Chapter 1347: Crying in the coffin

"I wonder, which of your sons is he?"
After saying this, I held my breath and looked at Pei Ji. Although I knew that he was not the kind of moody and tyrant who would kill and kill, the sentence just said, after all, it was the royal family that he had hidden for many years. Known as secret, I am not talking to an ordinary person.
His gentle temperament does not mean that he is hesitant as emperor.
Sure enough, Pei Ji's eyes suddenly became sharp at this moment. He looked at me, and in his eyes seemed to have an invisible blade, which had approached my throat.
He said, "You seem to know a lot."
"..."
"And these, it is impossible for someone to tell you, no one knows these things."
"..."
"Boss, he can't."
"..."
"How the did you know?"
I looked at him calmly, and then slowly said, "When the emperor woke up, he probably had nothing to say, he asked a lot of things to the father-in-law and many people, but only one person, you It seems that it has never been asked. "
He stared at me suddenly: "..."
"Mother Queen."
"..."
"You never asked, about her."
At this moment, the light in his eyes dimmed and remained silent for a long time before he said gently: "Yeah, I forgot, I forgot to ask her. She has been repairing the stupa in Linshui for so many years that she refused to see Gu, who refuses to meet anyone, and sometimes, Gu is about to forget her. "
Then, he looked at me: "She now--"
I interrupted him and said calmly, "She is also dead."
"..."
Pei Ji opened her eyes suddenly and looked at me suddenly: "She, she also--"
I think this is what people often say is right and wrong. After all, he slept for more than ten years. When he opened his eyes again, even the lord of the dynasty changed people, not to mention others? Those who had been with him, had feelings with him, and had the same mood of anger and sorrow, were gone.
There was a sorrow of grief floating on his face: "How is she--"
"Mr. Fu Shengong conquered the party and privately, plotting rebellion, and while the emperor was in the army to resist the spring hunting of the Ma Valley, he forced the emperor to abdicate. In order to protect her emperor, she committed suicide by poisoning herself and killed the country."
Pei Ji took a deep breath, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
He shivered, "She, after all, she-"
I said, "Yeah, she was protecting her‘ son ’before she died.

"..." Pei Ji trembled and remained silent for a long time before finally sighing, "I was lonely and lost her."
He slowly closed his eyes, as if it was difficult to face what he had done or face that person. I looked at him and asked, "Why does the emperor lose her?"
After a while, he opened his eyes and looked at me. There seemed to be a helpless expression in his eyes, and he said softly: "Although she is not a lonely sweetheart, but after entering the palace, her rashness Innocence and vitality made Gu like it very much. Even after she became pregnant, Gu ... wanted to treat her well. "
I squinted slightly.
This sentence is obviously meaningful.
Feeling my gaze, Pei Ji glanced at me as if he had given up concealment and disguise, smiled lightly, and then said, "Since you came to hold her in an injustice, of course, you are familiar with her, and also She will not know her identity. She is from the grassland, and people in Shengjing know that she is very happy after she is pregnant. "
I suddenly understood: "They must hope that the queen mother can be a man in one fell swoop, and is it the eldest boy?"
Pei Ji nodded gently.
"But you don't want to, do you?"
He looked up and looked at me.
I knew that he still had some concerns about me, so he said to himself: "Shengjing's penetration of the imperial court has been deep, and their hands have even reached Jiangnan. If the queen mother from the grassland gave birth to the prince and became a prince, If he reigns as emperor, the court will become a household of Sheng Jingbu in the Central Plains. "
Pei Ji's eyes flickered.
In the beginning, he must have simply regarded me as "Huaiyin's daughter" and "Princess's mother", but after saying these words, his eyes changed.
He looked at me for a moment and said gently, "You're right."
I said, "So, what did you do then?"
He took a deep breath and slowly said, "Actually, at that time, there were many ways and many choices. No matter what you choose, you can keep silent and not alarm anyone to deal with this. Won't make her so sad. "
"But it doesn't seem like you said it?"
"Yes, because there was a little accident that year."
"What accident?"
"Fire at the Gui Palace."
My heart jumped.
I've thought about so many questions to ask him, and I've thought about so many doubts to let him unravel, but I didn't expect things to come so fast, I just wanted to tell him yesterday that my mother was dead , But he talked unabashedly about the past that has become taboo in the deep palace.
The fire that led to the death of the Queen Emperor Xiangyu!
My voice was trembling a little: "What's that--"
He didn't finish my words, he took it a bit indifferently, and continued: "Wait until the fire of the Gui Palace goes out, wait ... until everything is settled down, and when Gu Gu declares that the queen has passed away, there will be some Come and tell Gu, that both Concubine and her are ready. "
Although he said this with a cold look, I can feel that his heart is very painful. Even after saying this long series of words, he stopped himself and gasped heavily, It was as if something on his chest was constantly hitting his heart, leaving him with no peace at all.
Fire at the Laurel Palace.
The Queen of Martyrs who died in the fire.
And ... that child.
All this, after decades of unawareness, escaped, and finally he was in front of him.
Even me, at this moment, was a bit unpredictable, my heart beating like thunder. I took a step forward, my legs had touched the edge of the bed, watching his eyes slowly become red and red, and I said nervously: "The concubine ... that is, your later queen and queen mother, both of them It's time to go, what have you done? "
He suddenly raised his head and looked at me, panting slightly: "You ask Guyou, how much do you know? After you know, what do you want to do?"
I said, "Folkwoman, you can do nothing."
"..."
"But at that time, it was the emperor. You said that secret phrase to the daughter-in-law. Under the night frost, she guided the daughter to find the imperial edict and jade seal. A son's name is an unfamiliar name. You write it on it and you can inherit Datong. "
"..."
"Isn't the Emperor himself supposed to make an explanation?"
"..."
He took a deep breath, and seemed to be crying and laughing: "What is even more unexpected is that the little palace girl who is next to the third child will be Huaiyin's daughter ..." He said, and looked up at me again. "Is this Huaiyin's Spirit in Heaven, Blessing Gu, and Gu's Son?"
I said lightly, "It's too loud to say blessing."
He glanced at me and said nothing. He only lowered his eyelids, and then slowly said, "At that time, Gu had no intention to ask about the harem again, but after all, it was the two of them who were in the basin. Study, waiting for news. "
"So, what news are you waiting for?"
"..."
He shuddered suddenly, as if receiving a great shock, and the whole person shuddered slightly.
Then, in a husky voice, he said, "The first son, lonely, was born."
All of a sudden my breath tightened.
The first son, the eldest son of the emperor, was the name I saw on the imperial edict that year—
"Your first son, the eldest son of the emperor, Pei Yuanchen, right ?!"
He nodded slightly.
"Yes, who?"
I have some incoherent words, who gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor? Of course, it is not Queen Yin, Pei Yuanxiu is her son; and the queen mother, if it is her, that is not right--
When there was a mess in my head, Pei Ji slowly raised his head to look at me, and said calmly, "When the eldest son was born, no one was guarding, no one was delivering, and no one even knew. "
"... How did you know?"
"Because, someone heard the cry of the child."
"..."
"In that deserted place, Solitary has closed people there."
"..."
"However, because of the fire, the closure was useless. Several personal palace ladies secretly went there to protect her coffin, and secretly prayed for her to burn incense, and then they listened. Crying. "
"..."
"From the coffin, the child cries."
I just felt that my heartbeat stopped and my breathing couldn't continue. The scene seemed to appear in front of me, a barren ruin, a heavy and lonely coffin stopped in the center, and a few palace ladies heard the cry and panicked. Rushed up.
I choked and said, "Then what happened?"
Pei Ji said, "Then they boldly opened the coffin."
"..."
"They saw their master, who was dead, but still the same as when she was alive, except that she would never open her eyes again."
"..."
"And beside her was a newborn baby, just born, biting her finger in her mouth, biting and crying."
"..."
"That's the lonely son, the eldest son of the emperor."
"..."
At this moment, I just felt that my eyes were spinning in circles, as if everything had become chaotic.
There was only one voice, incomparably clear from the ashes of years, ringing in my ears—
Coffin!
