Madam not allowed to remarry

227 Secret Love 2
His words "eat well" are worth a thousand words from the emperor.

If he was alive, he could at least see him. If he died, then this person really had nothing to do with her.

She worked hard to eat and live, and never interacted with others, but walked frequently with Concubine Xiao Gui, just to know his news, even if it was just a sliver, just a piece of news.

On the [-]th birthday of the Empress Dowager, the officials came to congratulate her, and the prince of Nanchu brought the officials to send congratulatory gifts.

In her eyes, there is only him who talks and laughs happily, with picturesque features.

Afterwards, Governor Cui Yingying, the daughter of Governor Cui, performed a dance and amazed the audience. She saw the light and appreciation flashing in his eyes, and her mood was suppressed to the extreme.

She knew that he fell in love with this woman.

The body that had been brought back with great difficulty lost weight rapidly again. Seeing this, the emperor was so anxious that he even put all the court affairs on hold. In order to please her, he took her out of the palace to hunt, and King Xiao accompanied him.

That was the happiest time for her, she remembered it very clearly, he taught her to ride a horse, the horse was bumpy, she almost fell off the horse, he flew to catch her, that hug was happy and painful.

She loves him deeply, but he is beaming and talks about Cui Yingying to her.

She hated that woman, but seeing his happy appearance, she was happy for him.

He will marry a wife after all, if he wants to marry a random woman in order to cope with the family, he might as well marry someone he likes.

He persuaded her to think about everything, thinking that her weight loss in the past six months was due to her succession. She was bitter in her heart, how could she tell him that because of Yi Xiao, people were haggard.

When he came back from the hunting ground, the emperor didn't come to her very often. He began to frequent the other concubines' palaces, from pampering only one person to being exposed to rain and dew, but she didn't care, and even hoped that it would always be like this.

She still went to Concubine Xiao's place diligently, and learned from her that a man named Meng Shijun, who pursued Cui Yingying in vain, spread all kinds of vile rumors in Chang'an City to slander King Xiao.

She was furious.

After many years in the palace, she has experienced many inhuman tortures, only this time, it was not her who was tortured, but her whole body was burned with anger.

Regardless of her own status, she summoned Meng Shijun's mother and threatened and satirized her.

When the news finally got out, the emperor was furious. One drunken night, he came to her palace and asked her if she liked King Xiao. Finally, I know the reason why the emperor of the boat returning to the palace treats her indifferently.

She didn't want to hide anymore, she only thought about life and death, she admitted her infatuated love for King Xiao, and even told the emperor about the unborn child, and said with a sneer that even if the child was born, she might not treat him well, Because all her life, she only wanted to bear children for King Xiao.

She didn't expect that her waywardness would be exchanged for an imperial decree, and Xiao Wang was forced to a dead end.

However, Concubine Xiao Gui was tired of running around about King Xiao's affairs, and she couldn't afford to fall ill, and soon passed away in that summer, before King Xiao's execution.

She regretted it so much that she knelt outside the Qiankun Hall and begged day and night, and later she knew that the woman named Cui Yingying, just like her, begged day and night, but because she couldn't enter the palace, she knelt at the gate of Nanhua every day, kowtowing like blood. , dyed the bluestone floor in front of Nanhua Gate red.

On the eve of Xiao Wang's execution, she wanted to end her life with a piece of white silk, but the emperor pushed the door open and rescued her. She burst into tears and pleaded, but the emperor only said coldly: He escaped, but you If I want to seek death again, even if I search Beiliang, I will catch him back.

For that person, she lingered on to live.

To this day, thinking of Concubine Xiao Gui who died because of her willfulness, King Xiao who was running around, Cui Yingying who lived tenaciously with King Xiao's flesh and blood, and the child who was humiliated at birth, she couldn't sleep at night. My conscience was greatly condemned, and I was in great pain.

In her story, Meng Baiyun finally understood the reason why she cared about her mother the first time they met and took good care of her.

It turned out that it was because of shame.

After hearing this story, Meng Baiyun felt a lump in his throat and didn't know what to say.

She doesn't hate her, there is nothing wrong with love, she has lived in pain and endless thoughts all her life, she is actually the one who suffers the most.

The ending was not what she wanted to see. Her wrong words back then were just to risk her own life, and she didn't want to get such an ending.

She got up, walked to the woman who looked old because of grief, and patted her on the back lightly: "Don't cry."

The man was half bent, his body was arched, and he looked injured.

"Hate me, Baiyun, you hate me very much."

"I do not hate you."

"Hehe." The hunched man smiled sadly, "But I hate myself."

"Do you want to make amends?"

"Compensation, how can I make up for it? Is it to make Concubine Xiao Gui, who treated me like a sister, come back to life from death, or make King Xiao return to being a prince and enjoy a powerful position, or make you grow up under your parents' knees and be happy?" grow up?"

"We all know that time cannot be turned back, but there are many things in front of us that we can grasp."

Meng Baiyun was persuasive and persuasive, and a little bit of light shone in the painful and dark corner of the empress dowager's heart: "I'm willing to do whatever you want me to do."

"I want you to take good care of my mother. She is in the palace. The queen mother doesn't know what will hinder her. In this harem, you are the only one who can compete with her."

In fact, the imperial concubine didn't have to do anything, because Long Aohan said that he would make arrangements, and he would definitely make arrangements so that her mother would not suffer any harm.

The reason why Meng Baiyun said this was just to comfort the empress dowager.

Sure enough, her painful face eased a little: "I see."

"You probably haven't walked around with my mother. If you walk around, you will find that she is a nice person. If you have time to chat with her, I think you will feel better."

Her mother's open-mindedness sometimes makes even Meng Baiyun feel ashamed.

The imperial concubine hid her pain too deeply, and the wound slowly fermented alone in the dark night, so she suppressed and forced herself like this.

Everyone said that she was as cold as ice and unsmiling. Maybe Meng Baiyun thought she was too cold before, but after today, her impression of her was completely overturned.

She is a romantic person, and she has a romantic and beautiful world in her heart, but the reality is too cruel, which forced her to be like this step by step.

In fact, she should be very eager to be forgiven.

Meng Baiyun forgave her.

She thought her mother would forgive her too.

"Thank you, Baiyun, I will definitely protect your mother with all my might."

"Hehe, then you promise me. Also, the hazelnut cake you made last time, I asked my partner to take it home. My father should eat it."

The imperial concubine was startled, and then her face was a little girlish blush: "He, did he really eat it?"

"It should be, so much, if those gluttons didn't steal it, he will definitely eat it. My father is now very proud. If the people below have anything delicious and fun, they will all contribute to him. Moreover, he will give it to him." You're not very old, so you have to take care, maybe one day, we can see each other again."

See you again.

The imperial concubine never even dreamed about it.

The normally elegant and indifferent person straightened his temples a little bit at this moment, and found that Meng Baiyun was smiling and looking at her, his cheeks flushed, and he was even more embarrassed: "Am I getting old?"

"No, you are very beautiful, probably because you don't like to smile, and you don't have any wrinkles around your eyes. I heard a story about a woman who, in order not to get old and wrinkled, didn't smile for ten years. Tsk tsk, You said that this perseverance has caught up with you."

"Pfft!" Meng Baiyun made a joke, dispelling the dark clouds in the empress dowager's heart, and she suddenly felt relieved. She looked at Meng Baiyun sincerely and gratefully, "Baiyun, I was very jealous of your mother back then, but now I know , she is really a woman worthy of being liked, you can see how well she teaches you."

"Hey, the aunt around you always said that I have a sweet mouth, but in fact you are the sweetest, and you have praised our mother and daughter, but you are right, I am really good."

She is a little treasure, and the imperial concubine was amused again.

It was really late, although Meng Baiyun still wanted to visit her mother, he didn't expect the story of the empress dowager to be so long, it started from dawn to dark.

The people from Xihua Gate had an appointment with her, and she had to change her eunuch uniform.

So, she didn't stop talking and making jokes, and after a few more words with the empress dowager, she left.

As soon as he left the Shoukang Palace, the amused expression on his face subsided. The trick just now was just to make the empress dowager feel better.

The mood is actually heavy.

It's true that she doesn't hate her, but she feels bad, for the dead Meng Baiyun.

She didn't even have time to listen to this story, and she didn't even know that she had a father, who was a famous prince.

Hey, life is really like a drama. A grievance entanglement 20 years ago led to Meng Baiyun's tragic encounter. In the end, she died so unclearly that she took advantage of it for nothing and occupied her body.

Then she can't live up to God's will, and live well.

Coming out of Xihuamen, it went smoothly. I changed my clothes in the carriage waiting outside the palace gate. I don’t know why, but I just heard a story. I couldn’t do it when I was tired, and I didn’t want to tie my hair up. Well, it seems that the dark hair covering the cheeks can hide some emotions.

The carriage arrived at the Meng Mansion, of course it was her Meng Mansion, and when she got off the carriage, she saw Long Aohan waiting there.

Seeing her getting out of the car with her hair disheveled and feeling so depressed, he stepped forward and took her hand: "What's wrong?"

"Heard a bad story."

"It's okay, I have everything."

With the sentence "Everything is mine", the heaviness in Meng Baiyun's heart was gradually lifted, and the sun shone in.

"Come on, go to the study, I have something to tell you."

"Let's eat first, are you hungry?"

"Do not……"

"Grumble."

I'll go, her stomach is too embarrassing for her.
