Ambergris incense burned in the imperial study, and cigarettes curled on the gilded incense burner.

"The eldest son of the minister is still adrift in the sea, his life and death are uncertain, and his whereabouts are unknown; The daughter who was holding it in the palm of her hand was kidnapped by the guests who came to the door... The minister just walked around the rivers and lakes twice when he was young, how could anyone be suspicious of the minister's head? Qin Weien complained to the emperor in the imperial study, his tone was sad, crying old tears, his shoulders trembled, and he looked pitiful.

The emperor looked at his pitiful appearance, and then looked at Pei Gu, who had been standing next to him sullenly, with his mouth tightly pursed, and only felt that his head was a little big.

His son, too, is floating on the sea!

But after all, the idea of getting on the boat was made by King Xiao, and Qin Yuan and Xiao Zheng just followed the thief ship. From time to time, news came intermittently from the sea, and after a while the Jiangnan sailor said that some fishermen had seen the boat in the waters near the Wa Kingdom; After a while, fishermen along the coast of Shandong also said that they seemed to have seen a sea boat in the shape of a Jiangnan sailor in the bay.

The news is plausible and ambiguous.

"You say—how do you want me to give you an explanation for this?" The emperor's brows were furrowed, "Your precious girl... After all, it's a girl, and there is no evidence for this matter after all, even if there is evidence, how can you shout it out with a big grin? ”

The girl's family was robbed in her yard, and the civil and military ministers were involved behind it, even if he had the heart to give an explanation, the girl of Qin Weien's family... Wouldn't there be no more fame to speak of?

Pei Gu, who had been silent next to him, suddenly stepped forward, slowly raised his arm, pressed his left hand to the right, and made a serious salute to the emperor.

Yesterday he told the truth to Hui Zhi in the carriage - the countermeasure of him and Qin Weien's quasi-Weng son-in-law was to stab the matter in front of the emperor and ask for a marriage.

So Pei Gu was dull and silent, Qin Weien was in tears, and the emperor finally took the bait - "The Empress Dowager has been talking to me about this for a long time, and wants you to get married earlier, but now it's not a ready-made reason?" That's it. After a while, I will take a trip to the Cixiao Palace. ”

When Hui Zhi, who was quietly waiting at home, was embroidering in the house, she didn't expect that the palace would post a post - she named Hui Zhi to enter the palace, and the Queen Mother wanted to see her.

Hui Zhi is a teenage girl with no rank. It's not a big makeup, but according to the palace system, I cut a few gorgeous and dignified clothes. Hui Zhi changed into a concubine-colored Su embroidered straight-sleeved long gown, a twelve-picture Hunan skirt with a wide gold skirt, and painted with fat powder on her eyebrows. rode into the palace in the carriage of the Cheng'an Houfu.

After coming and going, the Empress Dowager stayed for lunch, and returned to the house after ten o'clock at noon.

Immediately, the will to give marriage also came down, and the Ministry of Rites quickly planned the date of marriage, November, February, April, there were excellent days calculated by Qin Tianjian, and the Empress Dowager was happy, thinking that there was a brother in front of Huizhi who was not married. With a wave of his hand, he pointed to the day of February 16, and began to prepare. Only then did Hui Zhi understand what Pei Gu was talking about.

There is nothing more obvious than the royal marriage, how much the two families who are about to get married have won the emperor's trust and dependence.

As soon as the news of the marriage came out, one stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the prince accidentally broke a whole set of Youlong blue and white porcelain tea cups before he stopped his high-spirited anger.

No matter how upside down the outside is, Hui Zhi stays at home by herself.

Brother Hao has been washing for three days for a few days. But looking at the fact that Tong has just been born, and even today and yesterday, it is very different. The milk doll has big eyes and bright black eyes. When staring at Hui Zhi, it makes people feel that their hearts melt.

Qin Weien hid the disappearance of Hui Zhi from the Qin family, and naturally also from the Wang family, who was in confinement, Mrs. Hou slept in the house for a whole afternoon after noon, had dinner in the evening, and asked about the situation of her daughter and youngest son. Linglong next to her only got the news that "the sixth girl is tired of receiving guests, so she went back early to rest." Then he said to the youngest son, "The little young master has just eaten milk, and he is asleep at this time." ”

Wang's heart was at ease, and he turned his head and fell asleep again.

I slept until the next morning, and when I woke up, Hui Zhi had already changed her clothes in the Yuhua Pavilion and bathed and rested.

Wang's has just given birth, and the morning and dusk province is naturally exempt.

But now that Hui Zhi was brought back by Pei Gu Quanxu, the two maids in the Beicheng Hutong were handed over to Bai Huwei for interrogation, and the news of his brother Qin Yuan Pei Gu was able to fish out a few useful and credible pieces of news from the chaotic "witnesses" of fishermen from all over the country, and the days suddenly became peaceful and joyful.

Especially after the holy decree of marriage was given, Hui Zhi was completely idle - the six rites to be passed, the royal marriage, the Ministry of Rites naturally had someone to take care of it; The dowry dowry, someone also drew up a list early to send, Mrs. Hou will give birth, the elders took over Hui Zhi's dowry naturally, Hui Zhi learned that Mrs. Sun organized the wedding for her, she was stunned for a long time, and she embroidered a scroll of Buddhist scriptures and gave it to her old man, chatting about her heart.

Even the wedding dress was tailor-made for her by the embroidery lady in the palace, and the piles were originally related to their own weddings, but they suddenly became royal affairs, and Hui Zhile was at ease, and she ran to Jiamutang every day to talk to her mother, and then helped take care of her younger brother.

Children are the same every day, and when the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, Brother Hao'er's eyebrows and eyes are a little long, and he doesn't cry or make trouble when he is full, he is a very well-behaved child, often lying in the cradle and spitting bubbles, with a pink little face, and small arms and legs like lotus roots - Hui Zhi has always been the youngest one in the long house, and now she sees a guy who is younger than her, and naturally likes to be with him every day, so after a few days, even Jiang Caiqiong can't help but shake her head when she sees her, "You are a girl's family, Why is there a smell of children's milk on my body... It's really milky and not dry. ”

Hui Zhi changed her way every day to find some children's toys to tease him, the rattle of the lambskin, the small clothes and shoes made of soft fabric...... The days come and go, and they go by very quickly.

Wang looked at the daughter in the house who was learning how to hold the child with the nurse, and was worried about the eldest son, and it was inevitable to think more after giving birth, seeing that it was about to be the time of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, where Qin Yuan was, Wang didn't know, and his eyes were a little sour.

The atmosphere in the Cheng'an Hou Mansion was a rare peace and joy - except that there was no definite news from Qin Yuan, which made people worry from time to time. And a few people who were nagging by everyone in the capital did encounter some trouble.

Fortunately, on the evening of August 12, Qin Weien came to see the Wang family with a letter - "Mingyuan Tongxiaowang's ship has arrived at Tianjin Port, and I have already sent someone to pick him up, and the family banquet on the 15th should still be in time." ”

Wang's eyebrows were overjoyed, and his heart was so determined that he even used an extra bowl of porridge for dinner. (To be continued.) )
