Section 448 Motherhood

The conversation between the Queen Mother and the Lord of Sirou County was unknown to everyone except Aunt Cheng, who served.

The people of Beijing only know that the county lord of Sirou officially fell into practice, and voluntarily asked the queen mother to remove her county lord title.

She doesn't want to be disturbed by the world anymore, and wants to be an innocent person.

The Queen Mother agreed, and asked the prince of the prison country to issue a holy decree and remove the title of Sirou County Lord.

It was this incident that caused quite a stir in Kyori.

There was a lot of discussion among the meritorious families in Beijing.

In general, it's a little painful.

The title of a county lord, how many people can't change it in their lives, and King Jian's mansion will lose it if he loses it. Sure enough, it is a real nobleman, born with an atmosphere.

But more than that, it's all speculation about why.

No one is a fool, and he thinks that King Jian's Mansion is really so generous.

There must be other reasons for the matter of Lord Sirou.

So, some people vaguely heard that Princess Gu of Luyang went to sacrifice Princess Jane, and the county lord of Sirou embarrassed Princess Luyang on the spot, and even did it.

Could it be that the matter of the county lord of Sirou is only because of the queen mother's maintenance of Princess Luyang?

This maintenance is really terrifying.

****

Gu Jinzhi also heard her mother talk about it.

Song Pan'er only heard about the dismissal of the county lord of Sirou, and no one mentioned Gu Jinzhi in front of Song Pan'er.

Gu Jinzhi thought of when she entered the palace to complain, but she could guess a few points.

“…… The county lord of Sirou was your second sister's concubine. Your second sister has dealt with her for many years, and she can be regarded as knowing herself and her opponent. I heard your eldest aunt say that your second sister mentioned this matter and was full of disbelief, saying that people like the county lord of Sirou were reluctant to give her the title of county lord. No matter how devout she is, her nature is hard to change. Mother said to Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi nodded, agreeing with his mother's words.

Then, Gu Jinzhi said again: "No one is reluctant." However, people's hearts are unpredictable. The lord of Sirou County lost his husband a few years ago. Now that he has lost his mother again, he is depressed, and it is possible to understand Hongchen for a while. ”

The mother was silent and did not refute Gu Jinzhi.

Within a few days, I heard that the Queen Mother personally issued an edict to build a nunnery for Sirou in the west of the city with King Jian's mansion for Sirou to practice.

The Queen Mother also gave the nunnery a name, called "Changxing Temple", and also gave Sirou the name Huimian Shitai.

Lord of Sirou. became Mrs. Huimian.

Gu Jinzhi thought. Sirou must be reluctant.

And the Queen Mother is willing to make such a killer to Sirou. Undoubtedly speculating on something.

Such speculation is beneficial to Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun.

Gu Jinzhi was silent and did not enter the palace again.

It's July.

July in the capital is extremely hot. The sun shines like a fire. The world is baked like a furnace, and the flowers and trees are dying.

Yan Ying followed Chen Dingwen to practice martial arts, and suffered a little heat stroke.

Gu Jinzhi asked Chen Dingwen: "Do you want to stop for a few days and wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival to study?" ”

Yan Ying is young and can't bear such hard practice.

But Chen Dingwen feels that the practice of martial arts cannot be wasted for a day.

Especially in children, endurance is inherently insufficient. If he wastes a few days, he tastes the sweetness, and he will never be serious again.

Chen Dingwen knew that the princess loved the child. is also reasonable, so he told Gu Jinzhi his thoughts: "It is indeed very hot during the day, and it is not suitable to practice martial arts outside." Fortunately, the boat hall in the outer courtyard is spacious and shady, and the princess might as well clean it up. Changed to the place where the second young master practiced martial arts......"

Gu Jinzhi thought for a while and said, "It's okay, I'll ask someone to clean it up today." ”

Chen Dingwen hurriedly thanked him.

He knew that Gu Jinzhi supported him very much and respected him, so he taught Yanying to be even more serious.

Yan Ying practiced martial arts alone and did not shout tired, which Gu Jinzhi was quite pleased.

On July 21, it was the birthday of Gu Jinzhi's third son, Yanshao.

Yan Shao is already two years old.

Compared with his two elder brothers, he is even more naughty and lively, better than Yanying. Gu Jinzhi personally took him, and sometimes he was so tired that he was out of breath.

A two-year-old child, innocent and romantic, he loves whoever is good to him.

Gu Jinzhi refuses to miss any of the child's growth, and doesn't want the child to only know the nurse in his heart, not her biological mother, so he would rather be affected and spend time with the child every day.

Yan Shao is also close to Gu Jin.

Gu Jinzhi's stomach grew up day by day, sometimes her back hurt, and the maids and servants were frightened, and they all persuaded her to rest more.

"It's okay, my own body, I know it. Like peasant women, with such a big belly, they still have to work in the fields. Gu Jinzhi said with a smile, "If you are tired, it will be easier when you are on the plate." ”

The maids and servants thought to themselves, how can this princess compare herself to a peasant woman? Even the little maid in this house is a little more noble than the peasant woman, let alone the princess?

The more Gu Jinzhi compares like this, the more others don't know how to persuade him.

A few who serve will say no more.

On the evening of the day before Yan Shao's birthday, it rained heavily.

In the early morning of the 21st, the weather was full of sweetness and coolness.

The green leaves of the treetops were washed by the rain, the dust fell, and the green leaves became more and more tender and green. It's crisp to the eye, and it adds a bit of coolness.

In the middle of summer, this kind of weather is rare.

And today, there are also a few clouds in the sky, which weaken the heat of the sun.

Gu Jinzhi didn't invite relatives and friends, but just cooked a bowl of longevity noodles, invited his parents and brothers, and ate it with the children.

Song Paner gave Yan Shao a gift.

One pair of gold locks, two pairs of small gold bracelets.

Gu Yanzhen gave some things for painting red.

Brother Xuan, Xiao Shi, and Xiao Shi gave Yan Shao's playthings.

After eating longevity noodles in the morning, Gu Jinzhi took Yan Ying and Yan Shao into the palace to greet the Queen Mother.

This is the first time in more than half a year that the Queen Mother has seen the children.

The Queen Mother felt that the children grew up quickly.

Yan Ying, in particular, has grown a lot taller.

And Yan Ying, from a toddler in the first month to a clear speech now, has also changed a lot.

The Queen Mother had a light in her eyes, so she asked Yan Shao and Yan Ying to come to her, and looked at it again and again, as if she couldn't see enough.

She also asked Yan Shan.

Gu Jinzhi said truthfully.

The Queen Mother was a little worried, but just asked, "Mr. Lin, is it reliable or not?" ”

Gu Jin once again assured: "Mr. Lin is very reliable......"

Only then did the Queen Mother put her mind at ease.

Yan Shao was a little nostalgic and wanted to hide back.

Yan Ying is very familiar with the Queen Mother.

He said to the Queen Mother: "Imperial Grandmother, I often think about you......"

Even Gu Jinzhi was a little surprised by this.

She didn't teach Yanying what to say.

Yan Ying really misses the Queen Mother. He didn't live long in the palace, and the Queen Mother was very good to him, and he was affectionate in his blood nature. Let Yanying like the Queen Mother very much.

Later, he didn't enter the palace much, but Zhu Zhongjun specially told him, saying that it was inconvenient to enter the palace, and he didn't make trouble.

He misses the Queen Mother, and he was born from the bottom of his heart.

The Queen Mother's eyes were slightly moist and hot.

"Good boy, good boy......" The Queen Mother hugged Yan Ying and said continuously. She didn't doubt the truth of Yan Ying's words at all, but she was very moved.

At the age of the Queen Mother, on her children and grandchildren. Probably undefended, right?

Or. The Queen Mother to Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun as husband and wife. Never fortified......

Gu Jinzhi felt a little guilty in his heart.

She stood there, silent.

The Queen Mother gave Yan Shao a birthday gift and left them to stay in the palace for one night.

Concubine De also brought King Jin to see them.

King Jin is very awkward. I don't look at Yan Ying much, and I'm puffing up.

He was still thinking about the last time.

Yan Ying also ignored King Jin.

Children can also hold grudges.

The Queen Mother smiled.

Concubine De was a little embarrassed.

sat down on the Queen Mother's side, Gu Jinzhi left the child in Renshou Palace, sent Concubine De back to Jinghe Palace, and the sisters chatted along the way.

"The prince has been away from Beijing for a while, right?" Concubine De asked Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi nodded.

Concubine De asked her again what was interesting outside.

"There's not been anything interesting lately. The most talked about in Jingli is still the county lord of Sirou - now he should be called Huimian Shitai. "Gu Jin's way," her matter, the world talked about. I've heard it a lot. ”

"I've heard about it, too." Concubine De whispered to Gu Jindao, "She can have an epiphany of Hongchen, which is also a merit......"

Concubine De didn't go into details.

The sisters understood.

When she arrived at Jinghe Palace, Concubine De suddenly sent out all the people she served, leaving only Gu Jinzhi to speak.

She has private things to say to Gu Jinzhi.

This made Gu Jinzhi a little panicked. She's pregnant now. I'm afraid I don't have the energy to help Concubine De.

Gu Jinzhi thought about it in her heart, and then organized a euphemistic refusal, no matter what Concubine De asked her for.

“…… His Majesty went to the northwest. The prince's meaning, everything in the palace must be as usual, otherwise the world will speculate that the war is unfavorable and people will be panicked. The third princess has turned thirteen years old, and the prince will be in charge of the Ministry of Rites and choose a horse for her. In this matter, you will bring a message to my uncle and aunt, so that they can pay attention to the person to be chosen. The eldest princess is not well married......" Concubine De mentioned these words, worried.

In this era, the law stipulates that the marriage of the princess shall choose the beautiful person among the children of the people as the son-in-law, and the children of the ministers of civil and military affairs are not allowed to marry the princess as their wives. Therefore, the marriage of the princess is called "marriage", which means a gift.

The eldest princess's mother is Concubine Zhang Shu.

The Zhang family had already been exiled to Lingnan because of bad intentions.

The fuse of the matter was the kidnapping of Gu Jinzhi.

Then, Concubine Zhang Shu was imprisoned in the cold palace, and died in less than two years.

The eldest princess was very lively when she was a child, since the Zhang family fell, Concubine Zhang Shu went, the snobbery in the palace treated her more and more as before, and the eldest princess also had low self-esteem and became more and more cautious.

The Queen Mother felt that she was not as dignified and gentle as when she was a child, blindly cowardly, and she didn't like her very much.

Like all princesses, the marriage of the eldest princess was also ordered by the emperor, and the Ministry of Rites and the celebrant jointly chose it.

The laws of this era, even princesses, are often discriminated against.

The eldest princess is married to a family surnamed Jiang, and she is not doing well.

Many things are hidden from the Queen Mother, but people in private know about it.

Except for the Queen Mother and the Emperor, everyone else has heard that the eldest princess is not very good.

The second princess is the daughter of Su Concubine.

Concubine Su's mother's family is considered a meritorious nobleman, and she is more concerned about the marriage of the second princess, so the second princess married well.

Concubine De is very reluctant to marry her daughter.

When it was time for the third prince to choose a son-in-law, Concubine De's heart was raised.

The princess chooses a son-in-law, and the concubine and her mother's family are not allowed to interfere. Therefore, Concubine De did not rashly send a eunuch to spread the word and let the Gu family pay attention to this matter.

She needs someone she trusts to help her.

Gu Jinzhi is one of the people she trusts.
