Chapter 804 Ye's Death (2)
After Yuxi left, Qiushi asked again: "Why did you tell Yuxi just now that you gave birth to a boy that day? Do you have evidence?"
Ye has no evidence, if she had evidence, she would not beg Han Yuxi: "Mother, everyone said that I was pregnant with a son, and I have a feeling that it is a son."
Lu Xiu couldn't help but interjected: "Just now the princess said that the child is a child of filial piety. If it is conceived during filial piety, then the child should not be kept." If this child stays, it will not only ruin Han Jianming's future, but also This kid has no future.
Mrs. Ye didn't seem to hear Lu Xiu's words, so she just said to Mrs. Qiu, "Mother, I don't have any extravagant hopes. I just want to know if the child is still alive."
Qiu shook her head and said, "I can't do anything about it." Even if he asked his son, he wouldn't tell her, otherwise he wouldn't have kept it from her all these years.
Seeing that Qiu's family can't count on it, Ye's is a little desperate. Finally, his eyes fell on Qiqi. Holding Qiqi's hand, Ye Shi said: "Qiqi, when you find your brother, you must take him to Mother's grave to show Mother."
This is why Yu Xi is unwilling to tell that the child is still alive, because Mrs. Ye is a pushy person who doesn't know what is enough to stop. Tell her that the child is still alive, and she will beg to see the child before she dies. Maybe after seeing that child, she will beg her to let the child recognize his ancestors. At that time, it will be endless, how could Yu Xi follow her wishes.
Qi Qi asked in disbelief, "Mother, do I really have a younger brother?"
Mrs. Ye said with certainty: "Yes, you have a younger brother. He is still alive, but he was hidden by your father. Qi Qi, you must find him and bring him to see your mother." , It is also good to see one side after death.
Lu Xiu didn't wait for Qiqi to speak, she said: "Sister-in-law, aren't you embarrassing the child?" If you can't embarrass Yuxi, you will start embarrassing Qiqi. This child is a child of filial piety, even if he is alive, it is impossible to see the light. Otherwise, the uncle would not be able to hide the child, and the princess would not keep silent, because this child cannot recognize his ancestors and return to his clan.
Mrs. Ye ignored Lu Xiu, just looked at Qiqi and said, "Qiqi, you must promise mother, otherwise mother will die with peace."
Qiqi cried and said: "Mother, don't worry, if my younger brother is really alive, I will beg my father and bring my younger brother to see you when the time comes." You can't do it blatantly, but you can do it secretly.
Facts have proved that Qiqi is so young and thinks things too simply, this child can't see the light at all. Now that Han Jianming has finally climbed to a high position, if this handle is caught, even Yuxi will not be able to protect him. Therefore, he will not tell Qiqi where this child is, let alone let this child know his true identity.
Mrs. Ye nodded and said: "Okay..." Before he finished speaking, his hand gradually dropped.
Seeing that Ye Shi closed her eyes, Lu Xiu stepped forward and put her hand under Ye Shi's nose. After a while, Lu Xiu whispered to Qi Qi: "Your mother has gone..."
Qiqi burst into tears: "Mother, mother..."
When Yuxi returned to the palace, she received the news of Mrs. Ye's death. Without even moving her brows, Yu Xi went back to her study and continued to discuss matters with the ministers.
A few days ago, the doctor said that Ye's time was not long, so the coffin and clothes were all prepared. Now that Mrs. Ye is gone, Lu Xiucao didn't panic when she persisted.
In the evening, Yuxi talked about this to Yunqing: "It's strange to say, it's been fine for a few years, why did you realize that the child was swapped before dying?" If Mrs. Ye had doubts before, she would definitely I'll send someone privately to look for it. If Mrs. Ye went to find someone, she would definitely not be able to hide it from her. But these years, Ye's silence shows that she has never doubted it before.
Yun Qing thought for a while and said: "People may become smarter before they die!"
Yuxi snorted and said, "All?" as if he had experienced it before. But Yu Xi quickly remembered the dream Yun Qing had, and couldn't help laughing.
Yun Qing didn't hide it from Yu Xi, and said: "In that dream, I never thought that there was something wrong with the medicine, and I never suspected Liu Shi. But when I was about to die, it seemed that someone told me that suddenly After realizing it, there must be something wrong with the medicine, and besides Liu, there will be no other person who has tampered with it."
These days Yunqing has slowed down, and he no longer shy away from things in his dreams. The first few days really frightened him enough, and he felt uneasy when he couldn't see familiar people.
Yuxi said: "That's pretty amazing." When she died in her previous life, she had no idea. Well, exactly, she died with resentment in her heart.
Speaking of which, when I first came back to life, I often had nightmares, always dreaming of being burned to death. Now, I haven't had this nightmare for many years.
Yun Qing said: "I won't go to Mrs. Ye's funeral. You can go there when the time comes, and all the ceremony will be fine." With Yun Qing's current status, if he doesn't attend Mrs. Ye's funeral, there will be no one there. Say what.
Yuxi nodded, and said with some emotion: "Actually, if you want me to say, my sister-in-law really doesn't hesitate. She has been married to the Han family for four years and hasn't given birth. My mother didn't say a single harsh word, and my elder brother didn't let the concubine stop. I bought Bizitang. I didn’t blame her even after I found out that her body suffered from cold and it was not good for her to give birth. She finally got pregnant with Qiqi and had a hard time giving birth, but the mother and daughter were in a bad health. My elder brother only married the second wife for the sake of children. But elder brother also treats her kindly, elder brother Chang took her to be raised by her as soon as he was born, it can be said that neither mother nor elder brother has ever treated her badly."
Yun Qing has no feelings for Mrs. Ye, and is unwilling to talk more about her: "So when you marry a wife, you should marry a virtuous one. In the future, you must choose a wife carefully for Brother Hao and the others. You can't choose someone who doesn't know the importance of acting without a brain."
Yuxi nodded and said: "It's natural." This daughter-in-law has never been chosen, and the husband and wife quarrel three times a day and quarrel three times a day, and she has never lived a peaceful life.
Yun Qing hummed, and told Yu Xi about another matter: "I'm going to the racecourse in Tong County in two days, and the round trip is estimated to take five days."
Yu Xi frowned and said: "No, you are still taking medicine, how can you go away. You can't worry about leaving the racecourse, just send someone reliable to go there."
Yunqing knows that there are other things to talk about, but once it concerns his body, Yuxi will not back down half a step. Yun Qinggang also asked tentatively, seeing that Yuxi disagreed, he didn't insist, but asked: "Then who do you think is appropriate to send?"
Yuxi said: "You decide for yourself." It's not a big deal, so she won't get involved.
Yun Qing thought for a while and said: "I want Si Bonian to go." After a pause, Yuxi said: "Si Bonian and I have been to the racecourse many times, and I am familiar with the racecourse. Feel more at ease."
Yu Xi was so perceptive, she asked after hearing this: "Do you want to transfer Si Bonian to serve in the army?"
Yun Qing nodded and said: "Si Bonian has been with me for a long time, and it's time to let him out. If he stays with me all the time, he will be buried."
Yu Xi didn't object, but said: "You'd better ask Si Bonian about this first, maybe he doesn't want to go to the army?" Like Xu Wu, he would rather stay in the palace than go to the army. Everyone has their own aspirations, and what they think is good is not necessarily what the other party wants. Therefore, it is appropriate to ask the parties concerned.
Yun Qing nodded and said: "Okay, I'll ask him tomorrow."
On the second day, Yunqing asked Si Bonian what he meant. Si Bonian would rather go to the army, as it would give his wife and children a good future if he went to the army. Sibonian said: "My lord, next year we will attack the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, and I want to go and do my part." Only by fighting can one accumulate military merits and be promoted.
Yun Qing nodded in agreement.
On the second day, Yuxi took Zaozao and brother Hao to the Han Mansion to express their condolences.
As soon as they entered the mourning hall, they saw Brother Chang, Qiqi and others kneeling in the mourning hall and burning paper money. Brother Chang and Brother Hua are relatively better, but Qiqi is crying like a tearful person.
Seeing Yuxi in a daze, Qiqi forgot to cry. She actually wanted to ask Yuxi about her brother, but she knew very well in her heart that even if she asked Yuxi, she would not tell her. Not only that, but it will arouse Yuxi's disgust.
Who is Yuxi, just looking at Qiqi's appearance, she can tell what she is thinking. Yuxi said: "Pay attention to your body."
Hearing this, Qiqi burst into tears: "Auntie..." She thought that after yesterday's incident, Yuxi would not give her a good face, but she did not expect that Yuxi's attitude towards her was still the same as before.
When Yuxi came in, all the other guests were waiting outside, and there were no other people in the mourning hall. Yuxi said: "I know you have many doubts in your heart, but there are some things that you can't and can't say."
Qi Qi looked sad, and asked: "Auntie, can you really not let me know?" That was her own brother, and she wanted to see him very much.
Yuxi shook her head and said, "I can't."
Lu Xiu personally sent Yuxi away, and on the way Lu Xiu said softly: "Qiqi is a pitiful child, my sister-in-law forced her to find the child before she died, and asked Qiqi to bring the child to her grave. Qiqi If Qi doesn't agree, she just grabs Qi Qi's hand and doesn't close her eyes." She even cheated her daughter when she was dying, it's unlucky to have such a mother.
Yu Xi said lightly: "It's useless if she persecutes her any more. Big brother won't tell Qiqi the whereabouts of that child."
Lu Xiu's heart was overwhelmed: "Princess, is that child still alive?" In fact, judging from Yuxi's attitude yesterday, she guessed that the child was still alive. Before, she thought that the child was gone!
Yuxi hummed and said: "He's still alive, but no one knows where this child is now except the eldest brother. I think even that child doesn't know his identity!"
Lu Xiu sighed and said, "This has made..."
Yuxi looked up at the sky, the sky was blue and blue without a single cloud: "Brother is determined not to let him recognize his ancestors, and saving his life is already the biggest concession of Big Brother."
Lu Xiu didn't know what to say.
Yuxi said: "Second sister-in-law, you have to take care of this place inside and out. You have to pay attention not to get tired." All gone.
Lu Xiu said: "Princess, don't worry about me, I will take care of myself." Tired is a little tired, but this is also the last time. With Mrs. Ye gone, I don't have to worry about making any more messes in the future.
Yuxi thought for a while and said: "Brother told me before that if sister-in-law passed away, he would stay for three years. In these few years, the Han family still needs you to take care of it."
Lu Xiu was a little surprised. She didn't expect Han Jianming to say that he would not marry within three years: "Princess, will the mother go to Jiangnan next spring?"
Yuxi nodded and said: "This will not change. As for whether Brother Chang and Qiqi will follow, I don't know yet." It all depends on Han Jianming's intention.
Lu Xiu nodded and said, "I see." This meant that even if Qiu Shi left, she would not be able to go to Shu. Although I have guessed this for a long time, I still feel a little lost in my heart.
Seeing this, Yuxi said to Lu Xiu: "Second brother will lead troops to attack Yunnan next year, and he will come back after the battle is over." Where Han Jianye will be transferred after the battle is temporarily unknown.
Seeing Lu Xiu's worried face, Yu Xi said: "Second brother is the leading general, he doesn't need to go to the battlefield in person, and his life will not be in danger." The most dangerous in the army is actually the forward. However, the Vanguard Battalion is also the easiest place to make military achievements.
After sending Yuxi away, Lu Xiu went back to continue her work. This busy, busy until midnight.
Hearing that Qiqi was still in front of the mourning hall and hadn't eaten all day, Lu Xiu asked someone to cook a bowl of plain noodles and send it over.
Alan came back quickly and said: "Madam, the eldest girl said she has no appetite and can't eat."
Lu Xiu said: "This child, how can the body bear it so much?"
As soon as the words were finished, the servant girl came over and said: "Ma'am, the eldest girl fainted in front of the mourning hall." Ye's sickness began to take care of her by Qi Qi's side, and she never had a good rest. Now I have experienced the blow of losing my mother, and my body, which is hardened without eating or sleeping all day and night, can't bear it.
Opening her eyes and looking at the strange room, Qi Qiyi felt a little dazed for a moment. Soon, she came to her senses: "Aren't I in the mourning hall? Why are I here?"
Shi Qin said: "Girl, you passed out in the mourning hall. It was the second lady who sent you here."
Qiqi wanted to get up, but found that her whole body was weak: "Shi Qin, help me up, I'm going to the mourning hall."
Shi Qin cried and said: "Girl, you don't eat or sleep like this, how can your body bear it? If Da Furen sees you like this in heaven, she will definitely be very sad."
While struggling to get up, Qi Qi said, "I can't let my mother be alone in the mourning hall."
Shi Qin hurriedly said: "Girl, there are still the second young master and the others in the mourning hall! Girl, even if you don't sleep, you still have to eat. Girl, if you fall ill, you won't even be able to go to the funeral of the eldest lady. "
When Qiqi heard this, she became honest. She is mother's only daughter, if she doesn't even show up for the funeral, wouldn't it be unfilial: "Go get me something to eat."
Shi Qin quickly brought Qi Qi a large bowl of red dates and millet porridge, served with two vegetarian dishes.
While eating, Qi Qi asked, "Where's Auntie?" She had been awake for such a long time, but Auntie didn't show up, which was a bit abnormal.
Shi Qin said cautiously: "When the girl was in a coma, the second lady was by her side, but was persuaded by the young master to go back and rest."
After Mrs. Ye passed away, Jia Chang and Jia Hua had to keep watch, and Jia Shun followed the housekeeper to take care of the outside affairs. When he came back and saw Lu Xiu's exhausted appearance, he advised her to go back and rest. Seeing that Lu Xiu was unwilling, Jiashun lost his temper. This corresponds to that sentence, whoever's parents feel distressed.
Lu Xiu couldn't hold back her son, and saw that Qiqi's life was not in danger, so she went back to rest. Before leaving, he told the servant girl to call Qi Qi if she woke up. But when she really fell asleep, even if Qiqi woke up, the maid beside her wouldn't dare to wake her up.
Qiqi lowered her head and didn't speak. (to be continued)
