373, enmity and hatred
Shen Ciwu was somewhat sympathetic to Danyang.
is not only sympathetic to her, but also sympathy for all the women who can't break free from the shackles in the feudal society, can only compromise and be willing to be puppets.
But Danyang is different from them in that she knows how to fight back.
She knows how to use her own strength to get what she wants and take revenge on what she wants to get revenge.
Shen Ci listened to her quietly finish talking about the anguish in her heart, and when she took off her guard, he asked her coldly, "So, do you think it's worth it?" ”
Danyang was slightly stunned, "Is it worth it?" What's not worth it? Anyway, my life has been ruined a long time ago. ”
"No, your life has just begun." Shen Ci shook his head worriedly, "You have suffered so much in Beidi, and now you have your own children, and this palace is also a person with children, and a mother's love for her children will not be fake." No matter how much you hate it, you still want to give your child a happy life. ”
"You will give your life to protect your children. In that case, why do you have to be angry with the emperor? You know that with Beidi's strength to fight against the Qi Dynasty, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, do you think about what will happen to your children if you are defeated in the future? ”
Danyang, who was blinded by hatred, rarely showed a glimmer of hope in his eyes when he mentioned his child.
Shen Ciwei continued: "You must know that this time, if the emperor and the empress dowager do not want to let you go, they will detain you in the Qi Dynasty, and while you are away, send envoys to Beidi to make your son's life story public. Then your wishful thinking will come to naught, and you will die, and your children will die. ”
"Even if you make a fuss like that in the Jinluan Palace today, have you seen the emperor say the next heavy word to you? Maybe you think in your heart that the emperor is jealous of Beidi and doesn't want to go to war with Beidi. But now, you know that the emperor knows everything, and this battle can be won without a fight, but he still tolerates you, what do you think he is for? ”
She slowed down and said word by word: "Just because, you are his eldest sister." ”
Danyang is not a cold-blooded person, on the contrary, she can hate it so much, which shows that she is a person with very strong feelings.
She hated it so much that the Qi Dynasty had completely ignored her all these years, leaving her alone in a foreign land.
And the reason why she hates these things also shows that she cares in her heart?
If you don't care, so many years have passed, the first emperor is dead, where is the hatred?
She never thought that her demons and obsessions for so many years would be solved by Shen Ci's worrying words.
Shen Ci was worried that she was speechless, and gently put his hand on her shoulder and patted it, "As long as you want, Qi Dynasty will always be your home." ”
"After so many years in Beidi, you still haven't been used to their barbarian life of hairy and blood-drinking, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have asked the Imperial Dining Room to bring you those dishes when you're in the palace. This palace asked the old people who served in the palace, and those were your favorite dishes when you were young. ”
yes, this is still her home for as long as she wants.
Later that day, Shen Ciwu took Danyang to Xianshou Palace to see the Queen Mother.
When the Queen Mother saw that she was coming, she couldn't believe it for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she thought that Danyang was coming to her for trouble.
Shen Ci said worriedly: "Queen Mother, the eldest princess has something to talk to you about, and the concubine is waiting outside." ”
Shen Ciwu took Qingzhu out of the dormitory and closed the door for the two of them.
Danyang and the Queen Mother looked at each other for a moment and said, "I have something I want to ask you." Can you tell me that? ”
The Queen Mother bowed her head, and Danyang said: "On that day, why did you persuade me to marry Beidi?" With the prosperity of the Zhu family at that time, you can completely ignore the first emperor and not use it to talk to me about this. ”
"I have been raised under your knees since I was a child, and I have grown up with the emperor since I was a child. The kindness you do to me won't be fake. But I just can't figure it out, why are you doing this to me? ”
The Queen Mother shook her head and sighed: "What happened back then is a foregone conclusion, if the mourning family doesn't come forward to persuade you, do you think your results will be much better than now?" ”
"The first emperor is determined to ask you to go and kiss, and the mourning family has repeatedly persuaded him, but the first emperor's attitude is very tough, and he can't listen to what the mourning family says. What do you let the mourning family do? The mourning family can only come forward to be this bad person, because only in this way will you feel better in your heart. ”
Danyang sneered, "What kind of crooked reasoning are you?" ”
Queen Mother: "Maybe you think this is a crooked reason, but have you ever thought about it, if the first emperor has been hiding it from you, when you wake up one day and are sent to the sedan chair without knowing anything, what will your state of mind be at that time?" You'll only hate more than you already have! ”
"Over the years, the mourning family has persuaded the first emperor countless times to let her take you back. But later, the first emperor's health deteriorated day by day, and the Qi Dynasty also experienced unprecedented turmoil. This came and went, and things were delayed. ”
"Later, when the emperor ascended the throne, the first thing the mourning family did was to mention to the emperor that he wanted to take you back to the palace. But at that time, you didn't come back to the funeral of the first emperor, and you didn't return the letter to your family, and I heard that you had given birth to a son, and followed the leader of Beidi with all your heart. Therefore, it is not easy for the emperor to welcome you back to the palace. ”
"At that time, we all thought that you had accepted that kind of life, and it might be better for you to stay with Beidi, to stay with your husband and children."
The Queen Mother said so many words freely, but Danyang only listened to one sentence.
"A letter from home? When did the palace send me a letter? ”
The Queen Mother sighed: "If it weren't for the fact that you said that those family letters were all returned intact, if you were not so stubborn and said that you wanted to come back, the mourning family would not let you stay in Beidi alone for so long!" ”
"Although you are not the biological flesh and blood of the mourning family, the mourning family has raised you since childhood, and has taken care of you meticulously, and has regarded you as their own daughter. How can the mourning family allow their daughter to suffer outside? ”
Danyang: "How could I not have said it?" I don't know how many letters I have sent back over the years, and each one tells you how much pain I have. But you haven't replied to me a single letter......"
The Queen Mother was stunned, got up and walked to the sealing box, opened the lock, took out a thick stack of envelopes from it and handed it to Danyang.
Danyang opened the envelopes, and the letters inside were all letters written by the Queen Mother to her.
And each letter shows her concern for Danyang. She was eager to know if Danyang was doing well in Beidi, and had said more than once that if she encountered any grievances, she only needed to say it, and she would find a way to take her back.
But Danyang did not receive any of these family letters.
And with vermilion pen and ink on it, a big cross was drawn, as if she had returned it.
