Chapter 8
After Pan Tan came back from the court, he heard from the grandmother of the main courtyard that Sun's appetite was not good today, so he went back to the room early to rest. After tidying up, I went to the room to see Sun, and saw Sun lying on the soft couch, supporting his forehead with one hand, frowning slightly, hearing the sound and opening his eyes slightly, seeing that it was Pan Tan, Sun was supported by the maid to sit up, Pan Tan waved his hand, let the maid retreat, personally approved the coat for Sun, and asked:
"Madame, is there something wrong with you?"
It's okay not to ask, I can't stand it when I ask Sun, my nose is sore, and I cried when I leaned on Pan Tan, Pan Tan has never seen Sun so fragile, even when the Pan family was in the most difficult time, Sun didn't collapse, I don't know what happened this time.
Sun told Pan Tan about the worries in his heart:
"Our Sister Xiao has never suffered anything since she was a child, she is the proud daughter of the sky, but she is not worthy of those reckless and vulgar people of the Qi family, what is the Qi family, but it is just a reckless man who acts by force, why should I let my Sister Xiao be wronged in front of him? Sister Xiao has always loved cleanliness and is weak, so Qi Mozhou is a reckless person, where does she know how to cherish her? My sister Xiao doesn't know how much she has to suffer in that house. ”
Regarding Sun's accusation and venting, Pan Tan sighed: "This, we don't want to interfere with this, I know that Sister Xiao has always been above the top, and she doesn't look down on ordinary people, the prince really doesn't look like a gentle person, he was born in the army, and he is rough, but since Sister Xiao is already married, this matter must be adapted, besides, our Sister Xiao is the proud daughter of the sky, why not the princess of the moon?" That's a serious lady who has grown up with golden branches and jade leaves, and the young lady of the Shen family, all of whom were spoiled by their parents, why do we Xiao sisters feel that they have been greatly wronged? ”
Listening to Pan Tan's tone, Sun didn't seem to be partial to his daughter, so he didn't fight for a while, broke free from Pan Tan's arms, and smashed his fist on Pan Tan's shoulder:
"What did the master say? My own daughter hurts at home, and my sister Xiao just can't suffer any grievances. She has always admired elegance, loves the noble gentleman, the bachelor with outstanding literary talents, the Qi family is so vulgar, she is not worthy of my sister Xiao. ”
Seeing that Sun mentioned his daughter, he was out of proportion when he spoke, and Pan Tan couldn't help but remind and warn:
"Hugh should talk nonsense, and beware of the ears of the wall."
Sun also understood that what she said was excessive, if such words were heard by someone with a heart, it would indeed bring disaster to the Pan family, but she just couldn't accept that her daughter was wronged. Turning around and lying on the soft couch and crying, Pan Tan hurriedly comforted: "Madam, don't cry, what are you doing." ”
"I don't do anything, I just don't want to see Sister Xiao suffer." Sun's muffled voice only came from under the pillow. Sun turned around: "Master, I have been married to you for 20 years, and I have never begged you for anything, but Sister Xiao'er's matter, it should be regarded as me begging you, I can live and die with the master to guard the Pan family, but Sister Xiao is my lifeline, as long as I think of her being wronged in the prince's mansion, I can't sleep at night, and my heart is like a knife." ”
Pan Tan really hadn't seen such a Sun, so he sat down beside her helplessly, and while wiping Sun's tears, he said:
"I know that Sister Xiao has been wronged, and I am also uncomfortable, but, but now that the wood is in the boat, where can we manage the affairs of the Prince's Mansion?"
Seeing Pan Tan's softened attitude, Sun immediately stopped his tears, approached Pan Tan and whispered: "We can't take care of the affairs of the prince's mansion, but we can take care of the affairs of the Pan family, the prince is young, isn't it just a fresh, a color, our sister Xiao is more guilty than the other two side concubines, it is estimated that it is also because of the appearance of the better, men are pretty, as long as we send a beautiful one to Sister Xiao'er's side, won't we be able to share it for Sister Xiao?" ”
She is looking for a scapegoat for Pan Xiao.
Pan Tan looked at Sun, and his mind couldn't turn for a while: "But at this time, where to find the right person?" Besides, it is impossible for ordinary people to accept it in the prince's mansion. ”
Sun stared at Pan Tan and was silent for a while, Pan Tan saw her like this, he knew that she had a candidate, his eyes moved, and he suddenly realized: "You mean, choose in the house?" ”
Pan Tan guessed Sun's thoughts, and Sun hurriedly nodded: "Yes, the master is wise." ”
"This ......" Pan Tan was a little uncertain: "Which one are you talking about?" ”
"It depends on which one the master wants to choose. Aren't there still three girls in the house who are not married......" Sun finally said what he really thought in his heart.
She is going to use other people's daughters to share her daughter's pain, Pan Tan really didn't expect Sun to make such a request, a little panicked: "This is not good, the three girls are not married yet, Sister Xiao was originally a side concubine, and if she arranged it in, it is estimated that she can't even be a side concubine." ”
Seeing that Pan Tan was a little reluctant, Sun's face changed again: "I knew that you were reluctant to them, so you were reluctant to let us Sister Xiao, right?" At the beginning of the war, you said that you would send your concubines and children to Xicheng, I didn't say a word, I didn't hesitate to stay in Jiankang with you, guarding the ancestral family business, regardless of life and death, after two years of coarse tea and light rice, I was frightened every day, and people were emaciated, but what about them? But they are enjoying happiness in Xicheng, and they are raising pearls and jade runs, have you thought about my feelings? But I'm your wife, husband and wife should have difficulties together, I never said anything, Sister Xiao is the daughter of the Pan family, knowledgeable, poetic and thorough, such an excellent daughter, in your eyes, is not as good as a concubine's child? You're so hard-hearted, do you have to force me to kneel for you? ”
After Sun finished speaking, he really slipped off the soft couch and knelt in front of Pan Tan on his knees, and Pan Tan hurriedly went to help: "Oh, what is Madam doing, hurry up." ”
"If the master doesn't agree, I won't get up, anyway, Sister Xiao'er suffers like I suffer, if Sister Xiao has three longs and two shorts, I won't be able to live."
Pan Tan was embarrassed, but he really couldn't stand the appearance of the Sun family, and spit out: "You get up first, I promise you to think about it, this matter is not so light as we said in the room, if it is an ordinary family, it is nothing to stuff a person in the room, but it is the prince, and the prince and the emperor have to agree, it can only be said that it is looking for an opportunity, and it will only be self-defeating to say it rashly." ”
Although Pan Tan did not impulsively agree to Sun's construction, he agreed to consider that it was already a victory for Sun, put away his tears, and asked Pan Tan to help her up, Sun pursed his lips and asked Pan Tan one last time:
"If it can be done, who does the master want to send?"
“……”
Here Sun and Pan Tan were talking, and in the Lixiang Courtyard over there, Pan Chen's sneezing kept stopping, which made the Liu family disgusted, and quickly moved her baby flower stem to the side, and said cool words:
"I've never seen an uncivilized girl like you, sneezing and shaking the mountains."
Pan Chen glanced at Liu: "Sneezing is a natural reaction, who can control zhì?" It's like my mother snores when she sleeps at night......"
Liu Shi uncovered the sore spot, stretched out his hand to hit Pan Chen, Pan Chen's eyes were quick, he grabbed a handful of dried flowers in front of Liu Shi and ran, waving to Liu Shi while running, a pair of eyes were black and bright, not to mention how funny the little appearance of Sahuan was proud, Liu Shi couldn't help but laugh.
Sun conspired in the palace every day to send people to the prince's mansion to share the pain for Pan Xiao, Pan Tan went in and out of the palace every day to find a suitable opportunity, the court was busy in and out, the establishment of the new dynasty was not easy, pushing through the old and bringing forth the new, all kinds of industries were waiting to be developed, all kinds of things were coming, everyone was busy, but in this most critical period, an earth-shattering upheaval came out without warning, the emperor, critically ill.
As soon as this news came out, it shocked the world. Pan Tan also just learned a few days ago that since this period of time, the emperor has only made heavy decisions, and the general government is in charge of the crown prince and King Shou, and the courtiers are busy every day, and they don't think much about it, after all, Qi Zhengyang has been in the north for many years, giving people an indestructible impression of steel, how can such an iron man who supports the Great Qi Dynasty say that he is sick.
At the same time, it also made the situation more tense in an instant.
How long has the Qi family been established, Qi Zhengyang has been on the throne for less than a year, the emperor's body collapsed, and he fell to the ground in a vertigo in the Taihe Palace, and never got up again.
Dingyuan is only one year, and the era name will be changed to Kaiyuan. The world has become faster than turning a book, changing rapidly.
The emperor died, and the crown prince ascended the throne.
Pan Chen is in the backyard, he can feel the turmoil of the situation, and he also knows that the Qi family has just entered the city, in addition to the military strength, the cultural background necessary to govern the country is not too high, although everyone submits to the Qi family's force value, but in the final analysis, it is not pleasing and sincere, Qi Zhengyang has high qualifications and can hold it, after he entered the city and ascended the throne, there was no chaos, but his prince Qi Mozhou was only twenty-four after all, although there was the support of the Qi family, but everyone in the city was ready to move after Qi Zhengyang's death, and the new emperor ascended the throne during this period of time in the city. Fortunately, Qi Mozhou is not a vegetarian, he has followed Qi Zhengyang to fight in the east and west since he was a child, and he has a good status in the army, and he is the crown prince canonized by Qi Zhengyang himself, so although there was a small episode when he ascended the throne, he also passed it safely.
When everyone was surprised, there was no shortage of people who were secretly happy, such as the Pan family. A few days ago, I was still complaining about marrying the side concubine made by the prince, but how long has it been, the new emperor has ascended the throne, and the side concubine has become the imperial concubine, and after a while, if the emperor is happy, it is not impossible to be a queen.
With the crown prince ascending the throne as the emperor, the prince's three side concubines also entered the palace, Pan Xiao was named the virtuous concubine, Ning Yueru was the concubine, and Shen Yun was the concubine.
Pan Xiao sealed the concubine, Sun's face was gloomy for a while and finally had a little smile, and he was more generous to the concubines, the day Pan Xiao entered the palace, Sun rewarded the Pan family at home, and even the Lixiangyuan, which had the most no sense of zài, was given a reward of fifty taels of silver, but the Liu family was very happy, and when he took Pan Chen to thank Sun's, it was rare to say a few words to listen to, Sun was happy, and felt that the good luck of the family was coming, and he rewarded Pan Chen with a pair of gold bead earrings and a pair of yellow gold bracelets.
Liu Shi smiled brightly, sat at the table in Lixiangyuan, took the gold bracelet and put it under his teeth like a wealth obsessed and bit it, while Pan Chen felt a little flustered. A person who has never been taken seriously suddenly receives the attention of the top leader in the backyard and receives a large bounty, which is like the rhythm of cannon fodder.
