Chapter 276: Break and Stand
"Why? Didn't she say that the boss was the queen, and she wasn't the queen? Su Miaohu asked suspiciously.
"According to my second brother, because my father's mother died before the new emperor ascended the throne......"
"Your grandmother?" He was almost confused when he went around and around, and Su Miao strongly urged him to explain in the vernacular.
"It's not my grandmother, my father and the emperor are not born to Empress Wei Zhao, their biological mother is just a concubine, as for which one I haven't asked, it seems that it is not the daughter of the Liangdu Lishi family, and when my father and the emperor were very young, their mother died. My mother also told me that my father has been useless since he was a child, and even the eunuchs and maids in the palace can bully him, and he can't eat enough in the palace. Although my mother said that my father was useless, I think that a gloomy place like the palace is not only a good place for helpless children, but also for anyone. Aftertaste replied lightly.
Su Miaoshen nodded thoughtfully, paused, and asked again: "Didn't you say that the new emperor can only be from the Wei family?" ”
"Although the daughter of the Wei family has been the queen according to the agreement, the daughters of the Wei family are not necessarily all heroes among women, and their personalities and talents are different, and there is also the question of whether they can give birth, whether they can survive after giving birth, and how long they can live.
"......" The corners of Su Miao's mouth twitched fiercely, this person's attitude towards her became more and more arrogant, and she snorted, suddenly remembering that he hadn't answered her question just now, "You haven't said that Princess Rui is not a queen." Why did she become the head of Lingshui Palace? ”
"Hmm." After thinking for a while, he scratched his brows, "Because Empress Wei Zhao died before the old empress dowager passed away." My uncle's empress also died before he ascended the throne, probably because the Wei family had nothing else to use, so he gave it to her, and the former emperor has always been benevolent and filial, and also agreed to the old empress's proposal. Wei Xinyan is a very powerful woman, she herself is in charge of Lingshui Palace, not to mention, her brother born to the same mother. The eldest brother is Wei Yinghua, the prime minister of the dynasty, and the younger brother is Wei Yinglang, the famous king of Zhennan, who has great prestige in the court. It can be said that one person is above 10,000 people, and one-third of the military power of Yue Liang Kingdom is in the hands of the king of Zhennan, and the most interesting thing is that these two people obey Wei Xinyan's orders. More obedient to you than smoke. Therefore, the next time you meet her, you must take a detour, no, it's best not to even see it, Wei Xinyan came to Suzhou, and you must remember to notify me first when you go out next time. ”
Su Miao was silent, looked at him straight for a while, and suddenly asked:
"You're going to stay with me in Toyosu, right?"
"Of course!" Aftertaste nodded firmly. "Where are you, where am I!"
He replied without hesitation.
Su Miao smiled.
……
The lake is as calm as a mirror, and the shore is full of vegetation. The fragrance of wild flowers, the golden rays of sunlight shining on the earth, passing through the leaves, falling on the ground like a dot of light and shadow, birds fluttering their wings on the branches, everything seems so peaceful, the lake is sparkling, and the weeping willows are still clinging.
Lin Yan and Liang Min were sitting by the lake, and when they came out of the Snow Kite Tower, he kept pulling her forward, walking forward, and dragging her to this side when he passed by here. Halfway through, she had many opportunities to struggle, leave, and even quarrel with him, but when faced with his extremely dull and sad expression, she couldn't help but hold back the anxiety in her heart.
The husband and wife sat quietly by the lake, without saying a word.
"I actually know that the mother concubine is always embarrassing you," after a long time, Liang Min looked at the calm lake, and finally spoke, "But I didn't expect her to be so excessive." I thought that even if she hated you again, she would abide by the most basic etiquette, you are her daughter-in-law, not her subordinate, I really didn't expect that she would actually do it to you. ”
Lin Yan didn't make a sound.
"Since when?" He stubbornly asked, judging from her reaction today, this is definitely not the first time, he only knows that his mother doesn't like her, so he often looks for pleasure in his mouth, but this is the first time he does it in front of his wife, he is shocked and angry.
Lin Yan still didn't make a sound.
Liang Min felt more and more anxious and angry because of her silent attitude, frowned, and asked with some complaint:
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Tell you, what can you do?" His complaining tone aroused Lin Yan's anger, and she couldn't help but sneer, "Even if I tell you, can you still help me find it?" You are often not in the house, you don't come back once in the cold, you just want to rest quietly, I tell you this, not only is it useless, it will only make you more upset, why should I bother to give you and myself more depression? ”
When did her mother-in-law start beating and scolding her, her memory is very deep, although her mother-in-law was dissatisfied with her at first, but she only mocked a few words bitterly and harshly, or took a disregard for her to embarrass her, these are not unbearable, she has served her stepmother since she was a child, she doesn't care about these things at all, and after listening to it, forget it, her daily life is still quiet and quiet.
The real rise to unbearable levels came in the second year of marriage, when she still couldn't conceive an heir. At first, the mother-in-law did not mention the matter of concubine to her, completely regarded her as a non-existent object, the mother-in-law first proposed to Liang Min to take a concubine for him, but he firmly refused, at that time Liang Min did not realize that two years without an heir is a very serious matter, he only thought that the time had not come, but the mother-in-law couldn't wait, the mother-in-law called her alone, forced her to take a concubine for Liang Min to show virtue, she refused, so all kinds of beating and humiliation began.
At that time, Lin Yan's attitude was very firm, she knew that her mother-in-law's hand was forcing her to leave, if she didn't leave but couldn't help but fight back angrily or talk back, the result would be more in line with her mother-in-law's wishes, and the crime of confronting her mother-in-law would make her ruined and abandoned, and Liang Min, who might not mind in other places, would never tolerate his wife contradicting her mother, so she endured it. At that time, her determination was quite firm, she was determined not to divorce, and she was determined not to take a concubine for her husband. She tried to fight her mother-in-law in her own way, and she was still fighting at that time.
But I don't know when it started, gradually. The will was worn out, the anger and sadness began to discourage her, the daily struggle exhausted her, and at that time she did not realize that perhaps her patience had reached the limit, but she was still forcing herself to continue to endure, so all endurance was lost. In her husband's absence, she was exhausted. Liang Min is busy with official business, and when he comes back occasionally, he is not good at words. She didn't have so much energy to observe her abnormality, and she was afraid that she would annoy him by saying something, so I don't know when the husband and wife, who were already good at silence, became more and more estranged.
Lin Yan no longer remembered why she compromised to take a concubine for Liang Min last time. Maybe it's because she can't stand the persecution of her mother-in-law. Maybe she just wanted to test it once, and wanted to test it once if her husband, who she felt had begun to respect her like ice, still loved her as deeply as he did at the beginning, or maybe she just wanted to know if she was just a waste in his eyes when she couldn't have children, and what he actually wanted most was an heir.
Although she had fully thought about all the possibilities, the moment he really accepted it, she was completely devastated.
His reasoning was that he didn't want her to suffer anymore from not being able to have a child, and she thought she hadn't shown it. It turns out that it has already manifested.
However, even though the most painful and frightening thing for her was that she was unable to have children. But the most painful and frightening thing for her was that he abandoned her and no longer needed her, which he didn't understand.
It would be nice to tell him clearly, let him know that that was the most painful thing for her, and stop him from making wrong guesses, then maybe they would have taken a lot less detours.
Their hearts had not been on the same path since some, and by the time she finally realized it, it was too late.
Liang Min didn't know how to refute her, because he couldn't say anything to refute, he became more and more angry, caught between his mother who gave birth to him and his favorite wife, he was at a loss, and he was in a dilemma.
"I didn't expect my mother to treat you like that." He said a sentence that even he felt powerless, and this sentence was not salty or light, and it was very boring.
He didn't know that it would be so excessive, but he knew that it would be excessive, and he hoped that his wife would be patient with those things that were excessive but not excessive, and he could not deny that he was not a qualified husband after all.
Lin Yan didn't make a sound.
"Although I respect my father very much, and I don't hate Aunt Xiang, I really resented these two people when I was a child. I know that my father doesn't like my mother and concubine like Aunt Xiang, and after meeting you, I can gradually understand such feelings, my father is the prince, and it is not strange that there are many women and children, even if I am stripped of my position as the son of the world, even if I am left in the Rui Wang's Mansion and ignored, it is nothing, but he has almost fulfilled his responsibilities, so I don't hate him. But I always felt that my mother was very pitiful, and my father abandoned my mother for Aunt Xiang, even if there were many reasons, abandonment was abandonment. The mother concubine guards the huge Ruiwang Mansion alone, with a beautiful appearance, and no one knows how much unwillingness and resentment there is in her heart. I am the only son of my mother, because my father can't be her support, so I hope I can support her, I hope that with me by her side, no matter how much unwillingness and resentment she can let go, I hope that the Ruiwang Mansion without my father can still be happy and harmonious. Father abandoned my mother because of Aunt Xiang, I can't let my mother try the taste of being abandoned again because of you, so I hope you can be patient, I hope your forbearance and understanding can make your mother suddenly understand that we are a family one day, kindness and filial piety, peace and happiness are the greatest glory of a family. ”
"I understand." Lin Yan said softly.
Liang Min is very filial to his mother, and as his wife, she knows this all too well. In fact, in her opinion, Princess Rui did not treat him as her most beloved son, and she heard Princess Fang say that since Liang Min was born, Princess Rui has never hugged him, let alone raised and taught, all of which were done by the nurses and grandmothers. Before his father moved out of the palace and Liang Min was sent to the barracks, Liang Min could only step into the princess's courtyard when morning and dusk were set, and Princess Rui, the courtyard where Liang Min lived, never took the initiative to enter. However, the blood relationship is continuous, no matter how tricky and domineering Princess Rui is, no matter how bitter and cruel, no matter how frightening, she is always his most beloved biological mother, he loves her deeply and pities her, this love and pity is not reciprocated, because it is his mother.
Lin Yan understands such feelings, they are the same kind of people at this point, Lin Yan is also tolerating her father, who is called a "despicable villain", even if that father is really flattering, tricky, despicable and shameless, and even betrays her for his own interests, but he once really treated her daughter with love, so even if she never goes back to her parents' house, when her father has an accident, she will still beg Liang Min to help him. There is only one parent, and even if there can be many parents, there is only one biological parent, which is very precious. In order to maintain this precious emotion, she never said anything bad about the princess to Liang Min, and until now she doesn't think she did anything wrong at this point, she wants to help him maintain his most cherished mother-son relationship, although her efforts have always failed.
"That's enough." He said softly.
Lin Yan, who was deep in thought, came back to her senses and looked at him puzzled.
"Let's move out." He looked at her blankly and said in a firm tone.
Lin Yan was stunned.
There have been countless times in her heart that he can offer to take her to move out of the Rui Wangfu, and then she spurns this unfilial thought, but deep down she still harbors this longing. It was a foregone conclusion that she and Princess Rui would never be able to reconcile, and he had to make up his mind to make a choice.
He finally made his choice, but now.
She burst out laughing, because she thought it was funny. She craned her shoulders, lowered her head, and laughed. But smiling and laughing, tears actually rolled down the corners of her eyes, she was sure that it was not because he finally chose her that moved her to tears, why she cried, why did she feel so sad in her chest, she really didn't know.
She buried her head between her arms, fell on her knees, and wept silently, her shoulders trembling so badly that she looked very pitiful.
Liang Min looked at her for a while, his heart was extremely sad, he reached out and gently put it on her shoulder.
She didn't refuse.
After a while, he leaned forward, took advantage of the situation to encircle her within his range, leaned his head, and kissed her on her cloudy sideburns, silently comforting her.
She was still curled up in her arms, crying silently.
On the shore of the lake, the wind blows the willows and the grass is green......
Yipinlou.
At dusk, the golden red light shines in through the screen window mottled in, shining on Tong Ran, who is wearing a navy blue brocade robe, and the dazzling sunlight shines on the dark lines of the orchids on half of the robe, which is beautiful.
Tong Ran was leaning on a long mahogany table, his slender white hand wiping a silver lancet with great care.
Changsheng barged in with a smile, dressed in a muslin cloth, sat on the Taishi's chair loudly, looked at him and said:
"It is rumored outside, that year, in the Qin'an Chef King Competition, Su Dong lost to Tong Xinrong by one point and missed the Liangdu finals, and now the daughter of the Su family avenges her father, and tomorrow she will stage the most exciting peak showdown in the history of the King of Chefs with Tong Xinrong's son, the people who bet in the gambling house have exploded, you and Miss Su each have half of it, how about it, do you want to take the opportunity to lose, let the Tong family and the old man lose an old face that can be recorded in history, and let me make a fortune by the way?"
Tong Ran's expression was indifferent, he put the wiped knife back into the box, buckled the lid, and said lightly:
"No, I'll compete seriously tomorrow."
"Huh?" Changsheng raised his eyebrows, thought for a long time, held his cheeks with one hand, and sighed dejectedly, "Should I say that I am really looking forward to it, or should I say that it is really boring?" ”
Tong Ran ignored him, the deep darkness in Liu Ye's eyes flashed, and he had the chance to win. (To be continued.) )
