Chapter 782: Extras (6)
Ji Xingxuan was sent directly to the dungeon of Zongzheng Division by the black-clothed guard, and the child was hugged back by Yu Shu. 《
Zhu Muzhao told her that the only way to identify the Heavenly Mandate Tai Bone was to use the yellow spring water in the secret cave of the imperial tomb in the eastern suburbs, and on the ninth day of the fifth month, the altar was opened to worship the ancestors, and the whole skeleton was soaked in the yellow spring water.
Hearing this, Yu Shu looked down at the swaddling clothes in his arms, the little guy had just woken up, looking at her curiously with a pair of big eyes like crystal beads, his fleshy face was bulging, spitting bubbles stupidly, and he was not afraid of life at all.
"When will the bones be taken?" She asked.
"Anytime." Zhu Muzhao's eyes were slightly cold when he looked at the child, "There are many dreams at night, it is best to take the bones as much as possible, and wait until next year's ancestor worship ceremony, and then you will make identification, if it is available, you don't have to worry too much about giving birth to the destiny of heaven." ”
Yu Shu was silent for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Since the authenticity can only be verified in May next year, it is better for me to take the bones later." This child is innocent, let him live a few more months. ”
Zhu Muzhao couldn't see her soft-heartedness, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to do it then." ”
Yu Shu sneered: "Why can't you do it, I'm not a bodhisattva, regardless of the fact that I and Na Ji Xingxuan are mortal enemies, if I don't kill this child, will it be possible that I will peel off my own child in the future?" ”
Zhu Muzhao stared into her eyes, confirming that she was not bluffing.
Yu Shu's eyes did not dodge, and his face was slightly gloomy: "If you don't believe me, Taishu will dispose of this child as you like." With that, he walked over to the side of the recliner. Putting down the swaddling clothes casually, the little guy whined twice, stretched out two little hands to her, and when she saw that she ignored him, she cried, but she didn't even look at him superfluously, so she bowed to Zhu Muzhao and said goodbye.
"Slow," Zhu Muzhao stopped Yu Shu, who was walking to the door, and said, "It's not that I don't believe you, just in case." That's it. You have a bad relationship with this child. If you're willing to intercede for him, let him live a few more days. ”
He didn't want Yu Shu to think that she was just a puppet in his hands and provoked her rebellion. Moreover, he does not need an heir who is obedient. The stronger she is. The more relieved he was.
Yu Shu stood still. He touched the inconspicuous ring on his left index finger. Turning around, his face was slightly pale. She walked back and picked up the child again, burping despite his crying. In a soothing tone, he said, "Si Tianjian thought that there was no place for the child, so I took him away." ”
Zhu Muzhao didn't stop her this time, waved his hand and went with her. Listening to the child's cry fading away, he closed his eyes wearily, and as the day of the enthronement drew nearer, he was well aware of his weakness, which was not due to physical aging, but to mental weakness, and he could have a premonition that his time was numbered.
The great mention of the past dynasties is that since the possession of the "Xuannu Liuren Book", there are few long-lived people, often the new emperor ascends the throne, and dies less than a year after leaving office, some die violently, some recover from old diseases, and some die unconsciously in their sleep.
This is an unsolvable puzzle, and Zhu Muzhao has always regarded it as a curse from Empress Ning Zhen, cursing them as the inheritors who violated her last words, conceived the Heavenly Mandate Bone without authorization, and abused the Book of Xuannu Liuren.
There is only one tablet in the mourning hall on the top floor of Taixi Tower that is not engraved, and that is actually the spiritual seat of Empress Ning Zhen. They revered this woman who had single-handedly established the Si Tianjian, and the blank tablet represented their awe.
***
Yu Shu came home with the child, and when he entered the door, he asked people to go to Zhao Hui to borrow the nurse, He Xiaochuan is more than a year old, and he can eat some rice paste, plus Zhao Hui is more willing to feed it himself, and the nurse has mostly become a decoration, which just saves Yu Shu trouble.
The maids in the North Carriage were so shocked that their jaws dropped when they saw Yu Shu coming back with a white and chubby little doll. The child was probably hungry, a pair of small hands tightly grabbed Yu Shu's neckline, and arched to her chest vigorously, humming and chirping, Xin'er and Lin'er watched in horror as Yu Shu stared at the little doll with frowning eyebrows, for fear that she would throw the child out if she was impatient.
"Girl, let the slave and maid hold it, you go first to wipe your sweat and change your clothes." Kidney Bean couldn't stand it anymore and reached out.
Yu Shu hesitated for a moment, and was about to hand over the child to Kidney Bean, who knew that the little guy recognized her, kicked his legs hard, and actually stood up from her arms, two lotus-like little arms tightly wrapped around her neck, and muttered "poof, poof" in his mouth and refused to come down. A milky scent rushed into her nose, she blinked, and laughed out loud, this smile, her face seemed to melt away, and even the flame in the center of her eyebrows softened a little.
Such an innocent child who does not distinguish between good and evil, how could she bear to strangle him? She has a sentence that deceived the big mention, she is indeed not a bodhisattva, but she never does anything against her conscience.
"That's it, I'll hold it." Yu Shu held his little ass and checked it.
So Zhao Hui heard the news and brought He Xiaochuan's nurse over, and when she entered the door, she saw a fat doll sitting on Yu Shu's lap, and she was holding a small spoon in her hand to feed him water.
"Oh, whose little baby is this? I'll take a look," Zhao Hui leaned up, stretched out his finger and gently rubbed the child's little face, seeing that he was hungry, and hurriedly asked the nurse to come forward to pick it up, probably because the nurse had a smell of milk, the little guy didn't hold on to Yu Shu this time, turned his head and threw himself into the nurse's arms.
"Picked it up." Yu Shu put down the small spoon, wiped the saliva on his collar in disgust, and said nonsense: "On the way back, I saw a big basket on the side of the street, and when I heard the child crying fiercely, I picked him up and went home." ”
Where would Zhao Hui believe her nonsense, glared at her, turned to look at the child in the nurse's arms, about ** months, he is a boy with a handle, white and tender and very cute, but seeing that he was wrapped in a small quilt with thin and soft silk, and the small clothes he wore were meticulously needlework, he knew that it could not be an abandoned baby. But if it's not an abandoned baby, who has a child so old who can rest assured that someone else will take care of it?
Zhao Hui stared at Yu Shu suspiciously: "You tell me the truth, where did this kid come from?" ”
Yu Shu stood up and stomped on his numb legs and feet, sighed and told her: "This child's father is dead, his mother has run away, no one wants him, so I brought the person back." ”
"God is pitiful," Zhao Hui suddenly overflowed with maternal love, and no longer doubted her statement, while helping the nurse pat the child on the back, she asked Yu Shu: "What's your name?" ”
Yu Shu tilted his head and thought for a while, "Let's call Yang Guo." ”
"Child, his father's surname is Yang?" Zhao Hui looked at her suspiciously.
"No."
Zhao Hui scolded her with a smile: "Then what name do you give to others, is this a joke?" ”
Yu Shu snorted lightly, got up and went to the house to change clothes, and willfully dropped a sentence: "Anyway, I picked up his little life, I can call it whatever I like, not Yang Guo, just call me Yu Guo with my surname." ”
Zhao Hui stared at the maid in the same room, and Xiao Yu was lying on the nurse's chest with a milk burp, not knowing that she was going to change her name and surname from now on
In the evening, He Fangzhi and Yu Xiaoxiu came back from the hospital, and as soon as they entered the door, they heard that Yu Shu had raised a little doll under the age of one.
"You said that she is an unmarried girl's family, how can she raise a child, just raise it, she has to have her surname, but she has to be raised as a son, is it possible that she is not ready to marry in the future?"
He Fangzhi can see better than her, "Just let her be happy, if you can't get married, you won't marry." Don't talk in her ear all day long, it's not that you don't know how much she has suffered. There are some things I said, don't you don't like to listen to it, she is so big now, how can ordinary men be worthy of her. Looking further up, it is the house of the prince and the prince, but how can such a family tolerate her. ”
Zhao Hui felt sorry for Yu Shu no less than him, and after he said a few words, he softened his heart, rather than marrying or not, naturally it was more important whether Yu Shu was doing well or not.
"But she can't live a lifetime alone, Xiao Xiu will also marry a wife and have children in the future, and when the two of us are old, she doesn't even have a companion, so how can she do it."
"Don't worry, wait and see, maybe fate hasn't arrived, just like the two of us, didn't we also meet after a lifetime of delay?" He Fangzhi took Zhao Hui's hand, wrapped it around her shoulder, and felt that:
"If fate comes, it's never too late."
The husband and wife sat worried, but Yu Xiaoxiu was smirking, not for anything else, Yu Shu told him that he wanted to accept Xiao Yu Guo as an adopted son, so Yu Xiaoxiu was promoted to be an uncle in advance, and their righteous brother He Xiaochuan is different, this is a generation behind.
"Sister, can I really be his uncle?" Yu Xiaoxiu knelt on the Luohan couch, stretched out his hand to protect Xiao Yu Guo who was crawling around, and his eyes were bright and bright.
Yu Shu slipped Xiao Yu Guo up with a long hand, let him sit on her lap, and pointed at Yu Xiaoxiu and said, "Call uncle." ”
Xiao Yu Guo didn't know if he understood, grinned at Yu Xiaoxiu and smirked, revealing a few snow-white baby teeth, and slurred his speech: "Chirp." ”
Yu Xiaoxiu immediately smiled, stretched out his hand to hug Xiao Yu Guo, and lifted him high, "I'm an uncle, hahaha!" ”
"Chirp!" Xiao Yuguo waved his small fist cooperatively.
A few maids in the room covered their mouths and snickered, and Yu Shu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. After a lively night, when it was time to sleep, Yu Xiaoxiu reluctantly left.
Soon after Yu Xiaoxiu left, Xiao Yu Guo yawned and fell asleep on Yu Shu's lap, so she called the nurse to take him to sleep. There are still two vacant rooms in the North Chamber, and before dinner, Yu Shu asked people to clean it up as a baby room, and asked He Xiaochuan's nurse Song's mother to come over, and temporarily let her take the child for two days, and then let her go back when Yu Shu found a suitable nurse.
That night, Yu Shu had a lingering milky fragrance on his body and surprisingly slept well. (To be continued!)
