It seems that only in this way can one convey what one wants in his heart to God.

Behind him, the female official hurried in with the imperial physician.

After all, my aunt couldn't get through that level and didn't want Fulan to see her dying. Later, someone forced her to take away the crying Fulan.

At dawn, Fulan heard from the palace maid that her queen aunt had left, leaving very peacefully, with a look of life, as if she had fallen asleep.

It has been ten years in a flash.

Perhaps, it's far more than ten years.

So many years have passed.

She is no longer the little girl who sang to my aunt back then.

But that night, every word and every word that my aunt said to her, Fulan still remembers it vividly.

However, my aunt's good wishes on her deathbed were finally lost.

People at that time said that every generation of the Mu daughter of Changsha must have a brilliant appearance.

Unparalleled beauty, with a miserable fate, and a good ending will not be possible.

This may be the fate of the Mu girl.

...

Turning from Dongting into the Yangtze River, along the river, traveling west along the river, passing Jiangling, Xiazhou, returning to the state, passing through Badong, passing through Wushan, next to the difficult Shu road is Kuizhou, and there is an ancient county under the prefecture. It is said that the county annals can be traced back to the beginning of the founding of this dynasty. A group of people from the previous dynasty, who moved here to avoid disaster, gradually reborn and gathered. Today, the county still has many families with the surname Xie, named Xie County.

The morning light gradually illuminates the scene in the house through an old window covered with a layer of window paper.

In this main hall in the Xie family's ancestral home, on this day, Xie's mother, Shen, sat cross-legged by the bed as she used to wait for her wife Mu Fulan to come and greet her good morning, then put on her shoes and comb her hair, and the new day began.

Mu is the queen of the King of Changsha who passed away three years ago and the sister of the King of Changsha.

It is necessary to marry into a husband's family regardless of his original status, and to greet him sooner or later. This is a matter of human filial piety to his mother-in-law.

But every day, wearing shoes and combing the hair for my mother-in-law, as the Mu girl, is inevitably suspicious of being condescending.

So at the beginning, when the new wife took the initiative to serve her to do these things, Shen unexpectedly did not expect it and was a little restrained.

Now, the Mu girl has been in the family for more than half a year. She is gentle and Xianshu, respectful and considerate to herself, and has no sense of being a princess all over her body. Xie's mother has gradually become accustomed to it, even taking it for granted from the beginning.

Shen was used to getting up early, and his new wife followed her. He got up every day before dawn. At the hour of Mao, he must have been waiting outside the main hall. Seeing that today was already a little past, the Mu girl appeared. In the east wing, the mother Mu who came to serve her with her new wife, only sent a girl to say that the wife got up a little late this morning, and first complained to the old lady, and then came to greet her later. She felt uncomfortable and her eyebrows gradually frowned.

The maid Qiu Ju, who came to serve her from Qi's house a few years ago, was a bit beautiful. In order to avoid the name of the mistress, she changed to Qiu Ju. She looked at her words and said, "Old lady, it's not that I am too polite. Although my wife was married to Changsha, it's not like this now. Three years ago, when she got married, Changsha was still good. But since the old King of Changsha was gone, Changsha was getting worse every year. Our master has risen in recent years. Just say that when she married her, she was already named the governor of Hexi by the court. I heard that even Empress Liu, who is now, would have smiled when she saw our master and said a few good words to win over it. When the master defeated the rebellion this time, he would definitely be even more indispensable."

Xie's mother smiled.

"Old Madam, you treat your wife as your own. I feel sorry for her that it is not easy for her to marry far away, and she is even more kinky than her own daughter. She has been married here for a few days, but the old lady is gone in her eyes. Let the old lady have a good meal!"

The tip of her tongue pressed against her palate, and she slapped it dexterously, making a crisp "tsk" sound.

"I only know that it is natural for my daughter-in-law to serve my mother-in-law, or the first time I see you relying on your mother-in-law's family, I want your mother-in-law to show your face."

The smile on Shen's face disappeared, her face became a little unhappy, and she said, "Go over there and see what's wrong? The sun is getting dark, can she not get up yet?"

The autumn chrysanthemums responded crisply, and the lotus steps were flying through the corridor and soon arrived at the east wing.

The ancestors of the Xie family were direct descendants of the Xie family who moved here in the previous dynasty. When Emperor Gaozu was still a local tyrant, it was no exaggeration to say that fertile land was tens of thousands of hectares, accounting for almost half of the land in Xie County. This ancestral home was once one of the most grand residences in the county. But later, the great-grandfather was addicted to gambling and the Xie family began to lose. By the time of Xie Changgeng's father, Xie's father had become the postmaster of the county and relied on his meager salary to support his family. After Xie Changgeng left home at the age of fourteen, the Xie family's ancestral home was even more deserted. It was not until a few years ago that the Xie family regained its momentum and Shen moved back, and the house was repaired. The east wing here was rebuilt when Xie Changgeng married the Mu girl at the beginning of the year.

Xie Changgeng married the daughter of the Mu family of Changsha in early spring.

More than half a year has passed, and it is now autumn. Although the double red letters on the doors and windows are still attached, they cannot withstand the wind and sun. The original bright red color has gradually faded and turned into a dismal and powerless color.

"Mom Mu, the old lady got up early in the morning. She waited for the rest and waited again. She didn't see her. Send me here to take a look. If the lady has a headache and fever, mom, you can tell me too. I'll go back and tell me, so don't ask the old lady to wait forever."

Qiuju stood at the corner of the corridor leading to the east wing and said to Mu's mother who was banging the door. Her tone sounded respectful, but in fact she was disrespectful.

What a person Mom Mu was once apart.

The princess traveled through mountains and rivers and fulfilled her promise to marry far away from the miserable land of Badong. On the night of her wedding, Xie Changgeng entered the bridal chamber and was summoned by a 100,000-year-old man from the court. He took off his wedding robe and hurried away from home overnight to quell the rebellion of the King of Jiangdu, but has not returned yet.

For more than half a year, I have watched the princess who were loved at home with her own eyes sooner or later serve Xie's mother, meticulously doing everything herself, without complaining about any grievance.

If Xie's mother was an intimate and considerate person, it would be fine, but she was a person with simple eyes. Seeing that the princess was respectful and gentle, she took advantage of her son's confidence and was proud of her face, and she felt at ease and was increasingly not taking the princess seriously.

Mu's mother knew that the princess had a heart and was firmly in charge of the Xie family's husband. She loved the house and was willing to suffer grievances. Although she was so angry, it was related to her relationship with the Xie family's husband and wife. Some things were hard to say, and she could only give some secrets in front of the princess. Seeing that she was not concerned about it, she could only bear it.

In the past six months, the princess has been getting up early every day, regardless of wind and rain. One day, she was waiting in front of the main house to open the door and go in to serve her.

Only one day today, the princess had not stood up for some reason. She was afraid that Xie's mother would wait, so she had sent someone to pass on the message.

He didn't even have enough time to urge him. Not only that, even this lowly slave from the Qi family dared to come here to speak like this.

If this were young, Mom Mu would probably slap her earlier.

The maids who were waiting at the door to serve the princess stood up all their faces were angry when they heard this.

The most charcoal-tongued dogwood was already unbearable and said coldly: "It was early in the morning, and I cursed my master. What is a mud pig, scabies, dog? Today I have seen it."

Qiuju choked and her face turned red. She was about to speak again to make her face look back, Mom Mu said, "It is our fault to ask the old lady to wait for a long time, but it is not a very rude thing to send someone to pass the message just now. It is important to know that even in the court, the emperor will allow his ministers to take leave inconveniently, let alone the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law's family?"

After she finished speaking, she turned her face and ordered another steady maid, Danzhu, to say, "Go, transfer my words to the old lady, and then avenge her. I think the old lady would not care about such trivial matters."

Danzhu agreed and turned around and left.

Qiu Juping was a little afraid of this mother Mu from the Changsha Palace. At this moment, she heard her words, staring at her with two eyes staring at her. She didn't dare to say anything else. She swallowed it, lowered her head, turned around and was about to go back when she heard a "creak" sound from the east wing. She raised her eyes and the door was opened. The Mu girl appeared at the door.

Her face was pale, her beautiful eyes were slightly red and swollen, but her expression was extremely calm.

They are clearly the same person, but for some reason, they look completely different from yesterday.

Her two gazes fell straight on Qiuju.

"You are just right. Go and tell your mother-in-law that I will leave and return home today. When I pack my luggage, I will go to my mother-in-law to say goodbye."

After saying that, he turned to Mu's mother who was shocked when she heard this and several maids outside the door.

"Check things as soon as possible, prepare the carriage and arrange personnel, and I will go on the road today, and I will go back to Dongting."

After she gave the order, she turned around and returned to the house.

Mother Mu woke up from a dream, hurriedly stepped and followed in.
