Chapter 672

"...." seeing that he turned and wanted to leave, the Lord of Qiyun County shook his head unbelievably. Why can my father be so cruel!

Just because she wasn't born!

But is this what she can choose?!

"Why!" she stood up with her palms propped up, red eyes nailed to the back of emperor Zhaozhen, and asked in a trembling voice: "I can't choose my origin. You've kept it from me for so many years, and it's not my choice to know the truth! Can I only be led away by you like a puppet shadow and accept everything you impose on me!"

Emperor Zhaozhen heard the words, but he didn't look back.

"No one can choose his own origin, but doing evil is your own choice. Everything at present is exactly the result of your choice - I also admit that the decision between you and your mother was influenced by you. At that time, you were not born, and I didn't think about it well. Therefore, I should bear the second half of your fault. I will send you back to Mizhou safely now, and then There will be no more debt between you and me. "

The head of Qiyun County cried and gnashed his teeth and said, "so I also want to thank my father for his mercy and reward me as the head of the county, right? My father punished me, but announced my life experience to the public... I have been Xie sang for 15 years. No one asked me whether I would like it or not. Now my father said to take it back. Have you ever considered me for half!"

"Taking back your identity is to make you fear and restrain yourself. You can't do evil deeds by thanking your family's power! In the future, when you return to Mizhou, the people around you are the foundation for you to settle down and live. You can go on only by treating them well. I hope you can keep this truth in mind."

"I don't want to listen to this! I don't want to go back to Mizhou!" the Lord of Qiyun County slammed the scissors against his neck. "If my father won't let me stay, I'd rather die!"

Emperor Zhaozhen closed his eyes, but he still didn't look back.

"Since you and I don't owe each other, your life will only be yours from now on. As for how to use this life, it's up to you to decide whether to abandon it or stay it."

When he finished, he strode away.

Looking at the left figure, the head of Qiyun County cried, "the daughter will die for you now!"

However, in the sight, the tall figure did not stop for a moment.

She held the scissors tightly and was about to stab into her neck. However, the sharp tip of the knife just touched the skin and flesh, and the moment of pain hit, she didn't have the courage to stab again.

Many things are not so easy to do.

The Lord of Qiyun County cried and fell off the scissors heavily, and the man also fell to the ground.

"Just for a Xu family and a Xu Mingyi... You will abandon me!"

If it wasn't Xu Mingyi who moved her this time, could my father really be so cruel!

Listening to the girl's sad cry, a maid stepped forward and bent to help people up.

"Get out! Get out of the palace!"

The Lord of Qiyun county raised his hand and threw people away. He scolded angrily, "get out of this palace!"

The maid answered, stepped back two steps, lowered her eyes and sneered silently.

It seems that the county Lord didn't listen to your Majesty's advice at all.

But really, I don't know how to accumulate blessings for myself

A man who is no longer surnamed Xie, has nothing to do with his majesty, has made a mistake and offended the Dongyang palace. Do you really think he can be as capricious and domineering as before, and others can only bear it?

The maid withdrew from the inner hall and looked at the eunuch limping slowly to one side.

Then they went together to the eunuch in charge who was arranging a trip to Michigan.

In the next few days, there was not a moment of peace in the Yucui Palace - the head of Qiyun County either hanged himself, went on a hunger strike, refused to enter the tea, or tried to break out, making a lot of noise.

Rao is so, but the gate of Yucui palace is always closed.

Until three days later, the Lord of Qiyun county was sent into the carriage to Mizhou by two strong mammies.

She was accompanied by Shen. In contrast, her carriage was much quieter. There was almost no sound except the whispering voice from time to time.

More than ten days on the road, the leader of Qiyun County seemed to have no strength, and seemed to see the reality slowly, and finally stopped trying to escape.

At dawn on this day, after a night's rest, the party continued to go north.

After being helped into the carriage, the Lord of Qiyun County sat there with his eyes closed against the car wall. His face, which was sharp and angular because of his sharp weight loss, was full of yin and Li. There were no more bright colors for a girl of this age.

At noon, a group of more than ten people stopped to have a rest.

The two tall and strong mammies had already been bent in the carriage. As soon as they stopped, they went down first and complained: "It's been more than ten days, and I've only walked half the way. My whole body is shaking to pieces!... and I'm getting worse and worse as I go north. I couldn't even buy a piece of meat cake when I passed the market yesterday! The wind blows on my face like a knife... I really don't know where a chicken doesn't lay eggs when I get to Mizhou!"

"All right, speak more carefully..."

"What are you afraid of? It's thousands of miles away from the capital at this time! No one is allowed to talk about such hard work?"

Then he looked back at the direction of the carriage and felt more and more depressed and irritable.

If a sensible person in the stall is OK, it's just that he is a tossing master. He doesn't know anything about himself and is still the princess of the Xie family!

When she arrived in Michigan, she suffered!

After drinking water and eating dry food outside the car, the two women wanted to spend more time, and ran to the woods not far away for convenience.

In the car, an internal supervisor half knelt there and was delivering a cup of tea to the head of Qiyun County: "county head, you haven't had water for most of the day."

When the Lord of Qiyun County opened his eyes, the Mizhou woman was born with deep facial features. At this time, the eyes became more concave due to weight loss, and a pair of eyes were covered with red blood. When he looked straight, he felt a sense of Yin compassion.

The inner supervisor lowered his head again and handed the tea lamp closer: "county Lord, please use tea."

The Lord of Qiyun county took the tea with her lips straight. She didn't want to eat water at all, but her body instinct was here. She didn't want to die.

However, the next moment, the tea was slammed on the inner prison by her.

"I don't like hot tea. Don't you have long ears!"

It's not good to send someone to serve her, but find a lame waste!

The internal prison didn't avoid the tea. He let the tea soak his clothes. He poured another one expressionless and sent it to the main face of Qiyun county.

Looking at this expressionless face and the steaming hot tea, the Lord of Qiyun county was angry. When he was about to attack, he saw the internal prison slowly straighten up, close to her, and then suddenly lean over and put the tea against her mouth!

The tea was so hot that she reached out to push it away, but her hands were firmly held by the maid on one side.

"You... Uh...!"

The internal supervisor held her jaw in one hand and poured the tea into her mouth in the other hand. His enlarged face was full of hate because he was too close: "the county Lord nearly killed the slave because of a warm and moderate tea. The slave thought how to let the county Lord taste what is the real hot tea..."

The Lord of Qiyun County stared at the face - the eunuch who had been scolded by her staff before?

He's not dead!

But how could she appear here and go to Mizhou with her?!

The hot tea was still pouring. She swallowed passively and struggled.

Half a cup of tea was filled, and the maid picked up the teapot on one side.

She choked so hard that she couldn't breathe. She only heard the maid say word by word in her ear: "I wonder if the county Lord still remembers the maid who was killed by your staff? That's the maidservant's own sister... The county Lord will take whoever life he wants. Naturally, he won't pay attention to our humble maidservants... But the maidservants really care about you. This time, we two specially asked the head eunuch to show our loyalty to the county Lord, so we can follow the county The Lord returned to Mizhou together... "

"I didn't want to send the county Lord away so early, but I saw that the county Lord was really restless all the way. I talked about fighting and killing all day. I don't know what happened when I arrived in Mizhou... In order to protect my life, I had to send the county Lord on the road early!"

What's the meaning of this?

Want to kill her!

Or... The tea is poisonous?!

The Lord of Qiyun county was shocked, but it was useless to fight.

"This arsenic was bought by a shopkeeper in the market town yesterday. It's really not a good thing. I expect to suffer a lot if I eat it. Although I wronged the county Lord, I can ask the county Lord to have a good taste of life rather than death..."

Arsenic?!

The Lord of Qiyun County didn't know whether the burning pain was caused by the hot tea or something else. Her eyes were wide and her pupils were constricted. In addition to anger, she was more flustered and frightened.

The teapot was removed by the maid. She wanted to say something with her face full of tea, but her mouth and nose were covered by the eunuch with a pillow.

How dare

How dare they!

The maid seemed to have guessed her idea and said with a sneer: "there are more than ten people in this line. Who hasn't been angry by the county Lord? The county Lord wouldn't think that someone would complain for you?"

"Besides, the county leader has made many attempts to die. Who knows how you died..."

“……”

The Lord of Qiyun County couldn't hear the rest.

Her struggling movement gradually weakened. As soon as the pillow was removed, she tried to shout, but blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

There seemed to be a fire burning in her heart, which made it difficult for her to make a complete sound.

"Plop!"

She struggled to fall into the car and threw herself on the tea table.

The maid and the warden roughly erased the trace——

"No... come on, the county leader has taken poison! Come on!"

Hearing the sound, the crowd quickly gathered around.

It is impossible to have antidotes in your luggage, and it is unclear what poison you took.

I had to drive forward. I barely came to a town before dark and found a doctor.

However, the poison was too heavy and delayed for a long time. The doctor shook his head.

The poison of arsenic often doesn't kill people immediately. Within 12 hours of the poison, when seven holes bleed, there are still perceptual people everywhere.

The Lord of Qiyun County really stopped breathing at the beginning of the next day.

In the inn, Mammy, the former head of Yukun palace, coldly took a cloak with her fingers and covered the girl's terrible face.

She went back to the next room and said to the man sitting in front of the dressing table, "madam, the county Lord is gone..."

"She's dead?" when Shen combed his hair, he smiled: "dead. Well, if she's dead, the Lord won't dislike me because of her! Without this cheap seed, I can deserve the Lord!"

Then he suddenly stood up and said, "let's go back to the king now!"

"Madam..."

"No... no, No." the wooden comb in Shen's hand fell and suddenly touched his lower abdomen: "without this child, the Lord will not look at me... No!"

"She can't die! She can't die yet!"

"That's my Sonny, my Sonny..."

Shen, who was barefoot and covered with hair, looked frightened and immediately wanted to run outside the room.

It was cold in the north in late autumn. She was barefoot on the cold floor tiles. In a trance, she only felt that she had returned to the snowy night fifteen years ago.

She has to keep running, keep running

The Lord is right ahead. As long as she keeps running, she can see the Lord!

……

It was half a month later that the news of the death of the Lord of Qiyun County returned to the capital.

Xu Mingyi was slightly surprised when he learned about it.

But it was expected, but I didn't expect it to come so fast that even Mizhou couldn't arrive, and people disappeared on the way.

It is not difficult to guess what will happen to a person who is full of arrogance and hostility but has no real means, if he does not change his temperament and do things without the protection of power——

Birth cannot be chosen, but it is not only birth that affects fate, but also words and deeds.

Between words and deeds, cause and effect can be determined.

As for the punishment previously imposed by her Majesty on the Lord of Yun County, it was a decision after consultation with her grandfather. On the one hand, according to the Daqing law, those who attempt to injure others will not commit crimes until they die, but will at most be exiled after being punished with a staff.

Second, the other party has also been a father and daughter with the emperor for 15 years. Regardless of whether they have feelings or not, they also need to worry about the views of courtiers and the people - when the emperor first ascended the throne, there was a precedent of abolishing emperors, killing and cruelty, regardless of family affection. Previously, if there was no room for punishment for Shen and Qiyun county leaders, driven by the use of other people, The new emperor is afraid to gain a reputation of abandoning immediately after use and being mean and unsympathetic.

The reputation of a king of a country is not only a person's reputation, but also related to the stability of the people and the country.

Therefore, the girl had found a fairly stable way of life under the current situation, but she couldn't grasp it after all.

She didn't know what happened to the other party, but she couldn't escape the words of words and deeds.

Xu Mingyi touched Tianmu's bald head and stopped thinking about it.

"Girl, girl!"

Ah Kui came back quickly from the outside. After saluting, he came up to her ear and said, "the old man is going to take the second master to Dingnan palace!"

Xu Mingyi's eyes lit up and got up immediately.

"Come on, help me change -"

You can't miss anything in such an important bustle!

She hurriedly changed her clothes and combed her hair. As soon as she was ready, Xu Ming found it.

The boy sent her a message.

Besides reporting the news, he also implicitly said that if she really wanted to go with her and was afraid of being too conspicuous, he could go with her reluctantly - although he was not the kind of person who liked to join the fun!

Xu Mingyi accepted his reluctant proposal.

Therefore, the two brothers and sisters took Tianmu and followed their grandfather and second uncle to Dingnan palace.

Xu Mingshi and Wu ran, who also "didn't like to join the fun", got together to ponder over the matter.

Xu Mingyi went to the house of Xu, wife of the son of God.

From time to time, Xu asked people to inquire in the study... Oh, no, send tea and snacks.

Once the maidservant turned back, Xu would quickly ask about the war ahead——

"How's it going?"

"Didn't you quarrel?"

"Did the son of God talk too much and delay things?"

Xu Mingyi is also a little nervous - after all, although his second uncle is old, he has been discussed for the first time.

However, being old also has the advantage of being old. There is more right to speak in person. At this time, the second uncle and aunt Wu are also present. In front of them, I think the two old men should also be a little restrained.

In contrast, Tianmu's attitude is irrelevant. At this time, he is secretly walking to Tianjiao and Tianfu, who are eating, and stretching his head to gather in the couple's rice bowl, a picture of "give me a taste".

The result was almost scratched.

Therefore, there was a scene that big birds were chased and killed by two cats, and birds and cats flew around.

In a scuffle, a maid came back quickly and brought back the latest military newspaper——

"It should be agreed. The two princes have come out!"

"Say you want to stay for dinner!"

Xu Shi and Xu Mingyi were overjoyed when they heard the speech.

This must be done!

Success is inevitable.

In fact, today's talks between the two families are not about whether to get married. Getting married has long been a certainty. The key lies in how to get married——

After all, Wu Jingying has been a queen in the palace, and her identity is always different from others.

The Wu family has always attached importance to the word "decency". How to grasp the discretion needs to be carefully discussed and weighed.

At first, King Dingnan suggested that they should change their identity and live in seclusion without paying attention to many discussions.

After much deliberation, the king of Dongyang said that if he wants to get married, he should get married openly!

He married his daughter-in-law in the Xu family. He had three books and six rites, which were witnessed by all people. He gave a big banquet. None of them could be less!

As for which old man's idea was finally adopted, the answer is obvious——

Three days later, the governor of the Ming Dynasty proposed in the early dynasty that a new policy of tolerance and leniency should be implemented at the beginning of the country, such as encouraging women to remarry.

Emperor Zhaozhen greatly approved of this and said on the spot that if any of Aiqing's family met the conditions, he could take the lead to set an example;

If there are no conditions, you can also try to create conditions - is your daughter unhappy in her husband's house? Take it back and remarry!

For a time, officials with daughters at home showed a look of thinking, and those who married each other's daughter-in-law could not help but be in danger. They were afraid that if they were unlucky, they would be used by their in laws for political achievements.

What everyone did not expect was that the two families would be the first to set an example——

Dongyang king personally came to propose marriage to the second son of the family to marry the second daughter of Dingnan king!

Many people didn't even react immediately at first. There is a second master Xu Yun in the Xu family who hasn't married yet. It's well known, but... The second daughter of Dingnan king?

Which one is this?

Didn't you marry?

Why don't you remember?

When I stroked it carefully, I suddenly -- oh! Good guy, it's the second daughter who was a queen!
