her softly, "Master, you have done a good job, if it weren't for you, how could the Queen Mother go so clearly." ”

Diexi shook his head stagnantly, as if talking to himself, "I heard that the light guard has entered Beijing before the death knell rings, if I fight a little bit, I will definitely be able to make an antidote in a day or two with Miao's ability, but I am useless!" ”

She slammed the table with a fist in anger, and finally couldn't stop crying.

"Don't say that, blame the initiator if you want to blame, don't hurt your body." Jingqi continued to comfort Diexi while rubbing her little hands.

Diexi shook his head and changed the topic, "I also want to fast and keep filial piety these days, you let the dining room prepare."

Even if you die clearly, you will die clearly in your last life, but you will never see it again. Only by living, no matter how painful, no matter how miserable, only by living, can you be qualified to watch it.

The Queen Mother went west, and hundreds of officials guarded the spirit. The emperor kneeling in front of the hall was very painful, but the four sons behind him had different expressions.

The king of Jin is moderate, the king of Rui is sad, the king of Heng is weak, and the king of Huai is sad.

Three days later, the emperor closed the coffin with his own hands and sent the queen mother on her last journey. He stood solemnly in place, looking at the backs of his sons kneeling and retiring, and his heart was stunned, as if he was bidding farewell today.

Seeing this, Tong Guan beside him called softly, "Your Majesty, the weather is cold, go back early." ”

"You go and pass on my decree and order Ling Mo, the leader of the Praetorian Guard, to personally arrest that flower thief!"

Feng Xiuyun returned to the palace and walked to Fangqin Xuan unconsciously. The maids outside the door retreated to the side, and he went straight inside, walking in the empty room, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

Diexi dismissed everyone early, and one person curled up in the quilt and thought about it.

There were no candles in the dormitory, only the hazy moonlight shining through a small window, illuminating the room in a blur.

She suddenly felt someone coming, and she raised her head in surprise, and the whole person was pulled into a warm embrace.

"Your Highness......" Diexi moved, surrounded by his familiar aura again, and her eyes turned red again.

"Don't move." Feng Xiuyun's hands couldn't help but tighten a little tighter, he had barely closed his eyes in the past three days, and his voice was a little hoarse, "That's it, it'll be fine for a while." ”

Diexi choked for a moment, patted him lightly on the back, and persuaded him in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, take care of your body and mourn." ”

"Xiaoxi." He let go of her slightly, a pair of peach blossom eyes were bloodshot, saying that he was sad, but he was also affectionate, "Do you believe my oath to the Queen Mother?" ”

Her eyes were full of mist, and she only felt her heart tremble slightly when she heard his question, and she closed her eyes and shook her head.

"Why don't you believe it?" If he doesn't believe it, he Feng Xiuyun won't believe it. The hand he clamped around her arm unconsciously used a little more force, "Is it because I did too much on the wedding day?" Still is...... Or was it because you fell ill when you were a child? ”

"Your Highness......"

"I see......" he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled a little self-deprecatingly, "it's him...... You like him......"

He let go of her arm, turned his head lonely, and wanted to get up and leave, but his sleeve was grabbed by her small hand, "I have never liked His Royal Highness King Huai." ”

Feng Xiuyun seemed to be a little encouraged, and looked at her with some incredulity, "Then why?" Xiaoxi, I can explain it on the day we got married......"

"No need to explain......" she shook her head slightly, "The emperor can't tolerate the prime minister, everyone knows it." ”

"You know, why?" He reconnected to her beautiful little face, his eyes burning, as if he wanted to see through her heart.

"Your Highness, I am the child of the prime minister, the child of the fourth lady, don't you hate me?"

"Why should I hate you?" Feng Xiuyun smiled, and her beautiful thin lips outlined a trace of helplessness, "I hate, I hate the prime minister, I hate the concubine, I hate the light guard, and I even hate the emperor, but I love you." ”

hugged the little one into his arms, Feng Xiuyun's voice was soft, "I am the emperor's son, and I have always been domineering." speculates on people's hearts every day, and has lost himself a long time ago.

I'm afraid of losing you, so I'm desperate to snatch you around. Seeing that King Huai interceded for you, he was too angry to do such a ridiculous thing. I shouldn't have hurt you like that, watching you have a cold attack, seeing how much you hurt badly, I want to hurt you like an ordinary husband.

Xiaoxi, I like you, I've liked you since I was a child, I love you, be by my side, stop hating me, okay? ”

Her body trembled slightly, sobbing suppressedly, and the hand that tugged at his cuff tightened more and more, as if she was afraid that he would leave as soon as she relaxed. He smiled beautifully, gently picked up her little face, kissed her red lips, lips and teeth were close to each other, he affectionately rolled up her small tongue, only felt that the corners of the lips were slightly itchy, with a hint of warmth, salty and moist, washed away the depression of the two.

Feng Xiuyun lingered for a long time before she reluctantly left her delicate lips, her eyes were full of reluctance, looking at her pink cheeks, gently rubbing them for a while, before she put a kiss on her forehead, "Sleep." ”

"Xiuyun." She looked at him with a smile on her face, her voice soft and glutinous, "Is that position important to you?" ”

"It's important." He sat down closer, took her little hand, and said firmly, "Very important. ”

"Even if there will be a lot of sacrifices on this road, you are determined to win?"

"This road is already full of thorns, every step is like a sword, that position is too high, it takes many people's lives to be able to reach it, and every step is a sacrifice. It's too difficult, too bloody, so you don't care, just obediently be by Brother Xiuyun's side, huh? ”

Diexi opened her mouth, avoiding his gaze, and whispered, "What if it's the prime minister who stands in front of you?" ”

"Xiaoxi, you have to remember that all the means are just different positions, there is no right or wrong, there is no winning or losing on this road, only results."

Diexi is anxious, she doesn't want anyone to die anymore, don't see anyone die in front of her again, she has seen enough death, enough blood. She got him, and she also wanted to be thoughtful about the prime minister, she didn't want to come back and bid farewell to her father.

"So what if I don't want anyone to die anymore? You can't ......."

Feng Xiuyun gently pressed her lips and shook her head, "Those who walk on this road only have thousands of cliffs behind them, and there is no way back, so everyone is trying their best." It's just that the political views are different, but no one regrets it. ”

He hugged her tenderly and coaxed his beloved, "Brother Xiuyun won't let you be hurt a little, so Xiaoxi just needs to love Brother Xiuyun with peace of mind, huh?" ”

Seeing that he was about to leave again, Diexi blurted out to keep him, "Tonight, won't you stay?" ”

He shook his head, "I don't want you to remember the first time in the future on such a sad day. ”

Diexi was a little disappointed, and pursed her lips slightly, "Then why did you go to the Xia family that night?" ”

He delighted with her jealousy and gave her a satisfying kiss, "because the night was worse." ”
