072. Helpless

On the green grass of the Mulan paddock, Qing'er took Concubine Yi for a walk.

"Eniang, please punish Qing'er." Qing'er knelt respectfully in front of Concubine Yi.

"E-Niang knows that you have never been a reckless child, and there must be a reason why you do this. You left at the beginning, and now you come back, it must be all for Lao Jiu, right? Concubine Yi stretched out her arms and leaned over to pull Qing'er up. The gentle and noble solemn face reveals a look of love.

"Yes, it's all for him. Eniang, if it's because of Qing'er, you can't ......" Qing'er wanted to speak and stopped.

"Silly girl, in fact, what Eniang wants is only your peace and happiness, how can she force everything to be as expected? When Yinqi was injured and fell to the root of the disease, I saw through it, nothing is more important than 'peace'. Concubine Yi took Qing'er's hand, two equally excellent and high-end women, looking forward to and asking for the same as ordinary mothers and wives: not seeking wealth and wealth, but only wishing the loved ones a safe life.

"Eniang, I have good news for you, but you can't be too excited!" Qing'er took Concubine Yi's hand and looked left and right, and Rou'er and Qinglong, who were standing two meters away, shook their heads at Qing'er.

"Oh, what are you hiding from me, girl? If there's something good, don't tell me earlier, what E-Niang wants to hear most now is good news. Concubine Yi looked at Qing'er with interest.

"Eniang, you have two grandchildren." Qing'er whispered in Concubine Yi's ear, blushing and lowering her head.

"You girl, why didn't you say it earlier!" Concubine Yi said angrily. He said distressedly: "When you give birth, it must be very hard, right?" ”

"Well, my grandfather died at that time, if it weren't for these two children, I'm afraid I really wouldn't have survived." In just a few sentences, it covers too much. The bitterness and pain are no longer expressible in words.

"You've suffered. Qing'er. My daughter! Concubine Yi hugged Qing'er tightly in her arms and said in a low voice.

Lying in Concubine Yi's arms, Qing'er finally couldn't hold back her tears. "E-Niang ......"

"Hey, E-niang is here, I'll go and tell the emperor to let you go back to the house. You've suffered enough. ”

"Hmm." Qing'er agreed with peace of mind. Lying in Concubine Yi's arms, I felt the love of my mother again, and my heart was as soft as if I was in the clouds.

Concubine Yi hugged Qing'er tightly, this strong and kind woman, made her feel sorry for her in her heart.

"Qing'er, Lao Jiu has had a lot of women in the past few years, don't you blame him." Concubine Yi asked worriedly.

"E-niang, who is not the man of this heavenly family who is not like this?" One generation and one pair for a lifetime', Nalan Rongruo can't do it, let alone Yinyu. There is no point in forcing this, and I know that in his heart, I am the most important, and it is enough. Qing'er smiled faintly in Concubine Yi's arms.

Before herself, Yinyu already had a woman, this reality cannot be changed, after herself, Yinyu has a woman, she will mind more or less, but she can see it, just because this man is too important in her heart, and his happiness and peace are more important than everything in her heart.

Sighing softly and raising her head, Qing'er changed the topic, "Eniang, do you know who the woman you love the most in Huang Ama's heart?" ”

"Of course I know, you kid, ask this." Concubine Yi smiled and shook her head, but there was a trace of bitterness in her eyes. In the emperor's heart, the woman he loves the most is naturally the first queen, his childhood sweetheart's wife. The only one who can make him forget until death is his wife. Wife, such an ordinary title, has been a desperate dream for a lifetime.

Looking at Concubine Yi's deliberately concealed sadness, Qing'er deeply regretted that she had said the wrong thing, and she didn't know how to persuade her, so she could only hang her head deeply and remain silent.

"Qing'er, E-Niang, thank you." Concubine Yi gathered her thoughts, leaned sideways, took Qing'er's hand, and patted it in her palm. Her son is her lifeline, and Qing'er is her son's lifeline, for this, she also has to say this to Qing'er. "People outside look at the Heavenly Family is naturally dazzling, but who can know that this Heavenly Family is the most ruthless. Qing'er, E-Niang handed over Yinyu to you. ”

"Eniang, don't worry, if Qing'er is there, Yinyu is there, and Qing'er will give up her life to protect him." Qing'er said firmly to Concubine Yi.

"Silly boy, E-Niang wants you to be safe, only when you are safe, Yinyu can be safe! Do you understand? Concubine Yi said solemnly.

"E-niang." Qing'er lowered her head embarrassedly, and when she raised her head again, her tone was resolute: "Qing'er understands, don't worry." ”

"I'll go and ask the emperor to let you go back to your house and reunite with Yinyu." Concubine Yi looked into the distance and said fixedly. High up, her husband, she has to 'beg' him in order to make their son happy, the ruthlessness of this heavenly family, she can only taste this life. If there is an afterlife, she will never want to have anything to do with this heavenly family anymore.

Yinxiang and Qing'er sat by the stream.

The clear stream flows happily, reflecting the white clouds in the sky. It was like the past, and now the situation has changed.

Yinxiang let out a long sigh, and then lay on the grass with his arms on his pillow.

"Qing'er, just leave, why do you want to come back?" Yinxiang looked at Qing'er, at this time her temperament was still the same, her beauty was still the same, but she was trapped in right and wrong and couldn't pull out.

"Senior brother, I'm all back, what's the use of talking about this? Are you okay? "As soon as he was released, he went up to the north with the emperor, and I don't know if his body can withstand it. Qing'er was very worried.

"I'm fine, I trained in Gubeikou a few years ago, and I haven't suffered anything! It's you, you've suffered a lot over the years. I heard Rong Yu say yesterday that my grandfather passed away, and I really don't know how you survived your sex. Those two little ones are all right. ”

"Senior brother, although you are still young, after all, your body and bones are important, so let's go back this time and find the imperial doctor to take a good look. Grandpa Qin is overseas, and his body is not as good as before. Back then, I was too willful and took my grandfather and Grandpa Qin overseas, but my grandfather didn't return to his roots, and Grandpa Qin probably couldn't come back in his lifetime. Alas! If it weren't for those two little ghosts, it would have been a few days. Speaking of the Imperial Doctor, I thought of Grandpa Qin again, this old man who gave all his thoughts and love to himself, is far away in the world at the moment, and I don't know when I will see him again.

"Missed them? Back then, you played with Rong Yu's son as a thing, but now it's been so long since you think about it. Yin Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"yes, I miss them so much, I thought I would go back to them soon, but I didn't expect this to be the case now."

"Yes, too much has changed, in the past three or four years, it can be said that it has changed dramatically, especially you."

"Huh?"

"Back then, Huang Ama pointed you out to the ninth brother to use you to use the Hu family to blackmail him, but today's Hu family has become the most feared by Huang Ama today, so Huang Ama separated you from the ninth brother, that's why."

"Senior brother, don't say these words again." Time has passed, and who would have thought that there were two situations at the beginning and now. At the beginning, she was bent on fighting for freedom, but now she is trapped in the palace, alas, this encounter is really involuntary and involuntarily.

"Is the good news good? Are the kids all right? Qing'er asked in a low voice. saw Yinxiang make a gesture.

"They're all fine. How are you? Qing'er! Yinxiang looked at Qing'er and gestured with his eyes, there was someone behind the big stone. Qing'er looked over inquiringly, Yinxiang raised his index point to the sky, and shook his head with a wry smile on the corner of his lips.

"I'm fine. I know Huang Ama's current difficulties, after all, the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat. Qing'er said in the same tone.

"You don't blame Huang Ama?" Yinxiang asked with a wink.

"Weird, of course weird." Before he finished speaking, he saw Yinxiang's eyes, Qing'er smiled softly, and then said: "His old man has educated his sons so well and so well, except for Yinyu, but he pointed me out to Yinyu, of course he blames him." As soon as she finished speaking, Qing'er bowed her head and chuckled, and then raised her head to look at Yinxiang and said, "Isn't it?" Senior brother. ”

"Come on. I don't know who is so good with Brother Jiu that honey blends oil? I'm talking here! Yinxiang pouted and shook his head.

"Senior brother, if I go to live overseas with Yinyu, will you miss me?"

"I don't want to, I want to go quickly!" Yinxiang joked, and the atmosphere gradually relaxed.

"But I'll miss you, or you might as well come with us."

"I'm not going, I'm alone with you two?"

"No, there are a lot of people there, Brother Xue's family is also there, Brother Rong Yu will also go, you can go too, Senior Brother!" Qing'er tugged at Yinxiang's sleeve and begged.

"Okay, I'll go, and I'll take Jiayin and my sons with me then." Yinxiang shook his head as he spoke. I knew in my heart that it was just for Huang Ama to hear, and there would be no result. If Huang Ama knew that he had two grandsons living overseas, he didn't know what would happen, let alone add two more sons.

"You promised me that you won't go back." Qing'er said happily.

"Well, I promised you." Qing'er, I can promise you that I can't do it, but it's not something I can master.

Leaving right and wrong, this is what they want to do most now, they also love freedom, but they have to get caught up in a power struggle, and there is only deep regret under this helplessness.

Yinxiang's gaze fell on the boulder, where the people had already left.

"Is it okay to keep the ribbon?" Yinxiang's voice was inaudible.

"He's very good, he has a good time with those two little guys every day, but he didn't know that the second brother likes children so much."

"The sect has already treated him as if he were dead. He was free. The two people who looked at each other smiled, both with happy expressions.

"Senior brother, Sibeile, he ...... now" Qing'er wanted to speak and stopped, she was a little annoyed, but she couldn't bear it. Before she returned to Beijing, she received news that she would take Rou'er to see the phoenix after entering Beijing.

"What are you asking? I only know that the fourth brother is very fond of Nian now. Yinxiang said with a smile, it's not a secret now, this trip, Yinzhen came with Nian's alone.

"In the past few years, the four Baylors have released all the people to be officials. Now that Nian's brother has become the governor of Sichuan, and Dai Duo has also gone to Sichuan, Sibeile is really shrewd, far-sighted, and strong. How is Yinyu his opponent? Qing'er scoffed.

"Brother Jiu's mind is on this, Qing'er, after marrying you, Brother Jiu didn't think about anything else, but he was just helping Brother Starling for love. He did his best, too. "What a Yinyu who doesn't have any position and doesn't hold any ministry can do is help Yinyu financially and mentally.

"What I'm most afraid of now is the word 'financial resources'." Yinxiang opened his mouth leisurely. In the past few years, Noldo's financial resources have been consumed to build the Rehe Palace and the Changchun Garden, as well as the increasingly serious corruption of officials, compared to the 42 years of the treasury clean-up deficit, I am afraid that the current treasury is even more empty.

And the Hu family, which is full of financial resources, is a big trouble in Kangxi's heart at this time.

"Senior brother, you know that I don't participate in those things in the court, but I just complain. The Hu family had already transferred their financial resources out of the Qing Dynasty. Overseas is the last foothold of the Hu family. ”

"Even if there is no transfer, the Hu family will not spend all their financial resources to help the starling. Huang Ama is just afraid that Brother Jiu will make a desperate bet in order to go overseas with you. Yinxiang said that he and Qing'er were speechless for a long time.

"Senior brother, if we were all ordinary people, life would be much more ordinary. But if we were all ordinary people, wouldn't we be much happier? Qing'er picked up the stone and threw it into the river, and the river rippled lightly, swinging in circles and circles, and finally fell silent.

"It's going to be much happier than it is now." Yinxiang slowly closed his eyes. I can't do it in this life, ordinary happiness is easy for ordinary people, but for him, the thirteenth elder brother of the Qing Dynasty, the happiness of ordinary people is out of reach.

The clear and quiet water is still flowing happily.

In the sky, the white clouds are still the same.
