Chapter 405: Clearing Out
The old lady threatened to commit suicide, which frightened Madam Wu and her maid, but she couldn't scare Manager Zhou.
Threatening the prince with her own life, does the old lady think that the prince really cares about her life or death?
The prince was already in a good mood by not sending the old lady on her way.
"The prince has said that the old lady should choose between moving to the fourth room or sending the second master off."
After Manager Zhou finished speaking, he waited there.
The prince doesn’t really care whether the old lady chooses to die or move to the fourth room.
The old lady still wants to live the life she used to, respected by everyone, but that is impossible now. If the old lady wants to be placed under house arrest in Wutong Courtyard, the prince will grant her wish.
The old lady threatened to commit suicide, but she didn't expect that she couldn't even see the prince, and Manager Zhou blocked her way.
If she was really cruel enough to stab him and die, the worst that could happen was that the palace would arrange a funeral for her. In consideration of the marriage granted by the late emperor, she would be given a grand funeral.
As for other things, the old lady wants to use her own life to do something to the prince, which means she thinks too highly of herself.
Not to mention that the old lady committed suicide, even if the prince killed her, it was their own fault.
Manager Zhou said, "The old lady has enjoyed glory for most of her life. Don't let her lose face in the end."
The old lady's back teeth were loose and her eyes were bloodshot.
Manager Zhou remained calm and composed.
Mother Wu couldn't stand it anymore and advised the old lady, "Let's move."
The old lady was unwilling.
But it was of no use being unwilling. The mistake made by the Second Master was too big and had exceeded the prince's tolerance limit. If it were not for his own face, he would have thrown them mother and son out of Jingyang Palace that night.
Mother Wu snatched the golden hairpin from the old lady's hand, called a maid, and helped the old lady out.
As soon as the old lady left, the maids and servants came in to help carry things.
The old lady's face looked ugly, as if she had swallowed dozens of flies, and her mouth tasted of blood.
Chen Tang was so angry that he sent the old lady off on her way out of the house.
In the mansion, Chen Tang did not go to pay her respects to the old lady. Now that the old lady moved to the fourth room, it was even more impossible. It can be said that unless the old lady passed away and she had to go to pay her respects, Chen Tang would not go to the fourth room. Today was most likely the last time they would see each other.
The old lady's cold eyes swept across Shen Tang's face. Shen Tang had a gentle smile on his face. Under the sunlight, it became more and more dazzling, and it hurt the old lady's eyes severely.
In just one morning, Wutong Courtyard was emptied.
Even the old lady had moved to live with the fourth master, and the third wife no longer had any hope of staying in the palace mansion.
The third wife was born out of wedlock. Although she usually hangs around the old lady and Concubine Jiang, she has never hurt the princess and rarely causes trouble. The prince will not implicate the third wife for the mistakes of the second master.
The prince will give the three wives as much as the public property should give them.
Being fair is enough for the Third House to be grateful for.
After all, even the old lady was driven out of the palace mansion, and the third room still had a share of the family property, which was already a pleasant surprise.
Five days later, the third room also moved out. The princess had been married into the Jingyang Palace for twenty years, and she had never felt that the palace was so quiet.
The princess removed all the spies planted by the old lady and the second wife throughout the palace. Those who were confirmed were sold, and those who were suspected were sent to the farm. The old lady and the second and third wives moved out, and there was no need for so many people in the big kitchen, embroidery room and other places.
The days suddenly became quiet.
Chen Tang had been looking forward to this day since she got married, but she never expected that her wish would come true and she would be able to drive these annoying people out of the palace before the child was born.
The only ones left are Concubine Ye and Prince Qi.
Concubine Ye and her son are like grasshoppers in autumn, and they will not be able to jump for many more days.
That day, the imperial physician came to check Chen Tang's pulse, and Chen Tang asked, "How long will it take to give birth?"
The imperial physician said, "It's very difficult for twins to be born full term. Usually they will be born half a month early, which is normal. This means that the Crown Prince's Consort may give birth at any time."
She had been so happy these days that when she heard the imperial physician say that she would give birth at any time, Chen Tang started to worry again.
People say giving birth is painful, but she doesn’t know how painful it is.
In her previous life, she had a miscarriage and the baby was not big, which was heartbreaking enough, let alone there were two in her belly.
Afraid and looking forward to it at the same time.
When the news of the impending birth reached the Pingyuan Marquis's residence, the fourth wife sent a gift to hasten the birth and prayed for the safety of mother and child.
Knowing that Chen Tang was afraid, the Fourth Madam comforted her, "Tang'er is the most blessed person that Fourth Aunt has ever seen. Fourth Aunt believes that she will not suffer much during childbirth, and both mother and child will be safe."
Chen Tang said, "I hope it will be like what Fourth Aunt said."
The fourth wife instructed Ginkgo and Qiutong, "If it breaks out one day, send someone to tell me immediately and I will come to the Jingyang Palace."
Although I may not be able to help much, it will make me feel more at ease to keep an eye on it.
Remember the ginkgo and autumn tung trees.
The fourth wife sat with Chen Tang for a while, then went to see the princess, and then returned to Pingyuan Marquis Mansion.
Chen Tang's body was so heavy that it was difficult for her to stand up or sit down. She had to go through the pain of childbirth, so she hoped to give birth to the baby as soon as possible.
On this day, Xie Guimo accompanied Chen Tang in walking in the yard. A snow-white carrier pigeon landed on the roof. Chen Qi jumped onto the roof, caught the pigeon, and jumped down.
Chen Tang looked at the letter handed to Xie Guimo, wondering what was written in it.
Xie Guimo said, "Grandfather will return home the day after tomorrow."
Chen Tang was surprised, "Why did the old prince come back suddenly? Is it because of the matter of the second house?"
But that doesn't make sense. The old prince will be back the day after tomorrow, and the news of the second master's accident should not have reached the old prince's ears so quickly.
Xie Guimo laughed, "Grandfather came back to see his great-grandson. No one except them can let Grandfather return to Beijing."
The prince is too capable. The old prince stopped attending court a long time ago. It is a good story that father and son attend court together, but the prince is not inferior to the old prince in leading troops or fighting. He is even better than the old prince. It is so shameful that he cannot beat his son in the argument in court.
In addition, the old prince had always wanted to train a cavalry, and when there was an opportunity to realize his wish, the old prince decisively asked the emperor for permission to leave Beijing.
It’s just that when the old prince left, the palace was in harmony. When he came back, the second, third and fourth rooms had all been separated out, and even the old lady was no longer in the mansion. I wonder what the old prince felt.
Xie Guimo hadn't seen his grandfather for more than a year. Thinking about his grandfather's unreliability and the wrong marriage he had arranged for him, Xie Guimo was full of complaints.
Although he and Shen Tang had a happy life in this life, the life that Shen Tang experienced was too miserable.
If I don't mention the wrong parent...
Thinking about the fact that he couldn't eat bayberry and this weakness, Concubine Ye knew that Concubine Ye would not let him and Shen Tang live in peace, and the ending would most likely be the same.
Xie Guimo was glad that he and Shen Tang still had a chance to start over.
Xie Guimo said, "When my grandfather comes back, I will make sure he makes it up to you and me."
