Chapter 40: Always the Second Brother

But the concubine never expected that after she told everything she knew, it would be worthless, Duan Nanxing did not protect her, and it didn't take long for the concubine to be killed by the killer hired by the favorite concubine, and before she died, she didn't know that the child she gave birth to was not Duan Nanxing's.

Duan Tangtang was terrified when she heard this, it turned out that the palace fight was so powerful in the period of the first emperor, she was a little lucky, fortunately she did not travel to the period of the first emperor, otherwise with her IQ, it is estimated that she would not survive more than three days in the palace.

Duan Tangtang said: "Father, how did the eldest brother know that the second brother was not born to you and the queen mother?" ”

The emperor said: "I only learned about this recently. ”

When the concubine gave birth to Duan Ruiyun, Duan Kongqing was three or four years old at that time, and he was old enough to remember.

After the concubine died, Duan Nanxing discussed with Qiang Zhenqing what to do with her and the guard's child, and was inadvertently overheard by Duan Kongqing.

"When your second brother was a child, he smiled when he saw your mother, and her heart softened with laughter, and he was not yet a month old, so your mother couldn't bear to send him away, so she stayed, claiming that it was me and her child."

At that time, Qiang Zhenqing rarely went out to show up to meet people, and those who knew that the concubine was pregnant, they also favored the concubine and the subordinates who served in the prince's palace, and the people in the palace were all gagged by Duan Nanxing and Qiang Qiqing's coercion and gali, but it was inevitable that there were some dishonest, but they were all dealt with secretly, and later the favorite concubine also fell out of favor and was beaten into the cold palace.

Duan Nanxing and Qiang Qiqing originally thought that no one knew about this matter except them, but who expected that Duan Kongqing, who was only a few years old at the time, overheard it and kept it in mind.

Because of the special period of the battle for the throne, Duan Nanxing and Qiang Qiqing have been busy with this matter, and they have no time to take care of Duan Kongqing and Duan Ruiyun, Qiang Qiqing also thinks that the two of them are children, and they can just play with each other.

If he knew that this would make the two of them like this in the future, Qiang Qiqing would not let them be alone since they were young.

Duan Tangtang listened to his father talk about the past, and unconsciously followed him to the Fengyi Palace.

"The Queen Mother."

At this time, the queen was talking and laughing with several other concubines, and when she saw the emperor and Duan Tangtang, they all got up to greet her.

"The concubines see the emperor."

The emperor bowed slightly, "I want to talk to the queen alone, so let's all go out." ”

Everyone else went out consciously, but only Duan Tangtang stood firmly in place like a nail household.

The emperor had a solemn look, and the queen felt that he had something important to say to herself, so she glanced at Duan Tangtang and issued an expulsion order, "Tang'er." ”

The emperor forgot for a while, Duan Tangtang, who he wanted to tell the queen, already knew, "It's okay, Tang'er already knows." ”

Duan Tangtang nodded vigorously in agreement, yes, that's right!

So don't drive her away, the three stinkers are still Zhuge Liang, let's discuss what to do about the second brother.

Automatically classifying yourself as a stooge, it's ......

The queen asked worriedly, "What the hell is going on?" ”

She always felt that something bad was wrong.

The emperor told her exactly what had just happened, and the queen was immediately anxious, "Then what should I do, no, I have to go to Xiaohu." ”

The queen was so anxious that she even said Duan Ruiyun's milk name, although Duan Ruiyun was not her own, people's hearts are flesh and blood, and the relationship over the years was not a fraud, she had already regarded him as her own son, this is a mother-son relationship that is deeper than blood, and even beyond blood.

The emperor grabbed her and said, "Let's go later, let him calm down." ”

"......"

"It's okay, it's going to be fine." The emperor hugged her and comforted, "He's not a child now, wait for him to stay first, I guess he doesn't want to see anyone else now." ”

The queen also hugged him back and choked up: "I knew earlier, I would have known that I would have told Xiaohu earlier, if I had told him when he was a child, he would not be so sad now." ”

"It's not your fault, good, it's fine." The emperor patted her on the back, kissed the top of her hair, and comforted her.

Although the current picture is very touching, Duan Tangtang's eyes are also red at the scene, but her heart is twisted, she feels that she is forced to stuff ten tons of dog food.

She quietly retreated, leaving the world of her father and mother.

Next, Duan Tangtang went to Duan Ruiyun's palace to find him.

As soon as he entered the door, Duan Tangtang saw Duan Ruiyun sitting in a daze, his eyes were a little swollen, and there were still a few unwiped tears on his face.

Duan Di was a little at a loss for him, and he didn't know how to comfort him.

"Second brother......" Duan Tangtang held his hand, "No matter what, you are my second brother." ”

It's the one whose eyes light up when he sees delicious food, and the simple second brother who has only food in his eyes.

Duan Ruiyun's distracted eyes gradually focused, and he lost his voice and said, "Seventh sister......"

At this time, Duan Ruiyun looked extremely fragile, Duan Tangtang couldn't help but feel distressed, and said softly: "Second brother, it's okay, the sky hasn't fallen, we're all fine." Even if you're ...... Our relationship is not fake, you are my brother, I am your sister, and you are still the child of my father and mother. ”

"But I have no blood relationship with you, no blood relationship with my father and queen mother, and no blood relationship with other brothers and sisters, I ......"

"Yes, we are not related by blood, but our relationship has crossed this level, haven't we? Blood is dispensable, and in ancient times, how many emperors' sons killed each other in order to compete for the throne, regardless of their blood relationship. We are different from them, we really regard each other as family, we will not ruthlessly turn our faces for what we fight, love is more important than blood. Duan Tangtang said with a look of grievance, "Second brother, do you want to deny my sister for the sake of this dispensable bloodline?" ”

"I'm not, I'm not, you, don't cry......"

As soon as Duan Tangtang's tears came, Duan Ruiyun was suddenly at a loss.

It was supposed to be Duan Tangtang who comforted Duan Ruiyun, but as a result, the style of painting changed, and the order of the two was reversed.

"I don't care, you can't deny me, you can say that you are still my second brother, you will always be my second brother, and you will be my second brother in this life." Duan Tangtang used it to play tricks, and his tears couldn't stop flowing, and he cried loudly.

Duan Ruiyun wiped her tears, "Okay, well, always, I will always be in this life." ”

Duan Ruiyun coaxed her for a while, and then she stopped crying.

Duan Tangtang made a fuss for a while, and now stop and think about it, it was a bit embarrassing to mess around just now, but fortunately, now there are only her and the second brother, and they simply didn't see their foreign appearances by others, otherwise they would have lost a lot of money.

"Ruiyun."

Just thinking like this, the voice of the queen mother came from behind him, and Duan Tangtang's body stiffened.

In view of the fact that he is always habitually eavesdropping on the corner of the wall, could this be heredity, I don't know if I have been seen just now.
