Emperor Ming Yuan withdrew his hand from the table, put his right hand on his forehead, and rubbed his temples on both sides with his fingers spread apart. The shadow of his palm shrouded his face, making his face dark, and a look of exhaustion could be seen in his eyes.
After rubbing it for a while, he put it down and looked at Yuan Qingling, with a tired face and a pale face, "I could hardly fall asleep last night. I only squinted for a while when it was almost dawn, but I was immediately awakened by a dream."
Yuan Qingling's heart shrank slightly, "Father, please be at ease, the dragon body is the most important thing."
Emperor Ming Yuan pressed his hands and said: "In my dream, I saw him crying and kneeling in front of me, asking me to forgive him for his unfilial piety. He said that he could never serve me again in the future."
Yuan Qingling's heart skipped a beat, "Father, that was just a dream."
"Yes, it's a dream!" The sadness in Emperor Ming Yuan's eyes slowly gathered, "But it's so real, I can even hear his cry, it's very sad, but it seems that not long ago, he just
He was so big that he couldn't even walk yet. When I held him, his eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky. The ministers at that time said that this boy would have great potential in the future. He...he was mine.
The eldest son, my first son. I later had many children, but the first one was different after all."
Yuan Qingling felt extremely sad after hearing this. Her nose became sore and tears came up. She choked and said: "Father, please don't be so sad."
"The saddest thing is this," Emperor Ming Yuan stood up slowly, he seemed to be much older, and his voice was hoarse, "He is not even worthy of asking me to feel sad for him. He is the eldest son of the emperor, but he is the most unlucky.
"
Emperor Ming Yuan was also sad when he demoted Lord Yu Wen, and Yuan Qingling knew it at that time, but that time was different from now. This time Yuan Qingling could hear the despair in his heart.
"I'm afraid he will be useless. Go and tell Concubine Di to advance Tian'er's marriage as soon as possible." Emperor Ming Yuan said solemnly, then raised his hand and asked Yuan Qing to leave.
Yuan Qingling looked at his back and said, "Yes, father, take care!"
Yuan Qingling went to the Qiankun Palace and told Yu Wenhao to go to the Imperial Study Room.
"How is your father feeling?" Yu Wenhao asked quietly.
"I'm very sad." Yuan Qingling's eyes were still red.
Yu Wenhao was startled, "That day when I went to the palace to report, he didn't say anything, nor did he show any sadness. I also said... he doesn't care much anymore."
"After all, he is his biological son, why don't he care?" Yuan Qingling felt sad, "We are also parents, and this is an inseparable bond."
Yu Wenhao sighed deeply, "Okay, I'll go there and you can accompany the emperor's grandfather. He's not happy either."
Who can be happy about this?
Yuan Qingling went in, Yu Wenhao went out, and their hands separated in the air.
The Supreme Emperor was sitting in the main hall, with Fu Bao crawling at his feet, one person and one dog, looking very peaceful.
Yuan Qingling leaned over and held the Supreme Emperor's hand, "Don't be sad."
"It is your own fault, there is nothing to feel sorry for." The Supreme Emperor said calmly.
In this life, he has experienced many life and death, and he himself has experienced life and death several times, and he has seen much more enlightenment than Emperor Ming Yuan.
Yuan Qingling stopped talking and sat quietly with him.
Fubao whimpered, moved over, and rested his head on Yuan Qingling's shoe. The scars on its body were still mottled and visible, a bit ferocious. Yuan Qingling looked at the Qiankun Palace and remembered the first time he entered it.
At that time, the Supreme Emperor was critically ill, and she was also on the verge of life and death. In the blink of an eye, four years had passed.
