Chapter 247: No Teammates
originally wanted to take Cheng Yiyao to the bed to fall asleep, but when she half picked her up, she found that the tip of her nose and forehead were covered with sweat, untied her clothes, and put her hand on her back, which was also wet with sweat, and shook her head helplessly, this girl still can't take care of herself!
Resignedly, he turned around and went to the bathroom, looking at the steaming bathtub Situ You put Cheng Yiyao on the soft couch aside, even if she moved her somewhere now, she didn't mean to wake up.
At this time, the water in the bathtub was boiling, and the cold water from a few small wooden barrels next to it was poured in and the temperature of the water was tested before getting up, and Cheng Yiyao was carefully hugged over after only untying his coat.
I just wanted to untie her soaked middle clothes, but I saw that Cheng Yiyao had already opened her eyes leisurely: "Qinghe? "Even if you fall asleep soundly when you suddenly enter the water, Cheng Yiyao will wake up.
"Wash up and go to bed early, you're tired today!" Situ You didn't stop the movement in her hand and untied her middle clothes.
"I'll do it myself!" Cheng Yiyao hurriedly put away her half-untied middle clothes, and her face turned crimson.
Situ You looked at his wife's pink face and couldn't help laughing: "Don't catch a cold!" Leaned over and kissed her forehead before turning away.
Until she couldn't hear his footsteps, Cheng Yiyao could still hear the heartbeat of her own touch, she was in a trance when she just woke up, the moment he put his lips on her forehead, she felt that her heart was about to jump out, they were the closest people and had done the most intimate thing between husband and wife, but for some reason she was so moved at this moment.
The moon is sixteen round on the fifteenth, and the habit of the capital is to worship the ancestors during the Mid-Autumn Festival on the fifteenth, but Situ Mansion has always followed the customs of the Weihai ancestors. Fifteen is just a reunion dinner, but the day of worshipping the sky and the moon is on the sixteenth.
On this day, it is natural to worship the ancestors, and the ancestral home of Situ Mansion is in Weihai. Strictly speaking, you should go back to your hometown to worship your ancestors, but the relationship between Situ Fu and the clan has always been awkward, and the distance is far away, so there is no habit of going home to worship your ancestors.
These things are naturally not something that Cheng Yiyao can take over, mainly presided over by the Zhai family, the altar was built early in the morning, and the sacrificial vessels were still immersed in rootless water from the tenth day of the eighth month, and they would not be invited until the full moon rose. The sacrifice began at the middle of the full moon in the evening, because it was not in the ancestral hall, and the ancestors only placed sacrifices in the direction of Weihai.
Today, an altar needs to be built in the house. Dealing with the sacrifices, each room is the second room of the main courtyard that came after dinner in his own house, and the third master did not make any more mistakes today, and did not bring the Zeng family over. just brought Xiao Yinyin over.
Old Madam Situ just glanced at the third old man but didn't say anything more. The altar is divided into two layers, ten meters high, the highest place is the moon platform, and the slightly lower place is the ancestor platform.
Everyone knelt around the altar, the old lady Situ took his eldest son Situ Xuankang to step on the high platform, Situ Xuankang stopped at the ancestors, and the old lady Situ only went to the altar.
First, the old lady Situ led everyone to worship the sky and the moon. After the three kowtows, Situ Xuankang led the Situ Mansion and others to bow to the ancestors. Ask for the blessing of your ancestors
The Mid-Autumn Festival has finally passed, and the banquets in various provinces have begun to increase, and now there are several posts received, even if they are bumped into a lot, which some mansions do not need to be ignored, and which ones still have to go, and they all have to be carefully sorted.
Cheng Yiyao didn't know much about the relationship between Situ Mansion and the various provinces, except for a few that could be eliminated, the rest still had to be decided by the Zhai family.
After returning from Ningshou Courtyard in the morning, he returned to Yilan Courtyard with Zhai's family.
"At present, you still need to read the posts of these companies!" Cheng Yiyao handed a stack of posts to Zhai's hand, and a stack of lists was attached to it.
"Just don't worry about it!" Zhai only glanced at it roughly, and then put the post down.
Situ Xuankang is a doctor of the imperial history, and he is already responsible for supervising hundreds of officials, what the saint needs is a doctor who is only loyal to him, and the privacy of the party is the most important thing.
Situ Mansion has been doing this all these years, what Situ Xuankang wants to do is to be fair, the more important these officials are, the more they have to draw a clear line, and the most taboo thing for the Imperial Doctor is to bring in personal feelings.
Situ Xuankang has never been very popular in the court, but no one dares to provoke him, because he is fair enough, he is only loyal to the saint, so except for catching some trivial things in Situ's mansion, he really can't catch any big handles, as the woman behind him, Zhai has always understood that he can't drag him back.
Even for in-laws like Chengguo Mansion and Jingwang Mansion, Situ Mansion has actually maintained a distance not far away, and Situ Yue also knows it, so he will not often run to his mother's house, in order to avoid suspicion.
Cheng Yiyao is naturally clear about this, just like the old lady of the Marquis of Yongqing Mansion and the Duchess of Guogong came to the mansion to make trouble Situ Xuankang did not stop it, he just wanted to make the outside world feel that his relationship with his in-laws was not necessarily very close.
There are advantages and disadvantages to this, the benefits are obvious, only in this way will not be suspected by the saint, the imperial historian can almost be regarded as the eyes of the saint, if even the eyes deceive themselves, then many things will become passive on the saint, so the imperial historian must be a close confidant of the saint.
Keeping a short distance from the officials of the DPRK can protect himself, but in the same way, he becomes a loner, with only opponents and no teammates.
Over the years, he has not offended one or two, so he will marry King Jingfu, although he still maintains a distance not far away, but the relationship between his in-laws can also make him safer, after all, he is a member of the clan, and he can be regarded as having a certain connection with the royal family.
But he didn't want his son to fall in love with the girl who got into a family, he hadn't begged his son for so many years, he really couldn't refuse, and he couldn't bear to refuse, and at the same time married with the clan and the Chengguo Mansion that held the military power, and the saint needed his statement.
People's hearts will become, the superior is born suspicious, and the wise as today is also a suspicious person, so Situ Xuankang wants to maintain the emperor's trust in him to make a certain sacrifice, he gave up the position of the left prime minister and is willing to serve the saint in the imperial history platform, and continue to walk on thin ice in the position of the imperial historian, which is the best answer he gave, and it is also his means of self-preservation.
"This is an invitation from King Jing's Mansion!" Cheng Yiyao nodded and took out another post and handed it to Zhai, Situ Yue is now the princess of King Jing, I don't know what to do with Zhai's post.
"I'm going!" Although she kept her distance, Zhai didn't really go anywhere, she still wanted to have the entertainment she deserved, and just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, she also missed her daughter and grandson a little. (To be continued......)
