Chapter 736 Chapter 736
When Song Guanzhou heard this, he could no longer hold back and cursed under his breath, fortunately the old lady and the first lady did not hear it.
After a while, she asked, "My father-in-law just obediently married my eldest sister-in-law?"
The old lady shook her head slowly, "Mr. Pei went to war with the army, and when he came back, my wife became a queen. I heard that she spit out blood on the spot."
Pei Jian planned to remain single for the rest of his life.
The marriage between the two houses is in jeopardy.
After all, she was young, and Pei Jian couldn't understand it anymore. He took his parents to the Xiao family in Jiangzhou to ask for an explanation. What kind of parents would be willing to send such a beautiful girl to such a cannibalistic place?
But when he arrived at the Xiao family, he saw the Xiao parents who had suddenly grown old, and looked at his sister-in-law who was beaten to death. Pei Jian burst into tears and sobbed uncontrollably.
"Your father-in-law said at the time that he would never marry again in his life."
Song Guanzhou was still sighing, but upon hearing this, he immediately laughed, "Of course he didn't marry. There are many wives and concubines in the mansion. If he hadn't been promiscuous, there wouldn't be the tragedy of my third brother..."
Pei Che!
Mentioning the disabled Sanlang, Madam Qin sighed, "There was nothing we could do. The late emperor was old at that time and could not stand the instigation of others. Your father-in-law was able to marry because, firstly, his parents in the mansion could not allow him to marry despite his talent and appearance. Secondly, your mother-in-law was very powerful and she said that your father-in-law had taken her body..."
puff!
After hearing these words, Song Guanzhou and the first lady both spat out their tea.
"Can't you?"
Madam Qin also waved her hands repeatedly, "The details cannot reach my ears, but it's basically like this, eh! Speaking of resentful couples, your father-in-law and mother-in-law are born to be resentful couples. At that time, Empress Xiao had a hard time in the palace, and the master couldn't bear it, so he thought of many ways. As a result, he angered the Empress Dowager and your mother-in-law--"
"what!"
Song Guanzhou held his face in his hands and exclaimed, "Won't Empress Xiao's life be even more difficult?" Empress Dowager, that was the former Empress...
At this point, the eldest lady laughed softly, "The Queen Mother has never been a queen. She was born a virtuous concubine."
Today, the emperor is not a legitimate prince, but one who killed all his brothers and earned his throne.
After hearing these palace secrets, Song Guanzhou was dumbfounded.
"Empress Xiao is young, and the late emperor is so old, but she can't have children either. It's because of her father-in-law that she has to walk on thin ice in the cold and cruel harem. I guess... she won't live long."
"There are many different opinions about how Empress Xiao died. No one knows. Some say she committed suicide, while others say she was given poisoned wine. In general, the Empress died when His Majesty ascended the throne."
Ok?
Upon hearing this, Song Guanzhou smelled an affair.
She coughed, cleared her throat, and then moved closer to the old lady, "Aunt, could it be that the emperor has taken a liking to the queen?"
Step-son and step-mother literature?
No, no!
Couldn't this world be just a makeshift troupe?
Madam Qin nodded. "Your Majesty is only a few years younger than Madam Xiao. I don't know when, but when His Majesty was a prince, he took good care of this madam. Even when the previous emperor passed away, the current Empress Dowager wanted to force Madam Xiao to be buried alive with him, but it was His Majesty who stopped this ridiculous decision."
"But..., the queen is still gone!"
"Fate."
After Old Madam Qin finished sighing, she said to Song Guanzhou, "Your father-in-law has been thinking about Madam Xiao all his life. Not to mention that your mother-in-law has never been a gentle and virtuous person, even if she is really lovely, she is better than a dead person. The couple is not in harmony, and they have been quarreling, and now it has come to this -"
However, the old lady had something to hide, which was that the current Duke Zhenguo Mansion was what the emperor liked.
The living cannot surpass the dead, and the same is true for His Majesty.
He was young and grew up in the bloody palace. Although he didn't know whether Empress Xiao had any feelings for him, he was sincere to her.
I'm afraid that the emperor's rare true love was all given to Empress Xiao, who was not favored by his father and even harmed him when he was young.
The sudden death of Empress Xiao made the new emperor heartbroken.
I heard the eunuchs in the palace spread rumors privately that the new emperor went to Concubine Xian's palace and almost destroyed half of the palace. Although she became the empress dowager the next day, the mother and son almost turned their swords against each other the day before.
The death of Empress Xiao added to the mystery.
"The current emperor held a grand funeral for Empress Xiao, and also posthumously conferred her the title of Imperial Concubine, which is half a level higher than the previous virtuous concubine."
The love between men and women of the emperor is like clouds and smoke.
But the early death of Empress Xiao took away these few memories.
It’s a blessing, but it also seems not to be.
In the evening, on the return carriage, Song Guanzhou asked Diewu to lift a corner of the carriage window curtain and look at the few passers-by and the dim lights of the roadside shops and houses.
Look at these candles, glowing brightly as they are left behind by the carriage.
Along with the gray figure and the mottled shadows of the leaves, there may be a soul that is hard to forget for a long time, sighing, babbling, and singing.
"Young Madam, I was very happy to see you in the Qin Mansion, but why do you seem a little unhappy after getting on the carriage?"
Die Wu looked at the beauty whose face looked like an ancient painting, illuminated by the glass lamp in the carriage.
Song Guanzhou pointed out the window with his jade finger, "Thinking of old friends, I can't help but feel a little emotional."
An old friend?
Die Wu listened and smiled to comfort Song Guanzhou, "Old friends will always meet again. Madam, you frowned, which made me feel distressed."
Outside the carriage, Pei An was riding on a tall horse, and Lin Shan also came from Song Youan's courtyard to the Qin Mansion to meet up with the carriage from the mansion.
At this moment, the two of them were riding side by side, and the sound of horse hooves seemed to knock on the hearts of those returning home at night.
"Fourth Young Master,... not very good."
Lin Shan shook his head slightly, with a rare look of pity on his face. Pei An stood tall, with a calm face. "Let's talk about it when we get back."
Song Guanzhou remembered Pipa Lang, and was afraid that if he went to listen to her, he would cause her more trouble.
Pei An knew that in his wife's eyes, Pipa Lang was a talented and good-looking man who was sensible and sweet-spoken.
If she knew that such a young man was actually a maggot in the gutter, living a debauched life that ordinary women could not imagine, she would certainly be sad.
This is completely different from the love and affection between men that was described so vividly in the notebook that Wen Si sent.
Lin Shan saw that the Fourth Young Master was thinking about the Young Madam even when it came to such trivial matters, so he nodded and said, "I understand."
After returning to Shaohua Garden, Song Guanzhou was still in a low mood.
She took off her hairpins and rings, washed herself, put on a new blue brocade dress and pink peach-embroidered soft shoes, then lay on the kang, hugging a tiger-head pillow, and began to daydream.
After Pei An washed up, he went back into the inner room and saw that she was still like this. With a smile on his lips, he walked up to her and said, "What's wrong? I heard from Die Wu that you have been unhappy all the way..."
