Chapter 62: No Way Back
Since the accident of beating her youngest son, the Empress Dowager Dou was worried that she couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, and cried day and night. The old lady didn't expect things to turn out like this. Liu Wu has come to this point, and she can't escape the blame. The excessive preference of being a mother has nurtured Liu Wu's ambition.
I heard that someone took the bag and took all the blame, and the Empress Dowager Dou's hanging heart finally let go. Knowing that Wang Xin came forward to intercede for King Liang, Empress Dowager Dou was moved and secretly wrote down a credit to Wang Xin in her heart.
The emperor did not forgive King Liang, and Empress Dowager Dou could see that she was very distressed. How can the two sons be reconciled?
The eldest princess Liu came to see her, and the Empress Dowager Dou confided her thoughts to her eldest daughter.
is still a well-behaved and caring daughter.
After Liu Concubine comforted her mother, she came to Liu Qi in a hurry. "King Liang has always been filial and loyal. The rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms relied on the King of Liang to block the rebels of Wu and Chu. Now, King Liang's subordinates have committed a crime, and King Liang is so scared that he doesn't know what to do. The Queen Mother, her old man's sleep is restless. Your Majesty, tell me, do you want to see the current situation? ”
"......" Liu Qi was speechless, has it become my fault for co-authoring?
Concubine Liu looked at her younger brother and persuaded in a earnest voice: "Brother and brother, what knot can't be untied?!" ”
Liu Qi sighed lightly and was speechless. What else can I say!
The next day, Liu Qi came to Changle Palace and confessed to his mother and expressed his forgiveness for his younger brother. "The relationship between our brothers was not handled well, which made my mother sad."
。
Liu Wu heard that the emperor's brother was not pursuing himself, so he wrote diligently and wanted to come to Chang'an to see him.
Liu Qi approved. Empress Dowager Dou was not at ease, and wanted to see with her own eyes that her youngest son was well.
As in the past, Liu Qi sent the emperor's carriage and honor guard to Hanguguan to greet his younger brother. The welcome ceremony was ready, left and right, but King Liang was nowhere to be seen.
The envoys and others were anxious, and found the people brought by King Liang, and found something more serious: the people brought by King Liang did not know where King Liang had gone!
When the news reached the palace, Liu Qi panicked. How could a good big living person disappear? If there is an accident, I can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River!
Empress Dowager Dou also panicked. A terrible thought came to her mind, and the old lady wailed and cried, gritting her teeth and scolding: "The emperor killed my son!" ”
Hearing his mother's words, Liu Qiru was hit hard and hissed: "I am also your son!" I only thought about teaching him a lesson, I didn't even think about killing him! ”
Empress Dowager Dou was in tears, choked up and couldn't speak, and she couldn't hear what Liu Qi was talking about.
"My father loves King Liang Huai, and my mother loves Xiao Wu, I am the prince and the emperor, but I am still not as good as them." Liu Qi hung his head down, and there was a voice in his heart that was wailing.
The people in the palace turned on their backs.
The eldest princess Liu Concubine suddenly sent someone to pass the word: "King Liang is back." ”
Empress Dowager Dou wiped her tears and asked in surprise, "Are you back?" ”
"Where are the people?" Liu Qi also jumped up.
"The eldest princess is accompanying King Liang and is waiting at the north gate of Weiyang Palace." The visitor replied respectfully.
It turned out that Liu Wu knew that he had made a mistake and was embarrassed to enjoy preferential treatment again. After entering the customs, he quietly changed to a cloth car, took only two entourages, and hid in his sister Liu's house. Accompanied by Liu Yan, she came to the palace with an axe and a chopping board to plead guilty.
Empress Dowager Dou cried excitedly. "It's good to be back! It's good to be back! ”
Liu Qi also cried. My brother is missing by himself, indiscriminately, and I am to blame!
The two brothers reconciled.
Only Liu Qi himself knows that deep in his heart, there is something irretrievably broken.
Soon, Liu Wu also felt the change in his brother's attitude. His brother treated him no longer as affectionately as he used to, went out hunting, and never rode with him again.
Can't go back, can't go back!
It is said that the heavenly family is ruthless, but they are more tempted. In ordinary people's homes, there are often brothers fighting for a house. The royal brothers want to fight, but it is a huge country.
