Previous Chapter

"Guanyin, what are you talking about?" Li Shimin's heart jumped suddenly, and he glared at his wife in amazement.

"Your Majesty, you have called her name more than once in your dreams." Empress Eldest Sun glanced at him with a slight troll, and a faint smile appeared on her face.

The expression on Li Shimin's face suddenly changed from stunned to sluggish, he actually called Yang Qiniang's name in a dream? Facing his wife's teasing gaze, he suddenly felt an indescribable embarrassment and embarrassment in his heart.

Yang Qiniang is his brother-in-law, he killed her husband and son, and as a result, he missed her in his heart, which ......

"Your Majesty doesn't have to feel embarrassed, emotions are a matter that no one can say, not to mention that Yang Qiniang is a rare woman in this world who is smart and open-minded."

"The tragedy of her life can be said to have started from the concubine and our Li family, the concubine can't stand her, and our Li family can't stand her."

"Your Majesty has feelings for her, in a sense, it can be regarded as a kind of repayment, the concubine has never mentioned this matter over the years, just for fear of embarrassing Your Majesty."

"But now the concubine can no longer accompany Your Majesty, if she doesn't clarify this matter again, it may be a lifelong regret for Your Majesty and for her."

"The concubine hopes in my heart that after I leave, there will be someone who really understands Your Majesty and knows Your Majesty by your side, Yang Qi Niang, the concubine believes that she is that person."

"It's just that her identity is different from others, Your Majesty wants to accept her, it is estimated that she will encounter some resistance, not only external obstacles, but even herself, most of the time and a half will not be able to pass the hurdle in her heart."

"For this reason, the concubine specially wrote a letter, after the concubine left, His Majesty handed over the letter to her, the concubine believed that after she read it, she should agree to enter the palace to serve Your Majesty, the letter was placed in Qinglan, and after the concubine died, she would take it out and hand it to Your Majesty." The eldest grandson glanced at her husband and said.

"Guanyin, I'm ......" Li Shimin only felt that his throat was blocked, he looked at his wife quietly, and his vision blurred unconsciously.

His wife, from the moment she married him, seemed to have forgotten herself, and all her thoughts were on his side, and she thought far more about him than she did for herself.

Such affection made him embarrassed, moved him, made him feel unrequited, and at the same time, it also made him feel an inexplicable loss in his heart.

He has never felt jealousy in her, and over the years, no matter how many people he has entered in his harem, no matter who he pampers or likes, she will never be unhappy.

There doesn't seem to be the word jealousy in her heart, and throughout the ages, the word virtuous that everyone asks for a woman has undoubtedly been vividly displayed in her.

But she is so virtuous and open-minded and transparent, but Li Shimin can't help but think about it, could it be that she has no love for him at all?

Otherwise, why could she face all this so calmly? If it were him, and she would know which man she had different feelings for, I was afraid that she would go crazy with jealousy.

Back then, Xuanwumen, Li Yuanji's strange performance before his death made him unable to let go for a long time.

Even if he knew that this matter had nothing to do with his wife's half a dime, he still felt very unhappy in his heart, and he did not hesitate in his heart when dealing with Li Yuanji's sons.

"Guanyin, have you ever loved me? Or do you ever regret marrying me?" Thinking of the past, remembering his wife's attitude towards him, through his hazy eyes, Li Shimin suddenly asked such a sentence.

Empress Eldest Sun was stunned when she heard this, did she love him? There should be no doubt about this, and it must be loved.

She was betrothed to him at the age of six, and thirty of her thirty-six years of life were entangled with the man in front of her, and he almost spanned her not very long life.

In addition to him, she has no chance to contact and understand other men, not to mention, from childhood to adulthood, no matter where he is, he is so dazzling and outstanding, when she encounters difficulties, I don't know how much she has been touched and blessed by her, she doesn't love him, who does she love?

Through his face, which had been stained with the traces of time, her thoughts unconsciously flew to the scene when the two first met thirty years ago, and then to the second and third time......

Almost every time she saw him, her impression and good impression of the man in front of her deepened, and when her father and uncle died one after another, and their mother and son were helpless and embarrassed, he stood in front of him every time......

Thinking of those past events, Empress Changsun's eyes unconsciously revealed a touch of infatuation.

Her other limp hand seemed to be infused with some kind of magical power, and she unconsciously raised it, gently stroking the bearded and tear-stained face in front of her.

"Of course love, Erlang, how can I not love you, I can marry you in this life, Guanyin, no regrets." The eldest grandson looked at her husband's face stupidly, and spit out such a sentence softly.

Li Shimin's mood collapsed, he grabbed his wife's hand, and then hugged his wife tightly into his arms, crying bitterly......

Those people outside the palace, listening to the faint cry from inside, like a beast, countless people's eyes unconsciously turned red.

Empress Eldest Sun was tightly held in her arms by Li Shimin, the clothes on her back were wet with his snot and tears, she listened to her husband's depressed and sad cry, there was not much sadness in her heart, and her thoughts continued to drift away.

She undoubtedly loves the man in front of her, not only loves, but also loves deeply and deeply, and loves so much that since the moment she married him, she has no self in her heart.

Over the years of marrying into the Li family, she has helped him take care of the back house without regrets, recruit talents, and help him to be good and beautiful.

As long as it is what he likes, what he is happy about, and what is beneficial to him, she is sparing no effort to do it, and it is impossible to say that she is not a little uncomfortable in her heart for her husband surrounded by all the beauties.

It's just that she knows her husband's temperament too well, and she doesn't like to embarrass herself, for Nami's part, she has been self-persuasive from the beginning, and later, she has gradually really no jealousy.

She won't be jealous and angry for the beauty in her husband's backyard, but in addition to love, there are many other things in life, and from the moment of the Xuanwumen incident, her life has become heavy.

The blood and accusations of too many relatives made her sleepless, and after becoming the queen, too many involuntary bodies and interests in all aspects made this love gradually fade.

She used all her strength, cut off all her desires, and tried her best to play the role of a wife and queen, and she was already exhausted after all these years.

Now in the face of her husband's questioning, she can calmly answer that in this life, she loves him, loves selflessly, and loves everything.

But this kind of love is too heavy, so heavy that she no longer wants to and does not want to continue to bear it.

"Erlang, don't hold it so tightly, concubine, you're about to run out of breath." Because she was hugged too tightly and had some difficulty breathing, Empress Changsun woke up from her immersion and struggled slightly.

"Guanyin, I'm sorry, I ......" Li Shimin was so struggling with his wife, he finally recovered from his sadness, quickly let go of his wife, and looked up at her pale face with uneven breath, and an old face suddenly turned red.

"It doesn't matter, Your Majesty is so out of shape, all because of his deep affection for the concubine, and the concubine is grateful for the five years, but the concubine has little time, and there are still some things to explain, so I have to ......" The eldest grandson shook his head and said apologetically.

"You say, I'll listen." Li Shimin didn't bother to wash his face, he grabbed a hand towel from the table next to him, wiped his face indiscriminately, and said.

"As the old saying goes, a person is about to die, and his words are also good, because the concubine is a woman, it is not easy to interfere in political affairs, and she has never asked about His Majesty's government affairs over the years, but now when she is dying, she has a few last words to give."

"First, it is about a few courtiers around Your Majesty, Your Majesty just followed the Emperor Taishang at the beginning of the incident, Xuan Ling followed His Majesty around, he was cautious and cautious, resourceful and unparalleled, following His Majesty over the years, all the tricks and secrets have been predicted, none of them have been leaked, if it is not for the great reason, I hope Your Majesty will abandon it."

"The other is Xuan Cheng, although Xuan Cheng has not followed His Majesty for a long time, but since he was thrown in front of His Majesty's seat, he has been loyal, outspoken and daring to admonish, since Wude followed His Majesty for nine years, all the words and paths have been of great benefit to my Tang Dynasty and His Majesty.

"As for the pharmacist and other peerless generals, the concubines won't say much, I believe Your Majesty has his own sense of proportion."

"Second, the daughters of the sister-in-law, Your Majesty Wang, who has become adults, will help them find a good family, and the titles that should be given will be supplied to them as soon as possible."

"Third, it's about the concubine's family, there are not many talents in the concubine's family, and they don't have any great credit to Your Majesty or the Tang Dynasty, just because the concubines and Your Majesty have become husband and wife, which makes them worth a hundred times ......."

"But since ancient times, the power of relatives is too strong, it is not a good thing, in order to be able to start and finish well, the concubine implores Your Majesty, after the death of the concubine, do not let any of the relatives of the concubine hold important positions in the court"

"Fourth, when the concubine is alive, she has no merit for the family and the country, and after her death, she will be buried in the soil without the need for a rich coffin, and the necessary utensils will be made of wood and tile products, and she will be thrifty to the end, so that the concubine can be at ease."

"The above are the last wishes of the concubines, and I hope Your Majesty will fulfill them." Empress Eldest Sun said slowly.

"Guanyin, there is no need to mention the matter of the thin funeral, you and I are husband and wife, rich and noble, I am the emperor, you are the queen, we will be together for the rest of our lives, you, do you have anything to say to a few children?"

When Li Shimin heard this, he finally stopped his tears and rolled out again.

"The concubines don't have anything to explain to the children, with Your Majesty here, the concubines believe that the prince or the other children, they won't be bad."

Hearing her husband's words, the eldest grandson unconsciously lowered his eyelids, then raised his eyes to look out of the window, through the window, looking at the beautiful white clouds outside, and only after a long time did he answer such a sentence.

She was very tired and tired, but if she had a choice, she didn't want to die so early, she gave birth to such a child, the eldest son was only eighteen years old, and the youngest daughter was only two years old......

However, she didn't have a choice, just like she never thought that one day, she would become the queen of the world, but she did; For example, she doesn't want to have so many children, but if the emperor wants her to give birth, she can only give birth.

Just like her dying wish, she didn't want to spend money, hoping that the emperor could bury her thinly, for her family to start and finish well, and hoped that the emperor would not be too kind to her family, but looking at the emperor's appearance, it was obvious that she would not be allowed to do so, and she was helpless.

Her life, in the eyes of outsiders, is a supreme and noble life, and a life without regrets.

Only she knows that her whole life is a line pushed forward by fate, a life without self.

The only thing she does better than ordinary people is to adapt herself as much as possible on the road to being pushed by fate, and as for the real autonomy and choice, it is never in her hands.

That's it, since I don't have a choice, so be it, Erlang, in this life, marry you, I have no regrets, but, this kind of love, one life is enough, many lives are too heavy, I can't promise, I can't bear it, if there is an afterlife, I hope you and I will never see you again,

Empress Eldest Sun lowered her gaze and slowly closed her eyes.
