Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 309 Legacy
There was a big fire in the palace, and it burned earth-shatteringly. I don't know how many people were implicated and disappeared. The officials are kind and kind, otherwise, it would be more troublesome.

At noon, Su Tong was resting, and a servant in the palace came to deliver the order.

Fu Ye was taken aback, thinking that something big had happened. After all, Su Tong, as the minister's wife, actually got the government's will. This matter really has to make people wonder.

Unexpectedly, it was the last words left by the imperial concubine, leaving some of her precious jewelry and favorite playthings, two hot spring villages in the suburbs of Beijing to Su Tong.

Su Tong was also taken aback by receiving such a decree, and suddenly remembered that the last time he saw Li Niangniang was in Changchun Palace.

Su Tong didn't like to go to the palace very much. Firstly, there was Lady Liu on the head of Lady Li, and after hearing from Zhao Wanrong, the official didn't know what was wrong, but he actually thought that Su Tong was his favorite beauty. Su Tong always wants to avoid suspicion, but also can't stand the rules of the palace, every time he goes in, he is reluctant.

On that day, Li Niangniang was sitting in the Changchun Palace and asked her to accompany her. She could see her thoughts at a glance and couldn't help laughing: "Hey, okay, okay, I will try not to embarrass you as much as possible in the future. Who told us Miss A Tong to be me?" savior."

At that time, her complexion was very good, and she was dressed gracefully and luxuriously, just like a real woman in the royal family. It was just the traces left by the years between the corners of her eyes and brows, but they could never be erased. Well, it seems to be pretending, unlike Liu Niangniang, even if she is dressed in coarse cloth, others will think she has confidence at first sight.

Su Tong talked with Li Niangniang for a long time, thinking about it now, maybe Li Niangniang felt it at that time.

"At first, I thought I would never be able to let the emperor call me mother, but I didn't expect that I, a daughter from a poor family, could have the fortune I have today."

Li Niangniang looked at Su Tong and laughed, "It's your credit."

Su Tong laughed. Seeing that she was in a good mood, she also became a little joking: "Don't just praise and praise, at least give some gold, silver and jewelry."

Li Niangniang really thought about it carefully: "I don't have it now, I can't use the things in the palace to repay my own favor, how about this, when my jewelry box is no longer needed, I will leave it to you and myself The things you buy will be yours in the future, I just hope that we, Tong, will not dislike me, an old woman, for wearing them."

"As long as you are willing to give, I will take as much as you want." Su Tong narrowed his eyes, "No woman would dislike having too many jewelry, and she is only happy with Chengshan."

The Li Niangniang that Su Tong saw before was always covered in spikes, making people uncomfortable, like a taut string, ready to hurt others and herself at any time.Seeing her now, she is like a piece of smoothed, soft satin, which makes people feel very comfortable to the touch. Su Tong is good at reading people's minds, and at that moment he felt that Li Niangniang's long-cherished wish in her life had been fulfilled, I don't have any regrets either, I just don't know if it's good or not?
Both Fu Ye and Zhao Wanrong said it was a good thing.

Su Tong thought, maybe don't let her be too relieved, don't let her reunite with the emperor too soon, it may be more beneficial to her own situation.

Years of sorrow, depression and joy have destroyed her health, completely destroyed, Su Tong thought, her radiance may be just an illusion, the inside is empty, no matter how bright the outside is, it will still rot after all.

But Su Tong can't do anything, and can't do anything, just try to say some happy things to make her happy, and said that in the future, Li Niangniang will forget what she said today when she hugs her grandchildren, and keep all her good things I gave it to my precious granddaughter, how can I still remember Su Tong?
The words of that day are still in my ears, but Li Niangniang passed away earlier than Su Tong expected.

In fact, Su Tong originally thought that Empress Li would be able to delay Empress Liu and leave later than Empress Liu. After all, the age gap between the two parties is not small, and Li Empress has always had a knot with the Queen Mother. If the Queen Mother does not go for a day, She should also try her best not to leave, wanting to see what will happen to that person in the end.

But no one is as good as God.

The servant came to deliver the decree, but Su Tong held the decree in a daze.

Fu Ye had no choice but to support herself to entertain, and asked someone to collect the imperial decree, sent the servant away with a red envelope reward, and helped Su Tong to see her precious daughter.

"...I have no friendship with Li Niangniang. To put it bluntly, it can only be regarded as the relationship between a doctor and a patient."

Fu Ye frowned: "I don't know what the Queen Mother will think?"

This time when Li Niangniang died of illness, none of her belongings were left to the official family, but the bulk was given to Su Tong. Other personal things, except those buried with her, were distributed to the envoys around her as dowry, and two She gave Zhao Wanrong the beads she strung together herself, presumably hoping to keep them as a souvenir.

Su Tong and Fu Ye didn't know about it at first, but Zhao Wanrong was the one who got the most out of the news and revealed the news. In fact, her most precious thing was not given to Su Tong.

Li Niangniang has a precious orb that she carries with her, which was given by the former emperor. Li Niangniang cherishes it very much and never leaves her body easily. When she died, she confessed that the orb does not need to be buried with her. She will take it to Liu Ranran's tombstone shattered.

When Zhao Wanrong heard the news, she sighed for a long time, and Su Tong was even more confused.

"Speaking of which, it's a pity that I have been at night for a few years, and I haven't seen the demeanor of Liu Ranran, the most beautiful woman in the world. I heard that no matter men or women, everyone who sees her will be addicted to her talent and appearance. Even small animals , cats, dogs, birds, fish and insects, will bow their heads when they see her."

Fu Ye didn't know the specific relationship between Liu Ranran and Su Tong, even though he was the emperor's spy, the more he was like this, the more taboo he was about certain secrets, and he never went too far.At this moment, she was just sighing casually, how could Miss Su be speechless after hearing this - in the rumors, Liu Ranran is no longer a person.

Li Niangniang's funeral was buried according to the Queen Mother's specifications.

Su Tong also had the honor to go to the funeral.

Empress Dowager Liu did not show up. Of course, these foreign ministers could not get any news from the palace, nor did they know how the emperor would have his biological mother buried as empress dowager.

Su Tong felt that the most likely reaction of Empress Dowager Liu was to agree. Although she agreed now, it was not as good as going to her immediately to follow Lu Yijian's suggestion and give Li Niangniang a grand burial, but it was better than singing against the emperor. If there is another word from the Empress Dowager Liu at this time, what will happen to the emperor if she is here, once she goes, the Liu family will inevitably bear the emperor's anger.

It is said that the imperial concubine passed away, and the officials were heartbroken. After three days of dismissal, Lu Xianggong and several other ministers went to persuade her, but the effect was not good.

It was the Empress Dowager who ordered him not to mourn too much.
