Jin Yue naturally understood.
There is simply no way to describe my mood at this moment.
In the dark night, she lay quietly next to King Chu, her voice sad and desolate.
"You know, if you die, I will be buried with you."
"But I don't want to die, at least I can't die until my revenge is avenged."
"Do you know how stupid I was in my previous life? Ever since I was sensible, I have known that I was the fiancée of King Jinyang."
"I know that he is the husband my father bought for me with his life, so even if I die, I will be with him."
"For him, I hide my sharp edge and pretend to be crazy and stupid every day, just for fear that he will find that my talent exceeds his."
"For him, I would rather die than break off the engagement with him. In the end, I wish to become his princess."
"For him, I sacrificed myself in the sea of fire, even if my beautiful face was burned, I wanted to keep him alive, but he said I was an arsonist."
"I did everything for him and gave him all the good things in my life."
"But later I found out that my close friend plotted against me and I was betrayed by my lover. In the end, he ascended the throne and became the emperor, but gave me the power to die in the palace. I can never forget the burning feeling when the poisonous wine was forcefully poured into my body. Burning and pain.”
After saying this, Jin Yue clenched her hands tightly and said fiercely: "They are not dead, how can I die? If I really want to be buried with you, I will also take Chu Heng and Yan Ruoshu with me."
In the darkness, King Chu seemed to hear the statement of a woman beside him.
That voice was filled with desolation and resentment. You could feel the humbleness of her love, pitiful and pathetic, which made people feel heartbroken.
He wanted to say: Don't be afraid that I will protect you in the future, but he couldn't speak no matter how hard he tried.
The sudden warm touch on his hand made him inexplicably reassured, as if he would soon find his way home.
Jin Yue intertwined her fingers with the King of Chu, as if this could calm the loneliness in her heart, and fell into a deep sleep.
——
The next day, there was overwhelming publicity outside that the snowstorm was coming, and the court called on everyone to prepare more food, firewood, and all other items for the winter.
By stocking up these supplies in advance, the Weiwu Hou Mansion made a huge profit.
Marquis Weiwu listens to the old lady at home talking about his granddaughter every day, why would he not think about it?
So on this holiday, we pulled several large carts of anti-snow disaster supplies to the gate of Prince Chu's Mansion.
At the same time, Princess Qin, who was acquitted, also came back with her guards and nuns.
Marquis Weiwu was speaking kindly to the chief guards guarding the Chu Palace, hoping that they would be accommodating.
But after spending most of the day, not to mention people, not even materials could get in.
Concubine Qin glanced at them and said disdainfully: "Even if I die in Prince Chu's palace, I will not resist the emperor's order. You can go back."
Mrs. Weiwuhou exploded when she saw the culprit, Princess Qin.
Regardless of the crowd of people watching at this moment, he opened his mouth and cursed: "You are a rotten-hearted, evil person.
Even your own son is willing to take action. Who knows if you framed the rebellion. "
After saying this, she sat down on the ground and said: "My dear granddaughter, how come I met you as soon as I entered the house, a vicious mother-in-law who is as ruthless as a snake and a scorpion to harm her own children? My granddaughter is pitiful, and the King of Chu is even more pitiful!"
"You, don't talk nonsense."
Mrs. Lao Hou immediately stood up and scolded: "Who is talking nonsense? Go and ask, who is the mother who is willing to let her son die? If her son really commits an offense, who is the mother who will not help cover it up? Old lady, I doubt it." The king was not born to you."
These words were rough but not rough. Although the spectators did not say it with their mouths, they all agreed with the words of Mrs. Wei Wuhou in their hearts.
After all, if this matter happened to them, how could they pick up their son?
He must be trying to cover it up, or even help his children destroy the evidence.
She was not born, said Princess Qin's heart.
Because of her guilty conscience, she became even more angry. She said bitterly: "Come here, arrest this little bitch and give me a slap in the face."
The guards beside Concubine Qin immediately caught the old Madam Weiwuhou.
Then Mrs. Qin's confidant, the nun, personally took the bamboo board and slapped it on the face of Mrs. Weiwuhou.
After a while, the old lady's face became swollen, one of her teeth was knocked out, and blood flowed down her mouth.
Old Mr. Hou jumped up angrily, but was suppressed so hard by the guards that he couldn't move at all.
Mrs. Lao Hou was not convinced. Her mouth was swollen and she could not speak. She stared at Mrs. Qin with her eyes.
After watching the play, Yan Ruoshu stood up and said, "My dear concubine, why are you angry with an old country lady who doesn't understand the rules?"
Concubine Qin allowed Yan Ruoshu to hold her arm, and the two of them were affectionate, just like mother and daughter.
"You kid, since you entered Jinyang Prince's Mansion, you rarely come to visit me."
Thinking that she had just been brought into Jinyang Prince's Mansion through the back door as a concubine in a small sedan chair, her heart became irritated and twisted.
But on her face, she always had a smile and a sensible expression.
Yan Ruoshu said: "My wife is in the palace, it will be inconvenient for Shu'er to enter the palace."
Concubine Qin nodded and said with a smile: "Come to Prince Chu's Mansion from now on. I will always live here. You can treat Prince Chu's Mansion as your home. You are welcome."
Yan Ruoshu nodded, turned to look at Old Madam Hou, whose cheeks were already swollen, and begged: "Toffee, please let Old Madam go. Shu'er and Yue'er are sisters after all. I can't bear to see them. Her grandmother was punished.”
Anyway, the punishment was over, and Mrs. Qin also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Shu'er, you are too kind. That's all. I will listen to you. I will let her go this time."
"Thank you, Princess Dowager, you are the most kind."
Mrs. Hou's mouth started to bleed when she opened her mouth. She whimpered and couldn't say a word. Her eyes widened in anger and she stared at Concubine Qin and Yan Ruoshu.
When everyone was praising Yan Ruoshu's kindness, Mr. Su stood up.
He sneered: "It's really interesting. If you really wanted to plead for mercy, why would you only come forward after the punishment is over?"
Yan Ruoshu's expression froze, and Concubine Qin frowned at the most handsome man in Huajing.
Su Ling showed no shame at all. He pointed directly to the place where Yan Ruoshu stood before and said, "You have been here from the beginning. Why did you wait until the execution was over before you stood up and pretended to be a good person?"
Everyone's words of praise disappeared instantly.
This Yan Ruoshu turned out to be so disgusting. Fortunately, they discovered it in time.
Su Ling looked angry at this moment. If he hadn't come a step late, how could Jin Yue's grandmother be harmed like this.
"Prince Su, you'd better mind your own business."
Su Ling stepped forward, supported the old lady of the Weiwu Marquis Mansion, and said, "Qin Taifei, what the old lady said was wrong? Do you think you will be beaten if you tell the truth?"
Concubine Qin looked angry: "You should be beaten for spreading rumors."
"But I feel that Mrs. Hou is right. What you did was not the behavior of a biological mother. I also want to ask you, is it really you who gave birth to King Chu?"
