Chapter 137 - Unexpected "Joy"
When An Wuji was pestering Rong Qian in the inner courtyard of the teahouse, Feng Changqing was in the palace.
The chief of the seal has cleared the official position of leading the military and the court, and he is also the leader of the Ouchi guard president, and he is responsible for the safety of the entire palace, so he often needs to stay in the palace and accompany the king.
Yan Rin can be trusted, and there are very few people who are willing to put down the shelf and say something from their hearts. Except for Shi Jingyuan, that is, Feng Changqing.
Today, it is rare that there is no difficult national politics, and Yan Rin has already completed the government affairs that should be handled and the excerpts that should be approved. Seeing that it was still early, he beckoned Feng Changqing to go with him and walked and chatted in the palace.
The two of them strolled all the way from the imperial study to the imperial garden, and the eunuchs and attendants followed far behind, not daring to approach.
At first, the conversation between the two was very casual and relaxed. The weather is nice, the sun is bright, the sky is very high, and the breeze is refreshing. Yan Rin and Feng Changqing have been getting smoother and smoother in state affairs, and when they talk about the livelihood of the people in the market, they have a smile on their faces.
Seeing that Yan Rin was in a good mood, Feng Changqing smiled and echoed a few words, and then in an extremely peaceful tone, he tactfully expressed some dissatisfaction with Yan Rin, the emperor's behavior of occasionally going out of the palace for private visits and mixing in the market.
Yan Rin didn't dare to talk about this kind of admonition, laughed dryly, then changed the topic, and went straight to talk about the shortcomings of the family, talking about the life in the palace, the exchanges between the clansmen, the harmony between the queen and the palace concubines, and then asked about Feng Changqing's family affairs.
The emperor avoided answering, and Feng Changqing couldn't chase after him, so he had to muffle his head and respond. Well, I'm fine, my family is also very good, of course my wife is also very good, and my son's civil and military studies are currently not bad. What, the emperor wants to reward them with a background, well, Saint En Tailong, it's not good for the children, let's let them go through the civil and military examinations, and be born on the right path!
Yan Rin smiled: "You are too stubborn." By virtue of your merits, and by the merits of generations. It is a big deal to grace the two sons. ”
Feng Changqing lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and said respectfully: "The courtiers are still young and need to be tempered, and the emperor's grace is too heavy, which may promote his arrogance, and also make the world look forward to the door of entering, which is probably not a great luck." ”
Yan Rin sighed and shook his head, and walked into the imperial garden: "You and Jingyuan are the same. I will treat you a little thicker, and I will do everything possible to push them away. I also know that you are very self-disciplined and have your own hard work, but I am just ......"
He shook his head and smiled, a plain smile that was a little lonely.
I just want to be as good as possible to the people around me, and I want to do as much as possible for the people who really treat me well.
He looked at the beautiful scenery of the Imperial Garden with a somewhat gloomy expression, the flowers were brilliant and bright, and the small bridge was flowing water. Clear streams and springs, rare and exotic beasts, mythical birds and strange stones. If Xu Chunguang is really picturesque......
But where is the person he most longed to be with him to see such a beautiful scenery side by side?
Many people and things are always around, so they don't feel anything. Only when you lose it can you understand how precious everything you once had.
"I just don't want to regret my loss. I just hope that when I can have it, I will cherish it. ”
Feng Changqing began to sweat on his forehead. He obviously knew what Yan Rin was thinking, but where did he dare to expose it, so he had to deliberately say: "Your Majesty, rest assured, Weichen and Shi Shizi will follow Your Majesty for the rest of their lives." Unless His Majesty thinks that we are useless and doesn't want us anymore, otherwise, how can we be willing to leave. ”
Yan Rin was silent, and Feng Changqing involuntarily lowered his head, not daring to answer.
Yan Rin's voice was a little fluctuating: "Changqing, do you remember how long it has been since he left?" ”
Feng Changqing replied: "It's been more than two years." ”
"Two years, five months, twenty-nine days, and seven and a half hours......
Yan Rin smiled lightly: "It's been so long." I sent people to search for the world, and all kinds of news have been innumerable. None of them stood up to further search. In fact, as early as when he left, I should have understood that since he was a man like him, since he had decided to drift into seclusion, I was using all my power to find him. ”
He had to turn his head to look at Feng Changqing, whose head was drooping lower and lower behind him, and his voice was almost sad: "I will never find him, and I will never see him again, right?" ”
Under the agitation of the mood, he just hung his head and did not dare to speak. I can't tell if it's sadness, guilt, insecurity, or remorse.
He came to Yan Rin many years ago, watching this young man grow up, mature, struggle, learn, and see how he worked hard and how self-sustaining, and finally got to where he is today. He has a very deep affection for Yan Rin. On the one hand, it is the pure loyalty of the courtiers to the monarch, and on the other hand, there is also the love and care of the elders for the younger generations.
For so long, although Yan Rin rarely said it, but his remorse, his thoughts about Rong Qian, and the pain he secretly endured, Feng Changqing saw it all in his eyes. However, he knew where Rong Qian was, but he couldn't explain it to Yan Rin, but instead pretended to be nothing, and his own mood was definitely not relaxed.
Although, he has been trying hard to convince himself that concealing Rong Qian's affairs is not only for Rong Qian's request, but also for Yan Rin's good. After all, with Rong Qian's status merits, if he returns to the imperial court, it may not be a good thing for the stability of the country and the balance of the court situation.
However, watching Yan Rin pretend to be nothing, handle state affairs correctly in the court, get along happily with his wife in the harem, watch him suffer alone and alone, regret and pain day and night, and can't get a chance to redeem and atone for his sins, no one can confide, no one can share, Feng Changqing will also be shaken, and he will doubt-
In this way, is it really good for Yan Rin?
Hearing Yan Rin's almost desperate voice at this moment, this martial artist, who had been honest and loyal all his life, was almost crushed by the uneasiness in his heart, and he was almost impulsive enough to explain the truth to Yan Rin desperately.
At this moment, the chief eunuch beside Yan Rin suddenly trotted forward from behind, and when he got closer, he bowed and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the slave has just received the news, the queen is unwell, and she has eaten very little in recent days, so she has summoned the imperial doctor to see it." ”
Yan Rin was stunned. Said anxiously: "It's been a few days, why hasn't anyone talked to me?" How can you delay calling the imperial doctor until now? ”
"The queen has always been virtuous, and this way is only one
uncomfortable, so I didn't want to alarm Your Majesty, and I only said that it would be good for two days. This time, when I went to ask for peace early in the morning, I heard the palace people talk about this matter, so I persuaded the queen to summon the imperial doctor for treatment. The queen originally told not to make a statement, but the little eunuch of Ganquan Palace was clever, and he still came over to pass a message. ”
Yan Rin frowned and smiled bitterly. This Lechang. Always like this, he never wants to "bother" him with anything.
He shook his head and waved his hand: "Drive Ganquan Palace." ”
There was a fork in this matter, Yan Rin had no intention of sighing about Rong Qian's matter for the time being, Feng Changqing secretly let out a sigh, listening to the queen's poor health, he didn't dare to show a relaxed look, he only followed Yan Rin quickly and said: "The queen is virtuous and virtuous, and she thinks about Your Majesty everywhere." It is the blessing of the country that refuses to disturb Your Majesty in everything. ”
Yan Rin just smiled bitterly. Suffering has always made people grow, poor Lechang, who was not yet fourteen years old when he came from the Qin State, became a parent, and did not enjoy any blessings. first heard the news of her mother's death, and then watched her husband take concubines one after another. In the past year and a half of the mother's career, the world has seen the infinite scenery, and she ......
How hard does an emperor like him have to work? Is it possible to make the people around you happy?
After all, Lechang is not yet sixteen years old, and she can enjoy family fun in front of her parents' knees, but she went to another country. Eternal relatives, come and serve him.
Royal couples, in the end, are not as strong as the love of folk couples, and if there is anything, two people can discuss it. When you become a queen, even if you are sick, you must be careful not to publicize it and not to tell your husband.
Such a queen, no matter how virtuous she is, how can she be happy and happy.
Yan Rin had just arrived outside the Ganquan Palace. From afar, I saw two imperial doctors coming out of the palace. They had a large group of people here, and they were very conspicuous, and the two imperial doctors hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to salute.
Yan Rin knew that the two of them must be diagnosing Lechang's pulse, so he immediately asked, "What's wrong with the queen's body?" ”
The two imperial doctors kowtowed together, with a smile on their faces: "The emperor is overjoyed, the queen is not sick, but happy." ”
Yan Rin's face was extremely subtle when she heard this. He was stunned for a moment before he said, "Are you sure?" ”
The two of them said in unison: "Both of us have taken turns to diagnose the pulse, and it is absolutely correct. ”
At this time, Feng Changqing and Manager Wang had already smiled at the same time and said hello to Yan Rin. Behind them, the eunuchs and palace maids also knelt on the ground. It's a great joy to say it.
No matter how young the emperor is, he has no heir, and he is still a problem for the important ministers of the court. Yan Rin's knees are still weak, now that someone in the harem is pregnant, she is still the queen, this child has not yet been born, and it is destined to be a very noble fate. The queen is pregnant with the emperor's first child, which is a great joy in the palace, the court, and the country!
Everyone was overjoyed, and it was not only their duty to congratulate them in succession, but also their heartfelt joy.
Yan Rin thought that he was still young, and he probably didn't think that he was going to be a father all of a sudden, but he was stunned for a while before he realized that he was happy, and then he slowly smiled. He accepted everyone's congratulations with a smile, and instructed the king to pass on this happy event to the harem, and asked Feng Changqing to inform the court of this important event.
The queen is pregnant, which is both a family affair and a state affair, not to mention that this is the emperor's first child. Vows to celebrate the National Day. In the celebration of the middle of the court, the officials turned to Yan Rin to congratulate him, and the concubines and concubines in the palace, as well as the wives of the high-ranking officials' families, had to prepare gifts for the queen to congratulate him. The tedious twists and turns of this are too many to count for a while.
After Feng Changqing and Chief Manager Wang nodded and received the order, they also went their separate ways.
Yan Rin then instructed the imperial physician to select the most experienced people to work together to diagnose the queen's pulse and protect the fetus on time, and ordered the imperial dining room to pay attention to the queen's diet, and then ordered the personal eunuch next to him to prepare rewards, and then strode into Ganquan Palace with a smile.
There was also a cheer in Ganquan Palace, and the palace maids and eunuchs all saluted and congratulated the queen one by one. Concubine Ming, who happened to be in Ganquan Palace, was also overjoyed, and pulled Lechang to say congratulations.
On the contrary, it was Lechang himself, since he heard that the doctor said that he was pregnant, he had been stunned, looking confused, and he didn't see much joy.
Fortunately, no one could think of any reason why she should not be happy about her pregnancy. It's just that she is still young, so she can't adapt to the fact that she suddenly became a mother, and she is in a foreign country and has no family to rely on for support, so she is a little panicked. So they comforted her softly, telling her that pregnancy was a great joy, and with so many people in the palace to take care of her, there was no need to worry about being afraid.
Yan Rin entered at the right time, and everyone in the palace bowed down one after another, and everyone was happy.
Yan Rin only smiled and nodded in response, smiled and said that everyone has a reward, walked to Lechang's side, saw her expression, frowned slightly, and waved her hand.
Everyone should only have such a big happy event, the husband and wife have private words to talk about, to celebrate and make love in private, and everyone has retreated.
When there were no more idlers around, Yan Rin smiled and took Le Chang's hand and sat down: "What's the matter, I'm stunned, I don't see you smiling at such a happy event?" ”
Le Chang looked up at him in a daze, and tears suddenly fell from his eyes.
Yan Rin was startled and lost her voice: "What's the matter, which one made you wronged?" ”
Le Chang lowered his head, and his voice was almost inaudible: "The concubine is useless, she can't share the emperor's worries, but it will add more trouble to the emperor." ”
Yan Rin was puzzled: "What are you talking about, why can't I understand?" ”
Lechang shook his head sadly: "The emperor doesn't have to lie to me. This child ......" she unconsciously reached out to stroke her belly "This child is not what the emperor is looking forward to now, but ......"
She suddenly knelt down on her knees: "But, since he is here, he is the emperor's flesh and blood." The concubine begged the emperor to let the concubine give birth to him. ”
She burst into tears, raised her head and begged: "Your Majesty, maybe...... Perhaps, he is not a prince, but a princess. If he is a princess, then ...... There are no worries left. ”
