Chapter Ninety-Five: Reminiscing About the Past
"You, what do you want me to say about you, but you have to take care of other people's private affairs, that old lady Wei has come to the palace to complain, don't you make it difficult for me to do it!" Nan Shaohuang slapped his palm on the bookcase, angry.
"The emperor is angry!" The eunuchs who served on either side of him immediately knelt down.
Huo Lingxiao still stood there calmly, as if what the emperor said had nothing to do with him, for a long time......
He said leisurely: "How can this be a private matter? Deliberately framing the descendants of the martyrs, this is already a big crime, thinking that the Chen family is the wife of the Wei Mansion, only thirty boards were hit, if it is not punished, how can this allow General Wei under Jiuquan to rest in peace, how can this allow the soldiers in the frontier to continue to serve the country, if I don't take action, wouldn't this chill the hearts of the soldiers. ”
"You!" Emperor Nan Shao waved his sleeves and was speechless for a while.
"Mrs. Wei will give her some rewards and appeasement here, the minister has done nothing wrong in this matter! After the loyal ministers and martyrs, they must not suffer this grievance! Huo Lingxiao insisted on his own opinion.
Emperor Nanshao finally asked Huo Lingxiao to go back first, and then appeased Mrs. Wei and rewarded him.
Seeing off Mrs. Wei, Emperor Nan Shao fell into memories alone......
The battlefield was full of fighting, the war was raging, the horn sounded for several days, and the Southern Shao Kingdom was defeated again and again, and the city was about to be breached.
At that time, Emperor Nanshao was still a prince, and General Wei was still a striker, and the two had a deep friendship and fought side by side to kill the enemy, but the troops and grain and grass did not keep up, resulting in the defeat of Nanshao.
"What is the current situation of Wei Xianfeng, if the military training is not available anymore, I am afraid it will be difficult to win, and the battle will be lost." The Fifth Prince shook his head.
"Don't be afraid, the fifth prince, I have already come up with a way, we will march around the back of the mountain on this side and cut directly into the enemy's belly, plus the troops in front of us will have a glimmer of hope of victory!" The Guardians planted a small yellow flag on the hill on the map, indicating that they were going to cross the hill.
"Will this work?" The five princes don't believe in this one method very much, but only the current plan can work, and this is the only one that can save the entire three armies.
In the end, Wei Xianfeng vouched for the head of the man that the battle would definitely be defeated by the Five Princes, so he asked him to send someone to cut through the abdomen from the back of the mountain.
Wei Xianxian's method worked, and the enemy was in a hurry in an instant, and finally the five princes swore to attack in front, and finally recaptured the city, turning defeat into victory and recovering a city.
After that, the cooperation between the five princes and Wei Xianfeng became more and more tacit and more and more handy, so that the enemy country was defeated, and finally the enemy country ceded the land and begged for mercy.
For this reason, the emperor attaches great importance to the five princes, and the relationship between the five princes and Wei Xianfeng is also deeper.
After defeating the enemy country, the whole country of Nanshao was jubilant and lively, and the celebration wine was placed for three consecutive days.
"If I inherit my father's mantle one day, I will definitely let you be promoted to a knight!" The fifth prince raised his glass and said to Wei Xianxian.
"The five princes are serious, as a soldier, it is his duty to protect his family and defend the country." Wei Xianfeng replied modestly.
Soon, the five princes returned to Beijing in triumph, while Wei Xianfeng guarded the frontier......
Emperor Nan Shao remembered the past, everything was vivid, the former five princes and Wei Xianfeng were like brothers and sisters, he saved him many times, and finally Emperor Nan Shao symbolically locked Huo Lingxiao in order to deal with Mrs. Wei's symbolic confinement was regarded as a punishment for him.
In the Changle Palace, the smoke rises faintly, the pu fan in the hall shakes and shakes, and the fan is still swaying, the queen mother is lying on the rocking chair and closes her eyes to recuperate, and Aunt Yu is reciting Buddhist scriptures beside her.
"Zeshen is not too young, it's time to choose a princess for him." The Queen Mother said.
"There are a lot of noble ladies and nobles in the capital, and there are countless gentle, virtuous and virtuous people with both ability and integrity, I don't know if the Queen Mother wants to be the eleventh prince, which lady is referring to as the princess?" Aunt Yu put down the scriptures in her hand.
"In two days, it will be the day of the Hundred Flowers Banquet in the palace, and when the time comes, invite those official women of the right age into the palace, let Zeshen pick well, and he will definitely be able to choose the woman he likes." The Queen Mother had already made plans for Huo Zeshen, but she couldn't force him to choose a concubine, so she could only let him choose it himself.
"Then the slave will go and prepare the invitation card for the Hundred Flowers Banquet and send it to those official ladies."
said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, Huo Zeshen ran into the Changle Hall with Western Zhong Le Le Niu.
"Grandma Huang, Grandma Huang, look at this thing, it is said that it came here after crossing the ocean, this is called a clock, and it will call itself when it comes, you see." Huo Zeshen twisted the clockwork, turned it round and round, and after the hour hand pointed to twelve o'clock, a small bird bounced out and chirped.
The Queen Mother was immediately attracted by the clock, and reached out and clicked on the bird, which turned out to be made of wood, and the carving was lifelike.
"Do you like Grandma Huang?" Huo Zeshen asked.
"I like it, it's a fun little thing." The Queen Mother took the clock in her hand and looked at it again and again.
The atmosphere in the hall was joyful, and they were all curious about the principle of the clock, and Huo Zeshen explained the Tao at the head.
The Queen Mother told Huo Ze about the marriage, and Huo Zeshen learned that he didn't want to marry a wife for the time being.
"Zeshen, you're not too young, it's time to get married."
"No, my grandson hasn't had enough fun, and my grandson doesn't have a favorite candidate." Huo Zeshen started his coquettish mode again, and he was still frequently courteous to the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother knew the little Jiujiu in Huo Zeshen's heart, and asked Huo Zeshen if he couldn't let go of Wei Xiyue.
"Does Zeshen still remember Wei Xiyue?" The Queen Mother's phoenix eyes stared at Huo Zeshen tightly.
"What's the matter, Wei Xiyue's woman is very violent, she is not the type that her grandson likes, grandma Huang, don't mess with the mandarin duck spectrum!" Huo Zeshen's head shook like a rattle, for fear that the Queen Mother would marry Wei Xiyue to herself.
"If Zeshen doesn't have a favorite girl yet, then take a good look at it during the Hundred Flowers Banquet." The Queen Mother gently patted him on the shoulder.
Huo Zeshen has his own ideas, and he doesn't want the Queen Mother to interfere in his own affairs.
Concubine Wei asked Wei Liuming to meet in the small garden, the main purpose was to win her over.
"Liu Ming, I've been good to you since I was a child, right?" Wei Feiyue said very familiarly.
Wei Liuming took two steps back, "Second sister, what do you mean by this?" Since childhood, I and the two sisters, Qingxue, have relied on the care of the second sister, and they have also received a lot of favors, which is naturally not bad. ”
Wei Feiyue lifted the lotus step and walked to the rose pot, picked a red rose, and put it on the tips of Wei Liuming's hair. "Delicate flowers are matched with beauties, but there is an ugly girl in our Weifu Mansion who does not know the height of the sky and the height of the earth, and she is against me everywhere, what do you think I should do?"
This ugly girl naturally refers to Wei Xiyue, and as soon as Wei Xiyue returned home, she set up a killing stick, so that everyone did not dare to despise the mother and son.
"Liu Ming doesn't quite understand what the second sister means, although this rose is beautiful, but it is full of thorns, if you are a little careless and cut your hand, it will really be unlucky." Wei Liuming took off the roses from her hair and put them back in Wei Feiyue's hands.
"Liu Ming knows the current affairs as Junjie, at this time, you and my sisters should be of the same heart, unanimously to the outside world!" Wei Feiyue continued.
"Liu Ming is just a little woman, not a handsome man, she can't be on the stage, and the big sister is also our sister, how can she be unanimous with the outside world? I'm going to deliver tea to my grandmother, and my sister is leaving. Wei Liuming nodded slightly and left.
The roses in her hand were pinched into a ball by Wei Feiyue, thrown on the ground and trampled on a few feet, "Since Wei Liuming doesn't know how to lift, then I don't have to show mercy to your subordinates in the future!" ”
Wei Qingxue got some good-looking pearls in her hand, and she wanted to pull Wei Liuming to find Wei Xiyue together, all of which was looked at by Cuicui, who was secretly peeping, and when she saw the two sisters walking away, she immediately went back to the Golden Jade Pavilion to report.
"Big sister, do you think these flowers and hairpins look good?" Wei Qingxue picked up one or two and sent them to Wei Xiyue.
Wei Xiyue looked at the quality of the hairpin in the box, although it was not a finished product, but it was also exquisite, the butterfly shook the hairpin, and it was even more beautiful when it was worn on the head and trembled when walking.
"Beautiful! Qingxue, you really have a little good thing to think of me. Xiaohuan, go and get the carp hairpin from my dressing box. Wei Xiyue shouted at Xiaohuan.
Xiaohuan handed the carp hairpin to Wei Xiyue, Wei Xiyue said: "This hairpin was rewarded by the emperor before, you also know that my sister doesn't like to dress up in the past, this hairpin is good-looking, but my sister's appearance can't match this hairpin, so today, my sister will give this hairpin to you, I see that Qingxue must look good." ”
Wei Qingxue saw that the carp hairpin was transparent, but there seemed to be a silver-white texture inside the hairpin, and the carp on the hairpin head seemed to grow on the hairpin, and there was no trace of carving.
"Is this really for me?" Wei Qingxue happily held the hairpin in her arms, and looked at it carefully several times, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it.
"The eldest sister has always been full of words when she speaks, saying that she will send you when she sends you, and a good sister naturally has to make the rain and dew evenly wet, as for Liu Ming, I will send you this jade pendant, and the beauty matches the good jade." Wei Xiyue took out a fine jade jade pendant from the embroidery bag and helped Wei Liuming put it on her waist.
In the previous life, Wei Xiyue was arrogant and reckless, Wei Liuming secretly reminded her many times that Wei Feiyue was not a good person, Wei Xiyue not only listened to the admonition, but also went to speak in front of Wei Feiyue, so that Wei Liuming was beaten in vain, and finally in order to win over the children of the official family, Wei Liuming was pushed into the fire pit.
After Cuicui brought the news back to the Golden Jade Pavilion, she added fuel and vinegar to Wei Feiyue, and learned that Wei Liuming and Wei Qingxue had taken refuge in Wei Xiyue.
"These three young ladies are too ignorant of lifting, and they actually ran to take refuge in Wei Xiyue's little slut." Cuicui said hatefully.
"Well, if you don't leave Sunshine Avenue, then don't blame me." Wei Feiyue's ruthless little energy came up.
Cuicui threw her into the lotus pond last time Wei Xiyue threw her, causing her to be laughed at for a long time, and her heart was full of resentment, and she said vigorously.
Wei Feiyue was angry in her heart, and Wei Qingxue took refuge, but she didn't expect Wei Liuming to smell the same.
Wei Feiyue understands that Wei Qingxue will definitely go to the temple outside the city on the fifteenth day of every month to offer incense.
