On the other side of the wall, there is still a cluster of flowers, the moon is white and the flowers are tingting, elegant and light.

In front of the flowers sits a gazebo, the eaves are eight-edged, and the dragon pattern town is surrounded on all sides.

The old man who was as majestic as a pine stood in the pavilion, looking into the distance with cloudy eyes, solemn as a mountain, and not angry and arrogant.

The morning light in the pavilion has not yet entered, only a few lights are dim, dark and gloomy, reflecting in the deep wrinkles of the old man's ravine, which is more and more lined with the old man's pale twilight.

"So, the assassination of the second child on the way back to Beijing this time was arranged by the prince?"

The old man's voice was like a bell, a few words, and there was no heavy sound, but the pressure suddenly rose, shrouded in the pavilion as if a storm was coming.

The palace people standing far away outside the pavilion all felt that the air pressure dropped sharply, and the atmosphere did not dare to come out.

In the pavilion, the only old eunuch who was with the old man also bowed down and replied in a low voice, "The person who contacted the killer did go out of the prince's mansion, but it may not have been ordered by His Royal Highness the prince." The side concubine Jiang of the East Palace, her mother's family also has this strength. ”

"Jiang?" The old man asked lightly, "But is it the daughter of the loyal general who was awarded the title after the last victory in the northwest?"

"Back to the emperor, exactly."

"Heh," Emperor Chengde's cloudy eyes narrowed slightly, and the sky was deep, "General Zhongwu now has a heavy army, and the prince should do a lot of things to spoil his concubine and kill his wife in order to win him over, right?" ”

The old eunuch Ming Fu sighed, "The prince favored Jiang's mother and daughter, and even took the right to give the crown princess the right to give it to Concubine Jiang. Now, the East Palace is already the world of the Jiang family, and even the crown princess has to avoid its edge. The three county lords of the Jiang clan are even more happy to bully the four county lords who came out of the Jiang family......"

"Foolish thing! The dignified prince actually spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, it is ridiculous! Emperor Chengde overturned the teacup with one palm, and was furious, "This rebel is on the line of the military, and seeing that I am old, I can't help him, so I start to do whatever I want!" ”

Ming Fu glanced at the old emperor's face worriedly, and hurriedly persuaded, "Your Majesty, you are angry, the imperial doctor said that you should not be angry!" Now that His Royal Highness King Lu's family has entered Beijing safely, as long as you are well, everything is still in time! ”

"Just in time? It's too late. Emperor Chengde frowned, his cloudy eyes were covered with gloom, suppressed his anger, and he was desolate and depressed.

He sighed heavily, "In this situation, what's the use of the second family's family returning to Beijing?" My illness has made the rebel completely in power, the second child is gentle, and he has no foundational power, how can he fight against that ruthless rebel! Ahem......"

Emperor Chengde coughed violently, and Mingfu hurriedly stepped forward to give him a good breath when he saw this, "Your Majesty, your anger is relieved, His Royal Highness King Lu will enter the palace immediately, maybe there will be a turnaround!" His Royal Highness has been in the fiefdom for many years, and he is no longer the second prince of the year! ”

Mingfu persuaded and persuaded, but seeing that Emperor Chengde's face still did not improve, he felt a sigh in his heart and was about to go to the imperial doctor.

At this time, a string of sweet and cheerful "giggles" followed the breeze and jumped into the pavilion, taking the baby's clean childishness and stirring up the stagnant air of the pavilion.

In the pavilion, the two old men were stunned for a moment, looking in the direction from which the voice came, and their eyes were surprised.

Emperor Chengde unconsciously was calmed by this tender and clean children's voice, and forgot to be angry for a while, he looked at the familiar vermilion wall, and was in a trance, "Isn't that the backyard of the dormitory of Empress Yuan before his death?" How can there be children playing in it? ”

Ming Fu saw that Emperor Chengde's complexion had improved, and his hanging breath was relieved, and he was also full of surprise,

"This ...... Although today is the emperor's 60th birthday, and the wife and clan have all brought their children into the palace, who dares to let the child play in the Jiaoyuan Palace? Besides, although this Jiaoyuan Palace has been empty for many years, there are guards inside and outside, how did this kid get in? ”

Although Emperor Chengde set up another successor, his feelings for the Empress Yuan are still there.

After entering the palace for many years, even if his son became the prince, Emperor Chengde did not let her live in this Jiaoyuan Palace, and only lived in the Weiyang Palace where the imperial concubines of the past dynasties lived, which shows his friendship with the Empress Yuan.

Over the years, Emperor Chengde has grown older, and he likes to come to the palace of the Yuan Empress more and more to sit and see this familiar scenery and familiar pavilion......

"Huh? Sister Iris, look, there's a hole behind the flower here! ”
