Chapter 488: Audience
As soon as Mrs. Pengcheng met, she took Mrs. Guo's hand and sighed, "Tell me about you, you won't come to me to sit when you come to the capital." How many of the old sisters are still alive? You still have too strong a temper and too high spirit, and you have to think of a way to return it after drinking someone else's bowl of water. There is a saying, what Sage Kong said, saying that when a person reaches the age of seventy, he can do whatever he wants, how does this sentence come about, I have a bad memory......
As she groaned, a woman dressed as a woman in a pink gown took two steps forward and said, "When you are over seventy, you can do whatever you want." ”
The woman's voice was soft and graceful, and Zhou Shaojin couldn't help but glance at the woman.
The woman was only seventeen or eighteen years old, tall and plump, with a goose egg face, red and phoenix eyes, a straight nose, ruddy and full lips, fair and delicate skin, although the posture was humble, but a pair of eyes were bright, flashing a trace of sharpness from time to time, like a sword hidden in a box, which made people dare not look careless.
Zhou Shaojin was shocked.
In her previous life, she had seen this woman.
At that time, she was already in the prime of life, often wearing strong colors such as red and purple, and when she walked, her posture was straight, her eyes did not squint, and her whole body was magnificent.
Her maiden name is Qiu, and she is quite prestigious in her hometown Taiyuan, and is the wife of the grandson of Pengcheng Bofu, and the daughter of Bo, the former master of Taifu Temple. In the twenty-fourth year of Zhide, Peng Chengbo died, and the prince inherited the title, and she was named the lady of the prince. Within a few months, her mother-in-law died. Her father-in-law doted on a concubine in the family and decided not to marry again. handed over the middle feed of Peng Chengbo's Mansion to her. The next year, her father-in-law died, and the concubine was caught committing adultery, and Peng Chengbofu was afraid that this incident would ruin their family's reputation, so the concubine's front foot was sent to the official office and died violently, and the two sons who gave birth died of illness not long after.
The ladies in Beijing all discussed in private, saying that this was the Qiu family's means, saying that when her father-in-law was alive, the concubine room did not blow the pillow wind, if her father-in-law had not gone early, who might inherit the position of the son of this world!
But the two children born to the concubine were still young. Didn't understand anything. She was too brutal.
Everyone is quite jealous of her and is reluctant to have too much interaction with her.
This rumor was heard by Zhou Shaojin when he entered the palace a few times to congratulate.
Unexpectedly, the first time she met the people of Peng Chengbo's family, she saw this Mrs. Qiu.
These thoughts turned and turned in Zhou Shaojin's heart, and Mrs. Peng Cheng had already laughed loudly: "That's it, that's it!" Or my granddaughter-in-law is smart. In the end, it is someone who has read a book. "Then introduce it to Mrs. Guo." This is my eldest granddaughter-in-law. The surname is Qiu, the autumn of autumn, and her father is from the two lists of Jinshi. Her maiden home Taiyuan is very famous, and her ancestors have been Confucian. She has a brother who is now a lifter! ”
It can be seen that she is proud of the background of Qiu's scholar.
Qiu Shi hurriedly stepped forward to salute Mrs. Guo, and said softly: "This is my grandmother lifting me up, making the old lady smile." ”
Speak and behave very well.
Mrs. Guo's eyes showed appreciation, and she introduced Zhou Shaojin to the people of the Peng family.
Mrs. Peng Cheng looked Zhou Shaojin up and down, and said to Mrs. Guo: "Ah Shen, your daughter-in-law is really beautiful, but this body is too thin, I'm afraid it's not easy to give birth...... However, you scholars like to find such daughters-in-law, and the daughters-in-law of your eldest and second sons are also thin, so there are not many heirs......"
Zhou Shaojin's face was flushed, and he knew that Mrs. Guo's maiden name was "Shen".
Mrs. Guo smiled hehehe, took Zhou Shaojin's hand and patted the back of her hand, the taste of comfort was very strong, and said with a smile: "This is also a personal fate." I can't force it. ”
Mrs. Peng Cheng didn't think so, and what else to say, but the Qiu family was very shrewd, and said with a smile before Mrs. Peng Cheng: "Grandmother, it's not too early, let's hurry up and enter the palace!" Maybe Mrs. Chengenhou has arrived. ”
The current queen is not the emperor's original match.
The emperor's original surname was Xu, and she was the biological mother of the prince. The crown prince died of illness when he was seven years old. The Xu family was enthroned. The current queen Peng was promoted by Concubine Yi, who gave birth to a daughter when she was a concubine and died before she was a year old. She has never given birth to a child since then, which is one of the important reasons why she can become a queen.
Mrs. Peng Cheng was always a little uncomfortable in front of the Xu family, and said, "Did the queen still invite someone from the Chengenhou family?" ”
Qiu reminded Mrs. Peng Cheng: "Tomorrow is the crown prince's birthday. ”
Mrs. Peng Cheng suddenly realized, and her heart was a little weak, and she said, "I, I forgot about this matter for a while. ”
Qiu smiled but did not speak.
Zhou Shaojin kept this day in his heart.
Because Mrs. Guo had told her about the palace before entering the palace, Mrs. Guo was not worried that Zhou Shaojin would say the wrong thing, and the group went to the palace with a smile and a smile.
After all, it was the middle of winter, and the wind blew on the body to the bitter cold, but fortunately, they were all wearing leather cloaks and leather sleeves, which were not very cold, and after walking for a while, they gradually became hot.
Fortunately, everyone has experience, and they are not in a hurry, and when they arrive at the Changchun Palace where the queen lives, their bodies are warm and they will not sweat and have a pickled atmosphere.
The aunt Zhou Shaojin who came to greet them knew that she was a very faceable Aunt Song by the queen's mother's side, and she had seen her from afar when she entered the palace to congratulate her in her previous life. It's just that she knows people, but people don't know her. And at that time, Aunt Song looked solemn, unlike now, smiling, looking kind and amiable, looking at Zhou Shaojin cordially and said to Mrs. Guo: "This is the old man's newly married daughter-in-law, right?" It's so beautiful! You're a blessed old man. ”
"Auntie is lifted!" Mrs. Guo modestly greeted Aunt Song and entered the apse of Changchun Palace.
The queen mother is also in her early fifties this year, with black hair, a round and fair face, a gentle expression, wearing a homely royal blue makeup gown, combing a child, wearing a little emerald hairpin, green grandmother's earrings and mutton fat jade bracelets, and a pair of hands stretched out like a little girl.
She sat alone on the big kang by the window, except for those who served beside her. Didn't see anything else.
After smiling and seeing Zhou Shaojin and Qiu's salute her, she instructed the palace maid to bring them in with a cotton pestle.
Mrs. Guo hurriedly said: "She is young, she doesn't understand anything, and she doesn't dare to be such a mother." ”
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." The queen mother smiled, "She is only two or three years older than the grandson, a flowery person, and she looks so delicate, I like it very much." ”
Zhou Shaojin blushed and thanked him.
The queen liked it even more when she looked at it.
There are many people around her, and Zhou Shaojin's shyness makes people feel close.
Everyone sat down around the big kang near the window.
The queen asked Zhou Shaojin with a smile: "I only heard that you married a daughter-in-law." I didn't expect it to be so small. It's a good birth. ”
"The mother complimented me!" Mrs. Guo smiled respectfully, "The little girl I grew up watching, she was originally the in-law of the fourth room on the other side of Jiuru Lane, and she is still a generation away from our Shilang!" I look so well-behaved. So he called her by his side and helped to copy the scriptures. Do needlework or something. I thought at that time. I don't know who has this blessing to marry. Who would have thought that our family and Jinling were separated, and the child's sister married into the capital, and she came with her stepmother to take care of her sister for confinement. But I just ran into it. I thought that instead of giving the child I had worked so hard to raise to someone else's family as a daughter-in-law, it would be better to stay in our house. That's when I got the idea, and asked Shiro to marry her......"
Zhou Shaojin was stunned.
Mrs. Guo is clearly justifying her name!
This is in front of the queen!
Zhou Shaojin was so weak that he didn't dare to raise his head.
The queen mother smiled and said with great interest: "I heard Mrs. Peng Cheng say that your family Shiro is now in the River Governor's Mansion?" ”
Old Madam Guo nodded and said apologetically: "There was a mistake a few days ago, but fortunately, the emperor was merciful and let him atone for his sins, and my heart finally fell." ”
The queen mother smiled: "What kind of mistake is this? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that if you don't do it well, the more people who do it, the more likely it is to make mistakes. ”
"Thank you for your love, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Queen Mother." Mrs. Guo thanked her.
The queen mother and Mrs. Guo reminisced about the old things: "...... At that time, Mrs. Fengsheng liked it, and often said that you were calm and courageous. That's when I wanted to meet you. Later, Mrs. Fengsheng's brother-in-law spoiled the concubine and killed his wife, and everyone shouted and shouted to kill her, only you, who softly told Mrs. Fengsheng's sister how to deal with the little concubine. I was very impressed at the time...... It's a pity that Master Cheng went early, otherwise you would have been able to enter the palace often to talk to me! ”
Speaking of the deceased Cheng Xun, Mrs. Guo's eyes looked a little moist, and she took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her eyes.
The queen mother changed the topic and talked about Cheng Jing: "...... Now that he is old, it can be regarded as the fulfillment of Lord Cheng's wish. ”
"Who says it isn't!" Old Madam Guo laughed and said, "This child can be regarded as filial piety." I now live in Shiro's house - Shiro is not at home, Zhou and Shiro are newly married, I always have to take care of them, Dalang and his wife have to come to greet me every day, if I don't stop it, this wind and snow, so get up so early to invite me to go to the court again, and you must not freeze people! He's also about to marry a daughter-in-law! ”
Old lady, you can really say it!
How dare you say it!
But in this way, Mrs. Guo will not be afraid of those imperial history bullets if she lives in Chaoyangmen in the future, right?
Zhou Shaojin thought of what Mrs. Guo said about herself just now, and faintly felt that Mrs. Guo's entry into the palace this time was not just as simple as reminiscing.
She admires Mrs. Guo very much!
"That's good!" The queen mother was convinced of Mrs. Guo's words, and talked about the Cheng family: "...... I heard that it was divided, and the money was taken out. What the hell is going on? ”
Old Madam Guo sighed and said, "A slap can't make a sound!" The ancestor of the second room wished that Shiro would help the family take care of the housework, but Shiro was a person who liked to read when he was a child, and his father went early, he wanted to be like his father and brother like the gold list title, and gambled on the tone in the fifteenth year of Zhide to take the Jinshi, how could he help the family take care of the housework, but our family Ding is thin, and I am reluctant to let this child succumb to the family like this, as soon as he gritted his teeth, he separated the sect with the second room! ”
