96 Ninety-six, the second prince
The golden autumn and September have just passed, it is the best time to live, the sky is high and cool, there is neither the heat of summer, nor the cold after winter, if it is a normal year, even the busiest merchants and vendors in the capital on weekdays have to be lazy, but this yearγγγγγγ There is a bit of unusual liveliness in the capital.
Because even the most ignorant women in the capital know that His Majesty now has the first prince who is in good health, and the Great Xuan Dynasty has a future.
"I said, Aunt Lai, you have been idle enough lately, and you are bragging and funny to people by the door every day. A woman dressed in a blue coarse cloth cloth lowered the basket on her back.
"What do you know?" I saw a woman in Mai standing against a vermilion corner door, munching melon seeds while rolling her eyes impatiently and saying a little proudly: "There is going to be a great creation in our house recently, Madame is merciful, let us be relaxed and relaxed." β
"Yo, what kind of great things can you do in this house?" The one who walked the goods was a mother-in-law who walked the streets and alleys to sell flowers to the girl on weekdays, although it was a country house around the capital, but the brain was lively, and he did not sell along the street, but walked through the corner door of these back houses for a long time to find these serving mothers-in-law, and the maids sold flowers. These people have some spare money in their hands, and it is not convenient to go out on weekdays, and they are not stingy with the few children at hand, which is very easy to sell, and at the same time, they can also know some news from the top people, increase their knowledge, and they are also a talking point in the village. The woman glanced at the dilapidated blue brick wall next to the door, and sneered in her heart. On weekdays, the lady in this house asked someone to buy a flower and bring a few copper plates to worry about her, what kind of creation can it have?
"Hmph, you don't know this, do you know what my master's surname is?" The woman saw a little disdain from her mother-in-law, and some of the unstoppable color on her fleshy face was about to overflow.
"What's your last name?" the woman's face was full of puzzlement.
"Our lord is surnamed Xing. β
"Oh. The mother-in-law who sold flowers looked at the woman in front of her with the eyes of a madman, and continued: "Aunt Lai, if you don't want this flower, if you don't want it, I still have the next family to go to, but I can't stand your consumption." β
"Hmph, just say that you old woman doesn't know what to do!" The woman sighed fiercely, shook the melon seed shell in her hand, clapped her hands and said, "Do you know that Your Majesty has recently won a dragon child?"
"Who would not know this news, Your Majesty is wise and martial, and since he ascended the throne for decades, our Daxuan is smooth and peaceful, and even my old wife who sells flowers in the streets and alleys knows that this is a rare saint, but it is the heirγγγγγγ Do you want to talk about your mansion and His Royal Highnessγγγγγγ The woman scoffed.
"Do you know what the eldest prince's biological mother's surname is?" the woman simply accepted the melon seeds, clapped her hands, and asked dryly.
"Where can I know the name of the noble person in the palace, is it possibleγγγγγ Do you want to say that the prince's biological mother's surname is Xing?" the smuggler sneered. Then he looked at the woman with wide eyes, and said with some surprise: "Is it true?"
"Hmph, what good can I do to lie to you? I can tell you quietly, our lady has been delighted for several days about this, and now she is just sitting and waiting for the reward. β
"Hey, my aunt and grandmother, this is the biological mother of the eldest prince, your wife has to be named a first-class lady, just like the one sung in the opera, and it will be really envious when the time comes. β
"What is Mrs. Yipin, our lady said that it is called Mrs. Command, you ignorant mother-in-law!" After the woman finished speaking, her waist straightened up, stroked the bun on her head with her hand and continued: "Where is it just Mrs. Yipin, our eldest prince is the eldest son of the royal family, if there is really a γγγγγγ in the future." The woman lifted her chin to the sky, "It's just a lady of Yipinγγγγγγ? I served our young lady when I was a child," said the woman, her face flushed, as if she had seen that day, and even her eyes sparkled.
"That's γγγγγγ Is it like this?!" The smuggler was a little incoherent, although she could hear some news from these people before, but it was just a little matter of jealousy of the women in the house, after all, the maids who could buy flowers with her were just rough little maids of some aunts and concubines, and the serious big maids, the gold and silver rewarded by the masters could not be worn out, where would they buy from her?
"When was your young lady elected to the palace? Why haven't you heard of it before?" asked the woman with some hesitation.
"Is this?" the woman's face seemed a little uncomfortable, and then she said with a straight face: "Since you asked, I will tell you, and you should not tell anyone else!"
"I know, I know, Aunt Lai, you just have to tell your mother-in-law, mother-in-law, I promise not to pass on the ears of the second person. The woman handed over a red rhododendron with some flattery, and said incessantly.
"Alas, you also know that the previous situation in our mansion was called a Xingfu if it sounded good, but it was just a house if it was ugly. It's really hard for me to be at home, and the wages given here are quite acceptable, so I quit other places and work here with peace of mind. β
Hearing these words, the smuggler rolled her eyes a little impatiently.
When the woman saw it, she was afraid that the woman would ask for the flowers back, so she hurriedly said, "Don't worry, won't you talk about it later?" One year, the lord had just been promoted to a small official because of good luck, and I heard the lady say that it seemed to be because of the human feelings, and there was some nervousness in the house, but it was just when the lord needed it, but it couldn't be without. Mrs. Dening appreciated, and my young lady became a personal maid for the eldest girl from the Ning Mansion, and then the eldest girl of the Ning family entered the palace, and my young lady also enteredγγγγγγ Although he said so, who knew that there would be such a splash of wealth now!"
"Isn't it? It's really human luck that can't be stopped. The woman's face was full of shock and mixed with some envy, and then hurriedly said to the woman: "This is the great creation of your house, if you are developed after Aunt Lai, don't forget the old woman, the old woman is not greedy, if the old woman can sell these flowers to the nobles above, the old woman will not waste this life in vain." Don't hide it from your aunt, everyone knows that my Rong Pozi's flowers are the freshest and best. β
"Naturally, I won't forget you when the time comes. Aunt Lai said, and the flesh on her face squeezed out a somewhat fake smile.
Mrs. Rong didn't care, just like she had a pie falling from the sky, and she smiled and stuffed a flower into Aunt Lai's hand, and then walked away happily with a bamboo basket on her back.
Aunt Nalai looked at the background of the woman, shook her handkerchief, lost the remaining melon seed skin in her hand, and then hummed: "It's such a flower, I'm afraid that no one will want it if it is lost at the door, and it will be returned to the noblemanγγγγγγ Hmph!" Thinking of Mrs. Rong's contempt before, Aunt Lai finally felt that she raised her eyebrows and breathed a sigh of relief, and closed the side door with a twist of her waist, only to feel that she was walking with the wind.
"Niangniang," when Anzhi walked in, Tinglan was peeling the grape skins for Heluo lying on the couch, and Anzhi saw a small pile of grape skins piled up next to her, so she hurriedly said: "Niangniang can't eat anymore, haven't you heard of it?"
Heluo listened, couldn't help but laugh, even half of the grapes in his mouth almost fell out, the vitamins and anthocyanins in the grapes are very good for pregnant women, plus this is the grapes in her space, it is even more nourishing for people, I really don't know that the ancients are sometimes superstitious, the reason is really crying and laughing.
"Okay, if you don't eat, you won't eat, Tinglan, you can clean up," He Luo waved her hand, she had eaten enough anyway. "Tell me, what's going on with you, is our Xing Niangzi okay?"
"Look at what you said, where can it be bad? The eldest prince is congenitally deficient, and he doesn't know if he can support him, plus Concubine Shen is such a mother, and the emperor doesn't want to see him, and now the second prince who only knows Xing Niangzi in the palace and outside the palace doesn't know how to treat the eldest prince, if it weren't for the fact that the eldest prince was raised by the queen, he didn't know how to treat it!"
"Could it be that she still thinks that this child can be raised with her?" He Luo looked funny.
"She's not so stupid, in this palace, she can raise the imperial heir above the third grade, not to mention, this is the first healthy prince in the palace, where can she raise her? β
"The abacus is a good one. He Luo smiled slightly, with a leisurely look on his face.
I heard that a few days ago, there was someone in Xing Niangzi's house, asking to see Xing Niangzi, the biological mother of the second prince!"
"She's too arrogant," it really happened that Tinglan walked in after cleaning up, and after listening to Anzhi's words, she exclaimed: "You know, how difficult it is for the nobles and sons with heads and faces in this palace to see their families once, and even Mrs. Shuyi, who has a second princess, is a princess when she is one year old, and His Majesty has the gift to see the middle of the house." β
"But isn't it? There are few heirs in the palace, and the prince can be counted as the top one here, but don't you just take yourself seriously? I don't want to think about it, if it weren't for you and Ying Zhaoyi to take care of her, she couldn't say whether she was alive or not, where could there be such a way, but it was really a villain who was rampant. Anzhi was a little angry.
"Okay, the palace affairs are now in Sister Ying's hands, Sister Ying is ready?"
"Ying Zhaoyi said that it was because of Xing Niangzi's merit in giving birth to the emperor's heir, which was accurate, and she gave the queen mother, I don't know how, the queen mother was also approved!"
"She's naturally going to be accurate. "Thinking that the queen has calculated a thousand times for Shen Qingru as a child in her belly, but she has not to say whether she can raise a living or not, and she is not allowed to be treated by the emperor, and now, seeing that a former palace maid has given birth to a healthy child, I don't know how to be angry!
"Originally, I thought that if she was a smart person, the concubine would send the second prince to Sister Ying as a companion to avoid her lonely, and by the way, she would be meritorious, and it would be okay to protect her, but now it seems that our Xing Niangzi has hard wings, since this is the case, let her stand in front of her. He Luo snorted lightly and then said to Zhi on the other side, "You go and tell Sister Ying, the defense line and nails we have installed in her palace can be slowly withdrawn, but don't withdraw all at once, take your time!"
Hearing this, Anzhi smiled and said, "The meaning of the mother of our province, don't worry." β
"How many noble ladies in the palace are looking forward to being pregnant, and now they are taken by a small palace maid, I don't know how dissatisfied they are, and now they γγγγγγ Tinglan also laughed on the side.
"Well, one more, please say hello tomorrow, I can also be pregnantγγγγγγ Heluo gently gestured with his hand to open.
"But Niangniang is only in her early two months pregnant, and the fetus is not stable, will it be early" Tinglan was a little uneasy.
"Don't hide it anymore, these days, the emperor doesn't know why he is busy with official business, so he has not come to the harem twice, once to the queen, once to me, last time I used the excuse of being unwell to cover up the past, if it is like this next time, once it is revealed that I am pregnant, I am afraid that the emperor I think I don't trust him, but I am afraid that it will hurt my feelings when the time comes. β
"The mother is far-sighted. Anzhi and Tinglan were both in a cold sweat, both of them only thought of saving the fetus in Heluo's womb, but they never thought that if Niangniang lost her holy will at that time, with Niangniang's family background, without the protection of the emperor, how difficult it would be. 166 Reading Network
