Chapter 210: The Arrival of the Soldiers (Part II)
Ying Shu looked at the three mothers condescendingly and coldly, with disdain in her eyes.
"Then why did I ask you yesterday if you would like to stay in the princess's house, and why did you say nothing? If you don't want to stay in the princess's mansion, just bring it up, you can let you go in a bright way, according to your relationship with the princess, the princess will definitely not treat you lightly, why do you want to do these things now? ”
The three mothers knelt on the ground and trembled: "Grandma, grandma, we ......" The three looked at each other, but they were embarrassed to speak.
"The eldest princess is generous, but you are like this, I'm afraid it will chill the eldest princess's heart." Ying Shu's eyes were like torches, looking at the three people below, "There is a chance to tell you the truth, but you have to hide it, it's really not countable." ”
"Grandma spares her life, grandma spares her life, and the slaves and maids are also confused for a while, and they don't want to do this. It's just that there are still children in the slaves' families, so they have to do this! The slaves and maidservants did not dare anymore, never again. ”
Ying Shu looked at the three mothers coldly, to be honest, these three mothers are much older than their mother-in-law Liu, and they are the people who have always followed the eldest princess, so they should be extremely respected existences in this mansion. It's just that this time such a thing happened, but it was really difficult to respect and respect.
"The three mothers are all old people around the eldest princess, although there is a mistake this time, but I think that it depends on the face of the eldest princess." Ying Shu is kind and authentic.
When several mothers heard that Yingshu was so kind, they were instantly relieved, only to feel that this grandmother was sparing them in the face of the eldest princess, and they all thanked her: "Grandma Xie." ”
However, Ying Shu looked horizontally, her expression instantly became sharp, but she shouted loudly: "It's just that you are so bold, when you asked you, you said that you were willing to accompany the princess's mansion, but now there are so many words!" She waved her hand lightly, "Drag it down, several mothers are all characters with heads and faces, so they will be cut off." ”
Several mothers were just glad that they were able to escape a life one moment ago, and looked at this young and kind little grandmother who looked at it and was very good at talking, but the next moment she was directly sentenced to death, when even she was frightened, "Grandma, grandma spares her life!" You don't just look at the face of the slaves, you have to look at the face of the princess! The slaves and maidservants did not dare anymore. ”
The three mothers wailed again and again, all touching the ground with their heads, "Grandma spare, grandma spare." ”
"What's the noise?" It was the voice of the eldest princess, and everyone hurriedly stepped forward to ask for peace: "Meet the eldest princess." ”
Ying Shu hurriedly stepped forward, but saw that it was the eldest princess who was also dressed in a luxurious and solemn dress with a flower crown, "Mother." ”
The eldest princess slowly walked to the front and looked at the three mothers kneeling on the ground, her eyes were full of disdain, "Don't make any noise, since you can do this kind of thing, as long as you beat them to death." After that, the eldest princess dragged the three mothers down in frustration, and said in the voice of the mothers' wails and sticks: "This palace can accommodate people who serve this palace, and can accommodate people who don't want to serve this palace, but this palace can't tolerate people who deceive this palace, you all remember it clearly for me." This palace has given you a chance, and if any of you dare to deceive this palace from then on, this palace will not spare it. ”
The rest of the people were even more frightened, and under the imposing deterrence of the eldest princess, they all said: "The slaves and maids are willing to serve the princess with all their hearts, and they will never dare to deceive the princess." ”
The eldest princess lightly ordered everyone to retreat, and then looked at Ying Shu and went to sit in the inner room.
The eldest princess looked at Ying Shu, nodded her head in approval, and summarized what happened just now, and said slowly: "You did an excellent job today, this is the majesty that my princess's grandmother should have." The princess sighed and said, "Although these people are my companions, they have also served me for many years, but it is really unexpected and painful to be able to do such a thing now." ”
The eldest princess looked at Ying Shu, and a fierce intent slowly welled up in her eyes, "This kind of person must not be kept." I thought you were a gentle and generous person, but I didn't think ......"
Ying Shu smiled faintly: "My daughter-in-law didn't dare to say anything, I just thought that in this special period, if there is such a person who is different from the outside, it will be really ......."
The eldest princess nodded, expressing her approval for Ying Shu's cautious thinking, "Not bad." You are very right, it is worthy of the girl brought out by Mrs. Wang, and she has the style of Mrs. Wang. It's just ......" The eldest princess took Yingshu's flower crown and looked at it: "You are dressed up quite early." I guess I can't sleep today. ”
Ying Shu smiled frankly: "I can't hide anything from my mother, I really have something in my heart, and I can't sleep when I think about it." I simply dressed up first, and waited for tomorrow, that is, I could enter the palace with my mother. ”
The eldest princess looked at her outfit again, but she also smiled and said, "Actually, I am the same." I always think about things in the palace, but I can't sleep at all. But don't worry, even now that you go to the chrysanthemum garden to see your sister-in-law, your sister-in-law must be the same as the two of us. ”
After a long and short night, the eldest princess took the two grandmothers in the princess's mansion into the palace to visit, the eldest princess only left Yongfu Houye Shen An to stay, and the two young masters of the Shen family went to the palace gate to protect the safety of the imperial city. This time, the eldest princess did not want to hide the battle of her travel, but made a big fanfare, which naturally alarmed many subjects along the way, but it was also the goal achieved, teaching people to know the determination of the imperial family to fight against the white department just by watching.
Daxin has the confidence to never leave behind the people of the city in a corner of peace, and will definitely be with the people of Pingjing City.
When I arrived in the palace, I saw that the queen mother and the two concubines in the palace were all dressed solemnly in the same big shirt and phoenix crown, that is, the female officials serving in the palace were also wearing purple regimental collar with embroidered beads, narrow sleeves and small sunflower official robes (1), with a crown of a year scene (2) on their heads, and the palace was full of the most solemn and formal dress.
In this way, anyone can see the peculiarity of the current situation.
When the Queen Mother Jin saw the two eldest princesses of Zhaoming Fuchang coming, she seemed to have grabbed the backbone of the main heart, but she smiled tiredly: "You two are here, I feel at ease." Otherwise, I'm always panicked and scared like something. ”
The eldest princess of Zhaoming stepped forward to help the queen mother, "Don't worry, the queen mother, at this moment, the sons are naturally going to enter the palace." The men on the front line are guarding the gate of the city, and we will guard this palace, and the family will be neatly in one place. ”
"Wow, wow!" The Queen Mother Jin burst into tears: "This is the bearing and courage that our Daxin women should have, with you here, no matter what, Daxin's decency is there." ”
Ying Shu sat at the bottom, looking at the expressions of the people in the hall, and then thinking back to the emotions on the faces of everyone along the way, they were probably all dignified and complicated, some were afraid, and some were resolute and determined, as if they had already prepared for the worst in their hearts.
From the bottom of her heart, Ying Shu admires such people, who can think of the worst results, and hide their panic in their hearts and reveal their strength, are people with great strength.
"The queen mother can rest assured, the emperor personally took the soldiers to guard the city gate, and the white department can't take advantage." Concubine Shuqing looked at the panicked Queen Mother, but in comparison, she looked much more dignified and indifferent, and had the momentum to grasp the audience: "I have already given the white silk blade to go down to the various palaces, if the palace city can't stand it, our ladies will be martyred." ”
Concubine Yingxian's face was also resolute: "Yes, Queen Mother, don't worry." As Daxin's concubine, we must share the honor and disgrace with Daxin. ”
Compared with the two concubines who were not afraid to control everything, the Queen Mother Jin became more and more anxious, and even kept shedding tears.
For the next three days, almost the entire Miyagi people were holding their breath, and it seemed that the order was no different from usual, but there was always a tense and urgent dangerous atmosphere. Everyone is worried, and there is a trace of fear hidden in everyone's heart.
In the past three days, it is only said that Yu Qian, the secretary of the military department, led Wuqing Boshi to attack the white department from both sides of the city and took the initiative to leave the station. Bai Bu directly tied up the Emperor Taishang to the city, forcing the Daxin royal family to surrender or donate all the money in the treasury of the national dynasty, otherwise he would kill the Emperor Taishang and destroy his mouth. However, the Emperor Taishang tore his throat and told the emperor Li Ming on the city gate that he should not listen to Baibu's words, do not care about his own life, and must defend the capital and the country.
Under the stalemate between the two armies, King Danshang of the White Department did not dare to easily move the Taishang Emperor Li Jing, who was the lord of all countries, so he hesitated for a while, and the result was that he was attacked by Wu Qingbo and Yu Qian, and the soldiers in the rear had already been unfamiliar with the terrain and climate of Daxin, and they were sick when they came here, and the entire White Army's strength weakened, and they collapsed in an instant.
Seeing this, Emperor Li Ming shouted: "If the white department dares to touch the emperor's hair, no one in the white department will come out today. ”
King Baibu Danshang is not stupid, he naturally knows which is more important, and after thinking about it, he can only take the Emperor Taishang away in the end.
Bai Bu failed to attack the capital, but he lost all kinds of troops, and Daxin defended the capital with a narrow chance of victory.
When the news of Daxin's victory came, everyone in the palace was relieved, and after so many days, they were finally able to relax for a while, and the Queen Mother Jin was even more overjoyed and cried, and applauded.
"Good! All right! Bai Bu finally didn't succeed, Emperor Xian, I can be regarded as living up to your expectations! ”
Everyone was happy that they were able to hold their lives, and they all said: "Congratulations to the Queen Mother, God bless Daxin." ”
After Yingshu got the news of the victory, the hand clenched in the big sleeve slowly stretched out, slowly put down the small dagger in her hand, and stretched out her hand to see that there was already sweat in her palm.
Now that the city gate has been saved, Shen Bin outside can be regarded as relieved.
Note (1) In the "History of the Ming Dynasty" volume 66, Zhi 42, Yufu, it is recorded that the crown dress of the palace maid in the Ming Dynasty is as follows: "The crown dress of the palace people is the same as that of the Song Dynasty. Purple, group neck, narrow sleeves, thorny branches and small sunflowers, with gold circles, beads sewn gold with red skirts. Bow-like shoes with small gold flowers pierced on them. The black gauze hat is decorated with flowers, and the hat is decorated with beads. Beaded sideburns comb. ”
(2) A year scene: a kind of flower crown often carried by the palace maid in the Northern Song Dynasty at the big festival celebration, and the silk flower decorated with the scenery flowers of the four seasons on the crown, so it is called "a year scene", because the crown of the palace people mentioned above is the same as the Song Dynasty, so it is called.
