Chapter 67: Bad News (1)

At this time, it was the time when the summer heat was unbearable, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter, but fortunately, the room of the new moon was still cool, and she did not suffer much when she was recuperating from her injuries.

The Mid-Autumn Festival will be in five days, and the new moon will let Feng'er find a few light-colored clothes to come out, and she should be able to wear them in a few days.

"Girl, the doctor has explained, you have to lie down for a few more days, it is best to lie down for this month, so that the bones can be raised." Xinyue looked at the pork rib soup in Fei'er's hand, and she was about to vomit, so don't turn her face, "I don't want to drink this." ”

"Then drink the medicine" Mama Wang was embroidering a belt on the side, listening to Xinyue's refusal to eat, she put down the belt in her hand and asked Hao'er to serve the medicine, Xinyue drank the soup with a sad face, and finally drank the medicine.

At this moment, Wang Da's voice came from outside the door, "Girl, a letter from the little prince sent by the Yu Wangfu." ”

As soon as the crescent moon sank, Rong Xu wrote to himself at this time, thinking that he had encountered something bad, when Feng'er took the letter in, Xinyue's heart settled down, opened the letter, and the letter read, "Before writing the letter, my grandfather has ordered 50,000 troops from the eastern capital to support the prince, the prince is afraid that it is not good, after my sister received the letter, everything is careful in Beijing, if you have not received the news, it is not known that there is a turning point." ”

After Xinyue read the letter, King Yu, who had not worn battle armor for almost ten years, was sent out, presumably, something big happened in Jincheng, and there would be some turnaround.

Xinyue pulled her hair and said to Feng'er, "You go and invite the doctor Rong Ying found for me, I have something to ask him." ”

"Yes" Feng'er saw that Xinyue's eyes were dark, presumably something big should have happened, and without asking a word, she went out of the room to call the doctor.

After the doctor came, Xinyue had already put on her robe and asked Cui'er to prepare the car.

"What are you doing, lady?" Seeing Xinyue's age, dress and bearing, the doctor thought she was a lady.

"Doctor Wan, I want you to say accurately, I am going to enter Beijing now, with the current appearance of my body, is it impossible?"

"Madam, don't do it, your right rib is broken, it is said that you hurt your muscles and bones, and you have to take care of it for a hundred days, you are a young man, you are treated in time, and you also use medicine and food to replenish, and you recover quickly, but at least you have to lie down for a whole month before you can get out of bed and walk around, and it takes two months to fully recover, and you have been injured for less than forty days now, and you have to take a carriage to enter the city, but the bumps on the road are enough for you, Madame."

Crescent Moon didn't listen at all, and continued to ask, "But you said there was any way." ”

"There is no way for the little one" Dr. Wan was well explained by Rong Ying, and before her injuries were healed, she would never be allowed to leave this courtyard for half a step.

The new moon was furious, waving her hand and waving the pillows and other things on the bed on the ground, "useless"

"yes, damn it." Although Dr. Wan is afraid of the current crescent moon, his family is what he cares about the most.

Seeing that the doctor couldn't make sense here, Xinyue waved him to retreat, and asked Hao'er to find a long silk cloth and ask her to tie it to her body, where her bones were broken.

The silk cloth was thick and impermeable, and the new moon was sweating profusely after a while, but she still insisted, although Feng'er was worried about her body, but the new moon that didn't say a word was even more terrifying.

After putting on her inner robe, Crescent Moon shook her hand and stood up on her own. When Mama Wang came in, she saw that Xinyue had already put on her robe and was about to walk out with her hands.

"Girl, girl, are you dying?" As she spoke, Mama Wang knelt at the feet of the new moon and blocked the way of the new moon.

Crescent Moon breathed softly so that her ribs wouldn't hurt, and she walked outside without saying a word. Wang Da stood outside, "Girl, the sedan chair is ready." ”

"Carry me over." As she spoke, the new moon held on to the door frame and slowly walked into the sedan chair.

"Girl, your wounds haven't healed yet." Wang Da has never disobeyed Xinyue's orders, and this time he looked at Xinyue, who was sweating profusely, and he didn't know whether to indulge her.

"I'm just going to live at my brother's house for a few days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I'm also cultivating when I get there, okay?" If she doesn't give an answer that satisfies them, she won't be able to leave.

"Yes" Wang Da saw that Xinyue was already troubled, and immediately asked the two little servants to lift the sedan chair, sent Xinyue to the carriage, and sat in the carriage for more than half an hour, Xinyue opened the curtain and saw the four big characters of Anxuanhou's mansion.

Cao was surprised by the sudden arrival of the new moon, and it was almost time for dinner. After listening to Xinyue's intention to stay for a while, she immediately arranged a yard for Xinyue, and asked the nurse to take her two children and accompany Xinyue to dinner.

Xinyue didn't have much appetite, the doctor didn't deceive her, and she sat in the carriage all the way, which was really enough for her, but when she saw Xu Xintai's two children, Xinyue also cheered up.

The eldest of the two children is a girl, six years old, who was added in the year of the new moon's wedding. Their Cao family is very good at educating their children, the little girl is not very old, but she also stands and sits and sits, and when she saw the new moon, she restrained her hands in a proper manner, and called out in a milky voice, "Auntie, Minhui asks for peace to my aunt." “

Xiao Minhui's aunt's voice called Xinyue had mixed feelings in her heart, smiled and said to her, "Sister Hui, my aunt didn't bring you a gift this time, tomorrow, I will let people go to the street, buy you delicious food, and tell my aunt what you like to eat?" ”

"Auntie, Minhui wants to eat peanut crisp and sugar gourd" Sure enough, she was just a child raised under her mother's knees, and she couldn't help it when it came to eating.

"Okay, I'll send someone to buy it tomorrow, and you can come back tomorrow to play with your aunt and relieve her boredom." Crescent Moon smiled and stroked her hair.

On the other hand, he had just woken up and was very energetic, it was four-year-old Min Cong, who was staring at Xinyue with big eyes, and when he saw Xinyue looking at him, he said without shyness, "Auntie, Min Cong also wants to eat sugar gourds." ”

"Okay, I'll buy it for you too" Laughing, Xinyue wiped the saliva from Min Cong's mouth with a handkerchief, and said to Cao, "When I went to the Eastern Capital, Min Cong couldn't speak clearly, you see how clearly he said just now." ”

"This boy always speaks later than the girl, and Min Cong has only slowly spoken clearly since the New Year." Cao Shi took a closer look at Xinyue's expression, she remembered that Xinyue had never liked children very much, even her own nephews and nieces were the same, but looking at her current expression, it seemed that she really loved her.

How could Xinyue not see Cao's surprise, so she took the initiative to say, "It may have been young before, but now seeing these two children, it is really affectionate from the heart." ”

"If my sister likes it, I'll let these two children come to you every day to say hello." Cao really wants to make his sister-in-law more affectionate to him.

"I don't have to bother the two children so much, they are still young, and they definitely won't like to come to my house to be bored." Despite saying this, Xinyue still couldn't put it down and touched Minhui's smooth hair, and then seemed to say to herself, "I was taken by my aunt, and I am also Minhui's current age." ”

"I, I also heard about this from my boudoir, but fortunately, Mrs. Shizi is a good person, and it is good for you." Cao Shi was really unsure of the meaning of the new moon for a while.

Xinyue nodded, then cheered up and looked at Cao's family, "Didn't sister-in-law say that she came to eat with me?" I'm going to be a little hungry. ”

"Okay, okay, come on, serve." Cao Shi really couldn't grasp the joy and anger of Xinyue, so he immediately served the food, and the four of them had a meal that was quite harmonious.

Xinyue lay on this unfamiliar bed, looking at the embroidery on the curtain, she couldn't sleep, and she couldn't turn over, thinking about when to enter the palace to see the Queen Mother, as long as the Queen Mother did not fall, with her protection, Xu Xintai may not be imprisoned, but only removed and punished.

Crescent sat up, her long hair falling on top of her, and she pinned it in front of her, rubbing it against them, her melancholy making her breathless again.

When the sky was bright, the crescent moon sat all night, only to lie down for a while, and when she opened her eyes again, the new moon felt that there was a hot wind blowing on herself, and the new moon smiled, this is this Minhui, this little girl is messing with herself, thinking, Xinyue reached out and hugged this child who made trouble with herself, "Minhui, let my aunt sleep for a while." ”

"Auntie, Minhui wants to eat sugar gourd"

"Auntie, Min Cong also wants to eat" Xinyue opened her eyes, and between Min Hui lay beside Xin Yue, and Min Cong stood in front of Min Hui.

"You go and tell Feng'er and let her tell her to buy it." Xinyue was so troubled by Minhui that she couldn't sleep, and as she spoke, she hugged Minhui and put her in her arms, Minhui was amused and giggled, Mincong saw that they were having a lot of fun, and also wanted to get on Xinyue's bed and play with them.

After living in the Anxuanhou Mansion for five or six days, Xinyue lived very happily, and these two children brought great joy to Xinyue.

Because there was no good news on the front line, the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace banquet that was supposed to be held every year was also canceled, and at the time of seventeen, Yao'er and Shan'er, who was about to be more than seven months pregnant, came to see her.

Yao'er's husband Cao Jie was sent to Huzhou as an official, and Yao'er will not leave until next month to reunite with her, which is really inseparable for this young couple who have just been married for a long time. It's Shan'er, who is properly maintained during pregnancy, and her face is very good-looking, but there are some spots on her cheeks under her eyes.

However, as soon as Cao Shi saw her face, he congratulated her with a smile, this baby must be a boy, and then said that when he was pregnant with Mincong, he also had spots under his eyes. Shan'er should often hear others say this, just laugh at it.

Cao Shi saw that the three of them should still have something to say, so he made an excuse and left, leaving the three of them to talk in the house.

Xinyue asked Shan'er and Yao'er, "The day before yesterday, you entered the palace and saw the Queen Mother and the Queen. ”

Although there was no Mid-Autumn Festival palace banquet, as a royal family and prince, he still had to go to the palace to ask for peace, and the Cao family also went, but because he was not specially summoned, he did not see the queen mother and the queen.

"I saw the queen, her face was very bad, the eldest princess asked, and the queen only said that there was no rest, let us sit down and leave." Shan'er and Yao'er both met the queen.

"What about Your Majesty? How's it going? "Shan'er's husband, Kong Mao, is an official in the court, and you can see him as long as it is the day of the court.

"Your Majesty's face is not good. Mao Lang said that the palace is afraid that there will be changes. Shan'er was also worried.

"I also heard from my mother-in-law that the prince is afraid that it is not good, but it's just that the group of people hasn't found the prince yet..."

"Shut up!" Crescent Moon Power snorted "This is not something you should talk about"

"Yes, yes, Yao'er knows her mistake." Yao'er still hasn't been able to change her habit of talking nonsense.

"Big... Sister has no outsiders here, I heard that the whereabouts of Brother Xintai are also unknown now, I look at Sister-in-law Cao's appearance, I think I don't know it yet. ”

"And such a thing?" Yao'er doesn't know, which means that the Cao family is not very clear.

Xinyue carefully distinguished the two sisters, although she already knew what was going to happen, but the real hammer had not fallen, and she knew that it was useless.

"Sister, you said that if there is anything bad for the prince, is King Jin going to ..."Shan'er is much more measured than Yao'er, but she doesn't have a biological mother-in-law, and this kind of thoughtful talk can only be said to Xinyue and her own sister.

"Then the Chai family is going to work hard again." Mindless, Yao'er suddenly popped out such a sentence.

"The Chai family is the prince's mother's family, if the prince has an accident, what are they happy about?" Shan'er asked, puzzled.

Yao'er explained, "It's not the Lord of Che County who is almost twenty years old and has not married, no, Princess Jin died in childbirth, King Jin has no princess, and the Chai family wants to marry the Lord of Jin, Princess Chai also asked my mother-in-law to make peace, and the queen seems to have agreed, I am afraid that this matter will be done." In this situation, their Chai family should never have dreamed that there would be another queen. ”

Shan'er hurriedly shook her head, "That Chai Bijun has some friendship with me in the boudoir." I heard from the people around her that Yu He once told her fortune, saying that she got Dongzhu and didn't wear it. ”

The sea pearls produced in the East China Sea are large and smooth, and have been used exclusively by queens for generations.

Regarding Chai Bijun, Xinyue really hadn't heard of it. The outside world only thinks that she and the prince's eight characters do not agree, and this prophecy says that she is only worthy of being the prince's side concubine.

Xinyue thought about it, according to Rong Ying's temperament, marrying a Chai Bijun can hold the deep-rooted Chai family in his hands, which is really a very profitable business. Rong Ying will definitely agree, as for what Dongzhu is not Dongzhu, Rong Ying has never cared.

"Take your time, you'll always know what's going on later. Shan'er can't reach the end of the year, you are about to give birth, there is nothing big during this time, don't go out and walk around again, your stomach is your husband's family, the most important thing, be sure to take care of yourself. Crescent Moon diverted the conversation and talked about Shan'er's pregnancy.

"Yes" Xinyue looked at Shan'er stroking her belly, which reminded her of Lianyue again, as if everyone who wants to be a mother will touch her belly so gently, and talk to her unborn child in a whisper.

"Yao'er, what about you? Cao Jie has been gone for almost three months, do you miss him? ”

"Big... Sister, you're laughing at me. Yao'er lowered her head, and there were two more lumps of powder on her snow-white face.

"Your newlywed Yan'er must be inseparable, if he hadn't established himself in Huzhou first, he would definitely not be willing to part with you for a while." Shan'er began to tease her as well.

"I'll be going to see him next month, what's there to think about." Yao'er was shy and retorted.

"By the way, Yao'er, I'll tell you something, and you should keep it in mind carefully." When Xinyue talked about Cao Jie, she really thought of one thing.

"Sister, you say" Yao'er saw that the new moon was colorful, so she listened to it.

"Cao Jie received the post of Huzhou Assassin this time, and the mansion where Huzhou is located, Yin, has a daughter who is one year younger than you at home, that little girl is very favored at home, after you go to Huzhou, you have to take a good look at Cao Jie. If that little girl has any excessive behavior, you can simply be a matchmaker for your eldest brother, and the Xiao family doesn't have two unmarried brothers. In short, if she has any greed for Cao Jie, you will be a matchmaker for her. ”

"Sister, how did you know that there was such a restless person? Yao'er, my sister is right, if there is really such a thing, you can't be merciful. ”

Xinyue remembered that she was in a dream, although Cao Jie and his wife were also in love, it seemed that because his wife was not very peaceful, I thought that my family was restless, and I delayed my career a little.

"In short, you just guard against her, her status is not low, and she can't marry your family Langjun as a concubine. You should be careful and see how the character is, otherwise it will be good to be a big matchmaker for you. As she spoke, Crescent Moon smiled for the first time in a long time.

"Look at my sister, you are like this, it is really impossible for me to have half a point with my eldest brother." Yao'er smiled when she saw Xinyue, and she still had some emotion in her heart.

"Have you ever heard of the example of a couple getting back together after they are separated?" Crescent asked.

"Yes, there is a lady in Fencheng who will get back together with her husband." Shan'er spoke before Yao'er.

Later, she also wanted to make herself reunite with her eldest brother, but Xinyue knew in her heart that this would never happen.

This means that there is one more thing to pay attention to now in the new moon, and that is Chai Bijun.

However, Chai Bijun's fate, Yu He miscalculated. In the dream of the new moon, Chai Bijun became another queen of Chai, shining on the lintel.

The three of them chatted for a long time, even after lunch, now that it was afternoon, the two of them still had no intention of leaving. However, Shan'er is now a pregnant woman, so it is not suitable to sit for a long time, and after saying goodbye first, Yao'er is not good to sit again, so she will leave together.

After the two of them left, the originally lively room still seemed a little deserted. The new moon is very good at picking up such emotions, and after a while, it feels like nothing.

Just sitting on the bed, Cao Shi walked in from outside in a little panic, and it seemed that she knew what she should know now.

"Crescent Moon..."Cao didn't know how to speak.

"Sister-in-law, sit down and talk slowly." Xinyue stood up and personally helped Cao Shi to sit down, and Feng'er also poured her a cup of tea.

"I thought it was a little strange a few days ago, your eldest brother writes a letter to me every month, but according to the letter sent by the last letter, it has been almost fifty days, twenty days ago, I heard that the front line is tight, and it is common for your eldest brother to not care about writing letters. It's just that I went to the palace to see the queen the day before yesterday, but I asked the queen from afar, and I didn't get her special summons, and then I heard a few ladies who went with me say that the queen's face was not good, and they didn't stay long, and there were a few ladies who didn't see the queen. I wasn't worried, but the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became, could something happen to your eldest brother? And then you all hide it from me. Seeing that Cao's family finally reacted a little, Xinyue nodded, reached out and grabbed Cao's hand, "I'll tell you everything, but sister-in-law, you promise me not to be impulsive." ”

"Okay, I promise you," he said, and Cao's tears flowed.

Xinyue told the Cao family what she knew, according to the news in the capital today, and finally said, "That Zili, who used my father's skull to blackmail my brother, my brother is the son of man, and it is unreasonable to do this, but it only involves the prince, the prince, and it may also be dead." On the day I came to the Hou Mansion, I received a letter from Rong Xu, saying that Prince Yu led the troops to help Jincheng, presumably to save the prince, but now it seems that it is too late, he arrived, and he could only find the prince's... corpses. ”

"What about your brother? Are you still alive? Cao Shi couldn't cry anymore, but she felt that the new moon at this time was very calm and reliable, which gave her a sense of peace of mind that what she said was right.

Xinyue frowned, "Come to think of it, my brother is fine." ”

"That's good, your brother is fine. I'm not afraid of the rest, the emperor, as his uncle, won't kill your brother. What happens in the future, as long as he lives. As he spoke, Cao's eyes became resolute.

Xinyue nodded, "Sister-in-law, this is the bearing that Jiangmen's wife should have, my brother will be fine, and I will not allow it." ”

"How did you know so much about it?" Cao Shi stabilized her mood for a while, thinking that if Xinyue hadn't told her about these things, she wouldn't have known about them.

Of course, Xinyue couldn't say that she dreamed of it, so she said, "Most of it was told to me by Rong Xu's letters"

"Dongdu is close to Jincheng, he knows naturally better than us, he said that your eldest brother is fine, that's good." As he spoke, Cao wiped the tears from his face with a handkerchief.

"Well, big brother is fine." Xinyue sent Cao away, and just sat on his couch again, when he suddenly had a premonition, and that premonition was very strong, that is...

Before she could finish her thoughts, she heard the screams of Cao Shi, who had just walked out of her yard.

Xinyue was supported by Feng'er, and hurriedly went out to see Cao's, only to see Cao's fall to the ground, as if he had lost his soul, holding a letter that had just been opened, Cao's saw Xinyue and handed the letter to Xinyue, Xinyue took it and read it at a glance and ten lines, frowned tightly, and wrote "Prince Zhanxue, the body is damaged, but the body is there." Hou Ye was rescued, and his injuries were not life-threatening. The prince's coffin came from the south of General Jiang's Fu Ling, and arrived in Jinling at the end of the month, and Hou Ye was imprisoned for violating military orders, and returned to Beijing with the prince's coffin and General Jiang. Jincheng was aided by King Yu, cut Zili, and recaptured the bones of the old marquis. ”

Xinyue squatted on the ground, wanting to comfort the frightened Cao family, but her tears flowed down uncontrollably, these things that had been expected for a long time still made her messy, Rong Zhao died, Rong Zhao, because she died.
