Chapter 264 The Demon

Mother finally came to Luoyang, took a palace chariot, passed by the official post, and offered sacrifices along the way, compared to the fifth grade.

This is the reward for her faithful service these days, and she accepts it calmly, and doesn't feel that there is anything to be ashamed of.

But my mother didn't think so.

Wan'er had already chosen a place for her mother. Although it was not the most spacious place in the palace residence, it was the brightest place in the daytime and the quietest in the night. And the farthest one.The palace flattered her and arranged everything very properly, and she took care of it herself, so although this room is small, every thing is arranged according to ordinary palace people, but it is extremely comfortable.On the day when her mother arrived, she also specially reported to Empress Wu, went back to the city, and went to the palace gate to greet her in person. Empress Wu was in a very good mood, and upon hearing her mention, she gave her mother the same five-rank rule.Wan'er thought that her mother should be happy if she had worked so hard for so many years to get such a result.

But when her mother saw her, she had a cold expression on her face, and it was hard to say anything in front of people. When she arrived at the residence, she closed the door, and immediately said with a dark face: "Wan'er, tell me honestly, I am of the same fifth grade, I am how come?"

Wan'er looked at her mother in astonishment. Since she had to serve in front of the imperial court, her mother no longer had to do those menial jobs, and her diet and daily life were also very good-looking. The mother seemed to have returned to the original appearance of the vicissitudes of life old woman, her hair became more gray, her bun seemed to be sparse, her face was full of wrinkles, and she walked with a slightly dragon-like look.Looking at such a mother, she felt sad and puzzled. She leaned lightly on her side, took her hand, put it on her face, and said in a low voice: "When I came to pick up my mother, I asked the queen mother for leave. The queen mother said : "The wife and mother of Beijing officials who are above the fifth rank can still be granted gifts, why there is no such case for the internal officials." Therefore, the grace was bestowed on the Empress Dowager and the family of the former lady Aqing. As the magistrate of Shangxian County, A Niang is nothing more than a fifth rank without a title."

It's good not to explain, but when she explained, the mother became even more angry, slapped on the bed, and said sharply: "How did I teach you when you were selected into the Zichen Palace? How did you promise me at that time? It's only been a few years , you have been fascinated by these prosperity and wealth, have you forgotten how your eldest father and father died?"

Wan'er hurriedly said: "Mother, I haven't forgotten... It's just... It's just that the matter has come to this..." The matter has come to this, what can she do?Now not only is the life of her mother and her, but even the reputation of the Shangguan family has long been in the hands of others, and her grandfather and father are still charged with treason. Breaking out in a cold sweat, he let go of his mother's hand, slowly took a step away, knelt down on the mat, lowered his head, and murmured: "Mother, I...was wrong." It's not a big mistake to serve the enemy, it's a mistake to make people pinch She caught all the clues and didn't know it, not only didn't know it, but she was complacent about it——Wan'er felt more ashamed when she thought that she had even tried to get rid of Feng Xiaobao a while ago, she crawled up to her mother, fell on the ground, The trembling voice called out "Aniang" again.

The mother sighed and stretched out her hand. Although Empress Wu named her a talented person, she preferred her to dress up as a girl. Therefore, Wan'er always wore a low bun, and her mother put one hand on her head and stroked the back of her head. Holding her hand with the other hand, he signaled her to sit up straight, but Wan'er was still a little unwilling, so her mother stroked her face again, and forced her to stand up, saying: "You know you're wrong, it's not too late " Paused, then said: "I didn't ask you to take revenge... It's just that the court is a place where people's hearts are treacherous and the future is unpredictable. You were deeply trusted by the late emperor, once offended, you will die in an instant, your family will be destroyed, and your son will not survive. With your current status, how is it compared to your elder father? With the generosity and kindness of the late emperor, compared to the current one..." She pointed out Pointing to Xi Mian, he curled his lips half in fear and half in contempt: "...So what if you are gloomy and jealous? I saw the expression on your face when you came to see me today, and your proud attitude is even better than your elder father worshiping the prime minister. At that time——did you think that if you become a small talent, you can live in peace and enjoy wealth forever?"

Wan'er had already been taught awe-inspiringly, but when she heard the word "gloomy and jealous", she unconsciously wanted to refute, but after thinking about it, she swallowed her rebuttal and bowed her head in shame: "Yes, I can't think too long , and made my mother worry."

When her mother saw that she was being taught, her face became more relaxed, but her mouth became more severe: "The queen mother is in court, and the situation is even more different than before. When you are in front of the queen mother, you should be more respectful and cautious in your thoughts and actions. Among peers, Don't offend, don't be close friends, if you have a request, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether you are high or low, do your best, and if it is related to the situation, you must never agree to each other easily, be cautious in words and deeds, respect etiquette and righteousness, form good relationships, and be good to yourself , This is the long-term way." When Wan'er bowed her head again and pleaded guilty again and again, Fang held her in his arms and sighed softly: "You can stay in front of that person for so long, relying on your talent It's not that A Niang is unhappy to be favored. It's just that your A Niang is at this age, without her husband and family, and being imprisoned in a deep palace. The only hope...is you. Don't worry me."

Wan'er's eyes were sore, she leaned her head in her mother's arms, and sobbed aloud. When her mother saw her crying, she laughed instead, patted her on the back, wiped away the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief, and asked her After a few words about the recent situation, I took a closer look at all the things in the room, even the silk and satin cloth that Wan'er specially brought, and praised Wan'er for her good eyesight, and the things she chose were both practical and elegant.

Seeing that her mother was happy, Wan'er gradually shed her tears, and accompanied her for a while to arrange the arrangement. She was afraid that her mother would be hungry on the way, and was about to ask someone to pass the meal earlier, but she heard the commotion outside the door. A dozen or so servants came in a file, and when they saw Wan'er, they smiled: "The queen mother ordered to give Zheng Niangzi food. It just so happens that I go back to the palace to handle business, so I will go through this." , twelve pieces in one color, four pieces in each piece, all are palace banquet dishes, porridge, pancakes and rice are even more useful. , Seeing this, I still couldn't help but show a shy look, took Wan'er by the sleeve, and asked her: "Wan'er, is this gentleman...?"

Wan'er bowed to Gao Jingang, and said: "This high envoy from the Flying Dragon Stable respects King Kong and is the eldest son of Gao Weng's family." With lingering fears in her heart, she spoke more modestly than usual, Gao Jingang hurriedly shook his hands and said with a smile: "Annu in the idle stables, how can I respect the lady of the Shangguan." He came to salute his mother again, but the mother hurriedly avoided it, took a lot of copper coins, handkerchiefs, sachets and other things from her own bag and distributed them to the little servants, and took out a bunch The pearls were stuffed in Gao Jingang's hands: "It's the first time I've seen it, and I don't know what Xiaolang-jun likes. These beads are not very expensive, but the colors are still neat. Xiaolang-jun, let's play with them."

Gao Jingang refused, but he had already taken the string of beads in his hand. He opened his hand a little and saw that all the beads were round and white. He smiled more and more cheerfully. After thinking about my wife a few times, my grandfather thought that although we are family relatives, there are many things before the imperial court, and I can't leave Shangguan's wife for a moment. Anyway, the lady also has a ten-day rest. The relationship between mother and daughter will not be too late to be described in the future. The next official sent a message, please make it easy for your wife, it's better to go back earlier."

Wan'er was unwilling in her heart, so she turned to look at her mother, but her mother said solemnly: "Since that's the case, Wan'er should go back earlier - listen to what mother says."

Wan'er's eyes were sore again, she lowered her head slightly, said "Mm" meekly, bid farewell to her mother, and went out with Gao Jingang.
