Chapter 4623: Farewell Is Forever

These words made everyone sad and silent for a while.

"Alas!" Yun Wu cried.

Gu Chengan sighed softly.

The two Mingcheng brothers both looked solemn, but it could be seen in their eyes that they were both full of difficult emotions.

"Auntie, you must come back." An Hao choked with sobs and slowly knelt down.

The others also knelt down one by one, facing the direction of the carriage, and refused to get up for a long time.

Except for two people.

Qian'er and Xiaoer.

The two siblings looked at each other, stood up at the same time, untied the rope tied to the tree, jumped on a horse, patted the horse's back, and jumped to follow.

"Princess, Prince! Where are you going?"

Ming Jing called out.

"We, my brothers and sisters, are escorting our mother. Elders, please come back! Brother Emperor, wait until we come back before we can apologize to you!"

The voice came from afar.

It has actually gone far.

Yan'er stood motionless.

This time, he didn't stop or get angry.

At this moment, he suddenly understood something.

As the emperor, he stood at the highest point of the Zhou Kingdom and enjoyed the worship of all people.

This is honor, this is right.

But they are also shackles.

Locked in the word "emperor", he could not have his own emotions, could not act arbitrarily, could not leave Kyoto, and could not send his biological parents on their last journey.

This imperial city, this Kyoto, this Great Zhou Dynasty, to him, is an extremely huge cage.

No wonder, his father told him thank you for his hard work, and his mother said sorry to him.

Although the younger brothers and sisters did not get the country, they were free.

At first, many people didn't understand why the mother-in-law didn't pass the throne to her own daughter when she became the empress of Northern Qi, but to her niece.

It turns out that in the eyes of the queen mother, the throne is just a prison.

She doesn't like it.

Not uncommon either.

Yan'er understood her parents' painstaking efforts and felt relieved.

Life is lonely after all.

No matter his parents, lover, or children, it is impossible for him to really accompany him throughout his life.

In this life, he will eventually have to face it alone.

Then, come on.

…

The young children were the first to catch up with the carriage.

Baoxing was driving, and Qingyi was sitting next to him. In the carriage, Zhao Yuanjing accompanied Yundai, and heard the clatter of horse hooves.

Yun Dai didn't need to poke her head, she smiled and said, "Which of our children do you think is catching up?"

Zhao Yuanjing chuckled: "Other than that naughty kid, who else dares to easily disobey Yan'er's orders?"

Sure enough, the next moment, the child's unique clear and loud voice reached their ears.

"Father, mother, queen, my daughter is here!"

Zhao Yuanjing poked his head out, and as expected, saw Qian'er and Xiaoer following closely behind.

Zhao Yuanjing smiled a little dotingly and indulgently, and sat back without saying anything.

Yun Dai leaned on the soft pillow to breathe and asked, "The eldest son didn't come with you, did he?"

"No."

"Oh, I really feel that among the children, the one I feel most sorry for is Yan'er." Yun Dai sighed, feeling both relieved and sad.

What is gratifying is that this child finally allowed his reason to prevail and persisted in his duties and responsibilities as the emperor.

The sad thing is that his younger brothers and sisters can follow him without restraint, but he can only stand there and watch.

This farewell is forever.

Yun Dai closed her eyes, and before her eyes was what Yan'er looked like when she was young.

A small ball, looking pitiful and almost frozen to death.

If the passing Zhao Yuanjing hadn't taken action, the little guy would have been thrown to death.

A sensible and gentle child since childhood.
