Chapter 169: Cousin Liu's Struggle

The front yard was chaotic for most of the night, and the spirit flag was hung high at the gate early the next morning, and the palace was snow-white inside and outside. The relatives or families began to come to the door one after another to mourn, and soon, the emperor's holy decree also arrived.

I don't know if it's to show the people of the world, or to the only brother really has a little sincerity, the emperor's holy decree was written with sorrow and sadness, and directly gave the king of Zhongshan a "loyalty" word as a nickname, not to say, but also ordered the civil and military officials to kneel in front of the spirit, and finally even stopped for three days, in order to quietly remember the brother.

Up and down the palace, together with Dong Rong, who had a big belly, knelt down and kowtowed to thank him. Dong Rong looked at her husband who was slightly haggard from afar, and was about to step forward to say a few words, but Princess Liu, who didn't want to be sick, insisted on letting her go back to the backyard to "recuperate" under the pretext that she was pregnant with a child in her belly.

Dong Rong had no idea of fighting with her for power, but now in front of a full house of guests, she didn't refute at all, and returned to Xuemeixuan after bowing respectfully.

Zizhu and Yiba were afraid that their master would be angry, and when they were thinking about how to persuade them, they didn't want Dong Rong to eat two pieces of dim sum and drink a bowl of porridge, and then picked up the needle and thread and slowly started to make small clothes.

The two girls looked at each other and slowly exited the room, and ran to ask Wen Niang instead. Wen Niang because she had done something wrong before, she rarely walked to her master these days, and now she heard the two girls persuade after speaking, "Madame's doing this is reasonable, and now the old prince has not been at the funeral, if it makes trouble, won't it be to provoke the whole Kyoto Laughing Palace." Besides, no matter how bad the old princess is, she is also the master's mother, and the lady seems to have been wronged today, and the lord is afraid that he will love her even more. ”

The two girls thought about it and felt that this was the case, so they echoed, "It's better for Madame not to go to the front, you always have to kneel and kowtow, and you have to entertain so many guests." ”

"No, I don't think Miss Liu is good at stubble, in case she picks up the old princess and makes it bad, it will be troublesome. Let's wait for Mrs. to recuperate in the courtyard, and when the left and right sides are done, the master will come back. ”

The three of them made up their minds and began to settle down and live as usual, Jia Yi took the group of A characters who turned from dark to light to go out of the house in rotation to buy ingredients and other things, Yun Rui and Fuzi and a few boys followed Steward Zhang to listen to the instructions, and sometimes they were scattered all over the palace, if there was a disturbance, they would trot back to the courtyard to report, for fear that the master would suffer a loss.

In this way, the palace was noisy for three days and three nights, and early on the morning of the fourth day, the old prince finally came out of the funeral and was buried. Dong Rong knelt behind Princess Liu with her stomach in her arms, seeing her crying fainting to death, she felt a little pitiful in her heart. But the poor man must have something to hate, and she does not dare to despise this mother-in-law at all, knowing that this empty palace is now built by her old man.

The ceremonial officer held the eulogy written by the emperor himself and read it for half an hour, and everyone knelt so hard that their legs were numb. Dong Rong relied on her fat clothes and two maids to cover her, so she sat directly on the ground. Occasionally, I secretly looked up and saw my child's father looking at me with a worried face, so I chuckled and nodded. The young couple, who have been separated for more than two days, immediately felt warm in their hearts because of this glance...

Finally, the old prince who had been tossed for several days slept in a coffin made of golden silk nanmu and was buried. Since then, there has been another underground palace made of white marble in the garden of the Murong family, and the title of King Zhongshan has also been changed to the head of the suave prince.

As the saying goes, if you want to be pretty, you must be filial. Dressed in a white plain satin robe, the young Zhongshan King who also changed his hair bun with mutton fat hosta, on the way back from the funeral, he fascinated countless ladies, small family jasper, and it is said that there is a weak woman who "sold herself to bury her father" and bravely rushed to the horse and cried for the prince to be fulfilled.

But the new King of Zhongshan was obviously still immersed in the grief of losing his father and couldn't extricate himself, and he didn't even reward the woman with a straight eye, so he gave up this opportunity to save the beauty to the guards he carried. As soon as the woman saw the middle-aged guard with a fleshy face and a scar on her neck, she decisively picked up her father who had "come back from the dead" and ran away...

Dong Rong sat on the soft couch in front of the window, drinking the peach juice that had been chilled in the well water while listening to Fuzi standing outside the window, and laughed so hard that she couldn't stop coughing. Zizhu and Yiba hurriedly helped their master pat his back, but in the end, he couldn't get up directly on the soft couch.

Dong Rong finally breathed her breath, and before she could ask anything, the whole person fell into a familiar embrace. She was stunned, then directly found a comfortable place to laze and asked, "Are you all done?" ”

"Hmm," Murong Huaide sniffed the familiar fruity fragrance in his arms, and the impetuousness in his heart seemed to dissipate in an instant. He tightened his arms and asked softly, "Is our son well-behaved, are you eating well?" ”

"Don't worry, my son and I are fine, but you... How many 'delicate flowers' were picked on the way? Dong Rong couldn't help but giggle again as she spoke.

Murong Huaide smiled helplessly, lowered his head and kissed her twice on the lips as punishment, and finally sighed, "I just hope that the days will pass sooner, where can I still see the "flowers and plants" on the side of the road?" After burning for my father for 100 days, we will take our mother back to Qingxian. ”

Dong Rong frowned slightly when she heard this, she didn't think that Princess Liu, who had been obsessed with power and wealth all her life, was willing to condescend to live in a farmhouse compound. But when he said this, he inevitably had the intention of provoking, so he swallowed it and said, "Okay, there is still a vacant space behind our yard, and then we will add a yard for the mother to live in." ”

Murong Huaide thought that his beloved wife would object, but when he heard this, he immediately became happy, and responded, "Why don't I send a letter to publicize it, then I will start looking for craftsmen to do it, so that I don't have to go back and make trouble with you." ”

"Okay, it's too late today, let's write it tomorrow morning."

The little couple took turns taking a bath while talking, and finally changed into a clean and loose middle coat, hugged each other and fell asleep.

Dong Rong didn't know how long she had been asleep, and in a hazy way, she seemed to hear someone whispering beside her, so she slowly opened her eyes.

The moonlight shone in through the crack in the window, shining on the sad man, who slowly stroked his wife's bulging belly and said softly, "Son, when you are born, Daddy will teach you to write big characters with his own hands, let you sit on your shoulders and go shopping, and take you to see the most beautiful rivers." If someone bullies you, Daddy will break their legs. If you are naughty and make your mother angry, your father will intercede for you. Daddy wouldn't be like... Like your grandfather, Daddy will watch you grow up every day..."

Dong Rong slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep with peace of mind, in her dream she leaned on her husband's arms, smiling and watching her children play, the days were peaceful and beautiful...

As soon as the weather in Kyoto enters August, there is less rain, and the sun wakes up early and returns late every day, and the work is very conscientious. The bud cobs in the field grew as fast as if they were crazy, as if they were going to gain weight every night.

Seeing this, not only the common people who relied on the sky to eat smiled, but also the civil and military officials in the court all smiled. Agriculture has always been the foundation of the country. When the fields are harvested, the people will not rebel when they are full, and the country will be stable. Civil officials can sing the praises of peace in the world, and military attaches do not have to lead troops to fight, so naturally everyone is happy.

But there is no absolute perfection in the world, and the whole of Kyoto is in the midst of singing and dancing, but the idlers in the teahouses and restaurants are annoyed that there is nothing new for them to pass the free time.

The Zhongshan Palace, which used to cause some gossip from time to time, seems to have been completely quiet because of the death of the old prince. Not to mention noisy, even a car and horse rarely enter and exit in front of the door. Everyone can't help but feel a little regretful, but they can't hope that people's homes are restless, that's not kind. Fortunately, Kyoto is prosperous, and you can always find some interesting things to entertain, so as not to make a group of idlers of all ages boring to death.

Located in the northernmost part of the Zhongshan Palace, Xuemei Xuan is not as clean as many idlers imagined. Yiba and Yunrui Fuzi and a few other little guys were lying on the courtyard gate, looking at Miss Liu, who was pulling her male master from a distance, with a crying face, and couldn't wait to go up and chop her hand.

Yiba lowered his voice and said hatefully, "This vixen is so shameless, our master clearly doesn't want to pay attention to her, and she always sticks to her, it's really infuriating." ”

Fuzi rolled her eyes and laughed quietly, "We just learned a few small tricks from the masters in the past few days, do you want to find a chance to scare her?" ”

Yiba blurted out that he was about to agree, but after thinking about it, he was deflated again, and said angrily, "Forget it, Madame told us not to cause trouble, otherwise the old princess will blame and upset the prince." ”

Fuzi shrugged his shoulders and sighed, "It's really boring to live in this palace, and I don't know when I will be able to go back to my hometown." We're about to harvest fruit in our orchard, right? ”

Yiba had never been to the Four Seasons Garden, so when he heard this, he asked curiously, "How is our orchard, what fruits have been planted..."

"That's a lot, apples, pears, peaches, pomegranates, you name it..."

A few of them were talking lively, but the door was pulled open from the outside.

Murong Huaide couldn't help frowning when he saw the maid who had fallen into a ball, and asked in a cold voice, "Aren't you busy with anything, what are you doing in front of the door?" ”

Yiba was the first to jump up and responded with a dry smile, "Childe, I was about to serve dinner to my wife, so I'm leaving." ”

"I'm going to sweep the yard too!"

"I'm going to fetch water!" Fuzi and Yun Rui did the same, and they all ran away with Yi Bayi.

Murong Huaide shook his head helplessly, and slowly walked into the house along the road. Dong Rong was walking around with a frighteningly big belly, and when she heard the sound, she turned her head and saw her husband's face gloomy, so she couldn't help but smile and asked, "What, you are entangled by Cousin Liu again?" ”

Murong Huaide stepped forward to help her sit down, and said angrily, "There are still such annoying women in the world, every time she can't say two words, she has to wipe her tears, and when people see her, they think I have deceived her!" ”

Dong Rong remembered that the last time she sat in the gazebo, she happened to see Cousin Liu "accidentally" falling into the water, just waiting for her cousin to save the beauty from the passing cousin. As a result, his husband just pretended not to see it and ran directly to the mountain. Angry, the cousin Liu stood up from the mud pond with a few dead lotus leaves, and the water was about to reach her waist, not to mention how funny it was.

(Finally got out of a chapter, and my shoulder hurts and I want to get angry.) I went to bed early today, and everyone went to bed early, good night. )R638
