Volume 6: Fanwai Chapter 462 Is There an Afterlife?
Taking a concubine is not as good as marrying a wife, there are no three media and six appointments, and you can't wear red.
In Shangguan Jingyu's memory, his father had many women, so many in the backyard, and I don't know how many there were outside. But the father doesn't have a wife, is this a kind of compensation, a kind of debt.
The Prime Minister's Mansion, the elder is respected, that is to say, except for Shangguan Feng, it is Shangguan Jingyu who can dominate everything in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
She stood in the courtyard of the Three Kings' Mansion, looking up at the roses climbing on the trellises. The blooming and falling of flowers is the law of nature, and no one can change it. She thought she could escape and share her husband's fate with others, but she forgot that he was not only her husband, but also the third prince.
There is a year of Yuying today, and there will be many in the future.
If one day she really becomes a big treasure, with three thousand harems, then what is she?
She watched Nian Yuying enter the Three Princes' Mansion in a wedding dress, and then followed Xiao Dong into the new house. And what about her? Standing alone under the flower stand, not crying or laughing, in a daze.
Reaching for a thorny rose, he accidentally pierced his fingertips with sharp thorns. The pain made her quickly retract her hand, and she lowered her eyebrows to look at the red on her fingertips, and tears instantly welled up.
"Why were you so careless?" A familiar voice, a warm hand, took her fingertips, and then sent her fingertips into his mouth.
She raised her head and looked fixedly at Xiao Dongli, who appeared quietly, and let her tears fall.
She withdrew her hand angrily and walked towards the room.
He followed behind him, not leaving an inch.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to see you short-lived." She paused and turned to look at him.
Xiao Dongli didn't speak, still just staring at her gently.
"What are you doing with me after you have taken all the concubines? You are dressed in a wedding dress, are you marrying me? She roared in a trembling voice, tears streaming down her face, and walked briskly into the room, slamming the door shut.
There was no sound outside, and she watched his shadow linger at the window for a moment before leaving.
The heart hurts like a knife.
But that was the holy decree, what could she do?
Disobedience?
Do you all die together?
She couldn't.
In addition to the Three Kings' Mansion, she also has a Prime Minister's Mansion, so many years of military career has taught her what it means to be strong, how can she be wanton. She can't bear it, what else can she do?
Lying on the table, she felt so tired, if only she could not wake up last time.
Vague, crying and crying and falling asleep.
In her sleep, someone picked her up.
She opened her eyes in astonishment, only to see him looking at her in his arms with red eyes and low eyebrows, and whispered with half explanation, "I took off my wedding dress and came in." ”
"Master, is there an afterlife?" She asked suddenly.
Xiao Dongli gently put her on the bed, "Don't think nonsense. ”
"If there is an afterlife, you don't want to give birth to the emperor's family, and I, don't be a concubine of the prime minister's house. Let's be ordinary people, do you say it's okay? She asked with a smile in her eyes.
The candlelight was dim, her eyes were misty, but in a calm tone, she said words that frightened him.
"There will be no afterlife." He stifled her thoughts, "This life is enough." ”
"But after you, there will be more and more women." She wanted to laugh, but laughing was worse than crying, "And I—will grow old until one day, you'll never remember me again." If there is an afterlife—"
"I said it!" He suddenly said in a cold voice, "There will be no afterlife. If everyone has an afterlife, isn't the world chaotic? Ah Jing, I only need you in my life. ”
Shangguan Jingyu didn't speak, just turned his back to him.
Xiao Dongli didn't explain, Gu Zi got on the bed and hugged her from behind. It's clear that everyone has their own hearts, and it's clear that no one can sleep, but they all pretend to sleep peacefully.
In fact, after Nian Yuying married into the Three Princes' Mansion, Xiao Dongli never went to her room at all, and from the beginning to the end, she was alone in the boudoir.
No matter how soft and hard it was, no matter what tricks he played, Xiao Dongli never stepped into her room for another half step, and always accompanied Shangguan Jingyu.
Marrying into the house, although it is your own woman, it is not necessarily the woman in your heart.
Eat and drink well, and that's it!
The situation in the eastern capital can be described as changing day and night, and no one knows what it will look like in the future. Nian Shizhong beat his sister and married into the Three Kings' Mansion, and he was already in Xiao Dongli's camp.
With the support of Nian Shizhong and Shangguan Feng, Xiao Dong is not what it used to be.
Even Xiao Dongming and Concubine Yu are also helpless. Xiao Dongming has the name of a sage, but after all, there is no life of a sage, and no matter how much the emperor loves him, he will be old.
If you can't force it, then rely on boiling to see who is boiling to death.
Xu is second prince couldn't hold it back, and the final result was that the second prince forced the palace to be imprisoned by the emperor, and Concubine Yu was beaten into the cold palace. Xiao Dongming is the emperor's favorite son in the end, and the emperor is reluctant to kill him, but the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, so the emperor put Xiao Dongming under house arrest in the palace and will never be released.
And a forced palace allowed Nian Shizhong to smoothly involve the Fu family, and the Fu family was exiled by the whole family. The military power in Fu Sheng's hands was completely classified into the hands of Nian Shizhong.
Therefore, in a battle, it was not Xiao Dongli who won, but Nian Shizhong.
Nian Shizhong monopolized the power, and all the military generals were included in his team, and the civil officials were all in the hands of Shangguan Feng, and they were divided for a while.
Xiao Sheng is seriously ill, and over the years, Shangguan Feng has paid tribute to a lot of pills, saying that it is to prolong life, but in fact, only Shangguan Feng himself knows what it is.
"Your Majesty." Shangguan Feng took the elixir in the exquisite brocade box and slowly handed it over.
Xiao Sheng took the pill and looked pale, "When I look at you, I'm in a good mood." It's just that if I haven't seen you for a hundred years, how can I get it? He put the pill in his mouth, took the tea handed by Shangguan Feng, and sent the pill into his abdomen.
Shangguan Feng smiled, "Long live the emperor, how can there be a hundred years." ”
Hearing this, Xiao Sheng smiled and held his hand, letting him sit on the edge of his bed, so that he could be closer to himself, "I have loved two people in my life, and now I have you by my side, which is also excellent." ”
"The emperor is too worried, and Weichen will always accompany the emperor. When the emperor's illness is cured, Weichen will accompany the emperor to play chess. Shangguan Feng let out a shallow breath.
Xiao Sheng looked at him and suddenly sighed lightly, "I'm old, but why are you the same as the first time I saw you?" Nothing seems to have changed, but I-"
Shangguan Feng's face froze, "The emperor has a good reputation, in the eyes of Weichen, how has the emperor changed." ”
"Hasn't it changed?" Xiao Sheng looked at him gently, as if he wanted to rub him into his body, "Come here, I want to hug you." ”
Hearing this, Shangguan Feng took a deep breath and slowly moved his body.
Xiao Sheng struggled to prop himself up and gently hugged Shangguan Feng, "If it weren't for you to accompany me, I don't know how I would have come over all these years." Fortunately, I also have you by my side, and I feel no regrets. The light under his eyes gradually changed color, "If I let you go down in the future, how can you let me go?" ”
"I can turn a blind eye, and whatever you do, I don't see or hear. There were so many folds on my desk that I didn't even want to look at them. But whoever impeaches you, I will disgrace them and dismiss them. But I don't regret it, I just hope that in the future—you won't regret it either. ”
