Chapter 117: Waiting for something
"The emperor is only fourteen years old, at such an age, whether there are descendants or not is not a need, this point the people can't see clearly and follow the gossip, but who in the court would not think of it, but to follow the trend to cause turmoil in the court, that is not stupid, or ulterior motives. When Feng Yuanzhi finally calmed down a little, Han Qihai explained.
"So what?" asked Kim Yunan.
Han Qihai smiled: "We caused the turmoil, and then of course we just waited and watched the changes." ”
The other three looked at each other, and their hearts were all cold, and Ling Xuexiu's eyebrows twisted: "The third prince is not afraid that he will become uncontrollable, and the prince left by the first emperor is not the only one who is a boy?"
Han Qihai said coldly: "Unless the Queen Mother also changes." ”
Ling Xue frowned: "Why won't the Queen Mother change?"
Han Qihai chuckled: "It's not good for her to change her, on the contrary, maintaining the status quo is the best for her." ”
"If she can support one, she can't support the other?" the three questioned.
Han Qihai shook his head and chuckled: "Don't forget, after the first emperor left, the reason why Jinshang was able to ascend the throne so smoothly is because Jinshang was the concubine who passed the name of the queen mother when he was the first emperor, and there was the holy emperor of the first emperor." It's not just talking. ”
"Although the first emperor is not here, but the queen mother is still there, if you can recognize one, you can't recognize the other?"
"Just based on some gossip from the people, you can abolish the emperor?!"
The three of them were stunned for a while, and after a long time, they unconsciously laughed one after another, although Feng Yuan couldn't help laughing.
Yes, if the Queen Mother really wants to do this, she really treats political affairs as child's play. Not to mention that the officials will not agree, if this is the case, it is really to confirm the rumors of the people to the official, and no one with a little brain will act like this.
............
It was late at night, very windy, and rainy.
It was the dead of night, accompanied by the sound of wind and rain, but the three-story small building was brightly lit and the flow of people was continuous.
This is Shuiluo Street, a famous laughing street in Beijing, because of its special operation, it is not subject to curfews.
The courtyard where the three-storey building is located is called Tianxiang Pavilion, only the prostitute business has no other side business, and the Baihualou, which is also a brothel, is across the street, and Qianyun Pavilion is adjacent to each other.
Although the wind and rain continued tonight, the singing and laughter of the women in the attic, and the sound of the silk bamboo piano were still clearly audible.
The southwest corner of the third floor of the small building is very lonely compared to the rest of the building.
At this time, the southwest corner was dimly lit, and the window of the innermost hut facing the corridor was ajar, and the loose panes were blown and swished by the night wind.
In the night, accompanied by dim and unknown lights, a bewitching woman in a red dress with a thin waist and a cool dress walked along the corridor from the north.
The whizzing sound of the half-open window obviously alarmed her, and the woman in red squinted her eyes and looked at the southwest corner, and saw that there was no light in the half-open window.
"Flower fold girl, why don't you light up the house when it's dark?"
After a few soft calls, no one in the room responded, and the woman in red was even more puzzled.
The room in the southwest corner of the third floor is not good because of the location, and it is rarely picked up by customers. Because of this, Hua Zhe stayed in that house for two nights in a row, and today I didn't see her figure all day, and I don't know what happened to me in the house with that old friend?
The woman in red is unhappy, everyone is the same cheap body, and her appearance is comparable, why can she have a good bag, and she doesn't have to laugh and please in front of people every day. I heard that her old friend would redeem her, and then rent a small courtyard to keep her outside. Although she is also a subordinate person, after all, she is a first-class attendant from everyone, and she is worth a lot of money, so it is not a problem to raise one or two outer rooms. If you go out like this, you really don't have to be careless every day to please and make a living by laughing, and you can really live the life of a rich wife who is served.
really deserves her name: there are flowers that can be folded straight and must be folded, don't wait for no flowers to break the branches.
Hey, this is fate, everyone has their own fate, and it's useless to think more.
Thinking of this, the woman in red felt unfair, she could only hold back her sigh, took two steps forward and called softly twice, seeing that there was still no response, she walked forward quickly in confusion, leaned into the half-open window and looked into the room.
There was no light, the room was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything clearly.
The woman in red furrowed her brows and screamed a few more times into the house, but there was still no response, so she could only take another step forward and knock on the door.
Still unheeded, she pushed the door hard, and it creaked open.
The woman in red stood in front of the door and hesitated for a moment before stepping into the house.
A foul smell wafted out of the house, and the woman in red was even more puzzled, covered her nose and walked a few steps inside, found an oil lamp on the table, and found a fire fold to light it, and then turned to the inner room with the oil lamp.
With a thud, the oil lamp fell to the ground, and a piercing scream pierced the loneliness of the corner.
When the crowd heard the screams, they hurriedly ran up, but saw a woman in a red dress with her chest half open rushing out of the house with a frightened face.
Some people looked at the woman in red suspiciously, and some people had already reacted and rushed into the house to extinguish the fire.
"That'...... There...... Yes...... Someone ......"
The woman in red turned pale and pointed to the room in a panic, but because of excessive panic, her mouth kept opening and closing, and she couldn't speak.
The old bustard in the lead had a dark face, and when he saw that the fire in the house had finally been extinguished in time and had not spread, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned to the woman in red who was still trembling, and shouted: "Rouge, what are you doing, do you want to burn down our Tianxiang Building?"
"I didn't ...... No, Mama, I didn't...... Be...... Is it there...... Yes...... There are dead people......"
The prostitute in red cried, pale and intermittently said to the end, and finally couldn't help but be frightened, and burst into tears.
Dead person!?
Everyone present heard the last two words, and their faces changed and turned white.
............
"Sister Yue, what's wrong with Tianxiang Pavilion?"
Liu Shuangli leaned in front of the window and asked Li Yue'e in the courtyard.
It was still early, and it rained for two days, but today it finally cleared.
The autumn sun is the warmest, and after breakfast, Lan'er moved a chair and sat on the edge of the porch to embroider flowers. And Li Yue, who was extremely out of tune with needlework and couldn't help but be curious, also came over to watch when she saw it.
After looking at it for a while, Li Yue'e couldn't stop sighing, looking at Lan'er's dexterous little hands, and then at her big hands that were roughened by the sword, and shook her head again and again.
Hearing Liu Shuangli's question, Li Yue'e let go of her rough hands and replied: "There are dead people there, and the people from Shuntianfu have already gone to inspect them." ”
"I heard that Lord Qianhu also went with someone to investigate, is it a very important person who died?" Liu Shuangli asked again.
Li Yue'e nodded, but said: "It's not a noble person who died, but his identity is a little sensitive, I heard that he was the personal attendant of Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, and he just committed an accident before he died, and he was exempted from an errand by Lord Shangshu." ”
The Ministry of Officials, the head of a hundred officials!
Liu Shuangli was slightly startled, and looked at Li Yue'e with inquiring eyes.
Li Yue'e nodded again, involving the affairs of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Officials, no matter how small the person is, it is also a big deal.
As he was talking, he saw that Lan'er had already collected the needle, raised his hand and opened the embroidered scarf to the sun.
"What a delicate plum blossom, Lan'er embroidered this is a veil, such a beautiful plum blossom, if you take it to wipe your hands dirty, it's a pity. Li Yue'e praised from the bottom of her heart.
Although she is a strong one, she really can't compare to herself, and she really admires her.
"It's a handkerchief," Lan'er smiled happily, "a handkerchief embroidered for Miss." ”
"I don't need this," Liu Shuangli waved his hand repeatedly, "I just have a cloth towel to wipe my hands." ”
"No, Miss needs it," Lan'er looked serious, "Miss has a plum blossom head and face is very beautiful, but she doesn't have a matching dress to wear." I want to embroider a matching plum blossom dress for the lady, first take this handkerchief to practice, and when the practice is done, I will embroider the dress for the lady according to the plum blossom pattern, and then take a pair of plum blossom embroidered shoes. When you wear it when you are young, it must be beautiful. ”
"This ......"
Liu Shuangli is embarrassed, no wonder she has always felt that the plum blossom style embroidered by Lan'er is familiar, it turned out to be embroidered according to the plum blossom head. In fact, when Qin Siyang gave her the plum blossom head face, the matching dress was also sent, not only did he send it, but the people of the Han family also sent a lot of it. But when she went out, she thought those dresses were too fancy and soft, and it was inconvenient to wear them when she was walking outside, and she was used to men's clothes outside, so except for a few necessary cloth dresses, she didn't bring those Qiluo dresses, which are now stored in the Jin family compound on the outskirts of Beijing. Because the plum blossom head is small and cute, she likes it very much, so she always carries it with her.
"Haha......"
Seeing that Liu Shuangli was stunned in place, with a wooden face and a wordless response, Li Yue'e couldn't help laughing: "Sister Yining is really going to live the life of a big lady, haha, who said that our Long Xingwei are all rough people, look at this is not a young lady, and her clever maid is there, haha!"
"Sister Tsuki......"
Liu Shuangli was really speechless.
Lan'er blinked happily and said to Li Yue: "What do you say about the flag, Miss is not a rough person. ”
"Yes, your young lady is precious, the most suitable for delicate dressing, Lan'er quickly embroider some floral clothes for your young lady to dress up." Li Yue'e smiled so much that her eyebrows and eyes were connected into a line.
Liu Shuangli blushed suddenly, staring at his big eyes, but he didn't know how to say it for a while.
This Lan'er is too, only two months old, she was originally a cowardly villain, but because of her ignorance, she was so bold that she dared to go back even Li Qitou's words.
While the three of them were talking and laughing, they saw a small group cautiously poking their heads into the courtyard.
Because this is a women's courtyard, the people who come here to sprinkle and sweep on weekdays are the mothers-in-law of the servants under the Zhenfu Division. The mother-in-law who sprinkled the sweep did not live in the yamen, but would come every afternoon to clean up, get some silver, and then go home separately. As a result, the courtyard is never deserted, and the male servants rarely set foot in it.
"What person, what are you doing?" Li Yue'e swept unhappily towards the little guy who came in.
Li Yue's voice was not loud, but she was very imposing when she was serious, and the little girl was so shocked by this question that she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, others were still a little awake, and they held on to the edge of the door when they pounced, so that they did not fall to the ground.
"Lord Xu Qianhu is looking for Miss Yang. The little guy looked at Liu Shuang and left the road.
"Lord Xu looking for me?" Liu Shuang said bizarrely.
The little girl nodded: "Yes, my lord, please Miss Yang go to the front yard yamen now." ”
"Now?" Liu Shuangli was even more surprised.
The Zhenfu Division is different from other places, in this important town, the servants and servants in the Yali only do simple work such as sprinkling and sweeping things, and slightly more important things such as passing messages back and forth have always been done by Long Xingwei, who has a job. But today, Xu Qianhu sent her to the front yard yamen, but called a jobless servant to come.
How much does this mean by not valuing her, or do you really see her as a big lady!
