MTL - Pihanjin-Chapter 2
The princess went out of Dongting and followed the Shu Road to Kuizhou to marry the Xie family. Xie Jialang left her in a hurry on the wedding night, so there is no need to mention it again, it was a last resort. But over the past six months, the contempt of Mother Xie, the quest for perfection of the princess, and the servants of the Mu family who came with the marriage were not seen in their eyes and hurt in their hearts?
Unexpectedly, when she woke up early in the morning, the princess seemed to be a different person, and said that she would go back to Dongting, she was so happy.
Some of the maids followed the house to pack things, some immediately ran out and called the steward to summon Zi Dingfu, and quickly arranged carriages and horses to prepare for the road, all of them were very busy.
Unlike the elated maids, although Mama Mu was deeply aggrieved by the princess and a little dissatisfied with the Xie family, the decision of the princess was too sudden and seemed a bit abnormal.
She remembered that when the princess had just opened the door and showed her face, those eyes that could not hide the tears, she felt more and more uneasy. She entered the room and saw the princess herself folding some underwear, hesitating, and followed her beside her. He asked softly, "Master Weng cried this morning? Can you tell your mother why you want to go back to Dongting all of a sudden?"
Fulan turned her face and met Mu's mother's caring eyes staring at her, and another burst of grief filled her heart.
It was a kind of sadness with infinite resentment, but also infinite gratitude.
Her parents are affectionate. Although his father was the king of Changsha, he had only one queen in his life. After her mother died of illness when she was ten years old, the old wounds left by her father's early battles also relapsed, and her health was getting worse day by day. When she was thirteen years old, shortly after the marriage was set for her, she followed her mother away.
Although her parents are no longer in this world, she has also lost that dream-like illusion, but she truly feels in her heart that everything should be the love of her previous life that happened in real life—the kind of pain that makes her heart cry. , told her to cry uncontrollably when she woke up this morning.
But she was still lucky.
She became her sixteen-year-old self.
In this new life, she and her previous life will be separated from each other, and there will be no chance of seeing each other again, but she has the opportunity to save her brother, she has a kind sister-in-law, My mother treated her so well and used her life to protect her family.
She tried her best to force back the enthusiasm in her eyes and said, "I'm fine, I just had a nightmare last night, don't worry, mom."
"Mother Mu, I want to go back to Dongting, and I have made up my mind."
After a pause, she said again.
The princess has always been gentle and obedient since she was a child.
It was the first time that Mother Mu saw her decide something in such a tone. There was absolutely no room for negotiation with anyone.
Although she was still confused, she stopped asking questions and said softly, "Okay. Lord Weng wants to go back to Dongting, so let's go back."
Mu Fulan came to the table, took a wax-sealed letter that she had written this morning, and handed it over.
"Mother Mu, you can send a competent person to deliver this letter to my sister-in-law as quickly as possible! I have something important, and I need to let my sister-in-law know as soon as possible. There are many of us, and we will be on the way. Hurry up, I'm afraid there will be a delay."
"This letter is extremely important. Please!"
She emphasized it again in a serious tone.
Mu's mother became more and more puzzled, but seeing her solemn expression, she nodded, took the letter, turned around and hurried out.
Fulan watched Mama Mu's back go away, and slowly exhaled.
"Master Weng, go back this time. When you come back, the weather must be cold. Should you bring this fox fur or that cloak? Or both?"
Dan Zhu pointed to a few winter clothes and asked her what she liked.
Fu Lan turned around and said, "Pack up all the books I brought when I came, including the medical books, and the pair of Zhou Kui-pattern bottles on the shelf. The clothes are optional, just enough to change on the way back."
Dan Zhu was taken aback.
When the princess married here, in addition to the generous dowry, she also brought many of her books, including medical books.
The pair of Zhou Kui-patterned bottles were the favorites of the late old Changsha King. The king of Changsha loves his sister and adds it to his dowry as a thought for his sister.
Danzhu thought that the princess was just going back to stay for a while. I don't know why, discarding clothes and picking up these inconvenient heavy objects?
"Master?"
She was a little confused.
"Just do as I ordered."
Fulan smiled at her.
The maid had no choice but to nod, and the commander continued to pack up.
"Old lady, slow down! Be careful of the steps!"
Suddenly a voice came from the door.
Fulan turned around.
Mother Xie hurried over from the direction of the main room, without Qiu Ju's help, she stepped over the steps by herself and stopped at the door of the east wing. The faces of the open boxes on the ground sank.
"Ms. Mu, what do you mean? Qiu Ju told me just now, I still don't believe it! Are you really going back to your parents' house?"
Seeing that Mother Xie was coming, Danzhu Zhuyu and the others stopped what they were doing and looked at Fulan.
Fulan watched Mother Xie, greeted her at the door, and said respectfully, "Mother-in-law, come in and sit down. Because the schedule is a bit rushed, and there are a lot of things to pack, I didn't go over to tell you just now, don't be surprised."
Mother Xie frowned tightly together, and said angrily, "Although my son left on the night of the wedding, it was also the emperor's fate, and it wasn't that he didn't want to stay! You married to my house, just I have thanked the people in my family, it's not that I will definitely not let you go back to your parents' house, but it's just been so long before you're going to go back?"
Fulan was silent and did not answer.
Xie Mu paused.
"I'm an orphan, and I don't have the blessing of a daughter-in-law to serve. I recognize it. It's just that my son wants to come back soon. When he comes back, you're not here. What kind of decency?"
Fulan said, "It's my fault, mother-in-law, calm down."
Just this sentence, nothing more.
The attitude is still respectful, but the meaning is very obvious.
That was the trip to her mother's house, and she had to go back.
The Mu family's daughter had been in school for more than half a year, and in front of her, she was extremely obedient. Mother Xie had eaten such a soft nail for the first time, and she was even more annoyed. It's just that after all, she was still a little afraid of her identity, and she didn't dare to be too violent. She managed to suppress her anger and snorted.
"Ms. Mu, I know that you are a princess and a weng master. You don't look down on my Xie family. I'm an old country woman, and I don't deserve to be your mother-in-law. You must go back to your mother's house, and I dare not let you go. It's just that Before you leave, I have to let you know about something, lest you come back and complain."
How could Mu Fulan not guess what she wanted to say?
"Does the mother-in-law want to bring the Qi family's daughter into the door?"
Her tone was calm.
Mother Xie was taken aback, glanced at Mu Fulan, coughed and slowed down.
"It's been a while since you came to my Xie family. You must know some things. When my son was young, it was not easy for me to thank my family. I was appreciated by the Qi family, and I don't think I thanked the family. The eldest daughter was promised to my son. Later, Qi’s family daughter unfortunately passed away. Although the marriage contract is gone, but these years, my son has been wandering outside, and there have been many difficulties. Thanks to the care of the Qi family, I can be today. Although you are married now Come here, but my son and Feng’er have always been in love with each other, and Feng’er knows her identity and is willing to be a child. I mean, when my son returns home, I will handle this matter…”
Fulan looked at Xie's mother's open and closed mouth, peeped at her eyes, and listened to her seemingly cautious, but actually righteous tone, and gradually became fascinated.
Yeah, how could she not know?
Not long after she got married, she had pieced together many things about her Xie family Langjun in the blank years before marrying her from the seemingly unintentional daily nagging of Xie's mother.
Xie's mother's husband was Yicheng at that time. That year, because he offended a passing official, he was severely beaten, and he vomited blood and died after returning home. Her dreaded son was only a 14-year-old boy. After catching up with the officials who had left, after killing dozens of people in the group, she entrusted her mother to the Qi family, and left Xie County on her own. Kou.
At this moment, the memory of the past life, which Ben never wanted to look back, suddenly hit her again.
She remembered clearly that in the current period after she married into the Xie family for more than half a year, not long after her husband returned home, after the consummation, Xiang hadn't had time to transform from a young girl to a woman. She came back to her senses in joy and mentioned the matter of Qi's daughter.
Even before the marriage, she had secretly hoped more than once that she and the Xie Jialang she was going to marry would be like their parents in the future.
But the moment he spoke, she still suppressed her disappointment, forced a smile, and agreed.
How naive she was at that time.
He would even think that Baizhanggang can be turned into a soft finger, and that a wife and a concubine can share a husband.
Later, she finally found out.
In Xie Changgeng's eyes, there are only his imperial plans and hegemony.
The princess of the Changsha King is just a stepping stone for him. It's gone, it's gone.
This Qi family's Lingfeng may be his good match.
Stupid, just myself, originally, if I die, I will die, and it is not a pity to die.
It's just, when the handsome boy in the dream, in white clothes dripping blood, in the dark palace, in front of the spirit of the dead mother who has been guarding for many years, kills himself with the sword of the father who gave his other half of the bone and blood. Mom, is this right?" When the question rang in her ears again, under Fulan's chest, above her heart, there seemed to be a blunt knife, cutting her again and again, her skin ripped apart. , dripping with blood.
The corners of her eyes were faintly flushed, and her nails were deeply embedded in the palm of her hand.
"You see. I have nothing to say."
Her expression was even colder than Bingxue, she said lightly.
Xie Muyuan also expected that she would not dare to object. It's just that I finally got a happy answer, which is also satisfying. Glancing at a few boxes in the house, he suppressed his dissatisfaction and said, "Let's go early and come back early! My son will win the battle and go home soon."
