3. What should be said goodbye must be left behind
It was still dark, the sky was still gray, and a rudimentary ox cart came to a halt in the alley next to the county mansion. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Huo Xingjun moved his body uncomfortably, raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat from his sideburns, and then quietly looked at the woman in front of him.
After resting for two hours, although she was still wearing dirty makeup, the woman's eyes were no longer just two pools of stagnant water, but a kind of unstoppable look flashed in them.
Seeing Huo Xingjun staring at her, the woman bowed her head slightly, and the meek temperament unique to the palace people was fully revealed.
From last night to now, Huo Xingjun has not touched the infancy emperor's great-grandson, so although her attitude is very clear, the eldest emperor who was entrusted by Shi Liangdi and the emperor's grandson to come is still a little uneasy, especially at this time there are only the two of them and a baby who only knows how to eat and sleep in the car.
Huo Xingjun looked at the woman for a moment, straightened up, and solemnly bowed, which made the woman shocked.
"Shaojun ......"
Huo Xingjun saluted, and said with a straight face: "I am only familiar with you, so it can be seen that you must have followed the queen for a short time...... I didn't benefit a little, but I did it for my great-grandson, and I deserved the gift of a concubine! ”
The woman was speechless, and could only hug the emperor's great-grandson.
"Please ask for the name of the Chief." Huo Xingjun was also silent for a while before speaking again.
The woman was puzzled, but she still replied: "The servant is lowly and has no surname, and the queen gives the name Yihua." ”
Huo Xingjun nodded, raised his eyes after a while, and said softly: "You are a palace maid, you must enter the Imperial Prison, the Inner Official Prison......"
"The servant understands!" Yihua smiled and nodded, his tone was calm, so that Huo Xingjun couldn't say any more.
-- In the forbidden inner official prison, even Wei Qing and Huo Qubing can't interfere, and naturally they can't take care of it.
Gently holding the baby closer to him, Yihua looked at the young woman in front of him, and said in a low voice: "Life and death are determined by heaven, but the maid will try to live!" Her eyes were staring at Huo Xingjun's eyes: "The maid will always remember the words of the young monarch's father and daughter last night, so she will definitely try to live and watch the queen, the prince, Liangdi and the emperor and grandson on behalf of ......"
-- Let's see if you can realize the future you want!
Huo Xingjun nodded, his white and slender fingers moved lightly, and he brought up the light green sleeves, like water and smoke, but he didn't hesitate at all, and asked Yihua to get out of the car with a smile.
Yihua changed the position of the baby in her arms and put the baby's head on her shoulder, so she didn't see it, and the sleeping baby opened its eyes in a daze, as if it was awakened by her movements.
The black eyes that were still sleepy were half-squinted, and he looked at the woman who suddenly appeared in front of him a little blankly, and then, the baby blinked and smiled at Huo Xingjun, as if to say-I still remember you!
Huo Xingjun didn't make a sound, his pursed lips barely raised the arc of a smile, responding to the baby's smile. When the felt curtain fell, cutting off the sight of the two, Huo Xingjun lay down in the car, covering his mouth tightly with his left hand, preventing himself from making any sound, but he couldn't stop the tears from soaking the sleeve of his right hand.
The royal who had been instructed did not ask the hostess in the car, and after watching Yihua being taken into the county mansion by two prison officials, he returned to the car, pulled the rope of the morning glory, let the old cow move slowly, and dragged the car away.
The ox cart entered through the back door of the Huo family, as if it was just a slave returning from shopping for goods early in the morning.
The Donglu clan had been waiting in the backyard for a long time, and when they saw the ox cart coming back, they hurriedly greeted it. Two maidservants stepped forward to help Huo Xingjun get out of the car.
Seeing the red and swollen eyes of his daughter, Dong Lu sighed, but didn't say anything, motioned to the maid to step back, stepped forward to support her daughter personally, walked slowly, and gently stroked her back with one hand.
"Are you feeling unwell?" After walking along the corridor for a while, seeing that her daughter's face was still pale, Donglu couldn't help but be a little worried.
Huo Xingjun leaned on his mother's arm and shook his head silently.
Dong Lu didn't know how to comfort her daughter, so she could only be secretly anxious in her heart, so when she saw her husband's wife standing by the roadside, looking at their mother and daughter with confused eyes, she immediately became angry: "What are you doing here?" ”
The woman shrank for a moment, and subconsciously hugged her already large abdomen with both hands, that posture made the Donglu clan even more angry, and Huo Xingjun couldn't help frowning: "Mother, why are you here?" ”
- There is a triple courtyard from her residence.
"Shangguan, everyone is here...... There is no ...... in Daihime's bedroom," the woman shuddered, but still said her intentions completely.
"Thank you, mother-in-law!" Huo Xingjun nodded to her, but his expression was still cold, and the Donglu clan didn't want to say a word to her at all, so he helped his daughter and left.
Looking at the background of the mother and daughter leaving, the woman pursed her lips and pressed her hands around her abdomen harder.
Regarding Shangguan Ji's wife's question, Huo Xingjun lowered his gaze and said nothing, Donglu helped his daughter to lie back on the bed, and then turned around and explained to his in-laws: "The child was caught in a nightmare in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep anymore, so I accompanied her to walk around the house." Didn't tell the slave. It's been a long time! ”
Although Shangguan Ji's wife was still dissatisfied, she could only accept this explanation.
She is not good at dealing with the Donglu family, and her own son-in-law is making up for sleep, so she can only go home and tell her husband and son who rarely rest together. Who knows, after listening to her words, Shangguan An was just worried about his wife, and immediately went to Huo's house, although Shangguan Jian frowned, it was obviously not for her to avenge her grievances, she was immediately angry, and slammed the wooden chopstick: "The bride enters the door, and there is no son, so it's just that!" You are a dignified servant, one of the Nine Qings, you have to look at Huo Guang's face, and I can't raise my head in the Huo family! ”
Shangguan An just walked to the door, at this time, where was he still moving, he could only turn around in embarrassment, but he heard Shangguan Ji snort coldly, slapped the wooden chopstick on the case, and taught his wife mercilessly: "What is a servant?" What is Jiuqing? The prime minister, the imperial doctor, and the county official are just a word, and the family is immediately ruined, and the whole family sits together! Who is Huo Guang? What is the Huo family? Do you think it's not a marriage with the Huo family, after Gongsun Jingsheng, the position of the servant will be my turn? Women's families, less knowledge, less talk! Learning from the bride and the Huo family, it won't hurt you! ”
Her husband's lesson immediately made her stunned, and before she came back to her senses, she heard her husband say to her son: "I'm not going to Huo's house, let's go!" By the way, ask the Huo family Xiaojun, if the bride is a little safe, she should go home to recuperate! There is no reason for a wife to live in her own house! ”
"No!" Although Shangguan An was puzzled, he still respectfully agreed.
The next day, the father and son entered the palace together and returned to the office, and Shangguan An asked his father what he meant.
"The prince's family is dead, and there is only one great-grandson of the emperor who has just turned 100 days old, but the lord has received retribution but has not expressed anything......" Shangguan Ji sighed softly, "It's over...... No more remembrance! ”
"Ah Weng means ......," Shangguan An blinked.
“…… It's almost starting again! Shangguan Ji said with certainty, "So, what should be said goodbye must be left behind!" ”
Shangguan An didn't quite understand what this had to do with him taking his wife back, but Shangguan Jian didn't want to explain anything more to his son.
Compared with Huo Xingjun, his son is still a little immature.
"An'er ......" patted his son's shoulder, and Shangguan Ji chuckled, "Hurry up and have a child with Xingjun!" ”
-- The marriage alliance is still a little fragile......
In August, Guihai, Taichang Jiangdu Hou Leshi to the lake, the crown prince was mourned, and the earthquake occurred. (Note 1)
In September, Da Honglu Shangqiu became the imperial historian.
In October, the Qian official of the Northern Army wrote a letter to the envoy of the army, Ren Anwen, the prince of the army: "I hope you can hand over the elite division to me."

Note 1: "Hanshu Wudi Ji" records: "In August Xinhai, the prince committed suicide in the lake. Earthquake. "Too often that paragraph is made up by the author.
Note 2: Ren An's matter is supplemented by Chu Shaosun in the "Historical Records: The Biography of Tian Shulie" - it was Ren An who was the envoy of the Northern Army at that time, and the prince set up a car outside the south gate of the Northern Army, summoned Ren An, and sent troops with the festival order. Bow to the feast, enter, and shut the door and do not go out. When Emperor Wu heard this, he thought that Ren An was evil, and he didn't do anything, so why not? Ren An insulted the money officials of the Northern Army, and the officials wrote a book, thinking that they were receiving the Prince's Day, saying "I am fortunate to be a good one". Hearing in the book, Emperor Wu said: "It's an old official, seeing the start of the war, wanting to sit and watch the success or failure, and seeing the winner wants to follow him, he has two hearts." There are many sins that deserve to die, and I have always lived, but now I am deceitful and disloyal. "Go down and die. - By the way, I read it several times, but I didn't see why the matter reported by that little official made Emperor Wu of Han come to such a conclusion!
