Chapter 51: The Golden Flower Falls

?

On March 17, the princes rested, and the queen invited the harem to go to the agarwood pavilion on the north bank of the dragon pond in the Xingqing Palace in the south to watch the play, and also made an appointment with the four new 'women'.

I went with the 'jade' in my arms, and when everyone arrived, I found that there were only eight princes, nine princes, ten princes and eleven princes among the princes, and I usually met the eleventh prince when I went to the queen, so he was somewhat familiar with me.

"My brothers are going to play polo and won't take us there. The Eleventh Prince looked at me with blank eyes and explained.

The queen looked at him softly and smiled at me: "The seven princes are all big children, so they go to play polo with the second prince, and the eighth prince can only come over to watch the play with us!"

Concubine He sighed: "It's really a big deal, the concubine still wants to talk while Xiao Qi is resting!"

"Why not, when Xiao Eleven grows up in a few years, I'm afraid I will have to play polo with my brothers, and I don't want to accompany this palace. The queen also laughed, but the gentle 'color' in her eyes did not decrease.

The eleventh prince's slender fingers held the queen's sleeve, and said softly: "Queen Mother, the sons don't play polo with their brothers, and the sons will stay with the queen mother!"

The queen's eyes showed a 'color' of joy, and the concubine looked at the eleventh prince with a very complicated gaze, and sighed: "The eleventh prince also knows the filial piety of the queen!"

The queen hugged the eleventh prince and stroked his hair, very comforting.

Although the emperor's preferred successor is the second prince, the seventh prince is not to be outdone, but looking at the situation now, the queen raising the eleventh prince is probably also intended to get a piece of the pie.

I only held my 'jade' and played with a Buddha's hand on the table, he can now hold things, and he especially likes those 'colorful' and 'colorful' things, so the yellow Buddha's hand immediately attracted his attention.

Zheng Guifei was the last to arrive, and she told the queen with a smile: "Originally, the concubine had already gone out, but who knew that the child in Xiaoliu suddenly said that he wanted to find the cue given to him by the emperor, and the concubine looked for a while, so she came later, don't blame the queen!"

The imperial cue was awarded to the emperor when the emperor was the first emperor, and the emperor rewarded the sixth prince last year, which made the seventh prince feel very frustrated.

The queen's face was pale and she didn't say anything.

Now that everyone has arrived, the play begins.

As a result, the gongs and drums together, 'Jade' became impatient, and the little eyebrows frowned, I couldn't bear to look at it, and wanted the queen to allow me to take 'Jade' back first, the queen said: "You let people send the child back, it's rare for everyone to watch the play together!"

I couldn't, so I had to let Frostfall take the child back to the palace first, and I still stayed.

It's just that no matter how lively the stage is, I'm not interested, the queen saw that I couldn't sit still, shook her head and sighed: "You, I really can't leave for a moment, when the child grows up and goes to study in Chongwen Hall, what are you going to do, it's just that, go back quickly!"

Concubine He smiled: "We are all mothers, why don't we understand!"

I often confess my sins, but I don't want to stay longer, if I offend people, I will offend people, for me, children are more important than these entertainment.

The distance from Nannei to Dongnei is not close, and you need to take a carriage, so I asked An Shi to take the 'jade' back and take the carriage first, so I waited while walking, and I was not in a hurry to arrive at this time.

Walking through the hundred 'flowers' garden, the sound of the opera gradually could not be heard, and after walking for a while, I heard the faint sound of music, but not the lively opera, but the sorrow of whimpering, and then listen carefully, as if it was Xunqu, I was curious for a while, and followed the sound to go, the Xunqu was like a grievance, such as crying, and people couldn't help but be sad together.

At this time, the weather is sunny, and hundreds of 'flowers' are blooming in the garden, and I don't know who has such sadness on such a good day.

"Let's take a look. "I said to the 'spring' equinox, and followed the voice to a ruined palace, and I could vaguely see that the three words written on the 'door' plaque were 'gold' 'flowers' falling".

I was surprised, Xingqing Palace is the mansion of the first emperor before the succession, the first emperor ascended the throne after the expansion of it, become the south, has been here on the court, deal with political affairs, and later accept the fifteenth king's biological mother as the concubine, extremely favored, almost to the point of the sole favor, at that time the harem is simply like a fictitious, this golden 'flower' fall, is the first emperor for the concubine and built, it is said that when this place was built, the first emperor set off the golden 'flower' thousand trees at night, and the sky flew 'flower' like snow falling, so it was different from other palaces, and the name gold 'flower' fell.

It's a pity that Concubine Zhen died, the first emperor died, and no one cleaned it here, and it decayed early, but I don't know who played a sad song here.

Gently pushing open the rusty big 'door', I walked in with 'Chunfen', which was overgrown with weeds, and I only saw the stone table in the weeds, and Qi Min was dressed in white, leaving the world independent.

When I came in, the song was over.

He saw me and said, "You've come just in time, come and have a drink with me, today is my birthday." His tone was calm, but somehow, I felt infinite grief in it.

There was a pot of wine in front of him, and he suddenly raised his head and took a big sip, I nodded to the 'spring equinox', asked her to go to the 'door' to watch, and walked to Qi Min's side, he was very bad.

He smiled faintly at me and repeated, "Today is my birthday." "How can anyone have such a sad birthday, I am full of doubts, but I heard him say: "It is also the death day of my mother!"

I was stunned, and suddenly remembered that Concubine Zhen died of a postpartum blood collapse.

The first emperor always said that Concubine Zhen was killed by Qi Min, so he hated him, but the first emperor never thought that he also lost his mother as soon as he was born, and I don't know what kind of pain he felt every year when he celebrated his birthday.

I picked up the flask on the table, raised my head and took a sip, I hadn't drunk for a long time, I was choked by the crisp taste, frowning slightly, I didn't expect him to drink such a strong wine.

He smiled and said, "Every year today, I want to get drunk hard!"

I looked around and asked, "Do you come here every year today?"

"Sometimes I come, sometimes I don't. "I want to come but can't come, he said softly, took another sip of wine, and the more he drank, the brighter his eyes became, "You came with Xunqu!"

I nodded, and after a moment said, "I want to cry!"

He smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes at all, and he was cold and infinite.

I looked down at Tao Xun on the table, Xuan 'color', six holes, nothing special, very ordinary, I couldn't help but reach out and 'touch' 'touch', the tentacles were warm, as if they had been rubbed for a long time.

Suddenly his hand was heavy, his hand was over, I looked up in surprise, but he stared straight at me, without the slightest concession, I was a little displeased, I wanted to 'pull' my hand, but he held it tighter.
