Chapter 175: Knowing that it is a lychee
Early the next morning, Nianyun asked for a decree and announced that Guo Jun would come to Penglai Palace.
When Guo Yan came over, Nian Yun didn't know where to start, but he sat down silently and drank a cup of tea. But Guo Yan couldn't help it, "Nianyun, but what do you want to say to me, I called someone over early this morning, just to see if you can drink tea here?" ”
In the end, what should be said should still be said, and what should be asked should be asked clearly and clearly.
Nianyun put down the teacup and said, "Third brother, don't hide it from me, you and Zheng Qiaoqiao...... What the hell is going on? ”
Guo Yan was a little embarrassed, Nian Yun saw that he couldn't say anything, so he simply sent the pothos and fennel away, and Guo Yan told her about the events of that day.
After he finished speaking, Nian Yun asked, "Third brother, but you and Zheng Qiaoqiao, have already had a ...... Skin-to-skin, have you ever thought about what to do? ”
Guo Yan smiled bitterly: "What should I do?" What can I do, you don't know it, I have long looked down on the affairs of men and women over the years, and it is enough to have Chang'er and Chu'er, besides, the Zheng family is not a person who keeps to himself......"
The Guo family's family motto has always forbidden children and grandchildren's wives and concubines to disturb the family's house. Starting from Ziyigong, there are at most two or three wives and concubines in the family, and such scheming and flowery women are not allowed to enter the door.
Nian Yun sighed lightly, "Third brother, I know, I know all this, but ...... Zheng Qiaoqiao's belly is pregnant with your child......"
Guo Yan was stunned for a moment, originally he was still surprised how Nianyun suddenly asked him about this, how could he not have thought of this stubble.
After a while, he shook his head resolutely, "It's a child who shouldn't be there, I won't recognize him, it's better to dispose of it as soon as possible." ”
Nian Yun's hand holding the teacup froze for a moment, "Third brother, but this may be your only heir......"
Guo Yan looked at her, "No, for me, in the early years, there may have been some hope, but now, it doesn't matter." As I said, I'll just treat You'er and Wanwan as if they were my children. ”
Nian Yun walked up to him, "No, no, third brother, this is different, my child is His Majesty's child, the prince and the princess, after a hundred years, we can't inherit the incense for you......"
Guo Yan smiled, "What's the difference, if it's just for incense, the eldest brother has several children under his knees, and I will follow one of them, why not?" ”
But the eldest brother is the eldest brother, he and the two of them are actually half-brothers, how is this the same?
In the end, the third brother still dislikes Zheng Qiaoqiao, and he is afraid that he will make the family restless, and he is afraid that he will wronged Chang'er and Chu'er.
Nian Yun was silent for a moment, and said, "If the third brother really doesn't like Zheng Qiaoqiao, wait for her to give birth to the child well, in the end, it will be your only flesh and blood." It doesn't matter if you leave your son to go to your mother, or if you go to Chang'er's knees, don't wronged your child. ”
Guo Yan was very stubborn this time, and put the teacup in his hand on the table, "When it comes out of her belly, it must be a bane, what's the use of keeping it?" The thought of half of his blood flowing from him made me have no children! ”
Guo Yan had almost never said such heavy words in front of Nian Yun, and Nian Yun froze for a while. She originally thought that for men, even if they didn't like a woman, the child was important in the end, but she really didn't expect Guo Lu to reject that woman and the child in her womb like this.
This kind of persuasion obviously can't continue, Nianyun sighed, and simply didn't mention this matter again.
When Li Chun came to Penglai in the evening, he felt that the atmosphere in the Penglai Hall was a little strange, and there seemed to be a vague medicinal fragrance in the courtyard.
Li Chun was a little surprised, and hurriedly took three steps and two steps into Nianyun's house, "Nianyun, but you are not feeling well, how can you make the yard smell of medicine?" ”
But when he came in, he felt that something was wrong, Nianyun had always been cautious, the medicine she drank by herself would definitely only be in the main hall, and the four palace people around her would watch the frying with their own eyes. But after he came in, he felt that the smell of medicine was light, and it could be seen that it was not the medicine that was fried in the main hall.
When Nian Yun saw him come in, he stood up and went to greet him, "Your Majesty......"
Li Chun hurriedly grabbed her, and when he saw her frowning, he pulled her into his arms and gently stroked her back, "What's wrong?" ”
Nianyun leaned in his arms for a moment, as if he had finally gathered some strength, before he struggled out, took two steps back, and knelt down in front of him, "Your Majesty, Nianyun is guilty." ”
Li Chun hurriedly pulled her up, helped her sit on the edge of the couch, and sat down beside her, "Nianyun, you are with me, why do you need to do this?" But if you have anything to say, just say it. ”
Nian Yun hesitated for a moment, and said with some difficulty: "Your Majesty, Nian Yun has no way to go, the third brother made a mistake, please punish Your Majesty!" ”
Li Chun was a little surprised, so Nianyun told him everything about Guo Qian and Zheng Qiaoqiao, and left Zheng Qiaoqiao to raise a baby in the side hall of Penglai Palace, but Guo Qian was unwilling to admit the child.
Li Chun said: "I still think it's a big deal, isn't it just a palace maid, with your dowry money and the furniture you saved from opening a shop outside, can't you even afford to support a pregnant woman or a child?" ”
"This ......" Nian Yun raised his head in surprise, "Your Majesty means ......"
Li Chun snorted lightly, and reached out to scrape the tip of Nianyun's nose dotingly, "What else can it mean, Guo San is not in a good mood now, so if you don't admit it, you won't admit it." You can keep it, and when you are older, you will send it to Chang'er, I am afraid that she will hold it in the palm of her hand all day long. ”
Nian Yun still had some doubts, "This ...... After all, it's not Chang'er's biological ......"
Li Chun smiled, "Ning'er was not born by you, but she was the first child you brought along, isn't it closer than You'er?" ”
Thinking about it, Nian Yun's face finally relaxed, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, Your Majesty still understands it." ”
At that moment, Nianyun also put his mind at ease, since this matter has been explained clearly to His Majesty, he is not afraid that someone will talk about this again. As long as His Majesty does not pursue the charge of the third elder brother for "defiling the palace", there will be no hindrance.
Speaking of which, His Majesty still spoils her in the end.
This Zheng Qiaoqiao has reined in his former cleverness, and he is particularly obedient in Penglai Palace. Usually Nianyun sends her something, she takes it, and if she doesn't give it, she doesn't take the initiative to ask for it, and she is still good at serving, and she is not picky.
In the end, she was pregnant with Guo Yan's child, and Nianyun didn't want to treat her harshly, so seeing that she began to gradually show her arms, the close-fitting and comfortable clothes were constantly sent to the side hall, and two little palace maids were specially dialed to serve her in her daily life, and the imperial doctor also came to ask for peace every three days, but she was not allowed to walk around outside.
Peaceful and peaceful months have passed, and in the blink of an eye, it is June.
The weather was very hot, and the only sound of cicadas could be heard outside, making the already steamer-like air feel even hotter and hotter. Since the beginning of the month, Penglai Hall has to go to get ice cubes from time to time to cool off.
Nian Yun sat in the dormitory wearing a light shirt, this Penglai Hall was close to the Taiye Pool, and there was occasionally a cool breeze blowing on the lake, but it was not very unbearable.
Fennel stood behind her and fanned her, and Nianyun casually picked up the account book sent by the Liushang Bureau to look through it. After turning a few pages, Nian Yun remembered something else and asked, "Fennel, can I send that chilled plum soup to Your Majesty today?" ”
Fennel smiled: "Niangniang and Your Majesty are more and more like newlyweds, Your Majesty has any good things to send to Niangniang, and Niangniang thinks about His Majesty's hot and cold all day." ”
Nian Yun smiled and patted the back of her hand, "Your Majesty is so busy that you hit the back of your head with your feet, where can you take care of yourself, there are only a few people in the palace, I don't think about him, who else can I expect to think?" ”
At the same time, he quipped: "You girl, shouldn't you blame me for not finding a wishful husband for you earlier?" If you want to be a man, you might as well have it, then the Shence Army Yu Lin Weizhong has a crush on whichever you like, just say, which one you like, and this palace also has a way to do what you want. ”
Fennel "snorted" and said: "Niangniang don't make up slaves and maids, slaves and maids are blessed to accompany Niangniang in this life, who rarely marries out to wash and cook for that stinky man, and makes people shout three or four!" ”
Nianyun laughed out loud, and the palace maids around her were all raised. The four of them are all female officials of the fifth grade, and the first one outside is the middle of the imperial history and the Luoyang County Order.
Such an identity and status have just been in the palace for all these years, delaying some time. If you marry a little guard, you are actually condescending, and if you are still treated as an ordinary woman by a man at home, it is really better not to marry.
With her, although life is good, but I can't enjoy the blessings of my children and grandchildren around my knees. When you get old, if you are lonely, you have to make a meal with the eunuch and father-in-law in the palace.
Nianyun came to his senses about the affairs of these palace maids, and heard the palace maids outside report, "Niangniang, Your Majesty has sent something to Niangniang." ”
"Bring it in."
The person who came in was Xue Qixi, holding a large white jade plate in his hand, which contained many ice cubes, and on top of the ice cubes, there were two large bunches of fruits, which were full of fruity fragrance. The fruit had a rough shell, with many small bumps, bright red colors, lined with a few bright green leaves, and it was already very attractive just by looking at it.
Qixi put the plate on the table, "Qixi just came from Zichen Palace, Your Majesty said that this thing should not be stored for a long time, and asked Qixi to bring it to Niangniang to taste." ”
This is not a fruit from the north, Nianyun once saw a merchant in Yangzhou who made a lot of effort to transport some from Lingnan and sell them to the richest wealthy families, so he recognized this thing, it was the favorite lychee of Yang Yuhuan, the concubine during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong!
Nianyun was fortunate to eat it once, and the flesh inside was white and greasy and sweet, which was a rare and good product.
However, this is in Chang'an, and the lychees are transported all the way from Lingnan, how much manpower does it take? In such a hot weather, I don't know how many good stagecoaches will be tired to death.
At that time, Concubine Yang just loved to eat this thing, and Emperor Xuanzong in order to please her, so he often made people go all the way to pick fresh lychees, regardless of the labor and money. In the end, in the Anshi Rebellion, Concubine Yang was forced to hang herself, and I don't know how much infamy she beared!
