Yan Tang has been eating and sleeping and working these days, except for less words and more silence, there is nothing else.

This made Qi Yiyi feel that she still underestimated him, maybe she still regarded him in her heart as the one who was just a partner with her in her previous life, and forgot that in addition to that side, he actually had many faces, and the people and things he experienced were not what she could see and understand at that time.

She felt that he would be fragile or emotionally broken, and those were based on what "Su Shenci" thought of him.

So she just accompanies her, when he is busy, she does some needlework next to him, prepares some paper and ink or something, and when he eats and sleeps, she also herself, he wants to go out, she always packs up in front of him as quickly as possible, he doesn't mention it, she doesn't mention it.

Such a dull daily life has derived another warm and practical feeling.

From the time they got married to the present, they haven't really spent even a day of normal and ordinary married life.

Every day is in the atmosphere of war, which is rough and sketchy.

And now, in such a step-by-step manner, there is nothing particularly important waiting for the day, even if it is just a very ordinary company, a very ordinary walk and shopping, but it seems real.

Last morning, I went to the town to buy some needlework, sat in the small restaurant by the window and waited for the food to be served, looking at the villagers with trouser legs and shoes in the restaurant, and then looking at Yan Tang who was sitting indifferently opposite with a cup and drinking coarse tea, she recalled the first time she invited him to eat noodles at the small noodle restaurant at the entrance of the fang.

She didn't know if he knew his background in his previous life, and if so, how he spent this subversive time.

And what role Xiao Heng played in his fate in his previous life, she didn't know.

She was just glad that she had the opportunity to be by his side like this in this life, even if she couldn't help him with anything, but at least she was the only one who wouldn't change anything for him as his life changed in life.

She added tea to his teacup, and asked Xiao Er to add a bowl of mountain ginseng and wolfberry meat and bone soup to him.

Yan Tang looked out the window absentmindedly, not paying attention to all her actions.

His mood was very messy and complicated at the beginning, and today, four or five days later, although he has calmed down a lot, there are some hurdles that he can't overcome all at once.

"You said that the emperor has a secret decree for you, what is it?" He finally started asking.

Qi Yiyu put the cup: "He took a pattern carved into a wolf's head totem for me, and asked me to go to Wura to find it, I didn't say whether it was a person or a thing, in short, it was headless and brainless." ”

"'Wolf Head'?" He took his gaze back.

"Yes. It looked like it should be a jade bracelet or something, and later Anda said that the wolf's head was used by the priest of the Wura royal court to suppress evil spirits. Later, I asked him if he was looking for Yung Ji, and he said no, but I had a gut feeling that he was looking for someone. ”

Yan Tang suddenly remembered the jade ring that he watched in his hand before the emperor asked him to take command in the Qianqing Palace.

It must be it. He also asked her when he arrested her.

If he was inquiring about people, and not Rong Ji, who else would it be?

His birth mother?

So even if his biological mother is not Rong Ji, she must have something to do with the emperor, otherwise why would he look for her (him)?

So, is he really the emperor's son? Is Xiao Heng a half-brother?

"Still thinking about this?" The dishes came up, and Qi Yiyi gave him the dishes.

He was noncommittal, lowered his hand and took the bowl, and said, "Tell me about Rong Ji." ”

Whether this legendary woman was his birth mother or not, he began to want to know more about her.

It was rare that he was willing to take the initiative to speak, and Qi Yiyi put down his chopsticks: "Actually, Rong Ji is not as unbearable as you think."

"According to the information I have now, she was taken captive by Su He many years ago in the northwest or outside the Guan, first she entered the royal court alone, and then Su He was moved by compassion and took her Hu Cong to the royal court after finding it.

"After spending a few years in the royal court that even Anda didn't know the specifics, she was targeted by Hu Zhang, and then there was the later one.

"But there are two things that are strange now, one is that even though Rong Ji may have met the emperor, none of her servants have survived.

"The second is that Anda has explained that He Chu was also looking for someone in the early years, but the person he is looking for may not be Rong Ji."

She doesn't want to bother with other problems, but even if Rong Ji is beautiful and intolerable, her subordinates shouldn't all die with her. Moreover, who He Chu was looking for, the same person the emperor was looking for, made her have no clue.

She looked at him and said softly: "So even if Rong Ji has a one-in-10,000 chance of having some entanglement with the emperor, she shouldn't be the kind of woman who lives helplessly and casually depends on a man as you imagined." Xiao Heng's words, don't take them to heart. ”

Yan Tang pursed her lips and squinted out the window.

Before, he really couldn't afford to look down on such a troublesome woman, because he subconsciously felt that most of these witches were obscene.

So when Xiao Heng said that he was born to Rong Ji, he was indeed ashamed.

He felt that a person should always be clean and self-loving, and since she was Su He's favorite concubine, how could she be entangled with the emperor of a neighboring country immediately after being separated? And give birth to a child?

Can't she live without a man?

He admits that there are also some prejudices at work in this because he was born as a prince.

He understands the truth that the son does not dislike the mother as ugly.

But it's one thing to understand, it's another thing to really accept.

From childhood to adulthood, the education he received was strict, and the people and things he came into contact with, even if some of them were humane, were at least within moral constraints.

He has always been proud of having a brave and upright father like Yan Yining and a gentle and gentle mother like Concubine Ye, and he admires their character and believes in their standards, which has nothing to do with their noble origins.

Therefore, he couldn't accept that he had a biological mother who was so casually committed to a man-

He felt that even if she had committed herself to Suhe as a concubine, as long as she didn't come randomly, he wouldn't look down on her.

But the news he got was-

Therefore, Xiao Heng said that she was "as good as she could be", what reason did he have to refute it?

"Yantang, in this world, it is very difficult for a woman who has no ability to protect herself to live. It's not something you and I can decide based on our own experiences and backgrounds. ”

Qi Yiyi looked at his gloomy eyes and said, "With the identities of you and me, I may believe that starvation is a small matter and a big loss." But for a significant number of people, it is better to die than to live.

"So if Rong Ji really did anything in the process of exile in order to survive that did not meet the standards of you and me, as long as she didn't hurt innocent people, I actually think she was right. What's more, there are some things that she can't control. ”
