Only seven days left to live? She goes crazy and kills

Yan Yushu is 22 years old this year and has two children.

She gave birth to a daughter in the autumn of the year before last. At that time, Yan Donghuang was still on the battlefield. When he came back, he gave the little one a set of longevity locks made of pure gold and a set of gold bowls and chopsticks.

Since then, Yan Donghuang has been with Yan Yushu less than three times in total.

First, because she was in confinement, she couldn't see the wind and couldn't ask her out. Second, because she gave birth to a daughter, her in-laws didn't seem very happy, and Yan Yushu's life was not so free.

Even after the confinement, she rarely left the house.

Third, Yan Yushu herself was very satisfied with the status quo and didn't want to anger her mother-in-law and husband.

At that time, Yan Donghuang couldn't understand why she, a princess, had to look at the faces of her mother-in-law and husband. Although there was still a marquis in Pingyang Marquis's Mansion, there were not many important officials in the court, and there was almost no real power. The family was not very wealthy. Why should she suffer such a cowardly humiliation?

But now she understands everything.

A princess without the support of the royal family is nothing in the eyes of her in-laws.

Yan Donghuang still holds the military power, and the old lady of the Sheng family dares to set rules for her, let alone Yan Yushu, a poor princess without a backer?

Yan Ming had said that he treated them as his own sisters, but the fact was that he never took any action to show it, and let them suffer in their husband's family and ignored it.

So relying on others will eventually lead to disappointment.

It is better to rely on yourself than on anyone else.

A person walked slowly in the yard, wearing a light-colored plain skirt, a simple hairpin on her head, a gentle and beautiful face, and a demure temperament all over her body.

Yan Donghuang ordered someone to make tea.

Yan Yushu stepped over the threshold, signaling the two maids to stay outside. She entered the room alone, walked to the window and looked at Yan Donghuang: "Donghuang."

"Sit down." Yan Donghuang was not surprised by her arrival, just raised his hand to signal, "The emperor asked you to be a lobbyist?"

Yan Yushu hummed: "Li, the general manager beside the emperor, came to see me and said that you misunderstood the emperor and privately mobilized troops to involve treason. The emperor and the queen mother were shocked. They said that Sheng Jingan poisoned you and they had no idea."

Yan Donghuang looked indifferent: "Do you believe them?"

Yan Yushu was silent for a moment: "The emperor used to treat us like his own sisters. Among the princes, he was the only one who did not despise our origins, and never hated me because I was raised by the queen."

Yan Donghuang drank a sip of tea in silence, his face did not show joy or anger.

"Donghuang, Sheng Jingan is wrong to harm you. The emperor has ordered the confiscation of the Duke's Mansion and said that if you are willing, he will immediately send the Imperial Guards to take Sheng Jingan and his family to Caishikou to be beheaded in public and give you an explanation."

Yan Dong said indifferently: "The Duke's Mansion is under my control. I can kill Sheng Jingan at any time if I want to. He doesn't need to worry about it."

"Donghuang, you have always been protecting the Yong Dynasty. Do you want to watch the country destroyed in your hands?" Yan Yushu pursed her lips and looked at her anxiously. "Once the civil strife begins, only the people will suffer. I don't want to see the two people I care about most turn against each other, and I don't want to see the Yong Dynasty Falling into civil strife. "

"I want to ask you a question first." Yan Donghuang looked up at her, his tone light, "How can you be sure that this matter has nothing to do with him?"

Yan Yushu said subconsciously: "He can't do such a thing-"

Yan Donghuang sneered: "So there is no basis, just relying on trust?"

Yan Yushu choked and nodded: "Yes."

"He was good to us back then, but I have returned the favor to him." Yan Donghuang picked up the teacup, lowered his eyes and took a sip, "When my father was dying, he asked me who was more suitable to be the emperor, and I recommended him. "

Is there anything more important than the country in this world?

Yan Yushu frowned: "Since you recommended him, shouldn't you trust him more?"

"People's hearts are fickle." Yan Donghuang looked indifferent, "Or you can say that some people are born good at disguise."

"Donghuang--"

"You helped me back then, so I won't hurt you." Yan Donghuang promised, "You live your life peacefully, I can guarantee that Pingyang Marquis Mansion can continue to be smooth."

"You and the emperor have become enemies, how can I be smooth?" Yan Yushu's eyes were red, trying to persuade her to stop, "Donghuang, I... I really don't believe that the emperor will hurt you, you give him a chance, let him investigate the truth, okay?"

Yan Donghuang asked her: "You haven't finished the confinement yet?"

Yan Yushu was stunned.

"Why would Prince Consort Chen agree to let you come?"

"You led the troops to search the Chu family, and the Marquis' Mansion was shrouded in a dark cloud all day. They couldn't even eat, so how could they care about me, a princess in confinement?" Yan Yushu smiled bitterly, "The Marquis asked me to ask you for mercy, see if you can let the Chu family go."

Mrs. Chu was born in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, and is the aunt of the current Pingyang Marquis.

When Pingyang Marquis' father was still alive, Mrs. Chu relied on her brother's repeated arrangements and surrender to marry into the Chu family. Now, Pingyang Marquis' Mansion needs to rely on the Chu family's power and in-laws in the court to have a place in the circle of nobles.

Once the Chu family is in trouble, this in-law relationship will be broken, and the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion will have no room for recovery, unless the son can pass the imperial examination when he grows up, but that will take at least twenty years.

Pingyang Marquis can't wait that long.

Yan Donghuang turned his head and looked out the window, with a bit of coldness in his eyes.

People do change.

Not to mention Yan Ming, who sits on the throne, even Yan Yushu, who is married and raising children, may not be the same as she was back then.

"How have you been doing in Pingyang Marquis's Mansion these years?"

This is the second time Yan Donghuang asked this question.

The last time she asked, Yan Yushu said that she was living a good life and was very satisfied with her current living conditions, so Yan Donghuang did not ask any more questions.

But today she still wanted to ask.

Because Yan Yushu's haggard and depressed complexion between her eyebrows and eyes really couldn't prove that she was living a good life.

Yan Yushu lowered her eyes and stared at the teacup in front of her. After a while, she said: "Before my father passed away, I was raised by the queen. No matter whether she was good to me or not, I am nominally the queen's legitimate daughter."

Yan Donghuang understood what she meant.

Yan Yushu is a legitimate princess raised by the queen. In the eyes of many people, she is a member of the queen and the former prince.

The person who ascended the throne now is not the former prince, but Yan Ming, and the person sitting on the queen mother's seat is not the former queen, but the former Defei.

The royal concubines are all mortal enemies, and so are the princes.

After the former empress and the crown prince were deposed, Yan Yushu's identity became very sensitive. Because she was a girl, the emperor was tolerant and generous, and loved her as his own sister.

But these were all words, and there was no actual action.

From the civil and military officials in the court to the palace servants, who is not good at guessing the emperor's mind?

Who can't see whether the emperor really loves Princess Fengyang or just perfunctorily ignores her?

At the moment when the former empress was deposed, Yan Yushu had completely lost her backer.

Yan Donghuang's voice was indifferent: "When I asked you before, you said that your mother-in-law and husband treated you well. Now I want to ask you again, are they really good to you?"

Yan Yushu's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, and her voice was low: "I now have both sons and daughters, sitting in the position of the mistress of Pingyang Hou, what does it matter if they are good or not?"
