Chapter 835: An Zhulin's Past Life

Previous Chapter

The wisteria flowers in the yard bloomed again, and An Zhulin sat under the porch, looking at the purple light flowing all over the shelves, and it was rare to relax for a while, but he was coughed a few times by the cool morning breeze.

She was about to get up and go back when she heard a commotion at the gate of the courtyard, and she turned her head to look, and was instantly shocked.

In the morning light, a tall man walked in, and behind him, there were thousands of brilliant morning rays, shrouding his tall figure, bright eyebrows and eyes, so handsome that people were ashamed of themselves.

His parents and family followed him, with flattery on their faces.

"You ......"

Although a heart was about to jump out of his chest, An Zhulin still wanted to confirm it.

The man walked up to her, stared at her with a gentle look in his eyes, and then leaned slightly, and bowed to her with humility:

"In Xia Xu Chenglin, I have admired Miss An for many years, and I came to ask for an appointment today, and I hope Miss An will agree. ”

Xu Chenglin...... There you are. ”

An Zhulin stood up, and the vague shadow in his heart was completely completed at this moment.

It turns out that he looks like this, her fiancΓ©, whom everyone praises, is finally coming to marry her.

Later, until a person died alone, An Zhulin would still think of the fragrance of wisteria flowers that day, as well as the upright lines on Xu Chenglin's purple brocade robe.

That shows that the greatest luck in her life has finally come.

Before getting on the sedan chair, her sister-in-law ran to her and asked her jealously:

"Sister, you have been on the sickbed for so many years, and you have refused to die, just waiting for this day, right?"

An Zhulin didn't argue with her for the first time, and nodded with a smile:

"That's right, I don't want to die, just wait for him to marry me, after all, he has waited for me for so many years, how can I be embarrassed to call him empty?"

No one can deny that Xu Chenglin, who is the prince of Weibei Hou, has brought her much confidence and luck.

The most outstanding man in the legend of the capital, because of a glimpse of her when he was young, has had a soft spot for her since then, regardless of the bad reputation of the Anguo Mansion, regardless of her sick and weak body for many years, he came to propose marriage, and waited for many years.

This is all the reasons why her parents went from dislike to pampering her, and the sisters of the Anguo Mansion went from pity to jealousy for her.

Since then, she has lingered on the sickbed, but she has a living thought in her heart.

She sketched the appearance of that person in her heart, even if she had never seen it, but she knew that no matter what that person looked like, it was a blessing for her to fall in love with her.

She sat in the sedan chair and touched her face, glad that although God gave her a weak body, it gave her a face that was still visible.

She thought that if she got married today, from now on, her life would be destined to be a splendid life.

The days after getting married were dull, but they were extraordinarily warm.

The population of Weibei Hou Mansion is simple, but it is unusually wealthy, her sister-in-law Xu Chenghuan is the queen of the dynasty, and the concubine Shu in the palace is also from Weibei Hou Mansion.

Before and after others, Xu Chenglin treated her gently and considerately, except for not talking much, the rest was impeccable.

Her parents-in-law have never embarrassed her, and those who once looked down on her will talk to her enthusiastically when they see her.

In the past, the imperial doctor who could not afford to be hired by the Anguo Mansion would also come to see her, and the medicinal materials that could not be used were sent like a stream, and her body actually improved day by day.

An Zhulin often wonders if she is dreaming, otherwise, how could she have such good luck?

She was cautiously rejoicing, lest one accidentally wake up from the dream.

So she has to abide by the duty of a wife more than other women, when Xu Chenglin is studying under the lamp, she will often accompany her, serve tea and pour water, spread paper and grind.

He would often turn his head to look at her and say mildly:

"If you are weak, go and rest early, and you don't have to accompany me. ”

But she insisted on accompanying him, carefully hiding her humble admiration and sweet thoughts.

After a long time, he seemed to see her anxiety and uneasiness, and comforted her:

"You and I are husband and wife, you don't have to be restrained in front of me, you can do whatever you want. ”

Later, he gradually talked to her about the books he read, but fortunately, she had been sick for many years, and she just read books when she had nothing to do, and the two of them could talk more and more, and the faint alienation between husband and wife became more and more shallow.

One night, she had the courage to ask him:

"Husband, when did you see me? I used to be sick and didn't look good......

This is actually the doubt in her heart for many years.

Most of her days are spent on the sickbed, and there are not many opportunities to go out, how did a noble son like him see her?

He seemed to be contemplating his eyebrows and recalling for a moment, before he smiled:

"Once, when I was passing by the suburbs of Beijing, I saw a woman fluttering butterflies from a distance, and I thought it was particularly beautiful. ”

Under the shadow of the candle, Xu Chenglin's smile was as usual, but An Zhulin's back was cold, and his heart sank to the bottom

It must not be her, she had never been to the outskirts of Beijing before she got married!

Could it be that what he saw was one of her sisters, not her?

So, is she stealing someone else's luck?

That night, she had a nightmare, and when she woke up, it was still late at night.

She stared at the pillow's heroic eyebrows, quietly reached out and hugged his solid arm, and quietly wept.

If one day, if she is discovered, should she wake up from this dream?

But she didn't know when he woke up.

He gently took her in the crook of his arm and asked her what was wrong?

Perhaps the truth came too suddenly, and she asked him by surprise:

"What if you found out that the woman you saw wasn't me?"

In the silent night, his breath froze for a moment before he said:

"Actually...... It doesn't matter, whether that woman is you or not, since we are already married, it will only be you, don't think about it. ”

It's going to be you.

What a beautiful four words, An Zhulin suddenly fell into his arms and cried, and all the previous worries were vented together.

Since then, she has not been as scared as before, and she can finally sit confidently in her position as the wife of the Hou Shizi of Weibei.

Xu Chenglin also treats her better and better.

He went out to Beijing to run horses with people, occasionally took her, taught her to ride horses, and took her on a spring day. When she returned home after official business, he would bring her new exquisite snacks in the capital, buy her novel jewelry, and make her smile.

Except for the fact that she has no heirs for a long time, everything is fine.

The first time the two quarreled was when Xu Chenghuan's position as queen was unstable.

An Zhulin has always felt that his sister-in-law has a good life, but there is one thing that is the same as himself, that is, the heir.

An Zhulin is weak and it is difficult to get pregnant, but Xu Chenghuan has given birth to none of them, and in the past few years, he has already died of two children.

And she is also jealous, the emperor's harem is empty except for her.

Before An Zhulin had time to discuss with her mother-in-law whether to let her sister-in-law want to open more, the courtiers had already begun to write to ask the emperor to abolish the queen.

The Weibei Hou Mansion has military power in its hands, but this kind of thing is always a loss.

In those days, the family was worried about Xu Chenghuan in the palace, and Xu Chenglin was not at home all day long, and when the turmoil calmed down, it was Xu Chenglin who received the emperor's decree and was going to the southeast to guard.

Mrs. Hou Shizi of Weibei for so long, An Zhulin is no longer the Miss Anguo Mansion who didn't know anything back then, she knows that in the southeast, the Lin family has been entrenched for many years, that is the head snake, Xu Chenglin just went to the southeast, and there was more than luck!

"Why do you have to go? Can't you think about it?"

She asked Xu Chenglin angrily, but Xu Chenglin was resolute:

"Cheng Huan's life in the palace is already difficult, if I don't go, do I have to watch her being persecuted by the ministers? ”

She was too afraid of losing Xu Chenglin, and quarreled with him without words:

"Originally, everything was fine, as long as she was willing to give the emperor a concubine, there would be no problem! There have always been many queens who have no heirs, why is she so jealous?"

"Jealous?" Xu Chenglin's eyes instantly flashed with coldness: "Don't you have to have your husband's three wives and four concubines to be jealous of An Zhulin, do you also want me to have three wives and four concubines?"

An Zhulin was stunned for a moment, and said loudly:

"Yes, I won't be like the queen mother! I know that I can't give birth to children, I won't monopolize my husband, as long as you don't go, I will give you a concubine, and if I have a child in the future, I will also record it in my own name and treat it as my own!"

An Zhulin felt that she was already enduring humiliation and taking care of the overall situation, but after she said this, all she got was Xu Chenglin's long silence.

"Madame is so virtuous!"

It was a long time before he sneered, walked past her, and was about to go out.

An Zhulin chased after him and grabbed his sleeve:

"Don't go! I mean it, it's all my heart!"

"I can't afford to be a lady!"

Xu Chenglin threw down such a sentence and left in a hurry.

An Zhulin froze in place, thinking about it for a long time, but he didn't understand what was going on.

As a woman, she didn't want others to share her husband with her, but now, she has thought very clearly.

Without a son-in-law, the title of the Marquis of Weibei Mansion will be withdrawn, and the father-in-law and mother-in-law have no complaints for the time being, which does not mean that they will sit back and watch the heir of the Marquis of Weibei in the future.

Instead of waiting for others to abandon her, it is better to take the initiative to give her husband a concubine, at least, it is better to divide her husband a little bit than to lose it completely, as long as Xu Chenglin's heart is still on her, then she can bear the rest.

But what does Xu Chenglin mean? Could it be that she took the initiative to take a concubine for him, and she worked hard to be a virtuous and generous woman, which was also wrong?

After all, it was not stopped, Xu Chenglin soon went to the southeast, and after a few years of good times, An Zhulin was suddenly left to live a lonely life.

An Zhulin suddenly hated Xu Chenghuan in his heart.

She instinctively felt that in Xu Chenglin's heart, this sister was far more important than her wife.

But Xu Chenghuan has everything, and she has only one Xu Chenglin.

A few years later, the news of the death of Lin Daocheng, the head of the Lin family, came from the southeast, and Xu Chenglin was finally able to return to Beijing to visit relatives.

"You're back......"

She looked at him as she returned with red eyes, and his originally cold eyes gradually melted.

He hugged her, and the husband and wife seemed to have never had the same quarrel as before.

An Zhulin thought that the days could finally return to the past, but they were broken again.

Because the elder brother came back, the emperor was gracious, and Empress Enzhun returned to the Hou Mansion to reunite with her family.

This is the first time An Zhulin has sat at a table with this brother and sister to eat.

In the past, Xu Chenglin would use chopsticks to pick up vegetables for her and take care of her preferences, but that day, his attention was all on his sister, and the look in his eyes was completely different from when he looked at her.

The brother and sister talked and laughed, although Wei Beihou and Mrs. Wei Beihou were also present, An Zhulin instinctively felt uncomfortable in his heart, and hurriedly got up to leave.

Once a little seed of doubt is planted in a person's heart, he can't help but want to explore and find out something again and again.

She soon knew that the wishful knot in Xu Chenglin's study was given by the queen's mother, and he never left him before he got married.

She also knew from Xu Chengru, who was already married, that when the queen mother was young, she always liked to sneak out to buy pastries outside, and she was told many times by Mrs. Weibei Hou that she still liked the novelty outside.

The queen likes to ride horses and is used to going out for spring every year.

All the good things in those days suddenly made An Zhulin feel like a stand-in.

And the idea hidden behind this, An Zhulin didn't want to think about it.

She only knew that after such a long time, she could tolerate the concubine to separate Xu Chenglin, but she couldn't tolerate Xu Chenglin having someone else in her heart, and she didn't want the rest of her life to be shrouded in Xu Chenghuan's shadow.

She did not hesitate to find an opportunity and poisoned Xu Chenghuan.

When Xu Chenghuan returned to the Weibei Hou Mansion again, she personally brought her a cup of tea, and a day later, the poison came out.

The people in the palace turned their backs, and An Zhulin quietly waited for the news of the queen's death, and she was sure that no one would find out about her head.

In the end, Xu Chenghuan didn't die, but she was seriously ill, she was a little regretful, no matter how good the folk poison was, it really couldn't withstand the imperial doctor in the palace.

But she didn't expect that Xu Chenghuan would come to her.

"Why did my sister-in-law poison me?"

The pair of haggard eyes that were tortured by the ups and downs of life looked at her coldly, illuminating the darkness in her heart.

"Is the queen wantonly slandering her courtiers?"

She rolled her eyes away in a panic, trying not to admit it.

But she saw Xu Chenglin not far away at a glance.

At that moment, she knew it was all over.

Xu Chenglin was about to kill her with a sword, but was stopped by Xu Chenghuan.

The woman's soft-heartedness is ridiculous:

"Brother, I'm already better off than dead, in fact, if she harms me or not, I won't live long...... I know brother, you like her, I can see your face and not pursue it. But send her away, lest your father and her mother also misfortune. ”

Xu Chenghuan left, leaving her and Xu Chenglin, who were no longer able to return to the past.

She closed her eyes resignedly, not wanting to explain anything:

"Kill me. ”

She could already feel the cold blade on her neck, but it didn't fall for a long time.

There was a little choking in his voice:

"Do you know that if you don't hurt her, I'll ......"

What will happen to him?

Will they be able to live well and never be separated again?

An Zhulin smiled, she didn't believe it.

Xu Chenghuan was actually wrong, Xu Chenglin never liked her An Zhulin, she was just a chess piece he found casually, and she could be discarded at any time.

In the end, she heard the sound of the long sword falling to the ground, opened her eyes, and Xu Chenglin's back left her with vicissitudes.

When he came, the morning sun brought all the light, and when he went, there was only this one back, and before her eyes, there was only darkness.

A person has been locked up in Zhuangzi for many years, no matter how chaotic the world outside is, no matter how bloody the capital is, An Zhulin has only heard of it.

When she felt that she was going to die, she asked to see Xu Chenglin, but the answer she got was that he was far away in the southeast.

He was busy leading troops to rebel and seek justice from the emperor for his sister, and as for his wife, he probably didn't remember it for a long time.

Before An Zhulin closed his eyes, he vaguely saw a flash of golden light in the southeast.

Sure enough, I still love him, and even his direction will feel full of light.

If you can't get it in the end, why should you have it?

If everything could be done all over again, she would have wished she had never dreamed of it.

Many years later, Xu Chenglin, who was named the Duke of Weiguo because of his dragon work, was about to die because of an old injury.

The new emperor went to see him personally.

"Wei Guogong can't let go of anything, I'll help you do it. ”

is not only a monarch and a minister, but also a comrade, but also a brother, the emperor looked at the once high-spirited general about to die, with tears in his eyes.

Xu Chenglin looked at the bed tent covering his vision above his head, and thought for a while:

"The minister has two wishes, one is that he hopes that the emperor can choose one person from the Xu family to inherit the title of the Duke of Weiguo, which can be regarded as the minister's explanation to his ancestral parents. Second, it is the hope that he can be buried with the minister's wife. ”

"I promised you, but where is your wife buried...... How come I've never heard of it?"

The emperor never knew that Xu Chenglin still had a wife, only that he was a monster who was not close to women.

Xu Chenglin closed his eyes:

"The minister doesn't know either, so he has to entrust it to the emperor...... She's a good wife, and I've done a lot to her. ”

Back then, I just wanted to pull a woman out at random and tie it up with myself to fight against the messy things of those years, but I never thought that it would bury the lives of the two of them like this.

When she died, he was not there, and when she returned, she could not even find her grave.

After Xu Chenglin's death, the emperor dug three feet into the ground, and finally found the tomb of Mrs. Xu Chenglin, and also knew all about the past.

"It's this woman's impure heart, how can I blame you?"

The emperor sighed.

Although he was a little reluctant, he still buried them in one place according to Xu Chenglin's wishes, and also posthumously crowned the Duchess of the State for the Na An family.

Looking back at his harem with few concubines, the emperor was also sick.

His wife is long gone, and although he has avenged it with his own hands, he is also really guilty in his heart.

No matter how crazy and stupid Bai Chenghuan is, that is also his original wife.

The emperor, who had recovered from his illness, quickly drafted a holy decree and sealed it.

After a hundred years, he must be buried with his wife, so that he may be able to continue to be husband and wife in the next life.

With such a wish, Emperor Taifeng had an inexplicable hope in his heart when he died.

Bai Chenghuan, what will happen if we meet again in the next life? 2k reading web
