Comprehensive film and television: Queen Queen uses her beauty to commit crimes
Chapter 297 Farewell
For Molan, world unification is just a game that has been repeated for several weeks.
And this time, she still didn't have the chance to participate happily.
The princess unified the country at the age of 25 and ascended the throne with glory with the support of her brothers.
And she was happy to become the emperor who did nothing.
Lin Qinshuang also became the Grand Empress Dowager at the age of nearly fifty.
The princess who was deliberately allocated more talent points showed her talent without reservation and was hailed as Empress Chen who was even more heroic than Empress Qianyuan.
The world has turned according to her wishes more than three times, and this time Molan is ready to let it go.
It was like observing a petri dish in a laboratory. Since she had the ability to flip the table, she was not afraid of what was fermenting inside.
Empress Qianyuan left Empress Chen a foundation for a peaceful and prosperous era.
The fourth generation of the Sheng family has grown up. Changbai's son and daughter have both passed the imperial examinations. Changfeng's daughter joined the army and followed the princess to fight in all directions. Although she is blind in one eye, both she and the Sheng family are proud of it.
Chang Zhuo lived up to everyone's expectations and entered the Hanlin Academy as the top scholar, and then entered the Ministry of Rites as acting vice minister. He was smiling every day when he met everyone, but as soon as he drank, he would always talk about what he hated most in his life - studying.
His children are not yet 20 years old, but they seem to have inherited his Buddhist yet inexplicably malleable personality.
Rulan also gave birth to a boy and a girl and did not want to have more children.
These two children were squeezed and swayed by Rulan's happy education and An Qingyan's elite education.
In the end, the daughter followed An Qingyan into official career, while the son chose to travel around the world to study medicine.
As the King of Qin, Sheng Minglan and Yao Yiyi continue to assist Sheng Chen with all their might. In her spare time, she searches the world for a panacea.
Because the reason Molan gave for abdicating and becoming the emperor was "knowing the will of heaven."
So it turned out that she was injured during childbirth?
Or was it when the emperor personally led the army to fight?
Or was there something she hadn't noticed?
Every month she would send to the palace some supplements, as well as dietary recipes that she remembered would help maintain health and prolong life.
……
Soon, when Molan was expanding her spiritual power in the Jindan stage, Empress Chen's eldest son was already twelve years old.
The Empress Dowager Lin Qinshuang has also grown old.
Mo Lan sensed this and stopped practicing, and appeared in front of Lin Qinshuang in his true form.
Lin Qinshuang lifted her eyelids, which she herself felt were heavy, and touched the wrinkles on her face with disgust. She sat up and looked at her daughter, who had been wearing a veil for more than ten years, and smiled without saying a word.
Lin Qinshuang took a deep breath and made a decision.
She said to her silent daughter,
"Molan, come and do something with me."
"it is good."
The voice coming from under the curtain was exactly the same as what Lin Qinshuang remembered decades ago.
"Mom, what do you want to do?"
Following Molan's voice, Lin Qinshuang's thoughts were also pulled far away. Her eyes looked forward empty. While reminiscing, she answered without thinking,
"Mom, I want to take you to Yangzhou."
"it is good."
The travel of the Supreme Emperor and the Grand Empress Dowager is a national event.
Empress Chen personally arranged for the imperial guards to accompany her, and they sailed downstream on a large ship of imperial specifications. It only took them two days to reach Yangzhou.
The charm of Yangzhou City remains the same, as in my memory, but it is no longer the city in my memory.
But fortunately, the places in memory have been preserved.
Whether it is the once prosperous mansion or the former scenery.
Lin Qinshuang went to a temple called "Hongming Temple".
The temple is not very popular, but the people who come and go are all ladies from local Yangzhou clans.
When the Empress Dowager and the Emperor Retired came to pay their respects, they naturally sent their attendants away.
In the hall where only one host was standing nearby, Lin Qinshuang, who was already the Empress Dowager, devoutly offered a stick of incense and lit two candles.
After doing all this, Lin Qinshuang gave the host twenty taels of gold, twenty taels of silver, and sixty-six coins, and left without any reluctance.
After leaving the temple and walking in the deserted market, Lin Qinshuang held Molan's hand and said,
"do you know?
Back then, I could only stay in the mansion and watch Wang Ruofu go out to the temple to pray for blessings.
I am a concubine. This place is noble and I cannot reach your level.
I cannot light a perpetual lamp for my children, so I can only ask others for help.
In those days, a perpetual lamp cost ten taels of silver, and a stick of incense cost at least sixty-six coins as a gift. "
Lin Qinshuang insisted on walking through the neighborhood. She turned three times in the alley and stopped in front of a breakfast shop that had been there for many years.
"This is where they sell rice soup, I remember."
It is called a shop, but in fact it is just a dining car with a wooden archway.
The alley is not very wide, but under the new rules and regulations, it can be considered clean.
Molan knew that the scenery in front of her and that in front of Lin Qinshuang were two different scenes.
Lin Qinshuang murmured,
“Back then, my mother and I came to Youyang and begged Old Lady Sheng to take me in.
At that time, we had been running around for three days and only drank one pot of water.
This bowl of rice soup costs one penny, but we don’t even have a single penny on us.”
“At the time I was thinking, I don’t want to live another day like this.
After I have you, I will still think of this place.
I made up my mind that I would not let my daughter suffer from hunger and cold, live under someone else's roof, and be looked down upon like me.
Even if I am a concubine who is not presentable, I want my daughter to marry into a wealthy family with honor and become a noble lady that everyone admires, instead of being like me. "
“I did it, but I also didn’t.”
After saying this, Lin Qinshuang seemed to be relieved about this place.
She left Yangzhou immediately and sat on the boat, feeling the wind that was countless times stronger than she remembered. She returned to the cabin and took out a piece of clothing from the bottom of the box.
The clothes are plain white in color, with patterns of dragons and phoenixes and five bats that symbolize good luck and peace.
The style is elegant and simple. The fan-shaped circle embroidered on the hem with pearl white shines with seven colors under the sun, just like the tail of the legendary mermaid.
Lin Qinshuang stroked the dress with satisfaction and a sense of accomplishment, and said,
"Before, I always felt that my skills were not worthy of you.
Although the clothes you wear are all designed by me personally, most of them are sewn by hired embroiderers.
Now, my skills have improved, but I am getting older.
But it's still okay. After so many years of hard work, I finally made you a satisfactory piece of clothing."
"You are a rich color, matched with plain clothes, you two complement each other. If this were a painting... what would you call this...
Oh, I’m getting older and I tend to forget the books I read before.”
Lin Qinshuang held the clothes and moved them back and forth on Molan's body.
But she never asked Molan to change it now, nor did she ask her to take off the veil.
There is a tacit understanding between mother and daughter, separated by a layer of veil.
Back to Yangzhou, the journey only took a week.
But Lin Qinshuang didn't stop.
After washing and changing clothes in the cabin, she took Molan to the outskirts of Beijing.
The farmhouse that was once used for picnics has long been replaced by larger breeding sites and is now just a memory.
The village still has its charm, with colorful flowers, green plants everywhere, and bamboo forests and jungles.
Lin Qinshuang found a shady place, sat down on the ground, and lay on her back.
She smelled the scent of the earth and fallen leaves and listened to the birds singing in the distant woods.
"Mom knows you like it here."
"This kind of place is very quiet, and I always feel that time is slow."
Fine light and shadows, accompanied by the breeze, came down through the gaps between the leaves and hit Lin Qinshuang's face.
She was a little tired.
"If you find something you really like in the future, don't forget to tell me. I'll always be waiting for you."
"Mom is sleepy."
"Come and sleep with me.
But don’t sleep too long, just take a nap.”
Lin Qinshuang held up Molan's veil but did not take it off. She simply moved it in front of her face so that she could lie on her back, blocking her view and the sunlight.
After Molan lay down with her "help", Lin Qinshuang also lay back on the ground.
Her withered hands held Mo Lan's mutton-fat white jade tightly.
Gradually, Lin Qinshuang closed her eyes and fell asleep under the warm sun, breeze and shadows of the trees.
It was also at this time that her breathing went from steady to nothing.
Molan stood up, looked at the hand that was still holding hers, and knelt in front of Lin Qinshuang.
She lowered her head, and the veil hung from her head to her legs, spreading and fluttering in the breeze blowing across the grass.
She didn't move, and the curtain swaying in the wind and her shadow gradually lengthened by the dusk were like her silent crying.
At this moment, the imperial guards stepped forward cautiously.
Looking at the commander of the imperial guards kneeling in salute, Mo Lan sighed, "The Empress Dowager has passed away."
……
The sky is cloudy and the country is in mourning.
Funeral music was played in the inner palace, and all the ladies and officials wore white clothes and white flowers.
Lin Qinshuang pretended to be a virtuous and kind person all her life.
So at her funeral, most of the ladies did not need to cover themselves with scarves and cried uncontrollably.
The retired emperor still stood in front of the mourning hall with a curtain around his neck.
She did not kneel down, did not burn incense, and did not burn paper money.
She lowered her head, looking at the coffin in front of her, motionless.
Mother, you have all the reputation you wanted during your lifetime and after your death.
You deserve it.
It's not given by me.
I just gave you a chance, it's up to you to seize it.
……
The 49-day mourning period has passed.
Everything in the court remained the same as before, but Emperor Qianyuan still wore plain clothes, a white veil and ate vegetarian food all day long.
Ten years are the same as one day, twenty years are the same as one day.
Empress Chen also entered middle age, and to everyone's surprise, she made her youngest daughter the Crown Princess.
But things did not go as planned. An epidemic spread into the palace and the new emperor died.
There is chaos in the court.
The retired emperor, Empress Qianyuan, took over the government, dealt with the rebellion and supported the crown princess to ascend the throne.
Everyone was shocked at the 'toughness' of the retired emperor, and some even suspected that the 'retired emperor' was just someone in disguise.
but.
The silence of the Sheng family and the tearful look on the face of the old man who was about to retire, made these newcomers who had never seen the elegance of Empress Qianyuan give up all their hopes.
Although the emperor is old, she is still the majestic Empress Qianyuan who led the army to war in person.
When the princess successfully ascended the throne, Emperor Qianyuan was honored as the Supreme Emperor.
Few emperors in all dynasties could live to this age. He is not only a centenarian but also a benchmark for the Sheng royal family.
A few months later, on a winter day with the first snow, Prince of Qin Sheng Minglan fell seriously ill.
The Supreme Emperor left the palace and went to visit the Prince in person.
In the bedroom, the servants and maids were dismissed.
Yao Yiyi, who was already in her twilight years, looked up at the Supreme Emperor, whose back was not bent at all, and said weakly,
"Sister Molan, what about 'knowing one's destiny' as promised?
You really made me worry for nothing."
Yao Yiyi did not wait for Molan's response. She just kept talking about what she wanted to say.
“I have to go first.
But Sheng Tang is still alive, so don’t worry too much and don’t feel lonely.
When your legs and feet are still agile, longevity is a pleasure.
It’s a waste to enjoy yourself in the palace. Don’t treat yourself badly.
Don't do things that others can do yourself. Don't sit if you can lie down. But you still need to walk and exercise more every day. For old limbs, moving around and getting blood circulating is good for the body.
Eat more vegetables, more eggs, and more fruits. Vegetarians will always lack protein... and nutrition. You still need to eat some meat.
Otherwise, nutrition won’t keep up and organs will fail…”
Yao Yiyi's brain couldn't keep up with her mouth. The modern wording made her correct her words repeatedly and she stammered, which made her very anxious.
"I understand everything. It's okay. Just keep talking."
Yao Yiyi's cloudy eyes sparkled with light. She turned around, grabbed the corner of Molan's clothes, and asked with hope,
"Sister Molan, are you really a celestial being?"
"That's it."
"That's it."
Yao Yiyi was overjoyed and relieved at the same time. Sister Molan finally told her such a huge secret.
If you don't make some things clear before you die, you will never have the chance to do so again.
So Yao Yiyi said,
"Thank you."
“After having this life, I feel that I have not lived in vain, and I realize how ignorant and narrow-minded I was before.
I feel like it’s great that I have a chance to start over, to be a new person, and to live like this.
thank you.
Sometimes I really feel like you were sent by God to enlighten and save me."
As she said these heartfelt words, Yao Yiyi's eyes turned red.
But she knew she couldn't cry.
When you cry, all your strength is gone.
She quickly took a breath and said what else she wanted to say.
"From now on, please help me check and don't let them write anything they want."
"it is good."
"Remember to describe me as heroic and handsome, and don't bring disgrace upon the title of King Qin.
How can a dignified King Qin be only 1.56 meters tall..."
"Don't worry, I'll write it myself."
Written by Sister Molan?
"Really?"
"real."
"Thank you, Sister Molan.
I love you.
It’s the love of family. It’s the love of sisters.”
"I love you too."
After hearing Molan's reply, Yao Yiyi, who said "love" first, smiled.
"Don't lie to me."
"Sister Molan, you look like a tree to me."
This conversation reminded Yao Yiyi of the conversation between two half-grown girls sitting in the yard of her hometown in Youyang.
It is said that one can see through many things before dying, and it is indeed true.
Is it because time is running out and God can’t bear it?
Yao Yiyi didn’t know.
“You are philanthropic, but you actually love no one.
But I am really honored to be able to enjoy the shade under you and be covered by you.
Thank you. "
Yao Yiyi thanked him repeatedly.
If it weren't for Molan, even if she was reborn into the Sheng family, she would definitely not have lived such a wonderful, free, regret-free and meaningful life.
She might gradually sink into this ancient vortex, just like everyone else and the ignorant women she once criticized, and gradually live her life in the backyard and in the moral standards set by men.
She will become materialistic, vicious, and become just like here.
Is she really her then?
"Sister Molan, do you think people have souls after they die?
If so, I will pray for you.
You are so good, you deserve it...Long live forever..."
After saying this, Yao Yiyi was so tired that she could hardly breathe.
Molan saw this.
She raised her hand and closed Yao Yiyi's eyes.
She said, "Good night, Yao Yiyi."
After hearing these words, Yao Yiyi felt relieved and fell asleep with peace of mind and no regrets.
What? It turns out that Sister Molan knows everything.
It is good to know.
In this way, I will live my life with a clean conscience and never hide anything from you.
In this way, I am not afraid of death.
