Chapter 518: Two Empresses
readx;
Ruan Tianhao was buried in Xiaoyao Valley with Chu Zhexun's acquiescence, and everything was handled by the night dust. www.biquge.info The day before the funeral, Yechen persuaded Ruan Zhong to participate, not for anything else, but he didn't want his father to regret that day. Qing Ran is pregnant and should not participate in such an occasion, Jiang Shi is not Ruan Tianhao's biological mother, so she simply accompanies Qing Ran. What surprised was Manqi's decision!
"Qingran, I'll leave early tomorrow morning. Thank you so much for taking care of you these days. On the eve of the funeral, Manqi found Qingran to say goodbye.
Qingran looked at her in surprise: "Why do you have to leave suddenly? Is it because of tomorrow?"
Manqi hung her head and didn't speak.
Qing Ran was a little clear: "If it's because of Ruan Tianhao, it's not necessary." If you can't get over it tomorrow, why don't you stay with me?"
Manqi raised her head, looked at her, and shook her head firmly: "It's not all for him. I have been away from my father for some time, and I don't know how he is now! When I entered the palace a while ago, the queen mother had promised me that she would wait for the emperor to not be so busy, so she would treat my father. So when I went back this time, I also picked up my father back to Beijing. ”
"It's okay, father and daughter always have to be together to have a care. Qingran bowed his head slowly, "It's just that you left so suddenly, we didn't have any preparations." Otherwise, I'll send Bingyan to escort you back, and then I'll pick up King Pingnan and come to Xiaoyao Valley together, right?"
In the past six months, Moxian Pavilion is no longer as mysterious as in the past, and it has gradually been understood by people, and this time Chu Zhexun ascended the throne, which has resolved the misunderstanding between Moxian Pavilion and the imperial court, so there is no need to hide from everyone.
Manqi smiled lightly: "Qingran, you and I are so familiar, I am naturally not polite to you." If you say that you will send the ice goose to me, I will not refuse. But when we go to Beijing, we don't have to bother the ice geese. What's more, my father should naturally go back to Pingnan Wangfu when he comes back, why do you keep bothering you. ”
Qingran knew that after experiencing Ruan Tianhao, Manqi had matured a lot, and she naturally thought about the problem a lot more clearly. What's more, she has no contact with Ruan Tianhao, and she probably doesn't want to have too much to do with Ruan Fu. Living in Xiaoyao Valley, it is inevitable that you will always meet your father and mother, and Yu Qingyan said that it may be somewhat embarrassing. Thinking like this, she stopped insisting.
Qingran nodded: "Then let's decide what happens after I come back." It's just, when I give birth, why don't you come back?"
Manqi bowed her head happily: "This is natural, after you give birth, I will definitely come back to see you." ”
Qing Ran smiled at this time, thought about it, and asked with a little hesitation: "Then you really won't send Tianhao on his last trip tomorrow?"
"Nope. Manqi shook her head, "In my heart, I have already bid farewell to him." Let my father and eldest brother send him tomorrow. After a pause, she said with a little bitterness, "Besides, Tianhao will never say anything, probably because he doesn't want to have anything to do with me anymore." ”
"Manqi ......" Qingran looked at her reddish eyes, bit her lower lip lightly, and for a moment wanted to tell the truth desperately, but finally held back.
Seeing that she wanted to speak and stopped, Manqi thought that she wanted to say something to comfort, so she hurriedly waved her hand: "Don't say anything, I know it in my heart." ”
That night, when Qingran told Yechen the news that Manqi was leaving, Yechen had a look that he had already guessed: "She can do this, Xu really let go." That's fine, only by completely letting go of Tianhao can she live a better life!"
Qingran pondered for a long time, suddenly stretched out his arm, hugged Ye Chen, and said with emotion: "Ye Chen, how fortunate I am, the person I met in this life is you! ”
"You are the most beautiful and pure woman I have ever seen, why bother to be presumptuous?" Ye Chen stared affectionately, "Do you know how fortunate I am, in the past, you disguised yourself with cold arrogance in order to leave me the best you!"
Qingran smiled faintly: "You can always say these nice words to make me happy." ”
"What's nice to say?" "Night Dust snapped, "just tell the truth." ”
The next morning, as soon as it was dawn, Manqi got up, cleaned up briefly, and left the house reluctantly. Bing Yan waited by the door, saw her come out, and said respectfully: "County Lord, the carriage is ready, let's go." ”
Manqi nodded and left after her. What she doesn't like the most is the parting scene, so she has already made three chapters with Qingran yesterday, no matter what, there is no need to send each other today.
Qingran is naturally a person who keeps his promise, although he doesn't know how to send her off, he also gets up early in the morning and watches her leave in the dark.
There was still a hint of coolness in the air in the early morning, and Yechen carefully put on her coat and whispered in her ear: "Manqi has left, let's go back too." It's still a little cold in the morning and evening, so you don't have to catch a cold. ”
"Good. I'll go back and sleep for a while, and you should go about your business. Qingran nodded obediently.
At this point, Ruan Tianhao's matter has finally settled. Chu Zhexun can be regarded as avenging Ji Shuxuan with his own hands. On the day of Ruan Tianhao's burial, Chu Zhexun brought a pot of wine and went to the imperial mausoleum alone......
"Your Majesty, I'm here. Chu Zhexun withdrew everyone, sat alone on the edge of Ji Shuxuan's mausoleum, and said softly. Even now he is the emperor, even if the two are brothers, he is still more accustomed to calling Ji Shuxuan "the emperor". Only then can he assume that everything is still the same as before, unchanged.
Chu Zhexun filled the two small wine cups in front of him, picked up one of them himself, and drank it all. The other was respectfully sprinkled outside Ji Shuxuan's mausoleum. He sat there quietly, chattering with Ji Shuxuan:
"Your Majesty, Ruan Tianhao is dead, and your revenge has finally been avenged. You know, before this, I didn't dare to come to see you, because I was afraid that you would complain that I was useless. Now I can finally come to see you and talk to you in the open.
Your Majesty, you probably don't know yet, but in fact, the two of us ...... Our father and mother are also well-intentioned, and although we have not grown up in the name of brothers since childhood, we have grown up together in the name of master and servant.
Now the concubine has found out her father's edict and supported me as the emperor. But this throne makes me tremble and walk on thin ice! My father and you are such diligent and capable people, and I am careful every day, lest I do not do well and ruin the foundation you have created.
Brother, if you really know from the spring, please bless me and guard the rivers and mountains of the Dalang Dynasty......"
Chu Zhexun sat there for more than an hour, chattering and drinking, until he finished what he said in his heart. Speaking of the back, he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes. The memories under this situation are always embarrassing......
After returning to the palace, Chu Zhexun rarely did not deal with government affairs, and went back to Fengluan Hall directly. Su Nuoyu has always been a subtle and delicate mind, and when he looks like that, he has vaguely guessed something. She just stayed by her side gently and considerately, and didn't say much.
Chu Zhexun looked at her in surprise: "Why don't I see you asking me what I did today, how can I come back at this hour?"
Su Nuo said: "You are now the king of a country, and you are naturally much more busy and troublesome than before. If you want to speak, you will naturally say, I just need to be by your side and listen quietly when you want to speak. ”
Chu Zhexun was moved by her words, shook her hand, and said, "I'm going to see the emperor." Today, Ruan Tianhao is buried, and I can be regarded as avenging him. ”
Su Nuoyu was at ease, no wonder he looked a little lonely, it turned out that he really went to visit Ji Shuxuan.
Chu Zhexun took Su Nuoyu's hand and walked out, reminiscing to tell her about the interesting things that happened to him and Ji Shuxuan in the past. Su Nuo couldn't help but laugh when he heard it, and Chu Zhexun's mood was also soothed a lot in such a cheerful atmosphere.
When he first ascended to the throne, Chu Zhexun was only rusty with political affairs for a few days, and he quickly got started and handled it handy. It's just that some things, even if you are prepared, when they happen, still make people feel blocked.
After ascending the throne for more than a month, there were voices in the court and the opposition discussing the identity of the Sunuo language, and even more vows pointed out that the Su Nuo language was the mysterious queen of the period of the former emperor Ji Shuxuan! As soon as this remark came out, it was tantamount to stirring up a thousand waves with one stone, and attracted a lot of discussion among the ministers.
As we all know, Chu Zhexun and Ji Shuxuan are brothers of the same mother, and they are both sons of the former emperor Ji Wende. Brother to brother, this is a good story. But if the brothers share a queen for the king, it is inevitable that some people will make irresponsible remarks.
Originally, there were people with good deeds among the ministers, and they wanted to install their own people in the palace as concubines, and they didn't want Chu Zhexun to do what he did on the day he ascended the throne, but everyone's thoughts were gone. And now as soon as such rumors came out, those people had a lively mentality and fanned the flames, wanting to make the emperor back down so as to achieve the goal of calming things down.
The gossip spread lively, Chu Zhexun deliberately concealed Su Nuoyu and didn't bother her, but he still couldn't hide it after all. However, this matter can be regarded as touching his rebellion, and Chu Zhexun intends to use this incident to clean up the good deeds in the court! Of course, the top priority is to find a way to put an end to this matter, so as not to bring harm to Nuoyu.
For several days, Chu Zhexun was worried about this matter.
After the morning of this day, Tian Yuan came to Chu Zhexun's side and whispered: "Your Majesty, the queen mother is here early in the morning." The slave looks at her like that, as if she has something important to say to you. ”
"Oh, what did she say?" asked Chu Zhexun as he walked.
Tian Yuan shook his head: "Niangniang didn't say anything, just said that she was waiting for you." But," he paused, thought for a moment, and guessed, "There have been a lot of remarks about the identity of the mother in the DPRK and China these days, and I guess I have heard the wind in my ears." ”
Chu Zhexun paused slightly, glanced at him, Tian Yuan hurriedly lowered his head. Retracting his gaze, Chu Zhexun said, "Okay, I know." ”
I didn't plan to keep this matter from her, but I didn't want her to be upset when she found out. Nuoyu suffered a lot of grievances with him, and also suffered a lot, now that he is the son of heaven, if he can't protect her thoroughly, wouldn't he be the emperor in vain?
