Chapter 431: Emperor Zhou's Thoughts
Now that the innocence of the Bai family has been returned, Bai Siyuan's identity is no longer an obscure existence, and the old people in the past will occasionally come to visit, but many people still have a wait-and-see attitude, and they will not be embarrassed or close to them.
On this day, the spring was just right, Jiang Xiaoyu and Zhao Ling accompanied Bai Siyuan to the sealed Bai Mansion, and the long-abandoned Bai Mansion showed a miserable scene of decline.
"Your Majesty has given the White Mansion back to your uncle, if your uncle wants to live in, I will immediately ask someone to repair it, I believe that in less than a month, this place will definitely be able to live again!" Zhao Ling pushed Bai Siyuan's wheelchair and said as he walked.
"No need!" Bai Siyuan sighed slightly, "Let him stay quietly here!" Although I am determined to wash away the grievances of the Bai family, I still have to go over, people always have to look ahead, and besides, I am also a person who will die soon, so I don't have to bother! ”
"Uncle, Master said that he will definitely be able to find a way, don't be so pessimistic, okay!" Jiang Xiaoyu said angrily, "If you say anything about not dying, I'm going to be angry!" ”
"Okay, don't talk about it!" Bai Siyuan returned from the good as a stream.
The sunshine of March, sprinkled on his body, seems to be extraordinarily harmonious, he may be because after completing his wish, and lost the supporting things, the whole person is a little more peaceful, but he has lost a little vitality, which is not a good symbol in Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes.
Uncle is a strong-willed person, who has been sentenced to death by the master again and again, but he has been able to break the limit again and again, just because there is a raging flame in his heart, supporting him to complete the impossible possibilities, and now this flame is gradually disappearing, and it takes an opportunity and a reason to be able to rekindle the flame!
But my uncle has fulfilled his greatest wish, what other reason can support my uncle to continue walking?
Jiang Xiaoyu thought that the peach blossoms in Taoyao Courtyard should have been scorched and opened, and it was very gratifying to be red and gorgeous, so he proposed to go to Jiangfu Taoyao Courtyard to have a look, and Bai Siyuan readily agreed.
When the three of them came to Jiangfu, Jiang Yuan was also coming back from the next dynasty, although now the three princes, mother and son have been given to death, in the eyes of others, the position of the prince belongs to the second prince when there is no objection, but because of the appearance of Bai Siyuan, he cast a shadow in his heart, and he felt that there seemed to be an ominous dark cloud floating above his head, causing him to almost dare not look at His Majesty in the court!
He also couldn't understand what was the point of obsessively dwelling on the past compared to the position of the crown prince at his fingertips, compared to being able to gain His Majesty's favor! Well, now that I have done so many struggles with the three princes and made so many meritorious deeds, I have all ruined an old case! In the history books in the future, I don't know what to say about Your Majesty! Can there be no anger in your heart? If you have to overturn the case for the Bai family, why not wait until that day when you will ascend the throne as emperor?
After hearing the next person say that the young aunt came to the door with Bai Siyuan, Jiang Yuan's face changed, and he almost dropped the teacup in his hand, what are they doing? Can't you come to seek revenge? Jiang Yuan himself can't forget it, in order not to be affected by the Bai family, he took the people of the Jiang family to arrest the Bai family who had escaped from the city, and finally left their bodies gone!
It's just that if he doesn't do that, he will inevitably be considered a fellow party of the Bai family, and it is difficult to say whether the Bai family can escape, and the Jiang family will also be ruined, he is just to protect himself, has he done anything wrong! What is there to be afraid of!
Jiang Yuan shook his spirits, went out to greet him, and saw Bai Siyuan coming from a distance, he was still faintly scared in his heart, and he looked casual on his face, hugged his fists and said: "Siyuan, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”
"Yes, Master Jiang!" Bai Siyuan smiled faintly, "I didn't mean to disturb much today, I just heard Xiaoyu say that the peach blossoms in Taoyao Courtyard are blooming, so come and take a look!" ”
"Inside, please!"
Jiang Xiaoyu pushed Bai Siyuan and said, "Father, I'll accompany my uncle, and my father will go and do his own business!" ”
Jiang Yuan also seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "That little fish takes good care of you and rescues you, and I will be out of company!" ”
Even though his uncle is now in a peaceful state, he is afraid that he will not want to see his father in his heart, and no matter what matters about the Bai family, he has failed his mother's deep affection.
"Will you hate him?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked.
"He's just making an ordinary person's choice!" Bai Siyuan said softly, "It is human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and we can't ask everyone to be saints!" What's more, no matter what, it was also his choice to protect you, if it weren't for the ten years during this period that kept you silent and no news appeared in the eyes of those people, you are afraid that you will not be able to wait for the day when the son of the world grows up enough to protect you! ”
The door of Taoyao Courtyard was opened, and the peach blossoms inside were scorching, like a glow and fire, which was very dazzling.
Bai Siyuan looked at everything in front of him with relief and sadness, as if he saw his sister once dancing under this peach tree, he smiled and pointed to a few of the trees and said, "Those trees were planted by me!" ”
A gust of wind blew, and a few petals and leaves fell on Bai Siyuan's body, he picked up a leaf, and played it gently, which was clear and elegant, pleasant to the ear.
Jiang Xiaoyu remembered that when she was a child, her mother often played a tune for her, she smiled slightly, walked under the peach tree, and danced. Her dancing jerky is naturally not as good as her mother's, but in terms of charm, I'm afraid that no one can match it.
Bai Siyuan seems to have returned to his youth, playing and dancing with his sister carefree, how wonderful that time was.
Zhao Ling looked at the woman dancing under the peach tree stupidly, like an elf, who had been in his heart since more than ten years ago and had never left. In his short life, he may have left a lot of regrets, but he still feels glad that he didn't lose her, fortunately, she has always been by his side.
It wasn't until ten o'clock at dusk that the three of them reluctantly left Taoyao Courtyard, and everything that had once turned into a cloud of smoke, but those beautiful people were still so vivid in their memories. The years they lived may be short, but the beautiful and splendid life is much more splendid than those who are flies and dogs, and it is more worthy of being remembered and praised!
The third aunt had already prepared a meal to find Jiang Xiaoyu and the three of them, the rebellion in the capital of the last Huizi, fortunately Xiaoyu took their mother and son to the Chu Wangfu to survive, she was grateful to Jiang Xiaoyu in her heart, and now she is afraid that there is nothing to do to repay her, and she will also educate her son that no matter what happens, she must stand with her sister!
Jiang Xiaoyu politely rejected the enthusiasm of the third aunt and ate at the same table with Jiang Yuan, but he was afraid that his father would not be happy, and his uncle would not be happy. Some things are understandable out of human nature, but they are very despicable out of morality.
Inside the Royal Palace.
Emperor Zhou was dealing with the piled up like a hill, and when he saw the eldest grandson entering late, he only raised his eyes slightly.
"The minister is here to confess to His Majesty!" The eldest grandson knelt down and said.
"I know about your affairs, and I can't blame you all, besides, you haven't done anything to endanger Da Zhou, and you have also made a contribution to quelling the chaos, what is the crime?" Emperor Zhou said lightly, "Since you have decided to abstain from the Five Foods, I believe that with your perseverance, there is nothing you can't do!" You are still my most trusted and trusted courtier, get up! ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Although His Majesty does not blame, the minister always feels guilty, if there is a slight mistake in his heart at that time, it will be doomed! Changsun Chi said.
"I only look at the results!" Emperor Zhou raised his eyes and said, "Is there an eyebrow on the whereabouts of the eldest grandson kite?" ”
"The minister is trying his best to search for him!" Changsun Chi said.
Emperor Zhou hesitated slightly, and said: "Slow down for the time being, there are also some old grievances between the eldest grandson kite and Bai Siyuan, leave some time for them to settle between them!" ”
"Yes!"
Emperor Zhou was silent for a moment and then said: "The last time I saw Qiwen enter the palace, according to the imperial doctor, she has been five months pregnant, since she has a marriage contract with you, and you don't dislike her, why don't you kill this wild seed?" ”
"Your Majesty!" The eldest grandson Chi hurriedly said, "The inside of Qiwen's belly is the flesh and blood of the minister!" ”
"Yours? Are you sure? ”
"Yes, inferred from time, the minister is the flesh and blood of the minister!" The eldest grandson Chi said affirmatively.
"Although Qiwen's experience has not been spread, but there are many people, and it is inevitable to gossip, you say that this is your child, others are afraid that they will not think so, you are the dignified Shenwei general of the Great Zhou, how can you let people point fingers behind your back? Qiwen is unclean and unworthy of you, I can find a good match for you, and Qiwen will make up for it! ”
"The husband dares to act boldly, how can he care about the gossip of others? Since the minister has decided to be responsible for Qiwen, no matter what happens to her, she is the minister's wife in the minister's heart, not to mention that she is pregnant with the minister's child, and the minister can't abandon it from the beginning, not to mention that the matter is not her fault at all, why is it unclean? If you want to blame, all this is to blame the minister, then the minister can't give up on her! ”
"What if I don't let you marry?" Emperor Zhou asked coldly.
"But it was His Majesty who asked me to marry Qiwen in the first place!" The eldest grandson Chi frowned, "The minister knows where His Majesty's thoughts are, but this is not a reason to sacrifice Qiwen!" The minister will marry Qiwen because the minister will take responsibility, and the minister's loyalty to His Majesty will never change because of a woman! ”
Emperor Zhou looked at Changsun Chi, a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "I know, I will still think about this matter!" After all, your filial piety period has not yet passed, and you are not in a hurry about this matter, kneel down! ”
"The minister obeys the order, and the minister retires!"
