Chapter 333 Mother and Son
Queen Pei hasn't shed tears for a long time.
She was too weak in the first half of her life and would only cry and cry alone in secret. Since her daughter entered the palace and recognized each other, she made up her mind to be strong and never cry again.
At this moment, her heart was surging and excited, and the gap between mother and son over the years was completely broken. What she shed was tears of excitement and joy.
After crying for a long time, Empress Pei's mood slowly calmed down.
The sixth prince also cried for a while, his eyes slightly red and swollen, and he wiped the tears from his face shyly: "The mother is a woman, so it's fine to cry. The son minister is a seven-foot man, so he shouldn't cry so fragile."
A seven-foot man?
Queen Pei glanced at the little handsome young man with a thin figure and couldn't help but smile and joke: "Yes, yes, yes, you are a man who stands tall and upright. The mother should not underestimate you. From now on, you will protect the mother."
The Sixth Prince didn't think this was a joke and straightened his chest: "Of course. In the future, the son will definitely protect his mother."
Empress Pei burst into laughter and then felt a strong sense of guilt.
Over the years, she has never been a good mother. Her son is such a kind, honest, and filial child.
Empress Pei suppressed the surging emotions in her heart and said softly: "Xiao Liu, your second emperor will write such an unknown letter in the future, so you don't have to pay attention to it."
"He is your brother, the prince of Great Chu. You are also the son of your father, and the prince born from the legitimate prince. Your father values your eldest brother and the second brother, so can't you be more pampered?"
"Now you are in the imperial village, they are far away, and there is still a letter. When you return to the palace in the future, such troubles and troubles will only increase."
"If you just care about other people's thoughts and feel wronged and endure, you have to live a life of depression. Xiaoliu, is this the life you want?"
...
Is this the life you want?
Of course not.
So what does the life I want look like?
The Sixth Prince opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. It seemed that thousands of words were pouring over to his mouth, but he couldn't speak a word. The sudden thoughts that passed by his heart frightened him and made him inexplicably passionate.
Empress Pei let go of the sixth prince and took a few steps back.
The mother and son looked at each other under the bright candle.
Queen Pei's eyes were brighter than the candle, flashing with a heart-pounding light.
The Sixth Prince suddenly felt his throat tightening, and he tried his best to spit out a few words: "Mother, don't you like the Second Emperor's Brother?"
The second prince is the eldest son of his mother and the future crown prince whom everyone takes for granted. Even if the eldest prince is more loyal to the holy family, the Tian family, which attaches importance to their origins, is naturally lower than the second prince.
He also always thought that his mother must fully support the second emperor's brother as the crown prince.
He never thought...
Never thought that my mother had such deep hopes and expectations for him.
Empress Pei looked at the sixth prince and said slowly: "Xiao Liu, it doesn't matter whether I like your second prince or not. He is the second prince born in the legitimate family, five years older than you. In the eyes of everyone, he should be the best candidate for the crown prince."
"As a mother, I will never obstruct it."
"If you have the intention of competing for the throne, your mother will spare no effort to support you."
One is "not obstructing from middle age", and the other is "spendless support". The difference is that even the stupidest person can hear it.
Of course, the Sixth Prince is not stupid. His spiritual understanding in studying amazed several Taifu, and his extraordinary intelligence is obvious to all.
After hearing these words, the Sixth Prince was shocked and disbelief and could not speak for a long time.
Queen Pei didn't say anything more. She had already said enough tonight. Wait until the young sixth prince slowly savored it and thought it through!
"Xiao Liu, it's getting late, you can go to bed earlier!" Empress Pei gently stroked the Sixth Prince's head and whispered softly: "It's time for the Queen Mother to go back."
The sixth prince was still in a state of shock and nodded reflexively.
Empress Pei glanced at the Sixth Prince deeply, then turned around and left.
...
The door opened and closed again.
The room was completely in a silence that was almost silent.
The Sixth Prince stood there blankly, not moving.
The mind was full of chaos and it was unclear. It seemed that a huge rock pressing on his heart was moved, and suddenly it showed a dazzling light. He was almost instinctively attracted by the light and wanted to step forward...
Is he really OK?
Can he do it?
The blood in the body suddenly surged rapidly, mixed with a hint of fear, but more, it was rushing and rushing happily.
QQQ!
The Sixth Prince was startled by the sudden knock on the door: "Who?"
The voice of the eunuch sounded outside the door: "Your Highness, it's already midnight, I'm serving Your Highness to sleep."
Before I knew it, it was already midnight.
The sixth prince took a deep breath, rubbed his stiff face hard, and forced himself to calm down: "Come in!"
The door was pushed open, and a beautiful eunuch walked in. The eunuch was surnamed Liu, and he was eighteen years old this year. When the sixth prince was six years old, he went to serve the sixth prince and was deeply trusted by the sixth prince.
Seeing the sixth prince with a tense face and was worried, Eunuch Liu couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "What's wrong with Your Highness? Could it be that something happened?"
How dare the Sixth Prince reveal a few words about what Empress Pei had just said, and said vaguely: "It's nothing. I practiced too much arrows this afternoon, my arms were sore, and I still feel very uncomfortable now."
Eunuch Liu did not ask too much, and said in the voice of the Sixth Prince: "Since that is the case, Your Highness should rest early! You will have to get up early tomorrow to accompany you!"
The sixth prince nodded and quickly took off his clothes and went to bed.
In the past, I could fall asleep with a pillow. But I tossed and turned tonight and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
...
When the next morning, the Sixth Prince saw a faint green shadow, and he knew that he had not had a good sleep at night.
"My son wishes to my father and mother." The sixth prince cheered up and bowed to pay tribute to me.
Empress Pei reached out to support Emperor Xuanhe and sat up on the bed, and smiled and said, "Don't give me a favor."
After Emperor Xuan He sat upright, his eyes fell on the handsome face of the sixth prince, who looked a little haggard and haggard: "Xiao Liu, why are your face so ugly? Could it be that he didn't sleep well last night?"
Cheng Jinrong also looked over with concern.
The sixth prince raised his head and looked at Cheng Jinrong quickly. Then, he looked at Empress Pei, who was smiling slightly, for a moment, and answered: "The arm of Erchen is still a little sore, and he can't sleep after tossing and turning at night."
At this time, Du Tidian came, and Cheng Jinrong could leave and rest.
Emperor Xuanhe opened his mouth and ordered: "Doctor Cheng, you can take a look at the Sixth Prince."
