Xuanyuan Qing propped his hands on the bookcase, leaned down, a faint smile appeared on his face, and said, "Brother? Don't think that since I was a child, I don't know what you and are saying about me behind their backs. It seems that they are all harmonious and harmonious with him on the face, but they don't know that they wish he was unlucky, and they wish that his mother would lose her glory, so that their mother would take the throne: "Tell you, it is imperative for me to enter Beijing this time, even if I don't pretend to be like this, I also have a way to ascend to the throne." ”

An Wang sat on the chair and did not move.

Everyone has their own life, it seems that his persuasion will not work at all, sighed, he doesn't want to talk to Xuanyuan Qing anymore, and looks down at the folds on the bookcase.

Don't want to deal with him anymore, do you think he can't get to that high position? Xuanyuan Qing straightened his waist and closed his eyes gently, as if he was using that short time to calm the anger that poured out of his heart because of King An, and in an instant, he opened his eyes and said word for word: "You look down on me, don't you?" Or do you think that fool will appear at the throne ceremony two days later and prevent me from succeeding to the throne? ”

"Tell you, that's impossible!"

"When I'm done, please go out."

King An looked up at him and said lightly.

"It's you who should be out now." Seeing that King An looked out of the door, ready to call the servants in, Xuanyuan said: "You don't have to think in vain, the minions guarding the door, the guards of the Royal Forest Army, and the surrounding secret guards have all been sent aside by me, His Royal Highness the Prince." His voice did not have the slightest wave, and his face became unusually calm, as if he was only stating a fact, and as if he was once again declaring how successful he was in pretending to be Xuanyuan Mo.

King An couldn't help but tremble and said, "What do you want?" ”

"I want you to get out of the study, because this is not the place for you to be lame! Did you hear that? ”

Lame person? How long had he not heard these two pinprick-like words?

King An felt a pain in his heart, but the expression on his face was still indifferent, he looked at Xuanyuan Qing, and only felt that this younger brother was so pitiful, so pathetic. Did he think that humiliating him with words would force him to forget his current duty and leave the imperial study? If he didn't get it, he went to great lengths to pretend to be someone else, and he felt good about himself, and he would be able to climb the chair in two days?

"I'm not leaving, I have my duty."

Gathering his thoughts, he replied to Xuanyuan Qing lightly.

"Huh! Is the eldest brother going against me? Xuanyuan Qing stared at King An, and an extremely familiar and incomparably unfamiliar sneer appeared on his face: "The enthronement ceremony in two days, I am imperative, and no one can stop me." Over the years, it has been inconvenient for you to walk with a limp, and you have been looked down upon everywhere, so it is better to continue to lie on the couch for a while. As he spoke, he walked behind the bookcase, pushed down the chair on which King An was sitting, and raised his hand slightly, only to hear two consecutive sound of bones breaking, and nothing else.

Yes, he made a move to cause King An's legs to break again, and now, it is impossible for King An to walk with a limp, unless he is re-healed, he will only be able to lie on the couch for the rest of his life. At first, he was lame, but at least he could take care of himself, that is, he needed the support of foreign objects when he walked, and his image was ugly.

He fell to the ground, without making any sound in his mouth, just looked at Xuanyuan Qing with a faint and very pitiful look.

"Hehe, can you still bear it?" Xuanyuan Qing squatted down to meet his gaze, his eyes were soaked with eerie killing intent, and he stabbed on King An's body like a needle: "You said that if I kill you now, will anyone know that I did it?" He shook his head and looked closer to King An: "No one will know, I just need to say that there are assassins in the imperial study, and you sacrificed your life to save me in order to protect me." The cold voice sounded like there was no deliberate threat, however, the killing intent that had just gathered in his eyes had gradually become fierce with his words, King An felt this killing intent, but there was no fear in his eyes, a light smile overflowed from the corner of his lips, and he said lightly: "You can do whatever you want!" ”

"That's what you said." Xuanyuan Qing lowered his voice, gritted his teeth and said something, and then reached out and grabbed his neck.

King An gently closed his eyes, waiting for his life to pass, and suddenly, the hand that was holding his neck was released, and then Xuanyuan Qing's clear voice sounded: "Someone." ”

After a while, a little eunuch pushed open the door of the imperial study and bowed down to him, and said respectfully: "The slave has seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" “

"Hmm." Xuanyuan stood with his hands in his hands, looked at him and said, "King An accidentally fell, and someone sent him back to the house to rest." ”

"Yes."

The little eunuch bowed down to receive the order, ready to retreat, Xuanyuan Qing's voice sounded again: "You must be careful in your actions, if you hurt King An on the road, don't blame me for curing your crimes!" ”

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince!"

As for why Xuanyuan Qing suddenly let go of King An, even he couldn't tell himself for what reason.

At the moment when he was about to make a ruthless move, his hand instantly withdrew away.

Is it because of brotherhood?

He laughed to himself.

Royal, there has never been any so-called brotherhood.

What is that for?

"Fourth brother, you should listen to my advice and stop it as soon as possible!" Is it because he cares about his brotherhood that he will withdraw the murderous thoughts that arose against him? But once he finally falls into the hands of the third child, with the festival between the two of them, will the third child let him go? What happened between the two of them and the queen, although there was not much news in the palace, but the night when Ling Wushuang's blood stained the Jiaofang Palace, no one knew about it, thinking of this, King An slowly opened his eyes, and his words of persuasion were particularly sincere.

"Humph!" Xuanyuan Qing snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and turned around, looked out the window and said, "Don't think that if I let you go, you will never stop nagging." I'm leaving you alive to see how I ascend to the throne and how I defeat that fool. ”

Hearing Xuanyuan Qing say this, King An lowered his head, smiled bitterly, and stopped talking.

After the two guards of the Imperial Forest Army carried King An out of the imperial study on a stretcher, Xuanyuan Qing stood alone in front of the window for about half an hour, with a dark color in his eyes, and turned around and went to Emperor Yongjia's bedroom.

He wanted to ask his good father, who loved him, and Chong, why he treated his mother so cruelly, and how much of a crime she had committed to need him to cut off his tongue and limbs to become a human being raised in a potion by potions.

The queen mother, the child wants to see you, but he is afraid, afraid that he will not be able to accept the fact that you have become a human being.

With the grief of the queen's transformation into a human being, as well as the hatred for Emperor Yongjia, Xuanyuan Qing walked forward step by step and walked to the gate of Yongle Palace.

"The slave has seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" Qin An was stunned when he saw Xuanyuan Qing appear, he thought that the person standing in front of him was Xuanyuan Mo, and his eyes suddenly swelled with excitement: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can enter the palace to see the emperor, the emperor will be very happy." "Since Emperor Yongjia was blind and decreed to canonize Xuanyuan Mo as the prince, but was rejected by him in disguise, as the days passed, it was rumored that Ling Wushuang not only became the princess of Daqi, but also inherited the throne of the monarch as a woman, this series of events made Emperor Yongjia feel more depressed and even more reluctant to step out of Yongle Palace half a step.

Seeing his dragon body gradually lose weight, and his hair became gray day by day, as a minion, Qin An was very heartbroken!

At this moment, he saw Xuanyuan Qing appear, thinking that Xuanyuan Mo had eliminated all the mustard for Emperor Yongjia, and deliberately came back from Daqi to inherit the throne, he was happy for his master, and felt that the next moment, Emperor Yongjia's mood would immediately improve.

Xuanyuan Qing's face was slightly cold, and he said, "Everyone go to the side and wait, without my order, you are not allowed to approach Yongle Palace for half a step." "Yes." Thinking that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had something to say to the emperor, so he didn't want them to keep these minions by his side, Qin Anxin turned around, bowed down to receive the order, and gave an order to the air, and then retreated to a slightly farther place with the guards of the Imperial Forest Army guarding the gate of Yongle Palace.

In the Yongle Palace, the veil hangs low, and it dances gracefully with the wind blowing in the window. Emperor Yongjia was sitting behind a low table in the center of the main hall, holding a knife in his hand, carving something.

His expression was extremely focused, as if he were sitting in a world of light. Dressed in regular clothes, the aura exuded by his body is less alienated, but more peaceful, and it is easy for people to get close to him.

On the low table in front of him, there were columns of portraits.

These are all portraits of the same woman, and the contours and lines of these portraits look so vivid and vivid, soft and graceful, under his unskillful technique, that they seem to be alive.

He was invisible, but from the carving skills of these figures, one could not notice that he was blind.

It is conceivable that the owner of the portrait in his heart has long been integrated into his blood and bones, and has become one with him, turning into the same person.

He not only gave her moving lines, but also gave her life and soul.

Because his life and soul had slipped away from under his blade.

The breeze blew his gray hair a little messy, but it didn't stop him from continuing to carve with a focused expression.

Cen Er, can I wait for your forgiveness in my lifetime?

I know that the mistakes I have made to you, even if I pay for them with my life, will not be able to make up for the suffering you have suffered over the years.

There is also Mo'er, and our son, he has a tough heart, it is impossible to forgive me, forgive me for ignoring him for so many years, and let my brothers, palace people, and people in the market bully him.

What to do? I know it's wrong, I want your forgiveness, I want to be with you and Mo'er's family.

Tears dripped down the corners of Emperor Yongjia's eyes, and the blood on his hands that was pierced by the blade. Every tear, every drop of blood, seemed to be his remorse, his self-blame, and his redemption of himself.

His face was pale and haggard, but with a deep sense of contentment.

Drops of tears, drops of blood, completely brought out the dirt hidden in his heart, making his whole person shiny, transparent, like an immortal.

Xuanyuan Qing pushed the door and walked into the main hall, and what he saw was this auspicious and peaceful, almost indescribable scene.

He recognized, recognized the wooden statue that was being carved in the rows on the low table, and in the hands of Emperor Yongjia.

Do you regret it? Do you regret your mistakes?

That's the wooden statue of the queen mother, yes, absolutely.

Since you love your mother so much, why do you want to be cruel to your mother?

caused her to become a human being and end up tragically.

Xuanyuan Qing was puzzled, he was very puzzled, his eyes turned red, he walked to the front of the short table, leaned over and knocked down all the portraits: "You are not worthy of loving her, you are not worthy!" "You're here." Emperor Yongjia stopped the movement in his hand, and a sentence overflowed lightly in his mouth, then got up and squatted on the ground, moo the wooden statue that was knocked to the floor by Xuanyuan Qing, he moo one, and carefully picked up one, he was not angry, nor displeased, so calmly squatting on the ground moo, "Can't you see?" You can't even see? Haha, God really has eyes! "Qing'er, sit."

There are a number of carved wooden statues, these Yongjia Emperor remembers them clearly in his heart, and after he picked up all the wooden statues on the ground, he sat back down with his memory, and said indifferently to Xuanyuan Qing. "Wrong, I'm Xuanyuan Mo now, not Xuanyuan Qing who was abandoned to Lingzhou by you!" Xuanyuan Qing gritted his teeth.

I couldn't eat for many days, so I could only drink some soup to replenish my strength, so that Emperor Yongjia's body is now very weak.

He took a few hard breaths, pressed down the exhaustion and frustration on his face, and picked up the knife again to carve it.

It seems that only by carving this wooden statue all the time will he have hope of living.

so that he will not be lonely and lonely to death in this huge palace.

Xuanyuan Qing stared at him resentfully, staring at his thin but handsome face, staring at his gray hair, staring at his godless eyes.

Before this kind of accident, how much he respected and admired the man in front of him. However, after a series of accidents, he hated and hated men for disliking their mother and son for no reason, and even more hated men for ignoring the relationship between father and son, husband and wife, and drove him out of the capital to Lingzhou, a bitter and barren land.

The position of the prince was originally his, this is the man's words to allow him personally, in the end, he got nothing, and he ended up as the queen mother became a human being, and he became a hundred officials in the court and the laughing stock of the world.

Therefore, every time in the dark night, when he is alone, he reminds himself not to forget the pain that men have brought to their mothers and sons.

Only the pain can prove the value of his life now.

How much he respected in the past, how much he admired the man in front of him, and how deeply he resented the man after their mother and son were changed.

Emperor Yongjia slowly raised his head, although his eyes were invisible, he looked at Xuanyuan Qing's gaze towards him. "I'll tell you a story, after you listen to this story, if you were me, how would you feel, and how would you do it......" He recounted lightly, recounting the emotional entanglement between him and the Ke sisters, and recounting the bits and pieces that happened to them, whether Xuanyuan Qing listened to it or not, the syllables in his mouth never stopped, even if his mouth was dry at the moment, and he wanted to drink saliva to moisten his throat, he didn't stop. No, don't say it, it's not true, it's not ......" Xuanyuan Qing covered his ears, staggered back a few steps, shook his head and said: "The queen mother is not the femme fatale you said, she won't, she won't do anything to kill her sister who loves her and loves her for the sake of the purpose, she won't." I don't believe it, don't say it, I don't believe it! "Why is this happening? Why? The queen mother actually did evil things to her own sister for a man who didn't love her, and forced her grandfather and uncle to get rid of her own sister who was blind, dumb, and stupid......

There was also the grandmother, and the kind old woman, who showed a sad expression every time she saw him, and she was buried in the fire because of the evil thoughts of the queen mother, and her bones were gone.

Ha ha! Isn't the queen mother virtuous and virtuous, and an example for all women in Xuanyuan to learn?

How could she be such a man, so unbearable, so vicious.

What happened to the fool was done secretly by the queen mother, and the palace people set fire to it at night......

Xuanyuan Qing only felt that his heart hurt terribly.

He really couldn't believe that the woman in Emperor Yongjia's mouth was the queen, the loving queen mother who gave birth to him, raised him, and loved him.

After speaking, Emperor Yongjia sighed and said indifferently: "This is all true, now you say, if you are me, how to love a woman who is like a femme fatale and even dares to do it with her own sister, how to sit back and watch after knowing all the truth?" I like Cen Er, I love him, because of me, she has lived a miserable life for nearly twenty years, and she almost died at the hands of your queen mother. Now, your mother has received her due retribution, and so am I. Therefore, there is a clear settlement between me and your mother, but what I owe to Cen Er's mother and son will never be repaid. "I thought about giving you the position of the prince, and even handing over the Xuanyuan River to you, but what you have done since the change of Ling Wushuang has disappointed me again and again. Can you tell me what it takes to be a king? “

Xuanyuan Qing suddenly smiled.

The smile was full of sarcasm: "If I were you, there would be no misidentification of people at all, so there would be no wrong step, no wrong step." The pain in his heart caused by Emperor Yongjia's words gradually calmed down. In any case, he was born and raised by his mother, even if she was wrong, but it was good for him, and what she did later was to be ruthless for him to be able to climb the chair in the Taiji Palace, so he pushed all the faults on Emperor Yongjia. "Yes, it's all my fault, now I'm not resentful of anyone, it's all over, it's all over......" Emperor Yongjia lowered his head and stroked the wooden statue in his hand lovingly, looking at everything, he would always feel better, yes, the fault was on him, if he didn't recognize the wrong person, if he made a mistake, how could there be a queen who took the wrong step by step, which led to everything that happened today.

Xuanyuan Qing said coldly: "In the past? How to get over? Tell you, only when I ascend to the throne and get rid of Ling Wushuang and your stupid son, will everything pass. ”

"Do you think you'll be their opponent?"

Emperor Yongjia asked him lightly.

"Opponents?" Xuanyuan Qing muttered, and in an instant, his face sank, and he said, "Yes, my martial arts are not as good as Ling Wushuang, but, do you know?" In a few days, Ling Wushuang will become my slave, and she will obey me. Emperor Yongjia said: "What did you do to her?" Don't you know she's a goddess? Don't you know how Twilight has to do with her? Alas! Stop it, I don't owe anything to you, so you don't need to hate everyone! ”

She'll be fine, she's a goddess who came into the world, how can she put herself in danger?

Emperor Yongjia didn't believe what Xuanyuan Qing said.

"She was hit by my puppet sword, and without me performing her sword skills again, she couldn't hope to return to normal. In that case, do you think I'll still be afraid of the night? When the time comes, I am afraid that I may kneel in front of me at night! ”

Xuanyuan Qing said with great confidence.

Puppet sword?

Just hearing this name, Emperor Yongjia couldn't help but be shocked.

But, after a moment, he was no longer worried.

Mo'er is a capable person, and Twilight Night, Twilight is also a powerful character, they will definitely think of a way to save Ling Wushuang.

In the end, in the end, they will not use the life of the third child to force him to relieve Ling Wushuang......

If the third child really gave Ling Wushuang a solution, would they be willing to let him go?

For the sake of a woman, brothers kill each other, he really doesn't want to see it.

In essence, the third child is not hopelessly bad.

He was just lost in love by love, he couldn't get it, and even hated Ling Wushuang, and then there was the matter of the queen, he couldn't figure it out for a while, and sent all his grievances to Ling Wushuang and the third child, so he thought about getting rid of them.

As their father, he wants to stop them from killing each other and prevent the fourth child from making mistakes again.

"Qing'er, you have to see your heart clearly, do you really want Ling Wushuang to die, or become your puppet, so that you will become at peace of mind and forget your hatred for her?" Emperor Yongjia said lightly, and Xuanyuan Qing said with a cold face: "My heart? My heart has been trampled on by her and turned into powder, how can I have a heart? I just want to see her die, I want to see the fool who married her die, I want to see all the men who fall in love with her die! Only in this way will my heart be regained, and I will become the unbridled and chic me I used to be. “

Emperor Yongjia shook his head and said slowly: "You have a heart, not only do you have, but your heart loves her deeply, but because you lost her, you couldn't get it again, and you were unwilling, so you wanted to kill her again and again." Actually, you want to arouse her idea, you want her to look back at you, you know that you are wrong, you know that you missed her, but she is already married to the third child, so that you even hate the third child to the bones, wake up, child, my father really doesn't want to see you make mistakes again and again! "Haha!" Xuanyuan Qing laughed out loud, and tears couldn't help but flow out of his eyes: "Do you think you know me very well?" Tell you, you don't know me, you never knew me! Besides, the courtiers already know that my enthronement will be celebrated in two days, do you think I will listen to you and give up all this? No, I'm not going to give up, and I'm not willing to give up. “

Wiping the wetness off his face, he said with grief in his eyes, but without losing his hatred: "In the past, I respected you very much and admired you very much, but since I was disgusted by you for no reason, and you drove me out of the capital to Lingzhou to stay safe, I hate, hate your ruthlessness to me, hate you for your ...... to the queen mother"
