Chapter 55: Obviously I Want Our Child
"I'm back." Kangxi Ye asked again: "How is it?"
He didn't even lift his head. The tone is calm and light. Such a dismissive attitude. It makes me more and more indignant about the situation in the Thirteenth Brother's Mansion. Maybe it's the catalysis of alcohol. My eyes filled with tears in an instant. Then overflow. Falling to the ground with a clatter. But I can't say anything.
Maybe my silence is too weird. Kangxi Ye raised his head and looked at me kneeling on the ground. Puzzled, he asked, "Why don't you talk back?"
My tears flowed. Can't go and say more. Kangxi Ye stepped down from the throne. Stand up in front of me: "What's wrong?"
I was finally willing to look up at him. Tears streamed down his cheeks into two streams: "Your Majesty. Please take care of Brother Thirteen more. The Thirteenth Brother's Mansion ...... It's so bad that it doesn't look good. The degree of food and clothing in the house. Not even half of the rich people. The four children hadn't seen meat for a long time. Skinny pathetic......"
"How is that possible. I suspended him though. But the supply from the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not stopped." This thing. It seems to have been beyond Kangxi's expectations.
I was in tears. Choked up and said, "Your Majesty. No one in the house is allowed to go out casually. All supplied. All have to go through the guards guarding the door. Most of the supply fell into the hands of the guards. The thirteenth sister-in-law had to exchange her jewelry with the guards for the necessary materials in the house. I'll go to the house. The thirteenth brother and thirteenth sister-in-law are still wearing old clothes from years ago. The thirteenth sister-in-law has no ornaments on her body."
I remembered the thirteenth sister-in-law's overly plain look. The heart became more and more unbearable: "Your Majesty. The thirteenth brother said. The thirteen sisters-in-law were left only when they were married. A pair of bracelets given by the thirteenth brother. The rest of the jewelry. It's all used to exchange food with the guards......"
"How did it come to this?"
"Back to the emperor. How about the thirteenth brother. Also your prince. Four children in the house. And also your grandchildren. Please be gracious. Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs send some food to use. It's time for children to grow their bodies. Where can you endure such a lack of nutrition? Even if it's an ordinary family. At this time, I won't cut off the child's meat."
The four children. Skinny awesomely. It hurts me so much. Saren's big eyes, which were already bright. Now it looks bigger and bigger on her skinny little face. Hongdun is so small. But there was no flesh on his face. Even Jia'er seems to have lost her baby fat. Hongchang is bigger. But they didn't grow any faster.
It hurts me a lot to think about it.
And Kangxi Ye also seemed to be shocked by what I said. He was silent. After a long time. But he asked me, "What did you do with it?"
I wiped tears from my face. He looked at him with a resolute face and said, "I asked if the guard who came out of the door was under the banner of the Fourteenth Master. Let Xiao Shunzi go and invite the fourteenth master. Now the two guards guarding the door have been taken away by the Fourteenth Master for disposal. Unnecessary cases. Jiya doesn't know."
Kangxi Ye walked back to the throne in silence and sat down. Look at me steadily. Silent. I just got on my knees. Wait for him to speak. No matter what he decides. For me. None of them will be unexpected. On the carriage back. I've thought of all the possibilities. Good or bad.
I'm in a hurry. It's a big deal that I don't care about the so-called trajectory of history. Just run away with the thirteenth brother's family and the fourth master.
The smell of alcohol climbed my head again. Makes me a little groggy. My body went limp. I had to support myself with my hands before kneeling firmly. I looked at Kangxi. The eyes are firm and clear.
Kangxi Ye sighed. He squinted at me and said, "Just do what you want. What do you think he needs in his house? Tell Liang Jiugong to send the decree. The old fourteen will send the proper people to guard it again."
I nodded, "Yes. That's what the Fourteenth Master said."
Kangxi Ye nodded: "Hmm. Very good...... "then. He sighed and waved his hand: "You go back and rest first. Aren't you going to go to the emperor's place for dinner in a while? When you go out. Let Liang Jiugong come in."
I stood up. Blessed body kneeling: "Ji Ya retires."
Back to the small courtyard. I hurriedly asked Lan Yue to boil water and bathe. The hot water vapor gradually evaporated the remaining alcohol in my body. I came to my senses completely. Look at the petals floating in the tub. I think this red as blood color is really dazzling.
Actually, it's just that I'm in a bad mood. That's why it's just a matter of angering the petals. Knowing though. But I still commanded coldly: "Lan Yue. Don't add these petals in the future. It's so dazzling to look at......"
Lan Yue was stunned. Maybe I've never heard such a tone. Maybe it was because I was puzzled by my sudden anger. She was stunned for a moment. He came up to him and said, "Slave, get rid of all these petals. Don't be angry."
I pouted. nodded a little aggrieved.
Why am I angry. Why wronged. These emotions come too inexplicably. I can't help but feel a little overly emotional. But I just want to be so willful. Can't you. Obviously, the four masters all said that it was okay. The fourth master only said yesterday that he likes me to be a little willful occasionally......
Think so. He said yes and that. But where can I really be so willful? Why. You can't live as you want. Why. To be so vain and wronged. It's pretending to be like this.
"Hate. Dislike. Nasty." I flapped the water with vent. Water splashes out. Wetted the ground around. Wet my hair. Wet Lan Yue's clothes. It also left tears on my face.
Lan Yue hurriedly took a clean cloth towel to wipe my face. His mouth soothed: "Gege, what's wrong. What are you angry about, you're yelling at me. Don't do that. I was scared to see ......."
I gasped. I can't put into words how I feel in my heart. I feel aggrieved. I feel suffocated. It was like a thousand-pound stone on my chest. Makes me breathless.
All this ......
All of it......
Why should I be so careful? Why do I have to look forward and backward so much?
Big gasp. I watched all this with hatred. I think it's really hateful. I am reflected in the water. Long hair sticking wet to the face. The pale face and bloodless lips made me feel like a ghost.
The face is abominable. Am I the most hateful of all?
I felt as if I was going crazy. But why the hell am I doing this? It was the withering of the Thirteenth Brother's Mansion that stimulated me. It's still Kangxi's attitude that makes me dissatisfied.
Or. Just because. Nian Yuyao is pregnant......
Nian Yuyao is pregnant......
She was pregnant with my fourth master's child. No matter how bad she is. Even if he was given such a medicine by the fourth master. At least. She can conceive a child......
And me. Why do I have to take that pill......
I'm ......
Would love ......
Our children......
