It was not yet the second day of the enthronement ceremony.

Normally, on this occasion, there are clothes that the palace internal affairs office sends to the banquet tomorrow. It was already late at night, and the eldest princess had not fallen asleep, her eyebrows were still awake. A candle flame next to it was flickering, and the eyes of the people around it were a little uncomfortable.

She had just returned this afternoon and received the news of her daughter's death.

Just such a daughter, although she is treated harshly on weekdays, how can she not have real feelings, since she has no feelings with the horse, the eldest princess has poured all her experience into this daughter, even if the steel is difficult to have no feelings, not to mention that Runyan has a six-month-old child in her womb.

"I've seen the princess", the maid who had been waiting by Jiang Runyan's side came out of the side room, holding a tray in her hand.

"These are all things that the county lord used before," the maid presented the things with red eyes, "the county lord's body has always been called by the princess's special order. It is said that the fetus is very stable, as long as it is carefully raised, there should be no big problem during production. What's more, it was less than six months at that time, so how was it born prematurely, and I had never seen any lady who was born prematurely in less than six months, not to mention that the county lord's body did not show signs of premature birth and redness? ”

What the maid meant couldn't be clearer.

However, the eldest princess did not continue to ask this question, but only looked at the handkerchief and clothes that Jiang Runyan had used before, and didn't know what she was thinking. The maid Xu saw that she was silent for a long time, and only said after a long time, "Princess? ”

"Okay, you go down, the palace will summon you over for something." The eldest princess waved her hand and half-propped herself on the table, looking a little tired.

The maid nodded, and could only go down.

——

The enthronement banquet was held the next day, but no one expected that at the moment before the drum was beating, something big happened in the Seven Kings' Mansion.

He was set on fire at night.

It stands to reason that a group of servants in the palace is on fire, and there are housekeepers and subordinates to take care of them, and many lives are lost even after burning a few rooms. But I don't know why, everyone in the Seven Kings' Mansion slept very deeply this night, including Wei Xi, who slept very deeply.

After a fire, the entire Seven Kings' Mansion ceased to exist.

When the guards reported the incident to Guan Ping, it was already dawn. The ceremonial officials on the side had already begun to read out the enthronement one by one, and even looked at it a second time - Guan Ping glanced at the guard, and said, "Block this matter first, and the people are not allowed to spread it today." ”

If you think about it step by step, it is difficult to think of the result. In the past, maybe Guan Ping thought it was the prince's heart was uneven, sat down, and guessed.

But now that they are all going to be fathers, think about it from the deepest results. Wei Xi harmed Jiang Runyan, and the eldest princess naturally knew it.

Wei Ci probably knew that the eldest princess could guess it, but the hole card in his heart was about the current court situation. He thought that the eldest princess needed him, and now he couldn't kill him as a prince, after all, the eldest princess was too deeply impressed in people's hearts - no one would think that she would regard a daughter as more important than her future power.

Guan Ping guessed out.

If the eldest princess was really not a good mother, she would not have agreed to her request back then, in order to keep the secret of her loss of virginity for Jiang Runyan. And she chose to kill the Seven Kings Mansion before the new emperor ascended the throne, and it was all over the house, if such a thing appeared on the day of the new emperor's accession to the throne, the people don't know what it would become.

In any case, this matter has to be suppressed first.

——

After the new emperor ascended the throne and worshiped hundreds of officials, it was some cumbersome Great Wei etiquette, until the sky was about to darken, and the new emperor wore the jade crown that symbolized the imperial power, and since then, Great Wei began Wei Chengnian.

Although Guan Ping suppressed the extermination of the Seventh Prince's family, it may only be ordinary people who can be suppressed, and paper can't contain the fire, that is, ordinary people have guesses about the fire in the early morning, not to mention the nobles who are very wide-eared.

Sheng Mingzhu sat on the water pavilion, the position was bright, and the scene was good, just enough to see the dancing girls below.

Lingzhu and Yun Niang sat on her side. According to the reason, although Yun Niang is the family of Shangshu, she has also been mentioned as a wife, but in the end, the rules of the Great Zhou Dynasty are still used, and the concubine cannot be mentioned as a wife. Because of Guan Ping's face and the fact that Mrs. Dingguo Hou is the daughter of Shangshu, no one dares to say no on this matter.

But on such occasions, she always has to be talked about.

But after all, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the scene was lively. Many officials will bring their families to come, Yun Niang has not followed Sheng Qian to any grand event since she came to Dawei, she is soft, and she naturally won't say anything on the surface, but in the end she is still a little lost in her heart. Moreover, on such a lively occasion, Sheng Mingzhu was pregnant, and she didn't dare to play with other girls' families.

With a wave of his hand, Guan Ping let people sort out such an occasion, as if the Sheng family had specially circled a stage to watch the play.

"This place is good, you can see everything clearly."

Yun Niang came to such an occasion for the first time, and she was obviously a little unaccustomed to it. After all, she didn't go out much, but she was afraid that there would be too many rudeness. Fortunately, the son-in-law arranged such a position, just sit quietly, but some people came to talk to them - now that Guan Ping is worth this value, he doesn't need Yun Niang and Sheng Mingzhu to get up.

All they had to do was sit quietly and echo a few words, not knowing what to say, just nodding and laughing.

After going back and forth like this a few times, it was also a little boring, just sent away the official Shangshu family, Sheng Mingzhu's original smile on his face immediately drooped, rubbed his face again, and took two sour dates on the table to eat, "Those times before the Dao, I thought that Guan Ping was going to go, and no one came to Guan Fu to see me, but now they seem to have become my good sisters." ”

"The world is bustling, and profits come and go." Lingzhu can see it clearly, "Now that my brother-in-law is a human being, he is no longer the original, and these people are no longer the original." ”

Sheng Mingzhu vomited the jujube core, and there was a sour feeling in his stomach, "You always say these crepe words, what does your little nephew look like?" Yun Niang on the side saw her like this, and knew that it was a pregnancy reaction again, so she hurriedly asked Jin Zhi to go down and bring the soup she had cooked in the morning.

Lingzhu looked at her sister and said, "What happened today, my sister still doesn't know?" ”

"What's the matter?" There are so many things going on these days, and any one of them can be regarded as a big event. The prince's forced palace is a big deal, right? What is a big deal compared to the last photos of the first emperor, what is a big deal when the new emperor ascends the throne, and now the people of the Great Wei Dynasty and even the courtiers, who else can remember the first prince?

"It is said that the family of the Seventh Prince was washed in blood by the enemy." Lingzhu Road.

She didn't know about Jiang Runyan, and from some political perspectives, it was a bit like her brother-in-law doing it. In fact, for some political reasons, it is naturally good to get rid of an opponent who does a lot of harm to oneself and does not benefit oneself. But none of the Seven Princes' family has a living mouth - even though Lingzhu has read a lot of books, he will be able to deal with the disadvantages of the times.

I can't help but think that person is too cold-blooded.

For a while, I was a little worried about my sister, if she was really such a cold-blooded person. Now her sister is in her prime, and she loves him. If he is old and decrepit in the future, will he pity it?

Sheng Mingzhu knew what she was thinking when she looked at Lingzhu's expression, and only shook her head, "I haven't heard that thing today—" Looking into the banquet hall again, he happened to see the eldest princess with a cold complexion, "But I can roughly guess who did it." "Wei Ci is not stupid, and the eldest princess is not stupid.

Now that the hope of pointing to Wei Ci to ascend the throne is gone, and her daughter is gone, how can the eldest princess let go of a female enemy.

He told Lingzhu about Jiang Runyan a few days ago, and said, "That Jiang Dajun Lord is arrogant, and he always has an arrogant attitude towards people, I don't like her very much", if it was just arrogance, it wouldn't be like this, in the final analysis, Jiang Runyan still wanted to harm her before, which is also one of the reasons why Sheng Mingzhu didn't sympathize with her very much.

"It's just a pity for her child, I saw a little blue and black baby being carried out that day. In less than June, the feet were not fully formed. ”

If Wei Xi really couldn't get used to the green hat that Jiang Runyan put on his head, why would he have gone earlier. After accepting the benefits given to him by the eldest princess, but waiting until now to attack a pregnant woman and an unborn child, it can only be said that it is a report and a report - the eldest princess is indeed ruthless, and used the life of the entire Seven Kings Mansion to bury Jiang Runyan.

But she also has no daughter, and there is pity for hateful people.

Everything in the world is like this.

——

"I heard that on the day of Runyan's dystocia, Master Hou had been to the palace, can you talk to the palace about the situation?"

Under the balcony, the two most powerful people in Dawei now looked at each other. Guan Ping lowered his head slightly, raised his eyes after a moment and said, "No matter what the situation is, the princess has already finished taking care of the aftermath for the county lord, is it still necessary to do this in between?" ”

"Yes." The eldest princess said, looking at Guan Ping again, Sheng Ming suddenly felt a little lonely pleading, "Master Hou tell me about it." ”

In the end, it was not a big deal, Guan Ping told everything he saw that day, and the eldest princess listened for a while, and then asked soon after, "Where is the child buried, does the Hou Ye know?" Guan Ping also told her. The eldest princess nodded, and only looked at Guan Ping after a long time, "I'm old now, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, I want to go to the gate to guard it, and I hope that the Hou Ye will say a few more kind words." ”

Guan Ping frowned slightly, "It's bitter cold outside the gate, the eldest princess doesn't have to." ”

The eldest princess shook her head, maybe because she was disheartened, maybe because of the other reasons. For this mortal enemy who used to be endless, now he can speak calmly, "I used to think a lot in my heart, and there are many more that I can't let go." But now that my only daughter has gone, I just feel that nothing is interesting. She always thinks of herself as a Tuoba person, unlike the noble girl of the Great Wei, and I want to take her bones there. ”

I have never been there in my life, and I can't always have regrets after I die. She thought in her heart that the struggle for power and profit was nothing more than for the sake of future generations, but now that the descendants are gone, all the power and profit struggles are not interesting.

Guan Ping knew that maybe the eldest princess wanted to make up for her daughter, but everyone was gone, and the compensation after death was nothing. It's also a matter for others, not to mention that the eldest princess going to the border is not a good thing for the Great Wei Dynasty, so she naturally won't refuse.

——

Sheng Mingzhu touched his stomach, it was not yet March, and it should not be the day to show her pregnancy. Xu is has eaten a lot in recent days, but it is slightly raised, and he touched the soup on the side, and just poured it down and stopped drinking, Yun Niang happened to look at her, "But this soup is a little cold, otherwise let the palace people take it hot." ”

This soup is not a delicacies of the mountains and seas, but some sweet and sour soup boiled by Yun Niang herself, Sheng Mingzhu has no appetite on weekdays, so she uses it to eat.

Sheng Mingzhu looked at the bowl of soup and didn't want to drink it.

It's not been three months, and she's already gained a lot of weight, how dare she continue to be fat.

The new emperor above has already begun to divide the blood of the deer, and Guan Ping, as the number one minister, naturally has it. The courtiers are friendly - what kind of charter will be in the future, no one knows yet.

The night wind is getting stronger, and the deer blood is very warm to the stomach.

Sheng Mingzhu and Yun Niang were naturally divided. Although there are also big supplements on weekdays, they can't compare to those in the Great Wei Palace, so Yun Niang gave some words to her two daughters, and said separately, "Lingzhu, you are young, don't drink too much." You are pregnant, drink less, drink some tocolytic pills every day, this deer blood wine rushes again, so as not to conflict. ”

‘

"Mother, you said so, it's better not to drink."

No matter what it is, it is a big tonic, no matter what Sheng Mingzhu said, Yun Niang still poured some for her, and Niang San drank a little. Yun Niang put down the wine cup, the wine was filled with deer blood, which was much stronger than the usual wine, her cheeks turned red, and after a while, she iced it with her hands, and looked at the moonlight in the sky, and smiled.

"In the past, I didn't go to Dawei, my mother was always afraid, but now that I see that you have a home, I am relieved."

Yun Niang smiled softly, and touched her little daughter's head again, "And you, it will be the year of Ji Lu soon, if there is a classmate in the academy who looks good, I will tell my mother as soon as possible." Otherwise, when the time comes, your father will mess with the mandarin duck score, don't blame me for not mentioning you before-" Yun Niang is deliberately teasing Lingzhu.

Lingzhu's face was red, she was always a little girl, no matter how calm she was on weekdays, she was always a little embarrassed when she heard her elders talk about her marriage, so she only got up from her position, "I'll go talk to my classmates." ”

"If you look at her like this, you just think I'm verbose" Yun Niang looked at her little daughter's back, smiled and complained to Sheng Mingzhu.

Sheng Mingzhu shook his head and smiled, "Just Xing Xu Niang makes fun of Lingzhu, don't Lingzhu be shy?" ”

Yun Niang drank some deer blood wine, her chest was a little hot, and she felt dizzy, so she asked Huang's mother to help herself, and said to Sheng Mingzhu, "You two sisters are naturally breathing out of one nostril, it's hard for me to work hard to raise you so big - I'll go cool by myself."

Xu was a little drunk, otherwise he would not have been able to say such a thing on such an occasion.

Yun Niang was originally born in the countryside, and only she and Lingzhu would say such things when she was there on weekdays, and she always had a soft attitude towards people, including her father. was really a little drunk, Sheng Mingzhu glanced at Huang's mother and motioned her to take care of it, Huang's mother nodded, and the two of them quickly went to the water pavilion

Sheng Mingzhu looked at it for a while, and only then did he take it back until he couldn't see the figure.

Yun Niang just took a sip, but Guan Ping drank a lot with the emperor just now, and now it is hot from her neck to her face. Walking all the way to the water pavilion, and being blown by this cool breeze, people raised their eyes to look up - she was looking at herself with a bright look, under the stars and moon, as if there were only two people left.

This long road of life has not yet been completed, Guan Ping only looks at her clothes blown up by the night wind, and her slightly thin body—but there are flesh and bones of the two of them in it. I just feel that it is complete, very complete.
