When Wei Shuyi walked towards the courtyard with his mother, he saw that his father naturally followed.

"Father." Uncle Wei easily stopped, so he had to say, "I have something I want to say to my mother alone." ”

Zheng Guogong was beaten at his feet, did he even have to avoid it?

"Good ......" Zheng Guogong has always been very good at talking: "It just so happens that I want to go to the garden." ”

It had rained a lot last night, and he had to go and see the flowers and plants in his garden.

"Father walks slowly."

Zheng Guogong just left humming a little song on his front foot, Wei Shuyi just took two steps, stopped again, turned his head to look at his sister who came up, and reminded with a slightly tired smile: "Miaoqing, Brother is saying that you want to talk to your mother 'alone'-"

Wei Miaoqing nodded, but asked rhetorically: "Then I can't listen?" ”

Looking at his sister's natural demeanor, Uncle Wei had a feeling that he was in trouble alone and adding chaos in all directions.

Wei Miaoqing quickly explained the reason why she should be: "Horizontal and vertical is not a serious matter." ”

After all, if the elder brother wants to discuss serious matters, he will not talk to his mother anyway, otherwise wouldn't he play the piano to the cow and the chicken to the duck?

"Don't think I don't know, Brother is going to talk to my mother about Chang Niangzi, right?" Wei Miaoqing leaned closer again, and lowered her voice with curiosity in her eyes: "Brother must have seen Chang Niangzi on this trip, this time, is Brother angry?" Let me hear it too, I can still help my brother with a plan! ”

"Steward Fang, drag her down...... Take her back. The first person who couldn't listen to it was Duan, she waved her hand at the housekeeper on the side, and she couldn't bear to listen.

She really didn't want to recall the shame of any attempt to turn His Highness into a daughter-in-law!

Whenever she accidentally thought about it, she would run wildly in her heart, and burst into screams to stop herself from thinking about it further.

Seeing her mother and brother walking towards the courtyard, and Wei Miaoqing, who was forcibly persuaded to leave by Steward Fang, grabbed an arm by Steward Fang, couldn't help but be puzzled: "What happened to A-Niang these days?" ”

What about the power to bring Chang Niangzi to the house as a daughter-in-law?

But Ah Niang clearly cares about Chang Niangzi's affairs, but she thinks that Chang Niangzi is getting better and better...... Is my brother unworthy?

Fearing that Wei Miaoqing, who was the only one left to fight alone in the future, kept muttering in his heart, Duan had already sat down in Wei Shuyi's study.

The study here is wide and bright, divided into two rooms, even if Wei Shuyi is not at home for many days, the windows are still cleaned every day, and they are spotless.

The door to the study was closed, and Nagayoshi stood outside with a serious expression.

In the inner study, in order to facilitate whispered conversations, Duan and Wei Shuyi sat in the chairs on both sides of the small table with chessboards, and Duan couldn't wait to take the lead in asking, "...... Zigu, do you see people? Have you asked? Confirmed? ”

Wei Shuyi nodded: "Yes." ”

After Duan was slightly stunned, he showed a happy expression that seemed to cry and laugh, and said with a handkerchief: "I knew that it couldn't be wrong...... Except for His Highness, there will be no one else. ”

"Then, is Your Highness well?" Duan's eyes were red and he asked, "Are you thin or fat?" ”

"I've lost some weight." Wei Shuyi didn't dare to look at his mother's overly caring eyes: "But I've grown taller." ”

"Your Highness has grown taller...... Duan's tears were originally falling, and he suddenly laughed "sneering": "Your Highness can still grow taller......

She felt both novel and funny, but also glad and happy.

Then he hurriedly asked, "Has she ever mentioned me, Your Highness?" ”

Wei Shuyi nodded wordlessly, his eyes fell on the top of the box on the bookcase on the side, and said, "That's what 'she' asked me to bring to my mother." ”

Duan followed his line of sight, hurriedly got up and stepped forward, opened the box, saw the dazzling jewelry inside, and choked up: "Your Highness is still thinking about me as before......"

Duan picked up a bead flower, and with tears in his eyes, he returned to his youth in a trance.

She slowly put the beaded flower into her sideburns, and then picked two different styles of gold hairpins, as well as silk flowers, etc., and inserted them into her hair. There are also bracelets and bracelets, all of which are put on the wrist.

At the end, she smiled and asked with tears: "Zigu, is it good-looking?" ”

Uncle Wei nodded stiffly with a smile, and said frankly, it was very messy, just like his life full of betrayal at the moment.

It can be seen that the mother's affection for the first prince is so deep that it is impossible to hide.

Looking at his mother's tearful and joyful eyes, running around for many days, the smile on the face of Wei Shuyi, who had just been ill, became more and more pale.

He momentarily pressed down on the messy feeling and said the source of the torture that had tormented him all the way: "Mother, you can tell me the unspeakable secret about the former prince now. ”

Duan, who was raising his hand to caress the beaded flowers on his sideburns, was stunned when he heard this, and raised his eyes to look at him.

Wei Shuyi: "Before coming back, His Royal Highness personally promised that he had allowed my mother to tell me the truth. ”

Duan's hand hung down, stared at him suspiciously for a moment, and said, "Don't come to me." ”

She glanced at her son confidently and sat back down, "If Your Highness really wants you to know, why don't you tell you in person?" ”

Uncle Wei smiled bitterly: "It's probably 'she' who thinks what I did before is too annoying, and deliberately makes my heart suffer for a while." ”

Duan suddenly raised his eyebrows: "Your Highness also thinks that you are suspicious." ”

Uncle Wei is also accustomed to it, and pushes forward the topic without hesitation: "A mother can agree with her son's disgusting truth, but she can't question her son's filial piety - I know that you swore not to disclose this matter without authorization, and you will not use this to lie and blackmail." ”

Speaking of this, he smiled slightly: "Besides, if my son has the heart to deceive you, you really don't have to wait until today, so much trouble." ”

Duan's eyebrows skipped two jumps, although this statement was suspected of belittling her IQ, it was indeed very convincing......

Duan looked at his son's demeanor, and carefully analyzed it, whether it was to dispel his suspicions.

Before she spoke, she sighed slowly: "This matter is a long story and involves a wide range of things, and I don't know where to start for a while......

Wei Shuyi showed a patient demeanor that did not match his heart: "Mother said it slowly. ”

Just when he thought that his mother was going to lay the groundwork first, he heard her say: "Actually, when I used to study with the eldest princess in Chongyue's mansion, the person I saw most of the time was the eldest princess's younger brother, the prince Li Xiao. ”

Wei Shuyi's expression became dazed for a moment.

It's weird......

He had heard every word, and it was just an ordinary flat and straightforward language, but why was the sentence composed of them so difficult to understand?

Duan: "When I say this, you can always understand." ”

Wei Shuyi: "My son doesn't seem to understand ......"

"Then you're just that." Duan glanced at him contemptuously: "Isn't it time for you to rely on your own talent in the past to laugh at others for not understanding the content of Mr.'s teaching?" ”

"Mother ......" Wei Shuyi smiled with difficulty: "At such a juncture, you don't have to bother to teach your son the truth of being a man." ”

Along the way, he has deeply reflected on being a man.

Duan's mood seemed to be very good: "Edutainment, by the way." ”

Cai said: "What's more, what I said is not nonsense, but the truth." ”

"Mother......" Uncle Wei asked puzzledly: "Isn't the prince Li Xiao His Royal Highness the first prince?" Why did his mother call him the younger brother of the eldest princess of Chongyue, the prince Li Xiao? ”

This is the strangest of the mother's strange words.

Such a narrative seems to put "Prince Li Xiao" in the position of the object, and "Princess Chongyue" is the main body of the words.

"Nope." Duan shook his head, and his expression was silent and serious: "The prince Li Xiao is the prince Li Xiao in the eldest princess's mansion, and he is not the same person as the crown prince Li Xiao in the world. ”

Wei Shuyi's expression froze, and he quickly thought in his mind and asked, "The eldest princess of Chongyue is in the palace of the prince Li Xiao...... So where is the eldest princess of Chongyue? ”

"The eldest princess of Chongyue is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Duan's words fell, and Uncle Wei stood up suddenly.

Whenever he was calm and calm, such an action was a gaffe for him.

"Mother is ......"

Duan's voice was a little emotional: "Since about eight or nine years old, Li Xiao, who appeared in front of people, has been dressed as the eldest princess. ”

Wei Shuyi had a "boom" in his head, like a violent wind sweeping through the mountains.

He has thought of more than a hundred possibilities these days, like tributaries, but each tributary will always be blocked by the mountain wall when it reaches the middle of the swim, and it will no longer be able to move forward...... At this moment, these tributaries suddenly merged, stirred through the mountains, and rushed down from the high mountains, falling like a waterfall.

Standing under this waterfall, he was finally able to get a glimpse of the full face of this green mountain.

The clouds and mist dispersed, the green mountains were deep and vigorous, and the top of the mountain went straight into the nine heavens, and it was so thrilling.

Wei Shuyi stood there, no longer in doubt for a while, unable to speak.

But he could hear every word of his mother's words: "...... The prince Li Xiao is frail and sickly, and has not been cured, and there are few people living in the eldest princess's mansion, and the people who serve and take care of him are all in the know like me. ”

After a while, Wei Shuyi regained a trace of thought: "That...... Did the Emperor know? ”

Duan sighed as if he was in a nonchalant manner: "Your Highness once told me once that the emperor probably knew about ...... in order to calm my heart."

Approximately?

That's what it means to be clear on the surface.

Uncle Wei Yijing listened to his mother and said: "I vaguely remember that at that time, the first emperor seemed to prefer the three princes raised in the palace of the eldest grandson, but the three princes had a strong temperament...... As it grows bigger, the competition between the princes of various factions intensifies......"

"At first, the emperor wanted to use His Royal Highness to block those open and hidden arrows for the three princes, and let His Highness be the whetstone of the three princes and pave the way for the three princes."

When Duan said this, there was a hint of very vague ridicule and relief: "But the first emperor underestimated His Highness and His Highness's mother, and overestimated his own control, and the later situation gradually fell out of his control." ”

The third prince died unexpectedly, and after that, even he himself suddenly collapsed, and he didn't even have time to say a clear word, or he stayed, but there was no chance to spread the word about his dormitory.

Wei Shuyi's mood, along with these words, was dragged to the palace and government many years ago.

Therefore, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is glamorous in the eyes of the world, is just a knife forged by the emperor for another son?

It stands to reason that such a knife will either melt in the flames of war or be destroyed under party strife...... But this knife is sharpening more and more, and it is out of the control of the swordsmith.

She has always clearly known that she is being used by the emperor, but she has used this use, refined herself, and made herself go to the top of tens of thousands of people.

It's really, really, remarkable.

At this moment, thinking of what she had experienced, Wei Shuyi could only make such a plain evaluation.

Then he didn't know what he thought, his expression suddenly became slightly stunned, he looked at his mother, and asked, "So, go to Beidi and your relatives...... Should someone else be? ”

Duan's voice was light and hoarse: "No, it's also Your Highness." ”

When the words fell, Duan lowered his head and tears fell down.

Uncle Wei suddenly fell silent.

I see.

It turned out that the person who calmed down the war disasters for Dasheng, and the person who went to Beidi with his own body and fought for Dasheng to recuperate for three years have always been the same person.

But the world never knew, and he didn't know.

The person who built an immortal feat as a woman and stood on the throne of the prince suffered in the three years of Beidi...... I'm afraid it's not at all something that can be described by enduring humiliation.

Uncle Wei's eyebrows and fingers in his sleeves were slightly raised, and his heart was torn out with a dull pain and indescribable shock.

Knowing that the person he liked was not a man, he should have felt relieved and happy, but at this moment he suddenly knew that all the heavy past was pressed on her alone, and he only felt that the truth was cruel and dark in his heart.

But in this cruelty, it is accompanied by the indomitable Xuanhe. In this darkness, the most noble souls grow.

Uncle Wei's mind was in turmoil, and he raised his eyes to look out of the window lattice that had opened a slight gap, where green banana leaves poked out.

He suddenly thought scatteredly, if it weren't for her in the past to guard the Dasheng River again and again, this plantain may not have the opportunity to grow here, swaying in the spring breeze, accepting the gift of sunlight, and then reflecting it in his eyes.

"Mother." Wei Shuyi stared at the bush of plantains, and said in a daze: "I have read so many books, and I boast that I have read all the people and have a wide range of knowledge, but I never knew that there was such a person in this world. ”

When Duan heard this, he stood up suddenly, and he couldn't bother to wipe away his tears, walked up to his son, and asked him in shock: "Zigu, are you ...... Do you really still have a love for Your Highness? ”

She also tried to ask in the past, but Wei Shuyi never admitted it positively.

But at this moment, he said frankly: "Back to Mother, yes." ”

Duan's eyes darkened for a while, and he felt that the world had made people deceive people too much: "This ......"

How can she be worthy of His Highness's mother-in-law, and how can His Highness ...... Look down on her disgusting son!

Duan said bitterly: "...... What a good thing that is! ”

"It doesn't have to be." Uncle Wei said: "It's okay to do anything." ”

This is his mood at this moment, and probably in this life after that.

He regarded himself as extraordinary, and his heart was lonely, and if he was fortunate enough to see the wonder of such a green mountain, it was destined to be difficult to be moved by other plants and trees.

"Thank you mother."

After Wei Shuyi saluted his mother, he turned around and walked out.

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Duan came back to his senses and chased after him.

Looking at the lady with her head full of jewelry, Changji was stunned and felt that her wife was like a jewelry stall with long legs, and she didn't have to bring anything, she could go directly to the West Market to sell her stall.

Duan looked at his son's back, sighed and told Changji: "Hurry up and follow him...... Let's see what he's going to do. (End of chapter)
