Chapter 318 Incident
The queen expressed her worrying expression, but her tone was a little worried, "Does the emperor really bear to let them kill each other?"
"I only care about the stability of this country. As for whom I have to be in charge, as long as I have been prosperous for thousands of years, I will not hesitate to a son." Gao Jin seemed a little cold, but he hoped that while the situation deteriorated, the queen could make the best and worst plans, and of course he would do everything possible to protect the overall situation.
The queen looked thoughtless and said nothing. Gao Jin's words had come to an end. I believe that if she persuaded him again, it would only cause him to get bored. Instead of wasting unnecessary talk here, she was still thinking about how to avoid the situation from deteriorating.
After Gao Yuanshang learned that Gao Yuanyi's war horses from outside the Great Wall had entered the military camp, he had to use tricks and specially sent people to attack the war horses secretly, but he did not want to kill them, but just used some small means.
When Gao Yuanshang was worried and added troops without authorization, he was extremely nervous. Except for the morning court every day, he was basically busy in the military camp, afraid that something would go wrong, which would be to destroy himself into the abyss that would never be restored.
Song Anle had not seen Gao Yuanshang for a while. She guessed that she was also busy with the affairs of the government, so she did not bother him.
As the New Year approaches, the queen has been ill and has no intention of asking about the New Year. Although Song Anle has done her best, she still has no idea how to start with everything she is unfamiliar with.
In order to find out the current situation from the queen, Song Anle went to visit the queen with the matters of the New Year, so she walked to Changxing Palace on foot under the thick snow.
The queen still had a kind face, but her hair was mixed with obvious silver hair, which made her already vicissitudes look even more loving.
While helping the queen add tea, Song Anle said gently: "I haven't seen my mother for many days, how can my mother be better?"
"It's still the same, the key is that time is not forgiving people." The queen looked a little emotional, but her face still had a calm smile.
"It's cold right now, so it's better for my mother to walk less."
The queen leaned on the soft couch and said calmly: "I am afraid that one day I can't walk anymore, so I want to walk more while I can still move."
Song Anle didn't know if she was too sensitive or the queen's words were in other ways, but before she was indecisive, she followed the queen's words, so she said lightly: "Walking more is good for health, but you should also pay attention to your health. If you fall down when you are tired, this huge harem may be in chaos."
"Since ancient times, the younger generation is better than the younger generation. There is no reason why flowers bloom more and more and more."
"After that being said, it depends on what kind of flower it is," Song Anle said meaningfully: "Some flowers bloom, no matter how beautiful they are, they may not be appreciated. However, some flowers bloom simple and elegantly, but there are always people who consistently see her. In fact, the women in the harem are not like this."
Song Anle also personally experienced that those who are determined and useless to gain the so-called reputation, betray friends and disdain to turn against their relatives, but in the end they may not be able to get what they want. Even if they do, they will only leave a lonely reputation for accompanying them for life after losing everything. What's the point of that?
Instead, she was glad that she had never fought or robbed. Although she suffered a lot of sadness, she had lost and hated her, these unforgettable experiences were her growth steps.
The queen pursed her lips lightly. In fact, she knew that Song Anle's purpose was not really for the New Year. Now people are in panic and are afraid that there will be changes in the government, so no one is willing to arrange the New Year.
So the queen had no intention of wasting time, so she said tactfully: "By the way, is the eldest prince okay recently?"
"Everything is fine, but the eldest prince has been busy with the affairs of the government. Now he has not come back for many days. I guess he is really busy." Song Anle revealed Gao Yuanshang's whereabouts to the queen, hoping that she would know that Gao Yuanshang actually attaches great importance to this change.
The queen did not rush to answer Song Anle's words, but thought for a while before saying dimly: "Looking at you being able to stay together, the queen of mother is considered to be free of regrets."
"I am really guilty of asking my mother to work hard, but in the current situation, I am really afraid that my mother will continue to work hard." Song Anle originally hoped that the queen could speak first and shift the topic to the current situation, but although the queen has been a little worried, she has been reluctant to change to this topic for a long time, which made her feel a little uneasy.
"You mean the situation in the court?" The queen seemed to be asking, but she had a clear answer in her heart, but she really wanted to know how Song Anle understood the current situation.
Song Anle finally showed a worried expression. She knew that the queen had followed Gao Jin for many years and spoke in front of Gao Jin, so she stood up and knelt in front of the queen, and said deeply: "Now the eldest prince is in danger, I beg my mother to help him."
"Get up first, let's talk about what's wrong with you." The queen also kindly helped her get up.
Song Anle was just sincere, so she immediately stood up and returned to her seat. However, she still said worriedly: "My mother must also know that the power of King Yong has increased greatly now, and she is making things difficult for the eldest prince everywhere, and even threatening the power of the eldest prince. I don't seek a high reputation, but I hope that the eldest prince can overcome this difficulty."
"My mother knows what you think, but you also know about the affairs of the government. The harem has never been able to interfere in politics, and the mother is afraid that she just can't help her."
"I know that this matter is of great importance, so I came to inquire about the truth from my mother." Song Anle sighed and said, "Now the eldest prince has disappeared for several days, I must have been deliberately avoiding me, but I really want to know how serious the current situation is, is there really no room for recovery?"
Song Anle deliberately took the matter too seriously, and also hoped to test the queen's attitude, so that at least the queen could think that she really didn't understand the inside story.
"Actually, it's not as serious as you thought. It's just that the power of King Yong suddenly increased sharply, and it is inevitable that someone would provoke trouble from it. However, King Yong's ultimate goal should be better than his mother." The queen believed that Song Anle could not know anything about Gao Yuanyi's purpose, so she had to hint to let her know and test her attitude from it.
The sorrow on Song Anle's face was obviously a little deeper. She had known about this before, and she could not have concealed the queen for too long, but she did not expect that the queen had already learned about it and was very clear about the inside story.
"I am very grateful for the true feelings of King Yong, but I have already told King Yong very clearly and expressed it very firmly. No matter what the final result is, I and him will never have a future." Song Anle said very resolutely and firmly. She did not want to be the culprit in the eyes of the queen, and she hoped that the queen could recognize her firmness.
The queen has experienced too much. Although Song Anle is smart and kind, she still has too shallow experience. She thinks things too simply because she is very simple in nature. Unfortunately, the change of facts is difficult to develop according to her simple ideas.
So the queen said meaningfully: "Don't say anything so resolutely. You can be not afraid of life and death, but if you are allowed to watch your beloved die, you may not be so determined."
Song Anle's heart was inexplicably tightened, and even looked at the queen with a look of surprise. She felt a little confused about her meaning, but she was so timid that she dared not analyze it.
"I will tell you a story." The queen spoke slowly again. In fact, the story she told was not a real story, but all the experiences of Song Anle's mother and her father. But the most important thing was that her mother was willing to tie herself up in the cold palace because she ensured her father's survival and death, and even separated from the world with her lover in regret.
After Song Anle came back from the Queen, she was always worried and could not bear the mental worry. She did not speculate on the protagonist in the Queen's story, but was always entangled in her mother's choice.
She didn't know what choice she would have made if the mistress in that story was her, but she would rather die by herself than use her love to exchange for the pain of her beloved person.
Instead of torturing each other in pain, she would rather die with him, at least as a completely different pair of people, because the queen did not tell her that her mother had already had her and Song Cheng at that time.
Song Anle was still immersed in her unexciting thoughts, and suddenly Mei Xin ran in in a hurry, perhaps disturbing Song Anle's thoughts, so she paused at the entrance of the hall.
Seeing her look panicked, Song Anle suddenly felt uneasy, because Mei Xin had never had such panic before, but she still restrained her impetuousness and asked lightly: "What's the matter, why are you so panicked?"
Mei Xinshen walked in with her eyebrows locked and looked embarrassed. She was worried that Song Anle would suffer a blow after knowing the truth, so she still seemed a little hesitant.
"What's wrong?" Seeing her hesitating, Song Anle said more anxiously: "Is something wrong?"
"Yes... it's the eldest prince..." Mei Xin still hesitated and didn't know how to speak.
Song Anle no longer had to listen. She got up and rushed out of the hall. Mei Xin hurriedly grabbed her, "Imperial concubine, you can't go."
"Let me go." Song Anle was buried by worry and fear. She just wanted to see Gao Yuanshang at this moment, otherwise she would be afraid that she would miss her life.
Mei Xin knelt at Song Anle's feet. She hugged Song Anle's legs and said anxiously: "Emperor, the eldest prince is just banned in the cold palace. Please calm down first."
