The afternoon sun shines through the lattice-shaped glass windows, transforming into soft multicolored light and falling on the ground, adding a bit of warmth and vitality to this decrepit room. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After arranging the aftermath, the Empress Dowager Wenzhuang glanced at Eunuch Qiu and said softly: "Call Nian Yao over." The old eunuch retreated as ordered.
Taking advantage of the fact that the two of them hadn't come yet, Qin Lei said softly: "About the matter of the father...... emperor"
The old queen mother waved her hand slowly and said, "Don't worry about this matter, your second brother has his own opinions." After saying that, he closed his eyes tiredly, and his breathing was heavy and muddy, which sounded heart-wrenching.
Qin Lei sat quietly to the side and did not speak again.
After a while, the sound of small footsteps sounded, and Qin Lei involuntarily looked towards the door, and saw Eunuch Qiu coming in with the more slim girl Nian Yao. I haven't seen her for a year, and this girl hasn't changed much in appearance, but she has a heartbreaking resentment temperament.
After seeing the prince in a proper manner, Nian Yao knelt in front of the Queen Mother.
"Girl, how old are you?" Wen Zhuang opened his eyes slightly and looked at Nian Yao Dao lovingly.
"Mother-in-law, Nian Yao is twenty." Nian Yao replied softly.
"Double ten years, this is a big girl in the people...... Wenzhuang groaned, looked at Qin Lei and said: "Grandson, grandma is going to let Nian Yao go with you......"
Qin Lei nodded quietly, but Nian Yao was surprised: "Mother-in-law, you don't want me anymore?" What did Nian Yao do wrong? ”
"Silly boy, where do you want to go," Empress Dowager Wenzhuang shook her head and smiled: "You haven't done anything wrong, and your mother-in-law won't want you, but you can't stay in the palace for the rest of your life." ”
"Nian Yao is willing to stay in the palace for the rest of her life and serve her mother-in-law for the rest of her life." Miss Nian Yao said with a discolored face.
"No way!" The old queen mother coughed violently for a while, Qin Lei hurriedly stepped forward to caress her back, and it took a long time to ease up and say: "The old country is three thousand miles, and the deep palace is twenty years." The best thing for a girl is this youthful youth, if she is always trapped in the forbidden palace, it is just one more white-headed palace maid. ”
"Mother-in-law is serious," Nian Yao said with two lines of tears on her cheeks, pitiful like wildflowers in the wind: "Nian Yao suffered a great disaster, and both parents died. Heaven and earth are great, but there is no home for me. Only by her mother-in-law's side, Nian Yao can forget the loneliness in her heart, if you have to let me go, then let me fall into my hair. "Although age has changed and temperament has changed, that stubborn character never seems to change.
The old queen mother smiled helplessly, tilted her head to look at Qin Lei and said, "What do you think?" ”
Qin Lei couldn't help but look embarrassed and said, "I have to go back first and ask for instructions......
"Excuse me?" The old queen mother smiled and said, "Who do you need to ask Prince Wucheng for?" ”
"I guess not." Qin Lei said like a mosquito: "But I have promised that I can't enter the house anymore." A manly man, you can't go back on your word, can you? ”
"No need to ask!" The Empress Dowager Wenzhuang was obviously displeased: "A big man can't be the master of his own family, and I am ashamed of you." Saying that, he waved his hand and said: "Take Nian Yao back, or keep it for yourself, or help her find a good family, you can do it with your conscience, I don't care anyway." Then he turned around and lay down down, turning his back to the servant in the room.
Qin Lei called 'Imperial Grandmother' a few more times, but he never got a response from the old queen mother, so he had to scratch his head and withdraw from the warm pavilion with the two.
"How's that okay?" As soon as he got out of the room, Eunuch Qiu sighed.
"What's there to worry about?" Qin Lei stroked his forehead and said, "Isn't it just more pairs of chopsticks to eat?" So saying, he strode out.
Walking out of the elder for a while, but he didn't hear the movement behind him, Qin Lei looked back and saw that Nian Yao's girl was still standing at the door, without the slightest intention of following.
He had no choice but to stand still, turned around and beckoned, "Let's go." ”
Eunuch Qiu also persuaded her on the side: "Nian Yao, the prince called you, hurry up." ”
Nian Yao shook her head, lowered her head and said, "Nian Yao has her own place to go, so the prince doesn't have to be embarrassed." ”
Qin Lei said in his heart: "This little girl's skin is quite twisted! In addition, he was laughed at by the old queen mother just now, and he didn't want to sigh anymore, so he turned to Eunuch Qiu and said, "Old Qiu, are you a palace maid with thick legs and a big stick?" ”
Eunuch Qiu didn't know what he was going to do, but he still nodded and said, "Of course, someone has to do heavy work." ”
"Okay, get me four." Qin Lei said indignantly.
After a while, four tall and sturdy servant women really appeared in front of Qin Lei, kowtowed, and said, "What does the prince command?" ”
"Drive Miss Nian Yao to my car, don't hurt her." Qin Lei left an irresponsible order, then turned around and went out of Cining Palace, no matter what kind of movement came out behind him, he didn't look back.
The four strong women grabbed Nian Yao's hands and feet, and easily escorted her to Qin Lei's car, and Eunuch Qiu followed, and said to Qin Lei with care: "Lord Wang, you are merciful, don't abuse Miss Nian Yao, she is the heart of the Queen Mother." ”
Waving his hand impatiently, Qin Lei glared and said, "She's my cousin, what can I do with her?" As he spoke, he patted the shoulder of the eunuch Qiu and said, "I'm here to discipline the emperor's grandmother, so as not to annoy my mother-in-law by my future husband's family...... See you. As soon as the curtain was lowered, the black-clothed guard drove away.
Looking at the direction in which Qin Lei disappeared, Eunuch Qiu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Really...... Man. ”
The carriage passed through the palace, and it was quiet all around, and there were only two people in the carriage, Qin Lei and Nian Yao.
Miss Nian Yao curled up in the corner of the car and looked at Qin Lei in horror.
Qin Lei saw that there was no one around, and he didn't put that bullish shelf, but changed his amiable expression and said: "Don't be afraid, Fang Cai is just pretending, otherwise where will my prince's face go?" ”
Looking at Prince Wucheng, who turned his face like a book, Nian Yao looked distrustful, but his body was moving quietly in a small way, and it turned out that he was pinched and hurt.
"You don't believe me?" Qin Lei smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, Lu Yao knows that horsepower has been in people's hearts for a long time, sooner or later you will know that I am actually a very casual ...... Oh no, very easy-going people. Qin Lei rubbed his hands and said, "Don't be afraid, come and laugh at a ......."
Looking at his weird appearance, how could Nian Yao laugh, it would be good if he didn't cry directly.
Seeing that he couldn't laugh at her, Qin Lei had no choice but to scratch his head in resignation, and said with a sneer: "You're tired too, go to sleep." "Nian Yao said in his heart: 'Who can sleep on this sunny day?' But Qin Lei had already closed his eyes and snored slightly.
"You just pretend......" Nian Yao said indignantly in her heart.
She didn't know that Qin Lei was really asleep...... He was so tired.
Taking advantage of his closed eyes, Nian Yao secretly looked at Qin Lei, compared with the slightly childish little prince five years ago, he obviously had a earth-shaking change, not because he had a neat short beard, but a kind of mature self-confidence that has been refined by time and tribulation, exuding from the inside out, that kind of noble and calm bearing, can make any woman in the world feel spring.
But Nian Yao is an exception, although she was born poor, ill-fated, and experienced hardships and misfortunes, Nian Yao never thought about accepting anyone's alms or forcing anyone to accept them...... From the day he ruthlessly sent her to the palace, she cut off the love thread and would never be tempted by this man again......
Noble is only because of the heart, not by the birth.
As soon as the carriage left the palace gate, someone knocked on the window of the car and called out urgently: "Prince, prince......" Qin Lei woke up suddenly, and said, "What's wrong?" ”
"The Zhuang family sent a message, and Shi Meng seemed to ...... It's almost gone. Outside the car window was a voice of Gouge: "He said he wanted to see you one last time." ”
Lifting the curtain suddenly, Qin Lei said with a pale face: "Don't hurry up and get over quickly!" ”
"Drive!" The black-clothed guard who drove desperately urged the carriage, and the four black horses galloped like lightning under the hooves of the wind on the crowded street. Although the driver is highly skilled, he does not know how many pavings he knocked off and how many pedestrians he frightened along the way.
This was something that Qin Lei hated in the past, but now he couldn't care about it, and even though the carriage began to make a 'squeak' moan, he still kept urging the driver to go quickly.
In just half an hour, Qin Lei arrived at the door of Shi Meng's house, and this section of the road normally takes a quarter and a half to walk.
"Woo ......" The coachman suddenly tightened the reins of his horse, and the four horses stopped with a roar, and suddenly their limbs went limp, their mouths foamed, and they all stopped eating.
Glancing at Miss Nian Yao, who was vomiting a lot, Qin Lei wanted to smile apologetically, but the expression on his face was already stiff, and he couldn't squeeze out even a trace of a smile.
With a grit of teeth, Qin Lei jumped out of the carriage and dropped a sentence: "Find a few thick-legged and big-legged maids, and help the girl in the car to rest." Then he strode into the stone house.
"Lord Wang......" Zhuang Die'er, who was brought by pear blossoms and rain, hurriedly led the mansion to greet her.
"Sister-in-law is exempt." Qin Lei said anxiously: "What happened to Shi Meng, wasn't it good before he came?" In fact, he knew best in his heart that several serious injuries on Shi Meng's body had injured his internal organs, and under today's medical conditions, there was no possibility of healing. Especially after thousands of miles of travel, it is estimated that Shi Meng can only rely on a heart fire to support until now.
Zhuang Die'er's face was like gold paper, and she sobbed: "Mr. Gongsun is curing inside, he said ......" and then hid his face and cried, causing the family to cry together.
Qin Lei frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Take me in to see him." Zhuang Die'er stopped crying, looked back at the miserable subordinates, and said softly: "Lord Wang, please." ”
"Sister-in-law, please." Qin Lei stretched out his hand and asked Zhuang Die'er to lead the way in front of the head, and followed her to the main house in the backyard.
As soon as I entered, I smelled a strong smell of medicine, and I saw Shi Meng, who had been thin into a handful of bones, lying quietly on the big bed, Gongsun Jian stood aside with a solemn expression, and saluted Qin Lei: "The prince is here." ”
Qin Lei nodded, strode over, leaned over and sat on the edge of the bed, holding Shi Meng's skinny right hand, wanting to say something comforting, but he couldn't help choking up and couldn't say anything.
"Lord Wang......" Shi Meng smiled in a faint voice, "I've finally seen you for the last time." ”
"What nonsense......" Qin Lei clenched his teeth, not wanting to cry.
"I know my own business." Shi Meng shook his head and said, "If I hadn't wanted to come back to see my son and see Die'er, I wouldn't have been able to survive now." ”
"I hurt you......" Qin Lei hid his face and shook his head, and said in a hoarse voice: "If I hadn't pretended to be a hero and always put myself in danger, you wouldn't have been injured by this......"
"What happened on the battlefield?" Shi Meng's pale face swelled up with a trace of abnormal redness, everyone in the house knew that he had returned to the light, Shi Meng's voice suddenly became louder, and he grinned: "The parents who gave birth to me, but the prince knocked Shi Meng out of a person's appearance, and my cheap life was originally your ......"
Seeing that Qin Lei was still full of sadness, Shi Meng coughed a few times, and pretended to smile easily: "Mengzi has to thank the prince, if you didn't perform that operation on me, I wouldn't be able to come back." ”
"Don't talk about this, I know better than anyone else what's going on." Qin Lei shook his head suddenly and said: "Your time is precious, if you have anything to instruct, say it quickly, if you can do it or not, I will help you do it!" ”
"Okay......" Shi Meng nodded and smiled, and said to Zhuang Die'er, who was crying on the side: "Die'er, you bring all three children here." Zhuang Die'er nodded, and went down tremblingly towards Qin Leifu.
Looking at his wife's back greedily, Shi Meng smiled and said: "The prince will tell you the truth, when you assigned me this marriage, I was unwilling from the bottom of my heart, and I always thought that I would be a character in the future, and it would be too unseemly to marry a kiln sister as the main house." ”
Qin Leiqiang laughed and said: "What's wrong with Sister Yao, you are still from a family, the key depends on your character and ability." ”
Shi Meng grinned and said: "Yes, to this day, this is the place where I am most grateful to the prince, since I got married, some people know that the cold knows the hot, and some people are worried, she is still so capable, and the family business is prosperous, and she can't spend it in a few lifetimes." ”
Qin Lei nodded, and said astringently: "Yes, everyone is very envious of you, and Mr. Guantao also said: 'Marrying a wife should marry Zhuang Die'." ”
Shi Meng smiled proudly, bared his teeth and said, "I know that the old boy is interesting to my daughter-in-law." Hearing that Zhuang Die'er was about to come in, Shi Meng hurriedly said, "Lord Wang, promise me something." ”
Qin Lei held his hand tightly and said in a low voice, "Say it." ”
"When Die'er finishes mourning for me, let her remarry......" As he spoke, Shi Meng's tears snapped down, and he scolded with his mouth in his mouth: "How can I think about it, I will be sad to die." ”
Qin Lei frowned and said, "Don't worry, even if you don't remarry, no one will dare to bully them." ”
"Of course I know this, the prince is the most protective," Shi Meng said with a smile: "But my daughter-in-law is only twenty-two this year, and there are still decades of good time, how can I bear to let her stay widowed for the rest of her life?" ”
Seeing the graceful Zhuang Die'er and the two maids, walking from the front yard with their three children in their arms, Qin Lei had no choice but to nod quickly and said, "Who to marry?" ”
"Pavilion Tao ......" Shi Meng said in a sullen voice: "I am alive and he has the heart of a thief but not the courage of a thief, but when I kick my legs, he will definitely have a spring heart turmoil, rather than being quiet under the spring, it is better to be an adult!" ”
At this time, Zhuang Die'er led three children in, she held her son, and the two maids each held a pink and cute little girl. As soon as the older one saw Shi Meng, he stretched out his hand to hug him, and cried in his mouth: "I want to be ...... big" The younger one was less than two years old, and he didn't remember Shi Meng's appearance at all, but when he heard his sister crying, he also cried loudly.
