Du Zihuan looked at the plaque in front of the Qingxin Hall with complicated eyes. As a courtier, he could still face Nan Ruiyuan calmly, but in private, Du Zihuan himself did not know how to face Nan Ruiyuan.
Xiao Xiangzi informed Xiao Lizi who was guarding at the entrance of Qingxin Hall, and then Xiao Lizi went in and told Nan Ruiyuan that Du Zihuan had arrived.
In fact, Nan Ruiyuan had mixed emotions towards Du Zihuan in his heart. As a courtier, Du Zihuan is undoubtedly excellent. Du Zihuan has been accompanying Nan Ruiyuan until now, and his contribution to Da Yu is also visible.
But in private, Nan Ruiyuan envy Du Zihuan, envy them living in the same mansion, and envy Duan Rou with a smile from the corner of her eyes.
Duan Rou doesn't love herself, he knows in his heart that he doesn't know what kind of existence she is in Duan Rou's heart. He also understands that Duan Rou doesn't love Du Zihuan either, but Duan Rou has always been gentle to Du Zihuan, like a brother.
Nan Ruiyuan made Duan Rou Ji Jie, maybe he was right, but now he hates him, he blames his own incompetence, he questioned why he couldn't protect her, and regretted handing Duan Rou over to Ji Jie.
Is this fate? In fact, Nan Ruiyuan has come to this position step by step. He has long disbelieved in fate. He felt that there is no so-called fate in the world, and everything is nothing more than a test, punishment or compensation.
He asked Xiao Lizi to bring Du Zihuan in, and then sent the palace servants to sit quietly on the couch.
Du Zihuan came in and saw Nan Ruiyuan exuding sadness, not only back pain, but even a gray color that he couldn't see clearly.
Du Zihuan bowed to Nan Ruiyuan and stood quietly.
The atmosphere at this time was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly, but no one broke the quiet atmosphere.
Finally, Du Zihuan said, "What's the matter with the emperor sending someone to call his ministers?"
Nan Ruiyuan heard Du Zihuan speak, but the admiration for him was no longer in his tone, but there was a touch of alienation and almost indistinguishable resentment.
He sighed and said, "I called her daughter over, you haven't seen it before." Nan Ruiyuan didn't call himself "Zhen", at this moment he really imagined facing Du Zihuan like he did before.
Du Zihuan froze in place after hearing Nan Ruiyuan's words.
Is her daughter, in the courtroom today, she didn't say a word to her daughter, would she blame herself
Nan Ruiyuan looked at Du Zihuan and understood what he was thinking, "She won't blame you, to her, you are like a brother, you have been with her for a long time, sometimes I don't envy you. And you."
Du Zihuan listened, lowered his head, and there seemed to be steam in his eyes, but then he let out a long sigh, "Reproach me."
"Don't blame you, blame me. I know that you have been blaming me all these years. Why don't I hate myself? I know that for this position, I fulfilled her and Ji Jie, and you have always blamed me. Now When she passed away, you also blamed me in your heart! Blaming me is useless, you couldn't protect her well!" Nan Ruiyuan's hoarse voice trembled a little, like a wounded beast that made people feel distressed.
Du Zihuan clenched the fist in his hand, and his face also showed a sad look: "Nan Ruiyuan, I have determined to serve as an official since I was a child, and the purpose is to assist the future emperor of prosperity. Indeed, as a person in power, I respect you and will do my best. I can help you. But as a man, it's a lie for me to say I don't hate you, you really disappoint me."
Du Zihuan's voice also became hoarse, roaring like a roaring little beast. He didn't care whether the man sitting in front of him was the emperor or the person he once wanted to chase after. Now he only thinks that this man has failed. his expectations.
"You can obviously protect her well! She died because of you! Why do you have to act sad here?" Du Zihuan sneered at Nan Ruiyuan coldly, his eyes sharp as if he was about to delay him.
"Only Yueqin is left now. Since you dragged her into this deep palace, you must take care of her and don't let your queen cause the same damage as in the past. If you can't do it, I will be in the Du residence. It can't give her glory and wealth, but it can protect her peace for the rest of her life."
Nan Ruiyuan was also angry and shouted at Du Zihuan: "This big Yu is all mine, why can't I protect her comprehensively!"
Du Zihuan looked at his rage, the smile became even colder, and the sarcasm in his expression became more intense: "Then why can't you protect Duan Rou?"
Nan Ruiyuan was at a loss for words for a while, and his whole person was like a defeated cock, discouraged.
The atmosphere was a little embarrassing. The two of them stopped making a sound, and no one reported anything. Only Ji Yueqin walked in and said softly, "Yueqin pays respects to the emperor and your lord."
On the way, Ji Yueqin learned that when the emperor summoned her, he also summoned the head of the Hanlin Academy, so she saluted Yingying when she came in.
I saw Ji Yueqin put on a boy's bun, with a gilt pomegranate jade butterfly hairpin casually inserted on her head, wearing a crescent-white cloud pattern beaded plum blossom skirt, and a light blue splendid cloak on her shoulders. It's so dusty.
Nan Ruiyuan and Du Zihuan both seemed to have seen Duan Rou back then, that quiet and quiet woman, and couldn't help being stunned.
Du Zihuan reacted first, looked at Ji Yueqin with a smile and pampered and said, "My minister Du Zihuan, I have seen Princess Anning."
After listening to Du Zihuan's words, Nan Ruiyuan only reacted and greeted Ji Yueqin with a smile, and let Du Zihuan sit down.
Ji Yueqin walked up to Nan Ruiyuan and said, "Yueqin would like to thank the emperor's uncle for saving Yueqin." After saying that, she was about to salute, but she was grabbed.
"It doesn't matter, her daughter is my daughter. Uncle the emperor will take good care of you in the future." Nan Ruiyuan's eyes were doting, as if he wanted to pin the feelings on Duan Rou on Ji Yueqin.
Ji Yueqin took out the jade pendant with the character "Southern" and handed it to Nan Ruiyuan. He looked at the jade pendant with a layer of water vapor on his eyes, and said with a choked voice, "I didn't expect your mother to be... . This jade pendant is also left."
"Yueqin is disrespectful, Yueqin heard what the emperor's uncle and Mr. Du said just now." Ji Yueqin looked at Nan Ruiyuan with bright eyes, then turned to look at Du Zihuan.
"My mother never resented everyone, my mother lived very happily. My mother said that Dayu was her hometown. She remembered the kindness of the emperor's uncle and Mr. Du to her, but my mother... ... Harmed by traitors." Ji Yueqin couldn't speak, and tears welled up in her eyes.
In fact, Duan Rou didn't mention Nan Ruiyuan, but Du Zihuan, Duan Rou once told her that Da Yu had a brother-like person who treated her very well.
She didn't know her mother's past, she only knew that her mother and father lived happily together. But after listening to Du Zihuan and Nan Ruiyuan's quarrel, she understood the deep affection they had for her mother.
Du Zihuan and Nan Ruiyuan are also very good to her, and she doesn't want to see their monarchs and ministers divorced. More than that, she hopes that they can get back together and stop indulging in the past.
The two middle-aged men also sighed, saying that the sky was unfair, leaving the little girl alone in the world. He felt a little more love for Ji Yueqin, and at the same time put his feelings for Duan Rou on her.
Du Zihuan turned to Ji Yueqin and said excitedly, "Does Rouer often mention me?"
Ji Yueqin nodded, shook her head and said, "Forget it, every time I ask my mother about my life here in my hometown, my mother always mentions you."
Du Zihuan was a little lost, but Rouer had never forgotten him, and it was a matter of his mind, at least it was enough that Rouer had her own figure in her heart.
Nan Ruiyuan hurriedly asked Ji Yueqin, "Has your mother mentioned me before?"
His expression was like that of a child, with anticipation and a hint of panic.
Ji Yueqin couldn't bear it, but in fact he never mentioned this emperor of Dayu, but seeing his injured appearance, he had to say to him: "Mother said, the emperor is very good, he is a wise man."
Nan Ruiyuan was a little moved, as long as she remembered him, it was enough.
Du Zihuan and Nan Ruiyuan looked at Ji Yueqin with bright eyes, and Ji Yueqin was also embarrassed by the burning feeling of doting in their eyes. Remembering that Ji Yueqin had not had breakfast, they hurriedly called Andrew to prepare Breakfast.
Here, Du Zihuan and Nan Ruiyuan dragged Ji Yueqin to ask for warmth, and also inquired about Duan Rou's life in Daliang. When they heard that Duan Rou was living happily in Daliang, the unwillingness and resentment in their hearts seemed to go away with the wind.
The grievance between the two may not be resolved so quickly, but at least they no longer complain about each other. They can only sigh that heaven is impermanent. At the same time, it is necessary for Da Liang to give a statement, otherwise Da Yu will not give up.
Ji Yueqin was moved, if her mother knew that there were people who still remembered her like this, she would definitely be very happy.
Back then, I met Shenyuan Yu, Haitangxia and Zeng Ge Jinlui.
After the song, flowers are like rain.
There are countless red dots on the Cui Luo shirt.
This year, I am looking for a place to join hands again. The empty things are people, not the evening of spring.
Looking back at Qingmen Road.
Chaotic red and flying catkins, chasing the east wind.
When the beautiful woman passed away, nothing was left, and it only added a little sadness to the living. The two felt sad in their hearts, and when they saw Ji Yueqin crying with swollen eyes, they stopped mentioning Duan Rou.
Ji Yueqin also gradually stopped her tears, and the two of them stopped talking about Duan Rou, and tried to say something happy to make Ji Yueqin laugh.
During their conversation, Ji Yueqin also burst into laughter, and at this time Andrew also brought over the breakfast. Nan Ruiyuan and Du Zihuan looked at the thin Ji Yueqin, and they didn't know how Ji Yueqin came here during this time, but they felt that Ji Yueqin should be well protected in their hearts.
Here, the news that Ji Yueqin was named Anning County Lord finally spread throughout the harem. In the Fengxi Palace, the porcelain was broken once again, and each palace was also pregnant with ghosts.
Ji Yueqin's life in Dayu has just begun...
