Chapter 191
Fu Yuchen had already woken up, but he was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and hurt Xu Cancan, so he deliberately closed his eyes to prevent Xu Cancan from finding out that he had woken up.
Xu Cancan thought that he was not awake, so he quietly stepped back, put his head on Fu Yuchen's chest, and soon fell asleep again.
Fu Yuchen closed his eyes and hugged Xu Cancan's pouting buttocks, stroked it for a while, and fell asleep not long after.
Fu Yuchen got up early the next morning, and Xu Cancan was still sleeping.
Fu Yuchen sat there and looked at the sleeping Xu Cancan, feeling how to like it, how cute it was to look at it.
He quietly lifted the thin quilt, looked at Xu Cancan's still flat lower abdomen, and thought that his child was pregnant inside, his nose was sour, and his phoenix eyes were moist.
He lightly lifted the placket of Xu Cancan's middle coat, leaned over and kissed Xu Cancan's snow-white and soft lower abdomen lightly, and then got up and left.
Xu Cancan didn't get up until he woke up naturally.
Zhu Yan followed her instructions, brought a cup of warm boiled water mixed with Qinling acacia nectar, sat on the edge of the bed and fed her a sip of it.
Zhu Yan reported on the side: "Princess, the old lady and the eldest lady of the foreign family are here, and Mama Dong ordered someone to be placed in Fushou Yuan. ”
Xu Cancan hadn't woken up yet, and said, "I know the way." "Aunt Xu Han is reasonable, she is willing to see it, but Mrs. Xu really doesn't want to see it! Anyway, this time Mrs. Xu is annoying again, she has Mrs. Xu's method!
When Xuan Bing and Suzaku took the little maid to wait for Xu Cancan to wash, Biyun and Zhu Yan chose today's clothes and jewelry for Xu Cancan.
They knew that the princess had to dress up beautifully at all times, and although she was pregnant, she was afraid that she would be beautiful, so they still chose jewelry and dresses for her very seriously
Because she was pregnant, Xu Cancan didn't dare to apply grease and powder, so she only asked Zhu Yan to apply some white pear jade cream on her face, swept her eyebrows lightly, and lightly applied a layer of peach blossom balm on her lips.
After taking a closer look at the princess, Zhu Yan began to comb Xu Cancan's hair.
She combed Xu Cancan's Suiyun bun today, only obliquely took a gold silk inlaid red treasure peony hairpin, and chose a pair of red gold inlaid red treasure peony-shaped earrings to wear.
Biyun took the dress that had been chosen, and asked Xu Cancan to choose.
Xu Cancan looked at them all, and finally chose a pale pink narrow-sleeved shirt embroidered with peach blossoms and a pear print long skirt.
Looking at the breakfast in front of him and smelling the smell of sesame oil, Xu Cancan felt that he couldn't eat a single bite and began to retch.
But for the sake of the fetus in her womb, she reluctantly used a steamed bun and a bowl of millet porridge in the end.
After rinsing his mouth, Xu Cancan began to deal with housework.
She ordered someone to call Mama Chen in, and instructed Mama Chen to send the prince's share to the front study as long as the prince had dinner in the mansion in the future. She eats a vegetarian diet, and she can't let Fu Yuchen follow her to eat vegetarian together!
Mama Chen hurriedly replied "yes".
After dealing with all the housework, Xu Cancan relaxed a little, leaned on the brocade couch easily, and told Suzaku to go to Fushouyuan to invite the old lady and the eldest lady of the foreign family to come over.
Knowing that her beloved eldest son was impeached and demoted to an official position, Mrs. Xu called Xu Han's family over and quarreled, and said in the end: "Tomorrow, I will go to see Cancan, and order Cancan to go and tell the prince to reinstate the court and officials!" ”
Xu Hanshi held back her anger and wanted to persuade her, but when she saw Cui Shi nodding slowly on the side, she temporarily changed her words: "If the old lady wants to go, my daughter-in-law will accompany your old man to the palace tomorrow to see the princess!" ”
Mrs. Xu was satisfied.
Cui Shi followed her mother-in-law to Qingxin Courtyard, waited for her mother-in-law to sit down on the couch, and then said softly: "You can't do anything about the old lady, but don't you still have a princess?" The princess can restrain the old lady! The second aunt Wang was often bullied and abused by the old lady, and Cui felt that the princess should be given a chance to avenge her mother.
Xu Hanshi felt that his daughter-in-law was reasonable, so he nodded: "Then I will ask Mama Qin to go to the palace in advance to make a message to the princess!" ”
Cui Shi hurriedly said: "Mother, with the wisdom of the princess, I am afraid that there is no need to ......."
Xu Hanshi glanced at his daughter-in-law, and was grateful to her for coming up with ideas for herself to help her mother-in-law, but also worried that Cui's would come to fight with her in the future.
Seeing this, Cui Shi understood in her heart, but she did not regret jumping out to help her mother-in-law - she loved her husband Xu Yipeng and was willing to love her mother-in-law in the house and Wubang, which made her husband cherish her even more.
She looked at Xu Hanshi with pure eyes: "Mother, don't worry, your daughter-in-law will serve you well with her father-in-law!" ”
Mrs. Xu sat on the over-the-shoulder with an awning, her two eyes were not enough, she only felt that this prince's mansion was like in a painting, beautiful everywhere, prominent everywhere, her old man's eyes didn't know where to look, and she thought to herself: If it weren't for the old court, where would there be today's magnanimous days? I have to talk to her after a while, let Cancan talk to the prince and grandson-in-law, and quickly restore the boss's official, don't be ungrateful!
Xu Hanshi is full of worries, she is not only happy for her son who has been promoted by leapfrogging, but also worried about her husband who stays at home and sulks after being demoted, and she is also happy for Cancan, who is finally pregnant, all kinds of complex emotions are intertwined, which makes her face have a trace of sadness.
The over-the-shoulder came to a halt outside the inner courtyard door.
Mama Dong and Suzaku led Xu Wang, Mrs. Xu, and Xu Han into the gate.
Looking at the guards standing guard outside the gate, Mrs. Xu was amazed, turned her head and instructed Xu Hanshi: "Han's, when you return to our house, you quickly go and get two young men to guard the door of the inner courtyard, and look majestic!" ”
The corners of Xu Han's mouth twitched slightly, and he forced a smile: "Old lady, this is the dignity that only princes and concubines have, we ordinary people are arrogant, and our daughter-in-law doesn't dare!" She put the accent on the four words "prince and concubine", trying to remind Mrs. Xu not to be rude to Xu Cancan.
Mrs. Xu was often suspicious of Xu Han's, and immediately said, "It's not that you lied to me again, right?" ”
Xu Hanshi: "......"
Xu Wang was busy relieving his sister-in-law, and said with a smile on his face: "Old lady, sister-in-law is right, this is not the decency that everyone can have!" ”
Mrs. Xu glanced at Wang Xu suspiciously, and wanted to block her so that she couldn't get off the stage, but thinking that Wang Xu was now the princess's mother, she forced that anger down.
Outside the door of the main hall, Xu Han hurriedly grabbed Mrs. Xu, who was eager to open the thin bamboo curtain and enter, and said in a low voice: "Old lady, wait for the maids to report!" ”
Old Mrs. Xu glared at her: "Why didn't you say it earlier?" ”
Xu Hanshi: "It's my daughter-in-law who was negligent!" ”
Mrs. Xu took Xu Han and Xu Wang into the main hall with the maid who led the way, and when she looked up, she saw Xu Cancan, elegant and beautifully dressed, sitting on the couch in front of her like a fairy.
As soon as she was about to speak, she remembered the etiquette taught by Xu Han, so she made a gesture to kneel.
Xu Cancan looked at his mother who was following his grandmother, and had to say, "It's all a family, and there is no need to perform a national salute!" ”
Zhu Que, Zhu Yan and Xuan Bing hurriedly stepped forward to help the three of Mrs. Xu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get up and let them sit down.
Xu Cancan sat for a while and was a little tired, so he leaned on the pillow and leaned lazily on the couch, talking to his grandmother, aunt and mother one by one.
After chatting for a while, Mrs. Xu heard that Xu Han's Xu Wang had been talking to Xu Cancan about her pregnancy, and felt that this topic was very boring, so she planned to talk about Xu Cancan.
She took a look at the gap and inserted it: "Cancan, your uncle's-"
Xu Han hurriedly looked at Mrs. Xu, with an anxious expression: "Old lady-"
Mrs. Xu ignored her, and continued: "Why did your uncle's official position come down?" He is a person who is used to being a big official, and it is a shame to be a small official! ”
"If it weren't for your uncle, would you be where you are today? You don't all rely on your uncle......"
"Don't you climb up and forget your benefactor, climb up and fall down the day......"
Xu Cancan treated her as a joke and didn't bother to look at her, but later saw that Mrs. Xu was unbearable, so she glanced at Biyun.
Biyun understood, and immediately looked at Mrs. Xu, and said softly and hardly: "Our prince doesn't let outside things bother the princess, saying that if someone dares to bother the princess with outside things, then they should be beaten, they should be beaten, and they will never be merciful!" ”
Old Mrs. Xu understood Biyun's words, and was faintly afraid, but she still felt unfair in her heart, so she straightened her neck and said: "Cancan, you are the princess, plucking cold hair is thicker than our waist, you talk to the prince, let-"
"Mother-in-law!" Xu Hanshi lowered his voice and tried to stop her.
It was rare for Mrs. Xu to come out, and she felt that she had to finish her words, lest she would not have the opportunity to say in the future: "Cancan, if it weren't for your uncle, you wouldn't know where the road is now——"
"The old lady is deaf!" Xu Cancan interrupted Mrs. Xu and said, "Help the old lady to the west wing to wake up!" ”
Mrs. Xu was still struggling, but Mama Li had already called a few mothers-in-law in, and after wrapping Mrs. Xu, she went out.
Xu Wang hurriedly walked over to comfort his daughter, while Xu Han got up and planned to salute and apologize.
She saluted with a sad face and said: "The princess forgives her sins, it's all the fault of the concubine, and she shouldn't have brought the old lady out!" ”
Xu Cancan said expressionlessly: "Auntie doesn't have to apologize, you can go and help the old lady sober up!" ”
He also said: "I welcome you and your sister-in-law to come over, but my grandmother is old and obscure now, don't let her go out and be embarrassed, just say it's me, and lock her old man in Chunhui Courtyard to recuperate!" ”
Xu Han's heart was secretly happy, and he curtsied and said, "The concubine is determined to obey the princess's order!" "Since it is the order of the princess, I don't think my official husband will object.
Seeing that Xu Han's persuaded her for a long time, Mrs. Xu still stiffened her neck, so Mama Li went to quietly greet Xu Cancan.
Xu Cancan lowered his eyes and said, "Then find a way to send the old lady back!" ”
Mama Li pondered the meaning of the princess in her heart, answered "yes" and retreated.
When she arrived at the West Wing, Mama Li rushed up with a few mothers, covered Mrs. Xu's mouth, carried her limbs and walked out, stuffed into the car that had been parked outside the door of the inner courtyard, and bent her knees at Xu Hanshi with a smile: "The old lady will please ask the eldest lady!" ”
Xu Han had no choice but to order the maid who came with her to restrain Mrs. Xu, and she also got into the car, and went back with a worry on her face and joy in her heart.
Xu Cancan was thinking about his thoughts on the brocade couch.
She and Xu Hanshi cooperated tacitly in a scene today, and teamed up to clean up Mrs. Xu, thinking of Mrs. Xu's deeds over the years, her heart was very happy.
The waiters stood silently.
Xu Wang thought that his daughter was still angry, so he sat on the edge of the brocade couch and persuaded his daughter: "Your grandmother has been so strong all her life, she feels that she is the best in the world, you don't have to be angry with her, you just don't see her in the future......"
Xu Cancan seemed to be listening to it there, and when he saw that his mother had said a lot, he asked with a smile: "Mother, are you thirsty?" ”
Xu Wangshi: "Huh? ”
Xu Cancan smiled and instructed Biyun: "Pour a glass of watermelon juice just sent from the small kitchen to the foreign wife, just give me a glass of peach juice!" ”
Biyun replied "yes" and retreated.
Interrupted by Xu Cancan, Xu Wang also forgot where he was talking about, and asked Xu Cancan: "Cancan, where did I go?" ”
Xu Cancan snickered: "I forgot too." ”
Wang was about to say more, when Biyun came in with a tray carrying a crystal cup of watermelon juice and a crystal cup of peach juice.
Xu Cancan took a sip of the crystal cup filled with peach juice, felt sweet and delicious, and said, "Mother, you are also thirsty, hurry up and drink it!" ”
After drinking a glass of watermelon juice, Xu Wang had completely forgotten the topic just now, and instead talked about Xu Cancan's maintenance during pregnancy.
Seeing that she was worried, Xu Cancan hurriedly comforted: "The prince has already sent two female doctors who specialize in delivering wives and waiting for the moon women to come over, and now they live in the west side of the inner courtyard, come over to accompany them in the morning and evening, you don't have to worry!" ”
Only then did Xu Wang's mind relax.
In order to change the topic, Xu Cancan asked: "How is Yichun's homework now?" ”
Xu Wang hurriedly said: "I heard Mr. Fan say that it's very good!" "Mr. Fan is a contemporary Confucian, and he was invited to the palace by Fu Yuchen. Every time Xu Yichun came back from Guozijian, Mr. Fan taught him his homework.
When Xu Cancan heard this, he lowered his voice and talked to his mother about Yichun's education: "...... Yichun can study hard to be admitted to the Jinshi, and in the future he can become an official, and the prince can help him! She knew that mothers generally hoped that their sons would be successful officials, so she took one to persuade her mother to supervise her younger brother well.
However, she felt that if Yichun was indeed not that material, then it would be better to let it be.
Xu Wang felt that what his daughter said was very reasonable, and nodded again and again, very impressed.
The mother and daughter talked for a while, and it was time for lunch.
Mama Chen commanded the little maid to pass the dishes, and Zhu Yan and Biyun set the meal in the hall, and soon set the lunch.
Xu Cancan was talking to his mother, Zhu Yan stepped forward and curts, and said, "Princess, lunch has been set, all the cold and vegetarian dishes you wanted, and there is no meat star at all; It's just that Mama Chen is worried about your body, so she added a casserole of old hen soup. ”
When Xu Cancan heard the "meat star" and "old hen soup", he retched a little, and only vomited so much that his stomach was empty, but he couldn't eat anything.
Xu Wang felt sorry for her, so he cooked a bowl of somen noodles himself.
She knew that Xu Cancan couldn't smell the smell of oil, so she boiled the noodles with water, and when the noodles were almost cooked, she put the chopped green onions and minced ginger marinated in salt and bean wheat paste, stirred them with a spoon and put them in a bowl.
Xu Cancan vomited so much that tears came out, her little face was pale and her lips were chapped, and when she saw her mother bring Zhu Yan over with a bowl of noodles, she was just about to say that she didn't want to eat it, and she smelled the light aroma of noodles, green onions, ginger and bean and wheat sauce, which didn't make her feel disgusted, so she no longer refused
Xu Wang sat on the side and watched his daughter eat noodles, and his heart was very ironing.
After Xu Cancan ate all the noodles inside, and scooped a spoonful of noodle soup and drank it, she said: "When I was pregnant with you, I couldn't eat anything, I vomited whatever I ate, I could only eat this somen noodle." But your grandmother said that I have a lot of things, and instead of eating a big pot of rice, I eat a small stove, and I don't let me eat the noodles I have made myself......"
As she spoke, she wiped away tears.
Xu Cancan's eyes moistened when she listened to it - she still remembered when her grandmother bullied her mother when she was very young, when she was too young to help her mother, and her mother always hugged her and cried secretly. Later, when I was older, I began to fight with my grandmother......
She lowered her head and blinked her eyes, causing the tears to fall, and then raised her head and said, "Mother, with me, grandmother, she can't bully you anymore!" "I'm going to keep her locked up for a long time!
Xu Wang pulled the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes: "Hmm." "When my daughter was a child, she knew that she protected her mother in front of her grandmother, and she still did this when she grew up.
Seeing that his daughter fell asleep, Xu Wang left.
She doesn't want to trouble people in her life, she doesn't want people to be inconvenient because of herself, she is always afraid that she will stay with her daughter, and it will be inconvenient for her daughter and son-in-law and young couple, so she rarely takes the initiative to come over, and Xu Cancan goes to her side.
In the evening, Xu Shunhe came back from outside.
Xu Wang was busy waiting for her husband to take off his coat and wash his hands, settled his husband and sat on the couch, and handed him a cup of tea.
Xu Shunhe drank tea, she sat on the side and asked, "Cancan can't even smell the smell of oil now, just vomit, is there any antiemetic medicine?" ”
"It's a medicine that is poisonous," Xu Shunhe put down the teacup and said, "You can only eat as light as possible, and wait for the morning sickness to pass!" ”
He thought for a moment and said, "I'll go see Cancan tomorrow!" "It's too late today, and my son-in-law is afraid that he has already returned, so it's better not to go.
Today's court meeting was held in the main hall of the Chongzheng Hall.
Emperor Yong'an glanced at Fu Yuchen, who was sitting on the side, and gave an edict, raising the imperial history Jin Weihuan as a secret envoy of the Privy Council and entering the cabinet.
All the ministers knew that Jin Weihuan was a close confidant of Prince Qing, and it was only a matter of time before he entered the cabinet, so the ministers had no objections (and did not dare to say anything if they had objections).
After the early dynasty dispersed, Fu Yuchen accompanied Emperor Yongan back to the side hall.
Emperor Yong'an drank two sips of tea and looked at Fu Yuchen: "This morning, Dong Guifei begged me, saying that her niece, Dong Cunfu's second girl, because of the wrong candidate, has no one to ...... until now" Xu is pregnant and can't wait for Achen, if it is Achen's two side concubines, they can not only serve Achen, but also extend the heir, wouldn't it be good? You must know that Lu Dao, his agreement with Dingguo Gong is to ask Fu Yuchen's second son to inherit the incense of the Guogong Mansion!
Fu Yuchen didn't expect that Concubine Dong Guifei had already offended him because of the matter of first Shu and Hou, and she actually dared to talk in front of Emperor Yong'an again, when she thought that this woman of the Dong family was absorbing power and accompanying the saint, it would inevitably cause even more trouble, and she couldn't stay any longer!
Countless poisonous schemes began to ferment in his heart.
Fu Yuchen lowered his eyes, and a trace of worry appeared on his handsome face: "Father, the son has always been sick and weak, and it was not easy for Xu to get pregnant, and her fetal image was already unstable......
"Then I won't accept it!" When Emperor Yong'an heard this, he immediately said, "Xu's pregnancy is the most important!" ”
Fu Yuchen said respectfully: "Erchen knows the way!" ”
Fu Yuchen went to the imperial study to correct the recital, Emperor Yongan always felt that Achen's attitude was different today, so he sat in the side hall and thought about it, and then understood that he had fallen for Achen again, and couldn't help laughing.
He was alone for a while, and then decided to do something for Ah Chen and Xu again.
Emperor Yongan ordered Huang Lang to announce the representatives of the four major gate valves in the court into the palace.
It didn't take long for Lan Shaoqi of the Zhengzhou Lan Clan, Zhao Lingqing of the Zhao Clan of Liaozhou, Chen Zhen of the Chen Clan in Jiangnan and Ma Yaowu of the Suzhou Ma Clan to the side hall of the Chongzheng Palace.
Emperor Yong'an and Yan Yuese talked about Dong Guifei's desire to let her niece Dong Er Girl enter the Qing Prince's Mansion as a side concubine, and then said with a smile: "The color is a steel knife to scrape bones, I told Dong that Ah Chen's body is so weak, if you want him to take a concubine, do you want to kill him?" Want to make the Fu family heir? I asked her what she was up to! ”
With that, his eyes slowly swept over the four people in the room.
These four people are officials of the imperial court, but they don't think about the country and the family, they only pay for the family behind them, and now they are pointing fingers at the government and pressing Achen step by step, he has long been unaccustomed to it!
Lan Shaoqi and the others were silent for a moment, and they all understood Emperor Yong'an's attitude in their hearts.
The four of them were silently contemplating in their hearts.
The family has been arranging the marriage for a long time, but I didn't expect the Prince of Qing to be the first, Emperor Yong'an first objected, it seems that he still doesn't want the Prince of Qing to get too close to the four major gates!
While they were thinking about how to report this matter to the family, they chatted with Emperor Yong'an with a smile.
Fu Yuchen also took action.
He consulted for a long time with Chang Ziqi, the secretary of the military department, in the imperial study, and then agreed to set up a festival envoy in the sixteen states of the country, with a status beyond that of the prefect and the general army.
Fu Yuchen decided to wait for these envoys to take up their duties and take the army to the states.
In order not to give the four major valves a chance to oppose it, he prepared to confuse the four major valves first, and then use lightning speed to create the established facts.
When he returned home in the evening, Fu Yuchen was so tired that he couldn't speak.
Xu Cancan didn't ask much, personally helped him undress, and waited for him to sit on the brocade couch, so that Suzaku Xuanbing took the maid to wait for Fu Yuchen to clean his hands, and when everything was done, she served the tea with the right temperature to eat.
Fu Yuchen was very comfortable being waited by her, picked up the tea and drank it all, and his spirit recovered a little, and he looked at Xu Cancan with grievances in his phoenix eyes: "Cancan, I'm tired." ”
Seeing him coquettish to himself, Xu Cancan was very distressed, and hurriedly said: "You lie down first, I'll press it for you!" ”
Fu Yuchen's phoenix eyes looked at her stomach like water.
Xu Cancan smiled: "It's okay!" "My mother came over in the afternoon and made her a bowl of somen noodles, but now she doesn't react at all and is very healthy.
She first glanced at the people waiting in the room and said, "Let's all go down!" ”
When only Biyun and Zhu Yan were left in the room, Fu Yuchen lay on the brocade couch and asked Xu Cancan to pinch his body.
There was no incense in the house, but a few snow-white gardenias were inserted in the vase, and the sweet fragrance of gardenias filled the room with the white mist emitted from the iceberg, quiet and comfortable.
Fu Yuchen's body and mind were completely relaxed, and he forgot about the gate valve crisis that Daliang is facing now
