Xu's mother stood dazedly, surrounded by unprecedented fear, as if she could already see the imperial decree bearing the punishment of the nine clans, and she couldn't do anything now, couldn't do anything.
"Mother! Mother!"
Xu Shao cried hard, hugging Xu's mother's waist tightly, embracing his only hope, "Mother, save my son, my son doesn't want to die! My son really didn't do it on purpose!"
Xu's mother didn't pay attention to it, she just pushed away his hand, shook it away, pushed back two steps, and slapped Xu Shao directly on the face, loud and crisp.
"Wake up! No one can save you, you don't want to die, who wants to die?! Instead of thinking about yourself, you should think about the fifty or so members of Xu's family! Think about your mother, think about your father! Missing your brother, I will be buried with you! I will be buried with you! Do you understand?! What is funeral! Do you understand?!"
Xu Shao didn't speak, just kept crying, regret, pain, all rushed to my heart.
Xu's mother stood for a while, her eyes were black and white, as if there was nothing to support her, she slumped on the ground with a plop, without any strength in her body, only endless collapse and despair.
When he came back to his senses, he cursed a few words.
"Why did I raise such a beast like you! Useless thing! Scum! White-eyed wolf!"
Without the strength to scold, he sat slumped in a daze.
Thinking of Xu's family, thinking of his own son, suddenly, two lines of hot tears welled up, maybe Xu Shao cried too sadly, and Xu's mother couldn't cry.
Desperate.
After a long time, he murmured.
"Aside from teasing, what else did you do?"
Xu Shao choked up and stopped choking after trying several times, "Son really didn't do it on purpose! Really, mother, it's all them, it's all their instigation, it's all their fault, my son is innocent! Innocent! !"
Xu's mother didn't want to argue with Xu Shao any more, and roared, "I ask you, what else have you done besides molesting?! Did you touch your hands Did you"
Xu's mother didn't dare to ask again, for fear of saying it, it was not as simple as Zhu Jiuzu
But what else is there to blame?
"No, no, no."
Xu Shao managed to come back to his senses, "No, the Empress Dowager knows martial arts, and the son was beaten to the ground by the Empress Empress before he could do anything."
Xu's mother breathed a sigh of relief and gave a wry smile. Children are the debt of their parents.
Gritting his teeth, putting his hands on the ground, he tried to stand up, then stepped forward and pulled Xu Shao up, dragging him forward.
Xu Shao panicked and didn't dare to go forward. He just stayed where he was, and refused to take a step.
"Mother, my son doesn't want to die, my son doesn't want to die, my son hasn't lived enough I really don't want to die."
Xu's mother didn't say a word, and pulled Xu Shao forward with all her strength.
The more Xu's mother remained silent, the more Xu Shao became more frightened. All the fears and fears of these days came out, and he didn't dare to move a step. He could feel that this was going to die!
"Mom!"
"Where is this going?!"
"Apology to the empress."
Xu's mother said with a blank face, this is the only way, maybe the empress is kind and loving, and there will be a slight turn for the better.
"I don't! I'm not going!"
Xu Shao's eyes widened in horror, and he didn't dare to take another half step, "Mother! Don't go! It's death! You can't go! Mother, you can't go!"
Xu's mother stopped pulling Xu Shao, stood silently, and expressed the reality at the moment with a blank face.
"If you don't go, you will die. If you go, there may be a turnaround."
"No! There won't be!"
Xu Shao was so frightened that he no longer dared to look at the empress again, it was Ling Chi's knife, he dared not.
"Mom, don't go!"
Holding back Xu's mother's hand, she said with so-called hope, "The empress has already asked someone to clean up her son. Maybe it's a punishment for my son. I've already cleaned up. Look, you've been fine for the past few days. It's over, mother." , passed away."
Xu's mother looked at her son coldly. The son who was born in Shiyue's pregnancy no longer felt anything.
"If that's the case, what are you afraid of? The past? Idiots are dreaming! The empress only wants to settle accounts after the autumn. She just wants to wait for Miss Lin to choose a husband and son-in-law. Do you know who is the person sitting on top? It's the queen of Liang Guo, Your God! The woman who decides your life and death, the life and death of our Xu family! How could she let you go? Let go of a person who has nothing to do to provoke Huangwei? How?!"
"Mother"
Xu Shao was stunned, yes, how come? Even if it was true, he wouldn't believe it, but he didn't dare to face the reality. The so-called reality was death anyway.
"Don't you even believe it yourself?"
Considering the rumors of the previous two days, the second son of the Hua family was expelled, reconciled with his wife, and was beaten to death, just because the empress knew that the second son had beaten his wife and son. The Hua family is like this, so how can she say that the empress will let them go?
The banquet in full swing was gradually coming to an end, Nanny Li wrote many names in her notebook, and the young lady sitting behind the screen also received a lot of invitations, and at the end they exchanged a few greetings and announced the end of the banquet. See off the guests.
After the end, Huarong didn't stay idle, but took the hot iron to go to Da Furen's place, and discussed with Da Furen, Lin Huan's mother, the candidate for today.
As for Miss Seven, let them go back first, and choose from the posters on hand. If they like it, they will tell the empress, and then investigate and investigate, and then the empress will come forward to decide the marriage.
Huarong went to Da Furen's place, Xiang Nianrong followed with the white cat in her arms, as for Lu Yiliang and Zhou Feiran, they went drinking with Lin Zitao early on.
Xiang Nianrong held the white cat in Huarong's arms for a while, ate a few bites of pastries, and then went to the side to play.
Leave space for Huarong and the others to discuss.
Hua Rong took the lead to ask, "Madam, do you think there is anyone you like today's candidate?"
The eldest lady thought about it carefully, and said pertinently, "They are all good. If there are a few that I like, the son-in-law of the chief envoy is personable and talented, which is really good."
When Hua Rong heard this, she fell in love with her heart, with a happy expression on her face, but she didn't speak directly, but asked Lin Huan's mother again.
"What do you think, big sister?"
Lin Huan's mother smiled, "Si Yunshi's son-in-law is good, and Commander Shi's son-in-law is also good. If we say that the most outstanding one is the son-in-law of the chief minister, I heard that he will go to Beijing next year to catch the exam! What does the empress think?"
Huarong smiled and said, "I also think that the chief envoy's son-in-law is good. I heard that he is still a popular candidate in the top ten, with a bright future, and the chief envoy has a good reputation as an official. The mistress is also a scholarly family. He's friendly, and generally speaking, he's really good. But the commander's son-in-law is also pretty good, with good looks and talent, and I heard that he's going to take the imperial examination next year." (Remember this site's website: www.hlnovel.com
