Empress Xiao Zhaoren in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 124

Rong Ruo was silent for a long time, then asked in a low voice: "What did Ama mean just now?"

Mingzhu saw that Rongruo was enlightened, stroked her beard and smiled lightly: "Ama will show you two ways. Either give up that child Ronghuang and live your own life, and then Ama will find you a good girl to be your wife .Or find a way to get close to her, stay by her side, and win her heart step by step. And then...then, you don't have to worry about it for the time being."

Rong Ruo immediately sensed that there was something wrong with this matter, but he didn't dismantle Mingzhu immediately, but said that he wanted to be alone for a while and think about what to do in the future.

Mingzhu always has her own purpose in doing things.The direct purpose of his coming here today to persuade Rong Ruo is naturally to cheer up Rong Ruo, so what is the deeper meaning?
Rong Ruo didn't understand this meaning until three years later.

It turned out that Mingzhu saw that the marriage between the Nalan family and the Niu Hulu family failed, so she had a crooked idea of ​​being tied to the Niu Hulu family.And in Mingzhu's view, although Rong Ruo has both civil and military skills, he is not suitable for politics at all.So for Rong Ruo, the best choice is to go away and fly away.

Rong Ruo, who has been troubled by "not getting what she wants" for three years, naturally cherishes it even more after getting Rong Huang.Although he intends to go all the way south, considering Rong Huang's mood and safety, Rong Ruo agreed to temporarily settle down with her in the north.

At that time, Rong Huang was in a trance, thinking about Si elder brother all day long, and was cold to everyone.Rong Ruo didn't care, he talked to her every day, and told her everything he had inquired about the fourth elder brother.Gradually, Rong Huang was finally willing to let go of the knot in her heart.

After more than a year of escaping from the palace, Rong Ruo officially married Rong Huang.There is no high hall to prove, no relatives and friends to accompany, no banquet like flowing water, only an absolutely sincere heart.But for the two of them, it was enough.

The so-called "beginning with estrus, ending with courtesy", because Rong Huang had always been someone else's wife before, Rong Ruo had never been married to her.Later, there were times when I was distracted and infatuated in more than a year, but I never broke through the last bottom line.

On the wedding night, he lifted her red hijab, and the couple drank a cup of wine.Rong Ruo vaguely knew what to do, but didn't know how to do it.Even the parents of conservative ancient women would give a few erotic pictures to the bottom of the dowry box before they got married. Rong Ruo's parents were not around, but they didn't know it clearly.

Rong Huang saw that he had tossed and tossed for a long time but still couldn't get the point, so he had to endure his shyness and undressed little by little.

That night, the moonlight was gentle, the bamboo shadows were mottled, and the candlelight was lingering.

Two people who have been in love for a long time, finally came together.

Many people act impulsively and impulsively when they are young.But some people are grateful for their impulsiveness, and can spend their entire lives taking responsibility for their actions.But some people can only live in annoyance and self-blame forever, failing themselves and even the lovers around them.

Rong Ruo is obviously the kind of responsible person.One year, two years, three years after getting married... Ten years have passed, they are no longer what they used to be, but Rong Ruo is still firm in his heart for Rong Huang, never wavering at all.

It's just that they are ordinary people, and there will inevitably be disputes between husband and wife.In the 23rd year of Kangxi, Rong Huang insisted on going north to see Obai die.Rong Ruo couldn't talk to her no matter what, and for the first time couldn't help being angry with her.He originally planned to stay in the study and not return overnight, but he couldn't sleep because of too many worries, so he put on his clothes and got up and walked in the yard.

The cool night was as heavy as water, Rong Huang was wearing thin clothes, quietly staring in a daze under the moonlight.Rong Ruo's heart suddenly softened.He thought that maybe Rong Huang was destined to be the hurdle in his life, since he couldn't pass it, he had no choice but to admit it.

Whether it's a blessing or a curse, it's up to her.

That night, Rong Ruo had a very strange dream.In the dream, Rong Huang died of illness in the palace in the 17th year of Kangxi, and he will die young in the 24th year of Kangxi.

Rong Ruo woke up frightened by this nightmare.

Rong Huang has always been a light sleeper, he opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and asked him in a daze, "What's wrong?"

Rong Ruo gasped silently, and it took a while to calm down and talk about the dream just now.Who would have thought that Rong Huang would not be surprised when he heard this, but instead chuckled lightly: "Go to sleep, that's all in the past. Now you and I will always be fine and live well..."

Rong Ruo's intuition told him that Rong Huang was not lying.What he dreamed might really be their past life, something they should have experienced.But Rong Huang chose to leave the palace with him, so everything changed.

Rong Ruo suddenly felt relieved about his choice just now.Although going north was very risky, the fact that Rong Huang chose to let go of the Queen's position and fly away with him has changed Rong Ruo's fate.Maybe he won't die young again, or maybe...he only has one year to live.Since there are not many days left, why not let every day of life be spent to the fullest?
It doesn't matter who owes more to whom in this life, and who pays more for whom.Because for Rong Ruo, the most important thing in his life is to be with her.Even if his fame, power, and even life are blocked.

He didn't want to compete for the first place in Vanity Fair, as long as he was her only one, it was enough.

Because being together is more important than anything else.

Yinzhen
During the Qing Dynasty, the education of the princes was very strict. They had to get up before dawn to study, learn the three languages ​​of Manchu, Mongolian and Chinese, and only have a few days of vacation a year.

This day, when I came out of school from the upper study room, several older brothers walked together.The crown prince and the fourth elder brother walked side by side at the front, the eldest elder brother stretched his waist and walked in the middle, leaving only the third elder brother lagging behind blankly.

The prince and the fourth elder brother were talking in a low voice.

Passing by a grove with mottled lights and shadows, Yinzhen was in a daze, only to hear the prince say in a deep voice: "Fourth brother, did you deliberately keep quiet just now because Huang Ama was looking at us?"

Yinzhen was stunned for a moment, then said lightly, "No."

The prince asked suspiciously: "Really? I thought you were afraid of showing off, so you let me in on purpose."

Yinzhen pulled the corners of his lips lightly: "His Royal Highness is worrying too much. Huang Ama knows exactly how much talent Yinzhen has."

The crown prince heaved a sigh of relief, but the fourth elder brother smiled deeper in his heart.

In fact, the prince's guess was correct, he did deliberately give way to the prince just now, and the emperor also saw it clearly.He just wanted his Huang Ama to feel that he was patient with the prince because he didn't have a queen mother, and used his prudence to win Kangxi's sympathy.

If you want to take it, you must first give it.Yinzhen doesn't care about gains and losses for a while.

This is what his empress mother taught him.

Although Yinzhen didn't grow up by her side, he is no stranger to Ronghuang.Not only because he was used to belittle the portraits of Rong Huang in the palace, but more importantly because Rong Huang left him a "fairyland".This ring has been worn on him since he was a child, and has never left his body.

When Yinzhen was seven years old, he accidentally entered the space for the first time.Later, he gradually figured out the way to use the space, and found the letter left by Rong Huang in it.

It turned out that Rong Huang had concerns back then, worrying that she would not be able to take her fourth elder brother out of the palace, so she wrote dozens of letters to Yinzhen in advance during her pregnancy.It roughly wrote down the direction of the Kangxi Dynasty in the next few decades, but it did not tell Si Age who was the last person to ascend the throne.

Because Rong Huang wanted the fourth elder brother to make his own choice.Do you choose to ascend to the position of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, or let go of everything and just be an ordinary mountain villager.

Rong Huang pointed out in the first letter that if the fourth elder brother wanted to live with her, they only needed to pass the news through Niuhulu Mansion in the capital, and then they could find a way to take the fourth elder brother out of the palace.

At that year, the fourth elder brother was only seven years old, and it was not too late.But Yinzhen's choice is obviously to stay.

He is grateful to his mother for letting him make his own choices.Because for him, forbearance and indifference are just a superficial disguise, and looking down on the world is his real ambition.And even though Rong Huang is not around, Concubine Yi regards him as his own, and Yin Zhen never feels that he lacks his mother's love.

He didn't leave, not because he was used to the pampered life in the past few years, but because deep in Yinzhen's heart, he had always longed to be on the throne.

The identity of the queen's son undoubtedly helped him.Moreover, Rong Huang also mentioned in a later letter that his adoptive mother, Concubine Yi, will also ascend to the post.Yinzhen would not believe such prophetic words, but after seeing this wonderful fairyland with his own eyes, Yinzhen chose to believe in Ronghuang [-]%.

But for the sake of safety, Yinzhen was not in a hurry to see Ronghuang.It wasn't until later when his position was stable that no one would suspect him when he went out to do errands, did Yinzhen follow the clues left by Rong Huang to find her.

Yinzhen has no intention of blaming Ronghuang, because in his opinion, everyone has the right to choose the life they want to live.If his queen mother can no longer endure the life in the palace, then even if she stays, she will only become a burden to him.It is too common for a queen to fall out of favor and implicate her son.

But now, Rong Huang's departure has obviously become Yin Zhen's help.Due to the early death of the empress, she has become a white moonlight on the tip of Xuan Ye's heart, and no favorite concubine will surpass her position in Kangxi's heart in the future.This is exactly what Yinzhen hoped to see.
