Chapter 368: Difficult to Settle
Ke Bing is a smart person in ice and snow, so he made a look, motioned to Chunlan and the others to withdraw first, personally sorted out Qin Siyue (Long Xi)'s hair, and said softly: "Auntie, you have given birth twice, and you should know that you have just been confinement, not to mention that you have added a pair of brothers in a row." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) was uneasy after all: "Two debt collectors!"
Ke Bing said with a smile: "Auntie, I also had a face when I gave birth to Song'er earlier, and then I got a conditioning prescription by chance, and the effect was seen in three or five days, and the seal disappeared after ten days." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) hurriedly asked, "Where is Fangzi?" I will ask someone to pick it up with you." β
"I remember, I'll just copy it for you. "But Bing looked left and right, not to mention the place where he wrote, it was not easy to even settle down.
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) finally returned to normal: "You speak, I listen." β
"It's very easy to say. But Bing said while thinking, "Take two coins of pearl powder and a cup of goat's milk, squeeze the tomatoes into juice and mix, and put an eyebrow pencil on the face every day before meals, and reduce it in the morning and evening." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) remembered it carefully, but Bing said again: "Then take white vinegar and soak the egg white, add a taste of notoginseng, wash your face and make your complexion whiter, and soak it in angelica every day, you can adjust the internal and external nourishment." β
When Mrs. Zhang heard the news and rushed to the dust, the dust had already settled, and she didn't think that her daughter-in-law would suddenly dislike her grandson for the sake of appearance, and made up her mind to beat her son.
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) went home at night, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the mansion, a small servant in the main courtyard came to stop him: "Uncle, Mrs. ordered, let you go over to see her as soon as you come back." β
Even if it is a son, after all, he has already started a family, and Mrs. Zhang should be tactful when she asks: "When a woman's family gives birth to a child, it can be regarded as a back and forth from the ghost gate, and the princess is worthy of you and the Gu familyβ"
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) was puzzled: "Madam, what are you doing with this?"
Mrs. Zhang made it clear and said: "I want to admonish you, young couples and old companions, even if the princess is the first beauty of the Daqing Dynasty, even if you give birth to two sons, you will change, you are not allowed to dislike it." β
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) was helpless: "Mother, last time you said this, you still had no time to accompany her because I was busy with official business, this time I remembered the lesson and went home every day according to the hour." β
Mrs. Zhang was a little relieved: "You have a number, the princess has just come out of confinement, and her temperament has not stabilized, so you should pay attention to it." β
"Yes" Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) agreed, but wondered in his heart: What's the matter?
Back in the East Compound, Dongmei stopped outside and quietly told her about today's events, Gu Changbai (Mokun) waved his hand: "Got it." β
Princess Chaoyun, who is suspected of postpartum syndrome, began to review her attitude towards the child after returning to normal, and the two babies were all resting on the big bed.
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) took a step forward and retreated: "Carry the child to the East Chamber." β
"Huh?" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) raised her head, "What are you doing with the East Chamber?"
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun)'s answer was indirectly clear: "You are all out of confinement, leaving them here to get in the way." β
Although it was an old husband and wife, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) still blushed, hesitated and asked, "Have I become a lot uglier?" You tell the truth, I don't blame you. β
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) looked his wife up and down: "You mean the spots on your face? Mr. Zao, Kui'er and Xuan'er were even more powerful than they are now, and they don't recover?"
"Really?" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) was skeptical.
"Is it good to lie to you?" Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) said with a smile, "There is no one more beautiful than you in the Mandaqing Dynasty, and they will be happy and happy for two days!"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) couldn't help laughing: "It's good if you don't dislike it." β
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) took his wife into his arms and hugged him: "Siyue, you can think like this, a beautiful woman who is the best in the world can damage her appearance and reproduce for another man, what kind of affection should this be!"
Daddy and mother are affectionate, and the doll is humming and chirping. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) pushed her husband away and asked, "Xuan'er is like you, Kui'er is like me, Mao'er is like the master, these two have also grown, who do you look like?"
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) took a serious look: "Qin fold?"
"Do you also think like their third uncle?" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) was excited, "I pondered for a long time this afternoon, and I always felt that these two children looked like the third brother, and when the third brother was a child, I painted a small portrait of him, and then gave it to my younger siblings, and let her take it out for comparison another day." β
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) smiled: "My nephew followed my uncle, and I didn't go outside the market." β
"Women are the ones who please themselves", women love beauty, most of the reason is that they care too much about men's opinions, since men are "in the eyes of their lovers", women don't have to care too much.
After one night, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) became the amiable and confident princess Chaoyun in Ke Bing's heart.
After teasing the child for a while, Ke Bing asked, "Why haven't you seen Brother Mao in the past two days?"
"I'm in the palace. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) sighed, "The crown princess is not at ease, so she has to ask him to be a companion to the imperial grandsonββ"
"You mean our familyβ" Ke Bing hesitated, "Brother Ke Mao was appointed by Emperor Taizong to accompany the emperor's grandson when Emperor Taizong was there. β
"Niece and daughter-in-law, the men of the Gu family can settle accounts, but they are probably not as shrewd as the women of the Gu family. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) smiled bitterly, "The aftermath of the Taizong Dynasty's seizure of the heir has not yet dissipated, and the battle for the crown prince of the next generation is in front of us, our Aunt Yuan is really blessed to give birth to the three grandsons of the East Palace, the Gu family, the Xu family, the Huang family, and the Mu family - their momentum is not comparable to that of the Zhen family in the past." β
Ke Bing only said, "You are here." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) shook her head: "I am the daughter-in-law of the Gu family after all." β
Ke Bing was silent.
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) was just about to speak, and the maid from the East Mansion came back and forth: "Young grandmother, someone from the Qin family came to say that it was the old illness of the old master of the in-laws, and the eldest grandmother has sent a post from the house to invite the imperial doctor, and sent a slave to inform the young grandmother." β
Ke Bing hurriedly got up and said goodbye: "Ming'er will come again to say hello to my aunt." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) nodded: "If you have a place to find me, just send someone to say." β
But Bing said thank you.
Danqi's stomach is indeed expensive, although Qin Siyue (Long Xi) "kills two birds with one stone", Gu Lao Taijun still never let go of his original plan, and told Gu Yin after thinking about the plan in his heart.
Gu Yin paid more attention to the present: "Old lady, my son's four grandsons, plus the princess's shadow, but I only give the title to each person, and this doesn't include Lian'er, you let your son give the title to the second brother, what about Brother Ying'er?"
Old Taijun Gu lowered his voice: "Think about it, Zheng'er has a knighthood, Dan Qi is the eldest daughter of the marquis, and the royal grandson is more decent.
Gu Yin didn't buy it: "The grandson of the Great Emperor of the East Palace is five years old." β
"Can the He family compare with the Gu family?The Queen Mother-can you grow your ambition!" Gu Lao Taijun almost pierced the window paper: The He family's biggest reliance is the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is old, and there are mountains and rivers that are low, at that time, right?!
Gu Yin smiled coldly: "Old lady, the Shenlong General's Mansion has been passed on to his son, and it is already incomparably rich, Changbai is less than thirty years old, he is a first-class duke, a feudal country, and Lian'er is from a human background, and he is already a director of the Internal Affairs Office with the title of four grades, what about his son?"
"Uh-" Old Mrs. Gu was speechless, and after a long time, she said, "You should be filial to me and help your brother and nephews and nieces?"
"You can't gamble with the safety of my two sons and four grandchildren. Gu Yin was a little impatient, "Besides, the four grandsons of my son are all the sons of the princess's relatives, I pretended to be generous in front of you, and His Royal Highness didn't nod his head there, what can you do?
Old Taijun Gu hurriedly said: "As long as you nod, I will beg the princess there." β
Hell if the princess can say yes.
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) got the information report, and asked Gu Changbai (Mokun) at night: "Ming'er, you take a rest." β
"yes. Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) asked rhetorically, "You want to go out?"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) said lightly: "I haven't entered the palace for a long time, tomorrow I will accompany the child and me to ask the old lady and the emperor's aunt and uncle." β
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) responded: "Okay." β
The small family is already everyone's mouth, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) is holding two small cars, Gu Changbai (Mokun) and Gu Kui are riding horses, Gu Mao is still young, and Gu Xuan has a four-carrying sedan chair, plus a maid, a guard, a nurse nanny, and half of the street is covered.
When they arrived at the forbidden house, Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) led Gu Kui and Gu Mao to the Qianqing Palace, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) and Gu Xuan changed their steps, and only came down with their son at the gate of Kunning Palace.
When Queen Shi saw the twins for the first time, she was full of relief and said: "I have suffered a lot, and now it is worth it." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) made a big salute: "In the past few months, my aunt has bothered a lot, and it is all the sins of the sons. β
"Hurry up. The queen smiled, "Why did you give birth to a child?"
The mother and son talked for a while, and the inner supervisor of the Qianqing Palace went back and forth: "Master Niangniang, long live the Lord has a will, and a family banquet will be held in Ningshou Palace at noon today to entertain the two little sons." β
The queen waved her hand to retreat, and said with a smile to Qin Siyue (Long Xi): "Let's go over." β
The queen mother saw that the two children liked it very much, and rewarded them with a lot of expensive meeting gifts, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) said on behalf of her son Xie En: "I am like a pump, the queen's aunt rewards, and you also reward - the younger generations do not respect the elders, but ask the elders to break the bank." β
"The first time I saw my great-grandson, this is what I should do!" the queen mother said with a smile, "I asked them to spread the mats you sent during the Dragon Boat Festival, which is cooler than the one from the Internal Affairs Office." β
"If you like it, it's fine. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) said with a smile, "This is woven from the ice silk of the Tianshan Mountains, and there are no mosquitoes in the summer." β
"It's good to keep such a thing for yourself, I am a man who has risen from heaven to earth, your aunt is filial, no one lacks me, you spend money to build a big garden, seeing that there are four brothers, Sister Xuan should discuss marriage for another round, and she should plan for them. The Queen Mother patted Qin Siyue (Long Xi)'s hand, "I understand your intentions." β
After another while, Concubine Li, Concubine Li, and the princesses and princesses arrived one after another, and the emperor brought his sons and Gu Changbai (Mokun) and his sons and sons to come over, and asked the queen mother to go to see Gu Ming and Gu Ying's brothers.
The twins and the dragon and phoenix fetuses are "rare species" in the royal family, Yongdong said with a smile: "My sister is capable inside and outside, even the children are so pleasing, and the next time they are reborn, maybe they will be a pair of girls." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) glanced at Yonglin and said, "Do I have such a large amount of financial resources to prepare a dowry?"
Yongdong knows Qin Siyue's (Longxi) family background: "You are arrogant. β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) smiled slightly: "While there is no meal, the son has to ask the imperial uncle for a favor." β
The emperor looked at her in surprise: "Tell me about it." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) took out a notebook from her sleeve and presented it: "I want to ask for your permission to accept this matter, and let the ministers participate in the decision in the future." β
The Emperor nodded: "This is easy." "Because of the order of Xia Shouzhong," take my Zhu pen. β
The Queen Mother was disgusted: "A family banquet can't miss government affairs." β
The emperor smiled: "What the queen mother said is true. β
The emperor has four daughters-in-law, plus two concubines, the new princess and the little princess of Weicheng, the queen mother and Qin Siyue (Longxi) mother and daughter, just a table. On the man's side, there are the crown prince and the six princes, the three royal grandsons, and the three father and son of Gu Changbai (Mokun), which also happens to be a big table.
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) looked at the concubine Shufei who was specially allowed to sit at the table, and her heart was full of sympathy: no matter how noble the side room is, it is also a concubine, and Li Guifei also gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, in terms of grade, in addition to the queen mother, Taizong concubine and the queen, only she and the crown princess are slightly higher than half a chip - the latter two are still juniors. This is also a disguised birth at the wrong time, not to mention far away, the biological mother of the king of Yizhi County, Concubine Ming, relied on her son to be the eldest son of the emperor, and formed the "Hum Ha Second General" of Taizong's harem with Concubine Zhen Gui, which directly brought out the head of the queen mother. Although it is now left in the apse of the green lantern ancient Buddha three volumes of scriptures, there has been a time of glory. Look at Li Guifei and Li Shufei again, from Queen Shi to the East Palace, these two didn't even make waves, no matter how many Wei Zifu who counterattacked the main room in the past dynasties, Her Royal Highness Princess Chaoyun didn't see that Li Guifei had the potential to become Tang Xuanzong's biological mother.
After three rounds of drinking, Qin Siyue (Long Xi) swept her eyes and bowed to the queen mother-in-law and daughter-in-law: "I'll go and have a drink with the emperor's uncle." β
said that he was going to toast the emperor, but Qin Siyue (Long Xi) aimed at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who was second seated.
Yonglin hurriedly stood up: "Sister." β
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) raised her cup: "Third brother, when Emperor Taizong was here, the two of us discussed the old history, and there was a passage of "The gentleman's Ze, the fifth generation will be beheaded", do you remember?"
"Naturally remember. Yonglin Zhengse said, "The first 25 years of the Son of Heaven is the lord of the business, and he will know the sufferings of the people; the second 25 years of the Son of Heaven is the diligent monarch, because the country is coarse, and he cannot be a little slack; the second 25 years of the Son of Heaven is the monarch of hard work, and the internal and external troubles have been settled since then; the Son of Heaven is the monarch of nothingness for a hundred years, inheriting the law of the ancestors and accumulating the wealth of all the people; the fifth generation of the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, and the decline of the country is born from thisββ"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) asked: "Five generations are not declining, what is the battle?"
Yonglin replied: "The flexibility of the law: do not rejoice in the great achievements of the four seas and abandon the old system of the law, and do not get by and follow the rules because of current affairs. β
"Not only the emperor, but everything in the world is nothing but this. Qin Siyue (Longxi) drank it all, "The Gu family has been counted from the great-grandfather, so far the fourth generation and the third duke, Yu Kwai Mao Mingying brothers, just five generations, I borrowed the honor and favor of Taizong and the emperor's uncle, and lived in the position of a thousand times, the husband's family was honored and favored, and the nobles were extremely strong, and the one who was afraid was suspicious of the Son of Heaven and killed the meritorious deeds in vain;
The chopsticks in Gu Changbai's (Mo Kun) hand fell in response, and a drop of cold sweat flowed down the corner of his forehead.
It was the emperor who broke the deadlock: "What you said is good for me to suspect that Changbai has different aspirations." β
"Uncle Huang, the capital Su Rui is domineering, but Yu Yuanxun, only Hou Feng, pretending to be Gyeonggi authority despised the Son of Heaven, and was finally killed. Gu Changbai (Mokun) is an important position in Sima, there are in-laws outside the court, and the inner sister sees the East Palace, the imperial uncle is better than Zhou Wu, and the third brother is like Zhou Xuan, who is Zhou Jing, it still needs to be seen. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) put down the wine glass, "Emperor Taizong Yan'er and Empress Taimu made a decision on the spot, saving his uncle's family from danger, and it was better than him, but at that time, in order to protect his descendants, his sons and daughters would follow Queen Dugu, and the husband would be 'difficult to ride a tiger'. β
The emperor reluctantly smiled and said, "I take Changbai as my henchman and Changbai as my concubine, how can I bear to bear it?"
"The emperor's uncle is getting more and more regular. "Qin Siyue (Long Xi) holds the pot in his hand," Liu Song Tan Daoji, known as the Great Wall of the Southern Dynasty, died as a loyal general with grievances, and lived - may not be a usurper Xiao Chen. β
The emperor poured wine from her: "In your opinion, do I need to imitate Emperor Wen of Song?"
"Not really. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) summoned Yongzong to him, "Erchen is willing to ask for the grace of the three generations of the Son of Heaven, and when he is suspicious the next day, please dismiss the Gu Men and give Botian ten acres for a living!"
There was silence.
The Queen Mother couldn't help but say, "Why is this!"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) smiled slightly: "People have no long-term worries, there must be near-term worries, and the minister is presumptuous to ask the emperor's uncle to allow the third brother to ask for Yongzong's promise." β
The queen suddenly realized, and the side interjected: "This request should be granted." β
Although the emperor was puzzled, when he saw his wife speak, he responded, and Yonglin followed his father's example and drank a cup for his son.
"Today's family banquet, don't say these unlucky words again" The emperor glanced at Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) with a pale face, "Look at Changbai who scares him!"
Qin Siyue (Long Xi) sat down: "Always being afraid is not necessarily a bad thing. β
Coming out of the palace, Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) hugged his son and squeezed into the carriage.
After hesitating for a moment, Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) asked tentatively, "Are you afraid that my high merit will lead to death?"
"Of courseβ" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) opened her eyes, "It's notβ"
Gu Changbai (Mo Kun) was puzzled: "Then you-"
"Brother Changbai, there are some things that I can mix in but don't allow you to go one step further. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) smiled faintly, "Looking for a way back for the Gu family today, I should be on Yongzong, if it is not him in the future, what can the Gu family do?"
