Chapter 8 09 The Emperor's Sadness
Lafayette's face has been dark since the morning. People in Chuxiu Palace have been criticized, even Eunuch Li has been scolded. Jiuyue stood aside to help Lafayette rub his shoulders, and said "Emperor's mother!" , why are you so angry!"

"Xiao Jiu, you don't know that the emperor used to be very obedient, but recently he has changed his personality for some reason, and even skipped classes. Do you think it is plausible to spread it?" The arms on the low table moved from side to side uneasily from time to time, panting.

"Emperor mother, the emperor is also tired, you let him rest, what's the matter, it's not too late to train him later!" Jiuyue smiled, got off the kang, stood aside and straightened his clothes.

"Hey! You help the emperor everywhere, do you want to piss off the empress?" Lafayette stared at Jiuyue impatiently, but her heart was sweet, her efforts were finally not in vain.

"Emperor Niang, let's not talk about my daughter, she still has something to do! Let's go first." Jiuyue smiled and nodded her head, and then ran outside without looking back.

Lafayette watched the people leave, sighed again, pointed to Eunuch Li and asked, "Where is the emperor now?"

"If you go back to Lafayette, the emperor will be in the Yuhua Pavilion, and the servants just looked at it and cried." Eunuch Li felt a little distressed when he said that, seeing that the emperor would secretly go to the Yuhua Pavilion these days.

"The emperor is too ignorant." Lafayette felt sad when he heard this. Could it be that she has raised him for so long, even a biological mother can't do it?Thinking of this, I feel sad and angry.

"Lafayette, after all, this blood is thicker than water and it can't be cut. If Lafayette asks the emperor to go and see people, maybe it will be recorded in the annals of history!" Eunuch Li said with a smile, if it wasn't because of September he Absolutely will not speak for the emperor.

"Okay, stop talking, go down, Aijia will think about it" Lafayette shook his hands impatiently, he definitely didn't want the emperor to visit people, because the emperor was her son, not her sister's son.

Eunuch Li retreated with a few young eunuchs and maids. When he closed the door, he looked carefully inside the room, and found that Lafayette's face was dark for a while. Thinking about it, he didn't have much chance to see it, so he could only sigh against his head. .

Jiuyue is on duty today, the matter of the fifth son has been settled again, and he has nothing to do. He plans to go out of the palace for a stroll. When he passed the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Jiuyue saw the emperor walking by from a long distance, with a look of depression on his face. Walking weakly, not knowing what to do, Jiuyue didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so she turned around and left.

When the emperor raised his head and saw Jiuyue, he didn't know what to do and wanted to call someone in his heart, "Jiuzhang case" at the top of his voice.

Jiuyue closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, wanted to run away but remembered what Lafayette said today, so she turned around and walked towards the emperor. When she reached the emperor, Jiuyue smiled, "Long Live Lord shouted." Where are the slaves!"

"En! Where did you come from just now? Did you go to Chuxiu Palace?" The emperor looked at Jiuyue with fear and anxiety in his eyes.

"Long Live Lord, do you want to ask my slave, Lafayette?" Jiuyue saw the emperor's eyes were red, as if crying, and she was a little curious about what the emperor had done.

"En..." the emperor nodded his head, seeing that Jiuyue was looking at him, he turned his head and refused to let Jiuyue look at him.

"Lafayette is angry, but Long Live Lord, don't worry, Lafayette still loves Long Live Lord very much, and won't blame Long Live Lord." Jiuyue saw the emperor avoiding her eyes, and stopped looking at her, but she knew in her heart that he had something on her mind .

"I know, but Lafayette! I'm going back, you go to work first!" The emperor sighed, then turned around with blank eyes, and walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

After the emperor entered, Jiuyue saw Kou Liancai running panting behind him. Jiuyue stopped Kou Liancai, pulled his shirt, and asked, "What's wrong with Long Live Lord?"

Kou Lian took a look inside and asked again, "Did you see the Long Live Lord?"

"Yes" Jiuyue whispered, afraid that the emperor would hear it.

"Nine Palm Cases, do you have supernatural powers to leave the palace?" Kou Liancai saw Jiuyue and suddenly thought that Jiuyue was a celebrity beside Lafayette and a high-ranking person, so he naturally guessed in his heart that Jiuyue could go out of the palace freely. So I asked curiously.

"I'm going out of the palace now, is there something wrong?" Jiuyue asked with raised eyes.

"Jiu Zhang case, you must help the Long Live Lord, do you know the birth mother of the Long Live Lord, Prince Chun Fujin?" Kou Lian heard this, full of hope in his heart, and said while holding Jiu Yue's hand.

"I know" September has heard of this.

"Prince Jin, Fujin, is dying. He is on the verge of death. He wanted to insist on that tone because he wanted to see the Lord Long Live, but the Lord Lafayette did not say anything. The Lord Long Live will not be able to leave the palace..." Kou Liancai felt ashamed whenever he thought of the emperor's suffering. It started to smell, and tears came down while talking.

"It's simple. I will take Lord Long Live out of the palace. If Lafayette asks, just say that I took Lord Long Live to relax. You must not reveal your secrets. Before closing the palace gate, we will come back." September turned around Running into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Jiuyue knew that Lafayette would not punish her, so she dared to do so boldly.

Jiuyue told the emperor about it, and the emperor nodded in agreement. Kou Lian changed into a eunuch uniform after serving the Lord Long Live, and then fixed the clothes. Jiuyue didn't care about the matter, so he dragged the emperor away.

The two kept speeding up the pace along the way, the emperor was afraid that he would be exposed, and it was the first time he had done such a bold thing, so he lowered his hat anxiously and looked left and right along the way.

"Stop!" The guard at the palace gate saw two eunuchs coming from too far away, raised his hand to stop, saw that one was Jiu Yue, immediately changed his smile, and said respectfully, "Jiu Zhang case, it's too late to leave the palace today." A little bit."

"En" Jiuyue replied lightly, and habitually took out the badge on his waist to show them.

"What kind of badge do you use for the Jiuzhang case? If you want to leave the palace, you will definitely let him go." He smiled courteously, but subconsciously looked at the badge, and saw a little eunuch following behind him, and asked with a smile "What's behind this?"

"Follow the one who came out to help carry things." Jiuyue put away the badge and glared at him impatiently.

"Yes, yes, please..." Jiuzhang's case please." Seeing that Jiuyue's face was not looking good, she hurriedly let him go without daring to ask.

The emperor behind him held his breath nervously, the sweat dripped from his nervousness, and his body began to tremble, but how did he know that what he was worried about didn't happen, so he went out easily.

Out of the palace gate, the emperor took a deep breath, but he was still upset, and pushed Jiuyue, "I see, your airs as a eunuch are bigger than mine as an emperor!"

Jiuyue covered his mouth vigilantly, and looked back nervously. Fortunately, no one said "Long live, no...you can't say that, it would be a terrible thing if you heard it."

The emperor was covered by Jiuyue, it was the first time he saw Jiuyue's vigilance, shook his head, and then Jiuyue let go,
Taking a deep breath, the sweet scent left in his mouth spread into his mouth, he licked greedily a few times, and then looked at Jiuyue suspiciously.

Jiuyue knew the way, and the two quickly found the street. Along the way, Jiuyue could see that the emperor's heart was like an arrow. When they arrived at a majestic gate, there were big stone lions on both sides. , the four big characters "Prince Chun's Mansion" are written on the plaque.

The emperor stopped and looked more and more lost in thought. Jiuyue could understand his mood, just like her mother and Ama lost their temper, and took her away from home alone, and then died tragically under the bandit's knife. She stood alone by Erniang's side, and ended up living among the people, growing up among beggars, and was only found when she was seven or eight years old.

Jiuyue pulled the emperor's sleeves, with tears in her eyes, "Master, let's go!"

The emperor seemed to have lost his soul, and he didn't know how he got in. He only remembered that Jiuyue knocked on the door, showed a waist card, and was invited in by the housekeeper. The emperor saw that the housekeeper was still the same Uncle Liu. I know him but can I recognize him? Seeing his respectful face, even if I look at him too, I don’t think I can recognize him, and I have several feelings in my heart. These yards and these corridors are still so familiar in my memory.

The butler said in a low voice, "It's just inside this room. The servants will go down first. If you need something, you can call out." I know, back down.

"Master, do you want to go in?" Jiuyue pulled his shirt and asked in a low voice.

The emperor twisted his head, walked back and forth in the corridor, his eyes were anxious, confused, and heartbroken, and he walked chaotically with uneasy steps, and finally he stood up, looked at a window, then stood on tiptoe, stretched out He poked a small hole with his hand, squinted one eyeball to look inside, and saw the emperor's fist clenched tightly in Jiuyue, helpless and sad, facing the last side of his mother, as a son, he could only keep away like this. Peeking out of the window, perhaps because I desperately want to know everything inside, I keep tiptoeing.

Jiuyue couldn't hold back, turned around and wanted to run in, the emperor seemed to find out, grabbed Jiuyue's hand, and looked at Jiuyue firmly with tear-filled eyes, "Let's go back!"

"Master, go in and have a look." Jiuyue struggled with her hands and shook her head, she understood his pain.

"Go back! Otherwise, the gate of the palace will be closed later." Regardless of Jiuyue's struggle, the emperor pulled Jiuyue and ran away. He didn't dare to stop here, he was afraid that he would go in if he couldn't help it, but he couldn't, if he went in No, Lafayette definitely can't spare them and there is still September.

Just like that, Jiu Yue was dragged and hugged by the emperor and rushed back to the palace at the moment the palace gate closed.

Back in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the lights were already brightly lit, Jiuyue immediately realized that something was wrong, she hurriedly turned around and ran away with the emperor, the emperor also noticed something was wrong, and let Jiuyue take him away.

Jiuyue took the emperor to the North Fifth Institute, where it was very desolate and cold, entered a room, but didn't see where it was, Jiuyue took the emperor and went in, and found that it was actually a bedroom Yes, but the things have not been touched and are still dusty. It seems that no one has lived in it for a long time.

"Long Live Lord, you have to rest here tonight!" September lit up the lamp, but the dim lamp could not illuminate much, and the faint light made the desolation even more apparent.

"What about you!" the emperor asked while sitting on the bed, looking at Jiuyue who was busy lighting the lamp in the dim light.

"The slave is going to find Lafayette." After lighting a few lamps in September, she walked to the emperor's side and whispered back.

"I'll go back with you" the emperor said anxiously holding Jiuyue's hand. Jiuyue had caused trouble by taking him away from the palace privately because of him. Now that he goes back to face Lafayette alone, the criminal law must be indispensable.

"Long live, believe in this slave, you will be fine. Lafayette loves you so much. The slave will arrive at the Hall of Mental Cultivation on time tomorrow. Long live, the servant can go to bed!" Jiuyue knelt down and prepared to undress the emperor. shoe.

The emperor looked at Jiuyue and couldn't hold back the mixed emotions in his heart. After Jiuyue helped him change his clothes and covered him with the quilt, the emperor sat up again and looked at Jiuyue, "You will really be on time tomorrow."

"Long Live Lord, what the servant said is counted, Long Live Lord go to bed early!" Jiuyue helped him pull the quilt with a smile.

Jiuyue doesn't know why she treats the emperor so well, maybe it's because of the same disease!In comparison, the emperor is more miserable than her, at least she has the love of the emperor's mother and Ama, but the emperor does not have anyone's love, and the emperor's mother also has a coping affection for him. For some reason, her heart began to ache. Even breathing was so difficult, Jiuyue slowly slipped down and knelt on the footbed.

"Er Niang..." The emperor dreamed that when Er Niang was young, he often hugged him and played under the pear tree. When he was a child, he was naughty and often let E Niang chase him. This time it was the same. Er Niang kept chasing him, chasing after him Then, Er Niang was getting farther and farther away from him, the emperor suddenly bounced up, gasping for breath, holding the quilt tightly with his hands, his eyes were distracted.

"Long live Lord" Jiuyue saw the person getting up, so he quickly got up and went to see him.

"Er Niang... my Er Niang is gone, she can't catch up with me anymore." The emperor looked at Jiuyue with emptiness in his eyes, and there was sadness in his words.

"Long Live Lord...Fu Jin didn't leave, Fujin just became a star in the sky, she will always look at Long Live Lord" Jiu Yue immediately let go of her identity at this time, sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the emperor gently Said lightly.

"Really? Did Er Niang really become a star?" I didn't believe it, but I made myself believe it again. The emperor held Jiuyue's hand, tears from the corners of his eyes, and he held it tightly for fear of Jiuyue's hand. Leave "Did Erniang really become a star?"

"Long Live Lord... the servant will take you to see Fujin tomorrow night." Jiu Yue gently hugged the emperor's body, patted his back and said softly.

"Don't lie to me." The emperor also put his arms around Jiuyue, and now he can only trust her, resting his head on Jiuyue's shoulder, the faint sweet fragrance rushed into his nostrils, like a soothing scent, Jiuyue His arms are very warm, just like the arms of my mother.

After a long time, Jiuyue found that the emperor's breathing was even, so she slowly put her down on the bed. Jiuyue wiped away the tears from the corners of the emperor's eyes, and gently stroked the emperor's face with her palm, "Long Live Lord. ·Xiao Jiu will always protect you, always...always" For some reason, her eyes were also covered with a faint mist.

Many years later, until she died, he still didn't know why Jiuyue had to silently endure all his bad treatment. He would never know that the one who held her hand, ran unscrupulously in the palace, and lived together in pears... The boy who made a wish under the tree was the one who gave her hope.
