The sisters went all the way to the former Li Guifei's bedroom, and Princess Yongping was locked up in the side hall where she had been living.

The attendants and palace maids who were guarding Princess Yongping immediately went to open the door for Runrong, and Runrong took someone to accompany Qingrong into the door.

Princess Yongping was still wearing the previous dragon robe, and when she heard the sound of the door opening, she looked up and saw Qingrong wearing a blue dress, and the outer gown was embroidered with rose patterns.

The person in front of her seems to be still young when she was not married, and her expression is always so calm and careless.

"Shen Qingrong, you and I have known each other for ten years." Princess Yongping hugged her legs and sat on the foot pedal on the edge of the bed.

Qingrong didn't say anything to Princess Yongping, just stared at her silently.

When Princess Yongping saw Qingrong's expression, her heart was even more surging, full of anger and unwillingness, "Why are you looking at me like this." ”

Qingrong felt that her anger was very nervous and inexplicable, and said helplessly: "Then how do I look at you, you are comfortable in your heart?" ”

Princess Yongping seemed to only be able to see Shen Qingrong in her eyes at this moment, except that she turned a blind eye to Runrong and the palace maid holding the three-foot white silk.

"Shen Qingrong, I don't understand, I don't understand......" The emotions in Princess Yongping's eyes were very complicated, full of questions, and I really couldn't figure it out.

Qingrong was also curious about what Princess Yongping's obsession was, so she wanted to approach.

Runrong pulled Qingrong, shook his head at her and whispered: "I'm afraid she has already gone crazy, why should you step forward, be careful that she hurts you." ”

Qingrong patted Runrong's hand, smiled gently, stepped forward directly, simply sat cross-legged in front of Princess Yongping, and said, "If there is anything you don't understand, if I can give you an answer, I will give you a clear answer." ”

Qingrong at this moment left only pity and helplessness for Princess Yongping, who was about to die.

She was born in the royal family, and since she was a child, she has been loved by the stars and the moon, and looking at the world, there seems to be nothing she can't get. But only the sincerity of her beloved, a beautiful marriage, and her beloved children are what she can't get.

The love that the first emperor and Concubine Li gave to Princess Yongping was obviously deformed, stripped of the coat of power, and only doting remained. They didn't teach Princess Yongping normal love, principles and bottom lines of life.

Therefore, Princess Yongping's principle is that she can do whatever it takes to achieve her goal, and those who stand in her way can all die, because only she herself is the most precious.

"Obviously, I am the princess, I am blessed, and I should be fearless. I can live proudly and calmly. But you, Shen Qingrong, are even more proud than me, you are pretentious, and everyone else likes you and eats your set. Why can't I? ”

When Princess Yongping said this, her eyes were full of grievances, a bit like the children who did well in the kindergarten but didn't get praise and got the little red flower.

"To be a foundation, to be a philanthropic gractal, I will do it too. Not only that, but I also put the status of women too high, so that they can live freely, so that they can live like men. But one by one, they all wish I was going to die. Am I not doing as well as you? What exactly am I doing wrong? Why can you ask for mercy and be benevolent, but I, the proud daughter of heaven, will always be defeated by you? ”

Princess Yongping obviously not only couldn't figure it out, but also felt very ashamed.

Qingrong shook his head, "You want women and men to live on an equal footing, and it's not wrong that women's fate will no longer be dominated by men." But you don't think about whether they want to. ”

Princess Yongping couldn't help laughing when she heard Qingrong say this, "They are really pitiful, ridiculous." Born to be a cheap maid, a cheap skin. Princess Yongping said, her tone becoming more and more resentful.

Qingrong disagreed, "Since the Qin Dynasty burned books and furnaces, the Han Dynasty deposed the hundred schools of thought and respected Confucianism, what those in power have done is to fool the people, and since ancient times, the common people have been difficult to open the wisdom of the people." They have fewer readers, know history and know less strategy. What you think, they can't understand. This is not that they are willing to despise themselves, and it does not mean that you can use it for their good to persecute them, not to mention, you are forcing them to live and die. ”

Princess Yongping seemed to understand, but she still didn't think so.

Qingrong said directly: "It's like the first emperor and the concubine, they said it was for your good, but they forced you to do what you didn't want to do." Even if you go to southern Xinjiang to be a queen, you still don't want to. Treat others with oneself and compare one's heart with one's heart. ”

Princess Yongping argued forcefully: "This is different. What kind of days are they in southern Xinjiang, they are not really good for me. But the days I let them live in Japan are really good days. ”

Most people are like this, and they can never completely change their position. It's like Qingrong felt that it was good to be single and not have children in her last life, but her female colleagues felt that she must be very lonely and unhappy, and frantically introduced her to a blind date, and had to drag her into the quagmire of getting married and having children.

Qingrong smiled, "You're not them, and they're not you." You think it's good, but they don't think so. But you don't threaten them with life and death. What's more, you can get more rights for women, but you don't necessarily have to step on men. Why does women's equality have to be opposed to men's? ”

Don't say that Princess Yongping can't figure out this question, in her previous life, how many modern people can't think of a reason. In any case, when women's equality is not resolved, it is difficult to achieve true and absolute equality.

What's more, now Princess Yongping wants to raise her arms in the feudal society and liberate women, which is simply a fool's dream, too difficult.

Princess Yongping still said unrepentantly: "If the world is ruined, it will naturally bleed and pay the price." I thought you would understand me. ”

Qingrong said: "I naturally understand you, but I don't agree with your approach." Whether it is the first emperor or your rule, in fact, it is the same, just to satisfy your own selfishness. ”

Runrong could probably understand Qingrong's words, and seeing that Princess Yongping was getting more and more energetic, she couldn't help but say: "Qingrong, you don't have to talk to her more, the Tao is different." She did such a thing that lost her conscience......"

Princess Yongping suddenly raised her voice, continued to ignore Runrong, and said to Qingrong: "Shen Qingrong, you told me that I am a princess of a country, and I enjoy the support and worship of all people, so I should assume the responsibility of a princess of a country." ”

Qingrong remembered what Princess Yongping had said to Princess Yongping before she was in southern Xinjiang. Qingrong couldn't understand Princess Yongping's persistence at the moment.

Princess Yongping crossed her eyes, "In my life, you are the first person to look at me so contemptuously and despise me so obviously." ”

Qingrong felt that Princess Yongping might be a bit paranoid in personality.

Princess Yongping looked at Qingrong's eyes and smiled sadly, "It's still the same now, your contempt and contempt for me have never changed. ”

Qingrong said embarrassedly: "Princess, in fact, you don't have to care about how I look at you. ”

Princess Yongping shook her head in despair, and said, "No, you made me realize my own unbearable ......" Speaking of this, Princess Yongping suddenly stood up, and she seemed to have finished everything she wanted to say to Qingrong.

Runrong looked very vigilant, and couldn't help but take two steps forward to guard against Princess Yongping for Qingrong.

Princess Yongping looked at the person holding the white silk behind Qingrong, and said lightly: "Put that one down, you guys go out." ”

Seeing that she already understood what she had to do, and was willing to leave her with dignity after death, Runrong stepped forward and took a handful of Qingrong to stand up.

Qingrong didn't say anything to Princess Yongping, but finally bowed her head slightly, which was the last farewell to her arrogant princess.

Runrong and Qingrong walked out of the house by supporting each other, and immediately ordered someone to close the door. The two stood at the door, and did not leave.

However, Runrong saw Qingrong's solemn expression, and said playfully: "No wonder Princess Yongping hates you so much, I hated you when you first went home, not only me, but also the eldest sister, Shen Peirong, and Shen Lingrong all annoyed you so much." ”

Qingrong couldn't help but be curious: "What's the matter?" ”

Runrong said: "What Princess Yongping said, she is always so arrogant, calm, and no one is afraid of the way that no one cares." ”

Qingrong couldn't help but silently review, she didn't feel that she was the kind of person who didn't have affinity for watching the cow coaxing.

"I realized later that you probably didn't care. You don't care about anything, and you don't want anything. You want what you give you, and you don't care about what you don't give you. It turns out that it is not arrogance, it is desireless, and seeing through life. ”

Qingrong couldn't tell whether she was praising her or praising her, but couldn't help but smile: "Actually, it's not that I don't want anything, it's just that I've always had nothing and nothing to lose." But then it wasn't like this, otherwise how could I grovel to Princess Yongping as a slave for so long? ”

Qingrong summed it up simply, in fact, she lived with inexplicable resentment in her life, and the attitude of not being afraid of death when she broke the jar made people feel arrogant without desire.

Misunderstanding, a beautiful misunderstanding.

At this time, there was a bang in the room, and they heard the sound of something falling to the ground.

Runrong and Qingrong didn't look at it, but the person who followed Runrong pushed the door open.

After a while, the palace maid bowed down and stood at Runrong's side and whispered, "Princess Yongping has gone." ”

Runrong held Qingrong's hand tightly and said, "This matter is over." She seemed relieved.

On the tenth day of September in the second year of Yuanfeng, Princess Yongping ruled herself in the Qingchen Palace, and this dark reign lasted for nearly two years, known as Yuanfeng's chaotic government.

The Taishan massacre launched by Princess Yongping, and the heinous murder of her father and mother, and the massacre of her brothers, are famous in the history books.

The king of Liao changed the year name to the forty-eighth year of the Apocalypse, in order to commemorate the first emperor, has shown respect, and he is ready to solemnly guard filial piety for the first emperor in March.

On the first day of the first month of the next year, he will be called the emperor in the new year.

Leaving the Light Dust Palace, Qingrong also felt a lightness in body and mind. I couldn't help but ask Runrong curiously: "The matter of Princess Yongping is over, what are you going to do with Shen Peirong and Shen Lingrong." ”

Runrong didn't answer, and asked Qingrong with the same curiosity, "What do you want to do?" ”

Qingrong couldn't think of it for a while, so he only sighed, "I don't think they are extremely evil, and they can't be executed, right?" ”

Qingrong, as a modern person, really doesn't have the string to kill anyone in his head.

Runrong thought thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed, "Actually, if you don't mention it, I will almost forget about her." ”

Also, the height that Runrong is standing at now is beyond the reach of Shen Lingrong and Shen Peirong in their lives, and it is estimated that letting them live to see Runrong live a happy and nourishing life is the biggest punishment for them, right?

After all, in the Shen family back then, Shen Peirong and Shen Lingrong were the most favored daughters. She and Runrong were simply bullied and snatched by the two of them to grow up.

The King of Liao sent the roster of female officials canonized by Princess Yongping to Runrong, Runrong was influenced by Qingrong, and immediately asked people to make resumes of these female officials.

After reading them one by one, I picked out those who aided and abused the abuses and did not do good deeds, and if there were human lives on their hands, they were all dealt with according to the law.

For the rest of those who have done well, Runrong will take the initiative to invite these people into the palace, comfort one or two, and explain that these people can continue to be female officials of the foundation.

Zhongyi Bofu took the opportunity to dispose of Shen Lingrong above, and directly issued a letter of resignation and kicked Shen Lingrong out of Zhongyi Bofu. Pei Rong was also abandoned by her husband's family and sent back to the Shen family.

After the reign of the King of Liao, he vigorously removed some officials who were attached to the Li family, such as Shen Lingrong's maternal uncle Zhao family, the Shen family, and the like.

And from the local political achievements in the past few years, a large number of officials with outstanding political achievements have been promoted to Beijing in an eclectic manner.

Most of the officials of the DPRK and China were filled with such measures, and naturally they were grateful for the grace of God.

Qingrong felt that from another point of view, it could be regarded as consolidating the imperial power in disguise.

Originally, the two brothers Shen Zeduan and Shen Zezhang remained neutral in the court, but because of the relationship between Aunt Zhao and Shen Lingrong, they stood on the wrong team, and naturally resented the mother and daughter in every way.

After Shen Lingrong was abandoned and went home, life with Aunt Zhao became more and more difficult.

Shen Zezhang was worried about Runrong's status in front of the King of Liao, and he wanted to find Runrong to intercede.

At that time, Qingrong was also in the palace to accompany Runrong to plan the development of future female officials in Daliang.

As soon as he heard that Shen Zezhang asked to see him, Runrong was a little stunned, looking at what he was thinking.

Since Runrong married the King of Liao, and since the Shen family sided with the Li family's forces, they hadn't seen Shen Zezhang for a long time.

After a long time, Runrong's fan-like eyelashes flickered and blinked, before he raised his eyes and said, "Please come to him." ”

The attendants quickly and silently brought Shen Zezhang into the door.

Shen Zezhang respectfully greeted Runrong.

Runrong was expressionless, and said lightly: "Lord Shen is exempt." "It's a bit deliberate.

Qingrong was by Runrong's side and shook Qingrong's hand silently.

Shen Zezhang raised his head, his face was full of vicissitudes, compared to ten years ago, he was already a little old.

When he saw that Runrong and Qingrong were there, he was a little embarrassed at first, and then coughed silently before he said, "You two, you have always been fine." ”

Runrong couldn't help but sneer very lowly, "Don't bother Lord Shen, the two of us have never been very good, but now we are bitter." ”

Shen Zezhang's face showed embarrassment again, he clenched his fists on the tip of his nose and coughed, trying his best to endure the embarrassment, and said: "Although the two of you have passed on to Mrs. Fengguo, you are also my daughter in the end, and I gave birth to you and raised you......"

Runrong naturally knew why Shen Zezhang came, because when the King of Liao mentioned the Shen family, it was still Runrong who opened his mouth, so that the King of Liao didn't have to care about her, how to deal with the Shen family, how to deal with the Shen family.

Now that Shen Zezhang has entered the palace to ask for a meeting, he is willing to pull down his face to come to the past, and it is rare to see that he is asking for mercy.

"My mother gave birth to me, and I grew up in the Shen family. But when I got married, the prince and I were scared all these years, but we didn't get any care from the Shen family. Lord Shen, you have to understand that the Shen family can still be in the capital now because they gave birth to me. If there is no such favor, the Shen family will already be relegated to the common people, just like the Zhao family. Runrong categorically interrupted Shen Zezhang's words, and made a loud noise.

Shen Zezhang was still cheeky, and said earnestly: "Runrong, you will have a different status in the future, you should understand that you need a strong mother family to support each other with you." ”

"In the past, I had my own brother and Qingrong, they are my mother's family and my relatives. We, the abandoned sons who were abandoned by the Shen family, have always been dependent on each other like this. In the future, it will be the same. ”

In this way, Shen Zezhang had nothing to say, but said: "I don't live with your mother and daughter, but there is still your brother, how ...... you are"

Runrong ignored Shen Zezhang and directly served tea to others.

When the others left, Runrong asked Qingrong with some loss, and said, "I, am I a little too cold-blooded and ruthless?" ”

Qingrong shook his head, "Since he was a child, he only had two daughters in his heart, Shen Peirong and Shen Lingrong. Whoever sows the cause will naturally taste the fruit. ”

But Runrong is still sullen and can't lift his spirits.

Qingrong supported his forehead with his hand, and sighed with some embarrassment: "Runrong, you really want to be the queen." When I was a kid and you snatched my pastries in the main room, I didn't think about it at all. ”

Runrong was a little laughed by her, "Yes, I still remember the things when I was a child, but now my own children are running all over the ground." ”

While speaking, Zhi Ge ran into the door with another little guy, saw Qingrong, and rushed over with joy, "Aunt! ”

Zhige is very close to Qingrong, every time he sees Qingrong, he pounces on Qingrong to hug him.

Runrong looked both happy and a little distressed, and said, "You are this age, but you don't have children yet." You and Song Zhao's marriage should be in a hurry. ”

Qingrong smiled and didn't say anything, only holding Zhige in his arms and teasing.

In the blink of an eye, it is the end of the year again, and the capital, which has been chaotic for nearly two years, is once again lively and calm.

Early in the morning, firecrackers rang out in unison, gongs and drums were noisy, and they resounded throughout the capital.

Watching the lively people come out of each house, they can see the wedding procession at the end of the alley, and the lively formation is ten miles of red makeup.

Qingrong sat in a sedan chair and re-entered the Wei State Mansion.

Wei Guogong and his wife stood at the door with a group of children, grandchildren, and daughters-in-law to greet their relatives.

Qingrong knelt down on the wedding hall, and heard the Duchess of Wei Guo crying: "Good child, good child, I hope you and Zhao'er will be ...... for a long time" She choked up with joy.

Qing Rongyao remembered the scene of marrying into the Song family back then, and he also had an indescribable sigh in his heart.

Song Zhao lifted Qingrong's hijab, and there were only two people in the room.

The red candle danced, reflecting the faces of the two people.

Song Zhao's eyes were full of water, full of joy, pity, and doting eyes, staring at Qingrong's slightly flushed face without turning around.

He said, "My little girl, please take care of me for the rest of my life." ”
