After running away, she was pregnant with His Majesty's cub

Huo Rong sneered again and again.

Back then when Shang Yuan lost his memory, it was obvious that Huo Congran was the man behind the scenes who had used the young man.

I haven't brought up the old matter with him again, but he is already ready to pour dirty water on himself.

Huo Rong didn't care about Huo Congran's troubles before he died, but he didn't want Shang Yuan to suffer any harm——

The young man has already endured so many hardships, but now that he is pregnant, he still has to endure so much gossip.

It's just that the truth is too unbelievable, and "Shang Yuan" was indeed in close contact with the abolished prince, so how to explain it cleverly will take some trouble.

Huo Rong murmured: "Huihe is not a fool, but he and Huo Congran are in harmony, what's hidden in it?"

Huo Congran and Shang Que colluded to escape and never returned to Beijing. Huo Rong wanted to recover the foreign enemies first, and then deal with this brother who couldn't make a fortune later, but he never thought that he could not wait to come to die.

Huo Rong could have expected Huihe to want civil strife in the imperial court. In addition, he had always used iron fists to show others, but Huo Congran was gentle and gentle to foreign enemies, so it was no wonder that foreign enemies were thinking of collusion.

It's just that Huo Congran has fled to the southwest now, and he has almost no strength to turn himself around. Under such circumstances, if he can still win over foreign enemies to work for him, there must be other means.

Sure enough, seeing Huo Rong's questioning, the minister thought about it carefully and said: "The abolished prince has colluded with several Taoist priests from Heming Mountain in the southwest, and they have been doing some tricks to inherit the destiny all day long. I found a lot of auspiciousness, and for some reason, I called the wind and rain a few times, but... it makes the people in the southwest region feel that he is the lord of the world for granted..."

Huo Rong smiled coldly.

Huo Congran's move was just to remind others that he, Huo Congran, was the orthodox prince, the prince whom destiny belonged to.

And he is just a rebellious son who seeks to usurp the throne, so that even the heavens can't see it, and send down auspiciousness to help him.

This kind of absurd method has already been used in history books, and Huo Rong didn't take it seriously, but the current situation must be that Huihe, who was already superstitious, was deceived by those so-called auspicious signs, but followed Huo Congran wholeheartedly.

Huo Rong said coldly: "I wanted to solve the foreign troubles first and then eliminate the internal troubles in the Southwest. Since Huo Congran wanted to die, I also granted him, ordered the soldiers from Yunnan and Guizhou to stand by, and then dispatched two teams from Gansu to Chengdu. "

Huo Congran fled to the land of Shu, thinking that he could live in peace, but Huo Rong originally led the army from Gansu, and now, although he lives in Jiuchong, the military power in the southwest and northwest is still secretly firmly controlled.

Huo Rong pondered for a while, and said: "As for his pretending to be a ghost, don't expose it first, and every time he makes troubles, spread the word to as many people as possible."

The minister wondered: "The more people there are, the better...then...if the common people are deceived by the words of the abolished prince, how can His Majesty deal with himself..."

Huo Rong snorted: "Let him pretend to be a ghost and let him go. Since he is so keen on ghosts and gods, why don't you take advantage of the war and send him directly, so that my brother, who is destined to belong to the destiny, can ask Lord Yan himself to ask for clarification."

A few days ago, according to reports from spies, Huo Rong had learned that Huo Congran was secretly colluding with foreign enemies.

But he still dared to slander Shang Yuan, provoking his Ni Lin again and again.

Huo Rong narrowed his eyes slowly.

It's a pity that Huo Congran was born in the capital, and he hasn't seen many battles. He doesn't know that when the real gunpowder comes together, all tricks will be ridiculous and useless.

This battle can use Huo Congran to wash away the infamous reputation that the young man should not have borne.

The minister looked at Huo Rong silently, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty... there is one more thing, there are many people discussing it in the court, I risked my life, thinking that I should remind Your Majesty..."

Huo Rong raised his eyebrows slightly: "Say."

"Before the queen entered the palace, after all, she was the concubine of the abolished prince, and the queen entered the palace as the quasi-crown...cough cough, the queen has been pregnant for nine months, counting the days, it seems to be... exactly ..."

The confidant trembled as he spoke, and knelt down.

Huo Rong smiled slightly, but it made people shudder: "Does Qing think that I am a monarch who will be deceived by others?"

Even though it was the night when the two of them were in the military camp, although he was infatuated, his thoughts were extremely clear. Naturally, he knew that that night was the first time for the young man to...

What's more, he knew from the very beginning that Shang Yuan did not go to the palace, and it was true that he came to the barracks to assassinate in the name of entering the palace.

It's just that the rumors are rampant now, if you continue to stand by and watch, it will be even more difficult to restore the boy's reputation in the future.

This battle cannot be dragged on any longer.

Huo Rong immediately went to the Palace of Spring Harmony as soon as he came to court. The previous court was full of preparations and rumors, but he protected the harem invulnerable. The young man didn't know the wind and rain outside these few days.

As soon as he thought of the boy sleeping lazily on the small couch, he immediately quickened his pace.

Before reaching the palace gate, He He had already come out and said: "Your Majesty, the Empress heard the wind outside, and her mood is not right..."

Huo Rong paused, his face turned cold: "Who has been here?"

He He sighed: "Nowadays everyone knows that the abolished prince has colluded with foreign enemies and started a war. Even if the news is kept secret, the queen will hear about it."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Huo Rong striding into the palace.

It was already sunset time, and the light and shadow shone on the young man, making Huo Rong unable to bear his footsteps.

He slowed down, and then walked over to caress the young man's shoulder: "Ah Yuan?"

Shang Yuan looked back, and slightly staggered his gaze: "Your Majesty has not personally informed me that Huo Congran has contacted foreign enemies and started to raise troops, and he has never told me about those unsavory rumors in the capital."

Huo Rong frowned slightly: "Since it's unbearable, I naturally don't want to tell you."

"Your Majesty can hide it from me, but you can't block the ears and mouths of everyone in the capital." Shang Yuan looked at Huo Rong, with mixed feelings in his heart for a while: "Your Majesty will face pressure when he succeeds to the throne, but now it has just subsided, but because of I am once again involved in the whirlpool..."

After all, Huo Rong's position was not right. From the imperial court to the people, the condemnation of public opinion has never ceased. It was only Huo Rong who ruled the country with an iron fist, coupled with the fact that the national power is indeed increasing now, that barely appeased them.

But the queen he married had a relationship with the former prince, which naturally became dirty water poured on Huo Rong...

Huo Rong looked at the corner of the boy's slightly lowered eyes——

The boy didn't feel wronged for himself, but complained for him.

A young man who always thinks of others, has never done anything wrong!

Huo Rong raised Shang Yuan's chin, and stared at him deeply with dark pupils: "A Yuan, can you think more about yourself when you encounter problems, can you think about how to protect yourself?"

"I never cared about those people's yelling, and all of them together are insignificant in my heart." Huo Rong said: "The only reason I care now is because I care about you."

"But it's okay, if you don't think about yourself, I will think for you. I will never let anyone owe A Yuan." Huo Rong gently scratched his nose: "Even A Yuan himself can't do it."

"I promise you that all of this will end soon." Huo Rong said, "I have a way to keep you out of the matter."

Teenagers don't always think about themselves.

It was like this before, and it is still like this when I come back now.

The reason why Xiaoqi is still alive is because Shang Yuan risked his life to save him.

The young man at that time, knowing that Huo Congran wanted to frame him, and also aware of the ambiguous attitude of the emperor, decided to deliver the news to himself in person.

The reason why he took Xiao Qi out of the palace immediately was because he was afraid that Xiao Qi would fall into the hands of others and be used to restrict him.

I never thought that after all, I didn't climb over that mountain, but woke up and fell into the hands of the prince...

Huo Rong touched the boy's head: "I still have a gift for you."

After all, as if by magic, he took out a small white pigeon from the wide skirt.

The little pigeon is as white as winter snow, and its bulging belly is obediently attached to Huo Rong's palm.

Shang Yuan was startled: "...Your Majesty..."

He remembered that Huo Rong gave him an identical white carrier pigeon when he was wearing the book for the first time, and after he left, "Shang Yuan" used the pigeon to send a message to Huo Rong who was far away in the border, asking him to come to the capital quickly...

Since then, pigeons have always been able to provoke this memory of Huo Rong, which has always been his taboo.

But now...

"Do you like it?" Huo Rong gently stroked the pigeon's feathers with his slender index finger: "You have always liked pigeons, so I just thought, let's raise another one."

Those betrayals never happened, never happened between the two of them.

"I said before that as long as you let it fly, no matter where I am, it will come to you." Huo Rong raised his eyebrows lightly: "Now I want to take back this sentence."

Shang Yuan's heart trembled, and he raised his head in surprise.

"Because I will always be by A Yuan's side, to enjoy flowers and pick lotus in spring and summer, to make tea in autumn and winter, and to watch snow fall on the palace wall." Huo Rong hugged Shang Yuan and said softly, "Promise me, I will never leave again." ..."

Without further ado, facing the approaching situation in the southwest, Huo Rong immediately dispatched troops.

This battle was not the toughest battle he had ever fought, but it was the most prudent one he had ever fought.

After defeating Huo Congran, the so-called auspiciousness of destiny will naturally be destroyed, and most importantly, the reputation of the boy can finally be restored.

Of course he can't lose.

The monarch, who had never believed in gods and Buddhas before, began to kneel in the temple and look pious.

He still remembers that dream, and the reasons why the boy came here.

Maybe there really is an inviolable force in the dark, overlooking everything in the world.

The Beijing soldiers marched south, Huo Congran was defeated in just a few days, and Huihe also retreated to the designated sphere of influence early.

The army was defeated like a mountain, and the people booed a lot.

Everyone has never forgotten how Huo Congran flaunted that he was invincible in the past.

How many promises he made at that time, how many jokes have been made now.

Reminiscent of the past when he was taken over by Huo Rong——

People gradually come back to it.

The so-called destiny, in the end, is nothing but exiles who are retreating steadily.

Huo Rong immediately took advantage of this momentum and confiscated the old mansion of the deposed prince in the capital.

Zhan Ling led the order to go, and found the witch curse buried deep in the ground——

Legend has it that this witchcraft can make people lose their minds and be manipulated by others.

Only then did people in the world gradually understand that their queens and kings were bewitched by witchcraft, so they did such things.

In the name of Shang Yuan, Huo Rong built many academies in the war-torn areas, provided relief houses, and gave porridge and meals.

All of a sudden, the folk rumors suddenly changed.

Shang Yuan felt a little embarrassed, and said uncomfortably: "Why does everyone start to praise me, it's all done by His Majesty..."

Huo Rong smiled and said: "Yes, you told me this, I just did what A Yuan said, how can I deserve it?"

"I won't let you break with the people of the world." Huo Rong gently pressed the corner of his beloved's lips.

Because his Ah Yuan is worthy of all the beauty and love in the world.
