Chapter 485: Mo Liu'er
On May 15, 421 years of Yuguo, His Royal Highness Shen Ran was named King Yongping and buried in the imperial mausoleum with the regulation of his son-in-law.
The funeral road was paved with white, and the people could hear the terrible cries of the woman at the head.
At this time, Concubine Shugui had no intention of caring about the battles of the previous dynasty, she blamed two people for Shen Ran's death - one was the direct murderer who squeezed Shen Ran and made him exhausted, Mo Ruan, and the other was Shi Qingqian, who turned a blind eye to the seriously ill Shen Ran, and was hard-hearted.
After Shen Ran was buried, Concubine Shu asked herself to keep the spirit for three years. Originally, the prince died prematurely or died early, and the mother concubine did not need to go to the vigil for so long, and of course no one had ever made such a request. In the palace, mothers are more expensive than children, and when a child dies, sadness is sad, but no one is stupid enough to use their three years of youth to pay tribute.
The reason why Concubine Shu asked so much was not because she was completely tired of the intrigue between the harem and the previous dynasty, and she was deceitful. People whose hearts are dead, can they still expect her to stand up again and be prosperous again?
She did have a lot of misunderstanding about Shi Qingqian. After all, when Shen Ran was seriously ill at that time, Concubine Shu Guifei sent many people from Changle Palace to invite Shi Qingqi, but their replies were 'Lord Baoying refused to come', or, 'Lord Baoying County is not in the Hou Mansion, and the slaves and maids can't find her' and so on. Concubine Shu would never know that it was her pillow person who stopped all this and watched Shen Ran die step by step.
This matter can be regarded as the end of it.
Prime Minister's house.
An ordinary carriage came from a distance, the wheels were uneven, and there was a "squeak" sound when walking on the road, and it was easy to stop in front of the prime minister's mansion, and a little maid jumped down first.
The carriage was so broken that she didn't even have a footstool, and the maid had no choice but to stretch out her hand, "Niangniang, we're at the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
The man in the carriage stepped out, and the queen's slightly haggard face was visible under the hood of the black cloak.
With a look of disgust, she put her hand into the maid's hand, and was eager to get out of the stinking and broken carriage. She used to be the lord of the six palaces, and she always sat in the Fengluan frame, and she had to be followed by more than ten people's honor guards. But now she has to hide in this stinky grain, grass, cart and horse when she leaves the palace, and she dodges Yu Linwei's inquiries like a thief, so she finally escaped.
Aggrieved? Grievance.
Ningshou Palace's food and salary had been cut off for several days, and she had eaten coarse tea and light rice for many days. Since Shen Xuan's fall, although Shen Lun did not directly dispose of the queen, he cut off a lot of things and food in Ningshou Palace, as the queen, even if she existed in name only, but her life was not as comfortable as a slave.
She couldn't bear it anymore and wrote countless letters asking for help, and today Mo Ruan finally arranged for someone to bring her out of that terrible cage.
"Second Miss, the prime minister has been waiting for you for a long time." At the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, standing was Zhang Zhong, the old housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who had been his attendant since Mo Ruan was very young, and he was naturally very familiar with Mo Ruan's sister.
It's been too long since I've escaped from the palace and run to the Prime Minister's Mansion with this mentality, especially Zhang Zhong's sentence of 'Second Miss', which only made her heart tremble, and the queen really had a feeling in her heart that she was finally going home, and her nose was sour, "Uncle Zhang...... It's so late, it's really hard for you to wait here for the main palace...... I did. ”
"Second Miss, don't talk about this, hurry up and enter the house." Zhang Zhong smiled and walked in with the queen.
A 'second miss', a self-title that replaces 'Bengong', is enough to prove everything - from this moment on, she is no longer a queen, she doesn't have to go to the palace to bear the grievances of being snubbed and even hated by her husband, she will only be the second miss of the Mo family in the future. It's business as usual.
"Xiao Liu'er, I'm back."
'Liu'er' is the queen's maiden name, and when she was a girl in the Mo family, everyone would call her Mo Liu'er. She hadn't heard of this title for too long, so when she heard it, she instantly felt the urge to cry.
Mo Ruan sat at the table and tasted tea, and when she saw Mo Liu'er walking in, she didn't react too much, but just poured a cup of tea for her, as if it was really her brother waiting for her sister to come back.
Mo Liu'er's footsteps trembled slightly, and finally rushed forward in two or three steps, she fell directly to Mo Ruan's side, fell on his lap and cried bitterly: "Woo woo...... Brother, Xiao Liu'er is back...... Little Liu'er is back! ”
will remember that when they got married, the Mo family cried and were dazzled, and they all said that if they went to say goodbye, they would never be able to meet 'Xiao Liu'er' again, but they didn't want Mo Liu'er, who had taken off her identity as a queen, to come back. Whether it's beautiful or depressed, it's more reassuring when you come back.
"Okay, okay, why are you still crying when you go home," Mo Ruan helplessly helped Mo Liu'er up from the ground.
At this moment, putting aside those identities, Mo Ruan looked at Mo Liu'er with more brotherly love in his eyes. Sometimes he is moved in his heart, if he doesn't have so many wants, is it a satisfying ending to spend his life so plainly? But now, the Mo family has no room for maneuver......
If you give up now, then the Mo family really has no chance.
"Brother, what should I do......" Mo Liu'er wiped the tears from her face and sat helplessly in her chair, "Tomorrow morning, the emperor will definitely find that I am gone." ”
Mo Ruan's deep sunken eyes suddenly turned cold, and his eyes were like cold knives, "So what, do you really think that in this situation, the emperor will send people to search for you with all his might?" ”
Mo Liu'er hung her head. She knew that she would never do, and for Shen Lun to disappear, she could only be out of sight and out of mind. Maybe Shen Lun would have wished that she had run away by herself, and it would save him the trouble of dealing with her again.
I suddenly felt a little sad in my heart, and after so many years of marriage, I finally ended up like this.
"So, what are we going to do in the future?" Mo Liu'er continued to ask, "Shen Ran's sick son is dead, and now there is only one prince left in the court, this Shen Mi's position as the crown prince is settled, if he sits on the throne of the prince, he will definitely take action against our Mo family...... ...... then"
"Then, don't give that Shen Mi a chance to sit on the throne of the crown prince!" Mo Ruan said.
Mo Liu'er looked at Mo Ruan deeply, she didn't understand, or rather, she didn't dare to guess what he meant, "Brother...... What do you mean by that? ”
"I've sent a message to Po Li Feige," Mo Ruan's face pulled out a strange smile, "He will return to Beijing in a few days, and then it will be the day when we will fight back!" ”
