Chang'an is good

Chapter 80 Don't let her run away

At that time, the father was in the prime of life, with power in his hands. He was no longer the young and flustered new king when he first came to the throne, and he was still far away from old age, frailty and sickness.

He was at the best age for an emperor, only the next prince, the eldest son who died young, and five others.

The eldest son of the emperor was born of the empress, unfortunately he died young.

Among the remaining five princes, the biological mother of the second prince was the eminent imperial concubine. The father of this imperial concubine was an official in the middle of the book order at that time, and he was the right prime minister who was respected by everyone.

Although the third prince who was beaten by her was not as good as the second prince, but when he was two years old, he was chosen by the queen and kept by her side all the time, and was regarded by the queen as his own.

And her younger brother, the fourth prince, Li Xiao, was born of a young talent. This talented person was promoted to concubine after giving birth to her and her younger brother.

There are two little princes under the younger brother, and Li Bing, who was later enthroned and then deposed, was one of them.

At that time, not long after the mother and concubine became a concubine, there happened to be a severe drought in Shu, and someone with a heart involved the severe drought on her. They only said that when Concubine Hui gave birth to the twins, the sky was gloomy and thunderous. It's an ominous sign--

Although her father refuted this as nonsense, there were still rumors in the palace, and the father never called the mother and concubine to sleep in the next few years.

The concubine mother took her and her younger brother to live in a remote place closest to the elephant garden. When the weather was hot, no matter how much incense the palace staff smoked, they could not dispel the annoying mosquitoes and smell.

Pian's younger brother was born weak and sick, which made people worry and suffer. In her impression, the mother and concubine seldom cried at that time, but never smiled.

This was the case until she was eight years old.

——That is, the year she pretended to be her younger brother and beat the third prince.

That day, when the third prince pointed at her to complain, the father did not have much expression on his face. Instead, he said to the third prince: "Li Yi, you should have a better memory. When you bully others with some strength, you will Think about today."

The third prince's lips moved when he heard the words, and he didn't dare to say any more.

The royal father looked at her again——

He didn't say a word about "her" beating someone, and there was a trace of relief in his eyes: "It seems that Xiaoer's body has become much healthier, and he has become more energetic. Very good, my emperor's son, that's how it should be."

My prince, that's how it should be.

At that time, she didn't know that these words would change her life, but she didn't dare to expose the lie, so she forcibly suppressed her voice, imitating the tone of her younger brother in the past, and said with some fear: "Thank you, Father."

That night, the royal father stepped into the residence of the concubine mother for the first time.

After the father left, the mother concubine called her to her front.

As early as after she came back, the concubine mother knew that she had gone to beat someone pretending to be a younger brother, so the palace guards put her under guard, so she had no time to see her.

She was still wearing her younger brother's robe, and when she stood in front of the concubine mother, she thought that the concubine mother would punish her severely.

But Concubine Mu just looked at her and said softly: "Ah Shang, this robe really suits you very well."

There seems to be some hope in the always barren eyes of the concubine mother, but also seems to be a little sad: "You always like fists, kicks and sticks, and you say you want to protect Ah Xiao, but fists and kicks alone are not enough... Now, you have a chance, you can become Ah Xiao came to protect him, you are willing, right?"

She was puzzled: "Why... must I become Ah Xiao?"

"Because Ah Xiao is the prince." Looking at her, the concubine mother squatted down, supported her small shoulders, and explained seriously: "Although Dasheng once had an empress, it was in Under the premise that there is no prince in the palace, the right time, place and people are indispensable... and your father now has five princes, so he will not pay attention to the princess, even if you are smart and capable, why has he ever looked at you?"

She couldn't help but startled.

Yes.

The reason Father talked to her today was because "she is Ah Xiao".

She was inexplicably uneasy: "But Concubine Mu, this is not fair."

"Fairness..." Concubine Mu pulled the corners of her mouth very rarely, like a smile, but it seemed to be ironic: "People are born with high and low, how can there be fairness?"

While the concubine mother was speaking, she gently stroked her cheek with her hand. The concubine mother's fingers were cold, and her tone was a little sad: "You and A Xiao are twins, but you were born extremely healthy, but he was so weak... How can it be fair?"

Under her mother's watchful eyes, she felt guilty for this—just like she had inadvertently overheard her concubine and nurse say before: "If the bodies of their siblings were changed... Life might not be like this It's tough."

Just like whenever A Xiao fell ill, there seemed to be something she couldn't understand in the eyes of the concubine mother when she looked at her.

She got a good and healthy body, it seems to be a kind of fault, as if she snatched it from Ah Xiao.

Little children don't know how to distinguish too much, and the word "self" has not yet sprouted, and they are already filled with guilt and debt.

So, facing the "opportunity" in her mother's mouth, she willingly accepted it.

She wanted to "make up" for her "mistakes", she wanted to make the concubine mother happy, and she wanted to have something that her mother said could protect her younger brother better than fists and feet.

So, she obediently put on the robe.

Later, the robes turned into armor—at that time, the country was in turmoil, and the war was a real war, a war that had to be fought. Facing such a war, facing fierce alien races, no prince dared to "experience", And this is her best option.

Day after day, year after year.

She fought many victories and made many military exploits, so much so that when her father appointed "Li Xiao" as the crown prince, there were very few opposition voices in the court.

Later, the armor was removed and turned into a wedding dress for marriage.

The wedding dress was her concubine mother, no, concubine mother had become a concubine—it was her concubine who brought it to her.

"Ah Shang...Three years, three years at most, Auntie will definitely welcome you back to Dasheng, and everything will be fine by then."

Auntie.

The queen mother actually called herself A Niang to her.

What an intimate and warm title that is. When you read these two words in your heart, it makes you feel at ease, as if you have found your home in the precarious weather, and you will no longer be afraid or sad.

But to her, the most beautiful existence in this world has become a sharp knife.

That sharp blade is different from the open swords and dark arrows on the battlefield.

And she didn't run away.

But it hurt too much, she didn't want A Niang anymore.

Then return everything to the other party, this is the last time, enough to pay off, she finally paid off.

It's really a good thing to stop feeling guilty.

Even when she died, she felt that her breathing was smooth.

She took a long breath and opened her eyes.

Chang Suining sat up, only to see that the room was brightly lit, and she lightly slapped her painful head with her hand.

"The girl finally woke up!" Xi'er came over, brought a cup of warm water, and breathed a sigh of relief: "The girl fell asleep for a day and a night... You can't drink this wine from now on."

Chang Suining took the teacup, drank it first, and then asked Xi'er, "Who rescued me after I fell into the water yesterday?"

The blurry memory in her mind only stayed at the moment when she fell into the water.

"The girl swam up by herself..."

Chang Suining let out an "ah", and then Shangjue nodded in satisfaction.

As expected of her.

Although it is a bit embarrassing to fall into the water drunk, but after falling into the water and going ashore on your own, you can also regain some face.

"But when the girl fell into the water, General Ah Dian was still far away. The general and Chief Cui just happened to come over, and Chief Chief Cui jumped into the water to save the girl..." Xi'er said in a softer voice: "But the girl somehow beat Cui Dadu in the water."

Chang Suining: "?"

Cui Jing went into the water to save her, but she beat Cui Jing?

No matter how this matter sounds, it is outrageous: "...Why did I hit him?"

"The servant girl doesn't know..." Xi'er looked at her girl, "Did the girl forget everything?"

Chang Suining silently looked at his sinful hands and his weak body after drunkenness.

It is not easy to completely tame this picked up body.

"But... when did the girl learn to swim?" Xi'er was curious.

Chang Suining, who was in a complicated mood, responded badly: "I don't know."

It doesn't matter, people with broken brains are like this.

Xi'er suddenly said, "My servant knows!"

Chang Suining: "?"

Can she know this too?

"It's like a girl learning to ride and shoot, try it and you'll be fine!" Xi'er said proudly, "Since the girl's brain had an accident, she is very talented in learning everything now!"

Seeing the little girl who had explained everything to her by herself, after Chang Suining was silent, nothing but comfort was left.

well.

That's the beauty of being a wizard.

And to be a genius with a broken brain is even more invincible-under such a premise, no matter how outrageous things are, they will become reasonable.

"It's my fault for not dissuading the girl from drinking in time..." Xi'er said shamelessly, "The girl has never drank alcohol before, so the maid doesn't know how much she can drink. Yesterday I saw the girl drinking fruit wine very quickly." It's because of the feeling that it's easy to grasp, so I mistakenly think that the girl is also very talented in drinking..."

Chang Suining suddenly retched.

Xi'er hurriedly patted her on the back: "What's wrong with the girl?"

Chang Suining suppressed the churning feeling: "Maybe it's because the word "jiu" in your words was too dense, and I felt dizzy..."

Saying this, I wanted to vomit again.

Xi'er said repeatedly: "The maidservant will stop talking and never say it again!"

I'm afraid the girl was drunk and injured... In the future, she can't even smell the smell of alcohol, can she?
"Then Governor Cui...was I injured?" Chang Suining slowed down before he had the time to ask Cui Jing.

"There seems to be a wound here..." Xi'er pointed to the corner of her mouth, "But it's okay, it's just a superficial wound."

Chang Suining sighed silently: "That is also very wronged."

As her mind came back, she roughly remembered some fragmentary images, including the motive for hurting people at that time - she was drunk and confused, and mistaken Cui Jing for the enemy.

While talking, Chang Suining, who was sitting on the bedside, touched something beside the pillow with his finger, picked it up casually, and saw it was a white jade auspicious cloud hairpin——

She looked confused: "Where did this come from?"

"You pulled this from Chief Cui's head..." Xi'er said with some embarrassment, "You pulled this off and used it against Chief Cui as a dagger. He held it tight in his hand and wouldn't let go."

Chang Suining looked worriedly at the bed curtain above his head.

After a while, he swore like an oath: "I will never drink alcohol again."

She doesn't like the feeling that she is not under her control, it will make her uneasy-this time it will be embarrassing, and the next time if it is not complete, she will lose her life.

"What time is it?" Chang Suining suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly asked Xi'er.

"Girl, it's almost noon."

Chang Suining was a little regretful: "I made an appointment with my brother last night to go out of the city this morning to sacrifice—"

Wouldn't that be breaking his promise?
"But Mr. Lang hasn't woken up from the wine yet. It is said that he got up in the morning and had some food. After eating, he fell asleep again."

Chang Suining: "...That's good."

Brother was too drunk to wake up and she broke his promise, she chose the former.

"Did Suining wake up?" At this moment, Chang Kuo's voice came from outside the room.

Chang Sui Ning put on his clothes and got out of bed.

Chang Kuo was still wearing official robes when he walked in, obviously he had just come to see his daughter in the morning: "It's good to wake up...You child, you scared daddy yesterday!"

"Do you have a headache?"

"You don't need to worry about Chief Cui's affairs. You didn't do it on purpose. He is not a narrow-minded person... After finding the opportunity, Dad will hold a banquet to apologize to him, and the matter will be exposed."

"But it's really not good to drink more wine in the future. It's better to ensure safety first."——whether it's your own or someone else's.

Hearing what Chang Kuo said, Chang Suining nodded in response.

"By the way, there is one more thing..." Chang Kuo looked at his daughter curiously: "After Suining came up from the middle of the pond yesterday, he said something to Father... cunning, what did you leave to Father, what do you mean? "

Chang Suining: "..."

Well, he didn't catch a single word that was most important.

Chang Kuo looked at her as if scratching his heart and lungs.

This thing is always lingering in his mind, he can't tell what it feels like, it seems that once he misses it, he will miss something extremely important...

He has been thinking about it for a long time!

As for those people who were arguing dimly over who would take over the post of Minister of Rites, he wasn't even listening.

Chang Suining thought for a while, then shook his head: "I don't remember either... I guess it's just drunken nonsense, Dad don't need to worry about it."

Chang Kuo could only nod his head.

However, the inexplicable sense of urgency in my heart still couldn't be completely dispelled.

He was suffering from not being able to remember, Chang Sui Ning was afraid that he would remember, so he changed the topic and asked: "Father, did Chief Cui really not get angry yesterday?"

"Don't worry, he seems to be difficult to get along with, but he is actually the most sensible." Chang Kuo said, and suddenly frowned: "However... the tricks that Suining used yesterday were quite ruthless to me. Hot, how did Lao Chu think of teaching you this?"

Chang Suining blinked: "This..."

"Good teaching!" Chang Kuo smiled brightly: "You have to learn this to learn kung fu! Fancy punches and embroidered legs are not fancy, learn some killer moves to defend yourself!"

Chang Sui Ning smiled without saying a word.

……

Early the next morning, the brothers and sisters of the Chang family went out of the city to visit Mrs. Chang's tomb.

While burning the paper, Chang Suian couldn't hold back a few tears in front of the tomb.

In spring, the vegetation was dense, and not far away, there was a figure looking at the situation in front of the tomb through the gaps in the vegetation. Seeing the back of the young man wiping tears, he couldn't help sighing.

Unexpectedly, this sigh broke things.

The next moment, she suddenly saw the girl standing in front of the grave pouring wine turn her head, and without waiting for her to react, the jug in the girl's hand flew straight towards her face!
The pupils of the person hiding behind the bushes shrank, and he quickly avoided it.

And when he dodged, he exposed his figure.

"Quick, don't let her run away!"
