Chapter 20: National Mourning

Even Ning Shi could see that Emperor Jianning was going to execute everyone in the Guan Ju Palace, how could Madam Yu not see it.

She looked up at the emperor standing in the heavy rain, as if he was in the ice, "Concubine, concubine won't say it, concubine, emperor, concubine ......"

"Imperial sister-in-law, what did you say?" Emperor Jianning turned around, walked in front of Madame Yu and bent down slightly.

Looking at Emperor Jianning, who was enlarged in front of him, with a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth, Madam Yu involuntarily leaned back and shook with Qianqing.

Standing in front of her at this time was the Yama King from hell.

"Concubine, concubine is not your imperial sister-in-law......" Madame Yu shook her head, she wanted to say that she was her concubine, but the words were stuck in her throat and couldn't spit out.

Emperor Jianning stood up straight and continued to Lu Shi beside him, "Madame Yu is grateful to the first emperor, please leave the palace to guard the tomb of the first emperor, I am approved."

Mrs. Yu Mu Ran, she was originally the empress of Emperor Shiyuan, and now Emperor Jianning asked her to guard the tomb of Emperor Shiyuan, which is like taking her off.

All the calculations came to naught, and Madame Jade couldn't hold on any longer, and fainted with her head up.

The queen is a national mourning.

Emperor Jianning decreed a three-day break from the dynasty, and the whole country banned banquets and marriages for three months, and expressed his condolences.

On the same day, Madame Yu, who witnessed the death of Empress Qin, asked to leave the palace to guard the tomb of the first emperor.

The crazy Yun Ronghua gave birth to the fourth princess of the Great Moon Kingdom peacefully, which is not worth mentioning compared with such a major event as Empress Qin and Madame Yu asking to leave the palace to guard the tomb for the First Yuan Emperor.

It's not even worth mentioning the matter of adding heirs to the royal family, let alone the fact that Mrs. Zhaoyue was willful, played fireworks and burned the Fengyang Palace, and then was grounded.

The truth of Emperor Jianning's anger was easily covered up.

The Xie and Qin families were grief-stricken, and they both looked at the Liu family with angry eyes.

Although Empress Qin's body was weak during pregnancy, it was not so weak that she suddenly had a difficult birth at eight months, and both mother and child died. Thinking of Mrs. Yu's request to leave the palace to guard the tomb of the first emperor, they all thought that this was a means for Mrs. Yu.

What is the first emperor guarding the mausoleum, but Emperor Jianning left three points of thin noodles for the Liu family, abandoned Mrs. Yu and let her leave the palace to fend for herself.

The Xie and Qin families thought so, and so did the Liu family.

Madame Yu has always wanted to bring down Empress Qin, and it is not ruled out that she will do something to the pregnant Empress Qin.

Therefore, the rare humility of the Liu family and his party, the embarrassment of the Xie and Qin families was tolerated many times, and the gratitude to Emperor Jianning for not being angry with the Liu family rose in his heart.

At this time, if you don't hold your tail between your legs, you are afraid that Emperor Jianning will really be angry and completely wipe out the Liu family.

On March 27 of the fourth year of Jianning, Emperor Jianning returned to the Qingxin Palace and sat in the bookcase to deal with government affairs.

As I concentrated, I heard a few small soft sounds.

He looked up and followed the voice.

On the flying immortal cover, there is a silver step sway. The broken jade tassels that shook moved with the wind, making a soft sound when they collided.

This step was nailed by himself two months ago, when he listened to Feng sneaking into the study at night to watch the folds.

Emperor Jianning put down the fold in his hand and looked at the step in a daze.

He remembered that he had heard Feng say to him at night, Wan Yan Zhe, you will kill me in seven years.

No more, no less, exactly seven years.

Lu Zhi turned his back, the emperor was in tears, he didn't dare to look at it.

On the mountain road leading to the border pass away from the capital, a simple carriage stopped in the shade of a lush tree, and stopped.

Ye Tingfeng pulled the common folk bun, wore an apricot-colored Luo skirt, and was squatting on the side of the road with his chest covered and vomiting.

Wen Qing stood behind Ye Tingfeng, holding the kettle in her left hand, patting Ye Tingfeng's back with her right hand, and said, "Master, are you feeling better?" ”

Ye Tingfeng shook his head, his face pale.

Two months is the time when the joy is severe. I want to vomit when I lie still, let alone bump and rush in the carriage.

"Drink some water." Wen Qing handed the kettle to Ye Tingfeng's hand, stood up and asked Litmus, "I wonder when the witch girl will catch up......

Litmus shook his head, opened the baggage, took a sour plum and handed it to Ye Tingfeng.

"Don't wait for the Witch Moon." Wu Fengtian, who was sitting in the carriage, said with a calm face, "She is unlucky to meet Wu Yang." If I had known that it was you who Wuyue wanted me to go to the mountain to pick up, I would never go. ”

Wu Fengtian has always called Sister Wuyue, but because he is angry in his heart, he calls her by her name.

When Wu Yue asked him to go to the mountains to pick up an old friend, he still wondered who it was, he had never heard Wu Yue say that she had any old friends. But I didn't want the old friend in Wu Yue's mouth to be Ye Tingfeng, who should have lived in the palace.

That's it, he entered the palace at dawn, and then asked Emperor Jianning to take back the grumpy Ye Tingfeng. But what he didn't expect was that they met Wu Yang when they were going down the mountain.

Wu Yang saw Wu Fengtian and Wu Yue mixed together, his tone was extremely cold, and he said in extreme disappointment, "You also betrayed the Wu family." ”

Without waiting for Wu Fengtian to explain, Wu Yang had already slammed his palm into Wu Fengtian's chest.

Wu Fengtian's skills were not as good as people, and he flew out of the carriage sideways.

If it weren't for Wu Yue pestering Wu Yang to divide his palm power, Wu Fengtian would already be a dead corpse at this time.

"Then you get out." Ye Tingfeng stood up, her face was still pale, she looked at Wu Fengtian and said coldly, "Don't follow me, take that burden from the car away by the way." ”

On that day, when Wu Yang came chasing Wu Yue, Ye Tingfeng was sitting in the carriage and never saw Wu Yang's face. She only heard Wu Yue yelling at Wu Fengtian to leave quickly, and the group galloped up in the carriage in the night.

In the carriage, Xie Ruyu, who couldn't move or even speak, widened her apricot eyes when she heard this.

She was just driving back to Xie Mansion at night, and who knew that her horse would collide with the oncoming carriage.

If you bump into it, you will bump into it, where would she have expected that the person driving the carriage is Wu Fengtian with blood stains on the corner of her mouth, and who would have expected that in the carriage it was Mrs. Zhaoyue, who came with her relatives.

Thinking of the rumors that had been spreading in the capital, Xie Ruyu immediately determined that these two people had eloped from the palace.

With the thought of meritorious service, she immediately picked up the short gun in her hand, and wanted to take the two of them under the horse and send them back to the palace.

So, after three moves with Wu Fengtian, who was coughing up blood, Xie Ruyu threw it into the carriage and walked together.

Wu Fengtian was not afraid that he would hear that Feng was sent back to the palace at night, what he was afraid of was that Emperor Jianning would have a misunderstanding between them, and he was even more afraid that he would be entangled with Wu Yue behind him at this time, and Wu Yang, who wanted to slap himself to death with one palm, would catch up.

"Here ......" litmus saw birds flying overhead, climbed to the roof of the carriage and blew the pigeon's whistle.

Suddenly, a carrier pigeon fell.

Litmus jumped out of the carriage and picked up the pigeon, untied the note, and handed it to Ye Tingfeng.

There are two large characters written in blood and messy strokes on the note, run!

In the past four days, Ye Tingfeng has received a total of two letters from Wu Yue, both of which told her to run quickly.

Ye Tingfeng's face turned three points pale, and beckoned Shi Rui and Wen Qing to get into the car. To Wu Fengtian beside him, he said, "If you want to get out, get out of here, don't delay me." ”

"Go in and sit down." Wu Fengtian pulled the reins of the horse, raised the whip and whipped it on the horse's back.

He was slapped by Wu Yang, and his internal strength was greatly lost, and when he returned to the capital at this time, he would definitely die if he met Wu Yang again.

It's better to follow Ye Tingfeng's side, first, Wu Yue will come to find Ye Tingfeng, and at that time, he can help him treat his injuries. The second is that Ye Tingfeng is pregnant, and he is not at ease.

Ye Tingfeng sat back in the carriage and leaned on Wen Qing's body. With a sour plum in his mouth, he frowned and closed his eyes.

As soon as the carriage moved, it shook so much that there was a wave of nausea in Feng's stomach, and when he opened his mouth, the sour plum spit out.

Litmus took a handkerchief to Ye Tingfeng to wipe the corners of her mouth, and handed over another sour plum.

Ye Tingfeng endured the feeling of dizziness, only to feel that the back of his head was numb, his brain was so wooden, and everything he saw became a double shadow.

Wu Fengtian stopped the carriage, lifted the curtain and asked Ye Tingfeng, "Mo Mei, what you need now is to recuperate, why are you messing around with Wu Yue?" ”

"He's going to kill me." Ye Tingfeng looked up at Wu Fengtian and said, "He doesn't want this kid either, I can only escape." ”

"Nonsense!" Wu Fengtian raised his voice, "How could he want to kill you!" ”

"I'm not a princess of Heqin, the real princess of Heqin was found by Madame Yu." Ye Tingfeng wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with the hem of Wen Qing's sleeve, "He thinks I'm a fine ......"

"How is it possible, you are the ...... I married from Dashun thousands of miles away"

"Then have you ever seen the true face of Princess Heqin?" Ye Tingfeng sneered, "As soon as the honor guard of the relatives stepped into the big moon, the real Princess Zhaoyue was replaced. Do you remember when Wu Yue went to look for you? That's when ......"

Wu Fengtian's face turned white, remembering that Wu Yue had indeed looked for him many times back then, and later returned to the capital with the honor guard of his relatives.

"Why are you pretending to be a princess?" Wu Fengtian was puzzled and asked, "How could Wu Yue listen to you?" ”

"Ask your sister!" Ye heard Feng roar at Wu Fengtian, "How do I know why she wants me to pretend to be the princess of Heqin?" She listens to me? I have been tricked, do I have the right to resist? ”

After covering his mouth and retching for a while, he listened to Feng Feng coldly and said to Wu Fengtian, "The last thing I want to do in my life is to step into Dayue again." The last person you want to see is the Wu family. So, you have to get out of my way, don't get in my way. ”

Wu Fengtian took a deep breath and blamed all the problems on Wu Yue. Only when Wu Yue came, he could understand why the Wu family's way of meeting now was to raise their hands and fight, and why Wu Yue asked Ye Tingfeng to pretend to be a princess.

Ye Tingfeng buried his face in the palm of his hand, and his eyes were slightly warm.

It doesn't matter, she can try to explain and communicate.

The important thing is that Emperor Jianning's feelings for her are just a mirror, and after solving the love Gu, the first thing he did was to send troops to Dashun. There is no pity for her, except for forcibly asking for love, the two have nothing to talk about.

After knowing that she was pregnant, her mother sent abortion medicine.

Everything is following the trajectory of the previous life, exactly the same......

Seeing Ye Tingfeng's shoulders trembling and crying quietly, Wu Fengtian raised his hand and gently pinched the back of Ye Tingfeng's neck.

Hearing the maple eyes close at night, he fainted on Wen Qing's body.

"Hold her steady," Wu Fengtian sighed, and said to Wen Qing and Shi Rui, "Find the inn before dark." ”“

Ye Ting Feng was weak in pregnancy, and he stopped and stopped along the way, and it was a month and a half after the group reached the border between Dayue and Dashun.

At this time, the child in Ye Tingfeng's womb was already three and a half months old, and it was past the most dangerous time.

While listening to Feng himself breathing a sigh of relief, Wu Fengtian was also relieved.

After a short break at the beginning of the border town of Otsuki, a group of five people began to make final preparations.

At this time, Xie Ruyu's acupoint had been unlocked by Wu Fengtian and he could move freely.

Xie Ruyu is the daughter of Jiangmen, and she has never left the capital since she was a child, let alone going out of such a far door.

Along the way, I occasionally remembered that I was kidnapped, and I was happy to play, obviously I was already fourteen years old, and my personality was not as calm as litmus.

The road was blocked by robbers several times, and Wu Fengtian was so angry that he wanted to throw this willful eldest lady out of the car and leave her to fend for herself, but in the end he was persuaded by Ye Tingfeng.

One is that she thinks that she is not far enough from the capital, if Xie Ruyu returns to the capital and tells Emperor Jianning about her escape from the palace, Emperor Jianning's people will be able to chase her in less than three days.

At the thought of returning to the palace to face the Emperor Jianning who had no pity for him, Ye Tingfeng was so frightened that his body trembled slightly, in addition to his heart pain.

The second is that Xie Ruyu is a girl like a flower after all, kung fu is just a skin, and she has no experience in the world.

She planned to bring Xie Ruyu to the beginning and hand her over to the garrison on the border. As long as Xie Ruyu doesn't talk nonsense, Ye Tingfeng can return to Dashun safely, and the possibility of Xie Ruyu being in danger is also avoided.

Therefore, on the second day of resting at the beginning, I heard Feng come to Xie Ruyu's room and sat down to have a long talk with Xie Ruyu.

In fact, Ye Tingfeng likes Xie Ruyu very much, with a straightforward personality, not as delicate and pretentious as ordinary girls.

Moreover, Xie Ruyu's short spear has always been admired by Fengyan at night, but it's a pity that she can't learn with her body now, otherwise she will definitely pester Xie Ruyu to teach her.

As soon as Xie Ruyu came to the town, he had a good time. This town is only twenty miles away from Dashun, and the exotic customs are very strong.

And there are many caravans, although it is not as prosperous as the capital, but it has a unique style.

Hearing that Ye Ting Feng was going to hand her over to the local garrison, Xie Ruyu's eyes widened, and her little head was infamous for a moment.

Ye Tingfeng looked at Xie Ruyu's stunned appearance and smiled, "Didn't you always want to run?" Now that it is the border, if you go with us again, you will go out of the big moon to Dashun. I have no intention of coming back......"

Xie Ruyu blinked, looked at Ye Tingfeng, who was still beautiful and moving in front of her, although she was holding a people's women's bun and wearing gray-blue coarse cloth clothes, and asked, "Madam, aren't you afraid that I will go back and tell my father, and then let my father tell my master?" ”

Along the way, it was inconvenient to speak, and several people mentioned Emperor Jianning, and they all replaced them with two masters.

Listening to Feng at night, he couldn't help but laugh every time he heard the word master, Emperor Jianning was not yet in the age of his establishment, and he was getting old.

But when Emperor Jianning's cold face flashed in her mind, her face turned white with pain, her heart was wrenched, and her wrist throbbed and throbbed.

The inn has limited conditions and no gold, silver and jade.

Ye Tingfeng picked up the coarse porcelain teacup and poured himself a cup of tea, drank it slowly, and said after relieving his face, "I went back to Dashun, and he couldn't do anything even if he wanted to." ”

"Not coming back?" Xie Ruyu's face turned pale when she heard the night and asked seriously.

She didn't understand the royal affairs, she just felt that Ye Tingfeng had feelings for Emperor Jianning, and she was also pregnant with the imperial heir, so what hurdles did she have to flee to another country?

Ye Tingfeng shook his head, and the green jade earrings hanging on his ears shook slightly, hitting the side of his face cold, "So, you can't go with me anymore." You enter the barracks, report your identity, and the garrison here will send you back to the capital safely. ”

Xie Ruyu bit her lip, looked at Wu Fengtian who opened the door and walked in, and asked, "Isn't Wu Fengtian coming back too?" ”

For a month and a half, Xie Ruyu learned from the conversation between the two that these two people had known each other for a long time and were friends, but they were not the lovers she imagined.

Wu Fengtian put the medicine bowl in his hand in front of Ye Tingfeng, raised his eyebrows and said to Xie Ruyu, "Come back, but it's only a long time later." ”

At least, he had to wait for Wu Yue to find him, he asked the matter clearly, and then handed over Ye Tingfeng to Wu Yue.

"How long is it?" Xie Ruyu's eyes rolled, and her heart was opened.

She is fourteen this year, and she will be married in a few months, because she can't enter the palace and can't become a princess, her father is already choosing a son-in-law for her in many ways.

The Xie family is a family of generals, but her father has set his sights on those ministers.

Xie Ruyu is unwilling, she has listened to her grandfather in Xie's mansion since she was a child, so she is also contaminated with the informality of some soldiers. At this time, if you want to marry her to some literati who can only dance and write, what fun is there?

The husband and wife of other people's families are both husbands and wives, which is a good picture of a fairy couple. What about her, do you want her to dance a short gun when her husband is learning calligraphy?

How to think and how not to match.

It's better to find a door to match, and it's better to be behind the door. The two have something to say, and if they have nothing to do, they can also learn martial arts.

If there is a war, she can also go with the army, go to the real battlefield to have a look, and experience the magnificent scenery of thousands of horses galloping.

Going to the battlefield and being a general who terrifies the enemy like her grandfather is Xie Ruyu's childhood dream.

Later, when he grew up, after learning that women were not allowed to join the army, Xie Ruyu's dream retreated to the next best thing, and became satisfied as long as he went to the real battlefield to see it.

But if she marries Wenchen, I am afraid that this little wish will not be realized in this life.

"You don't want to go?" Seeing that Xie Ruyu pursed her lips tightly and didn't speak, Ye Tingfeng raised her beautiful eyes and asked.

Xie Ruyu still didn't speak, and her mind was about going back to the capital or listening to Feng walking around the same night.

Ye Tingfeng looked back at Wu Fengtian, and his consciousness was to let Wu Fengtian come and talk to Xie Ruyu. She herself held a blue-and-white spoon and drank the bitter tocolytic.

Wu Fengtian sat down on the wooden bench on the side of the square table, took out a brocade handkerchief from his body and wiped the red marks on his hands that were burned by the medicine bowl, "It's been a long time, at least a year and a half." You are the Miss of the Xie family, but I'm afraid that now there are chickens and dogs jumping in the capital. ”

For a year and a half, he is thanking Ruyu. A year later, Xie Yuanxing, who went out to pull a ride, must have returned from pulling.

Xie Yuanxing would never agree to marry her to a very sour Wenchen.

As soon as his thoughts turned, Xie Ruyu raised his lips and smiled, and said to Wu Fengtian, "I want to walk with you and wait until a year and a half to come back." ”

Ye Tingfeng put down the spoon in his hand and looked at Xie Ruyu with some puzzlement.
