Li Huang

Chapter 127: It's hard to meet when you meet (6)

I stood in front of the window and watched him hit the horse passing by under the window. With such a kind face and smile, I was excited in my heart and tears rolled in my eyes.

The second elder brother immediately raised his head and glanced at the window unintentionally. My heart picked up, and "Boom" jumped. I want him to see it, but I don't want him to see it.

Fortunately, the second brother should have been unintentional. I saw him turning around again, still wearing a gentle smile, and walked forward.

I stretched out my hand to the back and turned it slowly, and my tears fell: "Second brother, how are you?"

Xihe took my shoulders: "Vil, I'll see you in a while."

I smiled apologetically at him: "I know, but I can't help it."

When the last line of soldiers disappeared from sight, I went downstairs side by side with Xi He, returned to Liu Mansion, and waited for Liu Gongzi to take us to the official post.

After a brief lunch in the Liu Mansion, I saw Brother Zhang hurriedly.

"Quickly follow me, Master Liu is waiting. The general entered the city today, but he is very busy."

I put my hair in a bun together, Xihe straightened the Zhengchai and Tianhua for me, and put on a veil to cover my face. Then I went with Big Brother Zhang.

At the gate of the official post, two groups of soldiers stood guard seriously. Holding a sword, his face is serious. Gongzi Liu was standing at the door waiting for us, anxious.

"I know a deputy of the general. I ask him for help, but it seems a bit difficult. After all..." he said, "If you can't get in there at all, I wanted to find a way to take you there for dinner, but Lord Wu dare not..."

Before he finished his words, Xihe frowned: "What we should think of, the general will not be so easy to see." After thinking about it, "I don't know Brother Liu, can I have a pen and paper?"

Liu Gongzi looked surprised and confused, but still took us to a side room.

Xihe wrote a few words on the paper and folded them, "Brother Liu, please find a way to give this to the general."

"This is?" Liu Gongzi flipped the note in his hand, looking at Xi He's eyes more alert.

Xi He smiled indifferently: "Brother Liu, don't ask, if there is a chance in the future, I will tell Brother Liu personally."

Liu Gongzi thought for a while, and suddenly smiled: "You want to recommend yourself to the general? But you don't ask for an official career..." He shook his head: "Yes, thanks to your brother's talents, I was wronged by staying in Anyang."

Seeing that he had his own ideas, Xihe didn't point out, just smiled.

Young Master Liu has gone, as he is the chief master of Anyang prefect, if he wants to see the second brother, he still has a chance.

Soon, Young Master Liu came, behind him were two soldiers with full armor.

"General, please." The two soldiers were very respectful.

A light smile appeared on Xi He's face, shaking his robe, and strode out. For a moment, I seemed to see Yu Wang Xihe standing in front of him again.

Liu Gongzi was also taken aback for a moment, and could not help taking a step back. Xihe turned around, with a gentle smile, "Brother Liu, together."

I followed, very nervous, I could only lower my head, fortunately there was a hood to cover, but I was afraid that someone would recognize me. After all, this is the army commanded by the second elder brother, and among his cronies, there are not none who have been to Ling Mansion.

Soon he walked to a separate courtyard, where the guards were densely guarded, and they seemed to be stronger than those at the gate of the official post. I know that this is where the second brother rests.

As soon as I walked to the door, I saw my second brother hurried out, walked a few steps in front of Xihe, and bowed on one knee to salute: "Chenzhen West General Ling Hongxiang, see King Yu. Thousand years old lord."

"Swiss", the guards in the two rows put away their swords and knelt down together: "The prince is Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose."

Xihe smiled helplessly, he must have never thought that his second brother would welcome him like this. But at the moment, he can only support the second brother in a few steps.

"The general doesn't need to be polite, please get up." He waved his hand again: "Get up all the time."

However, the second brother didn't know the situation in Beijing, and he was surrounded by soldiers. After all, Xi He was the prince, so the courtesy he should have are naturally not to be spent.

Liu Gongzi was almost stunned. "Wang Yu...you are King Yu...that..." He stared at me blankly, and the second brother set his eyes on me.

"You..." His tone was full of shock and disbelief: "You are..."

I stood where I was, letting tears fall like broken pearls. I slowly nodded and bowed slightly: "I have seen the general."

The second brother shook his body when he heard my voice, and stepped forward: "Why are you here?!"

I looked around: "Here..."

The second brother nodded his head comprehensibly and looked at the surrounding guards and said: "Today's matter, if you miss a word, military law will deal with it!" His voice is beyond doubt, and those who can be guarded outside his hospital must be his. The soldiers, only loyal to his dead soldiers.

Xihe glanced at the trembling son Liu who was kneeling on the ground, and lifted him up with his own hands: "Brother Liu, I hope that you will never tell me who I am." Although he was smiling, his tone was full of oppression. .

Liu Gongzi trembled and nodded like rice.

"You are waiting for us outside." The second brother left a word and winked at the person next to him. A guard stepped forward: "Master Liu, please here."

When I entered the room, as soon as I took off the drapery hat, my second brother knelt on the ground, his voice was very solemn and solemn: "The minister pays homage to the empress."

I held back the grief in the corner of my eyes, and my voice was aching: "Brother, I...have..."

I couldn't speak, only tears could not stop falling.

"Hongxiang, get up first." Xihe stretched out his hand to help him.

The second elder brother knelt down and said, "The prince, mother, please give the minister an explanation." He uttered every word with difficulty, showing tolerance.

"Brother, get up. We just want to come and see you, maybe, for the last time." I choked up and reached for him.

But the second brother still did not move: "The last side, the minister does not understand."

He looked up at me: "I heard from the front that you were pregnant, and I was overjoyed. I can see you when I think about returning to Beijing. But, you are here now, you..." He glanced at Xi He: "Master, you shouldn't Rest in the palace and go back to the southwest? How are you here?"

I knelt across from him and looked at him closely with sad eyes.

"Vir, how can you kneel in front of me? You are the queen, get up!" The second brother said sharply.

"Brother, I am no longer a queen." My heart beats so hard, I know how much reaction it will cause me to say this. However, I have to say.

"What are you talking about!" The blue veins on the second brother's forehead burst and stared at me: "You said, you are not a queen? How can you not be a queen?"

I smiled faintly: "Not only am I not a queen, I am no longer Ling Xuewei."

The second brother stood up immediately after hearing this, and pulled me up again, "You said you are no longer Ling Xuewei? Then who are you? Who wouldn't let you be Ling Xuewei?"

"I'm not Shen Xihe anymore." Xihe smiled: "Hongxiang, don't get excited, we will tell you slowly."

"Brother, it's Wei Er." I lowered my head and apologized at first.

"Don't tell me who is right and wrong, you tell me first, what is going on?" The second brother sat at the table, seeming to have calmed down the initial shock. But his clenched fists and the unfolding brows show that he is not at peace.

Xihe stood behind me, gently hugging me: "Vir, let me do it."

I shook my head: "Xihe, let me say it." After struggling for a while, I finally said: "Brother, you know the scene of my first entry into the palace. The emperor doesn't like our Ling family, so On the day of marriage, I didn't even see what he was like, so I was confined to Kunning Palace."

The second brother frowned and nodded: "I'm wronged you, Wei Er."

I shook my head: "Although I was restrained, I didn't want to stay in the palace. By chance, I met Xi He at Yanboting."

"When we first met, I was shocked by Wei Er." There was a smile on Xi He's lips: "I thought she was just a concubine in the harem who hadn't met the king. Although she was not courteous, she couldn't bear it. Stay attracted to her."

I turned my head and looked at Xi He Maimai, and he also looked at me with affectionate eyes.

The second brother coughed softly, "Master, you know, this shouldn't be."

Xihe nodded: "I've been struggling, but I can't help it. I always think that she is a lowly concubine, I can ask the emperor to be my concubine, regardless of her origin. How?" His gaze stayed on my face, gentle as water: "But I thought again, if I beg her to come, I am afraid of wronging her, and afraid that the emperor will see her and will not let her leave. Just as there was war in the southwest, I thought, if I return victorious, I won’t want any reward from the emperor, but only ask one of her. Then, if I will make a war, the emperor will not refuse."

"So the prince, did you take the initiative to invite Ying?" The second brother raised his eyebrows and asked, with no lack of emotion in his words.

Xihe smiled and said nothing, but I was shocked. It turned out that Xihe took the initiative to ask to go to the southwest, even if he knew that the land of the southwest was barren and miasma, the war was not easy. However, I went anyway.

"I ventured out of the palace to send him off at that time, but I always held back and didn't tell him who I was." I said softly, "I'm afraid I said it, which will affect his battle. But I didn't think about it. He returned victorious, what should I do. At that time, I just wanted to drag it on and I could always find a middle ground.

"But I want to come back soon, so I can ask Brother Huang to marry you." Xi He smiled.

"Master, you spent four months calming down the war in the southwest, and that's why?" The second brother's eyes fell deeply on Xi He: "As far as I know, the battle is not easy."

"Easy is not easy, all people think." Xihe said calmly: "If I can do it, I will try my best to do it. It doesn't feel difficult." He looked at me and said, "Not to mention. , I promised to Wei Er that I will be back in four months."

I listened to his words, but there was a bit of bitterness in my heart. When he was fighting on the battlefield, did he know that it was just an impossible wish?

"Later, I returned from victory, and before the celebration banquet, I learned of the identity of Wei Er." Xi He's eyes were full of sadness and despair, which was his state of mind at the time. "At that time, I knew that unless we all abandon our identities, otherwise, we will not be together. But, even if we want to abandon those identities, how can we abandon them?"

"After that, I accidentally met the emperor." My tone was as if there was nothing at all. "He didn't ask who I was, he left me in Pengdao Yaotai and gave me pets." I closed my eyes, luxurious The unreal wonderland passed by my eyes one by one, "But when I heard that Xi He was seriously ill, how can I accept the emperor's favor with ease?" I smiled: "But I don't know, why does he know , I am Ling Xuewei."

"The fairy that the emperor was looking for in the harem was you," the second brother asked.

I nodded: "That was the night I danced for Xihe before I sent Xihe on the expedition. I didn't expect to meet him at Qujingtongyou. He regarded me as a fairy." I explained.

The second brother lowered his eyes, as if thinking of something, but did not speak.

I continued: "You know what happened later, brother, after I returned to Kunning Palace, I restored the identity and power of the queen, and the power of the Ling family was unmatched."

"Could it be that the emperor treats you badly?" The second brother's eyes were full of puzzlement.

I glanced at Xi He and struggled, but I still spoke out.

"No, the emperor... he treats me well..." Looking down at a cup of tea in his hand, the tea is cold, and there is a cold feeling in his hands. Take a sip, full of bitterness.

"The emperor loved me so much. Even the pregnant Liu concubine at the time could not overshadow my limelight." I seemed to be talking about an irrelevant person: "I am the queen and the daughter of the Ling family. Naturally no one dares to provoke my status. But three thousand pets are three thousand charcoal fires, burn me!"
