Chapter 26: Uninvited Guest
"In short, when my mother goes back, let's persuade my father and brothers, don't go through all the trouble of planning to make Ling'er the queen." Speaking of such a sensitive matter, Zi Ling unconsciously lowered his voice. After all, the walls may have ears, and in this palace full of organs, you must always be careful in everything and take precautions everywhere.
"How can I, a woman, meddle in the affairs of men?" Mrs. Xiao said, "Besides, my mother wants you to be the queen." ”
"Mother, this is confused." Zi Ling frowned slightly, "Why can't my mother figure it out?" If the emperor wants to set up Ling'er as the queen, then why bother with these things? Ling'er only knows that the latter position will not bring glory to the Xiao family, but will only bring disaster to the flesh and blood! ”
"Shh Madame Xiao hurriedly stopped her and said in a voice as low as a gnat, "Don't say anything discouraged, everyone knows that the queen is not so easy to be." Everyone is staring at the throne, so the process is inevitably bumpy, Ling'er, you should be with your father and they should be together inside and out! ”
"Mother, Ling'er is pregnant with a child now! Do you know that in this palace, how many people are worried about the child in Ling'er's belly? Ling'er just wants to give birth to the child peacefully. Zi Ling said the worries in her heart, but I don't know if Mrs. Xiao understands her feelings? Yes, she just wants to give birth to the child smoothly, and she doesn't want anything else! For her, giving birth to a healthy child, and then raising him with all her heart, giving him a happy and peaceful life, is what she wants in this life!
"After the child is born, you have to think about him! Only when you become the queen can your child become a concubine and inherit the throne in the future! Mrs. Xiao bitterly persuaded Ziling, "Is it? Would you like to watch him lose to someone else's son, and then, for the rest of his life, being trampled under the feet of the future emperor as a loser, and even losing his life? ”
"Ling'er doesn't expect her child to be the emperor in the future, as long as he is healthy and happy, this is enough!" Zi Ling truthfully said what he thought in his heart.
"How can you be happy when you are born in the family of the emperor? Look at the princes of the first emperor, which one is happy? The second prince was divided into a land full of flying sand and rocks, the third prince committed suicide without explanation, and the fourth prince was exiled to the end of the world and his life and death are still unknown! What do you want your child to do? "Mrs. Xiao ruthlessly exposed this cruel truth, just to wake up her own daughter.
yes! Is this the fate of your own children? is so real and vivid in front of Ziling's eyes, if she is not the emperor, will her child end up like this? However, even if he becomes an emperor, like Meng Hongyu, he is wary of everyone, and suspiciously thinks that everyone is coveting his throne and country, and he may not be happy! Could it be that their children are destined to live an unhappy life like this?
Although he knew that what his mother said was the truth, such a ruthless fact made the son feel scared and desperate! No! She doesn't want her children to live in intrigue and strife for the rest of her life, she wants to do everything she can to give her children freedom and happiness, even if it is to give her life, she wants her children to be happy for the rest of their lives!
Thinking of this, Zi Ling couldn't help but redden, and couldn't help himself for his own body and his child's body. What a poor child, he was doomed to a bad fate before he even came to the world, targeted by conspiracy, entangled in power, and drawn up by desire!
Seeing that Ziling lowered her eyebrows and was silent, Mrs. Xiao thought she had figured it out, smiled and gently patted the back of Ziling's hand and said, "Don't think about anything, just raise the fetus with peace of mind, your father and your brother will arrange it." ”
However, Liu Ruyu was thoughtful, and her sharp eyes saw Zi Ling's strange silence, she hurriedly picked up a small red cloth bag from the table and put it in Zi Ling's hand, and said with a smile: "This is the peace charm that my mother-in-law specially went to send Zi Guanyin Temple to ask for Niangniang, Niangniang has to wear it every day, so as to keep your mother and son safe." At the beginning, my mother-in-law begged for me, you see, I gave birth to Hairuo, a big fat boy. "Hairuo is the youngest son of Xiao Zixun and Liu Ruyu, who is now five years old, and he is smart and cute, and he is very pleasing to Ziling.
Listening to Liu Ruyu's words, Zi Ling smiled at her, Zi Ling knew that her sister-in-law was amusing herself, how could she not laugh at her?
Seeing Zi Ling smiling, Liu Ruyu also nodded at her and smiled with satisfaction.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Xiao Rulai reported that Liu Ruxin was here, saying that she was coming to see her sister.
Although Liu Ruyu didn't really want to see Liu Ruxin in her heart, she was a well-informed lady after all, and she also pretended to smile as kindly as the spring sun, and commanded through the door: "It's rare that my sister still remembers me, please invite her in." ”
Zi Ling wondered in her heart - why did Liu Ruxin come to Yongle Palace? Didn't Meng Hongyu decree that no one was allowed to enter and leave Yongle Palace? How did she get in? And why did you come?
It turned out that Liu Ruxin's mother passed away two years ago, and Liu Ruxin had no other brothers and sisters from the same mother, and her sisters-in-law were not very close to her, so no one came to the palace to see her today.
Seeing other people's mothers and daughters reunited, her aunt and sister-in-law hugging each other, remembering that she was alone and no one was visiting, Liu Ruxin couldn't help but feel sad in her heart. Later, when she heard that Liu Ruyu had entered the palace to visit Xiao Ziling, she went to Meng Hongyu, saying that she had no mother to visit, and she was so pitiful and miserable, and asked her to come to Yongle Palace to see Liu Ruyu.
After entering the door, Liu Ruxin greeted Ziling with a courtesy, and then happily paced to Liu Ruyu's side, and said happily: "I heard that my sister has entered the palace, and I hope to see my sister, so I came uninvited, hoping not to disturb my sister." ”
Liu Ruyu said with a smile: "How could it be? We sisters haven't seen each other for eight or nine years, and I thought about going to see my sister, but I didn't expect my sister to come, so I didn't have to take a trip. I don't know if Liu Ruyu is kind or sincere, but let's just assume that she is sincere!
"Sister, don't just stand, sit down and talk to your sister-in-law, I haven't seen you for so many years, you two sisters must have a lot to say." Yunu moved a stool, and Zi Ling hurriedly beckoned Liu Ruxin to sit down.
Ziling didn't know that their sisterhood was affectionate, and she didn't know if they really had a lot to say, but she knew that she had a lot to say to her mother, and because Liu Ruxin was so disturbed, their mother, daughter, and sister-in-law couldn't talk well!
- What an uninvited guest!
