He walked out slowly and stood in front of the corridor, looking into the distance. But in fact, from this position, all he could see was the towering corners of the palace.
No matter how far away you are, you can't see anything, as if you are locked up here and can only look up at this side of the sky.
He made a decree that Aunt Lan and Aunt Qi should be buried for the queen.
It was too lonely for her to go on the road alone. If two people she knew well accompanied her, she would not be afraid.
When she entered the palace for the first time, she had to have the two of them accompany her.
After receiving the order, Aunt Lan and Aunt Qi had a look of relief on their faces, and their grief was gone.
This is what they want to do. Even if there is no will, they will accompany the queen.
The two knelt down with solemn expressions, "Thank you Lord for your kindness!"
Eunuch Qing supported the emperor and said softly: "Your Majesty, the empress said something to the servants last night, hoping that the two of them can grow old naturally."
The emperor's eyes are empty and he will die naturally?
Nangong Yitian strode out and said, "Father, I have something to say and want to talk to my father privately."
The emperor looked at him, his once most beloved son, who was once proud of him, but now his eyes were full of doubt and strangeness.
The emperor's eyes became colder and his back straightened, "I don't want to talk. As my son, please cooperate with the inner government and the Ministry of Etiquette to organize your mother's funeral. Your mother has always loved you. To express this motherly love, you can do it for her." Observe filial piety for three years, and you will not have to interfere with political affairs during these three years."
Without this sentence, Nangong Yitian would still be lucky, thinking that the queen mother might have suffered a heart attack.
But when he heard this sentence, he would not be involved in political affairs for three years, it was like a thousand arrows piercing his heart, making him almost unable to breathe.
In order to restrain him, his mother was killed.
Hatred suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he took a step forward to question, but Leng Xiao quickly held his hand and shook his head.
He suppressed the anger in his body, slowly loosened his clenched fists, and watched Eunuch Qing help him go away.
Returning to the East Palace, Nangong Yitian immediately invited Eunuch Qing over for questioning.
Eunuch Qing was very embarrassed. There were some things that he really couldn't say. He knelt on the ground and said with tears: "Your Highness, there is no need to ask. I will tell you what I can say. If you can't tell me, please forgive me, but I will definitely try my best." The lives of Aunt Baolan and Aunt Qi.”
Nangong Yitian's eyes were gleaming, "Don't be afraid, Eunuch Qing. I don't want to ask you anything else. I only want to ask you what your mother said after she met your father last night."
Eunuch Qing said truthfully: "This servant accompanied the queen back to the palace. The queen said it was a pity that the winter plum blossoms had not bloomed yet. She really wanted to see the plum blossoms in full bloom. She said she was very happy that the emperor's grandson was born and that she could see the emperor's grandson. He also said that without her, both you and your grandson can live happily, and she can also be happier."
Nangong Yitian felt a dull pain in his heart, and his voice was as cold as frost, "She said these words, doesn't my father-in-law not understand what she means?"
"This slave is stupid!" Eunuch Qing knelt on the ground, covering his face and crying bitterly.
Nangong Yitian clenched the armrest, his anger constantly rising. He could only suppress it with all his strength, because he knew very well that this anger should not be directed at Eunuch Qing.
Over the years, he will try his best to do whatever Eunuch Qing can do, but when serving in front of the emperor, he also has many helplessness and last resort.
After a while, he reached out to help Eunuch Qing up, and his voice couldn't help but choke with sobs. "I'd like to trouble my father-in-law to pay attention to my mother's funeral. If there's anything wrong, remember to inform me."
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely do it." Eunuch Qing was so ashamed that he thought about going to the East Palace a thousand times last night, but the imperial army kept staring at him. He couldn't leave, and the emperor wouldn't let him go to report the news.
