Imperial side

Chapter 155 Farewell
"Mother." The queen called out with sad eyes.

"The empress is here, and she hasn't been out of the palace for many years." Chen looked at her and smiled.

The queen nodded, indeed, the last time she left the palace was before Wang Zhi got married.

Only the old lady, the emperor and empress and Wang Yun were left in the room.

Xue Pinggui was really sad: "Mother-in-law... When I first met, she was graceful and luxurious, but also amiable. Now so many years have passed in a blink of an eye."

Mrs. Chen also recalled the past: "Back then, alas, I only looked at His Majesty's young life, and it looked great. It's just..."

At the beginning, of course the Wang family did not agree with their marriage, and there was nothing wrong with that.This is human nature.

But compared to Wang Yun's harsh words, Mrs. Chen has always been gentle.

After getting married, she even helped out several times without telling her family, and she was really kind to him, Xue Pinggui.

If it wasn't for what happened later, maybe they wouldn't be so unfamiliar.

"Now Sanniang is very old, I have to leave, and Jiaoniang has become your daughter-in-law again. How fast."

"Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will take care of Sanniang and Jiaoniang." Xue Pinggui sighed: "I won't promise anything else."

Mrs. Chen was already very relieved.

Outside, Wang Zhi was standing under the eaves in the distance, Xue Shaochong walked up to her and held her hand, not saying don't be sad, not saying don't cry.

Wang Zhi turned to look at him: "Grandmother is a very wise person. She has worried a lot for us all these years. But I can't do anything."

"You have a good life because you have done everything." Xue Shao rushed to look at her.

Wang Zhi nodded and stopped talking.

The emperor came, just to see.Regardless of the matters between the emperor and his courtiers, or the matters of the Wang family and the Xue family, he just wanted to take a look.

He was destitute for half his life, and he had no relatives before he met Wang Baochuan.

Although Wang Yun did not accept him, Mrs. Chen gave him some initial warmth.That is pure elder care for the younger generation.

Even if there are not many, there are.

After going to Xiliang, the old king's queen had already passed away.He never felt the care and friendship of the female elders again.

Xue Pinggui was thrown out by his family when he was young, and grew up with the blind man in the ruined temple until he was five or six years old.

The blind man went to beg for food and never came back.

Since then, he has grown up alone and with difficulty in this world.

The only mother-like role in life is Mrs. Chen.

But for the role of father in his life, he recognized the old king of Xiliang.

When the old king of Xiliang passed away, he was also genuinely sad, and even put on sackcloth and filial piety to do his best for him.

Now that the Chen family is about to pass away, it is impossible for him to wear hemp and filial piety.So he came, came to see, came to say goodbye.

After His Majesty finished watching, the old lady waited in the front hall.

The queen and Mrs. Chen talked alone.

At this time, Mrs. Chen has no strength left.

"Don't cry, people will have this day. I'm over 80, and I'm not pitiful. It's just my son, I can't bear you."

"Mom!" The queen threw herself into her arms and cried.

The queen has too many emotions that cannot be expressed.

She was pampered and grew up, but she was also the most rebellious.It made the parents sad.Now that you are high above you, you are not allowed to be filial in front of your parents.

How sad.

"Stop crying, mother is gone, you still have Jiaoniang. If you have anything to say, tell Jiaoniang. She loves you more than her own mother. Fortunately, Jiaoniang is with you, so I don't worry I've settled everything at home. You don't have to worry about it. My son, you have a hard life, and mother only hopes that you can enjoy happiness in your old age and be comfortable for a few years." Mrs. Chen took the queen's hand.

The queen just nodded, unable to say anything.

She never liked to cry, but now she couldn't stop crying.

On the way back to the palace, she sat alone in the carriage with her eyes closed, all she could think about was her childhood.

At that time, although the outside world was not stable, warlords were fighting, thieves were rampant, the court was chaotic, and the emperor was fatuous.

Father ranks first rank and is very busy.

There are no children in the family, only three sisters.The eldest sister and the second sister are not yet married, and the three of them are all in charge of the Wang family.

It was so good at that time, I was carefree every day, just thinking about how to play around.

At that time, he never thought about the future.

It's just a blink of an eye, things are changing, and so many years have passed.

When Jiaoniang was young, the queen looked at her and always thought of herself back then.

So she pampered, pampered, let Jiao Niang grow up freely, and watched her carefree life in Daming Palace.

It's like looking at yourself.

But she understood that Jiaoniang was better than herself.

Thinking about how stupid I was when I was young.

No matter how reluctant the family members are, the person who should die cannot be stopped.

At dawn on March [-]th, Wang Zhi in the East Palace was woken up.

She knew it when she opened her eyes, changed into plain clothes and went to Wang's house.

The old lady passed away last night.

It's a pity that she can't stay for long, she is the concubine, and there are rules in everything, so she can't do whatever she wants. ,

After seeing grandma, I have to go back first.

There are rules for everything that follows, and Wang Zhi just needs to follow the rules.

The Chen family passed away, and the queen also fell ill.Wang Yun looked fine, but his family was extremely worried about him.

After seven days of suspension, the old lady's coffin was sent out of the city according to the treatment of Mrs. Guo, and buried in Wang's ancestral grave.

A living person, within a few months, becomes a corpse underground.

Wang Zhi didn't cry much afterwards, but kept silent more.

Xue Shaochong accompanied her almost every day, and was in Chensu Hall when he was not going to court or doing business.

He felt that Jiao Niang needed him.

She doesn't want to talk much, but she will take the initiative to hug herself.

When she is with her, she will eat more.

But he never advised her not to be sad, nor advised her to eat more.

He has never experienced the pain of the death of a loved one, but he thinks it is extremely painful. A person who is in pain must not like to listen to those useless persuasion.A person in pain should not ask her to cheer up immediately.She has the right to be sad and decadent sometimes.At least with him, Jiao Niang has this power.

It's better to accompany her more and make her understand no matter what, you are here.

But Wang Zhi couldn't give herself this power, because the queen was still sick, so she had to accompany the queen.

Finally, when their pain gradually calmed down, all the peonies this year were gone.

Daming Palace is the same as before, everyone's life still has to move forward.

There were still rumors outside, and the prince's men had caught a person.

It was You Jing who ran away back then, his real name was Li Chongming.

And this time it was not only him who was caught, but also his brother and a subordinate.

They claimed to be descendants of the former dynasty and were active in the south of the Yangtze River, trying to overthrow Da'an and restore the former dynasty.

But whether it is true or false, it can only be false.
