Princess Hong Hua! I actually look like her?
This was an extremely famous woman. Who in the Great Zhou didn't know of Princess Hong Hua? In the past, when Xuelang and I were living in the capital, we had witnessed the marriage procession of the direct daughter of Prince Shun, which was bustling with activity. There were countless female ceremonies officials, and the dowry that followed the bridal sedan from the palace to the courtyard in the outskirts of the capital was truly amazing.
Princess Honghua was the niece of the previous Empress, and after the Qin Emperor gave birth to His Highness King Qi, three years had passed without incident, and the late Empress was extremely fond of girls, so she raised her brother's second daughter into the palace. When the little girl was four years old, Empress Qin gave birth to a child of a dragon and phoenix, but the little prince died without a full moon, and the little princess also suffered many illnesses and cried all day and all night, some people saying that Miss Qin's fate was too harsh, that even if she killed the little prince, the princess wouldn't be able to keep her. The empress dearly loved her niece, but there was nothing she could do for her son, the son of the empress, so she was bestowed with the honor of being a five-year-old princess of the Imperial Protector's Temple. When the empress was fourteen years old, she was already a slim and elegant young lady, and the empress missed her niece very much, and the princess was strong as well. She received the same treatment as the princess, but within two or three years, the princess' body was ruined in the middle of autumn.
On the surface, it seemed as if Princess Hong Hua had received the Empress's favor as the daughter of an official. Although she seemed to be extremely pampered, to me, it was truly an ill-fated fate. Back then, the reason Empress Qin had brought Princess Honghua into the palace was simply to pamper her. There were even rumors that the empress wanted to personally educate Miss Qin so that she could give her permission to Prince Qi and become a beautiful couple in the future. Later on, the empress gave birth to her own daughter, and Miss Qin had a reputation that was too hard to bear, so the empress conferred the title of princess on Miss Qin, carelessly throwing her into the temple. When the nation was in danger and could not bear to part with her daughter, she thought of her poor niece, who had accepted her name and sent her to a distant barbarian to be a princess. This was the imperial family, how cruel was it? They wanted to tear apart the flesh and blood alive, and even wanted to make you kneel in gratitude for your virtue.
"Mother! Mother! " Father's anxious voice echoes in my ears, and only then do I come back to my senses. She turned her head to see her grandma supporting her body with her hands on the edge of the bed. Her face was sallow and beads of sweat dripped down from her forehead onto her skin.
"Quick!" Put Grandmother on the bed! " I shouted at my father, who turned to look at me with a look of surprise in his eyes. He was probably used to my cowardice, which was something he hadn't expected.
I pulled the covers off my body, ignored my shoes, and stepped barefoot on the stone floor. The heat from my body seemed to have been sucked from the soles of my feet. In a fluster, I ran to the cabinet and whipped at it, ripping off a lot of things with a "hualala" sound. When I saw the abnormal blush on Grandmother's face, my heart sank. My hands trembled as I stuffed the medicine into Grandmother's mouth. Then, I took a teacup from the side and poured a cup of water into Grandmother's mouth. I seemed to have lost all my strength as I sat down on the chair Grandmother had just sat on.
Father looked at me with a meaningful look in his eyes. I had no more strength left in me, so I smiled wryly in my heart. After concealing myself for so long, it was all exposed.
"Watch your grandmother." "Father adjusted the hem of his robe. Just now, he had been kneeling for a long time, causing the clothes in front of his knees to be slightly wrinkled." I'll go find a doctor. "
"Grandmother will wake up and find you." I don't even want to open my eyes, I said, leaning back in my chair.
My father ignored me, turned, and pushed the door open. Not long later, Hong Yu and Lu Ping came in. Seeing my grandmother, who was originally sitting on the chair, lying on the bed, and me, who was originally lying on the bed resting, sitting on the chair in my single attire, I was startled.
Hong Yu hurriedly brought the lamp to see her grandmother. Seeing that her complexion had gradually recovered, her breathing gradually calmed down as well. Only then did she feel relieved. When Lu Ping touched my body, she frowned and was about to say something. I shook my head and Lu Ping bit her lips. In the end, she didn't say anything and just carried me to the back of the screen to help me put on my clothes.
"Where's Yuanyuan?" It was Grandmother's voice, very weak.
"Miss went to hide behind the screen, Master went to get a doctor." Red Jade replied.
"I'm fine."
"It's better to take a look."
"Go and call your master back. I still have something to ask him." Grandmother's voice had become much calmer.
"Old lady …" Red Jade's voice was filled with complaints and worry.
Not long later, Hong Yu walked into the screen and together with Lu Ping, I was helped back to my chair.
"Good boy." Grandmother was lying in bed, her face still pale. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at me. "Grandmother will make the decision just by breathing."
"I don't want it!" I suddenly felt very sad. Why would I give up the concern I had always wanted to make my grandmother's life more peaceful? Tears welled up in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall. "I just want my grandmother to be fine," she said. I reached for Grandmother's hand and a tear fell onto it, disappearing along the creases in her hand.
