178 The Gift of the Crown

Qiu Xiyin said with a smile, "The fourth sister is about to be happy, everyone has their own fate, and the little uncle doesn't have to worry about it."

Without Qiu Buxian, with Xiao Chengzong's dedication to the Xie family, this marriage between the prince and Qiu's daughter will definitely fall on his head, if it weren't for this, Qiu Buyan would have "died" long ago!

Xie Tan smiled, "Yinyin is right, I think too much."

He said and remembered again, and said to Yunhe, "By the way, you came just in time, last time Princess Chiyang went to Taihua Mountain to pray for blessings, but I didn't catch up with the ripening of the pumpkins, I planted another plant in the greenhouse, it should be just right to eat, you go with me to pick it and bring it to the princess."

"I'll go too," Qiu Xiyin also stood up, and beckoned Xie Jiamian again, "Cousin Nine, let's go fold some plum branches and make a basket of pumpkins."

……

……

When Yunhe returned to Ningjun Wangfu with a basket of pumpkins, Feng Zhinan was playing Wutang and Bai Feng to feed him, Ning Shenzhi stood aside and watched, heard footsteps, and immediately turned his head to look over.

Yunhe leaned over and saluted and presented the basket to her, "Fourth Prince Xie said that last time Princess Chiyang went to Taihua Mountain to pray for blessings, she didn't catch up with the ripening of the pumpkin, so she planted another plant in the greenhouse, and it was just ripe, so she picked it and asked her subordinates to bring it to the princess."

Feng Zhinan slashed at Bai Feng fiercely, Bai Feng spun back, Feng Zhinan took the opportunity to jump into the martial arts field, landed beside Ning Shenzhi, stretched out his hand, "Give it to me."

Ning Shenzhi glanced at her, handed the basket to her, and Yunhe said, "Princess, this basket was made by the third girl Qiu and the ninth young master of the Xie family, the ninth young master said that the princess put this basket by the window and sprinkled some water every day, which can be fragrant for half a month."

Ning Shen's eyes stared at Yun He, Yun He said stiffly, "Qiu San Girl told her subordinates to hand it over to the princess herself, the incense bag placed in the compartment of this basket is Qiu San's own incense, which can calm the mind and help sleep, the fragrance is almost nothing, presumably the princess can use it well."

He is also very innocent, it is terrible to offend the king of the county, but if he doesn't come according to the orders of the third girl, maybe it will be even more terrifying!

As he spoke, Yunhe took out two purses from his sleeve pockets, one to Feng Zhinan and the other to Bai Feng.

Bai Feng was flattered, "I have it too?" What is it? ”

"Miss Qiu San said that this time Fourth Young Master Xie was injured, many people have sent good medicinal materials, among which there are a few excellent ones, she and Dr. Pei pondered together with a pill, eating one a day has the purpose of warming old wounds, presumably the princess and Bai Ye can use it."

Bai Feng raised his eyebrows and smiled, "That little girl still has some conscience!" ”

As he spoke, he opened his purse, took one out and looked at it, muttering, "I've never seen anyone make pills so small, like peas."

He threw it into his mouth as he spoke, and sighed, "Why is it still sweet?" ”

Yunhe said with a smile, "The third girl Qiu said that this purse is a hundred, and each one has a different taste, so that the princess will not be bored even if she eats it every day."

Bai Feng threw another one into his mouth, even more surprised, "It's really!" This is sour plum flavored, and it's quite delicious, and I feel hot when I eat it! ”

Yunhe hurriedly said, "Miss Qiu San told me that I can only eat one a day."

Bai Feng ignored him and said to Feng Zhinan, "Hey, princess, otherwise we will eat them one by one here and see which hundred flavors they are, I don't think there are a hundred flavors of the things I have eaten since I was a child!" ”

Feng Zhinan's heart was pounding, a hundred different flavors, I really can't wait to stuff them all into my mouth when I hear them!

Yunhe was anxious, "Hey, princess, you can't eat the medicine indiscriminately!" If the third girl Qiu knows, she will definitely blame herself! ”

Feng Zhinan took one and ate it, and said, "It's milky."

Saying that, carrying the basket and walking out, Bai Feng hurriedly followed, "Hey, princess, I haven't eaten pumpkin yet, I'm with you."

Feng Zhinan glanced at him, slashed over with one palm, Bai Feng hurriedly dodged, and then saw that Feng Zhinan had disappeared outside the martial arts hall.

He muttered stupidly, reached out and went to grab the pill in the purse again, but was so frightened by Ning Shenzhi's eyes that he retracted his hand again, put the purse close to his body, and reached out to grab Ning Shenzhi's shoulder, "Okay, okay, I know that you care about me, I promise not to take medicine indiscriminately, okay?" ”

Ning Shenzhi avoided it, stared at him again, and left.

Yoon-ho, "......"

Yun He sympathetically glanced at Bai Feng, who was following with a smile, well, just now the king of the county was definitely coveting Bai Ye's purse pill, right?

……

……

The matter of filial piety and concubine was spread out in an orderly manner under the arrangement of the Ministry of Rites, and Concubine Su was the last to get the news, and when she knew it, the documents of the Ministry of Rites had already been issued, and she was immediately furious, and sent someone to call Xiao Yin immediately.

After waiting for more than half an hour, Xiao Yin arrived in a hurry, and Concubine Su had already smashed everything that could be smashed in the hall, and the palace maid and eunuch knelt on the ground.

Xiao Yin frowned when he saw it, "You all go down."

Before the words fell, a step shook and smashed towards him, Xiao Yin quickly stepped out of the way and knelt down, "Mother concubine is angry."

Concubine Su was even more angry, "You still know that this palace is your mother!" That slut's business, you were also present at the time, why didn't you say a word after that, and let this palace be laughed at! ”

Xiao Yin said calmly, "I told my mother, did my mother stop it?" That's what people really laugh at."

Su Guifei was furious, "Presumptuous! That's how you talk to your mother? ”

"It's just a concubine, although there are not many concubines in my father's palace, but they are not few, why should my mother make a big move?"

"You know what? That's Xie Tanmiao's slut's niece! It's the slut's niece! ”

Xiao Yin was silent and spoke, "That day, my father took my jade pendant and gave it to Young Master Qiu's young daughter."

Concubine Su was stunned for a moment, then became furious, stood up, and kicked over the gold-inlaid mahogany dwarf in front of her, "You want my son to marry that slut's daughter!" Don't! ”

Xiao Yin said calmly, "My father has not yet said it clearly, but if the words and deeds of the mother concubine reach the ears of the father, this family matter will be a certainty, and I hope that the mother concubine will be cautious in her words and deeds, and the son will retire."

Su Guifei was angry, but she didn't dare to stop him, this son, since he turned ten years old, she didn't dare to be too arrogant in front of him......

On the first day of the issuance of the Ministry of Rites, Qiu Shixing was so angry that he wanted to return to Jiangnan immediately, but was persuaded by Qiu Zhengshen on the grounds that the weather was cold and Mrs. Qiu's health was not healthy.

Qiu Zheng is deeply aware of the bull temper of Qiu Shixing, and he and the old lady Qiu's father and son have not seen each other for many years, let alone a granddaughter?

For so many years, the only time he bowed his head was because Qiu Xiyin returned to Beijing to be tortured by Mrs. Qiu.

He was afraid that he would persuade Qiu Shixing for a while, and after a long time, he still had to go back to Jiangnan, so he hurriedly wrote a letter to Qiu Xiyin and asked her to persuade Qiu Shixing.

Qiu Shixing and his wife rushed to the capital from Gusu because they didn't care about their old age and long mountains and rivers, but because Xie Jiashu didn't have time to Cheng Huan's knees, Qiu Xiyin was very ashamed, and he heard that he was busy looking for Xie Chang.

Xie Chang then posted a post and invited Qiu Shixing and his wife to come to Xie's house to live.

Because of Xie Jiamu's matter, Mrs. Qiu was deeply afraid that the Xie family's house would be restless, and she didn't dare to ask Qiu Xiyin to live for a long time, so she reluctantly gave in because Qiu Xiyin was sick.

Qiu Shixing appreciated Xie Chang's approach very much, and often sighed with Mrs. Qiu that Xie Chang was worthy of being a teacher of students in the world, and worthy of Xie's reputation as a "teacher in the world".

At this time, he was hating his children and grandchildren, so he took the post, and took Mrs. Qiu to Xie's house the next day.

Xie Academy's school will not reopen until the first month, and because of Xie Jiamu's matter, the Xie family is closed to thank guests, Xie Chang has nothing to do at home all day, and when he sees Qiu Shixing, he is like a treasure, and the two famous scholars are like old friends at first sight, they play chess and make tea together every day, talk about the past and the present, and then talk about the descendants of the unscrupulous, Qiu Shixing doesn't want to go.

Qiu Xiyin and Xie Tanwei took Mrs. Qiu to play around in Xie's alley, and occasionally Xie Jiamian went to accompany her when she was free, he was sweet and skillful, and Mrs. Qiu liked her more than Xie Jiashu.

A few days later, Ning Shenzhi visited again, Mrs. Qiu liked him very much, seeing that he was not in good health, she personally made medicinal food for him every day, Yin Yin told him, "When you are young, you must take care of your body, and you can't leave the root of the disease, otherwise when you are old, you will be sick and sick, not to mention dragging down your children and grandchildren, and you will suffer yourself, and you will not be able to live if you die."

I've been making medicinal food all my life, and the serious doctor may not be as good as me, Yinyin was like a big mouse when she first hugged me, didn't I feed her spoonful by spoonful and grew up safely? ”

Ning Shenzhi was puzzled, "Big rat? No matter how small a child is, he can't be as big as a mouse, right? ”

"The twins are already smaller, Yinyin is not well raised in the mother's womb, and when they are born, they are only a little more than three pounds, think about it, how big can they be?"

Ning Shenzhi thought of Qiu Xiyin, who weighed only three catties, the size of a mouse, and could hold it with one hand, his cold face softened along with the heart in his chest, scooped a spoonful of medicinal food, and nodded, "Sweet."

Mrs. Qiu became proud, "It's a pity that the county king can't be empty, otherwise even if I eat this medicinal food for a hundred days, I can make a hundred different flavors for the county king."

Ning Shenzhi thought of Qiu Xiyin's hundred different flavored pills, and his expression became softer and softer.

Qiu Shixing and his wife lived in Xie's house for half a month, and when they saw that Qiu Xiyin was in good health, they were going back to Beijing, Xie Tanwei carried two pots of wine to Qiu Shixing to drink, and called Ning Shenzhi by the way.

After drinking a meal, Qiu Shixing couldn't leave, and stayed in Xie's Academy as a master.

As soon as this matter spread, the reputation of Xie's Academy became even more famous, and that was the time of great Confucianism! He never pays attention to mundane things, and he refuses to accept the hatred of his disciples!

Sure enough, after Xie Jiamu's incident, Xie's virtue and family style have reached a higher level, and even the hatred of Shixing is broken, and he is willing to stay in Xie's Academy as a master!

Xie Academy once again shocked the world, on the second day of the second month of February, Xie opened the ancestral hall, Xie Tanwei officially took over the post of head of Xie Academy, the prince on behalf of the Son of Heaven to watch the ceremony, the royal family and nobles inside and outside the capital, dignitaries and dignitaries flocked to it.

All kinds of rituals and worship are cumbersome and lengthy, starting from the beginning of the Mao hour until noon, it will come to an end, Xie Tanwei finally got free, and hurriedly went back to Qilu Pavilion to bathe and change clothes.

Although it was still cold in spring, he was covered in sweat, sticky and greasy, and it was really uncomfortable.

After taking a bath, changing into light clothes, Xie Tanwei felt a lot more relaxed, cheered up and walked out of the Qilu Pavilion, at the noon banquet, he also needed to accompany Xie Chang to accompany the wine and thank the guests, and in the afternoon, he would go to meet the famous Confucian masters and the best of the students of the Xie Academy.

Outside the Qilu Pavilion, Feng Zhinan stood beside a cluster of cultivated bamboos, obviously waiting for him.

Xie Tan was slightly stunned, and then subconsciously swept his clothes with the corner of his eye, well, fortunately, he is beautiful no matter what time he is, but he doesn't have to be afraid!

Xie Tanwei quickened his steps and walked towards Feng Zhinan, quietly adjusting the smile on his face to the best state.

"Princess".

Xie Tan leaned over and clenched his fists, Feng Zhinan nodded, "Congratulations."

Xie Tan raised his head and smiled at her, "The princess also came to watch the ceremony today?" Is my dress good today? ”

Feng Zhinan looked at his bright smiling face, and unconsciously pulled the corners of his mouth.

She touched the corner of her mouth strangely, and it turned out that she would laugh with him for no reason.

"Like? What is like? What do you like about her? ”

"Anan, when you meet someone, you look at him and feel full of joy, when you see him laughing, you want to laugh for no reason, seeing him happy is your greatest joy, at that time, you know ......"

Feng Zhinan stroked the corners of his mouth that he refused to hang down, and looked at Xie Tan's slightly bright smile in a daze, and suddenly it was suddenly dawned, it turned out that she had already met that person-

Therefore, when facing Bai Feng, who is a good match in all aspects and is sincere to her, she will hesitate, and when facing Ning Shenzhi's doubts, she will not be able to say what is bad about Bai Feng, let alone what is good about him.

It turned out that it wasn't Bai Feng good or bad at all, it turned out that it was just not that person......

Xie Tanwei was furious by her, subconsciously took two steps back, and rubbed his face, could it be that he played abnormally today? Don't look good at smiling?

Oh my God, why didn't he bring a mirror with him?

Feng Zhinan raised his hand, holding a pair of black crossbow arrows in his hand, the crossbow and arrows were engraved with simple and complex patterns, only the size of two palms, and they were antiquities at a glance.

Xie Tanwei took a step back, "What are you doing?" ”

Take a bow to intimidate him? He doesn't seem to have offended her lately, and he hasn't grabbed anything from her, right?

"Congratulatory gifts".

Xie Tanwei, "......"

Give a bow to a master as a gift? Could it be that if he is disobedient, he should give him a lesson?

Xie Tan smiled slightly embarrassedly, stepped forward and took it with his pointed hand, although it was a good prop to deter the students, but he felt that the possibility of him hurting himself should be greater!

"Thank you".

"Would you like to be my colt?"

The voices of the two sounded at the same time, Xie Tan's eyes widened slightly, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and he retreated again and again, "You, what did you say?" ”

He said without waiting for Feng Zhinan to speak, and said like a firecracker, "I, I told you a long time ago, we are impossible, we are not suitable!" What I like is a beautiful, gentle and talented person like Mrs. Qiu, and at worst, I have to be like Yinyin! You're exactly like 9 no, no! ”

Feng Zhinan still looked expressionless and unfazed, and nodded, "Got it."

Xie Tan was slightly stunned, got it? What do you mean?

Feng Zhinan nodded at him, turned around, Xie Tan was slightly anxious, and caught up with two steps, "Hey, why did you leave?" ”

Feng Zhinan paused and turned around, "Anything else?" ”
