831 Unfulfilled Wishes (Three Watches
Hearing that the boat was going to stop and go ashore, Lan Qi thought that everyone would go, and she didn't want the big boat to lean on the river the next day, but the emperor took off his dragon robe and took her to pay a private visit. I still remember the little girl who was stingy and stingy at the door, and I still remember that the shopkeeper in the tavern called them young master and young grandmother, time flies, and the two of them have added silver threads to their hair, but each other's feelings have accumulated deeper and deeper over the years.
The people who were farming in the fields saw the old man and lady in brocade clothes coming, but regardless of the dirtiness of the fields, they generously sat on the haystack and talked with them, and borrowed their coarse porcelain bowls to drink the tea soup brewed by the end of the tea. Lan Qi has long been accustomed to the life of brocade clothes and jade food, drinking tea is made of mountain spring dew, the best tea leaves in the country are sent to the palace every year, and the old tea is used to fill the pillow core, this turbid and bitter tea soup is in the mouth, it is really difficult to swallow, but watching Xuan Ye drinking, laughing and laughing with the farmer, she also tried to let herself swallow the tea soup.
When leaving, Lan Qi grabbed a few pieces of broken silver given by Huanchun when she went out and gave them to the little grandson of that family, and when she walked away with Xuan Ye, she heard the emperor ask her: "You can't swallow the tea just now?" ”
Lan Qi nodded awkwardly: "Don't blame me, the emperor has been in the palace for thirty years, and his food and clothing are the best in the world, and the concubines also want to be close to the people like you, but they really can't do it." ”
Xuan Ye said with a smile: "I can't swallow that tea, but when I think that the common people are drinking such tea soup, ploughing the territory of the Qing Dynasty with a hoe and a hoe, I feel that there is nothing I can't drink." When we went to Wutai Mountain, Wen Xian met a farmer cooking by the river with me, and a bowl of brown rice was served with pickles, and it was delicious. You're not as good as your daughter. ”
Lan Qi smiled with satisfaction: "The child is stronger than me, and he is the pride of being a mother." Now that I think about it, Wen Xian can really afford it, and she is the emperor's daughter. ”
Xuan Ye glanced at her with a smile, gently asked her to be careful under her feet, walked hand in hand to the field, and looked at the endless field. It is the spring ploughing season, full of fertile soil, farmers with better conditions and oxen ploughing the land, not very good can only rely on both hands to turn the soil, row by row to sow seeds, hard work and wind rain irrigation, in order to have a grain harvest, Xuan Ye said with emotion: "I have never ploughed an acre of land, never planted a single rice, the Qing Dynasty is dependent on these people's hard work to feed, I occasionally be confused, the imperial throne, what is it?" ”
Lan Qi said with a smile: "That's really something that the emperor will be puzzled about, for the farmer, God has abundant rain and few disasters, so he is satisfied." For the concubines, the emperor is in good health, and his children and grandchildren are safe and prosperous, and they are also satisfied. Everyone thinks differently, there can only be one king in a generation, the emperor doesn't expect someone to be able to solve the way of kings for you, you have to rely on the experience of your predecessors, and rely on your own understanding. ”
Xuan Ye sighed: "It's a big truth casually, I can't catch up with you, the books I read to you in those years have not been in vain." ”
Lan Qi shook her head again and again: "I don't want to read those books again for the rest of my life, at that time, I thought that I would read more books, I could talk to you, have a temperament and connotation, and be a noble and decent harem concubine." is really young and enthusiastic, and now that he is old, he is bland, and he only thinks about whether the emperor's daily meal can be eaten well, and he only thinks about whether his little grandchildren have grown up. ”
Between the words, Xuan Ye was already in love with the depths, took out the words in his heart, and said involuntarily: "At that time, I was thinking, how to be a good emperor to make the world submit and tell the old ministers to shut up, but now that I am old, I am worried about how this dragon chair will be passed on, I am afraid that my sons will break their heads, and I am afraid that after a hundred years, the court will shake the country." I'm afraid that my hard work all my life will be trampled by them. ”
Lan Qi frowned when she heard this, and looked at Xuan Ye worriedly, Xuan Ye was also surprised that he said such a thing again, let out a long sigh of relief, and smiled: "So I can't be greedy for pleasure, even if it is hard to the last moment of my life, it is good that this majestic country will prosper for one more day." ”
"Anyway, I'm with you."
"Otherwise, who will you find to accompany you?"
The warmth of the two looking at each other and smiling warmed the spring breeze, Xuan Ye couldn't help but raise the back of her hand and kiss it gently, he said: "If God gives me a long life, it probably doesn't mean that I want to be an emperor for a few more years." ”
Lan Qi was puzzled, and asked with a smile what it was, Xuan Ye held her hand tightly and said, "I want to be with you for a few more years in my life." ”
"Just returned to the heroic grandeur of the world, and in the blink of an eye, I made up good words to coax people." Lan Qi's heart was sweet and warm, and she looked at him affectionately and said, "If you meet in the next life, you don't want to be an emperor, don't have three wives and four concubines, and guard me alone for the rest of your life." ”
Xuan Ye bowed his head and said softly: "If I owe you in this life, I will repay you in the next life, so that in the next life, I will definitely be able to find you." ”
Lan Qi smiled hypocritically: "It's really unfair to think that I will have to serve you in the next life." ”
The laughter drifted in the field with the wind, the wind and the sun were beautiful and the clouds were light and light, who didn't want to stop in this beautiful and peaceful time, but as emperors and princesses, they were destined to be unquiet in their lives.
At this moment, the prince and the concubine returned to the capital, and the concubine returned to the inner palace to help take care of the aftermath of the nineteenth elder brother, but between the courtiers and the elder brothers, they talked about the prince being sent back, for them, whether the nineteenth elder brother was born to a concubine or a woman of the Han family, it doesn't matter at all, the important thing is that the prince is in such a situation now, when will it be the end.
In the early years, the emperor regarded the prince as a treasure, raised by his side since he was a child, and the children born to the favored concubines in the harem have never been treated like this, but year after year, when the ministers suddenly woke up, the emperor and the prince were not the father and son of the year, some people say that the prince tossed away the emperor's trust in him by himself, and some people say that it was the harem concubines who made the stumbling block blow the pillow wind, and the emperor was dissatisfied with the prince, no matter what the reason, the prince's position could not be kept, it was a matter of time.
Hate hate the emperor to hang this matter in the air, the ministers want a team, to hold a group, to block the life of the net worth to press the chips, so that the drag on year after year, seeing that the prince is about to be driven crazy, the ministers are impatient, so they gradually made another voice, rather than waiting for the emperor to re-elect someone and they lean on the past, it is better to support a certain one, and fully support when the East Palace is shaken in the future, the emperor is a person after all, the ministers really reported the group, and he can't sit idly by.
On that day, the men of the uncle's mansion gathered in Tong Guowei's study to discuss important matters, and after the incident, he left a few descendants, Long Keduo stood aside, saw Shun Anyan serving tea to Tong Guowei, and brought him a bowl of uncle by the way, Long Keduo smiled: "Anyway, you used to be the brother-in-law of Sibeiler's relatives, and now you are generously close to Babel, don't say that people criticize you, can Babeile be heartfelt to you?" Why bother sticking a hot face to someone's cold ass? ”
Tong Guowei coughed dryly, Long Keduo smiled, and turned his face away unconvinced, and Tong Guowei asked him: "You have done a good job on your errands recently, do you want to find something else to do?" ”
Long Keduo shook his head: "My nephew is fine now, he has a good errand, you can leave it to Shun Anyan." ”
Tong Guowei said: "We and the four Baylors, after all, we are related to each other, why don't you go to the Baylor Mansion to walk around more in the future, don't you and Alinga talk?" With the relationship between their family Fujin, in short, whatever you want is almost done, I will arrange for you to report a few errands to Sibeile, and you will do it well later. ”
Long Keduo was puzzled, and Tong Guowei said frankly: "Now that everyone is tossing outside, the emperor hasn't thought about it yet, they have chosen the new prince first." You are all descendants of the Tong family, one is prosperous and one is lost, Shun Anyan followed the eighth elder brother, you go to follow the fourth elder brother. If something happens in the future, Shun Anyan will always pull his uncle as a nephew, and if you are an uncle, don't leave your nephew. ”
Long Keduo looked at his uncle suspiciously, and then looked at Shun Anyan, the young man was expressionless, standing quietly aside, seeing his uncle staring at him, he bowed his head slightly, Long Keduo smiled bitterly: "Also, the fourth elder brother beat you like that at the beginning, and there was nothing to say in the second half of the sentence, and it was strange that you would work hard to get together again." He sighed again and said, "Uncle, but Sibel is afraid that he will not look down on me, and may not be close to me." ”
Tong Guowei sneered: "You can't look at it, you only know if you try it." ”
After Long Keduo left, Tong Guowei called his grandson to him and asked earnestly: "Are you determined to follow the eighth elder brother?" Although he is good, he can be dwarf everywhere, I don't think the emperor may choose him, and he has often been involved in right and wrong recently, and he is with the eldest brother, what do you have to do with him? ”
Shun Anyan said calmly: "What happens in the future can be said, what if the eighth elder brother wins?" The emperor was a child sent out by the first emperor, and his aunt and grandmother were not treated by the first emperor, so the emperor didn't become the emperor in the same way. ”
Tong Guowei touched his pale beard, thoughtfully, and said to his grandson after a while: "Then you have to concentrate on pushing Babeile to the top position, otherwise you will lose." Sighing heavily, "Your aunt's last wish, I'm afraid it won't come true, our family and Yonghe Palace really don't match." ”
On the same day, Yinzhen came back from the palace after the death of the nineteenth elder brother, in fact, the funeral of the adult prince is very simple, and there is no need for the prince to rush back at all, saying that the prince born to the concubines of the Mengman family and the concubines of the Han family should be treated equally, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty is Manchurian, and tens of thousands of ordinary people are Han people, and the four words of equal treatment are probably simple to write.
Yinzhen said to Yuxi: "Huang Ama temporarily decided to send the prince back, and he had to send the prince out when he turned around, and it was really hard for him to go back and forth." The prince wants me to go with him later, do you want to go out for a walk? ”
Yuxi shook his head, saying that he was not comfortable going out like that, and while talking, someone came to tell him that the doctor had entered the house, Yinzhen thought that Yuxi was not feeling well, Yuxi glanced at him, and said impatiently: "There are other people in this family, Lingge has been sick for a few days, do you know?" ”
