Who reads the west wind is cold alone, and Xiao Xiao Huangye closes the window

The damp, low cell was dark and smelled musty. On the messy and damp straw mat www.biquge.info the pen, a woman in a dirt-stained white prison robe bowed her head, a deathly silence, her originally delicate arms covered with bloody whip marks.

Suddenly, there was a sound of broken footsteps, and the cell door was opened, and a pair of dark red gold silk peony embroidered shoes fell into the dark eyes. "You're finally here" The woman in prison clothes was less than twenty years old, but her tone contained a calmness that was beyond her age.

"I once said that you are the smartest person in my Liang country, you really didn't disappoint me" The woman's phoenix eyes were cold, her face was like condensed fat, and her lips seemed to contain Dan, but she was really a country with a beautiful appearance. The dark red phoenix robe, the gold silk is delicately embroidered with a hundred birds and phoenix patterns, the cuffs are embroidered with glazed blue brocade threads with the peony pattern that symbolizes noble status, and the bun wears a phoenix crown inlaid with rubies, not angry and self-assured.

"I, Wei Hanlian, have been famous since I was a child, and I was planted in Princess Li, oh no, now I should be called Queen Li, but I am just like the strategist rabbit and dead dog cooked by the historical calligrapher in the past, and the bird is hidden in the bow." Wei Hanlian slowly stood up with difficulty, and looked directly at the noble woman with a clear breeze and arrogance, "I don't complain about the sky, I only hate myself for not knowing people wisely, misidentifying the lord, causing a catastrophe for my Wei family, affecting my parents, brothers, and relatives in the family."

Empress Li raised her eyebrows, "You are the first female strategist of my Daliang, helping the emperor ascend to the throne, and I Li Yueyi admires your wisdom and strategy, but I will never leave a woman by my side who is admired by the emperor", Empress Li stepped forward slightly and lowered his voice.

"Even if I don't set a trap and let your Wei family be saddled with treason, do you think the emperor will really keep you? I'm just helping the emperor clear your Wei family. Also, your parents and brother have already sentenced the car to Xing, and today they will be punished at the Nanwangmen Execution Ground."

Han Lian was stunned suddenly, "Didn't the sixth master promise me to only sentence me to exile?!" Suddenly, he came to his senses and vomited out a mouthful of dirty blood, "He is ruthless, so he will let me keep Wei's mouth alive and let the world criticize him."

Suddenly, he laughed uncontrollably, and his night-like eyes revealed a cruelty, and he exclaimed, "Father, mother, the child is wrong. The royal family is cold, and it is difficult to be a strategist, let alone a woman. In the end, I have not been able to save your 、、、." Turning to an arrow step, he picked up the celadon wine glass on the wooden table of the cell, raised his head and drank it all.

"The princess came to explain to me today that my father and brother are Xing, such a great kindness, Han Lian can't repay it", Wei Hanlian snorted indifferently, "I only remind the queen mother at the end, help the sixth master get rid of me, the sixth master will reward you, but you should be careful with food and spices、、、 cough cough、、、 you haven't come out of the palace for four years, cough cough 、、、 isn't it strange、、、

"You 、、、"

"Poof、、、 spat out a mouthful of black blood, Han Lian felt the feeling of tightness in her chest disappear, and her body was light, as if the whole person was sinking in water. The slender body fell back, and it was finally over, everything was over, and Han Lian closed her eyes. In less than 20 years of life, I calculated everywhere, calculated others, but did not calculate my own fate, if God had mercy on me again, I would be obscure, not seeking fame and tiredness, only seeking to shade my relatives.

"Miss, miss?" A girl who looked like she was twelve or thirteen years old cried out urgently.

Han Lian felt a little surprised, and in her memory, she drank the poisonous wine given by Li Houci and ended her life as the first female strategist of Min Liang. But what's going on now? I felt a hoarse pain in my throat and a groggy head, as if I weighed a thousand pounds. Barely open his eyes, the light in the room is soft, the red bed is carved with delicate butterfly patterns, and the cloisonnΓ© brocade is embroidered with auspicious pictures. "Ahem, ahem......" Han Lian felt that her entire lungs were about to cough out.

"Miss is awake, Juan'er is going to call Mrs. Houye", an old mother who is a little older hurriedly ordered, "Huixin quickly beckons the little guy outside the second gate to invite Dr. Yu."

Han Lian struggled to sit up, but saw that her hands were as petite as a five or six-year-old child, and then looked at her body, it was clearly a child's body.

Before she could recover her senses, she heard a rush of footsteps. "My son, you are awake", I saw a gentle but noble woman sitting on the edge of the bed, her cheeks slightly red from the hurry, but she couldn't hide her pale face and the blue and black shadows under her eyes that were covered with fat powder, and touched the forehead of this body with her hand.

"Fortunately, my son is blessed, and the fever has subsided."

Then he asked, "Did Mother Cui ask someone to invite Dr. Yu?" ”。

Cui's mother hurriedly replied: "I sent the little maid to invite it early in the morning, and Mrs. Please be relieved."

"Madame don't have to worry, since Nuan'er's fever has subsided, I think I have survived this life and death hurdle, and see what Dr. Yu said when he came", the man standing next to Mrs. was erect, and after hearing that his daughter's fever had subsided, his frowning brows were slightly relaxed, and he hurriedly comforted his wife.

While speaking, the girl outside the door came in to inform that Dr. Yu had arrived, and the lady hurriedly collected her tears and let the doctor in.

After a while, Dr. Yu got up and blessed, "Miss is fine this time, but after drowning and falling asleep for so many days, it is normal for her mind to be dizzy." However, after all, the young lady has been closed from the ghost gate, and she has to take care of her life so that she will not fall into the root of the disease. Lao Yu first prescribed a few medicines for the young lady to take, and the qi and blood were cleared, and he came to see the pulse again in three days. ”

"Such a little girl will have Dr. Lao, please", Master Hou led Dr. Yu to the outer courtyard.

"What do you want to eat? Mother went to tell the kitchen to prepare. ”

After such a while, Han Lian's heart also understood, presumably her soul was entrusted to this girl, it seems that God is not thin on herself, and gave herself a second life. However, Han Lian didn't know when and where it was, so she slowly began to try. "Ahem mother, the child just wants to drink some clear porridge. There is a stove in this house, and the child is very cold. ”

"Cui's mother quickly asked someone to raise the stove, although it is April, but the young lady has fallen into the water after all, and she can't stand the cold."

"Mother Xie, it's just that 、、、 cough cough、、、 daughter wants to ask a mage to drive it away, and this water is also unlucky." Childlike frowns.

"My silly boy, thank you. However, the Empress Dowager Xiaoren, the head of the palace, had just passed away a few years ago, and it was inconvenient to invite the mage to her home to do a lot of work. After two months, Nuan'er will be in good health, and my mother will accompany you to the Guangfu Temple on the outskirts of the city to pray for blessings, and ask Master Guanghui to order pure water for you to chant and pray for blessings to drive away bad luck. ”

Very good, Han Lian thought to herself, Empress Dowager Xiaoren, the third empress dowager of the Northern Han Dynasty, should not only be reborn, but also returned to the twenty-sixth year of Jiahe, that is, the eighteenth year of Min Liang Guoantai, and there are still twelve years before the death of King Min Hui, that is, fifteen years ago. And he was reborn in the Northern Han, the strongest of the five kingdoms. Thinking about the tragic death of his father and brother in his previous life and the exile of his relatives, Han Lian's heart is even more determined, since he has occupied this body, he must also honor his parents, love his brothers and sisters, and protect his relatives from harm. smiled at his wife, "Naturally, I listen to my mother."

"Guan Qingnuan, you can be regarded as awake", before anyone could be seen, a clear shout came into his ears. Han Lian heard the greetings of the girls outside, "Shiziye", presumably his own brother-in-law. The seventeen or eighteen-year-old man had a jade crown and a sharp look between his eyebrows and eyes, and quickly stepped into the house. "Do you know how worried your father and mother are about you these days? Parents who suffer from the body, if you play so much and don't spare your life, you are disrespectful and unfilial, and I think you have completely forgotten the etiquette and filial piety taught by the Master. ”

"Your warm sister just woke up, and you reprimanded you like this, and I don't know how to feel sorry for your sister."

"Nuan'er is relying on your mercy to fall into the water so recklessly, my mother can't get used to her in the future."

"What my brother said is that Nuan'er is worrying about her parents and brother." Although this brother wants to be an eldest brother, his gentle eyes and concerned eyes reveal his love for his sister. The so-called love is deeply responsible.

"Sister Nuan, don't listen to the nonsense of the eldest brother, just this one sister, how can you not be spoiled", and came in as a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, maybe he was tired of the identity of the son, but this brother was more cheerful and chic. He bowed his hand to his mother and said goodbye.

"It's still the second child who will feel sorry for my sister."

It seems that this family is very harmonious and loving to each other, and the two brothers talked with each other for a while before being driven back to their yard by their mother to warm up their classes. Mother personally fed Qing Nuan porridge and medicine, and was also persuaded by Qing Nuan and Cui's mother to go back to rest.

Han Lian, Qing Nuan, one life and two lives, you can't live up to God's mercy, collect all the edge, in this life, an ordinary woman is good.

More than ten days have passed, and Qing Nuan's body has also improved a lot, and she can already move on the ground. During this period, Qing Nuan found the mothers and wives in the house who were often running outside, and asked Min Liang Wei's family tentatively, but the result was a big disappointment to Qing Nuan - no one had heard of Min Liang's Wei family.

At the beginning, the Wei family was also regarded as a first-class general, and Wei Hanlian was enlightened at the age of three, knew four books and five classics at the age of five, learned the art of war at the age of six, and began to write the theory of strategy at the age of seven - "Conspiracy Theory", and was personally summoned by Emperor Min Hui at the age of eight to study at the Hanlin Academy.

If you want to be reborn in your own life, most of the history has changed, so you don't want to delve into it, and if you don't have your relatives in your past life, you have to honor your parents and brothers in this life. Qing Nuan was a strategist in his last life, and what he was best at was to figure out people's hearts, and from the mouths of those individuals, he had also inquired about the situation in this house for more than ten days.

My grandparents died five years ago, and I have a father and two uncles, both of whom are in exile. His father was the Marquis of Weiyuan, a hereditary title, who served in Zhongshu Province and was trusted by the emperor. The mother is the eldest granddaughter of the old marquis of Wending, the old marquis, the old lady, the maternal grandmother, and the maternal grandfather are all alive, and there are two uncles, one is on an errand in the inner court, and the other is in charge of the defense of the capital in the Shenji Battalion. This family is really noble.

"Sister Nuan is feeling better these days?" The eldest brother, Guan Qingzheng, seems to have just returned home from the Hanlin Academy. This eldest brother's temperament is clear, and he is used to pretending to be serious and serious outside and in front of his father and mother, but in front of several brothers and sisters, he will show a different lively side.

"The eldest brother also said that the eldest brother has four days to see Nuan Mei in the future", Qing Nuan pretended to be angry. In order to make up for the regrets of the previous life, in this life, she really values family affection the most, and she also likes the relationship of her family very much. Although it has only been a few days, I really accept this family of mutual respect and love in my heart.

"Sister Nuan, don't be angry, it's really busy when you come to Hanlin Academy."

"I'm not angry, it's just that my mother has to talk about it every time after dinner these days," she said, learning the tone of her mother, "'I don't know if I've eaten well outside these days, and I don't know if I've rested well outside at night.'"

"Haha, you girl, you're used to being weird", she said and took out an object from her sleeve pocket, "Sister Nuan, look what is this?" ”

took the delicate lacquer red box and opened it, "Wow, such a transparent red agate handpiece, where did the eldest brother get it?" ”

"It was my uncle's cousin Lin Yuan's cousin who asked me to come to me, saying that my cousin-in-law had opened a light in Guangfu Temple, and my sister was young, so it was best to keep her safe. I also asked my sister how she has been getting better recently, and she will follow her aunt to visit another day. ”

"Then the big brother is going to thank my cousin and sister-in-law for me." As he spoke, he put the bracelet on his hand, and the red and crystal bracelet reflected the skin of the petite wrist like snow.

"Nuan Mei is really beautiful when she wears it. It's time for my father to come back, I'll go to the outer courtyard to say hello to my father, you are so resting. With that, Qing Nuan got up and sent the eldest brother out of the door.

At dinnertime, the whole family was ready. The official father Guan Qike is loyal and upright, and there is no messy aunt in the house, and the official mother is a capable person, and she hugged the two three years before the door.

Later, several years later, when I thought that I would not have a daughter in my life, I was pregnant with Qing Nuan again, and I was looking forward to finally having a girl. The official father was even more pleased, and immediately named him Qingnuan, hoping that his daughter would "join the old man and Qingqing" in the future.

"Nuan'er is getting better these days? looked a lot more ruddy. After the meal, the official father smiled and asked Qing Nuan. Well, it's a lot better, and Father Lao is worried."

"Although my son has gone through this catastrophe, he is a blessing and misfortune, and he is much quieter and more sensible than in the past, and his wife has taught him well."

"Master Hou doesn't want to praise her, two days ago, he also took away Cui's mother and Sister Huixin, and took Juan'er to slip through the corner gate, fortunately, she was seen by Zhang's mother who returned to the house and brought to me."

Speaking of this, Qing Nuan pouted at Zhang's mother, blaming Zhang's mother, otherwise she would have slipped out. Mother Zhang is the official mother's mother, and treats Qing Nuan like a child in her own family, looking at Qing Nuan's little mouth towards herself, she can't hide her smile and says: "Madame, don't say anything more, look at Miss's little mouth, you can almost hang a teapot."

"I think Nuanmei's illness is clever, she used to be honest, but now she can actually get Cui's mother and them out of the way and haven't been found yet, the children can be taught" The second brother took a sip of the tea brought by the girl, and continued.

"Haha, it's good for my daughter's family to be smart, and if she marries a wife in the future, she won't be bullied by others" The eldest brother even joked about Qing Nuan.

"Big brother!!" Qing Nuan followed Min Taosheng to plan in the court in her previous life, and no one dared to propose marriage to a famous female strategist from all over the world, but now that Guan Qingzheng said this, her face was even more red, not to mention that she was still a six-year-old child.

"I just sent Wan Li to Lord Liu's mansion today, and the eldest brother is going to get married, don't you hope that the sister-in-law is also a clever person?" The second child saw that his beloved little sister was blackened like that by the eldest brother, so he naturally disagreed.

Qing Nuan also fought back: "What the second brother said is very true, Sister Yi and Mrs. Liu came to visit me before, and when they talked about the eldest brother, they blushed, hehe."

A few days ago, Liu Yiyi and Liu's mother came to visit Qing Nuan, who was recovering from a serious illness, Qing Nuan looked at Liu's mother as a virtuous mother, and Sister Yiyi was even more gentle and demure.

However, Qing Nuan also likes this future sister-in-law, and the eldest brother must be very happy in his heart. "Hmph, you two are used to having one nostril to puff out, and you join hands to bully big brother me", Guan Qingzheng was slightly embarrassed.

"Yes, there is still a month before Qing'er gets married, and the children have grown up one by one", the official mother sighed with some emotion, and said to the second brother Guan Qingzhi: "When your eldest brother's marriage is over, you should start it."

Qing Nuan looked at the official mother a little sentimental, and wanted to speak out for relief, but it was the official father who loved his wife, and hurriedly said: "When the child is older, you can worry less about snacks, the eldest is studying in the Hanlin Academy, and the second is practicing in the Shenji Camp, the children are so promising, and the lady should be happy." Besides, isn't there still a warm child by your side? I don't think it's okay for Nuan'er to stay for two more years, my Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is just this one daughter-in-law, and it's not too late to talk about it when everything is over."

"Haha", Qing Nuan looked at her father's love for her mother, and couldn't help laughing, "It doesn't hurt if the mother likes the child, it's also excellent to give Nuan Er a little brother or little sister, hehe."

Seeing her daughter smiling, the official mother faked her anger: "You girl, even your mother dares to joke." Everyone talked together for a while, and the official mother gave the chestnut crisp she had made herself to each courtyard, and then they all went back to the courtyard.

The Weiyuan Marquis Mansion is also one of the best mansions in the capital, and the Qingshui Courtyard where the official secretary lives warmly, and the Qinghu Lake leaning on the garden of the Hou Mansion are considered a quiet place.

The eldest brother Guan Qing is the son of the world, who lives in the second largest courtyard in the Hou Mansion - Qingqiu Courtyard, the second brother Guan Qingzhi lives in the Qinghu Courtyard adjacent to the eldest brother, and the official father and mother live in the main courtyard Zhengfu Courtyard.

When passing by Qinghu, Qing Nuan stopped to look at the calm lake, and heard Cui's mother say that they had just walked away and fell into the water, Qing Nuan knew that she was suspicious, but she couldn't help but say that it was too strange, her body was only six years old, and she was the pearl of the Hou Mansion, how could it be that the girls and mothers were all taken away at once?

I just heard my father and mother say that the two cousins of the second uncle's family were about to enter Beijing, and my father and mother's eyebrows were slightly frowned, but it seemed that this peaceful Hou Mansion was not as calm as it seemed.
