Chapter 218: Empress Kuang
"County Lord, the hour is almost up." Shangguan came in and said.
"Hmm." Zhu Qingmei was still red-eyed.
Immediately, someone came in with a red hijab, followed by her mother, Princess Li.
Li Shi sat down beside her, held her hand and looked at her carefully, and after a while, he said solemnly: "In the future, whenever something happens, you will have to rely on yourself." ”
"I know."
"You can't be so willful."
"Hmm."
"It can be seen that the second prince really likes you, but what a woman can keep a man's heart for a long time is her thoughtfulness and quality, not youth and lust/appearance, I hope you can remember this sentence after you get there."
"Yes."
Someone came in again and said, "County Lord, please get on the sedan chair." ”
Ah, so fast, Zhu Qingmei immediately hugged Li tightly.
Li also hugged her. Both began to cry.
"Come on, kid, you have to say goodbye to you for a thousand miles, let's see you next year." Li said that he used a handkerchief to help her wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Immediately, the person who came in with a hijab covered her with a red hijab, and the other two maids immediately came forward to help her to say goodbye to her parents and relatives and friends one by one, and then went out of the pavilion and entered the sedan chair.
She cried again when the palanquin was lifted and the gongs and drums sounded, but the noise outside drowned out her sad cry.
Since then, the end of the world is slim, and it is difficult to see the old people.
She didn't know if Yan Jinxuan was there before she got into the sedan chair, and she suddenly remembered the way he smiled sincerely at her when he said goodbye to her in the room earlier.
"Goodbye, Lord Yan!" She said to herself.
She didn't know why she had to say this so solemnly at this moment.
In fact, Yan Jinxuan was at the scene before she got into the sedan chair. And it wasn't until she got into the sedan chair that she watched her for a long time. He thought she would be very happy today, but the scene he saw was very different, and his heart was sad for a moment, for the eleven years that they had been strangers to passers-by.
If you go back in time, will there be a different ending? He knew that he had done a lot in those eleven years, but he didn't want to bother with such useless assumptions.
But anything that is not done from the bottom of your heart is nothing more than repeated proof of 'not loving enough' in the end, so there is nothing to regret.
That night, the Yan family sat together to talk about Yan Jinxuan and Su Shanyun's family affairs.
"Shanyun, does your second uncle know about you and your second master?" Mrs. Lu asked Su Shanyun.
"I don't know yet." Su Shanyun responded.
"Second brother, do you want to tell Su Shangshu first?" Mrs. Lu asked Yan Jinxuan.
"I'm going to pick a time to talk to him before I go to Island City." Yan Jinxuan said.
That's in the fifteen days.
"Okay." Mrs. Lu nodded.
The next morning. Su Shanyun returned to Su Mansion.
As soon as he stepped into the house, Feng took her hand and went to the room to talk.
is talking about Li He coming to the door some time ago to ask to see Su Shanyun.
Su Shanyun couldn't help but turn pale when she heard this.
His actions were too similar to those of his previous life.
Looks like she's going to have to be extra careful.
I don't know if he will come back. There was some apprehension in her heart.
Su Zizhao came back that afternoon, and the third prince, Zhu Rui, came with him.
They entered the door and went straight to the living room.
Feng hurriedly instructed the maids to bring the snacks and tea.
Su Shanyun went back to his room to read a book with interest.
When night fell, the maid ran in and said, "Miss, my lord asked you to go to the living room." ”
"Okay."
Su Shanyun tidied up her clothes and went to the living room with Mama Song.
"Long time no see. Miss Su. Before the third prince could wait for Su Shanyun to salute, he greeted her first.
"yes. More than half a year has passed in a blink of an eye. The three princes are not harmed? Su Shanyun said with a smile after saluting him.
"Pretty good, how about you?"
"I'm fine too, thank you!"
They looked at each other.
Because they already have their hearts. And their mood has changed, so there is only a faint care in their eyes and no tangled back then.
That's good.
Su Shanyun said in his heart.
"I heard that the queen has the day after tomorrow's birthday, right?" Su Zizhao asked the third prince.
It stands to reason that most of the high-ranking officials in the court know the queen's birthday, but Empress Kuang is an extremely low-key person, so it is not surprising that everyone does not know about this matter.
"Yes. However, the queen mother has always been frugal, so she saved a lot of birthday banquets, and even planned not to invite the uncle, but only invited the father-in-law. The third prince replied. His expression was a little more solemn when he talked about his mother.
"The queen is so well aware of the righteousness, she will definitely be able to bless her descendants and benefit thousands of generations!" Su Zizhao also said respectfully.
The third prince smiled.
"The children cultivated by Lord Guozhang are all noble, virtuous, and righteous, and they are really well educated!" Su Zizhao said again.
"Well, Lord Guozhang is indeed a Zheng Zheng character!" The three princes said one after another.
After the third prince left, Su Shanyun asked Su Zizhao: "Second uncle, can you tell me about the queen?" ”
She felt that there must be a lot to learn from a woman who could be respected by so many people, so she wanted to find out.
"Empress Kuang is beautiful and dignified, proficient in calligraphy, painting and female celebrity, gentle temperament, benevolent and virtuous, and is highly respected by the emperor...... Su Zizhao replied.
Su Shanyun fell into deep thought after listening.
Queen Kuang? How does this name seem to be familiar, Su Shanyun frowned and said secretly.
She thought about it for a moment, but she couldn't think of a reason.
"What's wrong? You don't know Queen Kuang, right? Su Zizhao asked curiously.
"Of course I don't know, it's just ...... Suddenly, it was as if I had heard about her somewhere. Su Shanyun said busily.
"It is estimated that it is from the mouths of the people, Queen Kuang's reputation among the people is excellent." Su Zizhao said with a smile.
No, she was sure she didn't hear it from the people. But she didn't say much, smiled and nodded.
That night, after the night was quiet, Su Shanyun suddenly remembered Queen Kuang in a half-dream.
She vaguely remembered that she had heard it in the winter of her previous life when she was fourteen years old, and she had no impression of what day it was, and it was told to Su Ziming by Lord Liu, the chief bookkeeper of the Zhan Mansion. She still remembered that they were standing outside the Dongli House in Su Mansion and looking at the drizzle in the sky. She was painting in the next door to Dongli at the time, so she could hear them clearly.
"Empress Kuang has passed away, and the funeral procession fills the entire long street." Lord Liu said, with regret in his voice.
"How so?" Su Ziming was surprised.
Lord Liu leaned close to his ear and said, "It was the concubine who did her hands and feet in the queen's health tea." ”
"Huh?" Su Ziming was taken aback again.
"I heard what Lord Shao Zhan Shiji said, and he told me not to publicize this matter."
"Which concubine is it?" Su Ziming asked softly.
"Concubine Shi." Lord Liu said.
"Huh?"
"The emperor has already disposed of her, but the emperor's spirit is very poor now, and it is estimated that he will not survive for a few years under this situation." Lord Liu said with a sigh.
Su Shanyun sat up suddenly.
Is this a real thing or a dream?
If that's true, that's what will happen this winter.
But should she meddle in this kind of thing? She knew very well that she was neither capable nor qualified to take care of the affairs of the harem.
Then think it's a dream, maybe it's a dream, she said to herself, and lie down and rest again.
But that was the mother of the third prince, a respected queen, how could she bear to know that she had such a catastrophe and not lend a hand?
Su Shanyun turned over, feeling a little complicated.
Thinking of Li He's incident again, it was even more difficult to sleep. (To be continued......)
