After hesitating for a moment, Madam Lian finally spoke out. "But how do I know that in the future, will you treat Sister Shu well?" In the end, she still let go.
It was just as Maid Du had said, Madam Lian was not scary at all, "Lin Shu is the first daughter of Abel, if I were to take her life, do you think she would be able to live till today in Tzu Ning Palace? Ever since ancient times, countless people have died because of Feng Han, and even if she died in the Tzu Ning Palace, no one would dare to say anything about it. On the contrary, you, who have always viewed Lin Shu as your lifeblood, would most likely be unable to recover from this setback, and after a year or two, you will also go to the underworld to see the Lord of the Underworld. "
"But I did not do that, regardless of whether it is your life or Lin Shu's life, I do not put them in my eyes, but what I care about is whether Abel is happy or not, although Abel does not like Lin Shu, but in the end, Lin Shu is his blood, if I kill Lin Shu, Abel will be the first one unhappy, so I will not do that."
"You can think about it, if I don't treat Lin Shu well in the future, I'm afraid that the Abel won't even agree to it … Furthermore, if Lin Shu was a son, I would definitely torment him. She's just a little girl, that's all, just wait four or five years until I find a suitable family, then take out a dowry and marry her out.
This was exactly what she had done in her previous life.
The Madam Lian nodded and said softly, "I hope that you can keep your word. If you want my life, I can just give it to you … I only have one request, can you come to the palace and take a look at Sister Shu before I die … "
Before she could finish her sentence, Princess Changze's loud voice interrupted her, "What, do you think you're qualified to negotiate with me now that things have come to this? With your shrewdness, once you enter the palace, Lin Shu would be able to see through you. At that time, she would think that she had harmed you, and her heart will not be at peace for the rest of her life. "
"That little girl of yours is still young, but she is actually quite intelligent! Tell me, you should end it early, don't cause so much trouble, the longer the matter drags on, the more serious Lin Shu's illness will become. Even though the palace head doctor is skilled in medicine, none of them are alive, how can they have the ability to revive the dead? "
Madam Lian laughed miserably but did not say a word.
Princess Changze wanted her life, and wished that he could not wait any longer. It was just that before she died, he could not meet her Sister Shu once, so how could she leave peacefully?
She had originally planned to watch her Sister Shu get married, but her Sister Shu had already become a little beauty. If she were to open her eyes a few years later and put on a wedding gown, she would definitely be beautiful to the extreme.
"Please rest assured Princess Changze, you will definitely hear the news of my death before today. Please do not make things difficult for Sister Shu out of the things that Princess Changze has said himself today, even if she is a little arrogant at some point in time, he is still a child after all …"
Princess Changze was not in the mood to chat with her, his words were interrupted once again, "Rest assured."
After saying so, she arrogantly turned around and walked away with quick steps. Her thoughts were gone, and even her footsteps had become a lot lighter.
When Princess Changze left, Peony and Hibiscus came in hurriedly, but they were stupefied when they entered. Madam Lian's face was filled with tears, the two of them had been by Madam Lian's side for ten years, even when the Old Master passed away, they had never been this sad.
Peony hurriedly handed over the handkerchief and whispered, "Madam, what's going on?"
Madam Lian wiped her tears randomly, then said: "In the future, you two must take good care of Sister Shu, don't let anyone bully her, it would be best if you send a letter to big brother, and have big brother send a group of people over from Yangzhou to protect Sister Shu …"
"Everything is fine, why are you saying these words?" However, he didn't dare to say these words out loud for fear that they would become true. "You forgot what I said to you before I left, and the lady said that you should be fine in the palace, and she should be fine in the palace. If the girl knew that you …" "You can't possibly be sad to say such words …"
Madam Lian's eyes started to feel sore again, "Sister Shu is already so sick, how can she still be alright? Do you know what Princess Changze came here to tell me just now? She said that she was so sick that she couldn't even speak, and since she was young, her body's bones were already pretty good. I'm afraid she's lying on her bed, not even able to drink a mouthful of hot tea. "
As she spoke, her tears fell again, "Ever since Sister Shu was born, she has used the best food and clothes she has. Now, how can they treat Sister Shu like this … Last night, I still dreamt that Sister Shu was lying on the bed. She was so skinny that she no longer had a human body.
"At that time … At that time, I was kneeling on the bedside, begging the Princess Changze to go and invite the imperial physician over, but the Princess Changze and Old Master were standing at the side smiling at me. I could only hug my Sister Shu and cry, wishing that I could help her suffer this illness … "
When Peony heard this, tears also fell from her eyes, "But in the end, we should still meet this lady. If this is Princess Changze's trick, then what should we do? If, if Miss doesn't see you again, what should I do? "
"I can't tell Sister Shu about the news from Princess Changze's visit today. She has been stubborn like a donkey ever since she was young, so she has been sleeping obediently in front of me recently. If she knew …" If I knew that Princess Changze forced me to death, how would I be able to live in peace with him? Why would the Princess Changze treat her well? " Madam Lian saw that the two servants in front of him had cried so much that she couldn't even cry anymore. Now that crying was useless, he should help her Sister Shu with everything she had, "When we get to Sister Shu, no matter how she asks, she always says that I died from an emergency, so don't say anything about it."
After thinking for a bit, she continued: "You two know too much, I'm afraid that the Grand Madam and Old Master cannot tolerate you, if you really cannot stay in the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion to take care of the Sister Shu, then go back to find Big Brother, he will definitely find you two a good marriage, you have served me for so many years, it's time to find a good home …"
Peony shook her head, crying, but no words came out.
"Don't cry, help me go to the Linglong Pavilion to take a seat. If you can't see the Sister Shu, it would be good if you could go to her courtyard." After saying that, Madam Lian was about to stand up, but she felt that her body was light as a feather, as though she couldn't even use all of her strength to stand up.
Madam Lian went to the Linglong Pavilion and sat there for most of the day. She touched this place and thought that this was the place where her Sister Shu would sit, look at that place, and thought that her Sister Shu would usually sit here and take a nap.
In the end, she held onto the half piece of embroidery her Sister Shu had made. When she thought that her Sister Shu had said that she would embroider her a screen with the word "Life" in the future, she couldn't help but start bawling.
She couldn't bear to part with him. It was with great difficulty that her Sister Shu got closer to her, so she was about to leave …
The sky had already completely darkened, yet Lin Shu, who was sitting in the side hall of the Tzu Ning Palace, didn't know anything. She could only sit below and watch the vaudeville team play, and there was even a slight smile on her face.
Not only did Empress Zhang and his beloved concubine come to eat dinner with their Tzu Ning Palace, even the First Princess, the Great First Princess and the Princess who were married in the capital came. As for the princes and dukes, they set up a few tables in the main hall.
Empress Dowager Wang's voice sounded from above, "... Counting the time, there is only the King Rui and Ning's family that are still missing. They haven't come back for a few years, this one still misses them. "
She thought that the King Rui was the real family. The King Rui was her brother, and had been doted on by her ever since she was young. As for missing her family, she had only said those words out of respect.
It was a pity that the late Empress passed away, and the late Emperor and the late Empress had a rather deep relationship. This last one had been empty for many years, and only after the late Emperor conferred the title of Crown Prince on the current Emperor, did the become the Queen.
When the late emperor was still alive, the Empress Dowager Wang had treated the First Princess Pingning nicely, but now that her son had succeeded her, they could only exchange some pleasantries during the New Year celebration.
Everyone knew, but no one dared to reveal it. The Empress Zhang even said with a smile: "Even though the King Rui is not in the capital, doesn't he have the Princess Changze accompanying him? Although this First Princess Pingning has not come back to the capital for many years, doesn't this mean that he still has a Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion Fourth Miss to accompany you? "
When she said this, everyone could not help but burst out into laughter. Even Empress Dowager Wang could not help but say, "Empress is indeed intelligent, fourth miss is the cousin of Ping Ning's first wife, you actually managed to think of such a relationship …"
In front of everyone, Empress Zhang was extremely filial, "You can't blame your concubine for being so talkative, didn't your concubine say that to make you happy?"
Everyone had long since seen a fiancée who didn't have a good relationship with her. Now that these two most respected women in the world were going to act, the others would only be able to support them.
Lin Shu was also laughing along with the others, but out of the corner of her eyes, he would occasionally glance at Princess Changze, who was seated above her.
When Princess Changze first came in, his entire body seemed to be filled with joy, but now, her expression became ugly little by little. If one looked carefully, they would see that the tip of her nose was already beading with beads of sweat.
