Chapter 11 Chapter Eleven

If Di Qing turned around, he could see the sweat on the foreheads of Zhao Zhen and Yan Wenying. But he didn't turn his head. The moment he heard that Empress Dowager Liu had gone, he was shocked and his mind was at a loss.He didn't care about other things, he just thought in his heart, "The five dragons belong to Shambhala, you must..." Does the Queen Mother know the key to finding Shambhala?But this key point is not over yet!Blood dripped from Di Qing's heart, and he felt that there were people rushing and shouting around, as if it was very chaotic. But what did any of this have to do with him?He suddenly hated himself a little, hated why he didn't come back one day earlier.But if you come back one day earlier, will things change?Di Qing didn't know.

When he was in a state of confusion, he put a hand on Di Qing's shoulder.Di Qing turned her head and saw the bloodshot eyes of the Eighth Prince.Di Qing's lips twitched, and he said in a low voice, "Uncle..." He felt very guilty.The moment he saw the Eighth Prince, he knew that the Eighth Prince hadn't found Shambhala, and he must have been looking for it. But why did the Eighth Prince arrive in the palace so soon? The Eighth Prince was very haggard, but there was something strange in his eyes, and he also said in a low voice: "Di Qing...does the Queen Mother want to ask you something? What did she say?"

Di Qing was disappointed and said: "She seems to want to talk about Shambhala, but she didn't finish. She just said that the five dragons belong to Shambhala. If you want to find Shambhala, you must... At this point, the Queen Mother went. " The Eighth Prince stared intently at Di Qing for a moment, then said slowly: "I know what the Queen Mother wants to say." Di Qing was full of surprises, and grabbed the Eighth Prince, his voice trembling, "Uncle, do you know? What do you know? How do you know?" The Eighth Prince turned his head and looked in Zhao Zhen's direction, as if he was thinking about something.

The queen mother passed away, and the palace was in chaos. Zhao Zhen just knelt in front of the queen mother's bed, tears streaming down his face.The news had spread, and the officials were about to go to court early, when they heard the news, they had already rushed over. "This matter will not be clear for a while, I will talk to you later." The Eighth Prince said in a low voice, "I will go to comfort the Holy One first." Di Qing's heart was beating violently, but he could only wait. The Eighth Prince walked up to Zhao Zhen's side, knelt down and saw Zhao Zhen tearfully muttering: "Mother, you...you...why did you leave the child?"

It was only these few words that Zhao Zhen repeated over and over again. Under his heart, he seemed to be out of control, and completely forgot what he was going to do next.The Eighth Prince persuaded: "My lord, please let me mourn." Zhao Zhen exploded suddenly, grabbed the Eighth Prince's collar, and shouted: "You make me mourn? My mother has gone, how do you make me mourn?" The Eighth Prince was a little apprehensive, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, no matter what, all the officials are waiting outside the palace. The Empress Dowager has passed away, and the Holy Majesty has not long been enthroned. Right now, there is an urgent need to appease the hearts of the ministers to prevent accidents."

Zhao Zhen was still crying, he had already let go of his hands, and said in a daze, "How can I comfort you?" He glanced at the Queen Mother again, and his expression suddenly changed. The Eighth Prince followed Zhao Zhen's gaze and looked over with a strange expression. The hand that the empress dowager pointed forward was reluctantly put down by the maid, but the other hand of the empress dowager was still firmly grasping Yan Mian on her body, no matter what the maid did, she would not let go of that hand. Zhao Zhen's body trembled a little, and he looked towards Yan Wenying.Yan Wenying was also looking at Zhao Zhen, with deep fear in his eyes.

The Empress Dowager died, what did Yan Wenying have to fear?What is the meaning of the queen mother grabbing Yan Mian? "What does it mean that the Empress Dowager held Yan Mian tightly before she passed away?" Zhao Zhen muttered to himself, squinting at the Eighth Prince. The Eighth Prince pondered for a long time, and then said: "Forgive me for being dull, I don't understand what it means. But the ministers are already waiting outside the palace, maybe you can ask them and brainstorm to get an answer?" Zhao Zhen nodded slowly and said: "Uncle Huang is right. I'm going to ask now." When he left the Chui Gong Palace, he saw all the officials knelt down in black.All the ministers heard the sage leaving the palace and shouted long live together.

Zhao Zhen looked at the officials, choked with sobs, and just waved his hands. Yan Wenying stepped forward and announced: "The Queen Mother has... passed away." Fengyun howled, and the ministers wept. Zhao Zhen burst into tears again, and after the group of ministers rested from their grief, he asked: "The queen mother has gone, but she seems to have something else on her mind. Before she left, she grabbed Yan Mian and refused to let go. What is the reason?" Woolen cloth?" The officials were silent, and the cold wind howled, filling Xiao Su. Zhao Zhen's question was very meaningful, and the officials did not dare to speak nonsense before they had figured out the emperor's mind.

Yan Mian, originally the emperor's clothing.You know, there are many reasons why the queen mother can wear Yanmian.The Queen Mother had always been persistent in wanting to ascend the throne, but after Zhao Yunsheng's death, the Queen Mother's desire had faded, but not long ago, she suddenly insisted on wearing Yanmian to go to the Taimiao to pay homage to the ancestors of the Zhao family in the Great Song Dynasty. All the ministers understood that the Empress Dowager wanted to tell everyone in the world, especially the Song officials, that although Liu E was humble, she would eventually be able to sit on an equal footing with the king.

The queen mother's request baffled the officials of the Song Dynasty. The Empress Dowager dressed in Yanmian, although she was not enthroned, she declared that she was paying homage as the Son of Heaven.How did the ancestors of the Zhao family face this, and how embarrassing did this make the civil servants of the Song Dynasty who had been favored by the Zhao family and had always taken it as their duty to protect the country of the Song Dynasty? The queen mother insisted all the time, and the officials finally compromised with the queen mother in desperation. Song Chen changed several places of Yanmian.Let Yanmian look like Yanmian, but it is not Yanmian, so Zhao Zhen asked the queen mother to wear the redesigned Yanmian to visit the Taimiao.

I can't tell who is deceiving himself and others, is it the queen mother, the emperor or a group of Song officials?The Empress Dowager wore specious Yanmian to go to the Taimiao Temple. This seemed to be a farce. The Queen Mother has been wearing the Yanmian since then, and never took it off until she died.Everyone could see that the Queen Mother liked Yan Mian very much. Before the Empress Dowager died, she pulled Yan Mian, did she signal that the clothes should not be taken off, but should be worn until Yongding Mausoleum to accompany Zhenzong? Many people think so, but no one dares to say it. Snowflakes are falling, and loneliness is written on each petal. At that moment, Zhao Zhen's expression was colder than Xue's, and he was looking at someone.That person's expression was also cold, and more of a calm one. That person didn't look at Zhao Zhen, but just bowed his head in silence. That person was Lu Yijian, the number one person in the two mansions! Lu Yijian didn't come forward, and Xue Kui, who participated in politics, knelt forward and said, "My lord, the empress dowager removed her clothes with her hands before she died. The intention is clear. The empress dowager definitely didn't want to wear Yanmian to see the late emperor. I think the late emperor asked the empress dowager to take care of the emperor. The Empress Dowager returned to the Emperor after the Son of Heaven became an adult, if the Empress Dowager wears Yanmian and sees the late Emperor, how will she answer the late Emperor's question?" Zhao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, and murmured: "So that's the case." Turning his head to look at the old Li Di not far away, Zhao Zhen asked, "Men, the Queen Mother has been talking with you before she died. I think you understand the Queen Mother's intentions best. .From your point of view, what is the Queen Mother's intention?" Li Di was trembling all over, with indescribable sadness in his eyes. Seeing Zhao Zhen's aggressive eyes, he said in a low voice: "The old minister is old...and confused. Thinking about what Xue Shenzheng said...he has a reason." Zhao Zhen felt a little dissatisfied, turned to Lu Yijian and said, "Mr. Lu, what do you think?" Lu Yijian pondered for a moment, and said: "Master Li is right, what Xue Shenzheng said has his reasons." Some of the officials were puzzled, and some already understood. Lu Yijian and Li Di seemed to agree with Xue Kui, but they were vague in their words. They only said that Xue Kui had his reasons, but whether Xue Kui's reasons were right or not, Neither Lu nor Li said whether they suggested that the emperor adopt it. These two old fritters are of course still waiting for the Emperor's wishes. The Son of Heaven is supremely filial, no one knows how to decide! Zhao Zhen said: "Since the three Qing families have agreed to get rid of the Queen Mother's Yan Mian and return the Queen Mother's original clothes, I also think it is appropriate. Lovers, do you still have any objections?" The officials were slightly stunned, and then they said unevenly: "The Holy One is wise." Zhao Zhen glanced over the officials, looked at Lu Yijian thoughtfully, and said, "The Queen Mother has passed away, and I will ignore the imperial court for the past few days. You all step back." After finishing speaking, Zhao Zhen went back to the palace with a flick of his sleeves, and the officials knelt to see him off, discussed privately, and dispersed in twos and threes. When Zhao Zhen returned to the palace, he saw that Di Qing was still standing there, as if he hadn't moved at all.Suddenly his heart was agitated, he walked over, grabbed Di Qing's arm, choked up and said: "Di Qing, the queen mother... has gone." The palace was full of people, but he only had Di Qing in his eyes. The palace people were all taken aback when they saw this, and they didn't understand why Zhao Zhen was so sad that he didn't look for the palace people, relatives, or queen, but why he only turned to Di Qing to express his thoughts. Di Qing was also a little surprised, at a loss for what to do, and said after a while: "My lord, the deceased has passed away, you... mourn." Zhao Zhen cried for a long time, as if aware of his loss of composure, he slowly let go of his hands, sat down, and said in a low voice: "Di Qing, when I saw you in front of Yang Yushang, I was heartbroken and didn't understand. But I just realized it now. , the kind of grief of losing a loved one. The queen mother has gone, and I can no longer be filial. When I think of this..." He choked up, wiped his eyes with his sleeve, and murmured: "I... have to be good. To deal with the affairs of the Empress Dowager..." "Your Majesty, I'm not in a hurry to deal with the Empress Dowager's affairs right now." Zhao Zhen was furious, and shouted: "You... Eighth Prince, what did you say?" He thought that the words just now were said by Di Qing, and couldn't help being angry, but when he turned his head, he realized that it was Zhao Yuanyan who spoke . The Eighth Prince walked forward on his knees, and said in a trembling voice: "My lord, I risk my life to ask for something." Zhao Zhen raised his eyebrows, and said in a cold voice: "What do you want? Do you know that based on what you just said, I can kill you!" Di Qing was also a little strange, wondering why the Eighth Prince said these inappropriate words at this time. On the contrary, the voice of the Eighth Prince became low, and he was no longer afraid, "There are some things that I would rather die than say. I am loyal, and I don't want the Holy Majesty to be charged with unfilial piety at this moment." Zhao Zhen's face changed, and he said gloomyly: "Uncle Huang, do you know what you are talking about?" The Eighth Prince puffed up his chest and said word by word: "Of course I know. What I want to say is that Empress Dowager Liu is not the Holy Majesty's biological mother! And the Holy Majesty's biological mother is someone else!" Zhao Zhen stood up suddenly, his face changed again, and he lost his voice: "What are you talking about? What nonsense are you talking about!" When Di Qing heard it from the side, he was slightly startled, and also remembered what Li Shunrong said, and was uneasy for a while.What the Eighth Prince said is true, but how did the Eighth Prince know this?Should this matter be spoken out?Why did the Eighth Prince say this? The Eighth Prince became more and more calm, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true. Back then, the Empress Dowager gave birth to a daughter, and the Holy Majesty was born by a court lady. The Empress Dowager lied to the late Emperor that she had given birth to a queen. Your Majesty, I was in the palace back then, so I knew about this matter, if my Majesty does not believe what I said, you can ask Li Di. The Emperor knew about this before, and Li Di also knew about it when he was in the palace." What the Eighth Prince said came like thunder, and Zhao Zhen was on the verge of collapsing.Zhao Zhen supported the table case, and said after a long time: "Xuan Lidi is here." Li Di didn't leave the palace at first, he came tremblingly after listening to the emperor's call.The moment he saw the Eighth Prince, he seemed to understand something, with deep sorrow hidden in his eyes. Zhao Zhen looked at Li Di, gritted his teeth and said, "Master, the Eighth Prince said...the queen mother is not my biological mother, is this true?" Li Di's old face was full of fear and sadness.He knelt down slowly and said after a long time: "This matter is indeed true." Zhao Zhen smiled miserably, and after a long time, he slapped the table angrily and shouted: "Nonsense! Since you knew that I was not the Queen Mother's own, why didn't you say it earlier? Don't you know that bullying the emperor is a serious crime!" Li Di knelt there, tears streaming down his face and said: "My lord, I deserve death for my crimes." "Push Li Di out..." Zhao Zhen didn't wait for the sentence, Di Qing woke up with a start, thinking to himself that if Li Di died, wouldn't the Eighth Prince also be a capital offender?He didn't think about himself at that time, so he resolutely stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, Master Li definitely did not intend to deceive, please Your Majesty to find out." Everyone was amazed, they didn't expect that it was Di Qing who came out to plead for Li Di at this time. What's even more strange is that Zhao Zhen calmed down and asked, "Di Qing, how do you know that Li Di didn't mean to deceive?" Di Qing couldn't take back what he said, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "My lord, I think it's because of my protection for my lord that Master Li doesn't tell the truth. He's afraid that if he speaks out, it will be bad for his lord!" Li Di looked at Di Qing, full of surprise, the expression in his eyes at that moment was extremely complicated. Zhao Zhen didn't ask any more questions, of course he could understand what Di Qing was saying. There is a queen dowager who hangs the curtain, and whoever tells the matter will make the queen mother anxious, not only the courtiers have done it, but even the emperor will not be able to save his life. After a long time, Zhao Zhen sighed: "Di Qing, you are right. I almost misunderstood my mentor." After speaking, he stepped forward to help Li Di, and said apologetically, "Men, I was confused for a while and misunderstood your kindness. Don't blame me. I." Li Di was so excited that he burst into tears, and murmured: "Your Majesty... this old minister dare not. Your Majesty is wise, and the late Emperor's spirit in heaven can let go of his worries. The late Emperor ordered the old minister to take care of the Holy Majesty, but the old minister is incompetent, and he owes the Holy Grace." After speaking, he choked up and sobbed, crying sadly. Seeing Li Di's true feelings, Zhao Zhen's eyes were moist, and he said after a long time: "But based on the words of the Eighth Prince and my mentor, I always find it hard to believe this..." Li Di choked up and said, "Your Majesty, Lu was in the palace for many years and knew about it. Not only Xiang Lu knew about it, but there is another person beside His Majesty who knows about it." Di Qing's heart skipped a beat, thinking that Li Di would never know it was me, would he?Not wanting Li Di said: "Li Yonghe, the guard in front of the palace, also knows about this." Zhao Zhen frowned, and asked in surprise: "Li Yonghe? How would he know about such a confidential matter? He called Li Yonghe and Lu Yijian into the palace to meet him." Suddenly thinking of something, Zhao Zhen turned pale and stared at him. Li Di said: "If my biological mother is not the queen mother, who is the biological mother?" Li Di said after a long while: "I only know that the woman's surname is Li, so she is a docile person." Zhao Zhen swayed, supported the desk, and looked at Di Qing, with indescribable sadness in his eyes. When he heard the word Li Shunrong, he thought of Yongding Mausoleum.Hearing the words Li Shunrong, he understood why Li Yonghe knew about it. There is a clear color in his eyes. It turned out that the grief-stricken woman who looked at him affectionately was his biological mother!It turned out that the woman who gave her life to save him and stood up for him was his biological mother!It turns out that the woman who guarded Yongding Mausoleum alone all these years and looked up to his boundless splendor is his biological mother! Zhao Zhen no longer questioned, no longer doubted.All the doubts at the beginning have been explained, blood is thicker than water, only his biological mother would treat him like this, so why is there any reason? It turned out that he had met his biological mother before, but she looked like a stranger... At that moment, Zhao Zhen burst into tears. Seeing Zhao Zhen crying while looking at him, Di Qing lowered her head, unable to speak. "Di Qing, you also know about this, right?" Zhao Zhen's voice was unfathomable, "Otherwise you wouldn't have opened your mouth to defend Li Di just now. I haven't believed it yet, but you believed it. Suspect." Di Qing's heart trembled slightly, thinking of the woman who was like flowers flying in the rain.I remembered what she said, "Di Qing, I just want to ask you, if possible in the future, come to Yongding Mausoleum with Yi'er again, and ask Yi'er to come to my grave and say a few words, I will be grateful." "Why don't you talk? Did you already know?" Zhao Zhen rushed over, grabbed Di Qing by the collar, and shouted, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Why! Why did everyone know about this?" I don't know about it? Why?" Zhao Zhen's eyes were red and red, grief was more important than anger, sadness was more than blame. Di Qing let Zhao Zhen grab the collar, suddenly raised his head and said: "Yes, I know. I was going to tell you, but the order refused." Zhao Zhen was stunned, the veins on the back of his hands popped out, and he said word by word: "What did you say, my mother won't let you say it?" Di Qing calmed down, and said lightly and seriously: "Yes, the order will not let me go. She told me that as long as the Holy Spirit is good, she will be fine. She even said that the Queen Mother died, and she would be safe. There is no need to mention this matter to the Holy Spirit. She told me everything, but she just wanted me to take the Holy Spirit to her grave one day to say a few words if I could, and she would be satisfied. She is also for your own good, and I How can you go against Lingtang's will?" Zhao Zhen put down his hand, and took a few steps back in a daze, his eyes were apologetic and sad, and suddenly he fell at his desk and burst into tears, tears like rain. Everyone was silent, and they were speechless when they tried to persuade them. Footsteps sounded, and a person walked in with the palace servants, bowing his head. Di Qing recognized the man as Li Yonghe at a glance, but he almost thought he had admitted his mistake. Li Yonghe was originally a guard in front of the hall, he was strong and strong, but when the man walked in, he stood alone, emaciated. Li Yonghe looked haggard, and he still smelled heavily of alcohol.When Di Qing saw this, his heart sank, and he already felt that something was wrong. He turned his head and looked at the Eighth Prince, seeing the way he looked at Li Yonghe, he was also full of sadness. I can't tell him this secret. Yi'er will definitely not come back when he returns to Beijing this time, I don't have a few days to live..." Di Qing understood something, and his heart trembled. Yan Wenying said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Li...the guards are here." He knew that Li Yonghe's status was extraordinary, so his tone was much more polite. Zhao Zhen suddenly turned around, rushed over and hugged Li Yonghe, hissed: "Uncle!" He had never shed so many tears in his life.Holding Li Yonghe in his arms, his whole body was shaking like a dead leaf in the cold wind. This is one of his few relatives in this world. Li Yonghe stood there numbly, as if he was startled, but also seemed a little dazed, he patted Zhao Zhen's vest after a long time, and said in a low voice: "My lord...you... don't cry anymore." He said this , I shed tears instead. Everyone who saw it was a little sad, and Lu Yijian had also arrived, and his face changed when he saw the scene in front of him. Zhao Zhen choked up and said, "Uncle, why don't you make me sad? In the past twenty years, I have only met my mother once!" He suddenly remembered something, grabbed Li Yonghe's shoulders, and said eagerly: " Where is my mother? Is she still in Yongding Mausoleum? I want to take her back." Li Yonghe's tears flowed, and there was deep sorrow in his eyes. He took a step back and said in a low voice: "Your mother...has gone." Zhao Zhen trembled like thunder, and said in a trembling voice: "Go? Go...?" He suddenly understood, and said in a low voice: "No, uncle, you lied to me! Mother is still young, much younger than the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother only Go, why did she go first?" Li Yonghe looked at Zhao Zhen for a long time, and then said: "My lord, I didn't lie to you." He lowered his head with a gloomy expression, as if he didn't want others to see his tearful expression. Di Qing saw it from the side, and suddenly felt strange.It stands to reason that it is a happy event for Li Yonghe to meet Zhao Zhen, why does Li Yonghe seem to be alienated from Zhao Zhen a lot?He only thought that Li Yonghe was sad about his sister's death, that's why, so he didn't think about it any further. The Eighth Prince lamented from the side: "My lord, the Lingtang did go half a year ago. Therefore, I risked my life to explain the truth. I only hope that the lord will remember to hold the funeral for the biological mother when he handles the funeral for the empress dowager." Zhao Zhen said angrily: "You are lying, why did my mother go there for no reason?" The Eighth Prince replied: "If your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask Prime Minister Lu." Lu Yijian was still as cold and cold as before, but there was a seriousness in his eyes.Seeing Zhao Zhen staring at him closely, Lu Yijian said cautiously: "Return to the Lord, the Eighth Prince is right. Li... Your Majesty, she... passed away half a year ago. Right now, your body is parked in Hongfu Yuan." Zhao Zhen took a step forward, glared at Lu Yijian and said, "Then why did you say it today?" Lu Yijian was startled inwardly, but still said calmly: "Your Majesty calm down, the minister is only following orders." "It's a good one to act according to the order!" Zhao Zhen looked up to the sky and smiled sadly, two lines of tears flowed wantonly, and before the laughter ended, Zhao Zhen had already shouted: "Let's drive to Hongfuyuan, I want to see my mother's remains. How can my mother be like this Dead? Yan Wenying!" Yan Wenying rushed over and said, "The minister is here!" Zhao Zhen gritted his teeth and said: "I have ordered Ge Huaimin to lead troops to surround Liu Mei's mansion. Now I am going to see my mother. If she is murdered and died, I will immediately send an order to kill all of Liu's family!" If Li Shunrong dies badly, it must be the Empress Dowager Liu's fault.The implication of Zhao Zhen's words is that he will not do anything to the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother's family will not end well. Everyone was slightly terrified, it can be seen that Zhao Zhen's eyes were full of murderous intent, and no one dared to persuade him. Yan Wen hurriedly retreated.Zhao Zhen was about to leave the palace, so he did not forget to order: "Di Qing, follow me!" Di Qing shivered slightly, not wanting the Empress Dowager to die, and the palace would be bloody again in an instant. Zhao Zhen went out of the palace and went to Yuren, and under the guard of the forbidden army, he went straight to Hongfuyuan. The emperor was furious, and the officials were terrified.When the news spread, the courtiers who had just dispersed turned around and ran towards Hongfuyuan. When approaching Hongfuyuan, Zhao Zhen suddenly said: "Stop." Everyone was puzzled, but Zhao Zhen had already got off the jade belt and walked towards Hongfuyuan on foot, thinking in his heart, "Mother, the child is not filial, the child is here." Only then did the officials know that Zhao Zhen wanted to see his biological mother, not as the son of heaven, but only as a parent and child, and they sighed with horror.They all thought that the Son of Heaven mourned so much for his biological mother, and if Li Shunrong really did not end well, he was afraid that the Son of Heaven would not only punish and kill the nine clans of the Liu family, but even kill all the officials who flattered the Empress Dowager in the first place. The queen mother has been hanging the curtain for many years, except for Fan Zhongyan and a few people in the Manchu Dynasty, who has not flattered the queen mother? When the officials were worried, Zhao Zhen had already arrived at Hongfuyuan. The palace servant Wen Sheng came forward, led the way early, and led Zhao Zhen to a large hall.The hall is lonely as a tomb, with few luxuries.In the middle of the hall stood a lonely coffin, just like Li Shunrong's before his death. Zhao Zhen couldn't restrain his grief, he knelt down and walked to the side of his mother's coffin, helping the coffin and weeping bitterly. The officials did not dare to persuade, but could only follow and bow down.After a long time, Zhao Zhen finally got up, looked at the coffin and said, "Open the coffin, I want to see my mother again." Lu Yijian said aside: "Your Majesty... I am afraid it is not appropriate to disturb the spirit of Concubine Chen." It turned out that after Li Shunrong's death, Empress Dowager Liu had promoted Li Shunrong to Concubine Chen. When Zhao Zhen heard the word Chenfei, he thought to himself that his mother was just a Chenfei before she died, and became even more angry, "Is there any mother who doesn't want to see her son?" Lu Yijian frowned lightly. Seeing Zhao Zhen's anger was burning high, it was inconvenient to say any more, so he fell silent. But Zhao Zhen thought, "Lv Yijian helped me a lot back then, but when the Queen Mother went, he shrank back and blocked my eyesight." He didn't have time to talk to Lu Yijian, and as soon as he waved his hand, some palace officials stepped forward and tried their best Opened the coffin. With a "creak" sound, everyone's hearts were lifted to their chests. The coffin lid was opened, Zhao Zhen raised his eyes and looked over, with a strange expression on his face. It was Li Shunrong lying in the coffin, but Li Shunrong's face was lifelike, and he was lying peacefully in the coffin. The items protecting the coffin were all handled according to the queen mother's specifications, even Li Shunrong was wearing the queen mother's clothes.No matter who saw Li Shunrong's remains, they felt that Li Shunrong's death was not harmed at all. Zhao Zhen stood there dumbly for a long time, then turned his head to look at Yan Wenying. Yan Wenying followed Zhao Zhen, with an uneasy expression all the time. Seeing Zhao Zhen looking over, he said tremblingly: "My lord, I think the Queen Mother has not treated badly after all... Li Niangniang." Zhao Zhen was overwhelmed with emotion in his heart, the boundless anger dissipated, and unspeakable deep thoughts welled up in his heart.The past is turbulent, and the scenes are endless. The officials only saw that Zhao Zhen's face was cloudy and sunny, and his heart was beating endlessly.After a long time, Zhao Zhen let out a long sigh, glanced thoughtfully at the Eighth Prince, and murmured, "How can people believe what they say? The eldest lady did not treat my mother badly." Turning to look at Yan Wenying, he said: "Yan Wenying, the soldiers who passed on my order to evacuate Liu Mei's mansion... all go back. Di Qing, you stay." The officials couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, although they felt that Zhao Zhen was too close to Di Qing, but it was inconvenient to disobey the emperor's will at this time, and retreated full of doubts. Di Qing also didn't understand why Zhao Zhen left him alone. Although he was saddened by Li Shunrong's death, he was even more anxious to ask the Eighth Prince about the Queen Mother Liu's last words.But seeing Zhao Zhen standing alone beside Li Shunrong's coffin, full of desolation, Di Qing finally got the temper and stayed by Zhao Zhen's side. After a long time, Zhao Zhen didn't turn around, but murmured: "Di Qing, when I was in trouble, my mother was by my side, and you...you risked your life for me, but because of me, I lost my favorite woman. When I saw your crazy behavior, I was very disturbed, and I felt ashamed of you." Hearing Zhao Zhen's mention of the past, Di Qing felt slightly sour, and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty... maybe this is the minister's order." He suddenly thought, if he didn't serve as Zhao Zhen's bodyguard, he would be just an ordinary imperial guard. Perhaps this life will not have these troubles.Or maybe, he didn't join the army at all, and Yang Yushang didn't meet him, so he wouldn't have suffered such a catastrophe. Thinking of this, Di Qing couldn't help but feel pain in his heart. Zhao Zhen didn't look at Di Qing, but said to himself: "Sometimes I think, if I were just an ordinary person, maybe... I would be much happier." Di Qing was dumbfounded, not thinking that Zhao Zhen was similar to him. Zhao Zhen looked at Li Shunrong in the coffin, his eyes were wet again, and said in a low voice: "But I am the emperor, I have no choice, I ask you to forgive... I know you will forgive me, right?" Di Qing was a little surprised, wondering who Zhao Zhen was talking to?To him, Di Qing?The palace change happened suddenly, Zhao Zhen didn't have to blame himself so much. Zhao Zhen was trembling all over, turned around suddenly, held Di Qing's arms with both hands, his eyes were full of apology and guilt, and hissed: "Di Qing, you know my mother best. You say, she won't blame me, yes No? She will definitely forgive my unfilial son, right?" Seeing that Di Qing was full of surprise, Zhao Zhen said in a low voice, "Say it, say it!" Di Qing felt that Zhao Zhen was a little out of order, and was shocked, and said loudly: "My lord, Lingtang will never blame you. She is only for your own good, she knows, you don't know. She won't blame you, she will never blame you !" Zhao Zhen's body shook, his face was full of misery, and he murmured: "Yes, if I don't know, she won't blame me. If I don't know, she won't blame me..." He kept repeating this sentence, his expression was in a trance, his face was pale, and suddenly he turned back and threw himself on the coffin again, crying bitterly. The white candle clears the tears, weeping for the warmth and coldness of the world; the winter snow in the cold night, the desert dances the farewell to the world. A gust of wind blew in, carrying the snow, and it was whirling around leisurely. Di Qing looked at the white candle with snow falling, and for some reason, his heart suddenly trembled. That trembling and the wind and snow outside the courtyard made Di Qing shiver uncontrollably.The snow is colder and the sky is getting colder. It turns out that Bianjing has already been in severe winter...
