Love Like The Galaxy.

Chapter 167

The Empress Dowager Xuan put on her clothes and stood up, resting her forehead with one hand, and said weakly: "Zhai, is Shirou still there? Alas, it seems that I can't wake up when I fall asleep. Don't act like this, help me up quickly... ..."

Zhai Li closed her lips, and helped the Queen Mother to the window, pointing at the figure under the opposite porch with dissatisfaction: "Well, I haven't left yet, and I don't know if the soup has dried up... Hey, isn't that Shaoshang? , why is she hiding in the corner..."

The inner courtyard of Yong'an Palace is a concave shape, with the main hall and main residence facing south at the bottom, but the Queen Mother has just moved to the east side with better ventilation these days. , looking at the window and seeing Huo Budo under the porch opposite, and at the same time also saw the girl huddled behind the corner, looking at the young man in front of the medicine stove with tears in her eyes, shy.

Standing in front of the window, the refreshing and warm wind softly hit his face with the unique scent of spring flowers and plants, the Empress Dowager Xuan smiled: "Young Shang has grown up, and she has taken too many detours, so I found it by myself. There are also a lot of sins... Well, there are also my 'credits' in them. Some things, I just don't think clearly, she is so impatient, it's better to take it slow. Come on, today's spring is so good, I want to go out for a walk... uh..." Before she could finish speaking

, she fell down softly, and Zhai Li was shocked and screamed in horror, and the shrill cry resounded inside. In the courtyard, the youth and girl opposite heard the sound and rushed over together.

...

The sensational case of 'Yuan Pei covering up an assassin' has finally come to an end.

Yuan Pei received the same punishment as Uncle Lou Yao, dismissed from his post and fined him, and reverted to his home and thought about it behind closed doors, but the difference was that before Yuan Pei left, the father and son were summoned by the emperor at the same time.

After seeing the emperor, the emperor first scolded Yuan Pei for being confused and having no rules and regulations for the important officials of the court, and he should be punished heavily; then the tone changed, the emperor expressed his understanding of Yuan Pei's affection for his righteous brother, if Huo Chong was also deceived by others. Wrong thing - although his wise and decisive as the righteous brother of the gods can never be like this, he will also have a hard time deciding.

Yuan Pei kept kowtow, expressing his remorse.

Yuan Shen: You have already said it all the time, so what else do other people say?

In fact, Yuan Pei didn't want to take Huo Buxuan's credit, but after listening to his son Yuan Shen's persuasion, 'If it is true, the Yuan family's crime is small, and maybe Huo Buxuan will be charged with 'bullying the king'. Just pressed down.

In front of the emperor, Yuan Pei tried to open his mouth several times to tell the truth, but the emperor kept the topic off the topic, so Yuan Shen vaguely suspected that the emperor knew everything.

The rest of Yuan's children who resigned basically stayed in their original positions, but Yuan Shen insisted on leaving from the Shangshutai, saying that he would go back to the scriptures and study again, in order to clarify the principles of doing things for others, and to better serve his father in the future.

The most difficult thing is the handling of the fifth percent - he was indeed deceived, but he did assassinate Uncle Weng Jun, and Uncle Weng was shot and killed because of him. If you let him go, the Weng family will not be able to get through, and if you kill him, it would be a pity.

The fifth percent is still tough, saying that he can be killed or scraped, and Ling Chi will cut him in half, and he will never frown. However, Old Man Ji saw that he was upright, brave and lacking in scheming, and he fell in love with talents, so he made an opinion of himself. .

He let the fifth percent of the flesh topless, carrying sharp and heavy thorns and branches, and went to the Weng family to plead guilty on a night when no one was there. A life, whether it is to impart a unique knowledge, or to serve as officials in the future, he will do his best to help.

Mrs. Weng has no opinion, but she thinks that this person deliberately chooses to come to the door when no one sees it, and has no desire to beg for mercy, which shows that she is upright.

Young Master Weng and the old master were very discerning, and thought that instead of killing this idiot, it would be better to keep a useful person, which would be of greater benefit to the family in the future. So Young Master Weng went up to the emperor the next day, saying that the enemy should be resolved rather than settled, and since the fifth percent was deceived by others, he was not the culprit, so why should he commit murder in vain.

This memorial is very beautifully written. It can distinguish right from wrong and be kind-hearted. From the emperor to the court and the public, they all express their appreciation to Weng Shao Gongzi, who is still in his weak years. It can be said that he has both fame and fortune.

In this way, no one expected that this aggressive case would end with such a tender ending.

Outside the palace, the wind and drizzle are mild, but the wind and rain inside the palace are miserable.

In the past, in order to let Shaoshang Bie Lao urge him to rest and eat, the Empress Dowager Xuan always joked that her deadline was approaching, but this time, the real deadline has come. Since that day, Empress Dowager Xuan has been in a coma for several days. Except for occasionally sucking soup in a daze, she can't eat anything else. She doesn't need to listen to the doctor's report with a bitter face. Shao Shang knew that this day was coming. .

During these days, the princes and princesses came and went, but Huo Budo came to Yong'an Palace to help whenever he had time. He was very distressed when he watched Shaoshang feed the Empress Dowager Xuan without stopping. The tired man lost a lot of weight. , but never blocked.

After being in a coma until the sixth day, the Queen Mother Xuan suddenly woke up, and she was conscious and smiling softly.

"I want to see Your Majesty, Shao Shang, help me to tell Cen Anzhi." She said this, Shao Shang's heart skipped a beat - is this a return to light?

Since he was abolished six years ago, although the emperor has seen Empress Dowager Xuan from a distance, he has never entered the Yongan Palace. Hearing the news, he immediately knew that the situation was not good, and he hurried over despite the fact that he was still discussing political affairs.

Stepping into the inner bed, the emperor could not help but feel sad when he saw that the face of the Queen Mother Xuan was slumped and her sallow illness was weak. He sat beside the couch and said in a low voice, "If you have anything else to worry about, tell me, I will always do it for you."

Empress Dowager Xuan smiled and said, "I have lived for others all my life, and I have followed my path for the first half of my life. My mother and uncle have been taking care of my younger brother and children for the rest of my life. At this time, it would be too boring to speak for others

. .

Shao Shang walked away silently, and quietly retreated behind the screen. Who would have thought that when Empress Yue was standing there, her eyes were red, and she didn't dare to go out.

The Empress Dowager Xuan said: "When I was a child, I read, I read that the first emperor was traveling one day, the car covers were gathered, the horses were strong, the emperor Gao and the king of Chu met, and they were envious of the style. One said, 'This is what a man should be', and the other said, 'He can be replaced by him. ', sigh, this is someone who was born to compete for the world - but I know that His Majesty is not like this, His Majesty never envy the power of others." The

emperor burst into tears and laughed: "I have been told by my neighbors since I was a child. No ambition, only thinking about one-third of an acre of land at the door."

The Empress Dowager Xuan smiled and shook her head: "Your Majesty is not without ambition, but is content with the ordinary. There are two kinds of great powers in this world, one is like Emperor Gao, Chu Bawang, who is ambitious and wants to change the world, and another, such as Your Majesty, although Wen Tao and martial arts are unrivaled, they have no intention to compete in the world."

"I have been by Your Majesty's side for decades, and I know that in Your Majesty's heart is still the upright young man who loves farming and reading. If it weren't for the chaos in the world, If it weren't for His Majesty's elder brother who insisted on raising the flag, I know that His Majesty is willing to live in the countryside all his life, and then marry his sister Yue, have a few Ning Xiner, and live and rest at the sunrise, and it will be a dull life." The

emperor . With tears in her eyes, she tightly held Empress Dowager Xuan's hand: "Those who know me, God knows."

Empress Dowager Xuan stretched out her withered hand and gently stroked the emperor's cheek: "Your Majesty, you are not sorry for me, you I will never be able to repay me in my life. I dare not rebel against my uncle. I am fortunate to have met such a kind, gentle and handsome young hero, otherwise I would be a potbellied, violent and despicable person, and I am afraid that I would have married too."

"Your Majesty , I am fortunate to meet you in this life."

"God knows... I, I..." The emperor cried and fell in front of Queen Xuan's knees.

The Empress Dowager Xuan raised the emperor with difficulty and looked at each other: "Your Majesty, in this life, you are worthy of the country, the society, the people, the people, and even me. Only Sister Yue, you have failed her." The

emperor smiled with tears: " Didn't you say that you don't talk about other people today, or you can't help it?"

"I have been with sister Yue for decades, and she can't be regarded as someone else." Empress Dowager Xuan smiled helplessly, raised her head to face the emperor, Seriously, "Your Majesty, as far as I am concerned, whether it was Your Majesty or not, my uncle asked me to marry, and I will eventually marry, but the Yue sister is different. It doesn't matter if Your Majesty is an emperor, a farmer, a prosperous person or a pastoral song. The person she wants to marry is your Majesty."

Behind the screen, Shao Shang looked sideways, Empress Yue covered her mouth tightly with Jinpa, and tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Your Majesty has given up a lot for the peace of the world, so why is it not for Younger Sister Yue?" The Queen Mother Xuan continued, "I can't just because she is stubborn, straightforward and carefree, Your Majesty thinks that she will not take her to heart and has never been heartbroken. I know that the tears she shed in secret are only worse than mine." The

emperor was choked up, but nodded vigorously.

The Empress Dowager Xuan said weakly: "In the days to come, Your Majesty will have a good relationship with Sister Yue, as close as you were when you were still in the countryside, as if I had never been here..."

Empress Yue couldn't bear it any longer, like a gust of wind. Running out from behind the screen, weeping bitterly, he threw himself before Empress Dowager Xuan collapsed.

The Empress Dowager Xuan stroked Empress Yue's hair and said softly, "I was going to invite you, but you came by yourself, so you can save Shaoshang for another trip....Your Majesty, ask me to talk to Sister Yue. "The

emperor nodded and walked out unsteadily.

Empress Yue raised her head with tears on her face: "Sister, don't worry, as long as I am here, I will keep the Xuan family safe."

"Who is counting on you." I'm very relieved that you can do it. Now I have to say something else." She took a deep breath and said word by word, "A Heng, I never doubted you when King Donghai was assassinated when he was nineteen years old.

" Looking at her: "I know. When Xining mourned the death of the king, I never doubted you." The

two looked at each other for a long time, smiling frankly at the same time.

Empress Yue wiped away her tears and smiled and said, "I know what you are, so I gave all the children to you regardless of the arrogance." The

Queen Mother Xuan said, "I also know that you have never suspected me, so you are not afraid of others. Faced with rumors and rumors, dare to let go and investigate the palace thoroughly and find out the sneaky people who lurked in the past."

"Sister Shengan..." Empress Yue put her face into the thin palm of the Empress Dowager Xuan.

Empress Dowager Xuan patted her lightly with the other hand: "I know, I know. If you weren't you, I wasn't me, if you and I were just little sisters that I usually know, it would be great..."

The two of them have very different temperaments and opposite positions, but they secretly admire each other and have never been suspicious for decades. After talking so much, the Empress Dowager Xuan was

obviously very tired. She leaned on the hidden sac and said with difficulty: "Shao Shang, where are you, come here!"

I am very sad.

Shao Shang hurried out from behind the screen and knelt down in front of the couch: "Niangniang, I'm here, you order it."

"Young Shang, play a song, I want to hear you play the flute. Let Niangniang Yue also listen, yes. Now, let Your Majesty and the children come in too..." The Empress Dowager Xuan was out of breath.

The Empress Yue was impatient, and without waiting for the young merchant to go out to report, she ran out to pull the emperor in, followed by the silent princes and princesses, and Huo Budo also followed.

Shao Shang adjusted the piccolo a few times and played it slowly - the keynote was the "Bamboo Branch Melody" that Mrs. Sang taught her back then, but the second half was re-edited by Shao Shang. The people who listened were amazed.

The Empress Dowager Xuan stared at the void and whispered like a gossamer: "...In fact, my father also likes to play the flute, but he can't play it well. Your Majesty, my body is going to be buried in the imperial tomb, can you allow me to cut it off? The next bundle of hair was burned to ashes by Shao Shang, brought back to the hillside where I lived in seclusion with my father when I was young, and sprinkled out with the wind. I envy my father's free-spirited days since I was a child, but I have never been free in my life. Everything is up to people."

"I hope that in the next life, I will have a peaceful and prosperous world, so that I will be free from the sufferings of ups and downs. I hope that my parents in the next life will be healthy and longevity, so that I will be free from the suffering of sorrow. I hope that in the next life I will be blessed with youth. Ode to the Mountains...Sister Yue, is my wish too greedy?"

"Zikun, don't be wary and fearful all the time, what about honor and disgrace, be open-minded and live for a long time. The king of Huai'an will take care of the old man. He's grown up now, I'm very pleased... Zisheng, I don't blame you, you're a good boy, you've suffered a lot, you've always been very filial to me, and you've been very good to the King of the East Sea."

"Shao Shang, you are being punished." I've been dragging it down for many years, and finally I'll bother you to run again..."

The woman on the bed ended her life with the melodious and low sound of the flute. The doctor retrieved the fluff that had been tested on the nose of the Queen Mother Xuan, and knelt in front of the emperor to report the result. The emperor collapsed and sat down, tearful, and the Empress Yue was crying silently beside her.

The surrounding princes and princesses and the palace maids and eunuchs cried at the same time, making a loud noise.

Shaoshang stumbled out of the inner bed, like a lost child, wandering about for the purpose of walking.

In the eyes of many people, the Queen Mother Xuan is not a good elder. She complains about herself, indulges in the past and neglects to discipline her children, but for Shaoshang, what she wants is such irrational protection and unreasonable trust.

This is the coddling she has longed for and never got.

From now on, there will never be that gentle voice to mend her barren and rough childhood, and she will be tolerantly caged in her sleeves, who is full of shortcomings, and no one will unconditionally shield her from the wind and rain.

From now on, she must support herself.

Finally, Huo Budo found the girl squatting on the ground under a corner, she was howling silently. His heart was sour - she hated crying in front of people the most, and this habit has not changed to this day.
