Chapter 144
Perhaps they were in the same boat, thinking that Yuan Zhao had to stay away from the capital and his parents again and again in order to save his life. Feng's eyes filled with tears, and she gradually lost control of her emotions. She held her in her arms as if she were her sixth son, and cried bitterly with regret:
"Rokuro, grandma's Rokuro..."
Yuan Zhao shed tears silently, letting her hug him and cry. When Feng's crying gradually subsided, he half-forced to help her return to the warm room and lie down on the couch.
"Er Niang, there is a saying in the scriptures that the wind will not end, the rain will not end, the heaven and the earth will not last forever, what about people?" Yuan Zhao comforted, "Everyone will die, but death does not perish. Sixth Brother is in this life
After a calamity, the soul is reborn in another world.
A place where there is no king above, no ministers below, and no affairs of the four seasons..."
Just like the so-called modern times she often dreamed about, she always believed that that magical world existed in the dark. Perhaps her father's spiritual practice was effective back then, and it was reported to her, allowing her to see the otherworldly world.
good.
Once people encounter something irreversible and find it unbearable, they will place their hope in the words of the gods. They will also pray to the gods to protect the deceased so that they can live a peaceful and peaceful life in another world.
Just like her parents in the dream, when she died in the dream, her parents either died of depression, or they believed in Buddhism to soothe their overwhelmed souls and seek peace for the rest of their lives.
I just didn't expect that one day she would also persuade others.
Life is like a dream, real or illusory; people are like time and passers-by from generation to generation.
…
After the second mother fell asleep, Yuan Zhao quietly stood up and walked out of the inner room. The fourth girl hurriedly came over to greet her, bowed and held her hand:
"My dear sister, I'm in trouble for you. It's not advisable to stay in the capital for a long time. Third brother and eighth sister have gone to prepare the car and the charcoal basin. You should leave the city quickly."
Yuan Zhao patted the back of her hand comfortingly and said calmly:
"Now that I'm back, how can I leave without paying my respects to my parents? Sister, don't worry, I have the command talisman in my hand, everything will be fine."
When she comes back, she must meet her parents.
"By the way," Yuan Zhao, who was about to leave, suddenly turned around and looked at the haggard Ning Xinxiangjun, "Fourth sister, when the second mother is better, you can go back to the Marquis Mansion to see the medical officer. You and the fourth brother-in-law have been married for many years.
, staying pregnant is not the answer.”
Although it is not appropriate to bring up this topic at the moment, after today, the two sisters don't know when they will be able to meet again and say these caring words. While their father and brother do not have to go to war, the poisonous doctor Zhu Shou is in the house and can see what is going on for her.
Mr. Ning Xinxiang did not expect that his sister, an unmarried girl, would dare to mention this. He was touched and amused, so he urged:
"Why do you, an unmarried girl, care so much? Okay, the fourth sister knows it. You should go back home quickly! After meeting your parents, leave the city immediately without delay."
"Um."
Yuan Zhao really couldn't afford to delay. He nodded, took the thick cloak from Luo Yan, put it on, and quickly left the eldest princess' mansion.
After a while, the carriage returned to the Marquis Mansion. The concierge had received the news and opened the side door to let the carriage enter the house directly. After passing the outer courtyard, it stopped in front of the main hall in the front yard. Yuan Zhao, who was wearing a cloak, did not wait for the servants to set up the carriage and jumped up.
Come down.
A group of servants stood on both sides despite the wind, frost, rain and snow, including Uncle Ji. When he saw the group leader jumping out of the car, he quickly held an umbrella and followed, reporting as he walked:
"The Marquis is in a bad mood. When he learned that you were returning home, he insisted on coming out to see you... Princess, it's okay to chat for a while, but it's not advisable to stay too long."
Yuan Zhao paused, stopped, frowned and looked at him, "What did Zhu Shou say?"
"Heavens and humans still have five weak aspects, let alone mortals?" Ji Shu said sadly, "He said that the appearance of the prince is similar to that of the late emperor. Even his master here can't force it. If he can rest quietly, he can still last for three to five years.
.”
The late emperor spent all his energy and thought, became increasingly weak, and died of illness.
"What do you think?" Yuan Zhao didn't believe it.
"My subordinate is incompetent. In fact, the Marquis had already shown signs of it a few years ago. I didn't dare to say it openly. It wasn't until Zhu Shou came that things got better." Uncle Ji said in a low voice, "Master Hou, I told you to keep it a secret, but you will take it for granted later."
After hearing these words, Lord Marquis will not be worried."
Worried that she will lose her cool and act impulsively.
This was truly a blessing that never comes in pairs. Yuan Zhao's eyes turned red instantly. After enduring it for several times, he pushed away the umbrella held by Uncle Ji. He raised his face and was hit by the cold rain and snow, and finally returned to normal.
"Let's go."
People are like time, they are all passers-by.
Entering his father's north courtyard, he finally saw the kind faces of his father and mother after a long absence. No matter how hard Yuan Zhao tried to control his emotions, it was in vain. Tears burst down his face involuntarily, he took a few steps forward and knelt down in front of his two elders.
Seeing her daughter crying like that, how could Ms. Jiang be able to hold on? She got up and left the table and hurried forward. The mother-in-law hugged her head and cried with joy. Although Marquis Dingyuan sat still, he saw that his daughter had grown taller and stronger.
He was also full of joy.
When my daughter came back in such bad weather, the hot soup and hot food in the house were well prepared and served one by one.
Yuan Zhao devoured the food, while her parents sat aside and watched, asking about her current situation. Jiang asked about daily life, while Dingyuanhou was concerned about her daughter's current situation:
"Eat slowly, and leave immediately when you're done..."
When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she looked reluctant to give up, but she had no choice but to do anything. Yuan Zhao, on the other hand, changed his mind and said while eating:
"Although I returned to Beijing overnight, everyone who should know must already know. It would be inappropriate to just leave. I must at least go to the palace to thank my uncle for his love for the child, and to visit my aunt by the way. It has been ten years.
It’s been 2 years and I haven’t met my aunt yet.”
"Your aunt will understand," Marquis Dingyuan disagreed. He finally asked for an amulet for his daughter, but how could he let her go straight into the tiger's den? "As for your uncle, my father will explain it for you."
"Dad, some things can never be done again." Yuan Zhao's attitude was firm, "My daughter has received many favors from your uncle, but she never went to the palace to thank the emperor for his kindness. Such an ungrateful and greedy character is chilling.
?”
While His Majesty her uncle still misses a trace of her old love, even if the palace is like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, she still has to take the risk.
My father is already old, and there are some things that the younger generation must learn to take on by themselves.
"Are you sure?" Hearing the stubbornness in his daughter's words, Dingyuan Hou was helpless.
"Yes." Yuan Zhao lied with his eyes open and his tone was very sure, "Father and mother, please rest assured, I will definitely make it out alive."
Marquis Dingyuan and the Jiang family: "..."
Without that last sentence, they would have believed it. Now, how can they rest assured?
"Mom, dad, I can't hide away forever." Yuan Zhao patiently advised, "I'm fourteen, and I'll be a big girl next year when I have my hairpin ceremony. There are some things that I have to learn to face on my own. Don't you two want to see it?
Until I become mature and stable?"
"Humph, your mature and steady demeanor can last as long as a stick of incense, and my mother will burn high incense." Mrs. Jiang said angrily when she saw that she couldn't persuade her.
"Then this year's high-quality incense stick, my mother-in-law is sure to burn it." Yuan Zhao retorted.
"Okay," Marquis Dingyuan stopped the quarrel between the two mothers and asked his daughter, "Zhao'er, tell me, when do you plan to go?"
"Tomorrow morning." Yuan Zhao said without thinking.
"So soon?" Ms. Jiang was slightly startled and glanced outside, feeling extremely worried. "Looking at the weather, it will take at least a few days to calm down..."
"Then you have to go." Yuan Zhao was determined.
The emperor's kindness is so great that the worse the weather, the more she will go. On the surface, she is sincere, but in fact, her exposure to this snowstorm can make her uncle less afraid of the Marquis Mansion.
