Chapter 74 Volume 1 End

When Shen Coral saw that his identity was recognized, he was so ashamed that he couldn't wait to find a crack to get in. She took Caiyin to kneel on the ground and cried to Mrs. Ye, "Old lady, you haven't seen me today, please!"

Although Mrs. Ye was angry that she did not distinguish between right and wrong, she was very unhappy to see that she was so desolate. She reached out and pulled Shen Coral up. "What are you talking about? If your eldest sister knew, wouldn't it be blamed for standing by?

Shen Coral refused to stand up and cried. Everyone in Weifu has been with her for several years. Seeing her situation, they are a little sad. For a moment, except for Qi Yunjing, who suddenly looked at her husband with bright eyes, the people present couldn't help sighing.

Ye Dongyu forced her to help her up. "After the mansion fell, the master and the uncle sent someone to find you, but those soldiers also said that you left with a maid, and no one knew where you went. Unexpectedly, you came here quietly." She took Shen Coral's hand and looked at Mrs. Ye. She nodded slightly and turned to look at Shen Coral, "Sister, come back with us!"

The tears on Shen Coral's face were not dry, but he shook his head very firmly.

Seeing that Mrs. Ye frowned and looked disapproving, she quickly knelt down again. "Coral used to be confused and hurt the heart of the old lady and the master, but now she has no face to go back to the Anguo Mansion."

When Mrs. Ye heard her say this, her face softened slightly, "You girl, will the master and I still hold a grudge against you? It's not all your fault. When you and your sister and brother came to the house, I didn't take good care of you. If you were three points wrong, I would be seven points wrong. That's all old things, don't worry about it. Now that Xiangfu has been defeated, you still come back to live at home. No one dares to say anything.

Shen Coral still shook his head, "The old lady said so, and I have no place to stand. I was ignorant when I was young, but now I'm frustrated. I just want to spend the rest of my life in this mountain. I really don't want to go back to the beautiful and prosperous place.

Mrs. Ye and Ye Dongyu looked at each other and there was nothing they could do for a moment. Wei Jue whispered in Mrs. Ye's ear, "Since the third cousin has made up her mind, it is not convenient for us to force others. After all, she is only in this mountain. I will go back and talk to the abbot of Nanian. If she gives more money, it won't make her sad. What's more, she suddenly met a family change, and it was difficult to return for a while. The mountain is quiet and the nunnery is clear. It's good for her to let her rest for a period of time. Even if Princess Jiu knows it, she will agree.

Shen Coral heard Wei Jue's words and glanced at him gratefully. Then he saluted Mrs. Ye and others, said goodbye in a low voice, and then took Cai Yin to go quickly. Wei Jue sent someone to take care of her without mentioning it.

Mrs. Ye looked at Shen Coral's awkward back and sighed, "It's all evil!"

Ye Dongyu and Qi Yunjing saw her low interest and looked at each other, one left and one right to help her make fun. Mrs. Ye is a very transparent old man, and she will not accept the feelings of the younger generation. She reluctantly smiled, and the group went up the mountain as planned.

In June, Shen Xuanji finally gave birth to a daughter. Both husband and wife were new parents and were very excited. Xue Zhen leaned against the bedside and hugged his wife in his hand. Shen Xuanji held the pink baby in his hand. From time to time, the two looked at each other and felt infinitely satisfied.

It is a big deal to name your daughter. It is reasonable that today's son is a grandfather and should be given a name. However, Shen Xuanji felt uncomfortable when she thought that her daughter would spend her life with the emperor's name. Xue Zhen knew his wife's intention and chose the word "Yi" for his daughter. His big name was Yi Ran, and his nickname was called A Bao according to Shen Xuanji's meaning.

This child is naturally like a jewel when she was pregnant in October and gave birth. It is her unchangeable heart.

She did not forget to pray to her parents in heaven secretly, "Father, mother and daughter have also become mothers. Your two are spiritual in heaven. Please bless our family of three to be safe and happy and avoid disaster..."

While Xue and his wife ushered in a new life, the emperor, who had been sick for a long time, almost reached the end of his life.

The door of the "Yuantai Hall" was blown open by the wind, and the sky outside was piled up with dark clouds. A white lightning flashed by, and the dull thunder rolled from a distant place. The hall was dark, and the emperor stretched out his hand and danced, as if he wanted to brush away the darkness in front of him.

"Father, what do you want?" The eighth prince slowly came in holding a candlestick. He has been much older in the past few months. His handsome face showed a haggard look, his temples were slightly white, and he looked much older than his actual age.

When the emperor saw him come in, he propped up his body tremblingly, gritted his teeth and spit out a word, "Get out!"

The Eighth Prince stood up and stood half a foot away from the dragon couch, standing motionless and shaking his head with a smile.

The emperor was furious. He never expected that one day he would become water and fire with his once beloved son. He only felt a sweet throat and finally couldn't help it, but he had lost his strength and held the edge of the bed for half a day and couldn't speak.

The eighth prince stood far away, admiring his father's dying struggle with a leisurely expression. What does he feel like now? He didn't know either. He asked himself if he had ever truly loved the man in front of him for even a moment? The answer seems to be very far away and fleeting. The eighth prince wanted to catch it, but he couldn't reach out.

So, that's it...

When the emperor died, the Eighth Prince thought that his accession to the throne was a certainty, but he encountered a lot of resistance. The third prince and the sixth prince are regardless of the matter, but several uncle-level old princes and the noble families led by the Anguo Mansion and the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion all coincidentally said that they should first call the ninth prince back to Beijing for mourning.

The Eight Prince wanted to be angry and kill chickens to warn monkeys, but he found that he had no tiger charm in his hand, and the "Jin Wuwei" did not obey his order. All his armed forces were just his own generals and some sporadic guards. His heart began to beat violently. He knew that Huo Qiyue must have gone to Qiyi with the emperor's secret decree, but the people he sent to intercept him halfway were silent. At this time, if Xue Zhen came back...

Everything he has done is in vain.

He sat down on the dragon chair dejectedly. His hand held his head and only felt that his fingertips were cold, and there was a cold wind leaking in his fingers. Although it was a dog day, he felt chilly.

Is he wrong from the beginning?

Knowing that on the day the death of the previous emperor, Xue Zhen locked himself in the study and refused to open the door no matter who called him. Huo Qiyu waited outside for a long time and finally couldn't help cursing, "Okay! You just cover the maggots inside and wait for me to find a god who can deal with you!"

Before he finished speaking, Shen Xuanji was covered with a wet nurse holding Bao behind him. Without saying a word, he reached out and pushed the door open, took the child from the wet nurse's hand, nodded to Huo Qiyu, and turned into the room.

Xue Zhen frowned and was about to lose his temper when he saw Shen Xuanji standing in front of him with the child in his arms. A pair of big black eyes on her daughter's chubby little face were looking at him. She had always been afraid of people, especially when she saw her father, she was even more excited and reached out to hug him.

Xue Zhen had to take over his daughter. The soft meatball lay in his arms, and even his heart was soft.

Shen Xuanji did not comfort her. While wiping the sweat on A Bao's head with a veil, he said, "Brother Fang should be here in the past few days."

Fang Chen returned to the camp that day to borrow troops. It happened that Wei Ye's body was returned by Beijin. He stayed in the camp to take care of the funeral and rectified military affairs on behalf of Wei Jia. He didn't come until everything stopped.

Xue Zhen lowered his head and stroked his daughter's soft cheek without answering.

"Your Majesty," she reached out and held Xue Zhen. "I know you're sad."

"He is my father after all." Xue Zhen still didn't look up and said low.

Shen Xuanji didn't speak and also looked at her daughter's little face with her husband. "Look at Bao, how fast he grew up. When he was young, the world he saw every day was different. When he grew up, there were more ties."

"Those who have loved can't forget, and those who have hated can't forget. At that time, when my mind moved, it would take years or even decades to erase those joys or wounds. Lord, I know you are sad."

Xue Zhen's body stiffened, stretched out his hand to hug Shen Xuanji, held her and his daughter in his arms, and buried his face in her neck. After a long time, Shen Xuanji heard him say sullenly, "Let's go back?"

Shen Xuanji's eyes suddenly became wet, and she nodded vigorously, "It's time for us to go back."

She is a noble girl. He is a noblewoman. She just wanted to find a safe haven that day, and he just wanted a flower in the palm of his hand. However, time flies and the world is changeable. She and he finally become what they are today. She is his bone and his flesh and blood. They are unique to each other. They are treasures that they don't want to change and don't want to give up again.

"I'm not with the prince to spend the rest of my life in this small calyx. In that case, even if the prince has me and A Bao, he will still think this time is indifferent. My husband, my destiny is to stand on the top of the nine palaces and be admired by thousands of people before he lives up to this vast world.

"Your Majesty, it's time to take Bao and me back."

And outside the house, the clear sky shows a strange blue-purple light, and the golden black sky is falling, and the old day will soon pass.
