Chapter 876: Magnolia blossoms in the courtyard

An unknown fire surged in Tantai Hanze's heart. He knew he shouldn't blame the emperor, but he just couldn't control himself.

Originally, the ministers who supported the East Palace could still maintain their superficial obedience, especially Wei Xiangguo and the old East Palace ministers. However, as soon as the emperor's brother came back, they all became red-eyed and immediately ran to the East Palace to express their opinions.

loyalty.

I'm afraid I want to pull him off the throne immediately so that he can be returned to the East Palace.

But he is still sitting on this throne and is not dead yet!

He is really inferior to the imperial brother in everything...

"You, tell me, am I inferior to the imperial brother in everything? Is it possible that I will never surpass the imperial brother's status in the hearts of my subjects!" Tantai Hanze suddenly pointed at the old eunuch and asked fiercely.

That gloomy expression showed no trace of the innocent and free-spirited young man from the royal family in the past.

This question frightened Li Xian so much that he fell to his knees, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead in an instant. He quickly replied: "Why should the emperor belittle oneself? The emperor is the most powerful person in the world. Naturally, no one can compare with him. The prince can only

He will be the prince."

Tantai Hanze snorted, "Nine-five-year-old, that is to say, without this throne, I am nothing, right?"

"This is not what I mean!" Li Xian's whole body was pressed to the ground.

"enough"

In the gorgeous and cold hall, even the sound of the wind blowing can be clearly heard.

Tantai Hanze's eyes slowly glanced at Pang Ce, "Brother Huang, did you see them and did you say anything?"

"The prince has not received any ministers." Pang Ce quickly handed over his hand and replied truthfully, "From yesterday to now, he has been staying in the East Palace behind closed doors. He doesn't seem to have any intention of meeting the courtiers."

Tantai Hanze slowly fell silent.

He had already said that he was willing to abdicate, so why did he have to make it so embarrassing? Was he trying to trick him on purpose?

Why don't you come back, but why come back at this time? When you have made Xilan a mess, he comes with the peace documents and comes as a savior. Look, only he, Tantai Yunlang, can save Xilan from the dire straits.

What a wise man, what a powerful thunderous skill...

And even if he is sitting in the ninth-five supreme position, he is still nothing!

Brother Emperor, Brother Emperor, do you really not want this throne, or are you just pretending to be pushed by other people's hands so that you can stay out of the matter and want to be a good person on both sides? He really can't see clearly.

They say you can see far by climbing high, but now he realizes that the higher you sit, the clearer your vision may not be.

Tantai Hanze raised his hand to pinch the bridge of his nose. The more he thought about it, the more he felt a headache. He murmured to himself in an inaudible voice, "No, how can I doubt the emperor's brother? The emperor is the best to me."

He wouldn't do that."

Li Xian knelt on the ground, still unable to control his shaking.

Just a year ago, he looked at their emperor with the eyes of caring for his children. But after just a short time, he could hardly guess the emperor's heart. The uncertain emperor in front of him was even more heart-wrenching.

shock.

"Get out, all get out, no one is allowed to disturb me, just leave me alone." Tantai Hanze was extremely tired.

Pang Ce and Li Xian did not dare to say anything and quickly left.

But not long after the two people walked out of the main hall, a figure slowly walked into the Qianqing Hall.

The people in the palace knelt down one after another, and before they could say anything, they silently backed away at her signal.

Tantai Hanze pressed his forehead with both hands and buried his head on the dragon table. When he heard the footsteps, he said irritably, "Didn't I say that no one is allowed to disturb..." xdw8

When he raised his head and saw the person coming, he was slightly stunned and stopped scolding him.

At the same time, the East Palace also welcomed "guests".

And this person, in the current Xilan Palace, is more majestic than the emperor. No one dares to stop him. Wherever he passes, the palace people kneel on the ground, even the guards guarding outside the East Palace are no exception. They dare not stop him.

Say a word.

The stunningly beautiful woman in a red palace dress walked unimpeded into the courtyard wall of the East Palace. With her majestic and expressionless face, those who didn't know it thought she was here to challenge her.

But the further she walked into the East Palace, the slower Empress Dowager Xiao's pace became.

Her expression gradually became stiff and startled along with the snow-white flowers blooming there.

The moment the back figure under the moonlight came into view, Queen Mother Xiao's eyes suddenly tranced.

At this moment, she didn't know whether she saw the person who had not slept for a long time, or who she was.

They are so similar...

Oh, of course, they are biological father and son after all.

"You are finally here." Tantai Yunlang was sitting alone in the courtyard drinking tea. Hearing the noise, he poured himself a cup without looking back, "The Queen Mother."

The man's calm voice suddenly interrupted Queen Mother Xiao's thoughts, and the sound of tea flowing made her eardrums ache inexplicably. Her confused expression instantly calmed down, and she gently raised her hand and waved away all the palace people around her.

Tantai Yunlang did not turn around, but sat upright under the tree with his tall body.

"When I was five years old, I moved from the prince's residence to the East Palace. That night, my father was the only one who came to accompany me. I asked my father why my mother didn't come again, but my father didn't reply to me. He only pointed at this open space in the courtyard.

He said, if this empty area looks deserted, we should plant magnolias in it."

Queen Mother Xiao's heart suddenly twitched.

At this time of year, the magnolias in the East Palace are in bloom.

Empress Dowager Xiao never knew that this place she had never set foot on was full of her favorite flowers and her eyes were pure white. Perhaps she had seen too much blood on the battlefield, so she just loved such pure white flowers.

I have a special liking for flawless flowers.

But was this a coincidence, or did the person she had been fighting with her all her life do this on purpose?

If it was done on purpose, what was the meaning?

Oh, now that everyone is gone and their grudges have been settled, what's the use of thinking about them anymore.

"I later found out that it was your favorite flower, just like the magnolia flowers blooming all over the courtyard outside Qianqing Hall. Maybe my father thought that you just didn't want to come to see me, and you would always want to come to see me at some point.

The magnolia flowers here will always remind me...of my father."

"But the magnolia blossoms season after season, my father is still alone, and so am I."

"I thought I didn't take good care of them, but later, I found that I was wrong again. It turned out that my father meant to let these magnolias take their place, accompany me, and fill the corner that will always be missing..."

The man's voice was the simplest and most straightforward, as if he was saying something insignificant.

But for some reason, Empress Dowager Xiao, who always claimed to have a heart of stone, suddenly had a crack in a corner of her heart, which was so painful.

Her noble and flawless face instantly became paler than the blooming magnolia.

"Yunlang..."

Her children, her Xiaolang...

Tantai Yunlang slowly turned around, his usually sunny and handsome face as cold as frost.
