Chapter 108: Mother-in-law and Daughter-in-law Talk (I)
The two of them had been talking about the dark sky with great interest, and then Qin Sang came over to say: The fourth elder brother sent Su Peisheng to come over to pass the word, and the officials of Yangzhou Mansion held a banquet to welcome the arrival of the emperor, and the fourth elder brother accompanied him, so there was no need to wait for the fourth elder brother for dinner.
After listening to Qin Sang's words, Tong Jiashi and Wanru realized that it was already dark, and the two of them also felt a little hungry. So Tong Jiashi ordered someone to pass the meal, and she and Wanru continued to chat.
At the dinner table, Tong Jiashi recalled the future world that Wanru said today, and said with emotion, "I can't imagine that in just a few decades, China and the world will have such big changes, and I can't keep up with the pace of change of the times." ”
"The world is changing a little fast, but if you go to the 21st century, you will be able to adapt to it."
"I'm old, I'm in my sixties mentally, and I can't accept anything too new." Tong Jiashi laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Uh, you're in your sixties?" Wanru was surprised.
"Yes, I was in my thirties before, and now I'm nearly thirty, am I in my sixties?"
"Forehead ......" saw that Tong Jia's expression was a little lonely, and Wanru searched for words in her stomach to comfort her, "You are not old, as long as your heart is young, then you are not old." ”
"Hehe" Tong Jiashi smiled when he heard this, and wanted to reach out to pinch Wanru's face as before, but he didn't remember that this action was a little out of place halfway, so he took his hand back again, Wanru saw it, and hurriedly said, "It's okay, you can pinch it if you want, the age of our two lives is added together, and it is barely thirty years old." Much smaller than you, and besides, I'm used to you pinching my face. ”
Tong Jiashi laughed again after listening to Wanru's words: "Then you can also call me Eniang, I am also used to hearing you call me Eniang." ”
Wanru nodded busily, "Eniang, Eniang"
Tong Jiashi laughed again at the end of his cute behavior. After a day of inquiry, she already knew that Wanru's temperament was indeed as harmless as she appeared, and the two of them were half fellow countrymen. So she regained her old intimacy.
Bowing his head and taking a few sips of soup, Tong Jiashi wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, and then said, "Wanru, do you know history?" Is that the history we are in now? ”
Tong Jiashi didn't know anything about this history, although she also went to college, but at that time most of them studied Western studies, and the history was the 24th official history. However, she didn't finish college, and she naturally didn't learn the Qing history, which ranked last, and her understanding of this history came from rumors and legends, after all, the Qing Dynasty had just fallen at that time. The Chinese people have a deep impression of the Qing Dynasty.
Wanru nodded, "Yes." "She's not in vain as the fourth master, she hasn't read a lot of history books, and she has also read a lot of Qing Chuanwen, for those major events of Kangxi and Yongzheng Dynasty, she doesn't say that she has a clear mind, but she still knows it roughly.
"Do you know my end?" Tong Jiashi hesitated for a moment, but finally asked.
"Well, this" Wanru put down the chopsticks in her hand and said with a heavy face, "If it is according to history." Next year, that is, in the summer of the twenty-eighth year of Kangxi, you will die, and the day before you die, you will be canonized as the queen by Kangxi, that is, the third queen of Kangxi: Empress Xiaoyiren. You've had the shortest number of days in history. It's less than a day. Wanru told everything she knew.
Tong Jiashi accepted this result very calmly, and she laughed, "I didn't expect me to become the queen in the end." ”
Wanru looked apologetic and silent, she didn't know how to comfort Tong Jiashi, Tong Jiashi only had half a year to live, and she could only be silent at this time.
"So historically, I'll die next summer, right?"
"Yes." Wanru nodded.
"But I was going to die this month." Tong Jiashi said this very casually, as if he was talking about what to eat tonight, with a light tone.
And Wanru obviously didn't have Tong Jia's calmness, hearing this, she was so surprised that she almost fell off the stool, this action made Tong Jiashi laugh again, Tong Jiashi reached out to help Wanru, "Look at your surprise, I can't stand it than me." ”
Wanru looked at Tong Jia's smile on his face, and stammered, "What, how can it be good, it's good this month, it's gone?" No, not next year? She couldn't say the word "death" anyway.
"Hehe, my life is never in my hands, I also want to live for a while longer, I really don't feel at ease, and I can't bear you and Yinzhen." Tong Jia's face lost the bright smile just now, but replaced it with a wry smile, "But what can I do, the Empress Dowager gave me a love flower poison before she died, and I had to die." ”
Another secret! Wanru was shocked by this secret and almost short-circuited her brain, and she subconsciously repeated, "The Queen Mother? ”
"Yes, it's the Queen Mother, she is dead, and she wants to pull me to die together, and she didn't forget to give me a bowl of medicine before she died, and I can't help it."
After Wanru was shocked, her mind slowly began to flow smoothly, so she asked, "Why did you provoke the Empress Dowager?" ”
"I don't know how to provoke her, she didn't like me when I was a child, and when I entered the palace, she didn't like me even more, every time she looked at me, I felt that it was completely like looking at a dead person, and I had a daughter before, but it was gone less than a month after birth, and that was because when I was pregnant, the Queen Mother gave me medicine, which hurt my body, and after all these years, although I was so favored, I never had a child again. Moreover, when I was pregnant, the Empress Dowager drugged me, and the emperor also knew about it, but he acquiesced. Tong Jiashi told the old past in a calm tone, and her face was also very calm, only when she talked about her daughter who died young, Tong Jia's face showed a look of nostalgia and hatred.
Another secret! After accepting the two things that Tong Jia's imminent death and the Empress Dowager poisoned Tong Jia's, Wanru heard that the Empress Dowager had drugged Tong Jia's daughter and Kangxi still acquiesced, Wan was already a little numb when she was like this, no, it should be said that she was calm.
Regarding Tong Jia's daughter, many Qing Chuanwen also mentioned it, and Wanru probably understood the reason why the Empress Dowager drugged Tong Jia's family and Kangxi's acquiescence. Thinking of this, Wanru said, "Eniang, you don't have to be sad, I think I know the reason why the Empress Dowager drugged you and Kangxi's acquiescence, and later generations have also made a lot of speculations about this."
"Oh, you tell me about it." Tong Jiashi was a little curious.
Wanru told her guess, or because of the Tong family, the Tong family's power is too great, there has been a queen and an emperor, and the emperor has already set up a prince, so Tong Jia's family can no longer have sons.
This set of rhetoric is similar to Tong Jia's own speculation, for many years, she has used this to comfort herself, to comfort her daughter who died young, "It's similar to my guess, when I think of my daughter who died early, I use this to comfort myself, she is not wrong, but the wrong fetus was cast in my belly." ”
"Eniang, didn't you say that you treat me as your own daughter? I'm your daughter. Wanru comforted Tong Jiashi, anyway, Tong Jiashi treated her like her own daughter.
Tong Jiashi pinched Wanru's face, smiled and said, "Yes, I came to see you as my own daughter, and Yinzhen as my own son." Eniang has no biological daughter, but there are still the two of you, and there are no regrets. ”
Wanru rubbed Tong Jia's hand against her face, and then said, "The fourth master and I also treat you as filial piety as our own mother, but there is anything else I don't know about my mother, you tell me one piece, so as not to surprise me again." ”
So Tong Jiashi told Wanru the details of the Empress Dowager's drug and the love flower poison, as well as Kangxi's attitude and her plans, when Tong Jiashi said this, she was a little excited, for a long time, she could only hold these things in her heart and bear it alone, and now with Wanru, a person who is equal to her and close to her thoughts, she can finally vomit it quickly.
And Wanru was dumbfounded despite her preparations, her mouth was wide open and never closed, she didn't expect things to be like this, Xiaozhuang's actions, Kangxi's actions, and Tong Jia's actions, these three people brought her too much shock.
This is a secret story of the palace, this is the real royal life, Wanru suddenly felt chills, she was still too simple, and her glass heart couldn't accept it.
After Tong Jiashi finished speaking, Wanru came back to her senses for a long time, realizing her gaffe, Wanru quickly closed her mouth, and then opened it again, wanting to say something, but she couldn't speak, and Tong Jiashi was silent during this period. Quietly waiting for Wanru to digest this matter.
Wanru thought for a while, and Wanru finally found a breakthrough, "Eniang, looking at Kangxi's attitude now, I also look at you very seriously, and you also know that Kangxi spoils you, so why didn't you tell Kangxi when Aunt Su Mala sent the medicine over?" How can you just drink it without knowing what it is?! Speaking of the last point, Wanru was deeply worried about Tong Jia's IQ at that time.
"I regret it now, why did I drink that bowl of medicine in a daze" Tong Jiashi covered her face with her hands in pain, she regretted this matter for a long time, even if she tore her face and told Kangxi, even if Kangxi couldn't beat the Queen Mother, she still drank it in the end, but at least she didn't have to regret it now, she should also fight.
Seeing Tong Jia's painful appearance, Wanru couldn't bear to continue to interrogate, and comforted, "I don't know what the Empress Dowager has in mind, I have to poison you, but since the Empress Dowager has a firm attitude, I think even Kangxi can't disobey her will." After all, this is not the political affairs of the previous dynasty, but the post. Palace. Kangxi was brought up by the Empress Dowager, and he could not disobey the Empress Dowager's will.
