Fu Heng's tangled expression was just a moment of kung fu in Hongyan's eyes, and the emperor who was carrying a whole bundle of rock sugar gourds and running back happily was the man she wanted to see all her life. And the person in front of him, where is he like the emperor who is powerful in the Zhengda Guangming Palace, where is he like a forty-year-old man who has grandchildren, wearing a white background and blue edges, lining him to be extraordinarily young, and more importantly, I have never heard that the emperor will go to the street to buy things.

"Why did the emperor break out, how dangerous ......" Hongyan didn't want to say unlucky words, she was worried, and she couldn't suppress a smile on her face, and she clearly saw Fu Heng just now, so there must be countless guards around the emperor, and the palace concubines and concubines who like to pay private visits after the incident all know that he is not in the palace for a few days almost every month, and he is probably more familiar with everything in the capital than Hongyan once did.

Sure enough, Hongli proudly counted how he knew about the capital, and even the towns and villages around the capital, although he couldn't go to such a long road as the southern tour, but the emperor basically walked everywhere he could walk with his feet and on horseback, and he trusted the guards around him, and he knew how to ensure his safety in the streets and alleys of the market.

"Which one do you like?" Hongli smiled, pointing to the strings of hawthorn wrapped in rock sugar, the red fruit is crystal clear, as attractive as a gem, although the rock sugar exudes a sweet smell, thinking of the sourness of the hawthorn, it still makes people's teeth soft when they look at it, he smiled, "I can't eat it." ”

"The concubines can't eat so much, since they are going to Ruyin's house at night, they will bring some to the Fulongan brothers." Hongyan took a whole bundle from his hand, but it was so heavy that she couldn't carry it alone, and couldn't help but say, "The emperor is messing around, it's strange to buy so much at once, and bring it back." ”

"What you want, I will naturally give you the best." The Emperor said affectionately, "You have never asked me what I wanted. ”

Hongyan sneered: "That concubine can't ask for sugar gourds." ”

While talking, his eyes met the emperor's, and he saw the deep affection in Hongli Xing's eyes, and he didn't know what kind of heart this sugar gourd could arouse him, so he saw him put everything down, and suddenly hugged himself, and his gentle words were in his ears: "How good it would be if you could say everything to me as casually as you do now?" I know that if you have something to say to Ruyin but not to me, you must have encountered unpleasant things, and those unpleasant things must be because of me. ”

Hongyan's heart was hot, but she didn't understand why the emperor was suddenly like this, until she heard Hongli say: "Then Dai Jia's family is as beautiful as a fairy, and I won't care, not to mention that she is the person arranged by the queen mother." I happened to meet her talking to her on the side of the road that day, but I know that she was waiting there on purpose, how can she compare with us back then? ”

It turned out to be for the little Dai Jia clan, did the emperor know that he had met them? When it comes to that year, Hongyan understands that the emperor should remember the encounters in the Old Summer Palace again and again. At that time, Wei Hongyan was so simple that she felt incredible now, but she unknowingly broke into the most complicated world and could never get out again.

"Several times back then, I deliberately waited for you on the road, you know, it's completely different." Hongli said, "In my life, I haven't waited for a few people. ”

Hongyan felt that the emperor was holding him very hard, there was a lot of traffic outside the window, and even a noise of quarrels and scolding, but it seemed that only they existed with each other, and no one could disturb anything. The emperor said: "I said a lifetime of love words to the queen, and none of them were made up to coax her, but I still couldn't keep her." Hongyan, I won't say anything to coax you, every sentence is sincere. But I just have so many concubines, whether it is Dai Jia's family, no matter how many women, is it possible that with their existence, anything I say to you is not worthy of convincing, right? ”

Hongyan's eyes were slightly red, and she said softly: "The concubine is not to blame the emperor for being amorous, nor does she not believe what the emperor said, but these things have happened recently, and the concubine has realized the helplessness of the queen back then, and the emperor ...... If it weren't for Wei Hongyan, your An Yi would still be by your side now, and she would definitely be there. ”

Hongli frowned: "It's not your fault that it has nothing to do with you......"

Hongyan said with tears in her eyes: "It's not the concubine's fault, but it's indeed the concubine's fault." The concubine is afraid that she will also embark on the road of the queen's mother, that feeling is not that she can say it to Ruyin and not say it to you, it is a depression that Ruyin doesn't know where to start. The concubine can't let the second Wei Hongyan and then let the concubine go down that road, whether it's Dai Jia's family, or more women, your Majesty, if the concubine lets go one day, you can laugh it off. There will never be a shortage of companions around you, but the concubine still has to live well. ”

Hongli frowned, he seemed to understand Hongyan's words, but as if he didn't understand, stared at her eyes tightly, and said after a while: "In the end, it's all me, no matter how much Wei Hongyan is, if I don't move, how can I have everything now, but the fact is already like this, can I go back and do it again?" Hongyan, I know what you are suppressing in your heart, do you feel that the queen is gone, you no longer have to feel guilty about anyone, or even look at people's faces, but the more unscrupulously you enjoy your time with me, the more you feel guilty of self-blame? The queen is gone, but she binds us more tightly than when she was alive, isn't she? ”

Hongyan avoided the emperor's gaze, for more than three years, every time she indulged her feelings, she would think of the queen, and after every joy, she would think of the queen, and now seeing the pressure brought to her by Xiao Dai Jia's family, thinking that she might really lose everything in front of her, she understood the queen's hesitation back then. All the pride that the queen used to show off was just to hide the pain in her heart, she wasn't there to show to the red face, she just didn't want to make herself look so bad......

"The concubine thought that she had already passed the initial emotional moment, and the concubine thought that she was living more sensibly than anyone else, but it turned out that she was not." Hongyan smiled bitterly, "Is it reluctant to be glorious and rich, or is it a thousand rays of light?" The glory and wealth of the concubines are not afraid of losing, and the queen mother has never allowed the concubines to shine anywhere, in the final analysis, it turns out that the concubines still care about the emperor's heart. I can't stand it when I see that there are other women who may replace me. ”

"How can she replace you, she won't replace you, no one will replace you." Hongli said to Hongyan seriously, "You have never replaced the queen, no one can replace An Yi, and no one can replace you, what do I want to say, originally you are irrelevant, and there has never been a contradiction in my heart." ”

Hongyan said: "That's the emperor's heart, not the concubine's heart or the queen's heart, you can hold countless people in your heart, but the concubine and the queen's mother can only fit the emperor in their hearts." Whether we can replace each other or not, whether we will contradict each other or not, it doesn't matter at all, for us, I only hope that you have one person in your heart, and everyone is the same. So this kind of mood will continue to repeat, does the emperor have to say something about love every time? On the contrary, the concubine will digest and solve it by herself, but it will take a longer time, even if it is painful, it will be painful and numb. ”

Hongli's brows are still tightly locked, he has been regarded as the smartest emperor by Kangxi since he was a child, and later became a prince and an emperor, he has never experienced any ups and downs, conceited and clever, whether it is dealing with major affairs in the court, or trivial matters in the harem, Hongli feels that he is comprehensive, forty is not confused, why is he more and more confused?

Hongyan said frankly: "The emperor just said, I hope the concubine will say everything to you, and the concubine will also tell you frankly." The emperor doesn't have to give any explanation to his concubines for the sake of the newcomer or who he has his heart for in the future, it makes no sense. No matter how many reasons there are, no matter how helpless you are, you just have another woman, whether you are by your side or in your heart, for the concubine, nothing can be tolerated. But the concubine must be tolerated, because the concubine still wants to be by your side for a lifetime, so all the tolerance must be put into the heart, the concubine does not have the queen's natural nobility, and there is no pride in her bones, such heartache will be digested after a while. If the emperor really wants to do something for this, then when he still likes his concubines, take good care of his concubines, don't let the queen mother make things difficult for his concubines, and don't let those new women who come to your side bully the concubines. In this way, it is far more meaningful than a few words from the heart. ”

The emperor was stunned, but he didn't know what to say, and Hongyan retreated and blessed his body: "Your Majesty, you see, if you have to say all the words of the concubines, what you say is such a sad helplessness." ”

"But that's better than whitewashing." Hongli said, "I care too much about the whole face in this life, and I haven't heard a few words of truth in my life." If you listen to too many lies, will they come true? Lies are always lies......"

"Your Majesty?"

The emperor stepped forward emotionally and hugged Hongyan again, "I know, I will treat you well, but when I can't help but say what is in my heart to you, you should not dislike it, how can there be a man who does not coax a woman, and how can a man not coax his beloved woman." I have long said that I will no longer promise anything easily, but now I have forgotten it. ”

On the lively street, people come and go, no one knows that the emperor is talking to his beloved woman in the restaurant on the side of the road, Fu Heng and the guards in ordinary clothes surround the restaurant so that no one can approach, and when passers-by walk by, they can also feel the solemn atmosphere exuded from them.

But this kind of breath does not affect the warmth of the house at all, the cold wind blows, raising dust, and the people on the road squint their eyes and shrink their necks, but Fu Heng stands there majestically, what he is guarding is not the king of a country, but the person who is guarding at this moment is only the person in his heart.

What he hates the most is to hang out with the emperor, only today, he is willing.
