Chapter 52: Rushing to Joy Fails

The third day of Empress Qin's coma was the day of the wedding of the lord of Yichuan County. Even if you are coming to rejoice, you can't have any elders to preside over it. So, Su took Li Ju and hurriedly left the Lizheng Hall and returned to the other courtyard to give the marriage. Before leaving, Li Ju saw Li Hui and the county lord of Changning kneeling in the corner in a daze, and he really felt pity in his heart, so he took the two of them out.

He didn't know what Li Qianniang had done, and he didn't know how many people were concerned about her marriage, so he said to his little cousin worriedly: "If Qianniang's marriage can really make grandmother happy, then it would be better." Otherwise, she would have suffered so many grievances in vain. My brother has nothing left except the name of Xun Guogong, and he can't support her anything. Now that Grandpa has happened to this again, Grandpa's anger will flare up sooner or later. Even if my grandfather doesn't condemn her, A-Niang and I will no longer be shameless to stay in Chang'an, and we will leave her alone in the future......"

Li Hui listened to him babble a lot, and knew that he actually meant to entrust him. But he and Li Qianniang have already formed a grudge, how can they pretend to agree? So, he said lightly: "Don't worry, cousin. Since it is the family that the mother of the world has chosen thousands of people, she must be very good to her. is what kind of grievance, and the elders make decisions for her. ”

Li Ju naturally heard the estrangement in his words, so he had to smile helplessly: "You are right." After all, she is a clan girl, as long as she is willing to live well, no one dares to bully her at will. But if she doesn't change her obsession, then she is to blame. ”

Li Ju's wedding had just been held in the courtyard, and the festive decorations hung at that time had not yet been taken off, and there was no need to rearrange them. Only the courtyard where Li Qianniang lives has added a lot of pendants, paper-cuts, and Huasheng, which is particularly joyful. Before Su Shi could sit down and rest for a while, he called the steward in the courtyard and asked about the wedding preparations one by one.

I heard the report from the steward that when the county lord of Yichuan learned that the marriage was irreversible, he made a lot of trouble one after another, and even took the scissors to kill himself - Su Shi didn't even blink, and smiled faintly: "Can you comb your makeup now?" It's not too early, but she can't be allowed to be so willful. ”

Li Ju was stunned and speechless for a while; Li Hui had no interest in this matter and wandered out of the world. Only the county lord of Changning suddenly came to his senses, took Li Hui and said: "Great Mother, let's go and take a look at my cousin and persuade her." Today is her big day, and she can't miss a good time because of her temper. ”

Su Shi bowed his head: "Good boy, if your sister speaks, she may be able to listen." As if she never knew that every time Li Qianniang saw the county lord of Changning, it was difficult to hide her jealousy and jealousy in her eyes.

When the maidservant girl mentioned "The lady is here" outside, Li Qianniang almost pushed away the Xi Niang who was combing her hair with all her might, rushed over, and knelt down in front of the door: "Auntie! It's wrong! Don't dare anymore!! Please beg Niang, forgive me! I did something wrong this time!! But...... But the son is only deceived by people! ”

When she raised her head, she realized that it was Li Hui and the county lord of Changning who were standing by the door! At this time, the tears had already made her heavy makeup cry, and the powder on her face was washed one by one, which looked ridiculous. Her face suddenly distorted, and the jealousy and resentment in her eyes could no longer be concealed.

I saw her jump up from the ground and pounce on the county lord of Changning: "You guys came to see my joke?!" Yes!! ”

Li Hui grabbed the county lord of Changning to the side, and taught her to pounce into the air and fall heavily to the ground. Once again, she succeeded in provoking his anger: "Hoodwinked?!" I don't think so! You just think you deserve a better husband, a richer dowry, and a more unscrupulous life, so when you see the bait, you happily jump into someone else's trap! It's ridiculous, you don't believe in the eyes of the great mother who raised you, but believe in strangers you have never met!! For the sake of the benefits promised by others, you can't wait to jump out, wanting to harm your grandfather and brother so that there is no place to turn over?! ”

Of course, Li Song, the father of the great world, is not a good person, and what he has done is simply outrageous - but Li Qianniang, who betrayed and even sold others for profit, is also equally hateful! She never had any pity for those innocent lives, but handed them over with her family in exchange for her own interests!

"Brother, is such a person a 'white-eyed wolf' who can't be raised?" The county lord of Changning smiled coldly, "The Great Mother worked hard to raise her, and this is how she repaid the Great Mother?!" It's shameless! ”

Li Qianniang's eyes widened slightly, as if she was surprised that he could guess the facts. However, the next moment, she stared at the county lord of Changning fiercely, and shouted almost frantically: "Isn't it all his fault?!" If it weren't for his frenzied rebellion, I would be the lord of the county today, and I would be the princess tomorrow! And you—you can only kneel before me to please me, and get a little out of my fingers! Instead of showing off in front of me!! If it weren't for him, how could I be where I am now?! ”

"It's also my grandfather's granddaughter, why can I only marry someone like this?! Xuancheng and Xin'an, they are just the daughters of concubines, but everyone looks up to them!! Why! I'm not convinced! I'm not convinced!! My grandfather is the eldest son!! These should have been mine! Whoever I have my crush on, no one will refuse me! If I were the lord of the county, if I were a princess, would the prince still reject me?! Even without him, the Gaomen family in Chang'an City will scramble to be the first!! ”

"Changning! Your qiē should have been mine!! It's mine!!! It's all him—it's all he who ruined this qiē!! I just want to earn back what I deserve!! ”

Looking at the girl in front of him with a distorted face and on the verge of madness, the county lord of Changning took a few steps back in disgust: "Crazy." ”

There is no doubt that these remarks are already "great rebellion", and Li Hui has nothing to say for a while. With such people, it is superfluous to say anything. She didn't think she had done anything wrong at all, and admitting her mistake with a panicked face was just an expedient measure. As to who had deceived her, he frowned slightly, but he was not entirely sure—after all, how could such a promise be made if this person was not of high standing enough? How can you make Li Qianniang believe it?

"Akane Niang." Su Shi didn't know when he came to the door, squatted down, and gently wiped Li Qianniang's tears, "It turns out that you dislike your background so much, and you don't like us for not being able to get you a better marriage." I really think it's a pity that I didn't teach you well. Your temperament is really similar to your grandfather...... It's too similar...... Selfish, ruthless and unrighteous to the extreme. I can finally understand how Ah Jia, as a mother, feels when she faces her son who can't become a child. ”

Li Qianniang was stunned, and then heard Su Shi say again: "Well, since you dislike us so much, you can have nothing to do with us after you get married." Otherwise, if you insist on not marrying, follow us back to Qianzhou. Until your temperament improves, I will definitely not promise you any more marriage. You have been accompanying me to recite and copy the scriptures, and pay for your grandpa's sins. ”

"How? Are you going to get married? Or do you want to go with us? ”

Li Qianniang's face became whiter and whiter, and finally it was the same color as the lead powder washed away on her face. She looked at Su Shi blankly, as if for the first time she realized what a powerful person her mother-in-law was. And she has always been stupid, treating her as a delicate flower that is extremely gentle and has no opinions. Li Hui and the county lord of Changning are also full of respect, the mother of the great world can calm Li Qianniang down in a few words, forcing her to marry obediently, how clever is the means?

"I ...... Marriage ...... My son rejoiced for his grandmother......" Li Qianniang muttered, trembling all over, almost lying on the ground.

Su Shi slowly stood up and looked at her with lowered eyes: "After more than ten years of mother-daughter relationship, I will tell you the last few words - silly child, the promise of strangers is untrustworthy." In this world, smart people abound, you are just ordinary beings, don't try to take anything from their fingers. Live your little life well and don't get involved in anything else. ”

“…… I see. ”

Li Hui took the county lord of Changning and left Li Qianniang's courtyard far away. The little guy looked back and said, "Brother, does she really understand?" How do I think she is still cheating on the Great Mother? ”

"The Great Mother has done her best, whether she understands it or not, she will have to swallow the ups and downs in the future." Li Hui replied, "Yue Niang, don't take what she said to heart. Did you hear what your grandmother told Aunt Anxing? 'You can only be willful, not reckless', even if you are a princess of the heavenly family, you can't do anything wrong. ”

So, what Princess Anxing did, did grandmother also notice the clues? So deliberately warned her? Is this incident inextricably linked with Princess Anxing? Why did she do such a profitless thing? Could it be that it is also like the stupid little family last time, "speculating on the will" without authorization? No, she couldn't be!

"But......" The county lord of Changning tilted his little head, "Grandmother said to me alone, 'Yue Niang, you don't have to wronged yourself in the future, just keep it like now.'" You can't learn from your grandmother, you don't have to learn from your mother, you don't have to learn from your aunts. Now that's for the best. Grandmother meant that I didn't have to be like them...... Can they think of anything, can they do anything, as if nothing is difficult for them? ”

Li Hui suddenly stopped, and his expression became complicated: "No, Yue Niang." What Grandmother meant was that you could do whatever you wanted – without going overboard. Within the scope of your willfulness, you will be willful, because you will be the eldest princess in the future, and you don't have to be wronged, you don't have to be cautious, and you don't have to be exhausted. She wants you to live like your name in this life, and be happy all the time. It turned out that the grandmother, who was known as a generation of virtuous queens, was not without pain in her heart. However, she has always hidden these pains in her heart, and she has no flaws. It wasn't until he was dying that he revealed the slightest.

Also, who has no bitterness in his heart, and who has no grievance in his heart? Then it depends on how you will deal with these sufferings and how you will hide these grievances. Living in bitterness is also a way of living, and living in the midst of suffering is also a way of living—and perhaps there are other ways of living, waiting for him to look for it carefully.

The change is just beginning. Nine points of life, and one point of luck in hand, will make a difference in their future.

In the early morning of the second day after the wedding of the lord of Yichuan County, Queen Qin died. The saint personally drew up a nickname for her, "Wende".

In accordance with her dying instructions, the saint issued an edict: all officials and edicts in Beijing should enter the palace to mourn for seven days; The civil national mourning period is 30 days, marriage and music and dance are prohibited, and it is forbidden to enjoy it; The official eunuch mourns for 60 days, and it is forbidden to marry, dance, and drink and feast.
