Bai Shi hurriedly pulled her up and said, "What are you doing here?" Yu'er, I treat you as my own sister, in the future, you can't be so polite to me. ”

Yu'er said: "Madame is sympathetic to me, I can't be ignorant of the rules." ”

The flush on his face did not dissipate, and he snorted a few times, looking like he wanted to say something but couldn't open his mouth.

Bai Shi noticed it, shook her hand again, and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it!" ”

Yu'er's face turned even redder and said, "Then I'll say it...... Madam, can you ...... this thing you just mentioned? It ...... Fast...... A little bit? ”

When it comes to the last few words, the sound is like a mosquito and a fly, almost inaudible.

Bai Shi laughed softly: "Oh, you little girl, aren't you a little spring in such a hurry to marry yourself?" ”

Yu'er was so ashamed that she almost cried: "No......"

Bai touched Yu'er's face and said with a smile: "Yo, this little face is hot and almost on fire!" Okay, I'm not kidding you. I'll tell Lord Belle about this tonight, don't worry! Well, do you have anything else to worry about? ”

Yu'er's voice was so low that it was almost inaudible: "I'm afraid...... One day, the Queen Mother suddenly pointed me out on a whim......"

Bai Shi let out a soft "oh", she understood.

Yu'er continued: "In this kind of matter, the Queen Mother is different from the Queen Mother, and she will not ask us what we mean in advance......"

Bai said: "You are afraid that the Queen Mother will refer to it, you don't like it, or." The body is not good. Right? ”

Yu'er whispered, "Like it or not." I dare not say; However, if a man is not in good health, I will ...... for the rest of his life I've seen this kind of situation a lot, and I'm afraid to think about it......"

What Yu'er said, Bai can actually "empathize" the most. Her own husband was sick and weak, and died young. If it weren't for Guan Zhuofan, the little uncle, who was suddenly "reborn", the rest of her life would have fallen into the miserable situation that Yu'er wanted to say and stopped.

Bai's heart was gloomy for a while, his face was feverish, and he had mixed tastes, and he didn't know what the situation was?

She felt Yu'er's little hand trembling slightly in her hand, so she gently pressed her hand and said softly: "Yu'er, I understand what you said." ”

In fact. What Yu'er said, the Bai family didn't necessarily understand 100%.

Before Guan Zhuofan's "transformation". A young widow like the Guan family, a young widow who has fallen into a downcast, theoretically still has the possibility of remarrying. But once the queen mother or the emperor "refers to marriage", no matter what happens to her husband's family, the widow has no possibility of remarrying.

The higher the status of a woman, the heavier the constraints of moral rules. Many married princesses and Gege have encountered this situation, they are noble in front of them, and they cry all night after them. Many of them, at a young age, died of depression. Yu'er is in the deep palace, I don't know how many such tragedies I have heard and witnessed?

Also, Yu'er also has a deeper understanding of Cixi's temperament than Bai.

Cixi does have the problem of doing what she wants, as Yu'er said "on a whim". The marriage she refers to is either out of her own pleasure or out of political considerations, in short, she will not really consider the woman's opinions and interests. This is indeed a world of difference from Ci'an. As a result, whether it is the original time and space or this time and space, the marriages handled by the Queen Mother have many resentments and few good couples; There are many tragedies and few comedies.

In the original time and space, Cixi's arranged marriage, the most famous couple is of course the Dezong couple. As we all know, lions are not verbose.

Prior to this, King Gong's eldest daughter, the "big girl" mentioned in this book, Princess Feng Rongshou, was pointed out by Cixi to Zhiduan, the son of Jingshou. Jing Shou was the only one among the "Eight Ministers" who was "upright" and did not attach himself to Su Shun; Zhiduan is also handsome, modest and studious, and Cixi feels that this is a good marriage.

However, neither Princess Rongshou herself nor Prince Gong of the Yue family nor his wife disliked this husband because Zhiduan's "body and bones" were not good.

But since the "above" has already been "pointed", the ministers can only "thank God".

Sure enough, within a few years, Zhiduan died of illness, and Princess Rongshou became a widow at a young age. This "success" will be "completed" for a lifetime.

It should be noted that at that time, King Gong was at the pinnacle of power, and Princess Rongshou was Cixi's true favorite and confidant - Princess Rongshou still ended up like this, let alone others.

The above marriage tragedy between Dezong and Rongshou has naturally not happened in this time and space. But Cixi's expression in this regard is already "sharp". Yu'er, who waits by her side every day, has a sense of "precariousness".

Bai Shi pondered for a while, and said: "This time I went to Tianjin, it is a good opportunity, I will ask Lord Belle to arrange for you to meet—you can meet a few more!" You have made eye contact with each other, and after returning from Tianjin, we will ask the Queen Mother to make a decree to marry. The Queen Mother will definitely be inseparable from you for half a year and a year, but it doesn't matter, we can get engaged first, and wait until the Queen Mother can let you out of the palace, and then calmly do happy events! ”

It's really thoughtful, and it couldn't be more thoughtful.

Yu'er had tears in her eyes, and she was about to kneel down again, but she was held back by Bai's Shengsheng: "Yu'er, don't be like this again, just keep this matter in your heart." ”

When I arrived at Wicker Alley, the lights were already on, and the meal was naturally over. When Bai got out of the car, as soon as he entered the mansion, the first thing he did was to order the kitchen to make a large table full of dishes for Yu'er alone. Bai Shi smiled and said to Yu'er: "Even if you eat with your belly open, you are not afraid of hurting your stomach - Lord Belle is not the Queen Mother, if you talk to him, you will go to the thatched house if you are in a hurry, and there will be no obstacle at all." ”

Guan Zhuofan is having a party outside today, looking at the big self-striking bell that has landed, there should still be a good time before Lord Belle returns home. Bai said, "I don't dare to increase the amount in the palace, and I haven't eaten enough, so I have to eat a little more", so he sat next to Yu'er, smiled, and watched her "open belly" and gobble it up; Occasionally take a bite and a half by yourself.

Bai Shi said with a smile while serving vegetables to Yu'er: "Don't worry, you eat slowly, don't choke." Today, King Rui has a big birthday, and Lord Belle went to celebrate his birthday, and he didn't come back so soon. It's also a coincidence, if the old man's Qianqiu is yesterday, then Fujin is going to feast the princes and relatives today, and I have to deal with errands, so I can't accompany you. ”

Yu'er looked up and smiled gratefully, but couldn't speak—her mouth was stuffed with dishes.

This meal, until the little belly is bulging, Yu'er stopped eating.

Tea after a meal.

Since entering the palace, this is the first time that Yu'er has sat and drunk the tea brought by others.

Not long after, the next person came to report that Lord Belle had returned home.

When Yu'er heard this, she immediately put down the teacup in her hand, stood up, and stood with her hands down.

Bai Shi also stood up, but made a downward gesture to Yu'er, and said with a smile: "You sit down first." When Lord Belle returned home, he had to take a bath - this was a habit he couldn't shake. Seeing that you are not here in the flower hall, you must be in the study. Well, sit down, I'll go say hello to him. ”

Yu'er smiled wryly and said, "Yes." Waiting for Bai Shi to leave the flower hall, he sat down again. However, the sitting position has changed: hands on knees, buttocks only next to the edge of the chair.

About the time of the meal, Bai Shi came back, smiled and said, "Okay, let's go see Lord Baylor." ”

Completely to Yu'er's own surprise, her heartbeat suddenly and inexplicably faster.

She followed behind Bai, and the closer she got to the study, the faster her heart beated, and as she walked, she heard her own heartbeat.

When I arrived at the door of the study, my mouth was dry, my heart was like a deer, and the whole person was about to collapse.

The lights were dim, and walking in front, Bai Shi did not find any abnormality in Yu'er. If she saw Yu'er's face, she would definitely be shocked.

What's going on?!

No, it's not that Yu'er fell in love with Guan Zhuofan or anything.

Afterwards, Yu'er slowly figured out why she was suddenly so nervous: the man in the room was the most powerful man in the entire Qing Dynasty. And he is probably the only person in the world who really knows the true relationship between him and the Queen Mother.
