Mu Nanzhi seemed to have remembered something. He was silent for a while, and then said: "When I first came to Dali, there was only Jixiang who was only a few years older than me. When I cried, she would cry too, and she couldn't handle it at all. At that time, there was also a nanny who treated me very well. She used to serve Concubine Liang. She was very old, somewhat deaf, illiterate, and had a stubborn temper. She did not know how to flatter, but she was very loyal. I heard that she even She raised my mother all by herself. Concubine Liang valued her very much, so she came over to serve me. She was very good to me. She taught me the royal etiquette of Dali, cooked and dressed me, and celebrated my birthday every year. , she would roll out a bowl of egg noodles for me. Her name is very nice, Bixiang. I like to call her Grandma Xiang. Sometimes I will call her Xiangbao on purpose. She is never angry with me, but I am very angry. When she was one year old, Grandma Xiang was poisoned to death. "
Concubine Liang is the mother-in-law of Princess Duanhui Heshuo and the maternal grandmother of Mu Nanzhi.
Lu Zhishan suddenly turned away: "She was poisoned to death? Didn't she die of illness?"
Lu Zhishan had always paid close attention to Mu Nanzhi when he was still in southern Xinjiang, so he also knew that there was indeed such a nanny beside Mu Nanzhi in the past, but didn't that nanny die of illness
"This cousin also knows?" Mu Nanzhi was a little surprised, and then gave a bitter smile, "At that time, everyone said that Aunt Xiang had a strange disease and died suddenly, but I knew Aunt Xiang was poisoned to death.”
"That bowl of honey bean and lily porridge was supposed to be for me, but Grandma Xiang has always had the habit of tasting food for me. That day, after Grandma Xiang drank a spoonful of honey bean and lily porridge, she immediately fell to the ground with bleeding from her orifices. On the ground." Mu Nanzhi's face turned pale, his lips trembled slightly, and he looked out the window blankly. After a while, he said again, "At that time, I was frightened. I was stunned for a while before I remembered to call the imperial doctor, but But Aunt Xiang held my hand tightly. She said she didn't live long and asked me not to show off, and asked me to take a veil and wipe the blood off her face. "
"She said that she should be treated as if she had a strange disease and died suddenly. She also said that Concubine Liang could no longer protect me, so she asked me to ask the Queen Mother for protection and to ask the Queen Mother to send me a new nanny. I should be filial to the Queen Mother and strive to be released as soon as possible. palace."
"Later, I did everything as I was told. I didn't dare to see Concubine Liang anymore, and I focused on pleasing the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother indeed gave me a new nanny and took good care of me. I gradually gained face in front of the Queen Mother. In the second year, the emperor promoted me to the title of county prince, and I finally moved out of the palace and moved into my mother's palace, Princess Duanhui Heshuo."
Lu Zhishan stretched out his hand and held the child's slightly cold fingers. He did not ask who was responsible for the murder. He just held the child's hand tightly and then took the child into his arms.
"Cousin, if you had not been defeated that year and had not injured your knee, what would you be like now?" Mu Nanzhi leaned on Lu Zhishan's shoulder, looking out the window at the clouds rolling in and out, and asked softly.
Lu Zhishan shook his head: "I don't know."
"Cousin, have you ever regretted it?" Mu Nanzhi asked again.
"No regrets."
He really didn't know, and he really didn't regret it.
