433 Don't be afraid
When Min'er left the bed, Xiang Ye realized that he touched Min'er's hand with his eyes closed, and asked in a daze, "Where are you going?" ”
"I want to see Run'er."
"Well...... "The emperor didn't know whether he didn't wake up or groaned, and he let go of his hand for a while, "tell him, don't be afraid." ”
The emperor is really still the same person he was back then, Min'er was relieved, sat back next to Xiang Ye and covered his stomach with a thin blanket: "Sleep well, I'll be back soon." ”
The night was dark, a lantern led the way, Min'er slowly arrived in front of her son's door, Xiang Run had just woken up from a nightmare in the house, sat on the bed in a daze, suddenly heard a movement outside the door, and hurriedly turned over and lay down.
"Niangniang, Your Highness has been asleep for a while, and I slept early tonight." It was the voice of the grandmother on duty at the door, and there was gradually a light in the dormitory, and then I heard my mother say, "You stand down, I will take a look and go out." ”
Xiang Run turned his back to his mother, closed his eyes tightly, felt someone approaching him, smelled the fragrance of his mother's body, and then the soft silk handkerchief suddenly touched his forehead, and his mother was gently wiping away the sweat for him. The gentle voice said, "It's not hot anymore, and I'm still sweating like this, it's a boy after all." ”
He didn't dare to move, he just held back, but when he felt his mother leaving, he felt that she was walking out, and his heart felt empty, why didn't the queen mother stay for a while, he hadn't thought about whether he wanted to say something to her......
"The Queen Mother." Xiang Run immediately sat up.
Min'er knew that her son was awake, and the sweat on his head must be because of a nightmare, but she thought about it, if her son didn't say anything to her, then she wouldn't ask, even if it was a day or two late.
"Woke you up?" Min'er smiled and went to light more candles, and the room gradually brightened up so that mother and son could see each other.
Xiang Run's gaze stayed on his mother, as she went to light the candle, as she came to the front, when his mother sat down, he seemed to be determined.
Min'er reached out and touched his forehead, only to sweat and cool his hands slightly.
"Why doesn't the queen mother sleep late at night?"
"I woke up suddenly and wanted to see my son, your brother was crying just now, did you hear me?"
Xiang Run nodded and looked out of the house, wanting to listen again, but Huan'er had been coaxed to be quiet, and she couldn't hear any movement anymore.
"Queen Mother......" The little child looked stunned, because his eyes were still clear, he could see that the tangled emotions seemed to be churning, he slowly retracted his gaze, and a layer of mist floated under his eyes, "Queen Mother, did I do something wrong, Queen Mother, I saw the imperial sister-in-law jumping into the pool of Taiye with Xia Chunyu, but I shouldn't have secretly instigated the third brother, I should say it openly and honestly, and tell my father to tell you in a dignified manner." ”
Min'er didn't speak, gently brushed away the wisps of hair on her son's neck after being sweaty, and touched her hand on her shoulder, it turned out that she was still so thin, and he was still a child.
"Mother, do you know it's me?" Xiang Run sat forward, almost clinging to his mother's body, he also imagined his sister being coquettish in his mother's arms, but he was a boy and the future monarch of Daqi.
Min'er took the initiative to pick him up, and after the little guy struggled a little, he was honest.
"When I saw something strange in your eyes, I guessed something, and after hesitating in contradictions, I decided to let go of my hand and see how bold and courageous you are." Min'er said slowly, "You didn't do anything wrong, it's just too early, too early to do something that shouldn't be done at your age, that's why you will be sad afterwards, if it is ten years late, your third brother will stab the dagger into your second brother's body, and you won't have nightmares because of this." ”
The child said sincerely: "I don't care about brotherhood, I will break my father's heart." ”
Min'er said: "Your father's heart supports the Great Qi River, how can it be so easy to be sad." She paused and asked, "Will you do this to Huan'er in the future?" ”
Xiang Run hurriedly sat up straight: "No, Huan'er is different, Huan'er is his younger brother Huan'er, he ......" There was still fear in the child's eyes, "Queen Mother, Huan'er won't hit me with a beam, he won't." ”
Min'er said: "What happened that time was not done by your brothers, but it can't be done, and the queen mother doesn't guarantee that it won't happen again in the future, so it's not wrong to say that your resistance is just too early." As for Huan'er, the queen mother will teach him well, and she will also protect you at the same time, we make an agreement, before you have a weak crown, if there is such a thing, it will be handed over to the queen mother to deal with, you can think and watch but must not do it. All right? ”
Xiang Run nodded: "Yes"
Min'er said: "Forget about the fall of the beam, it was a failed conspiracy of others, since it was the stupidity and incompetence of others, why should you remember it in your heart?" If they had succeeded, you would have been dead long ago, and you would not have been troubled at all. Brotherhood is not necessarily connected by blood, there will be no it, even for Huan'er, as long as you are not a murderous tyrant in the future, standing on top of the blood for the sake of the world, even if no one can understand you, the world is peaceful and strong, and it will give you the best return. The king is very lonely, and my father asked me to bring you a word. ”
Xiang Run really still cared about his father's feelings, and when he learned that his father also knew, he felt inexplicably down-to-earth: "What did my father say?" Queen mother...... Does my father blame me? ”
Min'er smiled: "He told you not to be afraid." ”
"Don't be afraid?" Xiang Run read it a few times, as if he understood it or not, at least his father didn't hate him. The child said sincerely, "The father has a queen mother by his side, and the father is not lonely." ”
Min'er smiled, "When you can understand the meaning of loneliness, you won't have nightmares." She gently held the child in her arms again, "Sleep, the queen mother is by your side, you won't have nightmares, be a child in peace, don't let the queen mother regret that you grew up too fast, even if it's a year or two late." ”
"Mother...... "The child's voice was weak, "have you ever done something you regret?" ”
Min'er smiled: "No, the queen mother has lived as she wants in her life without a choice." Okay, let's sleep......"
Mother and son depend on each other, Min'er coaxes her son like when she was a child, and there will be fewer and fewer years like this, but I hope that there will be a good girl in the future who can also make him feel at ease. Min'er looked at her child lovingly, thinking of the last thing he asked herself before she fell asleep, did she have any regrets in her life?
It's not that there isn't, it's that you can't have. In the emperor's family, she either accepted her fate or stood at the top, she told Qiu Jingrou the truth that day, but she didn't expect it to make her completely abandon this life. She believed that it was Qiu Jingrou who was looking for death and hit Xiang Hao's dagger, she believed.
A light entered the room, it was the palace maid in her palace, who came to Min'er and whispered in her ear, saying that the emperor asked Niangniang to go back quickly. Min'er handed over the child to the grandmother on duty at night to take care of, and immediately rushed back, thinking that the emperor was unwell, and didn't want a secret report to come in the middle of the night, Xiang Ye said in a deep voice: "Qiu Jingrou is mourning, don't let Yuan Yuan and them go, I know that they won't sit still, I killed so many people, they will inevitably fight back." But it's too difficult to hurt me, but the children are easy to approach, and they are all my weaknesses. ”
Only then did Min'er know that the secret agent had sent news that the forces opposing him in the DPRK and China were gathering together, and they had to make a big move, and the emperor bypassed the law and killed so many corrupt officials in a row, so that the people involved could not be at peace all day long, and after a long time, everyone understood what was the way behind the scenes, and since the emperor did not give them a way to live, they could only fight to the death.
"They'll come, and I'll make room for them in the prison."
"It's already decided this morning, Yuan Yuan will replace the Queen Mother and I to see off Qiu Jingrou, and suddenly say no, will it arouse suspicion?"
Xiang Ye frowned: "I was afraid that you would worry, and I was afraid that you would misunderstand me and use my daughter as bait." ”
Min'er said: "It's better for the emperor to ask her personally." ”
Xiang Ye squinted at his wife, he felt that he could guess Min'er's heart, and asked softly: "Qiu Jingxuan and Shen Yun, do you want Yuan Yuan to make a choice?" But hasn't she already let go of Qiu Jingxuan? ”
Min'er said: "So the emperor thinks of me like this? ”
Xiang Ye smiled lazily: "Why bother to play dumb riddles with me, is it only allowed to know my intentions?" ”
Min'er said with a straight face: "Since you understand my intentions, you must send a master to follow your daughter closely." ”
Xiang Yuan, who didn't know anything about this, on the day of the princess's funeral, on behalf of the queen mother and her mother, brought her sister to see her off in plain clothes.
In any case, Qiu Jingrou is a legitimate princess, and the aftermath is more rigorous and solemn than the extravagance that the three princes deliberately made for Xia Chunyu not long ago.
Qiu Jingxuan begged Yuan Yuan to persuade the queen to let him take his sister to bury him back to his parents, even if it was not his hometown, it was better to be by his parents' side than to wait alone in the imperial tomb for the man who didn't love him. But this matter is obviously not easy to do, the royal family must lose its dignity, and the emperor will discuss with Xiang Feng after agreeing, and Xiang Feng actually agreed. So today's funeral only buried the clothes, and the rest of the matter Qiu Jingxuan himself will do it.
Yuan Yuan and his sister completed the tedious etiquette under the guidance of the ceremonial officials, and the cries of the palace maids and eunuchs were false and merciless, and they made people hear, Xiang Yuan felt that no one present was really sad, including her brother. Maybe it's because I've seen the third brother heartbroken for Xia Chunyu, and the second brother's performance is bland, but this is not Yuan Yuan's responsibility, I just hope that today's funeral will be smooth and smooth.
After leaving the city, the team went straight to Qinzhou, Qin'er was going back to the palace here, and repeatedly told her sister to be careful on the road, but seeing that it was Shen Yun who led the troops to guard, she felt very relieved, and when the team was far away, she had to board the car and return to the palace.
The officers and soldiers lined up under the city gate, blocking the people from passing in the distance, and when Qin'er boarded the car, she saw a tall man in the crowd, with a long body and a graceful temperament, and the man was also looking at him. Looking at each other, Xiang Qin quickly retracted his gaze, and after sitting back in the carriage, he was a little uneasy, and gently lifted the curtain, but the man gradually withdrew from the crowd and went to a distant place.
Xiang Qin smiled and ordered: "Go back to the palace." ”
The team going to Qinzhou finally stopped crying loudly, Xiang Feng and several ministers were in front, and occasionally sent people to care about his sister in the back, and at this moment the team stopped to rest, and Yuan Yuan did not come to disturb. She ordered the palace maid to bring a kettle and snacks to find Qiu Jingxuan near the hearse, thinking that no one in the prince's mansion should care if he ate or not.
Qiu Jingxuan saw her coming, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted, but when she got close to Yuan Yuan, she felt that the aura around her was wrong, and there seemed to be many people hiding around her, were they staring at the princess, or were they staring at themselves?
