Chapter 259: The Sorrow of Forgotten
Sima Yan was about to step into the main hall when two red figures swept past her like a gust of wind and rushed straight in.
Sima Yan didn't have to think about it, she knew that it was the fourth princess and the county lord Yue who rushed in before her. In this palace. Which other two people go in and out together, follow each other, like to wear red, and are "bold enough" to go on a rampage?
But what day is it? All of them were in a hurry.
As soon as the question in Sima Yan's heart arose, she heard the excited voice of the county lord Yue: "Imperial grandmother, is it true?" Sister Yao'er is going to be my sister-in-law? ”
The fourth princess also pulled the sleeve of the queen mother: "Imperial grandmother, they said that the father-in-law of Shunzi went to pass on the marriage decree, and in the future, Sister Yao'er and we will be a family." Isn't it, Grandmother? ”
The Queen Mother pointed to the two jubilant little girls and smiled at Mama Liu: "Ah, yes, these two children are better than Ning'er." After speaking, he looked at Lord Yue lovingly, "Yes, Yao'er will be your sister-in-law in the future, the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, do you like it?" "Yue'er is eleven this year, and she always has to go out of Prince Yong's mansion when she gets married in a few years.
Qi Yueling nodded: "I like it, I like it, I like it too much." Grandmother Huang, when will my sister-in-law enter the door? Do I also want to go back to the palace to accompany my sister-in-law? ”
The fourth princess, Qi Sihan, hurriedly muttered: "And me, I also want to go to your palace to play, no, stay for a while, you have to prepare my yard, I want to stay often." ”
Qi Yueling pouted: "How have you ever heard of the princess living outside the palace?" ”
The fourth princess thought about it, isn't it? Quickly changed his words: "Yes, it's better for Sister Yao'er to stay in the palace with you." ”
The Queen Mother Ha Lu Ha Da smiled: "Look, look." Two little ones with no conscience. My sister-in-law hasn't entered the door yet. Leave the imperial grandmother aside. ”
The fourth princess and the county lord of Yue snuggled up to the queen mother one by one, and said in unison: "Where is it?" The Imperial Grandmother is the most important thing in our hearts. ”
The Queen Mother laughed again, she was in a really good mood today, Xiao Yao'er is a little lucky star. Well, plus the two little pistachios in front of her, her knees will be more lively in the future.
The three ancestors and grandsons frolicked happily, not noticing that Sima Yan, who had just entered the temple gate, had a pale face and was shaky. Thanks to the maid next to him, he held it up.
At this time, Sima Yan's mind was blank, and she only kept repeating the words "marriage, Yao'er, sister-in-law", she was still a step late, and the marriage decree had already left the palace, it was too late, it was too late......
Mother Hua sighed secretly, held Sima Yan's shoulder, and reminded softly, "Girl." ”
The girl lost her temper, and what the girl had to do at this time was to come forward and salute the Queen Mother, instead of standing like this. Fortunately, the Queen Mother and several others were happily talking about marriage at this time. I didn't notice them coming in.
Sima Yan woke up, and her heart was even more sad. It was as if I had been left in a forgotten corner.
Desperately holding back the tears that almost burst out of her eyes, Sima Yan sealed her eyes with the cover of her wide sleeves, calmed her mind, and stepped forward to salute.
The Queen Mother only reacted at this time that someone had just reported that Lord Yanjun was here, and she was completely forgotten by the two precious granddaughters, and said with a smile: "Yan'er is here, sit down, it's a big girl, and our Yan'er is becoming more and more beautiful." ”
Sima Yan was deliberately dressed up today, wearing a blue embroidered plum blossom dress, pure and bright, light and soft texture, bright color like flowers, and even more skin like condensation. The clouds are ethereal, and a glazed peony is obliquely inserted through the flowers. The beautiful eyes are circulating, the face is like a hibiscus, and the air is like a quiet orchid, which makes people feel love and pity.
The Queen Mother sighed secretly, there is no outstanding scholar like Xia Shujie and Yu Zhengran in this year's new science and technology scholars, and in her opinion, the best one is the champion of martial arts and her grandson Qi Haoning, but unfortunately Ning Er didn't take a fancy to Sima Yan. Alas, the heavens do not fulfill people's wishes, this child and Ning'er have no fate.
Suddenly, the Queen Mother had a thought: Yan'er has already reached the end of the day, the family affairs have not yet been settled, and the better Yan'er among the new science and technology scholars can't look down on it, and there is really no suitable candidate. It's better to point Yan'er to the second prince, she is a princess and concubine, and she will at least be a princess in the future.
Although the second prince already has side concubines and many concubines, Yan'er is the main concubine when she enters the door, and she has her own support, and the second prince and Ma Guifei dare not treat Yan'er badly.
As for whether Sima Yan has feelings for the second prince, the Queen Mother really doesn't think it's important. She didn't like the emperor before she married him, but secretly admired a young general. When the general rode by, she sat in the sedan chair and saw it through the sedan curtain, and she liked the sassy and heroic posture, but unfortunately the general already had a wife and a half-year-old son.
Later, after marrying the emperor and becoming the princess, didn't he still live a good life? Two years later, the general died in battle, and she was a little glad after a while, if she married the general, wouldn't she be widowed? I don't know if it was because of that special feeling, she gave a lot of concern and help to the general's wife and children, and inadvertently attracted the touching of the soldiers in the army and the support of the emperor. It didn't take long for the emperor to be made the crown prince, and it was greatly attributed to her, which can be regarded as a crooked beating.
The Queen Mother is still a little selfish, she also knows that the second prince of Lu Dao and the Ma family are ready to move, and Sima Yan grew up beside her, and she thinks that she is still very sure of Sima Yan's wisdom and loyalty. If Sima Yan can let the second prince settle down, it can be described as a good thing.
Which grandson is on the throne of the queen mother does not care, that is a matter for the emperor to decide. All she cares about is that no matter which grandson she is, she can't offend the emperor's sons and interests, and she can't disobey the emperor. The queen mother is a typical woman who "follows her father at home, marries her husband, and obeys her son when her husband dies", and considers everything from the interests of the emperor. Therefore, the Queen Mother's maiden family has always been very peaceful, and she has to settle down.
Sima Yan heard the Queen Mother praise her for being "charming and moving", but she was even more sad from her heart, no matter how beautiful she was, the Queen Mother still chose Xia Shuyao as the princess of Prince Yong.
Mother Hua used to be the palace mother in the Queen Mother's palace, and she still knew the Queen Mother very well, and she secretly glimpsed it from pity to contemplation in the Queen Mother's eyes. sensitively guessed that the Queen Mother probably had a conclusion about Sima Yan's marriage in her heart.
Seeing that Sima Yan was still sitting there with dull eyes, Mother Hua was secretly anxious, no matter who she married, if Sima Yan wanted to live well in the future, she still couldn't do without the protection of the Queen Mother.
How could the Queen Mother not know what was going on with her own girl? It must be that Ning Shizi is unwilling. The joy on Ning Shizi's face just now clearly showed that he was extremely satisfied with the relationship with the girl of the Xia family. Since Ning Shizi likes Xia Shuyao, how can his own girl be happy if he reluctantly marries? What's more, now that the wood has been completed, the decree to give marriage has been made.
Now, you can't annoy the Queen Mother anymore!
Mother Hua was ruthless and decided to simply tear apart Sima Yan's injuries, so that she could see the reality clearly, and completely lost her heart.
After making up her mind, Mother Hua asked, "Niangniang, you are so happy, is it Ning Shizi's family affair?" Just now, the old slave saw Ning Shizi leaving in a hurry from a distance, and he couldn't hide his joy on his face. ”
It just so happened that the Queen Mother also intended to let Sima Yan recognize the reality, and replied with a smile: "That kid is naturally proud, and he has long begged to come to the mourning family to marry the Yao'er girl from the Yongping Marquis Mansion, but unfortunately Yao'er was still in the filial piety period at that time and did not return to Beijing." Finally, the girl returned to Beijing, so he was in a hurry, and entered the palace early in the morning to urge the mourning family. ”
Every word of the Queen Mother was like a hammer smashed into Sima Yan's heart, she was infatuated, wanted to attract Qi Haoning's attention, and even wanted to take the initiative to ask the Queen Mother with the cheekiness, but people had already asked the Queen Mother for marriage, but what she asked for was another woman. No wonder I heard that the Queen Mother was working for Ning Shizi Zhang Luo, but suddenly there was no follow-up.
For what? For what? Where is he inferior to Xia Shuyao?
A seemingly unintentional sentence from Lord Yue sprinkled another handful of salt on Sima Yan's wound: "Imperial grandmother, you don't know what to do, brother, he is afraid that Sister Yao'er will not like him, and he is afraid that someone will snatch him first, are you not in a hurry?" When Sister Yao'er hadn't returned to Beijing yet, her brother always went to the Yongping Marquis Mansion to inquire. ”
The Queen Mother nodded at Lord Yue's forehead and said, "This kid, expose your brother's shortcomings, be careful that Ning'er is angry." ”
The lord of Yuejun is worthy of her brother: "Hehe, I'm looking for Sister Yao'er, Sister Yao'er is here, and my brother is reluctant to be angry." Imperial grandmother, can Sihan and I go to the Yongping Marquis Mansion tomorrow to find Sister Yao'er? ”
The Queen Mother smiled and said: "Your sister Yao'er will definitely enter the palace tomorrow to thank you, so you don't have to find an excuse to go out of the palace to run crazy, and you are reluctant to come back every time you leave the palace." ”
As soon as they heard that Shu Yao was going to enter the palace, the two of them were no longer making trouble about leaving the palace, anyway, they stayed in the Yongping Hou Mansion when they left the palace, and every time Shu Yao entered the palace, she would bring Xiao Yao and Huohuo together, which was not much different from them going to the Yongping Hou Mansion.
The Queen Mother glanced at Sima Yan, who was sitting there in silence with a pale face, not that she didn't feel sorry, but there was no way, right? You can't let Sima Yan go to Qi Haoning as a side concubine, right? How can it be said that Sima Yan is also the lord of Yan County, who was personally crowned by the emperor. If she is allowed to be a side concubine, will it not make those soldiers who followed General Sima back then chill? The Queen Mother herself can't bear it.
Let Xia Shuyao be a side concubine? That's even more impossible, not to mention that Shu Yao is also a great hero, and Jin Xida and Xia Shujie are like the sky, they can be described as the emperor's right-hand men. Even Qi Haoning himself would not agree, his love and nervousness for Shu Yao could even be seen by Yue'er and Sihan, two heartless little things.
The Queen Mother decided to summon Duchess Anguo into the palace in the past two days to talk about Sima Yan's family affairs. The female big girl is not staying, and staying here and again is an enmity. Marriage can be delayed by one or two years, but the marriage can not be delayed any longer, and there are not many girls from the family who have not yet decided on their parents. (To be continued......)
