Five months later, Shu Yuwan gave birth to a boy and a girl.
This time, the emperor was finally able to name the child by himself. After struggling for several days, the emperor waved his hand and named his daughter Song Mingzhu. Later, she was known as Princess Mingzhu.
The second son was named Song Mingxuan by Shu Yuwan.
The emperor happily wanted to grant amnesty to the whole world, but Shu Yuwan stopped him, "If there are any wronged people, they should be tried again. If they are really guilty, they should be released to cause chaos."
The emperor laughed when he heard this and had to give up.
Eight years later, the Supreme Emperor became seriously ill.
The emperor took the queen and three children to the Xishan Palace to visit.
The Supreme Emperor was on his deathbed, with gray hair and sunken cheeks. When he saw the Emperor and Shu Yuwan's family of five, a smile spread across his face: "Jin'er is here."
Tears filled the emperor's eyes, and he held the hand of the Supreme Emperor: "Father..."
Empress Xiaoxian died young, and it was the Supreme Emperor who single-handedly raised the Emperor and supported her all the way to this day.
People often say that if the eldest son of Ming Taizu had not died, he would have been the most powerful prince in history. The emperor felt that his succession was as smooth as any prince who had not died.
Now, my father is also leaving.
Seeing the tears in the emperor's eyes, the Supreme Emperor smiled instead: "Don't cry, Jin'er, my father is going to find your mother and queen." He glanced at Shu Yuwan and Brother Cheng and said, "Now you are governing Dajing very well. , and the Queen Qinse is in harmony, and the father is relieved. "
After saying that, the Supreme Emperor looked at the group of concubines and descendants outside.
The seven youngest princesses of the Supreme Emperor already had consorts and children.
The fifth prince died of illness in the third year of his house arrest.
It was Shu Yuwan who moved the hand. The fifth prince was about to get married when he came of age, and he became restless again. He secretly planned to marry the only daughter of a military general's family. Shu Yuwan simply ordered the maid next to the fifth prince to give him a pair of strong medicines. Ended the life of the fifth prince.
Concubine Shen took the sixth prince to the Xishan Palace and lived peacefully. Now that the sixth prince has grown up, he moved out of the Xishan Palace, got married and had a son. The emperor named him King Chen, and he can now work in the court.
Princess Pingyi also came with her consort and children. Pingyi had always been favored, but now seeing the Emperor like this, she burst into tears. Concubine Xin, with gray hair, tremblingly hugged her daughter to comfort her.
The Supreme Emperor turned back with a smile on his lips, said something softly, and closed his eyes. For a moment, the Xishan Palace was filled with deafening cries and silence.
......
Another two years passed.
Shu Yucheng fulfilled the promise he had made to the Zhou family when Yuwan reconciled, and became the minister of Dali Temple, and asked for a royal title for the Zhou family.
A year after Shu Yuyang went to Shu County, he took the Tang family and his two children, Wenqing and Wenyi, to Shu County. For many years after that, he took root in Shu County. After eliminating the influence of King An, he promoted potatoes in Shu County. , the planting of sweet potatoes, etc., and schools were opened widely. At the same time, at the suggestion of Shu Yuwan, a women's school was opened.
He transformed a barbaric land in the eyes of the world into a land of prosperity and a land of poetry and books that was well-known far and near.
Yue'er has grown into a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old, and the twins have grown into a ten-year-old boy. Cheng'er was appointed as the prince last year.
Now, what Shu Yuwan worries about all day long is to find Yue'er a husband she likes in the capital.
Yue'er now finally knows why her younger brothers and sisters call her mother and queen, and she calls her mother, but she still likes the name mother, it is a title that belongs to her alone.
As for the husband she wanted, she really didn't want one.
My mother thought that she liked Brother Qing and wanted to transfer her from her uncle's name to her father's name, but she was not!
Influenced by her mother and Mr. Jimo, her wish was to continue to carry forward her mother’s women’s school. Over the years, the women’s school founded by her mother had branches in various counties in Dajing, especially in Shangjing and Min schools. The girls' school run by my aunt in western Guangdong is particularly prosperous.
She hopes that in the future, women's education will not only train women to engage in various jobs, but also to enter the court and serve as generals and ministers!
This is her wish!
Brother Cheng said he would definitely support her!
Fifteen years later, probably when he was young, he was assassinated and poisoned again. In addition to these years of working on state affairs, the emperor's body also declined visibly.
When he was dying, he looked at Shu Yuwan in front of the hospital bed, with white hair sandwiched between her black hair. He was filled with grief. The emperor raised his hand with difficulty, wiped Shu Yuwan's tears, and smiled softly: "Wanwan, I can do it, right?" ”
Wanwan said at the beginning that you will know whether it can be counted until you are buried together, but he heard it!
Shu Yuwan cried and nodded.
"Ajin, please accompany me for one more ride."
The emperor smiled, slowly lowered his hand that wiped Shu Yuwan's tears, and closed his eyes.
