Chapter 21: The Scattered
The world after that day is still the world of Ronghuan, and it is still a scene of singing and dancing.
It's just that there is a "gentle" Xun prince in this world, as well as those ministers below the fourth grade.
The surviving ministers were silent, but the rumors never stopped.
It is rumored that Emperor Ronghuan is very fond of that mermaid Qi Yue, to what extent, he can imprison Prince Xun in order to make her laugh, and he can also slaughter half of the ministers in the court in order to make her happy.
The rumors in the market can't be controlled by the royal family, and gradually, Qi Yue has become what they call a disaster for the country and a monster for the country.
But she didn't do anything, did she, she was just a pawn in someone's hand.
Qi Yue, who was shaking her mind while playing chess, was interrupted by a pair of big hands in front of her, and the owner of the hand looked at her with a smile: "What's the matter, why are you thinking so distracted?" ”
"Nothing." Qi Yue said lightly.
Rong Huan watched Qi Yue's slender fingers fall, and then said, "You won," and then withdrew the chess pieces in his hand, "I have sat on this throne for so many years, and you are the first person who dares to play chess to win against me." ”
"Hmph," Qi Yue let out a sneer from her nose, "The emperor should comfort and comfort me with this chess piece, lose this game." ”
"You're not just a chess piece," Rong Huan's knuckled hand gradually touched Qi Yue's white hand, "You will be the queen of my Great Qi." ”
Rong Huan just made a slight effort and pulled Qi Yue into his arms.
And Qi Yue didn't struggle, but just let Rong Huan take her into his arms, and gently leaned his head against Rong Huan's ear, exhaling and saying, "The queen of Daqi? Even if I'm a disaster for the country? ”
Rong Huan glanced back at her: "Even if you are a red face in the country." ”
"Even if I'm a monster of the dead country?" Qi Yue's eyebrows and eyes were full of puzzlement.
"Even if you're a monster of the dead country."
Rong Huan looked at her smile, but it never changed.
……
After a long time, Qi Yue understood what was mixed in this man's smile, the burden of responsibility that could not be unloaded, and the helplessness of disgust with fighting openly and secretly.
It's just that at this time, Rong Huan has run out of oil and dried up, and her hair is full of luxury, and Qi Yue is still as young and bright as ever, and she has not left a trace on her for decades.
This twilight son who was lying on the dragon couch and couldn't get up, this twilight son who had protected her for so many years in the mouths of courtiers and people in the world, was finally coming to the end of his life.
At this time, Qi Yue was sitting on the edge of the dragon couch, her hand as white as jade holding Rong Huan's hand, and under the dragon couch, the harem concubine, the prince and grandson, who knelt down.
Among them, there are also her and Ronghuan's children.
The child with the same turquoise eyes as her.
"Ah Yue......" Rong Huan can no longer quarrel with Qi Yue like he did when he was young, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he could only barely say a few words, "I'm leaving, you have to teach Ah Min well......"
Qi Yue had tears in her eyes, in order to prevent them from falling, she could only nod her head cautiously, and she was afraid that as soon as she opened her mouth, she would cry with a choking, so she could only vaguely respond with a "hmm".
"Let him guard it well, this great Qi ......" paused, Rong Huan looked up with difficulty and looked at Qi Yue: "I am willing, I was born in an ordinary people's family...... Be a fisherman...... Such...... Such...... I can meet you too...... Also available ......"
Before she finished speaking, Qi Yue felt that the light in Rong Huan's eyes had completely disappeared in an instant, and it was replaced by a deathly gloom.
"The emperor is here!"
This sentence from decades ago finally spread throughout the imperial city on this day decades later...... It spread throughout the entire Great Qi again.
