The funeral of the little prince went on so silently, and even, because he died before he turned one year old, he didn't even have a family tree, let alone be buried in the imperial mausoleum. In the end, I just found a place with better feng shui to bury.

For this matter, the Zhou family of the court united several families to write a letter to ask for the little prince's life, let him enter the royal family tree, and bury him in the imperial mausoleum.

Si Yue's mood has not been very good these days, and he is even a little irritable. Seeing him like this, Lin Su instructed Qiu Yan to prepare some ingredients to regulate the fire, and occasionally cook some food to send to Si Yue.

Si Yue will only relax slightly when he sees Lin Su, talk to Lin Su, and touch Lin Su's bulging abdomen to feel the child's fetal movement.

Seeing that Si Yue was more and more concerned about the children in the Zhou family's womb, the smile on Lin Su's face also increased. However, in the afternoon of this day, when she sent lily lotus seed porridge to Si Yue as an afternoon snack as usual, Chang Fugui suddenly knocked on the door outside and reported that the queen was coming.

Zhou Shuxian?

Lin Su, who was sitting in the lounge in the study and talking with Si Yue, was slightly stunned, and then got up a little uncomfortably, avoiding Si Yue's hand that fell on his abdomen, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the queen must have come here for the little prince's affairs, concubine, or avoid it first?" ”

"You just wait here, don't go out." Si Yue took a deep breath, rubbed his brows, then stood up and walked behind the desk outside, and then asked Chang Fugui to bring Zhou Shuxian in.

Lin Su listened quietly in the room as the door was opened and Zhou Shuxian came in. The whole person slowly stood up, walked lightly behind the curtain in the inner room, and eavesdropped on the people inside.

In the study, Zhou Shuxian's face was pale, her lips were pale and there were some wounds that had cracked due to lack of water, and there seemed to be a trace of blood faintly.

Si Yue looked at Zhou Shuxian no longer as delicate and beautiful as before, and the whole person looked pale and embarrassed, and sighed and asked her to get up, "Sit down, you are not in good health, and your spirit is not good, why don't you stay in the Chaofeng Hall to rest, is there anything urgent to come to me?" ”

"It's about the funeral of the little prince." Zhou Shuxian glanced up at Si Yue, with a hint of grievance in her expression, "The concubine knows that the emperor is reluctant to mention the little prince so as not to be sad." But, after all, it was our child. Although he is not yet one year old, he cannot be buried in the imperial tomb after death......"

"Queen, if this is what you want to talk about, then you can go back and recuperate first." Si Yue interrupted Zhou Shuxian's words, his expression cold. He casually picked up the fold that was put aside, and never looked at Zhou Shuxian again.

Seeing this, Zhou Shuxian's face turned even paler, stood up and took two steps forward to stand in front of the desk.

"Your Majesty, the concubine begs you. The concubine did not ask the little prince to let him enter the Tibetan imperial mausoleum, but only wanted him to be recorded in the royal family tree. After all, he has always had royal blood flowing in his body, and he is the emperor's first son. Even though the fate of father and son is not deep enough, the emperor has also hugged him......"

"Don't talk about it, Queen." Si Yue put down the fold in his hand, frowned at Zhou Shuxian's tearful eyes, and said in a low voice: "Look at your current appearance, your face is pale, the whole person has lost weight, and her clothes can't stand up, it looks like a gust of wind can be blown away." You are like this, how can I rest assured. ”

"Your Majesty......" Zhou Shuxian sighed in a low voice, looking up at Si Yue and pleading. After all, it was our child, and the concubine didn't want him to die so silently, as if he had never existed. She grabbed Si Yue's hand, "Your Majesty, the concubine knows that she has done a lot of wrong things, but the little prince is innocent after all...... He's just a kid who doesn't understand anything. Now that he is dead, how the emperor wants to punish the concubines, the concubines have no complaints, but the little prince is just an ignorant young son after all, even if the emperor has any dissatisfaction with the concubines, he should not blame it on the children who have died. ”

"Don't talk about it anymore......" Si Yue slowly withdrew his hand from Zhou Shuxian's hand, "I will consider what you say." ”

"Your Majesty," Zhou Shuxian took a step back in distraction, looked at Si Yue's cold expression again, and finally couldn't help crying, "Your Majesty, a husband and wife for a hundred days...... Concubine, retire! ”

She turned to leave, but Si Yue kept that posture for a long time without moving. Lin Su secretly watched inside, hesitated for a moment, and then opened the door curtain and walked over slowly.

"The emperor ......" she called Si Yue in a low voice, and then helped Si Yue to sit down, and said in a low voice: "The concubine heard a few words from the emperor and the queen before, if the emperor is willing, can you listen to the concubine?" ”

"Say." Si Yue replied in a deep voice, but he never looked up at Lin Su again.

Lin Su still knew a little about Si Yue's thoughts and struggles in his heart. In her impression, although Si Yue was a ruthless king, there was still the softest place in his heart. In any case, the little prince is Si Yue's child, and he is the first child. Although Lin Su was able to transfer most of Si Yue's love for the child to the fetus in his womb, he couldn't erase the pain of Si Yue's loss of his first child.

Therefore, she went through what she wanted to say in her heart, and then spoke in a low voice: "Maybe the emperor doesn't like to hear what the concubine says, but as the saying goes, pity the parents of the world for you, what the queen said to the emperor before was all from the heart of a mother who had just suffered the pain of losing her child." Although the concubine has not really become a mother, she understands the queen's mood by comparing her heart to her heart. After all, it is the instinct of every woman who is a mother to want the best that she can give her children. ”

Lin Su watched Si Yue's expression slowly relax, and his voice became softer, "Your Majesty, although the queen's request is a little contrary to the ancestral teachings...... However, it is not excessive. After all, the little prince is the son of the emperor and the blood of the royal family, and it is reasonable to record his name on the family tree of the royal family...... The Emperor ......"

Lin Su stepped forward and squatted down lightly, looking up at Si Yue, "No matter what the queen mother has done, the little prince is innocent after all...... He's just a kid who doesn't know anything...... He is not only the child of the queen, but also the child of the emperor. ”

"Su'er......" Si Yue looked down at Lin Su, frowned a little awkwardly, and then said in a low voice: "You have always understood my intentions, and you can always guess what makes me embarrassed. The kid ...... The kid ......."
