Chapter 573 Extra: May this winter not be cold (2)
Dong Yin was taken away. Although he was only three years old, which was the age when he should cry for his parents and act cute and coquettish, he did not say a word, gritted his teeth, and was taken away.
He didn't even look at his so-called father.
The eunuch who took Dong Yin away was old, had experienced a lot, and had a sharp eye. Dong Yin's behavior undoubtedly shocked him very much. A little child actually knew how to hate evil and fight for himself.
He sighed in his heart: "This child will surely achieve great success in the future."
How does Dong Yin know this?
After he followed the eunuch down, he did all the dirty, tiring and hard work from then on. He got up earlier than the chickens and slept later than the dogs every day, but he never complained and was always willing to work hard.
The old eunuchs around the emperor asked him several times whether he admitted his mistakes.
If he just admitted his mistake, he wouldn't have to suffer this pain.
But Dongyin refused to admit his mistake and he was very stubborn.
At first, people in the palace secretly blamed Dong Yin behind Feng Qin's back for his death, saying that he was so cruel and ruthless at such a young age that he even spared no effort on those around him, and that he deserved to suffer.
But gradually, seeing that Dong Yin would rather suffer than admit his mistake, everyone's tone began to change. They began to suspect that there was something behind Dong Yin's punishment and it must have something to do with the Queen.
Because of this incident, many people privately talked about the queen.
For a long time afterwards, many people looked at the Queen with malicious intent.
How does Dong Yin know this?
He lived through such hard times for three years.
He is already six years old.
During these three years, he never saw his mother once.
He thought about his mother day and night and was really worried that his mother would forget him.
On the night of his birthday, he couldn't help it and sneaked out of his residence to go to the cold palace to visit his mother.
Once he had made up his mind, he took a look, just one look.
.
In the cold palace, Bai Xuanbing made Dong Yin's favorite longevity noodles as usual, but she couldn't send it to Dong Yin for him to have a bite.
She looked at the longevity noodles with tears in her eyes, expressing her inner longing for him.
"Yin'er, today is your sixth birthday."
"Mom misses you so much, do you miss mom?"
"Of course not!"
"Would you hate your mother? She brought you into this world and made your life so hard."
Bai Xuanbing, even though she was in the cold palace, knew about the hard life Dong Yin was living.
Even if she doesn't want to know, someone will deliberately let her know.
After knowing this, I was naturally in great pain.
She wished she could share Dong Yin's burden and suffer for him.
However, she was now in the cold palace and could hardly protect herself. A bowl of longevity noodles was made by accumulating flour for a long time.
How can we talk about sharing?
"It's all mother's fault. If mother hadn't climbed into your father's bed, been discovered and imprisoned in the cold palace, and given birth to an innocent you, you wouldn't have to suffer this."
"You might be born in an ordinary family, be loved by your parents, and live a simple and ordinary life."
"It's not like now, when everyone is targeting you, looking down on you, poking at your spine, and making it impossible for you to hold your head up."
Bai Xuanbing lay on the table and cried bitterly, her shoulders trembling. Big tears fell on the table where she was lying. In a moment, a large area of the table was wet.
"Mother."
Suddenly, a strange yet familiar call entered Bai Xuanbing's ears.
Bai Xuanbing wiped her tears, stood up, and looked around anxiously for the source of the sound.
"Yin'er, it's you who's here, isn't it?"
"Where are you?"
Bai Xuanbing found his way from the house to the yard.
"Mother, here, I'm here, look here."
Dong Yin crawled in through the dog hole. In the moonlight, he was covered in dust and dirt, with messy hair. He looked like a poor little thing, and people kept their distance from him.
But his eyes, like the stars in the sky, are bright, shining, and full of expectation.
That was what he expected of his mother.
When Bai Xuanbing saw Dong Yin, she trotted forward, knelt on the ground and hugged Dong Yin.
"Mother."
"Yin'er..."
The mother and son hugged each other tightly.
Although three years had passed, their appearances had changed a little, but not much, they all recognized each other, and time had not changed anything.
They are still as close as they were before they parted.
"Yin'er, let go of mother and come eat longevity noodles."
"Today is your birthday. If you eat the longevity noodles, you will definitely live a hundred years."
Bai Xuanbing was the first to let go of Dong Yin, took Dong Yin's hand and walked to the table, brought the still warm noodles in front of Dong Yin, and asked Dong Yin to eat.
Dong Yin had never had a full stomach, and when he saw the food, which was made by his mother, he happily picked up the chopsticks and began to eat in big mouthfuls, eating very quickly and enjoying the delicious food.
Bai Xuanbing looked at it and felt very satisfied.
After Dong Yin finished eating, Bai Xuanbing affectionately helped Dong Yin wipe his mouth.
After three years, Dong Yin finally experienced the beauty of having a mother again.
But Bai Xuanbing felt only ashamed. She said, "Yin'er, I'm sorry. It was mother who brought you into this world and made you suffer. Do you hate mother?"
"No..." Dong Yin threw himself into Bai Xuanbing's arms and hugged her tightly. "Mom gave me life and is the most amazing person in the world. I can't even thank you enough, so how could I hate you?"
"Don't talk nonsense, mother."
"Yin'er, mother's good Yin'er."
Since Dong Yin was born, the emperor disliked him and gave him the name Yin, which means "to disappear" and "to cease to exist". The queen also made things difficult for him secretly. Bai Xuanbing regretted her actions and felt that she was wrong and had harmed herself and her child.
But at this moment, Bai Xuanbing no longer felt so.
Yin'er is the best gift God has given her.
She would trade it for everything.
"Mother, Yin'er will come to see you often in the future, so don't cry anymore."
"Mom, it's okay." Bai Xuanbing wiped her tears and looked out the window again. Seeing that it was almost time, she reluctantly said, "Yin'er, you should go back."
Dong Yin also knew that the fact that he came here must not be exposed, otherwise, neither his mother nor he would have a good ending.
In mild cases, the victim was beaten half to death, while in severe cases, the victim died.
"Then mother, I will come to see you in a few days."
"No, no, don't come."
Even though Bai Xuanbing wanted to see Dong Yin again and hug Dong Yin, she understood the interests involved and was worried that Dong Yin would be discovered and reported to the Queen.
By then, Dong Yin will be in trouble.
She will think of a solution and go out to see Dong Yin later.
However, she later thought of many ways and tried to drill through the dog hole that Dong Yin had drilled through, but found that she couldn't get through at all. The hole was too small. A child could get in and out, but it was too difficult for her.
Going out from the front is even more impossible.
There are guards everywhere in front.
After Dong Yin learned about Bai Xuanbing's difficulties, he decided to let him continue to take the initiative to visit his mother.
No matter how Bai Xuanbing tried to persuade him, it was useless.
