There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 359

At that time, he will be an ordinary commoner.

Regardless of his succession, whoever becomes the emperor, he will find an outdoor peach garden in the mountains and fields to live his life in peace.

He needs to be quiet, to recuperate, and most importantly, to live his own life, to enjoy the joys of the world with the people around him.

But in this life, he will still miss it after all, miss his mother, miss Tang Wanning, miss Changchang, miss Haiyan, miss Jingming.

As a so-called good emperor, he not only failed his wife, but also never spent a whole day with his children seriously. He was not a good husband, let alone a good father.

In this life, after all, he missed too much and got too little, and what he got was not what he wanted.

If someone said at this moment that he wanted to be an emperor, and he absolutely guaranteed to be a good emperor who loved the people like a son, he would rather give up the country to him.

"Don't think about it, you are not in good health, you can't blow the cold wind for too long, let's go back quickly, have a good rest tonight, and we have to leave tomorrow."

Xia Houjue smiled lightly, and finally had no choice but to hug her: "Okay, I won't think about it."

……

At the end of summer and early autumn, the two left Qizhou where they had stayed for half a month, and went south to Jiangnan.

Although I have been to Jiangnan several times, but since autumn is ahead, it is really inappropriate to go north again, so I simply continued to stroll in Jiangnan.

Xia Houjue was very regretful along the way: "It's a pity that I didn't go to the northernmost Mozhou to take a look, and you in the northwest, I heard that the people there are much richer than before, thanks to our business exchanges with the Tubo Ministry. "

"Yes, I want to go too. I haven't been back for many years, and I don't know what the old mansion has become now." Tang Wanning suddenly felt a little disappointed.

Xia Houjue suddenly smiled: "Don't tell me, I really want to live in your former mansion for a while, and I want to feel your former life."

"Wanwan, I really want to go, or we..."

Tang Waning rejected him, with a tiger face and a tough attitude: "You can go if you want, but you have to wait until next spring and summer. The weather there is already very bad, and you can't bear it at all."

"Wan Wan?"

"No!" Tang Wanning resolutely refused, and Xia Houjue had no choice but to keep silent, never mentioning the matter of going now.

……

The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is still beautiful. The two used to wander around the city, but now they suddenly decided to go to the countryside.

"Let's buy a small yard. There is a stream and a pond in front of the yard, and there is a large fruit forest behind the house. A pear blossom should be planted on the left side, and plum blossoms or begonias should be planted on the right side. If it is not possible, all fruit trees will do."

"Let's fish and cook shrimp in autumn, enjoy plum blossoms and eat hot pot in winter, enjoy peach blossoms and apricot blossoms in spring, and enjoy lotus flowers in summer, what do you think?" Tang Wanning was very excited.

Xia Houjue counted the time, and his eyes slipped through the darkness for a moment, which was fleeting.

"it is good!"

Maybe it can't be done, no, definitely can't be done, but at this moment he would rather lie than let her down.

Her smiling face is so beautiful, she has never smiled so brightly in her life, just let her smile for a while, even if it is only a few months, it is enough.

Wanwan, I'm sorry, I'm sorry for you.

……

You can buy the small yard as soon as you say it, it is located in a place with beautiful mountains and clear waters, exactly as Tang Wanning imagined, with streams and rivers, mountains and rivers and land.

She can use this land to grow all kinds of delicious and beautiful things, and she can finally stay in a house and wait for the seasons to come.

After everything was settled, it was almost Mid-Autumn Festival. Living in a hut with beautiful mountains and rivers, lying on a thick and soft cotton quilt, she was so happy that she just wanted to bubble.

"It's so beautiful here. There are water chestnuts in the pond. That's great. Let's eat water chestnuts at night?"

"it is good!"

Xia Houjue looked at her dotingly, and in the afternoon, she really went to pick water chestnuts by herself.

In the evening, Tang Wanning really ate boiled water chestnuts in salt water. The crisp, tender and white water chestnuts exuded the fragrance of spring water. Nothing could replace that breath of nature that only belonged to nature.

It was night, they were sitting on the chairs under the flower gallery under the starry sky, eating water chestnut while looking at the starry sky.

Xia Houjue's eyes were a bit melancholy, and he always liked to look at her affectionately when he was not speaking.

Tang Wanning didn't think much about it, she just sighed while gnawing on the water chestnut: "Oh, it would be great if it was Haiyan and Jingming, but it's really not good, it's okay to take Jingming over?"

Haiyan is a prince, it would be embarrassing for him to be unpromising in the future, even if he doesn't need to be top-notch in everything, he still needs to learn about the same, in short, he can't be laughed at.

But Jingming is a girl, I don't know who she looks like, she is gentle and gentle, smart and dexterous, soft and sweet, and beautiful, so bright and beautiful that one can't wait to hide her in the greenhouse and not let her see any wind and rain for the rest of her life .

"I don't know who Jingming looks like. He's so gentle and graceful, he doesn't look like a descendant of my Tang family."

Xia Houjue, however, was in a trance, and murmured for a long time: "To tell you the truth, Jingming's appearance is a little like my mother's queen. I think this gentle, transparent and dexterous personality is also followed by my mother's."

Tang Wanning suddenly realized that from the perspective of genetics, Jing Ming is the granddaughter of the first empress dowager, and a quarter of the blood of the first empress dowager also flowed on her body, so the similarity in personality makes sense.

It's just that Jing Ming's ten-year-old girl is already so beautiful that her father, queen and empress are reluctant to let her out of the palace, and even more reluctant to let her suffer the slightest grievance.

One can imagine how beautiful the first queen mother should be.

It's no wonder that Xia Houjue was able to produce this appearance, and it's no wonder that her children are so beautiful.

This is roughly what, excellent genes can only reproduce with excellent genes, the law of excellence?

……

The days in Jiangnan passed day by day, and another year passed in the blink of an eye.

The winter here is not too cold, at least it is much warmer than the capital city, and the humidity in the mountains is smoky, so it will not be cold.

If it is really cold, the house they built is also with interlayer and earth dragon. In the coldest days, fill some charcoal in the middle, and the house will be as warm as spring, and it will never be a little bit cold.

Because of this, Xia Houjue's body can be maintained so that it will not be damaged by the cold weather.

What surprised Tang Wanning was that Xia Houjue's health seemed to be getting worse and worse. He began to try not to speak, and occasionally he would start panting after speaking a few words.

He couldn't wake up, and even if he woke up, he was sleepy, looking listless, he was getting thinner, eating less and less, the cheekbones on his face became more and more protruding, and his complexion became darker and darker .

In less than two months, he was already too thin to look like a human being.
