Chapter 353 The Last Dance
Chapter 353 [The Last Dance]
"Yan, this is our Ting'er." The child in her arms quietly handed it to Hongyan. A different expression appeared on Hongyan's cold face. She stretched out her hand with some fear and joy, and gently touched Ting'er's pink face. Ting'er's eyes were a little timid, and her body couldn't help shrinking.
This success aroused the love of the beauty. She stretched out her hand, held the soft and petite body in her arms, and then kissed Ting'er's forehead. At first, Ting'er just looked at her curiously, and finally reached out and touched the red face. The red face smiled at her slightly, and Ting'er immediately reached out and wrapped her neck. , and then leaned in her arms.
Seeing Ting'er's reaction, Zhou Zhichao smiled and whispered, "After all, it's mother and daughter. Ting'er is a little timid and never let strangers hold her. It seems that this kinship can never be changed."
Wenbo also smiled. Looking at the way Hongyan was holding the child, his face was full of happiness. He turned around and gave a deep salute to Zhou Zhichao, and then whispered, "Ting'er was when I took her to the royal sister when I was a child. She was very timid, which made the queen take a lot of money, right?"
"You're really right. When I first came here, I kept crying and quarreling. I cried for many days like Qinger. I was very frustrated and thought I couldn't bring this little thing, but after getting familiar with it, I became very clingy. Now you are going to take her away. I'm really a little reluctant to give up."
Looking at the child he had brought for more than half a year, Zhou Zhichao's heart couldn't help but be a little sore. Qing'er immediately took Zhou Zhichao's hand and whispered, "Father, don't be sad. You still have Qing'er. Qing'er will never leave you."
"Good boy!" One sentence warmed Zhou Zhichao's heart. He bent down and picked up Qinger, and then said to the two people in front of him: "Since you have come to the palace, you'd better go to see the emperor. She is not in good health now. She just suffered from the cold yesterday, but if she knows that you have returned to the palace, she will be very happy for a while."
"This..." Wenbo hesitated a little. After a long time, he whispered with embarrassment, "Although I also want to see the royal sister, our current identity is indeed too **. In order to bring less trouble to the emperor and visit her, it's all. In the future, the matter of the beauty fades, and we are going back. Let's take a look at the royal sister.
Zhou Zhichao knew that what he was referring to was about her rebellion. It's not good to retain her at the moment. Thinking about it, it may really affect the relationship between the emperor and the two countries, so he gave up. He just told him uneasfully, "Well, if you leave now, let me give you a ride. Let's go!"
"How embarrassing!" Wenbo smiled softly, and the beauty also felt a little sorry and said, "Just let the good concubine send us. You are the queen of Dajing. If this matter really spreads, it will be very unfavorable to you."
"So what? You also said that I am the queen. If I can't even be the master of this, isn't this queen just a puppet?" Zhou Zhichao said half seriously and half jokingly. When Wenbo heard that Zhou Zhichao said so, it was not easy to refuse immediately. They just smiled gratefully and acquiesced.
But the wet nurse behind Zhou Zhichao became anxious. As soon as she came in, she saw such a situation and never interrupted, but now she didn't say no. She hurried forward two steps and pulled Zhou Zhichao's sleeve and whispered, "Thousand years old, don't you It can be emotional. When the prince enters the palace, the emperor and he are his own siblings. If the emperor doesn't see him, this holy intention will be unpredictable, and I'm afraid it will bring something unexpected to Chitose.
"I have my own moderation, step back!" Zhou Zhichao answered faintly, and the expression on his face was very calm. No one knew what he was thinking about everywhere. Naturally, she saw the nurse muttering and couldn't help laughing, "Queen Qiansui, in fact, you really don't have to see her off. We will be fine when we leave the palace along the way we come."
"Undefense!" Zhou Zhichao turned around and still smiled. He whispered to the wet nurse. He didn't know what he was saying. There was no need for Hongyan and others to listen carefully. Then he took the lead in walking to the front of everyone and said, "Let's go, I'll see you off."
Hongyan and Wenbo looked at each other. Seeing that Zhou Zhichao was very serious, they did not refute. They silently followed him to the palace gate. Along the way, they met some bodyguards who retreated one after another. Their attitude was very respectful. It seemed that Zhou Zhichao, the queen, was very successful.
When the group came to the gate of the palace, Zhou Zhichao stopped. The three looked at each other. Zhou Zhichao still hugged Tinger reluctantly, and then said, "This goodbye, I don't know when he will meet. The two are deeply envious. I sincerely hope you can be happy."
"Thank you!" The beauty opened her mouth softly. At this time, she didn't know what else she could say. Looking at Zhou Zhichao's still handsome face, she thought of a story with him. It was the first time she felt that she was moved by a man, and it was the first time that she fell in love with a man, but she didn't get him.
She looked at Zhou Zhichao's face, as if she wanted to imprint him in her mind. Wenbo also knew what happened between them. He just silently said nothing, but there was no sadness in his eyes. Zhou Zhichao didn't say anything, and even the beauty didn't say anything. The scene calmed down for a moment, but added a lot of ambiguity.
At this time, the wet nurse trotted all the way, holding a small burden in her arms, and then handed it to Zhou Zhichao. Zhou Zhichao took it over and put it into Wen Bo's hand and said, "Your Highness, although the life of seclusion is free, you two have been served since childhood. At first, I didn't know how to make money. Although this money is not much, I hope I can help you get through the need for a while.
"How can this be good? No, we have silver on us." Wenbo refused. He had already troubled him a lot. It was really not good to owe this debt, but Zhou Zhichao laughed and said, "But it's too little? Or are you embarrassed to take it? I once had such a day. I knew that kind of embarrassment. At the beginning, I was also a young master. Later, my family fell and I really suffered a lot. Take it. There is no shortage of these silver palaces. Just think of it as my personal care.
"That's it! Thank you, Queen Brother!" He bent slightly and saluted before reaching for the silver handed over by Zhou Zhichao. Zhou Zhichao didn't dare to accept such a courtesy from him. He hurriedly turned over and smiled, "It's getting late. Let's go."
"Hmm!" Wenbo nodded and turned her eyes to look at Hongyan. At this time, Hongyan also turned her head. She held Ting'er in one hand, reached out and took Wenbo again, nodded to Zhou Zhichao, and then the two turned away.
Without brocade clothes and gorgeous decorations, but their posture is still elegant and their manners are still noble. Zhou Zhichao was reluctant to turn back, but just looked at them holding hands and leaving. At the same time, the envy in his heart added a little desolation. At this time, the wet nurse was still worried and said, "Queen Qiansui, you are really too kind. I hope the emperor can understand the queen's heart. Don't embarrass you."
"It's okay! I believe that the emperor will not do it. I answered gently, but can't I really do it? In fact, he doesn't know in his heart, but he wants to have a try. What is the position of his queen in the emperor's heart? The emperor can white-headed Mo Yan overnight, spoil him in the lake, and give birth to a princess with Jing Feng, and what about himself?
"Thank you! "Brother Queen!" When Zhou Zhichao's thoughts were still immersed in his own nonsense, a soft voice came to his ear. His body was slightly stunned, and then he turned around and saw Yu Mo's black clothes standing behind him. Although he was talking to himself, his eyes also looked at the disappearing ground of the two beautiful people. Fang.
"How long have you been here?" Unexpectedly, Yu Mo would suddenly appear. Zhou Zhichao was quite uncomfortable. Yu Mo smiled indifferently and said, "I've been here for a while!"
"So... why didn't you send your royal sister?" Zhou Zhichao looked at him in his eyes. He gave himself the feeling that he was like a well-behaved child. He was always timid and always liked to be alone, but when he saw him, Zhou Zhichao's heart suddenly felt much better. After all, Yu Mo... It seemed that he was not as favored, right?
When Zhou Zhichao realized his idea, he was stunned. He hurriedly turned his face and stabilized his mind. At this time, Yu Mo whispered, "I need to say goodbye for thousands of miles. I just hope that they will be fine in the future and don't bring blood and rain to the people of the world. That's enough, but I don't think I will see them leaving so happily. Everything should be fine, right?
Yu Mo's slightly sad voice made Zhou Zhichao feel quite uncomfortable. He nodded slightly and said, "Yes, everything will be fine, everything will be fine."
The lonely moon is in the sky, but there is a faint cold everywhere. The moonlight like water sprinkles on the ground through the branches and leaves, and the wind blows and the leaves flashes with silver light. Under the big tree in the royal garden, there are no palace lamps, no guards, no maidservants, and only two figures looking at each other.
"The sinner heard that the emperor was sick, why did he wear so little?" Hua Feiliu opened his mouth indifferently and looked at Jing Li with heartache and reluctance in his eyes. Jing Li just smiled indifferently and waved his hand carelessly and said, "It's just a small cold. What will happen if there is a magic doctor like Mo Yan on the side? It's just that why do you want to see me? Is it my fault that I promised you to Wanqing?"
"No." He lowered his eyes and looked at Jing Li's alienation from him. He couldn't help but feel a little bitter, but he just said lightly: "The sinner is grateful to the emperor for his marriage and knows more about the emperor's good intentions. The sinner can't repay him. He just wants to thank the emperor when he leaves the palace."
"If you are willing to leave, it means that you have made up your mind. In fact, in this palace, it is just a cage. She is whitewashed very beautiful, and people outside want to come in! But the people inside want to go out. You used to be the best in the world and let you give a slave. You will definitely feel wronged in your heart, but Wanqing is a good girl. You have made an intolerable mistake in the world. I want to let you go, but it is against the national law. Only this one way can return your freedom. You You don't blame me, do you?"
"No, the sinner is grateful to the emperor." Hearing Jing Li's explanation, Hua Feiliu's whole heart was relieved. Although she didn't love herself, she didn't care at all. She lived alone for such a long time. Although he was in the cold palace, he thought a lot. After all this, he was too much.
"You have lost weight." Jing Li stretched out his hand, stroked Hua Feiliu's face, then withdrew his hand and sighed in a low voice, "The cold palace is not a place for people to stay, but tomorrow you can be free. I will definitely give you a grand and lively wedding in front of the ministers, so that you can get married unyielding, okay?"
"No!" Hua Feiliu immediately shook his head and refused without thinking. Seeing Jing's puzzled eyes, he felt that he had overreacted. He hurriedly said, "Sinfu... Caomin can no longer call himself as a sinner. Caomin has only one request. I hope the emperor can complete it."
After saying that, he knelt on the ground with a plop. Jing Li was stunned, but did not come forward to help him up. He just said lightly, "You say it, as long as it's reasonable, I will respond to you."
"Thank you, Emperor." Hua Feiliu kowtowed, and then said, "The grass people made mistakes first. If it is in the previous dynasty or any dynasty, they will be sentenced to capital punishment. Thanks to the protection of the emperor, the grass people can save their lives, but the mistakes that the grass people have made can't be recovered. In the hearts of the ministers, they must not allow the grass people to marry another person. The grass people just want to leave silently. Go, I hope the emperor can do it."
"You... don't want a wedding?" I didn't expect him to be this request, which really surprised Jing Li. Seeing Jing Li's disbelievous eyes, Hua Feiliu smiled indifferently and said, "Although Caomin was born with dust, he has always been proud. I can't choose my origin, but I have always wanted to live proudly. The wedding is just empty. Happiness is real. Happiness in the hearts of the people is that they don't want to cause more trouble to the emperor.
After he finished his words, Jing Li looked at him faintly, still remembering the enchanting figure flying on the stage, and still remembering that when the guests made a scene, he stood in front of him with his not strong body. He still remembered that he entered the palace and danced and sang to himself several times. I still remember... It's just that if life is as good as the first time. How good would that be?
"Okay! I promise you." Jing Lijue's current Hua Feiliu is very different. Although it is still the perfect face, although it is still the handsome face, it is still beautiful and touching, there is no feeling of dust anymore.
"Thank you, Emperor." Hua Feiliu said lightly, and then whispered, "Your Majesty, let the grass people dance the last song for the emperor."
After saying that, he didn't wait for Jing Li to respond, and then danced. Under the moon, he was dressed in a white shirt, and his plain clothes did not have too many brocade patterns. He rotated his body, his long hair swayed with the wind, and his clothes were floating and graceful.
Jing Li couldn't say what she wanted to refuse at this time. She stood under the tree and looked at him and applauded his dance. At the same time, on a whim, she sat cross-legged on the bluestone board and sang in a low voice:
"When is the bright moon? Ask the blue sky for wine. I don't know the palace in the sky. What year is this evening..."
The good times always pass very fast. When Jing Li's singing gradually stopped, and Hua Feiliu's dancing posture was also fixed there. For praise, Jing Li has never been stingy. She clapped her hands and applauded and said, "It's awesome. It's true that you are the first dancer in the world. You are soft and beautiful, floating like a fairy. It's just that you walk. I don't know when I will see your dance again.
"There will be a chance." Hua Feiliu's voice trembled slightly, as if he still gasped after a dance. He took a step forward and looked at Jing Li with bright eyes and said, "Your Majesty, there is something else to give to the emperor before the grass people leave."
"Oh? What is it?" The success of the dance eased his anger, and Jing Li's voice also showed a trace of lightness. Hua Feiliu smiled faintly, reached to his waist, then took out a brocade bag from it, and handed it to Jing Li and said, "The grass people don't know how to redeem their mistakes. This is the place where they have been in contact with the grass people. The people checked it. This map helped the emperor clean up the national detective who was hiding in Dajing.
Jing Li was shocked. He reached out and took the silk, and then opened it with the moonlight. He saw that the icon was very detailed, including how to walk in and how to besiege, there were detailed notes. Jing Li's heart trembled, looked up at Hua Feiliu's eyes, and said sincerely, "Thank you for your concern."
"This is what the grass people should do, your Majesty! The people left, you... take care of it." About to part, Hua Feiliu has thought about such a scene thousands of times, but when it really came to this moment, his heart was still a little painful that he couldn't stand it. He suddenly turned around and was afraid that he would not even have the courage to leave later.
But Jing Li called him at this time and said, "Fei Liu, you... decided to leave tonight?"
Unexpectedly, she could see through her own thoughts. Hua Feiliu was stunned and said awkwardly, "Your Majesty is wise. The people are guilty of serious crimes. I really can't imagine what it will be like to leave Kyoto at dawn."
Jing Li smiled and shook his head helplessly and said, "Whether you leave at night or during the day, you can't go anywhere without me. Come on... take it."
Hua Feiliu was stunned, and then turned around and came back. He reached out and took a piece of small square jade handed to him by Jing Li. He looked carefully in the moonlight. It turned out to be a passing jade charm. The passage jade charm played his role, but it was big or small. With this jade charm, no matter where he went to the Great Jing Kingdom, he could be unimpeded. Including the palace.
It can be seen that this thing is actually very valuable. At that moment, Hua Feiliu became nervous and quickly wanted to return the jade charm to Jing Li. He also said sincerely, "This... This jade charm is too expensive for the grass people to accept it."
"Why can't I accept it? I'll give it to you, and you can take it. Do you still want me to make an imperial edict for you?" Jing Li smiled faintly, but his words were extremely serious. Hua Feiliu was stunned. He raised his eyes and looked at Jing Li and said, "Your Majesty, the grass people once made such a mistake. You gave the grass people this jade charm... Don't you... Aren't you afraid that the grass people are doing bad things with it?"
Jing Li smiled softly, as if he had never thought about what Hua Feiliu had just said. He just answered softly, "If people live in this world all their lives, who won't make small mistakes?" I believe in you."
A word of faith! Receive the heart of Hua Feiliu! What she said was indifferent, but the listener was very moved! Hua Feiliu didn't say anything, but the hand holding the jade charm quietly used his strength. After a long time, he whispered, "Your Majesty, don't worry, the grass people... will never let the emperor down."
