"No?" Zhang Guifei laughed angrily, "How could you have such childish thoughts? If it were you in his place, how would you treat him? Are you willing to let such a mortal enemy go?"
"I can't!" King Zhao still shook his head, "But he is not a son! The prince's magnanimity and magnanimity cannot be compared to that of a son! He..."
"Crazy! You are really crazy!" Concubine Zhang jumped up with anger again. Seeing this, Princess Zhao quickly pinched King Zhao again and said angrily: "What are you talking about, Lord? Do you really want to make your mother and concubine mad to death?" ? The mother-in-law has just agreed and allows you to act with caution! What else do you want?"
After saying that, she kept winking at him.
King Zhao sighed, and finally compromised: "Don't worry, mother and concubine, I know that the lives of the Zhang family depend on me, and I will try to protect them!"
"That's pretty much it!" Concubine Zhang gave him a look, then sat back down. She was about to say something else, but her chest felt cramping. She knew it was an old problem, so she hurriedly asked the maid next to her to get the Jiuxin Pill and take it.
When King Zhao saw that her face was purple and ugly, and she was obviously having trouble breathing, he didn't dare to be angry with her anymore. He gave her a few words to coax her, and sent a palace servant to take care of her for a nap, while the couple quietly walked out of the room.
It was already noon, the sun was bright and dazzling, the autumn wind passed by, shaking the trees golden, and the sky was clear and blue. It was a rare good weather.
Looking at the autumn scene, King Zhao thought of Yuncheng, who was suffering from life and death a few days ago, and breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had never been in real danger, he still felt like he was surviving the disaster.
Therefore, I want to maintain this peace and beauty more and more in my heart.
Princess Zhao tilted her head to look at him. After a while, she suddenly smiled!
She has a small round face, her eyes are also round, and the two whirlpools at the corners of her mouth are also round when she smiles, and her pretty nose is slightly wrinkled and slightly raised, making her look even sweeter and more adorable.
Prince Zhao had a deep relationship with her, and they had not seen each other for several days. When he saw her smiling cutely, his heart moved, and he stretched out his fingers to gently pinch her pink cheeks, and said with a smile: "What are you laughing at?"
"Laughing at the way you look in front of my mother..." Princess Zhao gently touched his hand with her forehead, giggling non-stop, "You are the most lonely and courageous I have ever seen!"
"Guyong?" King Zhao laughed, "Why did you think of using this word?"
"Because you were always influenced by others in the past..." Princess Zhao said, "Sometimes it was your mother and concubine, sometimes it was your maternal uncle, or the late emperor. You were held hostage and taught by them, and you were at a loss all day long. What a contradiction! In fact, you don’t like fighting for power at all, you just want to do some practical things down-to-earth, but in the end, you didn’t accomplish anything that came out of your heart, but you did one thing after another against your will..."
When she said this, she suddenly sighed, "Your Majesty, at that time, I saw you becoming more and more taciturn, and I was really worried for you!"
King Zhao recalled the past and laughed at himself: "Yes! I always don't know what I should do, and I am always pushed away by others! Speaking of which, I am really a coward!"
"That's not the case!" Princess Zhao smiled and shook her head, "I know that your husband is not a coward. It's just that you are gentle and kind by nature, and you can't do such cruel things. However, you were forced and seduced by the late emperor, and you became a knife to stab the prince. Knife! I can't help it, and the pain is caused by this! After knowing the truth, my husband has never been more relaxed!"
"But the day I was really relaxed was in this Yuncheng!" King Zhao held her hand and his eyes fell on the golden blue river in the distance. "From the moment he fell into the water, my heart was set." ! Ah Ying..."
He turned to look at Princess Zhao, "No matter what happens to my mother-in-law and the Zhang family, I will never attack the prince! If someone dares to harm him, I will definitely be the first to stand up and protect him! No, to be precise, I Not to protect him..."
"You want to protect someone who can protect the people of Great Xiao! Right?" Princess Zhao looked at him with a smile like a flower of interpretation.
King Zhao nodded vigorously: "Do you think I am naive and stupid because of this?"
"No way!" Princess Zhao put her arms around his neck and kissed him lightly on the face, "My husband is the most kind, pure and smart person in the world! Those who think he is stupid are the most stupid people in the world. What a fool!"
"You are the only one who would praise me so disgustingly!" Princess Zhao chuckled and held her in her arms, "It's a pity that I'm neither good nor pure, I'm just a weak person! In fact, I said this, but in my heart I still I am very worried, and for a moment I thought that only if he died would we be able to sleep peacefully, but at the same time I prayed that he could live and live well, so that all the people of Xiaoxiao could live well!"
"Yes!" Princess Zhao hugged him tightly, "If God knows, he will definitely fulfill your sincere heart!"
…
Xiao Lin had a dream, a long dream that made him confused.
He seemed to have dreamed his whole life!
From his birth, to becoming famous at a young age, to fighting here and there, regaining the lost territory, and then being stabbed in the back by his biological father, his legs were disabled, his face was disfigured, and he lost everything. He struggled to resist, tried his best, and finally fought for a chance to survive. , but that glimmer of hope was cut off by another close relative.
In the end, he died under random knives and was chopped into pieces, with no bones left.
No, it can't be completely gone. Although the flesh and blood are broken, the bones are still there. However, his opponent refused to let go of even his remaining bones. From then on, he sank into the dark basement, day after day. After enduring the cruel torture before his death, every time he thought his soul was gone, there would always be a sweet and cheerful voice calling him: "Your Highness! Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
She screamed so persistently, over and over again, as if summoning spirits.
He opened his eyes and suddenly realized that he was back in Yuncheng.
However, this Yuncheng was not the Yuncheng when he sank in the Bihe River, and the little girl who called him Your Highness was not what A Li looked like in his memory.
She was wearing a half-worn crimson robe that had turned white after washing, her hair was disheveled, and she acted timidly. She didn't look like a girl at all, more like a young man.
When she first came to him, she always stared at him with a pair of clear black and white eyes, as if she had seen something strange, and her small mouth was half-opened, looking silly.
However, this silly little girl was very smart and calm when she was treating patients, so people had to treat her differently.
Xiao Lin was attracted by this silly and smart little girl. He put all the tragic things aside for a while and only took this girl to save people in Yuncheng, listening to her cry, listen to her laugh, listen to her troubles, listen to her Those silly words made her throw her body into the potion and soak it in the potion. After soaking for an unknown amount of time, he was suddenly able to stand up.
The moment he stood up, his heart was like a sail filled with wind, full of courage and hope. The little girl was also jumping for joy, and the laughter like silver bells rang through the sky that spring day, and also filled his heart. All the haze has been driven away!
His eyes turned around for some reason, and he couldn't see the little girl in front of him, but he saw himself.
