Stir-fried Datang: The Strongest Daughter

Chapter 641 The price of growth

"Miss, what are you doing with your neck shrinking?! Your grandfather is General Youwuwei, Inspector of Luzhou, Duke Lu..."

"Xiao Niang, you are the only daughter of my Duke Lu, from now on you will hold your head up high for your mother!"

"Xiao Niang, as long as my mother is alive, I will never let you be wronged again..."

"Little mother, this deer fetal ointment is very precious. Mother left two copies for you, but I dare not tell your sister-in-law, otherwise I should blame my mother for being partial..."

"Little mother, don't be afraid, mother is here, don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."

"Little girl..."

Scenes of the past emerged in front of her eyes like a tide, and tears blurred her vision.Stretching out his hand, he desperately moved forward, trying to grab something, but he saw Pei smiling at him outside the door, then turned and left.

"Don't, go, don't go, mother! Don't go, mother!"

"Little sister, little sister, get up, get up..."

Cheng Chuliang went forward to hug her up, and after a while, Li Chengqian also rushed over there.Someone came to report the funeral just now, and he rushed here as soon as he heard the news. His wife and mother-in-law have a deep relationship, and her spirit has just improved a little recently, fearing that she would not be able to bear the blow, he immediately put down his official business and hurried over.

Seeing his wife leaning on the chair half dead, the clothes on her chest were still stained with blood, her pupils shrank suddenly, and she stepped forward and scolded: "Are you dead?! Hurry up and see the queen!"

"I want to see Mommy, I want to see Mommy!"

Yang Xiaoran struggled to get up, but when he sat up, he held his stomach violently, and with a "vomit", a big mouthful of black blood spit out, everyone was shocked.

Li Chengqian looked at his wife in disbelief, his body couldn't help shaking violently, with a hint of uncertainty, "Xiang'er?"

"Plop!" Qiu Ju knelt down and cried loudly, "Forgive me, Your Majesty! The eldest girl has been ill for a long time, yes, it's nausea! There are not many days left..."

"What did you say?"

Li Chengqian swayed a few times, and the little yellow door beside him immediately supported him. He stared at his wife with wide eyes, only to feel that his eyes were turning black.Cheng Chuliang opened his mouth wide, no matter how ignorant he was, he would not be ignorant of nausea.

For a moment, I felt my soul leaving my body, and I was at a loss as to how to react.

Yang Xiaoran wiped off the blood, and said: "I'm fine...help me up, I'm going to see my mother..."

"You, how long are you going to hide it from me?!"

Li Chengqian suddenly said hysterically: "Didn't you agree with me not to hide anything from the other party, you, you..."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

Li Chengqian pushed open the little yellow door that supported him, stepped forward to hug her, tears fell uncontrollably, and tremblingly, he said: "You, why are you always so cruel?"

"Brother Prince..."

Her mouth was bitter, and she cried: "I, can I tell you later? My mother is gone... My mother is gone, I, I want to see her... That's my mother, my mother! "

The voice is mournful and desolate.

The older you get, the more you can foresee the arrival of this day.It's just that in the bottom of my heart, I always look forward to this day coming later, later, and I only hope that my parents can live a few more years.Even though she was mentally prepared, how could she accept that Mrs. Pei left so silently and unexpectedly?

She couldn't tell what she was feeling right now, she just felt that she was in a daze, and she couldn't even feel the pain coming from her stomach.

Seeing her crying, Li Chengqian held back the grief in his heart, and immediately ordered: "Get ready immediately, I will go to the funeral with the queen!"

"Yes!"

Everyone got busy, and Cheng Chuliang, who had been stunned for a long time, suddenly knelt down on the ground with a plop, was silent for a while, and suddenly raised his head and cursed: "God! Are you blind?! God! Our Cheng family is doing What evil?! Didn’t do something utterly devoid of conscience! My mother is gone, my little sister is sick, God, you’re blind, you’re blind!”

Cheng Chuliang's mournful and desolate screams spread far away, and Xiao Huangmenfen, the maid serving in Ganlu Palace, secretly wiped away tears.Compared with Mrs. Guo's death, the news of the queen's sudden illness made them even more sad.

The queen treats people generously, and when doing things here, she often does not realize that she is serving others.That kind of lenient attitude towards others is not pretended by the queen. The queen treats them as human beings. How can they not feel sad when they hear that the queen has a serious disease and vomits blood, or black blood?
The carriage left the Taiji Palace leisurely, the imperial guards in the palace cleared the streets, and the imperial driver of the emperor headed towards Shengyefang.

Yang Xiaoran was extremely weak, and the sudden and heavy blow shattered her strength.Leaning in Li Chengqian's arms, both of them were silent.

Lu Guogong's mansion was already completely white, when Yang Xiaoran got out of the car and saw the old father with white hair at the door, he felt more and more sad.

Kneeling at the gate with a plop, shouting: "The unfilial girl Cheng Huanzhu pays her respects to her parents!"

Cheng Yaojin stepped forward tremblingly, helped her up, wiped away tears with his head sideways, and said: "My dear boy, go in and see your mother, she has been waiting for you for a long time..."

After speaking, he brought his family to bow to the emperor, Li Chengqian avoided the ceremony, and did not say much, and helped his wife into the room.

The mourning hall has been set up, and the well-dressed Mrs. Pei is lying in the coffin. The once famous beauty is now just a silent old lady with a serene face and silver hair.

Mrs. Pei looked very peaceful, even with a smile on her face, as if she had fallen asleep.

"It makes people see..."

Cheng Yaojin's voice came, "Your mother walked quietly, she didn't die of illness, she just got old..."

Yang Xiaoran shook his head, holding back his tears and said: "Auntie is not yet eighty, why did she die of old age..."

"Because I lost you when I was young and got a heart attack, and later I was stimulated. In fact, I haven't recovered all these years..."

Cheng Yaojin sighed, wiped his tears with his hand, and said, "Don't be sad, child. At the age of parents, it's inevitable..."

Cheng Chuliang bit his lip, wanting to tell his father that the younger sister was seriously ill.But when he remembered the warning from his sister on the road, he held back again.

Grandpa is not young anymore, he can't stand the stimulation anymore, he is almost fifty soon, how can grandpa not be old?

The second brother Cheng, who has lived heartlessly since he was a child, feels melancholy at this moment, and the past flashes before his eyes alternately like a picture.

At that time, they were still so young, but in a blink of an eye, their parents turned gray, and they were old too, and they all became grandfathers.

It turns out that the cruelest thing in this world is not not being unable to fight on the battlefield, but growing up.

Sanskrit sounds emerged, and Pei believed in Buddhism. When he left, there were no Taoist priests, only monks came to chant scriptures.Bianji brought people over in person and prayed devoutly for this kind lady.

Cheng Yaojin was very stupid when he was young, but since his daughter became a princess, he has grown older, and gradually felt that killing was too much when he was young. Hearing Pei's words, he would often help the poor, or send some rice, vegetable oil to the temple , add a little incense money.

At this time, temples often acted as orphanages, and it was convenient to send more rice and grain to them.

After a long time, people have forgotten how terrible the big devil was before, and instead they all praised him as the family of good deeds.Pei family has a good name in the capital, many people came to express their condolences, even many poor people also came, kowtow respectfully outside the door three times before slowly leaving.

Yang Xiaoran stayed in the mourning hall for three days, no matter what others said, she never left.

She remembered that when the Pei family found Xiao Qingguan, she swore that she would treat her parents in this body as her biological mother.Now that her loving mother has passed away, this is her last chance to be filial.

Thinking of her own body, she didn't know if she would have a chance to pay homage to her old man in the future, so she just wanted to spend more time with her and consider their mother-daughter relationship.

Li Chengqian was very sad at first, but when he learned that his wife was terminally ill, it seemed that his mother-in-law's departure was not so sad.He was full of thoughts about his wife's illness, and about the possibility that he had guessed before.

Heaven, did retribution fall on her? !
why? !

You can take yourself away!

On the day of Pei's burial, Li Chengqian secretly swore to Pei, only praying that her spirit in heaven would protect her daughter. Take his Xiang'er.

Mrs. Pei left peacefully. This time, Yang Xiaoran truly experienced what it means to be heartbroken.

Li Yuan, Li Er, and her eldest grandson left, she was in pain, but she was suffering more from her own unknowable future fate; but Pei Shi, the departure of her biological mother gave her a heavy mental blow.

After all, Li Er, the eldest grandson is not her biological mother no matter how close she is.Or, to be precise, the woman who brought her back from the wilderness has a very special feeling for her, which is different from ordinary mothers and daughters in the world.

Without Pei, there would be no Empress Cheng today.Being able to be a good queen is inseparable from Pei's devilish education back then.

Without her old man's good intentions, how could I have such an elegant and decent demeanor today?It was Pei who helped him integrate into this society and become a Tang person.

They are mother and son, but they are also friends.

Now that she is gone, Yang Xiaoran only feels that there is a void in his heart, something has been dug away.

For several days in a row, I lay in bed, at a loss for what to do.The condition became serious again, and when he returned to the palace, Li Chengqian immediately called a group of people, including Sun Simiao, who was already very old, to see Yang Xiaoran.

But no matter who looked at it, they all shook their heads. Sun Simiao sighed and said, "It's a miracle that your mother can live to this day. This nauseating lady has said before that it is a tumor. When the pain appears, it has infiltrated other organs. Your Majesty, forgive me... ..."

Li Chengqian's body trembled unceasingly, he grabbed Sun Simiao's shoulder uncontrollably, and said anxiously: "Master Daoist, is there really nothing we can do?"

Sun Simiao shook his head, "Your Majesty should be more knowledgeable than the poor Taoist mother. She has been hiding it from you, which means that she has long known that the disease is incurable. The old Taoist felt her pulse, and she should take care of it herself... The female doctor also said that the stomach It feels like the lump is no longer small, and it's amazing to be able to survive until now..."
