Chapter 109: Forbearance
Mrs. Yong'an Hou gritted her teeth and said angrily: "I didn't dislike the lowly family of the Cheng family, and I didn't mind that she showed up to practice medicine, she didn't want to marry Azhang!" ”
"This Cheng Jinrong! It's so annoying and hateful! ”
Yong'an Hou said coldly: "The matter has come to this, what's the use of talking such nonsense." forced her, she told the Cheng family about Queen Pei's secrets and told Cheng Wang. Can I still destroy the Cheng family? ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou was choked speechless.
"I won't tell Ah Zhang about this for the time being." Yong'anhou's voice sounded again: "Ah Zhang asked about family affairs, and said that Cheng Wang didn't want his daughter to marry early, and he would wait two years to discuss marriage." He wanted to wait, just two years. He didn't want to wait, so he chose another famous lady for him as his wife. ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou was startled again, and looked up at Yong'an Hou with a cold expression, and a chill swelled in her heart. All kinds of thoughts flashed through my mind, and when the words came to my mouth, I couldn't say a word for some reason.
After a while, Mrs. Yong'an Hou nodded and responded: "Yes." Hou Ye rest assured, the concubine will definitely hide this matter and not let Ah Zhang find out. ”
Yong'an Hou left with a calm face.
After Yong'an Hou left, Mrs. Yong'an Hou stood for a long time.
I don't know how long it took for Mrs. Yong'an Hou to slowly come back to her senses. She used her sleeve to wipe the tears from her face little by little.
Yong'an Hou has poisoned his sister! How much affection do you have for her wife? Now, because of Cheng Jinrong's words, even his own son is suspicious!
For the safety of mother and child, no matter how much fear and resentment there is, you have to endure it silently.
……
Pei Zhang used to be the prince's companion, and he could return home every evening. Now Pei Zhang has received an errand and has become a royal guard, and he has to be on duty during the day. Also on duty in the evenings in shifts.
Tonight, Pei Zhang was on duty and did not return all night.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou tossed and turned, almost sleepless all night.
When it was dawn, Pei Zhang returned. Mrs. Yong'an Hou's eyes were red and swollen and she was haggard, where did she dare to see Pei Zhang with this appearance. ordered the maid Bai Wei to go out and stop Pei Zhang.
"Madame was a little unwell yesterday, she slept last night and hasn't woken up yet." Bai Wei smiled apologetically: "Please go and rest by yourself, and when Mrs. wakes up, it's not too late to see Childe again." ”
Pei Zhang was on duty overnight, tired and sleepy, and did not insist, so he nodded and responded.
After sleeping for a long time, Pei Zhang got up and went to see Mrs. Yong'an Hou.
As soon as they met, Pei Zhang was stunned: "Mother, why is your face so ugly?" ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou had a thick layer of fat powder on her face, and she couldn't hide the gloom and haggard on her face. However, after half a day, the redness and swelling under the eyes finally subsided, and there was no trace of crying.
"Yesterday I accidentally blew the wind, and my head ached a little." Mrs. Yong'an Hou frowned, looking weak: "Later, I will send someone to ask the doctor to come to see me." ”
Pei Zhang said a few words of concern: "Mother take care of your body, if there is anything, send someone to do it, don't be tired of your body." ”
Even Pei Zhang himself felt that these words were dry and heartless.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou listened to it in her ears, and her heart was even more uncomfortable.
Since that day, the mother and son have been estranged in the end. No more intimacy of the past.
Mrs. Yong'an Hou's heart was full of bitterness, and she cheered up and said, "Azhang, yesterday, your Uncle Cheng sent a letter. ”
Pei Zhang's eyes instantly burst into light, and his voice was eager and excited: "Is it time for my uncle to be a relative?" When did my mother go to Cheng's house to propose? ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou brought out the remarks discussed yesterday: "Your uncle doesn't want his daughter to marry early, so he hasn't responded for the time being. said that it would be two years before the marriage. If you only like Jinrong, you will have to wait two years. Otherwise, I ......"
"I'll wait!" Pei Zhang interrupted Mrs. Yong'an Hou without thinking: "No matter how long it takes, I'll wait!" ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou: "......"
Yong'an Hou is cold-blooded and cold-blooded, she is not a passionate person, why did she give birth to a love seed?
Mrs. Yong'an Hou endured her sullen anger and coaxed Pei Zhang with a smile: "Okay, okay, if you want to wait, it's up to you." ”
Pei Zhang is sixteen this year, and it is not too late to wait two years to marry a wife.
Of course, it's not to marry Cheng Jinrong.
Two years later, it is still unknown whether Cheng Jinrong will live in the world.
Pei Zhang didn't seem to hear Mrs. Yong'anhou's words, or pretended not to hear anything, and thanked him with a smile: "Thank you, mother." ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou quickly changed the topic: "Azhang, are you quite tired from being on duty these days?" ”
……
The imperial guard, as the name suggests, is actually the Son of Heaven's own soldiers.
In the palace, all civil and military generals are not allowed to carry weapons. Only the Imperial Guards can wear long swords or swords around their waists. This shows the special status of the imperial guards.
The imperial guards were all born in the generals, ranging in age from fifteen to thirty. This is also the best age for people who practice martial arts. After thirty years, he will be sent to the military camp to be a military general.
1,000 imperial guards, divided into three shifts, take turns on duty. At any given time, there were always hundreds of imperial guards on the side of the Son of Heaven.
The Imperial Guards didn't really have much of a chance to get their hands dirty. However, being on duty by the side of the Son of Heaven is by no means an easy task. One stop is most of the day, and you should pay attention to your appearance at all times.
The royal guards on night duty are even harder. It is necessary to guard inside and outside the palace of the Son of Heaven and patrol the night. Be alert at all times. On night duty, you can't doze off. Once caught dozing off, he will be fined fifty boards.
When the board came down, the skin and flesh of the person were beaten, and it was extremely embarrassing.
If you make such a mistake a second time, you will be kicked out of the palace.
Because of this, all the imperial guards were very cautious when they were on duty at night.
Pei Zhang opened his mouth and responded: "It's really a little tired. However, I am young and strong, and I can hold on. Mothers need not worry. ”
Mrs. Yong'an Hou hummed, thought about it, and whispered: "You are now on duty with He Saburo, and under the emperor's nose, you must not cause trouble." ”
Speaking of He Qi, Pei Zhang's eyes turned cold, and he said lightly: "I know the severity." ”
In the general election of the imperial guards, He Qi won 66 consecutive games, won the favor of the Son of Heaven, and was awarded the rank of Zhaowu Lieutenant of the Sixth Grade. With Ariga praying in front of him, his second place, who had won sixty-five games, suddenly disappeared.
The defeat of that day also became a scar in Pei Zhang's heart.
As a royal guard, he is on duty every day. He Qi was deeply loved by Emperor Xuanhe, and he was also a celebrity in front of the emperor. The two were often called to drive together, and it was not uncommon for them to meet.
The thorn in the eye often dangles in front of the eyes, and it is not easy for each other to forcibly resist the urge to turn their faces and beat people.
However, as Mrs. Yong'an Hou said.
Being on duty by the side of the Son of Heaven is glorious and decent, but also a bondage. Don't make a fuss in vain!
