Chapter five hundred and fortieth one world harmony
The entire palace is shrouded in tranquility and serenity, as if there is no killing or bloodshed. No one will remember how many people's bones have been buried in this luxurious palace. What people see is always the glory and wealth in front of them.
.
The bloody storms one after another ended in a hurry and cramped manner. The glory of the red walls and green tiles remains the same. Only the winners will always be recorded, and those who fell and failed will never be recorded.
Their lives are like birds flying by in a hurry, leaving no trace.
During these days, the court was very peaceful, and so was the harem. The emperor remained peaceful and gentle, but sensitive people could still feel that the emperor's heart was covered with a layer of unspeakable sadness. He could often be seen sitting alone.
No one dared to ask about it, or to disappear without a trace for the entire afternoon, but no one dared to mention it, but questions arose in everyone's mind.
Your Majesty, what happened?
For Liu Yun, this period of time was very peaceful. Although he encountered many accidents during this period, looking back on the period of waiting for childbirth many years later, he can only describe it with a few words: thrilling. Fortunately, mother and child are safe. If both children can be healthy, they will be happy.
Better.
She had never thought that she could see an expression that was close to despair on the emperor's face. She had always believed that the emperor had a stronger heart than Dongfang Ye. An emperor should be more cruel and cruel than anyone else.
Everyone knows how to sacrifice, whether it is themselves or others.
Liuyun is sensitive. Even if no one tells her what happened in the palace, she can still feel the subtle changes. Everyone becomes respectful and cautious. She is not used to asking questions because she believes that it is her turn.
Someone will always tell her what she knows, and since everyone is concerned about her health, she can just pretend to be deaf and dumb.
It took several days before Dongfang Ye told Liu Yun the whole thing. He had been reluctant to tell her, at least until her body recovered, but he still told her. Liu Yun asked him why.
When he finally told her this, Dongfang Ye had a strange expression on his face and hesitated to speak.
When Liu Yun stood in a small independent building at the end of the inner hall of Qianling Palace, a strange feeling arose in her heart. It was not until she pushed the door in that she finally understood where the strange feeling came from.
The furnishings in the room were exactly the same as the house where her mother lived in the Qianyage of Ji Mansion. Even the exquisite wooden box on the dressing table was exactly the same, and she was only slightly stunned to understand that it was made according to the Qianyage.
This is the reason why Qianling Palace became a forbidden area in the harem, because this is also a forbidden area in the heart of the emperor.
Liuyun walked slowly up to the second floor. The exquisite carvings on the wooden escalator were exactly the same as those in Qianyage. Suddenly, a sour feeling emerged in her heart.
Her mother must not know how the most noble man in the world loves her, or maybe she knows, so she is willing to sacrifice everything, and even let the man she loves think he is her
Abandoned him.
The room on the second floor was very large. There were many calligraphy and paintings hanging around the walls, which were written by her mother. After walking a few steps further inside, she stood blankly at the entrance. The room was filled with portraits of Ji Mengxian.
Either playing among the flowers or playing the piano in the pavilion, the expressions in each painting are lifelike, and the frown and smile between the eyebrows are particularly vivid.
Liuyun is also good at painting, but she never paints portraits. In her opinion, portrait painting is the most difficult. If you don't know a person very well, you can't draw the charm of that person, so she prefers to paint landscapes, birds singing, flowers fragrant, mountains and rocks.
Pines and cypresses are the easiest scenery to take pictures of.
A bright yellow figure stood in front of the portrait painting, with his hands behind his hands and his head slightly raised. She could only see his back, but she could imagine his expression, which must be filled with longing and sadness.
"Your Majesty..." Her voice was very soft, as if breaking the silence in the room.
"I failed her." The emperor's voice was very calm, so calm that it made people feel heartbroken, with a deep sense of regret and sadness that could not be ignored.
"She doesn't blame you." Liu Yun walked over and stood beside the emperor in the same posture with his hands behind his back, slightly raising his head to look at the woman in the painting.
She is an extremely beautiful woman. She is not the kind of woman who doesn’t eat the fireworks of the world, but a woman with cunning eyes like an elf. She is smart and generous, and combines publicity and restraint to form a unique temperament. Everyone says
I don't know what is special about her, but she is the kind of woman that people can't forget at first sight.
"She stayed away from the capital for me, suffered all kinds of torture for me, and left you with me... She spent her whole life for me..." Every time the gentle and jade-like emperor mentioned Ji Mengxian, others would be speechless.
I felt so distressed, but I didn't know whether it was the infatuated woman or the regretful man who felt distressed.
"Does the Emperor know my mother's wish?" The postures of the father and daughter are very similar. If someone looks over from the side, one can tell from their equally delicate profiles that they must be father and daughter.
"Wish?" This word finally caught Ling Emperor's attention. He tilted his head slightly and looked at Liuyun.
"The world is unified." Liu Yun still raised his head slightly to look at the painting and said calmly, "My mother goes to the temple to worship every year, hoping that the people will be prosperous and the country will be strong, and everyone will be safe and peaceful."
Liu Yun's words made Emperor Ling slightly startled, and also reminded him of the woman who argued with him in his memory. She respected Confucianism and insisted that the world is for the common good. Whenever he secretly hated himself for being weak and unable to reverse the situation,
At that time, she was always more determined than him. She insisted that only he was the future benevolent king of Ling Kingdom, and that he would be a wise king, so she would spare no effort to help him secure his position as crown prince, and even use her body as the cornerstone.
Let him ascend the throne.
"I never understood why my mother believed that one day we, Da Ling, would be able to unite the world. I didn't understand government affairs, and I didn't understand why she, a woman and a child, was always more concerned about the situation in the court and Da Ling than anyone else.
war. I once asked her, since she was unwilling to be a merchant woman, why did she marry away from Linyang?" Her tone was always light, but the eyes of the person beside her became more and more profound.
"How did she answer you?" Emperor Ling couldn't help but clenched his fists and blurted out the words of inquiry.
Liuyun turned his head, looked at his biological father, and smiled lightly at him: "Because of love."
Just three words, but the usually calm emperor's face suddenly turned pale. He pulled out an ugly smile and looked at the woman in the painting again, as if he saw her smiling at him.
Seeing him like this, Liu Yun also turned back to look at her mother who was smiling lightly in the painting. When she was young, she always thought that her mother married her father out of love, but she still didn't understand why her father and mother were so in love with each other.
There is always something strange that cannot be explained, and now I finally understand it.
Because the person I love is far away in the capital.
