154 Be free as you are
"Since it's a misunderstanding, it's good to make it clear, let's get up quickly." The old lady was very kind, sat at the dining table, and said with a smile, "It's just that you don't have to prepare so many meals, I can't eat alone, just be light in the morning, what do you eat, just send me one here." ”
Zhao said yes, and said, "Mother, granddaughters-in-law, and aunts are all waiting outside the courtyard gate, as if to greet you." ”
The old lady had already moved her chopsticks and said with a smile: "It's better to invite the children to come in and eat together, what a waste of so many things when they are cold." ”
Zhao did not obey this time, the food she carefully prepared, where are the people outside the door qualified to eat, even if she is willing to give it to her daughters-in-law and grandchildren, it is not suitable at this time.
The old lady didn't insist, but said: "I still have to bother you for a few days before you go back to Yuanzhou, if you do this every day, you should attract resentment, you don't have to come to me to serve, the children are more comfortable, everything is free." ”
"Yes."
"In fact, the past has passed, but it has been separated for ten years, and there is no contact in the middle, and when I see you, I can only think of the events of the past." The old lady looked at it lightly, and her temperament was the same as Min'er in the Shangyang Palace, "But don't worry, I don't care anymore." ”
Zhao's eyes are fixed, don't care? I don't care why I deliberately brought it up, she was deliberately reminding herself, don't forget what she did to them ten years ago? The little scumbag in Shangyang Palace, sure enough, was taught by this old thing, and this tepidly said knife-like words, which seemed to be friendly, but in fact, he only regarded people as dust, and the ancestors and grandchildren were really exactly the same.
"Do you want to eat together?" The old lady asked, "Otherwise, go and get busy, there are so many things at home, I have to go out after eating, and you don't have to accompany me." ”
Zhao asked stiffly: "Where is my mother going, the concubine is preparing a carriage and horses for you, but you are going to enter the palace?" ”
The old lady faintly: "Go to the General's Mansion." ”
Grandmother originally wanted to say more, the palace would be very busy today, but she felt that there was no need to mention it to the Zhao family, so she didn't say anything. There was only breakfast, and it was only a few bites, not because he was afraid that the Zhao family would be poisoned, nor that he had no appetite, or because he deliberately responded to her, anyway, if he didn't do these things, the Zhao family would also regard himself as a mortal enemy.
And today's palace is indeed busy, at this time, Han Meiren has just entered the Shangyang Palace, Wang Jieyu came in a hurry, everyone was nervous and angry, Lin Zhaoyi scolded: "You are getting more and more postureful, dare to love that if the lady concubine doesn't come today, you won't have us in your eyes?" ”
Wang lowered his eyebrows and said: "Hong'er made a fuss in the morning, the child is getting more and more stubborn, and the concubine is ......."
"If you don't show off that you have a son, your mouth will rot, will it?" Lin Zhaoyi hated so much that she wanted to do it, but was stopped by Sun Xiurong, and Qingya came with the palace maid, holding the tea in the hand stove, and said with a smile, "The ladies come early, and you have to wait, when the queen and Han Meiren finish talking, the slaves and maids will immediately lead the way for all the maids." ”
Lin Zhaoyi gathered the clothes on her body and asked, "Mama Yun, what happened?" ”
It can be seen that Concubine Shu's affairs are still firmly blocked, and it is undeniable that Concubine Shuniang has certain means to govern the harem, but unfortunately in terms of interests, she is destined to not stand with the queen. However, at this moment, Qingya had already received Min'er's instructions, and said generously: "Han Meiren has an affair with someone, and the queen wants to review this matter." ”
As soon as the words came out, there was an uproar, and it was only after Qingya coughed a few times that the concubines quieted down. She saw that everyone's faces changed, this is a capital crime, how can she not be afraid.
"Really?" Lin Zhaoyi didn't dare to believe it, but following the direction pointed by Sun Xiurong, the beauties who lived with the Han family who were firmly "watched" by Ben were all relieved and even cried, otherwise they would be forced to keep secrets, and they were worried that others would implicate themselves by leaking secrets, and they would not be able to live in peace for the rest of their lives.
"Mama Yun, what will happen to Han Meiren?" Sun Xiurong asked.
"The ladies will know in a while, and the slaves and maids are not easy to say." Qingya said, and ordered the palace maids to serve hot tea hand stoves for everyone to keep warm.
At this moment, in the Shangyang Palace, Min'er slowly walked down the steps, the door of the palace has been closed, and the cold wind will not pour in again, but the Shangyang Hall is too big, if it is as warm as the sleeping hall, it takes a lot of charcoal.
But when Min'er walked up to Han, she saw her shivering, as if she was very cold.
Behind them, the palace maids appeared, and they placed a chair under the throne, a stove was placed on the side of the chair, and a high table was put down, and after putting some things on the coffee table, they quickly withdrew without waiting for the queen's orders.
"Come and sit, don't kneel on the ground, it's too cold on the ground and it's not good for your body." Min'er was very kind, and even took Han's hand, in fact, she didn't recognize this one at all, but when she saw it, she had the impression that she had seen it among the concubines. Almost a stranger, she has to decide the life and death of others and the child in her womb.
"Niangniang......" Han Shi trembled, but was still brought to the chair to sit down, she saw a bowl of black decoction on the table, her heart tightened suddenly, the chair seemed to be pierced with needles, she immediately stood up, trying to stay away.
"Sit down, you're not in good health, and I heard that you haven't eaten well these days." Min'er just looked at her, and it was clear that she was the young one, but Han Meiren looked too pitiful.
Han had to obey and sit down nervously, but before she sat down, Min'er arrived: "Everyone else is waiting on the shore, we can't delay too long, your matter will have a result immediately, but how to choose it." ”
"Queen Mother, are there any options for ministers and concubines?"
"This bowl of abortion pills, you drink it, and nothing has happened to me." Min'er pointed to the bowl of black decoction and said, "If you are willing to give up the child, you can save your own life." ”
Seeing that Han shook her head again and again, shaking so much that the hairpin on her bun was about to fall, she got up again and retreated, but then pounced again, knelt on the ground and grabbed Min'er's skirt and cried: "Niangniang, can you give birth to the child, you will kill me when she is born, please don't kill my child, please ......"
"What about that person, why don't you ask about that person's life and death?"
"He gave the abortion pill to the concubine earlier than you......" Han cried heartbreakingly, "but the child is innocent." ”
Min'er stepped back and said calmly: "This child is born, you die, and then how will this child live?" You think you have given life to your child, but no, you are letting your child suffer in the world. ”
Han fell to the ground weakly and said desolately: "Everyone else said, Niangniang, you lost a child, but you are not sad at all, I didn't believe it, but now I believe it." The concubine also understands the truth of what Niangniang said, but the child is in the belly, how ruthless can she give up him, Niangniang may be able to do it, but the concubine would rather die with him than give him up for her own survival. ”
"What about the emperor?" Min'er asked, "How can you be worthy of the emperor?" ”
Han Shi bit his lip tightly, his face full of pain when he was holding back his crying, and when he finally opened his mouth, he said: "I'm afraid that in the emperor's memory, there is no such person as a concubine, I was dedicated to the emperor by the state capital, Niangniang...... I could have lived a better life than I have now. ”
When the emperor led his troops through countless states and counties, many women in the palace were brought to the capital all the way to the capital, and few of them were willing to marry the emperor, but some people were content with the current glory and wealth, but Han's heart still yearns for a free and easy life.
Min'er has no intention of pursuing the affection between Han and the guard, that guard is certain to die, but the person in front of her, if she chooses to drink the medicine to save her life, Min'er will not hesitate to hand her over to the law, but she would rather die in ten months, and she also wants to give birth to a child, even if it is unreasonable and does not consider the future of the child, so she has fulfilled her last responsibility for her life.
Min'er sighed softly: "I let you leave the palace alive, but you must die in front of everyone." Min'er said, picked up the medicine on the table and took a sip, Han's eyes were so shocked that her eyes were about to bulge, but Min'er said, "This is not poison, the jujube soup mixed with black rice juice is very sweet and delicious." ”
Seeing that Han was stunned, Min'er picked up the things on the side and gave it to her, and said, "Put this in your mouth, wait until you pour this bowl of soup in front of everyone, bite it and spit out the blood and pretend to faint, someone will drag you away." Then you can take your child away and fly away, but you will never see the father of the child, and your relatives in your hometown will never see him. ”
Han swallowed his saliva and looked at the queen in disbelief: "Niangniang, you are here, you want to let go of the concubine." ”
Min'er said, "Otherwise? I'm not afraid that you will go outside to stir up trouble, because then you will do your own evil, and you won't be able to live without waiting for the emperor or me to do it. ”
Han Meiren finally woke up, and kowtowed to Min'er again and again, crying so much that she was in tears, saying that she would repay the queen for being a cow and a horse in the next life.
Min'er only said lightly: "Get up, don't get too excited, it's not good for your child." I will not kill you and your children, but I will also accumulate blessings for my own departed children. ”
She asked again, "Are you ready?" ”
Han suddenly became resolute, she secretly escaped last night, and she also risked her life, at this moment, the door was open to let her go, how could she hesitate.
Seeing the weak woman showing a strong expression, Min'er felt at ease in her heart, and said with a smile: "I hope that one day they can be free like you." ”
Han didn't understand this, Min'er had already called the palace maid to remove the chair and heater and put the decoction on the ground, and she sat on the top of the head, opened the door of the Shangyang Palace, and summoned the concubines who had been freezing on the shore for a long time to enter the hall.
