chapter 2
The princess left Dongting, followed the Shu road and traveled across mountains and rivers to Kuizhou to marry the Xie family. The Xie family man left her and left home in a hurry on the wedding night. He didn't have to mention the love. But in the past six months, Xie's mother's contempt and the prince's pursuit, and who did not see and feel the love in his heart?
Unexpectedly, when I woke up early in the morning, the princess seemed to have changed and said she wanted to go back to Dongting. She was so happy that she fell from the sky.
Some of the maids followed into the house to pack up their things, and some immediately ran out to call the supervisor to summon Qi Dingfu, and arranged the carriages and horses to get on the road. They were all very busy.
Unlike the happy maids, although Mu's mother felt deeply wronged by the princess and was a little dissatisfied with the Xie family, the princess' decision was too sudden and seemed a bit abnormal.
She remembered that when Ms. Wang opened the door and showed up, her eyes that could not cover the tears, and she felt more and more uneasy. When she entered the house, she saw Ms. Wang doing it herself, folding a few close-fitting clothes. She hesitated, followed her and asked softly: "Honor Master has cried in the morning? Can you tell the nanny why she suddenly wanted to go back to Dongting?"
Fulan turned her face and met Mu's mother's concerned eyes staring at her, and a feeling of sadness surged in her heart.
It was a kind of sad feeling with infinite regret but mixed with infinite gratitude.
Her parents were intimate and close relationships. Although her father was the king of Changsha, she had only her mother as a queen throughout her life. After her mother died of illness when she was ten years old, the old injuries left by her father's early fighting also relapsed, and her health became worse and worse. When she was thirteen years old, she decided to marry her for her and followed her mother shortly after she left.
Although her parents are no longer here, she has lost the dreamlike illusion, but she truly feels that everything should be the love of the previous life that has actually happened - it is the kind of heart-wrenching pain that made her cry so hard that she couldn't help herself when she woke up this morning.
But she is still lucky.
She became her sixteen-year-old self.
In this life that has been back, she and her love from her previous life will be separated from the heavens and will never see each other again, but she has the opportunity to save her brother, she has a kind sister-in-law, and her mother Mu treats her like this and uses her life to protect her family.
She tried her best to force the enthusiasm in her eyes and said, "I'm fine, I just had a nightmare last night. Mom, don't worry."
"Mom Mu, I want to go back to Dongting, my intentions have been decided."
After pausing, she said again.
The princess has always been gentle and obedient since she was a child.
It was the first time that Mu's mother saw her decide something in such a tone. She had absolutely no room for discussion with others.
Although she was still confused, she stopped asking questions and said softly: "Okay. Master Weng wants to go back to Dongting, so let's go back."
Mu Fulan came to the table, took a waxed letter he wrote this morning and handed it over.
"Mom Mu, please send someone who is capable and you must deliver this letter to my sister-in-law as quickly as possible! I have important things and I need to let my sister-in-law know as soon as possible. We have a lot of people, and no matter how fast the road is, I am afraid there will be some delays."
"This letter is extremely important. True!"
She emphasized again in a heavy tone.
Mother Mu became more and more puzzled, but when she saw her solemn expression, she nodded, answered the letter, and turned around and hurried out.
Fulan watched Mu's mother's back leave and slowly exhaled.
"Master Weng, when you come back this time, the weather must have been cold. Should you bring this fox fur or the cloak? Or both?"
Danzhu pointed to a few winter clothes and asked her about her preferences.
Fulan turned around and said, "Pack up all the books I brought when I came, including medical books, and the pair of Zhou Kui patterned jars on the shelf. Take your clothes freely, and you can change them on the way back."
Danzhu was stunned.
When the princess married here, in addition to her generous dowry, she also brought many of her books, including medical books.
The pair of Zhou Kui's patterned jars were the beloved thing of the late Changsha King. The Changsha King loved his sister and added it to the dowry to make a thought for his sister.
Danzhu thought the princess was just going back to live. For some reason, she abandoned her clothes and had to clean up these heavy objects that were inconvenient to carry?
"Master?"
She was a little confused.
"Just as I told you to clean up."
Fulan smiled at her.
The maid had no choice but to nod and direct the people to continue packing up their things.
"Old lady, please wait! Be careful of the steps!"
Suddenly, a voice of speaking came from the door.
Fulan turned his head.
Xie's mother hurried over from the direction of the main hall without Qiu Ju's support. She stepped over the steps a few steps and stopped at the door of the east wing house, without entering. She stood outside the threshold and glanced at the open boxes on the ground in the room, and her face darkened.
"Mu, what do you mean? Qiuju just said to me, I don't believe it yet! Are you really going to go back to your parents' home?"
When Dan Zhuzhu Yu and others saw Xie’s mother coming, they stopped what they were busy with and looked at Fulan.
Fulan looked at Xie’s mother, greeted the door, and said respectfully: “Mom-in-law comes in and sits. Because she has a hurry and has a lot of things to pack, she didn’t go over to tell you just now, so she doesn’t blame her.”
Xie's mother frowned and said angrily: "Although my son left on the night of marriage, it was a difficult time to disobey the emperor's order, and it was not something he didn't want to stay! You marry into my family, and it's my Xie family. I'm not going to let you go back to your parents' home, but how long has it been, you're going back?"
Fulan was silent and did not answer.
Xie's mother paused.
"I am a lonely old woman and I have no daughter-in-law to serve you. I admit that I am a blessing. But my son wants to come back soon. When he comes back, you are not here. What kind of morality is it?"
Fulan said: "It's my fault, mother-in-law calm down."
Just this sentence, there is nothing else to say.
The attitude is still respectful, but the meaning is very obvious.
That's this trip to my parents' home, and I have to go back.
The Mu girl has been in the school for more than half a year and is extremely respectful in front of her. Xie's mother still took such a soft nail and became more and more annoyed. However, after all, she was still a little afraid of her identity and did not dare to go too far. She barely suppressed her anger and hummed.
"Mu, I know you are the princess and the master of the past. I look down on my Xie family. I am an old woman in the countryside and I am not worthy of being your mother-in-law. You must go back to your parents' home, but I dare not let you leave. But before you leave, there is something I must tell you to know so that you won't complain."
Why can't Mu Fulan guess what she wants to say?
"Does the mother-in-law want to bring the daughter of Qi into the door?"
Her tone was calm.
Xie's mother was stunned, glanced at Mu Fulan, coughed, and slowed down her tone.
"You have been here for a while, and you must know some things. When my son was young, the situation in my Xie family was a bit difficult. The master of the Qi family appreciated my son, but he didn't bother me, and promised his eldest daughter to my son. Later, the Qi family's eldest daughter died unfortunately. Although the engagement was gone, my son has been out for many years and has many difficulties. Thanks to the Qi family's care, I can achieve today. Although you have married, my son and Feng'er have always been in love with each other. Feng'er knows his identity and is willing to be young. I mean, when my son comes home, I will get this matter done..."
Fulan looked at Xie's mother's mouth, opened and closed, and looked at her eyes. She gradually became enlightened when she heard her tone that seemed cautious but in fact she was justified.
Yes, how could she not know?
Not long after she got married, she had already pieced together many things from the blank years before her husband married her from Xie's mother's seemingly unintentional daily nagging.
Xie’s mother’s husband was the postmaster at that time. That year, she was beaten because she offended an official passing by and vomited blood after returning home. Her son, who had been afraid since childhood, was only a fourteen-year-old boy. She caught up with the officials who had left, killed dozens of people, and then entrusted her mother to the Qi family, left Xie County herself, and became a bandit.
The memories of my previous life that I never want to look back on again suddenly came towards her again at this moment.
She remembered clearly that during the current period of time after she married into the Xie family, her husband soon returned home. After completing the family, she mentioned the story of the Qi girl before she could recover from the shyness and joy of transforming from a girl into a woman.
Even before marriage, I had secretly hoped that she and Xie Jialang, whom she was going to marry, would be like her parents in the future, and would have a deep love, living in the same bed and living in the same cave, and living in the same bed.
But the moment he spoke, she still suppressed her heart and felt disappointed, forced a smile and agreed.
How innocent she was at that time.
He actually thought that a hundred feet of steel could be transformed into soft fingers, and that a wife and concubine could share the same husband.
Later, she finally found out.
In Xie Changgeng's eyes, only his imperial map and hegemony.
The princess of the King of Changsha is just a stepping stone for him. Without it, it will be gone.
This Lingfeng from the Qi family may be his good match.
The stupid one is just myself. Originally, I will die if I die, and I am not willing to be jealous of death.
However, when the handsome young man in his dream, blood-clothed in white, was in the dark palace, in front of the spirit of the dead mother who had been guarding for many years, he committed suicide by slashing his neck with the sword given to his other half of his blood. Before his death, the question "My mother, isn't it right?" sounded in his ears again, under Fulan's chest and above his heart, it seemed like a dull knife was cutting her again and again, with her skin blooming and flesh pouring, and blood was pouring.
The corners of her eyes were faintly red, and her nails were deeply embedded in her palms.
"You can do it. I'm fine."
But her expression was even colder than Bingxue, and she said lightly.
Xie's mother was sure that she did not dare to object. But she finally got a happy agreement and was satisfied. She glanced at the boxes in the room, suppressed her dissatisfaction and said, "Go and go early and come back soon! My son will definitely win the battle and go home."
