The matter in Huainan was quickly found out. It is said that someone was ordered by the current prince to kill Xiao Linchuan, hoping to get rid of him quickly to eliminate Xiao Linchuan's potential threat to him.

Jiang Qingxue couldn't understand these conspiracies, and she just ignored them. She still had to eat and drink every day, but the servants of the palace were all in confusion, and they all felt like they were mourning for their heirs, crying and crying, and they were so horny. Exhausted.

Two months after Xiao Linchuan disappeared, a mourning hall was set up in the palace, white flags were hung all over the palace, and people came to the palace to express their condolences in an endless stream. When people came, Jiang Qingxue squeezed a few tears and acted. Later, she was really too lazy to deal with it, so she simply pretended to be sick and didn't even go out to Yuzhang Yard.

Concubine Zhao cried sincerely for several times, and became seriously ill again. Since then, she has become much more haggard. It can be seen that she is quite sincere towards Xiao Linchuan. Within a few months, he was taken back by the Zhao family, saying that he wanted to take him back to recuperate.

Because she had been married to the palace for many years and had never given birth, Concubine Sun simply gave her a divorce note after discussing with the emperor, asking her to get well and get married on her own. From then on, she had nothing to do with Xiao Linchuan.

Xiao Linchuan's body was never found, so he only put some of his old things in the coffin. The coffin was going to be buried in the imperial mausoleum. When leaving the palace, Jiang Qingxue took her four children to see it off and also returned it. I gave him some sticks of incense.

She held the young prince in her arms and spoke earnestly.

"Son, this is your father Xiao Linchuan. He is dead. Your mother and I will not live for a few more years. From now on, the palace and your three sisters will all rely on you. You have to live up to your expectations!"

The little prince rolled his dark eyes and looked at her calmly, still neither crying nor making a fuss. The three little princesses seemed to have sensed something. They kept crying and kept trying to get into the nanny's arms.

Jiang Qingxue was afraid that the child would hit something dirty, so she asked the nanny to take the child away.

"Everyone go back."

Everyone returned to Yuzhang Courtyard with their children in their arms, and Jiang Qingxue was also preparing to go back to rest. Funerals in ancient times were really troublesome. The coffin had to be kept for seven or forty-nine days, and during this period, eminent monks were invited to light the flames. After paying homage to Emperor Liang and reciting sutras for salvation, there were people who expressed condolences and family members had to come out to greet him.

After more than a month of hard work, Jiang Qingxue was really tired. She was about to go back to the backyard when she saw Xiao Linche and the Ninth Prince blocking her way.

Jiang Qingxue glanced at Xiao Linche. This was the first time they met after he got married. He looked more energetic than before. He probably had the support of the Tan family, so he had a great chance of winning!

"There are many disputes in front of the widow's door. Your Highnesses, please don't get close, so as not to cause gossip."

Xiao Linche took a few steps closer and lowered his voice.

"Qingxue, why do you have to say that about yourself?"

Jiang Qingxue took a few steps back, keeping a distance from him.

"Eighth brother, please call me Huangsao."

Xiao Linche's eyes dimmed and he smiled bitterly.

"My condolences to you, Sister-in-law Wanwang. The children are still young. If you collapse, what will they do? If you need my help in the future, let Chunlan and Huilan come to me."

Jiang Qingxue wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and tried her best to look sad.

"Is it over? I'm leaving after I'm done."

Seeing her walking away, Xiao Linche and the Ninth Prince also left the palace.

A few months later, Jiang Qingxue heard another shocking news. The prince was now imprisoned. All the palace servants in the East Palace, as well as the concubines and maids around the prince, were all dismissed, leaving only The Crown Princess was alone and was still with the Crown Prince.

Jiang Qingxue was drinking tea while chatting with Xiaoshan Xiaolian.

"I didn't expect the Crown Princess to be quite infatuated. Are they still living in the East Palace now?"

If it were Xiao Linchuan who was imprisoned, she would be the first to run away.

Xiao Lian and Xiao Lian gnashed their teeth when they mentioned the prince. Now everyone in the palace felt that the prince had killed Xiao Linchuan, but Jiang Qingxue felt that it was not that simple. Of course, she was only suspicious.

Just listen to the two people gloating about their misfortune.

"I heard that he has been sent out of the palace and now lives in an abandoned house in the city. The emperor has sent many guards, not even a fly can fly out. There is only an old nun and a maid around the princess. There is no one else waiting..."

"He deserves it. According to me, he should pay with his life for our prince. The prince has never even seen what the young prince and the young princess look like. They are just gone..."

Jiang Qingxue waved her hand to stop the crying two people.

"Okay, don't mention these things again."

The good days have just begun, why are you crying?

……

Huainan County.

When Lu Qi and Nan Niang heard that Xiao Linchuan was dead, they felt like the sky was falling. They finally followed their example and became the prince's concubines. Little did they know that Xiao Linchuan was short-lived.

The two hugged each other and cried for several times. After calming down, they packed up their gold and silver and prepared to go back to the capital to ask Jiang Qingxue for some silver, so that they would be secure for the rest of their lives.

Unexpectedly, before I left Huainan County, I was robbed by a group of bandits. Not only was my money robbed, but I was almost kidnapped. Fortunately, I was not too unlucky, and I happened to be rescued by the newly appointed magistrate of Huainan County. , the two of them saw that the county magistrate was in his prime and handsome, and they immediately started thinking carefully.

The two of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed, crying like rain.

"Thank you to the magistrate for saving your life. This little girl has nothing to repay. I only want to stay with you as a slave and maid to repay your kindness..."

"Sir, we sisters came to Huainan to join our aunt. Who knew that my aunt's family had moved away three years ago. Now we have nowhere to stay. We hope you will have mercy on us..."

The county magistrate looked at the two of them carefully and saw that they were both good-looking and pitiful. However, since he had just come to Huainan and had no concubines to take care of them, he also started to have evil thoughts.

"Being a slave and a maid is really a injustice to the two girls. When Chen first came to Huainan, his wife was pregnant and did not come with him. If the two girls do not dislike it and are willing to commit themselves to me, I will not treat you two badly. In the future, wouldn't it be better to call a slave to be a maid and be used like a lady than to be a maid?"

The two of them were overjoyed and agreed after some coyness.

"Little girls listen to adults."

"But it's up to the adults to make the decision."

The county magistrate personally helped the two people into the carriage, and the three of them happily went to the Huainan County government office. When they arrived at the Huainan County government office a few days later, the county magistrate couldn't wait to have their new house decorated, and that night they moved in with the two new aunts. After getting married, they became husband and wife and lived the same happy life as Xiao Linchuan.

……

The palace of the capital.

In a blink of an eye, the little prince was already over a year old. When he first learned to speak, Jiang Qingxue hired a wife for him, and he was carried by the nanny to the school every day. The servants thought Jiang Qingxue was crazy, and even The emperor and Concubine Sun also visited the palace several times. They all felt that Jiang Qingxue was crazy because of excessive grief.

When the master lectures, the young prince is always quiet. Sometimes he listens attentively, sometimes he frowns, or even shows disdain. At first, Master thought Jiang Qingxue was just fooling around and not teaching seriously. Within two months, he no longer thought so.

When the young prince was two years old, he had already read the classics, Confucius, Mencius and Lao Zhuang by heart!

When the young prince was three years old, he was already able to quote scriptures and compete with other scholars!

When the young prince was four years old, his father, who had been dead for several years, suddenly came back. Of course, he didn't come back alone. He also brought back a woman, who was said to be his savior.
