Three hundred and twentieth chapters husband and wife
The murderous intention flashed through the Sixth Princess's heart, but was quickly suppressed by reason.
Emperor Jianwen had no idea that he was on the verge of life and death. He smiled to himself and asked, "Anping, why don't you say anything? Do you not like guessing lantern riddles?"
The Sixth Princess silently glanced at Emperor Jianwen: "Well, I don't like it."
The Sixth Princess is very good at Mathematics, but she is weak in all three subjects of Rites and Music. Especially the Four Books are bleak.
In last year's annual exam, all the princes passed the first-class exam, but the sixth princess was the only one who failed to get the second-class grade due to her poor performance in the four books. Most of the lantern riddles were crossword puzzles and poems, so no wonder the sixth princess wasn't interested.
Fortunately, Emperor Jianwen was quite indulgent towards his daughter and didn't take it personally at all. He wasn't surprised when he saw the sixth princess's lack of interest and just laughed it off.
Seeing a lotus lantern, Emperor Jianwen took it down himself and said enthusiastically: "Your mother-in-law has a lotus character in her maiden name, and she also likes lotus flowers the most. I will bring this lotus lantern back. She must like it very much."
"
At this moment, Emperor Jianwen's eyes shone with tenderness, and his affection for Empress Yu was undoubtedly sincere.
Wouldn’t it be nice for a couple to love each other until they grow old?
Why do we still admit so many women into the palace?
Why covet a little girl who looks like the young Empress Yu?
Does he know how deeply having such thoughts hurt Empress Yu?
The Sixth Princess took another look at Emperor Jianwen who was beaming with joy, and silently lit the candle for him in her heart.
…
Emperor Jianwen naturally didn't know what the Sixth Princess was thinking about.
The majestic Emperor Qi personally carried the lotus lantern back to the pavilion.
Under the envious and hateful eyes of all the concubines, Emperor Jianwen sent the lotus lantern to Queen Yu: "Lian Niang, this lotus lantern is for you."
The lotus lanterns were made very delicately, and the candlelight shone through dimly. Emperor Jianwen's handsome face seemed to shine with luster.
Yuan Zhong, the young man who had attracted her heart when she was young, seemed to have returned at this moment.
The moment of trance quickly dissipated.
Empress Yu pursed her lips and smiled, showing joy at the right time: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I like this lotus lamp very much. From now on, I will hang this lamp in the Jiaofang Hall. When I see this lamp, I feel like I have seen it.
emperor."
Emperor Jianwen was obviously pleased by these words and smiled heartily: "That's not necessary. If you want to see me, you can send a message to me at any time. I will just go to Jiaofang Palace. Why bother seeing things and missing people."
Empress Yu had a smile in her eyes and a hint of anger in her mouth: "In front of the juniors, the emperor should speak more seriously."
Emperor Jianwen laughed heartily.
The concubines had no choice but to cheer and laughed stiffly together.
All the girls looked at it, each feeling envious and yearning for it.
Everyone knows about the deep love between emperor and empress. Seeing it with one's own eyes today is indeed better than the rumors.
As a woman, the greatest blessing in life is to meet her husband. How lucky would she be if she could be like Empress Yu and marry a man who loves her deeply and is noble and noble like no one else?
…
In the eyes of others, she is the luckiest and happiest woman in the world.
However, after being married for many years, who knows what the warmth and coldness are like?
Late at night, there was silence in the palace, and everyone had fallen asleep. In the bedroom of Jiaofang Hall, Emperor Jianwen had also fallen asleep. Queen Yu lay quietly on the phoenix couch and slowly opened her eyes.
The lotus lamp was hung in the corner of the bedroom, with dim candlelight, emitting a soft light.
Queen Yu stared at the lotus lantern, and a distant scene suddenly flashed through her mind.
"Lian Niang, this is the lotus lantern I made for you with my own hands."
The handsome young man affectionately held the handmade lotus lantern and gave it to his fiancée, who had already made a marriage decision: "In a few months, I will marry you."
"Lian Niang, I swear to God that I will only fall in love with you in this life, and I will never leave you until I grow old."
One pair for life people.
The sincere promise I made when I was young gradually turned pale after getting married and giving birth to Changping for several years with nothing to show for it.
He is the emperor and needs a prince!
This reason was enough to justify betraying the deep love of the past... For Emperor Jianwen, who persisted for several years before accepting a concubine, this was not even a betrayal, but a proof of deep love.
Everyone was praising Emperor Jianwen for his undying love, and all the women were envious of her enduring favor. Only she was left desolate and sad.
What's even more sad is that there is no one to complain about this pain.
Even to her close friend Gu Xianzhi, she didn't want to mention the sourness and sadness she felt.
All the forbearance and pain came to a head tonight.
When Emperor Jianwen's thoughtful gaze passed over Xie Mingxi, it seemed as if something huge collapsed in her heart and shattered into pieces.
"Lian Niang," Emperor Jianwen didn't know what sweet dream he was having. He suddenly murmured, and a smile appeared on his face where he was having a good dream: "Lian Niang."
Queen Yu looked at the sleeping emperor intently, stretched out her hand, and slowly placed it on Emperor Jianwen's neck. After a long time, she took it back again.
…
Emperor Jianwen had no idea about this.
He dreamed of the good times of his youth.
At that time, Yu Lianniang was admitted to Songzhu Academy with the first place. As a youngster, Yu Lianniang was handsome, heroic, and full of knowledge.
As the prince of the East Palace, he felt a little dissatisfied when he saw such an outstanding classmate. He took the initiative to apply to his wife to sit at the same table with her.
He had to compete with her in every course including Rites, Music, Books, Shooting, Yushu, and the Six Arts of the Gentleman.
However, she never gave him half a point. Except for archery, which was slightly weaker, she was better than him in every other course. Every time she took the monthly and annual exams, she was the most glorious first place, and he was the second place full of frustration.
As the prince of the East Palace, he was quite tolerant and magnanimous. He simply took the initiative to reconcile with her and became good friends.
Everything in the world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers.
He is the prince, and will be the emperor of Qi in the future. No matter how outstanding and outstanding a person is, he must surrender to him and be used by him.
It wasn't until later that her true identity was revealed to him that he was shocked to realize that he had already been deeply in love with her without knowing it.
"Lian Niang, it turns out you are a woman." He hugged her frightened and pale face tightly with ecstasy. His heart beat so fast that it seemed to burst out of his chest: "Lian Niang, you must not know how happy I am now.
.”
He whispered in her ear over and over again.
The girl's body, trembling with fear, gradually calmed down in his hot and fiery embrace.
She raised her head in confusion, like a panicked little animal caught in a net. Her voice lost the confidence and calmness of the past, and she was weak and helpless: "Your Highness, do you really not blame me for concealing my identity and deliberately deceiving you?"
He bent his head and pressed a burning kiss on her soft, cool lips. Then, he whispered hoarsely on her lips: "How could I blame you?"
"Lianniang, you don't know how lucky and happy I am."
"I want to marry you. From now on, we will be together day and night, forever."
