Chapter 478 The Past Gone with the Wind
At that time,
Xiao Jingyan was wearing a sky-blue bamboo shadow casual suit, a white marble hairpin crown on his head, a dogtail grass in his mouth, and leaning against the door frame with a smirk on his face.
He still had the same reckless look that Zhaohua disliked, but after several months of separation, he was still handsome and energetic.
His bright eyes only briefly met Zhao Hua's for a moment before they fixed on Rong Yue with overflowing tenderness, not wanting to move away even an inch.
It was unclear which of the two took more steps towards whom.
Finally, when Zhao Hua came to his senses, he saw Rong Yue already in Xiao Jingyan's arms, crying with joy.
Xiao Jingyan patted Rong Yue's back to comfort her. He frowned and shook his head at Zhao Hua cynically, pointed at Rong Yue, and mouthed:
"Your sister-in-law... Guan is a crybaby."
Zhao Hua couldn't help laughing, and quietly looked at the perfect couple, sighing silently:
Xiao Jingyan was once a handsome young man.
After going through many hardships together, they can finally embrace each other without restraint when they are no longer young.
This situation and this scene also made Zhaohua think of many people.
She thought of Ning Wanshuang, Shang Yang, and herself.
In the end, all the bitterness was just put away with a smile, turning into a heartfelt sigh:
very nice.
She said, "I have arranged a house and land for you in Yuncheng. Sister Rong has wasted so many years in the palace. Now the clouds have finally cleared and you can finally marry your brother.
Thinking that we will set off tomorrow, and the front court will also be closed tomorrow, you can stay at Xianshou Palace tonight. I have prepared fine wine and delicious food at night as a farewell party for you."
Zhao Hua watched the two of them being affectionate and could not bear to disturb them. He reached out his hand and asked Yun Shan to help him up, then he said casually:
"It's a nice and sunny day today, please go out for a walk with me."
When he walked to the hall, he stopped suddenly when passing by Xiao Jingyan, tiptoed playfully, patted his shoulder, and said in a serious tone:
"If you dare to bully Sister Rong, I will make you pay!"
"Got it~my sister the Queen Mother." Xiao Jingyan joked and flicked his finger at Yu Zhaohua's brow.
"hiss......"
Zhao Hua felt a little pain, and he covered his forehead and frowned.
The next moment, he raised his fist and punched Jamel Xiao hard on the chest.
After venting their anger, the brother and sister smiled at each other, and neither of them said anything pretentious.
Zhao Hua left enough time for Xiao Jingyan to be alone with Rong Yue.
After leaving the palace, I wanted to go to the Imperial Garden with Yunshan, but when I arrived at the courtyard, I saw a familiar figure sitting alone under the sycamore tree.
The woman was bored and was picking weeds in the flower bed.
Zhaohua thought for a while before calling her from behind.
"Mrs. Jing?"
She should have called Xiao Jingyan's biological mother Jing Gui Taifei,
But who would like to be called such a name for a woman who has been trapped in a cage all her life?
Madam Jing turned around when she heard the voice, and when her eyes met Zhaohua's, she smiled kindly.
Out of respect for the elders, Zhaohua bowed to Madam Jing.
"It's been a few months since we last met. Madam Jing, are you all right?"
Madam Jing nodded calmly, "With the Queen Mother's plan, everything will be fine."
Zhaohua smiled in response, and when they looked at each other in silence, Madam Jing spoke first and asked:
"Miss... can you take a walk with me when you have time?"
Zhao Hua was stunned for a moment, and his smile deepened. He nodded and agreed, "Of course."
These two people who had never met before, due to the complicated fate, now have the moment to walk side by side and laugh about the past.
Zhaohua listened quietly as Madam Jing told her about her past with the late emperor, Xiao Jingyan's youth, and... her unbearable past with Song Shicheng.
At the end of the conversation, Madam Jing couldn't help but sigh.
"After so many years, I feel like it's not worth it to be stuck for a lifetime because of something that was not my fault."
She raised her head, her whole body bathed in the warm sunshine, her smile was vicissitudes and brilliant,
"It's time to let it go."
Zhao Hua said: "Madam Jing has never done anything wrong. There is no need to blame or punish yourself for the mistakes of others."
Madam Jing nodded in response, then slowly lowered her gaze to Zhao Hua and asked in a gentle voice:
"What about you? Have you let it go?"
The sun is shining brightly today, just like the countless days when I sat under the trees in the courtyard with my mother and listened to her stories when I was a child.
Zhaohua always remembers that her mother often said to her:
'Women are often looked down upon by the world. But you must remember, my dear, no matter whether you are in good times or bad times, you must not disgrace yourself or belittle yourself. You must learn to be strong, and you must also learn to take on and let go of everything.'
When he was young, Zhaohua did not understand his mother's intentions.
Now, Zhaohua still remembered his mother's teachings, and smiled with relief.
"My mother didn't want me to live with hatred. So the dead are gone, what should the living worry about?"
