114 “Drunken Bones (Guyan 1v1 High H)” Blossoms
byAfter what Yan Huai said, I thought that the new emperor would relent and comfort him, and then let him take Yan Zhiyi back to his house.But there was nothing, not even a ripple on his face. They just asked him to go back to the government, and asked him to say his resignation in front of all the ministers in the morning tomorrow. It was clear that he wanted to make a fool of himself in front of his colleagues!
Thinking of this, his face became even more ugly. He was extremely dissatisfied with the new emperor who had completely ignored the elders of the past two dynasties. When he left the Yangxin Hall, his face was gloomy. Even Cheng Ying who came with him was left behind by him.
It’s over, Xie Ciyan stood up and was about to take Yan Zhaozhao back to Jinyuan, but Cheng Ying suddenly walked up to the two of them and bowed, her whole body was full of the demeanor of a legitimate wife, and there was no trace of the embarrassment she had just now.”Your Majesty, my wife and Zhao Zhao have not seen each other for a long time. Could you please be kind enough to allow us, mother and daughter, to get together for a while?”
Xie Ciyan did not agree. Instead, he turned his head and silently asked Yan Zhaozhao what he meant.
She understood, turned around and glanced at her mother whose appearance had not changed at all, and finally sighed secretly in her heart and nodded in agreement.Xie Ciyan smiled at her and said, “I’ll wait for you outside to go back together.” After saying that, he walked out, followed by a group of guards and eunuchs.
In the hall, only the mother and daughter were left at this time.
Yan Zhaozhao was the first to speak, “What did mother want to say to me by specifically leaving me behind?”
Cheng Ying’s expression suddenly changed slightly, which was very different from the respectful attitude she had shown just now in front of Xie Ciyan, “Mother, let me ask you, did you know early on that the new emperor would make you the new queen?”
“Yes.” She admitted frankly, there was no need to hide it.
Cheng Ying’s expression suddenly changed, and she subconsciously wanted to raise her voice to scold her as before. However, she suddenly remembered that the new emperor was outside the door, so she quickly lowered her voice and said in a deep voice: “You have such a noble status, why are you just your father?”When my mother was forced to look like that, you didn’t say a word of mercy for him!Is this what my mother taught you?You just stood by and watched your mother’s family fall into dire straits.It’s just a waste of time for me, the legitimate daughter of the Yan family!”
Even though she knew that her mother leaving her alone to talk would not be a pure mother-daughter reunion, Yan Zhaozhao still had a glimmer of extravagant hope in her heart the moment before she spoke.But at this moment, she no longer thought about her mother or even the entire Yan family.
“Did Madam Yan just not hear what the emperor said clearly? The Yan family was burdened by Yan Zhiyi, and the emperor was already tolerant and did not kill all the Yan family. He just asked the Prime Minister and his relatives to leave the Sheng Kingdom. Madam Yan must not forget that Yan Zhiyi committedThe crime is enough to implicate the entire Yan family, so what is there to be dissatisfied with?” Yan Zhaozhao’s eyes were already indifferent, and the look in her eyes that looked at Cheng Ying no longer contained the admiration of a daughter towards her mother, as if the woman in front of her was just a stranger.
Cheng Ying was only immersed in her husband’s honor and disgrace and the Yan family’s wealth. She never noticed that Yan Zhaozhao’s name for her had changed. She just blamed her, “This is so rebellious! You are so evil.”A legitimate daughter, you should always remember that a legitimate daughter is a member of the Xingrong family. From the moment you are born as a legitimate daughter of the Yan family, you no longer live for yourself. Everything you say and do should be based on the Yan family.First!” She straightened her back, as if she wanted to show her mother’s majesty in front of Yan Zhaozhao, “The emperor loves you so much now, it is just for the glory of the Yan family!If you speak, in the emperor’s ears!While blowing the pillow, maybe our Yan family can still be prosperous in the prosperous dynasty. All the men in the Yan family are talented in literature and martial arts. They are rare talents. If they can’t enter the official career, their lives will be ruined!”
Cheng Ying did not question the emperor’s love for Yan Zhaozhao at all. Just because she was able to follow the new emperor into the Yangxin Palace before he became the queen, and because the new emperor treated her differently than an ordinary concubine and respected her opinions, the emperor already regarded her as his wife from the bottom of his heart. She had a status that was unmatched by others. It was only a little effort to protect hundreds of people in the Yan family.
Yan Zhaozhao lowered his eyes slightly, and there was only a faint light left in his eyes, which gradually disappeared with disappointment and disappeared in the blink of an eye.”In Mrs. Yan’s eyes, is it true that anyone who has not brought benefits to you and the Yan family is not worthy of being your daughter?” Her voice no longer had any fluctuations, and her voice was extremely calm. “I seem to be just a tool for you to compete for your husband’s favor and live for the glory of your family. But Mrs. Yan seems to have forgotten that I am a human being, not a puppet at your mercy, and I will not do what I don’t want to do according to your wishes.”
Cheng Ying’s face changed drastically, as if everything was out of her control. Her shoulders were shaking slightly with anger, but she was afraid of the new emperor outside the door, so she could only grit her teeth.
Just when she was about to curse, Yan Zhaozhao interrupted calmly, “In the future, if nothing happens, please ask Madam Yan not to come to the palace again.” She took a step back and gave Cheng Ying a big salute, which was a sign of her many years of upbringing. “Farewell Madam Yan.”
Only then did Cheng Ying realize that she had called herself Mrs. Yan, and she was even more furious. She tried her best to endure it again and again, gritting her teeth and saying, “I gave birth to you and raised you, and gave you the dignity of being a legitimate daughter. Is this how you repay your mother?! If it weren’t for me, how could you be standing here today and become the most precious woman in the Sheng Dynasty! Everything about you is given to you by me, and you want to drive me away in just a few words. How can it be so reasonable!”
Yan Zhaozhao’s expression didn’t stir up the slightest disturbance anymore. Looking at the hysterical appearance of the woman in front of her, it seemed that she was far different from the mother who was very far away in her memory.When she was very young, her mother also loved her and would play with her, and would even coax her to sleep softly when she was afraid of thunder.
But all this changed when my father doted on Aunt Yuan.Her mother no longer looked as gentle as before. In order to get her father to come to her room, she even drove her outside the courtyard in the ice and snow.No matter how she cried, her mother was indifferent. It wasn’t until she fell into a coma due to cold and fever that her mother slowly opened the door and asked her nanny to take her in, and asked the servants to go to Aunt Yuan’s room to invite her father anxiously.But despite this, he still failed to arouse any sympathy from his father. Until he recovered from the illness, his father never set foot in his mother’s room.
It was also from that time that my mother’s temperament changed drastically, and she was no longer as gentle as before. She was always required to remember her duty as a legitimate daughter, and to become a legitimate daughter that her father could put into his eyes.
Her mother’s heart is filled with thoughts of her father who does not take her into consideration. The love she had at the beginning gradually turned into paranoia, and now she is like this. She has already lost her way to look back. Besides, it is all in vain.
Yan Zhaozhao ignored Cheng Ying’s abuse and just said, “I hope everything goes well after Mrs. Yan leaves Shengguo.”
After she finished speaking, she didn’t stop and look back no matter how Cheng Ying shouted behind her.
When she came to this palace, she was alone, and she never had any family to support her. Now that she has Xie Ciyan, she is no longer alone. She finally tastes a touch of warmth, and no longer needs her family to support her.She has a very small heart, and now it is enough to only accommodate Xie Ciyan, and there will be no time to let go of the Yan family.
As soon as the palace door opened, she saw Xie Ciyan standing outside waiting for her.At that moment, all the coldness in her heart was warmed up, as if the cold winter had finally ushered in the early spring.
“Have you been wronged?” Xie Ciyan naturally took Yan Zhaozhao’s hand and looked at her eyebrows carefully. He was relieved when he saw that there was no blush in her eyes.
Yan Zhaozhao chuckled, “No.”
She thought how lucky she was to meet Xie Ciyan in such a dilapidated life.
He planted a flower in her lonely and desolate heart.
