Yijuan cloud

Chapter 284 Extra [-] She is Chunhui
Count nine cold days, dripping water turns into ice.

There was silence in the courtyard of the Wenhua Palace. I walked with my hands on the stove, one foot deep and one foot shallow. The attendant Chun Shou yawned repeatedly, and the lamp in his hand also swayed back and forth, and the light and shadow on the ground rippled like lake water.

I walked in the cold wind, and the tips of my ears hurt from the cold, but I felt relaxed and at ease because I was alone here.

My father always thought that I had a gloomy temper and was thoughtful at a young age. I didn't quite understand what "being thoughtful" meant, but I also knew that I was not as popular as the other princes.

Especially Liang Xianyi.He could naturally cover his father's eyes from behind and let his father guess who he was.

I don't even dare to think about such a move.Every time I see my father, I dare not even raise my eyes.

I was thinking to myself, and suddenly I looked up and saw a light on in the study.

Who is inside so early?
I stopped suddenly, hesitating whether to move forward. Chun Shou looked at me in confusion and called in a low voice: "Your Highness?"

If we go in at this time, no matter which prince or Taifu Zhang is, we will inevitably talk to him. If we don't go in, we will be too cowardly. I secretly pray that the person inside is some palace official who came to clean and arrange the place.

Unexpectedly, it was Liang Xianyi.He was busy writing. He only looked up at me and said with a smile: "Second brother is here so early? I am in a hurry to catch up on my homework, so I won't get up to salute you."

I sat in my seat, took out "The Great Learning" and read silently, and from time to time I heard the voices of Liang Xianyi and the attendants talking to the palace attendants... It was lively, so cold, so quiet, but their place was as lively as if it were a market. inside.

Although I don’t know what the market looks like, I heard from my mother-in-law that there are candy makers, jugglers, sesame seed sellers, wine shops and inns.I often think that it would be better if I was not born into a royal family, but into an ordinary family, so that I would not be sitting in this cold palace.

Because my mother and concubine were not favored, I was born weak. The other princes and princesses were much younger than me, and they all looked like the toon trees in the palace. But I was seven years old after the Chinese New Year, and I still looked like I was four or five years old. childish.

I heard from my mother-in-law that when I was four years old, there was a banquet in the palace. I did not dare to leave the table to go to the toilet, and actually drowned in my pants. His Highness Liang Huaiyao sat next to me, clapped his hands and laughed at me: "I am so shameless. You’re a diaper kid, you have no shame, you’re a pants diaper kid.” Everyone at the table looked at me, my mother-in-law said, and I cried “Wow” at that time.

I had long forgotten about this incident, but my mother-in-law often mentioned it, so I always thought about the situation at that time.

My mother-in-law often sighed: "Your father still liked you in the past, but it was all because you failed to live up to your expectations and still defecated in public at the age of four. No wonder your father doesn't like you anymore." After saying that, she earnestly told me, "Jin Hao Ah, you have to keep up the good work, my mother will depend on you in the future."

I allowed myself to concentrate on my studies, no longer thinking wildly, let alone listening to Liang Xianyi's laughter.

That day, before Taifu Zhang came over, the Xiangguan from the concubine's palace came to see me in the Wenhua Palace.

She was standing in the yard. When she saw me, she pulled me and ran. As she ran, she said, "Your Highness, please hurry up. If you are late, you may not be able to see your empress."

I thought something had happened to the concubine, but when I arrived at the concubine's palace, I found out that another concubine had had a miscarriage.

I don't understand why my mother-in-law would be so scared when other empresses were sick. She hugged me again and again in a panic and said, "Jinhao, Jinhao, if my mother-in-law has any shortcomings, you must take it upon yourself to do so." Just take care of yourself, don’t cause trouble, and study hard, you know?”

A palace man came back from outside, and the concubine let go of me and asked the palace man how the concubine was doing now.

Before the palace man had time to reply, several nuns came in from outside and took the mother and concubine away.

I have never known what mistake my mother-in-law made. My father wanted to lock her up and not let me see her. He also asked me to live in the palace of Empress Hui.

Empress Hui was born beautiful. She and Empress Liu were sisters. The emperor liked them, so the people in the palace were also very kind to them. So after I followed Empress Hui, others were also very kind to me.

Empress Hui taught me how to memorize. She was even better than Mrs. Zhang. I memorized according to the method she told me. It only took me one day to memorize such a long "Teacher's Guide".Mrs. Zhang praised me in class. My father heard about it and also praised me for being smart.

In the past, my father rarely went to his mother's palace, but he often came to Empress Hui. I was afraid of him at first, but Empress Hui comforted me: "Don't be afraid, he is your father, he is a tiger, and you are also a little kid." Where's the tiger?" Later, I was able to walk gracefully in front of my father.

The mother-in-law was imprisoned for two years and was finally released.

At that time, I already understood that the concubine was framed for being punished. It took two years for the truth to come out.

But my father still allowed me to be raised in Empress Hui’s palace. My father felt that Empress Hui raised me well and treated me better than in my mother’s palace.

Empress Hui asked me what I meant. I thought about it and said, "Jin Hao still wants to follow Empress Hui."

In fact, I want to live with my mother and concubine, but I know that if I go back, I won't be able to see my father often. Only by following Empress Hui can I make progress and make progress, and can I rely on my mother and concubine in the future.

When I was ten years old, there were two happy events.

Empress Hui, who had never been pregnant, became pregnant. My father was very happy and said to me: "Hao'er, you are going to be a brother. You must be more filial to your mother and concubine."

When my father said this, he and Empress Hui looked at me tenderly. I felt like a happy family of three, as if my father was an ordinary father and Empress Hui was my mother.

Another happy event was that Chun Shou picked up a kitten. I secretly kept it in my house and played with the cat in my spare time.

The cat's eyes were different colors and its fur was shiny. Every time I brought out a small fish, it would rush towards me quickly.

That day, I was playing with it in the house, holding a small fish in my hand and hiding behind the door. It searched for a while and didn't find me, so it jumped up to the rafter.

I was about to come out and call it down, but before I could get out from behind the door, it suddenly jumped down from the beam, yelled "meow" and threw down the person who opened the curtain and came in.

When I saw Empress Hui’s dark green skirt, my head exploded with a bang.

The maid who followed her exclaimed: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty——"

When I saw blood flowing out from under Empress Hui, I panicked even more and started crying in fear.

Empress Hui stretched out her hand towards me and said, "Don't cry, Jinhao... don't cry." Then she said to the maid, "Hurry... help me up, don't... make any noise."

Empress Hui’s child is gone.

I returned to my mother and concubine, and my father said that Empress Hui was in poor health and could no longer take care of me.

Half a year later, the mother concubine said to the empress who came to chat with her again: "Concubine Hui finally got pregnant with a baby, but she gave it away so accidentally. It's really pitiful. She will never be able to have children again."

After the concubine who came to chat with me left, I whispered to my mother and concubine: "Empress Hui... Empress Hui's child was born because of my carelessness..."

Before I could finish speaking, my mother-in-law tightly covered my mouth and said to me: "Jinhao, remember, don't tell anyone about this..."

Empress Hui also said the same to me at that time.
