Chapter 154: Motherhood is Strong
In the prison, the iron fence is full of felons, a whole row of cells, some people wailing and crying, some people pulling their throats and horns, and the sound of whips being tortured on the skin, this is the dark place of the world.
A person walked in the depths of the prison, and it turned out to be led down by Ge Rong, the left eunuch of the court lieutenant, which showed that his status was noble.
This man came in with a tight and airtight fit before he took off his felt hat and revealed his delicate and gorgeous makeup, even in such a place, he still felt that he was outstandingly beautiful.
While leading the way, Tingwei said with a flattering smile: "Don't worry, the teacher will naturally have students take care of her, and you will never dare to be disrespectful." "When Ge Rong entered the autumn season, Su Yuan was the chief examiner. Since His Majesty personally abolished the title of Duke of Yasukuni in the court, others only called him the official name, but Ge Rong still called him teacher as before.
Su Jiang has been in power for a long time, so she naturally commanded, "What do you say, lead the way!" She has never taken people very seriously, although Ge Rong is a Beijing official, but there is no future if he does not rise or fall for so many years.
Tingwei Zuo Jian smiled on his face, and he felt mmp in his heart, only women and villains are difficult to raise!
Su Jiang was taken to the innermost room, which was simple and shabby, but the mattress was clean and did not look like a prison cell.
Tingwei unlocked the door and hugged his fists and went down, Su Yuan didn't look up when he heard the sound of Huanpei, but only scolded: "Why is it getting bigger and bigger? Although it is only a person from Tingwei's Mansion, if you entrust someone to do things, you have to get by on the face." β
Su Jiang had a sour nose when she heard this, "Big brother!" This tone seems to be messing around when she hasn't left the cabinet, Su Yuan also reprimanded her like this at that time, and later when she entered the palace, she was worried about the rules of the monarch and ministers when she met in a hurry, how could she have spoken like a family member?
Su Yuan raised his head and teased: "Isn't I very good? How old am I, why am I not as good as Ah Chi?"
Su Jiang wiped her tears, only to find that no tears had fallen, she had not shed tears for many years, and she sat beside Su Yuan. Seeing that he was wearing a white prison robe, his temples were white, and the wrinkles on his face had grown vigorously at some point, Su Jiang only felt sad: "We are all old!"
Su Yuan pulled her trench coat together, "It's just that the eldest brother is old, and your face is still the same as when you were young!"
Su Jiang was silent and felt even more sour, she lowered her head slightly: "People say that I am favored in the harem, and Your Majesty values the Su family, but I know in my heart that it is the eldest brother who has contributed to me in the previous dynasty all these years, so that no one dares to look down on me in the harem." At the beginning, I hid that I was going to have a child at home, and I wanted to follow Your Majesty, big brother, do you still blame me?" She was finally not the cold and lifeless concubine of Chongxi Palace, but the little girl beside her brother.
Su Yuan picked up the wine jug on the table, poured two glasses, and recalled the past: "It's not you, it's another sister who wants to enter the palace, Your Majesty named as long as you, it's your blessing." I told you back then, as long as you don't regret it. β
Su Jiang's hands were almost trembling, did she regret it?
If you don't regret it, why do you often feel that you are full of anger when you see Your Majesty? Why do you only feel like a stop in your heart when you see those newcomers with flower-like looks year after year, and you don't have the slightest vinegar when you were young? Why do you stop looking forward to your majesty and start to do it step by step?
But how can I regret it? I left my family and went into the most splendid palace, I have the most beautiful clothes and jewelry, I have the favor of the emperor, how can I regret it?
Su Yuan saw that she didn't speak, so he handed her a glass of wine and comforted: "You shouldn't have come, how many times have I told you." Now that you have entered the palace, although you are not expected to abide by the rules of the palace, Your Majesty's will cannot be violated. What kind of place is this, can you come? What does it look like for you, a concubine in the deep palace, to go out of the palace casually? If someone takes the handle, how will Your Majesty explain it?"
Su Jiang simply took off his big hat, "Big brother, don't worry, aren't you at ease when I do things now?" It was Ah Chi who came to the palace to beg me, and their brothers and sisters were worried about you. I thought that His Majesty would let it go lightly this time, why didn't I let you out after so long, and I avoided talking about it when I asked Your Majesty, not to mention the children, my heart was also messed up. β
When Su Yuan heard this, he stood up and held on to the iron door for a long time before sighing, Su Jiang already had a bad premonition when he saw that his hands were almost wrinkled, and he really listened to Su Yuan: "This matter is about the royal secrets, and I am inconvenient to say more to you." Don't involve yourself, maybe the Su family still has a chance to take advantage of. As for Ah Chi and Ah Ceng, I will entrust it to you. β
Su Jiang actually felt that his legs were weak, and he couldn't sit still, and asked Su Yuan with a face as white as paper: "Your Majesty wants the life of your eldest brother?" Your Majesty didn't just say that it would be tried, but it wouldn't be too bad if it wasn't tried. And although His Majesty has been in a bad mood these days, he has never said that the eldest brother is not, but he has praised Achen. β
Su Yuan was frightened: "What did A-Cen do? I originally thought that as long as their brother and sister were divided in peace, Your Majesty would always be able to let these two children go." β
Thinking of Ah Chi, thinking of Ah Chi, Su Jiang's heart was confused: "Big brother, what is going on! Don't scare me, our Su family has been loyal for so many years, Your Majesty will not treat me like this." β
"Don't you think that Your Majesty has tolerated the Su family for too long? Doesn't the death of the Shu family wake you up? Leave me alone and protect their brothers and sisters for me. And don't question Your Majesty, don't provoke him. Your Majesty has already come, and this time things will never be good. Su Yuan clenched his fists, as if he was holding back something.
"Big brother, I'll just ask you one last question. "Since this time has come, Su Jiang can't scruple anymore, and in the end he still can't hold back.
Su Yuan nodded, knowing in his heart.
Su Jiang trembled in her voice and looked nervous: "Ah Chi, she is not the child born to her sister-in-law, right? I checked the events of the year and asked many things about the year, but the sister-in-law never gave birth to a child at all, right?"
"What nonsense!" Su Yuan interrupted Su Jiang's questioning in annoyance.
"Everyone said that my sister-in-law died in childbirth, but that child was not born at all, wasn't it? When my sister-in-law died, I lived in the mountains and didn't know much about the family's affairs, but I remember that I hurried home and no one mentioned that the Su family had an extra child. After a while, I heard that there was an extra daughter, and you doted on her, but no one was allowed to see her. I had just lost my child, and I felt unlucky, so I never saw it. It's been a few years since I saw her again and entered the palace, how could Ah Chi's appearance and heart not be my daughter?"
Su Yuan turned his back, "I think you want to be crazy about your child, right? Ah Chi She is the daughter of the Su family, and she has been in this life." β
"Yes, I'm crazy, driven crazy by you. I lost two children, that slut of the Shu family, and Your Majesty, they didn't let me give birth to a child, why do you have to hide it from me, big brother? You don't know how happy I was when I knew that my daughter was still alive! Why didn't they let me have a child? I didn't want my child to fight for the throne, my man was stunned by that position, how could I be willing to let my son be so pitiful? In three years, I lost two children, and the doctor said that I can't have children in my life. How lonely life is in the palace! The sun shines on people, they are all cold, and even the pear blossoms in the Chongxi Hall are cold and fragrant!"
Su Yuan looked down at her with pity, "I knew today, why bother in the first place?"
Su Jiang had tears on her face, and simply knelt down: "Big brother, is Ah Chi my daughter?"
"Even if she is not my and Rong's child, I have raised her as a daughter in this life. Su Yuan had a look of relief on his face, turned around and helped Su Jiang up: "What are you doing here?"
"I knew it was like this, it turned out that it was really like this! I originally wanted her to live in the Su family for the rest of her life, and it was a big deal to let Su Ya marry her into the palace, but King Qinghe wanted to ask Ah Chi to be the princess, and His Majesty didn't seem to object. β
Su Yuan actually stood up and took half a step back: "How can this be?" As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his mouth as if he realized something.
What else did Su Jiang not understand when she heard this? Her voice was sharp, and she cried with joy, "Sure enough, I know that this is the case! Big brother, even if I fight for my life, I will definitely protect the child." β
"And Acer. β
"Hmm. Su Jiang no longer knew his original intention of coming, his eyes were full of joy, and the whole person seemed to be stunned. She walked up and down the cell, with a smile of obsessive happiness on her face, and she forgot everything around her. At this moment, she is just a mother who has lost her child.
Su Jiang, who was immersed in great happiness, her happiness bubble was burst by Su Yuan's words: "Your Majesty's heart to destroy the Su family, you have to cherish it, Ah Chi and Ah Cen will entrust it to you." Ah Chi's identity is a secret and must not be known to His Majesty. β
"Big brother, if Your Majesty knows Ah Chi's identityΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
"Your Majesty will never let go of the Su family because of this, you remember, I sacrificed so many lives to steal the pillars to protect your children, because I clearly know that Your Majesty can't tolerate any child with the blood of the Su family. Have you forgotten that proverb?"
It's like a bottle of ice water just smashed down on the head, and Su Jiang's eyes are bloodshot, why does it have to be like this?
The Su family is a former dynasty and a later family, the founding monarch of Beiwan overthrew the imperial city, and the middle palace where the former queen of the Su family lived was full of demonic flowers. Later, he invited the master of Yun'en Temple, saying that it was the descendants of the element family to suppress this grievance, so he chose the girl of the Su family to enter the palace and seal the low position. Deliberately assigned the original middle palace to the girl to live in, the demon flower was scattered overnight, and the miraculous thing was that the monarch was infatuated with the daughter of the Su family from then on, and the title of concubine was sealed. And the women of the Su family in the past generations have the ability to charm people's hearts, which is why the daughters of the Su family are not the tradition, and even the royal family is quite jealous. For so many years, not only the prince, but even the princess has never been, even if they are all favored. In addition, the plain girl is well-maintained, and her complexion is overwhelming, and the Su family faintly has rumors about the "demon concubine".
Su Jiang stumbled out, and when Ge Rong, the left eunuch of the court captain, sent her out, she felt inexplicable, and His Majesty specially explained that he was a good student to serve the Duke of Yasukuni. The Duke of Yasukuni himself was not shocked, and the princes and county lords in the palace were calm, why was this concubine so haggard?
Su Jiang just went out, Su Chi couldn't find Mo Di and entered the prison, Ge Rong nodded and signaled, the guards understood, and Mo Di turned around to see Su Yuan.
Mo Di stood in the prison and looked careless: "Guogong is a fierce medicine! But is it too early now? The concubine's temperament is too resolute, if it is too much, it will ruin the plan of the Guogong, and wait until His Majesty releases the Guogong, and then think about it in the long run." According to the current situation, as long as His Majesty beats King Yu a little, it is just around the corner for the Duke of Guo to go out. He still called him the Duke of the Kingdom, and did not take His Majesty's will to heart in the slightest.
Su Yuan raised his glass to Mo Di Yaoyao: "Su Jiang has no more feelings for His Majesty, if he doesn't add this fire, when will he be able to make a decision? β
Mo Di looked at Su Yuan's hand, it turned out to be His Majesty's unique three-day drunk, "Your Majesty actually brought you wine, it seems that my wine is superfluous." But doesn't Guogong really need Weichen to bring a message to the mansion? The prince and the county lord are very worried about Guogong. β
As for these two children, don't point out to them, you can't practice a thousand miles in the yard, and let me see how much the children have grown over the years. β
Su Jiang returned to the Chongxi Palace, bathed and changed his clothes.
"Where is Your Majesty?"
"Your Majesty has been doing it all night tonight, and no one has been hired to sleep. The Qi nobles prepared by the mother also failed to meet His Majesty. β
"Find an excuse to send her away casually in a few days, don't attract people's eyes. β
Xingbai pinched her shoulder, "Your Majesty has always disliked Niangniang's generosity, even if you know, you won't blame it." β
"At this time, Hongu doesn't want to have anything superfluous. Your Majesty, eat more snacks, and report to the palace every day for meals and sleep, and tell the palace what meals are used, how much are used, and what spices and fruits are used. Even if it is a small matter, it must not be slack. Su Jiang leaned against the bath and washed away his fatigue. "From today onwards, Your Majesty's recipe will be reformulated, go and get today's recipe. β
Xingbai answered, and listened to Su Jiang again: "Where's the polypin water?"
Xingbai's hand suddenly lost his strength, and Su Jiang smashed a bottle in his hand: "Bastard! How many years have I served, and I haven't been light or heavy in my hand!"
Xingbai didn't dare to beg for mercy, but listened to Su Jiang sigh: "Forget it, go on!" I don't blame you, you have all the ability, but you do these unsightly things with this palace in this unsightly place, even if this palace can't stand you." The news from Mo Di will also be reported one by one, if Ah Chi delivers the news in, the palace will know it as soon as possible!"
Xingbai didn't know what Su Yuan said to Su Jiang, but for the first time, she felt that Niangniang didn't seem to be as cold as before, and it was rare to babble a few words, she bowed her head and served, not daring to speak.
Su Jiang scrubbed his arm with flower petals, "Go and let people breathe muscle water!javascript:"
"Mother, this month's amount has been used up. β
"Then go get the next month's supply!"
Although polyponic water is a good thing, it can moisturize the delicate and smooth skin and keep it young forever. But if there is a mistake in the dosage, I am afraid that it will cost people's lives, so think twice!"
"What's the stake with my life? You go and get the muscle water, and let them invite Your Majesty to come to the Chongxi Palace. Don't grind any further!"
The night was dark and the wind was high, Xingbai walked to the place where the servants lived in the backyard, and quietly put a note under the wooden barrel used by the subordinates to sprinkle and sweep, and when the time came, someone naturally came to pick it up. The word is specially used by the Su family to spread the news, and the special potion is used, so I don't worry about mistakes.
