Chapter 147: Falling Flowers Are Amorous
Chapter 147 Falling Flowers Are Amorous
"I'm in chaos!" After a while, Liu Zhaocai slowly said a sentence, Liu Qing's words were too sudden, so he couldn't accept it for a while, and said with a tired face: "You, let me think about it, I want to think about it!" He held his head and closed his eyes with a shudder.
"Your Majesty!" Liu Qing was about to speak, when suddenly Sui'er's voice sounded in the hall, and she stood up from among the concubines, "Lord Qinghe, don't force the emperor!" "Sui'er has always been as quiet as flowing water and never publicized, but today she suddenly came out of the crowd, which surprised King Qinghe. This is the first time Sui'er has spoken to him, since that time in the grove learned that Sui'er was determined to enter the palace, and then got married, this is the first time Sui'er is willing to talk to him.
But this sentence was not really said to him, but in distress for the emperor.
"Deng Guiren!" Liu Qing had to call her, but he didn't know what to say, Sui'er's eyes were smoother than his, without any temperature and emotion, as if he was just looking at a small grain of dust, which was not worth caring about at all.
Yin Li woke up from her shock, and also stood up and scolded loudly: "Bold, Deng Guiren, is this an occasion for your concubine to speak?" Get down on your knees yet! ”
Sui'er stood stubbornly, with some pride and firmness in her eyes. "Queen Mother, Sui'er just doesn't want to see Prince Qinghe persecute the emperor so much. The Queen Mother is a biological mother, or not, it is not what should be said at this time, after all, the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother of a country, right or wrong, the dead are great, and what she says at this moment is against the courtiers, people, Sui'er really can't look at it. The emperor was overly sad, and he had countless guilt for the queen mother in his heart. King Qinghe's sentence, isn't he going to force the emperor into a situation where he has no place to be ashamed? Is this what a courtier should do? Sui'er is a mere concubine, yes, but she is also the emperor's wife and a relative of the prince of Qinghe, if Sui'er doesn't speak, can anyone speak? ”
She kept looking at Liu Qing's eyes, word by word. Take your time. But the words were clear, and they entered Liu Qing's ears. He felt only a great pain in his heart, and she was telling him. She is already the emperor's person, did he break his mind? Every word she says is helping the emperor, and even helping the queen mother, what's wrong with her? Do you hate yourself so much?
Wang Yin'er looked at Sui'er gratefully. She really came according to the words of the Queen Mother, this woman. Some extraordinary courage and wisdom, as well as character that others do not have, so he said: "Your Majesty, go to the apse and take a rest." The slave maid still has some things for the emperor to see. ”
Liu Zhao heard Sui'er's words just now, she was right, she was also telling him. How it should be done. However, the thin silk that Zheng Zhong received when he was a child. It reappeared in his mind, putting in front of him what he had forgotten for so many years. This thing is true, biological mother Liang Guiren, biological mother Liang Guiren, so where is the mother now, and how is she? Is it alive or dead? How to do the funeral of the Empress Dowager Dou, all of this is like a huge net wrapped in him, the more he struggles, the tighter he struggles, and the more he struggles, the more painful it is. He sighed and beckoned, Empress Dowager Dou is dead, Sui'er can be free, no one will make a fuss about a dead person again, and the discussion of this matter in the DPRK and China will be completely ended.
Sui'er saw his call, glanced at the gloomy face standing in front of her, and hesitated slightly. She came out of the crowd today, not because she wanted to be in the limelight, because she knew that even if she was not in the limelight, she would still be on the cusp of the storm, and the eyes of everyone never left her for a moment. But the emperor's pain just now, and Liu Qing's reaction after telling the truth, made her worried, and the emperor was on the verge of collapse. So she stood up without hesitation and stopped Liu Qing's further stupidity.
She nodded to Yin Li to apologize, and then left the concubines and came to Liu Zhao's side. Liu Zhao took her hand and said, "Sui'er, accompany me, let's go to the back with Aunt Yin'er to see what the Queen Mother left for me." He looked back at the ministers and concubines and said, "Chen Pet, everything here will be handed over to you, and it will be handled according to the queen mother's state funeral, and there is no need to ask for another performance." Also, Queen, all the concubines will be taken care of by you! ”
After he finished explaining, he glanced at Sui'er deeply, her hands were cold and silky, but his heart settled down in an instant, Sui'er, this moment, he had been looking forward to it for a long time.
Turn into the apse is the dormitory of the Empress Dowager Dou, the Qianyuan hall is very small, there is only one front hall, one back hall, the front hall is crowded with people at the moment, but the back hall is extremely deserted. The gray curtain is even more desolate!
Wang Yin'er came to the dressing box, opened it with the key, and took out three things from it. The first one was a broken hosta, she picked it up and handed it to Liu Zhao.
"Your Majesty, this hosta was given to the Queen Mother by the first emperor, and the Queen Mother has always regarded it as a treasure, but she broke the hosta when she entered the Qianyuan Palace. She said that this was the love affair between the emperor and her, and it must be put in her coffin. ”
Liu Zhao took it, the hairpin was extremely exquisite, but it was broken into two, he didn't speak, just handed it to Sui'er, and when he saw that she was careful to put it away, he clenched her hand again.
Wang Yin'er took out a pair of jade pendants from the box, handed them to Liu Zhao and said: "This pair of jade pendants is also given by the first emperor, it is the meaning of love with the queen mother, the queen mother said, the emperor has no one to love since he was a child, if someone is really opposite, he will give this jade pendant to whom." ”
Liu Zhao glanced at Sui'er again, and put the jade pendant into her hand, but Sui'er was still cautious. Liu Zhao said: "Aunt Yin'er, what is the third piece?" ”
Wang Yin'er sighed, "This third piece is a letter, the Queen Mother knew that her life was short, so she wrote it early, and asked the slave maid to hand it over to Your Majesty today." Your Majesty has read the letter, what to do, slaves and maids can't interfere, but the emperor, no matter what the queen mother does, will also raise the emperor to adulthood, doesn't the emperor remember how good the queen mother was to the emperor back then? She will teach you to read, write with your hand, teach you how to critique, and make you desserts herself. You still remember how she took care of you when you were sick, and how she taught you how to be a person when you were in trouble. Your Majesty, have you forgotten all this? No matter what is written in the letter, the slave and maid only ask Your Majesty, and the Queen Mother only has this one request, whether to be buried with the first emperor, it depends on the emperor, but please bury the Queen Mother next to the first emperor, okay? ”
Her words reminded Liu Zhao of a lot of past events, in those long days, although painful, but bit by bit went deep into his heart, he couldn't help but sigh and said: "Auntie, Zhao'er's character, you should know that I will not repay you!" ”
Wang Yin'er nodded and put a thin silk into Liu Zhao's hand. Sui'er said: "Your Majesty, let's wait until the Queen Mother's coffin is buried, no matter what happens, the dead are the greatest." Aunt Yin'er is right, the queen mother has the grace of nurturing the emperor, many things, outsiders don't know, but the emperor is vivid, and the memory is still fresh. Sui'er thought, the emperor is the lord of the world, he can naturally be tolerant of all things, and the falling flowers are still affectionate, let alone people? ”
Her voice was gentle and sweet, and it was a voice that no one would refuse, and Liu Zhao also surrendered. He nodded, put the thin silk into Sui'er's hand, looked at her quiet face, and said softly: "Sui'er is right, I am the lord of the world, I can tolerate anything, and I don't have to worry too much about many things." With Sui'er by my side, I feel much better. ”
He adjusted his breathing, turned his head to Wang Yin'er and said, "Aunt Yin'er, does the queen mother have anything else to explain?" ”
"No, Your Majesty, the Queen Mother will naturally be happy to see you treat Sui'er like this. Sui'er, the queen mother personally set for you back then, it seems that the queen mother's vision will not be wrong. Your kindness and love are a blessing to the palace and the country. Sui'er, thank you! She turned around and silently retreated from the dormitory, leaving this place to Liu Zhao and Sui'er.
Sui'er said to Liu Zhao: "Your Majesty, Shicai is tired of crying, let's rest first, Sui'er will also go to the front hall." ”
Liu Zhao pulled her into his arms and leaned his head on one of her green silks, with unprecedented satisfaction. Sui'er's face turned red, and she struggled lightly: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is in mourning, and Sui'er is unreasonable here." This sentence reminded Liu Zhao, he carefully touched Sui'er's condensed skin, sighed and said: "That's it, this is the only way." You go, after the Queen Mother is over, I will go to the West Palace. ”
Sui'er smiled slightly and withdrew from the apse. Liu Zhao sat on the couch, looking at everything in the hall, everything looked old, he knew that the queen mother loved to be clean, and although the things were old, they were still spotless. There seemed to be her residual warmth on the couch, and the distant past came to her heart like a tide. There is a guqin on the desk, and a painting is hung on the wall, which seems to be the handwriting of the Empress Dowager Dou, and everything has traces of the Empress Dowager Dou, but she is gone.
His heart was sour, and he burst into tears. What Liu Qing said today, he has long been mentally prepared, not that he really forgot everything, but he didn't want to mention it. He was reluctant to have a little affection with the Empress Dowager Dou, and he was angry again, and he only put her under house arrest, but he didn't kill her, not that he really didn't want to find the truth, but he was reluctant.
It's the same now, people have passed away, let her be safe when she is alive, and she will be at peace after death.
He looked at the brocade quilt of flowers and was stunned, such embroidered flowers, group of joy, is the style that the queen mother likes. She still has attachment to her father in her heart, maybe her father was also inextricably linked to her mother back then. The heat of the tears, like a burnt mark, burned faintly on the cheeks. There is a momentary emptiness in the mind, and even oneself cannot grasp it.
He stood up, walked out of the dormitory, his mind had been decided, looked at the white crowd outside the hall, the white world, and let out a long breath: "Spread my will, immediately move the Queen Mother's spiritual bed into the Jiade Palace, and everyone will go to the Jiade Hall to guard the spirit." The princes took turns to defend the system on my behalf, and Liu Shu was sick, so there was no need to go. The rest of the people were to be done according to their will. Taichang and the Taifu jointly handled the funeral of the Queen Mother, all in accordance with the etiquette when the emperor passed away. The name of the Queen Mother was drawn up by Taixue, and tomorrow morning, I will know it. Inform the first emperor's mausoleum to prepare for the funeral of the queen mother and her father. On the fifteenth day of mourning, the whole country mourned! (To be continued)
