The Pearl of the Lady

Chapter 146 High Burning City Breaks the Dark Marriage (2)
"Father, mother, I'm afraid."

"Don't make a sound." With tears in their eyes, the people hid the children in rice jars and holes in the ground.

They can't hide all of them. If the Liz people can't find anything, they will search wildly instead, and the loss will be even greater.

The screams and howls became the music tonight, Xingzi looked at the world coldly, watching the joys and sorrows, the tragic state of the world.

The soldier came to report the news, but in just a few days, Gu Zhao and Princess Hua'an seemed to be several years old. Gu Zhao gritted his teeth and dealt with the court. cost.

His expression was frighteningly cold, and whoever he passed by when he went to court would shudder.

Princess Hua'an didn't show her face, and she had to comfort Gu Zhao every day. Only Ah Fu knew that her mother would stay in the third brother's yard for a long time every day. She relied on the fact that there was no body, and the possibility that her son might not be dead hope persists.

"Miss, the herald is here."

Ah Fu has not been able to fall asleep for the past few days. She has to comfort her mother and take over some housework. The baby fat on the girl's face quickly disappeared, her thin chin is pointed, and her eyes are black and blue.

"Call in, don't let mother see".Ah Fu thought for a while, then ordered in a low voice.

When she saw the herald, her eyes went dark. There was a white cloth strip tied around the man's arm, and Ah Fu tried his best to hold on to the table to stand still.

"what's up?"

The rumor made people bow their heads, "The body of General Gu of your residence has been found."

Ah Fu clasped the table tightly with his hands, "I see, you can go down."

"Don't tell mother about this." She didn't know that her face was full of tears, so she supported her safely, and Ah Fu gasped.

Outside the window, Princess Hua'an staggered two steps and fell unconscious.

Princess Hua'an was seriously ill. She had a low-grade fever all day long and lay on the bed drowsily, sometimes mumbling something.

Probably in the dream, her children were all well, healthy and happy.

The imperial doctor came again and again, and prescribed countless medicines for nourishing the mind. One said that the princess was in a hurry, and the other said that the princess's depression was difficult to dissipate. In short, it was a heart disease. Anyway, she could only take care of it slowly. Gradually, she The time of lethargy is getting longer and longer, and I don't have much energy when I wake up, and I can't drink the medicine.

Seeing her haggard like this, the queen shed tears from her heartache, held her hand and said, "Zi Xuan hasn't married yet, this child has ambitions in his heart, even though he has gone, as family members, we have to choose a good school for the child." Dear, in the future, one of his brother's children will be adopted by him, and the incense will continue."

Princess Hua'an's eyes rolled. She didn't really believe in these things, but now that she thinks about it, she thinks it makes sense. You can't let Zixuan lie down there alone. Although Ah Fu felt a little absurd, he was not willing to break his mother's hope.

Princess Hua'an became more energetic, so she asked people to collect unmarried women from the Chang'an family who had died young. There was a young daughter in the family who died of illness when she was 12 years old. When the little girl was alive, her talent and appearance were not bad. The Wu family also wanted to marry her daughter into a ghost marriage.

Princess Hua'an found a matchmaker. Although it was a ghost marriage, she thought that every step would be done according to the wedding ceremony when her son was still alive. Before the matchmaker was dispatched, someone came to her door.

"Ma'am, the eldest lady of the Yun family, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, is asking to see you."

"What's the matter? Isn't Ah Fu here?"

"Miss Yun said she wanted to see you, didn't she want to see the princess?"

Princess Hua'an frowned, but still said, "Call me in."

"I've met His Highness Princess Hua'an, please greet Your Highness." Yun Xiuyu saluted in a dignified way. She was wearing a white skirt, without a hair ornament on her head, and her figure was very thin.

"Get up, there are many affairs in the house, if you have anything to do, please tell me directly."

Yun Xiuyu bent down and bowed down, "The little girl is here only to ask Princess Hua'an to make the decision."

Princess Hua'an frowned again.

Her voice was very firm, her forehead was on the ground, she was full of pleadings and even begging, "My daughter and Gu Zixuan are in love with each other, and they have promised each other for life earlier, and I just ask Your Highness to preside over the marriage for the two of us."

With a word out, the room was silent.
