Chapter 259: Two or Three Things About Martyrdom
Early in the morning of the second day, Shen Bin personally came to visit Ying Shu and then drove to the mansion of the eldest princess of Zhaoming, Ying Shu was not very worried about this matter, after all, according to the wisdom of the eldest princess, she probably knew what Shen Bin was going to do as early as the day of the funeral. At the beginning, it was just the whole family acting for the outside to see, but now there is no need to act, and the mother and son naturally have a lot to say when they get together, and when they are all said, there will naturally be nothing left.
"Pack up your things, and when Grandpa Guo comes back, we should also move back to the princess's mansion." Ying Shu held the child in her arms, teasing the child with a small rattle, and commanded lightly.
Then he unconsciously remembered the question of what to name the child, thinking about it, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Jin Feng and Xiangli standing in front of him with solemn expressions, and Xiangli still held a newspaper in his hand.
"What's wrong?" The sixth sense made Ying Shu feel that she suddenly had an ominous premonition, that is, she put the child aside and got up to ask the two.
Xiangli looked unspeakable, she thought for a long time before stammering at Ying Shu, "Madam...... This, this is said, Your Majesty issued an order this morning to give the concubines of the king to be martyred for the king, and the eldest girl of our family is also among them......"
A feeling of dizziness hit, the world swirled, and everything that had finally calmed down changed in an instant. Ying Shu couldn't take care of the body that had just given birth, so she hurriedly ordered: "Prepare your clothes and carriages, I will enter the palace to see the queen." ”
Bumpy all the way to the palace, Ying Shu finally managed to hold back her patience and slowly guard the gate of Kunming Palace, and immediately knelt down at the door, "Concubine Wang, ask to see the queen." ”
Hearing this, the female envoy of the Empress Qian clan bowed to Ying Shu, "See Duchess Yongguo." The queen mother knew that the lady was coming, so she asked the lady to come in with the slaves. ”
Ying Shu nodded and entered the inner hall, and saw that Queen Qian was sitting upright on the top of the main hall, wearing a simple and generous pale yellow woven gold makeup Ruyi light cloud pattern cloud shoulder through sleeve dragon pattern satin jacket with a green woven gold cloud dragon sea water skirt, although simple but not simple. It's just that after a series of things such as the change of the throne, today's queen has seen a lot of vicissitudes with the naked eye, although she is still beautiful, but she no longer smiles as easily as before.
"Duchess Yongguo, get up, you just gave birth, you should have taken care of your body. Why be so anxious? ”
Ying Shu didn't have the heart to say anything polite to the queen now, when she knelt down in front of the queen and said, "Queen Mother, please save your life!" Please, save Princess Cheng, concubines, please!" After that, Ying Shu kowtowed to the queen again and again.
The queen has always been a soft-hearted person, and she has always kept her gratitude in her heart because the Wang sisters helped her, this time seeing Ying Shu so pitiful and pleading, she was naturally soft and guilty, so she hurriedly got off the seat and personally helped Ying Shu up, "Madame, get up." After helping Ying Shu up, the queen pressed Ying Shu to the side and sat down, and did not go up to sit down, only sat next to Ying Shu, and said gently: "Madam, how can I not know all the benefits that Ying Huan has for me?" ”
The queen began to recall the hard years in the past, and finally added: "Ying Huan helped me and Your Majesty so much, I am naturally grateful in my heart." Don't worry, I'll go and plead with Your Majesty, it's just ...... I'm afraid it will take some time. ”
After hearing this, Ying Shu knelt down in front of the queen, cried bitterly and said gratefully: "Thank you Queen Mother, thank you Queen Mother." The princess didn't mean to target His Majesty, but she was just confused for a while. Please also ask Your Majesty to ignore the villain! ”
The queen nodded slightly, her face was also a little tired, but she said extremely patiently: "Lady Yongguo, rest assured, this palace is not ungrateful. Princess Cheng fought with her life to protect His Majesty and the Crown Prince, and His Majesty and the palace were all in mind. When Your Majesty said this, I thought that I was dizzy for a while, and Madame could rest assured. ”
Ying Shu was speechless, and could only thank the queen repeatedly.
"You've just given birth, so it's time to recuperate. A woman's confinement is the most important, but it can't be sloppy today. Confinement is a lifelong thing. The queen instructed earnestly.
"Yes, thank you for your concern." Ying Shu bowed her head in response.
The queen glanced at the sky outside and couldn't help frowning: "The wind is still a little strong today, don't catch a cold." She held Yingshu's hand: "You go and rest for a while, come all the way today, how can you do if your body is still soaked?" ”
Ying Shu instinctively wanted to make a statement, but in the excuse, she heard the voice of the palace maid outside, "Queen Mother, the little grandfather and wife of Zhongguo ask to see." ”
It turned out to be Ying Chang.
I saw Ying Chang also running in with tears on her face, and her first reaction when she saw the queen was to kneel down with "poof", tears spilled into the Golden Palace, "Ask the queen to save her life!" ”
Ying Shu and the queen looked at each other, and Ying Shu saw the whole process of how the queen comforted Ying Chang with her own eyes, and then had to sigh that the queen's personality was really good.
It is really rare for such a gentle person to suffer so much, but still maintain a gentle bearing towards others.
The queen comforted Ying Chang, and when she looked at the hour, she ordered the two sisters to leave the palace together. Ying Shu and Ying Chang walked side by side, but they saw Ying Chang on the side and said coldly to herself: "Just after giving birth, don't think that your body is beaten with iron." ”
This person is always like this, that is, he expresses concern, and he also speaks so bluntly. Writing Zhai
"Don't think about it, I'm also looking at the face of the Wang family." After that, Ying Chang walked over coldly, without waiting for Ying Shu.
On the evening of the same day, there was a decree again, and the emperor thought again and again, and he allowed Princess Yinghuan and Concubine Cao to be exempted from martyrdom, and the rest of the people must be martyred for King Er.
The period of martyrdom was on the second day of the funeral decree, and the Tang Emperor Concubine and Li Huang Guifei, who had been deeply favored by the King of Anger, were all martyred and died, none of them were spared, and only Ying Huan personally visited them before leaving.
When the Tang Emperor concubine was martyred, she was quiet, she took the initiative to step on the low table and stretched her neck into the white silk, but she said expressionlessly: "Sister, I'm here to accompany you." Then she took the initiative to kick the dwarf table down, and did not struggle, but only begged for death.
Although, the death of the hanged man is not dignified and decent.
Emperor Tang Imperial Concubine is like this, but that Imperial Concubine Li Xi'er is obviously unwilling to die in Huangquan at the beginning of her glory and wealth, she threw off the palace maid who served her own death, and used all her strength to tear off Bai Aya, crying loudly: "I don't want to die!" I don't want to die! This palace is the imperial concubine, how can this palace be martyred? ”
The inner eunuch who came to deliver the decree just said lightly: "Mrs. Li, you are no longer the imperial concubine now." Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, you are just a handmaiden, and please recognize your identity. ”
Imperial Concubine Li still couldn't accept it, and slapped the inner supervisor like a madman, "No, this palace doesn't believe it!" This palace is the imperial concubine, the most noble woman in the world, and this palace should not die! In the end, she had no scruples, stretched out her hand and pointed at the inner supervisor and said, "The Emperor Taishang is a chaotic minister and thief!" My Majesty is the Orthodox! ”
"Lady, you're crazy! The slave advises you to stop a little, and now that you are obediently dead, maybe you can still have some posthumous mourning, which is better than your status as a singing and dancing girl. If you talk nonsense again, I'm afraid you won't be able to save your whole corpse! ”
"Nope! No! Don't be martyred in this palace, don't be martyred in this palace! ”
In the midst of the noise and chaos, Pu Shuyi in the past just walked over coldly, glanced at the Li family lightly, and said lightly: "This is all fate, you can die with peace of mind." After that, Pu Shuyi followed the example of the Tang Emperor's concubine and stepped on the low table indifferently and drooped away.
This kind of scene is too cruel, Ying Shu is very glad that she sent Brother Feng and her younger brother out at the beginning of hearing about it. Now she couldn't bear to even listen to herself, and if the child was here, it would be even more cruel.
"I thought the turmoil would gradually subside. Now, I'm afraid it's just getting started. Ying Shu smiled bitterly, snatched a piece of candied fruit from Shen Bin on the side and chewed it in her mouth, but she felt that there was no taste.
"My mother said that because you are not easy to move during confinement, she will wait for you to move back after confinement. The mother also said that she wanted to come to serve the confinement child! ”
Ying Shu shook her head resolutely: "No need." How to toss the mother? ”
Shen Bin added: "I said the same, I just ask my sister-in-law to serve my mother first, and when you go out in confinement, you will make amends with your mother." ”
Ying Shu nodded: "Okay." ”
How much does this damn confinement limit my actions! Now she is worried that Ying Huan is worried to death, but she was ordered by Shen Bin not to go out, saying that if there is anything to do, just send a letter or two, but fortunately, although Ying Huan's current situation is not good, it is not bad. She replied in a letter to herself, saying that although she was a widow, the queen remembered her former kindness, and was very good to herself and Concubine Cao, and she was treated a lot of food and clothing. Even the prince's biological mother, Zhou Guifei, will often send some things to herself to protect her life.
Ying Shu was a little relieved at this time, and it could be regarded as reducing her worries. I can confinement with a little peace of mind.
What made me feel more at ease in confinement was the visit of Mrs. Wang and Liu's family, and the three generations of the family hugged their heads and cried, and rebuilt the old good, which can be regarded as completely ending Yingshu's heart knot.
But to be honest, when that kind of thing happened, Mrs. Wang and Liu didn't know why Yingshu and Shen Bin changed suddenly, but they always had a scale in their hearts, although they didn't understand the truth, they also vaguely guessed a few points.
"When I came this time, I wanted to spend more time with my sister-in-law. I don't know if your grandfather is willing to do it. Mrs. Wang looked at Ying Shu and said with a slight smile.
Ying Shu was very excited: "Grandmother, do you want to accompany me?" She shrunk into Mrs. Wang's arms like a little milk cat, "Does Shen Bin dare or not?" He didn't want to beat him! ”
"Why are you still like a child when you're so an adult?"
"Slightly."
