Chapter 158: Killing Two Birds with One Stone
The Queen Mother was also so angry that her heart ached, but she couldn't let her family go, so she raised her head and glanced at the personal old lady beside her, and finally sighed, "This girl is afraid that she is also frightened by the sudden change, although she is naughty on weekdays, she has no bad intentions." Qiu'er, where is the Dong family now? But she had to send a doctor to treat her, after all, she was pregnant, and she couldn't be careless. As for Hongxia, you don't want to be like a little woman. The imperial grandmother is in charge, and when she recovers, she will go to make amends to the Dong family, okay? ”
While talking like this, the old lady had already helped Hongxia get up and walked towards the inner hall. Hongxia was finally fully awake at this time, and she wanted to rush over to sue and defend herself, but unfortunately the old lady had already covered her mouth.
Murong Huaide knelt down again and kowtowed in front of the Queen Mother, and said in a low voice, "Imperial grandmother, because my father is seriously ill on weekdays, my grandson rarely serves in front of the imperial grandmother. Now it is even more because of this incident that the imperial grandmother is upset, and the grandson is really unfilial. But the grandson owes the Dong family a lot, and now she is pregnant again, and the grandson is privately looking forward to letting him see the successor of the palace before his father returns to the west. However, if her grandson is still with her today, she will suffer this disaster, and if her nephew is not there one day..."
At this point, he didn't go any further, but everyone understood. He doesn't plan to lightly expose today's matter, at least he has to ask for a "talisman" for his wife and children.
The Queen Mother didn't expect her grandson to be so tough, and her face was a little bad. A smile flashed in the eyes of the emperor on the side, Daqi didn't need a prince with Wen Taowu, but he didn't mind having one more prince who had no intention of power but loved the wind and snow. Of course, if this prince is infatuated with a peasant girl, it would be better if he borrowed less than half of his in-laws.
"Okay, your kid's temperament is very similar to Brother Wang, and it's okay to do other things, why are you so infatuated with women? Speaking of which, the Dong family has royal blood, and married you as a wife when he was poor, it can be described as virtuous and loyal, which is really rare, so it is better to give her a proper name today. As he spoke, the emperor waved his hand and motioned to the eunuch to step forward, and ordered, "Spread my will, the Dong family will be crowned the princess of Zhongshan Wang, and reward 100 pieces of brocade, eight plates of jewelry, and a handle of jade Ruyi." ”
Murong Huaide immediately kowtowed and thanked him, and when he looked up again, there was still a look of sadness and indignation on his face, full of joy. Seeing this, the emperor couldn't help but quip, "You lai-skinned boy, are you just waiting for me to say this?" On weekdays, I look at it and I'm sensible, but I didn't expect that even I would be calculated for a woman. ”
Murong Huaide hurriedly flattered, "If Uncle Huang doesn't care for his nephew, it's useless for his nephew to be skinned." Uncle Huang can rest assured, his nephew will only marry the Dong family in this life, and he will not trouble Uncle Huang again. ”
"Marry only one?" At this time, not only the emperor, but even the concubines looked over in surprise and asked, "What does this mean?" ”
Murong Huaide smiled innocently, "Uncle Huang, in the eyes of my nephew, except for the Dong family, I can't tolerate any other woman." It is enough to marry her only one in this life, and there are no side concubines and concubines, and it is best for the family to eat, drink, and have fun. ”
"It's not promising, when you see a better woman in the future, Xu will change your mind again." The emperor opened his mouth to scold his nephew, but even the last bit of suspicion was removed in his heart.
Murong Huaide didn't defend either, just smiled and didn't speak. Many concubines are mixed in their hearts at this moment, they are all women, they are really jealous of this woman surnamed Dong, guessing what she looks like, why did she capture such a wonderful man, so that he treats each other so infatuated?
The Empress Dowager Xu also thought so, and was eager to remedy the impression of her stupid niece and granddaughter in the emperor's heart, so she opened her mouth and smiled, "Since the Dong family has become our royal family, let's take her into the palace in a few days to walk around." The mourning family also asked Hongxia to salute her to make amends. ”
"Grandmother's words are serious, and today the grandson is acting recklessly in a hurry, and I hope that grandmother will not blame her. Dong made a good handful of dim sum, and his grandson took her into the palace three days later to offer two boxes of fresh food to his grandmother. ”
When the Empress Dowager heard this, her heart finally felt a little more comfortable, and she asked about the condition of King Zhongshan again. Murong Huaide answered them one by one, and in the end, under the pretext that he still had to serve his father's medicine, he hurriedly quit the palace.
The emperor also got up and resigned from the queen mother and went to the front hall to approve the folds, and the concubines had no excitement to see, and no emperor to please, so they also resigned. As for how the queen mother taught her mother's stupid niece and nephew, no one cares...
Murong Huaide picked up the sparsely populated laneway, ran back all the way, and occasionally turned his head to look at the palace that was gradually being left behind, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled.
It is said that it is not easy to extract teeth from the tiger's mouth, but today he successfully won the name of his beloved wife and completely eliminated the emperor's suspicions, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, which is really worth celebrating. It's a pity that his wife is not a power-loving person, otherwise I don't know what she would be happy about. But that's one of the reasons why he loves her so much...
At noon in July, the sun burned the bluestone pavement as if it was about to melt. Princess Liu lifted the curtains while drinking tea and looked out, and her heart was so angry that she was about to explode. She has been waiting for most of the hour, but she still doesn't see her rebel come back, does she really want to spend a day here?
The maids and women outside the car were even more miserable at this time, and the master still had tea to drink in the car, but they were standing directly in the sun. It's a pity that there is not even a willow tree planted outside this courtyard, if you wait any longer, I'm afraid you'll be burned alive...
Murong Huaide turned into the alleyway and saw the slumped faces of everyone in the palace, so he immediately frowned. He flew off his horse and threw the reins to Boss A, who had heard the news, and asked in a low voice, "Is there someone from the house?" ”
A strange smile flashed in Boss A's eyes, and he responded, "The princess is here, but Madame said that she was not feeling well, so she didn't let anyone in." ”
Murong Huaide was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Has Qingfeng diagnosed the pulse?" ”
"After the diagnosis, the lady was slightly frightened, and then she drank the soothing soup and fell asleep."
"That's good." Murong Huaide turned to look at the carriage and instructed lightly, "In the future, you must also remember that this is the Dong Mansion." There was no other master but Madame and me. ”
"Don't worry, your subordinates can save it." Boss A smiled and led the horse into the door.
Everyone in the palace was awakened by the sound of horses' hooves, and everyone was in high spirits as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they all looked forward to the masters making noise quickly. No matter who wins or loses the old lady and her son, they can always rest their legs early and drink saliva.
It's a pity that Princess Liu obviously didn't have the heart to sympathize with the slaves, and obviously heard the sound of everyone giving her son a salute, but she sat in the car and refused to say a word.
It is said that mother and son are by nature, Princess Liu insisted on being angry, and Murong Huaide also made up her mind and refused to give in. Yesterday, he clearly said that he would not marry anyone except the Dong family, and the royal family would not allow it. But the mother concubine asked him to think of a way, he must give his cousin as a concubine, and he even came to the door again today. This is his daughter-in-law's spicy and undeceiving, and he didn't let her in at all, otherwise he wouldn't know what kind of farce he would see when he came back at this time.
Thinking like this, he stood quietly outside the carriage, also with a cold face and refused to say a word.
Their mother and son fought so silently, but they made all the servants of the palace half angry, and secretly cursed in their hearts, but they did not dare to show the slightest annoyance on their faces. The two mothers-in-law, who usually have some faces, looked at the old lady pitifully and begged her silently to think of a way.
The old lady also stood with her legs stiff and dizzy, and she couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to persuade her.
But before she could speak, seven or eight fast horses and a carriage came to the mouth of the alley, and the man at first was dressed in a chaser shirt and an octagonal gauze hat, and he could be recognized from a long distance as a palace attendant, and the men who rode and drove behind were all guards with horizontal swords at their waists.
A smile flashed in Murong Huaide's eyes, and he turned around to greet him, and said with a smile, "Manager Wang, the weather is so hot, why did you go this way?" ”
The eunuch surnamed Wang jumped off the horse, hurriedly helped Murong Huaide with a smile, and responded, "The prince has tormented the slave, today is the prince of the world, how dare the slave not run in person?" ”
The two of them were greeting each other, but Princess Liu in the carriage couldn't bear it, she hurriedly helped the old lady's men to get out of the carriage, and went straight to the king's servant, and asked suspiciously, "Manager Wang, why do you have time to go out for a walk?" ”
The king's chamberlain is a fine person, he glanced at the closed door, and replied with a haha, "Don't be anxious, let the prince quickly put the incense case to receive the decree, and after the decree is announced in a while, the lady will know." ”
Murong Huaide didn't want to make any extraneous trouble, so he shouted loudly to the porter to open the middle door and prepare the incense case, and sent someone to the backyard to spread the word.
Dong Rong took a nap after drinking the soothing soup, and finally felt much better at this time. She was about to call someone to boil a bowl of red date porridge to cushion her stomach, but Zizhu and Yiba ran in from outside in a panic. One rushed into the wardrobe and began to choose clothes randomly, and the other picked up a comb and began to arrange the makeup for the master.
Dong Rong was shocked by the appearance of the two girls, and asked, "What's the matter, there are guests at home?" ”
Zizhu's subordinates quickly tied up their hair buns, and at the end of the day, they replied while inserting a golden hairpin, "Madam, the master has sent a message in the front yard, asking you to hurry up and receive the order." ”
"Order?" Dong Rong frowned suspiciously, and when the two girls finally dressed her up, they hurried to the front yard.
Murong Huaide was sitting in the living room drinking tea with the royal chamberlain, and Princess Liu was sitting with her niece with a gloomy face, the aunt and nephew didn't know what they were thinking, and the handkerchief in their hands was crumpled like a twist.
As soon as Dong Rong entered the door with the maid, Murong Huaide got up to greet him and asked in a low voice, "Are you feeling better?" If you feel uncomfortable, ask the doctor to come. With that, he looked at his wife's slightly bulging belly with a worried expression.
Dong Rong shook her head with a smile, and also responded in a low voice, "Don't worry, your son is really good." ”
The little couple whispered so intimately that the king's chamberlain stared at Dong Rong several times regardless of the rules, but in the end, they didn't see anything surprising about this woman who was only handsome, and she could be so favored by the prince of Zhongshan.
(There is still a chapter later, while my son is sleeping, hurry up and wash clothes, and then continue to code words, come on!) )R638
