Hongli walked towards Hongyan, just a few steps away, but it seemed to be thousands of miles apart, maybe he shouldn't think so, as a son, how could he have such an unfilial mind, but his mother hurt Hongyan again and again, out of the so-called justice, for the so-called peace of the six palaces, hurt Hongyan who had no power to fight back. If it weren't for Concubine Shouqi today, what would he see when he came back? His mother, why did she become like this, from the first day she became the queen mother, she was no longer the same mother she used to be.

"It's okay, I'm back." Hongli walked in front of him and said, "If I have to leave you alone in the palace in the future, I will definitely explain before I go out, and this will never happen again." ”

Although today's incident is scary, she has no shame in her heart, and she is not afraid at all, but when the emperor suddenly said this, her eyes couldn't help but be hot, although she was not very lucky, but there were still so many people who cared about her well, rather than forcing people who didn't like her to change their minds, it was better to cherish the people who loved her.

"Did E-Niang do anything to you, I heard that the torture rod was passed on, did she beat you?" Hongli asked, and looked Hongyan up and down, for fear that she would cover up the scars.

"Don't you believe it? The emperor doesn't believe in that kind of thing? Hongyan asked.

The emperor frowned, with a little anger, and said solemnly: "You should be me, and you are just as confused? Asking such words is what makes me angry. He gently touched Hongyan's arm, still worried, "Did Huang Eniang really not touch you?" ”

Hongyan threw herself into his arms softly, sticking to his chest, Hongli immediately hugged her tightly, a heart settled down slightly, and Hongyan didn't say anything, after a while, Hongyan said: "The emperor went to see the concubine, the concubine has something to say to you." ”

"Okay, I'll go, and you can come too." Hongli took her hand.

"The concubine is going to prepare some food for you, the emperor has worked hard to ascend the heights, and he must not have eaten yet, in the final analysis, he is still running around for the concubine." Hongyan smiled softly, gently pushed the emperor towards the concubine's bedroom, and said, "The emperor will wait a minute, it will be fine soon." ”

Hongli didn't feel anything wrong at all, and went to see his grandmother after her, but Hongyan watched the emperor's back disappear in front of him, and he suddenly felt sad. I don't know when the next time we will hug each other like this, I don't know if she will return to the Forbidden City one day, maybe she will never come back, maybe the emperor will forget her when she returns.

Anyway, everyone said that sooner or later there would be that day, everyone said that once the emperor got her, it would not be fresh, compared to watching the emperor gradually fade that love, it is better to leave from now on, if there is no chance to see again, leave with this love, it is also a kind of consummation, if there is no today's affection when you say goodbye, because it is too long to forget, it is also human nature.

Hongyan is willing to leave the concubine and leave the Forbidden City.

However, such a decision, for Hongli, is like a bolt from the blue, grandmother wants to go to a clean place to recuperate, the emperor is duty-bound, but she wants to go with a red face, I don't know how many years, more importantly, grandmother said that she doesn't want to see the people in the palace again, whether it is to go to Yingtai to the Old Summer Palace, or to Chengde to leave the palace, go to that place, the emperor is not allowed to go again, just wait for the concubine to die, the emperor and no one in the harem are allowed to go there.

Concubine Shouqi had a smooth life, and she didn't want to be bothered by trivial matters, so she loved the emperor's grandmother, but she said without mercy: "For the sake of me raising the emperor, my last wish has been fulfilled." As for Hongyan, she is willing to go with me, not me forcing her, and the emperor should think about it, is it appropriate to leave her in this palace? Hurt again and again, it's better to separate, it's better to forget, there will be newcomers entering the palace, there will be children like by the queen mother entering the palace, why do you have to be red-faced? Even if she doesn't get into trouble, she is always the center of trouble, and you are the emperor, you can't oppose the entire harem for a woman, let alone your mother? ”

Hongli couldn't accept such an arrangement, but when he heard that Hongyan was willing to go with the concubine, his heart was like a wood, and he didn't even remember what it felt like to be distressed, he had too many women in his life, why was it Hongyan's turn, every step was so difficult.

"The grandson can't agree, and the imperial grandmother shouldn't leave, the grandson will move you into the Cining Palace, no one is allowed to disturb you, and no one is allowed to disturb Hongyan, it's good to be in the Cining Palace, don't go to such a far place." Hongli tried his best to keep it, but he couldn't get an answer that reassured him.

Concubine Shouqi looked at this child with a smile, although she knew when she took him with her that Kangxi Ye wanted to choose him Ama as the emperor, and she also guessed that the throne would be passed to this child in the future, and now that he has really become an emperor, she still thinks it is incredible, she is also the one who raised a generation of emperors.

In this life, the concubine sent away her husband and sisters, and guarded Yinzhen's life for her sister and Concubine De, and now her grandson is also a person who stands up to the sky, and her life should be over.

"After your imperial grandfather and imperial grandmother left, I lived alone for more than ten years." The concubine stretched out her hand, held the emperor and said, "In the last days, you should feel sorry for your grandmother, let Hongyan accompany me." ”

Hongli's heart was heavy and he didn't say a word. The concubine said again: "I did this, as if I was deliberately against the Queen Mother, as if I had to take a stand." Don't say that there is no such thing, even if there is, I hope you can stand by the side of the Queen Mother. Hongli, don't be too embarrassed by your mother, her life is not easy, but she is wholeheartedly for your good, she has seen too many ruthless in her life, Hongyan In her opinion, the meaning is completely different from your eyes, don't break her heart. ”

"But she didn't really think about her grandson, she pushed the queen to a desperate position, but she didn't realize it, she always thought it was for my good." Hongli shook his head, "It's not that grandchildren are unfilial. ”

"The days are still long, you have only been the emperor for a few years, and she has been the queen mother for a few years, do you think you have done a good job as an emperor? And why do you want to be perfect? The concubine asked Hongli with a smile, but said, "When you think you are a great emperor, there will be no such thing, Hongli, you have to sharpen." ”

At this time, the aroma of food wafted in, Hongyan should have prepared a meal, the concubine knew that the emperor was hard to ascend, and urged him to eat something before talking, Hongli was also anxious to see Hongyan, so he turned around and came out.

There were a few side dishes on the table, as well as a bowl of chicken noodle soup, Hongyan was sitting on the side tearing a shiny and tender chicken thigh, putting the torn tender meat on the noodles, seeing the emperor come out, he said with a smile: "The emperor is coming to eat, and the paste will be made below." Waiting for Hongli to sit down, she said again, "Your Majesty, don't think a bowl of noodles is simple and vulgar, today is the birthday of the concubine, can you enjoy your face and eat a bowl of longevity noodles?" ”

Hongli saw her smile gently, as if nothing had happened, he shook his head: "I know that today is your birthday, I have prepared a lot of surprises for you, and I want to make up for the damage I brought you last year, but ...... You're going to tell me now that you're going with the concubine? ”

"The emperor knows?"

"Are you willing, or do you have to be willing, should I go and beg the Imperial Grandmother not to take you away now, or should I beg you to stay?" Hongli asked.

Hongyan had to leave her seat and bend her knees, and said solemnly: "The concubine doesn't dare to respond to the emperor's request, the emperor, even if there is no today's matter, the concubine must fulfill the concubine's last wish." People have to know that when the concubine is the most helpless, if it wasn't for the concubine Niangniang to take it in, I don't know what else would happen at that time. In the eyes of the concubine, this is nothing less than a life-saving grace, even if the concubine wants to repay it with her life, she is willing. ”

"Then I will never see you again, and the Imperial Grandmother said that I and no one should bother me anymore." Hongli pulled Hongyan up and looked straight into her eyes, even if he saw the slightest reluctance, it was a little comforting.

However, Hongyan said, "Will the emperor come to pick me up?" Compared to the parting for a few years, at the end of the day, will the emperor come to pick me up? At this moment, the concubine willingly left the palace with the concubine, and she still hoped that one day you would take the concubine back. The emperor's heart, Hongyan is unwilling to spend his life treating each other. ”

"But ......" Hongli's mind was blank, he understood that it was not just today's events that caused all this, but today's events would lead to more trouble in the future, the mother was completely opposed to Hongyan, even if the queen stood behind her, the people in the entire harem would still look at the queen mother's face, Hongyan would be more excluded and oppressed, but he couldn't stay by her side all the time. He knew everything, but he couldn't bear it.

The emperor's hand suddenly loosened, turned around and walked towards the door, the bowl of longevity noodles on the table was still steaming, but the people who should enjoy it would not come back to eat, Hongyan could hear the movement outside getting farther and farther, and heard a "The emperor got up", and sat silently to the place where Fang Cai Hongli was sitting, to finish eating her own longevity noodles, today is her birthday.

The Double Ninth Festival dinner was suddenly canceled, all the palaces were idle, and the imperial dining room had to re-prepare meals and send them to various places, and naturally there were all kinds of news wandering around the six palaces, but no one knew that Concubine Shouqi was about to leave the palace with Wei Promise.

It was getting late, and the meals of Shoukang Palace were also delivered on time, and when the people around Concubine Yu came out to answer, they saw Hongyan standing under the eaves, all of them were embarrassed, they seemed to have heard something, even they felt sorry Wei agreed, but Hongyan didn't care anymore, everything happened, could it be that Concubine Yu would compensate?

And Concubine Shouqi is not in a bad mood, it seems that she is looking forward to leaving the Forbidden City, more and more energetic than a few days ago, and when she sees a few things that are in line with her heart for dinner, she will set up a small table on the side of the couch to serve her to eat, no one mentions the emperor and no one mentions the matter of leaving the palace, guessing how to cook these foods in the imperial dining room, there are talking and laughing, cherries come from outside the door, the little girl finally shows a little joy on her face, and says: "Master, Lord Wei is here." ”

Hongyan was stunned for a moment, only to realize that he was talking about his own Amma, but he didn't expect his father to come to the inner palace, and after getting the permission of the concubine, he went out and saw his father standing in front of the palace gate. ”

When Wei Qingtai heard about today's incident when he entered the palace, he was worried all the way, and when he saw that his daughter was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief and responded: "The emperor sent someone to let me come to see you, saying that today is your birthday. ”
