Chapter 83: Love
"Aunt has always been thoughtful to me, thank you Aunt!" Yu Lin didn't fail to see the eyes that didn't leave Yang Molan's face when the queen spoke, Yu Lin's hands were clenched into fists in her sleeves, the smile on her face did not change, and her voice became softer. Only by steady, it will not leak out in front of the queen, only by steady, it will not, Yulin looked at Yang Molan, and then looked away, so as not to let Yang Molan be humiliated in front of the queen!
Yang Molan's heart was also turbulent, today the queen summoned Mrs. Wu into the palace and specified that she would follow her, Yang Molan felt that something must be wrong. When she saw Yulin sitting next to the queen, Yang Molan knew what was wrong. And when the queen spoke, Yang Molan understood better. There are really a lot of people in this capital. Yang Molan sighed in her heart, and her expression on her face was also calm, only by not moving her expression can she protect her daughter, instead of letting the queen catch her mistakes and make her daughter suffer!
Mrs. Wu quietly glanced at Yang Molan, and saw that Yang Molan's expression was calm, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said to the queen: "The concubine also remembers that the mother has always been very considerate to the princess!" Although the three of them looked calm, the quietly exchanged eyes did not escape the queen's eyes, and the queen said to Mrs. Wu: "I remember that Mrs. Wu treated Yulin very carefully that day, and the deceased Princess Wu also mentioned this matter in front of me many times!" ”
"This is what a concubine should do, don't dare to be praised by her mother!" Mrs. Wu was still respectful, which made the queen a little unhappy, and asked Mrs. Wu and Yang Molan to get up and give a seat before saying: "The palace is lonely, it is rare for the two of you to enter the palace, it is better to accompany me to the garden for a walk!" ”
"It's a blessing to be able to accompany the maid, the concubine!" Wu Yang and the two stood up and replied respectfully, the queen stretched out her hand, Yulin held the queen, someone had already guided the way, and the group went out of the Zhaoyang Palace to the garden.
It has been nearly a year, and there has been no snow in the past two days, and the imperial garden is a little desolate, and the queen sat down to rest after walking a few steps at will: "It's really unfortunate, there has been no snow in the past few days, otherwise there will be snow to enjoy!" ”
"There is more snow this year than in previous years, if it rains again, I'm afraid it will ......" Yulin's words were only halfway said and didn't say anything, the queen smiled: "After Yulin came out of the pavilion, it was different from before, and I knew how to care about these things." When I saw you and Mrs. Wu, I still didn't have anything to say. Those past events are just trivial things, you have a husband and a daughter at this time, are you still angry? ”
Yulin lowered her head and smiled, and looked at Mrs. Wu, who was still standing there with Yang Molan with low eyebrows, and then looked up at the queen when she heard that she was mentioned: "The princess has grown up and left the pavilion, and the concubine has done what she was entrusted with that day!" ”
When Mrs. Wu spoke, Yang Molan also quickly raised her eyes to look at the queen, and bowed her head according to etiquette, never showing a trace! It's even more boring, the queen is a little annoyed in her heart, Yulin is really her uncle's niece, the same cold-blooded and ruthless, her biological mother is in front of her, she can be indifferent!
Thinking about the queen, she spoke: "I didn't take a closer look, but if I look at it carefully, Yulin's demeanor is a little similar to Mrs. Xu!" This is the most similar place between their mother and daughter, Yang Molan only felt that her heart was about to be dug out, there was a big hole in her chest like emptiness, and her hands in her sleeves were trembling, but she still smiled and said to the queen: "I went to Zhu's Mansion to enjoy the snow that day, Mrs. Zhu also said the same, after all, my sister has been the nanny of Princess Yongle for many years, and it is inevitable that she will be contaminated!" ”
"It's new, it's the first time I've heard of it!" After the queen finished speaking lightly, a palace maid came to report: "Niangniang, Yu Jieyu asked to see Niangniang!" The queen sighed: "What the hell, doesn't she know that Princess Yongle is accompanying me to the garden?" ”
"Yu Jieyu doesn't want to say it, and the slave and maid can't go back!" The palace maid looked embarrassed, and the queen got up and said, "I'll go to see Yu Jieyu and come back soon!" Yulin sent the queen away, and when she turned back, the tears in her eyes were already clear!
Yang Molan looked at her daughter, her eyes were wet unconsciously, but she couldn't say anything at this time, no matter what the queen's purpose was, Yang Molan clearly knew that this matter must not be caught in the slightest. Yang Molan shook her head gently, Yulin already understood, Mrs. Wu sighed secretly beside her, Yulin felt a little choked in her throat, lowered her head and swallowed back her tears, and then said: "I heard that Guizhou is bitterly cold, when Mrs. Xu was in Guizhou, she must have seen countless snow scenes!" ”
"The snow in Guizhou is different from the capital, and it is not snow on the mountain, only when you hold it in your hand do you know that it is ice! The first year I went to Guizhou, Jiao'er didn't know, and said that she could go to enjoy the snow, but who knew that it was raining. Yang Molan suppressed the tumbling in her heart and tried her best to come up with words to answer!
"It's ice, I've never seen this kind of rain!" Yulin let her voice not show a little trembling, and Yang Molan had already laughed: "Princess Wanjin Jade Body, that bitter cold place, naturally you can't go!" ”
"When the princess was young, she was most afraid of the cold, and she liked the snow, and when she saw the snow, she would shout to go into the snow, I don't know if the young lady is like this now?" Mrs. Wu interjected on the side, trying to create an atmosphere of chatting, after all, at this time, outside the pavilion, in an invisible place, there must be eyes staring here!
"Xiao Shu'er is also like this, afraid of cold and loves snow!" Speaking of her daughter, Yulin's face was a little relaxed.
"Miss Liu, I've only hugged her once, or when she was full moon, I just remember that she was very similar to the princess when you were a child, and I don't know who she looks like now." Mrs. Wu's hand quietly held Yang Molan's hand, Yang Molan's hand was cold to the bone, and feeling the warmth of Mrs. Wu's palm, Yang Molan said: "Yes, this child will change his appearance when he looks good!" ”
"The older she gets, the more she looks like a colt, and the pony gets more and more proud!" The corners of Yulin's lips hooked a gentle arc, which greatly comforted Yang Molan's heart, and said: "The princess and the colt will definitely love you for a lifetime!" This is a mother's most sincere blessing for her daughter's marriage, and it can only be said at this moment, with the help of such a time.
Yulin looked at Yang Molan, looking very focused, at this moment, all the past things poured into Yulin's heart, and the words that Mrs. Wu had said were also in Yulin's ears, Yulin's heart began to feel relieved, the palms and backs of her hands were all meat, which she couldn't bear to give up, but unfortunately in this world, there is no way to have both worlds. She just did it, and it seemed the most haode choice at first! Twenty years of fine clothes and food, the days of everyone's respect, I think it is worth the company of my mother.
Yang Molan felt that she couldn't breathe anymore, and even wanted to stretch out her hands and take her daughter into her arms, instead of picking her fingernails into Mrs. Wu's palm like now, the whole person was stiff, and on the eve of the mother and daughter's parting, she looked at her daughter stupidly, and also thought about keeping her daughter by her side.
But I don't know if after doing this, my daughter will grow up and know her life experience, whether she will be resentful, after all, she can get the remarkable glory and wealth in this world. If it weren't for the creation of people, I wouldn't have zaijian to my daughter in this life!
"Between me and the horse, I don't think there will be any providence to make people, I will love him for a lifetime, thank you Mrs. Xu!" After a long time, or only a moment, Yulin spoke, and when she spoke, Yulin was relieved, the past is all over, and everything that should be forgotten is forgotten, she already has a husband and a daughter, although her father is not good at doing it, but she is in good health. As a princess, she is respected by everyone, so why bother thinking about what you can't think!
"Princess, that's good!" Yang Molan also smiled, her smile was really similar to herself, Yulin's heart flashed with such a thought, but the words that came out of her mouth were: "Miss Xu and Pan Gongzi have already made a marriage, I don't know when the marriage will be done, and I will go to have a glass of wedding wine at that time!" ”
"Originally, this brother didn't get married, and it was not good for my sister to marry first. But the nephew's marriage has never been decided, Pan Gongzi is over twenty, and the Pan family also wants to hold their grandson! It's just March 17 of the following year! ”
This time it was Mrs. Wu who answered, and the smile on Yulin's face was even more tranquil: "Remember to send me a poster when the time comes!" Yang Molan responded, the cold wind swept into the pavilion, but Yang Molan didn't feel cold, as long as her daughter's smile was always like this, what if there was more wind?
The palace maid has come to the place where the queen and Yu Jieyu are, and when she saw the palace maid shaking her head, the queen's eyebrows couldn't help frowning.
"Niangniang summoned the concubine to come over to accompany her, the concubine has been here for so long, it is time to go back, and please ask the concubine to retire!" Yu Jieyu is at a loss today, the queen summoned her to accompany her in the garden, and after saying a few words, she has been sitting here, and there is no other action, the wind is blowing and cold, it is better to go back to the palace to warm up with the queen here!
"I'm just a casual interest, you can go back!" The queen sent Yu Jieyu away, and she brought someone to Yulin's side. Seeing the queen coming, Yulin hurriedly walked out of the pavilion to greet her.
No tears, no residual sadness, nothing! The queen couldn't help but be disappointed, and chuckled at Mrs. Wu and Yang Molan: "I don't know what this peacemaker is doing, how is the relationship between you and Yulin now?" ”
"Thank you aunt for your concern, between my niece and Mrs. Wu, I have already said that those things have passed, and we will continue to communicate as usual in the future!" Yulin opened her mouth to answer, and the queen still smiled on her face: "That's good, Mrs. Wu is your nanny, and she has taken care of you for many years, so you can't do it anymore, and you don't come and go for a little thing, which makes the people in the capital look at it, how unseemly?" ”
"Niangniang's mother is the world, these are all things that concubines can't think of!" Mrs. Wu was busy slapping a sycophant, and the queen smiled happily, and said a few words, and let Wu and Yang out of the palace.
Wu Yang and the others left, Yulin also wanted to say goodbye, the queen decided to make a desperate bet, looked at Yulin with a smile and said: "Yulin remembers, when you first came back, but everywhere you shouted to find your mother, it was Mrs. Wu who hugged you and coaxed you. You can sleep peacefully, and as you get older, you forget to find your mother! ”
"Aunt said that she laughed, didn't my biological mother die long before I was full moon?"
The queen smiled: "You are also older, you should know some things, you were picked up by King Wu from outside when you were two years old!" Yulin sighed: "So what, I am also my father's beloved daughter, the princess of Yongle who was named by my uncle!" ”
"The princess recognized by the royal family, of course this can't be changed!" The queen didn't expect Yulin to answer herself like this, and a rare trace of embarrassment appeared on her face, and then she said, "Don't Yulin want to know who your biological mother is?" ”
"Auntie, I am twenty-two years old, and my daughters are two years old, and I am not the child who shouted everywhere to find my mother when I was two years old, and my aunt said such things at this time, it is inevitable that I am a little ......" Yulin bowed her head before she finished speaking, which made the queen's face begin to turn cold: "Yulin, you are no longer the child who stuck to me back then!" ”
"Auntie, has she ever had a little sincerity towards Yulin?" Since the queen said so, Yulin was also unceremoniously.
"I am naturally sincere to you!" The queen's answer made Yulin smile: "Isn't my aunt's kindness to me, her affection for me, and her consideration for me all for my uncle?" People who get things they don't deserve will be ridiculed! Queen, you haven't forgotten what you said, you said it to Yuzhi! ”
"So what? You weren't supposed to be a princess, and you even barely got the title of county lord! The queen didn't know that Yulin had known a long time ago that she was not sincere to her, and her voice was cold.
This made Yulin smile: "Queen, you are wrong, as long as my uncle thinks that you can give it to me, it is enough!" Saying that, Yulin leaned towards the queen, and her voice became a little smaller: "Even, the queen, everything you have is given by your uncle." Remember, Queen, otherwise, any of your actions will be in vain! Uncle is a person who misses the old love, as long as you keep to yourself, whether you are good or the Zhu family, glory and wealth are indispensable! ”
"Who are you to teach me?" The queen couldn't remember the last time she was told like this, how many years ago, and she couldn't help but be angry at this time.
Yulin sat up straight, with some pity in her eyes: "Queen, you are really blindfolded by your uncle's nostalgia!" Such a compassionate look with such words made the queen tremble: "Shut up, I am the queen, the mother of the world, and the ......"
"I remember you were the Queen!" Yulin stood up and saluted the queen, her movements were elegant and impeccable, and after saluting, Yulin stood there: "It is precisely because I remember that you are the queen that I respect you so much, but unfortunately the queen knows that you are the queen, but you have forgotten that you are still your uncle's subject!" Only the Son of Heaven is the master of the dynasty. Only the Son of Heaven can decide who can control the authority. Only the Son of Heaven can decide the fate of others, and as for others, even the queen, they must obey the orders of the Son of Heaven! ”
To the subjects, the queen is the king, but to the son of heaven, the queen is the minister. Between the emperor and the queen, in addition to the relationship between husband and wife, there is also the status of the monarch and the minister, which can never be changed, it depends on the heart of the Son of Heaven himself!
"I'm not a shadow, if I hadn't married into the palace, maybe I wouldn't have been subject to such restrictions!" Yulin's words hit the queen's heart, she grabbed her chest with her hand, and the feeling of not being able to hold anything appeared again, which made the queen panic and made the queen even more depressed!
"Niangniang, you are admired by everyone, you are the master of the harem, you enjoy all the women, including your attention when I salute you, and at this moment you feel that the palace restricts you, and you feel that the relationship between you and your uncle is not as loving as between ordinary couples. But you forget, there will be gains and losses, and if you gain, you will inevitably lose some! ”
"I ......" The queen began to shake her head in a panic, feeling that she was about to sit unsteadily, and after a long time she looked at Yulin: "I don't want such a little girl like you to teach me a lesson!" ”
"Mother, I didn't teach you a lesson, and I didn't forget the difference in identity between me and you! It's just a lot of things, you should have thought of it when you entered the palace, your uncle has a heart, the princess of Qin State exists in this world, it is not a secret, and no one has hidden it from you! ”
Of course I knew, but when I was young, I thought that with my beauty and identity, I could make the emperor's heart on me, and I thought that she would become the most envied woman in the world from now on. But the Son of Heaven treats himself coldly, nor is he so tender and sweet, he has given everything that should be given, the glory of his mother's family, and the status of the prince. But what he didn't want to give was what the queen wanted most, that is, among the emperors, the most important place should have its own place.
He refused to give, the more he refused to give, the more the queen wanted, and over time, the queen felt that she was about to go crazy, and the only thing she could hold on to was power. If she loses power, the queen does not know what to do.
Yulin's words reveal the fact that the queen has deliberately forgotten for a long time, that is, the power of the queen was given by the emperor. He can give it or he can take it back. In his heart, there has never been me! Tears welled up in the queen's eyes, not knowing that the emperor had walked into the pavilion, Yulin withdrew from the pavilion at the emperor's signal, until the queen opened her eyes and saw the emperor, then she stood up in a panic: "Concubine, concubine didn't know that Bixia was coming, concubine ......"
"I heard those words of yours, as well as Yulin's words!" The emperor's voice was very calm, which made the queen's heart panic, what will happen next, will the emperor be deposed? If he abolished himself, what would happen to the Zhu family, and what would happen to his son?
"I won't abolish you!" The emperor saw the empress's panic and opened his mouth to calm the empress's heart, which calmed the empress, but the emperor's second sentence made the empress's heart hang again: "I am not because of you, but because of the prince!" When it was first established, it was just because I needed a prince, a prince born to the queen who was justifiable! ”
Tears welled up in the queen's eyes again: "Bixia has never had any affection for concubines?" The Emperor looked at the Empress's aging face, the past surging like a tide, and then receding like a tide, leaving only some sighs.
The emperor let out a long sigh: "Ah Zhen, I am not without affection for you!" These words made the queen happy, and there was expectation in the eyes of the emperor, and then the emperor sat down tiredly: "But Ah Zhen, if I am not the Son of Heaven, then can you have affection for me?" ”
The emperor's rhetorical question was something the empress did not expect, and her mouth was open and a little stammered. The emperor smiled, and there was some sarcasm in his smile: "Yulin Fang's sentence has been very clear, people, you can't become greedy because you get a lot." You have received the honor of the queen, but you want me to give you the affection of an ordinary husband to a wife, sorry, I can't do it. Because you didn't do it either. Your affection for me is only because I am the Son of Heaven, and I can give you the highest honor. ”
The queen wanted to explain, but the emperor's hand raised to stop her: "Ah Zhen, don't explain, I know that kind of affection, that kind of affection, not because you are the Son of Heaven, but because I like you, so I want to be with you, nothing, I have to be with you, no matter whether others ridicule me, no matter what, I have to be with you." Ah Zhen, if I don't have authority today, would you still like to be with me? ”
The queen wanted to nod very much, but under the emperor's gaze, the queen thought about it carefully, no, she had never suffered since she was a child, and she became the queen at the age of eighteen, Mr. Princess Le'an was a prince again, how could she be with an ordinary man who had no authority and could not bring glory to herself.
"But she would, when I was with her, I was but a proton, and although I had servants to serve, there was no hope of returning home! What about her, at that time, because her mother remarried, she became a princess again, and she was the most beautiful flower on the grassland, and she was the eyes of everyone. I like her smile, but I never knew that this smile would stay for me, and I didn't know how happy she was when this smile stayed for me! ”
What a strong aiqing, sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys and women, that kind of enthusiasm can make each other burn out. Let's elope, elope to a place where no one will find us, just like Lord Thuan An. When she was in love, she once said this, and they both knew that Qingtang and Dayong would not agree to this family affair, and the only chance to be together was elopement.
If it was good to elope at that time, learn from the lord of Shun'an, sail to sea, and be a husband and wife for a long time, they will quarrel, they will be angry, and they will laugh together. There will be many, many children, and these children will be as bright as jade.
It's a pity that it can't, even if it is the fifth prince whose biological mother died early, the emperor still remembers the mission of the royal family, and maybe he can persuade his father to let him marry her. I don't know how much time has passed, and then I got the news that my father is seriously ill and returns home all night. After a series of things were done, the emperor knew that he had lost her forever, the woman who would leave everything behind and go with him.
A smile appeared on the emperor's lips, followed by a sigh, and then he said to the empress: "Look, you can't do it, and since you can't do it, why do you force me?" People, don't be too greedy! ”
"The concubine is not greedy, the concubine is worried, worried about the concubine's son!" The queen wanted to talk about the Zhu family, but when the words came to her lips, she changed her words to become the prince.
"Your son is the crown prince, the future son of the dynasty, and the master of this world. I don't mean to abolish the prince, Queen, what are you worried about? Could it be that at this time, you still have to say something to me? The emperor's tone has become calmer, which makes the queen more and more frightened, and the anger of the Son of Heaven sometimes begins with calm!
The author has something to say: I feel that this chapter can be called the emperor's aiqing.
