Chapter 286 You are my god (17)
Princess Mingzhu was waiting for her god to come and save her in the palace. In the square palace, Princess Mingzhu felt suffocated. Everyone was cold and indifferent, and there was no warmth in the general's mansion.
Princess Mingzhu wanted Anyou very much, but the queen mother asked her to pray in the Buddhist temple and would not let her go out. The queen mother would not let her go back to the general's mansion, which made Princess Mingzhu very distressed.
Every time a maid came to the Buddhist temple to deliver food, Princess Mingzhu would kowtow and beg the maid.
"Please, can you let me go out to find Anyou?"
"I'll give you money, can you let me go out?"
"I want to find my brother. Where is he? Without me by his side, my brother will be very sad."
"..."
Seeing a princess kneeling and kowtowing to them, the maids were so scared that they turned pale and knelt down and kowtowed, asking the princess not to embarrass them.
But as time went on, this scene had to be played out every day, and these palace maids got used to Princess Mingzhu kneeling and knocking her head, and even showed contempt in their eyes. She
was still a princess, but she kowtowed to them like a slave, and kept talking about General An, General An, and always talking about men. She was so shameless.
Her brother was obviously staying well in the palace, but she seemed to have done something to her brother, as if this palace was a scary place. The
Queen Mother asked Princess Mingzhu to pray for her deceased parents and relatives in the Buddhist temple, but Princess Mingzhu cried all day long, covering her heart with her hands, and her excessive grief made the Queen Mother very irritated.
The Queen Mother did not have much contact with Princess Mingzhu before. After a brief contact from Yunzhou to Jingcheng, Mingzhu was packed and sent to the General's Mansion.
So every time Princess Mingzhu saw the Queen Mother, she would kneel on the ground with a plop, and then kowtow, not afraid of the pain, and then she would say something with tears in her eyes, "Queen Mother, you are so kind, so noble and kind, you must have experienced such an unforgettable love, blah blah, and then she would cry and say with a bitter face that she should go out to find General An."
The Queen Mother was almost having a heart attack because of Mingzhu, especially when Mingzhu would pull her skirt every time she spoke, looking up at her, with an extremely humble look, as if Princess Mingzhu would cry if she said something more serious.
There was no royal dignity at all, which made the Queen Mother so angry that she directly locked Mingzhu in the Buddhist hall. When she heard Princess Mingzhu saying "Anyou" all the time, the Queen Mother felt that the General's Mansion was worthy of death.
Ning Shu and the old lady were summoned into the palace by the Queen Mother. As soon as they paid their respects, they heard the Queen Mother roaring, and she scolded and punished Ning Shu and the old lady.
The old lady and Ning Shu were crawling on the ground. The old lady's body was shaking. Ning Shu saw sweat on her forehead.
Ning Shu pursed her lips and said nothing. She crawled on the ground and listened to the Queen Mother's meaning that An You intended to abduct Princess Mingzhu in order to get close to the powerful.
The old lady's forehead was covered with more cold sweat, and the clothes on her back were soaked with cold sweat. When the queen mother finished speaking, Ning Shu spoke up, "Queen Mother, please forgive me. Since Princess Mingzhu came to the general's mansion, I have regarded Princess Mingzhu as my own daughter, and my husband has treated Princess Mingzhu with courtesy. It may be that Princess Mingzhu lost her relatives, and it was An You who saved her, so she relied on An You a little, but she definitely didn't have such a bold idea of disobeying."
The queen mother was also very angry about Princess Mingzhu's crying. Now she vented her anger and saw the old lady kneeling on the ground, knocking her head on the ground. She looked very pitiful. Besides, An You fought for the country, and he couldn't let his subjects down. She said, "I hope so. After Princess Mingzhu is out of mourning, I will arrange a marriage for her." "
Thank you for your forgiveness, Queen Mother." Ning Shu kowtowed.
The queen mother rubbed her forehead and waved to Ning Shu and the old lady. Ning Shu helped the old lady out of the palace. When getting on the carriage, the old lady staggered twice. Fortunately, Ning Shu supported her and prevented her from falling off the carriage.
After returning to the general's mansion, the old lady rested first, and then Hualili fell ill. The old lady was so sick that she was about to be unable to get up. An You then remembered his mother and knelt in front of the old lady and cried and confessed.
The old lady said bluntly: "The queen mother will not agree to your affairs. When Princess Mingzhu goes out to mourn, the queen mother will arrange a marriage. The queen mother already thinks that you have seduced Princess Mingzhu, and the whole general's mansion will be punished."
"No, Princess Mingzhu and I are truly in love. Is she going to marry someone else?" An You's eyes were a little straight.
The old lady's face was ashen, and her complexion became more serious. "I will never agree to you two, unless I die."
An You's expression was extremely painful, his eyes were red, and he gasped for breath. Finally, he asked: "Mingzhu, Mingzhu...is she doing well?"
"Of course she is doing well. She should be a princess with luxurious clothes and delicious food." The old lady said with a breath.
Ning Shu was standing next to him like an outsider, watching her husband suffer and beg for another woman.
Emma, I feel so happy to see you suffer. An
You knelt in front of the old lady and said, "I will give up Princess Mingzhu."
The old lady's face relaxed, and she seemed to be much lighter and fell asleep.
Ning Shu and An You left the room. An You, who was walking in front, stopped and turned to look at you. Ning Shu said, "Are you satisfied now?"
Ning Concubine almost laughed and said dignifiedly, "My husband, I don't know what you are talking about. I am not dissatisfied. I just want a stable life, the stability of the general's mansion, the safety of my children, and a place to settle down."
An You snorted coldly, turned around and left without saying a word. Since then, he has never entered Ning Shu's yard again.
Ning Shu went to see the sick An Lingyun. An Lingyun was still listless. When she saw Ning Shu, she called her mother listlessly. Ning Shu just told her to have a good rest.
The next day, An You proposed to go to the battlefield. The old lady sighed and said nothing, which meant she agreed.
Ning Shu rolled her eyes. Fighting at this time was clearly a way of avoiding emotions. He didn't have a calm mood to fight. The battlefield was changing rapidly. How could such an irrational An You be qualified to fight?
This was irresponsible to the soldiers and the country. Ning Shu had fought in a war and knew too well the influence of a general on the entire battlefield. No wonder An You lost the battle in the end.
An You told his family and set out for the battle at a rapid speed the next day. Ning Shu went to see An You off. Seeing him wearing armor and riding on horseback, he looked very heroic.
No wonder Princess Mingzhu kept calling him a god and a master. An You was really charming.
