Chapter 462: Return to Beijing
Late July.
Rao is capital is still very hot, and everyone still packed up and went back to their respective places.
Gu Qinghuan sat in the carriage, only feeling that he was really bored early in the morning.
"It's a pity this year, I don't have a chance to go shopping, it's too hot." Gu Qinghuan lifted the curtain, even though there was a heat wave spraying outside, she still had to change the air.
If it weren't for the imminent wedding of the prince, Gu Qinghuan felt that Kangxi Ye would be willing to stay until September.
At that time, it was already autumn and cool, and the scenery of Changchun Garden should be very good.
"It's okay, there will be more opportunities to go to Changchun Garden in the future."
Yin Zhen replied: "If you think it's too hot, you can take someone to live in Zhuangzi on the outskirts of Beijing for a few days." ”
Gu Qinghuan was shocked when he heard this, and asked, "Are you willing?" ”
Before, she talked to the nobles for a while, and Yinzhen came to pick her up in a hurry.
It's good now, they all asked her to live in Zhuangzi, and she was disgusted?
"Nothing is more important than having a good time. And..."The corners of Yinzhen's mouth raised, and said, "I think, if you miss me, you will come back, right?" ”
These words, with three points of confidence, three points of pleading, and three points of coquettishness.
Such a tone came out of Yinzhen's mouth, which really made Gu Qinghuan feel that he couldn't refuse.
"Hmm." Gu Qinghuan nodded, and said, "But not for the time being, I still have an appointment with Ah Xue." In addition, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's wedding is imminent, so we also have to think about gift-giving. ”
And...
The matter over there in the Third Elder Brother's Mansion seemed to come to an abrupt end here.
After Dong E Linglong returned to Dong E's house, the rest of the matter seemed to be gone.
According to the news inquired by Fu Chaxue, Dong Elinglong's Ama was very angry about this incident, and immediately asked Dong Elinglong to quickly apologize to Concubine Rong and Yinzhi.
Then, obediently return to the Third Elder Brother's Mansion, and be cautious in the future, and never continue with your own temperament again. It is a normal thing for the emperor to take a concubine.
But Dong E Linglong seemed to have eaten the scales and had an iron heart, but she refused.
Ah Xi was not originally willing to arrange it, and later she became pregnant and hid it from herself. Going around and around, I heard that it's still a son! It was just after her son's death.
Dong E Linglong has been strong since she was a child, and she really can't swallow this breath.
Dong E's delicate Ama saw that her daughter was stubborn, so she went to her mother. Who knew that this mother was very protective of her young daughter, and she didn't follow the persuasion.
After going back and forth, the two sides were at a stalemate, and then there was no follow-up.
Yinzhi was there, and Fu Chaxue didn't know what was going on. But Fu Chaxue knows Concubine Rong's personality, this matter is already like this, even if Yinzhi has a good temperament, Concubine Rong will never allow her son to go to Dong E Linglong first.
As for Kangxi's thoughts, it's easy to guess.
If Dong E Linglong is willing to apologize, it can also save face for the royal family. In the final analysis, this is what he refers to to marry, and it is also to give Dong E's family a decent face.
If it is really reconciled, it is not a good thing.
As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than destroy a marriage. At this time, many people also think the same way.
"The congratulatory gift to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I also have some eyebrows. Let Su Peisheng hand over the list to you later, and see if there are any additions and modifications. ”
Yin Zhen brought Gu Qinghuan over and said, "It's still some time before I get home." Are you sleepy? I'm out so early today, can I rest for a while? ”
Gu Qinghuan was a little sleepy, and after answering, he leaned on Yinzhen's shoulder and narrowed.
When he returned to the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion, Gu Qinghuan glanced at the two stone lions at the door, but he didn't have the cordial feeling he had before. I just want to get into the house as quickly as possible, to a place with an ice basin, so that it is cool and cool.
She's not a big fan of air conditioning, but it's too hot to stand it.
After returning to the house, Yinzhen said that he was going back to the Criminal Department, but before he entered the mansion, he raised his feet and walked out again.
Gu Qinghuan also went back by himself, and as soon as he arrived in the courtyard, he saw Li Gege and Song Gege, as well as the maids and eunuchs in the backyard, standing neatly, waiting for Gu Qinghuan to come back.
This is also a matter of rules, Gu Qinghuan saw this and said: "On such a hot day, you can all go back and rest in the Li and Song families." Each of them is busy with their own things. ”
When the crowd had answered, they turned and left.
Li Gege stood in place, glanced at Gu Qinghuan, and did not leave immediately. It wasn't until Song Gegra on her side gave her a moment that she seemed to react.
Well?
Gu Qinghuan seemed to notice something unusual, but before he could ask more, Song Gege had already pulled Li Gege away.
When he returned to his own house, Gu Qinghuan called Duchun over.
Changchun Garden and his party, Twilight Spring was left in the Fourth Elder Brother's Mansion to guard. Gu Qinghuan asked Du Chun about the situation during her absence from home, but it was almost as imagined, and nothing happened.
Later, the two discussed the matter of gift-giving on the prince's upcoming wedding banquet.
Although Yinzhen said that he would be concerned about this matter, he would ask Su Peisheng to draw up a list and send it to Gu Qinghuan later. But Yinzhen was so busy in the past, in these things, Gu Qinghuan was still willing to help where he could help.
After a while, it's time for lunch.
Who would have thought that Gu Qinghuan was just about to raise his feet to go to the dining room, when he pushed open the door, a gust of wind blew in front of him.
This gust of wind is not as hot as the imagined summer heatwave. But... With a bit of a moist smell.
As soon as he looked up, Gu Qinghuan realized that he didn't know when, the sunny sky was already a little overcast at this time. The clouds were thick, and it was time for rain.
"It's going to rain."
Gu Qinghuan looked at this momentum, hurriedly pointed to the potted plants in the courtyard, and said, "Those potted flowers look delicate, they will be hit by the rain in a while, so let people move the potted plants to the bottom of the verandah, right?" ”
Flowers are more delicate than people.
"The slave is going to call Xiao Shunzi to move the flowers."
Ah Shuang said with a grin, and went to find Xiao Shunzi.
On the other side, Du Chun said: "The capital has been hot and humid for several days, and it can be cool and cool when it rains." It's almost autumn, so it's going to cool down slowly. ”
Gu Qinghuan naturally had no objections, so he went to lunch.
The nap is accompanied by the sound of thunder and rain outside. Although the momentum was huge, Gu Qinghuan seemed to sleep extra sweetly.
Maybe it's really not so stuffy, and the peach dew lit in the house smells better.
When I woke up, the sound outside was much quieter. Gu Qinghuan yawned, went to the window and looked out, but vaguely heard the sound of people talking.
