His children and grandchildren only talked with him. Shen Changjing drank a lot of wine that night.
From the next day, he fell ill.
The imperial doctor came to see me, but he only said that he was old, drank too much, and lamented about the past, which inevitably hurt his nerves.
But the rest of the Shen family didn't see it that way.
The words I spoke on that night of the Dragon Boat Festival, every word, seemed to be an explanation of the funeral...
Sure enough, in just a few days, Shen Changjing's body took a turn for the worse.
By the time the news reached Shen Chuliu, it was only the tenth day of May.
The day was very hot, so Shen Chuliu immediately went to Tai Chi Palace to beg the emperor: "I, my concubine, please come out of the palace. My grandfather is not very well."
"Then ask Yan'er to go with you. You are not in good health yourself. No matter what happens, just take care of yourself." The emperor said.
"Okay." Shen Chuliu responded, and soon, the prince accompanied Concubine Jing and a pair of guards to the Shen family.
Shen Changjing sleeps a lot now and doesn't eat or drink anymore.
When Shen Chuliu came, he waved his hand and asked Shen Zhong and others to skip greetings and go straight to the front yard.
Shen Changjing got up when he learned that Shen Chuliu was here. But he really didn't look good.
Shen Chuliu just took one look and roughly knew that this old man was probably going to leave.
She smiled and said, "Grandpa spent his whole life in the army, so how come he is suppressed by this minor illness?"
"I'm old and can't do it anymore." Shen Changjing couldn't get up: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and greetings to the Empress."
"It's all exempt." Qi Yan said.
"Now that the empress is here, it's just right. I also have something to say." Shen Changjing said, and then took a few breaths: "You juniors, please go out. Your Highness, why don't you go for a walk in the backyard?"
Qi Yan looked at Shen Chuliu.
"Go and meet the other elders." Shen Chuliu said.
Qi Yan nodded and went out.
He really has no relationship with the Shen family.
I just know that this is his mother's family, and it's psychologically different.
Soon, Shen Changjing, Shen Zhong, Song and Shen Chuliu were left in the room.
Among the people waiting, there was only one Yuanxiao.
"When I lie down these days, I think of a lot of things." Shen Changjing sighed: "I always think of your father and your mother."
"I went over and thought I had nothing to do with you. Although you have lost your parents since you were a child and have never even met your father, the Shen family is well clothed and well-fed, and you will not be wronged."
"In the past few years, I had a lot of free time, and then I started to think about your affairs. It was because the family was not good at that time, and they forced you to enter the palace. The family...can't take it for granted just because you are a concubine now and your child is a prince. . What I said today is sincere, Shen Zhong, you must listen."
Shen Zhong agreed.
"This is all in the past." Shen Chuliu smiled.
"It's over, but it's still a knot in your heart that you will never get over. If your father were still here, he would definitely not allow you to enter the palace." Shen Changjing said, breathing slowly again.
"The family can't help you, and I can't help Girl Qiong. You two are the most capable." Shen Changjing sighed: "Fortunately, you both struggled out. Grandpa is not talking nonsense. If one of you is trapped in the palace, will you?" If you die, if you die in that messy prince's palace, how can I say I can't help you?"
"These years... I rarely think about these things." Shen Chuliu smiled, with a hint of ridicule: "I was forced to enter the palace, that's true. But after I entered the palace, I didn't want to take revenge. . It’s just that I have been acting unscrupulously for many years, and I really don’t care about the Shen family. Fortunately, there is only one thing that disappoints me.”
"Ever since I was forced to enter the palace, my memories of growing up in the Shen family over the past ten years have been blurred. My grandfather didn't understand. The person who always thought you loved you suddenly turned into a terrible person. That is really sad. ”
Shen Chuliu thought that luckily she was someone with past life memories. If you were a little girl who was born and raised in a native country and has no parents, you don’t know how to deal with it.
"The Shen family has raised me for more than ten years, and the Shen family has also been my supporter for decades. No matter how capable I am, without the Shen family, I would not be where I am today. And the Shen family, now with me and Yan Son, you can go further. I said, I didn’t hate it much at the beginning. Let’s just let it go.”
There is no use worrying about these things. Life is too short to worry about these things.
Shen Changjing heard her unfinished thoughts. She didn't care anymore, but she couldn't go back.
She no longer has any affection for the Shen family.
"That's fine. We can't help you anyway. When I meet your parents in the future, I will be the one to speak." Shen Changjing smiled.
"Grandpa, there is no need to say this. No matter what, I wish the Shen family well, and I also hope that my grandfather will live a long life." Shen Chuliu said.
"Hey, it's a pity that it can't be done. The Shen family will be fine, but I won't be able to live a long life. In fact, it's good. There is no one alive in our group, so I should go too. There are still people waiting over there. And me."
Shen Changjing smiled: "My queen, be well, take good care of yourself, and enjoy yourself."
When Shen Chuliu left the Shen family, his eyes were still red.
But she didn't lie. She really didn't care about the past.
People, the higher you stand and the further you walk, the harder and harder it becomes to see the past and your feet.
Qi Yan looked at his mother: "Mom, are you feeling so uncomfortable?"
"Huh? It's just a sigh of relief. I'm afraid my grandfather will die." Shen Chuliu shook his head.
"Mom, you still have me." Qi Yan hugged her.
Shen Chuliu took a deep breath: "Yes."
Yes, between heaven and earth, it is this child who is connected by her blood.
even…
Her kindness to Qi Yixiu was already better than that of the Shen family.
She didn't even remember what the small yard she lived in was like when she was at Shen's house.
Along the way, she didn't speak much.
After returning to the palace, he first went to Tai Chi Palace and then sent someone to talk to the queen.
Qi Yixiu saw that her face was not good-looking, so he simply called the imperial doctor to examine her, but did not ask her to go back.
After meeting Shen Chuliu in the Shen family, Shen Changjing seemed to have done everything.
His face was gray with a look of relief.
In fact, since his eightieth birthday passed, his family has been secretly preparing for it.
This is also a rule, not expecting him to die.
Now, Mrs. Song saw him like this and hurriedly got ready.
On the twelfth night, Shen Changjing died in front of his children and grandchildren.
In the end, he said nothing.
Sure enough, what he said on the fifth night of the Lunar New Year was his last words.
In the morning, the news was sent to the palace. After Shen Chuliu heard it, he just paused his hands.
Qi Yixiu immediately sent the prince to help.
This shows that he values the Shen family and the prince.
Qi Yan took people to Shen's house. He couldn't do anything. Just sitting in charge had a different meaning.
The emperor decreed that in addition to the title, he was also given the four words "loyalty, bravery, righteousness and respect", and was called a first-grade general, "loyalty, bravery and righteousness".
They all have to be written on the tombstones: Lord Jing'an, General of loyalty, bravery, righteousness and respect.
