The princess did not come alone, she came with Mrs. Feng and other female dependents, carrying extremely rich and expensive gifts, such as thousand-year-old ginseng, He Shou Wu, the best Ganoderma lucidum from outside the country, etc., everything.

Feng Miaolian accepted it unceremoniously.

Mrs. Feng asked a few words sincerely, although it was uncomfortable, but she repeatedly asked her to take care, saying that everyone is still young, and there will be many opportunities in the future. Feng Miaolian thought to herself, she must have laughed a few words in her heart: Look, this is the end of competing with Miaozhi for the queen.

As for Princess Xianyang, she was in tears, sad, and kept comforting the queen. Feng Miaolian doesn't know where her sadness comes from, acting, it's too much, right?

Feng Miaolian didn't plan to give her a good face anymore, got up, and said lightly: "This palace is tired." ”

Serve tea to guests.

Princess Xianyang hurriedly collected her tears. Madame Feng also stood up.

Feng Miaolian's gaze fell on her face, Mrs. Feng was a little embarrassed, remembering that she and Princess Xianyang were advancing and retreating together, which was really a bit unsightly, so she stopped in place, "I still have a few words to say to Niangniang." ”

Seeing the opportunity, the princess hurriedly said: "When your mother and daughter get together, the concubine doesn't dare to disturb and retire." ”

The room was quiet, and the maidservants stood far away. Snacks, tea, steaming aroma on the table. Feng Miaolian sat on the chair, the sunlight spilled in from the window, and half of it fell on her face, as if covered with a faint layer of gold. It also made her pale face even more lifeless and dim. She had become very thin, and the fullness of her pregnancy was gone.

Mrs. Feng was a little uneasy, and asked cautiously: "Niangniang, you still have two days to get out of the confinement, so you can't be careless." If a woman does not recuperate well during the confinement period, she will be left with lifelong problems, and she will be very uncomfortable when she is old......"

Old?? How old is old?

Feng Miaolian looked at the woman in front of her, Mrs. Feng, she is in her fifties, right? Because of proper maintenance, the skin is still smooth and fair, but there is a kind of arrogance and coldness on the face that has gone through the years. When people get old, that's it, no matter how they are maintained, they can't be as smooth and clean as a little girl, and they will always render some colors that look uncomfortable. It's like a flower that blooms later, the brightness disappears, and slowly, little by little, it withers, the red will turn black, and the beauty will turn to ashes. However, before the ashes, there is always a transition, and that is the ugliest state when a flower withers.

Feng Miaolian slowly stood up: "Madam, have you ever observed the withering of a flower?" ”

Mrs. Feng was taken aback and puzzled.

Feng Miaolian's gaze fell on a pot of roses in the room. It was a dwarf rose that had been carefully pruned by a florist, less than two feet tall, and stood out on its own with only one large flower. The beauty of the peak of the flower has disappeared, and now, the petals around the flower are beginning to shrunk and glow a faint black.

"Look at this flower, when it blooms at the end, it dies. Flowers are not red for a hundred days, and people are not good for a thousand days. ”

Mrs. Feng was even more uneasy.

"...... You have to relax your mind, this misfortune is nothing, there have been concubines in the palace who have had difficult births over the years...... When I was younger, I had two miscarriages, but then I didn't have a good ......."

Feng Miaolian smiled sadly.

The woman opposite is nominally her mother, but how can there be a trace of sincere comfort in her eyes?? Ancient women were really good, in the final analysis, they were the real monogamy, what is a concubine? The concubine has neither financial power nor children's power, and even the children born belong to the eldest lady, and she can only be an aunt. Her Feng Miaolian's mother has been an aunt for life, and when she was born, she had to call Mrs. Feng her mother from the beginning.

It wasn't until she grew up, became Feng Zhaoyi, and said Queen Feng again, that she dared to call her "Mrs. Feng".

What sincerity can there be between each other?

Madam Feng observed her words, became even more uneasy, and lowered her voice: "Queen Mother, you must not fall, our Feng family is counting on you." Before I came, the lord repeatedly warned me and told you to rest and recuperate......"

"Is my father well?"

"Alas...... No more. He had been sick the other day, and then when he heard about you, he was bedridden......"

Feng Miaolian was shocked in her heart, "Father, is he no longer good?" ”

"Alas, the lord remembers you very much, and asks about you every day. We didn't dare to hide it from him, but the doctor said that he would not succeed, he would just stay up for a few days......"

Feng Miaolian realized why Mrs. Feng appeared with Princess Xianyang.

Empress Feng's child is gone, in the eyes of outsiders, her position is no longer so solid, and Feng Miaozhi has already fallen, it is impossible to turn back, and the Feng family has no more suitable adult daughter to be sent to the palace to be the queen again.

The position of the Feng family is in jeopardy.

Therefore, it is imperative to consolidate the relationship with the most powerful king of Xianyang in the court.

Relatives, family members, in fact, have always been the relationship of interest groups.

Feng Miaolian can't blame them for seeing the wind and steering the rudder, it is she, the helmsman, who did not grasp the direction of sailing.

Her voice was very flat: "Madam, I suggest that you still don't get too close to the princess of King Xianyang. ”

Mrs. Feng was surprised: "Why?" ”

The early summer wind blew up the drapery around it, slowly rolling it up, fluttering and fluttering. Feng Miaolian felt very cold, and her body trembled for a while.

"My children are gone, and they are the ones who are making trouble."

Madame Feng couldn't believe it.

She covered her mouth: "This ...... How is this possible...... How so? ”

Of course not. In the eyes of outsiders, she Feng Miaolian is the biggest adulterous concubine, she is spoiled and delicate, and she can't even tolerate her own sister, so she rushed out of the palace and was deposed.

Not only that, but he also instructed His Majesty to depose the crown prince and drive Princess Pengcheng out to remarry the frontier...... Those who really follow me prosper and those who disobey me die, in this world, what woman's heart will be darker than her? ?

Once one's own people hate their own people, they are a thousand times more unforgivable than outsiders.

Feng Miaolian understood this when she looked at Madam Feng's face. It turns out that over the years, they have never truly accepted themselves from the bottom of their hearts and forgiven themselves. Since the day Feng Miaozhi was deposed, he and the Feng family have become real enemies. Plainly, they don't dare to offend themselves, just to get some benefits from themselves. And now, I am in trouble, and I am panicking one by one.

Anyway, Master Feng is going to die, what does he have to do with this family? ?

She didn't feel any sadness either.

Mrs. Feng was shocked, her voice was very small, and she was trembling all the time: "Queen Mother...... Is this true?? Your Majesty, does he know? ”
