Chapter 446: Shocking Change (1)
Mrs. Tai still saluted steadily, and then got up and looked at the eldest princess.
The eldest princess looks like the Zheng family, she is beautiful and dignified, just looking at her appearance, she can't tell that she is a vicious person. was placed under house arrest in the courtyard for a year and did not see anyone, the eldest princess lost a lot of weight, and the rouge gouache could not hide her gloomy complexion.
At this time, the eldest princess was full of smiles, and her words were very intimate: "I have been sick for so long and have never left the house. My grandmother was worried about it and visited her from time to time. Now that I'm well, I want to come back to see my grandmother. ”
The eldest princess whitewashed the peace, and Mrs. Tai did not expose it, and smiled at her voice: "Niangniang has a heart, but I am disrespectful, so I accept it." ”
The eldest princess helped Mrs. Tai sit down, shushing the cold and asking for warmth. The topic quickly turned to the eldest prince: "...... My father and uncle led the troops to fight at the border pass, and the three brothers also went to the border pass. Now the house comes and goes, and it has to be supported by the young Shiro. His Royal Highness specially accompanied me back to the house, and told me that if there was anything in the house, just open my mouth with His Highness. ”
Mrs. Tai remained silent, smiled and dealt with the eldest princess: "The kindness of the mother and His Royal Highness, the old body has thanked you first." ”
"The old body is deaf and clear-sighted, and he is not confused. will definitely restrain the subordinates and personal soldiers in the house, and will never allow them to cause trouble. Just rest assured. ”
The eldest princess is not right-minded, and the eldest prince is not good at stubble. Before, because Emperor Xuanhe was angry, the eldest prince was very cold to the eldest princess.
Now the brothers of Pingguo have repeatedly made military exploits at the border pass, and the Pingguo Mansion has been rewarded, and the scenery is unlimited. At this time, the eldest prince remembered that this was his serious wife of the Yue family, and he was about to take care of it when he opened his mouth...... Hum!
These words are extremely hypocritical, and it is true that you want to take advantage of the situation!
The eldest princess was a little weak under the clear gaze of Mrs. Tai.
After being locked up for a year, she was almost suffocated. Now the battle situation at the border is very good, and there are many good news. The eldest prince took the initiative to see her and opened his mouth to accompany her back to her parents' house.
She knew the thoughts of the eldest prince, and she didn't dare or wanted to refuse.
In any case, she is the only daughter of the He family's generation and married into the heavenly family as a daughter-in-law. The scenery of the Pingguo Mansion is prominent, and she is in the mansion of the Great Prince, so she can stand firmly in peace and quiet.
The eldest princess cheered up and said with a smile: "The second brother and sister gave birth to a child, and I, who is an aunt, was sick before, and now I can finally see my nephew with my own eyes." ”
Mrs. Tai didn't stop her, and led the eldest princess to see the Wei family and see the child.
The eldest princess spent half a day at her mother's house, and only left after lunch.
Before leaving, the eldest princess held Mrs. Tai's hand, and whispered with red eyes: "Grandmother, I know that I did something wrong in the past. But now, I've tasted the bitter fruit. The second brother fought at the border pass, was born and died, and his mother is now 'recuperating' in the courtyard, and even his grandson can't see each other. ”
"Grandmother, I really know that I am wrong! In the future, please have mercy on my grandmother. Let me often go home to spend time with my grandmother. ”
Mrs. Tai looked at the eldest princess and said lightly: "If you want to go back to the house, I won't stop you." However, please remember that in the future, do not meddle in the affairs of the He family, and do not intercede for the Zheng family. Also, about His Royal Highness the Great Prince, don't open your mouth. ”
The Great Princess: "......"
The eldest princess's expression was a little stiff, and she wanted to argue for herself.
Mrs. Tai said: "The matter of establishing a reserve is related to the community. The emperor is sage, and he has his own decisions. Our He family is loyal, serving the court and being loyal to the emperor. It will never be mixed with the matter of establishing a reserve. If His Royal Highness the Great Prince has any other ideas, please dispel this idea as soon as possible! ”
This refusal was clearly and clearly stated, and there was no room for misunderstanding.
The eldest princess's face turned pale, her whole body trembled slightly, and a look of almost despair flashed in her eyes: "Grandmother, don't you care if I live or die?" ”
The eldest prince wanted to win over the Pingguo Mansion and specially accompanied her back to the He Mansion. If she returns in vain, if the eldest prince knows the attitude of the He family, she is afraid that her future life will be even more difficult.
A coldness flashed in Mrs. Tai's eyes, and she said slowly: "That's all I say." What the mother thinks, it's the mother's business. ”
……
The eldest princess left in despair.
Mrs. Tai sat alone in the inner hall for a long time, her face showing exhaustion.
Others only see the scenery of the Pingguo Mansion, but they don't know the taste of flowers cooking oil in the brocade fire.
A few months earlier, the border pass had been raided by Tatar cavalry and had been defeated. The Pingguo Mansion bore the brunt of the pressure and was under great pressure. She is calm on the surface, but her heart is like frying and roasting.
Now that the battle has been won, and the Son of Heaven has rewarded the Pingguo Mansion, her heart, which has been hanging for several months, has finally fallen slightly.
But that doesn't mean it's going to stop in the future. On the contrary, bigger and more troubles follow.
The He family has never been involved in the dispute between the emperor and the prince, and has stood in the court for many years, and has been stable and unmoving. But right now, Cheng Jinrong, who has not yet passed the door, is like a sister and brother to the six princes, and He Qi also has a close relationship with the six princes. I'm afraid of this turmoil, and I can't hide from it.
Mrs. Tai couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
At this moment, the sound of eager footsteps suddenly sounded outside the inner hall.
Mrs. Tai frowned slightly and looked over.
I saw that Zhu's steps were unsteady and his expression was frightened. Mrs. Tai's heart sank. Zhu's temperament is calm, even if He Dalang left Beijing to go to the border, he is not as out of shape as at this moment.
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Tai asked in a deep voice.
Zhu's face was pale, and his voice trembled: "The soldiers sent an urgent letter back, saying that the second uncle led the troops in an ambush. The second uncle was shot in the chest by an arrow from a sharpshooter in the Tatar cavalry, and was seriously wounded......"
Mrs. Huo Ran got up, and the sky was spinning in front of her. The subordinate held the handle of the chair stiffly, and his voice was surprisingly calm: "Let the personal soldier who delivered the letter come in, I will ask him personally!" ”
The generals led their troops into battle to kill the enemy, and they were inevitably injured. An arrow can be shot in the chest......
Mrs. Tai's body shook and forcibly stabilized.
Zhu stepped forward worriedly and grabbed Mrs. Tai's arm.
Soon, the soldiers who delivered the letter entered the inner hall.
This pro-soldier traveled day and night, running away from two horses, just to rush to the capital one step earlier and send the letter back to the Pingguo Mansion before the war report arrived.
The soldiers were bloodshot and about to kneel, but Mrs. Tai couldn't wait to open her mouth and ask, "How is Ah Yan's injury?" Is there a fear for your life? ”
The soldier had red eyes and a hoarse voice: "Mrs. Hui, the little one was ordered to go back to Beijing to deliver the letter, and it took twelve days to go all the way. When the little one left, the general was seriously injured and unconscious. It's not clear what happened to the small ones now. ”
The soldiers paused, and then told the second bad news: "The general was injured on the battlefield and fell off his horse, and the army's morale was in turmoil. A group of Tatar cavalry, taking advantage of the chaos, rushed to rescue the Tatar prince. The third prince led his own soldiers to fight to kill the enemy, and when he saw that he was invincible, he swung his knife and killed the Tatar prince! ”
"As soon as the Tatar prince died, those Tatar cavalry went crazy, and the third prince was also injured!"
