Chapter 288 Three Lifetimes of Luck Xue Lin looked at Mingyi and tightened her hand. Her elegant eyelashes trembled slightly, and he pulled her to the dragon bed and knelt beside him. "Rong Yu, I... I can't help you! I am also ashamed of the soldiers and people of Anxi. I am not a good emperor..." Emperor Chongning slightly stretched his head, but within a moment, he fell back to the pillow, with a blur in the corner of his eye. A tear trickled down. "Prince! Ah Xuan..." he shouted softly. "Father, my son is here!" Fu Ruixuan had been kneeling beside the couch. Hearing Emperor Chongning call him, he hurriedly took two steps forward, approached the pillow, and responded in a dumb voice. "In the future, you must atone for my sins and be kind to the people of Anxi and the soldiers of the Anxi army." Emperor Chongning's voice gradually became lower and lower, but he tried hard to hold his head up, looked at Fu Ruixuan, and said cautiously. "Father, I agree." Fu Ruixuan seemed to have become much calmer overnight, and he should be extra cautious. "There is also Governor Xue. He is the humerus of the country. I want you to swear that you will rely on him and trust him. You will not doubt him or hurt him..." Emperor Chongning was holding on extremely hard, and his hands on the edge of the bed were shaking. Shivering and looking like he was about to fall down again, Waiter Xu hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him and let him lean on her. Emperor Chongning still stared at Fu Ruixuan with tearful eyes, asking for a promise, "You must watch and help each other with Governor Xue to protect the Zhou Dynasty and the people..." Mingyi frowned slightly and opened her mouth to say something, but Xue Lin held her hand tightly. She looked back and saw that he shook his head slightly and imperceptibly towards her. Mingyi's heart moved slightly. In the end, he didn't speak again. As Emperor Chongning wished, Fu Ruixuan raised one hand to his eyebrows as if to swear, and said in a cautious tone, "I swear, I will treat Governor Xue as my brother and sister, trust him, rely on him, and never doubt him." He, hurt him, if I violate this oath, the gods will kill me, and I will not be able to conquer the country!" This is a very heavy oath, not to mention that this oath was made by Fu Ruixuan. Once Emperor Chongning dies, he will be the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Mingyi's heart moved slightly, and Xue Lin clasped his fists tightly and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, your majesty! I will always remember your kindness of knowing me and your trust in me over the years. I can also swear an oath in front of your majesty. As long as your highness, the prince, If you don't let me down or the Anxi army, I will never let you down the prince, let alone the Zhou Dynasty or the people!"
"Okay!" Emperor Chongning gave a heavy voice, took a breath again, coughed, and finally recovered, his breath became weaker, "I know you keep your promise, not to mention, there is this girl by your side, ah , I feel at ease!" When he said this, he glanced at Mingyi, and there seemed to be an unspeakable meaning in his words. Mingyi raised her eyes in surprise, and happened to catch Emperor Chongning looking into her eyes, calm, kind, and with a little smile, just like when he looked at Li Fengjiao before, as if he had seen through everything, Mingyi My heart clenched, feeling indescribably warm and astringent. At this moment, whether I could call out "uncle" in my heart didn't seem that important anymore. "You can't stay away from Anxi for too long. I give you permission to leave the capital after my first seven days. This time, take Yun'an and your father-in-law and mother-in-law with you!" Emperor Chongning said softly, motioning to his wife Xu to help him. Lie down next to him. Xue Lin and Mingyi paused for a moment, looked at each other, and both leaned down, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Tears suddenly fell from the corners of Mingyi's eyes as he lowered his head. "Rong Yu, Yun'an... you have to treat her well..." Emperor Chongning suddenly confessed again. Mingyi's eyes were red and wet, and the tears in her eyes finally couldn't hold back and poured down. Xue Lin held her hand tightly and nodded lightly but solemnly to Emperor Chongning, "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will take her to my heart and cherish her as much as my life. No! She is your Majesty. life!" Emperor Chongning nodded, as if pleased, as if relieved, smiled slightly, and gently closed his eyes, "You all should go out first! I'm a little tired! Ah Xuan, invite your mother here, I want to tell her say……" After the Chongning Emperor said this, it was natural that no one else in the palace could stay. Mingyi was helped up by Xue Lin and turned around to go out of the palace. After all, she was worried. When she stepped out of the palace door, she turned around and looked over. She happened to see Fu Ruixuan carefully holding a scroll in front of Emperor Chongning. Unfolding, the lifelike Queen Gu appeared on the paper, smiling at Emperor Chongning and his son. Emperor Chongning also smiled back, with a smile full of joy. It turned out to be someone Mingyi had not seen for a long time. There was no whitewashing, and she was really happy. Joy from within. Yes, he can finally let go of the responsibilities that have locked him up all his life, break free from this cage, be truly free, go see the people he wants to see most, reunite with them, and share his sincere joy. They should also forget their sadness and be happy for him. He is happy. But...looking at Fu Ruixuan beside him, Mingyi's eyes dimmed slightly. Who would have thought that his son would follow the same path as him? Looking back, they had already arrived outside the palace, "What are you thinking about?" Xue Lin asked softly in her ear. Mingyi raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. When she turned around, she happened to see the eldest princess and Li Fengjiao standing not far away. The mother and daughter seemed to be much closer than before when they came back. Perhaps, at the moment of life and death, those people The knot that I once thought would last a lifetime seemed to be insignificant. A figure hesitated and walked in front of the mother and daughter. It was Li Zhi. This time, when Xue Lin judged that something had happened in Wangjing, he came back first, leaving behind Xue Lin who was poisoned and struggling on the edge of life and death. Although it was Xue Lin's request, it was not his own choice. For the sake of the overall situation, he It’s not just for the greater good, either. He sent someone to pick up Li Fengjiao, and then picked up the eldest princess. The former family stood together. Although the atmosphere was a bit subtle, it was a scene that he had never thought of seeing before. Her hands tightened slightly, her eyes flickered, and she looked away to look at Xue Lin, who was staring down at her in front of her, and shook her head slightly, "I was just thinking about this palace city, surrounded by towering walls. , the human heart seems to have become narrower here, it can hold very little, but wants a lot, but if you get it, you may not be happy, but it will make you more lonely. In the final analysis, it is just a gorgeous cage, trapped. The body and mind are not free. If we really want to fly outside and see the vast world outside, who would still want to stay in this cage? " "You don't care about these things because you don't have greed. But everything you want to avoid is probably what others are working hard to get. Everyone has his or her own fate in life, so to speak. After all, it’s just asking for benevolence, so don’t worry too much,” Xue Lin said. After saying that, he saw Mingyi looking at him with an incomprehensible expression. He raised his eyelids, what do you mean? "I just think you are very good. If I hadn't met you and married you, I would never have known that people have another way of living. But, once I get used to that kind of life, I can never go back to the past, let alone It's okay to live as haphazardly as before... Now I feel that my life has not been in vain!" Mingyi slightly raised her lips. Xue Lin raised his hand and touched the top of her head. She was the only one who would abandon the prosperity and beauty of Wangjing and the life of rich food and clothing. And he was not lucky enough to meet her and marry her. she. "After this time, Anxi should be peaceful for several years. By then, I can be free to fulfill my promise and take you to visit the fourteen states of Anxi! Haven't you always wanted to visit Yizhou? Since I left, I’ve never been back, and I don’t know what it’s like now.”
