Mo Chapter 18
After the decree of the princes to give marriage, the date of the wedding was also set. Wang Yinshu's wedding date is set for the second day of August, and Liu Ruowei and Zhang Sumo's wedding date is set for August 20. But because they are all side concubines, they won't make a big deal.
It's late September, and the day of divorce is getting closer. The Sun and Wang families are related by marriage, so Princess Sun and General Sun's wife are helping Mrs. Wang.
On that day, Sun Lumin asked Sun Luyuan to go to see Wang Yinshu, and she thought that she would go in two days. But it happened that Granny Bai Lu sent a letter to her to go back to Taoyuan Village, which delayed some time. Therefore, on the second day after returning from Taoyuan Village, she took Sun Lumin to Wang's house to read Wang Yinshu.
Because it was not a child, Sun Lumin could not accompany Sun Luyuan to visit Wang Yinshu in the backyard. So he stayed in the front yard to drink tea with Uncle Wang, and asked Sun Luyuan to read Wang Yinshu by himself.
Before leaving, Aunt Wang took Sun Luyuan's hand and begged her to help persuade Wang Yinshu. Sun Luyuan should be down.
Sun Luyuan has been dealing with herbs for a long time, and he is extremely sensitive to the taste of medicine. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she smelled a smell of herbs that seemed to be absent.
Wang Yinshu's maid Tao Yao saw Sun Luyuan, as if she had seen the dawn, and her eyes lit up. trotted a few steps, plopped down in front of Sun Luyuan, and said, "Miss Sun, you persuade my young lady." ”
"Tao Yao, you get up first. What happened to Sister Otoshu? Sun Luyuan asked softly.
Yun Jin, who was standing behind Sun Luyuan, stepped forward in time, helped Tao Yao up, and comforted him in a low voice, "Sister Tao Yao, don't cry." My young lady regards Miss Wang as her own sister and will not care. ”
Tao Yao nodded, and whispered while crying.
It turned out that Wang Yinshu fainted after receiving the holy decree. After waking up, she went to beg Lord Wang and Mrs. Wang, she didn't want to marry the fifth prince Feng Nanshuo. But what can they do, the emperor's decree, they have to obediently accept the decree.
Wang Yinshu knew that there was no hope, so he went on a hunger strike to clarify his ambition. Mrs. Wang cried and persuaded, but she did not waver in the slightest.
Until that Zhang Sumo came to see the young lady and said a few words to her. The young lady actually began to eat, and the lady was very happy, and went to Zhang's mansion to thank her. But who would have thought that the young lady threw herself into the river that night. If it hadn't been for the slave maid who found out earlier, I'm afraid..."
Speaking of this, Tao Yao's tears couldn't be stopped, and her throat was choked with crying. Yun Jin held her with one hand and stroked her back with the other to help her calm down.
"Zhang Sumo, what did her sister of the homophone book say?"
"This slave doesn't know. Miss Sun: "Tao Yao wants to kneel down for Sun Luyuan again."
Fortunately, Sun Luyuan's hands were quick and he helped her, "Tao Yao has something to say, it doesn't have to be like this." ”
"Miss Sun, my young lady has not spoken or slept since she woke up from falling into the water. I didn't eat or drink medicine, so I cried silently all the time. Can you please persuade my young lady. ”
Sun Luyuan sighed lightly and said, "In the red dust, we are all laymen, and everything is because of a love word. I understand, how could Sister Yinshu not understand, she just didn't want to figure it out. Forget it, boiled medicine? Give it to me. ”
Sun Luyuan stood at the door of Wang Yinshu's house with a bowl of medicine, where she had already heard a rapid cough.
Inside the room, Wang Yinshu was leaning on the head of the bed. His face was pale, his eyes were blank, and his thin ones had already taken off his image. Hearing a voice at the door, he turned his head stiffly, and his empty eyes didn't gather a little starlight until he saw that it was Sun Luyuan. A hoarse voice called out her nickname "Yuan'er"
Before Sun Luyuan entered the house, he had already thought about what Wang Yinshu would become, but the truth was far crueler than he imagined.
"Sister Yinshu" The medicine bowl in Sun Luyuan's hand fell to the ground with a bang, and the black medicinal juice splashed on her body without knowing it. She walked quickly to the bed and took the hand that had once stroked the white and slender Qin, but now Zou Baba.
The eyes were facing each other, there was no opening, only silent tears. In this way, the two of them looked at each other silently and cried for a long time.
"Sister Yinshu, why are you so troubled, the eldest brother will feel distressed when he knows it." Sun Luyuan was the first to speak, breaking the silence.
"He... Know.. I.. Married. Wang Yinshu asked intermittently.
"The prince's wedding, not to mention His Majesty's favor for the five princes, is a declaration to the entire Feng Dynasty." Sun Luyuan paused and continued, "Sister Yinshu, no matter what the result is, you shouldn't spoil your body, let alone seek death, there will be hope if you live." ”
"If you are alive, you must have hope?" Wang Yinshu smiled dismally, and said with a numb expression, "This is Your Majesty's order, I can keep Lu An's promise to come back and marry me except for death, what else can I do." ”
Sun Luyuan didn't say anything anymore, how could she understand the matter between them. So she handed the letter sent by Sun Lu'an to Sun's mansion to Wang Yinshu, "This is from him." With that, he got up and walked out of the house. She wanted to get the bowl of medicine again, and she also wanted to give Wang Yinshu a separate space for her and Sun Luan.
About a quarter of an hour later, Sun Luyuan came back again with a bowl of medicine. She saw Wang Yinshu hugging his knees and burying his head in his arms. The letter was casually discarded to the side of the bed, and the ink flowers soaked in tears were clearly visible on the letterhead.
Without speaking, she quietly walked to the bedside and picked up the letter. Some of the handwriting on it is blurred, but the general meaning is still clear. She glanced at it, and it was pretty much what she had imagined.
"Yuan'er, he doesn't want me anymore, he doesn't want me anymore." Wang Yinshu choked up.
Sun Luyuan didn't know what to say, so he could only silently put the bowl next to the bed. took Wang Yinshu and comforted her as she comforted herself when she was a child.
Wang Yinshu lay on Sun Luyuan's shoulder and cried, so many days of expectation and so many days of persistence, but all of them were destroyed after seeing a letter from his beloved.
Sun Luyuan patted Wang Yinshu on the back, she is not a child anymore, she can understand Wang Yinshu's thoughts, but she also knows the situation of her eldest brother. As courtiers, the only thing they can do in the face of the royal family is to submit. The eldest brother should also want to leave with Sister Yinshu, but he can't, behind him is the Sun family. Behind Sister Yinshu is the Wang family. How could he implicate the people of the two families because of the matter of the two people, he could only let go of the pain.
Actually, I know that he made me forget that he was against his will, because I could read between the lines his pain and struggle. I understood why he said that, but I couldn't help but feel sad. Yuan'er, is it true that our fate cannot be in our own hands? ”
Sun Luyuan didn't answer, she was also very confused. Will she be the next Wang Yinshu, marrying someone she doesn't love and has to marry.
"Yuan'er, have you been given marriage?" Wang Yinshu sat up straight, his face was still ugly, but his spirit was much better.
"Sister Yinshu, are you okay?"
"It's okay. He is right, there is the Wang family behind me, and if I seek death, the Wang family will be implicated. ”
"Now that you've figured it out, let's drink the medicine first." Sun Luyuan picked up the medicine bowl and stirred it with a spoon. Scooped up a spoonful and blew it, and handed it to Wang Yinshu's mouth.
Wang Yinshu burst out laughing, "What are you doing, when I'm a child?" I'll do it myself. ”
Sun Luyuan didn't force it, and handed the bowl and spoon to Wang Yinshu. "It's really nice to be able to laugh."
"What about you?" Wang Yinshu drank all the medicine in the bowl in three or two spoonfuls, wiped his mouth and asked.
"I, no."
"It's good if you don't have it, you still have a chance to be with your beloved." Wang Yinshu's eyes were mixed with envy and sincere blessings.
"Let's hope"
When Wang Yinshu fell asleep, Sun Luyuan took Yun Jin and left quietly.
Sun Lu Min was standing at the door of Wang's house waiting for Sun Luyuan, and when he saw her coming out, he greeted her and asked, "How is it?" Are you better? ”
Sun Luyuan nodded and asked rhetorically, "Why did you come out so early?" ”
"It's boring. Uncle Wang said that I was not interested, so I came out in advance. ”
"How?"
"I didn't mean, it's all right." Sun Luyuan asked puzzled.
"I'm talking about you."
"I.." Sun Luyuan chuckled, "What's wrong with me?" I'm fine. ”
"Really. I can know what is in your heart. Let's talk about it. ”
"You're not... You know it at a glance, you say it yourself. ”
"You girl" Sun Lumin tapped Sun Luyuan's forehead with the fan in his hand, and said, "Just choke me, I'm your brother, give me some face." Forget it, look at your unlucky appearance, I'll take you to a fun place. Turning his head, he said to Xiao Min, who was standing behind him, "Xiao Min, you take Yun Jin back to the house first." ”
"Good" Xiaomin is really obedient, and he really cherishes words like gold.
"Miss"
"Go ahead, it's okay." Sun Lu Yuan Chaoyun nodded.
Yun Jin also nodded, bowed his hand to the two of them, and followed Xiao Min to leave first.
"Yun Jin, this girl, what's the situation? We're mothers and mothers, and she has a look like I'm going to sell you. Sun Lumin expressed dissatisfaction with Yun Jin's reluctance.
Sun Luyuan didn't speak, and patted Sun Lumin's shoulder. Leave the gate of the palace first.
