Your Majesty is happy [rebirth]

Stretching out his hand and pushing open the door of the hall in front of him, the cold and gloomy atmosphere made Ling Qiyou stop involuntarily. In the dark hall without any light, the person sitting by the wall remained motionless, his messy hair covered most of his cheeks , it seemed as if he had lost all his vitality. On him, he could no longer see the arrogance and arrogance he had before.

After recovering from the stupefaction, Ling Qiyou raised his chin slightly, the clown understood, went in and lit up all the candlesticks in the hall first, after Ling Qiyou walked in the door, he bowed and retreated, And help him close the palace door.

Walking forward slowly, he stopped three steps away from Shen Lexin. The person who hadn't responded all this time finally turned his head slowly, moved his lips, but couldn't speak.

Ling Qiyou sighed softly in his heart, and just sat down on the floor in front of him.

Since the assassination of the Queen Mother yesterday, Shen Lexin's hands, which were still able to move freely, were also handcuffed, and the chains on his feet were directly buckled to the iron ring in the corner. The whole person was tied in this corner and could no longer move. half point.

He didn't look at Ling Qiyou, but Ling Qiyou saw that his eyes that had always been shining sharply were now nothing but chaos and no brilliance. After a moment of silence, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Shen Lexin's wrist , Forcing him to let go of the palm he held, a bloody mess.

Ling Qiyou's eyes darkened a bit, and he asked him: "You have been hiding the porcelain fragments in your hand all the time? What do you want to do?...suicide?"

Shen Lexin still didn't respond at all, Ling Qiyou sighed: "If you just die like this, how can I explain to Ling Jing when he comes back?"

Mentioning Ling Jing, Shen Lexin finally had a slight emotional change in his eyes, his pupils shrank slightly, but he still didn't make a sound, Ling Qiyou said: "Listen, the prince is crying..."

There was indeed a faint cry of a baby, Xiaoshizi was also in Qitai Hall, but in another room, with a nanny with him, Ling Qiyou hadn't let Shen Lexin see him for more than four months, In fact, it was also a punishment for his previous act of robbing the prince, and Shen Lexin could only listen to his cries every day, knowing that he was not far away from her, and she wanted to see him but couldn't.

The intermittent voice never stopped, Shen Lexin's eyes slowly turned red, and finally she spoke in a hoarse voice. For the first time, facing Ling Qiyou, her tone was pleading: "Let him go..."

"...You asked me to let him go? What about yourself? Do you really want to die?"

Shen Le didn't answer, he kept holding that piece of broken porcelain in his hand, and wanted to cut it off towards his wrist countless times, but every time, Xiao Shizi's crying sounded in his ears, and thinking of Ling Jing, he would still Can't do it.

"Why...why don't you want to live?"

Shen Lexin raised her eyes to look at him, with the deepest despair in her eyes, after a long while, she said: "I can't even avenge me, what's the point of living..."

"Do you really hate me so much?"

Shen Lexin stared blankly at Ling Qiyou in front of her, with complicated and obscure emotions in her eyes, Ling Qiyou looked back at him, and also smiled wryly, after a long time, she spoke again, her voice was already a little choked up : "...Brother...do you really hate me so much?"

Shen Lexin's eyes widened suddenly, and the eye sockets were redder than before. Ling Qiyou stretched out his hand towards him again, and there were three colored glass beads in the open hand, and his eyes were also red: "You give I always keep my stuff."

It was just a toy he gave him casually when he was a child, something he didn't even remember, but he didn't expect Ling Qiyou to keep it all the time, Shen Lexin stared blankly at the thing in his hand, completely speechless, Ling Qiyou was still smiling wryly: "If it weren't for these three glass beads, I would almost have thought that the elder brother who played with me and took care of me when I was young was actually just my imagination."

He was still very young at that time, and his father was established as the crown prince, so he moved into the East Palace from outside the palace. The first time, in the side courtyard of the East Palace, he saw the beautiful boy who was a little older than him, and he told He, he is his elder brother. Ling Qiyou didn't know his name, but from the very beginning, he called him "brother" in a childish voice, and he always smiled like a little sun, calling him softly He, Qi You, Qi You, over and over again.

My brother will not dislike him for being too hard to trot, he always takes him to play in the small side courtyard of the East Palace, picks him up when he accidentally falls, coaxes him patiently to wipe his tears and tells him not to Crying, my brother will tell him all kinds of fresh and fun stories, and tell him what the outside world is like, obviously only one or two years older than him, but my brother knows far more than him, when he is happy , my brother would laugh with him, when he was depressed, my brother would try his best to make him laugh, Ling Qiyou lived very lonely since he was a child, but only in the two years when he was a child, he was really accompanied by someone .

But it was only two years. Except for the side courtyard of the East Palace, Ling Qiyou had never seen his brother on other occasions, and he had never seen his brother when the princes and grandchildren gathered together during festivals. I was too young, so I didn't understand what this meant, until two years later, my brother suddenly disappeared, and no one lived in the side courtyard of the East Palace since then, so it became a deserted courtyard.

At first Ling Qiyou was not reconciled, he still went to that yard and waited blankly every day, always thinking that his brother would come back, so day after day, until a year later, that yard was commanded by his mother. He was completely disappointed when he locked it with an iron chain and couldn't get in again.

Ling Qiyou asked many people, including his nanny, eunuchs, court ladies, including his queen mother, all of them told him that he had misremembered, that he was the eldest prince and crown prince, and that he had no real brother at all. Even Ling Qiyou began to wonder if he really remembered wrongly, if it wasn't for the three glass beads given to him by his elder brother, or these three beads that he had been secretly hiding, let him know clearly that he There is an older brother, and that is not something he imagined, but a real one.

After Ling Qiyou ascended the throne, he actually thought about finding his elder brother back. However, that person back then seemed to have been completely wiped out of existence, and there was no one left who served him in the Eastern Palace back then. He had no clue at all, and had no way of finding out, but he never expected that his brother had returned, but in such a capacity, and he only had hatred for him.

Up to now, he finally knew where the inexplicable familiar feeling came from when he first met Shen Lexin. It turned out to be the case, but the truth was so cruel.

The tears in Shen Lexin's eyes were faltering, her eyes were red, and she asked him: "Do you know how my father died?...Hundreds of arrows pierced his body at the same time, and they set fire to him, if it wasn't for the farmer who took us in A child the same age as me has become an unjust victim instead of me. Do you think I can still talk to you here? Daddy and I just want to go back to the southern country, it’s your grandfather! He’s the one who won’t let us go! Yes He led people to chase us all the way to Jiangdong to kill us!"

At the end, Shen Lexin suddenly became excited, as if recalling that unforgettable nightmare back then, the chains that locked his body also made a dull sound because of his struggling movements, which stimulated Ling Qiyou's eardrums, and Shen Lexin was already crying With a full face, almost crazy: "Your family are all beasts! My father is the proton sent by the southern country. It is your stupid father who forced him and gave him medicine to give birth to me! Because I am older than you! Yours The queen mother and grandfather were afraid that I would threaten your status, so they spread rumors to slander my father! That stupid king listened and believed and wanted to execute my father and me! We escaped with great difficulty, and finally my father died under your grandfather's random arrows It’s all because of you! Do I have to die because I threatened your status?! My dad didn’t want to from the beginning, he just wanted to take me back to the southern country, so he has to die?! You are all beasts ! Beast! How could I not hate you?!"

Ling Qiyou looked at Shen Lexin, who was almost crazy, and when he struggled to jump up and hit him with the shackles between his hands, he didn't avoid it, but instead stretched out his hand to support him, his eyes were also red, and the choking in his voice could no longer be suppressed Live: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

"What's the use of telling me you're sorry?!" Shen Lexin yelled at him angrily: "Can you give me back my father's life?! From the crown prince to the emperor's pampered place, you don't know the sufferings of the world, do you know me? What kind of life have you lived in the past 15 years?! You have been surrounded by stars since you were a child, and there are so many people helping you and protecting you. How could you understand that I lost my only father or that I was killed while watching with my own eyes? Can't give him the feeling of revenge?!"

"I know... I really know..." Tears welling up in his eyes had flowed to the corner of his mouth, Ling Qiyou tasted the salty taste, but felt more bitter in his heart, he knew it all, he and Shen Lexin were actually the same, At the beginning, he also watched his mother's queen being murdered like this, but he was helpless. He could really understand the piercing pain: "You should hate me... the person who killed your father was my grandfather, He is all for me... You should hate me... That stupid king started to regret after your father died, he thought that the rumors slandering your father were the queen who asked someone to let him go, so he lost his mind and wanted to Execute you and your father, he regretted it, so he hated my mother, after my grandfather died, he acquiesced to Concubine Xiao poisoning my mother, he wanted to abolish me and let Concubine Xiao's son replace me, I killed him, killed Xiao The noble concubine's son even made Concubine Xiao into a human pig, so you should hate me, because I also hate Concubine Xiao and her son, it was she who made my mother mad and stupid...but the mother...the thing is true It has nothing to do with her..."

"Retribution!" Shen Lexin laughed loudly again, laughing and crying at the same time: "It really is retribution! She also has today?! But just being crazy and stupid is not enough! My father was pierced by thousands of arrows and died. Why don't you die too?!"

"No," Ling Qiyou shook his head desperately, and explained anxiously: "No...it really has nothing to do with the queen mother. The person who spread rumors to slander your father is my grandfather, and the person who bewitched the faint king to execute your father and you is also my grandfather. , even he led people to hunt you down and kill you and your father and mother. She didn't know. She always thought that you had gone back to the southern country. My mother didn't want to, she really didn't want to...you were able to escape from Beijing, it was her... It was she who secretly helped and let you go..."

Yesterday, Empress Dowager Xu was irritated after seeing Shen Lexin, who looked like Yu Wenminxi, the great prince of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom who was sent to the Dacheng Dynasty as a proton. She passed out and was sent back to the Palace of Eternal Life. After waking up from the confusion and confusion, Ling Qiyou and her had a long talk all night before finally knowing what happened that year.

"Impossible!" Shen Lexin interrupted him loudly: "Do you think I will believe you when you say that?! How could your queen mother help us?! She wished me and my father to die! The imperial edict of that stupid king who wants to make me the crown prince It’s just a matter of sending it out, your mother will be willing?! She is the one who wants us to die the most, how can she help us?!”

"It's true, I didn't lie to you, it's really the queen mother who let you go..."

The emotions of both of them were on the verge of collapse, the palace door was suddenly pushed open, the clown bent over to enter the door, and whispered to Ling Qiyou: "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager said that she wanted to see him, and that she had something to say to him in person. explain."

Ling Qiyou looked up at Shen Lexin with red eyes, and suddenly stretched out his hand to hold his hand firmly, almost begging him: "Go and see the queen mother, she will tell you, go and see her... ..."

What Empress Dowager Xu said to him last night still had some reservations, Ling Qiyou knew that she was going to tell Shen Lexin herself, and only in this way could Shen Lexin's knots about him and Empress Dowager Xu be solved, no matter what, He didn't want to lose this brother again, absolutely not.
