Chapter 52 The Prince of Xu is seriously ill and is not suitable to marry
As a result, after the prince came back, he asked people to withdraw all the things that had been prepared, and directly left them down and said: "If you want to prepare, use the white ones, if I see red things in the house again, I will dismantle them all again." ”
Where does the housekeeper dare to use white things to marry the prince, this marriage is not only related to the lord of Minyi, but also related to the prince, isn't this cursing his master? But Xu Shizi's words, he didn't dare to disobey, the little master is a demon king of the mixed world, he can do it if he says it. And the prince and princess don't care. As a result, the housekeeper did not dare to act rashly, so he let things develop naturally.
As for the county lord's mansion, the queen was also attentive enough to Shen Yafei, and sent her a grandmother and people to manage this matter, while the rest of the county lord's mansion had a tacit understanding that no one would mention this matter, and all the things were busy with the people sent by the palace.
When the day of marriage came, King Ning's Mansion, Chen Guogong's Mansion, and General Shen's Mansion were all full of festive red, with gongs, drums and firecrackers ringing non-stop, and guests in an endless stream.
However, the palace of the king of Pi was closed to greet guests, and a white ribbon was wrapped around the door, and below the ribbon was a large, five-foot-high, seven-foot-long white paper, with a big eye-catching word written "Xu Shizi is seriously ill and not suitable for marriage." Ladies and gentlemen, please come back! ”
The guest door was stunned when he looked at the words on the door, what kind of trick was this playing? What number of roads?
Moreover, the county lord's mansion also received a letter wrapped in white silk cloth from the Liwang Mansion, and the lettering was the same as the one on the door of the Liwang Mansion.
When the grandmother sent to help in the palace saw the letter, she felt that she had also been insulted, and she had wasted so many days of her labor in vain, and she originally wanted to take this opportunity to bribe and bribe the county lord of Minyi, hoping that the county lord could say a few good words for herself in front of the queen.
Now Mama can't bear it anymore, so she took the helper she brought two days ago and went to Shen Yafei, "Lord Minyi, it seems that this marriage can't be done." In this case, then the old slave took them back. ”
"Okay, you guys go back first. I'll explain it to the queen. Shen Yafei saw that Mama still had resentment on her face, which made her complain as well.
"Lord Xie!" Mama breathed a sigh of relief, she originally thought that Shen Yafei would be angry with her!
Mama left with her people, and when she left, she was still angry. The things prepared before were still hanging, and Shen Yafei asked them to take them all down and burn them.
"This young son is too much!" Dayin said angrily, "Miss, let me teach him a lesson, I must let him know what a serious illness is!" ”
"Flutter!" Shen Yafei smiled, "Don't make trouble, isn't this better?" He doesn't want to marry me, and I don't want to marry him. Besides, I also have the name of the princess of the unpassed family, so I can walk sideways in the capital in the future, and I don't have to be trapped in the palace of the king of Li. ”
That's true, but Xu Shizi's behavior is too insulting. Dayin and the others saw that Shen Yafei didn't mean to settle accounts with Xu Shizi, they were really uncomfortable and unwilling!
On that day, gongs and drums were beating all over the streets. In Shen's house, Mrs. Shen covered Lin Wanxin's head. In Chen's house, Mrs. Chen put a hijab on Chen Xi. Both of them got on the sedan chair sent by King Ning's mansion. It was King Ning himself who went to the Chen Mansion to pick up the bride, while it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Yuan who went to the Shen Mansion to pick up the bride. In the end, who King Ning attaches more importance to, and whose etiquette is greater, there is no need to say!
The two sedan chairs also arrived at King Ning's Mansion almost at the same time, if it weren't for Chen Guogong, Lord Chen, and Chen Si staring at King Ning closely, he was afraid that he would have to directly cross Chen Xi's sedan chair and go to the sedan chair in Shen Mansion to kick Lin Wanxin's sedan door. King Ning led Chen Xi's red silk belt into the gate, and walked all the way along the red carpet to the main hall. After they entered the main hall, Lin Wanxin's sedan chair was carried into King Ning's mansion and directly to the backyard.
In the main hall, the emperor, the queen mother, and the queen sat on the main seat on the left, and the elders of the Chen family sat on the main seat on the right, with a festive atmosphere on their faces. The emperor's most trusted father-in-law, Wu, presided over the marriage ceremony for King Ning and Miss Chen, holding the unique tone of eunuchs: "Worship heaven and earth!" ","Second Worship High Hall ······"
The guests were also infected by this joy, and they all had smiles on their faces. General Shen and the two sons of the Shen family looked at the miscellaneous tastes in their hearts, and finally couldn't stand it, and left before the etiquette was over. Mrs. Shen and Shen Yaru were talking to Lin Wanxin in the backyard of King Ning's mansion, and after King Ning and Chen Xi's etiquette was over, the two were also notified by the housekeeper that they were leaving. Originally, Lin Wanxin was a concubine, and her mother's family was not allowed to come to the new house, but this was already an exception made by Ning Wangfu for them. King Yuan and the housekeeper personally sent them out of the palace, the prince was the prince, and he had to be present at King Ning's wedding banquet, so he didn't come to see them off, unless he wanted to offend Chen Guogong's family.
"Mrs. Shen, please rest assured, the third brother will not let his sister-in-law suffer." King Yuan comforted the two of them, "Moreover, my eldest brother and I will also take care of the third sister-in-law!" ”
"King Xie Yuan!" Mrs. Shen and Shen Yaru were very moved in their hearts, but they really couldn't laugh.
After Mrs. Shen and Shen Yaru left, Lin Wanxin sat alone in the new room, the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers outside was faint, but Lin Wanxin felt that every sound was very clear. Ning Wang's Mansion is very big, she thought she would not be able to hear it! Late at night, the grandmother and green of the palace told her that it was time to go to bed, and she was still alone. Is the new house over there bigger, more luxurious than here, and more lively than here? Of course, at least one more person than here!
Lin Wanxin shed tears of pain in the dark.
However, the new house on the other side was not as beautiful as she imagined, and as soon as Chen Guogong's people left, King Ning came out of the new house. Chen Xi touched the bed beside him that was gradually getting colder, and tears of pain overflowed from his eyes.
When King Ning came out of Chen Xi's new house, he went back to his room and took a bath, because he didn't want to go to Lin Wanxin with Chen Xi's scent on his body. Thinking of his actions just now, King Ning felt extremely disgusted, although it was caused by the Gu poison on his body, but it couldn't erase the fact that he had betrayed Lin Wanxin. At this time, he didn't have the courage to go to Lin Wanxin.
"King Ning!" A dark guard knelt respectfully on the edge of the bath.
"What's the matter?" King Ning was already in a bad mood, and at this time, they didn't bother him!
Facing King Ning's anger, the secret guard said expressionlessly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked you to go to the Prince's Mansion!" ”
How could the eldest brother let him go at this time, could it be that something big happened? Big brother's health is not good? King Ning immediately stood up from the bath, and the dark guard handed him the new clothes that had been prepared on the shelf. After King Ning hurriedly put on his clothes, he went to the Prince's Mansion with the secret guard.
"Big brother?" King Ning followed the secret guard to the underground dungeon of the prince's mansion, and he didn't quite understand why the prince would meet him here.
The prince went over and patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Are you okay today?" "King Ning didn't have a good face today.
"Big brother, what are you asking me to do here?" King Ning didn't want to mention today's matter again.
"You come with me." Saying that, the crown prince took King Ning to a cell.
In the cell, a man more than seven feet tall was wrapped around his neck, wrists, arms, waist, legs, and ankles by wrist-thick iron rings, and he was bound all over his body by an iron chain, which was the best and most solid in this dungeon, and was specially built by the prince to lock up special prisoners.
"What is this?" King Ning asked suspiciously.
"Look at his face!" The crown prince said to King Ning.
King Ning raised his eyes and saw that it was the man who also raised his head at this time, King Ning's eyes widened in surprise, and he asked the prince in disbelief: "He······ He's ······"
"Hmm." The prince nodded wordlessly at him.
After King Ning calmed down, he said, "Then you should call Xu Shizi to come over, and you should let him know about this!" ”
The crown prince agreed to King Ning's proposal and recruited the secret guards and asked them to go to Xu Shizi to come over.
King Ning still couldn't believe it at this time, "Didn't he die six years ago?" ”
"Maybe some things aren't what we think they are." The prince said with a deep face, maybe there are many things that they expected, maybe he can solve their doubts.
"The prince is looking for me?" Xu Shizi's face became serious at this time, he had never had anything to do with the prince and King Ning, what did the prince ask him to do, and he still sent his guards who did not leave him, or on this big night?
"Yes, the prince asked you to go now." The black shadow and a few dark guards stood straight in front of the young prince and said respectfully.
Xu Shizi knew that he would not go to the prince's mansion, and they would not tell him what the prince was looking for him. So, Xu Shizi added a cloak, took Chenglin, and went out.
When he arrived at the prince's mansion, the prince did not greet him in the mansion, and the black shadow took him to a secret passage again, turning left and right all the way, and the doubts in the heart of the prince became even stronger. After walking some distance, Xu Shizi saw the crown prince and King Ning standing side by side in a cell, and a man of similar shape standing behind them.
"What did the prince call me for?" The prince looked at the prince inquiringly.
The crown prince and King Ning's bodies opened to both sides at the same time, and the man behind them revealed his original appearance, and a fresh and handsome face appeared in his field of vision, with a smile like a breeze on his face, and he shouted at him gently: "Ah Xu~"
The voice was distant and familiar, and Xu Shizi stayed directly on the spot, his mouth moved, and he couldn't say a word. Cheng Lin was so excited that he couldn't cry!
The capital has been lively these days! As soon as the matter of Ning Wangfu passed, the Liwang Mansion came to join in the fun again.
After another two days, I heard that the Liwang Mansion was going to give the prince of Xu, and then carried the smoke feather into the door, and directly carried him as a concubine. was seriously ill and unsuitable to marry a wife, so he stopped the county lord of Minyi outside the gate of the palace of the king of Li; The illness was very important, but he carried a woman from the Qinglou into the Liwang Mansion, obviously not giving Shen Yafei a good face.
And I heard that our new county lord was so angry that he didn't report to the palace for many days. Maybe I'm really angry, maybe I feel that I don't have a face to see people, so I'm hiding. When the queen heard that she was sick again, she hurriedly sent someone to send a bunch of medicinal herbs over, and at the same time added a lot of silver taels, worried that her monthly income would not be enough.
Shen Yafei did hide, but not because she had no face to see people, as people speculated. Instead, she stayed in her pharmacy to study the silver blood grass that Da Yin brought back from Shuicheng, and stayed in the pharmacy for several days in a row, never coming out. Zhiyu and Dabao nervously guarded the door of the pharmacy, delivering food to Shen Yafei from the small cave every day.
It wasn't until fifteen days later that Shen Yafei came out of the pharmacy, her hair was messily tied up, and the color of her clothes had darkened a lot, looking like a crazy woman begging on the street. Maybe it's because Shen Yafei has been taking medicine from the food, and there is no stench on her body that makes people retreat, only a faint smell of herbs.
"I made it!" Shen Yafei didn't care about her image at all, and shouted excitedly as the two of them raised the potions and pills in their hands.
"Really! Miss, you're amazing. The two maids said in unison, with irrepressible excitement on their faces.
Zhiyu walked over to Shen Yafei at the same time to probe her pulse, and after confirming that her pulse was no different, she relaxed her heart.
"Now you go and gather people and make medicine according to my prescription, the more the better. There is also an increase in manpower to grow medicine, to see where there is a suitable place to grow this herb, and buy it. Everything else is put aside. Shen Yafei said with a stern face.
"Yes!" The expressions of the two were also very serious.
Zhiyu led the order to go out, Dabao prepared hot water for Shen Yafei to clean, and changed the water in three bath buckets in a row before the water was clean. Dabao shook his head speechlessly and silently carried out the water in the bathtub bucket bucket by bucket.
It is also rumored that in the past few days when Lord Minyi fell ill, something terrible happened in the palace. I heard that the queen suffered from a serious illness a few days ago, and the imperial doctors were helpless, even Yan Lijun went to see it, but he couldn't see anything, and now he is summoning a divine doctor to the people. No one knows what the disease was, but it was only known that the people who first treated the queen were infected and died soon after.
When Shen Yafei woke up and heard such news, she was also so worried, the queen took such care of her, and she also wanted to show her concern to the queen. So, Shen Yafei dragged her weak body into the palace.
When I arrived outside the gate of the Queen's Palace, I only heard angry scolding and the sound of porcelain breaking on the ground: "Get out, you all get out, I'll get out!" ”
"Lord Minyi." Concubine Ru happened to come over at this time.
"Like a concubine!" Shen Yafei bowed slightly to her.
"Lord Minyi's health is okay?" Concubine Ru asked politely.
"Everything is fine, thank you for your concern!" Shen Yafei replied.
At this time, the palace maid who had just gone in to report came out and said to Shen Yafei: "The queen mother is not feeling well now, she asked the county lord to go back first." Then, he noticed Concubine Ru next to him and said, "Concubine Ru Niangniang should also go back." ”
"Queen, is she okay?" Shen Yafei's pale face showed an anxious expression.
"Lord Minyi has a heart, Niangniang is just infected with a bad disease, and now there is a son of Yan to help recuperate." The palace maid looked reluctant to say more.
Shen Yafei didn't ask any more curiously.
"How long has the Queen been like this?" Shen Yafei asked Concubine Ru next to her.
"It's about ten days, and it's getting worse and worse in the next five days." Concubine Ru smiled kindly and said, "At first, the emperor found out. ”
Shen Yafei raised her eyebrows and chuckled.
"At first, the emperor didn't dislike her, he still came over every day, but he smelled too much of her, and the emperor couldn't stand it, and now he can't come. Recently, there have been many new show girls in the palace, all of whom are young and beautiful. Now I found out that our emperor, who looks at his passion, is actually quite affectionate. Rufei said sarcastically.
"Man!" Shen Yafei said.
"You know?" If the concubine laughs at her, she hasn't married yet, where does this emotion come from?
"I don't understand." Shen Yafei smiled and said, "I originally wanted to see the queen today, but I didn't imagine that she didn't have time, so I went back first." ”
"Good!"
Shen Yafei left the palace, and it was almost noon, "Let's find a restaurant to eat." Shen Yafei proposed, at this point in time, it is difficult to go out once, no matter how you say it, you have to go shopping. Besides, it's been back to Beijing for so long, and it seems that I haven't gone out to play.
Uncle Ji drove the car and took Shen Yafei and the three of them to the restaurant "Jumeizhai" next to Xianxianglou.
The biggest difference between Jumeizhai and Xianxianglou is that it is cheap, Xianxianglou is expensive, and the meals in Xianxianglou are exquisite and unique dishes. Jumeizhai is an ordinary dish that everyone eats on weekdays, and of course there are a few main dishes. For example, the rose bean curd pig's trotters, taro pork ribs, honey barbecued pork, and so on. In addition to these, there are also mountain delicacies and game collected from various places, so Jumeizhai's business is also extremely hot.
But it just so happened that Shen Yafei and Zhiyu and Dabao had just entered the store, and they met Xu Shizi and his new Mrs. Chongxi, it seems that this Chongxi Chong is doing well, and Xu Shizi is now in good spirits!
Wow! It's a good show to watch again! The main room bumped into the Xianggong and took the concubine shopping, hehehe! The people around them stopped their movements and looked at them intently.
"Lord Minyi, what a coincidence." Xu Shizi looked at Shen Yafei with a smile.
"Good day, Son!" Shen Yafei smiled in return.
"Sister~" This is a delicate and soft voice interjected, Yan Yu was twisting her small waist and stepped forward, looking at Shen Yafei in surprise, "It turns out that you are my sister, concubine Yan Yu to my sister to say goodbye!" My sister is really good-looking. Sister. ”
Dabao resisted the urge to throw her out and blocked her in front of Shen Yafei, and separated her expressionlessly.
"Ah~" Smoke Feather exclaimed, "She······ She is······ Shizi~ She looks so terrible! As she spoke, she fearfully ducked into the arms of the young son.
After Shen Yafei and Zhiyu heard her words, they both shot their eyes coldly at her. Unexpectedly seeing the man with a silver mask standing behind Xu Shizi, Shen Yafei felt that there was a familiar smell on his body, and his temperament seemed to have been seen somewhere.
Shen Yafei couldn't help but sweep up and down his body intently, and when she was focused, the familiar smell became stronger and stronger. Shen Yafei's eyes flashed suddenly, and she seemed to know what the smell of this person was.
