Shoko Gaomen (13)

There was silence in the room, no one spoke, and fifteen years had pushed the distance between the two a little farther.

Li Xiangjun turned his head to look at Gan, who was lying on the couch without saying a word: "What's the matter, hate me?"

Gan suddenly smiled: "No! Can you tell me the truth...... It's already a rarity. ”

"It's still my fault. Li Xiangjun sighed, "Don't blame me, I know yourself better than you." Even if you ask me for help......" she looked down into Gan's eyes and asked, "Are you really relieved?" with your temperament, you will definitely be careful to be watched, so that you can check and fill in the gaps at any time. So, don't be upset about what hasn't happened and won't happen......"

Gan nodded: "Maybe! But it's a thing in this world...... After all, people are no match for heaven. "Just like herself back then, she calculated everything, even if she was calculated by Lin Fanghua, she would have a way to get out, but who would have thought that it would be so coincidental that whoever didn't run into it, but just ran into Prince Heng. It's not what the days are.

Li Xiangjun's lips moved, and he wanted to ask her why she was brought back by the prince since she was not willing, but she didn't ask in the end. What is the difference between knowing and not knowing? She sighed softly, and her shoulders seemed to be loosened: "Knowing that you didn't stand up to me, the grievances in my heart all these years seem to have dissipated all of a sudden." She looked at Gan uncomfortably: "Now...... Is there anything else you want me to do in order to do it?"

Gan Shi said softly: "I didn't expect that when I could use you, I wouldn't be polite to you." ”

Li Xiangjun got up at this time, she knew that if she didn't leave, the Void Daoist would not come in. This bull-nosed old man alchemy pills for the prince is the prince's person, and the prince doesn't want to know what he doesn't want to know, he can't know. She stood up and looked at the blood that came out of the corners of Gan's mouth, and tears came down in the end: "Don't be blindly tough, I told you this the day before you got married, and you didn't take it to heart when you thought about it." Today, I'll tell you again, don't be too tough, women. Be gentle, and suffer less...... Lord Wang...... He used to like you, and as long as you are willing to give him a good face, he will also cherish you...... If nothing else, just for your own daughter, soft...... It doesn't hurt you. ”

Gan looked at Li Xiangjun in surprise and accepted the kindness: "I know ......"

Only then did Li Xiangjun put away the tears on his face, and went out with a wooden face.

Gan closed his eyes, when he came to this job, how could he satisfy himself if he just wanted a better life?

"What were you two muttering just now?" King Heng came in from outside and asked directly at Gan.

Gan's eyes didn't even open: "Just say a few words about the past." ”

"What happened before?" Prince Heng sat on the edge of the couch, "What happened before?"

"Things you never want to remember again. The expression on Gan's face became lighter and lighter, "My parents and relatives are dead, my husband is separated, my daughter is separated, my friends are resentful, and even my childhood sweetheart has changed my heart at that moment...... What is there in this world that will not change, and what else will last forever?"

Prince Heng looked at Gan's face and didn't speak for a long time, until the entourage outside reported that the chief had come, and he said in a low voice: "There is nothing eternal and unchanging in this world. But if you have the ability, you can keep what you want to stay with forever. For example, you and me, when I was the emperor's grandson, I could only watch marrying someone else. But when I became a prince...... I have the power to be willful...... Quan'er ...... That's the beauty of power! With it, you can easily get what you want. So, you behave, get better quickly. We still have a lot of work to do?"

Gan took a deep breath: "Yes...... We still have a lot of work to do. ”

"It's us, it's not us!" Prince Heng chuckled, "You will always be the king's, whether you live or die." ”

Then let's see!

The corners of Gan's mouth curled slightly, and the trace of blood that flowed out of his mouth snaked all the way to his chin, adding a bit of bewitching beauty.

Prince Heng raised his hand and wiped it with his sleeve before he raised his voice and said, "Please come in." ”

Mrs. Chu didn't pay attention to the old lady of the Lin family who wanted to talk to her, but turned around and went directly to the small courtyard where she was temporarily staying.

"You go and tell Liu Wu to go back to the capital immediately, and quickly tell the master about this today. Mrs. Chu sent Mama Bai, "You must tell her in detail, tell him not to forget ......anything," she said, as if she remembered something, and said, "Forget it, I'll write a letter and ask him to send it back directly." I'm afraid he won't be able to tell me. "It's not good for my son to let others know about the matter with the girl of the Qi family, and there are too many mouths, where are there any secrets. It's better to write a letter.

Mama Bai hurriedly sent the girl to put out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, "Madam...... Don't worry, things are already like this, it's useless to rush. ”

Mrs. Chu sighed, and while grinding, she ordered, "Go and invite all the young masters over." I have something to say. Other than that...... I told my family to go down and keep my mouth shut. The girl of the Qi family is the daughter-in-law of Yi'er, and the daughter-in-law of the fourth is the second girl of the Lin family......"

Mama Bai thought of the second girl and sighed slightly. The fourth young master can be regarded as picking up a bargain this time, and he has such a good person.

As soon as the fourth master came back, he saw that it was Mrs. Chu who called him, so he didn't delay, and got up and went over directly. The matter over there really didn't come out so quickly. It's just that I learned about Prince Heng's concubine's miscarriage.

By the time he arrived, Kim Shou-in and Kim Shou-ri had already arrived.

Mrs. Chu came out of the inner room and gave a letter to Mama Bai: "Send it back quickly." ”

Mama Bai hurriedly took it over, bowed her head and retreated.

Mrs. Chu then told the three brothers about the affairs in the hall: "...... I just won't tell you, and the news will spread in a blink of an eye. Therefore, it is better to explain first, and when people in the province ask you, you will know how to answer. At that time, the boss went to make up his mind...... That's for the second child. The fourth child's family affairs, we will settle it when we return to Beijing this time. This can't be changed anymore. is the daughter of the Lin family. As he spoke, he looked at the fourth master, "You are a sensible child, and the second girl of the Lin family is also a good one." It's not an insult to you. ”

The fourth master was actually shocked in his heart, he hadn't come up with a way yet, and Gan, who was suspected of being the future mother-in-law, came to such a hand and directly settled the matter. What Mrs. Chu said was an understatement, but it was not easy to get Mrs. Chu to nod in public. It seems that this Concubine Gan is really bothered.

I just don't know what she thinks, so she will give her biological daughter's life to a concubine.

This incident is coincidental and logical, and people have to wonder what is hidden in this.

For example, the □□ of this incident was Concubine Gan's miscarriage. Not only did she have a miscarriage when she was in addition to the ceremony, but she was also harmed by Prince Duan's side concubine. And this side concubine is a side concubine Qi who has something to do with the Lin family.

These thoughts flashed in his heart, and the fourth master got up and said respectfully: "The marriage of children is the words of the matchmaker of the parents. If the mother thinks it is appropriate, it is naturally appropriate. ”

Mrs. Chu is very satisfied with the attitude of the fourth master, and she knows how to advance and retreat, this is what a concubine should be.

Jin Shouren moved uncomfortably and asked softly, "Then what ......is this?" Can the Qi family agree to the marriage?" he really didn't think about it anywhere else, just thought that if the girl was widowed for the rest of her life, it would be quite pitiful.

Jin Shouli had a smile on his face, he didn't know what to think, and suddenly said: "What is the Qi family, what is our family." To the second brother...... It's not an insult to her. When the second brother was there, he recited it with a glance, who didn't praise the talent...... Isn't the second brother a match for such a girl? In the future, the eldest brother's son, regardless of his concubine, will pass one to the second brother, isn't it okay?"

The fourth master said in his heart, could it be that the third child also knew that Jin Shouren and the girl of the Qi family were tired of it. Otherwise, he would not have deliberately proposed a step-heir, instead of picking two rooms on one shoulder. This can be regarded as blocking Kim Shouren's back road.

In fact, having a stepchild has fewer sequelae than a shoulder-to-shoulder matter. If you pick it on one shoulder, you will mess with the family. Make two women, both ends are big, and they can be commensurate with each other. The future child, a father, is a cousin according to etiquette. When the family is divided, the eldest son can account for seventy percent of the family business, and the rest will be divided according to the head of the house. So much unfairness, isn't this just waiting to make trouble?

Therefore, there is such a thing as shoulder-to-shoulder, but more people choose stepchildren.

In all fairness, Mrs. Chu didn't think so in her heart. When the children of the eldest are all grown up, choose a suitable one, regardless of the concubine, who is her own grandson. When the time comes, it will be the same for the second child.

But who is it this girl from the Qi family. It's a bit like the boss, but if you do something ugly behind your back, it's better to put it on the table.

She waved her hand a little troubled at the moment: "This is all for the future...... Now that you're outside, don't wander around, just stay inside if you're fine. ”

The three of them bowed down and retreated from inside.

"Fourth, I'll go fishing in the back mountain, will you go?" Jin Shouli pulled the fourth master, "Let's go together, there are still a lot of familiar ......"

The fourth master said in a low voice: "Be cautious, this is a practice, why do you want to go fishing? If you want to listen to my advice, it is better to send someone to buy a few buckets of fish fry and release them!"

Jin Shouli patted his head: "I'll send someone away, I'm really almost crooked by these people, it's a big deal!"

The fourth master owed Jin Shouren at this time, went back to his house, and saw Guiwu waiting in the house, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

There was a smile on Guiwu's face: "Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master." "I have a personal relationship with the girl of the Lin family here, and someone over there sent someone directly to his young master, this luck is really amazing.

"Mind your mouth!" The look on the fourth master's face was not relaxed at all, "But what did you inquire about?"

"Didn't the young master ask about Concubine Gan before?" Guiwu put away the smile on his face and said in a low voice, "The Void Dao Chief has already gone to check Concubine Gan's pulse." Somehow, the imperial doctor fell on the way to the back mountain, and went to three in a row, all of which were the same. Therefore, Prince Heng invited the Void Dao Chief ......"

The fourth master said in his heart, this prince is not a fool, and it doesn't count if the victim has a miscarriage, so he is afraid that the child will be saved, and he will block the imperial doctor one by one. Such a low-end and stupid thing was definitely not done by King Duan. This is staring up and down, Prince Duan is just a paste in his head, and the staff around him are all idiots.

Speaking of which, this is more like a bitter trick played by Prince Heng.

"It's windy today, and it's a bit of a headache to stand outside for a day. There is no need to ask for any imperial doctor, just invite the medicine boy in front of the Xudao Chief to prescribe two patches of sweating medicine, and that's it. The fourth master thought about it, and then ordered Guiwu.

Guiwu was stunned for a moment, the young master was uncomfortable, of course this is a big deal, just about to say that he would go down the mountain to invite a doctor, his heart moved, and he seemed to have some understanding, the master was not really uncomfortable, he just wanted to invite the medicine boy to inquire about something.

He understood what he meant, and quickly withdrew.

The medicine boy who is the head of the void road is Tongchen, fourteen or fifteen years old, clean and clean, and he smiles when he sees people. To be honest, this kid doesn't look like a little Taoist, but like a little second in a businessman.

When I came in, I saw the fourth master and bowed my head. The fourth master told him to get up, "Don't make a big salute, I know that your master is a busy person, and I am not a big symptom, just take a look." ”

Tongchen respectfully stepped forward to check the pulse of the fourth master, and the expression on his face was a lot more serious.

The fourth master's nose moved slightly, Tongchen's body had a smell of medicine, and he could really distinguish this smell of medicine, if he didn't smell it wrong, this should be medicine for women to recuperate after giving birth. His brows furrowed slightly, Concubine Gan's miscarriage was an emergency, how could a Taoist priest prepare postpartum medicine in advance. Even if you know that Concubine Qi is pregnant, you should be a tocolytic.

Unless, this old man knew in advance that Concubine Gan would have a miscarriage.

See how he knows?

If he is Prince Duan's person, and he is a cronie among his cronies, then knowing in advance that Prince Duan might do it is a reluctant explanation. But if this is the case, how could Prince Heng ask Lao Dao to diagnose Concubine Gan. Doctor, this must be absolutely trustworthy. He didn't think that Prince Heng couldn't even figure out the details of this old way.

Then, there is only one truth left, that is, this so-called 'miscarriage', I am afraid that it is also a self-directed and self-acting bitter ploy.

The fourth master restrained his mind and jokingly said: "Your master is a well-known power, and now looking at your appearance, he has also gained a bit of truth." ”

Tongchen withdrew the hand that diagnosed the pulse, and there was nothing wrong with the young master's body. But since people say it's cold, you have to treat it according to the cold. I'm afraid these boys are trying to be lazy. He didn't poke it, and said with a smile: "Master, this is a joke." It's just that you can memorize two common recipes, and you help the master sort out a medicinal herb on weekdays, where do you have any ability? Don't see the wind for the past two days, and there will be no big problem. ”

The fourth master nodded: "You will be tricky, using ginger, it will not be bad to eat horizontally and vertically." The Taoist is also a master, why did he accept such a slippery apprentice as you. Be careful, I'll go to your master tomorrow to complain. ”

Tongchen smiled: "Why bother to scare the little one." If the master wants to seek medical treatment, this elixir for strengthening the body, the master does have it. It's just that he hasn't been idle recently, and his old man is busy serving the nobles. Wait a few days, the master will come to the door ......"

The fourth master has a number in his heart. This old Taoist is Prince Heng's person, and he doesn't mean to hide it from others at all. For something as important as the pill, Prince Heng would naturally guard against King Duan's attack, so it was even more unlikely that Lao Dao would have anything to do with Prince Duan.

When he got what he wanted, he asked Guixi to give him a reward of silver and give it away.

When Guixi came back, he told the fourth master: "As soon as it was sent to the door, there was an errand boy, and I heard that it meant that Tongchen was asked to prepare medicine to invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis." Even the little ones are confused, and they feel that this is wrong. This miscarriage, how can you use blood-invigorating medicine?"

How can you use the medicine to invigorate blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis? Do a full set of plays, since you have prepared the medicine for small postpartum conditioning, what do you do in one fell swoop?

If you configure it for others, you don't have to be in such a hurry to find someone here.

The fourth master couldn't figure it out, so he didn't want to throw it down for the time being. Either way, it's a happy day.

And at the moment of the Lin family, the old lady and Lin Chang sat opposite each other. Yun looked left and right, and saw that the mother and son didn't speak, and there was something wrong in their hearts, this was to prevent themselves.

She stood up and said in a low voice, "I asked someone to buy a lot of fruit from the farmer at the bottom of the mountain, and I'll serve it." So saying, he withdrew.

The old lady looked at the Yun clan who had withdrawn, and said dissatisfiedly: "Look at her...... The housewife didn't have the style of the housewife. She took the initiative to inquire about the marriage of her children, can I still ask her to sit here and listen. ”

Lin Changqing frowned: "When Gan was there that day, you didn't think she was good. Now that it's up to the Yun family, you think the Yun family is not good. Then who are you satisfied with? Are you satisfied with Aunt Zhao? Also, apart from Aunt Zhao and your sister, who have you been satisfied with?"

The old lady's face was a little bad: "Are you complaining about me as a mother?"

Lin Changqing sneered: "How did the Gan clan go? What did you say at the beginning? The words of the original oath are still in your ears, mother!

The corners of the old lady's mouth pursed, and she looked at Lin Changqing suspiciously: "Do you know anything?"

"Is there something my mother is hiding from me, I can't know?" Lin Changqing looked at the old lady and asked.

The old lady pondered for a long time before she said, "Don't always dwell on the past." This is already the case, and this is the ...... The second girl can't complain about you and me......"

"I'm afraid of the arrangement of Duo Ya, you would rather ask her to complain about you, but also give her a better arrangement. Didn't you do the same to your son at the beginning? I'd rather complain, but you never relented when you made a move. When it comes to the second girl, what's wrong?...... you're a little too biased," the sarcasm on Lin Changqing's face became more and more intense, "Since this is the case, the old lady will leave the family affairs alone in the future." You just take care of your sister and niece. ”

The old lady's face changed: "What do you mean by this?"

Lin Changqing got up and raised his feet and left: "What you think it means is what it means." ”

It left the old lady panting breathlessly.

Mama Mei sighed, and stepped forward to stroke the old lady's chest: "Uncle is just angry for a while, why are you still really angry?"

The old lady waved her hand: "I know...... Sooner or later, the Nagan clan will be separated from our mother and son...... That's what I said when she walked in...... Now that it's all like this, she's still ...... Woe to the water!

Mama Mei's hands stiffened, and she really couldn't tell who was the trouble. Who caused the woe to whom, these are really two theories.

In the next room, Mama Chen watched Lin Changqian go out with a bad face at the window, and then turned to the Yun family and nodded: "Let's go." ”

Yun sighed: "You go back to the house now, and talk to the second girl about this, which can be regarded as a gesture of goodwill." ”

Mama Chen answered, and then asked in a low voice, "That Concubine Gan...... It's really not ......."

The cold light in Yun's eyes flashed: "What do you do with so much, do whatever you want to do, take care of your mouth." ”

Mama Chen quickly shrank her head, and when she went out, she happened to meet Mama Mei hurriedly walking out. The two tacitly walked together, but neither said what they would do when they went back.

You don't need to ask to know that Mama Mei was sent by the old lady to rush back home to pass the message to her aunt.

That night, it rained again. The charcoal basin was lit, but the room still felt a little cold.

Lin Yutong simply asked the girls to burn the kang too, nested on the kang early, and fell asleep in a daze.

When the hour was nearing time, the wind blew up, and the branches of the trees struck on the lattice, stirring up the good dreams of the people. As soon as she opened her eyes and was about to get up to drink some hot water, she heard a noise in the courtyard, followed by a few girls outside.

She simply sat up, put on her clothes, and lifted the curtain.

"Girl, you're awake too. Sanxi walked in with a jacket and an oil lamp in his hand, and as she entered, the room suddenly lit up.

Lin Yutong's eyes narrowed, and he had to adapt to the light, so he asked, "Three watches in the middle of the night, what's wrong?"

"Mama Chen is back, and now she is changing her clothes. I sent the little girl and said that she would come and talk to the girl later. Sanxi said, and his voice lowered: "Mama Mei also came back and went directly to Chunheyuan." ”

Chunheyuan is where Lin Fanghua's mother and daughter live.

Lin Yutong was shocked, it seems that the matter is not small. She whispered, "Ask what was said over there." ”

Sanxi responded, called Xiangli to come in to accompany Lin Yutong, and she went out to arrange things herself.

Mama Chen came quickly, Lin Yutong asked her to sit on the edge of the charcoal basin, and personally handed over the hot tea.

"Don't dare to bother the second girl. Mama Chen was polite, but she was satisfied with Lin Yutong's attitude. Only then did he tell Lin Yutong the cause and effect of the incident in detail: "...... Madame told the girl not to think about it, the fourth son was actually a good candidate. Although it was Concubine Gan who made trouble this time, for the girl, it may be a blessing in disguise......" As she spoke, she couldn't help but think of that Concubine Gan...... Her eyes involuntarily looked at the second girl in front of her.

Lin Yutong was naturally pleasantly surprised at first, and she didn't expect that she could solve this marriage in a foolish way, but she was so lucky that she was bumped?

"Marriage is a big event, the order of parents. If my father and wife think it's appropriate, then it's appropriate, and there is no reason for me to interject. Madame can send Mama to run overnight, I have made a note of this feeling. As he spoke, he glanced at the full moon, "Bring ten taels of silver to Mama, and then send someone to send Mama back in person." Remember to ask someone to light the kang, and Ming'er asked the doctor to take a look at Mama's body, but don't catch a cold. ”

The full moon responded, and Mama Chen's heart became more and more comfortable.

After sending Mama Chen away, Sanxi came back: "...... The girl waiting outside couldn't hear clearly, but she still listened to her aunt's loud scolding words. My aunt scolded that Gan side concubine...... Any slut is a slut, and he is ruthless to his own daughter...... What kind of retribution for a slut, a miscarriage deserves something like that......"

Sanxi's words didn't speak, and Lin Yutong froze instantly.

What does it mean that these words are connected together? Why does Lin Fanghua scold a slut to a person who has no intersection? Why is he ruthless to his own daughter?

Concubine Gan ...... Biological daughter...... The original owner's biological mother, Gan Shi......

These intermittent messages were strung together in Lin Yutong's mind like a chain......

The author has something to say: two more later
