Chapter 159: Double Happiness (3)
When Yun Xiao heard this, he smiled:
"Actually, the concubines don't care about this, didn't the emperor tell the concubines before, let the concubines treat Concubine Li as their cousin? Therefore, the concubine did not treat Concubine Li as an ordinary concubine, the concubine knew that Concubine Li had been pampered since she was a child, and sometimes she was not sensible, so the concubine taught her more. ”
Yun Xiao said sincerely, Xia Rui listened, his heart was indescribably moved, and the hand holding Yun Xiao became tighter and tighter.
He suddenly bowed his head and said with apology:
"I'm sorry...... Xiao'er, I'm really sorry...... I shouldn't have made such a request to you, before, in the East Palace, there were only two women by my side, I hoped that you could get along peacefully, but now, as the master of the harem, there are too many things that you need to take care of, such a request, for you, is actually too harsh, I can see it, no matter how you maintain your cousin, no matter how you take care of your cousin, she doesn't think you are good, and now, she is still mixed with that Feng Yu, she and Rong Hui are too disappointed to me...... Now, the only person who can comfort me in my heart is you, and I still keep asking you to do this and that, I really shouldn't, Xiao'er, I'm sorry, I didn't do a good job, I was too mean to you, I ......"
"The Emperor's ......"
Yun Xiao couldn't listen to it a little, and couldn't help but interrupt Xia Rui's words, her eyes suddenly turned red, she fixed her thoughts, and tried her best to make her voice sound calm,
"The concubine is your wife, she should have shared your worries, the concubine doesn't think this is a harsh requirement, this is what the concubine herself is willing to do, the concubine doesn't feel wronged in her heart, these things, for the concubine, have become as natural as eating and drinking unconsciously, as long as the emperor is happy, don't be as sullen as now, the concubine can do anything!"
After Xia Rui heard Yun Xiao's words, his eyes also reddened.
He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Yun Xiao's cheek, as if he was gently touching a peerless treasure, between his eyes, there were countless thoughts, in Xia Rui's heart churned, he suddenly said:
"Xiao'er, what if...... If I can marry such a good wife as you as soon as possible, and let the mother concubine see it, the mother will be very happy, maybe then the mother will not leave me so early, and she will not be trapped in the pain of a person without relief, maybe...... She'll live a few more years, maybe...... She can still see our Hua'er ......."
When Yun Xiao heard this, he was taken aback: "Your Majesty...... What did you say? ”
Xia Rui continued:
"I always thought that the mother concubine was killed by the Queen Mother, but it wasn't until recently that I figured it out, Rong Hui and I were wrong, we have always been wrong, the mother concubine was not killed by the Queen Mother, she was trapped in her own emotional injuries and could not be relieved, she gave up on herself, you see Rong Hui to Feng Yu, that infatuated and unrepentant appearance, it is exactly the same as the mother concubine to her father back then! However, at that time, Ronghui and I were too young to understand how torturous love in this world was, and we didn't understand that the mother was depressed all day long because of her extremely sad feelings for her father, so we didn't know how to comfort the mother concubine......"
When Yun Xiao heard this, he was shocked to the extreme.
Concubine Rou actually went because of this incident, Yun Xiao thought of all the things she had found before, and couldn't help but feel shuddering.
Xia Rui once said that Concubine Rou had sworn to the former emperor that she would no longer investigate matters related to Loulan, but she finally broke her promise.
Don't...... She had already seen the painting hidden in the Weiyang Palace, and knew that the woman in the painting looked very similar to herself?
In this way, the woman in the painting is likely to be Princess Loulan.
Unexpectedly, the truth turned out to be like this, at this moment, Yun Xiao really couldn't calm his heart.
At this moment, she heard Xia Rui say again:
"Xiao'er, the painting I saw here before, and I said it looked like my mother, is it still there?"
When Yun Xiao heard this, he was full of excitement.
That painting was taken away by Dugu Yexue, and it has not been returned until now, Dugu Yexue didn't let Yun Xiao mention it again, and Yun Xiao gradually forgot about it, and now Xia Rui asked, Yun Xiao couldn't help but raise his spirit:
"That painting...... That painting...... The concubine can't remember where to put it for a while, Your Majesty, what do you want that painting for? ”
Xia Rui replied, "Xiao'er, can you help me find out the painting?" In that painting, there are too many secrets hidden, I can't let my mother leave me and Ronghui like this, I must find out what happened back then, Xiao'er, you help me, okay?! ”
When Yun Xiao heard this, his heart was full of eyes, and he was all distressed. Tears spread uncontrollably all over her face, and she nodded vigorously and said:
"Good...... Good...... The concubine will definitely do her best, Your Majesty, don't be so sad, no matter what happens in the future, the concubine will stand by your side, advance and retreat with you, and will never retreat......"
Xia Rui wants to focus on investigating the cause of Concubine Rou's death, which will inevitably involve the old affairs of the former emperor and Princess Loulan, in fact, this is a good thing for Yun Xiao.
However, Yun Xiao, who had already guessed the general passage, couldn't help but worry in his heart that in the future, after Xia Rui knew the whole truth, it would be even more difficult to face his father and mother.
In this way, she couldn't help but feel that she was a little selfish to accept it in such a hurry.
But the reality didn't have time for her to think so much, and Xia Rui, who got her affirmative reply, suddenly fell into her arms like a child, and said in a low voice:
"Xiao'er, I'm tired...... I'm so tired...... Fortunately, I still have you, otherwise, I will really become a loner, I don't want to be a loner, you don't want to leave me in this life, I swear to God, in this life, I Xia Rui's heart only loves Yun Xiao alone, and I will not treat anyone more than Yun Xiao, if I break my oath, I will be called the same as my mother, and my children will die depressed before they grow up......"
"Your Majesty, don't talk about it......"
Yun Xiao lowered his head and lowered his eyebrows, looking at Xia Rui affectionately, and suddenly felt that he and he were like two wild wolves who couldn't find a home in the snow, and they could only hug each other to keep warm.
The two supreme people in this empire, who can't see the place of others, are actually more vulnerable than others.
