Chapter 9: The Royal Brothers

Xuan Ye couldn't help crying and laughing when he heard Su Lian's complaining tone: "The way she looks is all made by herself." The disease didn't go away so quickly, it was because she was too heavy on her mind and too calculating in her heart, so she collapsed! Is this kind of thing to blame? ”

"But I heard that the queen injured her body in a miscarriage back then......" Su Lian asked weakly.

Xuan Ye was even more displeased, "It was she who was careless and recklessly fell, and I didn't blame her for being extraordinarily gracious!" ”

Su Lian couldn't help but conspire theories, blinked a pair of curious eyes and asked, "Is it really her accidental?" Could it be that someone harmed him? ”

Xuan Ye immediately glared at Su Lian, and pretended to be angry and reprimanded: "I see that you have seen too much of the history of those inner curtains, so you will be cranky!" Don't read those messy books in the future! ”

Su Lian said coquettishly: "I'm not idle and bored!" You have to find something to do to kill time. ”

Xuan Ye was silent for a while, "There is a troupe in the palace, why don't you move a troupe to the palace." ”

Su Liannu said: "I don't like to listen to dramas, babbling, I don't understand!" ”

"And what do you want?" Xuan Ye asked angrily.

Su Lian suddenly showed a flattering face: "I want to go back to my mother's house to see!" "Darshan was spanked, and he didn't know if he could get out of bed now, and Arin didn't know what was going on.

"Nonsense!" Xuan Ye kept most of his face calm, "Stay in the palace honestly, don't go anywhere!" ”

When Su Lian heard this, he immediately turned around and turned the back of his head to Xuan Ye. Could it be that she doesn't even have personal freedom now? Just go to Ussuri Mansion to take a look, and it's not an escape, not to mention that if she really wants to escape, how can he restrain him without saying a word?! Asking for his opinion, Su Lian thought he had shown enough respect! This is not the palace, what's wrong with secretly going back to see your family?!

Xuan Ye let out a long sigh, a little out of place with Su Curtain, stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her waist, and said softly: "It's not very stable outside when you come in, and I'm really not at ease!" ”

Su Lian snorted, what's unstable, this is Gyeonggi, not on the southern battlefield!

Embroidered with the silver and red shadow veil of peach entwined branches, through the night like washing, the light of the red candle on the purple gold plate dragon ear candlestick transmits, even the light is blurred, and the shadow is sufficient. Xuan Ye gently stroked the green silk hanging on Su Curtain's white jade-colored shaved shoulders, and there was hidden anger in his soft eyes: "Xu is a thief in the south who scratches his teeth, Xu is the restless Zheng family in Taiwan, and he may be a ...... after the old ministers of the former dynasty."

Su Curtain faintly for a while, he should be talking about the previous assassination, under the oblique light of the candle flame that is not clear, the oblique scar on his shoulder is so obvious, extending to the ribs under his armpits, to this day, Su Curtain still remembers the blood gushing out.

Slightly leaning into his arms, political matters, can not say good and evil, for thousands of years, there is only success and failure. Reaching out with his slender hand, he couldn't help but touch the deep scar, down his shoulder blades, all the way down to the ribs, so long, so deep......

Xuan Ye's hand covered Su Lai's hand, "That time was also my negligence——, just out of Yude Garden—" He looked down at Su Lai's watery eyes, "If it weren't for you, I'd only be afraid—"

"At that time, ......" Su Lian was a little puzzled, he was obviously in a coma at that time!

Xuan Ye smiled slightly: "I don't remember clearly, I only remember ......" He lowered his head and sniffed Su Liang's shoulder, "There is such a faint fragrance of peach blossoms, which is always lingering." Then I heard Fuquan's voice—" His voice froze slightly, "Fortunately, Fuquan didn't have any objections, otherwise it would-be—"

Hearing that he even doubted Fuquan, Su Lian couldn't help but say, "He's your own brother!" ”

Xuan Ye said with a straight face: "The Emperor's Family, where did the brothers come from?" What's more, I was assassinated after I left Yude Garden. The tide of the war in the south has only slightly reversed, and I have a ...... The crown prince is young, how can he control him, a young and powerful prince?! ”

He was so suspicious...... Su Lian was a little unimaginable, obviously everyone only rumored that the emperor treated his brother well, and he was honored as a prince, and he gave the emperor a lot of honor, which made Funing and the two of them double the emperor's grace. But in fact, he was so wary of his brothers, especially the older Fuquan. Once, Su Lian couldn't see Fuquan's loneliness, he loved horses, and he must have the heart to gallop on the battlefield, but he could only spend time in hunting. His biological mother was a concubine in the palace, but she couldn't see each other all the time...... No matter anything, he did not dare to fight with the emperor's younger brother.

"But, in fact, Prince Yu has no intentions!" Su Lian couldn't help but remind.

Xuan Ye snorted, "Indeed—not now." ”

When Su Lian heard this, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, he only said that he didn't have it now, but he still doubted him in the future?!

"Even your own brothers have to be on guard like this, Xuan Ye, aren't you tired?" Su Lian asked faintly.

Xuan Ye lowered his head and buried his head in Su Wei's hair, "How can you not be tired...... I am the Son of Heaven......" Sniffing deeply the wisps of fragrance in Su Curtain's hair, as if it could relieve fatigue, four words came out of his mouth: "Fortunately, there are you." ”

Su Lian's heart warmed slightly, "Me? ”

"Susu." Xuan Ye called softly, "I will only treat you well in the future, and you are not allowed to care about others!" ”

was obviously so tired, but it hit Su Lian's heart heavily. Isn't it a kind of sadness that no one can trust in your life completely? The bright yellow bedclothes, the silver thread on the top is secretly embroidered with five claws and nine dragon patterns, and the leader is a piece of gold, which can only be enjoyed by the emperor. For thousands of years, for that unique throne, I don't know how many dry bones and blood have fallen, and the emperor who can really reprint a stroke in the annals of history, which one is not alone?

Sticking to his arms, listening to his steady heartbeat and the sound of blood rushing in his veins, Su Lian was speechless for a long time, only hearing the sound of the Western bell outside the curtain.

"Try to believe it," Su Lian said suddenly...... "If you can't even trust your own brothers, who else can be trusted?" "History records that neither Prince Yu Fuquan nor Prince Gong Changning coveted his imperial position.

Xuan Ye didn't say a word, only let out a long breath.

"Presumably, as an emperor, I have done too many things of grace before; But as a brother, you probably have never done the care you should have, right? Su Lian said slowly.

Xuan Ye was slightly stunned, it is true, he is already familiar with the way of the emperor's grace and power, and he treats his brothers the same.

Su Lian praised a person of Fuquan's character in his heart, thinking of what he wanted - the wish to fight on the battlefield, Su Lian should not speak, and the only thing he could do was ......

"I remember that the biological mothers of the two kings were all raised in Shoukang Palace." Su Lian said slowly.

Xuan Ye snorted and said, "In this regard, I have never treated their biological mother badly. Honoring the imperial examination of Dong Eshu Concubine as Concubine Ning, Chang Ning's mother Concubine Chen is a cloth banner, so it is not appropriate to add a honorific title, but they also live in Shoukang Palace to be raised. ”

Su Lian shook his head and said, "No children are willing to be separated from their biological mothers, no matter how good they are in the palace, they can't see each other often after all." ”

"Don't you mean—" There was a hint of surprise in his voice.

"Why can't you let the two concubines go to the palace to live for the rest of their lives?" Su Lian said with a smile.

Xuan Ye couldn't help frowning, "There has never been a precedent in this dynasty for a concubine to leave the palace to raise her. ”

"Why can't you make this exception?" Su Lian persuaded like this, why didn't he plan for his future, so he naturally spared no effort, "It is reasonable, and it is all filial piety!" Will there still be any objections? ”

Xuan Ye frowned deeply, "I'm afraid the Empress Dowager won't agree easily, and the Empress Dowager is too-this matter of the inner palace is not completely up to me." However, Su Lian's proposal, Xuan Ye was taken to heart, indeed, if Concubine Ning and Concubine Chen were allowed to go to their son's palace to raise themselves, there is no doubt that Fuquan Changning would be grateful to Dade. It's not that Xuan Ye doesn't have the intention of reusing these two brothers, but if he is unstable today, he doesn't worry about letting the two of them have too high prestige in the army, and he is also afraid that the high merit will shock the lord's ministers!

Now that the rebellion of the three feudatories has seen victory, it will not be possible to let Fuquan Changning remain idle forever in the future. Giving him reunion with his biological mother can be regarded as a great reward.

"Rong Zhen, think about it again, take it slowly." Xuan Ye was silent for a long time before he said slowly.

Su Lian yawned, and after saying these words for a long time, it was late at night, and she was also very sleepy, twisted her body to find a stable position in Xuan Ye's arms, and closed her eyes.

Xuan Ye couldn't sleep for a long time, looking at the little woman in his arms, with a lazy face, he couldn't help but bow his head and drop a light kiss, this woman belonged to him.
