Chapter 54
I am afraid that there was no such concept in his philosophy! He was stunned for a long time before he said, "After such a long time, you still don't understand my intentions?" ”
I tentatively twitched my hand, but unfortunately it didn't work, I looked at him and whispered: "I don't want to be a queen, I grew up by my aunt's side, and I have seen too many battles between harem concubines, and I don't want to go through this again." It's not because of my position, I'm just an ordinary woman, I just want to be with my husband for the rest of my life. ”
He was stunned and pondered for a moment before he raised his eyes to look at me and asked, "Is this why you rejected the third and fifth children?" “
I was stunned this time, I didn't expect him to know about what they confessed to me. I nodded, and shook my head again: "Hao Xi, I only think of him as an elder brother, and I have never thought about anything else. Haoqing has been my playmate since I was a child, and I have always treated him as my younger brother. ”
"What about He Zhengqing?"
I laughed out loud, thinking of the words he said viciously that year: "Your Majesty, you misunderstood, Zhengqing is a close friend, and it has nothing to do with love, I have never loved him!" But I want to thank you, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid Jiayi wouldn't have married him so smoothly! ”
He looked at me seriously for a moment, and when he saw that I looked relaxed, he finally put his mind at ease, and said with a smile: "I really misunderstood for a while! Later, He Zhengqing didn't see how sad you were on the day of his wedding, and he realized that he would be wrong. ”
I smiled and stopped talking.
"Then why did you refuse me?"
Alas! After talking for a long time, I turned around, and I looked up helplessly: "I don't want to marry a person with a wife, I don't want to destroy other people's marriages, that's the reason!" ”
"But before I met you, I was already married, besides......" He hesitated, but I knew what he meant, so I simply said it for him: "Besides, the harem is the epitome of the previous dynasty, and every concubine maintains a family. My heart suddenly became irritable, and I raised my eyebrows to look at him: "Then the emperor, what am I?" A more beautiful and delicate chip? To maintain the eldest brother with great military achievements and the second brother with auxiliary talents? ”
He was stunned for a moment, and looked at me with a dark look in his eyes: "So you think of me like this?" ”
I didn't say a word, just bowed my head, and my hand habitually turned the purple jade jade bracelet on my left wrist.
His gaze followed mine, and he suddenly got up and stared at me tightly: "Could it be Hao Qian?" Is it Hao Qian that you like? ”
I didn't expect him to guess it, so I simply didn't deny it. He looked at me deeply. After a long time, his face finally showed sadness.
"I said, why did Hao Qian repeatedly resist the decree and refuse to marry! I said why no matter how hard I try, I can't get to your heart! I said why you never looked down on those kings and grandchildren, it turned out to be because of this! He was taken aback by his own reasoning.
The cold wind passed between us, with a faint chill, and his eyes were as cold as ever. I couldn't deny it, I just kept my head down.
He suddenly crouched down in front of me, wrapped me in a chair, and asked me, "Why?" ”
I forced the corners of my mouth: "Love is love, how can there be so many whys!" ”
He was stunned and smiled bitterly: "Yes! Love is love! There are so many whys! ”
He looked panicked, I was startled and went to help him: "Your Majesty! ”
He pushed me away, and stumbled out the door without caring about the crane in his coat. I took my clothes and chased them out, only to see a line of footprints stretching out in the snow......
I stopped in the snow, the snow was puffing, and in a moment my clothes were wet, and an umbrella suddenly appeared above my head, and I looked up and saw that it was my second brother.
"Let's go!" He patted me on the shoulder and helped me follow him into the house.
He helped me sit down and told Huaibi to cook me a bowl of ginseng soup before he said to me, "The emperor has just come?" ”
I nodded.
He read my description, somewhat guessed what had just happened, and sighed: "Can you make it clear to the emperor?" ”
I nodded again.
He saw that I didn't want to say more, so he had to sigh resignedly: "When the emperor was still a prince, I was vaguely aware that several of the emperor's concubines were still rewarded by various palaces when the emperor was alive, and there were two concubines who had been with him since childhood, and they never accepted concubines or married side concubines. In the past, it was rumored that the emperor was afraid of the inside, but how could the emperor's temperament be afraid of the inside? How did the fearful people achieve great things?! He looked at me deeply, "The emperor's heart for you is not only me, even Zhengqing has noticed it, the emperor hurriedly gave marriage to Zhengqing that day, are you really a good thing for the emperor?" It's not that the emperor found Princess Jiayi's mother to set up this marriage, otherwise why would Zhengqing make such a fuss that day! ”
I sighed, how could I not know, but there are many things that do not necessarily pay off!
The second brother saw that my face was sad, got up and patted me on the shoulder: "I will go to King Jing tomorrow and ask him to ask for an order early!" ”
"Don't, second brother." I grabbed the corner of my second brother's clothes: "He is angry, if he goes to him now, he will inevitably use the matter of the emperor's filial piety as an excuse to dismiss it, and it will be even more difficult to ask for a decree in the future!" You tell Hao Qian about this, let him be prepared, don't act rashly, if the emperor asks, he can deal with it! ”
The second brother looked at me: "My brother is not as thoughtful as you think!" Now that you've made up your mind, don't think about your brother's words just now, go to bed early! ”
I nodded, and my brother told Huaibi to wait for me to bathe and change my clothes before leaving. Looking at my brother's back, I couldn't help but feel anxious about my future......
The snow is getting heavier and heavier, as if the sky has broken a hole, and a large area is pouring down, I braved the heavy snow and came to the Yiwang Mansion, the glorious and noisy Yiwang Mansion in the past, but at this moment it is cold. I pushed the door in, and only one servant was in the porter's room, and when he saw me pushing the door in, he went in to report it.
After a while, the housekeeper came out, and when he saw that it was me, he knelt down first, and then touched a handful of tears on his face, and welcomed me in.
"How did you become like this? What about the princess? "I looked at the grass and trees that I used to be familiar withered and withered, and even though they were covered with snow, they still looked desolate and desolate.
"After the prince's accident, the princess locked herself in the room, and even if we went, she wouldn't open the door!" He sighed, he had been by Hao Xi's side, and naturally knew the affection between me and Hao Xi, and he didn't hide it.
The domineering and domineering woman in my memory suffered this catastrophe, and it was difficult to survive it in the end!
"Why are there so many servants and maids left? Didn't the second brother come? "I watched the silence of the garden, and it was rare to see a single figure.
"Lord Su has been here, but the prince is not there after all, and there are not so many people to serve, although the lord has given a lot of money, but after all, there is no income, so the slaves are in charge and dismiss some people, and the remaining people are enough to serve the master!"
I sighed and said, "You're doing a good job!" If there is anything, you can go to Su Mansion, no matter what, raise this house, our Su family can still raise it! ”
He sighed and touched a handful of tears: "The slave thanked Miss, and it was not in vain that the prince and you knew each other!" ”
I accompanied a few words of relief, the housekeeper lifted the light purple curtain, Wei Jinyao sat in front of the dresser, her face was no longer as arrogant as before, and when she heard the sound of me coming in, she didn't even turn her head.
"Princess! Miss Su is here! The butler called softly, and she turned around. At this moment, she is just a gentle and gentle woman, with a hint of sadness between her eyebrows.
"Princess!" I tried to keep my voice as calm as I could, for a haughty woman like her, I would have provoked her even more if I had spoken in a sympathetic tone.
She just glanced at me, but didn't speak, her eyes were only on a jade hairpin in her hand. I think it must have been given to her by Hao Xi, even though Hao Xi is now in prison, she still misses him obsessively.
I walked over softly and called out again, "Princess!" ”
She finally raised her head, tears sliding down like rain, but the corners of her mouth pulled out a stiff arc: "Are you satisfied now?" ”
I looked at the sadness in her eyes, and a sadness welled up in my heart, I spoke softly, trying to make my voice as soft as possible: "I think you misunderstood, Hao Xi is my brother, how can I hope that he is not good?!" ”
She was stunned for a moment, silent for a long time, as if she was digesting my words, but then smiled sadly: "This is just your wishful thinking!" ”
I looked at her and couldn't let her untie the knot for a while, so I had to continue: "I have already looked for His Royal Highness King Jing, he promised to ask the emperor, the second brother and Lord He will also deal with Hao Xi, I think Hao Xi will come out soon, I just want to ask you, if Hao Xi comes out just a cloth cloth, are you still willing to follow him?" ”
She looked at me with wide eyes, and she couldn't imagine that I came to ask her these things this time, for a long time, so long that I thought that her brain was closed after being locked up for so long, but she suddenly knelt in front of me: "My father is corrupt and harms the country, affecting His Highness, His Highness will not give up, I can live in the world is already grace, and now I only ask His Highness to be released from prison, even if I am a slave and a maid, I am willing!" ”
I listened to the sadness, and after a while, I stopped my sadness: "Our Su family has a house in Jincheng, although it is not as good as the palace, but it is enough for this big family!" Moreover, with my eldest brother and His Royal Highness King Jing under his care, even the emperor could not find fault with him. When Haoxi comes out, you will go there and settle down first, and then you will have the opportunity to live according to your own heart in the future! ”
She listened silently, tears could not stop falling, after listening to me, suddenly leaned down, kowtowed three times, I quickly turned around, did not dare to accept her big gift. I helped her up and said softly: "When the time comes, the second brother will send someone to send you over, with our Su Mansion here, we will never let Yiwangfu fall, and you will also show the appearance of the master mother!" I sat down at the table with her, took out a stack of silver tickets, and when I saw her excuse myself, I put it down with a smile: "Not much, but some of my private money, barely supporting it for a while, and when you get to Jincheng, there is a big brother, and I will never treat you badly, you can rest assured, such a big palace, every place has to use money, you don't have to shirk it anymore!" ”
She couldn't speak anymore, and she wanted to bow down again, but I grabbed her tightly and shed tears for a while before she finally stopped!
She sent me out from afar, I looked at her emaciated figure, and suddenly felt unspeakable sadness in my heart, at this moment, I was really afraid, afraid that my fate would one day be controlled by others......
