143 Epilogue(1/2)
The secret of the boudoir of the emperor and the empress is unknown. It flows eastward and faces westward and sinks westward and evening, and another three years have passed in a blink of an eye.
Three years are not long or short, many things have changed, but many things will not change. Dajing became stronger under the rule of Emperor Guangde, and the number of small countries and tribes that came to celebrate and worship was increasing. Dajing Navy also began to raise its momentum. The Yunfu Empire was quite in crisis and was ready to move.
In the Jing Palace, Chen Ning, the queen who was still childless, sat dignified and elegantly in Chunxi Palace, which had become the central palace, chatting and laughing with the eldest princess who was already a wife and the third princess who was about to marry. Before she became the queen, she had decided to stop having children again. First, she was afraid that her good luck had come to an end and did not dare to have children again to indignate the gods; second, she was also afraid that Dong Yuheng would transfer all the pitiful fatherly love to their children, so it would be too unfair to other princes and princesses. She had taken away many things from them and their mother, and she could no longer bear to take away their last things.
Dong Yuheng never mentioned this matter. Children are not very important to him. Although he also understands that Chen Ning must be different from his children, Chen Ning is worried about more days a day a year. Nothing is more important than her.
So the two of them were tacitly informed and lived happily for three years.
However, Emperor Guangde came back at night and mentioned something to Chen Ning, which immediately broke the peace. Soon, Queen Chen, who was extremely dignified in front of the people, even started a strike: "Don't do it, stop doing it, you can't do this work, and you can't live this life."
Emperor Guangde looked at the queen who was kicking her legs and making trouble in her thirties in her thirties, and scolded without any reproach, "Look at you like this!"
Chen Ning sat next to the couch, still kicking his legs and pouting, glaring at him, "No such thing is there? Don't take me when you go out to play!"
"I said that I am not going to play, I am going to inspect." Dong Yuheng said helplessly.
"Is that different?" Is it a good thing to eat public funds and have fun?
"Nonsense," Dong Yuheng walked over and said in a polite voice, "I don't want to take you out, but now that the prince is in southern Xinjiang, I will leave again, and the palace must be kept to be able to come up with some advice. I can't hand over the important tasks to the concubines or the imperial concubines, I am not at ease."
Although Chen Ning knew what he said made sense, he still said unwillingly: "You are willing to leave me."
Dong Yuheng asked Shui Yi, who was standing beside him, to go out, hugged her onto the couch, and kissed her, "Why am I willing to leave you? It's just that I left the palace this time, not only for inspection, but also for another major event."
"What's up?"
Dong Yuheng said mysteriously: "I, go and take a look at our underground palace."
Chen Ning was slightly shocked, then frowned slightly and said, "I hate tomb robbers!" In her opinion, it would be better to bury them quietly.
"Don't worry, why did I let those deceitful people disturb our quietness?"
Chen Ning was not very optimistic, "Oh, didn't I tell you before, these tomb robbers are like flies, and time has changed. Many archaeological people will openly disturb the peace of the dead in order to understand what they don't know." Although it is for the common great legacy of mankind, it doesn't matter that she is not concerned about her, but when she thinks that she will become the one who is dug in thousands of years, she can't get over that hurdle.
"Well, I've heard from you." Dong Yuheng smiled faintly.
Chen Ning felt that his smile was strange. After thinking about it carefully, he felt something was wrong. "Didn't the imperial tomb be chosen in Gongshan, Yuzhou? What are you going to Yizhou?"
Dong Yuheng whispered to her, and Chen Ning's eyes suddenly widened, "You say more details." That was a concealment!
Dong Yuheng curled his lips, hugged her and gently whispered the place where their real tomb was located, covering a lot of land, and there was a mystery. Chen Ning's eyes were straightened when he heard it. Her mother, this tomb is even more magical than the tomb in tomb robbers novels!
Her heart was pounding, and it was the first time she had learned the genius of Qimen's alien armor and ancient wisdom.
"I have also underestimated the vicissitudes of time, but through your suggestions, I have changed my mind."
"Who thought of these? I want to meet the real person." Chen Ning said with admiration on his face. These ideas are also amazing in modern times!
"Also, I want to go there to take a look, I must go and take a look!" This is simply a moment to witness the miracle of the world!
"Oh, it has not been repaired yet, and you can't see any reason when you go and see it," said Dong Yuheng. "I will take you there again when the task is completed."
Chen Ning wanted to say something, but Dong Yuheng hugged her tightly and sighed: "Ning'er, I didn't believe in these things about gods and ghosts, but since I met you, I knew you came from another world, so I firmly believed it. I will have someone set up a lot of magic in the imperial tomb. I want to rule the underground palace with you forever. Even if you are reincarnated, you can only be my wife."
Chen Ning not only felt crazy about his almost crazy possessiveness, but also felt full of affection. Perhaps, she was like him, and wanted to be with him insatiable.
"... Therefore, even if I leave before you in this life, you will feel a little aggrieved. Don't go back to your hometown, okay? I am afraid... I won't be able to find you in the next life."
Chen Ning hugged him tightly, remained silent for a long time, but said, "In the next life, if you have so many others, I will ignore you again."
Dong Yuheng heard the implication and raised her face and kissed her heavily, making her breathless.
"Vegetarian jar! Do you know if you are not allowed to marry someone in the next life?"
...Who is jealous of her or him?
Half a month later, Emperor Guangde went on a tour as he said.
Since the day she sent the emperor away, Chen Ning always felt empty. Even though some of the ordinary government affairs and trivial matters that Dong Yuheng asked her to act on behalf of her made her very busy, she still kept missing him and thought of him madly.
Sometimes she would also laugh at herself as she was getting back alive. She could have lived alone with strength, but now she is not willing to leave the warmth of his chest for a day.
When she left the palace with a fake death, she thought she loved him deeply, but she didn't expect that this love never stopped, but instead became more intense and precipitated as time grew.
She seems to understand the love word that has been passed down through the ages now.
When asked about the world, what is love? It is what makes people agree with each other.
***
Dong Yuheng left for four months before he returned to the imperial city.
There were still people in the harem who hoped that the emperor would bring back a few beauties, but they were desperate to find that he was still alone.
Chen Ningfeng was very happy.
In recent years, she said she would not learn, but actually learned some secret techniques from the room with Shui Yi. On the night of the reunion, she tried all her skills to serve the emperor comfortably and was about to die.
A night of confusion.
*Stopped, Chen Ning was sleeping with a smile on Dong Yuheng's arm. Dong Yuheng lowered his head and stared at the beautiful face who had not seen for a long time, gently stroked her hair, and there was a complex light that was indescribable in her tender eyes.
Another month later, Dong Yuheng issued an order to promote several officials. Chen Tai was appointed as the first-rank minister of the Shangshu Ling, Chen Zhao was appointed as the second-rank Guanglu Dafu, Feng Baolan was appointed as the second-rank minister of the Ministry of War, Meng Li was appointed as the deputy commander of the third-rank Black Armor Army, and Li Zixuan would also recall Changyang to serve as the Shaoqing of the fourth-rank Dali Temple.
Although there were others among them, Chen Ning felt a little strange when he heard the changes of these people.
A few days later, Dong Yuheng came back from the workshop at night. After taking a shower, she let her kneel behind him and wiped him. He took out some letters, all about the current situation of the eldest prince and the second prince.
Chen Ning was absent-minded and was about to speak, but he heard Dong Yuheng say first: "Hmph, these two kids shouldn't have stayed in the imperial city. If I had known this, I would have thrown them out." Having said that, there was satisfaction in his words.
Chen Ning knew many of their situations. He heard that most of the southern Xinjiang navy was trained by the crown prince and was deeply loved by the people in the southern Xinjiang area. And the second prince in Aldo actually formed a team of Eagle Guards composed of Kumeng warriors to kill bandits and robbers of the nomadic peoples, and the team was very strong.
"Are you very proud?" Chen Ning chuckled.
Dong Yuheng raised his lips and shook his head.
He was silent for a moment and said, "I want to be lively during the Chinese New Year this year, so I called them back together. Ziling hasn't returned to Changyang for a long time, and I miss it a little."
Chen Ning slowly stopped moving, and after a while she asked tensely, "What do you want to do?"
Dong Yuheng turned his head a little, looking puzzled, "Ning'er asked what this meant?"
"Don't fool me." Chen Ning stood in front of him, "What happened?" Why did he suddenly make so many decisions?
Dong Yuheng opened his mouth, knowing how long it would take for her to hide it, so he could only sigh and said, "I, on the way back, I suddenly felt chest tightness and shortness of breath. Wuchen and Zhang Deshun both diagnosed their pulse and said it was a strange disease."
Chen Ning's heart suddenly thundered like thunder. She pursed her lips and looked straight at him for a while, but said, "If you weren't sick now, I would have beaten you!"
Dong Yuheng raised his eyebrows.
"What are you doing to hide from me? Didn't Wuchen say that the prescription he prescribed can cure the disease?"
Originally, when Prince Fu was ill, Wuchen wanted to try this prescription, but when Prince Fu saw that there were many poisons in the prescription, he was unwilling to let Wuchen approach no matter what, and even dragged his body to kneel down in front of Dong Yuheng for a long time. Dong Yuheng had no choice but to give up. Chen Ning hated Prince Fu for this matter. Because if he tried Wuchen's prescription, he would be more confident when he went to Dong Yuheng.
"Well..." Wu Chen also said that for the first time this prescription was tried, I was afraid that the dosage of poison could not be controlled. He did not tell Chen Ning these words, "I know, I am just guarding against it."
"Beware of the situation before it happens." Chen Ning, who had not spoken swear for a long time, broke the precept.
Dong Yuheng was so amused that this was what his mother, the queen who was in the world, said.
"If you do these things, I will spank you!" He was clearly paving the way for her.
Thirty years in Hedong and forty years in Hexi are true. Emperor Guangde never expected that he would be spanked one day.
But when he saw that Chen Ning was not panicked, he felt relieved.
"Let's go." Chen Ning pulled him up.
"What to do?"
"Let Wuchen see a doctor!"
"I just announced him in the day."
Chen Ning glared at him again, "Look at it again!"
“…”
***
Somewhat unexpected to the emperor, Chen Ning showed twelve strength in this matter. Not only did she not cry, but she only thought that ordinary diseases were supervising Dong Yuheng's medication and rest. Even if he occasionally became ill, she could handle everything without panic.
Dong Yuheng was originally a strong will. Although his life was at stake, he never showed any weakness.
Perhaps it was discovered early, and the ordinary medicines matched by Wuchen and Zhang Deshun played a role. Until the end of the year, Dong Yuheng also acted like ordinary people. Therefore, the two of them were as usual, but the joy of the boudoir, which was originally a taboo, was strictly planned by Chen Ning. Within half a month, at most three times. Dong Yuheng was very dissatisfied with this.
Dong Mingyi and Dong Mingsheng both returned to Changyang by orders. Chen Ning only met Dong Mingyi in a normal manner. Seeing that his expression was as usual, she felt relieved. She met Dong Mingsheng alone. At this time, Dong Mingsheng no longer had a trace of youthfulness. His face was still handsome, but he seemed very steady and peaceful. Chen Ning often communicated with him, and was quite pleased to see the real person like this.
"Do you want to go back to Changyang?"
Dong Mingsheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I really want to come back and be filial to my father and mother."
"But you are also a little reluctant to let Aldo?"
"This... is." Dong Mingsheng nodded.
Chen Ning smiled, "I can't help but my mother. If you want to do anything, just do it. My mother also thinks Aldo is more suitable for you." If Dong Mingyi ascended the throne, he would always be suspicious in Changyang, and he would be free and easy when he is outside the Great Wall.
"Thank you, my mother."
"By the way, your princess, the queen will not help you choose. You will choose which one you like, but I hope you only have one princess and no other concubines, okay?" Chen Ning only asked Dong Mingsheng for this, and she really treated him as her child. Concubine Yun chose the official concubine and concubine for the third prince a while ago, and she didn't say anything about it.
"I just listen to my mother's queen, but my mother is too lazy to choose a daughter-in-law for me?" Dong Mingsheng laughed when he heard such intimate words for me for me.
