Chapter 261
The Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager are worried about national affairs and the education of the monarch, Xu Xun is not idle, and the Empress Dowager goes to Renshou Palace to ask for peace, she doesn't know, and even if she does, she won't go with her - she is also busy these days. You can either pro () or search for it, after all, Ah Huang's marriage has now reached the stage of counting the dowry step by step.
When a princess marries, the etiquette is different from that of ordinary people marrying daughters, and the whole focus is very obviously on the side of the heavenly family, including the mansion. The princess has a princess's mansion, the horse has a concubine's mansion, this concubine's mansion is for the concubine and the family to live, the furnishings are purchased by the Zongren Mansion, although the situation of the mansion is different, but the things are those, if there is a deficiency, it depends on how the concubine himself acts, the character is honest, and his own family pays for it. If there is such a greedy and ignorant person, he will also cry in front of the princess with the horse, so that she will open her mouth to the palace and make up for the horse house.
As for the princess's mansion, it is different, in addition to the one given by the Zongren Mansion, the dowry prepared for the princess in the palace over the years has also been transported to the princess's mansion for placement. Are there any ordinary things in the palace? The princess's mansion is naturally resplendent and splendid, and it is not much different from the palace. This place is only for the princess and the accompanying upbringing grandmother, the envoy and the servant to live, the horse family, and so on can not trespass, even if you enter the door, you must abide by the etiquette of the monarch and the minister. Although the princess is subject to many constraints, at this point, she is better than the previous dynasty, at least she will not be angry with her in-laws, and she lives alone and is the master of the house, which is a blessing that women in the world cannot enjoy.
Since the rules are like this, then there is no dowry, in fact, this is not a dowry in the orthodox sense, after all, the princess is married, and she is still regarded as a member of the heavenly family, not a person from the husband's family, it should be said that it is a gift from the palace to the princess to open the house.
The immortal master saved a piece of furniture for Ah Huang ten years ago, and Emperor Zhang also said before that Ah Huang is the eldest daughter, and the dowry should be thickened. Anyway, there are only three girls in this generation, and the inner treasury also has money, so it won't be unaffordable. Whether it was the Empress Dowager or the Empress Dowager, they did not say anything to thin Ah Huang's dowry, but prepared it as promised. It is also conceivable how rich this dowry is. In the Xiyuan warehouse, three big rooms were opened for Ah Huang's dowry alone, and I still felt that I couldn't fit in the crowds. In addition, the dowry book, after ten years of deletion, deletion and modification, is really very complicated, and ordinary people are afraid that they will not be able to understand it. Today, when these cages were to be transported to the princess's mansion for plastering, even Xu Xun personally went out, otherwise, it was really difficult to achieve the unity of accounts and facts.
"A box of variegated gemstones, including more than 30 red and blue scattered gems the size of rice grains, and more than 10 diamonds." Liu Shanggong held the booklet and read a line, and the person at the bottom brought a box up, Xu Xun opened it and looked at it, she frowned: There are only about three of the gems in the box.
Today she brought Ah Huang along, and now the little girl is sitting on the side, looking at the cages in the yard, and her eyes are a little fresh. Seeing that the jewelry seemed to be wrong, he looked at Xu Xun curiously, as if waiting to see her reaction. Xu Xun thought about it and had some clues. "Three or four years ago, when I was making a dowry, did I take out all the gems in this box and make a set of hair noodles for her?"
Ah Huang's dowry book is a thick and solid book, and it also carries countless warrant reply letters, and the history of Han Nu has been turned over for a long time, "There is this article, a total of seventeen red sapphires were taken in the winter of the ninth year, eight diamonds, six headbands, and two phoenix hairpins." ”
Everyone really found these things in the jewelry box, and Xu Xun also counted the number of gems, "Yo, it's just right, I always thought I was going to break one or two." ”
"Niangniang is really good at laughing." Everyone laughed, "How dare you embezzle this pair of accounts, if you swallow one, the whole family will have to pay for it, it's not cost-effective." ”
Xu Xun also smiled, and counted down, most of them could be compared to the records in the account books, and occasionally there were no matches, Ah Huang took the initiative to say, "I have to look for this, but I don't know when to find it." I thought that I had withdrawn it to do something else, and it came out naturally after reading it. ”
Ah Huang didn't speak, Xu Xun just wanted to think carefully, Ah Huang spoke, she was also happy, but she still didn't dare to be too careless: this child is careful, she already knew, if she made a note for this matter, she misunderstood that she was guarding and stealing, and took something that should not be taken, it would be in vain. Otherwise, there is no need for both parties to come forward in person, and each of them will send a henchman, and the matter will be over.
She checked it here, then packed a box, moved it aside, and started in the morning, and was busy until noon, when more than ten boxes were cleared, and there were many more to be counted. Although Ah Huang was tired, he still didn't mention the words, and Xu Xun had to accompany her at this point. But in the afternoon, she was tired, so she only asked Han Nu Shi Nian, Hua'er and Liu Shanggong to check and count, and she and Ah Huang sat on the chair and watched.
After a while, it was afternoon, Xu Xun was drowsy, Ah Huang was young, but he was still in good spirits, as if he was very curious, staring at the cage. Everyone in the courtyard didn't dare to slack off because of her, and they all beat their spirits and counted carefully. Xu Xun sat on the chair blowing the warm spring breeze, and after a while, his head was little by little, and he almost didn't plant it on the ground.
Just walking through the process so dullly and mechanically, there are many palace maids outside, and the ants are moving the lock haode boxes to the cart little by little, ready to be sent to the princess's mansion first. There was silence inside and out, only the orderly chanting of Han Nushi, Liu Shanggong and Hua'er resounded above the silent courtyard.
Because the inside and outside are so close, once there is a little abnormality, it is also very refreshing, Xu Xun was still immersed in a hazy sleep, and suddenly heard a series of footsteps rushing towards the courtyard, so he suddenly came to his senses, straightened up and looked through the hall - in such a hurry, something important must have happened.
Sure enough, it was Lan'er who came, Hua'er was not there, Qing'an Palace should be her boss, and she came out to deliver the message in person, which shows that this problem is not small. Xu Xun raised his eyebrows, only let the flowers bow halfway, and then asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Lan Er took a few steps forward, attached it to Xu Xun's ear, and said softly, "Niangniang, there is a disturbance in the Qianqing Palace!" At this time, the Queen Mother has passed, and she has sent someone to ask where you are, and the slave and maid have rushed over to look for you. ”
"Got a commotion?" Xu Xun repeated in surprise, "You tell me carefully, what's going on." ”
"The slaves and maids don't all understand, but they vaguely heard that it was the old lady and the mother who sent someone to scold Wang Zhen, and they were going to be killed on the spot." Lan Er's brows were also furrowed tightly, "But if something happens to let the Queen Mother go over in person, the slave and maid don't know." ”
This...... Although Xu Xun also knew about the emperor's disrespectful remarks, and also suggested that it be dealt with seriously, she didn't expect that the Queen Mother would discuss with the Queen Mother a way to kill directly, which is not a level of response at all compared to moving to the Qianqing Palace. The latter was already strict enough, and she was afraid that if she dealt with it like this, she would overwhelm the emperor, but she didn't expect the empress dowager and the empress dowager to be even more slaughtered, because if she said something wrong, she would kill the emperor's companion.
Although Wang Zhen is a person, she doesn't like it too much, but after all, it is the emperor's companion, even if there are bad deeds, it is not obvious, and he will be killed in a word, even if the ministers know that they will try their best to praise the virtues of the two mothers, but for the emperor, will this move be too much? Since the Queen Mother wants to go to the Qianqing Palace in person, it should be a trouble......
In the midst of all his thoughts, Xu Xun couldn't care about this stubble, and instructed Han Nushi to let her count the dowry, and specially said to Ah Huang, "Don't worry, if there are discrepancies, and remember them first, I will explain to you tomorrow." ”
Ah Huang finally had some surprise on his face at this point, "Why should Niangniang be like this, can you still be greedy for me?" Since you want to go back, I won't stay, just let Mom stay. ”
In fact, Xu Xun is not unable to understand her mood, Emperor Zhang is gone, the Empress Dowager is old, and the relationship between Ah Huang and her is only mediocre, although the immortal master has been good in recent years, but his hands are not loose after all, who knows how the emperor treats his sisters? Although there is also a Zhuangtian when he gets married, the Zongren Mansion will also provide daily expenses, but he has no support in the palace, and it is normal to want to save a little more. If she doesn't have a confidant and doesn't come to see it herself, can't she let the property flow to others? So he just shook his head, "No need, you look at it, there are some omissions, but I'm afraid it's really omission." ”
hurriedly dropped a sentence, and slightly straightened her clothes, she went out with Lan'er, got into the sedan chair, and asked them to carry it directly to the Qianqing Palace. However, Xiyuan was originally a distance from the Qianqing Palace, and a few people were in the depths of Xiyuan again, although they were in a hurry, but for a while, they couldn't get to the ground.
Halfway through, the sedan chair suddenly paused, and Lan Er said softly on the sedan chair, "Niangniang...... The Queen Mother's palanquin is back. ”
What else will Xu Xun go to Qianqing Palace? I couldn't say anything on the way, so I had to follow the Queen Mother and turn around and go to Qingning Palace. Before she got to the house, she got off the sedan chair first, but saw that the queen mother had not moved for a long time, so she went to the sedan chair and wondered, "Sister, are you okay?" ”
After a while, the Queen Mother replied in a thick nasal voice, "It's okay." ”
As he spoke, he lifted the curtain and came out, and sure enough, his eyes were red and swollen, and he knew at a glance that he must have been crying in the sedan chair just now.
Seeing this, Xu Xun didn't know that there must be a dispute in the Qianqing Palace, and the Queen Mother seemed to be the one who was angry. She didn't speak, and when everyone sat down in the room, she asked, "Is this Wang Zhen dead?" ”
When the Queen Mother heard Wang Zhen's words, she was shocked, and tears came out of her eyes, she covered her face and lowered her head for a while, before she said in a dumb voice, "Mama Zhou...... Come and talk to her! ”
Mama Zhou also looked solemn and worried, seeing the Queen Mother like this, her eyes were also red, so she knelt in front of Xu Xun and whispered about the things in the Qianqing Palace.
It turned out that the Queen Mother sent to kill Wang Zhen was Mama Zhou, but when she arrived in the Qianqing Palace, she scolded Wang Zhen a few times, and the emperor drank her, as if he knew her intentions, and Mama Zhou was not allowed to take Wang Zhen away, and the two sides could only stalemate there. Mama Zhou relied on being a close friend of the Queen Mother, and also advised the emperor a few words, but the emperor became angry and wanted to kill Mama Zhou. When the queen mother arrived, she was also shocked and angry, and scolded the emperor a few words, and the emperor lost his temper, only saying that he was not the queen mother's own child, and he had a little bit of haode people, and the queen mother had to take it away. It is not enough to take Concubine Luo first, but now he wants to take Wang Zhen, and he also said that after he is in power, he will definitely abolish the position of the queen mother, investigate her yin to take the son of man, and posthumously seal her biological mother as the queen mother Yunyun.
Xu Xun couldn't say anything when she heard it, although she guessed that Xuan'er might be a little suspicious of her life experience, but she didn't expect that he actually knew everything, and he knew it so clearly, and now he shouted it out like this, obviously he didn't care about the so-called mother-son relationship with the Queen Mother, and he wanted to tear his face apart. - No wonder the Queen Mother is so depressed that she can't even speak.
Now thinking about the past, probably because the grievances have passed for a long time, and the remaining feelings are not strong, Xu Xun does not have much schadenfreude, but also a little melancholy, the queen mother's life, can also be said to be constantly rolling and struggling in the torrent of fate, she has been beautiful, low, and desperate to let go, although this time to make a move, for her to win today's glory and wealth, but the bitterness and bitterness, it is difficult to envy her fate. has come to this point, and she still has to worry about her own posteriority, and I don't know how many days there will be in her life when she is truly happy and happy.
"That's." She drank first--not so comforting the Queen Mother, but I was afraid that she would not even have the composure of a serious conversation, "The Empress was established by Emperor Zhang, and the bolt was also approved by the eldest brother, so it was recorded in the name of the mother and raised by her." As for Concubine Luo's death, although it is worth regretting, it is indeed because of the epidemic, and the treatment before and after is done with all her heart, so how can you take it away? The emperor is ignorant and talks nonsense, you should teach him the truth, how can he get angry and angry with the queen mother? ”
These words are reasonable, but they failed to soothe the queen mother's emotions, she still covered her face with her hands, lying on the desk without moving, Xu Xun saw that it didn't work, and her voice also fell, she exchanged a look with Mama Zhou, and saw that Mama Zhou was also full of anxiety, so she stepped forward and gently pushed the queen mother, and said in a low voice, "Niangniang, Niangniang?" ”
This push doesn't matter, the queen mother's body is crooked, and she is pushed down by Xu Xun, Xu Xun can't help but be shocked, busy to help, in a hurry, he also fell, a group of people messed up for a while, then the queen mother was helped up, first probed the nose - there is still there, only if there is nothing. When she looked at it again, she saw that the queen was like a golden paper, her lips were crooked, and she didn't reply no matter how she shouted, her heart was cold, and she hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up and ask the imperial doctor - all biedong first, put it down!" - The mother has a stroke! ”
The author has something to say: the style of the Empress Dowager has once again played off......
