Chapter 190: Kindness
Liu Anran barely heard what Xiaodouzi said. Her eyes widened: "What...... What ......"
Xiaodouzi turned around completely, said loudly, word by word: "Your Majesty wants to poison you, but Niangniang refuses, this is disobeying the holy decree." ”
"Heh......" Liu Anran was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly laughed, "Really? ”
Xiaodouzi pinched the first knuckle of his little fingertip, showed it to Liu Anran, and said: "Such a big poison, Niangniang put it in her sleeve, it is the same color as the poison you poisoned the third prince back then." ”
"Hah!" Liu Anran laughed so hard that his shoulders shook violently, he laughed twice and was tired, leaning on the soft pillow and weeping.
The heavy curtain was stirred up by the boiling wine, and she brought a bowl full of black bitter medicine: "Niangniang, drink the medicine." ”
Liu Anran glanced at the decoction.
Boiling wine said with relief: "Your Majesty is merciful, and you have never cut off your medicinal herbs. Now that the court has also added charcoal fires and stoves, I am afraid that everything will get better. ”
"Kindness." Liu Anran wiped away her tears and muttered, "Sure enough, most mortals are like this." cough cough ...... "When she coughed, she coughed up blood again. The blood was dripping all over Liu Anran's clothes, and he looked extremely tired.
The brewing wine was about to come up and serve, but Liu Anran took the decoction in her hand and drank it all in one gulp.
"Drink slowly." Boiled wine worried.
Liu Anran handed the empty bowl back and wiped the stains on the corners of his mouth: "It's that I feel much more relaxed after drinking it these days, or maybe it's because this medicine has a symptomatic effect." As she spoke, the corners of her eyes and eyebrows really showed a comfortable look, as if she felt a lot better.
"Is that really the case?" Boiling wine stretched his brows, a little happy, "In the end, it is the medicine of Ji'anfang." Don't worry, you'll get better. ”
Liu Anran didn't answer this, and just looked at the patterns on the quilt. She seemed to be making a very difficult decision, thinking about it repeatedly, and Shaoqing said: "Isn't this prescription a warm supplement, boil two more bowls, and drink them together." ”
Boiling wine hesitated: "In the past, I only drank it twice a day. ”
"Today's spirit is good, or maybe it's because of this medicine." Liu Anran was a little stiff, "A few more bowls, you see...... I don't cough when I drink it. ”
"Yes......" Cooking wine was afraid that she would be angry, but she couldn't resist Liu Anran, so she went as she said.
Cooking wine thought in his heart, warm and tonic medicine, the more the merrier. simply obeyed Liu Anran's wishes, and took five or six bowls of bitter medicine this day, and at night, he really didn't cough.
In the morning, the fog and frost rose, and Liu Anran died.
When Mu Beiyi heard that Liu Anran had died, he was very fond of it, and he was vegetarian for three days. It was only three days, and then she was rewarded with many treasures and praised her for "ironing her heart and having the ability to do political things".
Pillow Chun was annoyed and cried by this affectionate man, and threw the jewelry into the pond in the palace.
Three days later, the Liu family was beheaded, and the nine clans were connected.
In the same month, Jiaoguiyi gave birth to six princes at full term. The six princes are healthy and lovely, and Mubei Yi is happy to reward the six palaces. The joy of celebrating the full moon of the new emperor's heir added unhappiness to the lord of Fufeng, and she was so angry that she gave birth to the fourth princess prematurely.
The fourth princess was born with white skin and black hair, and you can imagine how she will be beautiful when she becomes an adult.
The succession of happy events makes people forget the struggles, wars, and plagues that have been going on for a whole year. It seems that only rebirth and forgetfulness can soothe people's hearts.
Mu Beiyi was set on the day of the snow, and when the snow melted, he would be the queen of the spring.
As a queen, for the pillow spring at this time, there is no taste as drinking cold white open. There is no taste in snow, no taste on Chinese New Year's Eve, and no taste in January. This is the taste of the rest of your life.
At night, crimson lanterns are hung up and illuminate the dreary night sky, and the snow falls silently like cotton wool.
Mu Beiyi brought the phoenix crown to see her. Pillow Chun sat on the embroidery pier and read a book, and when he saw him coming, he didn't want to stand up. She lowered her eyelids and slowly folded the scroll into a small corner and closed the title page. Only then did he call: "Your Majesty." ”
"The day after tomorrow is the main hall after the closure, how can you still sit lazily." Mu Beiyi came in with his robe, his face was warm by the warm breeze, and he sat down on the left side of the pillow spring, "Today, there is a recital, saying that your brother's political achievements are quite good." "It was only meant to comfort her," I thought was justified. The functions of the Zhongshu Province are heavy, and there are times when there is a replacement. In the case of the squire and the assistant government, your brother is considered young. ”
"Good is right, and it should be done for His Majesty. It would be better if Your Majesty valued the eldest brother and instructed him to go out and train for a few years. "Pillow spring plain hand tea, sprinkling flower foam in the tea," a man should be determined in the world. ”
Mu Beiyi felt rare, and said: "Everyone else thinks it's good to serve in Beijing, but you still tell your brother to go out." ”
"My father is already very prosperous, and it doesn't have to be good to settle down in everything." Pillow Chun sighed, "Like Queen Liu's family, it used to be the same scenery, but now it is only the end of the Nine Clans." The second brother of the concubine has sacrificed his life for the country, and the eldest brother is the only bloodline of his father, and it is enough to ask for peace. ”
This was very unpleasant, Mu Beiyi frowned: "You are not the same as her family, your father knows the severity, and your brother is also diligent." Saying that, he closed his eyes tiredly, leaned his head on the soft pillow, and sighed, "You are worried about the matter of Queen Liu in your heart, and I can see one or two truths." In fact, Queen Liu is only respectful and cautious, and she is the temperament of her wife. But she was jealous, and she didn't have the appearance of such a gentle appearance. ”
Pillow Chun stepped forward to untie his crown, and selected the silver strands in his dense black hair with the light. The snow has not yet cleared, and under the faint light, Mu Beiyi's hair still looks as black as ever. Pillow Chun looked carefully, and he could see the white hair inside, which was not obvious at all, but it could not be concealed. She said: "Your Majesty, the white horse has passed the gap, and you are not confused." ”
Mu Beiyi grabbed Pillow Chun's hand and said in a low voice: "Yes." I don't want to get old, I want to spend the rest of my life with you for decades. ”
It was unprecedented despair.
Pillow Chun closed his eyes tightly, but his voice was smiling, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love." She breathed slowly, calming her mind, "There are still many people who will spend decades with Your Majesty. Concubine Zhenxian, Concubine Rongde, Concubine Jing, Concubine Ya...... Your Majesty, there are too many to count. ”
Mu Beiyi moved, slept on Zhuchun's lap, and said lightly: "You are not happy." ”
Pillow Chun gently rubbed the corners of his forehead for him: "Queen Liu is a concubine, and the concubine can't laugh." The concubine and Queen Liu have a discord, and being above everyone is not the whole of happiness. The concubine can serve the snake as a happy state, but the concubine doesn't want to. ”
"Power struggles have always been about right and wrong, only about whether they are good or not." Mu Beiyi slowly exhaled turbidity, "I have no choice. Eleven Niang, you understand these truths, so you understand me. ”
The dim red light shone on Pillow Chun's face and Mu Beiyi's face. It is difficult for him to be an emperor, and Pillow Chun knows it. An emperor who killed his mother and empress, he treated too many women badly with his good skin and good means. I wonder if the souls of these women, in the middle of the night, ever came to his dreams.
But he did not treat the people of the world and the ancestors and ancestors badly, he guarded the country and quelled the disaster, he can be called a virtuous king. A thousand-year-old empire, tens of millions of people and thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, concentrated in the hands of one person, a thousand pounds. Can this person be a gentle, attentive and tender man?
Mu Beiyi is also a mortal, and he is not exempt from vulgarity.
Pillow Chun was relieved: "The concubine knows." She said, "My brother is also very good as a Chinese scholar, and it is also good to be transferred from Lejing." It's good to be the concubine of the Ming Emperor, and it's also good to be the queen. In the future, the concubines will work with you not to talk about whether it is right or not, but only whether it is good or not. Everything is good, and the concubine knows. ”
"Eleven Niang. You say, can you and I do it all over again? ”
Pillow Chun was slightly stunned and silent.
"The first time I saw you, you were under the eightfold black dragon. There is a long sky of autumn twilight, and there are waves of green water below. Mu Beiyi suddenly opened his eyes. His pupils were as black as ink, and he looked at Pillow Spring, "We can start over then." ”
Pillow Chun sneered and laughed: "Your Majesty, even if you come with your concubines again, it will be like this now." You are the emperor of the world, and I am your wife and concubine. Concubine Zhenxian is Concubine Zhenxian, and Concubine Rongde is Concubine Rongde. Your Majesty, you are tired. ”
When Mu Beiyi was not confused, he lost two wives in a row, and suddenly a kind of juvenile feeling arose. This kind of juvenile feeling is very heavy, and he suddenly wants to treat a woman sincerely. He wanted to be sincere with a woman who was smart, beautiful, and always by his side. He thought of Pillow Spring, who was lightly clothed under the eightfold black dragon and prayed to the tree. It was pure and clean, like a water source.
He suddenly wanted to do something he had never done in his life before - to love someone. Not grace and favoritism, but the love of mortals.
He presents this extravagant confession to An Zhuchun, who is about to become his third wife.
Pillow Chun doesn't believe it anymore.
Mu Beiyi could feel the change in her, and he suddenly felt guilty. He wants her to know the rights and wrongs of the front and back courts, to be his companion to relieve his worries, and he wants her to always be as clear as in the past, like the innocence of a girl.
This is the real dream.
Mu Beiyi felt tired, and the world was safe and perfect.
The two were intimately attached to each other, Mu Beiyi lay on Zhu Chun's knees, and Zhu Chun's soft fingertips brushed Mu Beiyi's hair. is like a pair of partners who rely on each other, but there seems to be a trench in their hearts.
"Eleven Niang." Mu Beiyi was unwilling, and reached out to put his hand on Pillow Chun's cheek, wanting to ask again.
Before the words fell, he heard Feng Tang's voice behind the screen: "Your Majesty, the rush from southern Xinjiang is coming." ”
Since the death of Liu Zhuguo, many incidents have gradually arisen in southern Xinjiang. Replacement of rights, these are inevitable things. The political affairs before Mu Beiyi's case were like a stack of mountains, and I had seen it when I served the pen and ink. She shook Mu Beiyi's hand without a trace and stroked him to get up: "Political affairs are important, but Your Majesty must also combine work and rest, don't be too tired." ”
Mu Beiyi bowed his head, closed his placket to go, and saw the dark sky outside. Suddenly, he turned his head and said, "The people of Lanyue Pavilion, you have to dispose of it." ”
"Yue Wanyi?" Pillow Chun thought for a while, gently scratched his head through the bun, and sent out two steps, "What does Your Majesty think?" ”
"Concubine Zhenxian killed with the main staff and admonished me three times. I thought it would be okay. ”
Xue Chuling was afraid that he hated it deeply. Pillow spring chin, "Since that's the case......"
Mu Beiyi said: "Si'er's days are still very long, so I can't say it too ugly." ”
The fourth prince is now raised by Concubine Ya for the time being. Concubine Jiang has nothing to do, because she was given medicine by Empress Dowager Zhuang Yi. If you talk about Concubine Ya, Pillow Spring is also admired. After thinking for a while, he replied: "The concubine will go to see tomorrow, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about such a trivial matter." ”
Mu Beiyi was relieved. He took off his robe and went out into the snow and mist, and when he looked back, Pillow Spring had already entered the warm pavilion. He called: "Eleven Niang." ”
Pillow Chun came out again slowly, leaned against the door frame to look at him, and asked, "What's wrong with Your Majesty?" ”
"I can make Huailing the prince, and I can do it at the ceremony after tomorrow."
He was a little like a kid at this point. He wanted to make Pillow Spring happy, but he didn't know what Pillow Haru wanted. He had to grope all over the cuffs of his body, and what he took out was power, glory and wealth. That's all he has, so he has to show it to Pillow Spring.
Pillow Chun suddenly understood him, and smiled faintly: "If you don't have a reserve, Huai Ling can't say a few words." His Majesty hurriedly set up a prince, Yu Guozuo was uneasy, and the concubines did not dare to accept it. If you feel sorry for your concubine, and your concubine wants to eat wild spring berries, she thinks about it a lot these days. ”
Mu Beiyi thought, this tube is enough. Said: "Eight hundred miles urgently." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love." Pillow spring shallow blessing body.
Mu Beiyi just left. He hurried towards the imperial study, and it was dark, and he walked into a miserable white mist.
Zhu Chun leaned against the door and looked at it, remembering An Lingjun's back when he was leaving.
The next day the snow cleared. Thousands of acres of sky light were sprinkled, shining warmly on the courtyard.
Pillow Chun did not shy away from the purple clothes and phoenix crown of Jiufeng, and sat on the queen's phoenix to drive to Lanyue Pavilion. At that time, Mu Beiyi also said that there was a moon in the name of the crescent moon, and it was very suitable to live in Lanyue Pavilion.
Thinking about it one by one, revenge doesn't seem so comforting.
Everything on the palace road is born, indescribably soft and fresh. When you look around, you can see the high spring sky. Just out of the Jianghe Palace, the catkins are soft and soft, and a person in blue clothes slowly walks over in the direction of Xunluzhai.
"Ruo'er." Pillow Chun took two steps forward and beckoned to her.
If Duanmu saw that it was Pillow Spring, he laughed: "Sister." She stood very close, looked at Pillow Chun with joy, and said, "My sister is white-skinned, she looks good in purple, and she looks good in a phoenix crown." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gently twisted the tidbits on the pillow bun.
Pillow Spring patted the queen's sedan chair like a treasure: "This thing is spacious, and it is better than the past." Come up and sit down with me. ”
"Sister is not taboo, the palace people have to chew the root of the tongue." Duanmu Ruo covered his lips with a handkerchief and said with a low smile, "After my sister is sealed, I won't feel fresh when I sit every day." You are so interesting, tomorrow's queen of the Great Wei Kingdom, occupy a sedan chair and ask me to sit in a concubine room. ”
"Concubine?" Pillow Chun didn't care, "What about his wife and concubine." Look at ......," she pointed to the soft pillows embroidered with dragons and phoenixes on the sedan chair and the velvet couch with treasure patterns, "Come on, come on, it's not bumpy at all to walk." Those who are not virtuous and deceive men like Your Majesty. ”
"Sister...... Don't mess around. Duanmu Ruo shrugged softly.
The two looked at each other and laughed.
