184 Didn't Come Today

She felt that there were some things that were difficult for Jiang to tell her when he was alive. Now that she was dead, it was time to confess to her.

When Jiang was buried, Taozi and the others went with them and knew where Jiang was buried.

At the foot of the mountain two miles away from Hanshan Temple in the north of the city, Bai Xiucai was buried there.

At that time, Mo Shaohua had someone build a cemetery for Jiang, but when Bai Lianran woke up, she insisted that Jiang and Bai Xiucai be buried together.

The carriage swayed out of the city, and Bai Linran was sitting in the carriage, holding in her hand the box she found among the ruins of the house in the south of the city.

The box was used by Jiang to store jewelry. The box was half burned by the fire, but the contents were still intact. Bai Liran took it over to her.

Bai Liran asked Taozi and Yun Shu to go further away, and also ordered the secret guards in the dark to stay away as well.

After making sure that no one could hear her, she knelt down in front of the grave, put out the cakes in the food box, and burned some paper money for Jiang and Bai Xiucai.

He took the small shovel from the basket and dug a hole on the grave. "Mom, have you met Dad?"

She smiled after asking.

This question is nonsense.

When a person dies, nothing is left, so there is no such thing as encounter.

Seeing that the pit was almost dug, she put the box in and dug up the soil to bury it.

After the box was buried, she sat on the ground on the grave, looked at the tombstone, and sighed, "Mom, I have never told you the truth. In fact, I am no longer your Ran'er. Your Ran'er is gone long ago.

He hit his head on a pillar of Prince Ning's Mansion and died."

She laughed self-deprecatingly, "Are you saying it's ridiculous? Ran'er committed suicide because of Mo Shaohua, and you also lost your life because of my relationship with him. I also said that I would honor you by taking over your daughter's body.

But I enjoyed your love for several months in vain, and even caused you to lose your life."

Feeling that her eyes were a little stingy, she sniffed and said, "I know I'm not good, so don't hate me."

The breeze was blowing gently, and Bai Lianran felt a little cold on her face, so she raised her hand to wipe the tears from her cheeks.

Sure enough, the dead know nothing, only the living suffer.

She shouldn't have been born.

If she had not been born, the woman would not have died.

If the woman had not died, the man would not have hated her so much, she would not have grown up in pain, and these things would not have happened.

After sitting in front of the grave for a long time, a pair of hands wrapped around her shoulders. Yun Shu's voice came from above her head, "It's windy, don't freeze. It's not far from Hanshan Temple. Let's go pray for Madam."

Bai Ranran took Yun Shu's hand and stood up. She felt her legs were a little numb and staggered. Fortunately, Yun Shu hugged her waist in time and supported her.

Outside the gate of Hanshan Temple, there were guards guarding the gate, a magnificent royal carriage was parked outside, and the pilgrims were blocked outside.

Apparently, a big shot came to the temple.

Bai Ranran stood next to the pilgrims and asked the woman beside her doubtfully, "Auntie, who is so grand and elegant that they don't let us in?"

The aunt smacked her lips and whispered to her: "I heard that she is the princess from the imperial city. I heard that the royal family went to Qi'en Temple before. I don't know why this princess came to Hanshan Temple?"

"Hey, you don't know that."

A woman next to her answered, "It is said that prayers at Hanshan Temple are efficacious. The princess may have some wish that is difficult to realize, so she came to Hanshan Temple."

"It's better to speak less about royal matters. If anyone hears it, they will be beheaded."

"Okay, okay, stop arguing, the princess is coming out."

Bai Lanran raised her eyes and saw from a distance a woman in plain palace clothes, holding the hand of the palace maid, slowly walking out of the gate of Hanshan Temple.

The woman had a veil on her face, and although she couldn't see her face clearly, Bai Ranran recognized it as Mo Chuqing at a glance.

She came to Hanshan Temple to pray for the queen?

It seems that the Queen's health is really in danger.

She didn't show any mercy towards the queen, she just felt that letting her die like this would be an advantage to her.

When people do something wrong, they should be punished.

The only guilt in her heart was for Mo Chuqing, and she felt a little guilty for taking advantage of her.

She said goodbye to Yun Shu and Tao Zi beside her, then turned around and walked straight to the carriage.

It was already evening when I got home, and the sun was setting over the western mountains. The sunset glow was like fire, reflecting half of the sky in brilliant red.

Bai Lunran sat in the courtyard admiring the beautiful sunset, unconsciously stroking the bracelet on her wrist, squinting her eyes and purring comfortably from the snowballs on her legs.

Bai Liran didn't go back to the house to eat until the sun went down.

Mo Shaohua didn't come today.

Mo Shaohua came every day before, whether she ignored him or not, but he didn't come today.

Even if she was not in the mansion, the concierge would have reported her. Mo Shaohua did not come today.



At this time, Mo Shaohua was in the political affairs hall, sitting face to face with Emperor Chengde.

Emperor Chengde looked at him, frowning and squinting his eyes slightly, looking majestic and angry, "Where is your second brother now? Although he is rebellious and has made unforgivable mistakes, he is, after all,

He is your closest relative of flesh and blood, you cannot hurt his life."

Mo Shaohua sneered in his heart, what he said was so nice. Back then, he even killed his own flesh and blood relatives.

It is really ridiculous for a person who committed the murder of his brother and his wife to tell him that the closest relatives should not be harmed.

His expression remained unchanged, he stood up and knelt down, "The second brother did fake his death, and I did find him, but I just sent him farther away. Now I don't know where he is. He is my son."

I am my second brother, how could I hurt him?"

"It is my fault that I concealed my father for my second brother, but this is what my second brother wanted. If my father blames me, I will accept the punishment voluntarily."

Emperor Chengde told him so confidently that he knew something, and if he didn't admit it, it would be more likely to arouse his suspicion.

"You value friendship so much, how could I blame you? Get up."

Emperor Chengde sighed, seeming a little tired, "You have been smart since you were a child. You are my most beloved child and the one I value most. I hope you will not disappoint me."

What he said seemed to be sincere, but he was actually warning Mo Shaohua.

Now that Mo Shaohua was at the height of his power in the court, and more and more ministers supported him, Emperor Chengde only had some thoughts on the matter of establishing a heir apparent.

"My sons and ministers must try their best to do their duty and relieve their father's worries."

Mo Shaohua expressed his loyalty, stood up from the ground, and sat back down again.

Ever since he entered the court, he could no longer be allowed to act recklessly.

Emperor Chengde thought of taking him seriously, so he would no longer allow him to act like he did in the past.

Letting the daughter of a close minister marry him is a warning and a sign of attention.

He had nowhere to escape, unless he gave up the throne or found another way.

It's just that it's too risky, and the price paid is huge, and the result may be something he can't bear.

Emperor Chengde rubbed his brows and waved his hand towards him, "I'm tired, you can go."

Mo Shaohua saluted, turned and left.

After leaving the palace, he asked the coachman to go directly to the White House in the city.

The carriage stopped in front of the door for a long time, and he never got out of the car until it was getting dark.
