Chapter 100: Epilogue (I)

"Sister's words are bad, in fact, I envy you too!" Yulin didn't expect Princess Le'an to say this, and it took a long time to say such a sentence, which made Princess Le'an's eyebrows frown slightly and asked: "Why does my sister envy me, if I say that I am the sister of the Son of Heaven and my mother, but Your Majesty treats my sister the same, even ......"

Princess Le'an's words were not spoken, and even in some places, there were one or two points higher than herself! Yulin smiled: "Yuzhi, look, you have a father and mother to be spoiled, and you have brothers and sisters!" I don't envy you for anything else, since I was a child, I envy you for being coquettish with the queen! ”

The queen mother here is naturally not the Hu family, but the queen mother! Princess Le'an thought back and couldn't help laughing: "Yes, I always envy you for getting more than me, but if you think about it carefully, why don't I get more than others?" "The first emperor and the queen mother, although the relationship between husband and wife is not very good, they are good parents in treating their daughters. Princess Le'an grew up being pampered and loved.

Now that you have good parents, what else do you want to do? Princess Le'an raised her eyebrows and smiled, she was bright and beautiful, and this smile was as bright as a peony in full bloom: "I remember my sister's words, don't think about many things, it's okay!" ”

Yulin patted Princess Le'an on the shoulder: "This is the best, you must know that the Son of Heaven is also very protective of you!" "The title of the eldest princess is enough to make Princess Le'an glorious and rich all her life.

"Yes, last month, the third aunt wrote a book, saying that there are too few people and not enough money! Ah Di was angry with her again, but he still issued an edict to increase her income by 30%! "Of course, this result is very different from the request of the eldest princess of Yunmeng, who asked for three iron mines. It was changed by the emperor to the emperor that iron ore was the foundation of the country.

Speaking of the eldest princess of Yunmeng, Yulin's eyebrows furrowed slightly: "The third aunt has been like this in her life, and now her son is still young, and when she is older, there will be a headache for the people of the capital!" ”

"Brother has already thought about it, when the war is settled, he will issue an edict from the nobles' family and select people to enter the barracks!" The war is settled, I don't know when it will be settled, Yulin's heart misses her husband again, Ah Song, you must return safely, I and the child are waiting for you here.

Princess Le'an saw that Yulin was silent, knowing that she missed her husband, and patted her on the shoulder to comfort her. Yulin has already shown a hint of a smile, Xiao Wangshu led his younger brother and stumbled to this side, Yulin opened her arms to catch the child, smelling the * on her daughter's body, only in this way can her heart settle down.

The days passed slowly, and Liu Fengying also adapted to life in the palace, except that she couldn't leave the palace often, there was no shortage of other supplies, and the people who served her were also very respectful. Although there were few banquets in the palace due to the filial piety of the first emperor, the queen would also summon their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law after a while. When Empress Hu summoned their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, she put on a very low posture, as if she was really entertaining relatives at home.

Such a day is very comfortable, but whether it is Liu Fengying or Yulin, they are all thinking about Liu Jinsong in the distance, but they can't show it.

In a blink of an eye, it is the New Year, this is the first time since the emperor ascended the throne to accept the New Year's greetings of hundreds of officials. Yulin saw Yang Molan again before the court.

After so much time, when Yulin saw Yang Molan, her heart was already very calm, as if she was really just a very ordinary person! When Yang Molan saw her daughter like this, she didn't know whether to be relieved or have other thoughts, but she still behaved like a courtesy!

Yulin didn't accept her full salute as usual, and after saying a few words of homely things, Yang Molan said: "It's been a month since the little dog came back from the border pass, and he said that when he left, everything was fine with the horse!" ”

"Thank you Lord Xu, Mrs. Xu who listened to her found a family for Lord Xu, I don't know which girl it is, when the day comes, I will definitely let someone send a congratulatory gift!" Yulin's answer was also calm.

This made Yang Molan feel even more relieved, such a scene should be the scene when she saw her daughter when she saw her daughter away that day, Yang Molan said with a smile: "Our Xu family has nothing to do, and what we are looking for is the daughter of an ordinary family." The girl is seventeen years old this year, Gillian has seen it, and said that it is very gentle and suitable for puppies! ”

It's good to talk about housework so calmly, as if they had never been related by blood. Yulin also smiled: "Mrs. Xu is really thoughtful. In the future, although I will not be able to drink wedding wine, there will definitely be congratulatory gifts! ”

"Thank you, princess!" Yang Molan's eyes looking at Yulin were also so gentle and calm, looking at these eyes that were exactly the same as herself, Yulin smiled: "I heard that Grandma Pan San has given birth to a child, I remember when I first saw her, she was still a child!" ”

"Yes, thanks to the three coats sent by the princess that day, otherwise, Guizhou would be bitterly cold, and I won't be able to survive this old bone!" One question and one answer, just like the most normal princess meets the mother of the important minister, so she intends to make friends, and then talk.

The chamberlain has already let all the women into the palace so that they can congratulate the queen! Yulin was welcomed to the place where the princesses were standing, and when she looked back, she saw that Yang Molan had already stood where she should stand. Things should have returned to their original position, choose it, don't regret it!

Yulin took a deep breath and calmly joined everyone to enter the hall to congratulate and receive the feast, just like every New Year.

At the beginning of the war, whether it was Qingtang or Dayong, they all had plans for a quick victory, after all, fighting a war was a costly matter. So both sides sent elite soldiers to fight several times, although the soldiers of Qingtang were elite, but Dayong's soldiers were not so old and weak.

After several times, although they did not force the Qingtang army back, they did not let them enter the customs one step. Seeing that this was the case, Qing Tang could only set up a position and confront Dayong.

If you confront each other, you can also be regarded as falling into the arms of Dayong, although Dayong has disasters every year, but the territory is vast, and it is common for the valley to be ripe here. But Qingtang is different, one of the reasons why the kings agreed to send troops was that after the attack, they could plunder. Now that the army is spent at the border in this way, the money is spent in a hurry, and there is no way to see it in and out. Moreover, with the war, the border gates and mutual markets were closed, and Qingtang had another source of money.

One day and two days, one month and two months, it can still be supported, this year or two, there are different voices on the Qingtang side, and some people even say that this excuse is too bad, for Princess Yanning alone, consuming so much gold and silver, it is really a loss-making transaction.

The voice of peace on Qingtang's side gradually became louder, and some people even asked to send Princess Yanning to Dayong, no longer pointing to the queen's position, but ordinary concubines. At this moment, no one said that Emperor Qingtang's face was a problem.

All kinds of voices made Emperor Qingtang a little unable to deal with it, but it was absolutely forbidden to send his daughter away, but it was still feasible to negotiate peace.

"Qingtang is going to negotiate peace?" Liu Jinsong took the letter sent by General Wu and couldn't help but smile.

"Damn, after fighting for so long and with so many dead and injured brothers, he said that peace will be discussed, and I really treat my Dayong as a piece of fat, can I just bite it?" General Wu wiped the saliva from his beard and said with a big grin.

The people in the army are naturally not so gentle, and Liu Jinsong is also used to seeing it, so he doesn't care about it and says: "You and I naturally can't decide this matter." Let's report it to the court! ”

"The Imperial Court?" General Wu said twice: "Those sour talents, I can't wait to negotiate peace immediately." You don't know, yesterday I met a quartermaster and complained to me that the quartermaster was burning too fast. I don't want to think about it, can the emperor still send hungry soldiers? ”

Liu Jinsong smiled and listened to General Wu's complaints, and had already written a note, and then said to General Wu: "Although Qingtang has the heart to negotiate peace, he can't slack off!" General Wu restrained the smile on his face, clenched his fists and led away.

Liu Jinsong sealed this seal, and let people send it back to Beijing quickly, and there was lovesickness in his heart, Yulin, how are you and the children?

"Mother, when will Daddy come back? said that he had been going for half a year, but now, it has been more than a year, and even his younger brother can walk, talk and learn to write, why haven't you seen him come back? Xiao Wangshu held his chin and looked at his mother.

Yulin held Liu Liang's little hand and taught him to write his name stroke by stroke, until the last stroke was finished, Yulin put down the pen and said to her daughter: "You are the best at complaining, if your father can come back, he will naturally come back." Look at this hand, where did you get this dirty thing from? ”

Xiao Wangshu puffed out his cheeks: "But, Daddy hasn't come back for so long, Brother Wen said, will Daddy find me a new aunt at the border!" ”

"Nonsense, how could your father find you a new aunt? Besides, you forgot, your mother and I are a princess, how can a concubine be found by a concubine? Xiao Wangshu's brows furrowed, and after thinking hard, he said: "But Brother Wen's father, after going out for two years, came back and brought him a new aunt!" also said, what else to say, the man's house is outside, there is a shortage of people to serve, and it is common to buy someone to serve! ”

"You, if you don't remember my words, just remember your brother's tattoo, his mother is different from me!"

"Shouldn't I call his mother my aunt too?" Xiao Wangshu's problems are more than one another, Yulin can't explain it, this aunt and aunt are also different, Xiao Wangshu not all aunts are eldest princesses, there are also county lords, county lords and even clan daughters! simply hugged his daughter on his lap and pointed at her little nose: "You, no matter what others say, remember one thing, your father loves you, he won't and can't find you a new aunt!" ”

Xiao Wangshu nodded, and then added: "Well, then when I marry in the future, I can't let my child have any new aunt!" ”

Yulin patted her daughter's little face: "How old are you, just thinking about this?" ”

"Our little Shu'er, we are all five years old, and at this age, we can't be considered very young!" Liu Fengying's voice came from outside the door, and Xiao Wangshu jumped off Yulin's knee and ran out of the door to greet her: "Grandmother! ”

Liu Liang also walked to the door in a proper manner: "Grandmother! Liu Fengying hugged Xiao Wangshu, took Liu Liang, and walked in the door with a smile, Yulin got up to greet her: "Fang Cai Niangniang's side, send some new fruits, I still want to send it to my mother-in-law, but it just so happens that you are here!" ”

"It's October, it's time for the fruits to go off the market, how can there be new fruits?" Although Liu Fengying has also grown up in a wealthy family since she was a child, she has been in the palace for more than a year, and she will still be shocked by the wealth of the palace. Last year, because it was the mourning period of the first emperor, many offerings in the palace were reduced. This year, the usual practice has gradually begun to return, and many of the offerings are similar to those of previous years.

"On the Huangzhuang, the fruit trees of each year should be picked in turn, so that from March to November, there are new fruits to eat, and the remaining months are only eaten in the cellar. The same is true for fresh vegetables. Yulin explained with a smile, Liu Fengying couldn't help nodding, you can still eat fresh vegetables in snowy weather, and only the royal family can ignore this cost. Other people, even if they want to eat, they have to calculate the price, at most they hide some Chinese cabbage, leeks, lotus roots, etc.

The rest of the people, if they want to eat vegetables in winter, they can only live on dried vegetables, which is better than nothing. As for small households, pickles are always available!

Liu Fengying sighed before she said to Yulin: "I just heard in a trance that there is news from the border pass, saying that Qingtang intends to negotiate peace, and I want to ask you, do you know this?" ”

Peace? These two words made Yulin's brows furrow, and then Yulin showed a happy smile on her face, if she negotiated peace, it would prove that she didn't want to fight, and if she didn't want to fight, then her husband could return.

"I haven't heard yet, mother-in-law, you stay here for a while, I'll go and ask Your Majesty!" Only Yulin has such an identity to ask. Liu Fengying nodded, sent her daughter-in-law out, and hugged her granddaughter when she came back: "Xiao Shu'er, your father, I'm afraid I'll be back soon!" ”

It's true? Xiao Wangshu's face suddenly showed a happy look, and Liu Liang's brows were furrowed very tightly: "Grandmother, what does Daddy look like, does he still remember me?" ”

It's so stupid that I can't even remember what my dad looks like! Xiao Wangshu's little chin was raised proudly, and he said to his younger brother: "Daddy must remember you, as for Daddy's appearance, I remember, there are a pair of big eyes, and a very high nose, well, raw, the best-looking, I have ever seen the best-looking person!" ”

"Is it better looking than the third uncle?" Liu Liang asked unconvinced, Princess Le'an's concubine is the best-looking among the princesses of this generation except for Liu Jinsong.

Xiao Wangshu nodded immediately: "Of course, our father is the best-looking!" Saying that, Xiao Wangshu's eyes flashed with longing, Liu Liang frowned, and also supported his chin with his chubby little hands, trying to think about what his father looked like.

"Qingtang does have plans to negotiate peace, but well." Princess Qin stopped talking, Yulin was no longer the girl who didn't know anything about the thoughts of the ministers, her eyebrows were already furrowed: "The ministers have different opinions? ”

The princess of Qin Guo nodded: "The people who used to shout that they couldn't fight, but the most fierce ones who are shouting at this moment are the people who can't negotiate peace." The DPRK and China have been arguing for several days. I really don't know when they won't be arguing! ”

Yulin patted the hand of the princess of Qin Kingdom: "You and Brother don't want to fight?" The princess of Qin nodded, war, it is really a very expensive thing, and Dayong's national strength is not as good as before, so naturally he can't just fight out and take down all the Qingtang as some people say. To be honest, Dayong doesn't have so much silver to support such a war, but easily agreeing to negotiate peace will also make Qingtang look down on him, so he can only think of the best way.

Seeing that the princess of Qin Guo frowned and pondered, Yulin couldn't help but gently patted her hand: "Sister, I know, I can't intervene in such a big matter, I only hope that my husband can return as soon as possible." ”

"I know!" Princess Qin nodded! War, in the minds of many literati and writers, is just a topic that adds talking points so that they can write poems and essays. But for every soldier, it is cruel, and there is not only one saying that it will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither.

"Poor and uncertain riverside bones, like a person in a spring boudoir dream!" The princess of Qin recited such a poem in a low voice, Yulin didn't speak anymore, just looked into the distance, her thoughts could not be suppressed, and she was about to be full.

"The meaning of the imperial court, it is okay to negotiate peace, but there are still a few small battles?" When General Wu heard what Liu Jinsong said, the court couldn't help frowning.

Liu Jinsong understood in his heart that this was a gesture made by the imperial court, a gesture that could not be easily negotiated. couldn't help sighing, and then said: "This is also a normal thing, Qingtang can easily start a war, and naturally it can't be easy for them to negotiate peace!" ”

"The words of those literati in the DPRK and China are the most unlistenable, and they can't move their faces at every turn, but they don't know that these are all bought by the lives of their brothers, and there is no family here!" Someone couldn't help but shout, Liu Jinsong smiled faintly: "There will be soon, it is said that a reinforcement will arrive!" ”

Fighting a war is a dangerous thing, but if you can make a war merit and become an official in the future, it is very simple! At this time, Qingtang has the intention to negotiate peace, but if he doesn't come to grab this fruit at this time, he will have a little military exploits, when will he wait?

Liu Jinsong's words aroused the disgust of many people: "Come at this time, do you want to grab credit?" ”

Liu Jinsong lowered his eyes, this was also something that could not be helped, but soon Liu Jinsong raised his head: "Everyone, I will truthfully report your merits to the court!" "If you want to grab it, you have to see if there is this weight!

"General, having said that, but the group of sour and rotten talents in the imperial court can't fight, and they are very bad at governing the country, but when it comes to grabbing credit and digging up the wall, they are shrewd! That's all we coarse. But now they want to find a crime and press it on your head, General, and then they will remove General Lin, this is not impossible! ”

These words made Liu Jinsong smile, and someone had already refuted the person who had just spoken: "Don't you look at it, what kind of person General Lin is, a dignified horse, or a ......"

"It is precisely because the willow horse is a horse that it is easy to be ......," the man who spoke before he said half a sentence and paused without speaking.

Liu Jinsong also smiled, if the princess of Qin didn't even have this trust, then what else would she talk about. Yulin, you wait for me, I'll be back soon, back to reunite with you.

Liu Jinsong stood up with a smile on his lips and said, "No matter what, everyone, these last few battles must be fought well, and also, reduce casualties!" ”

The generals stood up and shouted in unison. Liu Jinsong has a pride in his heart, and the husband should be like this!

"Someone impeached Liu Juma in the last chapter, saying that he was greedy for merit and reckless and held the military power!" After hearing what Cheng Su'e said, the princess of Qin Guo showed a smile: "This group of people can't help but jump out again!" ”

"Yes, princess, this piece can be left unpublished, but if it is ......" Princess Qin interrupted Cheng Su'e: "Don't worry, I have a reason!" "Cheng Su'e should be, put the thick impeachment recital on the desk of the princess of Qin!

Seeing that the princess of Qin State ignored her, Cheng Su'e couldn't help but ask after a while: "Princess, if those people ...... again"

The princess of Qin raised her head and said in a calm tone: "They will impeach, won't I?" Check it out, among the support soldiers, who are the people from the Chu family and the Wu family? ”

Cheng Su'e knew that it should be, the princess of Qin looked at the thick chapter, straightened out the rule of officials, and cleaned up these messes, it was really not an overnight effort, it has been almost two years now, but she has just figured out a little clue.

The princess of Qin Guo took out a book of musicals, looked at the name on it, and couldn't help but smile, even if the Zhu family has been ordered not to go out, she can still do something through her in-laws.

"Sister?" The emperor came in from outside, and when he saw that the princess of Qin was holding a piece of music in her hand and didn't speak, he couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Who is this piece of music, and why doesn't Sister hold it?" ”

"It's nothing unusual, it's just a request to honor the Queen Mother's recital!" The princess of Qin looked up at the emperor, but did not get up to greet her, the smile on the emperor's face froze slightly, and then said: "These people, I really think ......"

"Brother!" The princess of Qin interrupted the emperor's words: "What if you know? It's just because, behind these people, which one is not intertwined, and most of the court are in-laws? ”

It is precisely because of this that the emperor feels that he is a widow and will be opposed to anything he does.

The emperor covered his face with his hands: "Sister, which of the ministers in this court do you say is not for his own interests?" Which one really stands with me? Sister, I'm scared, I can only understand now, my father's desire to speak that day stopped! ”

Such fragility can only be shown by the emperor in front of the princess of Qin, who patted the emperor on the shoulder: "Therefore, we can only take our time and not rush in easily." As for the Zhu family, an edict will be issued in the name of the Queen Mother! ”

Only in this way did the emperor's determination be expressed, and the emperor sighed, that is, his own mother, when even his mother can turn against himself for the sake of power, what else can he trust? No wonder the Son of Heaven wants to be called a widow.

This road of holding the highest power is really difficult to walk, and it is more difficult than the emperor imagined.

"Your Majesty, you gave an edict to the Zhu family, reprimand? How dare he, how could he? Empress Dowager Zhu still heard a little wind this time, grabbed her daughter's arm and asked.

Princess Le'an looked at her mother: "Mother, now, do you still want to earn something for the Zhu family?" ”

"Shut up!" Empress Dowager Zhu scolded her daughter: "That's your uncle, your grandfather, your ......"

"But they have never been kind to me, they just want to be prosperous and rich to me, and even to you, mother!" Princess Le'an's words made Empress Dowager Zhu stunned, and then she was about to shout: "How dare you, how can you!" ”

"Mother, if you are still obsessed, from now on, I will not come again!"

The author has something to say: how can he not come up with a title, so it is so. Mask your face.

Penultimate chapter. Although there are very few people who like this article, I like it very much, thank you again.
