Two years later.
The emperor endured until the oil ran out and the lamp ran dry, and finally passed away.
This year, Queen Wei was thirty-six years old.
It has been twenty years since the day he entered the palace.
From a common girl, to entering the palace as a palace maid, being lucky enough to give birth to a daughter, and then step by step from Jieyu to the top of the harem. In the last few years of the emperor's life, he has been by his side, and his grace and grace are unparalleled.
Before the emperor died, he made a special edict to pass the throne to the prince. In the imperial edict, Queen Wei was also mentioned. He praised Empress Wei as "virtuous and virtuous" and "can serve as a model for the harem". He also named Queen Wei the Virtuous Queen Mother.
With this edict, the new emperor and empress who ascended the throne as emperor could not neglect Empress Dowager Wei.
Empress Dowager Wei was also very sensible and not greedy for power. She quickly handed over the rights of harem director to the empress. Enjoy peace of mind, relaxation and dignity.
Princess Anya hired her consort a year ago and moved into the princess mansion. Now that there is good news again, Queen Mother Wei is very happy.
This year, Wei Yan was thirty years old.
He entered the Taiyuan Hospital at the age of twelve, and now he has been promoted to the position of doctor and is now in charge of the Taiyuan Hospital. His reputation is illustrious and enviable. No one knows the hardships during this period.
No one knows how frightened and angry the sixteen-year-old Wei Yan was when he realized that Queen Xu had ulterior motives for him.
No one knew that when he made up his mind to get rid of Queen Xu, he had already thought of burning the boat.
Fortunately, he succeeded.
Get rid of Queen Xu, and deal with the emperor skillfully to protect his beloved woman. Later, he saved the prince and tried his best to save the emperor's life. His merits are obvious to all, and he is highly regarded as a medical doctor.
For Wei Yan, his greatest achievement in the past thirty years is not these, but marrying a woman he likes.
This year, Ling Jingshu turned twenty.
At the age of fourteen, Ling Jingshu opened her eyes and lived a new life.
Her heart was full of pain and resentment, and she was thinking of revenge.
She brought her younger brother Ling Xiao to the capital, and met the emperor's grandson by chance. She didn't want to use her beauty to influence others, so she resolutely chose another road that was more tortuous and difficult.
Summoned into the palace by the ill-intentioned Empress Xu, she endured her life under the power of Empress Xu. After teaming up with Wei Yan to get rid of Queen Xu, she was coveted by the emperor again.
Fortunately, Wei Yan is there. Fortunately, there is Queen Wei.
The day she got on the sedan chair to marry Wei Yan was the happiest day in her life!
And the moment when my son Wei Xi was born.
Today, she is raising her children carefully and waiting for Wei Yan's return every day. Such a peaceful and comfortable life is, to her, the greatest happiness in the world.
…
The emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the emperor's grandson was also named the crown prince. The world is peaceful and peaceful.
Ling Xiao studied hard in the Imperial College for several years and finally passed the Qiuwei examination. Another marriage has been arranged, and we are just waiting to get married after high school in the next spring.
This marriage was decided by Ling Jingshu for Ling Xiao. In the past two years, besides taking care of the children, she also often walked around with the ladies of the capital. Quietly choose a suitable wife for Ling Xiao.
The other party's surname is Yu, and he is the daughter of the Minister of Rites. She has an elegant and outstanding appearance, is well-read in poetry and books, and is good at calligraphy and painting. She is a famous talented woman in the capital.
Every talented woman must have a bit of arrogance. This Miss Yu has a rather humble temperament and is never proud of herself.
After Ling Jingshu fell in love with Miss Yu, she had several contacts with the wife of the Minister of Rites, implicitly expressing her desire to get married. They also specially arranged for Ling Xiao and Miss Yu to meet their mother and daughter.
As Ling Xiao grew older, his pretty face when he was young became more resolute than a man, with a slender figure and a graceful temperament.
Miss Yu fell in love at first sight and nodded shyly. The wife of the Minister of Rites is also very fond of Ling Xiao. Seeing that her daughter is happy, she naturally agrees.
As a result, the marriage was quickly settled.
Ling Xiao must be kissing her. Ling Jingshu's worries were gone and she started busy buying furniture for Ling Xiao's house.
Since Ling Jingshu married into the Wei Mansion, Ling Jingshu's status has skyrocketed with the glory of Queen Wei. The whole Ling family also got a lot of credit. Lord Ling Wu had already found a good official position, but it was a long way to go, so he quickly took his wife and children to the post.
I want to return to the capital, but I don’t know if it will take the year of the monkey or the month of the horse.
Ling Jingshu was so happy that she would never see Ling Wuye and Li again.
In the past two years, she also married off the two maids around her.
Qiaoyun married the son of the chief steward of the Wei Mansion.
As for Bai Yu, she has always secretly liked Han Yi, the steward of Huichun Hall. Ling Jingshu had a meeting with Bai Yu's master and servant, and she wanted to fulfill Bai Yu's wish. Wei Yan specially asked Wei Yan to make peace with Han Yi in person, and this beautiful thing was accomplished.
…
Time flies, and five years have passed in a flash.
On this day, Wei Yan suddenly returned home early.
Wei Xisheng, who is seven years old, is fair and handsome, but his temperament is not as quiet as Ling Jingshu and Wei Yan, and is quite lively. He rushed over from afar: "Dad! You came back so early today."
Wei Yan smiled and picked up his son, while sighing: "Xie'er, you're a lot heavier again. If this continues, dad won't be able to hold you anymore."
Wei Xi made a naughty face and responded with a smile: "Xie'er will eat less at each meal from now on."
Then she turned around and shouted: "Mom, why are you walking so slowly?"
Ling Jingshu, who wore her hair in a woman's bun, pursed her lips and smiled, and walked over slowly as usual.
Several years have left no trace on her face, only added mature charm and beauty. Every frown and every smile is charming.
Wei Yan looked at Ling Jingshu with tenderness in his heart.
He held his son in one arm and stretched out the other arm to take Ling Jingshu into his arms: "Ah Shu, I have something important to tell you."
Ling Jingshu chuckled and raised her head: "What's wrong?"
Wei Yan cleared his throat: "I have resigned from the position of medical doctor to the emperor. The emperor has agreed. I will stay with you at home for a while, and then we will pack our bags and leave the capital."
Ling Jingshu was surprised and happy: "Did you really resign? How could the emperor let you go?"
Wei Yan raised his eyebrows: "I am busy every day in the Taiyuan Hospital and have no time to come back, and I have never had time to accompany you. Serving the royal family for so many years has both merit and hard work. I can't be allowed to give them my whole life. Work hard!"
After a pause, he then said: "Ah Shu, from today on, I am no longer an imperial doctor, and I don't have to enter the palace anymore. The two of us will leave the capital together and go wherever we want."
He never forgot his promise to her!
Ling Jingshu's eyes heated up, and she nodded while choking.
Wei Xi shouted unwillingly: "Father, mother, wherever you go, Xi'er will follow you."
"Of course." Wei Yan seemed to be relieved of a heavy burden, and smiled easily and brightly: "We, a family of three, will always be together and never be separated."
Ling Jingshu nestled her head into Wei Yan's arms, her eyes filled with tears of joy.
From now on, the mountains are high and the rivers are far away, far away from temples and temples, and I feel free and at ease. (To be continued)
