But Princess Jinyang is different. She has not had many friends since she was brought back by Prince Yan, and the Queen is her closest friend. Before getting into the carriage, Princess Jinyang had been in a state of trance. When she got on the carriage and saw Su Yan, Princess Jinyang burst into tears.
"You said why I...didn't say a few words to her during the day!" Sometimes it's like this, only when someone is gone can the people around me know how to cherish it, but it's often too late by this time.
Su Yan comforted Princess Jinyang a few words, but it was of no use. Princess Jinyang kept talking to Su Yan all the way, saying that the queen is actually not a bad person, she has never done anything bad in her life, even if she lost her children, she never murdered the emperor's children.
She also said that she chose to hang herself this time because she wanted to preserve the Zhao family...
Princess Jinyang said a lot, and Su Yan could barely remember what she said in the end.
Soon the carriage entered the palace. At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and people who had already knelt on the ground outside the Queen's Fengzao Palace, the married woman kneeled in the front and back, the married woman kneeled behind, and those who were closer all entered. nave.
At this time, the inner hall was also full of people, most of them were concubines and maids in the palace, there were also a few clan wives who were usually close to the empress, and of course the female family members of the Zhao family.
As soon as Princess Jinyang entered the room, she ran directly to the bed.
Su Yan's ears were full of sobbing and crying, the bed was crowded with people, Su Yan only glanced at it from a distance, the queen's face was very serene, and the death did not look like a poisoned person at all. people.
At this moment, Su Yan was suddenly patted on the shoulder, Su Yan was startled, and turned around to see Princess Rongyang.
"What's wrong?"
Princess Rongyang took Su Yan's hand out of the house and went directly to the side hall, and then said: "Outsiders are too disturbing, you are pregnant, my mother and concubine are afraid that you will be bumped outside, and said to let you Rest here, and go out to show your face when necessary."
According to the rules, when the empress passed away, the concubine should kneel before the coffin for three days and three nights.
Su Yan nodded, suddenly the sound of the prince coming came from outside, Princess Rongyang opened the window and took a look, and immediately ordered the servant girl to go out to see what was going on in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Su Yan looked at Princess Rongyang curiously.
"Now the person who kneels at the top of the house is not the Crown Princess." As soon as Princess Rongyang finished speaking, Su Yan got up and took a look. Su Yan recognized it almost immediately. The first person kneeling in plain clothes was Su Jian. Behind Su Jian, the married woman and the foreign married woman knelt on the ground, crying together, but they didn't know these people How much of it is true and how much is false.
Su Yan was startled, wondering if Su Jian was crazy? How could a concubine of hers kneel there in such a scene
Su Yan almost didn't think about it, and immediately asked Caixia to remind Su Jian.
Cai Xia hadn't gone out yet, the person sent by Princess Rongyang came back, the maid said: "Princess, His Royal Highness only brought Concubine Su into the palace, the servant girl heard from the servant next to His Highness that it was the Princess who thought She is not feeling well, that's why the crown prince and side concubine sent her off on her behalf."
Su Yan and Princess Rongyang immediately looked at each other, and both saw a big question mark on the other's face.
Lin Jin'er didn't want to come forward and just found an excuse not to come because she was not feeling well. How could she ask the side concubine to send the queen off on her behalf
Princess Rongyang hated iron and said to Su Yan: "Jin'er, what's going on! She must be thinking of using this opportunity to kneel for three days to grind her side concubine. Why doesn't she think about it? Son..." Princess Rongyang didn't finish, but sighed in disappointment.
But Su Yan thought much deeper than Princess Rongyang for a long time, she closed the window with her hand back, and said in a low voice: "Su side concubine can enter the palace, the crown prince must have nodded her head. The crown princess is not sensible, the crown prince always Will not be ignorant."
Princess Rongyang was taken aback for a moment, and soon understood Su Yan's meaning: "You mean, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince intends..." Having said that, a maid came in to give Su Yan and Princess Rongyang the white flowers on her hair. Princess Rongyang was temporarily interrupted.
After the maid left, Princess Rongyang said again: "The Lin family is the Prince's uncle's family, His Highness the Prince would not do such a thing, would he?"
"It's hard to say." Su Yan shook her head, and did not express any opinion on this matter. After all, the side concubine Su who got the prince's permission to go to the palace to see the princess off is her sister Su Yan.
Princess Rongyang frowned for a moment. Although she looked down on Lin Jiner's performance during this time, Lin Jiner was still her friend who grew up together. But on the other hand, that concubine Su is still Su Yan's sister.
So Princess Rongyang and Su Yan had a tacit understanding and shut up about this matter together.
According to the rules, the queen's body had to rest in the palace for seven days before it could be carried to the imperial mausoleum for burial.
Su Yan and Princess Rongyang put white silk flowers on their heads, went out from time to time and pretended to kneel for a while, and the whole morning passed quickly.
During this period, Su Jian knelt at the front and didn't even drink his saliva.
At noon, Princess Rongyang went out to arrange food, so Su Yan asked Caixia to invite Su Jian in, thinking that it was almost time, so she let her into the house to rest.
Su Jian was helped in by the servant girl. After kneeling all morning, her legs were sore and numb, and she could hardly walk.
Hastily asked Su Jian to sit down, Su Yan poured a cup of tea for Su Jian, Su Jian drank it up in one gulp, that's not counting, Su Jian drank two more cups, it was considered thirst quenching.
As soon as the tea was finished, Su Jian heard Su Yan ask herself: "What's going on?"
Su Yan was wearing plain clothes, looking at Su Yan's concerned eyes, her words were quite helpless: "The Crown Princess said she had a stomachache, and wanted His Royal Highness to carry her into the carriage, but His Highness refused, so the Crown Princess became fussy. After talking a lot of angry words, the two of them started arguing, and I don’t know why the topic came to me. In short, the prince brought me here in a fit of anger, but I was also in a daze. Know what to do."
This was also expected by Su Yan.
Su Yan wiped the fine sweat from Su Jian's forehead with a handkerchief, and said: "You have just had a miscarriage, you still have to pay attention to your body."
Speaking of this, Su Jian was a little hesitant, but she still lowered her voice and told Su Yan about it: "I had a menstrual event right after my miscarriage, but this month's was delayed by seven or eight days. Things have always been accurate, so I suspect... Do you think I have it again?"
Su Yan was quite surprised, Su Jian had a miscarriage in early April, now in the middle of May, if Su Jian is really pregnant...
Su Yan immediately scolded Su Jian: "Why are you so courageous? After the miscarriage, the confinement child will fall to the root of the disease if he can't do well."
Regarding Su Yan's scolding, Su Jian just smiled lightly: "He is here, I can't push him to others." While talking, Su Jian handed Su Yan his arm: " You show me."
