Chapter 142: Protecting the Short
"That's it, sir."
Xiao Qijin held the teacup and gently blew the tea in the teacup, "It's really strange." ”
According to what the little detective heard, Chu Yin was uncertain about Yun Rongjue before, and since he came to Daliang, he also knew that he had heard it a few times.
Why did Chu Yin have such great malice towards Yun Rongjue?
For various reasons, he is young and drifting, and Chu Yin only has Yun Rongjue, his own son, who is his own son, and it is said that he should cherish and care for him even more, but Chu Yin's attitude is really ...... It's puzzling.
————
In the heavy snowfall, Daliang ushered in the New Year, and the whole Chang'an was prosperous and festive, and the mess two months ago has been swept away.
Shi Yan is about half a month before the New Year's Festival, Qing Zhao who came to say goodbye to Jiang Wu.
On the day of separation, Shi Yan didn't mention the matter of recovering the country again, Jiang Wu didn't know if he had figured it out.
When Shi Yan left, he left her a word, and they would meet again soon.
When they could see each other again, Jiang Wu was naturally happy and looked forward to it deeply.
This year's New Year's Festival is very festive and lively, there is a banquet in the palace, Yun Rongjue takes Jiang Sumo into the palace to have a banquet in accordance with the rules, and Xiao Qijin is also at the palace banquet.
Because Xiao Qijin was here, Chu Yin's mood was much happier.
After the palace banquet was over, Yun Rongjue returned to the palace, and the little girl had been waiting all night.
On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Yun Rongjue did not stay in Suxue Pavilion, and Jiang Sumo knew his temperament and disposition, and did not feel anything. The next day, it was Zhang Ruo, who complained to her a few words.
Zhang Ruo's complaints and provocations are nothing more than those few words, thinking that Jiang Wu is just a girl and does not conform to the rules.
Jiang Sumo seemed to listen to Zhang Ruo's words very carefully, but in fact, for Zhang Ruo's words, the left ear went in, and the right ear came out, and he didn't pay attention to it.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Yun Qingqing took the little prince back to Daliang.
This was also discussed between her and Tang Huai in advance, this was the first time she came back after the accident in Da Liang. Looking at the great coolness of things and people, she sighed a lot.
"The little prince is so cute."
Jiang Wu hugged Tang Cheng and teased.
Yun Qingqing smiled lightly and turned to look at Yun Rongjue, "Fifth brother, I didn't expect so many things to happen in just one year. ”
Yun Feng succeeded to the throne, but in just one year, it changed hands.
Yun Rongjue snorted lightly, "For the previous matter, I would like to thank you and Tang Huai for helping." ”
Yun Qingqing smiled, "Fifth brother is polite to Qingqing, it should be." ”
"Your Highness, you see, how cute the little prince is." Jiang Wu hugged the little guy and teased him in front of Yun Rongjue.
"It seems that Cheng'er likes Xiao Wu very much, look, grab Xiao Wu's hand and don't let go." Yun Qingqing said.
Yun Rongjue glanced at the little guy in swaddling clothes, and stretched out his hand to tease him. He doesn't have much affection for small children.
He looked up and saw the joy on the little girl's face, who seemed to like children.
"Fifth brother, you and your fifth sister-in-law have been married for a while, when do you want to have a child?" Yun Qingqing stretched out her hand to tease the little guy and asked casually.
Jiang Wu's lowered eyes paused slightly, but his mood was quickly deviated by Tang Cheng.
"Bring him to the nurse, I'm afraid he's hungry." Yun Rongjue said to Jiang Wu.
Tang Cheng was crying in his arms, and Jiang Wu answered and left with the little guy in his arms.
"Fifth brother?"
"Me and her, not what you think." Yun Rongjue said.
Yun Qingqing was puzzled, and a flash of speculation flashed between her eyebrows, "Fifth brother, what do you mean......"
The two looked at each other, and Yun Qingqing opened her lips, knowing it in her heart. After a while, she thought of Jiang Wu and asked again, "Fifth brother, then you like Jiang Wu, right?" ”
Yun Rongjue did not deny it.
"Speaking of which, she has been with the fifth brother for a long time, the fifth brother is interested in her, I think that girl is also interested in the fifth brother, why don't the fifth brother marry her into the palace, and change the name to be more just." Yun Qingqing said.
"It's not time yet." Yun Rongjue said.
Yun Qingqing was a little puzzled, and in a blink of an eye, she thought that in the court of Daliang now, it was Yun Rongjue and Chu Yin who were in power.
In fact, she didn't understand that the fifth brother was so capable, why the Empress Dowager had to make Pei'er the emperor, and the fifth brother succeeded to the throne, which was also a legitimate thing, and the fifth brother was capable enough, and he would definitely be able to manage Da Liang properly.
While the two were talking, Jiang Wu came back, and Yun Qingqing had a light and gentle smile on her face, "How is Cheng'er?" ”
Jiang Wu's eyebrows curled, "The little prince has eaten milk and has already slept, the third princess, the little prince is really cute." ”
"Children are cute, and when you have your own children, you will love them even more." After Yun Qingqing finished speaking, her eyes wandered over the two of them.
If it is the child of Jiang Wu and Fifth Brother, he must be very beautiful.
"When are you going to go back to Bitang?" Yun Rongjue turned the conversation away.
"In two days."
"Is the third princess going back so soon?" Jiang Wu was surprised.
"Yes, actually, I want to stay a few more days, but Cheng'er is still young, and it's not good for me to take him away for too long."
Yun Rongjue smiled in a low voice, "It's Tang Huai who wants you to go back quickly." ”
Mentioning Tang Huaiyun Qingqing's face flushed, "Fifth brother." ”
Inside the room was the joyful laughter of the three of them.
At this moment, the servant hurriedly ran over, "Your Highness." ”
"When you're in a hurry, say it slowly." Yun Rongjue said.
"Your Royal Highness, it's the eldest princess, the eldest princess and the concubine are about to fight."
The three of them were all stunned, "Big sister and brother-in-law are fighting?" What's going on? Yun Qingqing was surprised.
"This is specific, the little ones don't know, it is the words of the princess's mansion, they don't dare to disturb the queen mother, and ask your highness to come over."
Yun Rongjue and Yun Qingqing immediately got up, Jiang Wu followed, and the three of them left the house.
When the three of them arrived at the princess's mansion, the princess's mansion was very lively, and the disputes and noises inside could be heard outside, and the neighbors around the princess's mansion couldn't help but come over to find out.
"What's going on?" Yun Rongjue asked the subordinates of the princess's mansion.
"Lord, the princess and the colt have quarreled."
"What is this for?" This Yun Song Zhen's voice is quite loud, although Yun Qingqing is not used to seeing her on weekdays, but at this time, she really doesn't understand what can be like this.
"Yes...... For the sake of Dong Niangzi, the princess and the concubine would quarrel a few words from time to time, but I didn't expect the noise to be even more fierce today. The servant said.
Yun Rongjue glanced to the side and said coldly: "It's just nonsense, let those people disperse." With that, he walked straight towards the princess's mansion.
Not far after walking in, I saw two people arguing at the gate of the courtyard, the two of them were tense, especially Yun Songzhen, who looked like a princess at the moment, Yun Qingqing couldn't help but shake her head.
"What's the fuss!" Yun Rongjue screamed.
Yun Songzhen turned her head when she heard the voice, and when she saw Yun Rongjue, she hurriedly stepped forward, her face was extremely aggrieved! "Fifth brother, fifth brother, you are here, you have to call the shots for Song Zhen."
"See His Royal Highness the Regent." Zhang Quan saluted Yun Rongjue.
"This is the Princess's Mansion, you made such a big noise in your own mansion and made people laugh, what made you so angry?" Yun Rongjue asked.
"Fifth brother, it's him," Yun Songzhen pointed at Zhang Quan, "It's them, they bully Song Zhen." ”
Yun Rongjue blinked an eye, Zhang Quan suppressed the anger in his heart, and replied: "Your Highness Mingjian, the princess is angry because of Dong Niangzi in the palace, but Dong Niangzi didn't do anything to collide with the princess. ”
"Chapter Quan! You and that little slut didn't take this princess seriously at all! You stay in her yard every day, where do you leave me?! Now even bring her to the table with your friends! In the end, she is the wife you are marrying, or is this princess! ”
"It's just a few friends getting together at random, Dong Niangzi is also married to me Zhang Quanzheng'er, I take her out, there is nothing wrong with it, the princess is looking for trouble with Dong Niangzi everywhere in the house, what is the reason? When Dong Niangzi passed the door, the princess agreed, and the princess said it well at the time, and she would get along with Dong Niangzi in the future, but now?! Princess, what you said doesn't count at all?! Zhang Quan asked.
Yun Rongjue and the others watched, listening to the words of the two, he frowned, "Just for this matter, it's like this?" ”
Yun Rongjue's voice was full of displeasure, and Yun Song Zhen pursed her mouth, "Fifth brother, Song Zhen is wronged." ”
"If you want me to say, this is not a big deal, there is no need to make a fuss like this, the eldest sister and brother-in-law, you alone take a step back, and this matter will be over." Yun Qingqing said.
Yun Songzhen glared at Yun Qingqing, "Now that the third sister is the husband and the emperor, she is happy, and she doesn't have a backache when she stands and talks." ”
Yun Qingqing pursed her lips speechlessly, "Qingqing is telling the truth, although there is something wrong with my brother-in-law, I didn't take into account the feelings of the eldest sister, but isn't the eldest sister right, since I agreed to Dong Niangzi to enter the house, it was to accept Dong Niangzi, and to accept it and pick thorns everywhere, isn't it the eldest sister, if the eldest sister is unwilling, she shouldn't have accepted it in the first place, and if she didn't accept it at the beginning, there would be so many things to do today." ”
"Third sister!"
"Qingqing's words are what this king wants to say." Yun Rongjue spoke coldly.
"Fifth brother!"
"Eldest princess, the concubine knows that she is wrong, but the concubine really doesn't mean to compete with the princess, the concubine is willing to let the concubine travel, it is the blessing of the concubine, if the princess is really angry, then the concubine is ...... If you don't go, I hope the princess will be angry and stop arguing with the colt. ”
Dong Niangzi, who had not spoken, opened her mouth and knelt down straight for Yun Songzhen. Dong Niangzi's face was weak and squeamish, with tears on her face, and she had a bit of Lin Daiyu's taste.
It's okay that this Dong Niangzi didn't speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Yun Songzhen was even more angry. couldn't control it directly, so he slapped Dong Niangzi and slapped it.
Yun Songzhen's slap directly knocked Dong Niangzi unconscious.
"It's okay now, I think the colt is going to be even more angry," Yun Qingqing supported her chin with one hand, and said helplessly, she turned her eyes to look at Yun Rongjue, who was silent, "Fifth brother, how are you going to deal with this matter, is it on the side of the eldest sister, or on the side of the colt?" ”
Yun Rongjue drank tea slowly, "What do you think?" ”
Yun Qingqing thought for a while, "Big sister here?" ”
Although she and Yun Songzhen are very incompatible, no matter what, Yun Songzhen is Princess Da Liang and the younger sister of the fifth brother.
"You think I'm a short-term protector?" Yun Rongjue lifted his eyes.
Yun Qingqing's eyes bent and stuck out her tongue, "Doesn't the fifth brother protect his shortcomings." As she spoke, she glanced at Jiang Wu on the side.
This little girl is an excellent proof of the fifth brother's short-term protection.
Yun Rongjue also turned his eyes and looked at the well-behaved little girl beside him.
The eyes of the two suddenly fell together, but Jiang Wu was inexplicable for a while, "What are Your Highness and the princess doing looking at Xiao Wu like this." ”
Yun Rongjue looked at the little girl fixedly, and slowly said: "If it is really the king's shortness, this king will protect it." ”
Yun Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and after a while, her eyebrows raised, and her eyes were more meaningful when she looked at Jiang Wu.
After the three of them chatted for a while, the subordinates of the princess's mansion walked in and said, "Your Highness." ”
"How is Dong Niangzi's side?"
"Back to His Royal Highness, the concubine invited a doctor to show the lady, and the result was ...... The doctor diagnosed the pulse, and the lady was pregnant. ”
This made the three of them even more surprised.
It's really a play now.
Dong Niangzi was diagnosed as pregnant, Yun Songzhen was already angry, and this time, she was even more crazy.
Yun Rongjue knew Yun Songzhen's temperament, but in this matter, he did not defend Yun Songzhen, but instead sent someone to take care of Dong Niangzi, and made Yun Songzhen think about it behind closed doors in the house for a month.
Yun Rongjue's decision to move greatly appeased Zhang Quan.
Yun Rongjue's move decided that although Yun Qingqing listened to him before and was mentally prepared, she still didn't expect Yun Rongjue to help Zhang Quan so thoroughly.
"Fifth brother, according to the temperament of the eldest sister, I'm afraid I'm going to be extremely angry." Yun Qingqing said.
"That girl is used to being arrogant and indulgent on weekdays, and she always has to learn a lesson." Yun Rongjue said.
Yun Qingqing nodded, "What the fifth brother said is, it's just, fifth brother, you can actually make the concubine's side take a step back in this matter, so that the eldest sister Xu will feel better, fifth brother, why did you help Zhang Quan like this?" In the end, this chapter is complete, and it is a colt who comes to the door. ”
"Zhang Quan is a concubine who comes to the door, but the Zhang family is also very important in the court, and you should understand this truth." Yun Rongjue looked at Yun Qingqing and said.
"Fifth brother, this is taking care of the Zhang family and giving the Zhang family a little sweetness."
"Hmm."
"The fifth brother is thoughtful, but I don't know if the eldest sister can figure it out."
……
Two days later, Yun Qingqing took Tang Cheng back to Bitang, and Yun Songzhen was quietly thinking in the princess's mansion because of Yun Rongjue's order.
Yun Songzhen and Zhang Quan made a big fuss in the princess's mansion not only known to the neighbors, but even there were some rumors in the court. But because Yun Rongjue handled it in a timely and proper manner, he gave the Zhang family all face, and this matter was not taken advantage of.
During this period of the New Year's Festival, Chu Yin is often with Xiao Qijin, this is the first New Year's Festival that the mother and son have spent together after they have recognized each other, Chu Yin is very cherished and happy.
Chu Yin intended to give Xiao Qijin the status of a prince, but Yun Rongjue had objections, and the two had an argument because of this.
After Xiao Qijin found out, he went to Changle Palace and persuaded Chu Yin.
He was not interested in any prince's position.
"Lord Xiao, why don't you accept the Empress Dowager's opinion? Now that Chizhou Zhai is in charge, you can't go back, in this great cool, if you get the respect of the prince, you don't have to worry about your life in the future. Zhou Gan said.
Xiao Qijin chuckled and didn't explain much, he turned away and asked how the new envoys sent by Zhou Gan Chizhou to take care of him were doing.
Since Zhai Yi was in power in Chizhou, he was abandoned by the king of Chizhou, and after the revival of Daliang, the king of Chizhou sent a new envoy to protect Zhou Gan.
The envoy said that he was taking care of it, but it was better to say that he was surveilling, monitoring Zhou Gan's actions.
"Your Highness is relieved, one day, you can go back to Chizhou again." Xiao Qijin reassured.
Zhou Gan smiled, he didn't take it to heart, for Hui Chizhou, after so many things, he no longer had "great hopes."
After the New Year's Festival, about ten days later, Jiang Wu saw Shi Yan again.
The two talked, Jiang Wu didn't know why Shi Yan came this time, Shi Yan didn't tell her, nor did he tell her how long he would stay in Da Liang this time.
"It's still lively today, Xiao Wu, we haven't had a good walk together for a long time, I still remember when I was in Nanjiang, there was a fifteenth year of the year, I helped you sneak out of the palace, let's go and enjoy the lanterns." Shi Yan said.
Referring to the past, Jiang Wu's eyes were even softer, and she nodded, "Well, Xiao Wu remembers." ”
In the past, when she was in Nanjiang, she was imprisoned in the palace and couldn't leave, she had a lot of expectations for the outside, at that time, if it wasn't for Shi Yan and Sister Yuyan to help her, what was it like outside, she was afraid that she hadn't seen it once.
On the fifteenth day of that year, Shi Yan helped her sneak out of the palace, and they enjoyed the lanterns and snacks on the street, and they were very happy!
"Remember the mask?" Shi Yan stopped at a stall selling masks.
Jiang Wu looked at it, slightly stunned, nodded for a moment, reached out and picked up a rabbit mask, and put it on his face, "Remember, at that time, it was also such a rabbit mask, which was bought by Brother Shi Yan for Xiao Wu." ”
Shi Yan curled his lips and smiled, and picked up another horse mask, "Yes, at that time, my Xiao Wu was wearing a rabbit mask, and I was wearing a horse mask." ”
The two of them had masks on their faces, looked at each other, and were surrounded by a steady stream of human voices, and for a moment, they seemed to be in a different world.
"Two, these two masks, do you want them?" The vendor asked.
Shi Yan took out the silver from his cuff and handed it to the vendor, "I want it." ”
The two wore masks and continued to walk forward.
In addition to telling about the past, they don't talk much about the present, and Shi Yan is not like before, always forcing her to make a choice, she thinks, he may have figured it out.
"Brother Shiyan, this mask is uncomfortable after wearing it for a long time, so why don't you take it off." She saw that Shi Yan had been wearing a mask and had never taken it down.
Shi Yan chuckled, "It's okay, it's more convenient to wear this mask, there are a lot of people in this market, if people bump into it, maybe it will cause trouble for Xiao Wu." ”
Shi Yan said this, and Jiang Wu didn't say anything more.
The two found a stall and sat down to eat some wontons.
While the two were eating, suddenly, a familiar voice interjected.
Jiang Wu turned his head and saw that he was facing the man's burning gaze.
"Your Highness."
Shi Yan also raised his head when he heard the sound and looked at Yun Rongjue, who suddenly appeared.
Yun Rongjue's gaze wandered over the two of them for a moment, "Nanfu said that you are out of the house, who is this?" ”
Jiang Wu turned his eyes to look at Shi Yan, and was speechless for a while.
Shi Yan's thin lips tugged, and Jiang Wu opened his mouth to explain the front line, "I'm Xiao Wu's friend." ”
