Chapter 1337: Maybe, I'll Be Older Than Him...

cpa300_4(); After returning from Jixian Palace, I first went back to Yihua Palace.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard a noisy voice from inside, which was a wonderful story.

"Where the hell did my mother go, she wouldn't want me, would she?"

"Miss Sun, don't talk nonsense, why doesn't the eldest lady want you?"

"Then why doesn't she keep coming back?"

"Miss-your mother is accompanying His Majesty the Emperor, and they have a lot of important things to do. ”

"Big deal, bigger than mine?"

It seems that I haven't come back for the past two days, so that Miaoyan can't sit still, hearing her words, Su Su couldn't help laughing, but she didn't know how to answer, but Mama Wu's laughing voice sounded, and said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, don't be anxious, your mother has always been hanging on to you, it's just that there are so many people and so many things in the world, there are always some who have to catch up with Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

Hearing Mama Wu say this, she was quiet for a while, silent for a while, and when I walked to the door, I heard her say in a low voice: "I don't want my mother to care about anything, just accompany me." But—I want to see my mother. ”

This sentence made my heart sour.

My daughter......

I know she's sticky to me, and I know she's sensible, but when the two come together, I feel a little confused.

Being my daughter, is she really too wronged?

And at this moment, she pouted and looked out, and suddenly saw me: "Mother!"

As soon as I heard her surprised voice, I immediately cheered up and walked in with a smile, but before I could reach the threshold, she had already jumped out and crashed into my arms: "Mother, you are finally back!"

"Yes, my mother is back. ”

I was full of love, and even a little guilty hugged her, I only felt that my arms were full, and my heart was full, but I couldn't say anything, I just hugged her and smiled, but I couldn't help but moisten my eyes.

Su Su and Mama Wu in the house couldn't help but laugh when they looked at us.

I stayed with Miaoyan in Yihua Palace all day, and she stuck to me like a sticky plaster until the evening, after dinner, and she finally relented.

I was also relieved.

Come to think of it, no matter what I have experienced and what I will experience, as long as she is by my side, I am really not afraid of anything.

However, as Mama Wu said, it's enough for me to have her, but I really can't be by her side all the time, after dinner, I asked Su Su to take her to play for a while, and then I was going out, Miao Yan was very vigilant, and when I saw that I was ready to go out, I immediately ran over and hugged my waist-

"Mother, where are you going?"

I looked back at her, couldn't help laughing, and reached out to pat her face: "Mother go to Jingren Palace and meet the queen mother." ”

"Ah......h

"She's sick, do you remember? ”

"I'm going too. ”

"No, sick people don't like to see too many people, that will disturb her, you just obediently play here for a while, and my mother will go back. ”

She was also really well-behaved, so she was persuaded by me, standing at the door and watching me leave, her reluctant eyes in the reflection of the lantern under the eaves, looking particularly pitiful.

I went to Jingren Palace, and as soon as I entered the door, I realized that Pei Yuanhao had just left.

Chang Qing had just taken the medicine, and she was still a little groggy, when I entered the house, I only saw her pale face by the bed, she kept chilling, as if she wanted to say something, but she kept biting her lower lip in the chaos, almost biting a wound under the lip flap.

She has always been a person who is not used to talking, let alone complaining.

Even when she was so vulnerable, she wouldn't let herself open her mouth lightly.

In her position, she really can't open her mouth lightly.

Looking at her like this, I only felt more heartache, but fortunately, Nian Shen has been by her bedside since he came back from the imperial study, and I gently asked him how Tobe's last incident was resolved, and he smiled at me.

And I got it.

At this time, Zheng Chai was no longer the opponent of the prince and Chabixing joining forces.

Nian Shen said again: "Actually, before, the queen mother was still at ease, and she slept after listening to me come back and talk about the affairs of the imperial study." ”

I looked at Chang Qing's pale and emaciated face, and said softly, "She's also very tormented." ”

Nian listened deeply and lowered his head slightly.

I looked at him, "What's wrong?"

He said: "During the day, Concubine Ning also came. ”

When I heard this, my heart suddenly stirred, and I hurriedly asked, "Did she say anything?"

Nian Shen said: "This time, because it was Wu Shangshu's business, my father allowed her to go home, and she came back when she was ugly." As soon as he returned, he hurried to see the queen mother. Listening to her, Mrs. Wu's situation is not very good. ”

"Yes......"

Just hearing him say that, I felt a cramp in my chest.

Nian Shen wrapped his fingers around the corners of his clothes, just like his troubled mind at the moment, and after a long while, he said softly to me: "My father has issued an order to give the Wu family and Mrs. Wu a three-grade edict. ”

"Really?"

I sighed softly, this is indeed a generous gift, a three-grade order, and a rare honor for ordinary officials' wives, but I know that for a woman like Yang Jinyao, any honor and dignity have no meaning to her, and all she asks for is the person next to her.

Thinking of this, my heart hurts even more.

At this time, Nian Shen's voice sounded softly in his ears again-

"Aunt Qing, I want to go and see Mrs. Wu, but I'm afraid to see her......"

“……”

"I didn't dare face her. ”

“……”

Seeing him cringe a little, my heart was also bitter.

At this time, who can face Yang Jinyao?

I was silent for a long time, and then said softly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I think that after going through this incident, you have grown up a lot, and you should understand that there are some things that you should face by yourself, and you must face them." ”

“……”

"Especially in this matter, there is no one who can replace you. ”

“……”

"If you really want to visit Mrs. Wu, Aunt Qing can accompany you, but you still have to say it yourself. ”

Nian Shen's eyes flickered, looked at me, and said, "Thank you, Aunt Qing." ”

I smiled and gently patted him on the shoulder.

This young man is only in his early tens, but he has experienced much more than children of the same age, and he has matured much faster.

Maybe the general trend of the world and the future direction are really on him.

I hope that the qiē planted before is all good causes.

|

Sure enough, two days later, Pei Yuanhao's will was made.

As Nian Shen said, the emperor gave the people of Wu Mansion generously, granted Yang Jinyao a three-grade edict, and the prince personally went to Wu Mansion to promulgate the decree, which can be regarded as the supreme grace of the courtier who handed over his life to the court and handed over to the imperial family.

As prefaced, I also accompanied Nian Shen to Wu Mansion.

Wu Yanqiu is now falling into the Yellow River, life and death are unknown, although everyone knows very well that in such a turbulent embankment, the possibility of surviving is almost zero, it is said that life and death are uncertain, but everyone knows that it is nine deaths and one life; but everyone is still willing to hold that glimmer of hope, Wu Mansion did not mourn, let alone furnish the mourning hall, all the furnishings are still the same as usual, but the moment you enter the gate, you can also feel the gloom of the people in this mansion.

My breath was even suffocated at this moment.

When Nian Shen announced the decree, Yang Jinyao did not appear, because she was pregnant, and she was hit like this, she was not sick but also sick, and all the people in the family came to kneel to receive the holy decree, and after it was over, the housekeeper led me and Nian Shen to their wife's room together.

Then, I met Yang Jinyao.

Although I had thought in advance how haggard and painful she would be, when I really saw this young woman lying on the bed with blank eyes and a sallow face, no matter how the maid next to her persuaded her to pass the decoction to her mouth, she was motionless and refused to open her mouth, and my heart was still stabbed fiercely.

The girl's spoon tilted slightly, and the decoction did not enter her mouth, but flowed down the corner of her mouth, and the girl was so anxious that she snorted, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to wipe her, and said with a crying voice: "Madam, don't be like this, you drink some medicine." ”

“……”

Yang Jinyao still didn't react.

Seeing this scene, my heart was also extremely uncomfortable, but the housekeeper walked up slowly and said softly: "Madam, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Yan have come to visit Madame." ”

“……”

I walked over to the side of the bed and said softly, "Jin Yao......"

She blinked blankly, then slowly looked up at me.

"Jin Yao, it's me, I've come to see you. ”

“……”

"And the Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also here, and he has also come to visit you. ”

“……”

Although she looked at me, but those eyes were still godless, not even a little light, Nian Shen walked to the side of the bed, as if she wanted to say something, but when she met those eyes, she couldn't say anything, she only lowered her head and said softly: "Mrs. Wu." ”

Yang Jinyao turned her head to him again.

I don't know how long it had been since she had eaten, had not drunk water, her lips were completely dry and cracked, her lips were trembling slightly, and I could almost see blood. After a long time, she suddenly said softly to Nian Shen: "The water flows, is it urgent?"

Nian Shen was stunned.

The next moment, I realized what she was asking.

At this time, I saw him standing there, his hands desperately pinching the corners of his clothes on both sides, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were bulging, and he couldn't even say a word.

Yang Jinyao didn't seem to feel anything, she still looked up at him and asked, "Is the water flowing fast?"

Nian Shen looked up at me as if he couldn't bear the pressure of this moment.

I turned pale and only nodded lightly at him.

He had to face it.

Wu Yanqiu fell into the water in order to save him, he couldn't even have the courage to face Mrs. Wu, all of them, he was a witness, and he had to give an explanation to everyone.

Nian Shen gritted his teeth, and finally opened his mouth and spit out a word: "Urgent." ”

After saying this, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and he staggered back as if he was about to collapse, if Yang Jinyao wanted to ask him anything again, he was afraid that even he would collapse. But after this question, Yang Jinyao didn't continue to ask, but slowly lowered her head again.

The long eyelashes covered her eyes, like a pair of bird's wings, which could obviously spread its wings and fly high, but at this time, it was the same as her eyes, glowing with death, and she couldn't fly anymore.

I was so uncomfortable that I slowly bent over to the edge of the bed and met her blank eyes.

"Jin Yao, if you feel uncomfortable, you can cry, or scold, or drop things. ”

“……”

"Don't hold yourself back like that. ”

“……”

"Kid, I can feel it all!"

Yang Jinyao lowered her eyes, at such a close distance, I could see that her face was yellow, it was completely bloodless, and there was no anger in the gloom, but even so, I couldn't see that there were tears on her face, probably all the tears could only flow into my heart, even when I raised my head to face me, there were no tears in those eyes.

There is only endless hollowness.

She said softly: "Sister Yan, do you know, I can't cry." ”

“……”

"I don't have the strength to cry, I don't have the strength to curse, I don't have the strength to throw things. ”

“……”

"I've just been thinking about him, from the day I met him, to the day he left me to go to Henan, every day, every look of him, I was thinking, I want to do my best, while I still remember, while he hasn't gone too far, remember all his appearances, and then remember. ”

“……”

"Otherwise, I'm afraid that in the future, I won't be able to remember. ”

“……”

"In that case, what should I do?"

Looking at her empty eyes, listening to her blank and helpless words, I only felt that my heart was like a knife, maybe the tears she couldn't shed were all in my heart, at this moment, I didn't even know whether I was heartache for Wu Yanqiu, or for the heartfelt woman in front of me, I could only grab her hand hard, and said sadly: "Jin Yao, Jin Yao, for the sake of the child, you have to endure no matter what, that is what he left you, and it is also his bloodline, you have to take care, did you hear it!"

In contrast to my grief, she was calm, but her eyes were full of blood-red shadows, and after a long time, she smiled at me: "I will." ”

“……”

"I'm going to keep going, wait for my child to grow up, and wait for him to come back. ”

“……”

"It's just that he doesn't come back for too long, he doesn't come back all the time. ”

“……”

"Otherwise, perhaps, I will be older than him......"

After holding on for so long, my love finally collapsed at this moment, hugging Yang Jinyao and crying, but she has been sitting there so indifferently, like a soulless puppet, her grief has been transmitted to everyone present, in her heart, but herself, has never shed a single tear from beginning to end.
