Passerby's daily life

Chapter 295 Happiness (The Finale)

People say that waiting is the longest confession of love, but for Hong Sheng, waiting is also a terrible torment.

He was not afraid of death before, but later, he was so afraid of death.

Fortunately, they succeeded.

Needless to say, the process was a narrow escape. Hong Sheng blocked the knife for King Ke. Although he avoided the critical point, he was almost cut off by one arm.

And this is the second time that Hong Sheng saved King Ke's life.Therefore, after King Ke ascended the throne, he directly appointed Hong Sheng as the commander of the imperial guards, in charge of the three major battalions in the suburbs of Beijing except Jinyiwei.

The capital was sealed off for half a month, and after countless wives and children were separated, everything was settled.

After opening the city gate, Hong Sheng begged King Ke, no, the only thing that should be called His Majesty the Emperor now is to let him personally take his wife and children to Beijing.

The cold-faced emperor known as Emperor Qitai by later generations felt his liver hurt when he saw his confidants who were loyal to him, stood in front of him countless times, and saved his life twice!

"Hong Sheng, let alone how disrespectful your wife is to me, just because of her blatant bullying of the emperor, I can't keep her."

Hong Sheng knelt down in front of the emperor again for Susu, "I am willing to exchange my life for the life of Mrs. Su, and I only ask His Majesty to let Mrs. Su take my two children and live in seclusion in the mountains. Children can have no father, but they cannot There is no mother. I am sorry for the three mothers..."

Speaking of this, Hong Sheng choked up several times, thinking of the little daughter he had never met, and facing such an aggressive emperor, Hong Sheng didn't know whether he regretted or complained in his heart, but his face had a look of "Your Majesty If the minister dies, the minister has no choice but to die."

Emperor Qitai laughed back angrily, "Could it be that in your heart, I am the kind of master who hides all the best? Also, with Su's temperament, if he knew those women in your backyard, he would have given birth to you for you." Son, can she really come back with you?"

Hearing this, Hong Sheng scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty said at the time that those women might be spies, and the minister wanted to protect my daughter-in-law like a jade, and those women had never been touched before.

As for the child, there is one, but it is the orphan of a brother under his command! "

"Okay, okay, you Hong Sheng, you actually...!" The emperor pointed at Hong Sheng for a long while speechless.

If you say that Hong Sheng lied to him, the status of the monarch and his ministers is embarrassing, if you don't do it well, it may be a crime of deceiving the emperor; if you say that Hong Sheng did well, the emperor will not be reconciled.

At this moment, an inner eunuch reported: "Concubine Zhao, please see me!"

It was rare for Emperor Qitai to show a trace of tenderness on his face, he only thought of why Concubine Zhao Gui asked to see him, and wished to say that he was not there.

But thinking of the woman who gave birth to two healthy sons for him and protected him from the knife, no matter how hard the emperor's heart was, he couldn't help but soften his heart.

"Call her in!"

"The concubine pays homage to His Majesty!" A woman in a splendid attire came gracefully, and she got up after hearing the emperor say "Excuse me".

Seeing this, Hong Sheng hurriedly saluted, "I have seen the imperial concubine and empress!"

The woman raised her head, as if she had just seen Hong Sheng, and said in surprise: "Why are you here? You didn't pick up Susu?"

There were two questions in succession, I didn't know what to think of, and the expression on his face became more and more ugly, and then he knelt down to the emperor with a "plop".

"I beg Your Majesty to be merciful. Hong Dutong is now with his beautiful concubine Jiaoer. He thinks he can't see Su Clan anymore. I beg Your Majesty to make the two of them reconcile! This concubine must let Su Clan go far away." , never return to the capital!"

After hearing this, everyone should know who this Concubine Zhao is, right?It was Ruan Shiniang.

If Susu was here, she probably wouldn't be surprised that the original book collapsed to such an extent.

In the original book, Ruan Shiniang had only one son. Although she fell in love with the emperor, due to various reasons, when King Ke ascended the throne, she was only conferred the title of concubine.

But now that Ruan Shiniang was first conferred as a noble concubine, and she also had the title of Zhao, has the emperor already determined that Ruan Shiniang is his true love?

Hong Sheng didn't care much at the moment, when he heard Ruan Shiniang's words, his body froze immediately, looking at Ruan Shiniang as if he was looking at his wife and enemy.No, it's not like it's like, but it's just a wife and enemy.

Hong Sheng knelt down to the emperor again, "Please Your Majesty, I have only Su Shi as a woman in this life, and I only recognize her as a daughter-in-law. I am willing to bear all the responsibilities for Su Shi."

Hearing this, Ruan Shiniang knew that she had misunderstood, and then looked at the emperor silently, "The concubine knows that His Majesty is angry at Su's crime of deceiving the emperor, please forgive me, and the concubine is willing to take the responsibility for my sister!"

At this time, the eunuch who had just reported came in again, "Report to Your Majesty, Concubine Xigui and Concubine Rong are asking to see you!"

emperor:……

What good is that woman whose name is Su but actually is Ruan except for her face?

It's fine to grab a brother from yourself, but now you're still grabbing a woman from him?

And his intuition told him that Concubine Xigui must have come here for that daring liar!
The emperor waved his hand, "Come in, please!"

Concubine Xigui was the former Emperor's Concubine Xi, and Concubine Rong was the Fourth Miss of Song Dynasty. After a ceremony, the two women were also surprised when they saw Hong Sheng.

Concubine Rong showed a sneer on her radiant face, "Didn't Hong Dutong go to pick up Susu? Could it be that Hong Dutong really regretted marrying a maid? But did Hong Dutong forget that my grandmother was a private woman?" I have recognized Susu as my granddaughter."

emperor:……

Sure enough, you and Su Shi are true love!

Hong Sheng: ...

God, earth, I am more wronged than Dou E!
"His Majesty……"

There is a saying that goes, "Men don't flick their tears lightly, they cry when they should cry!
Emperor Qitai looked at Hong Sheng, who was crying tears and snot, and felt ashamed that he followed him, "Go away, don't be ashamed here, go and pick up your wife!"

Hong Sheng kowtowed to the emperor three times with a "bang bang bang", which only made everyone present feel a headache, but Hong Sheng ignored his forehead that was about to bleed, quickly got up, and confessed to the three concubines , exited the King's Landing Palace, and disappeared quickly.

The three women in the King's Landing Hall stared at the emperor for a long while. Concubine Xigui was the late emperor's concubine and the emperor's elder. She waved the ivory fan in her hand, "It's really hot today, Aijia seems a bit If you suffer from heat stroke, don't bother Your Majesty, Ai's family will leave first."

Ruan Shiniang and Fourth Miss Song looked at each other, each of them took one arm of Concubine Xigui, and smiled at the emperor, "Concubines, let's send Concubine Gui back, it's also due to the filial piety of concubines."

The emperor waved his hand feebly, it turned out that this is what it feels like to be "crossed the river and demolished the bridge".It seems that some things still have to wait!
……

Hong Sheng left the palace with his cronies, thinking of the scene in the King's Landing Palace just now, he smiled ironically.

As the saying goes, companionship with a monarch is like companionship with a tiger. What is the use of saving lives? There is no real friendship between a monarch and a minister.

Hong Sheng knew that the emperor was testing him, and the emperor also knew that he knew he would not kill Susu.

Hong Sheng just told the emperor once again what his weakness is.

As for the emperor, he told Hong Sheng again that his weakness was vulnerable to a single blow in his eyes.

Therefore, his darling can only be protected with all his strength!

The ten-mile long street in Changle City is the only way out of the city. Even if Hong Sheng wanted to gallop, he could only restrain his beating heart.

When passing a small three-story building, a gust of wind hit, Hong Sheng subconsciously caught it, and a pink-blue purse appeared in his hand.

I saw a double lotus embroidered on the purse, and under a green lotus leaf were two little fishes kissing.

Hong Sheng raised his head suddenly, and saw the woman on the tall building half-covering her face with a fan, only showing half of her face, but still shockingly beautiful.

Hong Sheng touched his heart that was "thumping, booming" as if it was about to jump out of his chest, and only wondered if he was still in a dream!

The woman took away the round fan and stuck out her tongue mischievously at him, but this time she didn't close the window quickly, but waved inside, and the next second, two little heads appeared in front of the window.

The sun was shining brightly at this moment, which only made Hong Sheng dizzy and at the same time dispelled all the haze in his heart.

Great that you are all here!
that's nice!
