Chapter 389: Cousin
They went to Kuizhou, and they should have arrived now. {First Reading}" Li Shimin rarely accompanied the eldest grandson queen to gossip together, and the childish slaves, sons, and Princess Hengshan, who had just turned two years old, also obediently gathered around, roasting the fire, and playing.
"Kuizhou?" Empress Eldest Sun hugged her youngest daughter lightly, glanced up at Li Shimin, and sighed softly: "So far away, it seems that these two girls are determined to spend the New Year outside." At the end of this year, there is no Yuzhang in the palace, and I am afraid that it will be a lot more deserted. And I haven't seen her for so long, without her being happy by her side, the concubine's heart has always seemed very empty. ”
"Yes," Li Shimin took a sip of warm tea, and sighed: "But since she likes it, let her go, it's not a way to trap her in the palace all day long, as long as they are not in danger outside." ”
If it weren't for the fear that Yu Zhang would be sick in the palace, Li Shimin would not be willing to let his baby daughter stay away during the Chinese New Year.
"That's what the emperor said. It's just that the concubines still can't help but worry, and the few women of them are wandering outside like this, which is finally reassuring. The eldest grandson's expression was a little gloomy, if it weren't for the fact that she couldn't look at Yu Zhang's haggard and melancholy appearance before, she wouldn't have put forward the idea of letting her go out of the palace to play, the pain in Yu Zhang's child's heart, she, as a mother, was also clear in her heart.
Twenty years old, in the eyes of many people, is already an old girl, even if she can get married, she will inevitably be disliked by others, not to mention that she can't have children, a woman who can't give birth is married out, in her husband's family. It's hard to live comfortably.
The saying that the mother is more expensive than the son, and the mother is more expensive than the son, is not only applicable to the palace, but also in those large families.
So. Although Li Shimin and Empress Changsun both said that they wanted to find a good husband for Yuzhang, it would be difficult to find a happy one.
It's the kid from the Gongsun family before, although he was very infatuated. The character and temperament are also very much in line with the wishes of Li Shimin and Empress Changsun, but this kind of thing is not enough just infatuation, Gongsun Mansion is a family, and it is still a single generation, and it is inevitable to continue the incense. If Yuzhang really marries into the Gongsun Mansion, it is difficult for the eldest grandson queen to imagine. Yuzhang will be treated by his in-laws and grandson Helan in the future.
The influence of children on a woman, the eldest grandson queen has a deep understanding, not to mention herself, just those childless and daughterless concubines in the palace are enough to make people feel cold. Empress Changsun didn't want Yuzhang to suffer such suffering and cold reception.
"Around them, there are people secretly protecting them, and the queen doesn't have to worry." Li Shimin comforted Empress Changsun softly: "Those secret guards will regularly send back the music about Ru'er and them to the palace, and I will ask Li Ran to give instructions and let them send them directly to the queen." ”
"Well, thank you, Your Majesty!" Empress Eldest Sun nodded slightly at Li Shimin, and seeing that Hengshan in her arms was already asleep, she gently handed her over to the palace maid on the side to place on the couch.
"Kuizhou has been taken care of by Di Zhixun in the past few years," Li Shimin gently looked at his little daughter's cute sleeping appearance, and said softly to Empress Changsun: "The Di family and the Su family are world friends, they go to the state this time, and the little girl of the Su family will definitely go to Di Mansion to visit, so that when the year is closed, they will finally have a place to settle down, and they will not be too lonely." ”
"In this way, the concubine will be relieved." Empress Changsun showed a hint of comfort in her eyes, and saw that Li Shimin's tea bowl was empty, so she got up and poured another bowl for Li Shimin.
"Oh, that's right," put down the teapot and sat down lightly, Empress Changsun seemed to think of something again, and said to Li Shimin: "After the New Year, Wu Mei wants to go back to his hometown and province to worship his father, and Qian'er also wants to follow to see, I don't know what the emperor means?" ”
"Go home to save relatives, worship the ancestors, this is the right place, Qian'er is willing to go with her, let him go, these months, Qian'er has been busy with official business, and has taken care of a lot of errands for me, and he is not idle for a moment, and he has the opportunity to go out for a walk. Li Shimin picked up the tea bowl and said softly: "It's just that the crown princess has just become pregnant, so you should be more careful between actions." ”
"Well, the emperor is right." Empress Eldest Sun nodded with a smile, and from Li Shimin's words, she could already hear that Li Shimin was now very satisfied with the prince's recent performance. Seeing that her son has the ability to make a living, how can the eldest grandson queen, who is a mother, be unhappy.
However, while being happy, the eldest grandson queen also had a feeling of sudden dream, half a year ago, when she was seriously ill and the prince was still enough, how could she have thought that she and the prince would have such a day?
one.
The name of the benefactor once again appeared in the mind of the eldest grandson queen, while feeling happy and satisfied, she was also more and more grateful to Liu Yiyi, the miracle doctor, if there was no Liu Divine Doctor, not only her, I am afraid that even the prince has been dead for a long time.
"Miss, don't practice it, it's too boring to write these things." Basho had a bitter face, holding a brush in his hand, and looked at their young lady with a pleading expression, and at the same time kept cursing viciously at Liu Yiyi in his heart. Eating half a fly, eating fish bones right in the throat, stepping on that or something while walking, anyway, nothing good.
"No way!" Su Chenxi put his hands behind his back and said to Basho very resolutely: "If you don't finish practicing, you won't be allowed to sleep tonight!" ”
"But, Miss, I've been practicing for almost ten days, and the words I write are not the same as before, and Liu Yi's method has no effect at all," Basho put down the brush, rubbed his little hands lightly, looked at their young lady pitifully, and said softly: "Miss, look, my hands are frozen and swollen, painful and itchy, I really can't practice, Miss, you can do well, let's not practice anymore, okay?" ”
Looking at his somewhat swollen little hands, Basho cursed at Liu Yiyi again in his heart.
Since the last time they separated from Luo Bingwang in the Yellow Crane Tower, Basho was forced by their young lady to usher in her miserable life during this time, practicing calligraphy, and writing some boring simple strokes, in the carriage during the day, in the guest room at night, in addition to eating and sleeping, there is almost no moment's rest, so that the little girl Basho is now even thinking of death.
"You, okay, okay, go rest for a while," Su Chenxi was still no match for Basho's pitiful eyes, and his heart softened suddenly.
"Thank you, Miss!" Almost jumping with joy, Basho trotted to Su Chenxi's side, stretched out his hand and roasted it on the stove in front of Su Chenxi, and after grabbing the pen for so long, her hand was really a little stiff.
"If you suffer hardship, you will become a master, and you can't stand it after suffering so much, how can you achieve anything in the future?" Su Chenxi glanced at Basho, shook his head lightly, and said, "I think when my grandfather taught me calligraphy, he was much stricter than I am with you now. ”
"Miss," Basho rubbed his little hands lightly, and said to Su Chenxi: "Basho is just a little girl, laundry and cooking, combing hair and dressing up, waiting for Miss is my duty, what's the use of practicing this?" ”
"And," Basho gritted his teeth and complained in a low voice, "Yanagichi's stroke practice doesn't have any effect at all, it's completely torturous!" ”
"It doesn't work, it's because you're too stupid to complain about others!" A childish voice came from the door, and then, the maid pushed the door, followed Li Ruyi, came in from the outside, looked at the banana and said provocatively: "If Mr. Liu's teaching method is invalid, how did that Luo Bingwang practice it?" Su Gongzi said earlier that people have only practiced for half a year and have already entered the room, and they have everyone's demeanor. ”
"Little man!" Li Ru seemed to turn his head and scolded the little maid, and asked him to stay on the side honestly, listening to the two little girls bickering every day, and her head was bigger twice.
"Okay, you can go and continue practicing, if it still doesn't work after another half a month, I won't force you anymore." Su Chenxi stood up, knocked the banana back to the table again, and then lightly arched his hand to Li Ruru, inviting him to sit in front of the stove together.
"In two days, we will arrive at the Fengjie ground," Li Ruru glanced at Basho with a smile, and said softly to Su Chenxi, "I don't know what Brother Su has planned?" ”
"Naturally, I went to the Changshi Mansion first," Su Chenxi opened his mouth and said to Li Ruru: "Settle down there, it will be more lively at the end of the year, but after arriving at the Di Mansion, we are afraid that we will have to resume women's clothes, and Uncle Di should not be able to see us dressed like this." ”
"It's okay, in Fengjie, no one should have seen me," Li Ru nodded lightly as if he didn't care, and then asked Su Chenxi softly, "It's just, my identity?" ”
"You are a distant cousin of mine," Su Chenxi opened his mouth to come, obviously already having a plan in his heart: "Although Uncle Di is a family friend of my family, he is not very clear about some relatives in Su Mansion, saying that he is a cousin, there should be no problem." ”
