After rebirth, I made the princes cry

After becoming Jiang Tai's concubine, her father was granted an official position, a very low one with no real power. She was not happy about it because she felt guilty towards Jiang Tai.

She will be grateful for any kindness others show her, even if it does not meet her expectations.

But she had already received the favor from Queen Wen and could not give anything in return to Jiang Tai. At that time, she was pregnant. She felt relieved and thought that leaving an offspring for Jiang Tai was somewhat of a compensation to Jiang Tai.

Wen told her that His Majesty would not kill the eldest prince.

She thought that as long as Jiang Tai did not harbor any rebellious intentions, she and her family would be able to survive in the cracks, and perhaps she would be able to live up to anyone's expectations.

What a naive idea! It is impossible for her to take all the good things in the world.

"Jiang Lina did not succeed. It was Jiang Tai who stood up to protect my brother. My brother eventually married my sister-in-law. My brother did not know that I obeyed Yu Wenshi's orders. My brother was grateful to Jiang Tai and worked for him wholeheartedly. During that time, I was pregnant and did not pay attention to many things.

My sister-in-law was beaten to death by Jiang Lina. She couldn't make my brother surrender, so she couldn't bear to see him happy. Jiang Xiongying knew very well about Jiang Lina's evil deeds, but Jiang Lina was his biological daughter. In order to force Jiang Lina to obey his arrangement and marry into the Tudong Party, Jiang Xiongying not only protected Jiang Lina, he also promised Jiang Lina to execute my parents and brother.

Jiang Tai told me that he would avenge me sooner or later.

I was too embarrassed to ask Jiang Tai for help, so I secretly asked Wen for help. Wen said the same thing as Jiang Tai, that she would avenge me sooner or later.

I had already understood by then that my enemy in Jiang Tai's eyes was Jiang Xiongying, because he was also his enemy, and my enemies in Wen's eyes were Yao and Jiang Lina, who were also her enemies. In fact, no one avenged me, and revenge was not what I wanted. I just wanted my parents and brother to be alive. It was me who killed them. If it weren't for me, even if they became slaves, at least they would still be alive.

The baby in my belly had not yet been born, but my family had already been broken up. From then on, I realized that I couldn't protect anyone, not even my child. But I couldn't bear to be the executioner who killed him.

My child was killed by Wen. She thought it was natural because I betrayed her. Even if she was not free, she had to punish me. She could do so, but I had to avenge myself and my family with my own hands. I took the initiative to contact Dongyu's spy agency, and the person who provided me with this information was Jiang Gaofan. "

The Palace Master was shocked: "The Great Minister actually knew about our dynasty's spy organization?"

"With so many spies, there will always be some who get caught. Jiang Gaofan captured a spy, and thus locked onto a spy organization. He didn't intentionally let me know, but Jiang Tai and he both suspected that I had ulterior motives. I have had the thought of revenge for a long time, but I know that with my own meager strength, I can't eradicate my enemies. After all, I still have half the blood of the Chinese people in my body, and I think that the only one who can help me is Dongyu.

At that time, Jiang Tai was still in exile. He had no ability to eliminate Dong Yu's spies in Chang'an, and he didn't think about eliminating them immediately. This gave me a godsend opportunity. By the time Jiang Tai really wanted to take action against the spy, the spy had of course been removed and moved away. I had not received any instructions for action until this time. The order I received was to cooperate with the Left Deputy Envoy to help the prince return home safely. "

"Madam, have you really never thought about saving the child?" The prince asked this and immediately regretted it.

Yingshu looked outside the pavilion and saw a blinding blaze of sunlight.

Madam Wei smiled and said, "I am a heartless person. I cannot give up my obsession for a child with the blood of my enemy. I don't care about my parents and brothers who gave birth to me, raised me, and gave me life and warmth. I don't care about their hatred for their wrongful deaths. I just gave birth to a person. This is my obsession."

After Madam Wei left, Ying Shu expressed her own opinion: "Madam Wei cannot control the fate of the child. Her child has been a hostage in the hands of Concubine Wen since birth, and Jiang Tai does not want to keep the child."

The truth is so cruel.

It wasn't just Concubine Wen who wanted the innocent child to die. Concubine Wen was the one who took direct action. If Concubine Wen didn't do it, Queen Mother Yao would do it, and then Queen Wu would do it. Jiang Tai would choose to turn a blind eye if these two people took action. Jiang Tai's favoritism towards Madam Wei did not mean that he would love her and her family as well. In other words, the reason why Jiang Tai favored Madam Wei was because Madam Wei had no support except him.

The wife in Jiang Tai's mind will never be Lady Wei, and the crown prince in Jiang Tai's mind will never be born to Lady Wei. So if Lady Wei gave birth to a daughter, Jiang Tai would pamper her like the apple of his eye. But if she gave birth to a boy, he would be a useless abandoned child to Jiang Tai.

Concubine Wen held the child as a hostage, and the person she was threatening was not Jiang Tai, but Madam Wei.

Mrs. Wei saw through the ugly truth, she hardened her heart and abandoned the child.

Became her pawn for revenge.

Dianjun felt a lump of anger in her chest. She really couldn't understand how a mother could be so cruel.

Yingshu has seen many such things.

Out of greed, Qiao never considered Nanci's happiness or sorrow, safety or well-being; out of greed, Empress Yu did not hesitate to alienate the relationship between His Majesty and Sikong Beichen; He and Zheng, also out of greed, used their sons as weapons; even her!

After her rebirth, she never thought of giving Changle, her daughter, another chance to come into the world.

"The real cruel one is Jiang Tai." The prince said again.

Yingshu looked at her own shadow: "So Xinsu-kun is lucky."

"How do you say this?"

"Jian Shuyuan never competed for the emperor's favor in the inner court, and she distanced herself from her family. She never wanted to be a concubine favored by His Majesty, but she was trusted by His Majesty. For many years, she assisted in the palace affairs, was impartial and fair, and even did not care about Xin Sujun's marriage at all.

Although she seems ruthless, she is a real mother. Everyone knows that she is not simple, but no one sees her, even Xinsu Jun, as a threat. She can protect herself, which gives Xinsu Jun a broader world. In the power field, what is needed is not only a kind mother, but more important than kindness is a wise mother. Many people say that maternal love is selfless, but in fact, are mothers really selfless? "

Dianjun was also a person who lacked maternal love, but she always thought that even her wet nurse was so good to her, if her biological mother was still alive, she would be twice as good to her.

"How much does Queen Mother Yao love her children?"

"I still love Jiang Tai very much."

"If the Lord was Queen Mother Yao, would he also encourage Jiang Tai to kill his father?"

"Jiang Xiongying is not Jiang Tai's biological father..."

"A stepfather is still a father, and if Jiang Tai kills his stepfather, he will obviously be criticized by the world. It is more beneficial for Jiang Tai if Jiang Xiongying is alive. Although Queen Mother Yao is stupid, she understands this truth."

Lord: ...

"Empress Dowager Yao knew the truth, but she still wanted Jiang Tai to kill Jiang Xiongying. How much does she love her son Jiang Tai? If there is a love list, Empress Dowager Yao herself is at the top of the list. She has three sons and one daughter. Her four children combined are not as big as her toes. There are many people like Empress Dowager Yao."

So Yingshu has always cherished her parents.

Parents love their children, this is a natural love, and it is natural. Children are attached to their parents, which is also a natural love, and it is natural. The affection between parents and children is natural and does not need any ethical and moral constraints. However, in this world, there are already laws that require fathers to be kind and sons to be filial, and that relatives should maintain closeness. What does this mean? It means that there are already many cases in the world where fathers are not kind and sons are not filial, and relatives are not harmonious and estranged.

In her previous life, Yingshu had long seen that Yao regarded Wang Qing'e, her biological daughter, as a pawn. She once whispered to her mother, saying that the second mother was violating the laws of nature and human ethics. Her mother never liked Yao's character, but at that time she did not agree with her evaluation.

"Originally, a mother would carry a baby for ten months and give birth to a child at the risk of having to go to the King of Hell. This is a true blood connection, so how could a mother not regard her child as the apple of her eye? However, there have long been laws in the world that violate the natural order, forcibly attaching a relationship of interest to the relationship between mother and child. For example, the seven grounds for divorce include childlessness. Although it is generally not the case that a noble family will divorce a wife for childlessness, in some families, if a woman does not give birth to a son, her tablet will not be placed in the ancestral hall after her death, and she cannot be worshipped with incense. Many childless women will be criticized by their husband's family and cannot stand up straight.

Because the world has set such restrictions, married women all hope to give birth to a male heir. Only by giving birth to a male heir can they truly gain a foothold in their husband's family and be considered to have someone to rely on. This is true for the nobles and even more so for the common people. As a result, mothers will inevitably favor their sons, and the relationship between mother and son will become one of interests and no longer be purely natural.

Di Xiu, even I was no exception at first. Although I was overjoyed when you were born, I was worried about my future when I never got pregnant again. I was lucky that the man I met was your father. Because of your father's constant care and comfort, I was not afraid of being abandoned by my husband's family and being alone. But how many women in this world can be so lucky?"

Yao was wrong, but the blame should not be placed solely on her.

The Palace Master was stunned for a while, and then heaved a long sigh: "What Madam Wei wants is actually just to live and work in peace and contentment, and lead an ordinary life, but the world does not allow even such a small hope."

"The fates of Hongtao and Baili were similarly rough. They were both Qiang people, but their fathers and brothers died in battle. Their mother was forced to remarry their uncle, but their uncle could not tolerate them and sold them as slaves, the lowest level of camp prostitutes. Fortunately, they were sold to the camp under the name of Jiang Tai, and Jiang Tai was immediately expelled from the capital. They were fortunate to meet Madam Wei, and thus escaped the fate of becoming camp prostitutes.

Their fathers and brothers were forced to join the army. After they died in battle, they received no compensation. Naturally, no one cared about how the three of them would make a living. Their uncle followed the old rules of the Qiang people and took over their land and houses. Their mother, Dianjun, Hongtao, and Baili’s mother, later gave birth to two more children, both male heirs. However, when she became pregnant again, she miscarried and could no longer have children. Their mother died soon after."

What kind of bloody fate is this?

The palace master's brows were knitted tightly together: "What do the Qiang people regard women as?!"

"Madam Wei didn't consider her own future, but begged me to bring Hongtao and Baili back to Jiankang and settle them down. They are Qiang people, and Madam Wei has no illusions about finding a good marriage. She also knows that it is difficult for the two sisters to establish themselves in Jiankang. She only asks me to ensure that they will have enough food and clothing for the rest of their lives."

"What about Madam Wei? Doesn't she plan to escape from Northern Han?"

"She has made up her mind to die, but I still want to persuade her. I think she may not be free of worries. If there are still people and things in her heart that she is reluctant to let go, she may be able to grit her teeth and live on."

In this world, some people want to live but cannot, while others need to work hard to find reasons to continue living.

Apart from these two types of people, perhaps everyone else can be called lucky.

The lucky ones were like the Third Prince of Dayu, Sikong Mujiao. After a good sleep, his excitement was not gone at all. He washed up in a hurry and found Nanci. In a corner pavilion of the envoy's post, which seemed particularly quiet today, he couldn't wait to ask: "After a night, did Fifth Brother figure out what tricks the Left Deputy Envoy used last night to force Jiang Tai to admit in public that the Palace Master is the Palace Master?!"

"Actually, there's no need to think about it." Nanci said calmly, "It must be a plan to expose the Northern Han's conspiracy to steal the fat rose."

"Isn't this just nonsense? I have never worried that with the Left Vice Envoy in Weiyang Palace, I would not be able to protect Zhigui, but how big a trap did the Left Vice Envoy set to capture Jiang Tai!"

"All I know is that she carries magic water with her."

"What is the magic water?" The third prince was stunned.

"I heard that it is something that Imperial Doctor Liu occasionally needs when performing autopsies. I don't know much about its specific use, but Yingshu did tell me the method of making magic water. It requires wine, porcelain bottles, bamboo tubes, etc., to distill and heat the wine. Yingshu said that this method is recorded in the 'Nine Brewing Wine Methods'. This method can produce an extremely strong liquor, and Imperial Doctor Liu called it magic water."

"It can't be that Jiang Tai was poisoned by the magic water and can be completely controlled by Deputy Envoy Zuo, right?"

"Third brother, your idea is too strange."

"Fifth brother, please give me a reasonable explanation that is not too surprising."

"I can't give it to you."

In the end, it was not until Yingshu came to the post station that she told the Third Prince, who had been in a state of excitement for several days, what had happened on the stage, and she also explained in detail the uses of the magic water: "If you need to dissect a body during an autopsy, it is best to use the magic water to wash the clothes worn during the dissection and the utensils after use. In addition, if an epidemic occurs, the doctor who treats the patient can also use the magic water to expel the disease from the body to prevent over-infection."

"How did Deputy Envoy Zuo know that the magic water can remove stains from jade? Is it a secret method recorded in a book? What book is it that Deputy Envoy Zuo carries with him?"

"I didn't learn this from a book. I heard Imperial Doctor Liu talk about the wonderful uses of the magic water. I thought that since the magic water can remove the disease on clothes, ink stains, mildew, etc., it might also be able to remove the stain on jade. So I tried it, and it really worked."

The third prince's eyes widened. How could he make such a connection? I just listened to every word, so why didn't I make a connection?

"Books are written by people, and the so-called secret methods are also the result of people's experience." Yingshu occasionally likes to teach others: "Reading books requires not only the use of eyes, but also the use of the brain."

The third prince was about to "use" his brain, but he heard a loud noise and his brain got stuck again. He turned his head and looked towards the gate of the courtyard.
