In the tenth year of Emperor Tai'an's reign and the ninth year of Anping, Emperor Taishang died of illness in Taixu Palace at the age of seventy-one.

The bells rang and filled the city.

Emperor Tai'an discussed with the hundred officials, and set the temple number as 'Zhaozong' for the Emperor Taishang, and the spirit was mourned.

In the midst of the crowd of cries, several people in the Jingyang Hou Mansion cried very sadly, and Concubine Shu's originally well-maintained black hair was half white in just a few days.

After Emperor Tai'an succeeded to the throne, the Marquis of Jingyang Mansion was squeezed to the edge, and life was not easy, but it was able to sit on the cold bench peacefully, or the new emperor was hindered by the face of the Emperor Taishang and gave Concubine Shu face.

Although ten years are about to pass, who knows if the new emperor will liquidate them?

Even if it is not liquidated, the Jingyang Marquis Mansion will no longer be reused, and it will only be more and more crowded, and it will be depressed, waiting for when the emperor will take away the title and disappear in the imperial city.

Only three months after the death of the Emperor Taishang, Concubine Shu also died of illness, and at this point, the sky on the top of the Jingyang Marquis Mansion finally collapsed.

What? You say King Ning? What do you say that the Marquis Mansion of Jingyang is King Ning's foreign home?

King Konin's situation is no better!

In the past, King Ning tried in vain to compete with Emperor Tai'an for the throne, but finally failed, that is, when Emperor Taishang was still there, he was a man with his tail between his legs, and now he is even more honest and peaceful.

Before Concubine Shu died of illness, she sent a letter to ask the Marquis of Jingyang to return the title and leave the imperial city.

Some people say: It should be an instant decision, and now the situation is not good, it is better to protect yourself, and there is a way to 'stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood'.

Some people also said: This title was earned by the ancestors, how to be worthy of the ancestors, and they are now the children of the Hou Mansion, that is, His Majesty does not like it, but they still enjoy the power and wealth of the Hou Mansion, if they are returned, they are ordinary people.

"Eldest son, Aunt Liao asks to see."

"See? I'm annoyed with her, let her go back and stay. ”

The tone of the people in the courtyard was quite irritable and impatient, and Liao Zhuyin stood at the door, his heart was like soaking in the cold wind of winter, cold to the bone.

"Aunt Liao, please go back first, the eldest prince is annoying at this moment, and no one wants to see him." The man who had gone to report came out and shook his head at her.

"What is the decision of the eldest prince?"

"This, the subordinates don't understand, it's going to be night, Aunt Liao should go back quickly, the subordinates have other things to do."

Liao Zhuyin glanced at the courtyard again, was silent for a long time, and then turned around and walked away.

Over the years, she had learned to be silent, to bow her proud head.

The day gradually faded, the sky and the earth became gray, the winter wind was cold, and her heart was extremely empty and dazed.

Perhaps, it was really her mistake.

She thought that Lang Jun was her lover, and he liked her as she was back then, just like she had been thinking of him, making peace with him, and even willing to commit to him as a concubine.

But she didn't know that the Lang Jun who was full of her heart had already drowned on the southbound boat, and it would not be him who survived as soon as possible.

Perhaps the old people who had persuaded her in her ear were right, when a woman marries, she must first look at her character, and if she has a good character, then she can continue to look at it.

It is difficult for a person's character to change after he develops, but whether he likes you or not is not necessarily.

Time has passed, and things are like people.

In the past, when we fell in love, we wished that the world would last forever, but now I turned my head and only hated each other.

At the beginning of her entering the mansion as a concubine, he felt guilty about her, and he was not bad to her, even if Shen Mingzhu made trouble for her, he would protect her a little.

At that time, she only felt that it was worth it to be with him for the rest of her life.

But after a few times like this, he felt upset, and said that Shen Mingzhu was the wife of the main house, since she was a concubine, she couldn't always have conflicts with the housewife, she felt uncomfortable, but she didn't want him to be embarrassed, and she rarely mentioned her grievances to him again.

And in front of Shen Mingzhu, he also learned to bow his head and forbear.

Thinking about the first half of her life, she was the daughter of a family before she left the cabinet, her status was noble and talented, and the son in the imperial city, I don't know how many are the ministers under her skirt, that is, women, whether they are used to it or not, they are mostly holding her.

Later, she married Rong Ting, she relied on Rong Ting's guilt for her, and she was even more fearless, even Mrs. Rong and the Ming family, who is now the Duchess of Rong Guo, also choked when she was choked, she was unhappy, and no one wanted to be happy.

If she hadn't reconciled......

Liao Zhuyin blinked, only feeling a little sour in his eyes.

She has always been reluctant to think about this assumption, she has come to this point, there is no turning back, whether it is good or not, she can only move forward.

Looking back on the past, it only made her clear that she was ignorant and stupid, and that everything she had done over the years was all wrong.

She has ended up like this now, and it is all the fruit of her own sin.

She had been extremely depressed for a while, and after returning from the Huainan Palace, the ghost made her wander near Rong Ting's house.

On that day, Rong Ting took Chen and his three children out to buy things and go home.

Rong Ting is holding his daughter Rong Wan, Rong Xiao is Rong Wan's other hand, and Chen is walking on the side with his youngest son in his arms, his face is still gentle and soft.

A family of five, dressed in fine clothes, happy.

If she hadn't known that Rong Xiao was born to her, she would have thought that it was born by the Chen family.

The comparison of the lives on the two sides made her extremely ashamed and embarrassed, and even unwilling, feeling that why did Chen live so happily after marrying Rong Ting, and Rong Ting gave all his patience and care to Chen.

She wanted to tell Chan that she had picked up something she didn't want, something she didn't want to want.

However, she faintly knew in her heart that Rong Ting did have his bad points, he was cowardly, he was mediocre, he was unambitious, but he also had his good points, he loved his wife and children very much, he was also very patient, he had a good temper, and he rarely got angry.

She also wanted to ask Rong Ting, does he still want her now? Do you still have her in your heart? If she turned back now, would she be able to go back to the past?

His feelings for her in those years and his love for her are all gone now?

Unfortunately, she did not dare to go forward, because she knew that she would never go back.

Whether it was because of Yaqing's deception of him, or how arrogant and disrespectful she was in the Rong family over the years by taking advantage of his guilt for her, he would not forgive her.

Or maybe she is now Si Yunlang's concubine, with a bad reputation and innocence.

And Rong Ting has already married a wife and had a pair of children, it is impossible for him to abandon his current wife and children for her unbearable woman, maybe for him, she is just a past he does not want to look back.

There's no going back.

At that time, Liao Zhuyin stood on the street, watching them leave from a distance.

At that time, she felt that her whole life seemed to be like a joke.
