Luo Qingyan turned to look at Yun Shang with a smile in his eyes. "When I was in the State of Ning, I was obsessed with the throne. But when I really got it, I found that the position was not as good as I thought. On the throne, one couldn't do whatever he wanted to do or protect the one he wanted to protect. Every time he did something, he had to think too much. He had to consider the expectations of the people, as well as the opinions of the officials. Maybe living a simple life with family is much better. In spring, you can climb mountains and appreciate flowers, in summer, you can swim by the river, in autumn, you can enjoy the wind and the moon, and in winter, you can listen to the snow by a furnace. "
Yun Shang listened quietly. When she heard his words, she couldn't help but burst into laughter, which seemed to be uncontrollable. Her voice became louder and louder, and even bent down.
Luo Qingyan's eyes were full of helplessness. He looked at Yun Shang and said with a smile, "Shang'er, what's wrong with you? I don't think anything I said just now can make you laugh like this. "
Yun Shang waved her hand. After a long time, she straightened up, covered her mouth with her hand and chuckled. Her voice trembled with laughter. "It's not because of what your majesty said, but because I suddenly thought of that scene when you were talking."
Yun Shang said with a smile.
Luo Qingyan was confused. He scratched his head and asked, "What did you think of?"
Yun Shang laughed so hard that tears came out from the corners of her eyes. She coughed a few times to calm down. After a while, she said, "Your Majesty, when you dealt with government affairs, when you went to the court, when you commanded thousands of troops and horses on the battlefield, it was really hard to imagine that your majesty would climb the mountain in spring, appreciate flowers, and then recite a few poems, and play water by the stream in summer. I don't think such romantic things fit your majesty. "
As Yun Shang spoke, she smiled again. She walked up to Luo Qingyan, but her smile disappeared. It was not that she was joking. In her mind, Luo Qingyan had always been fighting for power. She didn't even know what Luo Qingyan could do after leaving the center of the political power struggle.
Yun Shang's steps were still too small. Luo Qingyan quickly caught up with her. He turned to look at Yun Shang and changed the topic, "I'm going to see Xia Houjing tomorrow. Do you want to go with me?"
"Yes." Yun Shang blinked her eyes and smiled, "Xia Houjing has tortured us for so many years. How can I not go? Anyway, we have to greet our old friend."
Luo Qingyan nodded gently and held Yun Shang's hand. The two walked slowly towards Weiyang Palace. After a moment of silence, Yun Shang said softly, "You always said that you would always be with me. Now it's my turn to say that. No matter you are the emperor or not, I will always be with you."
Luo Qingya
d Luo Qingyan, and laughed ironically, "Why are you running? Are you afraid of me? Why are you afraid of me? I'm just a beast in the cage now. No matter how powerful I am, I can only roar and pretend to be powerful. What are you afraid of? Huh... "
Luo Qingyan looked at Xia Houjing indifferently and smiled, "Do you think it's worth it?"
"Is it worth it?" Hearing this, Xia Houjing suddenly turned to Luo Qingyan and laughed, "You ask me if it's worth it? Have you ever thought about it? These are mine. The throne should be mine. I got rid of the crown prince. I was supposed to be the next crown prince. But all of a sudden, you popped out and wanted to compete with me. I lost. I lost. But why do you ask me if it's worth it? "
There was a hint of pity in Luo Qingyan's eyes. "You are wrong. Even if it's not me, you are not qualified to be the emperor."
Xia Houjing turned to look at Luo Qingyan with a hint of madness in his eyes. "Not me? Oh, yes, it can't be me, because I have an elder brother, a brother of the same father and mother! He is more virtuous, talented and capable than me, more merciful and better than me! I'm just a chess piece from beginning to end. Yes, a chess piece. Cao Wenxi gave birth to me, but put me beside her enemy and made me regard the enemy as my father. In order to use me against Cao Wenxii, Xia Huanyu killed Lady Liu in front of me. Why did I become like this? Huh... "
Before Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan could speak, Xia Houjing murmured to himself, "Yes, it's because of me. I'm not satisfied. I always want to go a little higher and get that position. Then I can get what I want and do what I want. But who could be satisfied? Are you satisfied? If you are satisfied, you won't leave the State of Ning, try every means to come to the State of Xia and compete with me. "
Xia Houjing grabbed the iron railing and looked at Yun Shang and Luo Qingyan. "Are you here to laugh at me today? You come to see me end up like this? "
