The big man in the feminist world should marry

Chapter 197 Ten Years After Ten Years
Five years later.

The capital of Great Zhou was bustling.

In a restaurant, a storyteller was sitting on a chair, and she slapped the case and spoke vividly.

"Five years ago, we had troubles both internally and externally during the Great Zhou Dynasty. Inside, the eldest princess and the second princess joined forces to rebel and killed the former emperor. Rebels rose up everywhere. Among them, Xuanyuan Wuqing was the most ferocious along the way. The United Kingdom sent troops to invade our Dazhou border,

Seeing that our Dazhou is about to perish, fortunately, General Yun and her husband Yun Xiaolang, who is the current regent of our Dazhou, turned the tide and helped the three emperors put down the rebellion. He was seriously injured and has been unconscious until now, but fortunately our regent is a god who came down to earth, carrying a thunderbolt to kill all directions,

Successively subdued Xuanyuan Wuqing's rebels from all walks of life, and then gathered all the troops to resist the coalition forces of King Zhennan and Jinxia. The Yun family army, various rebels, and local armies under his command were only 50, and the number was reduced by half. This discerning person saw that the defeat was doomed. At that time, many people questioned how a man who was the regent was able to lead such a large army An army defeats a million female soldiers!The Prince Regent is in danger!The Great Zhou's subjugation is imminent! "

The storyteller stopped abruptly.

Many diners were tickled by what she said. Although they all knew what happened later, everyone was still very happy to hear about the great achievements of the regent. After all, the good life now is the peace of the world created by the regent.

"I've given you all the money, let's talk about it quickly." Everyone knew the rules, and took out some scraps of silver and threw them into the job bowl in front of the storyteller.

After a while, the storyteller looked at the rice bowl full of coins with a smile, and continued with a smile.

"We all know that the regent is not an ordinary person. He is the god of thunder. He first killed a few prestigious female generals to shock the army. After no one dared to question him, he passed on all kinds of thunder and lightning mana. What kind of concept is that for our generals of the Great Zhou Dynasty? They are 50 little Thunder God soldiers with great supernatural powers. How much effort will it take to deal with a mere 100 million mortals?

Since then, under the command of the Prince Regent, our army of Great Zhou has successively wiped out the King of Zhennan, the Kingdom of Jin, and the Kingdom of Xia. It was also from then on that the world that had been divided for hundreds of years was united again. Ah, be good to our common people, we don’t have to fight anymore, we can all live in peace and prosperity in peace, all this is brought to us by the Regent, everyone, we must always be grateful to the Regent! "

"Long live! Long live the Regent! Long live!"

"Long live! Long live the Regent! Long live!"

"Long live! Long live the Regent! Long live!"

I don't know who shouted first, and soon everyone in the restaurant was shouting long live the regent, and then it spread, and the whole capital was cheering.

……

Inside the Shang Palace.

After Xuanyuan Wuqing surrendered to Bai Ziyu, she is now the King of Shang in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

She is already a 28-year-old woman, but she has never married a husband, let alone accepted a servant.

She was sitting at the main seat in the living room, and many of them were high-ranking officials and ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and most of them belonged to the surrendered faction.

A female general quickly walked into the hall and saluted.

Xuanyuan Wuqing nodded.

The female general said neither humble nor overbearing: "King, my lords, for some reason today, the people inside and outside the capital are shouting 'Long live the Regent'."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then they all talked excitedly.

Xuanyuan Wuqing also smiled.Ever since her younger brother and Liu Yaoyao passed away, she hadn't laughed again, and it seemed that she was very happy about the Long Live King Regent.

……

Inside the palace.

The naughty 14-year-old girl she once was is no more.

Ye Qingyu wears a crown on her head, she has lost her immature girlhood and already has a bit of the majesty of an emperor.She was at her desk reviewing various memorials.She is now the emperor of the Great Zhou, and this is her responsibility.However, anyone with a little background knows that she is just a puppet emperor, so the contents of these memorials are dispensable.

There was a sudden commotion outside the hall.

She stopped reviewing.

Soon, several relatives of the royal family arrived in front of the queen under the guidance of the palace man.

After saluting, the old woman who seemed to be almost 80 years old said angrily, "Your Majesty, something is wrong, Your Majesty."

"Old Aunt Huang, don't be in a hurry, speak slowly if you have something to say." Ye Qingyu went down to support the old woman herself.A few palace men with sharp eyes quickly brought stools for the old woman to sit on.

After the old woman sat down, she sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you don't know. People in and around the capital are now clamoring for the regent to be the great treasure of our Ye family!"

Ye Qingyu is no longer a frizzy little girl.Her eyes changed a few times, and she said calmly: "Anyway, I am just a puppet emperor, and his regent is the god of thunder that the people of Dazhou love most. I am willing to give it up to him."

"This, this can't be allowed, Your Majesty, how can you say such a thing?" The old woman was anxious, and her royal relatives were also anxious.Everyone was talking and arguing, but no one could do anything about the regent.Today, the regent is a man who can cover the sky with one hand.

Ye Qingyu was also annoyed.

She became irritable and shouted: "Enough!"

The royal relatives immediately fell silent.

"All of you claim to be relatives of the emperor, but now you are arguing like small people in the market. What's the use of your arguing, can you let the regent return to me?" Ye Qingyu said coldly.

The old woman looked lonely, and said: "The king humiliated the minister to death! The king insulted the minister to death! The old minister is incompetent and unable to share the worries of your majesty, but even if the old minister dies ten thousand times, he will not be able to let the regent return to his majesty. If we want our Ye family to give way, our Ye family will be doomed! Huh huh!"

The old woman began to cry.

"What can I do!" A county king panicked.

The others panicked too.

After thinking for a while, Ye Qingyu calmly said: "If he wants it, I will give it to him."

"But, but..." The old woman didn't know what to do.

"It's nothing! Come here, prepare a pen, ink, paper and inkstone for me, I want to give way!" Ye Qingyu said majesticly.

Many of the royal relatives burst into tears.I don't know whether I am crying because my glory and wealth are about to be lost, or because my emperor is humiliated.

For these years, regarding the death of her family members, Ye Qingyu's grief cannot be expressed in words, and she can't do other things in normal times.

She paused every word, and her pen was clean and powerful.

The old woman stood beside her in tears, and when Ye Qingyu finished writing the abdication edict, she personally handed it to Ye Qingyu with the emperor's seal.

"Your Majesty." The old woman was so sad that she couldn't help herself.

"Old Auntie, you don't need to be too sad. This world is originally home to the capable. Our Ye family is now incompetent and we have to give up. Now it's time. Fortunately, our family has not been slaughtered. I also believe in the regent The king will not kill innocent people indiscriminately." Ye Qingyu comforted him.

"Your Majesty, if you really want to abdicate, the old woman has one more thing to ask." The old woman hesitated to speak, but finally said it.

Ye Qingyu took the emperor's seal and stamped it without hesitation.She was relieved that the days of this puppet emperor were finally over.

"Tell me." Ye Qingyu said.

The palace man at the side stepped forward and carefully received the abdication edict.

Seeing that the matter could not be reversed, the old woman held back the grief in her heart and said: "Your Majesty, the old woman also believes that the regent is not the kind of person who kills innocent people indiscriminately, but there are not many civil and military officials left in the Manchu Dynasty who are loyal to our Great Zhou." Well, many of them are the thieves who surrendered to the Regent five years ago. Some of them have blood feuds with our royal family. The old woman is afraid that the regent will listen to the villain's words, which may be bad for our royal family! So the old woman thought..."

Ye Qingyu frowned, and asked: "Old Aunt Huang, please speak directly."

The old woman knelt down, and some of the royal relatives behind her were puzzled, but they all knelt down too.

Ye Qingyu went to help the old woman, but was rejected.

The old woman said: "Your Majesty, the old woman begs you to condescend to marry the regent and keep my Ye clan safe."

The other relatives of the royal family came to their senses, and quickly shouted: "Your Majesty, I implore you to condescend to marry the Regent, and keep my Ye clan safe."

For a moment, the flood of feelings that had been sealed up broke Ye Qingyu's inner defense line like a flood, and her love for Bai Ziyu could no longer be concealed.However, he doesn't like her at all.How could she condescend?

Ye Qingyu helped the old woman up with all his strength, and the slight sadness flashed past, and he said: "Old Aunt Huang, you all get up quickly, it is my and my responsibility to protect the Ye family, and I have a duty to do it, but the regent will not let you go." He's not an ordinary man, even if I condescend to marry him, he won't."

The old woman grabbed Ye Qingyu's hand with all her strength, cried bitterly, and said, "Your Majesty, you must not underestimate yourself. You are the most honorable woman in the world. It is condescending to marry a man. No matter how powerful his regent is, he is still a man." Man, how could you humiliate you like that? Don't worry, even if the old woman puts her life to the test, she will let you marry the Prince Regent without any grievances."

"Really, is it possible?" Ye Qingyu was moved.She loves Bai Ziyu more than she hates, not to mention that she has no choice but to marry Bai Ziyu to protect the Ye clan.She has no choice.

"Your Majesty, it is possible. The old woman has issued a military order here, and this will definitely be done. However, the old woman needs the cooperation of Your Majesty. We can use the courtiers who are loyal to the Great Zhou and your abdication edict, as long as it is done properly. , it is actually very simple to ask the regent to marry you."

"Then what if he doesn't want to?"

"My lord, there is nothing in this world that can follow people's wishes. No matter how powerful he is, he can't be an enemy of half the world!"

"Okay, I'll listen to the old queen's arrangement."

……

After half a month.

The whole city was full of noise, and everyone was discussing the matter of the empress marrying the regent and abdication.Under a wave of operations by someone with a heart, it is now the queen who marries first and then abdicates.

Many people agreed with these two matters, and many ministers gave memorials to the regent.

But the regent refused to accept either of these things.Because of this, many ministers were imprisoned by the regent personally ordered.The regent is kind, and he did not kill anyone to establish his prestige.

The next morning, the Prince Regent's Palace.

21-year-old Bai Ziyu fists and kicks in the martial arts arena.Beside him is his 12-year-old younger sister Bai Ziling.Bai Ziling has grown into a lovely young girl, her fists and kicks are very powerful, and she has the air of a little chivalrous girl.

The two big servants, Yun Xin and Xiao He, have been arranged by Bai Ziyu to get married for nothing.Now serving Bai Ziyu is a boy about 15 years old.

After Bai Ziyu finished practicing martial arts, the little manservant promptly handed over a basin of warm water with a towel.

Bai Ziling hopped over and wrung out the towel for his brother himself, and wiped the sweat off his face.

"Don't make trouble, brother, I can wipe it myself." Bai Ziyu followed his sister to wipe for a while, then grabbed the towel and wiped the sweat by himself.

There was another little maid standing nearby, this was specially arranged by Bai Ziyu for his younger sister.The little maid does the same thing as the little manservant.Bai Ziling didn't have the job of wiping his brother's face, so he could only do it by himself.

Soon, both siblings went to the restaurant.

There are already family members waiting in the restaurant.

Mother Bai Lingxi and father Mu Le'an have returned to the capital to live in seclusion since they surrendered to Bai Ziyu in Xuanyuan Wuqing.

The second younger sister, Bai Ziqi, is 17 years old, slim and graceful, reaching the age to talk about marriage.People from the palace come to propose to the second sister every day, but Bai Ziyu thinks that the second sister is not old enough to let her marry a husband, and he thinks that it is better for the second sister to choose someone he likes instead of a matchmaker.

The family of five ate quietly.

After a while, Bai Lingxi opened his mouth and said, "Ziyu, what do you think about the emperor's marriage and abdication to you?"

"Mother, this porridge is not bad, you should eat more." Bai Ziyu said to him without hesitation.

"Yes, sir, what Ziyu said is right, the porridge this morning is really good, sir, please eat more." Mu Le'an said hastily.

Unexpectedly, Bai Lingxi slapped the chopsticks on the table, looked at Bai Ziyu and said, "You are the powerful regent now, it seems that my mother is not qualified to know your thoughts."

Bai Ziyu's face turned ugly.He put down the bowls and chopsticks, talked and said: "Since mother wants to know, let me tell you what I think. I don't want to marry anyone except Wuyou! Oh, by the way, I'm full, you eat slowly."

After Bai Ziyu finished speaking, he got up to leave.

Both sisters Bai Ziqi and Bai Ziling dared not speak.

"Clap" sound.

Bai Lingxi slapped the table with one hand, stood up angrily, and said to Bai Ziyu's back: "Everyone in the world knows that you and General Yun are very affectionate, and Bai Ziyu is the only one in your heart, but she is already in a coma It's been five years, five years, Ziyu, mother, I won't talk about this now, but just talk about the emperor's marriage and abdication, both of which are state affairs and will affect the peace of the world, and you What did the regent do? You actually put those ministers who advised you into prison, what are you doing!? Do you want to mess up the world again to be at ease? Don’t you feel at ease? Does she really want to see images of people being displaced and corpses strewn across the fields?"

Bai Ziyu stood silent.

The atmosphere was eerily quiet.

After a while, Bai Ziqi, who has read a lot of poetry and books, couldn't help but said: "Brother, I know that you and your sister-in-law have a deep relationship, but for the sake of the world, brother, shouldn't you give up something? Of course, sister, I am very selfish when I say that. But sometimes God just wants to make things go against your will, bro."

"I'll think about it again." Bai Ziyu left without saying a word.

……

Ten years later.

The Great Zhou Dynasty has become history, and the prosperous age of the Great Han Dynasty has arrived.

The night shrouded the entire Dahan Palace.

With a big belly, Ye Qingyu walked into the hall with a cloak, her gait was light.Behind her were several court ladies, some of whom were eating snacks, while others were stewing soup with sugar water.

Bai Ziyu, the first emperor of the Han Dynasty in the hall, was holding the memorial and carefully reviewing it, but he didn't notice anyone coming in.

The maids were silent like cicadas, Ye Qingyu quietly walked behind Bai Ziyu, put a cloak on him, and said softly: "Your Majesty, it's late at night, be careful of catching a cold."

Bai Ziyu came back to his senses.He looked up and said, "Yu'er, why are you here? Didn't I let you rest in the room kindly?"

Ye Qingyu tightened the cloak for Bai Ziyu, she leaned her face on Bai Ziyu's shoulders, her face pressed against his, and said softly: "Your Majesty, Yu'er is worried that you will catch a cold, so I specially brought you a cloak. I don't know if you are hungry or not, but Yu'er even asked someone to bring some snacks and soup."

Bai Ziyu hesitated for a moment, took her little hand, put it in his big hand, and patted her little hand with the other hand, and said softly: "You have a heart."

……

Another 20 years later.

Bai Mengyun, a 20-year-old grand daughter-in-law of the Han Dynasty, is about to marry her husband.

Bai Mengyun liked her future husband very much, and she walked very lightly on the way to the palace of the mother and concubine.

The unreasonable third princess of the past is no longer there, but there is an extra lady playing the piano.Time is cruel, and there are already some wrinkles on the lady's face.

"Concubine mother." Bai Mengyun shouted loudly before reaching the small pavilion where Ye Qingyu was playing the piano.

Seeing her daughter, Ye Qingyu stood up happily and walked out of the pavilion.

"Mengyun, you're here." Ye Qingyu took her daughter's hand and looked around her.

Bai Mengyun dragged his concubine back to the pavilion and sat down.

The maid served tea.

Bai Mengyun drank a cup.

"How is Mengyun? Are you satisfied with meeting King Shang's adopted son this time?" Ye Qingyu asked.Xuanyuan Haotian used to be the name of Xuanyuan Wuqing's younger brother, but now it is the name of her adopted son.

"Mother Concubine, my daughter, I secretly went to Shangdi to see him this time. He is very interesting. I like him very much. I am very satisfied with Father's proposal of marriage to me this time." Bai Mengyun said excitedly.

"It's fine if you're satisfied, but you're brave enough. You've resisted your father's imperial orders several times. Every time, mother and concubine are worried about you. I'm afraid that your father and daughter will break up. That's it. You also like Haotian, so you have to accept some snacks in the future, and stop causing troubles and annoying your father." Ye Qingyu earnestly said.I don't know when it started, she became a woman who is a husband and a goddaughter.She was once the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Hmph! Father is really disgusting. My child just can't figure it out. Why does father always only care about Empress Yun? Many ministers proposed to have a double empress. Father refuses. You are not worth it for the concubine mother, whoever tells him not to make the concubine mother happy, the child just wants to make him angry." Bai Mengyun said angrily.

"You, you, when did the concubine mother say that she was unhappy? Concubine mother is very happy now, don't meddle in the affairs of concubine mother and your father, take good care of yourself, and learn more from your father How to govern the world, this heaven will be handed over to you later, you have to have some snacks." Ye Qingyu said.

"My son knows, my son has always been very motivated, and I have learned a lot about my father's methods." Bai Mengyun said proudly.

……

Another 30 years.

Bai Ziyu's parents have passed away for more than two months.

The sun was setting, in a royal cemetery outside the capital.

Three elderly people who are very old are strolling around the cemetery.

They are one man and two women.

One of the men was also struggling to push a wheelchair, on which sat a young Sleeping Beauty.

A large group of imperial guards not far away stared nervously at the three old men, for fear that something might happen to them.After all, the status of the three of them is extremely noble, and the sleeping beauty in the wheelchair is the same.They are the 81-year-old Supreme Emperor Bai Ziyu, the 79-year-old imperial concubine Ye Qingyu, the 88-year-old old businessman Xuanyuan Wuqing, and the 85-year-old general Yun Wuyou.

The wrinkled Bai Ziyu pushed the wheelchair onto a lawn. The lawn was a bit steep. Ye Qingyu and Xuanyuan Wuqing beside him helped him together.

It took a lot of effort for the three of them to push the wheelchair and Yun Wuyou on it up.Yun Wuyou has been in a coma for 65 years, and there is no sign of waking up.But I don't know why, she has been eternally young.

Not far from the lawn stands a monument, which says the tomb of Nalan Zhiqing.

The three of them just sat on the grass, watching the sunset in the west, talking about the past.And Yun Wuyou didn't open his mouth all this time, he seemed like a silent listener.

……

Another ten years.

In January, the five tigers of the Yun family passed away one after another, and none of them waited until Yun Wuyou woke up.

In April, Xuanyuan Wuqing, the old merchant king who never married, passed away in the middle of the night before he could turn one hundred.

Before she died, she kept chanting Bai Ziyu's name, but Bai Ziyu was too old to arrive at Shang Wang's mansion in time. The two of them, who had become married in a daze because of Xuanyuan Haotian's nonsense, ended up marrying each other. I couldn't see you for the last time.

This is a regret in Bai Ziyu's heart.

……

In the same year, July.

Ye Qingyu is seriously ill.

Bai Ziyu was by Ye Qingyu's side day and night.

Ye Qingyu lay in Bai Ziyu's arms, he held her tenderly, and sang a song that didn't belong to this world, where time and love never met.She couldn't understand many lyrics, but she never felt that her heart was so close to him than this time.She talked a lot with him.

The moon is cloudy and sunny, and people will eventually get sick, get old and die.

Half a month later, Ye Qingyu died of illness.

Before she passed away, Ye Qingyu told Bai Ziyu that she was very satisfied in this life.

The 60-year-old emperor Bai Mengyun had a big fight with his father, and he arbitrarily named his mother and concubine the empress dowager.

The next day, the Empress Dowager Bai Ziyu agreed, and the two empress dowagers stood side by side.

Empress Dowager Ye is virtuous and virtuous, and she has contributed a lot to the prosperity of the great man.

Her death, the whole country mourns.

……

In the same year, November.

Bai Ziyu's second younger sister, Bai Ziqi, begged her elder brother to read an article to her before she died, and Bai Ziyu naturally agreed.The second sister closed her eyes peacefully while her brother chanted.

……

In the same year, December.

Bai Ziyu's younger sister, Bai Ziling, died while Bai Ziyu was humming nursery rhymes from her childhood.After the little girl closed her eyes, he sang "Little Rabbit, Be Good".

……

In the same year, in late December, Bai Ziyu fell seriously ill, and the whole country was worried, and he almost died.

……

Another ten years.

The sun was setting again.

The second emperor of the Han Dynasty, Bai Mengyun, died suddenly at the age of 70. He passed away before his father Bai Ziyu. The father and daughter had not yet reconciled. Bai Mengyun felt that his father did not love his mother even when he died.Bai Mengyun's daughter, Bai Ziyu's 47-year-old granddaughter, was crowned Dabao, and after that, he was ruled by the third emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Bai Ziyu, who was too old to walk, had someone carry him and Yun Wuyou to Nalan Zhiqing's cemetery again.

They came to the shore of an artificial lake not far from Nalan Zhiqing's tombstone.Yun Wuyou was still in a coma, she was sitting in a wheelchair as if she had fallen asleep.

Bai Ziyu asked someone to leave a jug of poisoned wine and waved everyone away.He didn't know if it was a flashback, and he walked towards Nalan Zhiqing's tombstone with the wine jug, sprinkled half of it, and said, "I've thought about it for a long time, and I just found out today that I have you in my heart, and this half jug of poisonous wine It can be regarded as the grievance between us is over, I hope you will not meet me again in the next life, and die with regret."

His words seemed to be speaking to Xuanyuan Wuqing.

Bai Ziyu turned and left.He came to Yun Wuyou's body, looked at her still young face, and couldn't help but shed tears in his eyes.

He squatted in front of her, caressed her smooth face, and said with tears: "85 years, I've been waiting for you for 85 years and you still haven't woken up. I'm 101 years old, I'm a hundred Old man! What happened to you? Did you go to another world? Just like me? Have you met another me? Are you happy? Can you tell me?"

No one responded to him.

"Hey, it seems meaningless to ask these questions now. You don't have to worry about me too much. Although I have many regrets in my life, the biggest regret is that I can't say a word to you again, but I have no regrets anymore. I have lived If you live long enough, you will be old and not dead, and you will be a thief.

Although I have lived enough, I am always afraid that you will wake up after I leave, so I have been living desperately, until now even my daughter has passed away before me, I am tired, and I don’t intend to continue living, but I can't let you go, I'm afraid that when you wake up one day, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes. Those people you used to know have all left this world. Can you have the courage to continue living?I don't know if you have the courage, but I know, I'm selfish, I don't want you to live alone, and I don't want you to bear that unspeakable loneliness, so I made a decision that I've been thinking about for many years , I decided to let you free, and at the same time let me free myself, do you think it is okay? "

Just like the past 85 years, the sleeping Yun Wuyou didn't answer him.

This time, he was not disappointed, he smiled, smiled in relief, put his mouth on the poisonous wine in the bowl, and gave it to her.

He didn't finish all of it, and he swallowed some of it himself.

He lifted her out of the wheelchair and let her snuggle up to him.

The lake is sparkling.

Look from behind them.

They are like a loving couple snuggling together by the lake watching the sunset in the distance.

down west.
