Chapter 307: Geng's Clan
As soon as Princess Jun followed the emperor into the royal car, she fell asleep in the emperor's arms yawning, and the emperor looked down at her, and then changed to a position where she leaned more comfortably. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Princess Rui and Shenglang and Huanniang sat together in the back of the sedan chair, and the three children were still making trouble in the chariot when you touched me and pinched you, especially Princess Rui and Huanniang, Shenglang in the middle was playing, and there was laughter from time to time.
When he arrived at Changkun Palace, the emperor got off the chariot with Princess Jun in his arms and entered the palace gate of Changkun Palace. ”
The palace people curtsied and replied: "Back to the emperor, Niangniang has already gotten up, and Mrs. Yueguo Gongshi has just handed over a sign to ask to see, and Niangniang is receiving Mrs. Yueguo Gongshizi." ”
The Emperor stopped.
Behind her, Wan Niang heard it, pouted, and looked a little unhappy.
Princess Rui leaned into Wan Niang's ear and whispered: "Your mother is here, she will definitely take you and Brother Sheng back." Wait a minute, you go back with her, and let Brother Sheng stay in the palace. ”
Wan Niang said to Princess Rui dissatisfiedly: "She is not my mother." After a pause, he said, "And my father doesn't like her, my father likes my mother." ”
When the concubine died, Shenglang and Huanniang still remembered, but they still vaguely knew that the stepmother who later married her father was different from her mother, and Huanniang was a little repulsive to her.
The emperor's heart moved when he listened, but he didn't say anything.
The palace people came up, and Geng, the wife of the prince of Yueguo, who was originally talking to Lin Yan, hurriedly stood up and curtsied to Lin Yan.
She is a foreign woman, so she naturally wants to avoid suspicion of the emperor.
The palace people moved the screen, and Geng took refuge behind the screen.
Then the emperor walked in with Princess Jun in his arms and a string of children behind him.
Lin Yan stood up to greet her, and said, "The concubine thought that the emperor had gone to the director of the Qinzheng Palace, why did she come back again?" As he spoke, he saw that he was holding Princess Jun, who was already asleep, and asked, "Jun'er is asleep?" ”
Princess Jun was not fully asleep, and when she heard Lin Yan's voice, she opened her eyes and shouted "Queen Mother", and then closed her eyes again.
The emperor looked at Lin Yan's face, her face was still a little haggard, and asked, "Why don't you sleep for a while?" ”
Lin Yan sighed and said, "I couldn't sleep, so I had to get up, and I just happened to see the princess of Yueguo, so I saw her." ”
The emperor nodded, said a few more words to Lin Yan, knowing that she hadn't finished seeing the guests yet, and said, "I will take Jun'er to sleep first, and you will see Mrs. Dou first." ”
After speaking, he took Jun'er and entered the inner hall.
After the emperor left, the screen was removed, and Geng walked out again. glanced at Princess Rui, Shenglang and Wan Niang, first curtsied to Princess Rui, and then smiled and called to Sheng Lang and Wan Niang: "Sheng Lang, Wan Niang." As he spoke, he also brought some intimacy and flattery, and wanted to pull Shenglang's hand.
As a result, Shenglang avoided it lightly, took a step back, and then respectfully saluted Geng's and called, "I've seen my mother." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Wan Niang, who was standing with Princess Rui and refused to come over to salute, took her hand again, and signaled to her.
Wan Niang reluctantly pouted and called Geng's name: "Mother." ”
Geng's face was a little embarrassed.
looked at Lin Yan quietly, a little worried that the queen would misunderstand that she was not good to them when she saw that the two children were not close to her.
Lin Yan's face was normal, and she smiled lightly, as if she hadn't seen anything.
Geng quickly calmed down, his face regained a sense of tenderness and closeness, and said to Shenglang and Huanniang with a smile: "Shenglang, Huanniang, my mother is here to pick you up and go home." ”
Instead of responding to her words, Shenglang asked, "Mother, is grandmother back?" ”
Geng Shi said a little uncomfortably: "Not yet." ”
After Shenglang and Huanniang were taken into the palace, the Duchess of Yue Guo received the news that her brother's brother was seriously ill, so she went to her mother's house. The Duchess of Yue Guo is married far away, and her mother's family is not in the capital, so she will stay for a few more days after returning to her parents' home.
Seungro didn't speak again, just stood aside.
Geng sighed a little, and then said to Lin Yan: "Niangniang, Shenglang and Huanniang disturbed Niangniang a lot in the palace, and the courtiers were very frightened. The prince of the house did not see the two children for a few days, and he missed it very much, so he let the courtiers enter the palace to pick up Shenglang and Huanniang to return to the house. As he spoke, he lowered his head and said respectfully to Lin Yan: "The courtiers also thank Niangniang for taking care of Shenglang and Huanniang in the past few days. ”
Lin Yan picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea, put down the tea bowl, and then smiled: "Shenglang and Huanniang are the children of the sister of the palace, and they are the nieces of the palace, and the palace also loves them, so they often come into the palace to stay with the palace, which is not a disturbance." After a pause, he said: "It's Madame, on behalf of the sister of the palace, she has worked hard to take care of Shenglang and Huanniang, and the palace should say thank you to Madame." ”
Geng hurriedly knelt down and said in fear: "This is a matter within the courtier's responsibility, and I dare not accept the mother's thanks." ”
As he spoke, he was a little apprehensive in his heart, and he always felt as if the queen had something to say.
Lin Yan said again: "The palace wants Shenglang and Wan Niang to stay with the palace for a few more days, so let them stay in the palace for the time being." Madame rest assured, this palace will take care of Shenglang and Huanniang. ”
Geng's face made a look of embarrassment, and said, "The prince ...... the world."
Lin Yan interrupted her and said, "As for the prince of Yueguo, the palace will let the emperor explain to him." ”
Geng sighed, knowing that she would not be able to take Shenglang and Huanniang out of the palace today.
Geng didn't dare to say anything more, and talked to the queen for a while, and then left the palace.
As soon as the Geng family left, Lin Yan turned around and took Princess Rui and Shenglang Huanniang into the inner hall.
The emperor was sitting on the couch reading a book, and when he saw her come in, he put down the book and stretched out his hand to lead her to sit beside him, and asked her, "What did the lady of the prince of Yue come to the palace to see you?" ”
Lin Yan said: "I want to take Shenglang and Huanniang out of the palace." ”
The emperor saw Shenglang and Huanniang who came in with her, and said, "You didn't let her take them out?" ”
Lin Yan shook her head and said, "No, the Geng family has never taken care of the child when they are young, and the concubine is a little worried. Let's wait for the Duchess of Yue Guo to come back. ”
The emperor smiled, not worried that the Geng family would not take good care of the two children, and he was afraid that the Geng family would be me.
Lin Yan was also a little embarrassed, feeling that she was indeed a little villain.
Since Geng married into the Dou family, she has not seen any bad deeds, but she is guarding against others. But Sheng Lang and Wan Niang are the only two children left by Yan Niang, and Lin Yan would rather think of Geng's family badly than bet on Geng's kindness.
The Duchess of Yue Guo is not in the Yue Guo Mansion, although Yue Guo Gong and Dou Yu are there, they are men and may not be able to take care of the inner house.
Lin Yan looked at Wan Niang, who looked more and more like her mother, and sighed deeply in her heart.
The emperor remembered Wan Niang's rejection of the Geng family just now, and said: "Sheng Lang and Wan Niang don't seem to be close to their stepmother. ”
Lin Yan said: "Shenglang and Huanniang have been raised by the Duchess of Yueguo, and it has been less than a year since the Geng family passed the door, so it is not surprising that they are a little rusty. ”
The Emperor nodded and said nothing more. (To be continued.) )
