Chapter 290: Gathering Momentum
By the time Xuanhui returned to his yard tiredly, the hand stove in his arms was already cold. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Caiwei opened the curtain for her, and as soon as she entered the door, she felt that the room was full of spring.
When Pei Minzhong saw her come in, he pulled her to sit by the brazier: "Don't be in a hurry to change your clothes first, wait until your body is warm and then take off your coat." ”
He turned his head again and instructed the maid: "Set the rice, go and bring the pot first." ”
Xuan Hui rubbed his hands and smiled: "You haven't eaten yet?" ”
Pei Minzhong put her hand into his arms and said with a smile: "The lady is tired from running around outside, how can I enjoy the food by myself?" ”
Xuanhui scratched the bridge of his tall nose and smiled as he replaced his snow-soaked shoes.
Pei Minzhong saw that her face was tired, and couldn't help asking, "Is the princess okay?" ”
Xuanhui nodded and shook his head again. "It was Aunt Lan who had a miscarriage, and my sister-in-law had nothing to do......"
At this time, the maid came up with dinner, and the two had dinner quietly, and sat together and talked for a while. Then Xuanhui went to the clean room to wash, and when he came back, he got into the bed.
Pei Minzhong blew out all the lights, leaving only one to put next to the bed. He saw Xuanhui staring blankly at the top of the bed, so he reached out and hugged her in his arms.
The wind outside seemed to have stopped, and not a single roar of the north wind could be heard in the house. The two of them snuggled up to each other so quietly, as if time had stood still.
After a long time, Pei Minzhong sighed softly. Xuanhui came back to her senses and asked, "What's wrong with you?" But what's the trouble? ”
Pei Minzhong hugged her tightly, buried his head in her hair, and said depressedly: "If there is such a thing in the palace in the future, don't go to ......"
Xuanhui breathed for a while, and said faintly: "Do you blame me for interfering too much in my mother's affairs?" ”
Pei Minzhong twisted her ears and said, "Where do you want to go!" Whatever you want, I'll always support you...... It's just that this inner courtyard of the prince is not so calm. You want to be good with the princess again...... Every time something like this happens, you have to come back for a few days, and sometimes you have to trouble me......"
Xuan Hui chuckled: "Why is it still affecting you?" ”
Pei Minzhong pretended to be aggrieved and said: "If you're not happy, I'm not happy either...... There are also these wives and concubines in the palace, and I have to show my loyalty to you again...... You know that if you say it too much, it won't sound so good! ”
Xuanhui turned around and hugged him back, and said with a smile: "Pei Aiqing's loyalty, Lone knows it!" I won't let you be wronged in the future! ”
Pei Minzhong stretched out his hand to itch it, and said with a smile in his mouth: "The little girl is still setting up a score in front of me!" See how I clean you up! ”
Xuanhui couldn't help laughing, begging for mercy again and again, and the two of them laughed together for a while before stopping.
"The third brother is quite clear in major matters, but he is a little too affectionate...... I don't know how Aunt Lan was born well, so he even blamed his sister-in-law for ......"
Pei Minzhong said: "The Li family only has the card of Concubine Shuniang, but if you know how to play, the winning chance is considerable." ”
Xuanhui said worriedly: "That's why I want to help my sister-in-law and Mao'er more......"
Pei Minzhong said: "Although we are relatives of the prince, since ancient times, the dispute over the country has been treacherous, and it is not uncommon to subvert the entire court. Although the prince is soft-hearted, he will not be so confused that he will abolish the heirs and the young. Whether it is for the sake of the family or children and grandchildren, we should not get too deep. ”
This was the first time that Pei Minzhong had dismissed her meaning so seriously, Xuanhui was silent for a moment, and asked, "Then what if the third brother really wants to abolish the heir?" Shall we ignore it too? ”
In her previous life, Xu Yingjiao changed from a princess to a concubine, and Liang Hao changed from a concubine to a concubine, perhaps because of this, Liang Zhan wanted to change the crown prince?
But in any case, Liang Hao is the ancestor of Xuanhui's previous life, and she can't stand by and watch.
Pei Minzhong thought for a while and said: "Whether a prince is virtuous or not is a matter of opinion, and the harm of fighting for the country is far greater than the appointment of a mediocre prince. If the prince really wants to let go of the eldest son and set up a concubine, it will be a major event that will shake the country, and we naturally can't help but persuade it. ”
Xuanhui nodded, as long as you say this, it is enough.

As the New Year approaches, families are busy. This year, Mrs. Tai sent Mother Kang to give New Year's gifts to her relatives, but asked Xuanhui to smell a trace of unusual smell.
"Who were the people who gave the gifts in previous years?" Xuanhui asked.
Cai Wei said: "The Guogong Mansion has a special mother-in-law who goes out with the master and goes to various houses for the master, and rarely sends a mother who serves her to go out. I haven't heard that Kang's mother went out to give gifts in previous years. ”
Xuanhui instructed: "You should inquire about me, Mother Kang went to the homes of relatives, what did she say besides sending it......"
Before he could say a word, a maid reported through the curtain: "Princess Qiyu, Grandma Feng has come to see you." ”
The people from the third old man's family came over, this is a rare guest. Xuanhui thought about it, and at the same time ordered to invite in.
Grandma Feng Si walked in with a smile and saluted Xuanhui, and Xuanhui returned the salute. Grandma Feng Si exclaimed: "This can't be helped! You are a princess, your status is noble, how can you give me a gift! ”
Xuan Hui took her hand, invited her to sit down, and then smiled: "You and I are concubines of the same generation, and it should be so." When I was not married in the palace, my father and mother had already taught me many times. ”
Grandma Feng Si sighed: "The first emperor and the virtuous concubine are such noble people, and they still want to be like this, it really slaps the face of those who take Qiao's example!" ”
When the maid came up with tea, Xuan Hui smiled and said, "Speaking of which, this is the second time that the fourth sister-in-law has come back to my yard!" The first time I got married, I was tired of my fourth sister-in-law that day. ”
The smile on Grandma Fengsi's face was a little sarcastic, and she said: "I want to come to the princess to sit here every day, but there are two floors of father-in-law, mother-in-law, and a younger brother and sister who are staring at me everywhere all the time, which is really not idle." ”
Xuanhui smiled: "It's okay." We are close relatives, even if we don't move around diligently, our hearts are close. ”
Grandma Feng hurriedly smiled: "That's exactly what happened! Today, I received an errand from my mother-in-law so that I had time to come. ”
Xuanhui smiled and picked up the tea bowl and drank it slowly. She believed that the person in front of her was going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, and instead of the two of them going around in circles like this, it was better to take a good time and wait for her next step.
"Mrs. Qian'er sent Mother Kang to our house to deliver a gift and sent the list of guests for the New Year's banquet, saying that we should be right, don't treat you seriously."
"Mother Kang also said......" Grandma Feng Si looked at Xuanhui's expression and said cautiously, "Mrs. Tai has an illness, and her heart is cold...... Knowing that the prince is the one who controls the government, he will not sue him for disobedience and unfilial piety...... Only at the New Year's family banquet, the property of the Guogong Mansion was divided, and because the eleventh brother was the grandson of the old grandfather, he would share more. The rest of the families have a share, as long as they can speak for her......"
