Chapter 68, Relief
"Similarly, if the former emperor really took a lot of care of King Changlin because he liked that woman, and even raised this child as his own son, so of the three children, he was the only one who was adopted as a righteous son......"
In the same way, even if Mr. Su is a professor at all, only Changlin Wang is the only one who is really accepted as a student. If the other two children are really inferior to him in terms of qualifications and character, it would be fine, but Lu Yuan was no worse than King Changlin, and he was not carefully taught, but he still became the crown of Changlin with King Changlin. Lu Yuan's qualifications should be better than those of King Changlin. ”
"Seriously, with the temperament of the former emperor, if the identity of King Changlin and that woman is fine, as a prince, it is okay for him to take that woman out if he wants. After all, even Mrs. Han can bring out Princess Xuanji, and it makes no sense that he wants a sinner girl and can't come out.
"So the emperor cared about the child, not the mother. At that time, neither Chiyan Shuaifu nor Qiwangfu had any children, and the female dependents of Chiyan Shuaifu were only the eldest princess of Jinyang, and she had already slashed her neck with a sword and bloodstained the steps of Chaoyang Palace. Then it is possible to have bloodline left, so that the emperor does not hesitate to destroy his image to protect it, only the Qi Wangfu. ”
Looking at the full moon that had moved high, Xiao Jingning stopped and asked softly, "I guessed right?" ”
Xiao Xin held her in his arms, gently put his chin in her neck socket, and said, "Yes, did you know it at that time?" ”
"I also guessed when you said that the emperor told you about his background." Xiao Jingning said slowly: "Actually, the emperor should not tell you about this, you must know that there is no impermeable wall in the world, and some things should always be secrets." ”
"That's fine." Xiao Xin smiled lightly: "My father told me that I will protect Brother Wang at any cost." ”
As a king, whether it is a wise monarch or a benevolent monarch, it is impossible not to have the slightest mental skill. Even tyrants are not born, they just make different choices. If it weren't for his father, who told him this on his deathbed, there was such a living example standing in front of him, always alerting him, and not to be suspicious at will, he would not dare to guarantee that he would be consistent. Therefore, Xiao Xin has always been very happy.
"Is that so?" Xiao Jingning turned around and looked at him, suddenly understood his heart, and smiled: "What if the emperor tells you?" There are two sides to the story, and you always see the good side, so you can always be generous. If you see the other side, a prince with a heavy army and the same royal blood as you, the threat is not only great. If it is known, there are many articles that can be done...... At least in the court, it is definitely not something that I can maintain the current situation by saying a few words to Xun Shoufu. So Your Majesty...... He's a very nice person. ”
"So...... I know that it shouldn't," Xiao Jingning's voice slowly lowered, as thin as a mosquito: "I know that Ruolan's ending may not be too good, but I'm still selfish...... Stayed. ”
Although Xiao Jingning's voice was very small, Xiao Xin was very close to her, and the words still fell into his ears word for word. The corners of his eyes suddenly became sour, and he hugged Xiao Jingning tightly in his arms, and his body trembled faintly.
What does the queen mean...... He really almost lost her, and he was suddenly afraid. He didn't dare to imagine what would happen to Ruolan if he woke up that day.
Maybe it's still the same as before, the emperor and queen respect each other like ice; Or maybe they will guide her and try to teach her to be like her...... But this possibility is too small, Ruolan's temperament will never become the queen after all. Or maybe he'll treat her well and look forward to the day when she will come back again......
Either way, he didn't dare to imagine, just by imagining, he already tasted the taste of despair, that feeling...... The heart is so suffocated that I can't breathe.
"It's good to be you." Xiao Xin's eyes already lit up, "Queen, I'm glad you can be selfish this time, I'm also selfish...... Even if I understand that I can't live with Ruolan, I still choose you. ”
"Ruolan, ......"
Xiao Jingning leaned on his heart, listening to the rhythmic heartbeat and the words with trills, she called softly, but she didn't say anything after all.
How can it be so easy to go against the world, even Ruolan herself said that if you want to achieve your goal, you have to pay the price. As she said before, she actually knew that she and Ruolan might not be able to get back, and the one who stayed there would not end well.
The best thing is that she replaced everything Xun Ruolan, and naturally Xun Ruolan completely exchanged with her, and they took the other party's path. The best ending is that Xun Ruolan replaced her as a lonely ghost and wandered in this world until time passed, the times changed, and she completely disappeared from this world.
No matter how much she persuaded herself to stay, she couldn't change it, she Xiao Jingning was actually a selfish and willful person.
"Ruolan will become what she will be, and I will have to pay a lot of responsibility." Xiao Xin slowly talked about his past with Xun Ruolan, "Ruolan's temperament is not suitable for being confined to this deep palace, it is her vitality that makes me unable to take my eyes off, so I begged my father and queen mother to make her my crown princess." ”
"I don't want her vitality to fade, and I don't want her to be as scheming as the other women in the harem, and that's fine. So he spoiled her, dealt with what should have been handled by her, and never taught her how to deal with these things. ”
"But I am going to ascend to the throne after all, and she has not been able to retain her vitality under my doting. After I let go, she made a lot of mistakes, and slowly fumbled to become the current situation. But I don't know when, she began to target the Changlin Mansion everywhere. ”
"It's actually me who is to blame, and if I had taught her earlier, I wouldn't have been what I was later. At this time, I was tired and didn't want to defend her in everything, hoping that she could grow up on her own and become my virtuous helper. But it's too late, and where is it so easy to meet expectations from people who have become accustomed to dependence? The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment, and gradually I didn't want to see her more. Until you show up......"
Gently smoothing her hair, Xiao Xin said softly: "After discovering the difference between you and Ruolan, I haven't struggled. What I just said is the result of thinking about it for nearly a month. In the end, I chose to be selfish and let you stay with me. ”
It was he who made Ruolan stay in the past and not grow up, but he gradually got tired of her ignorance, which made her more and more wrong in a panic, but he was unwilling to be patient to guide and teach, and now he gave her up. It would have been impossible to say that he had no guilt, but in the end he chose his heart.
Both of them are transparent people, they know each other's minds, and since they have made their choices, there is no need to regret it. After hugging each other tightly, the trace of guilt was buried deep in the bottom of his heart, and from then on, Xun Ruolan could no longer be a thorn between them.
"Queen, who will that Mr. Su be?"
"I'm just speculating, and since I can't confirm it, why bother saying it."
The two figures were obscured by the bed tent pulled down, and the bright full moon was still hanging high, and the candles illuminated everything.
