Chapter 693: Arrival (No. 4 Nine Watches Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"What does the princess say? This is just a little bit of our imperial concubine's heart. What is the relationship between our imperial concubine and Her Royal Highness the princess? Where is the need for reactive power? The palace maid was very good at talking, and lowered her figure, wanting to save her sleeves' impression of Emperor Wan's concubine.

Yingsleeve didn't embarrass her, looked at the send-off Guanyin, and said with a smile: "Then let's put it down first." Is this thing recorded in the palace? ”

The things rewarded in the palace must be recorded, otherwise they can be caught as thieves.

The palace maid trembled, and secretly said that it was broken, this thing was considered the private property of the imperial concubine, and there was no record......

At a glance, he knew there was a problem.

She sat down, hugged the stove and sighed, "...... Isn't there a record? That's not possible, our uncle is the prime minister, if someone catches the head, saying that I and Emperor Wan's concubine should be in harmony with the outside world, and go out of the palace, do we still want to be a man? Do you want to be a big prime minister? This hand of Emperor Wan Guifei is really a double win......"

The palace maid closed her eyes, knowing that today's errand was a mess, not only did she not make peace with the princess of the country, but added new grievances, what can she do in the future?

Seeing that the palace maid stopped talking, Yingsleeve sighed, stood up with her hands on the stove, and ordered: "Just send it back first, otherwise it will be difficult to talk in the palace in the future." So saying, he took the maid's hand and went out.

The palace maid couldn't do anything, so she went back to the palace with a gift box in despair.

Back in the palace, when Emperor Wan heard Yuan You, she was also angry in her heart, and pointed at the palace maid and reprimanded: "You are really a pig's head!" Can't you say it's not something from the palace? It was sent directly from the mother's family of the main palace, isn't it? ”

The palace maid sighed. Holding his head and kneeling, he secretly scolded the things that were carried out of the palace. Of course it's from the palace, can you open your mouth and say no? When they left the palace, they were registered at the gate of the palace, otherwise how could there be rules in this palace?

Of course, there are not particularly rules in the palace now......

……

In the evening, Xie Dongli returned to the inner courtyard and listened to Yingsleeve say that Emperor Wan and the concubine had specially shown goodwill. said lightly: "I'm in a hurry now, why did I go earlier?" ”

"What's wrong?" Ying Sleeve felt that this matter was a bit strange, with the current status of the imperial concubine. You don't need to please her......

Xie Dongli took her hand, went around the courtyard, and said with a smile: "Isn't her father going to be made an earl?" It was rejected by me in the name of the Prime Minister's Court. ”

Ying Sleeve understood, pursed her lips and smiled: "Emperor Wan, this kid understands that she can't get rid of us yet?" This man is really. Always thinking about crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. This mountain looks at that mountain high, which is not good. ”

"Well, but it's not surprising that human nature will always have to look forward to Shu, so you must always be vigilant." Xie Dongli stopped and looked at the gate of the courtyard, "Are they all gone?" ”

"Well, after your outer courtyard is dispersed. And they were gone. Ying Sleeve leaned on Xie Dongli and watched the sunset on the horizon. muttered: "My eldest cousin-in-law is coming to the capital again, and my heart is pounding again." I don't know what she'll do again this time. ”

"What can she do? I'm not going to let her come to the door. Xie Dongli comforted Yingsleeves, "I have said everything that should be said, and I have reminded what should be reminded, if I still hold on, I can't do anything." ”

The two chatted for a while, then turned the conversation elsewhere.

Yingsleeve said: "My mother sent me a table of noodles today, and asked me to go to her house to sit on the fifth day of the new year." ”

"I'm fine on the fifth day of junior high school, let's go see your mother and your little brother." Xie Dongli put a big hood on Yingsleeve, and the white fox fur of the hood came out, reflecting Yingsleeve's small face as clear as crystal.

"And the Shen family, my eldest aunt picked me up in the third year of junior high school and went to her house, can you go?"

"I happen to have something to do in the third year of junior high school, and I want to go to the Prime Minister's Pavilion, but I can go to dinner and then pick you up and go home with you." Xie Dongli grabbed Yingsleeve's shoulders and turned back from the gate of the courtyard.

The two went into the house together for dinner and didn't talk about it.

……

Lu Ruilan and Liu Dongyi took three carts, as well as Sheng Liuli and A Yan's mother and daughter, who went out on the second day of the first lunar month and rushed to the capital.

There were still no big boats at the ferry, so they chose to take a long detour.

By the time we crossed the bridge, it was already the afternoon of the next day.

Sheng Liuli smacked her tongue and said, "It's really far away, fortunately I didn't take Ah Yan all the way that day." ”

"That is, when I saw you walking barefoot all the way that day, I knew that you both had to bury yourself in the snow halfway through." Liu Dongyi lifted the curtain and looked out, "Look, the snow hasn't melted yet." ”

"It's really cold this winter, I didn't expect it to be so cold in the south." Lu Ruilan was wrapped in a black fox fur, holding a hand stove in her hand, and glanced at Sheng Liuli and Ah Yan.

The mother and daughter were only wearing sheepskin jackets, but they didn't look cold at all.

The chilblains on Sheng Liuli's hands and feet before are now like decorations.

In the end, he was born poor, and his body looks much stronger than his sleeves......

Lu Ruilan turned her head, looked Sheng Liuli up and down, and couldn't help but ask again: "Where is your father and mother from, do you really remember?" ”

Sheng Liuli lowered his eyes and said: "I only remember when I was five years old, my father and mother passed away, and since then I have lived alone, there are many things to eat in the mountains, and I can catch hares with a few traps." When it snows in winter, pheasants stick their heads in the snowdrifts, revealing their big fat buttocks, as well as all kinds of mushrooms, wild vegetables and bamboo shoots, and there are many things to eat! My mom and dad left me a big vat full of salt, and I still haven't finished it. ”

"How old are you?" Lu Ruilan couldn't help but ask.

Sheng Liuli blushed, bowed his head and said, "Twenty-two......"

Lu Ruilan glanced at Liu Dongyi, Sheng Liuli's age was about the same as Yingshou.

Listening to what she said, it shouldn't have anything to do with Yingsleeve.

But how can two people who have nothing to do with each other be so similar?

Lu Ruilan thought to herself, and also taught Sheng Liuli a face-to-face lesson along the way: "...... When you arrive in the capital, live with us first, don't tell anyone who your man is, wait for me to plan slowly, and always wait for a great opportunity to let you recognize your relatives smoothly. ”

Sheng Liuli nodded involuntarily, but immediately shook her head again, and said, "Sister-in-law Liu, in fact, I just need Ah Yan to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, I don't need it, I can go back to the mountains......"

"How can you go back to the mountains alone? Are you going to throw such a young child away? She is only two years old and doesn't understand anything, so you can rest assured that someone else will raise a child for you? Lu Ruilan patted Sheng Liuli's shoulder, "Let me tell you, there is a lot of filth in the mansion gate, but it is not like you mountain people, who have pure minds, one is one, two is two." Maybe when you come to see the child in two years, you will find that her spiritual seat has been placed in the ancestral hall. ”

"Huh? How so?! Sheng Liuli looked frightened and uncertain, covered her mouth and cried, she hugged Ah Yan tightly, "No, my Ah Yan can't die......

"So, you have to stay, bring up Ah Yan by yourself, watch her get married, marry a good son-in-law, and have a bunch of sons, so that you can live a harmonious and beautiful life." Lu Ruilan spoke earnestly and authentically, and was very concerned about Sheng Liuli.

Although Liu Dongyi thinks that Yingsleeve may not be that kind of person, but he is not his mother, how much can a mother-in-law care about this child?

To put it bluntly, this child is not even as good as a concubine, she is an illegitimate maid.

So Liu Dongyi did not refute Lu Ruilan's words.

Sheng Liuli lowered her head, thoughtful all the way, and never spoke again, but the closer she got to the capital, her expression became more and more uneasy.

Lu Ruilan saw it in her eyes, and on the afternoon of the fourth day of the first lunar month, when the city gate of the capital was in sight, Lu Ruilan asked her with a smile: "Big sister, you tell me honestly, don't you have any love for my cousin?" ”

Lu Ruilan didn't believe it, with Xie Dongli's character and net worth, Sheng Liuli, a girl in the mountains, was not tempted at all!

At this time, Liu Dongyi was no longer in the carriage, he rode into the city in advance, and went to arrange accommodation first.

Lu Ruilan originally planned to live alone in her daughter's house, and Liu Dongyi wanted to follow Xie Dongli to ask for errands, so he lived alone in one of their houses in the city.

But now that there is Sheng Liuli, this plan will be put on hold for the time being.

Lu Ruilan plans to take Sheng Liuli's mother and daughter to live in her own house, and will not let anyone know about it for the time being.

In fact, what she is most guarded against is none other than Xie Dongli himself.

How ruthless this cousin's heart is and how powerful his methods are, no one else needs to say more.

Lu Ruilan knows better than anyone else.

In order to smoothly push Sheng Liuli's mother and daughter out in front of the family families in the capital of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom, and not let Xie Dongli have any room to turn around, Lu Ruilan was really heartbroken.

However, in Sheng Liuli's eyes, he was even more grateful to Lu Ruilan.

When she was at the gate of the city, Lu Ruilan saw that the person who came to pick them up was sent by her eldest daughter Xie Tongxin, who originally said that she wanted to take Lu Ruilan to her house.

Lu Ruilan smiled at the man and said: "There is something temporary, I won't go to our aunt's house for the time being, you go back first, and say that I will go to the house tomorrow." ”

The subordinate hurriedly said, "When will my mother-in-law go tomorrow?" Our young grandmother will not be home tomorrow. ”

"Where is she going? When will you be back? Lu Ruilan asked casually.

The next person said: "Ming'er is a guest at the Shen family's banquet, and my aunt and grandmother finally got a post, and I want to take Miss with me." ”

"The Shen family?" Lu Ruilan's eyes flickered, "Which Shen family?" Is it the Shen family that used to be Prime Minister Shen? ”

"Exactly."

“…… How many people did the Shen family invite? ”

"The people on the board are invited, so everyone is going." The man hurriedly said, "It may be dark before I go home." Mother, look at ......"

"So?" Lu Ruilan secretly said that this opportunity is really good, and she will definitely be able to catch them off guard, so she smiled and said: "I have been with the eldest lady of the Shen family since childhood, since this is the case, I will go directly to the Shen family to see the eldest aunt and grandmother tomorrow." ”

Lu Ruilan took Sheng Liuli's mother and daughter into the city, and first went to live in a small mansion in Dongchengfang District.
