October 17, 23rd year of Zhenguan.

Changan.

Tai Chi Palace.

Yunze Temple.

If Taizong is resurrected, I am afraid that I will no longer be able to recognize the woman in front of me, it is the Hui'er who once leaned on his arm, smiled smartly, and was kind to him.

Xu Hui, who is twenty-three years old, is already a silver thread, and his body is covered in blue and gray, outlining a thin body like paper.

Although the face is still smooth, the eyes that are already as clear as ashes reveal an old and lifeless gaze.

Xu Hui is old.

Even though she was only twenty-four years old.

She was also old, half of her body was already buried in the earth.

Even her body, which had once been delicate and graceful, was like those old people, and gradually bent up, like a cooked shrimp.

Such Xu Hui, not to mention Taizong, is Mei Niang, but I am afraid that I will not be able to recognize it again.

Therefore, when Wen Niang looked at it, her heart ached-

She should have been in the prime of life!

That's how it should be!

Therefore, when she heard the news, Wen Niang told Ryan without hesitation:

"I have to let my mother know!

Maybe...... Maybe......

She can come back to life! ”

……

Wen Niang is right.

When Xu Hui heard her return, Xu Hui's dead eyes rekindled again:

"That slut......

Did you really do that? ”

A fire of hatred burned in her eyes, and her silver teeth were about to shatter.

Wen Niang nodded and looked at Xu Hui with tears, with relief and sadness in her eyes:

The Lord also refused.

But the mother...... You know, for the eldest grandson, this result is still good.

So......

So even if the old lady is reluctant, she can't. ”

When Xu Hui heard this, his heart was like an ice blade scraping:

"But Suqin is only thirteen years old!

She......

She ......"

Gritting his teeth, Xu Hui was silent for a while.

Wen Niang sobbed slightly:

"Mother, others don't know, we know.

In the heart of the Lord today, there is only Sister Wu alone.

If the second lady enters the palace, it means that the lord remembers the old love and has more pity......

That......

That ......"

Xu Hui hated, she hated so much that she almost crushed her back teeth!

But she couldn't!

Because she knew that this would definitely not be Li Zhi's original intention, let alone Su Qin and her parents' original intention!

Xu Hui knew whose intention it was!

Know all this for what!

That's why she hates!

Boundless hatred!

……

"Wen Niang is right.

Sister Xu, I really can't pity her.

Because I ...... I don't want to make Sister Wu sad, and I don't want you to be sad. ”

Li Zhi's voice suddenly sounded in the Yunze Palace.

Xu Hui looked back in amazement and looked at the young emperor who walked in from the brilliant golden red sun.

The people in the hall who were discussing this matter saw Li Zhi entering, and hurriedly knelt down one by one to greet him, and Li Zhi got up, and hurriedly ordered De'an to help Xu Hui, who was bent over and wanted to salute, and then slowly walked to the side of the case with her, divided the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, and sat opposite.

Li Zhi looked at Xu Hui, who was kneeling on the brocade mat, and sighed secretly in his heart, and then said ashamedly:

"Sister Xu, in the end, I can't live with you."

Xu Hui shook his head and said softly:

"After staying in the palace for so many years, if you can't even see through such things, then Xu Hui is really ignorant.

…… The Lord really doesn't have to blame himself, Xu Hui understands that those people are just thinking of using Xu Hui, the only sister, to hijack Xu Hui to help him, or no matter how bad it is, when Xu Hui can't go along with his wishes, he will just use his sister to coerce him.

In fact, it is the Lord who is really suffering - caught in the midst of us, and the Lord is in a dilemma. ”

Li Zhi's gaze was slightly hot:

"After so many years, Sister Xu has always loved me so much......

But I ......

But I can't do anything for Sister Xu. ”

Li Zhi was gloomy.

Hearing Li Zhi put down his honorific title, his tone was as ordinary as ordinary, Xu Hui's heart warmed, and he smiled lightly and said with tears:

"Yes, after so many years, the Lord is still the kind King of Jin back then, and he hasn't changed at all.

You don't have to come in person at such a moment......

And presumably what the Lord wants to see the most at this moment is Mei Niang.

――Speaking of Mei Niang, does she know about this? ”

Li Zhi nodded silently:

"I told Ryan to ask her -- she had more ways than I could do about these things.

Sister Xu doesn't have to worry, we can always set up a way to keep Sister Xu from this crime. ”

Xu Hui thought about it, but shook his head and said:

"I'm afraid I can't do anything.

Lord, right now, whether it is the eldest grandson Taiwei or the crown princess of the East Palace, they are all iron-hearted elements to enter the palace......

This matter is a foregone conclusion and must not be changed.

In fact, thinking about it on the other side, this is also a good thing.

After all, with me by my side and the Lord taking care of her, she will never be aggrieved.

Moreover, she is still young now, that is, the Lord is unfortunate......"

She looked at Li Zhi, and Li Zhi looked at Xu Hui helplessly but firmly:

"Sister Xu, after all these years, you should know my thoughts about Mei Niang the best......

Don't say that today you don't want me to treat her like an ordinary concubine, even if you beg me to accept her as a concubine today, I can't. ”

Xu Hui sighed lightly, nodded and said:

"Mei Niang also had an idea at the beginning, if it was the tenth anniversary of Empress Wende's death, and there was still no result, she would take advantage of the emperor's big palace people to leave the palace together.

But she was only a five-grade talent at that time, and if she was serious, she couldn't even be counted as a side concubine, she could only be an internal officer.

But Suqin was now called Jieyu as soon as she came up......

I'm afraid that the Lord will not be able to leave the palace.

At that time, I have to ask the lord to set up a method, think of some reason to degrade her title, and then retire from the palace. ”

Li Zhi frowned and said:

"Sister Xu's words are not right.

Not to mention my sister's affection for so many years, under the difficulties and calculations of my father and concubines, she has tried her best to protect me, cherish me, and take care of me growing up......

It is for the sake of An Ning (Princess Jinyang) that she was taken care of so much by her sister before her death, and when she was dying, she repeatedly begged me to take care of my sister's affection, and I couldn't let Xu Xiaomei suffer such grievances.

This is not a good practice. ”

Xu Hui knew that Li Zhi was like this, but he was thinking about the reputation of the Xu family. Although I was grateful, I said:

"The Lord treats the Xu family like this, and Xu Hui dies without regrets.

But Lord, if not, is there any other way? ”

Li Zhi nodded and said:

"It's here to discuss this matter with Sister Xu:

Since this is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed, I think it may not be so.

In the face of outsiders, I naturally accepted Sister Xu into the palace as Jieyu, and I would take care of her like other concubines.

But a few of us, especially Sister Xu herself, must know that sooner or later, she will leave the palace.

So......

So as soon as you enter the palace, Sister Xu, if Sister Xu is sick, it is the best.

Sister Xu, do you remember Venizi? ”

Xu Hui was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood:

"The Lord means......

Want to fake your death and change your name in the future and send Suqin out of the palace? ”

Li Zhi nodded and said gloomily:

It's just that this inevitably wronged Sister Xu.

But Sister Xu rest assured, if Sister Xu refuses, I will change Sister Xu's way when the time comes.

Speaking of which, I want to ask Sister Xu, is Sister Xu interested in someone? ”
