Chapter 248: Gentleman
Cheng Xiaomu finally figured out what happened to him, Lu Yingcheng and the imperial doctor also went back separately, Cheng Su was slightly relieved, no longer an image of an irascible old father who could be angry to death by his son at any time, "Although you are a disaster, it is really not glorious, just take advantage of your illness to recuperate at home for a few days, and the Longcheng Army will also take the opportunity to step down, and then find a vacancy in the military department or the criminal department for you." ”
"What happened to the female history?" Cheng Xiaomu suddenly asked.
"I heard that after waking up that day, I looked for a death, and was rescued by my mother, and now in Ronghua Palace, the specific situation is not yet known. Mrs. Cheng said. "I'm afraid that the female history can't do it. ”
Cheng Xiaomu thought silently for a while, and then said in a surprising voice, "I want to marry her." ”
Father, mother, and brother were all suppressed by him.
"What did you say?" asked his eldest brother, "are you faint?"
"It's not. Cheng Xiaomu said, "Although both of us are calculated, it is an indisputable fact that the two of us are in the same room, and since I have ruined her reputation, I am naturally responsible for her." ”
"I think you're dazed. The eldest brother said angrily. "What kind of family are we, even if we count up to three generations, we haven't married a servant girl as a wife, she is not an ordinary maidservant, she is the maid of the concubine, what is the reputation of the concubine in the court,
If you want to marry her, the reputation of our family in this generation will be gone. ”
"She is the female history of the palace. ”
"No matter how female history is, she is also the servant girl of the noble concubine, and if you say it outside, others will not say that you married the female history of the palace, but only that you married the maid of the noble concubine. The eldest brother was a little angry, "It's not a shame." ”
Cheng Xiaomu was silent, and when the eldest brother thought he had given up, he said again, "Eldest brother, our family is a scholarly family, I know, I don't like to read since I was a child, I only like to dance knives and guns, I don't know how many times I was beaten by my father when I was a child, but you tell me every time that you can be a gentleman without studying." ”
"A gentleman is not vain, and his deeds must be right. ”
Cheng Xiaomu looked at his eldest brother, "Now that I have passively ruined the reputation of other girls, should I marry her?"
"I'm still stuck between the doors, but I don't know. ”
"You. The eldest brother was speechless by him, "You didn't mean it, you fainted the whole time, you didn't have consciousness, you, you don't have the reputation of a bad person." ”
"If there is no bad reputation, why is she looking for death?" Cheng Xiaomu said, "I don't have a big brother who is erudite, and I don't have a big brother who is promising, but I don't want a girl who died innocently at my behalf." ”
"Okay, what are you arguing about here? Cheng Su interrupted his son's dispute, "You think it's beautiful, is the concubine willing to marry her maid to you?"
"Go to bed early, there is so much blood, you have to take care of it, so as not to fall into the root of the disease. After Cheng Su finished explaining, let everyone go out, don't disturb him to rest.
Mrs. Cheng tucked the quilt for him and touched his face, "My son is a real gentleman." ”
After returning to the house, the old couple got together to discuss, "I didn't expect Mu'er to think like this, things are difficult." Mrs. Cheng said, "His temperament master knows, if he doesn't let him get his wish, he may be able to make trouble." ”
"Actually, it's not that you can't get married. Cheng Su said that he had been thinking about it since he heard it.
"Da'er is right. Mrs. Cheng said, "You and I are not pedantic people, and we will not look down on her servant background, but those elders in the family must have something to say." ”
"You have always wanted to find a good daughter-in-law for Mu'er, how can you listen to this style, you are also willing to be a woman?" asked Cheng Su.
"I used to listen to other people's words about the concubine, and they were all demons, so I didn't believe it, if it was really so powerful, it would still be possible for so many people in Beijing to spread her gossip. Mrs. Cheng said, "This time I saw the concubine with my own eyes, look at her behavior, look at her style, it's really good, I don't think the people around her can be wrong." ”
"Our son is really dangerous this time, the concubine wants his life, it is easy and justifiable, but the concubine did not, and she did not get angry with him, and when I went, I asked the imperial doctor to treat him. Mrs. Cheng said, "It's no exaggeration to say that I wanted to kneel down at her and thank her." ”
"At this juncture, if you want to marry that female history, you undoubtedly have to stand in line. Cheng Su sighed and said that if he had any concerns, that's all.
"The concubine doesn't look like she's going to force anyone to stand in line. Mrs. Cheng said, "I'll tell you the truth, when the concubine let Mu'er go, I was wondering if the concubine would let Mu'er marry that girl, so that she would have a good reputation, but you see, to this day, I also see that the concubine has this plan." ”
"Mu'er didn't wake up before, and I didn't think about it, but since Mu'er proposed it herself. Mrs. Cheng said, "Let's take the initiative to say, it may be better." ”
"The concubine is also in trouble now, that female historian is now living in Ronghua Palace, but she can't live for long. Cheng Su said.
"Anyway, it's all in charge. Mrs. Cheng said, "When I chose a daughter-in-law for Mu'er, either he was unwilling, or I felt that something was wrong. ”
"Maybe it's really predestined. ”
There was a gloomy mist in the Dill Palace, and Concubine Song was even more panicked, the inner attendant prepared by Miao Sizhen turned out to be someone from her palace, or someone who was assigned to the Dill Palace as soon as she entered the palace, and the person had been taken away, although His Majesty had not summoned her over to inquire, Concubine Song felt a bitter throat.
If I knew this, I might as well have died.
The fifth prince came to ask for peace, and when he saw that his adoptive mother was so uneasy, he said, "If the mother concubine is really afraid, go to your father and tell me, you really don't know about this matter, and it has nothing to do with you, and your father knows everything and will not be angry with you." ”
"You don't know, it's complicated. Concubine Song frowned and said, she looked at the five princes, "You say now that it's not big, it's not small, if something really happens to me, your father may want to change your adoptive mother, the concubines have heirs, I'm afraid they won't be chosen, for the rest, I think Xian Zhaoyi is not bad, she is good friends with Concubine Meng, Concubine Meng gave birth to a princess, and her mother's family has a concubine, and she has a good relationship with Concubine Xian, she should be able to protect you." ”
"Although her position is low, if your father asks her to be your adoptive mother, he will naturally promote her position. ”
The fifth prince burst into tears, "Mother, am I not an unfortunate person. ”
"My biological mother is by my side because I did something wrong, and now I am by my adoptive mother's side, and my adoptive mother is like this, I am an unfortunate person, don't live in the world to harm others. ”
"You can't talk nonsense. Concubine Song said angrily, "You are a person with great blessings, and it is also a great blessing for the mother concubine to have you." ”
"The mother concubine has been in chaos for half a lifetime, but fortunately with you, I have sustenance, but the mother concubine is really not good, and I can't grow up with you, watching you marry a wife and have children. Concubine Song said, "It's the mother concubine who is not good." ”
"It's me who is bad, I'm the one who has a bad life. The fifth prince whined, "Don't persuade me, concubine, and I don't want others to be my adoptive mother." ”
"Don't be tough. Concubine Song said, "Your Majesty will not let me raise you anymore at most, and in the future, you will treat me as an ordinary concubine, and there will always be a time to meet." ”
"No, no, it's all my fault. "The five princes blindly feel sorry for themselves.
Concubine Song couldn't persuade her, so she said helplessly, "How do you believe it, it's not your fault." ”
"The mother went to her father to explain that this matter was not the mother's fault, and asked her father not to punish the mother. The fifth prince said.
"I, I don't dare go. Concubine Song could only tell the truth.
"Then the concubine went to the concubine and said that it was okay. The fifth prince said, "I don't want to be separated from my mother." ”
Concubine Song originally wanted to go with the flow and let His Majesty dispose of it, but when the five princes cried like this, in order not to let the five princes think it was his fault, Concubine Song also had to struggle, which, it was not her fault in the first place.
The fifth prince felt so tired when she touched her eyes, the mother concubine was too cowardly and accepted her fate, this matter was not her fault, she took the initiative to say, maybe her father would not punish her, but she stayed motionless and let it be disposed of, maybe her father was unhappy, and by the way, she was also punished.
Concubine Song treated him well, and he didn't want to have a third concubine.
Tianqing Palace is difficult to enter, but Ronghua Palace is easy to enter. Concubine Song half sat in the reception room of Ronghua Palace, nervous.
Qin Yunyi came in with a shawl, "Concubine Song is a rare guest." ”
"Niangniang, I'm here to make amends. Concubine Song got up and said.
"What are you guilty of?" Qin Yunyi asked, "This really guilty can't be found, this is not guilty, one by one to make amends, it's just funny." ”
"Anyway, the medicine with the problem and the people with the problem are all in my palace, and I can't escape the blame. Concubine Song said, "But Niangniang, I swear, I really don't know anything about this person, and if I lie, I won't be able to become the adoptive mother of the fifth prince." ”
Concubine Song swore by the person she cared about the most.
"It's not my fault with you. Qin Yunyi sighed and said, "This medicine, this person, but it was cut off in your Dill Palace, where did his medicine come from?
