278 Win or lose
Thousands of households in Yan'an City were silent, and only the sound of beating and changing could be heard outside the high walls, which shook the night as deep as ink.
In this solidified darkness, the evening breeze blows the palace lamps under the corridor, and the shadows of the trees are sufficient, inexplicably reflecting a faint sense of gloom.
The East Palace has returned to its former quietness, not as if Ye Ruying has never lost a child, but as if she has never been pregnant with a child, but there is still a trace of blood in the air, which is not strong, but it always lingers.
Fang Xing shook off the water stains on his fingers, when he was leaving, Ye Ruyan wanted to find a clean dress for her, but Fang Xing refused, the apse of the East Palace was too big, Fang Xing couldn't go out for a while, and was trying to find a palace maid to lead the way, but he saw the prince sitting on the ground not far away, Fang Xing sighed in a low voice, and turned around and left.
"You're going to have kids."
"Yes.."
Fang Xing's voice suddenly sounded, and then he sat next to the prince on the ground. A sentence of mourning was too pale, Fang Xing thought for a long time and only thought of such a comforting word, which should be more than a hundred times better than what the crown princess said.
"This palace and adults have given this child a lot of names, but they don't need it."
"You're still young .."
Fang Xing's face did not have any expression, and she listened to the prince's low and gentle voice, she had never been so close to the prince, so she could clearly see that the prince's proud look in the past was replaced by a piece of warmth, and then sadness...
The world is impermanent, and they were once full of arrogant and flying people, but whenever they meet, no one dares to approach within a radius of ten miles with low air pressure. Therefore, Fang Xing is still more suitable for the prince who likes to put on a stinky face, and he always looks like Fang Xing owes him one hundred and eight taels of silver and does not pay it back.
"I remember when I was a child, this palace was very envious of King Mo, because my father would always call him by his name, and every time I looked at King Mo, it was not a king to a minister, but a father and a son. You will never see the satisfied smile on your father's face at that time, as if King Mo was the proudest in his life. ”
"You should too."
There was a bitter laughter in his ears, Fang Xing couldn't bear to look at it, just like the prince, looking at a large piece of orchids not far away, his eyes were full of calm and sadness, those orchids were trampled by the palace people because of today's events. I remember that they were transplanted by the prince for Ye Ruying, and now the flowers are blooming.
"So after the palace remembered, he vowed that he must be good to all the women around him, not let them feel that the years are difficult, and also care for his children equally... Alas, what Hongu did was also a failure.."
"It can be made up for in the future."
The prince lowered his head, his heart was full of resentment, and there was too much powerless sentimentality in his tone, Fang Xing never knew that the prince had such a soft side, in this majestic hundred-foot red wall, behind his infinite scenery, there was a lot of bitterness that Fang Xing never knew.
In the days when Ye Ruying married in the East Palace, if there is any deep affection between the prince and her, it is naturally not, but the prince has really looked forward to their child, and he really wants to give Ye Ruying a stability.
"It's this palace, this palace has never made Concubine Ying happy, she has been worried about the child, and this palace didn't know.."
The prince couldn't let go in the end, he blamed himself slowly and tremblingly, his voice was faint, Fang Xing didn't speak, just lowered his head and looked at the black blood stains on the hem of his clothes... As the saying goes, poor people must have something to hate, whether it is the prince, or Ye Ruying, or even Ye Ruyan, they have all deeply hurt Fang Xing..
Fang Xing didn't have a compassionate heart, but looking at their current situation one by one, he didn't feel comfortable in his heart, it was really contradictory.
"Fang Xing, you don't like Qinghuan, right?"
"What?"
The two of them were silent and stunned for a long time, the prince usually believes in his identity, don't say that he has never had such a conversation, maybe the moonlight is too beautiful tonight, the prince suddenly wants to solve the things he doubts one by one.
"It's hard to lie with a person's eyes, no matter how disguised they are... You are, and so is that person. ”
"What do you mean?"
The prince's eyes seemed to be surging with thousands of thoughts, but when the words came to his mouth, he still had reservations, but what he said was headless and brainless, Fang Xingluo was puzzled with one side of his eyes, is she, that person, Bai Yumo?
"When my father first ascended the throne, because Concubine Yue was a foreign country, the officials in the court and China were all writing against her as the queen who succeeded Gu Cang. That year, the palace remembers very clearly, it was the sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty, King Mo returned to the capital after the war, the palace was not yet eight years old, but he had learned to fight for power and profit! The Zhou family of the Duke of Guo, the Marquis Hu family, joined forces for the first time in history for a common enemy.."
"Prince! Don't say it.."
The breeze came slowly, Fang Xing's stiff back inexplicably had a thin layer of cold sweat, the prince wanted to tell the story tonight, and tell everything in the past calmly, whether Fang Xing should say that he was cute or hateful! Such a young man who is in his prime and in his prime has been walking on thin ice every day since then!
"At that time, King Mo was really miserable... The iron-blooded battlefield can defeat thousands of enemy soldiers, on the treacherous city, where can it compare to us who are in the deep imperial city to pee and pee, King Mo was still full of benevolence and morality at first, but he didn't know that his unwavering heroic spirit became his own clothed mound! ”
"So you're satisfied?"
Fang Xing's tone lost his tone, and asked the prince with great difficulty, Fang Xing knew that this world was not black and white, but she really didn't know that the prince won Bai Yumo and lost his husband's behavior, for a proud person like him, he was really happy?
Bai Yumo can triumph from the battlefield full of corpses, but he is defeated within the walls of his own protection, he loses, and he has never been a villain who plays tricks and kills each other! Losing is that he would rather live in the pain of peeling his skin with Concubine Yue every day, rather than fight back with the same means.
"Fang Xing, this palace swears! This palace has never wanted to fight for the respect of the prince, this palace is just jealous! The mother concubine taught that the father and the emperor are heaven and cannot be disobeyed, so why can King Mo speak freely? My father is always so happy to obey... Since he is the emperor of the world, why should he be his father alone! ”
"The emperor doesn't take King Mo as his son now, are you happy?"
Fang Xing asked word by word in his heart, the corners of his lips were slightly raised, his eyes were shining with disdain, the prince turned sideways, and smiled to himself, and after a while, two lines of tears slipped in vain in a pair of deep eyes that were very similar to Bai Yumo..
"Happy.. I've been really happy for a long time, and Hongu once really thought he had won! But did Hongu really win? ”
"Yes, you won."
Fang Xing's answer was very light, almost unheard. This sentence won, how many people do it contain, the crown prince will inherit the emperor's business after a hundred years of the emperor, Bai Yumo no longer believes in the feelings of the world, Concubine Yue blames herself day and night, Bai Yuheng lost her life for this, Concubine Guan buried her good years, and there are many, many more.
The prince's hands were tightly covered on his face, and his laughter was choked and blurred, he just wanted to have such a warm smile when the emperor was on his face, but he didn't want to never see it again.
"Whether you win or lose, you won't know until that day, but even if you lose, this palace doesn't want to lose too embarrassed.."
"What are you talking about?"
The prince's voice was extremely low, Fang Xing couldn't hear it clearly, and he didn't understand why the prince suddenly said this for no reason tonight, but then he saw the prince raise his head, and a ghostly sneer appeared on his tear-stained cheeks, which made people tremble.
"Therefore, this palace and King Mo are destined to die, there is no room for this matter to turn around, but if this palace can ascend the throne, it will definitely not be wiped out, but if the person on the dragon chair in the future is not this palace, Fang Xing, you can't bear this consequence."
"You're thinking too much."
The prince looked at Fang Xing's eyes with a wisp of flame dancing, it became mysterious and unpredictable in such a cold and long night, Fang Xing didn't think about it, he only felt that the current prince was speechless and rebellious for a while because he suddenly lost his child, didn't he think that Fang Xing would help Bai Yumo fight for the position in the world?
"It's that you think too little.."
"What's wrong?"
The prince suddenly stopped talking, his hands pressed his head suddenly, accompanied by a burst of pain, his whole body trembled, Fang Xing suddenly felt frightened, he never knew that the prince's headache was like this, and he was hesitating whether to take the pulse to heal it, the prince took the first step and gritted his teeth and waved his hand.
Maybe he didn't want to show too much weakness in front of Fang Xing, but the prince's pain at the moment Fang Xing could be recognized with the naked eye, it was already painful to the extreme, such a situation was pitiful, Fang Xing sat up straight in a little confusion, there seemed to be some imperceptible traces in front of him, and he was about to think about it, but there was a rustling sound behind him..
"Fang Xing.. You're so smart, can you tell Hongu who is lying! ”
"Does it matter?"
Fang Xing and the prince tacitly turned around, the place where the footsteps appeared was already empty, Fang Xing responded calmly, the voice was calm and almost ruthless, only in the prince's ears, but it was like a thunder resounding through the sky, indeed, it didn't matter.
Standing behind the two of her should be the crown princess, Ye Ruying's falling into the water, no matter what the truth is, the loss of the child is an unchangeable fact, and the status of the crown princess is also unshakable, as smart as a concubine, maybe she also understands.
"Fang wake up! Remember Hongu's words tonight. ”
"Every word is unforgettable."
Fang Xing got up slowly, squinted his eyes and glanced at the prince, and then left without looking back, the prince let out an inaudible sigh, looking at Fang Xing's back in the long night, it was like their fate in the dark, there was no end in sight, and there was no way forward.
