"I just want to make the prince happy! But I didn't expect that after many years of separation, I couldn't figure out the prince's preferences. ”

Mrs. Chen sighed, full of resentment and helplessness.

She's old, and she's no longer the likable lady she used to be.

She is now old, guarding the door empty, her mother's family was slaughtered, and people seem to have lost their pursuit.

Even if she became a grandmother and had blood children and grandchildren, her cool heart still couldn't be warmed up.

Yan Shouzhan looked at her with a strange expression, "Is it really just to make this king happy, and there is no other purpose?" Who came up with the idea, or did someone say something in your ear? ”

Mrs. Chen shook her head slowly, "The prince doesn't need to be suspicious, no one wants to hurt the prince." The idea is what I think, and it has nothing to do with other people. They are all doing what they are told, and they can't help themselves. ”

Yan Shouzhan was indeed suspicious, and there was a pair of invisible hands behind his back.

Mrs. Chen, a woman in the house, how could she think of using this means to please herself?

No one clicked, how could it be.

However......

Mrs. Chan insisted that the idea was what she had in mind.

There really was no one to nudge her, and no one to bewitch her.

That's weird!

Yan Shouzhan said sharply: "You are so introspective, this king will definitely find out about this matter." ”

Mrs. Chen answered and bowed down to send him out.

The maid came to serve, "Do you want Mrs. Fang to go back to the room to rest?" Won't the prince rest here tonight? ”

Mrs. Chen smiled, "The prince is busy, and he has a lot of opportunities, so naturally he doesn't have time to rest here with Mrs. Ben." Asked the kitchen to prepare a bowl of white fungus soup, and Mrs. Ben suddenly missed the taste of white fungus soup. ”

"Slaves obey!"

……

Mrs. Chen ate the sweet white fungus soup, but it was tasteless.

Her expression was flat, but her gaze was unfocused, as if her soul had left her body.

Anyone can see that something is wrong with her, but they don't know the cause of the incident.

A bowl of white fungus soup is down, the night is late, it is time to wash and rest.

Everything is as usual, nothing different.

The only difference is that she asked for pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and suddenly wanted to write.

also sent the maid.

No one was allowed to enter the house to disturb her without her command.

The candle flame was extinguished very late.

Nothing was said all night.

Stay until dawn, and it's a new day.

The maids rubbed their eyes and got up to start their day's work.

Wash yourself up, and when you see that the hour is not early, you go to wake up Mrs. Chen.

I screamed several times outside the door, but there was no movement in the bedroom.

The maid dared to push the door in, and a moment later, a scream of surprise knocked over the roof.

Mrs. Chen is dead!

With a smile on his face, he left peacefully as if he had fallen asleep.

She committed suicide by taking poison!

Because......

Under her pillow, pressed her suicide note.

She was tired, too tired to live, so she decisively ended her life.

In her suicide note, she told her three children, full of concern and expectation.

Her suicide, too suddenly!

Suddenly, everyone's jaws dropped.

Countless people want to ask: Why?

Okay, there was talk and laughter a few days ago. Why can't I think about it all of a sudden, so I chose to commit suicide by taking poison.

The three children knelt in front of the mourning hall, still looking confused.

People, why is it gone?

Yan Yunzhi almost fainted from crying.

Yan Yunhai directly questioned the eldest brother Yan Yunquan, "Why don't you have a mother?" Shouldn't the eldest brother give us an explanation? If you want to say who knows the reason for the whole thing, it must be the eldest brother. ”

Yan Yunzhi also looked at his eldest brother Yan Yunquan with a blank eye, "If the eldest brother knows something, please tell the truth." I don't believe that my mother couldn't think of it, so she would choose to take poison and commit suicide. There is something clearly wrong with this. Why didn't my father send someone to investigate the matter, and why? ”

Yan Yunquan's expression was blank, and his lips were pale.

After a while, he said: "The matter has come to this, and it is our responsibility as children to let my mother go more stable." ”

"Does the eldest brother want his mother to die without turning a blind eye?"

"Don't talk nonsense! My mother walked peacefully! ”

"Do you have a conscience?" Yan Yunzhi scolded angrily, "My mother's favorite person is you, and I have always only planned for you." Yunhai and I have to step aside. Now, your mother's relatives are gone, you don't even avenge your mother's relatives and give your mother justice? Has your conscience been eaten by dogs? ”

Yan Yunzhi complained sharply, full of resentment in her heart.

"What justice?"

Yan Yunquan asked her rhetorically, "No one wants to force her mother to death, she chose to commit suicide by taking poison." If you want to know why, you go and ask your mother! Exactly, I also wonder why. ”

Yan Yunzhi was stunned.

Yan Yunhai asked cautiously: "Big brother really doesn't know why his mother committed suicide by taking poison?" Live well, what can't you think about, you have to ...... Obviously, a few days ago, everything was fine, and she also said that when her father came back, she would arrange a good errand for me. Why did my father come back only a few days ago, and he ......?"

His words came to an abrupt end.

His face was frightened, and his eyes were abrupt.

At that moment, he seemed to know the truth, knew something, and could no longer say the rest of the words.

He was angry, puzzled, and finally all became Mu Ran, just like his eldest brother Yan Yunquan.

His hands were clenched, and he was trembling, because of fear, but also because of the anger that filled him.

With red eyes, he asked his eldest brother Yan Yunquan, "Why?" Did the eldest brother guess the truth? ”

Yan Yunquan said loudly: "There is no truth! The only truth is that her mother walked peacefully, no one forced her, and she chose this path by herself. ”

"Why? Tell me! "Yan Yunhai is unrelenting.

Yan Yunzhi looked confused.

"Did you all guess something, and why didn't anyone tell me?" she asked. You say! ”

The two brothers were silent, and no one paid any attention to her.

Yan Yunzhi was so angry that she cried.

She knelt in front of the mourning hall and complained about her brother's ruthlessness in front of Mrs. Chen.

However......

But to no avail.

Mrs. Chen, who is nominally a side lady on the family tree, is actually a concubine.

She committed suicide by poisoning herself, and she could only stop for three days.

Three days later, it was carried to the family temple and buried at a later date.

Yan Yunzhi was not convinced, no matter what, he should have stopped for seven days, why only three days.

She wanted to find her father's theory, but was stopped by Yan Yunquan.

"Someone, take my aunt down. She was not allowed to disturb the prince's recuperation. ”

"Big brother, you are so vicious. My mother has hurt you in vain all these years. ”

Yan Yunquan pursed his lips and did not defend himself.

He watched indifferently as his subordinates dragged Yan Yunzhi down.

And then......

He got up and went to the outer study.

There are some things that he must ask as a son of man.

This is not to seek justice, but to confirm whether the mother died deservedly.

This death is not avoidable.

……

For his arrival, Yan Shouzhan was not surprised.

"This king has been waiting for you to come over these days, and I thought you were timid. If you don't dare to stand up and ask why, this king will really be disappointed. Well, you came anyway eventually. The children taught by the king himself did not disappoint the king. ”

Yan Yunquan looked sad, "What did my father say when he saw his mother that day?" Why did the mother suddenly take poison and commit suicide? ”

Yan Shouzhan didn't answer him, but said, "These days, you should have thought about it a lot. Tell me your answer. ”

Yan Yunquan opened his mouth and asked cautiously: "Could it be that on the day my father came back, the people knelt down and shouted long live, and it really has something to do with my mother?" How is this possible? Mother, she's just a house woman, how can she ......?"

"yes, how could she have come up with such an idea. This is also a question that this king has been wondering about these days, but he has never been able to find the answer. I interrogated everyone around your mother, but still found nothing. At one point, the king wondered if it was your two brothers who had bewitched your mother. Now it seems that this king is thinking too much. ”

Yan Yunquan's expression became more and more desolate, "Just because my father questioned my mother, my mother chose to take poison and commit suicide?" Why? His father didn't say that he would punish her, and even if he did, he would be able to bear it. How could she not think of choosing to commit suicide by taking poison. ”

"Maybe the words in your mother's suicide note are not lies. She's really tired and tired. She made an excuse for herself and chose to kill herself. ”

Yan Yunquan hugged his head in pain.

He couldn't accept the result.

If there is something that cannot be clearly explained, it must be a dead end.

Yan Shouzhan said solemnly: "This king didn't intend to take your mother's life, she chose this path by herself. You have to open some. ”

Yan Yunquan's expression was painful, how did he think about it?

My mother chose to commit suicide by taking poison, because he was incompetent as a son.

If he had more ability, perhaps all this could have been avoided.

He muttered to himself, "Perhaps, she will never be able to let go of her uncle's death." After persisting for so many years, there is still no way to continue to persevere. ”

Yan Shou's reprimanding and dissatisfaction may have become the last straw that crushed Mrs. Chen.

I'm so tired!

I don't like my husband, I seem to have become a drag on my children, my mother's family is gone, and the world seems to have become dark in an instant.

As......

That's it!

She is dead, and once the matter is over, the child will not be implicated.

Mrs. Chen is dead, no one knows what she is thinking, everything is speculation.

Yan Shouzhan gave Yan Yunquan a holiday, so that he could rest and not drill the horns.

If it really doesn't work, I will go to the barracks and stay for a few days.
