Feeling Xiao Tingting's despair and coldness, Die Wu cried out loudly and hugged Xiao Tingting's neck tightly, fearing that if she let go, she would no longer be able to hold on to her mother who loves her so much.
For a moment, the only sound left in the entire Buddha was Diewu's childish cries.
Xiao Tingting, who was awakened by Die Wu's cry, tightly hugged the soft little man in her arms, buried her head in Die Wu's neck, and kept sucking the milk from Die Wu's body deeply.
The fragrance constantly reminds me that the little person in my arms still needs me, and nothing can happen to me.
Besides, the Fang family still has their own flesh and blood, and I will have to watch Jue'er grow up, get married and have children in the future. Now, I can't let anything happen to me!
For the sake of these two children, I can't let them lose their father and their mother to rely on!
Mrs. Xiao looked at the frail Xiao Tingting with distress, and she couldn't help but regret in her heart. Why did she indulge her daughter and let her fall in love with Fang Yizhi? What if she had listened to her husband, endured the temporary pain, and cut off her daughter?
Missing Fang Yizhi, does it mean that my daughter will not face the current situation?
Xiao Yu looked at his daughter with complex eyes, his lips tightly pressed together, his face expressionless, as stiff as a wooden mask.
Even though Empress Xiao had a life full of twists and turns, she looked back and forth at Xiao Yu's family of three, her eyes fixed on Xiao Tingting. In the end, she could only sigh silently, sighing for a long time, saying that her daughter was unable to take control of herself.
"I'll take the order." Taking a deep breath to soothe the crying Die Wu in her arms, Xiao Tingting pulled the corner of her mouth forcefully and said calmly with her eyes.
Xiao Yu nodded coldly, took a deep look at his daughter with calm eyes, glanced at his wife and sister, and turned around silently and walked towards the outside of the Buddha.
He didn't know what else he could say.
It was the first time that my daughter was getting married. Although I looked down on the Fang family, I couldn't stop my daughter from getting married.
This time my daughter got married, and I didn’t even have room to comment!
Last time, I was forced to relent because of Fang Yi's love for a yellow-haired child, in exchange for the emperor's decree of marriage.
But this time, just because Wei Zheng, who was terminally ill, wanted to see his son get married with his own eyes, and his son fell in love with his daughter. Without even asking for his own opinion, he let the emperor decree the marriage!
Anger, bitterness, dissatisfaction, etc., all turned into a helpless sigh in the end.
I can't afford to offend the imperial power, and I don't dare to bet on the lives of the Xiao family, which is in decline. I can't afford to bet.
Xiao Yu clenched his fists and unexpectedly thought of Fang Yiai.
Thinking that in order to prevent Fang Xuanling from being too deeply implicated by those unscrupulous tribesmen, Fang Yiai went to the Prince of Qi's Mansion with all his military exploits and negotiated conditions with the Prince of Qi, just to let the Qi people have
The king of Qi who had jurisdiction came forward and asked the elders of the Fang clan to agree to Fang Xuanling's resignation as clan leader.
Afterwards, I couldn't help but not being punished seriously by the emperor. He also won the emperor's favor and the prince's trust. Even Changsun Wuji favored Fang Yiai more.
If so. If Fang Yiai was his son, would he seize the imperial edict, ride into the palace, and ask the emperor to take back his order?
Staring at the slowly setting sun, Xiao Yu's eyes flickered a few times, shook his head, and walked slowly towards the front hall.
Seeing Xiao Yu silently turning away from the Buddha, Xiao Tingting took a deep breath again and showed a comforting smile to Mrs. Xiao. She softly coaxed Diewu in her arms and handed Diewu to Mrs. Xiao smoothly without losing etiquette.
He blessed Empress Xiao, and without hesitation, turned around and followed Xiao Yu's footsteps.
Xiao Yu and Xiao Tingting's backs disappeared from sight one after another, and Mrs. Xiao withdrew her gaze dejectedly. Holding Diewu in her arms, she slumped on the ground helplessly.
"What sin have I done? Why did God treat my daughter like this? Why? Ah!" Mrs. Xiao held Diewu in one hand and banged the ground with the other, crying inconsolably, "Why doesn't God punish me?"
?Why do you treat Tingting like this? Wuwuwu..."
Feeling Mrs. Xiao's grief, Diewu cried again.
Empress Xiao stepped forward and held Mrs. Xiao in her arms, comforting her silently, and stretched out her hands to try to comfort Die Wu. She felt sad in her heart, must all the daughters of the Xiao family have such a bad fate?
"Sister, if I had known that giving birth to her would make her suffer so much, ah, back then, it would have been better for me not to have given birth!" Lying in Queen Xiao's arms, Mrs. Xiao felt so sad that she didn't know it.
What he said was cathartic, "It would have been better not to give birth to her in the first place than to let me watch her suffer and tear my heart out! Wuwuwu..."
Although Queen Xiao had several husbands in her life, she never gave birth to a boy or a girl. Although she felt Mrs. Xiao's grief, she could not fully understand it.
I thought, if my biological mother was alive, looking at her precarious life, she would not be much different from the mood of her siblings looking at Tingting in such misery.
Looking back on her seemingly glorious life, and then looking at Xiao Tingting, whom she regarded as her own daughter, listening to Mrs. Xiao's sad voice and Die Wu's childish cry, Queen Xiao's tears also rolled down.
For a time, there was a lot of crying inside the Buddha.
Over there, Fang Yiai and Shu'er were silent for a while. Shu'er looked at Fang Yiai and said, "I'm going to the Xiao Mansion now. At least I can tell my sister-in-law as soon as possible. Maybe I can think of something to refuse."
Even if we can't think of a way, then at least let my sister-in-law be prepared and see what she has planned."
Fang Yiai calculated the time, thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's better to do it sooner rather than later. Looking at the time, Master Yu's class should have finished. You can take Jue'er with you. Jue'er hasn't been seen for a long time."
More than a sister-in-law."
The couple looked at each other and sighed.
Shu'er went to order someone to be taken to the carriage, and asked Xiuju and several maids to help her wash and change clothes. She then took the carriage to Yu Mansion to pick up Fang Jue and rushed to Xiao Mansion.
After Shu'er left, Fang Yiai returned to Fang's house. Maybe Fang Xuanling could find some way to prevent Xiao Tingting from going to the Wei family to celebrate the wedding.
Fang Xuanling left the office and went home on time. He looked strangely at Fang Yiai, who was following behind him and clearly had something to say.
Fang Xuanling simply washed up, changed into regular clothes, and then called Fang Yiai into the study.
After listening to what Fang Yiai said, regarding Fang Yiai's last question, and thinking of what someone said today that Xiao Yu was accompanied by the father-in-law of Taiji Hall when he left the palace, Fang Xuanling shook his head and said, "Chi.
It's too late."
Fang Yiai took a breath and asked without giving up, "What does dad mean?"
"Before I went home, I heard people chatting. It was said that Xiao Yu was called into the Tai Chi Hall alone by the emperor in the afternoon. When he left the palace, he took his father-in-law with him and left the imperial city without stopping." Fang Xuanling said,
"I thought it was for other things, but now it seems that the Emperor may have informed Xiao Yu and sent someone to follow Xiao Yu to the Xiao Mansion to deliver the order."
"Is there no other way?" Even though she knew it was nonsense, Fang Yiai couldn't help but ask, hoping that Fang Xuanling could give her a miracle.
Miracle, obviously somewhat unrealistic.
Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "Once the imperial edict comes out, unless the emperor himself takes it back, there will be no room for maneuver."
"Sister-in-law, you have to get married even if you don't want to?" Fang Yiai said with a frown.
"Refuse to accept the imperial edict is like contempt for the king. Although the nine clans cannot be implicated, the Xiao family will still be implicated. Tingting has no room for not accepting the imperial edict." Fang Xuanling said, feeling a little intolerable in her heart.
After all, Xiao Tingting's current situation was basically caused by Fang Yizhi. Let's not talk about the previous things. If he hadn't left such a handwritten letter to the Fusang people before his death, Xiao Tingting might still be a member of the Fang family.
Even if the woman remarries, the Fang family will still be able to interfere with her.
At the very least, Xiao Tingting will respect Xiao Tingting's own wishes when she remarries, and will never let her be hurriedly married to others by the emperor's decree.
It's too late to say anything now, the divorce procedures have been completed at the government office, and even Xiao Tingting's dowry has been returned to the Xiao family exactly.
Except for their two children, the Fang family and Xiao Tingting no longer have any extraneous relationship. If she remarries, the Fang family has no right to comment.
"Is it okay if the Wei family changes their tune and doesn't want to marry anyone?" Fang Yiai narrowed her eyes and asked, thinking of Wei Shuyu who was about to marry Xiao Tingting.
"Don't be ridiculous!" Afraid of Fang Yiai's reckless behavior, Fang Xuanling frowned and quickly shouted, "You know that Wei Zheng is running out of gas now. If something happens, give him the lamp."
Blow it out, you are not helping Tingting, but harming her!"
"Even if you gain favor in front of the emperor, you will not be able to easily bear the emperor's anger when the time comes!" Fang Xuanling reminded with caution and caution in his deep eyes.
Fang Yiai also knew that what Fang Xuanling said was true. After all, she felt that she owed Xiao Tingting something and didn't want to see her suffer any more blame.
"You know that Mr. Wei is already incurable, so why are you trying to get excited? It's useless. How could the emperor agree to it? If I knew who suggested it, I would have to find a way to skin him." Fang Yi
Ai gritted his teeth and said.
Because of Fang Yizhi's actions, not only Fang Yiai felt a little sorry for Xiao Tingting, but even Fang Xuanling felt guilty towards Xiao Tingting.
If he could, he wouldn't want to see Xiao Tingting fall into such a situation. But, alas, the imperial power is as powerful as the sky, and it is difficult to disobey the emperor's orders!
After dinner was set, Fang Xuanling and Fang Yiai sat down with everyone. Mrs. Fang glanced around the people sitting there and asked Fang Yiai, "Why hasn't the princess come back with Jue'er? Princess, tell you.
But, does she and Jueer have to have dinner at Xiao Mansion before returning?"
Fang Yiai quickly glanced at Fang Xuanling, raised her eyebrows naturally, and said with a smile, "I didn't say this in advance. Maybe Jue'er and Diewu were having fun, and my sister-in-law left them here."
It’s not necessary to have a meal at Xiao Mansion.”
Mrs. Fang glanced at Fang Yiai, not doubting that he was there.
