Chapter 14: Into the Eye
When the queen heard this, she was overjoyed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info she has been afraid of the concubine for a long time, but it's a pity that her stomach is not angry, and the eldest prince and the second prince are all from the concubine. It wasn't until the second prince was eleven years old that he gave birth to the fifth prince with all odds. Thinking about the days at that time, it was really sad that there was a concubine who was spoiled and spoiled, and then a concubine was pregnant again.
At that time, there were rumors in the palace that Concubine Shu's abdomen was abnormal, and maybe she was a pair of twins. The queen had just conceived the fifth prince at that time, and she was very panicked. One is afraid that he will not be able to give birth smoothly, the second is afraid that the princess will be born, and the third is afraid that the concubine will have another pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses. At that time, Li Jingyuan had a pox, and the queen mother was all about her, ignoring the queen's worries at all.
Helplessly, the queen took action herself, sent her subordinates to buy off the imperial doctor, and did something in Concubine Shu's oxytocic medicine. In the end, Concubine Shu's child was not born, and she went by herself. Emperor Yuan He felt that something was wrong and found out to the imperial doctor. Seeing that the fire was about to burn on herself, the queen had no choice but to invite the queen mother to come out, saving the life of the imperial doctor and making Emperor Yuanhe stop the investigation.
At that time, although the third prince was young, he knew that it was the Queen Mother who did not let Emperor Yuanhe investigate the cause of Concubine Shu's death again. During that time, the three princes made trouble in Cining Palace in different ways, splashing oil on the steps, catching a few spiders and throwing them in the house, or pricking needles on the mat where the Queen Mother often sits. It wasn't until the Queen Mother caught him and beat him and Duan Min together and grounded him for three months that it stopped.
“…… The imperial brother also rewarded the prince of Chengguo and the eldest grandson of Changyi, who went with him. gave the prince the official position of commanding the affairs of the fourth grade brocade guard, and rewarded the identity of the superintendent of the eldest son of Changyi. Funing said.
The Queen Mother's heart moved, and she said: "The emperor is really caring to the Xue family!" Knowing that people want to take the imperial examination, they will reward a prisoner. Chang Yibo, an old fox, has been favored by his daughter for a few years, and he is proud of the sky! Is Yuan'er still messing around at home these days? ”
Fu Ning sighed and said, "It's better than before." But the knot with her father is getting deeper and deeper......"
The Queen Mother scolded: "Li Xu deserves it!" Every day is rich and idlery, and he doesn't worry about everything. The daughter said that she kissed her father and put her father's money! Look at what kind of people he showed Yuan'er? Poor people, there is no shadow of a jinshi, and I still want to marry Yuan'er, what kind of spring and autumn dreams are I doing! The Xue family is not a thing, and his surname Li is also a bastard! One by one, you all don't let me worry! ”
Seeing that even she was scolded, the queen hurriedly excused herself: "The queen mother, don't be angry, this good teenager in the capital has not a thousand but five hundred, where can he wronged our Wen Jin!" By the way, isn't there one on this mouth? ”
The Queen Mother frowned and said, "Who?" Don't mention anyone who doesn't care about anything! ”
The queen said aggrievedly: "Look at what you said! I am Wen Jin's aunt, and I am still Wen Jin's cousin from my mother's side, how can I not worry about her! Fang just said that the emperor rewarded two, except for Xue Yuanhan, isn't there still a prince of Chengguo? ”
The Queen Mother listened and pondered.
Fu Ning felt that it was inappropriate, and said: "Although Pei Shizi lives in the capital now, the Chengguo Mansion is far away in Jinling, and he will always have to go back in the future." When the time comes, won't Yuan'er be ordinary and can't even see each other? ”
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "His father is only in his early forties this year, and there will be twenty years before his son Chengjue." Even if Yuan'er wants to go back with you at that time, leaving one or two children with you, isn't it okay? You just have too many concerns, and if you do this again, Wen Jin will have to be delayed by you! Take advantage of my birthday, call the child into the palace for me to see. As long as the person who marries is good, you don't have to worry about it! ”
Fu Ning had to respond first, but his heart was very entangled.
-------------------------------------
In a blink of an eye, it was April 20, the birthday of the Queen Mother.
In the early morning, the foreign women waited outside the Donghua Gate and Xihua Gate to meet them. Hundreds of officials received a birthday banquet outside the noon gate.
It was not until the beginning of the afternoon that the foreign woman left the palace after the pilgrimage, and the birthday banquet in the palace began in the Jiaotai Palace.
The queen mother sat upright, the emperor and queen sat on both sides, and the concubines, princes, and princesses were in place in order.
Li Jingyuan sat under Xuanhui, her face was sad. Xuanhui didn't want to pay attention to her, and only paid attention to the birthday gifts given by the people in the palace. He Jing's five-foot-long crane Shou Tongchun entered the eyes of the Queen Mother, was praised for his intentions, and received many rewards.
Li Jingyuan pouted and said, "She'll make these small!" Those who are usually silent will be flattered. ”
Duan Min said: "Twenty-four filial piety said that the queen mother is our grandmother, and it is the responsibility of her children and grandchildren to spend hard work to make her old man smile." ”
Li Jingyuan whispered to Xuanhui: "Your eldest sister is so serious every day, isn't she tired?" With that, he covered his mouth with a handkerchief and snickered.
Xuanhui ignored her, got up and knelt down in front of the Queen Mother to congratulate her birthday, and then said: "The granddaughter made a special song the day before yesterday to congratulate the Queen Mother on her birthday." Wait for the next bounce, do you like it or not? ”
Emperor Yuan He smiled: "Your ability is getting bigger and bigger, and you haven't heard the music made by Shu'er." Today, my father is also touched by the light of the Queen Mother, listen to it. If you can get the queen mother's favor, your father will be rewarded! ”
The Queen Mother smiled and nodded.
Pei Min Center, who was waiting outside the palace, kept thinking about why the Queen Mother summoned her when she was celebrating her birthday in the palace. My father wrote a letter to ask him to prepare a gift for the Chengguo Mansion and sent it with the officials. Wait a few auspicious words, and the rest depends on how the Queen Mother commands.
Just thinking about it, there was a sound of the piano from the hall, clear and tactful, like gurgling water among the pines, and the aftertaste was long, like the echo of the valley. Pei Min was surprised, he had never heard this piece before, and although he was not proficient in playing the piano, he was full of emotion. He was stunned, and silently memorized the score in his heart.
When the sound of the piano ended, there seemed to be people in the hall applauding and laughing. After another moment, a palace maid came out to summon Pei Minzhong to enter.
Pei Minzhong looked at his nose and nose all the way, and followed behind the palace maid. I only heard the palace maid say: "Returning to the Holy Lord, the Queen Mother, the Empress, the prince of Chengguo has arrived." ”
Pei Minzhong calmly knelt down and kowtowed: "Minister Pei Minzhong greets the saint, the queen mother, and the queen!" Congratulations to the Queen Mother on her birthday, and wish the Queen Mother good health and blessings! ”
An old female voice laughed, "Get up! What a neat child, look up and let me take a closer look. ”
Pei Minzhong raised his face, his eyes were still looking down, but he saw Xuanhui sitting next to Emperor Yuan He, who was taking off the armor she used to play the piano in her hand. Pei Min realized that it was her who had just played the piano.
"I heard the emperor say, you accompanied the third prince this time, hey, now you have to change your name to King An. You're doing a good job. Yesterday, I saw the birthday gift from the Chengguo Mansion, and I liked it very much. I heard that this birthday gift was also prepared by you? The Queen Mother spoke to Pei Minzhong kindly.
The Queen Mother praised it. Everything was arranged properly by His Royal Highness King An, and the ministers just did what they were told. Because my father was in the army and my mother was far away in Jinling, my father instructed me to choose a birthday gift for the Queen Mother. Being liked by the Queen Mother is a blessing for the minister's family. Pei Minzhong replied in a deep voice.
The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction: "Not arrogant or impatient, he is a good boy." Have you been married at home? ”
