"Originally, our Lin family is very proud in front of His Majesty. In addition, the master and his wife are both prominent figures in Kyoto, so even if the queen does not like her, she does not dare to do anything to her easily. Until one day, the queen empress
, he actually summoned his wife into the palace alone. From then on, the Lin family was not at peace."
In Tian's memories, the Lin family was in glory at that time, but it was also accompanied by countless crises.
My father's position as Marquis of Zhennan was won in a battle, so even if someone in the court was dissatisfied, they would not dare to do anything blatantly to the Lin family.
But since my mother was summoned alone by the queen, my father's political opponents in the court began to make trouble.
Fortunately, His Majesty was still protecting his father openly at that time. Even though he was hampered at every turn, there was no big criticism.
"Later, the Marquis once again won a great victory. Those people were blocked and did not dare to talk nonsense anymore. But many accidents happened one after another in our house. It was also at that time that someone was poisoned to death.
The young master’s wet nurse. But my wife and I both know that she died for the young master.”
Tian's eyes were full of tears.
She and Lin Nansheng's wet nurse came into the house together, and originally they took turns breastfeeding the young master.
But that poor woman's child died before she entered the house.
The lady took pity on the older girl, so she gave her twice as much as her salary.
And because she was down-to-earth, hard-working and loyal, she was also kept in the Lin Mansion.
Who knew that one night, when she woke up as usual to check on the young master, she saw the older girl bleeding from all her orifices.
She rushed to find someone to treat her, but unfortunately there was no way to save her.
But before she died, the woman still held the young master tightly in her arms and did not suffer any harm.
It was also because of this incident that the madam and she realized that someone wanted to do harm to the young master.
"Ordinarily, my parents would never let something like this happen, unless they knew who this person was and were unable to fight back for the time being."
Lin Mengya understood her parents' feelings for their two siblings best. Her mother risked her life for them, and her father could abandon everything for them.
Although they have a distinguished status, they are actually just the most ordinary pair of parents.
No parent would watch their child being violated without resisting at all.
Even if the people they face are far beyond their capabilities.
"That's right, from that time on, Mr. Hou went out early and came back late. Until you were born, he was busy with something. Although my wife will be raised at home, she always has to do everything herself. Don't worry. We were careful and careful, and finally no young master had any accidents with you. But a few days before you were born, the lady was frowning all day long, and in the end she left everyone, including the Marquis, to make arrangements for her.
The guard left the door alone. When she came back, it seemed that all the burdens were lifted. Then she said many strange things to me, saying that she wanted to entrust your brother and your unborn self to me.
. She also used a harmless method to make me your wet nurse again. Because Madam said that she can’t trust anyone but me."
No one had ever told her this matter in detail.
However, from Tian's description, she can infer a lot of things.
At that time, my father must have been under pressure from both the emperor and the empress.
He leaves early and comes back late probably to ask for help from his colleagues.
It must have been from that time on that there was a rift between my father and His Majesty.
It's just that because of the mother's departure, all the forces are no longer ready to move, and there is an illusion of relaxation.
What she didn't expect was that today, more than ten years later, she would be stirred up again.
"Did mother tell me who the person was who wanted to harm me and my brother?"
Lin Mengya already had the answer in her heart, but she just wanted to get confirmation from Tian's mouth.
"I asked Madam before, but Madam didn't say it clearly. She just told me when she was in danger, let me be careful about people from the royal family. If possible, let me watch you all my life and never have anything to do with the royal family.
.”
Tian's face was full of bitterness, probably because he didn't fulfill his promise to his old master, so he felt guilty.
Lin Mengya stared at Tian's face, her eyes gradually changed from doubt to certainty.
"Mother Tian, do you have an old friend named Fang Gu?"
Fang Gu was the old person she met who had served her mother when she was in Lintian Kingdom.
However, due to her momentary negligence, she died tragically at the hands of the enemy.
She has never forgotten, and she will never let go of anyone who has hurt the people she cares about.
Tian's expression was shaken, and it was obvious that he was barely able to maintain the expression on his face without collapsing, but it was enough to completely confirm Lin Mengya's suspicions.
"How did Miss Miss find out about Fang Gu? Are she and the others okay?"
Sighed slightly
Lin Mengya lowered her eyes.
How could she say that Qinggu died tragically because of herself?
After thinking for a long time, he said
"I met Qing Gu in Lintian, but after that, she was killed for no reason because of me. I think if my mother was here, she would definitely protect the people around her."
In Lin Mengya's heart, she felt deeply sorry for Fang Gu.
When her mother left Lintian's palace, she must have made proper arrangements for the people around her.
Just like when she went to find the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass with the determination to die, she actually arranged a way out for everyone in her family.
If she hadn't mistakenly entered the gambling house and hadn't asked about her mother's affairs, maybe Fanggu would still be happily working as the proprietress of her gambling house.
"Oh, I don't know where all the old people from back then are. Miss, you don't have to blame yourself. In fact, after I was sent out from the palace, I found Tian Ning's father and got married, and we stayed anonymous. If it hadn't been for our village later
There is a famine here, and I will not bring Ning'er to join the princess. All of these are fates. Our lives are for the princess. If one day we die for the princess, it will be considered a well-deserved death. After all, if we didn't have it in the first place,
If it were the princess, we wouldn’t be alive today.”
Now that Lin Mengya had guessed it, Tian no longer covered up many things. ??
In fact, Lin Mengya also accidentally remembered that Tian once said that she could not read a single Chinese character.
But the way Tian Tian’s mother inadvertently revealed her words was not something that an ordinary peasant woman could say.
Besides, if the Tian family is really that simple, how could it be possible that after three years of mediation under Shangguan Qing's power, he could still lay a secret escape route for her and her brother in the house, so that they would not be completely blocked by Shangguan Qing?
.
Thinking about it now, it can only show that Mr. Tian is really not a simple person.
On rare occasions, Lin Mengya would listen to people around her mother mention what happened to her mother back then.
Although her body is very tired, her spirit is becoming more and more active.
Until later, Bai Ji lay in the corner and fell asleep.
She and Tian were still talking about the past.
There was a reason why my mother left the palace, and even these close maids did not know this reason.
But Tian said that the secret was related to the royal family of Lintian Kingdom.
When my mother ran away, she was actually looking for something.
My uncle also said that the Zuo clan has an inescapable fate.
< br> So Lin Mengya thought that her mother should have come out of Lintian Kingdom to find a way to get rid of the curse.
It was only later, probably because she was not found or something happened, that she became the wife of the Marquis of Zhennan and never returned to her homeland.
Lin Mengya also found out some things clearly through Tian.
For example, how did my mother and father meet in the first place, and how they were secretly persecuted by those people.
Under all circumstances, the image of mother in Lin Mengya's heart became clearer and more natural.
Her mother was not the saint she had imagined before, she was also an ordinary woman who would sacrifice for love and her children.
Transforming from a god to a human does not damage the image of the mother.
On the contrary, Lin Mengya felt that her mother was closer to her.
Moreover, she finally knew why so many people said she looked so much like her mother.
Not only the appearance, but also the similarity in personality.
Some things are really wonderful, even if they don't live together, even if she is forced to live in another time and space.
But some inheritances, still followed by blood and family ties, were engraved into her bones and left a mark deep in her soul.
"There is only one thing I don't understand now. With my mother's medical skills, how could there be no antidote to the poison she was poisoned with? They all said that my mother was willing, but you also said that my mother loved us very much.
She also loves her father very much. In this case, how could she be so cruel and choose to abandon us?"
The ants are still living in vain, not to mention that the mother has already noticed that someone wants to do harm to her children. How could she go away and push her children into the pit?
A trace of hatred suddenly appeared on Tian's face, and a different kind of cold light burst out from his eyes.
"Humph, I have to ask Mrs. Qing about all this. She admired the Marquis at the beginning and tried every means to get close to the madam, but the madam had already seen through her true face, so she was always wary of her. But one day
, but Mrs. Qing took a letter and gave it to Madam. Others didn’t know it, but I knew it clearly. It was this letter that drove Madam to death. The poison was also forced by Madam Qing and the Queen to drink it.
!”
Her little hands clenched into fists, and Lin Mengya's expression darkened.
Sure enough! It's just that the content of this letter is really weird. It actually forced the mother to die to save her children.
It seemed that she had to find out the contents of this letter.
