The Path of the Peasant Girl

Chapter 232 Fanwai: The Third Story (1)

The third story written by Zuo Hua is called "Famous Gate Execution".

The opening Chapter 1 is about the heroine recalling the past, things before and after her rebirth:
-

"Stab the heart

It's a cool spring day, and after a patter of rain, the sky clears up.

In the garden of the Prince's Mansion in the Forbidden City, there is a field of Chinese vetch, which is red and purple from a distance, reflecting the blooming peony flowers, as bright as red clouds, which is a wonderful scenery.

Beside the Baqiao on the outskirts of Beijing, twos and threes of horse-drawn carriages are parked in one place, and everyone who travels has changed into new clothes. Adults either sit in the pavilion or accompany their children to fly kites on the grass.

The late emperor died, and the death knell rang nine times.

The whole world was mourning, the whole country mourned, and the people of the country were sobbing and crying loudly.

But except for a few loyal ministers who sincerely mourn, most people are just pretending.

Whether it was true or pretending, they cried very sadly, lest they be slowed down a little bit and cause criticism.

The late emperor died, and the great Wei was about to change.

A country cannot live without a ruler for a day.

The current prince, the fifth prince Chen Lie, will move out of the prince's mansion tomorrow, move to the Qianqing Palace, inherit the great line, extend the kingdom of the country, and rule the world.

The faces of the servants of the Prince's Mansion were filled with painful expressions, but their steps were very light, welcoming and sending them off in an orderly manner.

Princess Zhu Sha's face was pale, and she curled up on the bed stiffly, wrapped in a thin quilt, unable to withstand the cold spring weather.

The furnishings in the room are simple, the cyan cloth on the big bed of pineapple flowers and wood blocks the sunlight, there is a pot of cold tea on the table, only the bronze mirror on the dressing table has a faint hint of bright color.

The various items did not at all conform to the majesty and rituals that a princess should have, nor did they conform to Zhu Sha's personal preferences.

Basho came in with a medicine bowl from the outside, and seeing Zhu Sha staring blankly out of the window, looking haggard, she couldn't help but feel a sore nose, and stepped forward to tuck her in the quilt.

"Niangniang, the rain has just stopped, it's cold, maid, go and close the window? You're weak, so take care of yourself."

There was a lot of people coming and going outside. Although everyone didn't dare to make a loud noise during the national mourning period, there were a lot of things going on in the Prince's Mansion, and there were more people.

The most important thing is that tomorrow, Chen Lie will be enthroned.

Zhu Sha was in a daze, and after a long while, her face was sad and happy, and suddenly it was deserted, wrapped in a thin quilt, and coughed violently.

Basho hurriedly lifted the person up and patted her on the back.

"Your Majesty, drink the medicine. Cherry has just boiled the medicine and it's hot. Nothing is as important as your body. Your Highness, he will come to see you. You are a married couple, and your relationship is unusual. Your Highness will take care of you. "

How could he take care of him?

He wants her to die!
What about the husband and wife, what he values ​​most now is her good sister, but it's a pity that she has been awake all the time!

Zhu Sha closed her eyes tiredly.

"Your Majesty, don't think about it. No matter what happens, for the sake of His Highness, you have to take care of your own body. You are His Highness's support."

The son Chen Changyi is the softness in Zhu Sha's heart and the only person Zhu Sha cares about now. She is only three years old this year.

"Quick, go and find Yi'er, I want to see him."

Due to the excitement, Zhu Sha's face showed an abnormal flushing, and her chest could not be suppressed. She clutched her chest and coughed a few times, as if she was about to cough out her heart.

"puff!"

A mouthful of blood sprayed out, Zhu Sha was startled, and stared blankly at the blood on the quilt.

Basho froze, his face turned pale, and he felt dizzy. He held Zhu Sha and stammered to comfort her.

"Don't look at Niangniang, this... This is just an accident. The doctor said that your typhoid fever is much better than before. You can get better as long as you drink medicine. Come, Niangniang, drink the medicine!"

He was about to get to Zhu Sha's mouth and looked at her eagerly, hoping that when the bowl of medicine went down, she would be fine.

Zhu Sha turned her head to one side: "It's better not to call Yi'er here, he will be sad again when he sees me like this."

She had started coughing up blood, and it was not going to get better.

Among the people in the Prince's Mansion, except for Cherry Plano and Yier, who would like her?
Otherwise, I wouldn't go through the entire Cuiwei Palace, and I could only get a quilt.

Chen Lie didn't want to see her, but so what.

As long as you endure it, wait for another period of time, wait until Huagai takes the lead and the canonization of the big makeup, even if you endure it, you will have to wait until the day when the princess is promoted to the queen.

Besides, he will be enthroned tomorrow!

At that time, she is the queen, and Yi'er is her son-in-law, rightfully occupying the eldest.

For this title, she has to live well.

"Bring me the medicine, I'll drink it."

Zhu Sha grabbed the medicine bowl, raised her head and drank it, and swallowed it desperately, regardless of the hot soup.

People are always going to die, and she doesn't really mean much to live.

But it's better to be boring than dead, she still has Yi'er.

In the past, he gave everything for Chen Lie, hit the south wall with blood and finally turned around. Now he should live a good life for Yier.

The window is full of purple and red, and the grass is growing and the warbler is flying. It is March in the spring. When she was a beautiful and quiet girl, as long as she opened her eyes, she could see the swing in the courtyard.

But now, she no longer has the spirit of vigor and vitality.

There was a sudden footstep in the corridor, pulling Zhu Sha's mind back.

"Your Majesty, this way please, the little girl came to report just now, saying that she has taken the medicine and has just calmed down."

"Aunt Cherry, who do you think took the medicine?"

"Of course it's your mother-in-law!"

Cherry giggled and squeezed the little man in his arms.

"Little Highness, when you meet your mother-in-law, you will be with her forever and never be separated again. Are you happy?"

Chen Changyi's dark eyes widened, and he grinned: "Okay, okay, my concubine always refuses to let me stay in Cuiwei Palace, and every time I see her, she is taken away by the servants within a quarter of an hour, Aunt Cherry, It turns out that you have a way to let me be with my concubine mother, it's really great, why didn't you say it earlier?"

"Don't worry Yier, I'll send you there."

A soft and graceful voice sounded, it was Chen Lie's current favorite, Zhu Sha's younger sister Zhu Rou.

Zhu Sha heard the content of the conversation, her face changed, and she sat up wrapped in a quilt.

"Sister, are you feeling better today?"

Zhu Rou walked to the bedside with a smile and looked at her carefully.

"Sister, please take care of yourself. Your Highness will be in a hurry tomorrow. My sister is his concubine, and she should be in good spirits. It's not a good sign to be in such a state. I know that my sister is not in good health, but if I don't know, I think My sister has an opinion on His Highness' succession to the throne."

The pearl hairpin on Zhu Roufei's fairy bun trembled, and her beautiful face showed a beautiful smile, and her always sincere expression turned into contempt and sarcasm.

Zhu Sha looked into Cherry's arms: "Yi'er, come and give mother and concubine a hug."

Cherry looked at Zhu Rou, Zhu Rou nodded.

Basho took the man and put it by the bed.

Zhu Sha hurriedly hugged her fluffy son and looked up and down.

"Don't worry, sister, Yi'er is His Highness's child. How could I be bad to him? Don't talk about him, it's you. I never thought I'd be bad to you."

Her sister, since the death of her brother-in-law Chen Xi, has never Zhang Yangguo like this in front of her, except yesterday.

Zhu Sha glanced at her. She used to have a very good relationship with this sister. From birth, she relied on Meng Shi and Zhu Rou wholeheartedly, and sincerely regarded them as her mother and sister.

Even if Zhu Rou was widowed and fell into the lotus pond, Chen Lie rescued her, and the family arranged for Zhu Rou to marry Chen Lie and become the concubine of the crown prince, she did not complain, not even a word.

She is sad, sad.

It's not because Zhu Rou married Chen Lie, but because she gave everything for Chen Lie, worked hard, never made mistakes for many years, was arrogant and arrogant, and was not ignorant, sinister and vicious.

Why did it fall like this?

Seeing Zhu Rou's mysterious expression that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, Zhu Shajue felt extremely heart-piercing.

If Chen Lie and Zhu Rou are more sympathetic than Jin Jian, and can't tolerate each other any more, why would Zhu Rou marry Chen Xi?

But it is the interests of power, what is true love and righteousness.

At the beginning, the third prince, Chen Xi, was full of high spirits and had a great relationship. Could it be compared to the unknown fifth prince, Chen Lie?

But Chen Xi died, Chen Lie became the crown prince, and Zhu Rou regretted it.

The family arranged for her to marry Chen Lie, and she did.

Arranged for her to accept her sister, she drank the bowl of Mistress tea.

But now they want her to die and fulfill her noble sister, she wants to say no!

Do not!Do not!Do not!
Why?
She is also the daughter of the Hou Mansion, and the prince concubine who is famously married to the Ming media, why should she be so useless?
Is it because she is useless now, because Chen Lie likes Zhu Rou, so she should apologise, and make room for her?
Otherwise, you don't know what to do, don't be ashamed?
Why did Zhu Rou marry the third prince Chen Xi who was more promising at that time?
Chen Xi died, shamelessly posted Chen Lie, what is it to marry into the Prince's Mansion as a concubine?
She is not reconciled!

If it wasn't for Zhu Rou who came to vent yesterday, she would still be an idiot, a utterly confused idiot who was used by others!
"Zhu Sha, you are such a fool. Do you really think that the crown prince and I got together after you? You are too naive! Your Highness and I have been childhood sweethearts since we were young! We are in love with each other. We have been in love for more than ten years because of your request. You have killed the Princess Anyang and robbed me of my marriage, otherwise why would I want to marry Chen Xi? How could I have become a widow, even if I fell into the lotus pond to marry the prince, would I still be a side concubine?"

"I'm the legitimate daughter of a concubine in my family, the daughter of a concubine like you, why should you be a princess?"

"Do you think the miscarriage is due to your weak body? Haha, I put half a catty of safflower in your miscarriage medicine, and it's no wonder you don't miscarry if you drink it every day!"

Zhu Rou, who has always shown people with a gentle face and spoke softly, looked at her with a grim face, sneered at her, grabbed Zhu Sha and pushed the person against the bedpost, and a few words made her terrified soul fly away.

Zhu Sha stared at her dumbfounded, her body limp into a ball.

"Why have you been unable to have a child for so many years, and finally got pregnant and had a miscarriage? Do you think His Highness hates you because you have no children?"

"Wrong! Very wrong! Now that you have a son, His Royal Highness still treats you indifferently. I wish I could let you die, Zhu Sha, haven't you thought about the reason?"

"I... I, I"

Her eyes were rolling in her sockets, unable to react urgently.

Zhu Rou pinched her scallion-like fingers around her neck and looked at her sinisterly: "Damn you!"

She suddenly let go of her and said indifferently: "It's because you are too stupid to see such obvious things, and now you are sick, because Your Highness doesn't want a stupid woman like you to be the queen, you don't deserve it! So, you should dead!"

"But you are so stupid, you don't know how you died until you die. I hold back my anger. Why should I let you die in confusion? You should repent, reflect, and die in pain!"

Zhu Sha sat down on the bed, looked at her back with tears in her eyes, climbed up and pulled her gorgeous skirt:

"No! I don't want to die, I still have Yier! Please tell His Highness, I don't want to die, I will listen to you, I don't ask for anything else, just watch Yier grow up safely, okay?"

Her almost flattering pleading did not soften her heart, but was furious instead:

"Zhu Sha, how can there be a fool like you in the world? I told you so, why don't you understand?"

"Your Highness wants you to die! I want you to die too! Your existence is the original sin! How can we let you live?"

Zhu Sha's face was pale, and she muttered, not knowing what to say.

she does not know.

If they knew, they would definitely not marry Chen Lie, and would not stop their words. Those people in the family only knew how to use her.

Who would really care about her?

Grandpa, grandma, uncle, and aunt care about her, but her temperament made them disappointed with her. After she married Chen Lie, she cut off contact with her.

Over the years, she has been alone, without Chen Lie's favor, without the understanding of her family, and she has been in constant fear all day long.

It was so hard to make it out, and it turned out to be such a result.

"I don't want to die," she said.

"Why don't you? Your mother didn't want to die! Your brother didn't want to either! You didn't want to! Your son didn't want to! But you're all going to die!"

"You should reincarnate in your next life, widen your eyes to see clearly, why are you offending someone who shouldn't be offended, and blocking the way you shouldn't!"

"His Royal Highness is ruthless to you, really ruthless, so when your child was born, he came to me for tenderness that night, and now, you are going to die with your son!"

"Your son is nothing but grass in His Highness's eyes, but you are not even as good as grass!"

It turned out to be so!
She wished she was deaf.

But the ears are there.

My heart sinks to the bottom, and many things that I didn't understand before are very clear now.

Where in the world do so many coincidences come from?
Why didn't she notice it before!
Why did she feel uncomfortable after drinking the birth control pill in the first place, why she slipped a child, but he didn't care about her, turned his head and disappeared, she thought he was angry because she didn't save his child. ...

Now that I think about it, how ridiculous.

…………

Thinking of what happened yesterday, Zhu Sha's complexion turned cold, her body trembled while holding her son, and the affection on her face was indeed firm. "What are you doing here? I'm not welcome here."

"Of course it is to reunite your mother and son and send you off for the last time."

Zhu Rou's eyes are gentle and her smile is bright, just like in the past.

Zhu Sha's face changed greatly: "What did you say?!"

"I said, it's time for you and Yier to go on the road. I will let your mother and son accompany you on the yellow road, and I won't let Yier find her mother in the underworld at such a young age. Do you think I'm treating you well, sister?"
