66. Where is the neon
Wanwan was stunned, looked at the two children, and knew that it was Lan Zhou and Lan Ting, but she didn't expect them to grow so big.
For nearly three years, the memory is still stuck at the time when she first left Nanyuan, Lan Zhou cried, tugged at her sleeve and said, "Don't go." But in a blink of an eye, they have become adults, their bodies have changed, and even their eyebrows and eyes are not the same as before, and they feel strange at first sight.
She hesitated and called Lan Zhou: "Big brother? ”
Lan Zhou looks very similar to his father, with a slender body and a handsome and elegant face. Qi Ren is different from Xianbei people, in fact, he is only twelve years old, and the princes in the Forbidden City are still ignorant half-grown children, but he has long been able to take charge on his own.
She touched his cheeks, and he blushed suddenly, smiled shyly, and answered, "E, my son is here." ”
She looked at Lan Ting again and called the second elder brother. This brother is a dirty cat, he is very tall, and his mind is probably the same as before. Recklessly, he belched: "Enie, our buddies think about you every day." ”
She laughed, and scolded him at the right time: "When you see anyone, these two sentences, you don't have any fresh words?" ”
Lan Ting stammered and defended, and the concubine walked out of the Yin'an Hall and was standing at the bottom of the steps looking here.
Lan Zhou hurriedly led them into the door, and said with a smile: "Mrs. has been looking forward to it for so long, and she is finally looking forward to the return of Enie." Last time, she received the letter, saying that the court had put grace in the court, and her old man seemed to be happy. Early this morning, Brother Ting and I were urging us to wait outside, and even going in to drink saliva made the boss unhappy. ”
The concubine couldn't wait, and when she saw them coming, she stepped forward first, stretched out her hand from afar, and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Highness has been wronged, this time it's good, I'm finally back." ”
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law hugged each other and cried bitterly, Wanwan and the concubine have always been very close, even closer than the queen mother. A large part of the reason is that they love each other, because they are both single-minded and in the same direction, so there is no difference.
The concubine carefully examined her and said with tears in her eyes: "The news of you in the capital has also reached Nanyuan, and I am like him when you boil oil." Pity us under the low eaves, I want to pick you up a few times, but I am afraid that the emperor will be jealous and will not be able to make the trip. Don't hold a grudge against us, we really can't think about it, or we won't let you stay in Beijing for so long. ”
Wan Wan said mournfully: "Don't say that, I can't live with the prince and you." It's my incompetence that can't keep the child......"
The concubine said no, "This is a slap in our face, you are for Nanyuan." Our surname Yuwen knows how to do it, thank you too late, but come and take care of this? While hurriedly comforting her, "Good boy, you have suffered a lot in this matter, and I only hate that I don't have the appearance of a mother-in-law, and I can't take care of you by your side." Tadu and I have talked about it several times, I am afraid that the girls around you are young and will not take care of them well, and I am worried that I will not be able to sleep well all night. Now that you have returned, you will be with you from now on, and you will come to support you. ”
Thousands of intimate words have been said, and every sentence is full of deep friendship. Liangshi stepped forward and hugged Wanwan and her mother, "Don't stand in the wind, if you have something to say." He turned around and instructed Lan Zhou in a low voice, "There is a brocade guard sent by the imperial court outside, you go and arrange it." There are enough people in the house, and they are not needed, or they can be sent to Dasha Hat Lane. ”
Lan Zhou was personally conditioned by his father, and he only needed to mention it a little bit about this kind of thing, and he would understand it immediately. He bowed his hand upward, turned his gaze and glanced at Wanwan deeply, and said respectfully: "Sit down, my son will go back when he goes." ”
He Ama was impatient, waved his hand away, and led Wanwan to the warm pavilion on the east side.
The concubine asked her about her in Beijing, expressed pity for her stay in Beijing, and her dissatisfaction with the emperor was also about to come out, "Your Royal Highness is good-natured, your own brother, naturally there is nothing to say, but my wife is not happy." When the girl leaves the cabinet, she is someone else's person, no matter how reluctant she is, there is no reason to keep someone. You see, what's the fun of separating husband and wife? It's only been half a year since I got married, and I have to go back, and if I stay for so long, the good three years have been wasted like this, what a pity! ”
Liang Shi didn't want his mother to say this, "Don't mention the past." Now that the people are back, we have to look at the long term. It's just a big wedding at this time, and we just welcome the eldest princess today, isn't it the same? ”
The concubine sighed: "It's nothing, I just think it's strange for you." ”
The emperor imposed it, who dares to say half a word! The unpleasant thing has passed, I hope it will not be mentioned again, Wanwan came to comfort her, "The prince has contributed to his calmness, and the emperor has a good eye for him." In the past, I didn't worry about me coming to Nanyuan alone, but now it's okay, I think I must be very trustworthy to the prince, and I will never make trouble to let me go back to Beijing again. ”
The concubine nodded, "I hope so, next time, I will go to Beijing to theorize." If I can't talk to the emperor, I will find the queen mother and ask her to comment on our reasoning. ”
Speaking of the Queen Mother, Wanwan also felt very regretful. The emperor didn't have the slightest mother-son affection for her, but because his biological mother was long gone, she was able to pick up the leaks and get the title of the queen mother for nothing. He even ordered the cabinet to draw up a nickname and posthumously crown Xu Guifei as the Empress of Filial Piety, which was a rather embarrassing situation for the Queen Mother. The queen mother blocked the palace gate of Cining Palace in a fit of rage, and since then she has eaten fasting and recited Buddha, and no longer asks about secular affairs.
The concubine dragged her for a while, and was afraid that she would be tired, so she asked her to go back to the Longen Building to rest. Wanwan thanked him, got up and wanted to go out, walked two steps and turned around, and called Erni, "I remember that time the prince Qianqiu, Erni said that he wanted Lanzhou to be recorded in my name." ”
Everyone was stunned, and Liangshi frowned and said: "This is a joke from the past, why are you still taking it seriously!" ”
Wanwan tilted her neck, with a solemn expression on her face: "Whether it's a joke or not, there's always no harm." It's a pity that my son didn't live there. Lan Zhou is a good boy, and now he is getting more and more profitable, if Ene and the prince don't object, just do it, I think it's very good. ”
Her decision, no matter what the reason, gave people a sense of self-defeat. Liangshi was very worried in his heart, afraid that she would be cranky, so he only asked her to think about it again. The concubine also means the same, "You are young, and it will not be long before you will have it again." Why rush to recognize your son, wait for next year, it's not too late to talk about next year. ”
Wanwan can't tell clearly, she is always unsteady in her heart. Her child was only lost at five months, and I heard that when she landed, she had both hands and feet, and her eyebrows and eyes could be distinguished. That miscarriage consciously hurt the foundation, and then no matter how she took care of it, her body was empty, and she didn't know if she could have another son and a half daughter. But she always has hope, hoping to recognize Lan Zhou, even if it is a tire, I hope there is still the possibility of getting pregnant again.
She didn't talk about those thoughts with anyone, but said, "I've already thought about it, so let's do it." Whether there is this layer or not, he calls me Enie...... In fact, it's just a name, and it doesn't matter. ”
Liang Shi understood her, and as soon as she mentioned it, he knew that she had something hidden in her heart. She is too delicate, and no one can enter deep in her heart, even in front of him, she is not completely reserved.
He took her hand, took a breath and said, "If this can make you like it, then it depends on you." Don't worry if you have more sons, the children in this house are all yours, and it doesn't matter if you are named or not. ”
Only then did she smile slightly, and she was carried back to Longen Building by the copper ring.
The place where I used to live, after two or three years of absence, came back and was still spotless. She stroked the red sandalwood bookcase, and stroked the jade paperweight, and then pushed the window to look at the outside scene, autumn came, the leaves were scorched yellow, withered hanging on the branches, blown by the wind, precarious.
Tonghuan will no longer persuade her to consolidate her position as a concubine, because they have all looked at the past. What she wants to do now, everyone depends on her temperament. She has long been cleansed of the childishness when she first came out, she knows how to arrange her life, and the decisions she makes have her own reasons.
The news quickly reached Lan Zhou's ears, and he came to her after he was busy with other things. Wanwan was taking a nap when she came, and he waited for a long time in the hug building, and when she got up, he came in to greet her.
"What did Enne do with this decision? Is it because of the little brother? ”
Wanwan didn't respond to his words, but said: "Don't you call me Eni, and now you really do your Eni, are you reluctant?" We are destined, and I like you very much. I'm nineteen years old, and I'm still ...... on my knees," he said, amused by himself, and said with a whole face, "Look at what you mean, and if you don't like it, I won't force you." ”
Lan Zhou was silent, and his eyes became warmer. Banyu took out a paper bag from his arms, opened it carefully, and presented it with both hands, "This is a conjudice cake, which is said to be a craft handed down from the Tang Dynasty court, and his son Teter'er brought it back to Ernie." ”
The small cake was originally worthless, but the child was tucked in his arms, which was a piece of his heart. The name of the loaf was also appropriate, and although he did not say anything, he saw that he was willing. Wanwan pinched a piece and took a bite, very appreciative, Lan Zhou, this child, will definitely be very filial in the future......
