"Starling, are you here?" When King Hao saw him, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Starling, my father doesn't see us, please go in and help my mother and concubine plead!" ”

Princess Hao was also hungry, and said: "Starling, the concubine and the eighth sister-in-law are also friends, please beg the starling to intercede for my mother." ”

Yuan Mohua was silent about this, but when he looked closely, his eyes were full of coldness and contempt.

Huo Jingxiao said: "Tenth brother, the palace is powerless. You also know that my father can endure everything, but it involves the sixth brother, alas...... That was simply touching the scales of my father's back. ”

When King Hao heard this, he was speechless. The frightened face of my father came to mind: "I don't believe it, I still don't believe it." Jing Hao! Listen to me, don't discuss this matter with any minister! Then give me a decree to summon the prince back to Beijing! I want to see him! I want to see Jingcheng!! ”

Yes, it can be seen how much that son weighs in his heart.

"Lord Yuan." Huo Jingxiao looked at Yuan Mohua and spoke slowly.

Yuan Mohua knelt upright, facing the Emperor Phoenix Palace, without moving, and said, "What does His Royal Highness King Cheng command?" ”

Huo Jingxiao said: "Lord Yuan is deeply hidden, and he knows too many things in his heart. If there are some things that you can't suppress in your heart, when you want to rush out, you should think about your nephew. Well, that's it. ”

After that, Huo Jingxiao walked up to the steps in front of the Emperor Phoenix Palace, and the slender figure climbed up step by step, beyond the reach of the eyes.

Seeing that he was gone, King Hao immediately turned his face back and asked, "Uncle! What do the words of starling mean? What does my uncle know? Why do I listen to the starling's meaning, as if I am reminding my uncle of something, and it seems like I am threatening my uncle something? ”

Yuan Mohua's eyes were dull, and he half-lowered his eyes: "Hao'er, don't ask anything, in short, it has nothing to do with you." ”

"Uncle!!" King Hao was obviously trapped by this cloud of fog and was about to collapse, and said earnestly: "Uncle, you know something, can you tell me?" Why are you and your mother like this! Everyone is clearly fine, but in the blink of an eye, the mother suddenly suffered this catastrophe, and the uncle became mysterious, what did you hide from me? I'm going crazy with you! ”

Yuan Mohua got up, patted the hem of his clothes heavily, and said in a hurry: "Don't ask!" With that, he grabbed King Hao's collar and pulled him up, pushed him in front of the Emperor Huang Palace, and said, "Go and beg your father!" Let's see Concubine De for the last time! ”

"The most ...... The last side? King Hao muttered in a daze, as if he couldn't accept such words for a while.

Yuan Mohua said in a deep voice: "Don't be stunned! It's dusk, and I can't find a way to live, so I go to see off the people who are about to die! ”

"Dead end...... King Hao is like a red-eyed rabbit, lost his soul and slowly ascended the steps.

……

In the Deyan Palace, the hall was full of silence, as if the dead air had arrived in advance, and the atmosphere was uncomfortable.

Concubine De was like a puppet, sitting in front of the window for a long time without moving. Her hairpins were removed, her gorgeous clothes were stripped off, and she was snow-white and unstained. The black hair hung down long, without the decoration and disguise of the golden hairpin, and at this time I could see that her black hair had been mixed with strands of silver. She stared straight at the clusters of spring flowers in the flower garden outside the window, her eyes did not blink at all, like two dry wells, empty and hopeless.

Taking a look at such a concubine, people suddenly realized that after she took off her golden hairpin dress and washed off her delicate makeup, she was obviously an old-fashioned forty-year-old woman.

In the silent dormitory, there was a sudden sound of soft and chaotic footsteps. Concubine De finally retracted her gaze and looked at it, and this time, there were fluctuations in her dry eyes.

Yuan Mohua and King Hao finally begged Emperor Qian's message to see her off on her last journey.

The numbers are relative, and they are all speechless and choked. King Hao and his wife greeted him, and the mother and son hugged and cried without saying a word. Yuan Mohua's eyes were red from crying, and he turned his face away.

Life and death, the words of send-off, the words of advice, accompanied by rolling tears, the past is the same, and it is well known that it does not need to be detailed.

In the end, King Hao and his wife knelt on the ground, knocked three songs, and were repeatedly persuaded by Concubine De to leave.

The footsteps faded away, and the dead silence returned to the temple.

"Mohua."

Yuan Mohua sighed lightly, slowly turned to her with tears, and spit out two words with difficulty: "Sister......"

Concubine De took a few steps closer, and said with hatred in her eyes: "Huo Jingxiao, that brute just threatened you?" ”

Yuan Mohua said: "It's not a threat, it's just a reminder that some things will be forgotten after the past." ”

Concubine De scolded angrily: "Brute!! That's a brute!! ”

Yuan Mohua slowly looked out the window and sighed: "It was my sister who chose it herself, and it was my sister who wanted to be with that beast, regardless of my dissuasion." As he spoke, he let out a deep sigh and said, "Many things don't work at all!" Half a year ago, King Cheng found his sister alliance and asked my sister to persuade Lu Yan to come forward to testify against Donggong and Mrs. Yao, not to mention that Lu Yan resolutely refused, even my brother and I also despised it! I also persuaded my sister many times, don't move such crooked thoughts! Don't be with the king, that's simply a tiger skin! ”

He stared at her eyes and said, "But what about my sister?" Seeing that he couldn't convince me and Lu Yan, he took another risky move, and asked Princess Hao to cooperate with King Cheng and his wife to catch the adulterer, and that night, Princess Hao couldn't escape a bitter plan, but she was assassinated and injured, and she had a miscarriage within a few days! That was Hao'er's first child and her sister's own grandson! My sister herself is weak-hearted, knowing that this is the retribution of your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for harming others, so she hid the miscarriage from the outside world, but can my sister hide her conscience? What my sister did, it is difficult to call a good mother-in-law, and it is even more difficult to call a good mother! If Hao'er lets him know the truth about his princess's injury and the truth about his miscarriage, I'm afraid it will chill his heart! ”

"My sister is going to die! Do you still blame this for this? Also, Hao'er, what does he have to chill about? I'm not doing this for his future! And Princess Hao, if she doesn't want to, my mother-in-law can't force her! But she is also willing to do it for her husband! Who wants to be cold and who wants to be resentful? Besides, I don't even know that she is pregnant, so where can I know? If I knew, how could I put her at risk? After Concubine De finished speaking, she came to him and stared at him, and said in a deep voice: "Mo Hua! I have been in the bag for half my life, and I have been carefully surviving for half my life under Jiang's hands! It was not easy for me to survive the situation that followed! I deserve to be scared by the Jiang family, and I don't dare to fight for anything even if she dies! ”

"After the queen mother and the queen mother, I always have to get one of them!! Even if I lose now, I don't regret it! Because I have argued, I have no regrets! I don't want to find out many years later, it turns out that I only need to be brave and take a few steps to succeed, but I was scared by Jiang and became a turtle with a shrunken head that does nothing! ”

Yuan Mohua said: "Sister, although it is important to honor the position, if you want to win with your life, it is better not to." ”

Concubine De said: "The word imperial power, who didn't use their lives to Bo?" Who is so easy and so easy to hook their fingers to get? Yes, in the eyes of the world, the one in the East Palace is the pride of the sky, the heart of His Majesty, and everyone sees him as infinitely beautiful and living a smooth life. But do you know that the word prince was also earned by Huo Jingcheng with his life! ”

Concubine De slowly turned her eyes to look out the window, and her eyes became far-reaching: "Eight years ago, the court and the central government were hotly discussing the matter of establishing a prince, and several princes had voices of support, and His Majesty was difficult to decide. It was that year that His Majesty inspected the army in the city tower, and finally, climbed the city wall and stood in the air. Later, a scene that frightened everyone happened! ”

"Your Majesty actually stumbled and accidentally fell from the castle tower! At that moment, everyone forgot to breathe, thinking that the moment His Majesty fell to the ground, the sky would also change! But you know what? There were so many princes present, only Huo Jingcheng went to pick up His Majesty in person! was smashed by His Majesty and vomited blood on the spot, seriously injured for a year, and almost died! ”

"Filial piety comes first! It is these five words that have achieved Huo Jingcheng's position in the East Palace, achieved his indelible reputation in his life, and achieved his irreplaceable position in the eyes of His Majesty! But who knows? How did he survive that year when he couldn't afford to be seriously injured? Who's easy? Whoever hooks the hand wants something, what's coming? ”

Yuan Mohua's heart shook when he heard this, and said: "Since the East Palace is so important in His Majesty's mind, why does my sister still have to go beyond her own strength, be with King Cheng, and delusionally want to shake the tree?" ”

Concubine De said: "No matter how important a person is, as long as he makes mistakes again and again, he will exhaust everything!" It is impossible for His Majesty to help a Adou to the throne! ”

Yuan Mohua said: "But what does my sister get now?!" ”

Concubine De was stunned for a long time, and finally lost her arrogance and muttered: "Yes, what did I get?" The skills are not as good as others, I didn't get anything, and I also pulled Princess Hao into the water, so that you can cast a mouse trap, knowing that Huo Jingxiao did evil things half a year ago, and knowing that he is now turning against me, but I can only swallow all this into my stomach and can't tell it! ”

Yuan Mohua sighed: "Yes, just now he was still reminding me that I know too many things, if I want to say what I want to do, I have to think about my nephew, I can only eat Coptis dumb." ”

"Mohua! Sister, I'm sorry for you......" Concubine De finally sat on the ground and let out a loud cry, and the woman's gentle and mournful cry echoed in the dead palace for a long time......

Outside the window, the sky is out of temperature, and the thin wind is gradually rising. On the west side of the sky, the glow was crimson, like the blood of the world, and the bright red was dazzling for a while, and then faded little by little in the setting sun, and finally was covered by darkness.

In the palace that was shrouded in dead silence, there was another sound of footsteps, and someone came with a tray.

Dove, dagger, white silk.

Choose one of them and hit the road.

Concubine De's red and swollen eyes stared at the things on the tray for a long time, and finally laughed stupidly, raised her hand to caress those terrible things one by one, and said in a faint voice: "Mo Hua, come and choose one for your sister." ”

Yuan Mohua slowly knelt down towards her, tears dripping from her red eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "What's the point of choosing things for my sister?" If he could, his brother would be willing to take those things for his sister. ”

Concubine De smiled and shook her head: "Silly words, go to heaven to reunite with my father and mother, let my sister come, my sister misses them." ”

When Yuan Mohua heard this, he shed two lines of tears.

"Mo Hua, protect Hao'er well, my sister is such a son, I must take care of my sister."

"The Brotherhood will do everything in their power to protect Hao'er."

"The career is dangerous, but also protect yourself. If my sister has a spirit in heaven, she will protect my brother and bless my son. ”
