Seeing the deeply distressed look between his eyebrows, Luo Changan smiled and smoothed his frown, "It's just a show, the purpose is to provoke Bai Ze to speak. Emperor, don't worry so much."
Di Qian'ao clutched the lapel of his heart with his hands, and the blood gradually drained from his lips, "There is a good idea. The day before yesterday, I heard you tell He'er the story of the First Emperor being a hostage and the mother and son being separated for nine years. It really touched my heart. Why not
Let's take this as an opportunity to inspire our uncle to speak out."
Luo Changan thought for a moment, "How to proceed?"
Di Qianao pinched her chin, smiled slightly and said: "It's better to hit the sun than to choose another day, let's start now."
Luo Changan's face turned pale, "It's quiet at night, and the children have all fallen asleep."
Di Qianao stood up slowly and said in a deep voice: "Queen, Dadongming is afraid that his country will be destroyed."
Luo Changan found it hard to tell the truth from the fake. Has the emperor already started acting? She smiled at first and couldn't get into the drama, but looking at the emperor's cold eyes, her smile gradually faded, and she fell into doubt. She said softly
: "Emperor..."
"Foreign countries are invading with the intention of seeking our territory. Dadongming's troops are exhausted from the war and are in urgent need of foreign aid." Di Qianao said slowly, "I invite the Yan State to form an alliance. I promise to exchange the prince as a hostage for ten years.
Years of fighting against the enemy together."
Luo Changan's heart palpitated, "Emperor, are you acting? Your expression is so real, I'm a little scared."
"Here comes." Di Qianao said in a deep voice: "Wake up the prince and prepare to rush to Dayan with the Yan State envoy."
With that said, Haiyin led the Jin Yiwei into the palace. Suddenly, the Changchun Palace was filled with people and everyone woke up.
Bai Ze rushed into the hall, hid behind a pillar and looked at his pale sister sitting on the edge of the bed. She looked very frightened. I wanted to protect her.
With red eyes, Haiyin picked up the sleeping Di Jinhe and said, "Prince, let's get on our way."
Di Jinhe woke up in a daze. Not knowing what had happened, he asked in confusion: "Eunuch Hai, where are you taking me? Where is my mother?"
The little guy looked at the room full of royal guards and looked for his mother in the crowd.
"He'er!" Luo Changan couldn't tell the truth from the false, but the moment the child was picked up by Hai Yin from the bed, her whole heart was broken, "Mother is here, don't be afraid."
As Luo Changan said this, she went to hold her son in her arms, but Di Qianao held her wrist, "Queen, as the mother of the country, you must put the justice of the world first, and you must not deviate from the justice because of personal feelings.
"
Luo Changan looked back at Di Qianao, his heart started to jump nervously, and he said with a pale face: "Let's give it up for today, there is no need to play the emperor. Let's think of other ways."
Emperor Qianao pulled her in front of him, restrained her waist, and then ordered Hai Yin: "Send the prince to the envoy of the State of Yan."
Emperor Jinhe didn't know what happened. His little heart was filled with fear and he immediately started crying, "Father, do you want He'er anymore? Father, do you want He'er anymore?"
When Luo Changan heard his son's cry, he was already angry, "Emperor, let me go! I said, let's give up today! No more acting, He'er is already frightened!"
Emperor Qianao said to Haiyin in a deep voice: "He is my prince, and he is destined to serve the country! Take him away."
Luo Changan shouted in panic: "He'er!"
Haiyin hugged Di Jinhe and walked out the door.
Bai Ze felt great grief in his heart. His sister was crying. I don't want my sister to cry. I want to protect my sister!
"Mother, He'er don't leave mother, I want mother." Di Jinhe struggled hard in Haiyin's arms and cried loudly: "Father doesn't want me anymore. Didn't father say that every day?"
Are you with He'er?"
Luo Changan immediately went crazy and tried hard to break free from Di Qianao's shackles, "Let me go!"
Emperor Qian Ao's cheeks were cold and his lips were as white as paper, "Queen, as the mother of the country, I expect more from you than just being in charge of the harem. I hope that you can be a mother to the world, love your people first, and then love your youngest son. The country is broken.
No, you and I will be sinners forever!"
"Emperor, what's going on? I don't want my mother's love for the world, I want my son!" Luo Changan was so anxious that he burst into tears, "He'er! If you don't cry for He'er, my mother wants you, my mother wants you."
Bai Ze, who had been hiding silently behind the pillar, saw his sister sobbing, and a strong desire for protection arose in his heart. He rushed to Di Qian'ao and tried his best to help his sister escape from Di Qian'ao's hands. In desperation, he blurted out:
Debut: "Let go...my sister!"
Luo Changan was shocked when he heard the sound, and Ze'er... spoke.
Suddenly, the restraint on Luo Changan's waist loosened, and Di Qianao released her.
Haiyin also placed Emperor Jinhe on the ground at this time.
"Mother! Father!" Di Jinhe rushed over, threw himself into his mother's arms, and held his father's hand. "What happened just now? Why did you suddenly take He'er away?"
Di Qianao touched Di Jinhe's bun and said, "My father and mother are playing together. You must be scared. It's okay."
Emperor Jinhe threw himself into his father's arms, his little body trembling, "If my father is too tired from state affairs, and He'er is willing to share his worries, please don't send He'er away, okay?"
Luo Changan held Bai Ze and Di Jinhe in his arms at the same time, "Ze'er, He'er. It's okay, it's okay."
Once Bai Ze spoke, there was no obstacle and he just called out, "Sister, sister..."
Luo Changan was heartbroken.
After both Di Jinhe and Bai Ze were calmed down and everything settled down, Luo Changan still felt that he still had lingering fears.
Di Qianao held her in his arms, and after just a slight try, he was so heartbroken. If he really wanted to leave, he would have killed her, "Don't cry anymore. After that, with me here, how could Dadongming
The country will be destroyed, but I just said it casually."
Luo Changan swallowed even more: "I really thought that the emperor wanted to send He'er to Yan State as a hostage."
"It's a lie. It's just for show." Di Qian'ao held her and the child in his arms and whispered, "You know, to provoke Baize to talk."
Luo Changan felt relieved and just said angrily: "You are acting, but it is too real. I thought you really wanted to send your child to a foreign country to be an invalid."
Di Qianao touched her head and said nothing more. He just said to Bai Ze, "You are very brave. You must always protect your sister."
Bai Ze nodded heavily, "Yes. Emperor."
***
Since Bai Ze could speak, Luo Changan felt relieved, and all the concubines in the harem had become more peaceful. Luo Changan felt that life was much smoother.
But in recent days, the atmosphere in the front hall seems to be under high pressure, and even the harem can feel the tense atmosphere.
That day, Aunt Mei came in with tea and handed over a bowl of decoction, "Mother, drink it, it is a contraceptive medicine in advance."
Luo Changan looked at the soup. In the past, the emperor ordered her to drink the fertility soup every day, but now he asked her to start drinking this contraceptive soup. She didn't want to continue giving birth to children for him without restrictions, but she wanted to drink this thing.
It was uncomfortable and he didn't explain anything.
She occasionally thought that maybe she felt sorry for her and didn't want her to suffer the pain of childbirth again.
But after all, she had never spoken to him, so she was a little hung up. This idea was not justified.
Aunt Mei sighed, "The Emperor hasn't been here for a month and a half. Are you and the Emperor unhappy?"
Luo Changan shook his head, "No, everything is fine. Maybe he is busy."
"The more burdensome the state affairs are, the more we need to relieve stress." Aunt Mei reminded, "If I don't come to you, I will go somewhere else. You spend all day staring at the children's homework, the Queen Mother's body, the rules of the harem, when to go
Keep an eye on the emperor? The palace is too big and the news is very limited."
"Why do I think there is something wrong with your words?" Luo Changan frowned.
Aunt Mei sighed, "A few months ago, the emperor went out for hunting. He met Nalanjiao, the youngest daughter of the minister of Dali Temple, on the road. He said that the emperor's carriage tore the girl's sleeve, exposing a part of her wrist. The emperor took off his robe.
I gave it to someone else, and the two have become close in recent days. Miss Nalan is only sixteen years old this year, ten years younger than you."
