That prince's heart is too dark

On New Year's Eve of the 50th year of Yuanhe, Emperor Yuanhe passed away at the age of 53. He was a generous and benevolent emperor with a posthumous title of Ren.

The concubine, concubine Huo's daughter, is deeply favored by the emperor, and she is specially allowed to accompany her in the imperial tomb.

The emperor's seventh son, Yu, succeeds him as the emperor. Because of his young age, the eldest son of the emperor, Yong'an Wang An, is the regent and temporarily takes over the government.

——"Great Chu History"

All in the territory of Dachu must observe national mourning for three years.Ordinary people are not allowed to drink alcohol, get married, or visit Goulan tile shops within a year.Plain color is required within three years.

The family members of the royal family of Dachu are not allowed to drink or have fun for three years, and they are not allowed to marry, and they need to wear plain clothes.

Yuan Hedi left on the morning of New Year's Eve, Chang Qing went in to wait on him as usual, and saw Yuan Hedi sitting up by himself, looking at him with full of energy.

Chang Qing felt a "thump" in her heart, the secret passage was over, this was the light of day.

"Where are An'er and Yu'er? I want to see them." Yuan Hedi sat on the bed with his back straight, even his gray hair was combed by Chang Qing, and he brought his favorite Kowloon opera on weekdays gold inlaid crown with beads.

"The two Highnesses are having breakfast in the side hall, and the servants are going to call now." Chang Qing said, he turned around, and his steps were much faster than usual, and he was afraid that this would be the last time, so don't miss it again.

Chang Qing came out of the dormitory, and before he took a few steps, he saw Xiao Huaian and Xiao Huaiyu coming together.

"Your Highness." Chang Qing trotted over and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is awake and wants to see your Highness."

"Father is awake?" Xiao Huaiyu was surprised. Yuan Hedi had been in a coma for half a month, and sometimes he couldn't recognize anyone when he woke up. He just kept calling to find their mother and concubine, and said some words of guilt and apology. .

"Yes, very sober." Chang Qing lowered her head and added.

Xiao Huai'an frowned slightly, and he and Xiao Huaiyu looked at each other, and they both read bad news from each other's eyes.

"Director Chang, have someone notify those who are above the third rank in Chaozhong." Xiao Huaian paused, then changed his words: "No, before the fourth rank, all of them will enter the palace."

"I'll do it now, servant girl." Chang Qing understood the seriousness of the matter, saluted and left quickly.

When Xiao Huaian and Xiao Huaiyu came to the door of the bedroom, Xiao Huaian paused.He remembered that not long ago, he said in it that that was the last time Yuan Hedi saw him alive.

Now, when it might be the last time, he hesitated.It seems that his heart has softened, and he can't be as hard as iron when he speaks harshly.

"Brother?" Xiao Huaiyu put his hands on the door, and was about to push it, when he saw that the place next to him was empty, but when he turned his head, he saw Xiao Huai'an who was a few steps away with a pensive face.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Huaiyu asked.

"It's okay, let's go in." Xiao Huaian sighed, and finally chose to go in, to see Yuan and Emperor for the last time.

He laughed at himself in his heart. After staying with the little guy for a long time, he learned some softness and kindness in him.If he hadn't met the little guy, he might have fulfilled his words that day.

Forget it, no matter what, without Yuan Hedi's partiality, people who are alive today are especially good.Think of it as repaying the partiality of these years, and he, Xiao Huai'an, also pretended to be a human being.

Emperor Yuanhe wore a black dragon robe with dragon patterns embroidered on the chest, cuffs and hem. Compared with the dragon robe worn by Yuanhe Emperor Pang Ri, the embroidery was a little more free and easy.

This is the dragon robe that Emperor Yuanhe had treasured for a long time, and he dared not wear it or touch it easily, for fear that it would be damaged somewhere.

This dragon robe was a gift from Huo Wan to Emperor Yuanhe when he ascended the throne. Every stitch and thread was made by Huo Wan himself.

It's no wonder that Yuanhe Di regards them as treasures. After all, people are gone, and we can only think about people when we see things.

Yuan Hedi sat on the backrest with his back straight, he refused to touch the backrest for fear of wrinkling his clothes.

When he saw Xiao Huaiyu first, his eyes sparkled with excitement, but he still felt a little regretful.After Xiao Huaiyu took a few steps and revealed Xiao Huaian behind him, Yuan Hedi's eyes were really bright like stars, as if he was relieved, and the smile on his face was a satisfied and relaxed smile.

"An'er, Yu'er, please sit down next to Emperor Father." Yuan Hedi beckoned for the two of them to pass.

Looking at the expressions of Yuan and Emperor, the two of them both sensed that this was a flashback, and they were afraid that it was really bad.

All the dissatisfaction in my heart was put away for the time being, and I sat obediently on both sides of Yuan and Emperor.

Yuan Hedi held Xiao Huaian and Xiao Huaiyu's hands with his withered hands, smiling extremely contentedly.

"What time is the twelfth lunar month today? Is it the New Year?" Yuan Hedi asked with a smile.

"Today is New Year's Eve." Xiao Huaian lowered his eyes, unable to tell what it was like.

"Is it thirty today?" Emperor Yuan He was surprised at first, and then said: "The days go by so fast, I still remember that yesterday was still fragrant with sweet-scented osmanthus, and now the next year will be over."

"The days go by so fast. In a blink of an eye, you are all so old. I still remember that when Yu'er was a child, as soon as the New Year's Eve came, he asked me for the new year's money. After I gave it, I apologized and asked me to exchange it for gold."

Yuan Hedi recalled the past tenderly with his eyes, as if those warm years were ahead for him.

"Hey, I was young and ignorant at that time. I didn't know that although the banknotes are thin, they are worth more." Xiao Huaiyu scratched his head, and when he mentioned things when he was a child, even he would feel a little embarrassed.

"Yu'er was a monkey when he was a child, how can An'er be good?" Yuan Hedi sighed, and looked at Xiao Huai'an with even more guilt, "An'er has always been very sensible, and I don't need my father to copy it." What heart."

"That's right, it's all the father's fault, it's the father who ignored you."

Xiao Huaian just shook his head with a smile, and said: "Father is the emperor, and his heart is concerned with the world. You shouldn't worry too much about small loves."

Yuan Hedi was stunned, with a bitter smile, of course he could tell that Xiao Huaian was still blaming him.At the end of the day, he realized that he was mediocre and incompetent as an emperor, and he could only guard the land left by the ancestors of Da Chu.

A large part of the credit for this is his third son, and being a father is also an extreme failure. He has many children, but he has not personally educated any of them, and he even thinks that he loves his eldest son enough.

In this life, he has failed as a father, a husband, and a king.

Yuan and Di pulled two people to talk about the past. They could say very little before, and they finished soon.He started to care about Xiao Huaiyu and Danyang's little life again, and asked Xiao Huaiyu to treat Danyang well.

Xiao Huaiyu heard that Emperor Yuanhe cared about Danyang sincerely this time, so he turned the whole thing over from the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Emperor Yuanhe turned to Xiao Huai'an after caring about Xiao Huaiyu, he sighed, and seemed a little worried.

"An'er, you and Bai Yao are not married yet, right? This time, the father cheated you."

How could Xiao Huai'an fail to understand the meaning of these words, he is the son of Emperor Yuanhe, he has to observe filial piety for three years, and he is not allowed to marry within these three years.

"The imperial decree has already been written and placed with Chang Qing, and it is all done according to An'er's wishes." Seeing that Xiao Huaian did not answer, Emperor Yuan He was not angry, and continued on his own.

"If you don't sit on the throne, don't sit on it. It's not a fun thing. It's better than anything else to live peacefully and beautifully with the one you love. I left a dowry for Bai Yao alone. Our old Xiao family will marry a son." Daughter-in-law, you can't treat others badly."

Xiao Huaian was taken aback when he heard the words, and looked at Emperor Yuanhe in surprise, "Father?"

"In the past, I was not good, and I left everything up to you, but in my heart I still wanted you to follow my father's thoughts. I only thought of you as the future prince, the future princess and queen of Dachu. Definitely not a man."

"But in the final analysis, what about men and women? The empress of Da'an is not only a man, but also a foreign race. Has it delayed their national strength? It's because I am too old-fashioned. It caused you to be unmarried now, and it also caused Bai Yao's child to be a prostitute. Pet name."

Xiao Huaian closed his eyes and let out a deep breath. Yuan Hedi's belated apology made him feel at a loss.

"Yaoyao doesn't care about those things, and I don't care either. My father and I have the same idea. After all, Yaoyao will not be able to give birth to the blood of the Xiao family. I definitely don't want our branch to be broken in my hands."

"Besides, Yaoyao's character is not suitable for being a queen. I don't want him to live so tired." This sentence is Xiao Huaian's heartfelt voice. Bai Yao's character is kind and soft. After all, the back position can't resist stabbing someone in the back after all.

And if he is the emperor, he cannot take care of him all the time.After all, there are times when the protection is not complete and people take advantage of the loopholes.

He absolutely does not allow that to happen.

"I'm not as good as you, really not as good as you." Yuan Hedi's eyes were slightly red, his lips were trembling, and his voice was trembling.

Suddenly, he seemed to see something, and the light in his eyes flourished.He let go of Xiao Huaian and Xiao Huaiyu's hands that had been tightly held, stood up tremblingly, and walked forward slowly.

"Wanwan, are you here to pick me up?" Yuan Hedi looked at the gentle and beautiful woman standing in the light and stretching out her hand to him, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Great, I've been waiting for you, I've been waiting, you're finally here."

"Fortunately, I'm waiting for you, Wanwan."

Xiao Huaian and Xiao Huaiyu watched Yuan Hedi staggering forward, stretching out his hands as if reaching for something.

The two people's faces turned pale, they stood up quickly, and hurried forward to support Yuan and Emperor.I saw that Yuan and Di's outstretched hands seemed to be holding something.

Immediately afterwards, the whole person slowly fell backwards.

Xiao Huaiyu took a deep breath, rushed up and hugged Yuan Hedi, and carefully put his index finger under Yuan Hedi's nose.

His whole body seemed to be struck by lightning. After a while, he raised his head with red eyes, and said hoarsely to Xiao Huai'an: "Brother, father, go."

Xiao Huai'an only felt a loud "hum!" in his head, and a sense of loss hit his whole body. Only at this moment did he realize that he was sad and wanted to cry.

He never thought that when Yuan and Di left, he would have such big mood swings.But it turned out that he was really sad, and this sadness was only a little less than when the mother concubine left.

"Ayu, we have no mother and no father." Xiao Huaian's voice trembled, and he forced out a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" hugging Emperor Yuanhe and crying loudly.

[The author has something to say: The original plan was that Xiao Gou didn't even see Yuan and Emperor for the last time. Later, after thinking about it, Xiao Gou and Yao Zai have been together for so long. If they can't be infected a little, it seems meaningless.

Moreover, Yuan Hedi only loves himself a little more, and still prefers the Xiaogou brothers.

This time it’s really over~]
