"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Jin Lian saw the emperor walking out of Xiangyun Palace with a displeased look on his face, and quickly ran into the bedroom with Bin'er, where he saw his master sitting on the bed crying.
Bin'er had never seen her mother cry like this before. She was stunned for a moment and then started crying too.
"You brat, why are you crying? Mom is fine!" Duoduo wiped away her tears and stood up from the bed, wanting to go over and comfort her son.
"Ah? Sister, you-" Jin Lian screamed!
Duoduo suddenly remembered that he was wet all over. He quickly pulled the sheet around his body and stared at the three-year-old in panic and said, "Hey, stinky man, what are you looking at?"
Bin'er suddenly stopped crying and murmured: "Bin'er didn't see anything..."
"You really didn't see it?"
Bin'er shook his head and said: "No, Bin'er lowered his head just now..."
"You're talking nonsense!" Duoduo's nervousness came back, and he lectured his son as if he was lecturing Nangong Jie: "You obviously saw it. Did you see a big spider on my mother's body?"
"Ah? Big spider? Mom, do you have a big spider on your body? No, why can't Bin'er see it?"
Jin Lian burst out laughing, pinched Bin'er's face and said: "You little fool, you have been fooled by your mother again. Don't you even see anything if you don't say anything? Then how do you know that your mother
Don’t you have any big spiders on you?”
"Ah? Mother, you are so bad!" Bin'er took Jin Lian's hand and said, "Sister, we don't want to sleep with mother in the future. I want to sleep with sister."
"Uh..." Jin Lian couldn't help but feel ashamed: "Okay, then I'll sleep with my sister from now on."
"Humph, you brat, you're a guy who forgets his mother when he sees sex!" Duoduo suddenly came over unconvinced and said with a smile: "Son, does your mother have a good-looking figure?"
"Oh sister!" Jin Lian said angrily: "Sister, what are you talking about? Bin'er is still so young, and if you keep telling him these things, you will teach him bad things!"
"Humph, why do you need my teachings? This brat must have inherited his father's romantic nature, and he has become very bad at a young age!"
"Ah? Sister, do you know who Bin'er's biological father is?"
"I...how do I know? I'm just saying casually, like father, like son. His father is definitely not a good guy."
"Haha, Jin Lian doesn't think so. Bin'er is kind-hearted and smart. His father should be the kind of talented young man who is as beautiful as a tree, right?"
"This...how do I know?"
"Ah? Sister, you are not mistaken. You have never told me your origins. Do you really know nothing? You can't clap, and you don't have a man. How did you give birth to Bin'er?"
"Haha..." Duoduo suddenly smiled and said, "I don't remember what happened in the past. After a serious illness, I forgot all about it!"
"Oh, Jin Lian has also heard people talk about this memory-losing disease that my sister mentioned. It was said that when he was reincarnated, he drank too much Mengpo soup, so he would forget it one more time after he was reincarnated as an adult."
"Is that so?" Duoduo pretended to be surprised: "This statement is quite reasonable. It seems that when I was reincarnated in my previous life, I ate too many glutinous rice balls on the Huangquan Road. I was too thirsty, so I ate too many glutinous rice balls.
I drank a few sips of Meng Po soup haha.”
The two of them were talking in Xiangyun Palace when they suddenly felt their stomachs began to growl.
"Sister, it's time to go to the imperial kitchen. I'll go find the stewards to get some delicious food. After what happened last time, they will definitely give us the best and cleanest food."
"Yeah, let's go. By the way, tell them that we have moved into Xiangyun Palace to make them happy. I will visit them when I have time in the future."
After observing filial piety for seven days, Nangong Jie lost a lot of weight, which made the girls in the house feel distressed. There was nothing they could do about it, because they all knew that the only one who could comfort their master was his wife.
It's a pity that this lady is no longer what she used to be. No one will dare to scream randomly in the future, because imperial notices have been posted everywhere in the capital, announcing to the world that she will be named queen if she has more money than today.
For a time, the legend of this folk queen became more and more mysterious, and at the same time, it also greatly inspired many women with dreams.
Because they saw miracles in Duoduo, they also felt that as long as they worked tirelessly, miracles would happen to them too.
Nangong Jie took off his mourning clothes, went into the bathroom and took a hot bath. The water in the tub was cooled down before he was willing to climb out and asked the maid to shave him with a beard knife.
"Your Majesty, what do you want to eat today? Xiu'er has prepared it for you."
"No, I don't have much appetite. Just prepare it for everyone. I have to go to the palace."
"Ah? Your Majesty, are you going out? I think Your Majesty, you should rest well in the mansion for a few days. You have been very tired from observing your mourning these days. If you don't rest, Xiu'er is afraid that Your Majesty will not be able to bear it."
"It's okay, I just haven't seen Bin'er and the others for a long time, and I want to meet them."
"well……"
The maid sighed and shook her head: "Your Majesty, this world is changing too fast, you have to be mentally prepared."
"What did you say?" Nangong Jie said vigilantly: "Did something happen? Could it be... Madam, something happened to her in the palace! Forget it, don't shave your beard first, please tell me what happened.
?”
"My lord, don't be anxious. In fact, it might be a good thing for others..."
"Good thing?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Emperor has made it known to the world that today in the morning, Concubine Qian will be crowned Queen. This time is different from the last time. She must be serious about it."
"What...impossible!" Nangong Jie stood up with a cry, threw aside the towel around his neck, and strode out. He would never believe that this was true. It was impossible for that woman to be here.
In just a few days, there had been such a big change. She said she wanted to be his wife, so how could she become his father's queen?
"Your Majesty, it's true. Wake up. Women are all realistic! Who wouldn't want to be a queen? Your Majesty..."
The maid screamed loudly, but she couldn't shout to her master.
In the most lively place in the capital, many people were discussing around a royal list. Some said that the queen came from the people, and some said that she was after the Ming Dynasty. Many people recognized this name, and it was the same as Jie.
The housekeepers of the palace were all from the same family, but they all expressed their opinions and had a lot of quarrels.
This made the two soldiers who were responsible for guarding the imperial list dumbfounded. However, it was amusement to see these common people arguing with each other for an explanation.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" A man pushed his way through the crowd and walked to the front. He only glanced at it, and then he was so angry that he stretched out his hand and tore off the imperial list, tearing it to pieces with three blows.
"How dare you tear up the imperial list!" The two soldiers rushed over at the same time, one of them grabbed the man's shoulders. When they saw clearly the man who tore up the imperial list, they were startled and quickly let go.
Said: "Wang... Wangye turns out to be you!"
Nangong Jie grabbed them all, glared and asked, "Tell me, what's going on?"
"Your Majesty, what's going on, and how do we know? We only know that Concubine Qian entered Xiangyun Palace yesterday, and will be named queen today. Who knows what will happen so suddenly? Your Majesty wants to know,
I think I would go to the palace in person to ask the emperor."
"Humph!" Nangong Jie pushed the two soldiers hard, then strode out of the crowd, jumped on a carriage, and ran quickly towards the palace.
"Yu..." Nangong Jie was about to rush on his way in a hurry, but was stopped by a woman on the street.
"Go away, I have something important to do and I'm on my way in a hurry. Go away!" Nangong Jie shouted at the woman.
"Fifth Prince, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
Nangong Jie was stunned: "Do you know me? Who are you?"
"Fifth Prince, I am your mother's old sister. I work in the Shang Palace Bureau. Your mother gave me this wooden box the day before she died, and asked me to take it out of the palace and give it to you no matter what.
Come on, I've been out for many days, but I was afraid of being watched, so I didn't dare to go directly to the palace to find you. Today I finally waited for you."
"My mother's relic?" Nangong Jie took the small wooden box from the woman's hand with both hands, and couldn't help but said with a sad face: "My mother, what else did you say to you?"
"No more. Your mother asked me to give the box to you. I hope you can keep it well. This is the only thing your mother left for you." The old woman said and couldn't help crying sadly: "Ping
The concubine is so kind-hearted, why does God treat her like this..."
"It's all over. Just let it go. Auntie, thank you. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."
After Nangong Jie finished speaking, he shook the reins and continued on his way.
Suddenly I remembered the wooden box in my hand, so I opened it and saw that it was a darker jade bracelet and a piece of letterhead.
Nangong Jie couldn't wait to open the letter... Jie'er, before talking, what Wei Niang wants to say is that Miss Duoduo is a very good person, kind-hearted and smart, so Wei Niang wants to tell you, no matter what
No matter what happens, you must treat her well. My mother originally planned to give that jade bracelet to him as a dowry when you two get married in the future.
It's a pity that mother won't be able to wait until that time. Jie'er, regarding your life experience, you must forgive mother. Mother has lied to you for so long, and there is nothing you can do about it. In fact, what the eunuch said that day was all true.
Yes, it was he who defiled my mother the night before she entered the palace... The letter was not big, but it was densely packed with words. When Nangong Jie read it, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and at the same time clenched his two fists tightly.
It was tight until it felt like the nails were about to pierce the palm of the hand, and then it was loosened.
"I'm sorry, mother, please forgive me for not listening to you. I must avenge you! Ah... drive!" Nangong Jie screamed to the sky like crazy, and then beat him hard on the horse.
When the horse pulling the carriage was frightened, it rushed forward with all its strength. Nangong Jie's mood at this time was hard to describe, but he was already sure that the reason why the woman agreed to be the queen must be related to his life experience.
Nangong Jie made it to the morning court on time today, and just as he imagined, the emperor led the woman who used to be Nangong Jie and sat on the emperor's throne together. After the ministers finished their speech, they announced the enfeoffment of the queen.
And after the morning court today, a ceremony for the enthronement of the queen will be held in the Imperial Garden.
Duoduo saw him as soon as he came in, and found that he had lost weight, and his expression was dull. He kept his head down and said nothing... This made Duoduo feel uncomfortable. She knew that he felt wronged and sad, but she hoped that he would look at her, even if he was satisfied.
Resentment also means that he cares about her and misses her.
However, until the end of the morning court, the man never looked at her and followed the ministers out of Zhaoyang Palace.
"Jie'er, stop!" Nangong Ming said, leading Duoduo down from the high dragon chair.
Nangong Jie turned around and half-bowed: "Father."
Duoduo felt very uncomfortable and said: "Your Majesty, I will go back and get ready first. Take my leave."
"Hey, dear concubine, what are you in a hurry? Some things have to be faced sooner or later." Nangong Ming took Duoduo's hand and said to Nangong Jie: "Jie'er, in the past, Duoduo was your housekeeper, and he also helped
Thanks to you, she will soon become my queen. You should be happy for her. Don’t you want to say something to her?"
"Yes, Father." Nangong Jie turned slightly, lowered his head and said, "Congratulations, Congratulations, Congratulations to Xi Niang-"
"That's enough!" Duoduo waved his hand: "Your Majesty, I'm going back first."
"My beloved concubine..." Nangong Ming saw the woman leaving angrily, so he had to change his words: "Jie'er, I am also very heartbroken by your mother's death, but I hope you will not be depressed because of this, and you must cheer up.
, learn from the important ministers in the court and be successful in the future, which is the best reward for your mother."
"I know Father, thank you for your concern."
"Well, it's good to know. Don't let me down." Nangong Ming patted Nangong Jie's shoulder and began to look around for the woman.
Watching Nangong Ming gradually walk away, Nangong Jie suddenly said to himself: "Don't worry, I will not let you down..."
After coming out of Zhaoyang Palace, Nangong Jie felt very disappointed. Unknowingly, he passed by Zizhuwan again. Thinking that it was empty, his mood became even lower.
Walking into the small bamboo forest, I came to the old tree. The iron cup used for whispering was still there, but it was a pity that it was no longer needed.
"Alas..." Nangong Jie sighed longly at the iron cup... "Alas..." Nangongjie sighed longly at the iron cup embedded in the old tree... And just then
At this time, a slight sound of footsteps came from behind. Nangong Jie turned around and saw that it was her!
Duoduo just lowered his head and walked listlessly, step by step, feeling very depressed. He didn't know why he came to this small bamboo forest, and he didn't know what he wanted to do.
She saw a pair of feet and looked up, with a bit of surprise on her face: "Why are you here?"
Nangong Jie bowed respectfully and said: "Empress..."
Duoduo suddenly became angry, and the anger accumulated in his heart was mixed with bitterness. He kicked him hard on the thigh and yelled: "Get out..."
"Yes, empress..." Nangong Jie turned around and left.
"Stop!" Duoduo reached out and held his hand: "Don't you have anything to say to me? Don't you care about anything? Aren't you heartbroken that your wife is going to be given to the emperor and empress?"
"I...I have something to say."
With a sound of "Pa...", Duoduo slapped him hard on the face.
Nangong Jie said loudly: "What can I say? Is it any use if I say it? Then tell me, it was clearly agreed that you and my father were a superficial couple, and you clearly told me that you would be my woman for the rest of your life, but what about now? You
Tell me!"
"I..." Duoduo hesitated for a moment, yes, what should she say? She suddenly found that she had no way to explain everything to him, but why did she have to be so aggressive and let herself fall into a speechless ending... "What's wrong?
?Why don't you speak? Well, let me tell you, you are actually a woman who is greedy for fame and wealth. It turns out that everything you did to me was because I might become the prince and the master of a country, so you did it.
You were good to me, but now you see that my hope is slim, so you switch to my father’s arms and reach the sky in one step!”
"You're talking nonsense, I'm not!"
"You're not? If you weren't, there would be no bad women in this world! You shameless person, what qualifications do you have to see me? Get out of here, get out of here..."
Duoduo was stunned, staring blankly at the man in front of her. She had made such a big sacrifice for him, but he told her to get lost...
"Go away, what are you looking at!" Nangong Jie not only yelled fiercely, but also pushed the woman.
"Okay, I'll get out, I never want to see you again..." Duoduo turned around and left, walking very fast, she wanted him to miss her even if he wanted to catch up!
However, Duoduo didn't hear any footsteps, and he didn't even try to save that dead man!
She had done so many things for him, why should she be treated like this? Duoduo looked back angrily.
The sight frightened her, and she saw Nangong Jie banging his head against the old tree like a madman, causing the stumps and leaves on the tree to fall off one after another.
"What are you doing? You bastard, are you crazy!" Duoduo rushed back quickly, grabbed his back collar, and pulled him back hard.
"I'm so useless, so useless!" Nangong Jie slapped himself hard several times.
"That's enough, are you still a man like this?" Duoduo was so angry that she kicked him on the thigh again. This kick used a lot of force and almost knocked Nangong Jie over.
"Wife..." Nangong Jie suddenly came over and hugged the woman tightly into his arms, choking and saying: "I didn't let you live a peaceful life, but in turn asked you to pay for my survival.
I've said so much, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
"You bad guy..." Duoduo had no intention of softening at first, but when he held her in his arms and said those words, he couldn't hold it back any longer, tears burst into his eyes, and she opened her mouth and bit his shoulder.
superior.
Nangong Jie did not struggle because of this. Instead, he hugged her tighter, lowered his head to kiss the fragrance of her hair, and hugged her tightly, because only in this way could he feel that she belonged to him. Only in this way, he
Only then will you find a sense of security.
The two of them just hugged each other, very tightly, for a long time, until Duoduo couldn't bear it anymore and broke away.
"You hurt me. Why did you say those words just now? What do you know?"
Nangong Jie said dejectedly: "My mother left me her last words. I know a lot of things I shouldn't know. I never thought that the blood flowing through me is not from the Nangong family."
"Sigh...it's really not as good as fate. I kept it secret from you all this time because I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to bear it if you found out and would do some reckless things and lose your life in vain. I didn't expect that your mother would actually keep it for you.
Last words..."
"But what's the use of last words? It will only make me sadder. I would rather you really betray me than ask you to make such a big sacrifice because of my incompetence."
As Nangong Jie spoke, he suddenly grabbed Duoduo's hand and said, "Honey, why don't we run away? It doesn't matter where we can run. I really don't want you to be that queen, I'll go crazy!"
"Hey... Fool, if you can escape, why do you need to do it now? Don't worry, we are fine. The Emperor won't touch me for a while, so you must try your best... and take me back in the future."
