The news of Shen Li's return spread all over the country in an instant, and as soon as the news came out, everyone was shocked.
But after being shocked, they behaved differently.
"The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager is back-" The palace maid hurriedly and excitedly ran to the Empress Dowager Shao, the tea in the Empress Dowager Shao's hand shook violently, and the crystal tea soup was sprinkled on the dress without knowing it.
"Shen Li, Li'er is back?" The Queen Mother's tone was full of disbelief.
The palace maid smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's the Emperor Taishang who has returned." β
Empress Dowager Shao smiled at the corners of her mouth, but her eyes were red, but after a moment of joy, she restrained her smile, thinking about the situation where the two emperors had only one emperor.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Emperor is back." Lian Ying strode across the threshold and bowed in front of Shen Yi.
Shen Yicha's face tensed when he heard the news, and after a long silence that was almost suffocating, he smiled, "Life is really big enough." β
"This will, the emperor's royal car should enter the city."
"Prepare the horses." Shen Yi's face was like frost, and he seemed to be in an extremely complicated mood.
"Yes." Lian Ying bowed and retreated.
Shen Yi raised his somewhat heavy arm, "Slow, put my full luan drive out, I want to see him in a dignified manner." β
"Yes."
Since the main palace was seized, the empress was forced to live in a secluded bamboo garden, in fact, a few days after Shen Li's personal expedition, she found out that she was pregnant, afraid that Shao Shifang would poison her, so she never dared to speak out about it, but most of the year has passed, and I am afraid that there will be a few months to give birth, so I can't hide it for a long time.
She knew the news of the emperor's return to Beijing slower than others, and the palace maid couldn't hide her joy on her face, "Niangniang, Niangniang, the emperor is back." β
The queen struggled to get up with her stomach, her pale face was full of disbelief, and she grabbed the palace maid's arm and asked, "Really?" Are you sure? β
"Uh-huh, it's true, it's true."
As soon as the words fell, the queen ran out with a big belly, "I'm going to see the emperor, go to see the emperor." β
"Where are you going?" Shao Shifang appeared with a group of palace maids Cai'e, her bright red lips raised upward, and she said casually: "There is only one emperor and only one queen in this world." β
Empress Tai's pale and paper-like cheeks lost the last bit of color, and she muttered, "I didn't compete with you for the throne, I just wanted to welcome the Emperor Taishang back to the palace." β
"Do you know why this palace didn't do anything to you when she knew you were pregnant?" Shao Shifang smiled and lowered his voice, "For today, it is finally put to use." β
"You...... What do you mean? The Empress looked up at Shao Shifang in fear, "Are you trying to use me and the child in my belly to blackmail the Emperor?" β
Shao Shifang covered his lips and smiled coquettishly, raising his chin slightly, "Yes, if you only threaten the emperor with your life, I am afraid he will not be willing to give way, but if you tell him that you have his flesh and blood in your belly, if you don't give way, you will ......."
Ten fingers unconsciously buckled into her palm, and the queen jerked her head up to look directly at her.
Shao Shifang smiled and said to her: "Empress Dowager Liu is quite lonely alone in the deep palace, and I want to bother you to talk more." β
"I'm not going!" She struggled as hard as she could, but was held hostage by the palace people who were dressed on the left and right and dragged her to the Empress Dowager Liu.
Shao Shifang looked at her back and smiled, "This is also a good move in this palace." β
The back of being dragged in the air turned his head sideways in the sunlight and glanced at Shao Shifang for the last time.
.......
When Shen Li's figure appeared in everyone's sight, the hundred officials were already waiting here, and when they saw him coming back, they knelt down and bowed, "The ministers welcome the emperor back to Beijing." β
"Your Majesty, the old minister finally saw you." The minister's hoarse voice obviously suppressed the excitement, "Your Majesty ......"
Shen Li turned over and dismounted, and patted the head minister on the shoulder, "I'm fine, everything is fine, everything is fine." β
"Flat, flat."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty." An eldest lady squeezed to Shen Li's side on crutches, "My little Li Zi went out with you, did he come back?" β
Shen Li was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.
The battlefield is brutal, and it is very likely that it is no longer there.
"Mother, mother-" A young man ran out of the line behind Shen Li and hugged the eldest lady, "I'm back, I'm back." β
"Is it really my little plum?" The eldest lady stretched out her withered old hand and touched his cheek, and tears flowed down her face.
"The emperor has arrivedβ" A voice passed through the crowd and clearly fell into everyone's ears.
Shen Li's face froze, looking at the royal car parked not far from him, the golden dragon blanket spread from the side of the imperial sedan chair to his feet, Shen Yi, who was dressed in a five-clawed golden dragon, was full of energy, and the luxurious aura that could not be concealed between his eyebrows, stepped on the dragon blanket and walked towards him, and his slender and upright figure inexplicably had a sense of oppression.
Shen Li's whole body froze there.
Unhurried pace, but he didn't take a step, Shen Li felt a little heavier in his heart.
He could even hear him stepping on the dragon blanket.
"Welcome the imperial brother back to Beijing." Shen Yi finally walked up to him and spoke with a chuckle.
The low and magnetic voice is the same as in memory, but it has a little more indifference.
Shen Li set his gaze on him, his gaze was deep and deep, and there was hardly any emotion.
"When you see me, why don't you welcome the emperor to Beijing?" He whispered the words.
At this time, a young man beside Shen Yi stepped forward and said, "The Emperor Taishang has abdicated, and when he sees the emperor, he should make a big salute." β
The identity of this young man is on the way from Suzhou to Changping City, Lin Shuai has already said that he is the nephew of Shao Guogong, this person is oily and smooth, and he is extremely good at figuring out Shangfeng's thoughts, pleasing the emperor, and is deeply favored by Shen Yi, and he is promoted to a high position.
"I drove the royal expedition in person, the king of Qi temporarily took the throne, and now that I am back, do I still want the dove to occupy the magpie's nest?" The emperor seemed to smile lightly, "When I left, I ordered the king of Qi to supervise the country, but I didn't steal the country." β
Shen Yi smiled casually, "The imperial brother was captured, he suffered a lot in the Jin Kingdom, the road is far away, it must be hard, go back to the palace to rest, and discuss this matter later." β
As he spoke, he made a gesture of pity.
Shen Li didn't say anything more, and stepped back on the horse.
The sedan curtain fell gently.
Shen Yi relied on himself to see inside and outside, and clenched his fists fiercely.
Outside the sedan chair, the man was riding on horseback, his tall figure was cold and sharp, but his gaze fell on him as if it were substance.
Shen Yi hurriedly looked away, and soon, the imperial sedan chair was lifted.
They were far behind.
When Chu Ruojun returned from the people, she bit her lip tightly, so that she could barely restrain the surging tears.
The figure...... What had once been so familiar to her seemed so far away now.
The end of the world is just a stone's throw away.
Bai Zhi on the side pulled her, "Miss, why didn't you call him just now?" β
"He's the emperor now." Chu Ruojun muttered, "Moreover, if he blames me for saying goodbye and being angry with me, wouldn't it be embarrassing for me to rush in front of him." β
After half a year, the gentle and soft side of this man seems to have been sealed by him.
She didn't dare to think about it, what was his mood when she knew that she would say goodbye? How has he spent the past six months?
Sometimes she understands Shen Yi and Shao Shifang, indicating that he has put her down, but she hopes that he will still think about herself until death.
She couldn't help but hate such a contradictory and selfish selfish self.
Back at the General's Mansion, Grandma suddenly smiled, "Ruojun, people who really like you can't bear to blame you, just like your father, it seems to be nothing on the surface, but after you left, he often sighed, scolding himself for being so useless, how he fell into the hands of the enemy, and dragged you down almost ......"
Chu Ruojun opened her mouth, but she was speechless.
"Your father said he saw you when he was in the prisoner of war camp." Grandma's voice was tinged with distress, "He knows that you disguised yourself as a man and went to the battlefield, and it was very uncomfortable to fall into the hands of the enemy, and he wanted to see your father and was afraid that he would blame him." β
"Grandma, don't talk about this, I'll tell you something." Chu Ruojun looked up at her.
The old lady had a hunch that what she said next would be important.
"I met the murderer of my brother back then." Chu Ruojun's voice was light and calm, but it was unusually determined, "I guess it has something to do with the Shao family." β
The old lady's whole person was like a lightning strike!
"Shao family?" She muttered.
A trace of panic flashed in the old lady's eyes, and then she asked suspiciously: "Why did they do this, our Chu family has never offended them before." β
Chu Ruojun opened her mouth, "These, I also want to know." β
The old lady was a little depressed, and the dignified Yu Xianghe seemed to have completely disappeared.
After a while, she asked in a ghostly manner, "Ruojun, you tell grandma about the process." β
Chu Ruojun hummed in a low voice, how she would escape, how Lin Changtian saved her, how Hongchou threatened her, and how Sang Muge helped him escape on the day she got married.
The old lady's tears slipped unconsciously, and she stroked Chu Ruojun's long hair distressedly, suppressing the urge to cry.
Chu Ruojun couldn't help crying, "Grandma, it's okay, it's okay." β
The warm hand wiped away her tears, "Good boy, it's not easy for you, it's not easy." β
Chu Ruojun's tears welled up again.
"This Shao family, why is it so vicious, why can they be so happy and can live without guilt like this?" Grandma's hands trembled, "If one day you are old in the West District, you must ask the gods for your life and curse the Shao family to die a good death!" β
Chu Ruojun looked at her grandmother's moved expression, and her anger ignited.
Grandma has never blushed with anyone in her life, let alone scolded anyone, and at this moment she fused those resentful, desperate, and untold anger together, and cursed viciously.
