Chapter 780: Matters of the Heart (1)
Xiao Yuhan's crying was half an hour.
After crying, his voice was hoarse and he couldn't even make a sound. The tears in his eyes seemed to never end.
Xie Mingxi stayed by Xiao Yuhan's side until Xiao Yuhan cried until he fainted, and then he summoned the imperial doctor to come in and administer needles to Xiao Yuhan.
Xiao Yuhan woke up again, and it was an hour later.
A pair of eyes that are red and swollen like peaches, and it takes a little effort to open them. Xie Mingxi's familiar face came into view again.
When people are most vulnerable and helpless, a little warmth and companionship is also so precious. Xiao Yuhan raised his hand with difficulty and held Xie Mingxi's hand. I wanted to open my mouth, but my voice was completely hoarse, and I couldn't speak at all.
"You're so resting," Xie Mingxi said softly: "Over there in the mourning hall, with me, there won't be any chaos." I'll come back to see you tomorrow evening. ”
Xiao Yuhan's eyes flashed with gratitude.
Xie Mingxi pulled the corners of his mouth without self-deprecation: "Don't be busy thanking me." Now everyone is speculating about the death of the brother. I, the princess of Shu, how can I not behave well at such a time! ”
Complex and indescribable emotions flashed in Xiao Yuhan's eyes, and he held Xie Mingxi's hand a little harder.
It's hateful that her voice is hoarse from crying, and now she can't say a word. Otherwise, she would definitely tell Xie Mingxi in person.
This dragon chair is where the capable sit. Emperor Jian'an was narrow-minded and had no energy, and he was not worthy of being the Son of Heaven at all. Now that they have ended up like this, they can't all blame the vassal kings for being ruthless.
It is also a matter of course that brothers will end up with brothers.
In the future, the King of Shu became the Son of Heaven, which may be able to bring a new atmosphere to the Great Qi Dynasty. And Xie Mingxi is also more suitable than her to be the queen of the middle palace.
……
Xiao Yuhan was bedridden, and his voice was hoarse and speechless.
The death of Emperor Jian'an was not too big a blow to Empress Dowager Yu. Most of Empress Dowager Yu's sadness is pretended. Being in the heavenly family, as an ambitious queen mother, she has to pay extra attention to her reputation.
It was precisely because of Empress Dowager Yu's worries that after Xie Mingxi made a tough statement, Empress Dowager Yu's attitude towards Hanxiang Palace was greatly eased. At least, there was no such thing as ordering Concubine Mei to enter the Jiaofang Palace.
Sister Fu is not yet four years old, but she is quite precocious. I understood early what "death" is. Kneeling in the mourning hall every day, crying until his eyes were red and swollen and his voice was hoarse, which made people feel pity in their hearts.
Empress Dowager Yu did not speak, but everyone was interested in taking Xie Mingxi as the leader. For many matters in the palace, the palace maids automatically and spontaneously came to ask Princess Shu for advice.
Xie Mingxi had no choice but to take over.
She has been in charge of the court for decades and is extremely familiar with palace affairs. After taking over, everything was arranged in an orderly manner and there was no chaos.
The people who waited for Xie Mingxi to make a mistake and read the joke were doomed to be disappointed.
Empress Dowager Yu, who was waiting to find fault and provoke, was also secretly surprised.
This Xie Mingxi, when he was studying, he knew all six arts, and his intelligence was unmatched. temporarily took over the palace affairs, and it was so good and impeccable.
Empress Dowager Yu was vigilant and uneasy, and her "symptoms" soon improved.
In this way, the palace affairs returned to the hands of the Empress Dowager Yu.
Xie Mingxi sneered in his heart, and his face was not revealed.
She hated the court and did not want to be the queen. However, this does not mean that she will be rubbed like Xiao Yuhan. Now that her name is not right, she is too lazy to compete with Empress Dowager Yu.
When the name is justified in the future, it is not too late to make another move.
……
After more than ten days of wake, Sheng Hong was finally able to withdraw and get together with Xie Mingxi in the Fulin Palace.
Fulin Palace is Sheng Hong's dormitory, although it has not been in the palace in recent years, Fulin Palace is still cleaned every day. At this time, the palace is full of vegetarians, and Fulin Palace is no exception, it is white at a glance.
Sheng Hong has been busy for a few days, stubble has appeared on his smooth jaw, and his hair has grown a lot, which is slightly messy after being raised.
When husband and wife meet, they first hug each other vigorously.
After a long time, Sheng Hong let go of his hand slightly, and his eyes turned around on Xie Mingxi's face in his arms, pity and heartache: "You have lost a lot of weight." ”
In the past, in Shudi, Xie Mingxi was busy and happy every day, with a ruddy complexion and good looks. During the time I returned to the capital, I had never heard of hard work, my cheeks were thin, and I was no longer as rosy as before.
Xie Mingxi raised his head and looked at Sheng Hong deeply: "You have also lost a lot of weight." ”
Sheng Hong sighed helplessly: "King Lu and the others have been locked up, King An is sick, and he can't be used." Everything in the mourning hall had to be taken care of by me, and several elders insisted that I see it before discussing and deciding. ”
"I wish I could split one person into two. It's inevitable to lose weight. ”
Xie Mingxi stretched out his hand and stroked Sheng Hong's face, and said softly: "No matter how many things there are, you can't rush it, just take your time." The DPRK and China should not be in a hurry. You have to wait until you have a serious identity before acting, so as not to fall into the infamy of usurping power in the future. ”
Since the day of the imperial mausoleum, Xie Mingxi has officially mentioned the future for the first time.
Sheng Hong looked at Xie Mingxi with a complicated expression, and after a while, he said in a low voice: "Mingxi, I'm sorry, I'm going to break my promise." ”
On that day, I promised that I would never let you enter the harem in this life.
But at this moment, I have nowhere to hide.
"Why do you say you're sorry?" Xie Mingxi actually smiled: "If you sit on the dragon chair, I am the queen of the Middle Palace." I am illustrious and honorable. This is a good thing that everyone wants. ”
Sheng Hong's heart was faintly throbbing, and the apology in his eyes was even deeper: "Mingxi, don't say that." From the day we made it clear to me that you did not want to enter the palace. I have also solemnly promised you that I will never fight for the throne. ”
"For more than two years, our husband and wife have been in Shudi, how comfortable they are."
"I just want to live hand in hand with you all the time, with our daughter, and live happily for the rest of my life."
"It's just that the world is unpredictable. I never expected that this accident in the capital would kill the emperor and bring the three vassal kings into it. ”
"King An is young and can't afford to take on heavy responsibilities. I, the king of Shu, have no way to avoid it, so I have to rush forward. Elder Lu Ge has privately discussed with me, and when the emperor's body is buried, he will ask the queen mother to issue a decree to change the Son of Heaven. I haven't answered yet, but ......"
"Don't say anything."
Xie Mingxi suddenly opened his mouth to interrupt Sheng Hong: "Sheng Hong, between you and me, why do you need to say this again." On that day, you were willing to give up the struggle for the throne of the prince for me. Today, I would also like to enter the palace for you to be the queen. ”
All of Sheng Hong's explanations were blocked back by these few short sentences.
Sheng Hong looked at Xie Mingxi, who looked calm, for some reason, the corners of his eyes were sour and hot, and a hot hot current surged in his heart. All words can hardly describe the mood at this moment.
He could only use all his strength to take her into his arms.
The warm droplets of water from the corners of his eyes quickly dripped onto Xie Mingxi's shoulders.
