Anecdotes of Tianyuan: The Long Night is Young

Chapter 169

Only two days later, Han Qiuyi couldn't wait to go to Yaohua Palace and tell Qiu Ruyu about this matter. Although her words were tactful, Qiu Ruyu was not stupid, so she heard clearly.Qiu Ruyu didn't cry or fuss after hearing this, just like an ordinary person.Han Qiuyi's face was apologetic, but Qiu Ruyu comforted Han Qiuyi that it has been so many years, so there is no need to be sad.Han Qiuyi couldn't believe that Qiu Ruyu's reaction was so ordinary, as if he had just heard something gossip.Qiu Ruyu insisted that she was fine, she had let go of it after so many years, and she didn't look sad at all.Han Qiuyi dawdled in Yaohua Palace for a long time with half-belief, while Qiu Ruyu continued to embroider with a needle and thread.After a long time, Han Qiuyi confirmed that she was fine before leaving Yaohua Palace.Zhao Xiyan's reaction when he learned about Qiu Ruyu was also very strange. After probing for a long time, he still didn't cry or make trouble, and nothing happened.

Within two days, Zhao Xiyan saw that Qiu Ruyu didn't react much, so he picked out some gifts and sent them to comfort him.Zhao Xiyan sent away Zhao Linghan's biological mother overnight, and ordered Zhao Linghan to be conferred the title of Princess Sixian, announcing Zhao Linghan's life experience.It's just a girl's film, and she will marry in the future, and she can't inherit the title of Prince Xian, and no one cares about it.On the day Zhao Linghan was canonized as the princess, she was tearful and reluctant, and the people around her were all unfamiliar faces.Zhao Xiyan couldn't take into account the pain of being separated from her biological mother at a young age, so she could only bring her back to the palace with a straight face and hand her over to Han Qiuyi to raise her.Zhao Xiyan repeatedly told her that Yu Bi's name had become a thing of the past, and she should not mention her former parents, siblings, and remember that she was the daughter of the late Prince Xian and the honorable Princess Daqi.Zhao Linghan was very conflicted, and Zhao Xiyan showed the majesty of an emperor, with a serious face, so scared that she could only obediently accept her fate.

Suddenly there was a ten-year-old little princess in the palace, and all the women in the harem came to Han Qiuyi to have a look and recognize his face, otherwise they would accidentally offend him in the future, and the emperor was afraid that they would not be able to please them if he protected the calf.Qiu Ruyu brought Zhao Qichen and prepared generous gifts to join in the fun, welcoming Prince Xian back to the palace.Xia Shuning always felt that it was strange that Qiu Ruyu was so generous, so she stayed by her side all the way.Qiu Ruyu met the orphan of the Xian Prince in Han Qiuyi's Chonghua Palace, Zhao Linghan hid behind the big palace ladies and dared not look at these beautiful ladies.Zhao Linghan is going to be ten years old this year, and she is already very sensible. She knows that she is the emperor's niece, and her mother will never see her again in this life, and she will never go back to the home where there is not enough food and clothing.Qiu Ruyu took Zhao Qichen by the hand and looked straight at the little girl. Seeing that face, Qiu Ruyu smiled.

"Mother and concubine, is this the daughter of the thirteenth emperor's uncle? Father's new princess?"

"Yes, go and say hello to my sister, you are an older brother, take good care of my sister in the future."

"My son will take good care of my sister."

Zhao Qichen broke free from Qiu Ruyu's hand and ran towards Zhao Linghan, the two children looked at each other.Zhao Linghan was much taller than Zhao Qichen, Zhao Qichen felt a little unhappy seeing that he was half a head shorter than this sister.He is the eldest son, and all the children are younger than him, so naturally they are all shorter than him.Now seeing a younger sister who is about the same age so much taller than him, the little guy's self-esteem is a little damaged.

"My sister is called Linghan, right? I am the eldest son of my father, and my biological mother is a concubine named Qichen. Everyone in the palace calls me the eldest prince. The emperor's grandmother said that I am a few months older than you. In the future, you will follow me." How about calling me brother? My brothers and sisters all call me that."

Zhao Linghan didn't know how to face this elder brother, and timidly pulled the clothes of the palace maid and dared not come out.He just nodded to Zhao Qichen and didn't make a sound.

"I'm talking to you, why don't you answer me? My father said that it's unbecoming of a gentleman to ignore people."

Zhao Linghan is in this deep palace, the only person she is familiar with is Zhao Xiyan, she has not had much contact with Han Qiuyi.Hearing Qichen mention Zhao Xiyan, he felt scared and wanted to see him again.The little girl stepped forward timidly, lowering her head and not daring to look at Zhao Qichen again.Yesterday Zhao Xiyan checked the prince and princess's homework. Zhao Qichen had already asked this sister, Zhao Xiyan, and knew that she might be a little shy and scared.Zhao Qichen stretched out a hand to Zhao Linghan's eyes, and spread out his palm, it was a delicate and beautiful head flower.

"This is a gift from me to congratulate you on your return to the palace. Father said that you will be uncomfortable when you come back, so he told me to take care of you. I don't know what girls like. It was Mu Ning who said that girls like hair. Bought it. Take a look, do you like it?"

Zhao Linghan looked at the hair flower in Zhao Qichen's hand, it was indeed delicate and beautiful, she had never seen such a beautiful hair flower.

"Is this...for me?"

Zhao Qichen was very happy when he finally heard her speak, he laughed and nodded.

"Yes, it's specially given to you, please accept it quickly."

Zhao Qichen stuffed the hair flower into her hand, Zhao Linghan was a little at a loss, but still took it.She firmly remembered that Zhao Xiyan said that anyone in the palace can accept gifts, and she is what the Princess deserves.Zhao Linghan was sure that this good-looking brother was not malicious, and he was a little more courageous.The two children chatted with each other, Zhao Qichen was the eldest son of the emperor and had never done many things, while Zhao Linghan was born and raised in a poor family and had done all kinds of jobs since childhood, but somehow they chatted well.Zhao Qichen shared with her the grasshopper that the eunuch gave him a few days ago, Zhao Linghan also forgot the sadness, after all, he was a child, so they played together very quickly.Qiu Ruyu and Xia Shuning didn't care what the two children were doing, Qi Chen took Zhao Linghan to Ganquan Palace to find Qi Rui.Seeing the two children happily playing together, Qiu Ruyu didn't say anything, just laughed and laughed, his expression darkened for a moment and then turned into that calm and breezy look.Seeing her like this, Xia Shuning always felt uneasy, but she couldn't tell where she was uneasy.

Zhao Xiyan has been busy in the previous court, checking the children's homework every day, and taking care of diet and daily life.Now that Zhao Linghan has entered the palace, Zhao Xiyan will also ask her about her situation every day.Han Qiuyi took out his heart to love her. She is so old that she understands how others treat her well, and she gets closer to Han Qiuyi a lot.But Zhao Qichen, Zhao Qirui, and Zhao Muning didn't have much time to visit her, they went to the Imperial Academy every day.At this time, Zhao Linghan still needs to learn more about etiquette in the palace and adapt to the life in the palace before he can enter the imperial school.There was no response from Qiu Ruyu, and there was no response after a few days, so Zhao Xiyan was relieved and didn't ask her any more.On the contrary, Wu Qingyao was surprised. In the past, Baba came to deliver lunch every day, and he did not hesitate to make up all kinds of reasons in order to see himself, but now it is silent.Today, a Suzhou dish was delivered from the imperial dining room, and he remembered that Wu Qingyao hadn't appeared for many days.It's not that he doesn't know what Wu Qingyao is thinking, even if Wu Qingyao accepts his daughter body, he can't accept Wu Qingyao as a person.He knew that Wu Qingyao had a pitiful background, those things were not voluntary by her, they were forced, and he also knew that she had admired him for many years.But he always thought of the bowl of abortion pills, Chu Hengyuan, and the scene on the cliff of Nanshan.He couldn't be so magnanimous that he could even forget these grievances, because Wu Qingyao abetted the evil, and he didn't want to recall how much he had suffered.If he hadn't pitied her for having no one to rely on, no family and no reason, he wouldn't have wanted to keep her in the palace at all.Wu Qingyao was able to deliver lunch every day, firstly because of the empress dowager's face, secondly because of the serious illness and knife marks on her hands that year, and thirdly because of her infatuation.Zhao Xiyan just couldn't bear to break her heart and let her fall into obsession.

That night Zhao Xiyan went to Ganquan Palace to stay overnight, Qixing cried all night, and Zhao Xiyan coaxed all night.Ulan Rongruo watched Zhao Xiyan coaxing grapes with her chin resting on her cheeks, enjoying it very much.After finally coaxing Qi Xing to sleep, Ulan Rongruo hooked Zhao Xiyan's index finger like a fox and walked to the bed.In the middle of the night, just as I fell asleep, a notification sound came suddenly.

"Your Majesty! The empress is bringing the eldest prince to see me!"

"It's midnight, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"Your Majesty, the Eldest Prince is crying non-stop, and the Empress can't help it."

"I'm wearing some clothes, please wait a moment for the queen and the eldest prince."

Both Zhao Xiyan and Ulan Rongruo were woken up. Zhao Xiyan was suffering from a head ache from lack of sleep. He half leaned against the bedside and rubbed his temples with Ulan Rongruo in his arms.Ulan Rongruo was also extremely sleepy, after all, she had exhausted all her strength just now, and she was lying limp in Zhao Xiyan's arms.Zhao Xiyan wondered if the child couldn't memorize the book, and Ruyu hit his palm again.Zhao Xiyan pulled himself together, fastened Ulan Rongruo's clothes, helped her get into a sleeping position, and covered her with the quilt.

"Let Ruo you fall asleep, I'll go out to see Qichen, and I'll be back in a while."

Ulan Rongruo hugged his waist, not letting Zhao Xiyan go, but she was too sleepy to speak.Zhao Xiyan touched her forehead, then kissed her lips to show comfort, then got up, and stuffed her hands back into the quilt along the way.Zhao Xiyan was afraid that the child would be in a hurry, so he quickly put on some clothes and went out, yawning profusely.When Qichen saw Zhao Xiyan, she cried even louder and hugged Zhao Xiyan's waist.

"Chen'er, what's the matter?"

"Father...Emperor..." Qi Chen cried louder and louder, Zhao Xiyan couldn't understand what he said.

"Your Majesty, just now, the maids of the Yaohua Palace sent Qi Chen to Fengqi Palace overnight, without saying anything. Qi Chen kept crying, saying that some concubine did not want him. The courtiers and concubines were also confused, but the child cried I can't stop, and the concubine Xian's place is closed again, and the concubines can only come to disturb the emperor."

When Zhao Xiyan heard this, he yawned and ran away. What's going on?Zhao Xiyan wiped Qichen's tears away with his hands, and hurriedly asked him.

"Chen'er, what's going on? What does it mean that the concubine doesn't want you anymore?"

"Mother concubine... She said that she would send the child to Fengqi Palace to be raised by the empress, and told the child to forget her as his biological mother, and told the child not to hate her. I don't understand... Why did the concubine mother say that? Is the concubine mother not wanting Chen'er anymore? Royal father... You persuade concubine mother... Concubine mother will definitely listen to what imperial father says. "

Zhao Xiyan was startled when he heard this, is Concubine Xian Tuogu?Zhao Xiyan thought that Qiu Ruyu's reaction when she knew the existence of the child was indeed too abnormal. With her temperament, she should have questioned and cried a lot.Zhao Xiyan thought that if Ruyu loves his son like his life, if he can do the thing of entrusting Gu, he definitely doesn't intend to live.

"Empress, Concubine Xian is going to kill herself, send someone to Yaohua Palace to stop her, don't make a big fuss."

"The concubine knows."

Su Qingshu's pupils widened. In her eyes, Qiu Ruyu had always been a gentle and submissive person, and he loved his son like his own life. How could he be willing to abandon his son to commit suicide?Su Qingshu quickly recovered from his surprise, and hurried to Yaohua Palace with the maid.Zhao Xiyan hugged Qichen tightly, wiped away his tears, and comforted him.

"Your mother and concubine will not want you. She has always loved Chen'er the most, right? She had a quarrel with her father, and she is angry. Just like you and Qi Rui quarreled, he ignored you, right? You Stay in Ganquan Palace for a while, Father will ask Empress Rong to accompany you, and come to pick you up later, okay?"

Qichen is getting old, although he doesn't understand what self-inflicted suicide is, but he also vaguely feels that it is not a good thing.But he has always been obedient, Zhao Xiyan asked him to stay in Ganquan Palace, and he stayed in Ganquan Palace obediently.

"Go and wake up Concubine Shu, let her accompany the First Prince, and prevent the First Prince from running around, let alone wake up the Seventh Prince."

"Slaves obey the orders!"

Zhao Xiyan only put on a coat and didn't even bother to put it on, so he went to Yaohua Palace after explaining.Zhao Xiyan was very anxious, and only hoped that it would not be too late.If it is too late, it will be a big mistake.He should have known Qiu Ruyu's temperament long ago, and would not accept this matter so easily. He was annoyed why he was deceived by Qiu Ruyu's clumsy acting skills?
