famous concubine

Chapter 42

In front of Dongfangyu, the servants dared to taunt her openly with a sarcastic tone, and their eyes were as disdainful as they could say.

Facing their disdainful eyes and contemptuous tone, Dongfangyu didn't show any excessive anger, she was just a little surprised, thinking with her toes, the servants must be instigated by someone who tried so hard to smear Mei Ruge.

She asked very calmly: "Mother Luo, what kind of person was my mother's second wife in her lifetime, how could she arouse such deep resentment from the old lady and his wife at the same time?"

Mother Luo looked at the peerless young girl in front of her kindly, sighed, and said quietly: "When the second madam came in, the old madam strongly opposed it, and because of this, the relationship with the general was very tense; as for the madam... ..." Her eyes darkened, and she looked at the girl with a bit of pity: "Since the general insisted on marrying the second wife as an equal wife, the general has stayed in Luyi Garden until the second wife passed away. I have never slept in the lady's courtyard again."

Dongfang Yu frowned, no wonder the wife and her children hated her so much, it turned out that there was such a jealousy in the past.

But what about the old lady?

A thought flashed through her mind: "Why does the old lady object to my mother's entry?"

Mother Luo shook her head dejectedly: "This... I don't know the reason, the second lady kept her mouth shut about it all the time, and she didn't tell the servant until she died. She only told the servant to take good care of the young lady."

"The general, oh, I mean, my father seldom comes back these years?"

Mother Luo sighed softly, with a sad expression on her face, she said softly: "Since the second wife passed away, the general seldom stays in the mansion, and only comes back to live for a while every year on the anniversary of the second wife's death. It is to pay homage to the second wife and to come in and clean the green garden in person."

Dongfang Yu's heart seemed to be stuffed with ice, and he was so cold that he panicked: "Since he comes back every year, has he never come to see me?"

Mother Luo didn't want to see the girl's disappointed eyes, but she had to lower her head to avoid the girl's bright eyes, and shook her head slightly.

Dongfang Yu's heart was heavy, and he couldn't figure out the weirdness in it. If Dongfang Ye was ruthless to her mother and never cared about her, it would make sense, but Dongfang Ye has been thinking about a dead person for more than ten years, which clearly shows that he is very sad. He valued Mei Ruge, but why would he deliberately ignore the child of the two... the Oriental language?
"Does my father think that my stupidity before made him particularly ashamed, so he has always disliked me?"

Luo's mother frowned and recalled for a while, before she said quietly: "Miss, I don't think this is the case. When the second lady was still alive, the general always liked the lady very much. At that time, when he returned to the mansion, the first thing he did was go to Luyi Garden to hug her." The young lady teased the young lady to play, and when the young lady fell ill, the general refused to give anyone a hand, and always took care of the young lady by his side."

The haze in Dongfang Yu's heart dissipated a little, at least he was not the same as the previous life, he was a child abandoned by his parents.

She asked some more about Mei Ruge's past in detail, but Luo's mother could provide very limited information, and she couldn't ask anything, so she put the matter on hold.

However, the next day, just after dawn, the deserted imperial capital with few passers-by suddenly became agitated by the Queen's order.

"Mei Ruge, the late second wife of General Dongfang, was reported by others for her bad moral character and humiliation. After a long period of investigation by the palace, the report was true. Now I hereby issue an order to pardon Mei Ruge's second wife's status, and she will be demoted as a contemptuous person." Concubine, ordered to move her grave out of the Dongfang Family Mausoleum, and the spiritual seat can no longer be enshrined in the ancestral hall of the Dongfang Mansion; her daughter Dongfangyu was also demoted to a concubine at the same time..."

While angrily, Yanzhi whispered the Yizhi she had just torn off from the street, and from time to time peeked at the girl who was lazily leaning on the window lattice with sympathetic and sad eyes.

Until she finished reading without missing a word, the girl still maintained the same posture and the same indifferent expression, smiling and raising her head to stare at the chirping bird on a tree outside the window.

"Miss..." Yanzhi choked up, and called out sadly and worriedly: "You...don't let it go, even though the servant girl is very sad, but, but... If the general sees this imperial edict, he will definitely not Someone moved the tomb of the second lady..."

"Silly girl, why are you crying!" Dongfang Yu looked back lightly, his eyes were more translucent than ever and amazingly clear: "Mother is no longer here, what's the point of obsessing about identity and spirit bits? I'm not sad, on the contrary... "

The girl smiled faintly, her eyes were slightly cold, and the dark light flickered one after another, radiating a coldness in the room, but she just stopped there and didn't say any more.

Although the queen's imperial edict is not an imperial edict, for Dongfang Mansion, its power is no different from that of an imperial edict.In less than an hour, the streets of the imperial capital were covered with this edict.And Dongfang Mansion is also extremely busy at this moment because of this Yizhi.

Compared with Rouge's anger and exposed sadness, although Luo's mother was worried, she still looked at the smiling girl calmly: "Miss, what are your plans now? If you order, they will definitely act soon. The lights are off, everything is empty, but we can't just watch them give the second lady's tomb to..."

The girl looked back slightly, paused, and said slowly: "I'm afraid this will not be up to us, Madam must have waited for this day for a long time, mother's grave..." The girl's eyes turned cold, and she said quickly: "We are now Immediately go to the ancestral hall, and invite your mother's spiritual seat to Luyi Garden to enshrine."

When Luo Mama and Yanzhi heard this, they walked out immediately.

"By the way, Mother Luo, do you know what is the special relationship between our wife and the current queen?" Dongfang Yu thought for a while, from yesterday when the old lady and his wife broke into the green garden to search, to this morning , It only took half a day, where did the Queen get such accurate news?

If a woman in the deep palace who is the mother of the world has no special relationship with the wife, if it is only because she has divorced the queen's son in a mad manner before, the queen will definitely not make such a decree quickly.

Perhaps there is some kind of special relationship between the queen and his wife, or with her mother, Mei Ruge?
Mother Luo paused, frowned and thought for a while before she hesitated and said uncertainly: "This... I can't tell the servant girl. In the early years, the servant girl seems to have heard that the wife and the queen are old acquaintances, but what is the relationship between the two of you?" , the servant girl can’t tell.”

Dongfang Yu frowned slightly, but after thinking about it, everything will come to light one day, why should she be in a hurry, and then smiled: "It's okay, mother Luo, why don't we hurry to the ancestral hall?"

Regardless of the relationship between the wife and the queen, from the current point of view, the queen's decree does have the intention of punishing her previous arrogance.
