First wife's original manuscript

Chapter 137

Although the imperial mausoleum of the Jin Dynasty is known as the world's geomantic treasure, and it is said that there is a dragon's veins underneath, but the imperial mausoleum is actually very desolate, and the population is sparsely populated, and food and clothing are very poor.

Most of the emperors and princes who came to pay homage to the imperial mausoleum would only stay for two or three days. Because of the short time, the emperor would naturally feel that the scenery around the imperial mausoleum was good and the accommodation conditions were poor.

Prince Cheng lived in the imperial mausoleum for more than half a month. He could not see the beauty of the scenery around the imperial mausoleum, but only the bleakness.

The branches on the trees were bare, and there were a few crows quacking, adding to the sense of bleakness.

The dark clouds in the sky seemed to cover the sky above Prince Cheng's head, no matter how much he struggled and tore, he couldn't break free from the black curtain that was pressing on his head.

After thanking him, Prince Cheng barely stood up straight. The pride of the prince and the reborn made him unable to show his depression in front of the servant who came to deliver the decree, but the sarcasm on the servant's lips was dazzling no matter how you looked at it.

Prince Cheng seemed even more aloof, hiding the disappointment in his heart through his eyes, and he didn't even have the strength to care about who the palace servant A Wan was.

The servant was very kind, and took the initiative to bring the news of the capital to Prince Cheng, "Before the servant left the capital, the emperor summoned Princess Cheng, and after listening to Princess Cheng playing the piano, His Majesty asked Duke Ding to congratulate him with a flute. Duke Ding didn't agree, and then I didn't know what Princess Cheng said, so Duke Ding brought the jade flute."

The servants were full of admiration, as if they were still reminiscing about the music, "Many people in the palace heard it. This servant can't tell how good it is, but after listening to the ensemble of Wangfei and Duke Ding, this servant has dreamed about it for several nights. ……battlefield."

Prince Cheng lost his voice and said, "The battlefield?"

"Yes, I heard that the emperor sat on the dragon chair for a long time without moving. Duke Ding...wept. The emperor left Duke Ding to talk with candles in the palace that night. In the morning of the next day, the emperor granted Duke Ding again... no If Ding Guogong insists on resigning from the throne, there may be a king of the opposite sex in the Jin Dynasty."

"By the way, Her Royal Highness has also been rewarded."

The servant looked at Prince Cheng's cold and proud face, "You don't have to worry about Her Royal Highness, no one in the capital dares to underestimate Her Highness."

Prince Cheng turned around and left. Zeng Rou really did what she said, without him, she would still live a prosperous and prosperous life... In her previous life, she was honored as the Empress Dowager and the Regent Da Jin, so in his opinion, she lived quite comfortably... She has done everything except not raising noodles.

It is still difficult for a woman to control the court, even if she is famous, with Zeng Xiaoqiang's help. She... Before he disappeared, Zeng Rou handled the country well and firmly held the imperial power, even Zeng Xiaoqiang... ...she didn't even pass a single point.

Abandoning his concubine, making the fourth brother's son the emperor... As long as Prince Cheng thinks about this, he can't wait to strangle Zeng Rou to death.

After rebirth, he looked at her several times while Zeng Rou was sleeping soundly, and put his hands on her neck several times, but he gave up all of them, not because he was reluctant to part with Zeng Rou, but because he didn't know whether his previous life was a dream or a reality Yes, the Zeng Rou in front of him doesn't have the ability to govern the world at all...

Prince Cheng took a sip of wine to relieve the coldness in his heart, "Maybe she has it now."

"My lord intends to stay drunk and wait forever in the imperial mausoleum? Seeing your enemies enjoy the riches and glory in the capital? Seeing them proud?"

Ah Wan walked into the room and stood by the door, her ordinary face showing an extraordinary determination, "I know the prince hates it, and I hate it too...they all look down on the prince, if the prince also despises me, what do you think?" Life is ruined."

"How did you become like this? Where's your pretty face?"

Holding the wine glass, Prince Cheng stared calmly at A Wan's face that could only be called delicate, "Father, did you do something wrong?"

A Wan's body was shivering as if being hit by a cold wind, and she couldn't bear to look back and said: "I would like to thank the emperor for his extrajudicial grace, do you know that the misunderstanding caused by saving you made me... make me almost Is it true that you were given death by the emperor? Prince Cheng... What do I owe you? Why can't I pay it off in two lifetimes? Why are you like a poppy, knowing that you are poisonous, but I can't help leaning on you? Thinking you?"

"Nightmare... You are clearly my nightmare."

Awan's knees softened, and she sat down on her knees, her body curled up into a ball. The only pair of beautiful eyes that remained were filled with tears. She had a good appearance before, and those eyes were as clear and bright as stars falling into them. , her starry eyes are greatly compromised by her ordinary appearance now.

After all, she is the woman that Prince Cheng has admired for several years, and she is the only woman who is willing to accompany him to the imperial mausoleum. Prince Cheng said slowly, "This prince is just your nightmare?"

"My lord, what do you like about me? Can't I change it? Please... let me go."

Prince Cheng could no longer say that he would not let go, he held his forehead, and meditated in pain, why did he like Shang Wan?
Ah Wan burst into tears, "For you, my family is gone, my identity is gone, my appearance is gone... Do you know why I am like this? It is your good princess. The emperor asked her to enter the palace and asked her Do you know what she said about the matter between her and the prince?"

"what?"

"She said, if I were the eldest lady of the Marquis of Anping's mansion and served as a side concubine as an eldest lady, she would rather abdicate to give way to the virtuous, and make peace with you, the prince!"

A Wan cried bitterly, "It was so hard to get the empress dowager to come forward, and I used the only promise the emperor gave me...but everything was messed up by Zeng Rou, the empress dowager planned to praise me, she said.... "

Seeing that she seemed to be stimulated to the extreme, Prince Cheng asked, "What did she say?"

Ordinarily, with Shang Wan's status, he should not be treated like this by the emperor. The emperor is very filial to the queen mother. If the queen mother came forward, Shang Wan should marry into the palace as a side concubine. The prince didn't think that Shang Wan would lose his status. With the Queen Mother protecting her weaknesses, the Queen Mother would give Shang Wan enough dignity and decency.

The old lady of the Compassionate Ning Palace doesn't pay much attention to anything, only longevity is what she values ​​most.

Not only did Shang Wan cure her hidden illness, but it was also the key to her longevity. The Empress Dowager was so afraid of death, how could she be willing to let Shang Wan go?

"She said to the Queen Mother..."

Ah Wan recalled Zeng Rou at that time, in front of the silent emperor and concubine Shu, and in front of the pressing empress dowager, Zeng Rou stood upright, her waist had never been bent, her expression was so proud , so proud that Shang Wan dwarfed him.

"The grand-daughter-in-law invited by the empress dowager dare not disobey, but the grand-daughter-in-law is the concubine who was hired by the prince with three matchmakers. Although her mother's family is withered, the dignity of the concubine cannot be tarnished. Concubine is the righteous way that has been followed for thousands of years. If Anping The eldest lady of the Hou Mansion entered the door as a side concubine. I don't want to be insulted by this, so I beg the queen mother to let me go, or... I will crash to death here with the bones and blood in my stomach, and use my blood to prove that the world The royal family set an example by Wanmin will definitely not mess with the three cardinal guides and five permanent rules, and the wives and concubines are right!"

Prince Cheng stared at Awan, she repeated Zeng Rou's words, Prince Cheng seemed to see Zeng Rou in Awan... When he was still floating in the sky above the palace, he saw how the courtiers perfunctory her, he Naturally, she also saw that at the gate of the palace, she ordered the execution of sixteen corrupt officials.

He also remembered that Zeng Rou said in court, 'No matter when, no matter what the reason, corruption will never be forgiven. '

The officials killed by the battle had outstanding achievements, and they also had backers in the court, and the common people also wrote letters to excuse them, saying that they had countless benefits, even Zeng Xiaoqiang backed down, and kept his mind to protect them. At worst, he was dismissed and demoted, but only The Empress Dowager Zeng Rou ordered them to be killed, and blamed the censor who interceded for corrupt officials, and asked them to go home and figure out how to be a censor.

'Unfavorable handling of affairs is a matter of ability. Aijia will be tolerant as appropriate and use you where you can best reflect your strengths. But corruption is a matter of morality. Aijia really doesn't understand. Because they have done good deeds, can they offset corruption and ask for bribes?No matter how capable a person with questionable moral character is, he doesn't need to mourn his family. '

Prince Cheng pressed his head, who... who is talking?Is it Zeng Rou?Or the empress dowager who overwhelmed the courtiers?

After rebirth, he remembered the resentment towards Zeng Rou, but he ignored some things.

"My lord."

Seeing that Prince Cheng was in pain, Ah Wan stepped forward and hugged him, and gently rubbed his cheek against Prince Cheng's back, "The emperor gave me a choice, whether to become a monk and return to vulgar life, or to change my identity and follow the prince... I follow my heart I chose the lord...Since I can't avoid or let go of the lord, I can only come back to you again. But this time, I have one heart with the lord, we are true love, and we will be happy. Zeng Rou's tricks can't beat you Praise us."

Prince Cheng's body tensed up.

A Wan continued, "In the past, we had endless quarrels because of the grievances and grievances in our previous life. It was because we couldn't let go of each other. I could only hide my concern for the prince with resentment, and hide that I still love the prince with alienation and rejection. We are struggling. Too much time wasted getting close, my lord, now that I'm with you, who in the world is still our opponent?"

"Who is better at grasping this era than us? Although there are accidents and changes from previous lives, major events will never change."

"My lord, let's stop trying to hate each other."

"Time waits for no one, my lord, if there is another chance, my lord, your ambition will be in vain."
