Chapter 344: Morning Rising
He Qi's words aroused Cheng Jinrong's deep hidden thoughts.
This night, Cheng Jinrong lay on the bed, his thoughts fluctuated and turned over and over. I don't know when I barely fell asleep. Then, she had a nightmare.
The sixth prince in the dream has grown taller and taller, and his face has become more and more handsome, which is exactly what he looked like when he was thirteen years old in his previous life.
His face was pale, his eyes were dim, and he lay on the bed in despair and helplessness, with no attendant by his side. His mouth moved, as if calling out to his mother, and then he closed his eyes and never woke up.
Yuanchen!
Cheng Jinrong woke up from the nightmare, and the corners of his eyes were slightly cold.
She sat up straight and wiped the tears from her eyes with the back of her hand. When I opened my eyes and looked out the window, the sky was already a touch of fish white.
Cheng Jinrong exhaled deeply, swept away the chaotic thoughts in his heart, got up and dressed and washed. The little palace maid who was waiting brought breakfast, Cheng Jinrong had a poor appetite, and ate a few bites at random, then put down his chopsticks and got up to go to the Son of Heaven's palace on duty.
Coincidentally, when I went to the eaves of the corridor outside the dormitory, I happened to meet the six princes who came to ask for peace.
"Cousin Rong," the sixth prince smiled happily, his voice was also very brisk, and a pair of clear black eyes shone brightly: "Didn't you sleep well last night?" The complexion doesn't seem to look very good. ”
Cheng Jinrong stopped and responded with a smile: "Thank you Your Highness for your concern, my body is very good." I just had a nightmare last night and didn't sleep very well. ”
The Sixth Prince also stopped and smiled clearly: "Nightmares do affect people's moods. ”
Cheng Jinrong looked at the six princes and asked softly, "Does Your Highness also have nightmares?" ”
Is it because of the second prince? Or is it because of the Great Prince? Or is it because of what Queen Pei said? Putting him under a heavy pressure and burden?
The sixth prince seemed to understand something from Cheng Jinrong's concerned and anxious eyes, and said softly: "No matter how frightening the nightmare is, it is just a dream, not a reality. As long as you don't let the nightmare become a reality, you don't have to worry. ”
In the soft morning light, the handsome faces of the six princes were calmer and calmer than before. In just a few months, he has grown rapidly. No longer suffer from gains and losses at every turn, and no longer show all your emotions on your face all the time.
He spied into the anxiety in her heart, and relieved her with words of comfort.
Cheng Jinrong's nose was slightly sour, but his heart swelled with indescribable joy and comfort.
He's grown up.
"That's what Your Highness said." Cheng Jinrong said in a low voice: "It's because I'm too anxious and uneasy, and I'm not as calm as His Highness." ”
The sixth prince also lowered his voice: "If you care, you will be chaotic." Cousin Rong cares about a person in her heart, so she will have nightmares because of him. This heart, that person's heart is very moved. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Meeting under the eaves of the porch and whispering a few words is the limit. If you continue to talk about it, you will be suspicious. Cheng Jinrong calmed down and smiled: "Your Highness is in the palace first, please say hello to the emperor!" ”
The sixth prince also laughed: "How can there be so many evasions, let's go in together." ”
When it comes to saints, no one can match Cheng Jinrong now. Emperor Xuanhe's trust in her and his unconsciously revealed dependence on her were seen by everyone.
The six princes did not have the slightest jealousy in their hearts, but they were happy for Cheng Jinrong.
Cheng Jinrong did not prevaricate, responded with a smile, and entered the dormitory with the six princes.
……
Cheng Jinrong is on duty in front of the emperor every day, and the six princes also come to ask for an escort every day. However, it was the first time that the two entered the dormitory together.
Emperor Xuanhe, who was sitting on the dragon couch, swept his eyes slightly, and a strange feeling suddenly surged in his heart.
Cheng Jinrong has a slender figure, a smile on his lips, and a pretty face like a flower. The sixth prince was half a head shorter than Cheng Jinrong, with a smile on his face and clear black eyes.
Obviously, their faces are not so shabby, but the two stand side by side, but there is a subtle harmony and pleasing to the eye.
Empress Pei, who was standing on the edge of the dragon couch, keenly noticed the strangeness that flashed in Emperor Xuanhe's eyes, her heart tightened, and she unconsciously held her breath.
"The son of the emperor greets his father." The six princes bowed their hands to say goodbye.
Cheng Jinrong also bowed: "Wechen has seen the emperor." ”
Emperor Xuanhe snorted casually: "It's all flat." Why did you two come here together? ”
The sixth prince looked calm, and replied with a smile: "Erchen met Cousin Rong under the eaves of the porch, so he invited Cousin Rong to come in with him. ”
The six princes had no distracting thoughts and were open-minded.
Emperor Xuanhe suddenly turned his head to look at Empress Pei, and seemed to laugh casually: "Xiaoliu and Imperial Physician Cheng are cousins and cousins. In the past, I didn't notice it, but when I looked at it today, I realized that the two of them were a little similar. ”
I didn't notice it in the past, because there were many people in the palace, and there was indeed not much similarity between Cheng Jinrong and the appearance of the six princes.
During this period of time, there were only a few people around Emperor Xuanhe. The attention to Cheng Jinrong and the Six Princes is far closer than in the past. Today, the two came in together, and the similarity in temperament was visible at a glance, which also made Emperor Xuanhe a little suspicious.
The moment has finally come!
Empress Pei's tense nerves stretched out for some reason, and she smiled in a relaxed tone that surprised her: "The fourth sister died early, the emperor has never seen her, if you have seen the fourth sister, you will know how similar the fourth sister is to the concubine." It's a pity that Jinrong's appearance was born like her father, not like the fourth sister. Otherwise, Jin Rong and Xiaoliu should be more similar. ”
Cheng Jinrong's heartstrings trembled slightly, and he subconsciously looked up.
Empress Pei's smile was as usual, not showing any different colors, and her voice was soft and pleasant: "Don't hide it from the emperor, Jinrong's mother died early, and the concubines always have a little more pity for her." After Jinrong entered the palace last year, the concubine asked her to accompany her. also wants to take care of her a little more, and it can be regarded as worthy of the fourth sister who died early. ”
"Xiaoliu and Jinrong fell in love, and the concubine was also relieved."
Emperor Xuanhe glanced at Empress Pei again, and before Emperor Xuanhe could open his mouth to say anything, the sixth prince hurriedly smiled and said, "Queen Mother, Erchen also feels very close to Cousin Rong!" ”
Then, he said to Cheng Jinrong with a solemn face: "Cousin Rong doesn't have a younger brother, so she will treat me as a younger brother in the future." In the future, Captain He will not be able to stand with you, just tell me, I will support you and vent my anger. ”
Cheng Jinrong: "......"
Cheng Jinrong's mood was complicated and delicate, difficult to describe in words, and he quickly smiled: "Weichen thanked His Highness." ”
Emperor Xuanhe's gaze swept over Cheng Jinrong's pretty face and landed on the handsome face of the six princes.
At this moment, Gonggong Zhao came to report from a different place: "Your Majesty, Duke Wei sent an urgent report." ”
The trivial matters of government affairs between the DPRK and China are discussed by the ministers and decided by the eldest prince and the second prince. and other idle trivial things, never dare to disturb Emperor Xuanhe. At this time, an urgent report was sent to Huangzhuang overnight, and it must have been a big incident in the court.
Emperor Xuanhe's eyes flashed with coldness, and his expression was slightly gloomy: "Present the fold." ”
