Chapter 90: Variables
"Your Highness, this peony is really good." Bingyu casually folded a branch and inserted it in her hair, and Han Sheng glanced at the flower with pity.
"Flowers bloom just to bloom, so why bother with them." Hearing a slight displeasure, she took the flower down and placed it in her hand. The slender fingertips touched the weak petals, "It's a pity, but if there is no one to enjoy it in the garden, it is better to make hairpin flowers for people to love." ”
"That's a special thing, do you want to make this branch flower or hairpin?" Han Sheng asked with a smile.
"The concubine doesn't want to be this flower, she just wants to be her husband's sweetheart." She smiled, the flowers in the garden were gone. looked at the person opposite with affection, listening to the sound of the wind, it seemed to be a love story. Han Sheng was a little stunned and at a loss, he looked up at the man, and another face appeared in his heart.
She's not her. I suddenly missed that person, and I don't know how good she is, without her own noise, will she be lonely?
Bingyu looked at him dumbfounded, not knowing whether to call him, her face was ashamed and annoyed, "Husband, let's go back, you see this day, it's about to rain." ”
She called softly, Han Sheng strode forward, she tiptoed quickly after her, he suddenly looked back at her, "Don't be tempted, this is the Prince's Mansion." If I can marry you, I can destroy you. ”
She stopped, looking at the man in disbelief. Does he know it all? What is that self.
"But what I like is you, you have to believe that I won't hurt you." She murmured weakly, Han Sheng turned a deaf ear, he shook his head a little annoyed, somehow the words just now seemed to be engraved in his mind, lingering. He suppressed his terrible thoughts, went to the training ground, and galloped out of the mansion, and the wanton wind blew, bringing a hint of pleasure.
As soon as he dismounted, he saw Kaoru waiting beside him, and walked over.
"But what's the matter?"
"I heard that the Empress Dowager Chenguo is critically ill, can you inform Your Majesty?"
Han Sheng raised an eyebrow. "What does it have to do with him, you can do your thing with peace of mind, and I will handle this matter myself."
Be critically ill? The woman deserved to die, he thought. He went to the training ground, "You go and check on this, I think something is strange." ”
"Yes." Kaoru left the training ground and went to Chenguo to investigate.
Above the court of the smoke capital, Pei Nanli was exhausted, "All the Qing family are flat, can you have something to do today?" ”
"The old minister heard that the Queen Mother was sick, and Your Majesty should not work too hard. I wish the Queen Mother a speedy recovery. ”
The prime minister led the crowd to kneel and pray for blessings, and Nanli twisted his eyebrows, "Get up." I will take good care of my mother. ”
"I heard about the turmoil in the Northern Regions, what do you think of Ziyi?"
"The minister thinks that the situation in the northern region is complicated, and he heard that it is only local turmoil. I think it is a family dispute, if His Majesty is properly appeased, it will be able to calm the chaos. It will not cause trouble. ”
Chen Ziyi said calmly.
"Who they think they are. Relying on their qualifications to run rampant, I thought that it would be safer to take this opportunity to cut their wings, what do the Qing family think? ”
"Your Majesty, no. The affairs of the family are complicated, not overnight, and the only way to appease the current situation is to appease. If it is not properly disposed of, the northern region will be destroyed. ”
Situ Jun objected, and he resolutely stood in the hall and spoke out.
Chen Ziyi echoed, "Your Majesty can slowly figure it out, my vitality has not recovered, and it is really not appropriate to make a big move." ”
A court meeting was divided into their own opinions, and they broke up unhappily, and both of them saw the shock in each other's eyes, but a northern region made the ministers panic so much, and they must be inseparable.
Nanli had already left the court at this moment, and Chen Ziyi then entered the imperial garden.
"Your Majesty, everyone now has their own ghosts, and I don't know how deep they wade into the waters of the Northern Regions. We must not act rashly, otherwise it is easy to fall into passivity. Chen Ziyi admonished, he knew how angry the people in front of him were when they heard about the turmoil in the Northern Regions, there have been frequent wars in recent years, the treasury is empty, and the Northern Regions are in chaos, which is even more difficult to control.
"When did the Northern Regions become chaotic?"
Chen Ziyi unexpectedly asked, when was the Northern Regions chaotic? After he thought that it should be that incident, there were reports of instability in the northern regions, political turmoil, and open and secret battles between the clans, although there had been similar situations before. It's just getting more and more intense, and it's gradually out of control.
"It should have been after the incident in the mountains, but I was tired of dealing with it at that time, so I didn't pay much attention to the northern regions, it seems that someone had premeditated, such a large-scale turmoil can not be intensified by a single contradiction. Someone must be adding fuel to the fire, but the people in the Northern Regions are all your and my cronies, so who can quietly muddy the waters there? ”
After thinking about it, Chen Ziyi still couldn't find the existence of that person. The Northern Regions have always been under their control. Therefore, they didn't pay much attention to the Northern Regions, on the contrary, they paid more attention to Snow Country and Cangyun Pavilion.
"Have you forgotten that there is another person who wants to manipulate those families with ease?" Nanli said unhurriedly.
"Him?" Chen Ziyi understood, "If he wants to, he can, but won't he be too risky?" I don't think he'll come forward in person with his caution. ”
"You're underestimating his people. In this world, there are no surprises. Nan Li changed the conversation, "Dine with me, you and I have never eaten together since we became monarchs and ministers, but I miss the past." ”
"Good. Obey the order. Chen Ziyi was happy in an instant, complaining that being an official was too restrained, not comfortable at all, and it was not as chic and free as when he was a brother in the past.
Nanli looked at him with a smile, the attendants around him had already retreated, and Chen Ziyi let himself go, regardless of the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and feasted happily.
"When you give me your cook, I can marry you."
Nanli squirted out a mouthful of wine, "The cook is a man, can you eat and have a face." ”
Chen Ziyi playfully said, "I don't have to pretend to be serious here, I'm not a serious person, right?" ”
"You, you obviously have a good mind, but you want to pretend to be a gentleman, if it weren't for me, you would still be a scoundrel." Nan Li laughed and scolded.
"If you don't drag me into these troubled waters, I should be alive." Chen Ziyi was indignant, but Nanli did not hide his smile.
"You have entered all the places, naturally there is no way out," he smiled, and said with a straight face, "If there is something in the Northern Regions, you are duty-bound." ”
"Me again?" Chen Ziyi had a feeling that she had been deceived. He misses his light fur and fast horse, but the reality has given him a hard time.
Nan Li's errand to him. It's always thrilling, and he's used to it.
After drinking the wine, his eyes lit up, "I have to say it again." ”
"Today's meal is appetizing, and I asked the cook to make it." Nanli Wen smiled.
"Are you sure you're not buying people's hearts?"
"It's a good thing." Nanli looked at the person in front of him, and since Su Yu left, he regarded him as his younger brother. The relationship between the two of them is better than that of confidants, and with him being noisy, he will not be lonely. I don't think about anything ethereal.
"What are you stunned about?" Chen Ziyi saw that he didn't speak for a long time, and couldn't help but break the silence.
"It's nothing, I'm afraid you won't be quiet for long."
"You don't have to keep reminding me." Chen Ziyi looked helpless. "Once on your ship, there's no turning back."
"I think you're happy." Nanli said with a smile.
"You ......." Chen Ziyi silently reminded herself to be gentle and modest, and smiled shyly.
"It's time for me to go, I'm sorry for a long time, please be more involved." Chen Ziyi disappeared in a blink of an eye, looking so stormy, not as calm and calm as the court, but like a child.
He sometimes envies Chen Ziyi, he can live in various ways, as long as he is happy, he will do whatever he wants, and as a king, he has too many last resorts.
Between us, it is really difficult to decide who will win and who will lose.
The palace maid hurried over. It seemed that he was very frightened, and his voice was still trembling.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is no longer good, you can go and take a look."
Nanli Huo Ran got up, and almost fell down because he tripped over the belt too hard.
"Didn't the imperial doctor say that the queen mother is in good health, how can this be?"
He hurried to the queen mother's bedroom, the anxiety between his eyebrows and eyes could not be hidden, and there were people saluting along the way, and he did not see it until he entered the palace gate and saw the dying woman in the palace. The years can't be hidden, her appearance is already a little old, and only a shallow charm remains, representing her former appearance.
"Emperor, you're here."
His nose was a little astringent, and he took the woman's hand, which was not as smooth as before, "Queen Mother," he turned to look at the Imperial Doctor, "what did I raise you for?" Even the Queen Mother's illness can't be diagnosed, a bunch of waste. ”
"Your Majesty's anger is a dereliction of duty on the part of your ministers." The three imperial doctors knelt down tremblingly, not daring to look up at the sky.
"Well, they did their best. Let them wait outside the palace. With a flick of the Queen Mother's hand, the three of them retreated as if they had been pardoned.
"You guys go down too, I'll talk to the emperor alone for a while."
The maid also withdrew, and only two remained.
"Queen Mother, you can't regret your decision, and it's too late to regret it now."
"The queen mother is old, and her wish is only that, you can follow me, I know that I have not fulfilled my responsibility as a mother, you hate me and hate me, I know it, but I can't ask for your forgiveness, this time I left, and I have nothing to do with it again."
She reluctantly looked at Nan Li's face carefully, he and that person were only three or four points similar, but they were more like herself. It's just that she is too strict with him, a rare kindness, his life has changed because of herself, but she can't do anything. Now that I'm leaving, I regret that I was so stingy with love.
"It doesn't matter if I forgive or not, you never treat me as anything in your heart, all you care about is a him, revenge is for him, life and death are also for him."
Nanli smiled coldly, "It's late at night, it's time for the sons to leave, you ...... the queen mother." ”
She suddenly felt a pain in her heart, her whole person was distorted, she let out a miserable scream in pain, and fell to the ground unconscious, Nanli suddenly panicked, "Imperial Doctor, Imperial Doctor." ”
The imperial doctor outside the door came in in a panic to probe the pulse, and this probe was half cold.
"Your Majesty, please mourn, Queen Mother"
Nanli was like a heavy blow, and a mouthful of blood gushed out from his heart, and his face was as pale as paper.
"Your Majesty, please take care of the dragon's body."
Nan Li glanced at the woman lying quietly on the bed, the hideousness on her face had retreated, calm and peaceful, "There is a message in the palace, the Queen Mother has collapsed." ”
