Concubine's Handbook of Good Life in Ancient Times

Chapter 191

So there is nothing between the emperor and the empress?
A gust of wind blew in, and Shu Ning's long hair was blown on her face by the wind, blocking her sight.Her fingers gently hooked the hair behind her ears, but she couldn't make all the hair obediently stay where she wanted them to stay.

The queen was putting the clothes into the fire one by one, and the wind amplified the fire, and soon all the clothes were burned clean.

Today's weather is not very good, there are dark clouds in the windy sky.To be honest, this is not a good day to go out.But the queen still came out, and she sat in front of the tomb for half a day every year.Those who followed the queen had long been used to it, Shuning was supported by Hou Lin, and she also found a stone to sit on.

The fire in front of the tomb was gradually extinguished, and the clothes brought by the queen were also reduced to ashes.

The queen caressed the words on the tombstone, and tears flowed down her soft face onto the ashes.

Shu Ning was far away, but at this moment she seemed to smell the salt in the wind.It was the smell of tears, sour and astringent, which made her want to cry too.

Who is buried in that tombstone?He actually got the emperor to agree that the queen would visit his tomb every year and make clothes for him.The empress is different from the concubine, she is the emperor's original spouse. She did this and the emperor didn't get angry, but even accompanied her. Sure enough, there are too many secrets hidden in the harem, and today she personally witnessed a person who was not at all angry at all. possible secrets.

Her face was a little wet, Shuning thought she was crying.

"Master, it's raining."

Hou Lin stretched out his hand, and soon someone brought an umbrella over.

But they couldn't get close to the queen, and in the end they could only look at the noble concubine and master longingly.

"give it to me!"

Shuning took the umbrella.

Holding on, holding the other in her hand, Shu Ning walked towards the secret.

"elder sister."

The umbrella blocked the rain and continued to fall on the Queen's hair. The Queen looked up at her, and continued to lean against the tombstone in silence.

Only then did Shuning see the words on the tombstone: the tomb of her husband Jingran, his wife Shen Minli.

Just nine words, revealed too much information.

Shuning didn't know who Jing Ran was, but she knew the word Shen Min.

Although no one dared to call out the queen's boudoir name, there were quite a few people who knew it.This man named Jing Ran is actually the queen's husband. Is there a more deceitful secret in this world?
"Would you like to hear me tell a story?"

The queen spoke suddenly.

"If my sister doesn't mind."

Shu Ning sat directly next to the queen, and did not open the other umbrella, so she and the queen shared one umbrella.

"Jing Ran used to be the second son of the family in Beijing. As the second son, even if he is not as good as his elder brother, he can inherit the title and has the support of the whole family, but he is the first son after all, so the family will not ignore him. But Jing Ran didn't like being an official. He liked to practice martial arts and wanted to be a general to defend his family and country. But his family didn't allow him, so they sent him to the palace to be the first prince at that time, who is now the emperor's sidekick. read."

Following the queen's narration, a poignant love gradually unfolded in front of Shuning.

At that time, the situation of the first son was not good, but because of the opposition of the ministers, it was not easy for the former emperor to let another favored prince inherit the throne.

Although Jing Ran is the second son of the family, but because his elder brother took refuge in another prince who was favored at that time, and he was sent to the side of the prince by the family, eggs cannot be put in the same basket. There are still many people who understand the sentence.

Jing Ran became the companion of the first prince, although he is not a popular prince, but the first prince has a noble status, and no one dares to bully the first prince on the surface.And compared to the other princes, the son-in-law has a gentle temperament, never puts on the airs of a prince in front of Jing Ran, and is better than a brother even though he is not a brother to Jing Ran.

Both of them are legitimate sons, but they are both not very valued. They share a common mood, and the relationship between them ranges from a companion to a prince, to brothers with different surnames who have deep feelings.They walked this road for ten years, from young children to teenagers.

One day, Jing Ran went out to run errands with the prince, the two passed by a restaurant, it happened to be lunch time, and they went in.I asked for a private room, but I didn't know that before I went in, suddenly a private room next to it was pushed away, a girl ran out from it, and just ran into Jing Ran's arms.

If it is left for future generations, it is definitely the best way to meet the gifted scholars and beautiful ladies on TV!

And in fact, it is true.

Jing Ran fell in love at first sight with the girl who ran into his arms, and the girl was also attracted by Jing Ran's righteousness.As for why it's not about looks, there is a prince who is much more handsome than Jing Ran beside him!It's a pity that people just took a fancy to Jingran, and the direct prince didn't even look straight at him.

This is the first time that the direct prince encountered a situation where he was invincible and failed in the harem, but he was not angry because he knew what it means that brothers and wives should not play tricks.

It's a pity that although this girl is an official lady, she is the daughter of a small official, how can she be worthy of Jing Ran's status.The Jing family also wanted Jing Ran to marry a noble daughter for them and marry another family!So when Jing Ran proposed to marry a small official's family, he refused without even thinking about it, and warned him to be honest, otherwise don't blame the family for being merciless to that small official's family.

Because of the Jing family's warning, Jing Ran didn't dare to get close to the girl's family publicly, but in private, he relied on the direct prince to help them deliver the message.Although this seems to be against etiquette now, it was also a helpless thing for Jing Ran and the queen at that time.

Fortunately, the prince sympathizes with them and wants them to be together. After all, it is impossible for the prince himself to have a sincere love, so he instead hopes that the people around him can find a wife who is like him.

But the Jing family didn't give him face at all, and kept obstructing Jing Ran and Shen Min.So the first prince told Jing Ran to let them wait for a few years, and after a few years he would propose a marriage for them.

At that time, the direct prince already had a powerful force in his hands. Although they were all in the dark, the direct prince was confident that he could use the past few years to completely suppress the other princes and win the throne.

Although Jing Ran and Shen Min have only known each other for a short time, the relationship between them is extremely strong.The Shen family only had her one daughter, and the Shen family's parents still cared about their daughter's happiness.So they agreed, of course there is also the reason of the first prince.
