Volume 2 Light and Young Fanwai 3 Scorching Qihua 2 (Luo Yinghua × Xiao Yingxuan)
【Luo Yinghua】
The queen mother said that I was born in the season when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, and "scorching their bloom" - the high expectations for me are self-evident.
Because the queen mother is not favored.
And the queen mother is not unfavored at the beginning, but ...... After the succession of his father to the throne and the arrival of Zhao Guifei and his eldest brother, everything was changed.
At that time, I was just a child, but I also knew that after my mother coaxed me and my brother to sleep, she would sit on the edge of my bed all night.
Aunt Jinluan said, among our two brothers, only my face is a little like my father's; Aunt Jinluan also said that her father's marriage to her mother was the biggest insult to her mother.
It is an insult to stay away from a woman who loves her with all her heart; tried his best to marry her back, but he didn't love her, and he didn't have a moment of sincerity, which was an insult.
The queen mother was born in Shen Chu, the birthplace of etiquette in the world, and is the noble princess Shen Chu - she is beautiful, soft and dignified, and she is a woman that princes and nobles from all over the world will compete for.
She is in this Tianqi's harem, although she is a noble queen, she is also a poor woman.
In my memory, except for the time when the emperor and queen meet on the fifteenth day of the ancestral month, the queen mother did not have the opportunity to meet him.
But the queen mother never complained, nor did she show the slightest dissatisfaction with her father in front of us.
At that time, Ah Jing was ignorant, but he had already felt the difference between his father's treatment of Zhaoyang Hall and Xingfei Palace, and he was very angry about it. And I'm ...... I can only do my best to study and practice the art of riding and archery, which I am not good at, in order to gain my father's attention.
I think that as long as I work hard and work harder, even if my eldest brother is two years older than me, I can try my best to catch up with him, surpass him, and then ...... And then what? I do not know.
I was not good at riding and archery, so I redoubled my efforts to study the governance of the country, at least I couldn't let people say that "the queen's concubine, who has been raised in the palace since childhood, is not as good as the great palace who came back from outside the palace".
At first, it was to protect the queen mother, then to protect the younger brother Ajing, and then to ...... Yao, my sister, was born.
When A-Yao was born, the sky and the earth were visionary, the rain and snow in the northwest of Tianqi for many years finally stopped, and the wasteland of the northern plains unexpectedly bloomed bright flowers, and a clearly visible clear blue light pierced the sky, falling on the Tianqi Imperial Palace, and did not disperse for a long time - as if the sun and the moon were shining together, and it was more like heaven and earth celebrating together.
Although it was not as terrifying as the lightning and thunder of more than four years ago, it also made everyone look at her differently.
Even if the respected national teacher divined a hexagram, the hexagram was displayed when Ah Yao slowly opened his eyes in his father's arms - the pupils of the newborn child were dark but clear, and he did not cry like other children, but only quietly looked at the person holding him in his arms.
“
This ——! It was the exclamation of the national teacher after carefully looking at the hexagram, and he knelt down directly at the blue light, "The princess's life, the upper can reverse the firmament, and the lower can suppress all things-"
The father was stunned by her, and after listening to the words of the national teacher, he was stunned for a long time, and then he smiled gently: "My little daughter...... In the future, it will be extraordinary. ”
And A-Yao did not live up to everyone's expectations of her, she could read and write, she could write and write poetry, and even the time for enlightenment was much faster than ordinary people.
The father and mother were overjoyed, and even allowed Ah Yao to enter the Yushu Hall early to listen to the school with us.
The year Yao was born, I was three years old, my eldest brother was four years old, and Ah Jing was two years old.
"Brother?" Every time I was thinking about it, there was always a smile from my little daughter's family, and her delicate and soft little body leaned up, with a faint fragrance—presumably she had gone to the yard to play with those flowers and plants.
That's fine.
I rubbed my temples and habitually hugged her covered body, the soft body of the little girl was so light that it seemed to have no weight - the soft place in my heart was suddenly touched, and I nodded her forehead: "Huh? What does A-Yao want to say? ”
Ah Yao's soft and glutinous soft voice sounded in her ears: "Brother-Brother Ah Jing asked someone to put a swing for me in my Canglan Hall a few days ago, and my brother went to play with me, okay?" ”
Her breath was like a blue breath, and there was a slight itch when it brushed my neck, and I immediately responded.
A-Yao cheered, slid out of my arms, and jumped straight to her Canglan Palace.
I laughed, thinking about the beautiful feeling I had just had in my arms, and walked over.
After all, he is still a child, no matter how smart and sensible he is, he is still playful by nature, and he is full of curiosity and kindness about the things around him.
Girls naturally have to grow up pampered. I thought so in my heart, not to mention that Ah Yao is so beautiful, smart and very likable.
However, nine years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the little girl who was cared for and raised by everyone has grown into a gentle but glamorous girl, and years of pampering have added to A-Yao's innate elegant temperament.
At the age of thirteen, he made a generous speech on the main hall, and was ordered to go to the rejection pass in danger, retreating from 100,000 enemies, and the world was shocked.
They said that Luo Liyao, the princess of Tianqi, is really a woman who is peerless and unparalleled in the world.
At this time, Ah Yao's still delicate face no longer had the innocent smile of her childhood, she was already like a noble and natural princess of the royal family.
The quiet A-Yao is unfamiliar to me, and what she said to Taifu is also something I am not familiar with - "The world is endless, and the inheritance of people is endless...... Dominate the world, but slowly draw it. ”
I didn't know what that meant at the time, and maybe I never understood it all my life, probably because I was born without ambition.
I just want to guard my mother, my younger siblings, and the beautiful woman who smiles and says to me, "We are husband and wife...... It's enough to talk about this life.
But whether I admit it or not, whether we want it or not, my father is in his twilight, and his future is precarious.
Ah Jing once asked me, "Big brother, do you want to ascend to the throne?" ”
I was speechless, only the inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.
Do I want to be on the throne? I do not know.
I only know that the world has been peaceful for a long time, and although the five major powers are calm on the surface, they are already surging in the dark. There is only constant conflict between the various forces, and there is a war that is about to break out, and it is bound to engulf the whole world—there is no escape, there is no escape.
But...... I still just want to keep the loved ones around me, and the loved ones who are connected to my blood, and spend this life safely.
I had never seen a woman like that before her.
I always thought that the women in the world were all the same, like Tang Jue's gentleness, Ayao's calmness, or like the elegance of the queen mother and the gentleness of Zhao Guifei......
But Xiao Yingxuan is different. My wife is different.
We had never seen each other before we lifted our hijabs, and we had only heard a few words from other people's mouths and rumors.
The young lady in the queen mother's personal photo is naturally good.
However, no matter who is good, I will try my best to treat her well and make her happy.
But Ying Xuan is like a bright light, enthusiastic and dazzling, which only makes people feel that she is too beautiful to say, and I just want to hold everything I have in front of her.
But I failed her after all.
Ying Xuan accidentally fell into the water and contracted a cold disease, and it was difficult to have children, so the queen mother made the decision to choose a concubine for me. I didn't think about it and refused, and my mind was full of the image of Yingxuan breaking into my study that day, throwing herself into my arms and crying.
Her tears were like pearls that had been torn apart, tearing at her and wringing at my heart.
Even the queen mother was amazed, because it was the first time I had the idea of disobeying her, and I took action.
But it didn't work. Whether it is my father, queen mother, or Ying Xuan, they are all persuading me to take a concubine - a person in the royal family, you must not have no heirs, and you must not have three filial pieties, and no queen is the greatest.
I took Ying Xuan's hand and watched her weigh the pros and cons for me with a decent smile, and I knew in my heart that it was not easy for her - that's it, as long as it was her, I would never be able to refuse.
It's just that the two people in Leping Hall are affectionate and affectionate, and the three of them are speechless...... Whether it is for me and Ying Xuan, or for Chu Ying, it is a disservice.
Getting along with Chu Ying always reminds me of Ying Xuan,
In addition to guilt, I had to do my best to fulfill everyone's hope that I had to have a child.
Even if I only want the child I had with Ying Xuan in my selfish heart.
This day seems to be starting to be sad.
When my father died, it was a rainy day.
The rain is dense, weaving a big net that covers everyone, reflecting everyone's complex and unpredictable hearts.
The endless sobbing sound of the concubines in the outer hall sounded extremely miserable at this moment, and Ah Jing beside him didn't say a word, until Ah Yao opened the Qianqiu box in public and the queen mother left the Yiyuan Palace, he left angrily.
And I, following the crowd, began to bow down to the new emperor - Luo Xizheng, my eldest brother.
As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't matter who it is, as long as it's not me.
I don't like the position above 10,000 people, because I feel lonely when I look at it. I don't want to be a man who has failed countless women like my father...... Luo Yinghua, only Xiao Yingxuan is by her side, and this life is enough.
So after I learned that Chu Ying was pregnant, I was a little relieved.
I already have a child, so Ying Xuan should have no reason to persuade me to go to someone else's place.
But the joy of being a father for the first time was not as strong as I imagined, and what I cared more about was the woman in front of me who was smiling and lonely.
"It's okay, we'll have our own children soon." I took her into my arms and said the vow-like words, "We are husband and wife." ”
My wife, my dear, I will always be there for you.
Even if the world is in turmoil, even if there are no eggs under the nest, we must always be together.
......
Luo Yinghua, the eldest son of Luo Zhuang Xiyan, the thirty-seventh emperor of Tianqi. Born three years before the succession of the 37th emperor, the 38th emperor was ordered to go to Kitahara Castle on the day of his succession, and his death is unknown.
Xiao Yingxuan, the daughter of the Ministry of Rites, married Luo Huanhua to the second princess on June 17, 1838, and became the princess of Hua after Luo Huanhua became the king.
It is rumored that the two have a deep love affair, and if it is not necessary, they are both in and out together, never separated.
The peach is dying, scorching its glory.
