Hula, another gust of wind blew, and the candlelight became more and more subtle, as if it was about to go out the next moment.

It was like a thin neck under the palm. In the slow tightening force, Xiao Yu touched the faint pulse and breathed lightly...

Finally, he let go of his hand.

Tick, tick... The sound leaks are neither fast nor slow, just like just now, as if it is about to ring forever.

For no reason, Xiao Yu remembered her request. If we could have a child, I will follow you when he grows up.

How did he answer at that time?He thought she understood, and he promised to give her a child, but refused to go with her.From beginning to end, he never gave up on his thoughts of revenge.

He used words to test her, deliberately mentioning Cui Jun or accusing her of not trusting him, was all about eliminating her vigilance and defense.

He allowed the nobles and families to compete for the quota of the harem. Although he knew that she could not choose a wide range of concubines, he watched coldly, allowing her reputation among the court officials to become increasingly shaky.

At the critical moment when the aristocratic family was increasingly distrustful of her, pushing her into a more sinister situation.

This step by step, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, and one by one, one by one, one by one.

He never doubted how smart he was and could easily play tricks in his hands.

He never shy away from how despicable he is, and can use anything, including his own feelings.

But at that moment, she stood in front of him without hesitation, and even taught him to feel ashamed.

He thought he finally understood that at that time his answer was not to promise her to give her a child. He just wanted to say, I am not worthy of such a pure relationship, let alone you.

Hearing the sound of footsteps from the inner room, Linxia subconsciously straightened her waist and went forward: Your Highness, the saint...

The saint has not yet woken up, and the regent replied lightly, "The imperial physician will come again tomorrow and take good care of the saint."After saying that, he walked away.

It was obviously the usual tone, and it was clearly that person, but Linxia felt that the Regent seemed a little different.

He seemed to be shrouded in the unpredictable mist, but it was not as deep as before, but like a star with sharp edges, slowly falling, slowly falling... and finally fell into the dim ashes.

On October 12, a clear edict was issued, declaring the final verdict of all the unrest parties involved in the family rebellion.

This seemed to be a signal that this shocking chaos was about to end, but at the court meeting the next day, a memorial set off another sinister wave of the court.

Chen Qi, the chief censor, impeached the regent Xiao Yu to raise private soldiers and build armored weapons. His unjust intention was obvious and his crime was extremely serious.

Starting with this memorial, the imperial case of the emperor flying like snowflakes, in addition to the most serious suspicion of rebellion, there were those who participated in Xiao Yu's party and those who participated in Xiao Yu's personal gain, and even those who committed suicide by committing suicide by slaughtering slaves.

The court officials of the Regent were caught off guard, but Xiao Yu said he was sick and refused to court. Everyone lost their backbone for a while and responded in disarray.

Yao Ji had to say: The Regent is a great hero in the quell of this rebellion. If he did not teach him to defend himself, wouldn’t he be disappointed?Since the Regent today is said to be ill, he will discuss this matter after he recovers from his illness.

As soon as this statement was made, the court officials knew that the emperor wanted to protect the regent. Xiang Mingchu, the Minister of Justice below, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After the court, he quickly ordered someone to send a letter to the regent's palace: Go and tell Your Highness that the aristocratic family wants to participate in him!After the disposal, he complained to the Censor again, "What's going on with that Chen Qi? The aristocratic family is going to attack His Highness, but you don't know?"!

The censor was also furious. Chen Qi was his subordinate. Although he had never dealt with him because of his family, he had not received any news in advance today, and it was really a slap in the face.

After finally ending until sunset, the two hurried to the Regent's Mansion. When they got there, several middle-aged and high-ranking officials in the court had already arrived.

The few people looked dark, and the chief of the royal palace stood aside and smiled apologized. Seeing Xiang Mingchu coming, he had not spoken yet, a minister in the inner world said: Your Highness will not see us.

Xiang Mingchu was stunned, and the Chief Secretary took the opportunity to step forward: Your Highness has given him instructions. Your Highness has known everything. You don’t have to panic, nor do you have to do anything. Just wait and see what happens.

After hearing this, the few people thought the Regent had already made a follow-up arrangement. Although they were full of suspicion, they still went home.

However, the development of the situation made them increasingly puzzled. Although the emperor suppressed the matter, the court's attack on the Regent became more and more intense day by day.

In addition to the aristocratic families, even nobles got involved.

Before this, due to the great power of the aristocratic family, the nobles had always cooperated with the Regent in order to compete with him.

But as the aristocratic family was severely damaged by the family riots, this balance was broken, and the aristocratic families were afraid that the regent, who had always been tough, would kill him, so they joined forces with the nobles and turned their fingers on the regent.

Today is a friend, tomorrow may be the enemy. The situation in the court is changing rapidly and the turbulent. Although there is obvious favoritism from the emperor, Yao Ji has not taken power yet, and she feels that she is almost unable to bear it.

The family's chaos inevitably showed the appearance of decline, and made them like frightened birds, unable to tolerate a regent with a tough attitude towards the aristocratic family.

So they even brought up the charge of treason. The scene of Chen Qi being imprisoned a few years ago seems to be reappearing, and the rebellion is even more serious than colluding with the enemy and treason!

Even Zhang Jingan tactfully advised Yao Ji when he was alone: ​​The unstable court situation is not a blessing for the country. The sage should know that only by giving up can one gain.Only by abandoning a regent can one calm the hearts of aristocratic families and the hearts of court officials.

But Yao Ji refused: I know what to give up, so I don’t need to comment on it.

The court officials naturally became increasingly dissatisfied with her performance. Originally, because Yao Ji supported Xiao Yu to implement the trial method, her reputation was damaged. At this time, people were panic, and for a moment, her situation became more and more difficult.

What made her even more anxious was that the internal supervisor she sent to the royal palace to report the same reply every time: Your Highness thanked the guest while he was ill, and no one saw him.

You asked him, she finally threw the pen on the table. Didn’t she even see me?!

Xiao Yu did not achieve such a decisive level. The next day, the Regent, who had been in a closed door for half a month, entered the palace.

On the way from the royal palace to the forbidden city, I don’t know how many eyes were staring at him.

Xiao Yu did not look like he had just recovered from a serious illness. Yao Ji knew it well, that was just his excuse.

At this time, autumn was already coming. In the vast square outside the Tai Chi Palace, the autumn wind whirled and rolled up dead leaves. The autumn sun shone a long shadow on the golden brick floor through the window lattice. He walked in in line with the light, his face seemed to be invisible. Yao Ji was sure of her consciousness, and she was still as usual.

It seemed that the fleeting distantness and distantness just now was just her illusion, but for no reason, the cold spread from her fingertips toward her.

She originally had a lot of words to say, asking him why he didn't go to the court to defend himself, and telling him that she had been waiting for him all these days, and she knew everything, the past events and those painful memories, she didn't know what his answer was, but no matter what he thought or did, she believed him and would never take back the request.

But she couldn't say anything, and she looked at Xiao Yuwu with a steady salute. After the salute, she still knelt on the ground.

She understood that the coldness flowed into the blood vessels along her limbs, which seemed to freeze her heart hard.

I am guilty and I will enter the palace to apologize today.

After a long time, Yao Ji heard herself say with difficulty: What a crime.

rebellion.

In the corner, the daily note official who was writing quickly paused slightly when he heard this, raised his head in surprise, wondering whether he should have made this decision.

When the emperor spoke, she seemed to be laughing, but the smile was like a sad voice: OK, okay...rebellion...

That's your choice?

The Regent seemed to hesitate, his lips opened and closed, and finally he lowered his eyes and stopped looking at the man sitting on the throne: Yes.

On October 23, Regent Xiao Yu was imprisoned for the crime of disrespect. The emperor remembered that he had been assisting in the administration for many years and had made contributions to the country, so he pardoned his crime. In order to punish him, he seized the title of Regent and imprisoned him in the palace. He could not be given a general amnesty.

In August of the following year, the Empress Yuan gave birth to a son. The emperor was very happy and named him the crown prince on the spot.

Crown Prince Xiao Xi was born smart and started to be in trouble at the age of two. At the age of five, Yao Ji told him all the time about his life experience, and the little child still couldn't understand: So, my father is actually my mother, and my mother is also my mother?Then... what about my dad?

Yao Ji touched his fluffy hair: Your father... has been in the mansion for six years.

But the tutor said, "The Regent, it's wrong. My dad was ordered by my mom to imprison me. After all, Xiao Xi was still stumbling when talking about the court. The tutor also said that if my mom had not imprisoned my dad at that time, she would not be able to appease the aristocratic family. Therefore, in order to stabilize the court, she had to do it. This is the emperor's choice.

Yao Ji smiled, only she and Xiao Yu knew that although the order was given by her, Xiao Yu had the choice to do it himself.He chose to exile himself, but not to stabilize the court.

After more than ten years of hatred and more than ten years of obsession, he could not let go of it all at once, but he could not hurt Yao Ji for it.

If he stayed in the court, he would either rebel or give up revenge. However, such a bloody hatred taught him how to let go lightly. How could he be worthy of his parents and relatives who died tragically?

The most cruel choice in this world is this. At that moment, Yao Ji realized her naivety and unbearableness. They had no results after all. Since that night 19 years ago, there has been no more.

So she said nothing, and did not tell Xiao Yu that she was two months pregnant, and that was their child.

After saying that, Xiao Yu will be shaken, and this is nothing more than a persecution against him.

For his sake, he could give up the throne that was within his reach, and for him, she could be willing to let him go.

Then, Xiao Xi frowned and thought hard, is my dad still in the palace?Or he has left.

He is still there.Yao Ji answered affirmatively that they had never met in the past few years, but she just knew that he was there.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xi suddenly became excited. He grabbed Yao Ji's sleeve and shook: Ah Mom, Ah Mom... Ah Mom said that when I grow up, Ah Mom will go to Jiangnan to live in seclusion, right?

Seeing Yao Ji nodding, there seemed to be stars in his eyes. My mother can go find my father. At that time, my mother will not be the emperor. When my mother finds her father, I can see her father. I miss her father... OK, my mother.

Dalang wants to see his father?

Um!Xiao Xi focused on the key points.

Yao Ji smiled gently. She didn't know whether she was coaxing Xiao Xi or giving herself a hope: Dalang should grow up quickly. When Dalang can stand alone, Dalang... will come to see Dalang and Mother.

On the eighth day of the second month of the 16th year of Yuan'an, Shangchan was located in the ten-year-old crown prince Xiao Xi and retreated to Shangyang Palace.In March of the same year, the crown prince succeeded to the throne and was amnesty for the whole world.

Just after the new emperor's decree to pardon the world was issued, the first ray of sunshine of this spring, the palace of the Wu, which had been hidden for 11 years.

The man sat by the window and dropped a piece on the chess scale. His hands were still slender and powerful, as if time had never stopped here.

Your Highness, the royal family ran in excitedly, and there was no time to even go to court. He held a mansion in his hand. The new emperor succeeded to the throne and was pardoned by the world. Your Highness has been pardoned!

It was completely different from Chengfeng's cheerful reaction. The man got up after a game of chess.

The vermilion red gold brocade robe on his body was no longer bright. Only then did Chengfeng realize that His Highness was wearing old clothes from eleven years ago.

But the old clothes on him were still as noble as eleven years ago, and people dared not look at him.

But only he knew that the sharp edges hidden under his careless mind had faded away. Over the long years, unwillingness and pain finally dissipated, and only confusion and longing were settled.

Seeing him stepping out, Chengfeng quickly trotted and followed: Where is Your Highness going?

Xiao Yu smiled slightly, his voice gentle: Go and meet someone.
