Chapter 101: Epilogue (Part II)

"You?" When Empress Dowager Zhu heard Princess Le'an's resolute words, she coughed violently, and after coughing, she looked at her daughter hatefully: "You are all disobedient seeds, I hurt you in vain, and I hurt you so much!" ”

"Mother, think about it, is your daughter a seed of disobedience, or is it the queen mother that you yourself did wrong? The Zhu family, how good is the Zhu family, it is necessary for you to maintain it so hard, mother, at the expense of falling out with your father, and now you want to threaten Your Majesty? Queen Mother, do you think that the Zhu family is respected and will not do anything wrong? At that time, the Zhu family will act recklessly and even ask for more rights, Queen Mother, do you think it will be good for you? Mother, mother, if you are clearer, why do you have to work so hard? ”

The tears in Princess Le'an's eyes fell, and she looked at the Empress Dowager Zhu, still refusing to let go.

Empress Dowager Zhu seemed to have been hit by something, leaned back on the chair, and then sighed: "I, I only have ......"

"Queen Mother, you have been wrong a long time ago, why don't you admit it? From the day you entered the palace, there was no support from the Zhu family, what you have is only your father, only your father! "And now, there is also the emperor, the biological son of the Empress Dowager Zhu.

Princess Le'an's words made Empress Dowager Zhu close her eyes and sigh loudly, Princess Le'an looked at her mother, and finally sighed after a long time: "Queen Mother, you are still resting, I'm leaving!" ”

Empress Dowager Zhu opened her eyes, looked at her daughter's back when she turned around, and felt a cold, the palace maid next to her as if she hadn't heard the dispute between their mother and daughter, stepped forward to cover Empress Dowager Zhu with a thin blanket, Empress Dowager Zhu wanted to talk to the palace maid, but didn't say anything.

Just looked down at his toes, the shoes he wore on his feet were still so exquisite, but this life has passed like this.

"You say, will she come back?" After a long time, the palace maid heard Empress Dowager Zhu ask this.

The palace maid felt strange before she said: "Yes, Princess Le'an is virtuous and filial, and she will definitely come back to visit the Queen Mother!" Empress Dowager Zhu muttered those two words, closed her eyes again, this life, this will be recorded in history as an infinitely enviable life, and the step into the palace gate is over. What the emperor wants is the queen, and now, what his son wants is just a queen mother, a queen mother who has a respected status but can't say anything.

The tears in Empress Dowager Zhu's eyes fell, dripping on the placket, the clothes were still luxurious, but this heart, at this moment, was finally dead!

After Qingtang and Dayong had several more hand-to-hand encounters, Dayong finally agreed to Qingtang's request and allowed them to send an embassy to negotiate peace. The team for the peace conference was sent to the capital by Liu Jinsong, and the defenders of the border pass will be handed over to the newcomers who led the reinforcements.

This made General Wu very dissatisfied: "For two years, General Liu, you have been with us at the border for two years, and you were born and died in the middle, but now, an edict asks you to abandon all this to escort the mission into Beijing, and even transfer the military power." Who doesn't know that the newcomers are not robbing military merits? ”

Liu Jinsong just smiled lightly: "This is also indispensable, all the benefits in the world can't be taken by me, otherwise, the DPRK will ...... it."

"What is there to listen to the words of those sour and rotten talents, I don't see them when we are fighting, and even chirp crookedly whether we have taken more military supplies. It's good at this moment, as soon as I heard that Qingtang was going to negotiate peace, I hurriedly sent someone to grab the credit, not to mention it, and I wanted to transfer you away. Is it all in vain for all the hard work of our people? ”

General Wu interrupted Liu Jinsong's words, and the smile on Liu Jinsong's face deepened: "No, don't forget, in addition to being a general who leads troops to fight, I am still a courtier!" ”

When the eldest princess of the dynasty is a concubine, this identity can attract enough attention, General Wu is not at ease, Liu Jinsong has already said with a straight face: "The new General Qin, I remember that their family has also produced generals, you have to cooperate with him, as for military merits, you go and tell you, I remember, I will never conceal it, let alone let the court not reward you!" ”

General Wu is here, the most important thing is for this matter, just as he was about to hug his fists and thank Liu Jinsong, someone came to report that General Qin was coming. Liu Jinsong invited someone to enter.

The Qin family is a family that once had a queen mother, and there were also princesses, but because the princess and the horse had a quarrel, the horse accidentally killed his wife, so that the son of heaven could not be trusted, and later the Qin family went to the battlefield to be able to seal the marquis again with military merits, but Qingtang and Dayong signed a mutual market, and agreed not to take the initiative to start the war, the Qin family declined slightly.

Although there have always been people in the army, they are only promoted step by step, otherwise Liu Jinsong would not have come to the border last time. This Qin general is in his early Chinese New Year's Eve, with a mustache on his lips, and it is not strange to see General Wu inside, and only nodded to General Wu Wen Xu: "General Wu also came to send General Liu?" ”

Before General Wu could answer, Liu Jinsong had already smiled lightly: "From the day the edict came down, I can no longer be called General Liu!" ”

"Xia Guan forgot, Liu Juma returned to Beijing this time, but he can be reunited with his wife and child, and he is deeply envious!" General Qin is as good as a stream, and such an answer reminds Liu Jinsong of his days in Beijing. Two years, these two years at the border, I have almost forgotten these vains and grievances, Yulin, are you thinking about me? I'm thinking about you, very, very much.

"Why are you in such a hurry, have you heard that your husband will follow the mission into Beijing?" Princess Qin looked at Yulin who ran in and asked her with a smile.

Yulin didn't have time to listen to the banter in Princess Qin's words, and almost impulsively grabbed Princess Qin's hand: "Sister, is it true this time?" Is he really coming back? ”

The princess of Qin Guo nodded, which deepened the smile on Yulin's face: "Great, Xiao Shu'er also complained that if she doesn't come back, she won't remember what Daddy looks like." Brother Xiaoliang said that he didn't believe his father, and he was better than his third brother-in-law! ”

"Why didn't you tell me when you said that, do you miss him? Would you love him to come back? Do you miss him? The joy in Yulin's heart also infected the princess of Qin, she asked Yulin with a smile, Yulin's face was crimson, and she called her sister and said, "You make fun of me!" ”

"I'm not making fun of you, I'm asking you seriously." Princess Qin's rare smile bent eyebrows, this kind of smile reminded Yulin of the past, and said softly: "Why don't I think about him?" The children are worried about it again, so what is my concern so much? ”

Acacia accumulates day by day, more than 700 days and nights, that is, more than 700 kinds of acacia, which is already heavy, making Yulin a little breathless, and now, this lovesickness can finally be relieved, and her husband will come back in a few days, what good news this is.

The smile on Yulin's lips was so sweet, the princess of Qin was just about to speak, Cheng Su'e had already come in with a stack of musicals, and when she saw Yulin in the hall, Cheng Su'e bowed and saluted. Yu Lin hurriedly said to the princess of Qin State: "Sister still has something to do here, so I won't bother." Well, I'm going back to pack up my things and move back to the palace! ”

Liu Jinsong wants to return to Beijing, then this so-called hostage day should be over, a trace of apology flashed in the eyes of the princess of Qin, Yulin noticed this trace of apology, did not say anything but smiled slightly, when passing by Cheng Su'e's side, the steps happened to collide with Cheng Su'e, and the book on the top of the head fell, Yulin looked down and saw that the chapter had been blown away by the wind, and there were several lines of big characters on it, Chen Moumou, in order to impeach the horse Liu Jinsong was greedy and did not let go of military power......

Yulin didn't see the words in the back, because Cheng Su'e had already picked up the seal, Princess Qin noticed that Cheng Su'e was deliberate, her eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, and when she saw Yulin turning her head to look at herself, Princess Qin said: "Go back, I said, I will protect you, it's not an empty word!" ”

Yulin was silent, and then said: "Sister, I know, but ......"

"It's nothing, courtiers are like this, it's also a rule, Yulin, you are a smart person, you should know that this is not the time for your husband to ask for guilt!" Princess Qin's words silenced Yulin, and then Yulin said, "Yes, I know!" ”

"You did it on purpose!" Seeing Yulin leave in silence, the princess of Qin said to Cheng Su'e.

"Yes, the minister thinks that this matter is not something that cannot be told to the eldest princess of Yongle!" Cheng Su'e has always confessed like this, which made the princess of Qin State silent, and then the princess of Qin State sighed: "Do you really think that Yulin knows nothing?" She just doesn't tell anyone. Don't do this kind of thing again! ”

After all, the princess of Qin still had mercy on Cheng Su'e, Cheng Su'e should be, the princess of Qin reached out to get those concerts, most of these concertos were impeached by each other, and it was difficult to return. The princess of Qin quickly flipped through these various movements, and the smile on her lips did not change, even if it was difficult to return, there would be a day when it could be solved!

Yulin returned to her residence, and that rapid heartbeat calmed down, and it all came to this point, how many of these ministers are really for the country? Don't they know that without a kingdom, they are nothing? No, why did you forget that the previous dynasty was happy and old, no, it's just the imperial court, not the Chen family as the emperor, there are also people with other surnames, change the emperor, isn't it still the same long live Shanhu, high-ranking officials Houlu?

Yulin laughed at herself, Xiao Wangshu had already run over: "Mother, I heard my sisters say that my father is coming back, is it true?" Yulin picked up her daughter and wiped her hands with a handkerchief: "Where did you go to play, this little dirty hand." Yes, Daddy is coming back, is our little Shu'er Gao happy? ”

"Are you really coming back?" Liu Fengying's voice was a little incredulous, and Yulin smiled: "Yes, Ah Song is coming back, and we should move back too." Although this palace is good, it is not our home! ”

"What I'm saying is that in this palace, if you want to talk about wealth and wealth, you have to say that the food and clothing are much more exquisite than outside, but it's not easy to go out once, let alone visit friends!" Liu Fengying said and opened her hands to Xiao Wangshu: "Come, let's go clean up together, Xiao Shu'er, do you want your father?" ”

"Yes!" Xiao Wangshu hugged Liu Fengying's neck intimately, and said to Liu Fengying: "Grandmother, we are going to tell my brother that my father is good-looking, and he is the best-looking person I have ever seen!" ”

The voices of the ancestors and grandchildren became farther and farther away, and Yulin sat down and sighed long, her husband was coming back, but this was not the end, but the beginning, it was the beginning of his will be an important minister of the court, otherwise, those ministers would not impeach him like this.

Looking at Cheng Su'e's expression, this is not the first time. Yulin gasped heavily, no matter what, it should come, it will always come, as long as his family works together, what are he afraid of?

Farewell to the emperor, and go to bid farewell to the Empress Dowager Zhu! This is the first time Yulin has visited the Empress Dowager Zhu after living in the palace for more than a year, the Empress Dowager Zhu leaned there, her eyes were already weak, and the Empress Dowager Zhu said after Yulin finished worshipping: "These children, but your horse is the most important, very good, and it is not in vain that I love you!" ”

"The Queen Mother treated her concubines well in the past, and the concubines always remember them!" Hearing Yulin's self-proclaimedness, Empress Dowager Zhu's cheeks twitched and said, "You are a smart kid and know what you want." It's nice that you have a mother like that, and you can grow like that! ”

"The concubine's mother died early, the concubine, I don't remember her!" Yulin's answer completely surprised the Empress Dowager Zhu, and she suddenly laughed: "Okay, it's really the royal daughter, such a cold heart and cold feelings, not the same at all!" ”

"The Queen Mother is also the royal daughter-in-law, the concubine bids farewell to the Queen Mother today, and I wish the Queen Mother a long life!" Yulin didn't take Empress Dowager Zhu's words to heart, and after standing up and saluting again, she didn't need Empress Dowager Zhu's signal, and had already withdrawn from the palace.

This is the last time Yulin saw the Empress Dowager Zhu, four years later the Empress Dowager Zhu died, called filial piety, according to her wishes, and did not bury her in the imperial mausoleum, and the mausoleum alone. When she is mentioned in the history books in the future, it is just the words of flowers, seventeen for the royal appointment, the same year with the grandest ceremony to marry and on the same day canonized as the queen, eighteen born Princess Le'an, a year later gave birth to the eldest son. After that, the son ascended the throne and was respected as the queen mother, and after six years of collapse for the queen mother, and for the twenty-eighth year of the queen. Filial piety is virtuous, often restrains the descendants, takes the initiative to let the family not want a title, and does not allow children to go out. It is a generation of virtuous queens. As for the truth, it can only be buried behind these dusts forever.

Yulin looked at everything familiar around her, touched it, and could touch the little rattle that Xiao Shu'er tucked under the mattress on the bed, took out the rattle, and said to her daughter after a while: "Are you so naughty?" Stuff the rattle under the mattress? ”

Xiao Wangshu couldn't remember that he had done this before, so he shook his head by touching his head: "Mother, it's not me, you definitely remember wrong!" ”

"Not you or who? If the maids had put it away, they would have cleaned it up! Yulin stuffed the rattle into her daughter's hand, and Xiao Wangshu put the rattle aside in disgust: "Mother, I'm going to find my grandfather!" ”

"Didn't your grandfather tell you just now that he wanted you to go with him, and you said that you wanted to come back and help me pack my things, why are you going to look for your grandfather now?" Yulin pinched her daughter's small chin to tease her.

Xiao Wangshu shook his head: "Because I heard that Ah Gong has delicious food there!" Yulin patted her daughter's head, asked the maid to take Xiao Wangshu to find King Wu, and began to put those things in categories, looking at this house that was exactly the same as before, Yulin couldn't help but smile lightly, this year or so, my father misses himself very much, otherwise, this house will not be the same as the original.

"Princess, you don't know, the prince won't let us tell you, I'm worried about you, since you moved to the palace, the prince has to come to you every day, let the slaves and maids clean up here, and the flowers are changed on time at four o'clock!" The maid already said with a smile.

Yulin couldn't help but purse her lips and smile, her own father, it's strange not to do this. In a few days, the husband will come back, and the missing piece of my heart can be filled. The family is together, the heart is together, and no matter how much attack there is, there is no fear.

If you want to be a minister, who will not be attacked a few times. Yulin was happy in her heart, with a sweet smile on her lips, and she was already humming a minor tune unconsciously.

After listening to it for a while, the maid smiled and said, "The princess can hum tea tunes, I think she listened to the singers sing in the palace." This is the song of the slave's hometown. Slaves and maids can hum too! As she spoke, the maid cleared her throat and began to sing.

A leisurely tea tune, let the former six princes go along the mist to find this singing person, and since then his heart has fallen! King Wu took his grandchildren to the gate of the courtyard, and when he heard the tea-picking tune sung by the maid in the house, King Wu couldn't help but let the waiter stop.

The tea-picking tune was very short, and the maid had finished singing, and Yulin's approving voice came. King Wu asked the chamberlain to push him in, and said to Xiao Wangshu who was following him: "Your father is back, look at your mother's happiness, let people sing this!" ”

"Isn't Grandpa happy?" Xiao Wangshu's rhetorical question made King Wu smile, and then King Wu nodded: "Happy, of course I'm happy, I, as long as your mother and you are happy, I'm happy!" ”

"Well, Grandpa, my sister said that my father is better looking than my third uncle, isn't that so?" Xiao Liu Liang has never forgotten this problem.

Yulin heard that she had come out of the house, so she picked up her son: "A good man, just remember this, it's all bad for your sister!" ”

"It's not that I taught it badly, it's that my brother is not good in the first place!" Xiao Wangshu protested loudly, which made Yulin and King Wu laugh, and in a few days, the family would be reunited.

In the next few days, Yulin almost counted the days, hoping that her husband could come to her eyes quickly, and she also wanted to go out of Beijing to greet her, but he did not return alone, but came back with the Qingtang Mission, and then there was the etiquette to welcome the Qingtang Mission, and she couldn't go to greet her.

Hearing Yulin say that she couldn't go to meet her father, Xiao Wangshu was very dissatisfied: "Why can't you go?" Mother, that's my father, not someone else's father, why can't I go? ”

Yulin had no choice but to hold her daughter in her arms and talk to her about various etiquette rules, so that Xiao Wangshu slowly calmed down.

The days are coming day by day, Liu Jinsong will enter Beijing today, after entering Beijing, he will first go to the palace, and accept the banquet of the Son of Heaven with the Qingtang delegation, and then there will be a series of things, and then he can go home.

At most, Yulin can only send people to wait at the palace gate, since this is the case, he simply does not send people to guard at the palace gate, anyway, he is not a child, and he will know the way home. But despite this, this heart can't be put down, since the morning, Yulin was in a trance, the maids came to report the matter, Yulin didn't remember what was reported.

Liu Fengying also came to King Wu's mansion early to wait for her son's return, and saw that Yulin was in a trance, so she took the initiative to take her grandchildren out to play. Let Yulin stay alone, so that Yulin can be quiet and quiet. This was a good intention, but in this way, Yulin felt even more anxious, and there were countless thoughts in his mind, although there were letters to and fro, but he would not tell the truth, and he didn't know if he was injured, I don't know if his face was injured, if there was a scar on his face, wouldn't he become an ugly monster?

If it becomes ugly, Xiao Wangshu doesn't know how sad he will be? Soon Yulin shook her head, no, he would be fine, standing in front of him with all his beards and tails, instead of thinking like himself.

"Princess, someone from the palace reported that the banquet in the palace has ended, and the horse was left behind by His Majesty to say a few words, and he will return soon!" The maid's voice interrupted Yulin's thoughts, Yulin snorted, thinking about going to the kitchen to prepare some more food, the banquet in the palace has always been full!

"Mother, Daddy is coming back! Does he remember me? Xiao Wangshu had already jumped in and ran to Yulin and asked seriously. Yulin bent down and pinched her daughter's face: "Your father, I will definitely remember you!" ”

"What about me, mother?" Liu Liang was unwilling to be lonely and squeezed in and asked.

"Remember, remember, you two, he must have remembered, just two baby bumps, there is no superfluous, how can he not remember?" Liu Fengying said with a smile, Liu Liang reached out and pulled Liu Fengying's shirt: "Grandmother, our father, are you very handsome!" ”

"Of course it's very handsome, if you're not handsome, how can you be a colt?" Liu Fengying answered her grandson's words with all questions, which made Yulin smile: "Mother-in-law, don't get too used to them!" ”

"Ah Song is back, my heart is happy!" The smile on Liu Fengying's face deepened. As soon as Yulin was about to say something, the maid came in and said, "Princess, the concubine has come out of the palace, and he will arrive at the mansion immediately!" ”

"Daddy's back!" Xiao Wangshu cheered and ran out, the maid hurriedly followed, and when she came back, she seemed to have been preparing for a long time, but it was as if she had never been ready. Yulin couldn't help but look at herself in the mirror, Liu Fengying had already said to her daughter-in-law: "Princess, if you don't welcome you out, it's nothing!" ”

No, how can you not welcome it out? Yulin hurriedly got up and walked outside, her steps were a little big, and she almost brought down the vase on the table. As soon as I walked out of the courtyard and turned the corridor, I saw Liu Jinsong coming over with his back one by one, I haven't seen him for more than two years, Liu Jinsong's face has been frosted, but a pair of eyes have not changed as before.

Liu Liang saw his mother coming over, and he had already shouted: "Mother, my sister is a liar, my father is not as good as my third aunt!" Yulin's footsteps had already stopped, and when she heard her son say this, she couldn't help but speed up a few steps to take him off her husband's shoulder: "Nonsense, your father and him, he is the best-looking!" ”

Although he is tanned a little now, he looks a little older, but at this moment, his husband is unprecedentedly good-looking in Yulin's eyes, he finally came back, standing in front of him like this, and from now on, he is still like that, with all beards and tails, and there is nothing missing!
