"My miserable Xin'er! I knew that Prince Lu Dao would not succeed like this, even if he killed me, I would not ask her to marry into the East Palace! The eldest lady leaned against the big bed of pear blossom wood, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and complained to Yulan who was sitting on the side.

As the saying goes, if the skin does not have hair, it will be attached, the prince is abolished, and Yuxin, the princess, is also abolished as a concubine. Ye Minshu is now locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department, waiting for the results of the trial of the three law divisions, and it is good to be able to save his life. The concubines of the deposed prince were confined in the Yuqing Palace, and no one was allowed to visit them without the emperor's will.

The eldest lady really regretted it, and her tears kept flowing. The old lady's words against Yuxin marrying into the East Palace are still in her ears, and the eldest lady's intestines are repentant, if she had listened to the old lady's words, how good it would be!

originally thought that his daughter would one day be able to ascend to the throne and glorify the ancestors, but he didn't expect that the glorification of the ancestors did not succeed, but became a prisoner.

The eldest lady is a mother-in-law, and she is very sick. Although a married daughter like Yulan doesn't have to be by her side, it is also necessary to come and visit.

Yulan was not optimistic about this marriage, and it was inevitable that she would have some resentment towards the eldest wife! It's just that seeing the eldest lady crying sadly, she also felt a little embarrassed in her heart, the eldest lady, as a mother, must not have the intention of harming the child, but "I don't kill Boren, Boren died because of me", her decision-making made Yuxin like this.

In the past two days, the matter of the abolished prince has been in an uproar, and Yulan has been in a hurry for several days. Now Yuxin is like a prisoner and is locked up in Yuqing Palace, and Yulan can't get it even if she wants to see her.

At this time, I had to comfort the eldest wife: "Mother, don't blame yourself, no one has this kind of front and back eyes, you were also for the good of the eighth sister." Today's long live Lord Shengming, he is the most forgiving king, thinking that the emperor will read the love of father and son, and he will always be light on the abolished prince, and the eighth sister will definitely see the light of day again. ”

"Lightly haired?" The eldest lady's tears couldn't stop falling: "No matter how lightly he falls, his position as prince will not come back!" Why is Xin'er's life so bitter! ”

Yulan didn't answer, but complained silently in her heart: I knew why I had to do it now!

"The old lady's heart is inevitably too ruthless, Xin'er is her own granddaughter, her life and death are uncertain now, I took my illness to the Songfeng Study House and begged twice, the old lady just refused to see me. With his influence in front of the emperor, as long as he is willing to come out and say a word, the prince and Xin'er will not fall so badly! "The eldest lady is angry in her heart, not only angry that she has no eyes, but also angry that the old lady is selfish and cold, and refuses to take action to pull the prince away.

She said this for a reason. As soon as the crown prince fell, the ministers of the court were afraid of being implicated, and they swarmed to write orthodoxy, exposing the prince's evil deeds one after another, and expressing their distancing with the prince. The emperor issued an edict to reprimand the prince for his misdeeds, and the prince was really a miserable scene where the wall fell down and everyone pushed it.

Yulan also didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the old lady's gourd, but the old lady, as the head of the Yang family, needed to consider the interests of the entire Yang family.

Yulan persuaded again, and the eldest lady finally calmed down. At this time, the maid came over with a medicine bowl, Yulan personally fed her the medicine, and waited for the eldest lady to sleep, and then came out of the inner room where the eldest lady was resting.

The second wife was waiting for her in the flower hall. After the eldest lady fell ill, the second wife took over the middle feed of the Yang Mansion. The second wife is also full of worries, one is prosperous and the other is lost, the Yang family has this kind of thing, and the second wife has no time to look at the jokes of the eldest wife.

"Grandma will go back to her parents' house in the future!" The maids served refreshments, and the second wife got straight to the point.

Yulan could understand the meaning of the second wife's words. The Yang family is now in turmoil, and after the fall of the crown prince, many people have begun to attack the Yang family in order to please the emperor and the soon-to-be-ascended King Zhao. In the past few days, several ministers have written to impeach several officials of the Yang family. Among them, the eldest lord was impeached the most, and the matter of the eldest lord's spoiling concubine and killing his wife was turned out, and it was used as a handle to talk about things.

It was the second wife who said this.

Thanks to the fact that although the official qualities of the Yang family are high enough, they are all idle positions, and it is not so easy to get involved in the prince group. The second wife originally complained about the old lady's refusal to bring her own son, but now she couldn't help but be grateful.

Yulan naturally knows about this matter. Fortunately, the emperor didn't know if Lu Dao was too busy or had other considerations, so these folds fell into the hands of the emperor, and all of them were left behind. But even if this is the case, it is enough for the Yang family to be worried.

Fortunately, the Yang family still has several strong in-laws to support, and the Jin Wangfu is naturally the most important one. Yulan nodded and said, "Second aunt, don't worry, I will come to see you often." "She and the Yang family often come and go, and she can also show the attitude of the Jin Palace, which is very important in this critical period.

The second lady sighed and said, "I don't know what the old lady thinks." No matter what, you should write a self-defense fold and hand it to the emperor! Although he didn't speak resentfully like the eldest lady, he was still a little dissatisfied in the end.

Yulan was reluctant to comment on the elders, so she diverted the topic and asked, "How is my wife's condition?" ”

"We've invited a doctor to see it!" The second wife said: "The doctor said that the sister-in-law is depressed in the five hearts, and her heart is angry. She even coughed up blood yesterday, she is also an elderly person, and she is not less anxious to get angry for a while, and she has the heart to all day long. The imperial doctor said that if the conditioning is not done properly, I am afraid that it will ...... "Although the second wife looks down on the eldest lady and has been separated from her for most of her life, the eldest lady still has some sadness when she sees her like this."

Yulan gasped, she didn't expect the eldest lady to be so sick! She is now in her thirties and less than forty. The eldest lord and the eldest lady have a small quarrel in three days, and a big quarrel in five days, which can be said to be indispensable.

In the Songfeng Study, the eldest master, the second master, the fourth master and the fifth master were all present. The four sons knelt on the ground, and the eldest lord took the lead and said: "Father, now the situation is critical, the prince's four companions have all been executed, and the Yang family, as the Yue family of the abolished prince, will be wiped out in an instant, please hurry up!" ”

The old lady has been standing still these days, reading and compiling books leisurely, not at all like a catastrophe is coming. He looked up at his four sons, and saw that they seemed to be forcing the palace, and said lightly: "The second, fourth, and fifth, you all think the same way?" ”

The second, fourth, and fifth masters nodded one after another. "Father, now is not the time for Taoguang to cultivate obscurity, we heard that the Three Law Divisions have drawn up ten major crimes such as the prince's rebellion, and the prince will be sentenced to death. If the crown prince really dies like this, our Yang family's future is also worrying. Please stand up and tell the prince about it, no matter what you say, you will leave the prince alive. This is not only for the prince, but also for our Yang family. ”

The old lady slowly closed the book in his hand, "Do you think that now if I go to the palace to see the emperor and plead with him, the emperor will pardon the prince?" "The old lady was reluctant to explain more to his sons. Politics is a matter of course, and many times you have to rely on yourself to understand it, and you will definitely not be able to remember what you are told by others. But in the past few days, his four sons have come to lobby him every day, making him more and more disappointed in his sons.

They can't hold their breath at all, and they don't understand the importance of timing. How can they survive in a brutal political environment in the future?

He said lightly: "The emperor is angry, just with the old man's words, can he make the emperor change his mind?" The evidence of the prince's guilt is conclusive, and the laws of heaven and the law of the country cannot tolerate him, what reason can the emperor have to pardon the prince in this situation? Have you thought about any of this? ”

The eldest lord gritted his teeth and said: "Since this is the case, then ask my father to write a letter, expose the prince's guilt, draw a line with the prince, and take out our Yang family!" Or, simply ask the emperor to kill the crown prince quickly to show the innocence of the Yang family! ”

The old lady looked at her eldest son with some surprise: "The prince is your son-in-law!" Even if you don't think about the prince, you have to think about your own daughter! You can say such a thing! The old lady's eyes were full of disappointment: "Your lack of prestige and ability, this is related to talent, but your temperament is so cold, have you read all these books in the stomach of a dog?" He stood up and looked at the eldest master condescendingly, his gaze very sharp.

The eldest man was scolded by the old lady, and although he was not convinced, he still lowered his head. The old lady said coldly: "A few days ago, I was not in the capital, look at the things you did!" I want to bury a side room in the ancestral grave and personally choose a daughter-in-law for my son, I didn't punish you in public, because you are not young and your children are older, leaving you with the most decent behind! You, you even said such a thing! ”

"Have you thought about it, if our Yang family pushes the prince to the court at this juncture, such a wolf-hearted dog, no integrity, no position, who will dare to associate with our Yang family in the future, who will dare to marry our Yang family!"

The eldest lord was dumbfounded by the question.

The second old man said: "Father is angry, and the eldest brother is also desperate, so he will make this decision." The fourth and fifth masters also pleaded with the eldest master.

The old lady is really too lazy to talk nonsense with his sons anymore, they are all people in their thirties, and they can't be taught no matter how much they teach. "You all go down, the boss has stayed in the study for the past two days, think about it, your gains and losses as an official and a person over the years!" This sentence means that the eldest master has been grounded.

The old lady has absolute authority in the Yang family, and although the eldest master is not convinced, he does not dare to object. The second, fourth, and fifth masters were a little disappointed when they saw that they didn't persuade the old lady, but the old lady had just made a fuss. The old man was angry, and they didn't dare to say much, so they all had to retreat.

The old lady sat back in her chair with some weakness. I can help the Yang family get rid of a crisis, but I am already seventy years old, how long can I live, and the Yang family will still rely on a few sons to establish a family in the future, but the ability level and mind of the sons are too poor, too disappointing.

At this time, the housekeeper came in a hurry and handed the old lady a letter: "It was sent by the third young master from Jiangnan!" ”

Chengzong investigated the geography and people's conditions along the way, and in half a year, he had already gone from Beijing to Jiangnan. The old lady realized the problem of the family successor, attached great importance to Chengzong, and frequently wrote letters to Chengzong, answering his questions, and deliberately guiding him to express some opinions on the affairs of the court.

None of the sons came into being, but this grandson unexpectedly pleased him. The old lady opened Chengzong's letter. Chengzong's letter was written very long, first writing about the people's livelihood along the way, the gains and losses of each place, his own thoughts, and then said that he planned to go up the river to Hunan, Hubei, Yunnan, Guizhou and other provinces near Shu Han to take a look at the local military and political and people's conditions.

Shu Han was the most obstacle to the unification of Great Chu. The purpose of Chengzong's actions is self-evident.

The old lady looked at it, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. Although this grandson is young, this magnanimity is much older than that of several sons.

The most Hou Chengzong wrote in the letter that the prince was deposed, and he had also heard about it in Jiangnan, and his opinion was that the prince must not be saved, and if he did not save it, it would make people feel that the Yang family had fallen into the well and had no integrity, so the Yang family would lose the most fundamental thing in Shilin, which would be an unbearable blow to the reputation of the Yang family.

But it can't be saved too early, the emperor is now in a rage, if he shoots too early, it will inevitably hit the emperor's muzzle, and the entire Yang family will be implicated. I discussed the timing of the shot with the old lady again, and every word is a word!

This view coincides with the old lady!

The old lady closed the letter with satisfaction, only to feel refreshed, and all anger was gone. I thought that with this child, the Yang family would not be defeated within at least three generations.

He stood up and shouted to an old servant beside him: "Send me a pot of the best snow mountain clouds and mist that the emperor gave me last time!" "This old servant has followed the old lady for decades, and he knows his temper very well. As soon as the old lady was happy, she wanted to drink good tea.

It's just that now the Yang family is in a tense situation up and down, what makes the old lady so happy?

Yulan went to see the grandmother who was six months pregnant and had already been pregnant, as well as the fifth wife, two little cousins, one was three years old and the other was almost one year old, all of whom looked very cute.

She finished lunch at Yang's house before returning to the palace. In the past few days, because of the abolition of the prince, the government and the opposition have been shaken, although the orthodoxy has not thought about the disaster of Daxing prison, but there are still countless officials who have been implicated, Ye Yichen is in the center, so naturally he can't be idle, and when he comes back from the yamen, he has already handed over the change.

After dinner, Yulan asked Mu's mother to bring her daughter over and coax her daughter to sleep, but she didn't know that she was asleep. When Ye Yichen came back, he saw two faces, one big and one small, lying side by side on the bed, with a calm and peaceful face.

When Ye Yichen saw such a scene, he only felt that all the fatigue of the day had disappeared, and his whole heart was filled with an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

When he came in, he didn't call the maid to report, because he didn't want to alarm Yulan. However, Yulan has been waiting for the prince to come back, and he didn't sleep very deeply, and the prince stopped at the head of the bed for a while, and Yulan woke up.

"You're back!" Because her daughter was sleeping next to her, Yulan lowered her voice, "Have you eaten?" The small kitchen made mutton soup, I asked someone to simmer it for you in the kitchen, it is so cold outside, do you want to eat a bowl to warm up? With that, he personally got up to help Ye Yichen change his clothes.

Ye Yichen said: "I have eaten in the yamen, if you want to eat, just ask them to come up!" ”

Yulan said angrily: "It's only been an hour, where can I have the stomach to eat again?" ”

Ye Yichen laughed and picked up Yulan and turned it upside down, and said with a smile: "If you don't eat more, how can you grow meat?" ”

Yulan was startled and pushed Ye Yichen: "Lord Wang, in front of the child!" ”

Ye Yichen was about to die of laughter: "She is only a few months old, what can she know?" ”

After saying this, he went to see his daughter who was asleep in bed. I was stunned to find that my daughter woke up at some point, she didn't cry or make trouble, but just opened a pair of big black grape-like eyes, looking at her parents very curiously.

Yulan also saw her daughter wake up. Although Zhilu Dao didn't understand anything at such a young age, Yulan still couldn't accept showing affection in front of the child, and always felt a very strong sense of shame. "Put me down."

Ye Yichen can naturally understand her embarrassment, after Yulan gave birth to a child, her skin seems to have become thinner. Ye Yichen let go of her, but mischievously kissed her on the mouth, making a very loud sound.

Yulan's face turned red.

Sister Zhu didn't know how to watch it, probably because she thought it was funny, and she actually laughed out loud. Mother Mu and Mother Zhao, who were guarding outside, heard Sister Zhu'er's voice, took a look at it, and quickly shrank back.

"Lord Wang, look at you, you have taught the children badly!" Yulan is not authentic. Sister Zhu is now five months old, she looks white and chubby, and her little arms and legs are like lotus roots, one by one. The facial features slowly grew, and it was really seven or eight points similar to Yulan, but the nose was very similar to Ye Yichen. The skin is no longer red, and the appearance is so cute that people feel soft when they see it.

I don't know who Lu Dao followed, her energy is surprisingly strong, and her curiosity is also very strong. As soon as she woke up, she fluttered her little hands and feet and kicked her little quilt away. Although it was winter, there was a dragon burning in the house, and the temperature was not cold at all. But when the mother is always afraid that the child will freeze, Yulan immediately left Ye Yichen and ran over to wrap her daughter carefully.

Ye Yichen was not angry, and he tied the buckles on his clothes one by one. Smiled and walked over to look at her daughter with Yulan. The little one's eyes were bony, and he looked at his parents in front of him, and after a while he began to babble.

Ye Yichen had long been used to it, and said with a smile: "She wants someone to hold her!" ”

Yulan naturally knew what to do, hurriedly hugged her daughter in her arms, gently patted her little PP with her hand, and said with some complaints: "It's all your fault!" Woke her up! When she woke up at this time, she had to play until the middle of the night and couldn't sleep! Other people's children sleep for more than ten hours a day, and I don't know why this child is so good at energy, who is this? Yulan only felt exhausted when she saw the child for a while, if it weren't for the help of the wet nurse and the housekeeper mother, she really couldn't hold on.

Ye Yichen sat down at the head of the bed and said proudly: "My daughter, naturally follow me!" I think when I was in the Northwest, I only slept two hours a day and was still full of energy! She's just like me, maybe our daughter can become a female general in the future! ”

"Don't, don't! She is not a boy, she will write and embroider at home in the future, and when she grows up, she will find a down-to-earth and reliable person to marry, and she will have children in the future, and she will live her duty. I don't want her to be some kind of female general, thousands of troops, it's worrying to think about it! ”

Yulan's body is weak, the child is getting older, she can't hold it anymore, and after walking twice, sweat comes out on her forehead. Just as he was thinking about asking Mu's mother and others to come in, Ye Yichen had already preemptively said, "Let's hold it for me!" ”

Ye Yichen walked over, Sister Zhu was already very smart and looked at Ye Yichen with big black eyes, and her mouth made a babbling sound again, and she writhed very dishonestly in Yulan's arms. Ye Yichen's heart melted when he saw it, "See, our daughter wants me to hold it!" ”

Seeing this scene, Yulan was a little jealous, poked her daughter's forehead with her finger and said: "Other people's daughters are closer to their mothers, you are good, you forgot your mother when you see your father!" This little one has no conscience! It took all the hard work to give birth to you! ”

Ye Yichen laughed, he naturally knew why his daughter liked him as a father, he was tall, not only could he lift his daughter high, but also dared to hug her upside down, and he had a lot of fun with his daughter every day, and his daughter was naturally more willing to play with him.

As soon as Ye Yichen took over her daughter, she lifted her high above her head, and Sister Zhu was really happy, her little paws were dancing with her teeth and claws, and she couldn't stop giggling.

To such a fun-loving father and daughter, Yulan had a headache and said in fear: "Lord Wang, be careful, be careful!" ”
