Ye Tingfeng raised his head and asked, "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, why didn't you attend the palace banquet?" ”

"Uninteresting." Emperor Yongning put down Ye Tingfeng's hair, pulled Ye Tingfeng to sit down in front of the table, raised his hand and poured a glass of wine for Ye Tingfeng, and said, "Today, the eldest brother wants to accompany you." ”

"How did you come up with me?" Ye Tingfeng sniffed and said, "You should accompany your queen, your concubines, and your imperial heir." ”

"Feng'er, don't say it, the royal brother wants to see you." Emperor Yongning raised his head and drank the wine, "You can't push the imperial brother out." ”

"Under the whole world, it is not the imperial land." Ye Tingfeng put the wine cup to his lips and sucked lightly, "Where do I dare to push you out." ”

"Don't just drink and hurt yourself." Emperor Yongning picked up the silver chopsticks, picked up the dishes and put them on the white jade plate in front of Ye Tingfeng, "Eat vegetables, I ordered the imperial dining room to make them specially, they are all your favorite food." ”

Ye Tingfeng glanced at the dishes on the table and said in a low voice, "There are also my mother's favorite foods." ”

"Hmm." Emperor Yongning snorted lightly, looked at Ye Tingfeng, and sighed, "I have never sat down with your mother, and I have had a meal quietly as now." ”

"But you still know what she likes to eat." Ye Tingfeng lowered his head, and after being silent for a while, he said softly, "You let Jingyu come to me and force me to make a decision, just because you don't want to embarrass my mother." ”

"Your mother, you must hate me to death." Emperor Yongning did not deny it, and after taking a sip of wine, he said, "I also hate myself to death." ”

"You are the king of a country, and you have your own difficulties." Ye Tingfeng raised his eyes to look at the screen behind Emperor Yongning, staring at the plum blossoms on it and blinking repeatedly, "My mother said, emperor, there are too many things to give up." ”

"Your mother, maybe she doesn't know the emperor, she doesn't know me, but she understands the emperor." Picking his lips and smiling, Emperor Yongning said again, "But no matter how she understands the difficulties of an emperor, she will not forgive me." ”

"You are really ...... to my mother" Listening to Feng's dumb words at night, I don't know how to talk to my brother about my mother.

If this is in the big moon, everything will become logical.

"Everyone has things that they can't give up, I have them, your mother has them, and you have them." Emperor Yongning held the wine cup and poured himself wine again, "Feng'er, there will be a imperial examination next year, can the imperial brother choose a horse for you?" ”

Raising his head and drinking all the wine in the cup, Ye Tingfeng pursed his bloodless lips and said to Emperor Yongning, "I'd better go to the Qingxin Pavilion to practice......

"I'm not going to let you sneak away to Otsuki." After seeing through Ye Tingfeng's thoughts, Emperor Yongning said, "If you go back to the Qingxin Pavilion, you can only be in the Qingxin Pavilion." Feng'er, don't be willful......"

Ye Tingfeng bit his lip and said, "You ordered me to die, so that no matter what I do, I won't be embarrassed by the royal family." ”

Emperor Yongning once again filled the wine cup of Ye Tingfeng and did not answer.

After a while, I listened to Feng at night, "You go back to the palace for the banquet, it's not too early." ”

"There is no palace banquet, there is no palace banquet today." Emperor Yongning drank again.

Ye Ting Feng raised his eyes, his eyes showing disbelief. The palace banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve, how could there be none.

Emperor Yongning's right hand was forceful, crushing the white jade wine cup in his hand, making a crisp sound of 'pop', he looked up at Ye Tingfeng, and spit out a few words, "Feng'er, the prince of Dayue, was sacrificed." ”

Listening to Feng's brain buzzing at night, she couldn't think for a while, her body gradually became numb, cold, and tears slipped down in large pieces, she looked at the emperor in front of her and repeated in a daze, "Sacrifice flag ......"

Emperor Yongning lowered his head, his teeth chattering, "Outside, the emperor's order is not granted, Feng'er, the imperial brother is sorry for you." ”

Ye Tingfeng stood up, looked at Emperor Yongning and suddenly smiled, "Brother Emperor, don't tease Feng'er, this joke, Feng'er can't afford ......"

"Feng'er ......" Emperor Yongning raised his head, his eyes full of guilt.

Hearing Feng laugh twice, she suddenly squatted on the ground, cried bitterly, she shouted like a child, "Mother, I want mother, I want mother......"

"Xiaojingzi." Emperor Yongning picked up the white jade pot and drank bitterly, and instructed Xiao Jingzi who came in, "Pass on the imperial doctor, I want her to be well, and I want the fifth princess to be well......"

The Dayue capital, which is thousands of miles away from the imperial city of Dashun, is also full of lights.

In the Dongming Palace, the palace banquet that Mrs. Wen, Mrs. Miao, and Liu Zhaorong worked together to take care of began at three o'clock in the unitary hour.

Although the border pass has not started a serious battle, the armies of the two sides have been facing each other for four months. Therefore, the concubines at the palace banquet were all frightened and cautious.

Even the musicians who played the silk and bamboo did not dare to pluck the high notes.

Emperor Jianning sat on the main seat, with no smile on his face, looking at the concubines sitting below who were detaining the cups and changing the lamps, without a trace of joy.

After drinking a glass of wine, Emperor Jianning pointed to the dancing girls on the high platform and said, "The dance is good." ”

Mrs. Miao raised the corners of her mouth and echoed, "Yes, I heard that this year's teaching workshop has changed to a new teaching mama, and it does look different from before." ”

Qing Xiuyi, who was sitting beside Mrs. Miao, also nodded and said, "The emperor and Sister Miao haven't said it, and the concubines haven't found out yet, but now that I say it, I really think that today's dancers are all aura." ”

Mrs. Wen leaned forward, glanced at Tao Niangzi in the distance, and said with a smile, "What is Tao Niangzi doing, isn't she drunk?" ”

Mrs. Wen's words successfully attracted the attention of several people to Tao Niangzi in the distance.

Tao Niangzi wore some light blue palace clothes today, with a low bun and not many hair accessories. At this time, the jade face was slightly red, his eyes were hazy and drunk, and he was holding two small pearls with a pair of silver chopsticks in his hand.

The pearl is small and round, and when Tao Niangzi clamps it hard, the pearl slides to the side, and then clips it, and slips again.

Tao Niangzi was not annoyed, and took the silver chopsticks to clip it over and over again, and the smile on her face did not diminish at all.

Seeing this, Mrs. Miao raised her head slightly, the steps on her bun swayed slightly, she looked at Tao Niangzi with a sneer on the corner of her mouth, and asked, "Tao Niangzi, but you are drunk?" ”

Tao Niangzi raised her head slightly, looked at Mrs. Miao and said with a smile, "The concubine is not drunk......

After that, he lowered his head again, and took the silver chopsticks like a child to clip the pearl in front of him.

"Since Tao Niangzi is drunk, go back and rest." Wen Chongyuan proposed coldly, and her heart was full of disdain for Tao Niangzi.

Tao Niangzi was not favored by Emperor Jianning at first, but then somehow, she acted a little more like Mrs. Zhaoyue.

In just three months, she has risen from a small maid to the position of a lady.

"If you are not drunk, then come to the main palace." Mrs. Wen stretched out her hand to Mrs. Tao and smiled, "Come, come here." ”

After Zhen Ronghua glanced at Emperor Jianning on the main throne, he turned back to look at Mrs. Wen and Mrs. Tao, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Tao Niangzi bit her lip and said to Emperor Jianning, "The concubine will not go." ”

Emperor Jianning raised his eyebrows and drank the wine and tea lightly.

"Your Majesty, this whole palace is spinning around." Tao Niangzi raised her finger and pointed at the temple, frowned and said, "It's all turning, and the concubine is dizzy." ”

The people sitting next to Tao Niangzi covered their mouths and chuckled, slightly breaking the stiff atmosphere at the palace banquet.

"Tao Niangzi, this is drunk." Yun Ronghua, who was sitting not far from Tao Niangzi, poured herself a glass of wine, raised her beautiful eyes and said, "Let's go and rest." ”

"Your Majesty, the concubine is not drunk." Tao Niangzi didn't pay attention to Yun Ronghua's words, but looked at Emperor Jianning Jiaojiao, "Don't believe it, the concubine will prove it to you." ”

As he spoke, he staggered to his feet with the hand of the palace maid, shook his slender waist and swayed back and forth a few times.

She glanced up at Emperor Jianning, took the hand of the palace maid and walked out of her seat, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, you see, the concubines are not drunk, that is, the sisters are shaking, and the concubines are so faint......"

"Hurry up and help Tao Niangzi here." Mrs. Wen said to the palace maid who was holding Tao Niangzi.

Tao Niangzi looked at the road under her feet with wide eyes, facing Mrs. Wen with her face, but she was slowly approaching Emperor Jianning.

Just as she was about to walk in front of Emperor Jianning's table, Ning Xiao suddenly ran in from outside, saluted Emperor Jianning and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Xie Ruyu of the Xie family asks to see you." ”

"Who?" Emperor Jianning took his eyes off Tao Niangzi's body, doubting in his heart.

"Xie Ruyu." Ning Xiao said word by word, "General Xie's granddaughter Xie Ruyu asks to see you." ”

"She ......" Emperor Jianning narrowed his eyes, Xie Ruyu had been in Dashun for two years, how could he suddenly return to Dayue silently, and how did he enter the palace?

Holding a golden short spear, Xie Ruyu, who strode in from outside in dark blue clothes, relieved Emperor Jianning's doubts.

Two years ago, Emperor Jianning once rewarded her with a golden short spear, and the holy decree of the reward said that she could enter the palace at will with this short spear.

Emperor Jianning held the wine cup and looked at Xie Ruyu, who was holding a child in his left hand and a golden short spear in his right hand, and was stunned.

The concubines in the first hall were all stunned.

Xie Ruyu walked to the front of the throne, her face was as cold as frost, she did not salute Emperor Jianning, but to the little prince in her arms who was playing with her fingers, looking at the surrounding concubines with wide eyes and curiosity, choked and said, "Yu'er, this is your father." ”

Emperor Jianning stood up suddenly and knocked over the wine cup on the table. The wine cup touched the dishes lightly, making a ping-pong sound.

"Isn't it just for him that your army is pressing?" Xie Ruyu burst into tears, and after putting the little prince on the ground, he raised his head and said, "Retire, the prince of Dayue, I sent it back." ”

On the third day of the first month of the sixth year of Jianning, Emperor Jianning ordered the withdrawal of troops for 100 miles.

Under the rain, Dayue Tieqi set up camp under the order of General Zhenyuan, and at the beginning of leaving, he retreated a hundred miles.

The four princesses who were marching with the army sat in the wide carriage, lifted the bamboo curtain and glanced at the territory behind them with nostalgia.

It used to be her home, but now she can't go back, and she has no face to go back.

Lu Boyun, the general of Zhenyuan, who was sitting in the carriage because of the wind and cold, looked at the woman in front of him who had not spoken since she came to his mansion, covered her lips and coughed lightly.

This person is not the one who has been haunting him for two years.

He prepared a carriage in the general's palace, a loyal guard, and enough silver taels. As soon as the army leaves the capital, Lady Zhaoyue can be freed.

The woman who went to battle with him could be anyone, and no one would suspect it in front of the two armies.

But she wasn't, she wasn't the Lady Zhaoyue.

Lu Boyun trembled for more than three days because of this, and finally came to the conclusion that Emperor Jianning was reluctant, so after giving a holy decree to reward, the reward given to him was a fake.

Really, still inside the palace.

Coughing violently twice, Lu Boyun leaned against the trunk and slowly closed his eyes.

Outside the carriage, the faces of the soldiers were filled with the joy of victory.

Their emperor rewarded Mrs. Zhaoyue to his subordinates as concubines, and trampled the face of the Dashun royal family under his feet.

Emperor Dashun did not dare to send troops, nor did he dare to jump over the short distance of twenty miles. Their counterattack was to fall and kill an older child in front of the two armies.

He also said that it was the prince of Otsuki.

It's really ridiculous, the fact that there is no prince in Otsuki is known to the entire people of Otsuki. This way of venting anger made Otsuki's soldiers shameless.

On the twentieth day of the first month of the sixth year of Yongning, Dashun retreated for 100 miles.

The iron-blooded men pulled up their tents and evacuated Rongcheng under the afterglow of the setting sun.

It was night, and the camp was celebrated, as if a battle had been won.

Around the bonfire, Dong Jilin, the general who commanded an army of 300,000, laughed loudly, and said proudly when he was drinking with the soldiers, "Da Yue, but Erer!" The only prince of Otsuki fell and killed in front of the two armies, no matter how angry they are, they are not obediently retreating! ”

Li Lingyi sat on the other side of the bonfire and didn't say a word. Watching the flames in front of him lick the backs of the cattle and sheep, emitting bursts of fragrance.

When he returned to the camp that day, Xie Ruyu had already taken advantage of the chaos to run away with the little prince in his arms.

There was chaos in the camp, and after learning that it was the prince of Dayue who escaped, they shouted loudly and wanted to capture the prince of Dayue back to sacrifice the flag.

Li Lingyi was the only person who knew the Great Moon Prince, and he was full of indignation, and he asked for his life in front of the tent, and he was determined to bring the woman and the Great Moon Prince back.

Then, Li Lingyi let go of Xie Ruyu and returned to the barracks with an innocent poor man.

He watched as the burly general in front of him threw the innocent child to death under the military flag.

The child's blood stained its brownish and yellow land and ignited the morale of the Dashun soldiers.

Li Lingyi felt a chill rise from the bottom of his heart, he couldn't accept this kind of combat method of slaughtering women and Confucians.

On the tenth day of the second month of the sixth year of Jianning, Dayue retreated 500 miles.

On February 25 of the sixth year of Yongning, Dashun retreated 500 miles.

At the beginning of March of the sixth year of Jianning, the town of Shiyi re-moved into the business hotel and was still prosperous.

On March 20 of the sixth year of Jianning, the first batch of Dashun merchants who went to Dayue to do business successfully passed the checkpoint between the two countries......

Everything is back to the same.

On March 15 of the sixth year of Yongning, King Yi rode his horse back to the capital of Dashun.

didn't return to King Yi's mansion, his eyes were red and bloodshot, and he came directly to the imperial city.

In the Yongshou Palace, Li Lingyi saw Ye Tingfeng, who had not been seen for four months.

Ye Tingfeng squatted under the peach tree in the garden of Yongshou Palace, wearing a powder blue palace dress, with long green silk untied buns, naturally hanging on both sides of his shoulders, and a little peach blossom fell.

Li Lingyi walked over, squatted down, and saw that Ye Tingfeng was holding a silver-headed hairpin, and tied peach blossoms one by one.

"Fifth Emperor Sister." Li Lingyi called lightly and said, "I'll take you out of the palace." ”

Ye Tingfeng didn't answer, and continued to tie the peach blossoms with hairpins.

Li Lingyi called again, "Fifth Emperor Sister." ”

Seeing that Ye Tingfeng still didn't react, Li Lingyi grabbed Ye Tingfeng's tender white jade hand with a hand that had cracked a few bloody wounds.

Ye Tingfeng raised his head and looked at Li Lingyi who was squatting in front of him. The little face is thin and dull, and the eyes that are as clear as mountain springs are full of confusion.

As if she didn't know, she lowered her head, changed the silver hairpin from her right hand to her left hand, and continued to tie the peach blossoms.

"Fifth Emperor Sister," Li Lingyi choked up, "Yu'er is still there, he is still alive." ”

As if he hadn't heard it, he held the silver hairpin's hand and tied a string of pink peach blossoms.

"Fifth Emperor Sister, my mother is waiting for us, I will take you out of the palace." Li Lingyi stepped forward, stretched out his hand to take Ye Tingfeng in his arms, and strode towards the outside of Yongshou Palace.

Ye Tingfeng jumped over Li Lingyi's shoulder, and his unfocused gaze fell on the peach tree with peach blossoms floating behind him. “

In the courtyard of the Great Moon Palace, Fengyang Palace, the prince plays under the care of the palace people.

Suddenly, he stumbled and fell to the ground.

Xie Ruyu hurriedly stepped forward, helped the prince up, and stroked the prince's delicate little hands with a handkerchief. The prince didn't fall in pain, and after giggling twice, he went back to play with the palace maid.

Snorting, Xie Ruyu burst into tears.

The palace maid on one side handed over the handkerchief and said softly, "Madame, the prince is fine, he was not hurt." ”

Xie Ruyu buried her head between her knees and choked up.

The crown prince is a good son, and as soon as he returned, he won all the favor of Emperor Jianning. But he became the wife of the third lady, and the prince became the son and son of the daughter of the Xie family.

Emperor Jianning walked in slowly from the outside, saw Xie Ruyu sitting on the ground and sobbing, and sent out all the palace people on one side.

He lifted the hem of his robe, sat down a foot away from Xie Ruyu, and sighed, "Ruyu, today your grandfather united many ministers to fold the son, and let me make you the queen." ”

Xie Ruyu raised her head suddenly, her apricot eyes were red, "You can't." ”

"I can't." Holding a pair of dragon and phoenix pendants in his hand, Emperor Jianning suddenly smiled after watching the meeting, "I, I can't rob women with my uncle." ”

Sealing Xie Ruyu as his wife is just an expedient move.

This prince who was brought back from the outside can't be without a mother, and at this time saying that the eldest son of the emperor is the princess of Dashun will only cause controversy among the officials in the court.

It just so happened that Xie Ruyu's existence solved this problem.

Xie Ruyu and the emperor's eldest son were in Dashun for two years, which became the reason why Emperor Jianning insisted on sending troops to Dashun.

With the full support of the Xie family, the identity of the eldest son of Emperor Wanyan Yu was determined, and then, hundreds of officials in the court supported him as the crown prince.

The crown prince is the first prince of Emperor Jianning, and his biological mother is from a famous family, so she meets all the conditions for being made a prince.

After the matter of the crown prince was decided, the Xie family, headed by Xie Yuanxing, proposed to establish the queen.

Because Emperor Jianning once said that if there is no prince, there will be no queen.

Now that the prince has a throne, the queen is naturally the biological mother of the prince.

It's just that how could Emperor Jianning make Xie Ruyu the queen.

Xie Ruyu returned to the Dayue Palace for three months, and said everything he could say to Emperor Jianning.

Emperor Jianning knew who Ye Tingfeng was, why she ran, and how she was struggling.

Every time I think about it, my heart is pounded.

She worked hard to give birth to their emperor, but he thought about how to provoke Dashun and force him to death.

"Fifth Sister must be sad to death." Xie Ruyu buried her face in her palms.
