Xuan Ye nodded silently, but saw Lan Qi step forward and open the lid, he stood behind her and said, "The crown princess often brings some soup, which she makes in the kitchen by herself, but I can't eat anything she does." ”

Lan Qi knew that the emperor was cautious in his diet, and the concubines in the palace also loved to use this trick to invite pets, and Concubine Yi did this in the past, but presumably even the crown princess understood that in fact, the emperor would not use the food sent from other places casually, for them, it was just to show the emperor to the world their reverence for the emperor.

"Every time the crown princess stays in the kitchen to do something for me or the prince, she always silently burns some letters and paper in the stove, and if those things are left behind is sin, then what is cooked with sin, do you think I will eat it?" Xuan Ye smiled coldly and disdainfully, stepped forward and took Lan Qi's hand and said, "Let's go and rest, your hands are still so cold on a May day, how bad should your qi and blood be?" ”

The two sat under the window, as if the rain was gradually subsiding, and the sound of the rain on the ground was no longer so noisy, Xuan Ye warmed her hand in the palm of her hand, and sighed with emotion: "It's for Honghui, my heart is still cold, right?" I don't urge you to cheer up quickly, I'm already satisfied with the way you look now. ”

Lan Qi bowed: "The concubine will get better soon." Although the grandson is a sweetheart, there are not many days to see in a year, and across a palace wall, he will inevitably be emotionally inferior to the children he brought before. This time, the concubine was sad that Honghui was gone, and she felt even more sorry for Yinzhen and Yuxi, thinking about how painful the emperor and the concubine were back then, how painful they were. ”

Xuan Ye frowned: "I found that several eunuchs and guards in the palace are missing, and I am following the traces to check outside the palace, once I find out their whereabouts, I can find out who is behind the scenes." You know, Shun Anyan bumped into Bafujin, although she was the most suspicious, but as long as she denied it vigorously, I couldn't convict her. ”

Lan Qi asked nervously, "The emperor is still staring at the eighth elder brother?" ”

Xuan Ye avoided Lan Qi's gaze, Lan Qi's words that night surprised him, this time Xuan Ye was determined not to let anyone go, but Lan Qi persuaded himself not to do too much, and the two of them actually reversed their consistent positions. He said coldly: "She killed our grandson. ”

"The concubine can't wait to crush her bones and scatter ashes." Lan Qi said, "But the emperor, once you fulfill your concubines, you should be considered to fulfill the selfishness of your concubines, okay?" ”

"Selfishness?"

"The crown princess brought you soup to prove to the world that the relationship between you and the crown prince and her has not broken down, and you took the crown princess down for interrogation for one earring, what a great shame for her?" Lan Qi got up from her seat and stood in front of Xuan Ye, "The concubine hates it very much, but think about it again, even if the eighth elder brother is an accomplice to the mastermind Bafujin, their original purpose will definitely not be to kill Honghui, and the slave below said that Honghui ran to Changchun Palace by hiding and seeking, and it should be that this kid ran into something and was killed by mistake." ”

Xuan Ye sneered: "Then I, do you want to appease them for an unintentional mistake?" ”

"For Yinzhen's children, the emperor made a big move, making Yuqing Palace restless, and then he had to bring the Eighth Elder Brother's family to justice, yes, they deserve to die if they kill people." Lan Qi gritted her teeth with hatred, but quickly calmed down, "Has the emperor thought about what the situation will be in the royal family after this storm?" The eighth elder brother will die or be imprisoned, how will the courtiers treat you and Yinzhen, and how should other elder brothers treat you and Yinzhen, although all this should happen, but what the emperor wants is not like this. ”

Xuan Ye frowned and looked at Lan Qi incredulously: "What are you thinking?" ”

Lan Qi replied calmly: "The concubine doesn't want the emperor to start this game of chess all over again, and you have to rearrange the chess game, you have to work too hard." I don't want Yinzhen to become the target of the public, and I don't want to cause chaos in the world for the sake of his children. The concubine can endure the pain of Yinzuo, and he should also endure the pain of losing Honghui, have you seen Yuxi's performance? Do you see the dignity and dignity that Yuxi is working hard to support for Yinzhen, the child knows it very well in his heart. ”

Xuan Ye said in a deep voice: "I obviously rejected you that night, I no longer need to scruple, let alone tolerate adultery. ”

Lan Qi said: "So the concubine comes to plead again, the eighth elder brother is naturally the emperor to face it yourself, can you hand over Fujin to the concubine?" If she really killed Honghui, or she instructed someone to kill her, the concubine would not let her live in peace. ”

Xuan Ye saw that Lan Qi had murderous aura in her eyes, in fact, everything she was worried about, Xuan Ye understood it in his heart, but he felt aggrieved, why did he have to endure the provocation of the minister in the past, and now he has to endure his son's presumptuousness, this emperor, Lao Tzu, is he too aggrieved?

But think about it calmly, the road of the emperor is to be able to endure what others can't bear, he is rich in the world to guide the country, but there is only one dragon chair, he is sitting alone at the highest place, more than 40 years, is there less of what he endures? He knows very well that what he is carrying is the royal inheritance of Jiangshan Sheji, and it has never been his personal grievances and hatreds, which is the emperor's helplessness and responsibility.

"Suo Etu is dead, Mingzhu is still breathing, and Ao Bai was defeated by your fist as early as that year." Lan Qi had a majestic momentum in her eyes, and calmly faced the emperor, "Honghui's death, the concubine was in pain, but at this moment, the concubine understood your helplessness and pain back then." If it is really the fault of the eighth elder brother and the eight blessings, the fate of Suo Etu Pearl today must also be their future, people always have to pay the price for the sins they have committed, sooner or later, if it still has an effect on this royal family, the emperor, let them stay. ”

Xuan Ye's breath was heavy: "What should I do with you?" ”

Lan Qi was steady, and Xuan Ye agreed.

Xuan Ye said again: "Can you bear it, can I bear it, can Yinzhen bear it?" ”

Lan Qi's eyes were firm, and he bowed his head and said: "If he can't bear it, the concubine has said that in the future, please ask the emperor to choose another talent." ”

Xuan Ye squinted at her and asked puzzledly: "If others look at this matter, they will think that you are planning everything for his future, but when you look back, you say to me, choose another meritocracy, swallow such a big grievance, and still can't promise him a future?" ”

Lan Qi said without hesitation: "The concubine is thinking about cultivating a better future with you, not necessarily her own children, what you and the concubine promised is the future of the Qing Dynasty, not the future of Yinzhen." This high-sounding sound sounds very domineering, maybe many people will only talk about it, and they won't really do it, and the concubine doesn't dare to think so big, the concubine just thinks that if my son can't take on the big responsibility, don't push him up. ”

The room was silent in vain, the rain outside the window stopped, the whole palace was quiet, Xuan Ye stretched out his hand and shook Lan Qi, smiling peacefully, "In my life, I'm afraid I can't be called a lonely widow." ”

Lan Qi smiled calmly: "Naturally, it can't." ”

When the sedan chair of Yonghe Palace left the Qianqing Palace, the sun in the sky had fallen from the gap in the clouds, sprinkled to the world like a waterfall, and the dark clouds seemed to be the light of hope. ”

Staying in front of her house to stop, when Lan Qi got off the sedan chair, Concubine Liang came from the front, and now she is in the concubine position, and there are many more palace maids and eunuchs serving around her than before, but Lan Qi looks at it, she seems to be in a completely different world from the people behind her.

"I have something to say to you." Concubine Liang has changed the habit of opening and closing her mouth as a "concubine".

"Let's go inside." Lan Qi responded, took Huanchun's hand and walked into the door, but listened to Concubine Liang's instructions, "You go back to Yanxi Palace, there is no shortage of people in Yonghe Palace, don't have so many people to follow." ”

Lan Qi turned around and looked, and Huan Chun said on the side: "Slave maid for a while, let's step back too." ”

Outside the palace, after the turmoil of the Sibeile Mansion could not find Fujin, it was calm again, and the people were careful not to make a little noise when moving the utensils, for fear of quieting down Sifujin after the noise. But the house leak happened to rain overnight, and Yuxi had just fallen asleep from exhaustion in Yinzhen's arms, and the minions below came to report that Hongyun's little brother was not good.

Yinzhen was very helpless, but the heartache of losing Honghui had made him numb, although he didn't want to lose Hongyun, but he didn't know how to express his heartache, when he came to Xiyuan, the cold and silent atmosphere made people shudder. Fang Fujin lay on the side of the bed and cried incessantly, and when he saw his husband, he said: "The doctor said that the child has only one breath left." ”

Hongyun's high fever lasted for three whole days, even a strong adult can't withstand such torture, not to mention that the child has been weak for a long time, Yinzhen held the child in his arms, Hongyun has no reaction to the world, as the imperial doctor said, but just hanging his last breath.

Fang Fujin is haggard, he can't afford to lose his previous child, Hongyun has been raised for so long, and no one is willing to change it, Fang Fujin can't take care of the newly-born Hongshi at the moment, and he stays by Hongyun's side every day, and now he is on the verge of collapse. But she never thought that her husband would say ruthless words at such a time.

"Hongshi is your son after all, it's the same wherever you raise it, Hongyun is afraid that it won't last long, and after Hongyun's business is done, take Hongshi to the main courtyard and let him be raised nearby." Yin Zhen looked at Li Shi cruelly, "I know that saying these words will make you hate me, but you still have Nian Tong and Hongshi, and she has nothing left of Fujin." ”

Fang Fujin looked at Yinzhen in a daze, and only after a while did he hold back a sentence: "The concubine body can give birth and raise, is it the concubine's fault?" ”

Yinzhen knows that he has no position, and he understands the cruelty and ruthlessness of the Li family, but his heart is all on Yuxi, and his heart is originally biased.

Li Shi actually bowed to her husband, crying and begging: "Lord Belle, please don't take away my child, please keep Hongshi by my side." ”
