When the first rays of sunlight in the morning poured into the courtyard, a thin boy of about eleven or twelve walked in with a girl about seven or eight years old walking side by side.

The servant woman who was sweeping the yard saw that she was busy bowing and saluting, "The dew is heavy in the morning, why don't Lang Jun and the lady add more coats?"

Compared with other places, the imperial tomb is always a little heavier, although it is spring, get up early and don't wear a coat, you can always feel the slightest coolness.

The young man pursed his lips and smiled, shaking his head, "Thank you for reminding you, my sister and I walked a few laps along the yard just now, and our bodies are not cold." ”

The girl raised her head, revealing a pointed chin and a pair of delicate eyes, and said softly, "Thank you for the reminder." ”

The sound of walking and talking sounded in the main room.

"Mother got up. The boy nodded slightly, and led the girl in.

The sprinkler grandmother looked at the equally thin backs of the two, sighed secretly in her heart, lowered her head and continued to sprinkle and sweep.

The door of the main room was pushed open, and the boy and girl walked in side by side, bowing to the woman who had just come out of the inner room, "Greetings to Mother." ”

The woman looked to be less than thirty years old, but there were shallow marks between her eyebrows, which seemed to be the result of frequent frowning.

Seeing the boy and the girl, the woman's brow loosened a little, and her eyes flashed with maternal tenderness, and she beckoned.

The girl let go of the boy's hand and threw herself into the woman's arms.

The woman was the waste princess Shi, and she wiped the fine sweat on her forehead lovingly, "This early in the morning, An'er took you out for a walk again, and she sweated carefully, and then got the wind cold." ”

The girl snuggled in Shi's arms, different from the cowardice just now, there was obvious admiration in her eyes and a little arrogance in front of her mother, "Xin'er is in good health, so she won't get the cold." ”

Shi smiled and squinted her eyes and scratched her little nose, "That's right, you are in better health than your brother when he was a child." ”

After that, he turned his head to look at the young man standing next to him, and said softly, "Did An'er read late last night, and when did you go to bed?"

An'er hurriedly waved her hand, "The son remembered his mother's instructions, and fell asleep before the end of the day." ”

Shi's expression eased, but his heart was a little gloomy.

An'er is a child who loves to read, and has a gentle and elegant temperament, which is completely different from the violence of the abolished prince.

But they are guarding this imperial mausoleum all year round, and the child has read so many books but has no future, she feels uncomfortable when she thinks about it.

Although Shi thought so, she didn't dare to show her emotions in front of the children, both children were sensitive, and she was afraid that the children would be hurt.

Since coming to the Imperial Mausoleum, Shi's heart has settled down, and she feels that it is good to live like this with her two children.

At least there are no more disgusting fights.

But as the two children grew up day by day, her heart gradually became heavier, and every time she saw An'er and Xin'er, she was worried about the two children.

Especially Xin'er has such a mother.

Thinking of this, Shi Shi looked at Xin'er in his arms, "After returning from your mother yesterday, did your mother scold you?"

Xin'er's expression darkened, and she shook her head slightly.

She ...... She has been bad lately and doesn't have the strength to scold me. ”

Shi frowned.

Since Mu Yan was sent to the imperial tomb, at the beginning, she was crazy every day, either trying to run out, or picking and choosing, disgusted by the difficult conditions.

didn't even look at Xin'er who was still in swaddling clothes.

Shi couldn't, so he had to take Xin'er over and raise it himself.

Xin'er has been carried by Shi since she was a baby until she was four years old.

Four years ago, Mu Yan suddenly reacted and realized that Xin'er might be her future dependence, and she came to her yard to cry every day, and she had to take Xin'er back to her yard to raise.

Although Shi was reluctant, it was not easy to stop him.

Mu Yan took Xin'er back, but she didn't like Xin'er to come to Shi's day by day to ask for peace, thinking that Shi's daughter was not close to her.

Although Xin'er followed her back, she never refused to call Mu Yanniang.

Every time Xin'er went back from her, she was inevitably scolded.

Shi couldn't, so he had to ask Xin'er not to come to her yard as much as possible.

Ke Xin'er is stubborn, and she still can't be thundered every day.

It wasn't until two months ago that Mu Yan fell ill, and Xin'er was less scolded.

"Why have you taken the medicine for so long, and it still doesn't get better?" Shi Shi frowned and muttered.

Xin'er's small head was buried in Shi's arms, smelling the fragrant breath of Shi's body, and she tried her best to suppress the tears in her eyes.

Although she knew that woman was her biological mother, she believed that there was only one mother in her heart, so she was not that woman.

The woman never looked at her with a trace of love, and never held her in her arms like a mother.

The mother and son talked, and suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the yard.

"Madame, Madame, Holy ......... A decree has arrived. The servant's voice came in.

Divine Decree?Shi's heart jumped suddenly, and his face changed greatly.

In just a few moments, Shi's, An'er, Xin'er and the concubines of the abolished prince all gathered in the courtyard.

Except for Mu Yan, who was seriously ill.

The chamberlain began to read out the holy decree, "Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: On the occasion of the emperor's longevity, there is a special amnesty for the world, and you and others will return home........."

Shi Shi clenched her hands tightly and listened to the voice of the waiter, her fingernails were almost broken, and when the waiter finished reading the holy decree, her tears flowed down, and the whole person fell to the ground crying.

Not for myself, but for the sake of the two children.

His Majesty allowed her to return to Beijing with An'er and Xin'er.

In the end, they are the grandsons of the Emperor Taishang, and when they return to Jinling, they will be taken care of by the Emperor Taishang, at least An'er will have an errand in the future, and Xin'er will be able to marry smoothly.

Although they may endure strange stares, it is better than being trapped in this imperial tomb for the rest of their lives.

Shi received the order, and the courtyard was full of crying, some concubines still had their families alive, so they could naturally go home for reunion, and they naturally cried with joy, and some concubines had no one at home for a long time, and they had nowhere to go home, so they were naturally in a hurry.

Mu Yan stumbled, rushed into the courtyard with a cloak, and when she saw the yellow holy decree in Shi's hand, she rushed over and snatched it.

"The emperor asked someone to take us back to Beijing, isn't it? Haha, I knew that we would go back to enjoy the blessings. ”

She muttered frantically, her eyes fell on the words that allowed Shi to return home and allow Shi to return to Beijing with her two children, and immediately threw the holy decree to the ground in anger.

The Mu family has long been finished, where is there still a place for her to return home.

"Fake, this must be fake, I'm the crown princess who gave birth to a child, why don't you let me go back?"

She glared at Shi angrily, "It's you, it's you who hurt me, right?"

She looked crazy, her eyes were fierce, and Xin'er was so frightened that she hid in Shi's arms.

Xin'er's evasive appearance stimulated Mu Yan even more, and she went crazy to pull Xin'er, "You little conscienceless, what's the use of me raising you?"

Her sudden tear caused Xin'er to scream in fear.

While protecting Xin'er, Shi instructed the servant woman to pull Mu Yan away.

A group of servants desperately tried to pull Mu Yan, but after Mu Yan was forcibly pulled away, she was pushed to the ground.

She got up and ran out in a frenzy.

Two days later, Mu Yan's cold body was found at the entrance of the imperial mausoleum.

At that time, Shi had already taken his two children to get on the carriage back to Beijing.
