Chapter 1037: Her Stupid Son Is No Longer Someone She Can Beat Whenever She Wants
Emperor Wenxuan told the emperor in detail about his plan to go to the Liang emperor's side for training, his brows full of unconcealable excitement.
When Empress Dowager Duan'an heard that her husband was still alive, the teacup in her hand trembled slightly and tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.
She clasped her hands together, her voice choked with sobs as she repeatedly said, "Amitabha, may the Bodhisattva have mercy on me."
She knew best that her son had not been able to eat or sleep for many days and nights since his husband's death in battle.
During those days, she didn't even dare to mention the word "prince consort" in front of her son, for fear of touching his heart. Now this ending is really God's mercy.
Her joy at the fact that her husband was alive far outweighed her surprise at the fact that Emperor Yu ascended the throne.
Wei Pingting sat quietly beside the dog, thinking to herself, her mother is a kind person. After many years in the palace, she still maintains a pure heart. In addition to being kind, she is also wise.
No wonder Sister Xia'er asked her to spend more time with Empress Dowager Duan'an and not let her live too lonely in the palace.
The one who went to the Lin residence to deliver the imperial edict was Eunuch Qi. This was of extraordinary importance.
The Lin family burned incense and set up an altar, and everyone knelt to welcome the imperial edict.
Father Lin thought his daughter had finally come to her senses and was seeking benefits for the clan members.
However, Yuan had a bad feeling.
really!
King Xiu'an! It was actually a title bestowed upon her foolish son!
He also granted King Li’s former fiefdom to King Xiu’an!
Oh my god! What a waste! Why give this title and fief to any of her sons? Why give it to a fool?
If it was any other reward, she would snatch it from her silly son and give it to her other sons.
But how can she fight for the title and fiefdom?
Yuan was so angry that she almost went crazy!
But her silly son didn't know what the title and fiefdom were, and he just thought that the imperial edict was given by his sister. After receiving the edict, he held it in his arms and refused to let go.
It was Eunuch Qi who coaxed him softly, "This imperial edict is to be enshrined in the family ancestral hall. The emperor's grace is so great that it is not only a symbol of honor, but also a place for the descendants of the Lin family to admire."
Yes, it is enshrined in the Lin family ancestral hall, so that every time the Lin family members see it, they feel heartbroken!
Lin Huaijin blinked his ignorant eyes, a little disappointed, "Oh, so this is not given to me by my sister and nephew."
"It's for you..."
"Then why can't I hug you?" Lin Huaijin was obviously very distressed.
Yuan felt her face burning, and she twisted the handkerchief tightly in her hand, squeezing out words from between her teeth, "You evil creature! Why don't you let go? This is an imperial decree to be enshrined in the ancestral hall! If you tear a corner, your head will fall off!"
Lin Huaijin was frightened by the fierce look in his mother's eyes. His fingers trembled and the bright yellow scroll suddenly slipped off.
Seeing that the imperial edict was about to fall to the ground, Eunuch Qi was quick-witted and caught it just three inches from the ground.
He broke out in a cold sweat.
Everyone in the Lin residence was covered in cold sweats and knelt on the ground in unison.
Everyone hated Lin Huaijin to the core, and that hatred was seven parts jealousy and three parts anger.
The red gold hairpins on Yuan's temples trembled unsteadily. She slapped Lin Huaijin with her backhand, causing him to stagger two steps. "You are a filthy bastard who is looking for death! You are a waste! You are incapable of accomplishing anything, but you are always causing trouble! Go to the ancestral hall and kneel until dawn!"
Lin Huaijin was obviously very afraid of the ancestral hall. Although he was very tall, he suddenly curled up like a shrimp and even hugged his head and sobbed in public, "Mother, I don't dare to do it again! Don't hit me! Jin'er doesn't want to go to the ancestral hall. I'm afraid..."
Eunuch Qi's face became increasingly gloomy, and a sharp gleam like a knife shone through his eyes.
He raised his orchid finger, narrowed his eyes, and slowly stroked the wrinkled cloud dragon pattern on the imperial edict with his fingertips. He said in a shrill voice, "Oh my, I've finally opened my eyes today. The Lin family is so powerful that they even dare to fight against the Xiu'an Prince who was personally appointed by the emperor!"
Yuan was shocked to realize that her foolish son was no longer someone she could beat whenever she wanted, but His Royal Highness the Prince approved by the imperial pen. A chill suddenly ran up her spine, and even the red gold hairpins on her temples rustled.
"Eunuch Qi..." Yuan's throat tightened and she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, "I was confused for a moment..."
Eunuch Qi sneered, "If Madam Lin's slap is recorded in the clan records, I'm afraid it will be more than just kneeling in the ancestral hall."
After such a commotion, Eunuch Qi took the opportunity to bring Lin Huaijin into the palace on the grounds that he was worried that Prince Xiu'an would be beaten.
A few days later, Empress Dowager Duan'an and Prince Xiu'an went directly to their fiefdom.
The Lin family didn’t get the news until several days after the person had passed away. Yuan was so angry that she collapsed on the spot and kept calling him “evil creature”.
I don’t know whether she was scolding her daughter or her stupid son.
Emperor Wenxuan settled his mother and uncle, and finally felt relieved. He spent every day with the young queen, just waiting for the day to set off for Liang State.
Who would have thought that the news that the prince consort was not dead would spread like wildfire.
Within a few days, the news had spread widely among the people.
The storyteller of "Fuguilou" clapped his wake-up stick and blew it with great joy, "Did you know, dear readers? That prince consort was actually Uranus incarnate! On that day, among the thousands of soldiers and horses, a golden light shot up into the sky. What do you think happened to that golden light later?"
"how?"
"Of course, it turned into a golden bell, covering the prince consort tightly! As the saying goes, if you borrow a life from the Nine Heavens, the golden armor god will protect you!"
So, the prince consort is not dead!
Wei Pingting leaned against the red railing, listening to the palace maids repeating rumors, and couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Zhu Tou Jiu, listen to this, the prince consort has now become a god with three heads and six arms."
Zhu Tou Jiu raised his head proudly and said, "My charcoal seller is definitely a god with three heads and six arms."
But one day, a woman wearing a plain gauze hat sat in a teahouse. The celadon teacup cracked between her fingers, and the amber tea dripped along the cracks on the table, leaving a hideous claw mark on the blue brick floor.
"This young lady..." The waiter was about to step forward when he suddenly heard the woman squeeze out the word "very good" from between her teeth, her voice as cold as if poisoned.
She threw out a piece of silver, and when she stood up, a corner of her veil was lifted by the draft. In the dim lantern light of the teahouse, half of her mean and cold face was revealed.
In the private room on the second floor, the storyteller was talking about the exciting part of "the prince consort single-handedly breaking out of the siege" when the gavel was banged loudly.
The woman, however, looked resentful amid the cheers from the whole room, and her cuffs embroidered with butterflies were trembling.
A carriage stopped in front of her and the woman got on.
She pulled off her veil and threw it at her feet, gritting her teeth and said viciously, "How come Shi Anxia is so lucky? Didn't her husband die? Isn't she a widow?"
The maid bent down to pick up the veil and whispered to comfort her, "Madam, calm down. This must be some idle fool's nonsense. The prince consort must be dead! And that woman must be a widow!"
The woman seemed to be comforted. She pressed down her violently heaving chest and tightly closed her eyes. "Yes, the prince consort must be dead. Shi Anxia is destined to be a widow!"
Just as he finished speaking, a gong sounded at the end of the long street, "Liang State envoys are entering the capital! All outsiders, please leave..."
