Chapter 247: The House

Such an incident on Chinese New Year's Eve made the entire palace panic, but the emperor immediately issued an order - not to disclose it to the public.

It's not a glorious thing after all.

The crowd immediately kept silent.

Empress Kuang was accompanied by the three princes and returned to Kunning Palace.

The two didn't speak all the way, but they both knew that after this incident, the mother-son relationship between the two deepened.

The third prince didn't tell her and the emperor about Shi Guifei having a date with Yan Shichong, and he felt that this was not the right time to talk about it.

"Rui'er, it's late at night, go back and rest." When she arrived at the door, Empress Kuang said to him.

"Well, Erchen will come back tomorrow morning to greet you." The third prince said goodbye to her.

After the three princes left, Queen Kuang said to the palace maid, "Let's go see the ten princes." ”

So the group went to Zhu Changding's residence.

Zhu Changding kept crying all night, no matter who coaxed him, he couldn't coax him.

The palace maids were so anxious that they didn't know what to do, and Empress Kuang walked in.

"Does he know about it?" Empress Kuang whispered to the palace maid who served him.

"Not really." The palace maid hurriedly said.

"Mother and son are connected." Empress Kuang looked at him and sighed lightly.

He cried even harder as she approached him.

"Well, how can you grow up if you don't sleep?" Empress Kuang gently stroked his head and said.

"I want my mother, I want my mother, go and call ...... She comes. Zhu Changding cried and said, looking at Queen Kuang's eyes with both fear and expectation.

The eyes of the room were red.

Empress Kuang hurriedly wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, smiled at him and said, "Your mother is asleep." I have to wait until she wakes up tomorrow before she can come, good boy, will I sleep with you tonight? ”

"Don't, don't, I want my mother." Zhu Changding kicked Queen Kuang with his hands and feet.

Empress Kuang comforted him over and over again, and only after his mood was stable did she stand up gently.

"I'll sleep here tonight, make my bed." Empress Kuang said to the palace maids.

The palace ladies hurriedly complied.

So Queen Kuang slept here that night.

In the middle of the night, Zhu Changding woke up several times, and every time he cried very much, Queen Kuang simply lay down beside him and sang lullabies to him.

As a result, he finally quieted down in the second half of the night.

Next. Empress Kuang personally took care of Concubine Shi's funeral.

A day later. Shi Guifei was buried.

Later, Empress Kuang came to see the emperor and asked the emperor for permission to take care of Zhu Changding's diet and daily life.

The emperor readily agreed.

"Queen, I'm ashamed of you!" The emperor put his hand on her shoulder and said.

In the past few years, he has been with Shi Guifei most of the time, but he didn't expect her to not only don't mind. is also willing to raise Shi Guifei's children.

Empress Kuang smiled and said, "The emperor's words are too foreign. The concubine used to be with you in your best years. This happiness is not comparable to others. ”

The emperor smiled and hugged her.

"What do you think about the death of Concubine Shi?" The emperor asked again.

"The concubine doesn't have any opinions." She said respectfully.

This reserved answer made the emperor awe her.

"You've always been so submissive." The emperor said with a smile.

Empress Kuang laughed.

"It was right to choose you as the queen, because of you, the harem has been so peaceful for more than ten years. Of course, this is the most recent one, but it's not your fault. The emperor said again.

Empress Kuang smiled but did not say a word.

Although the people in the palace were very dense, Yan Jinxuan's people still cleverly learned about Shi Guifei's death.

When they informed Yan Jinxuan about this, the latter was practicing calligraphy in his study.

It seems that Shanyun is right, but the outcome of the matter has changed under the effect of artificiality, so can the catastrophe of the Yan family three years later be reversed by artificiality?

Yan Jinxuan thought in his heart.

But he was confident.

"Second child, did Shanyun say when he will return to Beijing?" Mrs. Lu asked.

As soon as the Spring Festival passed, she couldn't wait for her to come.

In fact, it's not just her, Yan Jinxuan is also eagerly looking forward to it.

"She said that she would come after the year, and it shouldn't be more than the twentieth day of the first month at the latest." Yan Jinxuan said with a smile.

"Mm-hmm, then I'll make a batch of snacks she likes to eat in a few days." Mrs. Lu said with a smile.

Zhang Hanlin, who happened to pass by the door, suddenly lowered her face.

Since she learned that Yan Yunpei and Mrs. Lu had privately taken out 20,000 taels of silver to Yan Jinxuan to buy a new house, she became more and more dissatisfied with Yan Jinxuan and Su Shanyun.

That was months ago.

At that time, Yan Jinxuan told everyone that he wanted to buy a house nearby.

Yan Yunpei and Mrs. Lu's reaction after hearing this was a little surprised.

"I have such a big house at home, why do I want to buy it again?" Yan Yunpei asked.

"It's just a sight, and the recent housing prices have not risen, so I want to buy one quickly." Yan Jinxuan explained with a smile.

He didn't say that it was because he didn't want Su Shanyun to be angry with Zhang Hanlin in the future.

He had saved up a fortune over the years, so buying a house like this was completely stress-free for him.

When the family saw that he liked it, they didn't say anything.

So the next day he went to go through the purchase procedures.

When he got home, Yan Yunpei came back from the office, and Yan Yunpei and Mrs. Lu asked him to talk inside.

Yan Yunpei took out a bag from the cabinet and said solemnly to Yan Jinxuan: "That's the case, we know that you need to spend a lot of money to buy this house, so we want to give you 20,000 taels, which can be regarded as a little caution." Yan Yunpei said.

"It's not that I don't have enough money to buy it, so where do I need to spend your money?" Yan Jinxuan hurriedly said.

"I know you don't lack this money, but I'm very happy that you can marry such a good girl as Shanyun, so it's a gift from us." Mrs. Lu said with a smile.

"Second, for the time being, my annual income is higher than yours, and I don't have much to spend now, but you have to spend a sum when you get married, and maybe you will have children in less than a year, and then you will have to spend more money inside and out, take it, otherwise it will be too much to see." Yan Yunpei said.

"Then thank you mother and daddy." Yan Jinxuan had no choice but to take it.

However, one of Zhang's maids knew about this, and she quietly informed Zhang. When Zhang heard this, he was immediately angry.

"When I first married you, I never saw them give money, but now that Second Master Yan is married, he generously takes out 20,000 taels, they are really partial!" It was night, and Zhang couldn't help but complain to Yan Jinhao.

"At that time, we didn't have a house, so I had plenty of money, so naturally they didn't have to give it." Yan Jinhao hurriedly comforted.

"Doesn't the second master have enough money? He earns almost a third more than yours. Zhang Hanlin asked unconvinced.

"After buying this big house, he shouldn't have too much money." Yan Jinhao said.

"I don't care, anyway, it's not right for my parents-in-law to do this." Zhang Hanlin said angrily.

"And what do you want?"

"Let's buy a new house, right? We'll be more comfortable that way. ”

Yan Jinhao suddenly half-sat up and said, "It's easy to say, have you considered my burden?" Besides, the home is so spacious and everyone gets along well, so why bother. ”

"Speaking of which, you're still reluctant to spend this money." Zhang Hanlin glared at him angrily.

"I don't think it's necessary yet, let's wait a few years for the children to be older." Yan Jinhao said.

He didn't have much requirements for life, and he thought it was good for the family to live together in harmony like this. (To be continued......)
