On the first day of October, the Wenhua Hall swept the whole city at the fastest speed. Especially in the afternoon of the same day, two teams of brightly armored soldiers of the Rui Cavalry Battalion hurriedly escorted two carriages out of the palace out of the city, and soon there were rumors that the emperor ordered someone to escort the eldest prince and the second prince out of Beijing, which made the officialdom and the people fall into a lot of commotion.

To say that people who sympathize with this pair of brothers cannot be said to be none. After all, just a year ago, the two were the queen's concubines who were the most promising to enter the East Palace, but now the queen has been deposed, and the brothers are more unlucky than the other.

However, the eldest prince and the second prince, one has been hypocritical for so many years, but his true nature in Cangzhou was exposed, causing a catastrophe; One is from small absurd to big, not long ago, there was a poisoning incident in Kunning Palace, which eventually led to the dethronement of the queen. Now that the two brothers are in trouble at the same time and in the same place, but they kick the iron plate, what else can others say?

To put it more seriously, the second prince slandered not only Zhang Shou's mother, but also accused his father of being so deaf that he couldn't even distinguish between his own children. As for the eldest prince, let alone slander the master and watch the Son of Heaven - if you don't watch, you, a person who is locked up in the prison of Zongzheng Temple, where do you know where Zhang Shou's accessories come from?

Therefore, it was obvious that the two princes were suddenly kicked out of the capital in a miserable and miserable manner, which was a big thing, and everyone shook their heads and sighed for a while, but their attention was focused on the other two things.

One of them is naturally the confused background of Zhu Ying and Princess Yongping, and of course Zhang Shou's. It's just that Zhang Shou, who has been asserted by the emperor to be just an ordinary showman, is of course not as eye-catching as these two girls who can be called the ladies of heaven who don't know who is who.

As for the second, that is, the popular "Ge's Arithmetic New Edition" is not ...... In other words, it is not exactly Ge Yong's work, but Ge Yong and Zhang Shou teachers and students claim to have reviewed the Chinese and foreign classics together, and then rearranged and compiled. And if Ge Yong's frank admission is true, it is even more likely that Zhang Shou completed it independently!

In contrast, the boat that Zhang Shou displayed in public at the Wenhua Hall that could move forward automatically was only circulated in a small area among interested people. Even the Confucius scholar who went toe-to-toe with Zhang Shou in the Wenhua Hall has become insignificant and not worth mentioning under this series of events.

However, the Confucius scholar himself would not feel that Zhang Shou's lecture and demonstration were insignificant and not worth mentioning. After the feast, he directly took leave to leave Wenyuan Pavilion and went home on the grounds that he was not feeling well, and after he arrived in the mansion, the old man who had always been deep in the city government locked himself in the study, and after dropping the pen stand, then a confidant was sent out by him to deliver letters.

In the past, it was Shoufu Jiang Ge Lao who was conservative, but he was quite open-minded, and he also attracted a large number of new talents who were once dissatisfied with Jiang Ge Lao. However, when he came to power himself, he did not want too many unstable factors to jump out. It is true that he supports the Northern Expedition, but now that the Northern Captives have been completely beaten and scared, what is the toss at this time if he does not recuperate?

Is it because of Zhang Shou's extremely weird display effect, what kind of navigation technology is tossed? It's ridiculous! Those small foreign countries have thousands of years of poetry and etiquette in China, can they be compared with the profound heritage accumulated in China?

When the Confucian Mansion was posting a heroic post, intending to stop Zhang Shouhua from bewitching the emperor with clever words, Zhang Yuan turned off the lights and fell asleep early. Compared with Zhang Yuan, Zhao Guogong's Mansion was also dark and quiet in many places that night.

Because Zhu Jing simply sat in the military department at night and did not come back, he was known to be busy with affairs, but he didn't know what the Taiping military department could do to keep him, the secretary of the military department, busy.

Zhu Tingfang, the eldest prince, is also known as working overtime in the Nancheng Soldiers and Horses, although this is not the first time, but it is conceivable that he, the cold-faced god, is sitting in it, not to mention that the once unruly Nancheng Soldiers and Horses are silent, it is said that even the snakes in the Nancheng have been at the gate at night to listen to the orders.

Compared with the father and son, who have always been powerful, Zhu Er actually went to Lu's house to rub it, and the next day was the crown ceremony of Lu Xiaofat, and his friend was going to support - I had never heard that the crown ceremony would be held early in the middle of the night!

If it was just the father and brother, it would be enough, sent Ge Yong home, and personally sent Zhang Shou to Jiuzhangtang, Zhu Ying went home on this day, and heard the people at the gate say that the father and son would not go home tonight, and then met the grandmother and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who went out together, and claimed to go to the Buddhist temple to pray for blessings and vows, so angry that she lost her temper directly at the gate of the Zhaoguo Mansion.

"Grandmother and mother, are you trying to avoid me? Is it necessary to fast for two days directly in the monastery? Could it be that when the emperor said this in public in the Wenhua Palace, you don't treat me as your own family, so you have to hide out and not see me? ”

At this moment, Zhu Ying, who locked herself in the room in anger and refused to even eat dinner, couldn't help but close her jewelry box heavily, and didn't bother to listen to the sound of Zhan Jin and Liuyin knocking on the door in turn. Suddenly, her brows moved as she was in a daze with her hair in the mirror, and she turned her head suddenly, only to see that the door was pushed open so directly!

Seeing Jiu Niang walking in so generously, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded. She clearly remembered that she had gone to the latch, otherwise Zhan Jin and Liuyin would not have to knock on the door and ask people to be in a hurry, how did her mother come in?

Before Zhu Ying could speak, she saw Jiu Niang's wrist flip, revealing a bright rhino horn hairpin. She immediately remembered the legendary scripts she had read, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Mother, have you ever been a female snitch part-time?" "I even slid the door and picked the lock!

"You girl can't spit ivory out of her mouth!"

Jiuniang was angry and funny, she gave an order without looking back, and waited for Zhan Jin and Liuyin to follow in, set up the small table, and sent a steaming meal, and then tiptoed back, she sighed and said: "Your father and your eldest brother and second brother can't think about how to treat you at home, so they run away and hide outside." As for me and your grandmother......"

"We really just plan to go to a stick of incense, and then arrange for Ah Shou's mother to do a ritual and come back when we go."

This time, Zhu Ying was embarrassed. She bowed her head in disdain and whispered, "I thought you and your grandmother were going to go out for two days to avoid me...... Who let the porter at the gate tell me that my father will not come back, the eldest brother will not come back, and the second brother will not come back! Didn't the emperor say, I don't know if I was born to your mother, or Concubine Yu's mother? It's just such a small thing! ”

It's just such a small thing...... Only you, a big-hearted girl, think it's a trivial matter. Since Princess Yongping was keenly aware of it, she didn't know how many hearts she had secretly borne and how many tears she had shed!

Otherwise, they wouldn't have avoided me every time! In the past, when Concubine Yu came to see her in the temple, I don't know how many times I sighed at her!

Jiuniang thought to herself that Mrs. Tai's worries, and the comfort she thought about outside the door was completely in vain.

Zhu Ying was only unhappy about the family's cautious attitude towards her - but their caution, didn't they all want to take it step by step, don't stimulate this girl who everyone has been holding in the palm of their hands?

"This little thing in your mouth has made the emperor be beaten down by the queen mother after he went back, the palace was in an uproar, the streets and alleys were all hotly discussed, and the official offices were about to explode. You can still have a leisurely lunch in the Katsu Mansion, and when you come back to see me and your grandmother go out together, you lose your temper. ”

"And then you were so angry that you locked yourself in the house until now, do you think we can afford to worry?"

Zhu Ying was so defeated by Jiu Niang that she could only laugh weakly, and then she simply sat down in front of the small table, and when she saw that all the dishes were what she liked to eat, she wrinkled her nose and said, "Who told you not to tell me the truth before!" ”

The so-called truth that no one knows what's going on, can you just tell it? If it weren't for the idiot of the second prince today who directly picked up some rumors on the surface, this matter would definitely be covered for a long time.

When the emperor said it today, he already had the consciousness that the rebellion of the king, which had been suppressed, was once again taken out and talked about!

Jiu Niang thought so in her heart, but in the end, she came behind Zhu Ying and gently surrounded this daughter who watched from a dumpling to a peerless beauty. Seeing that Zhu Ying's body stiffened at first, and then leaned comfortably on herself, like a kitten enjoying herself, she smiled and said: "For me, you were all born safely, this is the greatest comfort." ”

"Whether you or Yongping, don't say that you may not be wrong, even if you really make a mistake, whether you are raised in the palace or in the Zhaoguo Mansion, it is all pampered, brocade clothes and jade food, glory and wealth are inexhaustible, in contrast, Ah Shou is the most pitiful, and he was born without a mother. Therefore, the most irritated thing I was back then, except for your father's attitude, was the belated Hua Qi! ”

"Because it was he who reminded your father, the three children born in the same year, the same month and the same day, there are already two confused, if the only boy is mixed in again, and is said to have a suspicious background, then the two families are in big trouble, not to mention, it will also involve Ah Shou, who has no mother." And Zhu Jing is a particularly sensitive and thoughtful person, so he immediately made that kind of excessive decision.

Seeing Zhu Yingdeng turn her head and be surprised, Jiu Niang gently scratched her chin, and when she saw her daughter giggling and hurriedly dodging, she skipped the topic and said with a smile: "All in all, the Queen Mother is willing to treat you as a granddaughter, and the emperor and Concubine Yu are willing to treat you as a daughter, this is their business, but in my eyes, you are the mother's daughter." ”

"It's my mother's daughter who was pregnant for nine months and finally gave birth! Now that she is about to marry Ruyi Langjun, her mother is really happy! ”

"Mother!" Zhu Ying finally stood up, couldn't help but hug her mother's waist, and rested her head on Jiu Niang's shoulder affectionately, "I will always be your daughter, don't leave me like you did when you went to the temple!" ”

"Back then, I couldn't think about it for a while, and I did a big stupid thing." Jiu Niang gently rubbed Zhu Ying's satin-like hair, only to feel that a heart was like being immersed in warm spring water, calm and comfortable, "When you marry Ah Shou, my mother will go to your house to stay for two days when she has nothing to do, don't bother me." I'm tired of seeing your father's old face! ”

Zhu Ying suddenly burst out laughing: "Okay, good!" When Ah Shou and I have a child, it will be lively at that time! ”

Even if Jiu Niang didn't care about those secular rituals, she couldn't help but be stunned at this time.

Zhu Ying: Is this still ...... How dare you say it!

The daughters of other families are often shy when they hear the marriage contract, and some people even look at each other with the man, for fear of provoking the tongue, and leave in a hurry after a quick glance at each other, where is Zhu Ying so calm? It's just that whether it is her, Concubine Yu, or the emperor, they all seem to have such a cool temperament, and even Zhu Jing, who has always been more introverted, has always been direct in matters between men and women.

Therefore, no matter who Zhu Ying's daughter is, it is not surprising that she has such a temperament. On the contrary, it is Princess Yongping, who has such a delicate and thoughtful sensitivity, which seems to be a bit similar to her and Concubine Yu, and the coldness in her bones is also a little similar to them, but it is too subtle.

People live for a lifetime, and they have to fight when they should fight!

Thinking of this, Jiu Niang smiled helplessly, and then said softly: "When your eldest brother and second brother get married and have children, and you and Ah Shou also have children, this family will be really lively." At that time, do you want your children to learn literature or martial arts? ”

"It's all right! It's best to be good at archery and horse riding, and be able to be proficient in arithmetic like Ah Shou, this is the origin of family learning! Zhu Ying continued on the topic of Jiu Niang with great interest, completely forgetting to ask about the topic of her original life experience - of course, she was actually not very interested in the legendary escape of her mother and Concubine Yu, not to mention, it should be their hidden pain.

In this way, Jiuniang accompanied Zhu Ying to have a particularly long dinner. Fortunately, the main dish is copper hot pot, the charcoal fire is enough, and the water is constantly added, but it will not be cold to the heart. When the meal was finished, she stopped Zhu Ying, who was still going to see Mrs. Tai, and called Zhan Jin and Liuyin to come in and wait for someone to wash and go to bed.

Seeing Zhu Ying lying down on the bed, she personally folded the quilt and sat with her until she made an even breathing sound before leaving.

When she came to Mrs. Tai's Qing'an Hall, it was already the moontop treetops. Seeing that Li's mother was still guarding the door, and the lights were still on in the house, she stepped forward to ask and learned that her mother-in-law really did not go to bed, so she naturally knew in her heart. Sure enough, after Li's mother's report, as soon as she entered the house, she heard Mrs. Tai's voice: "Is Yingying okay?" ”

"She's just mad at us!" Jiu Niang saw that Mrs. Tai was crooked on the bed, leaning on the big pillow behind her, looking very tired, but waiting for her to come, so she simply stepped forward and retold the conversation between herself and Zhu Ying just now. Seeing that Mrs. Tai really showed a relieved expression, she said with a smile: "I knew that Yingying would not be obsessed." ”

"yes, she has a big heart." Mrs. Tai breathed a sigh of relief, and then said thoughtfully, "I don't know who sent the eldest prince and the second prince to the Wenhua Hall this time to perform this monkey show that is a complete joke." ”

Jiu Niang raised her eyebrows, and suddenly said: "Mother, I don't think it's a joke, maybe I just want to never suffer in the future!" ”
