Half an hour ago.
A carriage with a canopy covered with snow stopped at the gate of the city.
Shangguan Qing lifted the curtain and stuck his head out.
He looked at the towering towers and asked in surprise, "Is the front... is the capital?"
"Yeah." Xiao Heng nodded, opened the curtain a bit, looked at the endless crowd, and said, "There are many people entering and leaving the capital in the twelfth lunar month, and it is not so crowded on weekdays."
"It's not bad." Shangguan Qing said.
Zhao State is a lower state, although it is not as rich as Yan State, but the rule of law is stable, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there are many praises for the court and the emperor.
You must know that the monarch of the State of Yan is a tyrant, and the people's remarks about him are mostly negative.
It's just that he has great means, and no one dares to resist under the tyranny.
Xiao Heng smiled, Zhao Kingdom is not strong enough now, but he believes that one day, Zhao Kingdom will definitely be able to rank in Shang Kingdom.
That requires the efforts of many people, maybe even several generations, but as long as you don't give up, there must be hope.
"Do you want to take a break?" Xiao Heng asked Shangguan Qing.
When Xiao Heng and Gu Jiao traveled from Zhao State to Yan State, they took the land route, with many checkpoints and detours, and because they did not have the privileges of the royal family, many official roads could not be taken, which greatly delayed the process and took nearly two months. It took a long time to reach Shengdu.
And this time back, they used the identity of the eldest grandson of the emperor, took the official road for grain and grass dedicated to the court, and changed the waterway in the second half.
Luckily for them, the water began to freeze when they got ashore.
From the beginning of November to the beginning of the twelfth year, it took a whole month.
"No, I'm not tired." Shangguan Qing said.
Not tired is fake, Xiao Heng is tired, not to mention he has a sick number
But the two brothers knew very well that Shangguan Qing's time was short, and it was a miracle that he could survive until now. Every step of his step was on the roof of the Hall of Kings of Hell, and he didn't know when he would fall.
The carriage entered the city.
Although Shangguan Qing was exhausted, he still did not miss the opportunity to appreciate the capital carefully.
"There are so many people selling candied haws." He marveled.
There are very few in Yan.
It's hard to see a candied fruit vendor on a street, but there are actually quite a few shops here that make a special trip to sell candied fruit.
Xiao Heng asked the driver to park the carriage in front of a candied fruit shop and bought a bunch of each flavor.
"Give."
He handed a large handful of candied haws to Shangguan Qing.
"Candied haws came from Zhao State." Shangguan Qing picked a bunch of big red ones, "Yan State didn't have it before."
So you love to eat candied haws because you miss your hometown
Xiao Heng watched him eat silently.
Shangguan Qing actually didn't have much appetite, so he played with it a few times.
"Or..." He paused, then said, "Wait later?"
"What's wrong?" Xiao Heng asked.
Shangguan Qing looked at the candied gourd in his hand and hesitated: "I... what... "
Xiao Heng asked amusingly, "Are you nervous?"
"No!" Shangguan Qing flatly denied.
Xiao Heng said with a smile: "Don't worry, mother will be very happy to see you."
Shangguan Qing whispered: "I'm not um, I won't um."
The last two words of each of his sentences were ambiguous, and Xiao Heng could only hear a tune, but Xiao Heng, relying on the telepathy between him and his brother, still tasted those four words.
- I'm not a champion, I can't study.
When such a arrogant and arrogant brother was so unconfident, it really fulfilled that sentence. When you care too much about a person's opinion, you will become worried about gains and losses.
Xiao Heng smiled slightly and said, "Mother will like you."
Shangguan Qing pouted: "Look at your appearance, you can know what kind of son she likes."
Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows: "Is this why you secretly memorize poems?"
Shangguan Qing's body was shocked, and he said, "Where can I recite poems!"
Xiao Heng laughed.
They were really brothers, one carried his daughter-in-law to exercise to enhance his physical strength, and the other secretly recited poems and famous sentences.
The stupid son always wanted to see his mother, and as the sun approached, the carriage arrived at Suzaku Street.
Shangguan Qing hesitated to get out of the car.
Finally got out of the car and stood in the alley against the wall, refusing to pass.
Xiao Heng was dumbfounded.
Don't you have thick skin? Why are you more shy than me when it comes to meeting my mother
The two brothers stood in the alley diagonally opposite for a long time, Xiao Heng saw Xiao Jingkong leave, and Shangguan Qingcai followed Xiao Heng slowly.
That's how the snowflakes on their shoulders came.
At first, Princess Xinyang didn't realize who the brother was calling, but when Shangguan Qing, who was wearing a white crescent cloak, grabbed a bunch of candied haws and crossed the threshold, Princess Xinyang's footsteps suddenly stopped!
The wind all around seemed to stop suddenly, snowflakes fell in large swaths, and the whole yard was extremely quiet.
Her eyes fell on the handsome face that was somewhat similar to Xiao Heng, her breathing was stagnant, and her heartbeat missed a beat!
A brother, does not prove anything.
Xiao Heng is not without a brother.
but.
Her heart suddenly ached.
It hurts, it hurts!
Why does her heart hurt so much when she looks at this person
The eye sockets were uncontrollably hot, and the throat was sore.
"Mother, brother is back." Xiao Heng said.
Then the next second, he also stopped.
His eyes slipped from Princess Xinyang's beautiful face to her bulging belly.
and many more.
He's only been gone for nine months, what's going on here
Shangguan Qing was so nervous that he was stunned for a long time, his brain was buzzing, and he couldn't think at all.
Xiao Heng guessed right, Shangguan Qing was definitely more nervous than Xiao Heng when it came to seeing his mother.
All his shameless face over the years was now used on Princess Xinyang.
Okay, what should I do if I'm so shy
Shangguan Qinghou realized that he was still holding a candied haws in his hand.
I blame myself for being so nervous that I forgot to put such a childish thing back on the carriage.
How can this be done
His mature and cold image!
Yu Jin was also too excited. Who is this "brother" brought back by the little Marquis? Judging from his age, he is about the same as Mr. Hou, shouldn't he be—
No, no, no
Isn't Young Master Xiao Qing already dead
"Princess, princess..." She looked at Princess Xinyang under the corridor in disbelief.
Princess Xinyang was out of breath at the moment. Pregnancy had changed her body. Under the action of hormones, tears came, and she was not at all like the arrogant and cold woman she used to be.
Xiao Heng took his stunned brother to the front of Princess Xinyang, and said softly to Princess Xinyang, "Mother, let's go into the room and talk."
…
The mother and son entered the house.
Yu Jin was also waiting by the side.
Xiao Heng sat in the middle, and Princess Xinyang and Shangguan Qing faced each other.
Princess Xinyang looked at the child, her hot tears couldn't stop.
Shangguan Qing was not sad at first, but when he saw her weeping, he suddenly felt distressed.
The mood swings of the two were too great, and what happened can only be told by Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng starts with the identity of Shangguan Yan.
The female slave of the Yan Kingdom was actually the crown princess of the Yan Kingdom. She was framed and sold into the underground martial arts field, and was rescued by the Marquis of Xuanping.
Princess Xinyang knows what happened next.
What Princess Xinxinyang didn't know was that the Princess Yan didn't kill Shangguanqing, she just hid him, and when she left, she took Shangguanqing away secretly.
Shangguan Qing was poisoned.
Chen Guo's medical skills are excellent.
She first went to Chen Guo to ask for medicine, but Chen Guo's doctor saved Shangguanqing's life a little, but unfortunately the effect was very small. In order to keep Shangguan Qing alive, she had to take Shangguan Qing back to Longtan Tiger's Den in Shengdu.
After that, there was a series of upheavals in the Xuanyuan family.
Shangguan Yan was deposed from the position of princess, but the monarch was very fond of Shangguan Qing, so he still retained the honor of the eldest grandson of the emperor, and asked the National Teacher Hall to continue to provide him with treatment.
However, as Shangguan Qing grew up slowly, his facial features gradually developed, and he became less and less like Shangguan Yan.
Many people began to criticize Shangguan Yan, making a fuss about Shangguan Qing's identity, and accusing her of confusing the royal blood.
In desperation, Shangguan Yan had to send someone to secretly come to Zhao Kingdom to draw a portrait of Xiao Heng secretly, so that Shangguan Qing could transform into Xiao Heng.
And it was this move that exposed Xiao Heng's existence to the prince's party.
In order to save Xinyang's flesh and blood, Shangguan Yan exposed his own flesh and blood.
It was hateful for Shangguan Yan to take away the antidote belonging to Shangguan Qing.
But her heart to make up for it with the rest of her life is not fake.
All these years she treated Shangguan Qing as her own, not all for making up for it, the mother-son relationship between them really existed.
Of course, Xiao Heng did not add his own opinions when he told the story, but just stated all the facts objectively.
No one can forgive Shangguan Yan for Princess Xinyang, and no one can bear the "pain of bereavement" for her over the years.
Whether it is hate, forgiveness, or something else, Princess Xinyang should have her own opinion.
Shangguanqing looked nervously at Princess Xinyang, as if waiting for her sentence.
When Princess Xinyang heard this, her emotions calmed down.
She looked at Shangguan Qing and said bitterly, "Actually, even if she hadn't 'snatched' the antidote, you wouldn't have survived. The late emperor was guarding your father. My marriage to him was just a political bargaining chip. The Shadow Guard is waiting to kill him at any time, and to prevent me from softening my heart because of the heir, the Dragon Shadow Guard... will kill me and his children. If they fail once, they will come a second time, until... I lose you completely."
"I have also hurt A-Heng deeply, both of you are innocent. I really want to blame, the first is to blame my father, the second is to blame me for being born in the royal family, and finally, it is my mother-in-law... You were not protected."
Not you, but you.
She is full of deep guilt for both sons.
After she learned the false truth that "Shangguan Yan was her enemy after murdering her son", didn't she also vent her anger on the innocent Xiao Heng
What qualifications does she have to blame Shangguan Yan
Xiao Heng gently held her hand.
The matter of Xiaohou Ye's death in the fire on New Year's Eve has already passed.
His heart was opened.
He is not a child abandoned by his mother.
At the last moment, his mother protected him with her life.
Princess Xinyang choked and smiled: "I'm very grateful that she raised you. If it wasn't for her, I might have lost you."
Shangguanqing felt a lot more relaxed, he smiled and said, "Mother also said, I am very grateful that you brought up your brother, because if the real grandson of the emperor returned to Yan Kingdom, it would be difficult for him to grow up safely. "
Fate is a very magical thing, but do good deeds, don't ask about your future.
"Master Mother?" Princess Xinyang was slightly taken aback.
Shangguan Qing rubbed his nose embarrassingly: "That is my mother."
Princess Xinyang tasted this title, and could feel that the mother-son relationship between Shangguanyan and Qinger was very harmonious and natural.
Xiao Heng said: "Since this is the case, let's not mention the past."
Princess Xinyang nodded.
Shangguan Qing had no objection.
Princess Xinyang looked at her lost and found son, she couldn't believe it was true: "A-Heng, pinch me."
Xiao Heng said amusingly, "Why don't you pinch me?"
Where am I willing to make you hurt
Then Princess Xinyang really went to pinch.
Xiao Heng made an emoji in pain.
Mother, you have changed, you have never been able to do this before.
I really fell out of favor...
Princess Xinyang embarrassedly rubbed her son's pinched red leg.
Qing'er came back, it was incredible, she was immersed in great joy, and she was indeed at a loss.
Shangguan Qing stared at him dumbfounded, and felt that Princess Xinyang didn't seem to be that difficult to get close to.
He was worried that he would be disliked.
I think too much.
This girl is also very down-to-earth.
"But mother, what's the situation with you?" Xiao Heng looked at her stomach that was about to hit the table, "My father's?"
At the mention of this, Princess Xinyang gets angry.
Obviously, I drank all the soup!
Why are you still pregnant
The damn thing is that it took her three months to react!
I would have known that I drank a few more bowls of Bizi soup!
I don't know if he felt his mother's dislike, the little guy in his stomach turned over aggrievedly, kicked a few times by the way, and kicked his own small footprints on his mother's belly.
Princess Xinyang covered her stomach and gasped.
This kid is so noisy.
Qing'er can rest in her stomach.
Xiao Heng nodded solemnly: "It seems to be my father's."
Besides my father, I can't think of any other man who can make you grit your teeth so much.
The little baby stretches out the little jio jio: Come on, give a prize (palm)~
