Chapter 354: Don't Forget, I'm a Man
Yun Qixi didn't expect that the news of the queen would come so quickly, as soon as she settled here, she came there.
The queen walked very fast with the support of the palace maid, looking at her eager expression, it seemed that she had to see it with her own eyes to believe that Shan Cong was really back.
"Sure enough, it's you!"
The queen's voice was sharp and mean, staring at Shan Cong in a wheelchair, her eyes burning with anger.
Back in this palace, he should have thought of what Shan Cong was going to face, so in the face of the queen's angry gaze, he looked indifferent, and even smiled.
"It's me."
His attitude provoked the queen's anger even more, and she pointed at him, her breath was short, and her chest rose and fell violently.
"You, how can you dare to come back?"
Shan Cong's good-looking handsome face smiled undiminished, and he answered calmly.
"It was my father who gave me the guts."
Yun Qixi glanced at him unexpectedly, at first he refused to call his father in the Chengqian Palace, but at this moment, his father blurted out.
The queen was so angry that she trembled, but she could only kill with her eyes. Since she can get the news, I believe she also knows that it is the emperor's will for Shan Cong to come back, and she rushed over just to confirm it with her own eyes, and she can't really do anything to Shan Cong.
The queen's life must not have been easy in the past two days, first she learned that Shan Liancheng was not dead, and then the emperor took back the five princes, and her son's stable throne has suddenly become dangerous.
After so many years of hard work, how many scheming, how many people have been harmed, seeing that as soon as the emperor dies, her son will ascend to the throne, and she is about to become the queen mother with her son, who knows that the situation suddenly reversed, how can she not be in a hurry?
In contrast, Concubine Hui is in a very good mood these days.
What could be more heartening than the news that my dead son is still alive? People will only know when they have lost, and no money, fame, grievances, grievances, or grievances are as important as they are alive. She had thought countless times that if God gave her a chance, she would rather have nothing at all, as long as her son was alive.
The news of the return of the five princes to the palace soon spread in the palace.
Shan Ye not only let him live back in the original Yong'an Palace, but also asked people to add a lot of money to the Yong'an Palace, as if he wanted to return all the brains he owed him all these years.
Waiting for the time to come, the time to go, Yun Qixi finally had time to take a good look at his injured leg.
It's magical. Last year, they were still hostile, and this year, he has become her brother-in-law. In fact, he has always been her brother-in-law, but she has never known it.
At that time last year, although he took her hostage, not only did he not abuse her, but he was very good to her, and in her impression, he was a gentle and temperamentless man. At that time, she thought that if they were not hostile, they could still be friends. Who knew there would be such a big change this year?
After looking at Shan Cong's legs, Yun Qixi's expression was very solemn.
Shan Cong read her expression and smiled faintly, "I know my legs won't get better, it's nothing, I'm also tired and don't want to walk, so it's okay." ”
Although these words were free and easy, Yun Qixi heard the bitterness in them.
After all, he was so young, so good, and had great ambitions, how could he suddenly let everything go?
In the blink of an eye, it was dark, and Yun Qixi was having dinner in Yong'an Palace. Today, the imperial dining room specially added dishes to the Yong'an Palace, which can be regarded as picking up the wind and washing the dust for him.
said that it was to catch the wind and wash the dust, and there were only two of them, if she was not there, Shan Cong would be alone in this empty Yong'an Palace, and it would be even more deserted to the table full of dishes.
After eating, Shan Cong said that he wanted to go out to have a look, and Yun Qixi pushed him out.
Under his guidance, she pushed him all the way to the bottom of the bell tower.
Even after being away for so long, he was still so familiar with the routes in the palace, which showed that his heart had never left.
Shan Cong looked up at the bell tower, and his expression told her that he wanted to go up.
But the bell tower was very high, and it was not easy for him to go up in his current condition.
Yun Qixi thought about it, walked up to him and squatted down, "Come on, I'll carry you up." ”
Shan Cong stared at her thin back and smiled bitterly, "You carry me?" ”
Yun Qixi turned around, smoothed the wind-blown hair behind his ears, and smiled at him.
"What's wrong? Look down on me, don't you? At the beginning, I carried Agumu on my back, and I climbed up such a high Hongmei Peak, and there was nothing that could not be done, everything was possible. ”
Shan Cong seemed to be touched, "Yes, everything is possible, you can even surrender thousands of troops, what else can't you do?" ”
Yun Qixi smiled brightly, "Yes, so I can do it, come on, these dozen steps are nothing." ”
"I'll do it anyway." A voice suddenly sounded not far away.
They turned around at the same time, only to see Shan Jingyan walking slowly from the night.
The two brothers looked at each other, each with a faint smile, and in Yun Qixi's opinion, there was not the slightest hostility.
She guessed that even if the relationship between the two brothers was not deep in the past, it was not bad, after all, Shan Jingyan was such a person who had no quarrel with the world, and he did not pose a threat to anyone, if Shan Cong's heart insisted on anything to him, the only thing might be because he was the son of the queen.
"Jing Yan, you?"
Yun Qixi swore that she really didn't look down on Shan Jingyan, she just felt that he was too weak.
Shan Jingyan approached and looked at her with clear and dazzling smiling eyes. Bent down and put his hand on her shoulder like a friend, "Tanabata, don't forget, I'm a man." ”
After speaking, he squatted in front of Shan Cong, "Come up." ”
Shan Cong didn't move, and Shan Jingyan said again, "It's not the first time." ”
The implication is that he also betrayed him in the past.
Perhaps it was precisely because of his sentence "It's not the first time" that reminded him of his childhood memories that he finally lay on Shan Jingyan's back.
Shan Jingyan is right, he is a man, not so weak and can't help it,
In fact, Shan Cong is slightly smaller than him, but his body looks stronger than him, but there is no pressure for him to carry him up a few steps.
Shan Jingyan carried Shan Cong to the bell tower, and the little eunuch who followed Shan Jingyan followed and moved the wheelchair up.
The bell tower is windy, but it is a good place, and the view from above suddenly widens a lot, and you can even see the bustling night scene of lanterns hanging on the street outside the palace.
Shan Jingyan put Shan Cong into the wheelchair and sat down, Shan Cong's eyes looked into the distance, and there seemed to be light flashing in his eyes.
In the past, he also liked to stand here, but after so many years, when he stood here again, his state of mind was very different.
For a while, no one spoke, and the two brothers hadn't seen each other for so many years, and I was afraid that they didn't know where to start if they had something to say.
It was still Yun Qixi commenting on the beautiful night scene in front of him, and the two brothers gradually began to speak.
From their conversations, Yun Qixi restored many fragments from many years ago in his mind.
Shan Jingyan smiled and said, "You are younger than me, but you always rob me of things, and I can't do anything about you." ”
Shan Cong smiled, "Whoever let you have more, I have to rob it if I can't get it." ”
Although these words sounded a bit-for-tat, looking at their expressions with a smile, Yun Qixi knew that they were not targeting anything, they were just telling about the past.
As the son of the queen, Shan Jingyan naturally has more than Shan Cong, and it is normal for Shan Cong, who was a child at that time, to be jealous.
Those things in the past, crying, laughing, arguing, and making trouble, are all in the past for them now, and now that they think about it, they only have a smile.
Shan Jingyan has never had so many fights and right and wrong in his heart, he values love and righteousness, and does not fight for fame and fortune, so his smile is always pure without a trace of impurities.
In contrast, Shan Cong's smile is not so pure, Yun Qixi knows that he is not really letting go of everything, after all, it is ten years of wandering, and in the past ten years, I believe that he has also suffered a lot and suffered a lot of injuries before he has today's achievements, and it is not a holy decree that can heal his wounds.
Perhaps, just leave it to time!
Not long after, a little eunuch hurriedly came to the bell tower, bowed down and said, "Fourth prince, the queen has something to ask you to come over." ”
Asking Shan Jingyan to go over is just an excuse, probably just because he doesn't want to see his son stay with the person he hates.
Although Shan Jingyan's three views are too different from his mother's, after all, he is an obedient son, and his mother told him to go, and he had to go.
He carefully considered the matter of Shan Cong going down the bell tower, so he left the eunuch next to him and asked him to carry Shan Cong for a while.
After Shan Jingyan left, the eunuch waited under the bell tower, and there were only two people on the bell tower, Yun Qixi and Shan Cong.
Of course, Shan Cong could understand what the queen meant, so he smiled.
"Fifth prince, now that you are back, do you feel that life outside the palace is not so bad, and it may be much easier than in the palace?"
Shan Cong looked at the depths of the night, did not answer for a long time, half-squinted, half-loud before he said, "I understand what you mean." ”
Yes, Shan Cong is smart, he should understand what she means.
Today is only the first day of his return, and he can already feel the unkindness of these people in the palace who look at him unpleasantly, and he should gradually understand how helpless and well-intentioned the emperor was in making that decision.
"I used to like it the most, standing tall and seeing far away."
"Yes, stand tall and see far." Yun Qixi tightened the robe on his body, walked to the side of the bell tower, and also looked into the distance.
Shan Cong stretched out his hand and pointed to an open area not far ahead, "When I was young, I liked to play football there, and later, I was exiled there. ”
He took the initiative to mention this saddest past of him, Yun Qixi did not interject, and listened to him quietly.
"Over the years, I have only one thought, one day, to come back here and show my father that even without his protection, I can live a wonderful life. I'm going to take back what belongs to me, to trample back the man who once trampled me underfoot. But is it ridiculous? Now I can't even stand up, so how can I trample others under my feet? ”
