Chapter 54: Meet (4)
This day is the day when the family of King Yu entered Jinling, Xinyue, as the wife of the grandson, naturally went to the dock to greet him, and also on this pier, he saw the glory of King Yu from a new perspective.
Crescent Moon looked at the big ship that was docking, and the position farther forward than she was standing was full of people. And all of them are old nobles who worship the prime minister.
Xinyue frowned, looking at the crowded heads in front of her, I don't know what the emperor, who was already afraid of King Yu, would think in his heart when he saw such a situation.
Sure enough, from the corner, Xinyue saw a few young people with no hair on their faces, not tall, but with swords at their waists. Appearing here, there is such blatant, one is spying, and the other is to make the princes and nobles who are here to pick up the king of Yu a little jealous, but no one is afraid.
Standing at the front is His Majesty's cousin, King Zhen, if it weren't for his father and King Li's infighting, he almost overthrew the family and lost his life, otherwise there is the throne of His Majesty now.
Most of the princes in the back are also in this situation, standing on the wrong team, and if His Majesty cannot be reused today, they will naturally surround King Yu.
Standing on the other side, after seeing the face of the leader clearly, Crescent Moon almost didn't faint, she glanced at the ship that was at anchor, and wanted to turn away.
"Ma'am, ma'am... The one standing at the front is General Weibei, Zhou, and General Zhou. Fei'er grew up in the Eastern Capital, but she also recognized it at first sight, and the one standing at the front was General Zhou, who commanded 300,000 troops. He was one of King Yu's lieutenants.
The guards of the Quartet, except for His Majesty's little uncle who did not come over, are all here, because now the world is peaceful, and these generals on the border are all in Jinling City, and Xinyue feels that they are really idle.
Crescent Moon turned around and wanted to leave, but knew that now was not the time to be willful, so after a few patiences, she continued to stand here. Today's meeting made Xinyue understand one thing, that is, after Rong Ying took the throne, King Zhen, who was now standing straight and arrogant, and King Zhen, who saw King Zhen on the side, had an unpleasant face and encouraged the prince, all of them were uprooted, but only King Yu's family came down. That's these generals. Although King Yu looks like he has had his teeth pulled out, he is a tiger that is about to die. But as the so-called hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, even if King Yu is dead, the one standing beside him, the grandson of King Yu, will become the successor of these forces of him, keep him, treat him well, and these generals will naturally obey.
Crescent Moon who came out of the carriage wearing a hood and didn't know what to do with her head down, so she had to stand at the back with her head down, hoping that the military eunuchs would not see her.
Rong Xu followed behind King Yu and had already gotten off the boat, but he had a sad face, not that he couldn't figure things out.
King Zhen stiffened his body and said to King Yu who stopped beside him, "Uncle Huang, I haven't seen you for a few years, but your body is still healthy?" ”
Because it is to enter Beijing, so the king of Yu did not wear the Taoist clothes often worn in the palace, but wore a brown brocade robe, a purse around his waist and a piece of black jade that is worth a lot at a glance, which is a gift from the emperor.
King Yu raised his head and said to King Zhen, who was waiting on the side, and his face was stiff, "Good nephew, my body is fine." But you, no need to greet you, just look at the meat on your body and know that you are doing well. ”
"Yes, yes, my nephew is doing well." King Zhen didn't dare to do anything, so he had to answer peacefully.
"All standing in this tuyere, how tired, today the king is in a bit of a hurry to return to Beijing, the house did not prepare water and wine, but I heard that the wine and food in the south building are good, nephew, go together?"
King Zhen naturally agreed, and King Yu glanced at the prince of the Li Wang family on the side, and beckoned, "Chang'er, the last time I saw you, it was when you were a hundred days, and now, you have grown so big." ”
"Uncle and grandfather are healthy." Rong Chang, the son of King Li, finally squeezed to the front.
"Good boy, will you go with you?"
"Yes"
"Gentlemen, come along." King Yu's voice was a little higher, and the things that should be with him fluctuated, and Xinyue sighed, "There's nothing to do with us, let's go." ”
Xinyue didn't see his relatives on this boat, and there were only his two uncles standing in front of Rong Xu, who had obviously been arranged by King Yu a long time ago.
"Madam, the little prince is coming this way" As soon as Xinyue turned around, she heard Fei'er say this.
Xinyue turned her head and saw that King Yu was looking at this side, Xinyue Shi Shiran, after saluting, King Yu nodded, and the little prince Rong Xu had already walked in front of Xinyue.
"Say hello to the little prince," Xinyue saluted Rong Xu again.
"Let's go" Rong Xu's expression was indifferent, and he walked up to the carriage he was sitting in when the new moon came.
"Where are you going?" The crescent moon grabbed him out of nowhere.
Rong Xu looked at the corner of his clothes, Xinyue's hand, and did not open it, but said lightly, "Go home"
"Don't you have to socialize with the prince?" Xinyue saw that the king of Yu and the princes and generals in front of him had already ridden their horses, got into the carriage and went to the south tower.
"When you raid the house, I'll just take you with me, won't you leave?" It can be seen that Rong Xu is a little angry with King Yu in his heart, and he has said such unlucky words as copying his family.
"Let's go, let's go" said, Xinyue was a little ignorant, and sat next to Rong Xu.
The carriage moved again, and the new moon didn't hold it steadily, and almost fell, but Rong Xu stretched out his hand to hold it, "Be careful." ”
"Okay, okay," he said, and the new moon sat down again, and the carriage moved smoothly.
Rong Xu seemed to be very tired, leaning on the carriage on the side, closing his eyes and recuperating.
The two didn't say anything all the way, until the carriage stopped, Xinyue saw that Rong Xu still didn't react, and looked closely at him and fell asleep on the side.
When Crescent Moon wanted to call him, he suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Crescent's outstretched hand, and Crescent Moon, who was a little closer, and then frowned, "What are you doing?" ”
As if he had just woken up, his voice was a little hoarse, and then he saw the new moon retreat as if it had been burned by fire, and then laughed, "We have been married for six years, if you are shy, it is really a bit of a past." ”
"No, it's just panicking, let's go inside." Saying that, Xinyue got down from the carriage first, Shan'er and Yao'er had been waiting for a while, but only Rong Xu and Xinyue got off the carriage.
Shan'er hadn't seen Rong Xu for a long time, and their brother and sister naturally had something to say, Shan'er naturally and affectionately put her hand on Rong Xu's arm, and Rong Xu also reached out to arrange the ribbon between her arms and asked her about being pregnant. Xinyue looked at this scene, and thought of her cold and hard brother, not only pouted.
"I wanted to go to the dock to meet the prince and the little prince, but Shan'er said that it would be more appropriate to wait at home, but I don't know, what about the prince?" It was Kong Mao who spoke, and he did not see King Yu.
"Gong Wen's son has a heart, his grandfather set up a banquet in the South Building, but his grandfather has an explanation, knowing that you don't like those complicated occasions, we are a family, so we have a light meal at home."
Kong Mao also planned to do so, their family boasted of being clear, and as soon as they went out, they heard that the princes and nobles were all going to the dock, and he roughly guessed what was going on, so he and Shan'er came directly to the other residence, and sure enough, Rong Xu was not willing to participate in those occasions.
The two of them and Rong Han went into the guest room to drink tea together, Yao'er and Shan'er followed happily, leaving Xinyue standing alone, hanging her hands and not wanting to follow.
Yao'er had already walked to the main hall, but when she turned around, she didn't see the figure of Xinyue, who had already turned around and returned to her courtyard.
"Madame, aren't you in front?" Mama Wang was a little surprised to see the crescent moon here.
"The meeting of their sisters and brothers, I seem redundant there, Mama, I'm a little tired, you make my bed, I'll rest."
Mama Wang turned around and came out of the small kitchen, holding a soup in her hand, "It's time for lunch, don't drink some chicken soup again..."
"Vomit..."As soon as Crescent Moon smelled the chicken soup, she bent over and vomited.
This frightened Fei'er and Feng'er, who were standing beside her, "Madam, ma'am, what's wrong with you?" ”
Because there was nothing in the stomach, the crescent moon spit out only sour water, and the stomach walls shrunk together, and there was a dull pain.
"This, Fei'er, you go and call the doctor, madam, you don't have any blood on your face, no wonder you are tired, hurry, lie down." As she spoke, Mama Wang unfolded the futon and helped Xinyue to the bed.
Crescent Moon took off her soiled robe, "It's okay, I'm just a little dizzy, I drank the wind again on the dock, just lie down for a while." ”
"You don't look like you're fine, the wound on your forehead, it didn't take long for you to work hard, and you ran around, and your face lost a whole circle, if it's because of the injury on your head, how can it be good to leave the root of the disease." As she spoke, Mama Wang removed the hairpin from her head and put down her long hair to make her more comfortable.
When Yao'er came in, she really saw Li Langzhong enter Xinyue's room and asked, "Li Langzhong, what's wrong with my sister-in-law?" ”
"Miss Fei'er said that Madame is a little vomiting and dizzy, so I'll go and see." As he spoke, Li Langzhong kept walking into the house.
"Vomiting, dizziness? Are you pregnant? Yao'er pulled Xing'er excitedly.
Xing'er whispered to Yao'er, "Miss, this is not what you should say. ”
"You also learn from your sister-in-law, but if your sister-in-law is really pregnant, it's really great." With that, Yao'er walked into the room.
Seeing that Li Langzhong was half-kneeling beside Xinyue's bed, checking Xinyue's pulse, his face didn't look like he was happy, so Yao'er asked worriedly, "My sister-in-law, are you okay?" ”
"It's not a big deal, but madam, you have to be careful, you are overly worried, and now you are dizzy, and if you continue like this, there will definitely be a big problem." Saying that, Li Langzhong stood up and looked at Xinyue's wound, "Originally, there are some cracks in the bones under this wound on your forehead, and if you take care of it well, it will get better, if you delay it, there will definitely be a big problem." ”
"Sister-in-law, are you sick, not pregnant?" Yao'er immediately couldn't listen to it.
"What? Why do you think I'm pregnant? Xinyue felt that she couldn't cry or laugh, thinking of her relationship with Rong Xu, even if it was the Year of the Monkey, Ma Yue, she would not be pregnant.
"You are dizzy and vomiting, these are some conditions when Sister Shan'er is pregnant" Yao'er asked Li Langzhong, "Li Langzhong, are you diagnosing wrong?" ”
Xinyue saw that Li Langzhong was entangled by her and couldn't get out, so she had to stroke her forehead and ask Li Langzhong, "How to treat it?" ”
"I'll prescribe a few medicines for my wife, and my wife will stay in bed for a few days." As he spoke, he was about to go to the prescription, but was stopped by Xinyue, "I can't rest now, in five days, it will be the day of Yao'er's marriage, if I am bedridden, what will Yao'er's marriage do." ”
"Sister-in-law, is it still time to take care of me? Your body is the most important thing, lie down and rest. With that, Yao'er threw herself in front of Xinyue's bed, pressed Xinyue's arm, and made her lie down.
"I'll have to wait until this thing is all right," the new moon still refused to obey.
"Madam, after taking the medicine, you will always be groggy and want to sleep, and if you can rest like this for three days, it will be very helpful for the injury on your forehead. In this way, Madame will not miss Miss Yao's wedding. Li Langzhong had already thought of a countermeasure for this matter, and when he said this, Xinyue nodded, "Then be it." ”
"Okay, the little one immediately went down to prescribe medicine for Madame, Madame vomited just now, and she will definitely not be able to eat, but before drinking the medicine, it is best to eat something light first, and then start bed rest immediately."
"Okay" said, Li Langzhong went outside to prescribe medicine, and when Mama Wang heard Langzhong say this, she came over with the chicken soup that was still hot and put aside, "This chicken soup is also Mrs. at this time..."
"Mama, Madame said that she started to vomit when she smelled the smell of chicken soup, Mama didn't know about it in Zhuangzi these days, but Madame's diet has been extinct in chicken soup." Fei'er saw the pain on Xinyue's face, and said eagerly.
Mama Wang couldn't hold it on her face, but she also knew the reason for Xinyue's vomiting, so she left silently with chicken soup.
The atmosphere in the room quieted down, and Yao'er whispered, "Fei'er, you girl, except for my mother, Mama Wang is the person your wife cares about the most, do you dare to scold her?" ”
"Slave maid, slave maid is also in a hurry, please forgive Madame" said, Fei'er also knelt on the ground with a remorseful face.
Xinyue waved her hand, "You should go and tell Mama Wang about this." ”
"Yes" Fei'er turned around and went to the kitchen to make amends to Mama Wang, Xinyue glanced at Yao'er, Yao'er stood up, "Sister-in-law, you have to have a good rest, I'll go to my brother's side to report that you are sick." ”
"Get out, I'm tired too." Xinyue asked Hao'er to send her out, pulled up her quilt, and lay down.
"Madam, I've changed the white porridge." After a while, Mama Wang brought white porridge and came in by herself.
"Did Fei'er apologize to you?" Xinyue sat up and took the white porridge with some difficulty, Mama Wang saw that she was reluctant, so she held it to her and fed her, "That girl, although it is very good to you, dedicated to you, it's just that the temperament is too rushing, if it is just to make you comfortable, and you don't look at the reactions of the people around you, you don't know how to persuade, and it is easy to affect you." ”
"That Da Mama, staring at me like a black-eyed chicken, can give me a good person. But Fei'er is also good, I want you to mention more from the side in the future, look at it, fortunately, we will go to live in Zhuangzi immediately, and there is time to teach her well. Xinyue said Po Fei'er's question, and Mama Wang also smiled, "Don't worry, the old slave will teach her well." ”
"Okay, I don't want to eat it." As she spoke, Xinyue shook her head and didn't want to drink any more porridge.
Mama Wang looked at Xinyue, who had only eaten half a bowl, and understood her temper too well, so she didn't persuade again, but asked with some concern, "The old slave just heard what happened on the dock, Your Majesty and the Queen Mother refused to let go of you just to prevent the prince from doing this, and he is like this now, so he will push you to the cusp." ”
"To the outside world, I fell ill as soon as I returned home, and I couldn't afford to be sick because of excessive worry, and I must spread this matter to the ears of the people in the palace." The crescent moon lay down again so that she could have a good rest.
It was lunch time, and His Majesty came to the Queen Mother's palace to accompany the frightened Queen Mother to lunch, which was really benevolent and filial. It's just that at the dinner table, the faces of the mother and son are not very good, let alone eating, the queen mother can't even swallow a mouthful of soup.
"This King Yu is really too much, you have made many concessions to him, but you still haven't been able to get a trace of his awe." The Queen Mother held her forehead tiredly and put down the chopsticks in her hand.
"Mother, are you feeling better now? The camellia tree is irretrievable, and the son will let the gardener come to a bigger tree, although it cannot be compared with the friendship planted by the father and the emperor himself, but it can also let the queen mother watch it from time to time and soothe the mood. His Majesty looked at the Queen Mother with a sad face, so he wanted to do something to make her happy.
Who knew that after hearing the camellia tree, the Queen Mother smiled indifferently, "That tree, it was Queen Chai who beat me, and your father not only did not punish her, but listened to Queen Chai's words, saying that I was disrespectful and spoke against me, so I was rewarded with such a camellia tree." This flower means humility and obedience, and no matter how good the flower blooms, people plant it mostly for the purpose of picking fruits to make oil. It was cut, just what I wanted. Saying that, the Queen Mother felt a little happy in her heart and took a sip of soup.
"My son didn't know there was such a thing." When His Majesty heard this, the expression on his face was not happy.
"You don't have to think anything, the emperor's intentions, there is one thing that I think is very right. That is, why do you need to bloom any flowers with good meanings, as long as the final fruit is useful, it can maintain prosperity forever. As she spoke, the Queen Mother reached out and patted Her Majesty's hand.
"If King Yu continues to do this, we can think of other ways to control it. The new moon, can she do what she wants? After all, she is Yining's only daughter, and she is also tired by her aunt, if she is really unhappy in Yuwangfu, are we..."
"What did Yu He say?" The Queen Mother was also touched, thinking of the scar on Xinyue's forehead, she is not a hard-hearted person, especially for her children.
Yu He said that the life character she fell into the water and was taken away is now back to her, she is still the queen's life, and her husband must be the emperor, and he is an emperor who has created a great cause. If it can't be our Zhao'er, but Rong Xu, King Yu can't just be subdued, but killed, and Xinyue can only..."
"King Yu's family, whether to die or live is something that Your Majesty has to consider, but Xinyue must not be like her mother. I originally thought that she had feelings for Rong Xu, and if she broke off, she would drag down the child. Now, she has no intention of Rong Xu, and she is not having a good time, and it is not surprising that she will leave. Just let her marry Zhao'er again, I'm afraid that girl won't be willing. The Queen Mother finally acquiesced to this matter and was already making new plans.
"Well, let it be a deal. Since Xinyue is not satisfied with her marriage to Rong Xu, if she wants to get out of it, she can only marry my son. "The emperor has nothing to say in front of his mother.
"You can figure it out." Although His Majesty's words are a bit unruly, this is not a bad way.
"You call Yu He, and I'll ask him personally."
The Queen Mother instructed, and within half an hour, Yu He came to her, and when she heard Her Majesty's plan, the Queen Mother asked again, "Can the two of them really bear good fruit?" ”
Yu He shook his head, "Now is not the best time for the two to get married, a year, at least half a year, after divination again, determine the marriage date, in order to reach the top and the best, so that the life of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Mrs. Xinyue can be brought into full play." ”
"In this way, can the matter of the two of them be separated for a while longer, so that King Yu can be stabilized, and more time can be bought for me to make a decision." Since it's not the best time, let the new moon play its fullest.
"No, if you pinch the day, she and Rong Xu have just reconciled, and Zhao'er marries her, which will definitely attract the criticism of the world. Her daughter who marries twice at any time, her reputation, and the physique of our royal family are not bad at all. "The Queen Mother paused" This matter, there is no more suitable time now, if it is postponed, there will be new changes. ”
"That's what the minister thinks, too." Yu He leaned in and said his opinion.
"In this way, I can only make an agreement with Xinyue first, and finally do what she wants." His Majesty made a final decision on this matter, and it was so decided.
