New widow

Madam Feng Sheng did not speak, and the palace maid did not ask any more questions. After all, the palace maid knew clearly what should be asked and what should not be asked.

Suqiao returned to the prison and continued to live the same life as before. Suqiao was unwilling to ask what happened outside the cell. She practiced calligraphy and meditated every day. Suqiao felt that she had not been so peaceful and peaceful for a long time.

Zhang Qing was waiting for news from the court. Those joint memorials caused some controversy. When a mother is rejected by her father, should children be filial to their mother or their father? Of course, many people say that we should work hard to mend the rift between parents. Then some people refute, what if the father refuses to listen, or even the child commits suicide, and he cannot get his father's favor? There was a lot of discussion for a while. Zhang Qing knew these things and could not intervene. He could only wait patiently. Zhang Qing even wanted to think about how to go to the Nanyang Marquis Mansion and meet Su Du again. The two of them could talk about these things. What happened on the day.

But since he was brought in by the housekeeper last time, Zhang Qing has never seen the housekeeper again. I wonder if the housekeeper has also been locked up? After all, it is said that the Nanyang Marquis Mansion has already arranged a marriage for Su Du.

Zhang Qing is waiting hard, and Song Zhen is naturally waiting hard too. Even if he goes to prison, he can't find out what's going on. On this day, Song Zhen was still sighing in the room. Aunt Wu walked in with a very excited face: "Girl, girl, Shuntian Mansion sent someone to tell us to pick up Mrs. Kuang."

"What?" Song Zhen stood up and asked Nanny Wu with a look of disbelief. There were tears in the corners of Nanny Wu's eyes: "Yes, I really heard that they asked us to pick up Madam Kuang."

"I'll go right away." Song Zhen said and was about to change her clothes. Aunt Wu had already grabbed her hand: "If you want to go, you must ask Mrs. Wu first."

"No need to ask me, let's go together." Mrs. Song Wu walked in with a smile. Mother Wu had already smiled: "Yes, yes, it's all my fault. How could I have forgotten? Mrs. Wu is now I really want to go too."

With that said, Mother Wu went to prepare the carriage and horses. Mrs. Song Wu patted Song Zhen's hand: "Don't be anxious, it will take some time to prepare the carriage."

"When I thought about meeting Aunt Kuang, I was very happy. What happened, and how could it happen all of a sudden?" Song Zhen asked one question after another, and Mrs. Song Wu couldn't answer these questions. Just guessing with Song Zhen.

The prefect of Shuntian stood in front of Su Qiao: "I have been an official for almost thirty years, and I have seen quite a lot of weird things, but this one of yours is the weirdest."

"My lord, I don't know how to answer these words." Su Qiao already knew that she was going out, so her tone became much gentler. Magistrate Shuntian looked at Su Qiao: "Your Majesty, after issuing such an edict, it will probably be announced to the world. From now on, mother is as important as father."

As he said this, Magistrate Shuntian had a complicated expression. Ever since Emperor Wu issued an edict that everyone in the world should observe filial piety, the period of filial piety for the mother is the same as for the father, which is three years later. This may be the biggest thing. After all, everyone in the world is Acknowledge your father first, then your mother. The mother your father acknowledges is your mother. Some families often sell their concubines after they give birth to children. When these children grow up, they have to wait until their fathers die before they dare to find their biological mothers. Some don't even dare to look for them. After all, whoever their father says is their mother is their mother.

If according to the original rules, Mr. Kuang has married another Mrs. Li, then Mrs. Li is Suqiao's mother. However, Suqiao's complaint does not admit that Mrs. Li is her stepmother, but only admits that Mrs. Wan is her. Mother, and the emperor's edict said that parents are equally filial. Even animals know how to honor their mothers, let alone humans?

Mr. Kuang concealed the fact that he married Wan first and then Li, which was wrong. After that, he only asked for the title of Li several times and even forgot about Wan. Suqiao was a filial daughter who sought justice for her mother. She should have been commended to the world, but a filial daughter could not only be filial to her mother but not her father. Therefore, Suqiao's merits and demerits were balanced. Xu Suqiao was released from prison and remarried on her own. Mr. Kuang would never use it. , the Li family received the imperial edict and was granted the title of Wan family.

Su Qiao only smiled: "Father's essence and mother's blood, sir, if there is no mother who was pregnant for ten months, where would the child come from? If the father abandons his mother because he refuses to acknowledge his mother, how can the child forget it?" Mother’s nurturing grace.”

Magistrate Shuntian's lips parted and he was silent for a long time without saying anything. Then the government servant walked in and said, "Sir, the British Duke's carriage has arrived."

"Ms. Kuang, let's go." Magistrate Shuntian saluted Su Qiao, and Su Qiao returned the salute and walked out. Magistrate Shuntian looked at Su Qiao's back. It seemed that there was something wrong with Su Qiao, but Magistrate Shuntian couldn't figure out what was wrong. Could it be said that it is a matter of course that a father is as important as a mother?

Su Qiao walked out of the cell door and heard Song Zhen's voice: "Aunt Kuang, I miss you so much."

Mrs. Song Wu had already grabbed Song Zhen to prevent her from jumping out of the car: "This is on the street. Please calm down."

Song Zhen smiled, with a very bright smile on her face. Su Qiao also smiled at Song Zhen. Aunt Wu had already stepped forward: "Those things of yours..."

"No more, no more. Don't bring those bad luck home." Song Zhen said loudly. Aunt Wu thought about it and nodded: "It's just some clothes and bedding. Put them in the prison. Maybe Someone else can wear it.”

Su Qiao couldn't help but look back at the cell door, and without saying anything else, she got into the car with everyone.

"Aunt Kuang, do you know? Everyone is talking about this right now." In the carriage, Song Zhen kept chattering. Mrs. Song Wu's eyes were full of concern, but Mrs. Song Wu didn't ask Su Qiao, just looking at Su Qiao, Su Qiao already smiled: "I'm fine. In fact, I have thought about the last chance to argue, but I didn't use it."

"I knew you wouldn't be so reckless." Mrs. Song Wu's words were full of luck. Suqiao patted Mrs. Song Wu's hand gently: "Thank you very much. You are also very worried outside these days. "

"I don't worry." Song Zhen hugged Su Qiao's arm: "Really, I don't worry at all."

"The girl is really not worried, she just cried several times." Aunt Wu said with a smile. Song Zhen uttered an ouch and everyone laughed. Suqiao lifted the curtain of the carriage and the carriage was passing by the Nanyang Marquis Mansion.

From "The Married Woman" and "The Totalitarian Queen" to this article, I wrote the story of three girls who all sought justice for their mothers. The second grade of junior high school was the most intense. They faked their own deaths and even got the reputation of being rebellious, just to seek justice for their mothers. . In Qingyu's best way, after winning the world, everyone will agree with her justice for her mother. More than ten years later (the 11th year of Hou Mennu and the 13th year of Totalitarian Queen), when I asked my children to seek justice for their mother, my state of mind had changed dramatically in these ten years. I began to think about many alternatives. Even though the goals of the heroines have not changed, Suqiao, this child who was abandoned in the countryside and whose mother died young (although her mother died young in the second year of junior high school, was raised by golden branches and beautiful leaves, Qingyu and her mother depended on each other), she got the most from me. Concern is also an ordinary person. Under the heavy constraints, he strives to express his voice. Even if he dies, he still wants to seek justice for his mother and tell the world that these things are wrong.
