In the past three years, it is not that there are no concubines who have moved their minds, but after the emperor disposed of a concubine with merciless thunderous means, everyone understood a truth.

That is, the emperor is really ruthless, not only to keep filial piety to the queen mother, but more to vent his anger to the queen who died of illness many years ago.

If it weren't for the fact that the Queen Mother had been forced to go on a hunger strike, I was afraid that this harem would be even more empty.

......

The emperor walked quietly along the bluestone path of the imperial garden, his steps were slow, and his tall figure no longer seemed to be tall and was pulled out by the sun that had turned west.

Father-in-law Tian followed with two little eunuchs not far away.

A little further ahead is the plum garden, although the plum trees in this season are really nothing to look at, but the emperor still comes to visit every day after dinner and dinner, and then stays quietly in the garden for a while, almost rain or shine.

After the emperor ascended the throne, he ordered someone to expand the plum garden, and planted more than 20 plum trees with the queen.

Now, Queen Yan is gone, but these plum trees are growing better and better, and they are really things and people.

Although the emperor has never said a word, it seems that since the death of Empress Yan, this plum garden has been regarded as a forbidden place by everyone by default, except for the emperor and His Royal Highness King Rui, no one dares to enter this plum garden at will.

Qin Moyu saw from a distance that the emperor was standing in front of a plum tree with lush foliage, his hand on the trunk of the plum tree in a daze, his back looked indescribably lonely and lonely.

"Your Highness!" Gonggong Tian threw the dust in his hand back and stepped forward to salute Qin Moyu.

"Father-in-law Tian, please get up!" A gentle smile appeared on Qin Moyu's face.

Thanks to the fact that Father-in-law Tian has been by his father's side all these years, Father-in-law Tian is an old man who has followed his father's side, and he has won the trust of his father, and he is indeed worthy of his father's trust in him.

"Your Highness, please wait a moment, the slave will go and pass the word to His Highness!" Father-in-law Tian still bent down slightly, and said with a smile.

"Don't work my father-in-law, I'll just go over by myself!" Qin Moyu glanced at the emperor's figure and walked towards the plum garden.

"Tian Qing! Do you think the queen will be resentful all these years?" Hearing the footsteps approaching behind him, the emperor thought it was Gonggong Tian, he sighed faintly, and asked without looking back.

"Father, it's a son!" Qin Moyu's footsteps did not stop, he walked to the emperor's side and stopped.

My father has just passed the age of confusion, and his temples have already given birth to gorgeous hair, and he looks even older than ordinary people of the same age.

After the death of the queen mother, the father was even more sad and couldn't sleep at night, and later although under the conditioning of the imperial doctor, the symptoms of insomnia were slightly better, but the blue and black under the eyes and the big bags under the eyes could not be eliminated.

And in the past two years, my father seems to have become more and more nostalgic for old things.

Just now, his father didn't even recognize his footsteps, and Qin Moyu couldn't help but be secretly surprised and worried.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, turned around, the sun was a little dazzling, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled lovingly at Qin Moyu.

Over the years, only this child can still make him feel some comfort, this child is smart and smart, but his mind is pure, and he is also affectionate.

"Ah Yu is here! Just accompany my father to walk in this garden! The emperor said softly.

"Good!" Qin Moyu responded with a smile and stepped forward to support the emperor.

"These plum trees were planted by your mother and me back then, your queen mother likes to enjoy the shade in this garden in the summer, and she also likes to enjoy the snow and paint here in the winter!"

The emperor pointed to the plum trees around him and said, Qin Moyu didn't remember how many times his father had said these words to him.

The emperor didn't seem to remember what he had said to Qin Moyu before, and Qin Moyu listened carefully every time, and then recalled those happy and warm memories with his father.

Qin Moyu knew that the plum trees in this garden were planted by his father and mother together, and when he was a child, his father and mother also liked to take him to this garden to play.

His father would put him on his lap every time, and then tell him the stories of him and his mother with a smile, and it seemed that his father would never finish telling them, and he couldn't tell them enough.

The queen mother will personally make tea for their father and son on the side, and then paint portraits of them, and occasionally reprimand him for his naughty mischief, or complain a few words about his father's excessive arrogance to him, and the father never refutes the mother's complaints, but while scraping his nose, he laughs and admits his mistakes to the queen mother, and then continues to pamper him next time.

……

Those days were the most precious and beautiful days in Qin Moyu's heart, but those days were buried forever in his memory with the death of his mother.

Father doesn't seem to be in good spirits these days, he heard Father-in-law Tian say that Father Tian has been staying in the plum garden for a longer and longer time recently.

If it hadn't been for the injury of Ning Shuang some time ago, he would have opened up with her and asked her to show her father in person, it seems that he would have to talk to that girl in two days!

Qin Moyu looked at the emperor's slightly rickety back, and there was a faint worry and uneasiness in his heart.

"Yes! These plum trees are growing very well now, and the queen mother must be very relieved to know that her father has taken good care of them. Qin Moyu said with a smile.

He stretched out a hand and stroked the trunk of a plum tree beside him, and said, "This one is the father, the one just now is the queen mother, and the one next to it is Ah Yu, they are all growing well." He paused for a moment and turned his clear gaze to the emperor: "The queen mother is looking at the emperor every day, so the emperor must take care of himself, so the queen mother will not worry!" ”

When he was young, because his father and mother liked it here, he naturally liked it too, but he was too young to tell stories, he couldn't paint, he couldn't make tea, he didn't know how to let his father and mother know that he also liked it here, he thought about it for a long time, and he finally thought of a unique way of expression.

He was excited about the method he had come up with, so he found an opportunity, and secretly ran to the plum garden with the little eunuch alone, and found three adjacent plum trees that he thought were the best-looking, and after a long day's effort, he finally used the small dagger given to him by his father to engrave them crookedly on the tree: Father, Mother, and himself.

He felt that he was very clever and very happy, he ran stupidly from this tree to another tree, and then from another tree to the third tree, and so back and forth to admire his masterpiece for a long time, and then he couldn't wash his hands, and ran back to the palace to find the queen mother, and then took the queen mother to the imperial study to find his father who was watching the folds, and hurriedly pulled them to the plum garden to see his masterpiece.

Sure enough, after they saw his masterpiece, his father laughed and picked him up and kissed him fiercely, praising him for his intelligence and ability!

At that time, my father made a holy decree to personally enshrine these three trees as imperial trees, and asked Father-in-law Tian to arrange a special person to take care of these three trees.

The queen mother seemed a little helpless at the time, but she also praised him.

Just after praising it, the queen mother also told him that the little plum tree is actually afraid of pain and needs to be protected, and the queen mother said that she hopes he can take on the responsibility of protecting these little plum trees in the future.

He didn't quite understand what the queen mother said, but he still patted his chest and promised the queen mother that he would protect these little plum trees in the future.

Later, he also had a fight with Qin Mosong because he once folded a plum blossom.
