Chapter 96: Staggered (1)
The three of them discussed for a long time, because there was no New Year, the year of national funeral had not passed, and the banquet that created an opportunity for young men and women to meet could not be held, so they could only make some small banquets, Shan'er and Yao'er didn't understand why Xinyue did this, Xinyue thought for a long time, and then said to the two people, "Just think I owe her." ”
"Sister-in-law, haven't you seen her face, such a wicked girl, marrying into someone else's family, is also a scourge." Shan'er listened to what Yao'er said, but she didn't agree and said, "You met a good mother-in-law, that mother-in-law with a big temper and many rules, let her be a person in a month." ”
Xinyue listened and smiled, "As soon as you say that the mother-in-law with big rules, the youngest son of the eldest princess Wen Qing, is just the right age." ”
After hearing Xinyue's words, Shan'er smiled, but Yao'er looked confused, "What's wrong with Aunt Qing?" ”
This eldest princess of Wenqing, like Xinyue's mother, the eldest princess of Yining, is the eldest daughter of the first emperor, although she is not born to the same mother as His Majesty today, but she is the daughter of the first emperor's Empress Chai, and she is a concubine, and her status is noble, and she is not even comparable to Her Majesty and the eldest princess of Yining.
has always been taller, and for juniors like Xinyue, her eyes are even more on the top of her head to look at people, and she doesn't like Xinyue very much, and Xinyue hasn't heard her say a word to herself.
But she likes Yao'er very much, because she has no daughter, and she has taken Yao'er to live at home for a long time, because her aunt really misses Yao'er, she cries every time, and her uncle is reluctant to take Yao'er over.
However, Yao'er, a little conscienceless person, eats white and fat in the mansion of the eldest princess of Wenqing, and her temperament is also lively, and she is a little more stable.
Xinyue sometimes felt that if Yao'er lived in the eldest princess's mansion for a longer period of time, she would definitely be able to have more proportions and means than now.
"The youngest son of the eldest princess's family followed the old Marquis Jiang in the border for a few years ago, and was driven out of the Northern Army by the Marquis Jiang because of violating military regulations. After the New Year, it must be decided, and at the end of the year, you can get married after the national funeral. "Shan'er knows more than Yao'er.
Xinyue also listened to Rong Ying's letter to herself, and accidentally mentioned it once, and then she thought of it, "The eldest princess of Wen Qing is married to the commander of the Southern Army, Grandpa Wu, the eldest son of his family, has been with his father ten years ago, but the youngest son Wu Jun, has not done much, but Grandpa Wu personally went to ask Marquis Jiang, so that he could take his son with him, this Gongzi Wu, but he is also very competitive, starting from the army, but in two years, he has achieved one or two thousand people under his wing. Later, because of the private concubine room, and because of the concubine room, the time to return to the camp was delayed, and the military regulations were violated, so he was expelled from the army by Jiang Houye, thinking that it was a correct law. ”
"It's because of this that a woman's good future has been ruined, Grandpa Wu is very good at governing the army, and he is also very strict with his children, so he has to kill this little boy." After hearing this, Shan'er nodded with palpitations.
"No, Grandpa Wu couldn't take care of it, so he handed over Xiao Gongzi Wu to his wife to take care of it, but he also took care of it, and sent the concubine who was bad away from it." Xinyue wanted to take a sip of tea, but found that her cup had already fallen to the ground.
After Shan'er's grandmother saw it, she brought a new tea, so that she would not be thirsty enough to drink tea.
As soon as Xinyue took a sip of tea, she heard the cry of a child coming from behind, it was Shan'er's child crying, and after a while, the crying stopped, and Mama took the child out.
I saw this little boy who was almost half a year old, in his infancy, staring at the people around him with a pair of dark eyes.
Yao'er wanted to hug her, but was stopped by Mama Li, "Girl, you just have a body, it's not good to hold a child." ”
"Let me come," she said, and Crescent Moon opened her arms and took Shan'er's baby in her arms.
"Is the name set?" Crescent Moon asked, looking at the little cutie.
"My father gave him a name, and when it comes to his generation, from the water, it is called Yong'er, Yong'er." Shan'er said his name, and Crescent smiled and coaxed, "Yong'er, little Yong'er." ”
"This tiger head hat looks like the craftsmanship of my sister-in-law." Yao'er reached out and touched Yong'er's face, saw the hat on his head and said.
Xinyue smiled, "I also do it casually, but the gold thread on the tiger's head was given to me by Yu He, and making it into a tiger head hat is also a blessing and longevity for this child." ”
Yong'er looked very well-behaved, lying in Xinyue's arms, putting one hand in her mouth, just drooling constantly.
"This child is younger than Lian'er of the Jin family, but I am almost heavy when I hold two people." Crescent Moon cushioned Yong'er with her legs, and Yong'er giggled in surprise, causing the three of them to laugh along with him.
"Girl, give the little master to the slave maid, you have to take it down to feed, and if you feel hungry for a while, you will cry." The nurse stepped forward and took Yong'er from Xinyue's hand, and the three of them teased him for a while, and then they were hugged down, and Xinyue couldn't help but kiss his little face.
"Sister-in-law, have you ever hugged the child of the Jin family?" Yao'er asked.
Xinyue frowned, thinking that she did say this just now, and there was nothing to hide, "I went to Jiang's house for a banquet that day, and the King of Jin was also invited, he took the prince with him, and I hugged him." ”
"Sister-in-law, you seem to have been very close to the Jiang family recently, and on the first day I came, I heard from my mother-in-law." After speaking, Yao'er was pulled by Shan'er's clothes and didn't let her say any more.
Xinyue also smiled calmly, "It's inexplicable, that's it, it's not a big deal." ”
"Sister-in-law, don't you really think about my eldest brother?" Yao'er took Xinyue's hand, shaking and coquettish with herself as she used to.
Xinyue saw that Shan'er also wanted to know this answer, but her answer was already very clear, "Speaking of your eldest brother, it can also be counted in the list of Miss Liu's sons-in-law." ”
Yao'er and Shan'er shook their heads when they heard this, "Let's let her go to harm other families, our Yuwang Mansion can't fit this big Buddha." ”
Xinyue smiled: "But your eldest brother's marriage is also on the agenda." ”
"We have a new sister-in-law, which is convenient for us, but presumably what if it is an intolerable person and doesn't let the two of us see you?" Shan'er said angrily.
Xinyue smiled, "She won't let the two of you see me, so you two won't bother me?" I don't think you two seem to be such worry-free people, and I really wish you had a new sister-in-law to bother her. ”
"You can think beautifully, you yourself just said that we are not as unrelated as you and Sister-in-law Cao, we are related by blood. Mother told us to take care of each other, and we had to. Saying that, Shan'er took Xinyue's hand and Yao'er's hand, and the hands of the three of them were stacked together, she had given birth to a child, and she was really sensible.
"Okay, then I'll arrange a new wife for your eldest brother as soon as possible." As she spoke, Xinyue was also like Shan'er, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
"Looking at it this way, you and my eldest brother are really impossible." Yao'er was a little sad, she still missed the days when she lived by the side of the new moon.
"Everyone will have their own life, they will meet different people, and there will be new experiences and children," said Xinyue, who reached out and touched Yao'er's belly.
Yao'er also smiled, and her face finally had a bright look.
"We will solve this matter well, so that this beautiful smile will always remain in your eyes."
Coming out of Shan'er's room, just after lunch, when Xinyue was about to go back, she happened to meet Cao Jie, who came to find Yao'er, and Cao Jie was "Xu Hounu"
"Yao'er is in the room, you can go in" said Xinyue, a little cold and ready to leave.
was stopped by Cao Jie, "Hou Nu Xu, did you hear Yao'er talk about that Miss Liu?" ”
Seeing that he wanted to talk to herself, Crescent Moon nodded, "Speaking of it." ”
"I don't have any personal relationship with Miss Liu, and I have never done anything out of the ordinary." Cao Jie's determined appearance made Xinyue choose to believe his words, but she just said, "You want to convince me and persuade Yao'er like this, then you think about it in your shoes, what Yao'er wants to say to you, she also wants you to believe it." ”
"Sister Crescent, you know, I'm not such a person." Cao Jie was silent for a moment before he spoke impulsively.
Xinyue smiled, "You still call me sister, I'll tell you what is in my heart, I don't care what you have with Miss Liu or Miss Zhang, Miss Wang, or nothing." It's just that if you let Yao'er stop smiling and make her so preoccupied today, I will not give up with you and your warblers and Yanyan. ”
"I didn't," Cao Jie still wanted to explain to Xinyue.
Xinyue saw Cao Jie chasing after her, and said with a sigh of relief, "I hope not, I tried my best to make this big match, don't end up with a bad result, if there is really a bad result, I can eat it, but you remember Cao Jie, Yao'er, you must not fail her, count me..."
Seeing that the curtain behind Cao Jie was lifted, as if someone had come out of it, Xinyue frowned and said in a low voice, "Count me begging you." ”
Cao Jie looked at Xinyue a little dazed, and then saw her smile and looked at Yao'er who walked out of the door.
There was a brilliant light in her eyes, natural and delightful, which he had not been able to see for many years. When he was young, he and his sister went to the Anxuanhou Mansion to attend a banquet together. Along the way, her mother was very happy, because the eldest princess of Yining fell in love with her sister and wanted to make her sister the new hostess of Anxuanhou Mansion.
It was the first time he saw the new moon, and he didn't remember some vague details, but only the smiling eyes of the new moon, he also remembered these eyes, which were the eyes that looked at the cherished things, Cao Jie turned around, and saw Yao'er, and also understood that Yao'er was the most cherished person in the new moon.
"Sister-in-law hasn't left yet?" Yao'er walked over a few steps, but was stopped by Xinyue, "Slow down, don't take big steps, my aunt, are you going to kill me in a hurry?" With that, Crescent Moon took a closer look at her and saw that nothing was wrong.
Yao'er shook her waist, "Aren't I fine, sister-in-law, don't make a fuss." You were in a hurry just now, come, here's your handkerchief. As she spoke, Yao'er unfolded the handkerchief she was holding in her hand, she was in such a hurry to come out, she was going to give it to Xinyue.
The new moon came over, "But you couple have a good heart, if I don't talk to Lord Cao, you will have to walk a long way to catch up with me." Now that the veil is in my hand, I will go first. ”
"That sister-in-law walks slowly." Yao'er smiled and watched the new moon leave.
Xinyue walked out of the courtyard, Yao'er glanced at Cao Jie, who was also looking at Xinyue's figure, Cao Jie also felt her gaze, and explained to her, "Your sister-in-law, no, Xu Hounu just talked to me about something. ”
"What?" Yao'er asked.
"She told me to take good care of you." As he spoke, Cao Jie looked at Yao'er's face, the husband and wife, the newlywed Yan'er, and their eyes were gentle and gentle.
"Will you do that?" Yao'er asked.
"This is natural, not only because of your sister-in-law's entrustment, but also because you are my beloved."
"What are you talking about?" Yao'er shyly stretched out her pink fist, but was caught by Cao Jie, and when she saw that there was no one around, she held Yao'er in her arms, "Are you still angry about Miss Liu?" ”
Yao'er lowered her head, "I didn't"
"And what good ideas did your two sisters give you?" Cao Jie elongated his voice, quite like he was interrogating the student.
Yao'er bit her lip, the couple is like this, but it is also full of fun, "I, they, no." ”
"I'll just wait for your sisters to give you a good idea." Cao Jie laughed, his eyes were also full of brilliance, and his eyes were full of reflections of his beloved.
"You're not afraid that we'll hurt that Miss Liu." As she spoke, Yao'er straightened up with a rare stiffness.
"You, no. Let's go, let's go home. With that, Cao Jie took Yao'er's hand, and the two walked outside the mansion together.
Xinyue saw that the two walked out of the back house hand in hand, so that they were reconciled, a child, or under the condition of his parents and Hemeimei, it was good to grow up slowly.
"Girl, let's go," Fei'er said to Crescent.
"Well, let's go." With that, Crescent Moon lowered the curtain, and the carriage moved to her home.
As soon as he arrived at the door, Xinyue saw a horse and a carriage parked at the door, and was puzzled, and handed down the horse stool for himself, "It was a son surnamed Ji who came, saying that he wanted to pick up the two children." ”
"En" Xinyue nodded, and went to the main court, and as soon as she entered the main court, she saw Ji Feiyu stretching out his arm, making an appearance in the play.
He seemed to have waited for a while, and the teacup in his hand was already empty, and he must have been sitting a little numb before he stood up and loosened his muscles.
Xinyue didn't bother him, but watched from the side, and listened to Fei'er say that this season Feiyu used to be the most popular drama in the Eastern Capital, and he fed the Xiangyun class by himself, making this theater troupe the most prestigious theater troupe in the four countries, they often performed in the four countries, often full, and were invited to perform in the palace by the lord of Yuguo, just when the Xiangyun class was about to come to Jinling, this pillar suddenly stopped singing, saying that his father came to call him home and inherit the family property, but he didn't expect this property to be the full net worth of the richest man in the world.
I saw Ji Feiyu spin around and landed on the ground steadily, and finally smiled a little proudly, Xinyue also understood that his smile should be satisfied to see that he was not unfamiliar with his skills.
In this way, the new moon felt that she was going to show up. She coughed lightly, who knew that Ji Feiyu actually spun two more spins in a row, and when the last one came, when she saw Xinyue coming in, she couldn't close the momentum and fell to the ground with a bang.
That panicked look made Xinyue laugh.
Ji Feiyu's eyes were black, but a smile like a silver bell of the crescent moon sounded in his ears, and when he looked up, he saw the crescent moon standing one meter away from him, bowing down and looking at him, "Get up, Ji Gongzi." ”
Saying that, Ji Feiyu stood up and said a little embarrassedly, "I, the little one, no, in the next moment, I lost my temper in front of the girl, and I asked the girl to be surprised." ”
"Childe is polite, please take a seat." Come on, serve tea to the son. ”
"Thank you, girl" Ji Feiyu sorted out his clothes a little embarrassed, and sat straight where he was sitting just now.
"Looking at Childe's posture just now, is he pretending to be a martial artist?" Xinyue hasn't watched a few scenes, but she likes the martial arts who is on stage, has the potential to turn over the clouds and the sea, but is alone, and has a hearty feeling after watching it.
"When I was young, I studied drama and learned martial arts first, but because my body was tall and not strong, I was not suitable for acting as a martial artist. Ji Feiyu didn't want to mention it, just smiled.
"Girl, the two children are out." As he spoke, Zhang Ang and Miao'er peeked out from behind Fei'er.
"Yesterday, because there were some things in Jiangzhou, I didn't go away, so I was only a day late, and I hope the girl won't be surprised." Ji Feiyu talked about the reason why he couldn't go to the appointment yesterday, and saluted with the new moon with some guilt.
Xinyue glanced at the brothers and sisters of the Zhang family, but in the fifth or sixth day, her face looked better, if she could be taken care of, it must be a good thing, so she shook her head, "It's nothing more than one day, you two, just follow Ji Gongzi today, learn skills from Ji Gongzi's side, Zhang Ang, I told you, can you remember?" ”
"Study hard, take my sister out, and let her live well." Zhang Ang repeated Xinyue's words.
Xinyue nodded, "Okay, in this way, you will follow Ji Gongzi, serve well, as a slave, the only thing you have to keep in your heart, then you must be loyal." ”
"Zhang Ang takes my sister, thank you girl." As he spoke, the two knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the crescent moon in a dignified manner.
Ji Feiyu also stood up, said goodbye to Xinyue and left, Xinyue sent the three of them to the door, and after seeing the three of them leave, he turned around and went back to his room.
As soon as I sat down with my feet raised, I saw the clothes in my hand, and I reached out to pick up the clothes that had been cut and began to slowly disassemble the wrong place where I had sewn.
When Feng'er came in, she saw that Xinyue was making clothes, so she sat beside her and accompanied her to remove the stitches. Xinyue looked at Feng'er and said to her, "You go and do something else, I'll do this myself." ”
"Yes" said Feng'er, picked up another piece of clothing, and the master and servant began to work non-stop in their hands.
Liang Wei returned to his rented inn from outside Jinling City, the wind in Jinling was soft and wet, blowing people's bones hurt, not as cold as their Liang country, although biting, but also cold and comfortable.
As soon as he sat down, the attendant came in, "Prince, we installed it in Xishi Dawu and his two attendants the day before yesterday, and they have never been seen again, and there is no one in the residence, and the baggage is all there, has it been discovered by the great sage?" ”
Liang Wei thought for a while and asked, "Didn't you go to the government to check?" ”
"All the government offices in charge of bandits and other things in Beijing have been touched by their subordinates, but they have not been seen."
"What else?" Liang Wei asked.
"There is also the Yamen of the Luyasi and other special prisoners, the subordinates are incompetent, the guards there are really strict, and the subordinates are afraid of getting close to the grass and startling the snake."
"Those three rice buckets can't get to Luya Temple. Since there is no yamen in the capital... You go to the place where they do business in the West Market and see what's wrong. Also, go to the Jiang family to have a look, I saw the Jiang family's dog cub in the West Market that day. Liang Wei spoke very politely, and the great sage called the Liang people wild wolves, and they also responded with dogs.
"Yes," he said, and his subordinate turned to go out.
"Coming" As soon as Liang Wei's voice fell, two more people dressed as samurai came in from outside the door.
The two "princes" knelt in front of Liang Wei.
"How?" Liang Wei asked without raising his head.
"The Jincheng city defense map is placed in the Luya Temple, and the same one is Yanzhou."
"Yanzhou? There is even Yanzhou. As soon as he heard this, Liang Wei came to his senses.
Yanzhou was originally the capital of Yan State, a hundred years ago it was the fief of King Yan of Liang State, and later King Yan rebelled and established the country, and later the King of Liang took it as their responsibility to recapture Yanzhou. Liang Wei has always been reluctant to cross his terminally ill father, just to take Yanzhou as his first achievement after ascending the throne, so it is close at hand.
"Yes, our people desperately handed over the news, and it can't be wrong," the guard replied firmly.
"Well, in a few days it will be Chinese New Year's Eve, when the time comes, some people from the Luya Temple will definitely go home for the festival, and Zheng Xiao of the Luya Temple will also enter the palace to participate in the palace banquet, and we will act at that time."
"Yes" subordinates obeyed the order and immediately went down to prepare.
Liang Wei was the only one in the house again, and after a while, the guards who went out first came in and told Liang Wei what he had heard from the West Market, and Liang Wei frowned, "It's so stupid." ”
"My subordinates don't understand, please show it to Your Highness."
"It's okay, but our action is imminent, although Dawu's position is inconspicuous, it is also a matter of success or failure, hurry up and find someone to top."
"Yes," he said, and the guard turned to leave.
Liang Wei sank his mind, closed his eyes and recuperated, thinking back to the events of that day in the market, and opened his eyes for a moment, "Interesting, this woman, it's really interesting." ”
"What's interesting?" Liang Wei fixed his eyes, saw Rong Ying who was closing the door, the scimitar in his hand had already been pulled out halfway, and when he saw the person who came, he accepted it, "What are you doing?" ”
"I saw you coming to the market that day, but your men said you were out of town." may be in her own place, Rong Ying seems to be much more at ease.
On the other hand, Liang Wei was a little afraid and asked, "What do you want to see me for?" ”
"Let you leave, do you think your face is safe in this Jinling City?" Rong Ying sat next to the place where Liang Wei was sitting just now.
"It's my business."
"I advise you not to do your business." Rong Ying didn't enter Jinling City empty-handed, no matter how powerful Liang Wei's people were, they weren't nowhere to be found, and Rong Ying roughly knew what was going on these days.
"I also advise you, leave my business alone." Liang Wei rarely threatens others, but when he threatens, it will definitely not be a trivial matter.
