Chapter 221
Ling Jue pushed open the door and entered the study, and stepped forward to salute.
Ying Lanfeng sat down and asked, "Why don't you eat and drink in front, is there something wrong?"
Ling Jue walked up to him and said, "There is something I want to tell my teacher, there was a colleague from the Hanlin Academy at our table before, and when we were chatting, he said something, and I was interested. β
Ying Lanfeng motioned for him to sit down, and asked why.
Ling Jue said: "He said that a Wang who was released to Taizhou, because of what happened, he died of illness recently, leaving a pair of children, no one to take care of them, and no one dared to take care of them, the situation was very miserable, as if he was going to be classified as an official slave." β
Ying Lanfeng was still a little unconcerned, so he said: "This is also a common thing,...... Yes, which Lord is it?"
Ling Jue said: "If it's someone else, it's okay, this Lord Wang, surnamed Wang Kmun, I vaguely remember when my teacher was in Taizhou before...... I was taken care of by him, so I paid attention and wanted to talk to my teacher. β
At the beginning, Lin Shenzhou was in Taizhou and disposed of the prefect of Taizhou, so he asked Wang Kexun to act as an agent for Taizhou affairs...... It also created the "Ying Gong Canal".
Ying Lanfeng was surprised when he heard this, and wrinkled his eyebrows and said: "It turned out to be him? A few days ago, I really heard that he had something, just because it was indeed a crime of dereliction of duty, and it was not good to intercede with him, but I didn't expect to die of illness so soon?"
Ling Jue nodded and said, "I also think that the teacher probably doesn't know about this." β
Ying Lanfeng thought about it and sighed: "You really pay attention, I was in Taizhou before, and I did lose him, so everyone was an official in the same dynasty...... Now that the deceased is gone, how can he watch his children fall into trouble......"
Ying Lanfeng thought quickly for a while, and knew that it was no further ado, so he got up and went out, called Zhaocai, and said to him: "Quickly send someone to Taizhou to inquire about the fate of the two children of the former Taizhou prefect Wang, and be sure to protect them well, and not treat them badly." "Beckon the fortune and took the command, and went.
Ying Lanfeng came back and said to Ling Jue: "You have to be careful, otherwise you will miss this matter, and if you know it in the future, I am afraid that I will not be able to get over it in my heart." β
Ling Jue had already gotten up at this moment, and when he heard the words, he said: "I guess the teacher is a righteous person, if he knows, he will definitely not stand by, so he came in in a hurry and said a word." β
Ying Lanfeng's eyes were full of relief, raised his hand and patted him lightly on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You really understand my mind more and more. β
Originally from Ling Jue worship in Ying Lanfeng Gate, the ministers in the court have dealt with each other, the two often go out and go together, Ling Jue is a person who can't be more transparent, so he acts in line with people's hearts everywhere, and he can't find the slightest bit bad, sometimes Ying Lanfeng can't think of it, he will also pay attention to the points from the side.
Originally, because of the truth, Ying Lanfeng was only afraid that he would become alienated from him...... Unexpectedly, there was no difference, fortunately, Ling Jue was still Princess Qingyan again, and her identity was much more noble than Huaizhen, Ying Lanfeng thought in his heart: "This is just a matter of each having his own home." Ling Jue is such an outstanding junior, with a golden branch and jade leaves, but it is more appropriate. β
When Ling Jueyin came, he saw that the door was closed, and he was afraid of delaying Ying Lanfeng's affairs, so he said, "If the teacher still has something, I will go back first." β
Ying Lanfeng loved him very much, and when he saw that his face was slightly red, he said softly: "You go first, you are naturally shallow, let them persuade you again, and don't eat too much wine." β
Ling Jue said: "I know. Then he raised his hand and saluted, then turned and went out, and closed the door properly, and the sound of his footsteps went away.
Ying Lanfeng saw that the person was gone again, so he took out the moon devouring wheel again, looked at it carefully under his eyes, and said in his heart: "Huaizhen is different from others when he is a child, and he rarely asks me for anything, but this time, it is unprecedented to ask for this object...... Why the hell?"
Ying Lanfeng looked at it for a moment, and then thought: "In the future, if you meet with Mr. Zhu again, you will have to ask for advice...... Fortunately, it has been handed down smoothly and profitably, so it must be stored properly. β
Ying Lanfeng walked to the edge of the bookshelf, looked at it for a while, and had a little calculation in his heart.
But he said that Ling Jue returned to the front hall, sat down and ate tea for a while, and listened to a few gossips from everyone.
Seeing from a distance in front of the seat, Xiao Tang and Guo Jianyi pushed the cup and changed the lamp, Ling Jue looked at it for a while, then snorted lightly, but heard Tang Shao next to him say, "Where did you go before?"
Ling Jue said, "Find a teacher to say something." β
Tang Shao followed his eyes, and he also saw that side, and said with a low smile: "What is the matter between the third uncle and Lord Guo? Is it really good, or is it ......?"
Ling Jue lowered his eyes and said, "I'm afraid that your third uncle wants to get drunk Guo Shilang." β
Tang Shao raised his eyebrows, looked at it carefully for a while, and sure enough, he saw a few clues, so he smiled at him again and said, "I should be...... What kind of toast to Guo Shilang for no reason. β
Ling Jue didn't pay attention to it, Tang Shao said to him: "Yes, I had a treat at home the day before yesterday, why didn't you go?"
Ling Jue said lightly: "My brother can go, you don't have to go as a family." β
Tang Shao asked, "Are you still worried about my third uncle?"
Ling Jue shook his head and said, "Where to speak, now it's just a matter of each other." β
Tang Shao looked at him for a long time, knowing that he had a lot on his mind, and it was inconvenient to say more after all, so he only bowed his head and ate wine.
Not to mention that everyone is lively outside, and to say that Huaizhen is inside, talking to everyone, in addition to Ying Yuronglan and others, even Princess Qingyan is also there, originally King Xi's Mansion Guo Bailu is also going to arrive, just because King Xi is still at home, so he can't be empty, just send someone over to say hello to the old lady.
said that Huaizhen returned because of his departure, so Li Xianshu asked her, "What did your father tell you to do?"
Huai Zhen said: "irrelevant, no big thing reads();." β
Li Xianshu didn't reason, thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "Look at your cousin's little dog, isn't it fun?"
Huai Zhen glanced at it and couldn't help but smile: "Mother, do you really want to give this child this nickname? Even if my cousin likes it, Sister Yu can also agree?"
It turned out that because Li Huo and Ying Yu's child was full of moon, they naturally wanted to name it, so Grandma Xu gave the child a cheap name to support her in accordance with the custom of the family, so she also called him a puppy baby.
Li Xianshu said: "Yu'er is marrying a chicken and a dog and a dog, and I know that it is for the good of the baby, she is still happy in her heart, I don't believe you just ask her." β
Huai Zhen also knew that Ying Yu married Li Huo and gave birth to a dog baby, so he changed his previous naughty temperament, revealing a little tenderness. What's more, Li Huo's name is Tuwa, and his son is called Dog Baby, Ying Yu naturally loves Wu and Wu, and he likes it very much, so he doesn't need to ask.
Huaizhen was silent because of laughter, and Li Xianshu saw that there was no one left and right, so she asked in a low voice: "Ah Zhen, you have been married to Yi'er for many days...... Can ......"
Before he finished speaking, Huai Zhen already understood, so he turned his head and said, "No ......"
Li Xianshu had no choice but to stop, thinking that Tang Yi was not young anymore...... After this year, Huaizhen is also seventeen, and it is indeed a good plan...... However, seeing that Huaizhen was not willing to say, it was inconvenient for Li Xianshu to talk more.
What's more, she and Ying Lanfeng also talked about this matter in private, although she pity Xiao Tang for being so old, but Huaizhen is so much younger than him after all, and her body is not good, so she is reluctant to ask her to suffer first.
When Lee Hyun-sook also stopped, he went to take care of other female relatives again. Huaizhen sat alone, took a sip of wine, and felt a little bored for no reason.
At this time, Ying Cui went to talk to Ying Yu, and Huai Zhen sat for a while, and then saw Princess Qingyan coming over and said, "Third young grandmother." β
Huai Zhen hurriedly got up and saluted, and said, "I've seen the palace." β
Princess Qingyan held her up and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, we have to call our sisters and sisters? β
Huai Zhen was also called "sister", and Princess Qingyan said: "We had a treat in our house the day before yesterday, why didn't my sister go?"
Huai Zhen said: "Those two days were not good...... I didn't go out, and I ask for forgiveness. β
Princess Qingyan smiled and said, "It's okay, in fact, I also know, after all, Tang Shilang was injured in order to protect the prince...... I know that you can't let him go, but now Tang Shilang is okay?"
Huai Zhen also smiled slightly, and said, "Thank you sister for your concern, he is already well, so he came back with him today." β
Princess Qingyan nodded and said, "Tang Shilang is a capable person outside, but he is so compassionate...... I also went to Xiwangfu to see the third brother before, although I didn't see his injury, but I was very sad to see him lose weight, if it wasn't for Tang Shilang this time, I was afraid that the third brother would have ...... early."
When Princess Qingyan said this, she couldn't help but think of King Xi's pale and haggard appearance, and his former bright and smiling appearance, judging the two of them, so her eyes turned red.
Huai Zhen hurriedly persuaded: "The palace is blessed, and it has turned the corner to safety, and it will be all right now...... Princess, don't be sad. β
Princess Qingyan nodded and said, "I was born in the royal family, and the affection between brothers and sisters is weak...... The relationship with the third brother is the best, and I often think about saying thank you to Tang Shilang in person, but I didn't have the opportunity to meet, but fortunately, I saw my sister today, and I told you the same reads();γ β
Huaizhen said: "Don't dare." What's more, the third master has always had a good relationship with Prince Xi, whether it is public or private, he has to do his best to protect the prince. β
Qingyan stopped this sentence before laughing again and said, "I also know this, I always can't get over it in my heart, I have to say thank you." β
Huai Zhen smiled: "In this case, I will tell the third master what the princess means when I go back." β
The two of them said this, Huaizhen carefully looked at Princess Qingyan's behavior, words and deeds, but it was quite gratifying, Princess Qingyan sat for a while, and then went back to sit and greeted the old lady.
In an instant, Ying Yu over there finished talking to Ying Cui, only to see that Ying Cui's face was not very good, Huaizhen was suspicious, and when he saw Ying Yu bowing his head to eat wine, Huaizhen called out and asked, "What's the matter?"
Ying Yu saw her ask, so she whispered: "My sister complained to me." As he spoke, his face was slightly annoyed.
It turned out that although Ying Cui was married, she only had one daughter, so in the past few years, her family was very anxious, and she got two concubines in a row, and one of them was lucky and gave birth to a son.
However, since then, Ying Cui has become more and more inferior, and she refuses to speak, so the little concubine is favored, and she becomes more and more arrogant, and Ying Cui is a little angry openly and secretly.
At first, Ying Cui and Ying Yu were very knotted, and they refused to pay attention to her, but Ying Yu married Li Huo, and Li Huo was a competitive person.
In the end, it was a sister, taking advantage of the New Year, Ying Cui couldn't help it, so she hesitated and told Ying Yu about it. Ying Yu's temperament has changed a lot since she got married, but in the end she is also an urgent child, seeing her sister angry, she naturally can't bear it, but after all, this is a family matter, no matter how anxious she is, she can't, when Ying Yu only said to Huaizhen, and said: "My sister still envy me...... But what about daughters, if they give birth to a daughter, they have to take a concubine? If a concubine can't give birth to a son, can she still take ten of them? What a bastard and ignorant person. β
Huaizhen listened and hung his head silently. Ying Yu was annoyed for a long time, and sighed again: "My sister's temperament is a little soft, I'm afraid that this anger will still be bearable." β
Huaizhen said: "I don't understand, no matter whether the birth is a man or a woman, they are all children, do you have to give birth to a son?"
When Ying Yu heard this, she was touched by her heart, so she sighed faintly and said, "Do you remember how my mother went?"
Huaizhen's heart jumped suddenly, Ying Yu was a good day in the first month, and it was not good to always mention those, so he said: "That's it, not every family is those bastards...... For example, like the second uncle, doesn't he also love you the most? There is also a soil baby, if I give birth to a girl this time, he naturally likes it, if he still wants a son, I will give birth to him again...... but they are not allowed to take concubines. β
Huaizhen was a little sad in his heart, but after hearing these frivolous words, he couldn't help but laugh again, and nodded and said, "Very much." β
It was early afternoon, and some of the guests had already retired one after another, and because Ling Jue was Ying Lanfeng's protΓ©gΓ©, Xiao Tang was his son-in-law...... Therefore, the two families left later, but Guo Jianyi was so drunk by Xiao Tang that he was a little drunk, so he went early.
Zhihuai really wanted to leave, so Princess Qingyan accompanied her out together, and said goodbye, Ling Jue was also going out at this time, and waited aside when she saw this.
The two of them talked for a while, Huaizhen turned around and was about to get into the car, Xiao Tang nodded to Ling Jue with a smile, Ling Jue raised his hand, and sent each other.
The two of them returned home in an instant, and Huai Zhen told Xiao Tang what Princess Qingyan meant, and Xiao Tang said: "The sixth princess has a heart, and she has more to accept her love." He also said: "I haven't seen King Xi today, and I don't know how he is today, whether the pain is better, but I should take a look at the reads();." β
Huai Zhen saw that he seemed to be going to go, so he said: "How many people are taking care of the Xiwang Mansion now, not that there are about four doctors who are not leaving, it can be seen that the emperor is extremely concerned, why should you go again." Since you have the heart to visit the prince, can you see if you are doing well? β
Xiao Tang said: "It's out of the way, okay." β
Seeing that his face was red, Huai Zhen couldn't help frowning and said, "I'm drinking again, what did I say to you?" Why do people who are injured always not care like this, and they don't feel enough pain?"
Xiao Tang hugged her with a smile and said, "I originally listened to you, I didn't drink it, and then I ......"
Xiao Tang wanted to speak and stopped, and later, he had the heart to get Guo Jianyi drunk, so he couldn't help but persuade him to drink a few times, and he also drank two cups, but it was not easy to say this to Huaizhen.
Huai Zhen glanced at him and asked, "Later, when people persuaded you, you couldn't help it again, didn't you?"
Xiao Tang had no choice but to respond with a smile, Huaizhen saw his casual appearance, but he was annoyed and uneasy in his heart, so he said: "If I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have called you there today." β
Xiao Tang hugged her and said with a smile: "If you don't ask me to go, I won't follow, or you will go together, or you will accompany me at home." β
Huaizhen also laughed at what he said, so he said helplessly: "That's it, don't make trouble again, I still have to go to my wife's side." β
Huai Zhen was worried that Xiao Tang's injuries were in the way, so he asked again: "You always don't show me your injuries, now that Zizi has gone to gauze, should I see it?"
Xiao Tang said: "There's nothing to see, it's getting more and more ugly, not to mention that I haven't bathed recently because I'm afraid of getting wet, so it's dirty." β
Huaizhen frowned and said: "You have so many excuses, pushing back and obstructing, will you never show me in the future?"
Xiao Tang just laughed, Huaizhen looked at him smiling, and couldn't be annoyed when he thought about it, not to mention that he didn't agree, could it be like that night when he gave him clothes?
Therefore, Huai Zhen had no choice but to sigh: "That's it, I can't grind you...... Don't go out, rest in the house for a while, I'll go see my wife first." β
Xiao Tang agreed, and when he saw that Huaizhen was gone, he returned to the back room, untied his clothes, looked down at the wound on his chest, and saw that the wound was healing, but because he had sewn it, it was like a thick/long centipede, leaning from his shoulders to his chest, probably because of the wine, and faintly red, which seemed to be a little more hideous and fearful.
Xiao Tang couldn't help frowning when he saw it, where did he dare to show Huai Zhen?
Xiao Tang gritted his teeth, took the wound medicine, applied it to himself, and was a little sad, thinking: "I don't know how sooner or later this scar will fade, it's always like this...... What about the future?"
Xiao Tang applied the medicine, and when the medicine condensed, he covered his clothes again, and then rested on the couch for a while.
Before I knew it, half an hour had passed, and it was gradually getting dark outside, and Bingju came in and said, "Mrs. asked the third master to come over for dinner." β
Xiao Tang sat up, went out, and went to Mrs. Tang's room, and sure enough, he ate with him.
Mrs. Tang knew that the two of them had a day's entertainment, so she said, "Ming'er, your second uncle's banquet still has to be busy, so let's rest early today." β
Both of them agreed, and after eating, they said a few words, and Xiao Tang accompanied Huaizhen back to the room.
Huaizhen went to bathe first, and Xiao Tang took advantage of her absence in the room, so he asked the maid to fetch water, took a handkerchief by himself, and wiped his body slightly.
Because I have to take care of the injury, my movements are not effective, but I am unwilling to call the girls to help, which is inevitably a little sloppy and very inconvenient.
was in a hurry for a while, and suddenly heard a laugh, and someone said, "Why didn't the third master call us?"
Xiao Tang turned around, but saw that it was a congratulatory girl, Ben smiled, and when he saw the wound on Xiao Tang's chest, he immediately smiled in fright, and stood in place in a daze, unable to move.
Xiao Tang hurriedly covered his clothes and said, "No need, I made it myself, you can retreat." But the voice was faint.
Congratulations was flustered, and after listening to this, he didn't have time to think about it, so he lowered his head and answered "yes", and sure enough, he retreated in a hurry, and after walking out of the door, his heart was still beating wildly.
Xiao Tang drove the girl out, only to remember-forgot to tell her not to talk nonsense, but it was okay, because he was afraid that Huaizhen would come back, so he had to wipe it hastily for a while, then changed his clothes, and went to the couch to lie down and rest.
After another quarter of an hour, Huai Zhen returned to the house, and the two Jixiang Bingju took a handkerchief to wipe her hair, and Bingju saw that there were water stains on the ground, so he asked, "Did you ask someone to fetch water?"
Xiao Tang raised his eyes and looked at it, and answered.
Hearing this, Huai Zhen turned around, glanced at the ground, and then looked at Xiao Tang, and said, "What are you doing with water?"
Xiao Tang coughed and said, "Just wash your face." β
Huaizhen stared at him for a while, not quite convinced, so he said: "You said that you haven't taken a bath for a long time during the day, are you unbearable and wash yourself?"
Xiao Tang sat up early and said busily: "No, where is it." β
Huaizhen snorted, and Xiao Tang laughed and said, "I really haven't." Don't believe it. β
Huaizhen didn't make a sound, but he didn't want to laugh.
Unexpectedly, Ji Xiang was waiting on the side, and when she saw Xiao Tang being asked by Huai Zhen one by one, and laughing like this, she was secretly proud...... When Xiao Tang saw it, he knew what it meant, he seemed to be smiling instead of smiling, but it was inconvenient to speak, but he thought of one thing in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Huaizhen saw Jixiang laughing, so he asked her, "What are you laughing at?"
Ji Xiang said: "I was happy in my heart, so I smiled." β
Huaizhen said with a cold face: "I'm not happy in my heart, don't laugh." Jixiang stuck out his tongue and hurriedly shut down.
Seeing this, Xiao Tang laughed again.
Huaizhen looked back at him again, and he didn't reason, he was only patient, and when the maids wiped their hair half-dry, congratulations and brought goat milk up, Huaizhen ate it, and after rinsing his mouth hurriedly, he asked the maids to retreat.
After a while, the room was quiet again, so Huaizhen went to the couch, sat down slowly, and said, "Show me." β
Xiao Tang only pretended not to understand and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Huaizhen looked back at him, staring at him silently, Xiao Tang covered his chest and clothes, and his throat moved. At this moment, the situation of the two people seemed to have changed, one stared fiercely, eager to take off his middle clothes, and the other was tightly hidden, and he was bound to refuse to let her get close.
