Chapter 743: Sorrowful and Sick
When the eldest princess chose King Fu, her grandson-in-law, she never thought that the Weiguo Mansion would be involved in the center of the whirlpool of the battle for the throne, because no matter from which point of view, King Fu had no possibility of succeeding to the throne, although the position of the crown prince was not as stable as Mount Tai, but it was obvious that the first emperor did not intend to establish King Fu as the prince.
At the beginning, Gaozu died, the kings competed for the throne, and Taizong was the eldest princess's brother, so of course she stood firm.
Taizong wanted to grow up because he favored the concubine King Kang, because the empress dowager was also the daughter of the Yan family, and the eldest princess had always been close, and it was impossible for the Weiguo Mansion to stand by and watch at that time.
I didn't expect that although there were people on the dragon chair right now, there was a curtain to supervise the government, so that the power of the monarchy was divided into people's hands.
The eldest princess may not know that she is suspicious and self-absorbed today, even if the Weiguo Mansion is loyal, she can't win trust, at most it is just the end of the bird's bow.
Not to mention the sister-in-law relationship with the Empress Dowager for most of her life, because the first emperor did have the will to supervise the government and temporarily handed over the authority of the monarchy to the Ci'an Palace to grasp this reason, it is impossible for the eldest princess to "go against the grain" and help the Son of Heaven seize power, and turn against the Empress Dowager.
And Yu Feng's analysis is clear, once the empress dowager moves the determination to abolish the throne, there is a chance that Brother Shun, who is still a child, will ascend the throne, at least before Brother Shun'er gets married, Ci'an Palace will have the right to supervise the government, and powerful ministers such as Wei Guogong will inevitably be able to assist the government at that time.
If this is the result, the Patriotic Mansion will not be able to fade out of officialdom and take care of itself.
At present, even if the Empress Dowager has not yet made up her mind, the Son of Heaven will not give up, and the contradictions between the two ancestors and grandchildren will inevitably become a chasm that cannot be filled.
It was only a matter of time before the evolution of the swords met.
Ke Yijing thinks that this seems to be not the best time for a "showdown", according to her understanding of Yu Feng, even if she has to explain a lot today, it can be aimed at the Qin family as the main purpose, so as not to be open and honest and have a heart of "not being subordinate", and let the grandmother feel that she has the feeling of "marrying the Son of Heaven", and hesitates.
It is possible to wait until the contradiction between the "two sages" further intensifies and evolves, and the empress dowager has to make up her mind to make up her mind, because at that time, it is impossible for the grandmother to ignore the will of the first emperor, and she must also stand on the side of Ci'an Palace, unlike at this time, there is a void of heart to take the initiative to seek power in order to let Brother Shun take the position and the Ninth Five-Year Plan.
The prince's "can't wait" made Yijing feel weird and faintly worried.
On this night, when she fulfilled her promise - finally a short period of turmoil has passed, she promised to go to the eastern suburbs to live in the garden for two days, it happened that the seventh sister had also been out of the cabinet at the beginning of the month, but the wedding date of the eighth mother was in September, Xu's hands were completely free, and there was no need for Yijing to assist in affairs, and she should also return to her husband's house.
Everything was going well, but Yijing was inevitably worried, hesitated, or didn't ask again, after all, these days Yu Feng alone has to arrange the overall situation, it is really wasteful, now that the plan has been known to the Guogong Mansion, then the collective efforts will always make him greatly reduce the burden, from this level, it is really a good thing.
Things have come to this point, in fact, there is no second choice in the Patriotic Mansion, and the eldest princess may be slightly ashamed because of her "selfish desires" first, but in the final analysis, if the Son of Heaven is not so suspicious and self-absorbed and strictly follows the will of the first emperor step by step, let alone the future, even the current situation will not be in such a situation.
The eldest princess is not a pedantic person, and as for Wei Guogong, she has never been educated by "foolish loyalty".
The troubles will be short-lived, but the decision should be bold.
Yijing just mentioned Xiaoxiao - right now, the Empress Dowager has completely justified her name, and no one will attack her under the pretext of her abduction in the future, and it is time to welcome Xiaoxiao back.
Originally thought that Yu Feng would elaborate on the plan - Yi Jing knew that he and Xiliang had been in correspondence, did Yu Haoxi agree to take the initiative to return Xiaoxiao, if he was still paranoid, he should take other strategies, and at this time, Qi had told the Empress Dowager about sending Xiaoxiao as a hostage for the time being to Xiliang, and he could force Yu Haoxi to comply, wasn't the method already thought out earlier?
But Yu Feng said: "It's time." ”
That's as simple as that.
"It's easy to ask for leave, let me be quiet for these two days, Xiaoxiao's matter is a thing, now that the Empress Dowager is in the court, the cabinet is afraid that she will have to be busy, and she will not be idle in the future. The prince even pleaded.
On the evening of June, the galaxy was clear, the moonlight was clear, the warm wind rolled up the floating fragrance, he suddenly hugged her in his arms from behind, his chin rested on his shoulder, his breath lingered in his ears, and the Lan Pond in front of him shone out of the jade rabbit in the sky, a piece of silver sparkling slightly, and the lotus leaves were like the embroidered skirt, lining out the hibiscus slender pavilion.
How many doubts and faint worries were quietly suppressed in the bottom of my heart.
Two days are free, but in the blink of an eye.
During the day, the sun is scorching, and it is not a good season to visit the mountains and rivers, so the two of them sit in the tea room surrounded by green bamboo, a cup of tea, or sit and talk, or snuggle up to each other to read a book, listen to the sound of the wind and the sound of the bamboo, open the window sash, and the shadow of the sun is deep and shallow.
In the evening, there is no longer a steaming and scorching heat on the ground, and then ride to the suburbs, watch the sunset slowly sink to the foot of the mountain, a pool of bright red, washed away by the night.
Along the corridor of the lake, the carved lacquer is mottled and old compared to that year, and on several lake stones outside the corridor, a lot of new words have been added, the two stopped to take a closer look, arguing about the merits of the two sentences, whether it is a new work or an old question.
It's the night before leaving - after all, Yu Feng and the prince, and the cabinet bachelor, the Son of Heaven at that time deliberately treated him coldly and can still steal a leisure, now the empress dowager is in the court, and he has made great efforts in the matter of Yijing, and it is clear that Yu Feng has to be reused, after two days off, of course, the prince wants to participate in the court meeting, after all, the garden is in the suburbs, there are many inconveniences, and Yijing does not want him to toss every day to get up early and return late.
But after the meal, the prince suddenly had an interest in the game, and set up a game in the high pavilion, first he had the upper hand, and Yijing pinched a chess piece for a long time and didn't know where it fell, the prince was "arrogant", and stretched a happy lazy waist: "I'll go down to bathe first, and when I come back, if the princess is still at a loss, it will be considered a loss." ”
When he returned, the glow was still on the horizon, although it was already faint.
In the dark sky, the princess smiled triumphantly, obviously finding a way to deal with it.
The prince looked a little unconvinced, and when he looked at it in the past, he became cautious, and the two of them went back and forth, and the vertical and horizontal black and white glued.
Before you know it, the night is already filled, the water and the sky are twilight, and the mountains are beautiful.
The princess lit the lamp with her own hands, moved to the chess table, and when she looked up, she saw that the prince had half shoulder-length hair, his eyebrows were locked, and a black spot between his fingers was no longer thrown, and he was pinched between his fingers motionlessly.
The beautiful scenery also colored: "I will also go down to bathe, and when I return, if the prince is still at a loss, he will lose." "Gone with schadenfreude.
When he returned, the only ray of neon light in the distant sky was also swallowed by the gloom, and the galaxy was gradually brightening, and Chanjuan was higher than the bamboo tops.
The candles on the high pavilion are flickering, but the people on the couch have become half-leaning, with long eyes closed, but they have fallen asleep.
That game of chess is obviously still unsolved.
Yi Jing frowned slightly, and touched his palm lightly, but it was cold.
"Far away." There was some anxiety and doubt in his voice.
Yu Feng opened his eyes at this time, and he didn't know if the moonlight was shining, and his face was pale.
There was a moment of trance in his gaze.
I just felt dizzy again, I wanted to be strong, didn't I fall asleep again?
"But you feel uncomfortable?" Yi Jing leaned over and stroked his forehead, feeling cold.
"I was stumped by the princess, so I simply admitted defeat, but I closed my eyes and recuperated, but I made it difficult to name Xiaoxiao, and it has been nearly a year, but I still haven't thought about it." He spoke, and his tone was still turbulent, so he covered it up again: "I feel a little sleepy and confused for a while." ”
"It's cool in the window, go to bed and rest." Yijing helped people sit up, still not at ease: "You weren't so sleepy before, it's just night, if you feel unwell, don't hide it from me, your body is already weak, and you can't afford to delay, I think it's better to let people enter the city and ask for a medical officer, and it's not yet curfew." ”
If you wait for the gates to be closed, you will have to toss again.
"It's okay, it's just that this section is a little tiring, don't toss, I'll go back to the house one by one, and then send someone back, so that my grandmother is worried."
Yu Feng paid special attention to his pace and tried his best to walk steadily, but when he sat on the bed, he was suffocated in his chest again, and his throat rushed to Tianling, so that his vision became blurred, and he couldn't even see the beautiful look clearly, he simply hugged the person into his arms and asked her to turn around, so as not to find out his abnormality.
"Yijing, tell me about Xiaoxiao, I couldn't save her back at that time, I'm really ashamed to ask, now I've finally survived the danger, finally, I can pick her up, I dare to listen to her...... If you tell me more, maybe I'll be inspired to think of our daughter's name. ”
He took a deep breath, trying to use the fragrance in her lapel to dispel the dizziness that was holding him down, and try to clear his mind.
The arms are also tighter and tighter, locking Yijing's thin waist, and under the middle coat, her warm body skin can always make him steady.
Yu Feng listened to her, recalled when Xiaoxiao opened her eyes, and described her daughter's eyebrows in detail.
A child who loves to laugh does not recognize life, his eyes are extraordinarily bright, and his small mouth is like delicate petals.
As soon as he was born, he had double black eyebrows, and when he was half a year old, he became more and more beautiful.
He thought, Xiaoxiao must have followed her.
Her account was indeed a good medicine that soothed the dizziness.
Fortunately, this time he did not fall into a coma, and his vision gradually cleared, but Yu Feng only felt a sudden pain in the corners of his eyes.
Increasing frequency of vertigo, resulting in short and short lethargy......
tried his best to avoid it, the medical officer and Jiang Han said that the illness was serious, I am afraid that it cannot be avoided, it is that the oil is exhausted, and the medicine stone is incurable, so cruel.
Reluctant, just leave, how willing, both lives are so short, even if there has been a good life in this life, he can know his lover well, but he still has no regrets.
He hadn't even met Xiaoxiao, their daughter.
He still wants to live hard, with the woman in his arms dyed white by the years, watching his children and grandchildren surround his knees.
But in case, the number of lives is like this, beautiful scenery......
The man in his arms suddenly rolled over and looked firmly into his eyes.
Grief is hasty and cannot be concealed.
"Yuanyang, what's wrong?" Her palm touched his cheek, trembling slightly.
I was really frightened by the sadness in his eyes.
"Yijing, I said if, if, in case, ......" Some words are clearly difficult to press, but when it reaches his lips and teeth, they become like thousands of words, and he doesn't have the strength to say it.
So with a light sigh, he only kissed her long and deeply, entangled with her and sunk with her, urgent and irresistible, leaving all reason behind.
She struggled to breathe, and finally struggled out of the gap, still stubbornly looking into his eyes: "What if, what if...... Yuanyang, finish speaking. She was clearly emotional, and her tone trembled slightly, but she still asked relentlessly.
He kissed his ear: "Don't ask, don't ask tonight, I'll tell you tomorrow." ”
Sealed with a kiss again, this time, she was not given a chance to ask again.
This night, when Yu Feng went to sleep, the beautiful scenery was still through the lightness of the landscape ink tent, looking at the bright moon with missing corners outside the half-carved window for a long time, the heat on his cheeks dissipated, but the throbbing in his chest did not subside for a long time.
She clearly felt his grief, and this emotion seemed to be infected through her lips and tongue, and she just wanted to use all her enthusiasm to calm and ease.
But why?
Clearly, everything went so smoothly, why did he do this?
It doesn't make sense to worry about that future matchup, he has never been a person who is afraid of things.
Yijing turned around and looked at the sleeping face of the person next to the pillow, his eyebrows were calm, his breathing was slow, and everything seemed to be no different from the past.
She kissed his eyebrows, the slightest touch had already made him aware of it, and although he was still not awake, he subconsciously hugged her waist, and her lips were tightly pressed to her ears.
In the middle of a whisper, calling her name.
Through the heartbeat of the sari, calm and bright, under her palm.
Maybe it was the mention of his daughter that made him sad...... She thought so.
At last, it was in harmony with his breath that he fell asleep before the light of day.
