Chapter 21: Grief I
After escorting Jin Dian's body back to the Commander's Mansion, He Ran and Yun Ye went straight to the inner house,
Entering the main room, I saw Princess Qingyun sitting in front of several cases, her hands and feet were tied with silk ribbons, Jin Yu and two guards knelt in front of them and couldn't stop crying, and a few frightened maids whose faces changed color stood against the wall.
He Ran took two steps and knelt down and choked up: "Sister-in-law, forgive the sin, this is all the idea of the younger brother, and they have nothing to do with Jin Yu." β
Princess Qingyun's face was sad, and when she saw his hoarse voice and red eyes, she couldn't help but cry, and choked up: "Get up, you all go out." Jin Yu wiped away her tears and got up and retreated, and a few maids also went.
Seeing his sister-in-law, He Ran was sad and couldn't help it, and cried bitterly with his head on the ground: "The little brother is incompetent, and he will ...... in the end It's ...... Failed to ......"
"It's hard for you, if a person really wants death, who can stop it, third brother, help your second brother up." Princess Qingyun suppressed her sorrowful voice,
After He Ran was helped up, he and Yun Ye stood silently weeping,
Princess Qingyun said: "If you don't let me loosen your tie yet, you want to tie me up until now." β
"Sister-in-law forgives her sins, and my younger brother is delirious." He Ran stepped forward as he said and untied the rope, his sister-in-law is no better than her eldest brother's martial arts, and there is nothing to worry about with Yunye present.
Princess Qingyun moved her hands and feet, and asked with a sad face, "The body can be brought back to the house." β
Yun Ye replied "yes"
Princess Qingyun pointed to the seat and said to the two of them, "Sit down." β
When the two of them sat down, Princess Qingyun sighed and said, "He has already died early, he said goodbye to me when he went out just now, and I know that sooner or later there will be such a day, and I don't have so much mourning now, and the tears that should have fallen have fallen before." β
Imagining the tormented days of his brother and sister-in-law, He Ran's heart was like a knife, he couldn't help touching the ground with his head, and he couldn't cry and said: "It's all blame...... It's all to blame on the younger brother, if it weren't for me, an unfilial brother, out of thin air, my brother and sister-in-law wouldn't have to suffer, it was I who hurt the eldest brother, and I hurt the eldest brother. "His head was already bleeding from the cell, and now his forehead was bleeding again.
Princess Qingyun cried and got up to support him, choked up and reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense, we haven't complained about you, it's unique in the world that a brother can be like you, if you want to do this again, it will make me sad, and it will also cause your eldest brother to be at peace." β
He Ran didn't dare to cry anymore, and sat obediently and sobbed,
Princess Qingyun returned to her seat, took a handful of wine jugs from several cases, poured wine in the bottle, and after drinking, looked at He Ran and said, "Do you know why your eldest brother insists on killing himself." β
He Ran nodded, and Yun Ye saw that he had difficulty speaking, so he repeated the words that Jin Dian said before he died,
Princess Qingyun showed a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said to He Ran: "There is another layer that he didn't say, that is, to let the people of the world enjoy the blessings of the new deal as soon as possible, in fact, your eldest brother is the most compassionate to the people, the old father never wants to see him defect to the Yi country, Zhao Min's edict to transfer him to Jingqu has already arrived, he knows in his heart that as long as he goes back, he will definitely be assigned to fight against you again, he will not die for a day, you can't kill Zhao for a day, Zhao Guo's qi is exhausted, rather than let the people of Zhao suffer for a long time in the war in the Quartet, it is better to make a decision as soon as possible, Do you understand your big brother's hard work? β
He Ran nodded, he was struggling to speak at the moment, so he didn't just open his mouth and didn't say anything,
"You don't have to send the coffin back to Jingqu, just send it back to the fiefdom for burial."
She said very calmly, but it was this kind of Pingjin that exposed the implied dissatisfaction with Tianhe Gong in her heart, it stands to reason that in this case it is necessary to send the coffin of Jindian to her parents first, and whether she can be buried in the ancestral land after completing the memorial still needs to be discussed within the clan, although it is only a formality, but it is also indispensable, filial piety is an important reason why Jindian finally chose to kill herself, Princess Qingyun will inevitably have a grudge against Tianhe Gong in her heart,
"Obey my sister-in-law's orders." Yun Ye replied,
Princess Qingyun looked at the two of them, and a smile gradually appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said: "Your eldest brother and I have always been proud of your two brothers, not to mention the bravery of the third brother. Turning to He Ran as he spoke, "Although the second brother has made us bear a lot of heart, but every time I mention you, I will still laugh in the end, your eldest brother often says that there is endless fun with you, and my sister-in-law also thinks that it is true, your all kinds of nonsense is really undreamable, we all sigh how God created such a strange person as you, laughing and messing can stir up the world, and make the princes of all parties talk about it in color, your eldest brother also said a few days ago, if you can reunite with your two brothers, it should be the greatest luck in this life." β
He Ran was extremely sad in his heart at the moment, and he didn't have the heart to listen to what his sister-in-law said, so he only hung his head and wept.
Yun Ye opened his mouth and said: "Sister-in-law, please mourn, don't drown your sorrows with wine, I'm afraid it will hurt the liver." β
He Ran raised his head suddenly when he heard this, and saw that his sister-in-law had drunk a bottle again, he secretly screamed in his heart, according to normal feelings, at this time, his sister-in-law couldn't drink wine anyway, since the eldest brother committed suicide, his mind has been in a trance, and at this moment he suddenly remembered that his sister-in-law had just drunk a bottle, he hurriedly went over and picked up the wine jug, opened the lid and sniffed it, looked at his sister-in-law in horror and said, "This is poisonous wine,." β
Princess Qingyun said with a smile: "The second brother is really smart, I have prepared this wine for a long time, third brother, you have to learn more from the second brother in the future, if you have been so honest, you will have to be bullied by him for the rest of your life." β
Yun Ye's intestines were blue, seeing his sister-in-law drinking, he was only worried that drinking at this time would hurt his body, he didn't expect that the wine would be poisonous, he knelt down in front of several cases, and said urgently: "Sister-in-law, you can't die, the death of the eldest brother has made the second brother hate me so much, and if my sister-in-law kills herself again, he must kill me." In a hurry, he hoped that saying this would arouse his sister-in-law's desire to survive, and the honest man's idea was too naΓ―ve.
He Ran shouted, "Come and find a healer." β
Yun Ye jumped up and ran out without saying a word,
Princess Qingyun shook her head at He Ran, and said with pity in her eyes: "The second brother is a smart person, he should know that no one can save his sister-in-law, a person who will die, even if he saves him for a while, he can't save a lifetime, and besides, this poison has penetrated deep into his heart, it's too late, you can't let me suffer from the medicine stone when I die." β
He Ran knelt on the ground and cried bitterly: "Sister-in-law, doesn't she care about my nieces and nephews, and who will pity them when my brothers and sisters-in-law are gone." β
Princess Qingyun looked sad and said: "I really can't rest assured of them, but how can I bear to let your eldest brother be lonely under the Nine Springs, he is a lively person, and he can't take care of himself, I must accompany him." β
He Ran looked at her with teary eyes and said, "I'll go, didn't my sister-in-law say that my eldest brother likes to hear me laugh the most, as long as my sister-in-law doesn't die, my younger brother will accompany my eldest brother." β
Princess Qingyun stroked his head with great pity and said, "It's nonsense again, what should you do if you go to the group of wives in the valley." Said with a smile of relief on his face, "Xi Yao and I have been good since childhood, I have always regarded me as my own sister, and I also regard her as my own sister, originally I have always been sad for her misfortune, I feel that her life is too bitter, I don't want God to pity her, I sent you to her, you don't know how happy I am for her, treat her well, as for your nieces and nephews, there are many relatives in the house, even if others treat them poorly, you two brothers and Xi Yao will not treat them poorly, I can rest assured." β
Seeing that she bit her lip, she was already shaking, He Ran burst into tears, and said sadly: "Why are my brothers and sisters-in-law so ruthless, I only have two of you relatives in the world, and now that they are gone, how can I bear it." β
Princess Qingyun looked at him lovingly and said, "Good brother, you are destined to be a person who does great things, don't be too sad, all the people are waiting for your relief." β
He Ran hissed and shouted: "I don't care, what does it matter to me whether they live or die, I just want my sister-in-law to live." β
Princess Qingyun covered her chest with her hands, obviously poisonous, and she begged with her eyes: "Don't be rash, otherwise your eldest brother will die in vain, and you have to let him rest at ease underground." β
He Ran knew that most of her sister-in-law couldn't be saved, and she was afraid that she would die and would be blind, so she hurriedly said: "Sister-in-law, rest assured, sister-in-law, don't worry, I will try my best to benefit the people, sister-in-law must insist, Xi Yao said that she would come to welcome her brother and sister-in-law to Zangxian Valley, how can sister-in-law have to meet her in order to not be a sister-in-law, and in the future, sister-in-law will insist on accompanying the eldest brother, and we will not stop it." β
Princess Qingyun shook her head and said, "I can't wait, you ...... for me" Speaking of this, her breath gradually faded, and her body paused softly,
