Chapter 623: A Bright Moon
readx;
There were a few chickens and ducks in the yard leisurely foraging everywhere, the woman came out of the yard, opened the wood door, and walked outside, there was a vegetable garden outside the door, although it was winter, but there was no winter here, and everywhere was still lush green.

Someone came out of the room immediately after, a tall man, dressed in coarse cloth clothes, with a turban of the same color tied on his head, and a handsome face, but he looked a little dark, but he was in good spirits.
"Yunduo, I saw Fleur take her out just now, saying that she was going to pick wild vegetables, and she won't be able to come back for a while."
"Brother Wang, you just spoil her, these days, she finally recognizes me and Furong, so you won't let her take medicine."
The man stepped forward and said with a smile, "This medicine is really bitter!" After speaking, looking at the bowl in Yunduo's hand, the two of them couldn't help laughing.
"Zhixuan, Zhixuan, what do you think Furong and I found?"
Wang Zhixuan and Yun Duo heard Fang Jinyan's voice, looked in the direction of the sound, and saw a woman wearing a dress with blue flowers on a white background and a narrow jacket with a garland made of wild flowers on her head, holding a basket in her hand, which contained some wild vegetables, and behind her was a hibiscus who was similar to Yun Duo's outfit walking towards them with Fang Jinyan.
Wang Zhixuan and Yun Duo hurriedly stepped forward, and when they walked to Fang Jinyan and Furong's side, Fang Jinyan handed the basket in one hand to Yun Duo, and gently clenched the other hand and shook it in front of Wang Zhixuan's eyes.
"Guess what I found?"
Wang Zhixuan glanced at Fang Jinyan with an excited expression. First, he gently wiped the sweat from her forehead with his sleeve, and said softly: "No matter what you find, promise me not to run too hard." I sweated when I turned around, and it was time to cough again at night. ”
Fang Jinyan chuckled, and Furong pointed to Luo Dan not far away, this was the only man Leng Yi left for them except for Wang Zhixuan, because he didn't dare to keep too many people, the more people, the greater the possibility of exposure.
"Brother Luo found that there were fish in the pool not far away. Now we can eat fish. ”
Wang Zhixuan grabbed Fang Jinyan's hand and opened it to see that it was indeed a small fish with a finger length, which was bouncing in Fang Jinyan's hand.
Yun Duo smiled and said, "It's just such a fish." When you cook it, you won't even be able to see the shadow of the meat. ”
At this time, Rodin also approached, and when he heard what Yun Duo said, he smiled and said, "But isn't it." I'll go back and look for it upstream. Maybe you can still find big fish, but now the weather is too cold, and those beasts are hiding in their holes and refusing to come out, so it will be good for spring. After speaking, he gave Wang Zhixuan a look.
Wang Zhixuan whispered to Fang Jinyan: "Okay, you see your little face is frozen like this, hurry up and let Furong and Yunduo take you into the house to roast the fire, and we can eat in a while." ”
Fang Jinyan obediently let Furong lead. Yun Duo followed behind with a bowl in one hand and a basket in the other.
"What's wrong?" Wang Zhixuan asked. While looking back at Fang Jinyan, although the conditions in this valley are far inferior to the brocade clothes and jade food in the capital, but it is probably carefree, no one frames and restricts all day long, Fang Jinyan's body is actually plumper than before, last month, she just passed her sixteenth birthday, and she is more and more like a big girl.
"I just received the news from Lord Leng from the flames, the emperor stayed in Helian Mountain opposite for the past two days, saying that it was winter hunting, but probably there was still no selfishness, I heard that there would be a raindrop in Zhaoxi Village, I thought, it won't be long before the raindrops can come and join us."
The two men talked as they walked.
"The matter of the rain is in a hurry, don't come here for the time being at this time, in case the emperor asks people to follow her, wouldn't it be for the emperor to find us, you see that Jinyan is finally getting better, I don't want to give up all my efforts."
Luo Dan agreed, took out the letter written by Leng Yi to them from his sleeve and handed it to Wang Zhixuan, and then said: "And Lord Leng also said in his heart that the emperor deliberately brought Ruyi with him, this little thing's nose is very smart, it is Jinyan belt, and he is naturally very familiar with the breath on Jinyan's body, don't let Jinyan run too far during this time, in case it ......"
Wang Zhixuan smiled and said, "Think about how we got up this mountain in the first place, it is so difficult and dangerous, and we have placed traps and traps wherever we can go up the mountain, as long as there is a wind and grass, we can retreat to the cave at any time." ”
Luo Dan looked at the vegetables and melons and fruits planted by the five of them in front of him, and said with emotion: "I really don't know if Lord Leng will be amazed if he sees the situation in front of him, to be honest, I really admire the clouds, such carefulness, it was originally a run for his life, and he even carried the seeds of these vegetables and melons and fruits, and he must have been planning this matter every day." ”
Wang Zhixuan said: "Yes, this place is our home for the rest of our lives." ”
Luo Dan said: "Now it's just that Jinyan can't meet his wife and his younger brother, but after half a year, he should be able to meet." ”
Wang Zhixuan said: "The day of reunion should not be far away, let's wait and see!" ”
Rodin nodded affirmatively, and the two men stood side by side as they looked to the east, where the sun was slowly rising from the top of the mountain.
…………
The day of the emperor's pro-government has finally come.
The Empress Dowager was very happy, although all things were tortuous, but in the end they were still developing towards the result she wanted, and now, she can finally see her son officially reigning in the world, and she can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, the emperor was always depressed and did not look excited. This made the Empress Dowager very worried, and let people keep an eye on the emperor carefully and not have an accident.
However, the night before his accession to the throne, it happened.
In the afternoon of that day, they received an official ultimatum from the Liao Dynasty, claiming that the Great Song Dynasty did not have the slightest sincerity in negotiating and had been delaying the return of the old Emperor Zhao Guangyi of the Great Song Dynasty. Escort the old emperor of the Great Song Dynasty back to the court, and let the little emperor lead all the ministers to the border to greet him. At the same time, the Great Song Border Army was asked to let it go all the way. Otherwise, any conflict will be borne by Da Song.
Leng Yi received the ultimatum and immediately convened a meeting of the ruling dowagers, and the empress dowager listened to the government and discussed how to deal with it together.
These rulers were all drawn by Leng Yi, and they knew Leng Yi's mind well. They have made statements that the old emperor is now respected as the emperor, and he is no longer the emperor, and he can no longer participate in court politics. He came back this time because he wanted to use the Liao army to seize the throne, and once he seized power, he would definitely cede land and pay compensation to repay the Great Liao. So. We must not be deceived, and we must send more troops to stick to the border in case the Liao army is attacking.
The discussion lasted until the night, Leng Yi didn't speak, he frowned, thinking about what to do, and at this moment. A guard hurriedly came in and knelt down to report: "The Empress Dowager of Qiqi." Oh no, the emperor ......"
The Empress Dowager Hua Rui was taken aback and said urgently: "What's wrong with the emperor?" ”
"The emperor shaved his own hair, and he was clamoring to leave the palace and go to Xiangguo Temple to become a monk! Where is it now? Please show the Empress Dowager. ”
Hua Rui was so angry that she trembled, and said urgently: "I'm really angry, what kind of trouble is he doing?" Let's go and see! ”
A group of palace maids hurriedly came in to support the stamens, and hurriedly walked out, Leng Yi and a few Zaizhi followed closely behind, and went straight to the Dongbian Gate.
Sure enough, from a distance, I saw the emperor with a bare head, wearing a robe, and holding a ring knife in his hand, slashing in the air, letting the guards in front of him get out of the way. Several guards were already injured, and they were dripping with blood, but they didn't dare to get out of the way, and they just begged the emperor to spare their lives.
"Stop!" Hua Rui shouted in a sharp voice, "Your Majesty, have you gone crazy? What the? What's going on? ”
The emperor turned around and looked at the Empress Dowager Hua Rui sadly: "Imperial grandmother, I don't want to be the emperor anymore, Jinyan is dead, what am I still alive for?" It's just a walking corpse! I'm in this palace, it's like in a dungeon, my heart is no longer there, this mortal world no longer belongs to me, let me go, wherever I go, drift with the wind, perhaps, then I can get a trace of peace. ”
Seeing his expression, Hua Rui knew that he was not joking, and cried and begged: "Emperor, you will ascend the throne tomorrow, the Liao Dynasty is already on the border, how can you still become a monk at this urgent stall?" If nothing else, you also have to think about our Zhao family! ”
The emperor shook his head gloomily: "My heart is already dead, I died with Jinyan, where do I still have the heart to think about this?" Jiangshan Sheji, there is an uncle, there is a Yang family general, I am not afraid of anything, I still do my own thing, let me go! Otherwise, it's forcing me to die! ”
"No way!" Hua Rui cried out heartbreakingly, "Emperor, if you want to die, the imperial grandmother will die with you!" Even if you die, you will be the emperor! ”
"Well, I actually died a long time ago, when I knew that Jin Yan was not alive, I was already dead, and now I will die again, and I will die here......" The emperor put the ring knife in his hand across his neck, and smiled sadly at Leng Yi: "Uncle, this time you are too far away from me, you can't stop me......"
After that, the ring knife is wiped horizontally towards the neck!
"The Emperor ......!" The stamen wailed miserably and threw herself into a frenzy. But it was too late, and the emperor's neck was splashed with blood!
However, the ring knife only cut into his neck for half an inch, and then stopped,—— was tightly pinched by two fingers!
Belonging to these two fingers was one of the Ouchi guards standing in front of him, an old man in a guard's costume, who was smiling and staring at the emperor.
"Let it go!" The emperor flew up with a kick that hit the old guard's lower abdomen, but the old guard didn't dodge, and didn't even frown, as if he had kicked someone else. The Emperor was shocked and drew his sword with all his might, but it seemed to be cast between the two fingers of the old guard.
He wanted to move again, but Leng Yi had already flown to his side, and grabbed the ring knife as well.
At the moment when he grabbed the ring knife, his body shook violently, and he stared at the old guard in surprise and joy: "...... are you?" Uncle Huang!? Wing King? ”
The old guard laughed, removed the guard hat on his head, and revealed his old bun: "That's right, it's me!" ”
This person is Zhao Hong, the winged king who has already returned to the mountains and forests! That is, Bai Hong's biological father, the uncle of Emperor Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Guangyi! I didn't expect him to come back unconsciously.
Hua Rui didn't care about anything else, pounced over, hugged the emperor tightly, and cried into a tearful person.
Zhao Hongrust said: "Actually, I've been in the palace for half a year, but I just didn't let you find out." ”
"Why is Grandpa hiding in the palace and not telling us?"
"For him!" Zhao Hongrust pointed to the emperor, "Half a year ago, I got the news by chance, saying that this idiot was trapped by love, and he was afraid that something would happen, so he came back, and when I saw him, I saw that he was tired of the mortal dust and had no heart to lead the country, I was thinking, I am also old, and I also need a disciple to inherit my mantle, so ah, I have been following him to observe, today's things have explained everything, this child is not the material to be the emperor, he is the emperor, it is not a good thing for our Great Song Dynasty!" Let him come with me! ”
Hua Rui didn't expect that the emperor's uncle was coming, and he was holding the emperor in order to take away his grandson: "No!" Death is not enough! ”
The emperor's neck was dripping with blood, and he said sadly: "Imperial grandmother, what the emperor's uncle said is right, my heart is really dead, I don't want to be the emperor, and I can't be the emperor, let me be free, let me live in the mountains and forests, and talk about my worries and ......"
"Emperor's ......," Stamen choked.
"If you don't want to, I will still die in the future, you can keep me for a while, you can't keep me for a lifetime, you don't want to see me die so early, right?"
"The Emperor's ......"
"Let it go, let me go, with a living dead, what is there to be nostalgic for?"
Leng Yi sighed and said, "Since the emperor's uncle said that his heart is dead and he is no longer a mortal, then, the empress dowager, don't be reluctant." ”
Hua Rui hung her arms weakly, and she looked helplessly at the emperor, letting the old tears continue to flow.
Zhao Hongrust grabbed the emperor's arm and chanted in a long voice: "In and out of the clouds, it is too empty, and the truth of Yuanlai is spotless." - Let's go! ”
Immediately, he took the emperor's hand and rose up, like a void walk, crossed the high imperial wall, and disappeared into the night!
On the horizon, a bright moon disappeared lonely into the faint clouds.
