Xianyue was a little surprised that Gao Bin would ask this. After all, he was just a minister. It was undoubtedly a bit abrupt to ask this rashly. She thought for a moment and said: "Everyone will encounter something that makes them more or less happy in their life."
Regret or regretful things are inevitable for me, but I believe that instead of living with regrets all the time, it is better to put aside the burden and look forward, which will be better for myself and others."
Gao Bin bowed and said: "What the empress said is true, but there are some things that are so hard to let go of in my mind. Just like the incident of Emperor Huixian, even though more than ten years have passed, I still think of it from time to time and find it hard to let go."
Xianyue said warmly: "There is nothing that cannot be let go. It just depends on whether Mr. Gao is willing to let it go."
"Then if you hurt someone, can you just let it go and pretend that nothing happened?" This sentence circled Gao Bin's mouth several times, and finally he couldn't help but say it.
Xianyue frowned and said, "Harming people? Are you talking about me, Master Gao?"
Gao Bin took a deep look at her and said: "Your Majesty has a good nature, how can she harm others? I am talking about myself. I remember that a few years ago, a river changed its course. Due to a miscalculation, when the flood came, the river was flooded.
Hundreds of people died. Although I did not mean it, I still feel guilty and uncomfortable over the years. I often think of the hundreds of people crying for help in the flood when I close my eyes."
"The flood is ruthless. It's not Mr. Gao's fault. You have tried your best. I believe that the people's spirits in heaven will not blame Mr. Gao. Besides, blaming yourself will not change anything except making yourself sad. Furthermore, although you are because of something
The timing was wrong and hundreds of lives were lost. However, in the past ten years or so, you have been ordered by the king to run in various rivers and work hard day and night. You have saved more than hundreds and thousands of people. I believe that after a hundred generations, the world will still remember you.
Your Excellency’s achievements.”
Gao Bin lowered his head and said: "I am scared and dare not act like a queen and speak so grandly."
"With the merits of Lord Gao, I am worthy of my words. I hope that Lord Gao can continue to share the emperor's worries and benefit the people in the future!"
Gao Bin bowed deeply and bowed, lowered his eyes and said, "Please rest assured, Madam, I will do my best to live up to Madam's expectations." After that, he bowed again, resigned and left.
Looking at Gao Bin's retreating figure, Xia Qing frowned and said, "My Majesty, do you think what this Master Gao said later is a bit strange? It seems that every word is directed at your Majesty."
Xianyue patted the sleeping Yong Cang in her arms, frowned slightly and said, "Yes, there are some, but I have never had any contact with him, let alone any feud. I just met him a few times. To be specific,
It really doesn’t make sense.”
"That may be because I'm overly concerned." As he said this, the autumn wind blew by, bringing a refreshing chill. Xia Qing raised her sleeves to block the wind and said: "My lady, the wind is blowing. I'll help you in, so as not to hurt you."
Brother Twelve is freezing."
Let's talk about Gao Bin. After leaving the royal ship, he came to a small boat and silently watched the glow on the horizon being swallowed up bit by bit by darkness.
"What are you thinking, Master Gao?" The sudden voice woke Gao Bin up. He looked sideways and saw that Yongzhang came to him at some point and stopped with him to watch the gradually darkening sky.
Gao Bin took a deep breath, looked at the sky again and said: "Just now... I saw the queen."
Yong Zhang glanced at him quickly and said immediately: "What did she say to you?"
Under the last glimmer of light, Gao Bin said slowly: "She asked me to let go of the past and not look back, so that the days to come will be easier."
Yongzhang was silent for a moment and said: "What about you, can you let it go?"
Gao Bin looked down at his hands on the handrail and murmured: "I also want to let go. I don't want to be over fifty and have to suffer such pain and suffering, but... I can't let go; I just want to close my eyes now."
With just one eye, you can see my poor daughter. She died so unjustly and pitifully, but I, the father, was so ignorant that she died inexplicably for more than ten years. It is really ironic."
"It seems that Fang Jian has admitted it." Yong Zhang sighed and said, "Then what are Mr. Gao's plans for the future?"
Gao Bin turned to look at him and said, "I should ask Third Brother this question. What do you want me to do for you when you tell me these things?"
Yongzhang tightened his hand on the railing and met Gao Bin's eyes and said: "As an important minister in the court, and always relied on by Emperor Ama, Gao Da must know the situation in the harem of the previous dynasty, so he should know that I, the third
My brother is only in name only, and is not valued by the Emperor. If I build a palace next year, I am afraid I will only get a job."
Gao Bin said calmly: "The third elder brother is the eldest son of the emperor. How can the emperor not pay attention to you?"
Yong Zhang laughed at himself: "The eldest son? So what, the emperor only has the twelfth brother in his eyes at the moment, and I? I am simply superfluous."
Gao Bin's eyelids twitched and he asked cryptically: "The third brother plans to fight?"
A strange color flashed across Yongzhang's eyes, and he immediately shook his head and said: "I never dared to have such delusions. I just want to do my part for the Qing Dynasty and the foundation laid by my ancestors, instead of doing nothing all my life." As he said, he
He bowed deeply to Gao Bin and said sincerely: "Master Gao, please give me a helping hand. I would like to thank you in advance."
"Third Brother is serious." Gao Bin helped him up and said meaningfully: "Whether it is redundant or not, it is too early to say this now."
Yongzhang is not a fool. On the contrary, under Su's training, he already has a certain eye for seeing people. After hearing these words, he immediately understood what Gao Bin meant and said happily: "In that case, everything will work out."
Mr. Gao, Yongzhang will definitely remember your kindness in his heart!"
"No need for kindness, I just want justice for my poor daughter!" Gao Bin said this with gritted teeth. This hatred was not only because Gao died unjustly, but also because he had been fooled for more than ten years.
, treat enemies as benefactors.
How could Yongzhang not understand his intentions, and took advantage of the situation and said: "Don't worry, Master Gao, I will definitely help you get this justice, so that Imperial Concubine Huixian can rest in peace."
Hongli never dreamed that what happened more than ten years ago would one day be revealed by his biological son, and would also involve Xianyue. If he knew about it, he would probably find it extremely ironic.
After Yujia stayed in Shandong for a few days, he headed south again. As Yujia was getting further and further away from the capital, someone in the Forbidden City also began to take action.
Hongli and his concubines accompanied the Queen Mother on her southern tour. Qian Moduo, as the general manager of the House of Internal Affairs, also brought people to accompany him. The affairs of the House of Internal Affairs were temporarily left to the deputy general manager to take care of; because many of the masters were not in the palace, the internal affairs
The work in the government is much freer than before, and I only need to be responsible for some daily tasks.
On this day, Zhou Quan read the account books and called the steward of the greenhouse to ask him about the recent situation of the greenhouse. After the stewards answered them one by one, Zhou Quan asked again: "Have you sent it to various palaces and courtyards?"
