Chapter 10 How much love turns to ashes 78 The emperor has no family ties. There is a saying that if the mountain doesn't come, I will go to the mountain. Although I understand this truth, I still can't take the step forward.
Because I can't cause trouble for Fu Donglou. No matter whether he is tied up by government affairs or emotionally entangled, as long as he doesn't come for a day, I must obey the imperial edict and listen to him: be good.
This is actually a very twisted mentality.
Daqi Country is a country where men are superior to women. It is normal for men to have groups of wives and concubines, let alone the king of a country. When I didn’t know my identity, I once thought: When I marry Princess Xiyuan, I will definitely be the first wife.
, as the only main wife, my husband must only be good to me, and tell me everything. No matter good or bad, we will bear it together, and we will stay together until we grow old. Things like side wives, concubines, intercourse, and so on.
Yes, I always thought that was Jiang Huai's world and had nothing to do with me.
But since Fu Donglou came into my heart, I have not been so relieved. I have jealousy, sadness, and jealousy. I have become worried about gains and losses. Inexplicably, if he doesn't come these days, what will happen to me?
Not doing anything, just being in a daze.
"Princess, the Emperor is about to go to court, do you want to go and take a look?" the palace maid Yuanyuan reminded me in a low voice.
This girl's eyeliner is quite considerate, and she is not talkative. Her temperament is like a combination of Sanyuan and Sixi, with a bit of foolish loyalty to her master, and a bit of well-controlled straightforwardness.
Seeing that I was speechless, she suggested again: "Otherwise, just take a look from a distance. I know the corner and no one will find me."
I think I was in a daze before I agreed to Yuanyuan's suggestion.
Or maybe, I just missed him so much, missed his eyebrows, missed his eyes, missed his domineering demeanor, and missed the way he helplessly shook his head at me. When I recalled everything, I realized that I missed Fu Donglou.
I'm almost going crazy thinking about it, and the string called reason is going to collapse in my mind, which is very dangerous.
…
When the courtiers filed out, Yuanyuan whispered to me: "Princess, it's okay now. Let's go around from the back and look at the emperor."
I did not move, but stared at a very eye-catching person among the ministers, and my body stiffened unconsciously.
Just like a handsome general with a white horse and a silver spear, he finally came with his horse and whip raised. His sudden and unexpected appearance caught people off guard - it was Lian Zheng, Lian Zheng was back!
I am sure that at this moment, two big words must be deeply engraved on my cheek - "tragedy".
Lian Zheng didn't see me, but my brain was obviously not working hard anymore. What's going on? Why didn't anyone tell me? Did Fu Donglou not come to me because Lian Zheng came back? That's not too bad.
Possible?
The fragments of my thinking are constantly being pieced together, but I still can't figure out the whole story.
Yuanyuan: "Princess Princess..."
"I don't want to read it anymore," I shook my head, and then took out the heart-shaped stone that was passed around from my arms. I thought this could best represent my heart. "Go and give this to the emperor. What?"
No need to say anything, then come back."
Yuanyuan was a little confused, but still nodded, "No."
After I answered casually, my eyes suddenly widened. I pointed at Jiang Huai with trembling hands and looked around hurriedly, for fear of being seen by others, "How did you find me?! You can't. This place should be very hidden. I don't have it."
See you..."
Jiang Huai's smile was particularly professional, "Have you forgotten my brother's second career? Brother, I am a leader in the fortune-telling world, and I can do it~"
"Oh," I was too lazy to argue with him and quickly asked the question I was most concerned about, "I actually saw Lian Zheng! Did you see it? I didn't know he was back?"
Jiang Huai shrugged and said, "Well, I've seen him for two or three days, you don't have to be so excited~"
Me: "Why did he come back suddenly without any warning in advance?"
Jiang Huaiqu picked up his fingers and flicked the non-existent dust on his brand new court uniform, "Yeah, it's hard to say. Maybe he traveled all over the country just to have an affair with you~"
"..." Okay, I was wrong. I treated a lunatic as a serious person again. "You should find an imperial doctor to take a look. My advice is sincere."
Jiang Huai: "Heart disease only needs a heart medicine doctor. I am terminally ill and only need you."
I said angrily: "You can rhyme more! But I don't want to hear this at all. If you want to tell me what happened recently, just tell me. If you don't want to tell me, just leave. Don't be so annoying, okay?!"
"
"You're really stupid." Although Jiang Huai was mocking me, his tone was very soft. If you ignore the meaning, it could barely be considered gentle and pleasant. "I'll tell you in a safe place, come here."
He grabbed my sleeve and dragged me into the rockery. This technique was so skillful that one could tell at a glance that he was a habitual criminal.
There was no light in the hidden place, so I asked anxiously in a low voice: "What happened? Fu Donglou hasn't come to see me for several days."
After Jiang Huai heard this, he still had the same expression as if he was chatting and drinking tea, "It's normal. Some concubines haven't seen the emperor for more than half a year, but you only have a few days. Isn't this your own choice?
Don't you have to finish the journey crying? Do you think everyone is like me and only willing to go crazy for one woman?"
I didn't want to interrupt, "Huh, a woman? Don't make me laugh, I don't want to hear jokes now."
He also felt unsure, "Those women... are crazy about me, but I can't control them. Anyway, I'm only crazy about you."
"Whether you are crazy or not, tell me what you know quickly!"
I watched Jiang Huai's lips part slightly, but after a while, he didn't even utter a sound.
Forget it, I don't want to deal with him anymore.
I was turning around to leave, but Jiang Huai grabbed my sleeve, "Actually, this matter, although it seems complicated, is very simple. It's just that Lian Zheng withdrew his troops and returned to Beijing, but he went first without saying a word.
When Prince Heshun met your father, who held one hundred thousand forbidden army talismans, the group of admonishers at Suzhengtai were not happy. They regarded it as "rebellious" and "disrespectful to the Holy One".
The famous general Lian Zheng and your father packed a few books together, and the emperor’s study room must have piled up a lot of them~"
I frowned and remained silent.
Jiang Huai stared at me unblinkingly, his eyes deep and thoughtful, "Lian Zheng won this battle again. An admonisher dragged the coffin to give a death remonstrance, saying that Lian Zheng wanted to follow King Heshun...
...rebellion. In fact, after meeting your father, Lian Zheng also went to see King Hengyue and others, and finally entered the palace to see the emperor. According to my observation, these factions are all fighting for Prime Minister Shi. Alas, the emperor really didn’t
Family affection, my dear, what do you think we can do to go sightseeing?"
I think Jiang Huai's meaning can be summed up in one sentence - a prince who doesn't want to be an emperor is not a good prince.
