994. Easy to change but old people's heart 64
The peach tree in front of the side hall of Shoukang Palace was planted by Sima Yi himself in the first year he moved in. In a blink of an eye, the peach tree bloomed and bore fruit, but the leaves withered several times.
Since Princess Jingfu's Hundred Days Banquet, the Queen and the Eighth Prince have almost lost the emperor's heart, especially Sima Hu. When Emperor Changwen locked him up, he didn't say how long he would be locked up. Therefore, there was no time limit, and no one dared to lock him up.
Release it.
Until summer turned to winter, and it was New Year's Eve, Emperor Changwen seemed to have forgotten his son and had no intention of letting him out.
In the palace, without a prince with eyes on his head, everyone would just be happy that the days were brighter. Therefore, except for the queen, basically no one cared whether Sima Hu came out or not.
But the queen couldn't bear it, especially when she saw that Concubine Hui was getting more and more favored, Sima Yi was getting better and better, but Jingyue Palace was getting colder and colder, she went crazy.
As long as, as long as the old witch Queen Mother falls, she can take Sima Yi back. She has an excellent son, but are you afraid that she will not be favored again? Then, who will be that bitch like Concubine Hui?
At the palace banquet on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Queen Mother suddenly vomited blood and fell to the ground convulsing. The imperial doctor diagnosed her as poisoning.
Everyone was horrified. Emperor Changwen was furious and almost destroyed the palace to search for the murderer. However, all clues and evidence pointed to the queen.
Emperor Changwen was so angry that he kicked the queen to the ground with all his heart. He kicked the queen until she was half crippled. He didn't care about the relationship between husband and wife, and ordered someone to imprison her in the punishment department.
In the end, the Queen Mother's life was saved, but she was paralyzed. The fourth prince was so sad that he asked the emperor for permission to stay in Shoukang Palace and take care of his grandmother. The emperor was pleased for a while and everyone praised her.
Because of the four princes, Emperor Changwen thought for a long time and decided not to abolish the queen. Instead, he imprisoned her in the cold palace and was not allowed to come out for life. At the same time, he named Concubine Hui the noble concubine Hui and took charge of the affairs of the six palaces.
As for the eighth prince Sima Hu, he was ignored again until three years later, a letter of repentance written in blood was delivered to Emperor Changwen's desk.
Perhaps it was because he was getting older and people were becoming sentimental, so Emperor Changwen sighed deeply and released Sima Hu from his confinement a few days later.
The Prince's Palace is divided into several attics. The underage princes usually live here until they come of age and leave the palace to build a mansion.
The attic where Sima Hu was located was relatively corner.
At the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, white snow fell from the sky, falling on the bare branches, coating the world in silver.
At this time, at the entrance of the Prince's Palace, a young man's slender figure stood in the snowy scene. The cold wind blew the fluff on his fiery red cloak. Even though the palace attendants behind him carefully held an umbrella to cover it, a few snowflakes still occasionally fell on it, and again on it.
Melted instantly.
The young man's hair is tied up in ink jade satin, with black silk like a waterfall. He has an extremely cold face that is actually a bit whiter than snow. His sword-shaped eyebrows fly into his temples, his nose looks like hanging bile, his lips are as thin as rouge, and he has flaming fox skin.
Under the cloak was a mysterious robe. Ordinary people couldn't hold back such extremely richly colored clothing. However, when it was worn on him, it made the young man even more handsome and noble.
There was a gentle smile on Sima Yi's lips, and his eyes were as dark as jade. When he touched the two figures walking out of the prince's palace, he smiled a little, but it was colder than the cold wind.
"Eighth Emperor Brother, I haven't seen you for many years, how are you?"
He opened his lips gently, his voice was like a spring breeze, warm and elegant, with a thin smile, as if he was really happy to see their brothers reunited.
Sima Hu looked at the elegant and noble young man in front of him, and his already gloomy expression became even more ferocious.
"Sima Yi!"
He spat out the other person's name word by word, as if biting flesh and blood.
"Your Highness!"
The frail young man next to Sima Hu held his hand to prevent him from being impulsive again.
They had gone through all kinds of hardships to get out of this place. At this time, if they were to face Sima Yi, who was extremely favored by the Holy Spirit, they would definitely suffer.
How could Sima Hu not know this truth? But when he thought of the aggrievedness and torture he suffered over the years, and being robbed of the status and honor that should have belonged to him, he wanted to tear Sima Yi to pieces.
Sima Yi seemed unable to see the hatred of the other party, and walked forward slowly, "Brother, I know that the Eighth Emperor Brother is coming out today, so I came here to take you to see my father. Eighth Emperor Brother, please come."
Sima Hu's face twitched a few times, he clenched his hands tightly and walked to him step by step.
"Sima Yi, since His Highness has come out, we should settle some accounts."
"What did the Eighth Emperor Brother say?"
Sima Yi asked as if he didn't understand, then he approached him, his thin lips curled up slightly, and in a voice that only the two of them could hear, he said, "Four years ago, Eighth Emperor Brother, you were a waste, and now, you are still."
Sima Hu's eyes were filled with anger, "Sima Yi!"
"My father said that the Eighth Emperor has repented and turned a new leaf," Sima Yi Jian frowned slightly, seeming helpless, "Why is it still like this... That's all, it's okay to be rude in front of your brother, but never do it again in front of your father.
It’s out of character.”
"you……"
Sima Hu wanted to punch this hypocritical villain in the face, but the training he had received over the years had left some shadows, and he did not dare to be as unscrupulous as before.
He smiled coldly, "I want to see how long you can keep pretending, Brother Four Emperors!"
Sima Yi smiled softly, "Let's go, Eighth Emperor Brother."
He turned around, and the fiery red cloak drew a bright arc in mid-air. The bright and noble color stung Sima Hu's eyes with bloodshot eyes.
He's just a mean demon star...
"Brother Four Emperors, you are pampered and prosperous, but you let your biological mother live in a dark and cold palace. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
Sima Yi paused and sighed, "My mother was so confused that she paralyzed my grandmother in bed. All I can do is serve my grandmother wholeheartedly and hope that she will recover soon. In this way, I can atone for my mother's sins."
Listen, these words are so filial and righteous. I'm afraid this Taima is not a saint, right?
