Chapter 179: Is Destiny Hard to Violate? (I fell asleep yesterday and made up for it...... )
The carriage stopped at the gate of Yong'an Gate, Li Xin got off the carriage first, stretched out his hand to help the eldest princess out of the carriage, she traveled all the way, and did not rest when she first arrived in the capital.
Fortunately, Li Xin helped her, and this time she fell directly into Li Xin's arms.
The Marquis of Jing'an stretched out his hand and patted her on the back, and said softly with relief: "Your Majesty, he ...... Probably get better, don't worry too much......"
Xiao Jiu pursed his lips, his face a little pale.
She held Li Xin's hand, and her voice trembled slightly: "Brother, he is only thirty-three years old this year, how can he ......?"
Li Xin sighed and didn't say anything more.
The husband and wife entered the palace from Yong'an Gate, and arrived at the gate of Weiyang Palace unimpeded along the way, after being reported, it didn't take long for Xiao Zheng, a big eunuch dressed in red, to run down from the steps at the palace gate in a panic, and when he ran to the eldest princess, the big eunuch knelt on the ground with a "plop" and bowed his head and kowtowed.
His voice choked.
"Your Highness, you have finally returned to Beijing......"
When the eldest princess was not out of the palace to open the palace, she often played in the palace of the king of Wei, at that time Xiao was a eunuch in the palace of the king of Wei, and she met the eldest princess, and at this time she saw the eldest princess return to Beijing, even if he was already a great eunuch who had been in power for many years, he was still a little excited.
As an inner chamberlain and eunuch, he is already a speaker of the inner court, whether in the inner court or in the outer court, he has a very high status, you must know that even when he saw Li Xin, although Xiao Zheng was respectful, he always bowed his hand, at most he was just a gesture, only when he saw a real prince like the eldest princess, he would kneel on the ground.
This is a very eye-catching eunuch, if Xiao Zheng, who just took over the inner court ten years ago, is much worse than the great eunuch Chen Ju back then, then after ten years of polishing, Xiao Zheng now has Chen Ju's appearance of seven or eight points.
When the eldest princess saw Xiao Zheng's appearance, she felt a little uncomfortable, she reached out to help Xiao Zheng up, and asked softly, "How is the imperial brother?" ”
Xiao Zheng didn't dare to speak, but lowered his head and choked up: "Your Highness, you will know when you go in and take a look." ”
The eldest princess took a deep breath and looked back at Li Xin.
"Do you want to go in with me?"
Li Xin shook his head slightly: "I'm waiting for you here." ”
The eldest princess nodded, followed Xiao Zheng, walked to the front steps of the palace, and walked towards Weiyang Palace little by little.
Xiao Zheng led the way in front, and quickly brought the eldest princess to the door of a warm pavilion, he bowed his head and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty is inside, you can go in......"
The eldest princess pinched the corners of her clothes a little nervously, and then stepped in.
It's November, it's not cold outside, but it's quite cold, and five copper stoves are lit in the warm pavilion, so that the temperature here is not only warm, but even a little hot.
The Son of Heaven was half-lying on the soft couch, and there were a few palace maids, and then he was waiting beside him.
The eldest princess walked over lightly.
Then she glanced at the Son of Heaven from afar.
At this time, the face of the Son of Heaven was even more ugly, not only pale, but also without any blood on his face, and the whole person was skinny, which was like two people before.
Originally, because of some disagreements between the Marquis of Jing'an and the Son of Heaven, the distance between these elderly princesses and the Son of Heaven has been greatly distanced, and they will not even see each other for several months, and the brother and sister have a lot of distance.
But seeing the appearance of the Son of Heaven at this time, the sense of distance in the eldest princess's heart suddenly disappeared, her eyes were red, and tears poured up all of a sudden.
The two of them are brother and sister, the Son of Heaven is seven years older than her, from childhood to adulthood, the Son of Heaven has been very fond of this sister, because the Queen Mother is trapped in the deep palace, since the Son of Heaven opened the mansion to be the King of Wei, he is basically playing with this sister everywhere.
This kind of feeling cannot be faked.
The eldest princess walked up in three or two steps, half-squatting on the edge of the bed of the Son of Heaven, tears falling like rain.
"Brother, what's wrong with you......"
The Son of Heaven was closing his eyes and meditating, when he suddenly heard his sister-in-law's voice, his eyes opened suddenly, and after seeing the eldest princess beside him, the Son of Heaven was stunned at first, and then a smile appeared on his pale face.
He barely bothered himself and sat himself up.
"Xiao Jiu is back......"
The eldest princess wept and said: "When I was a year ago, I went to the palace to see my brother, and my brother was still in good health, why did he suddenly look like this this year......"
The Son of Heaven waved his hand and retreated from the palace.
He sat on one side of the soft couch, leaving a place on the other side, and then patted the empty position with his hand with some weakness, and whispered softly: "Sit and say." ”
The eldest princess got up from the ground and sat down next to the Son of Heaven.
The Son of Heaven held his sister's hand, and his voice was weak.
"It's all fate, and you can't resist it."
"Since the fifth year of Taikang, I have had problems with my body, but at that time there was no big problem, and I didn't tell outsiders that I had been relying on medicine to support me."
The Son of Heaven, who had been an emperor for ten years, sighed slowly.
"The people of the Zhang family in Longhu Mountain said that I have no destiny for the Son of Heaven, and if I am forcibly pushed to the position of the Son of Heaven, I am destined to not last long, as short as seven years, and as long as ten years."
Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven slowly closed his eyes.
"I am the successor of Layue in the eighteenth year of Chengde, and now I ...... It is November of the tenth year of Taikang, and there is still a month to go before the tenth year. ”
The eldest princess's eyes widened.
"How can Brother believe in the heresy of the demons?"
"I don't want to believe it."
The Son of Heaven sighed slightly: "But what he said has all come true." ”
"There was no Chang'an back then, and I probably couldn't be the emperor, and it was Chang'an who pushed me to this position, which was one of them."
The Son of Heaven closed his eyes and said slowly: "The second is that when I was in the seventh year of Taikang, I did have a serious illness and almost died. ”
"At that time, the Tai Hospital was helpless, if it weren't for the Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain, you wouldn't have seen Brother Ah a long time ago."
The eldest princess frowned.
In the seventh year of Taikang, that is, three years ago, the Son of Heaven did quit the dynasty for a month, but at that time, no one knew what it was, and it was rumored that the Son of Heaven had a new concubine, so he quit the dynasty for no reason.
Unlike Li Xin, the eldest princess is also a person of this era, how much will believe in some gods and ghosts, hearing this, she has already believed some, and said: "In this case, brother, let the people from Longhu Mountain enter Beijing again, and show ......"
The Son of Heaven shook his head.
"I have my own body."
He took the eldest princess's hand, barely squeezing out a smile on his face.
"I thought I wouldn't be able to see you anymore, but now I'm very happy to see you."
The eldest princess had tears streaming down her face.
The Son of Heaven barely squeezed out a smile: "The queen mother is still here, if I die, the queen mother and her old people may not be able to bear it, it depends on Xiao Jiu to comfort you......"
Hearing this, the eldest princess couldn't bear it anymore, and lay in the arms of the Son of Heaven, crying loudly.
"Brother, you won't die, you're only thirty-three years old......"
The Son of Heaven shook his head, patted the eldest princess on the back, and continued: "You heard me say ......"
He glanced at Xiao Jiu and continued, "To be honest, I now regret letting you marry Li Xin. ”
The eldest princess raised her head and looked at the Son of Heaven.
The Son of Heaven smiled.
"If he weren't your husband, even if I died, I would definitely take him with me."
