Chapter 250: The Day of the Sacrifice

Shen Xingwan began to communicate with the Shen family little by little, planning what to do next.

Except for the undercurrent surging that night, the emperor didn't say a word about Shen Xingwan.

Every day in the palace, they are either drinking and dancing, or having fun with a concubine, and it seems that they are immersed in a rare time when they are not in court.

Since he doesn't move, the forces under him can only secretly poke and poke and make small moves.

What made Mrs. Shen uneasy was the recent change in Dongchang people.

Xiao Wujian said with some worry, "Someone from Dongchang has gone to see the former crown princess." ”

After the death of the former crown prince, the crown princess was overly sad and finally fell into Buddhism, and cultivated in the royal temple without asking about the world.

The old lady's eyes flashed, "I shouldn't find anything." ”

The crown princess and the prince were childhood sweethearts, and even if she was not in good health, the prince still insisted on marrying her.

After getting married, sure enough, the crown princess had no children for two years.

Later, when the former prince and the old lady's son had an accident together, the East Palace was still childless on the surface.

Not even a girl.

This is also the reason why the emperor has treated her, the former crown prince's aunt, well on the surface for so many years.

The crown prince had an accident that year, and Empress Xie died half a year later.

The current emperor was recorded in the name of the queen mother, who was still Mu Guifei, successfully ascended the throne, and married the current Empress Xiao Xie.

That's a bad deal.

The Xie family and the emperor seem to have a close relationship, but in fact, they are separated by the death of the previous queen and the former prince.

Xiao Wuji said, "Since you started to investigate, you have noticed something." If this is the case, it is not only Xing Wan who is in danger, but the entire Shen family. ”

"It seems that most of the news was revealed to the emperor by the Duke of Lu Guo or Min Shizi that night. After all these years, they have been hiding it very well, and I wonder where they know about it. ”

The old lady's expression sharpened in an instant, "It's okay to know, I've endured it for so many years." ”

At the same time, she lost her son and nephew, and no one knows how she survived.

"Arrange for the people of the Shen family here to be ready to retreat at any time." The old lady said calmly, "Yes or no, we will know soon." ”

On the day of the Lantern Festival, the whole capital is very lively, and there are lanterns and lion dances and dragon dances on the streets.

Every household is also full of lights, but the Shen Mansion is elegant and quiet.

The old people of the Shen family all know that the Lantern Festival Day is the sacrifice day of the Shen family's amazing talent but Shen Sanye, who died early.

Of course, it is also the festival day of the former prince.

It's just that once a son of heaven and a courtier, no one dared to mention the former prince for a long time.

Old Madam Shen first wore plain clothes, recited the Sutra for a long time in the small Buddha hall, and burned paper money for her dead son.

"After so many years, my mother finally wants to avenge you and let the truth of that year be revealed to the world."

"Mother picked a pair of very good children for you, you hugged Mochen when you were a child, and you haven't seen it in Xingwan. But she is smart and clever, and I believe you will like her. ”

"Thou art in heaven to keep them safe."

The old lady didn't come out of the small Buddha hall until the afternoon, and Shen Qingran came over to support her, "Grandmother, the carriage is ready." ”

The old lady got into the carriage.

As the carriage drove toward the royal temple, the old lady fell into a memory, "I haven't seen that child for a long time. ”

Although she is the crown prince, she has always been close to her aunt.

Queen Xie has always been strict with him because he is the crown prince, but the old lady is more indulgent to him, taking him out of the palace to play, and taking him to ride a horse.

Before he left, he went to Shen's house for dinner, and joked with the old lady, saying that he would have a daughter in the future, and let the old lady teach her kung fu.

His daughter wants to be the most heroic princess.

It's a pity she didn't wait.

Shen Qingran didn't know what to say, so he had to comfort, "It's all over, and the prince in heaven definitely doesn't want to see you so sad." ”

The old lady's eyes flashed with anger, this matter could not be passed.

The crown prince and her son did not die by accident at all, but from an elaborate murder.

It's just that when she finds out the clue, the emperor has ascended the throne and the overall situation has been decided.

She could only endure it.

The carriage soon arrived at the temple, and the old lady went straight to the Buddhist hall where the prince's tablet was enshrined.

Kneeling in front of the tablet was a thin woman dressed in plain clothes.

The old lady said with a complicated expression, "Princess, don't come unharmed." ”

The crown princess turned around, her face was not powdered, and she was pale and thin, so she made a Buddhist salute to the old lady, "The master gave me a call to meditate, and the old lady told me to meditate." ”

The old lady looked at the things she brought and placed them in front of the tablet, and the meditation monk glanced at them, all of them were the prince's favorite food, "After so many years, do you remember?" ”

The old lady said, "I dare not forget it every day." ”

The monks in the temple began to chant scriptures for the prince, and the two knelt aside and listened quietly.

Suddenly, the emperor walked in and personally gave the former prince three pillars of incense.

The two saluted the emperor, and the emperor waved his hand to signal that he did not need to.

waited until the chanting was over, and then the emperor spoke with his hands behind his back, "I suddenly remembered the third brother, so let's take a look." ”

At that time, he ranked third among the prince's brothers.

The old lady said with a faint expression, "Your Majesty has a heart." ”

The emperor said with a deep gaze, "It's a pity that the third brother didn't leave a son and a half daughter, if he has a child, he is probably as old as Jing Chao." ”

The old lady lowered her eyes and did not speak, and the meditation lay man still turned a deaf ear to chanting the scriptures.

The emperor also seemed to just mention it so casually, and did not stay here for long, and soon returned to the palace.

"The old lady came to me for a cup of tea." ”

The host said that she was not over and her heart was not quiet.

So she just lived in the back mountain, followed her homework and recited scriptures every day, and did not officially become a monk.

Along the way, she coughed several times.

The old lady couldn't help but say, "You also have to take care of your body, I'll let Langzhong come over and show you." ”

The meditation monk personally served a bowl of hot tea to the old lady, "I know my body, I can last so long, it depends on that breath." ”

Childhood sweethearts, young masters and husbands and wives, love and affection. The prince died when their relationship was right, how could she let it go.

Back then, she almost almost went with the prince, but it was the old lady who said that the prince died tragically, leaving her life.

She has to hold on, watching the prince's revenge be avenged, so that she can be blinded.

Not to mention a child.

Her pregnancy is in great danger, and as a prince, she can't live without children.

So in the end, she personally persuaded the prince to go to the side concubine's room.

What she asked for was not to be by his side when she was alive and to be with him when she died.

She is also a girl from everyone's aristocracy, and she knows from the moment she marries the prince that she can't dominate the prince.

But she was willing, it was the little brother who grew up with her.

She always thought that she would walk in front of the prince, but she didn't expect the final ending to be so tragic.

When the crown prince died, the side concubine was two months pregnant.

She thought that the prince of time was in the absence of the prince, and he always had to leave his blood.

Love someone to the extreme, but that's it.

She loves the child who has half the blood of the prince, Wu and Wu.
