173 Willow Shore, Dawn Wind and Waning Moon (4)
People must be like this!
In the next few months, I always saw Shen's smug voice and smile like a breeze in front of me from time to time, and I was not as happy as I imagined about her death, and I generally felt that it was just a small matter. What can be diametrically opposed to my situation is that Zhuang Jieyu has a more comfortable life after this time, as if a piece of pus and blood that has festered in her heart for many years has finally been cut clean, and she is satisfied, and there is nothing else to be greedy......
The faint sunlight grabs the window in, and the infiltration of the continuous summer rain not only does not make the weather a little cooler, but more stuffy and sticky, Zhuang Jieyu is holding the jade between her fingers, a look of drooping eyelashes and thinking, burning eyes on the chessboard in front of me carefully patrolling, figuring out for a long time before falling, I took a look, hurriedly picked up the chess pieces and said: "No, no, I just made a mistake!" ”
She slapped my hand lightly and said with a smile: "How can you be so laid, I have regretted it three times today, and I must not tolerate you this time." ”
I snorted, threw down the chess pieces, and let out a long sigh, "Don't play, the overall situation has been decided, and I will lose again." ”
Zhuang Jieyu smiled, "When I played chess with you before, I didn't see you so ungraceful, what's wrong with you now?" ”
Dongxue brought a plate of butterfly cakes, "Jieyu doesn't know, our mother has been so restless since she came back from the cold palace." ”
Zhuang Jieyu's expression also became worried, "What happened?" Shen's death from you and me should be a great joy, why are you not only unhappy, but also so sad? ”
I waved my hand at Dongxue, "You go." ”
After saying "yes" to Dongxue, she withdrew.
I shook my head and sighed: "Shen didn't feel anything before she died, but after Shen's death, I felt that her death was inseparable from me, and my heart was very uncomfortable, as heavy as a thousand catties of burden." ”
Zhuang Jieyu thought about it for a while, and persuaded softly: "You must not think like this, if you have to say who is involved in her death, then no one in the harem will be able to escape the involvement," and suppressed her voice again, "The last straw that you and I planned to crush the camel is true, the queen mother will not save her when she sees death, it is also true that Your Majesty pushed the boat down the river, and it is even more true that Feng Shuyi started a beginning." ”
I was startled, grabbed her wrist, and asked, "You can see it too?" ”
Zhuang Jieyu frowned, "What do you mean?" ”
I lowered my eyes, "the initiator," paused, "The beginning of all this is Feng Shuyi." ”
Zhuang Jieyu nodded, "Yes." ”
I frowned and sighed, "Actually, Feng Shuyi is the most terrifying, she got rid of the Shen family with our hands. ”
Zhuang Jieyuzi was shocked suddenly, "What do you mean, we are in the circle?" ”
I pursed my lips and replied, "Yes and no." ”
Zhuang Jieyu leaned forward slightly, "What do you mean?" ”
I said: "Shen has always been instigated by her without knowing it, it is the sharpest gun in Feng Shuyi's hand, and it is a threat sooner or later, even if you and I don't get rid of it, Feng Shuyi, Your Majesty, there are always people who want to get rid of it, I think Feng Shuyi should also know what Your Majesty means, so I made such a move, just borrowed our hands to get rid of it." And for us, it is also just a good time to be a smooth person for Your Majesty. ”
Zhuang Jieyu was puzzled: "Since Feng Shuyi also understands what His Majesty meant, then why didn't she just make this person herself, but instead let us take advantage of such a bargain?" ”
I smiled, "This is Feng Shuyi's cleverness," she glanced at Zhuang Jieyu and continued, "What the Feng family does, you don't want to think about it, besides, it is not good to be the first bird to settle down in this harem, and it is good to add fuel to the fire at the right time." ”
Zhuang Jieyu thought for a while, and said slowly: "The Feng family is in charge of the internal affairs of our Imperial City Division, and they are the people who transport spies, and they have always acted alone in secret. ”
I chuckled, "Feng Shuyi naturally can't show that she knows a lot in front of Your Majesty, otherwise, if Your Majesty sees that the Feng family is using the name of the Imperial City Division to do what is convenient for herself, the Feng family's position in the Imperial City Division will not know if she can sit firmly," After thinking about it, she continued, "I guess she wants to push the Shen family out to test the water first, and see how His Majesty will deal with it, and she has a good idea in her heart." ”
Zhuang Jieyu smiled sarcastically, "It's really ill-intentioned," and then her eyes lit up, "But doesn't this just show that the Feng family has ghosts in their hearts!" ”
I smiled without saying a word, held up the tea cup and took a sip of clear and warm Tieguanyin.
At the beginning of June, Luo Xiyi asked my father Monte to become the general of the guard. In the early dynasties, although the Feng family was unhappy, the supporting party behind it also tried their best to oppose it. However, at Luo Xi's insistence, Dad was awarded the post of third-level general and second-rank general.
A member of the guard general, appointed by his cronies, the commander-in-chief of the northern and southern armies of Jiankang City, is the commander of the defense forces, and has a golden seal and purple ribbon. Therefore, this change must be Luo Xi's defense in order to prevent the invasion of the king of Yunnan, and it also shows the tension of the situation under the situation of the two corners.
Luo Xi's preparation of the method of defending as an attack and waiting for work at ease is also a wise decision, at that time the king of Yunnan must travel 3,000 miles if he wants to attack, even if he arrives at the three armies, he is already a servant of the dust, tired and tired, so that Luo Xi grasps the odds of victory by 30%.
However, I can't help but worry about my father's safety from time to time, pinching a handful of sweat, Luo Xi is now reused for his father, which will inevitably cause the dissatisfaction of the Feng family and its henchmen, how many pairs of eyes are staring, how many arrows are aiming, it is unpredictable, not to mention that my father is in the light, but the Feng family is in the dark, if there is one, when a hundred arrows are fired from all sides, how to dodge?
After his father inherited the rank of general Zuo, every word and deed was cautious, and Luo Xici's silkworm soft armor never left for a moment, and he only made a peaceful and self-defended shape outside. Although Feng Shuyi and I are plain and harmonious on the surface in the harem, both she and I know in our hearts that the other party is our mortal enemy. The Feng family can't wait to cramp and peel off my bones, eat bones, how can they be willing to have the slightest laxity.
It's just a wall, but there's nothing to be done.
I was annoyed, I could only secretly pray for the blessing of my family in my heart, and the child passed slowly like water, and it was calm without waves, and I gradually felt at ease.
At this time, there was a happy event in Rong's mansion, saying that Xiangxiang was pregnant. The Queen Mother has always liked Xiangxiang's blessings and wisdom, and after knowing it, she hurriedly made a decree and invited Xiangxiang into the palace immediately. Qiu Si came back and said that the people had been laughing in Cining Palace for a long time.
is finally bitter, this is undoubtedly a great good thing for their sense of husband and wife or for Xiangxiang's status in the Rong Mansion. Because I didn't want to go to Cining Palace to make trouble, I hurriedly instructed Qiu Si to bring a message to Xiangxiang for me, and asked her to come to Wanyi to have a detailed chat in her spare time.
The next day, Xiangxiang came to Wanyi to meet when he was free.
She was wearing a cloud-colored gauze skirt, and saluted me with a swaying salute, I hurriedly helped her up with a smile, and said with a happy look on her face: "Now your son is golden, don't break me." ”
Xiangxiang sat on the goose feather cushion prepared earlier, his cheeks were ruddy and shiny, he was very satisfied, and his palms always protected the slightly convex lower abdomen intentionally or unintentionally, and his every move was extremely natural surrounded by a young woman's motherly aura.
For some reason, I suddenly felt a tingling pain in my heart, so painful that I couldn't help but touch my mouth with my hand. Qiu Siben was pouring tea and waiting, and when he saw me like this, he hurried over and asked, "Niangniang, what's wrong?" ”
I couldn't think of anything for a while, and Xiangxiang sat in front of me and looked at me worriedly. I couldn't let myself affect Xiangxiang's joy of becoming a mother at the moment, so I reluctantly took a deep breath and said with a smile: "It's okay," and asked again, "How many months?" ”
Xiangxiang blushed with happiness on his face, "It's only been two months." ”
After I listened, I instructed: "Then be careful," Seeing Xiangxiang picking up the teacup, he hurriedly said to Qiu Si, "Pregnant people should not drink tea, how can you return it, hurry up and go to the small kitchen to change it to incense." ”
Qiu Si said: "The slave should die." He quickly removed the teacup and withdrew to change it.
Xiangxiang smiled and said, "Where is it so exaggerated like you?" ”
I waved my hand and said, "Pregnancy is not a trivial matter, how many women in the world are like flowers at the age of childbirth and have not been able to cross the threshold, and the people who take care of them should naturally be more diligent," and glanced at her lightly, "You don't take it seriously, it must be that the person who serves you is inexperienced or not dedicated enough." ”
Xiang Xiang couldn't help but smile, "You say this as if you have given birth yourself, you are a little more familiar than me, but I don't know that you have never given birth," and then her smile became narrow, and asked me, "Miao, you were not short when you entered the palace, and you were the pet of the special room, why haven't you added a son and a half daughter to Your Majesty's knees?" ”
I was ashamed, sneered at her, and said, "What are you talking about!" Where can such a thing be said to exist? ”
Then, he joked and said: "I haven't asked you yet, how long have you been back, and you have it so quickly, I was still bluffed when I heard it, how could the second line of your family Rong suddenly be opened by you?" My mind has become so clear," I straightened out my neckline, pretending to be sitting in a precarious position, "Don't hurry up and recruit from the truth!" ”
"Maybe it's providence, since I went back from the palace, if you treat me, you don't seem to be cold, I thought he heard some rumors, knew about the accident that happened in the palace, and was soft-hearted for a while, and wanted to compensate me, but looking at his appearance coldly, I don't think it's like it, this time the heart is really," said, Xiangxiang's god showed his innate worries and worries about having children, "I hope I can give birth to a son, if it is a daughter, he will be very disappointed." ”
My eyebrows twitched, and I asked, "You don't think he just wants a son when he converts you, do you?" ”
Xiang Xiang shook his head again and again: "I don't think so," and sighed, "I'm just worried that Rong Ruo's heart won't be able to keep it with me for long, after all, I have never been his favorite, if I can have a son, even if his heart is not here with me in the future, the son will be much better." ”
I suddenly remembered the few words I heard Lord Rong and the princess talking in the Buddha Bead Hall, and I was relieved: "I think, Lord Rong is not a person who sees things differently, since he has changed his mind, he will definitely treat you well, and giving birth to children is predestined, you don't want to be too entangled in this, hurt your heart, not to mention, there was Mulan in the army for her father, it can be seen that a good daughter is better than many mediocre sons." ”
Xiangxiang was a little happier, "I just hope that Rong Ruo can also treat everyone equally." ”
I smiled and said: "Lord Rong doesn't seem to be pedantic, he will, you only have to relax for ten months, just give birth to a healthy child, at that time, you enter the palace again, bring the child over, I want to hug it." ”
Xiang Xiang smiled, "This is natural, but I don't know if you can hold it at that time?" ”
I was at a loss, "What does this mean?" ”
She looked at me with a smile, her eyes wandering on my lower abdomen, "At that time, if you are also pregnant, I will not dare to work on you, if I hurt you a little, I am really afraid that Your Majesty will be angry with me." ”
I immediately glared at her with a smile, and said angrily: "You still say," I blushed with shame as I said it, and after a while, I slipped off a pair of white jade jade bracelets on my wrist and handed them over, and said in a crisp tone, "Na, this is my gift to my child, whether it is a man or a woman, I can be a godmother!" ”
She smiled slightly, took the bracelet and put it in her sleeve, and said angrily: "This is decided, but you are not allowed to repay the debt!" ”
I raised my eyebrows and replied, "Naturally not, the gifts have been given, how can I rely on it?" ”
Xiangxiang was silent for a long time with a smile, his expression suddenly became solemn, his eyes swept left and right, his brows frowned, and he said hesitantly between his lips and teeth: "I mainly have to bring you a message when I enter the palace this time." ”
My heart was plucked like a string, and my eyelids twitched, "But Dad found you?" ”
She nodded, "When my uncle sent someone to take me into the palace, he told me that I must tell you that the family is very good, so you don't have to worry about it," there was silence for a moment, and her voice was low and low, "Also, be careful of Feng Shuyi." ”
I said "um", "I already expected it, and I have to bother you to help me bring a message to my father." ”
Xiangxiang Zhengse asked, "What words?" ”
I lowered my eyes and said carefully: "The Feng Family's Imperial City Division is not entirely for Your Majesty, the stakes are self-evident, we must secretly find evidence of its self-interest, in order to completely eradicate it!" ”
