Chapter 352: Empress Qin
"Hey, my sister went early, so I have to worry more about her." The queen pretended to sigh.
For those who don't know, it really will be because she is a selfless loving mother.
"Niangniang is really the most virtuous and virtuous woman in the world."
In the face of Concubine De's deliberate compliment, the expressions of the women in the palace were either positive or negative, not the same.
However, Yin Jingrui was expressionless throughout the whole process, neither objecting nor agreeing, as if he had nothing to do with him.
The queen saw that she really couldn't find anything, so she was in no mood.
She casually said a few modest words to Concubine De, and then pulled Su Yiyi to talk about something else.
It's nothing more than how the two of them live in Changguo, and they have suffered along the way.
Su Yiyi answered them one by one, and when the queen heard that she was more than two months pregnant, she was even more happy, and immediately took out a few pieces of her jewelry and gave them to Su Yiyi.
The gentle attitude doesn't seem to be like her anymore.
In fact, the queen did this for a reason, she was not the emperor's original match, and she had always regarded Yin Jingrui, who was born by Queen Qin, as a thorn in her side and a thorn in her flesh.
Although her son is now the crown prince, she has never thought of stopping suppressing Yin Jingrui.
Su Yiyi's identity Emperor Chen knew, and she naturally knew that thinking that Yin Jingrui actually married such a lowly woman, she couldn't ask for it, so now she naturally has to treat Su Yiyi well and confirm her identity as the eldest princess, lest the emperor choose another concubine for Yin Jingrui.
It can be said that the queen still knows the emperor very well, but what she doesn't know is that the emperor has already mentioned this matter, but Yin Jingrui refused.
A few people chatted, and the time passed quickly, and after a while, Laixi reported outside that the emperor had brought the crown prince and all the princes over.
The queen hurriedly led everyone out to greet her.
Emperor Chen looked at his wife and concubines in harmony, and his children were in groups, and he also had a smile on his face.
After everyone saluted, several princes had time to come up and greet Yin Jingrui.
In front of the emperor, no matter how much they dislike Yin Jingrui, these people will not show it, they greet Yin Jingrui cordially, looking like a deep brotherhood.
The emperor watched this scene with satisfaction, and after a while, the queen let everyone sit down.
During the banquet, everyone temporarily put aside their calculations, and it was lively, as if they were really a family without any mustard.
After eating, the emperor left, leaving Yin Jingrui and the others to chat.
However, Yin Jingrui had nothing to talk about with these people, and after a while, he casually found an excuse, said goodbye to everyone, and left with Su Yiyi.
However, after going out, he did not immediately take Su Yiyi out of the palace, but pulled her to shuttle between the palaces.
Since returning to Chenguo, his face has returned to the indifference and indifference of the first time he met, Su Yiyi doesn't know why he is like this, but he also understands that he should have remembered some bad memories.
She didn't dare to ask more, and walked quietly behind him.
Soon, Yin Jingrui took her to a palace.
Looking at the scale of this palace, it should be seen that the people who once lived here should have a noble status, but now because of neglect, the whole palace looks a little dilapidated and old.
In fact, according to the geographical location of this palace, it should not be so desolate, but it is true, although the general outline is still intact, the mottled red paint can still show that it has not been inhabited for a long time.
Walking in, there is no running water in the rockery in the yard, the grass is overgrown, and the cobwebs are all over, so it can be seen that no one has been here for a long time.
Su Yiyi was stunned for a moment, and secretly glanced at Yin Jingrui beside her, and had already guessed in her heart.
Yin Jingrui led her through the dirty floor tiles and opened a door to the main hall.
"Squeak-"
After the screeching of the wooden door, a brief dust was raised, revealing the room as it was.
There were tables, chairs and furniture inside, but they were already covered with a thick layer of dust, and Su Yiyi was choked by the dust raised and coughed constantly.
Yin Jingrui didn't care about him as usual, he just glanced at the room with a sad and heavy gaze, and then spoke lightly in Su Yiyi's cough.
"Do you know who used to live here?"
His voice was too sad and heavy, and Su Yiyi couldn't help but say, "Who." ”
In fact, as early as when she stepped into this palace, she could almost guess that this should be the former residence of Yin Jingrui's mother, Empress Qin.
It's just that before Yin Jingrui didn't say it, she didn't want to say it first, maybe, maybe she just thought too much.
She comforted herself.
Still, it's clear that the facts always hurt.
"Here, it used to be the palace of my mother, the queen of Chenguo." Yin Jingrui said with a flat expression.
Before, he had never taken the initiative to mention to Su Yiyi about his affairs in Chenguo, and the only thing Su Yiyi knew about this woman was only an introduction in the information prepared for her by Emperor Chang at the beginning.
The former empress Qin died of an emergency ten years ago.
The explanation of a few numbers completely sums up the life of a woman.
Su Yiyi's heart couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Yin Jingrui was completely immersed in his thoughts, and he said in a low voice, "It's just that ten years ago, she died here...... I was only thirteen years old. ”
Although his voice was still flat and unwavering, Su Yiyi was keenly aware of the grief in his words, and the redness in his eyes was getting stronger and stronger.
And the clasped hands hidden in the sleeves.
"Husband, you still have me." She didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only quietly step forward, forcefully break the protruding hand of the green tendons he was pinching, and put her own hand in his palm.
Such Yin Jingrui inexplicably distressed her.
Think about what she was doing when she was thirteen?
She is still hiding in the arms of her parents and crying because of some trivial things, but he, at that age, lost his mother and struggled to survive in this place of intrigue.
She held his hand tightly, as if that would give him some strength.
"Although I don't know what happened, I wasn't by your side at that time, and I couldn't erase your sadness, but now that we are husband and wife, I will always be with you in the future."
Listening to her gentle words of comfort, Yin Jingrui's own heart, which was full of loneliness and anger, suddenly warmed up.
yes, he's not alone anymore.
She is his wife, life and death, honor and disgrace, they are all connected.
He raised his hand, brushed her face lightly, and said lovingly, "Okay." ”
"Then you promise me that you have to tell me anything, although I can't help you, but at least I can accompany you to be sad." Su Yiyi looked at him pleadingly.
"Silly girl." He moved and pulled her into his arms.
This woman is so distressing.
After a long time, he finally regained his composure and said, "Wait for me first." ”
As he spoke, he walked to the cage by the wall, not knowing what he was rummaging through.
Su Yiyi waited quietly, and after a while, he could see him take out a brocade box, "Let's go, let's go back." ”
Although Su Yiyi was curious about what he was holding, he thought that it should be a relic left to him by Empress Qin.
She pretended to turn a blind eye very considerately, followed him, and the two quickly left the palace.
