Weeping Willow Garden is located at the back of Anhe Hall. It is a miniature garden with ponds, rockeries, swings, flower pavilions, waterside pavilions and cloisters.
Because the second-bedroom Yongzhen Garden and the fourth-bedroom Yongqing Garden are adjacent to them, this became a place for the young ladies and young men of the two bedrooms to play and play.
Eight-year-old Sheng Ting came back from Weeping Willow Garden with a handkerchief in her hands. After saying hello to her mother, Mrs. Chen, she returned to her room and stared out the window in a daze.
She is the only legitimate daughter in the fourth room and the eldest daughter. She never gets to play with her two concubines. When she has free time every day, she plays with her cousins in the second room, especially those who are two years younger than her. My cousin Sheng Han is even better, just like a sister.
She always thought she could grow up happily without worries, but she didn't want to make a mistake last year and fall into the water, which would bring her back to her childhood thirty years later.
When she looked at the people and things around her with eyes that had experienced the world, she suddenly realized that something was wrong with her cousin Sheng Han.
"Suibo, did you just notice the expression of the sixth sister?" Since her rebirth, she has brought her most sincere maid to her side, explicitly and implicitly asking her to pay attention to Shenghan's performance, and Suibo will not let her down. , not to mention smart, but also very tight-lipped, which really helped her a lot.
When they were playing in Weeping Willow Garden just now, the nanny sent by her grandmother mentioned the changes in the garden party. When her mood fluctuated, she glanced at Sheng Han reflexively. Because I was afraid that I was overthinking, I asked Suibo one more question.
"Miss, I saw the Sixth Lady was shocked for a moment, and looked as if she couldn't believe it, but she soon recovered her composure." Sui Bo only said what he saw, without making any guesses.
Sheng Ting covered her chest and slowly felt her heartbeat. The rapidly beating heart made her eyes empty and she murmured in a low voice: "Yes, yes, it's right."
She felt that her body was a little shaky, her limbs were completely weak, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on her back. The wind blowing from the window actually made her shiver.
"Miss, are you cold?" Seeing this, Sui Bo quickly stepped forward to close the window, "I'll ask someone to make you a bowl of fruit tea to cool down the cold air."
"No!" Sheng Ting held her down and tried to order in a calm tone, "Maybe I am a little tired after playing in the waterside corridor for a long time... Just help me to the bed to rest for a while, that's right. After you put down the tent, please tell me not to disturb me when I'm asleep, and don't call me even when I'm having a meal. You'll tell me when I wake up."
Sui Bo has always been obedient, and seeing that she looked okay, he helped her lie down.
The moment the gauze was put down, she opened her eyes, but despite this, her head was still dizzy, as if she was in a whirlpool, which made her feel staggering even when she was lying on the bed.
After finally calming down, Sheng Ting found that her head was like a revolving lantern, involuntarily replaying scenes from her previous life.
She was born ordinary, and because she was pampered and carefree, she didn't know anything about the troubles in the house before she was born. Except for being close to the sister in the second house, the other cousins in the third house were all face-loving and rarely moved around.
When it comes to her impression of the sisters from the third bedroom... She only vaguely remembers that the second wife, Sheng Yuan, was born to be lazy, and she didn't need to use her intelligence to study; the ninth wife, Sheng Yuan, was chubby and liked to eat, drink and have fun. The most coquettish and a bit cunning.
They sisters don't seek advancement, but their parents have their own ideas, and their lives are much more enjoyable than theirs. If it weren't for the assassination of the royal family in the imperial garden, I'm afraid they would still be the envy of the sisters in the mansion.
Emperor Chengyuan was assassinated in the paddock. Emperor Chengyuan was seriously injured by an arrow and could not recover. Later, the throne was passed to the slightly injured prince. In this assassination, the young prince born by the prince's side concubine Xie was killed by a sword in order to save the prince; and her third uncle Sheng Sheng Xiang Xun, the third son who was saving the prince, was poisoned and injured his leg, making him unable to walk.
This incident, coupled with the turmoil caused by the suppression of the rebellion, made everyone in the capital feel in danger and panic spread throughout the city.
Later, the prince ascended the throne and named his second son Prince Hui'an. He also named his third son Prince of Chu. He married the second wife of the Sheng family, Sheng An, and named her Princess of Chu.
At this point, the storm dissipated, and everything seemed to have settled.
Except for Yong Fanyuan, which was so low-key that it seemed to have gone silent, everyone in the Shengguo Palace was looking forward to the day when the daughter of the Sheng family would marry into the royal family and become a princess.
After all, judging from the great favor of the King of Chu and his son, he is very likely to take over the position of crown prince.
But what no one expected was that on the day when King Chu and Sheng Ran were getting married, the late emperor's youngest son, Prince Jing, was also getting married. By some chance, the brides were swapped, and Sheng Ran entered Prince Jing's mansion, while the person who drank with King Chu became Sheng Ran. The sixth lady of the family, Sheng Han.
How can it be! This was like a thunderstorm that struck Duke Sheng Guo's mansion.
Sanbosheng Xiangxun even went to the palace to complain.
The Empress Dowager Qin was furious when she heard about it and sent people to investigate thoroughly, leaving the emperor alone.
When Sheng Ting thought of this, her eyes twitched slightly and she felt complicated.
She didn't know how the people in power in the palace dealt with each other. She only knew that there were several fierce conflicts in the Shengguo Palace during that time.
She still can't forget the scene when Jiu Niangzi Sheng Yuan held a knife with both hands and led others to slash Yong Zhen Yuan and trample Yong Zhen Yuan's plaque to pieces.
Then she found out that the Sixth Lady Sheng Han took advantage of the King of Chu's visit to the Duke of Sheng's Mansion and met her again and again. She actually fell in love with her after going back and forth, which made the King of Chu refuse to marry her; and there was Jing. The king fell in love with Sheng Anthracene, so the uncle and nephew worked together to do such an immoral thing.
The matter has come to this, and in the end it is just a matter of making mistakes. For the sake of the royal family's reputation, Sheng Han remains the Princess of Chu, while Sheng An joins the vassalage with Prince Jing in the name of Princess Jing.
The third brother, Sheng Xiangxun, requested to be transferred to the border county of Taining to garrison Mount Anluan. The emperor was ashamed to confer him the title of Marquis of Yongning. At this point, the third brother and his wife took their daughter to the post and left for nearly ten years.
As time passed, all the injustices dissipated with the improvement of power, status, and benefits. She married her husband, and the sisters in the family were also happy. Although there was no news from the third room, and the Jingwang domain was also peaceful, the King of Chu was still in the capital. In the middle, he became famous.
Although he failed to take over the position of prince due to mistakes, the emperor had never established a prince in ten years. The other princes were all mediocre, and all the important ministers were optimistic about him.
The Sixth Lady, Sheng Han, was praised by everyone in the capital as the Princess of Chu. She lived a pretty satisfactory life. She had been married for five years and had three sons. Although she had concubines, she had no concubines, which was quite satisfactory.
Sheng Ting didn't feel envious when she thought of her cousin's brilliance at that time. She didn't seek advancement, she only wanted to be together forever and just live her own life well.
Although the King of Chu loved Sheng Han and even did ungrateful acts for her, he did not bring back the stunning beauty from the south of the Yangtze River on a patrol and later made her a concubine.
Sheng Ting didn't know much about this concubine, but she vaguely heard that she knew a lot, such as the cement for building roads, weapons for siege, and productive grains, etc. She told the King of Chu.
What she remembered very clearly was that when Sheng Han mentioned this concubine, he was so angry that many cities collapsed. Later, because of that woman, a rift arose between the King of Chu and the princess, and the relationship fell to a freezing point.
She once heard from her parents that the concubine Sheng Han had caused a miscarriage, and the King of Chu was angry and wanted to abolish the concubine. Although the Empress Dowager Qin tried to protect her, Sheng Han was sent to a mountain villa in the countryside to recuperate. The actual mistress of the palace.
Ten years passed in a blink of an eye. The emperor celebrated his fiftieth birthday, and vassal kings from all over the country came to celebrate. No one could have imagined that the gathering of vassal kings in the capital would be a precursor to another thunderous event.
It was also at that time that Sanfang, who had always lived next to the grassland, came back.
Sheng Ting thought that as long as she still had memories, she would never forget the scene when she saw Sheng Yuan again, even if she was reborn for several more lifetimes.
