Chapter 403: Old Relatives (I)
February 26, if you want to say special, that is, spring has really arrived, the green grass blows like hair, and the colorful flowers weave lichens. The imperial capital seems to have experienced the longest winter year, and now due to the lengthening of the day, all streets, east and west markets, are showing long-lost prosperity.
Listening to such a noise, on this day, Lan Sheng entered the palace on the order of the Empress Dowager.
"Although the mourning family knew that he had no intention of doing mundane things, otherwise he would not like to wander outside, and he would not marry a wife, but seeing that he came back and opened a delicate water pavilion, and there was still half a year of stability throughout the year, I thought that he at least did not think about it as much as he did when he was young......"
Lan Sheng accompanied the Empress Dowager to sit on the fence of Xifeng Palace, watching the palace maids busy covering her with light fur, serving warm soup, and actually bringing Ju'an's original copper wire stove lamp to light the fire and heat it, and couldn't help but feel a little sense of achievement.
But she didn't show this little pride, and sat upright, "The Queen Mother, don't be too sad, your body is important." â
Baihu boat entered Tianxuan Mountain, Lan Sheng knew, but the Empress Dowager didn't know. However, there have always been many legends of zĂ i's ascension to immortality in this time and space, and it seems that Bai Huzhou pursued this realm regardless of his youth when he was young, so everyone's understanding of his sudden disappearance is not too far from the truth.
The Empress Dowager and everyone's opinion are the same, and they feel that this only maiden nephew finally left behind the mundane dust and went to the mountains to cultivate the road to find immortals. Although there are many legends, Taoism is even the national religion of Darong, but whether you really believe in your heart, that is, the benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise. At least, the Empress Dowager sighed for a long time, and there were ridiculous accusations from her nephew between her words.
Lan Sheng looked at the septuagenarian. When I first saw it, I was kind and noble. The grandmother, who is a little old and naughty, is indeed old after two rounds of white hair and black hair. Moreover, when the old man learned of the sudden disappearance of Bai Huzhou, he immediately fainted and lay down for more than half a month. At this time, the serious illness was just recovering, and the palace maids were all very nervous. I just don't know, what is the matter with specially summoning her?
Although he did not have a wife, he was also a father with sons and daughters. There was no warning beforehand. didn't even bring a piece of clothing, so he left a letter that was out of the ordinary, so that the mourning family inevitably wondered if there was anything else. I heard that you happened to go to the Linglong Water Pavilion that day, and you talked to him for a while. So please ask. "The new emperor and the new empress dowager are domineering. But it won't move the queen mother. So she still has eyes and ears, and she's not slow to get news.
Lan Sheng didn't pretend to be completely ignorant, but said. "Don't hide it from the Queen Mother, Uncle Bai has a lot of words and deeds between the lines. I thought he was going to visit a friend, but he did it a lot, and he drank a lot of alcohol, so I didn't pay attention to it. Later, the Linglong Water Pavilion was in a mess, and I found his book, only to know that he had abandoned the dust and sought the Tao. I was so annoyed that if I had understood earlier, I should have tried to persuade him. â
"Hearing you say this, it seems that he is really iron-hearted, and the mourning family still has a glimmer of hope, thinking that he is not guilty of such a foolish thing." The Empress Dowager nodded at the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief, "Pity his children, who have not yet grown up, have no mother to raise, and no father, they are no different from orphans." Huzhou has no wife, and he has no concubines to take care of the family, and usually leaves the lives of reliable and capable servants to take care of the children. As soon as he leaves, no children can inherit the operation of Linglong Water Pavilion, and the future arrangements will also become a problem. â
Lan Sheng comforted, "Uncle Bai often goes out, and he relies on the capable housekeepers to take care of the exquisite water pavilion, and the business is still good." I think Uncle Bai has been prepared for a long time, rather than leaving it to a concubine to take care of the children of different mothers, it is better to find a reliable and honest person who can be impartial. Besides, who would dare to bully these children? They're your mother's family. â
"How long can the mourning family live?" Her eyes were full of spring, but the Empress Dowager felt withered.
"There are still centenarians among the people." Coming from time and space where life expectancy is getting higher and higher, her first goal in this regard is to lead a group of people to be healthy to ninety first, "If the Empress Dowager can always maintain the spirit of sneaking out of the palace to see the Kao, she will definitely be able to hold five generations of grandchildren." First of all, don't be pessimistic. â
The Empress Dowager smiled for the first time since Lan was born, "The mourning family likes to talk to you." Your pair of Diao Feng's eyes, you never admit defeat, and you can see that people don't admit defeat. The mourning family was originally lively, but in the past few years, they have been a little depressed, forgetting that they used to be determined to be old and immortal. â
Lan Sheng glared and smiled, "It is worthy of being an ancestor, such a lofty ambition, how can we juniors compare, we must learn from you." â
The Empress Dowager laughed, and the spring finally shone into her heart. After a while, she was hungry straight, and let people pass on breakfast, and Lan Sheng, who had already eaten breakfast, had to accompany her to eat a second time, seeing that she especially loved to eat pickled sour dates, and laughed that she was going to give birth to a son.
Since this topic is mentioned, the old man inevitably thinks of what happened to Lan Sheng recently, "What happened in Xuanqing is not that the mourning family did not help you, but that the relationship between ancestors and grandchildren in the next generation is difficult to compare with the relationship between mother and son, although the emperor respects the mourning family, the imperial grandmother, but he can't listen to half a word of opposition." "Helped, but it didn't work.
Lan Sheng is already at ease with this matter, "Thank you Empress Dowager for your concern, Lan Sheng can think about it, he still has a life, and he will only know if his blessing is good or bad if he lives, but he can't just come to the palace to see you in the future, don't think about me." "After living in the royal family for a few years, I have a little likable mouth.
The Empress Dowager greatly praised her attitude, nodded and said again, "The mourning family looks at Feng'er, that child is still a caring person. He sent the new princess to Concubine Qi, saying that it sounded better, it was filial piety on behalf of the son, but in fact, it was a cold reception. Since Feng'er married you, she has won a hundred times as before, and she has the aura of her youth, which is the rarest comfort in the heart of the mourning family after the first emperor left. You can raise the fetus with peace of mind, if this fetus is a man, it is the little son of King Jin's mansion, and the mourning family will try their best to guarantee it. â
Lan Sheng didn't have this in mind, "Whether it is the son of the world or not, I guarantee that it must be your great-grandson or great-granddaughter." As long as you want to see the child, Lan Sheng is always available. Then his tone was coquettish, "Ancestor, you reward me with a jar of sour dates." â
For the sake of appetite, you can lower your breath and go to the side of your husband.
Although the price paid was "heavy" because of a chicken leg, the "mandarin duck bath" owed to a certain husband was not only forced to pay it back, but also bathed every day, until she complained that a layer of skin had been washed off, and a certain husband let her go. It has been quiet for half a month now, but she still feels pain all over her body when she thinks about it. However, she didn't learn to behave.
Especially recently, once I think of what to eat, I have to eat it, and I can't control it at all.
Today's first small change. (To be continued......)
