Chapter 127: Gift of Concubine
Jiang Li's eyes darkened. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he looked down at the woman in his arms, his breath was long, his eyebrows and eyes were good, and the sunlight leaking in between the windows was beating on her eyelashes, like a well-behaved child.
At that moment, Jiang Li actually felt extremely relieved. Peace of mind until tiredness hits.
There is no longer a chess game, no longer a game of interests, only the warm fragrance in his arms, as if he is pregnant with the whole world.
It's early afternoon. The snow stopped. The winter sun peeked in through the green screens, illuminating the light dust floating in the air in the building.
Jiang Li let out a long sigh, leaned back, and even leaned on the wenge case to take a nap.
The floating chacha building is quiet and silent, and the plum fragrance under the eaves steals the soul. The snowflakes squeezed a crack in the window sash, and two figures could be faintly seen in the room.
The two are snuggled together, and it is good to be quiet.
December 10. Snow. The north country is frozen for thousands of miles, covered in silver, and Chang'an City is covered with layers of thick snow quilts. The forest between heaven and earth is cold, and the north wind is biting.
The smell of the New Year is getting stronger and stronger. The mischievous children couldn't take it anymore and began to set off firecrackers in the snow, shaking the snow on the eaves. Every household cut the window flowers, opened the altar to slaughter Su wine, and hung up brand new peach charms in the streets and alleys.
However, a holy decree alarmed the Great Wei and the Xin Mansion.
At the banquet held for him by the emperor, the general Lu Huan actually took a fancy to the talented Xin family. Before he could speak, the thoughtful emperor Li He took the initiative to give it away.
A holy decree, a beautiful woman to send each other: I miss the talented Xin Shi Yun Gong and let go, and I am deeply heartfelt. However, considering his humble background, it will eventually be inappropriate. Today, I will send him to learn etiquette from Mrs. Xiangguo, and learn women's virtues to show everyone's grace.
The world was in an uproar. Mrs. Xuan Guo is Lu Huan's wife, saying that she asked her to teach Xin the etiquette, but in fact, she gave Xin to Lu Huan as a concubine.
Give his concubine to his subordinates, even if the emperor can afford to lose this face, the Xin Cai people who are a maid and two husbands can't afford to lose this face.
Therefore, when a carriage with flowers and embroidered with the characters of Ming Huang Xi crossed the streets of Chang'an and went to the Lu family's mansion in Chang'an, the people along the way closed the windows in disgust and hid in the cracks to point and point.
However, the sedan chair stopped at the gate of Xinfu, Xin Fang got off the sedan chair, withdrew the maid attendant, and looked at Xin Yi on the steps of Xinfu with a complicated expression.
"Cairen sent someone to the mansion early to inform him, saying that he wanted to see me one last time, I don't know what's going on?" Xin Yi didn't step forward, she kept her distance from Xin Fang, and her tone didn't have a trace of waves.
The Xin Fang in front of him, his ordinary face, was so pale that it was terrifying. The willow eyebrows are the best snails, and the red lips are the tribute Nian Nujiao, but they are like being put on a human skin, and the little face is more and more bloodless.
She wore a mink and a rabbit, a red silk jacket, agarwood and gold makeup and satin cranes, and a red palace brocade skirt, but she could only see the clothes fluttering in the north wind, showing how skinny the delicate body under the gorgeous clothes was.
"Xinyi. Xin Fang stepped forward and called Xin Yi's name, "Don't call me a talent." I'm just a shiny plaything now, being sent here and there. ”
Xin Yi's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he didn't answer for a while. In the chess game, I can't help myself, not to mention the emperor who is overthrown by five surnames and seven hopes, the world can't hold it, and where do you care about a woman.
In the final analysis, Xin Fang chose her life from the moment she entered the palace, and no one could help or complain.
"I know you've always held a grudge against me. I also hold a grudge against you. Xin Fang's eloquent words, straightforward and open-minded words, made Xin Yi unaccustomed to it for a moment, "You are a businessman, and you always cause trouble, as the eldest daughter of Xinfu, I am worried that you will bring disaster to Xinfu one day and tarnish Xin's name, so I always want to drive you out of the mansion, is it wrong?"
Xin Yi just wanted to reply, but was interrupted by Xin Fang: "Don't talk about those big truths. You will answer me, if you talk about the three outlines and five constants, is it wrong?"
The Great Wei Gangchang is respectful and humble. The concubine is half a master, and the concubine is a slave. This slave is not worried and causes trouble, and the concubine naturally has the right to expel the concubine from the house, even if it is half a blood sister.
From the perspective of the Xin Mansion, it is a major matter to protect the peace of the whole house, and from the perspective of the Xin family, it is the right thing to protect the name of the whole family. Whether from ethics or righteousness, Xin Fang's approach is beyond reproach, although it is intolerable in sentiment, but the word sentiment is not within the scope of "Compendium".
Xin Yi's eyes flashed: "If you talk about the three outlines and five constants, you are not wrong." ”
"That's it. Xin Fang smiled, and the snowflakes hit the corners of her lips, making the splendid rouge more and more dim, "I Xin Fang doesn't have any big ideals, and I'm not like my grandmother or the sixth sister, one day this chess and that chess." I am a layman, and this life is only for two words: Gangchang. Although it is vulgar and vulgar, even old and rigid, is there something wrong with that?"
Xin Yi was stunned. Xin Fang asked her so bluntly that she forgot her answer for a while.
In the previous life, she may still remember Tsunatsu, but in this life, she vowed to change her life, and she has long forgotten these two words.
She thought of Xin Fang, who she knew, although her words were harsh and vicious, and she repeatedly wanted to drive her out of the house. But De Rong said that she was a worker, three from four virtues, but she never made a mistake, and even did a good job, which won the praise of the whole house.
For example, teaching my sister's daughter, the morning and dusk will not fall for a day, and my father's words will never say half a word, such as meeting outsiders cold-eyed Xinfu, she can also bring out the eldest daughter's shelf, maintain the family lintel, such as taking the initiative to enter the palace, painstakingly operate, and fight for a splendid future for Xinfu everywhere.
Xin Fang is not a good person. But she is the eldest daughter who is most in line with the three outlines and five constants.
Although there are thousands of kinds of disdain and cheesiness, it is undeniable that there is nothing wrong with doing it in life.
"Let me ask you, Xin Yi, is this wrong?" Seeing that Xin Yi was silent, Xin Fang's voice came again, her tone was very calm, without the slightest trace of confusion and vacillation.
"There's nothing wrong with that. Xin Yi exhaled heavily, "You can practice the Three Principles and Five Constants to this point in your life, and you have never been confused or hesitated, in this regard, you live better than many people in the world." ”
"Everyone has their own way of living. There are high and low, high and low, but there is probably no right or wrong. Xin Fang's smile became stronger, "I sent a message to the mansion earlier, did you bring the rouge you brought?"
Xin Yi nodded and took out a small box from his arms.
The small round box is carved with Zhilan peony, decorated with emerald feather pearl shells, and when opened, it is a box of rouge. The color is bright red and exudes a rich fragrance.
Famous products in Beijing, Tiangong Qiao. It was Xin Yichu's engagement with his eldest grandson, and Xin Fang's congratulatory gift to Xin Yi.
Xin Fang took the rouge, glanced at it, and looked at Xin Yi with a smile: "You have never used it." ”
"I don't like fat powder in the first place. looks good, and doesn't care too much. So it has been put on hold. Xin Yi explained lightly. The rouge sent by Xin Fang, even if the color is bright, she is stumbling when she uses it.
"That's good. Now the convenience is returned to the original owner, and it is returned to Zhao. Xin Fang's face became a little strange, and before Xin Yi had time to be suspicious, she muttered to herself, "Xin Yi, do you know? There is a lot of musk in this rouge. If you continue to use it for the last month, it is enough to damage the woman's uterus and cut off the offspring. ”
