Reborn Di daughter seeks the world

Chapter 293 Marry someone who treats you wholeheartedly
The room fell silent instantly. The old man on the couch stared blankly at the front, tears streaming down his face, but stopped talking.

Ye Lingxi looked at the empress dowager's painful appearance, and knew that she was missing her daughter. To be honest, her face really looked like Princess Yaoguang.However, the Queen Mother's words seemed to reveal something related to the eldest princess.

However, Ye Lingxi didn't have time to think about it when Eunuch Xu's voice came from behind him, "Queen Mother, Princess Chongguang is here."

The queen mother came back to her senses in an instant, and seeing Ye Lingxi standing in front of her, a smile appeared on her face, "Xi'er, you are here." She wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, her eyes were dull.

Ye Lingxi heard the words, stepped forward, held the Queen Mother's hand, and said guiltily: "The imperial grandmother is ill, and I didn't stay with you properly. It's my fault."

"Silly girl, Aijia's illness has not lasted for a day or two. If you are confined to you every day because of Aijia's illness, Aijia will not feel well." The queen mother looked at Ye Lingxi lovingly, and she patted He clapped her hand, sighed and said, "Seeing you happy, Aijia is happier than anyone else."

"Yes, the princess is the queen mother's favorite. The queen mother only hopes that the princess will be happy, so how can she blame you?" Eunuch Xu said with a smile, but his eyes were full of worry when looking at the queen mother.

The Queen Mother glanced at Eunuch Xu and frowned, "Little Xu, you're the one who talks too much, hurry up and bring over the tremella and mung bean soup prepared for Xi'er. The weather is dry, so don't overheat Ai's baby."

"Yes, the servant obeys the order." Eunuch Xu said respectfully.

Watching Eunuch Xu leave the inner hall, Ye Lingxi felt an unusual atmosphere. The queen mother seemed to be much older than before, her hair was all white, her face was thin and sallow, without any blood, and the veins on the back of her hands were even more bulging. , which is not a good sign.

The doctor who treated the Empress Dowager was already the best doctor. If all this is useless, I'm afraid... there is no way to recover.

"Silly girl, Aijia knows what you're thinking. Aijia has already lived enough. I've already looked down on life and death. The only thing I can't worry about is you." The queen mother sighed. She had no children in her life. She went early again, and she sent a white-haired person to a black-haired person. No one can understand the pain.

"Grandmother, I don't allow you to say such things." Ye Lingxi said sadly, "You must live to be at least a hundred years old, and now you are only in your seventies, which is too early."

"Silly girl, what are you talking about? If Aijia really lives to be a hundred years old, he will really be immortal." The queen mother shook her head, a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes, "Aijia has also reached the age to go."

Hearing these words, Ye Lingxi's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the empress dowager's cloudy eyes, her heart suddenly sank.

The turbid eyes were majestic and condensed, which belonged exclusively to the most noble woman in Donghua.

"The Ai family knows that twisted melons are not sweet, but since you are here in Donghua, you must know how to protect yourself." The queen mother looked at Ye Lingxi who was sitting beside her, and sighed, "You girl, with your mother The same, both have a stubborn temper. Forget it, your mother is from Ai's family. In order to appease the aristocratic family, the late emperor soaked in the rain and dew in the harem, and also neglected the Ai family. With your mother, Aijia realized how stupid he was back then, and by the time Aijia understood the late emperor's affection, it was too late, and the late emperor had already gone away."

Ye Lingxi also knew something about the Empress Dowager and the late emperor. The late emperor was an ambitious emperor, but when he took over the throne, the aristocratic family was in power, and the imperial power was not concentrated, so although the late emperor married the woman he liked, However, he had to accept many daughters from aristocratic families as concubines.In order to balance the court, the first emperor naturally had to visit the harem, and this harem was not just Fengzao Palace.

At that time, the empress dowager, who was still a queen, was disheartened by the late emperor because of his affection, and only focused on the official affairs of the harem.The late emperor was naturally displeased when he was rejected by his own woman as an emperor, so the two of them became deadlocked.This lasted for 20 years, until Princess Yaoguang was born, the two reconciled as before, and then the late emperor favored the queen mother alone, but unfortunately, after only ten years, the late emperor left, before leaving, he was most worried It is the mother and daughter of the Queen Mother and the eldest princess.

However, there is a rumor that the reason why there were some offspring in the late emperor's harem was because the late emperor didn't want the empress dowager to be sad, so he didn't let the concubines get pregnant. In the end, the late emperor only had two sons and a daughter.

Some people say that the reason why the current emperor's mother left after giving birth to the emperor is because the former emperor left his mother to keep his son in order to raise him under the name of the queen mother.

But she didn't believe it. The age difference between Emperor Donghua and Princess Yaoguang was not small. At that time, the first emperor would not have thought that the queen mother would not be able to give birth to a son. After all, they were both young at that time, but Emperor Donghua might not have thought so.

"Although Xiaoliu's child is a bit dull, he is a steady child. Since he said he wants to protect you, he can't pretend." The queen mother sighed, "That is a poor child, if her mother is not so strong, He won't suffer as much."

Qin Jingyuan's mother?Ye Lingxi narrowed her eyes slightly. She had known Qin Jingyuan for so many years, but she rarely heard him mention his mother.Some people said that her mother was caught having an affair with someone and executed by the Holy Majesty.

But Concubine Rou didn't tell her that. She said that she was a very smart and wise woman, but she was also a woman with emotional cleanliness. She couldn't stand the emperor's half-heartedness, left her child and committed suicide.

Either way, it is painful for a child because of the mother's indifference.

"Aijia looks at Xiaoliu and he really likes you, although Aijia is also very strange." The queen mother suddenly smiled, "But you would never expect him to tell Aijia that he really wants to marry you, as if you It's like the brightest pearl in the world, when he talks about you, his expression reveals incomparable cherishment and prudence, even joy. Ai Jia thinks, it probably has deep roots of love."

Ye Lingxi's eyebrows twitched, she looked at the queen mother with some embarrassment, "Grandmother..." The corners of her mouth twitched tightly, Qin Jingyuan likes her?Why is everyone telling her that?Would that cold-hearted man like someone?

"The Ai family knows that you don't believe it. You are usually so clever, how can you be so slow when facing emotions." The Queen Mother sighed, worried about Qin Jingyuan's way of chasing his wife.

Ye Lingxi shook her head, she looked at the Queen Mother, and said in a deep voice: "Grandmother, I didn't mean to say something that made you unhappy, but Qin Jingyuan and I are really not what you think, maybe you don't know Qin Jingyuan at all. this person."

"The Ai family watched him grow up, so why don't you understand, but you, did you hear some message and misunderstood him?" The Queen Mother sighed and said, "Tell the Ai family honestly, are you talking to the Chu family? people got mixed up."

Ye Lingxi's heart skipped a beat, looking into the empress dowager's sharp eyes, she turned her head away.

"Silly girl, you..." The Queen Mother said helplessly, "The Ai family knew this would happen, no wonder you don't like Xiao Liu."

"Grandmother, I want to decide my marriage." Ye Lingxi suddenly raised her head and looked at the Queen Mother and said resolutely.

Make up your own mind? !A familiar scene appeared in the queen mother's mind. Qing'er told her the same way back then. She wanted to make decisions by herself, but what about the final result.

"Forget it, since you don't like Xiao Liu, the Ai family won't force you." The queen mother said suddenly, "The Ai family is also afraid that you and Xiao Liu will become enemies, but the Ai family wants to tell you that if you don't want to marry Xiao Liu Six, then leave Liyang City and never come back."

Ye Lingxi's eyelids twitched, and she looked at the Queen Mother suspiciously. Did she ask her to leave Liyang City? !

"If your mother had listened to Ai's family and left Liyang City back then, it would not have ended up like that." Speaking of sadness, the Queen Mother couldn't help crying.

Ye Lingxi looked at the Queen Mother and frowned slightly. Did the eldest princess die because she did not leave Liyang City?What does it mean?
"There have been a lot of rumors outside recently, and the Ai family knows that you also have a lot of questions in your heart." The queen mother wiped away her tears, looked at Ye Lingxi, and said in a low voice, "Your father is indeed not Ye Yuanheng, when your mother married Ye Yuanheng, Ye was Forced to be helpless, she already had you at that time. Because of this matter, Ai's family has been tolerant of Ye Yuanheng these years. The family should also thank him, without him, you would not return to Ai's side."

"Your mother fell in love with someone, and she always cared about that person in her heart. She didn't even want her family, and she didn't even want the empress of Aijia. In the end, it hurt you even more." The queen mother looked forward, and the gate of memory seemed to be opened. , she seemed unable to stop.

"An infatuated woman always does not have a good result. Before she died, Aijia sent someone to ask her if she had any regrets, but she said no regrets. Aijia asked her why she didn't leave, and she said she would use this method to protect That man. Aijia was almost stunned by her anger at that time, if that man really loved her, how could he ignore her all these years. "

"Every time the Ai family thinks of these things, I feel annoyed with her, but there is only one daughter in the Ai family, and she likes her, so what can the Ai family do?" When the Queen Mother said this, her brows and eyes were full of pain and helplessness, she looked at Ye Ye suddenly. Ling Xi, "Remember, if you want to marry, marry someone who likes you and treats you wholeheartedly. Aijia looks at you as a child who is not easy to be emotional. Emotionally, it will either be smooth sailing or a rough life. .”

Ye Lingxi lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "I haven't thought about this for a while, women don't have to depend on men to live, I..."

"Your mother also said the same thing, and the Ai family also said the same thing, but in the end..." The queen mother shook her head, probably women are so confident before they are not tempted, but once they are in love, all the beliefs in the past will be destroyed overthrow.

"Forget it, the Ai family thought that Xiaoliu was a good person, but you didn't like it. Now that you have made up your mind, the Ai family will not force you." The queen mother sighed, "When you leave Donghua, you will hold your Mother's token to find your father, you are his daughter after all, I heard that he has no children now, so I think he won't treat you badly, when the time comes, let him find an honest man for you, and you can live a stable life."

Ye Lingxi lowered her eyes, "Then who is my father?"
