Chapter 60: Women's Bitterness (3)
In the end, Mu Hesheng smiled reluctantly, leaned his head on Lan Yi's shoulder, and whispered like he was coquettish to Lan Yi when he was not out of the cabinet: "Don't bother me, I know this is something that can't be shirked, but I really hope that this matter can come later, and later, if Changze is like His Royal Highness King Gong of your family, who clearly spoils me and indulges me, I think your sister will not pass the door so early." ”
She touched the bracelet on her wrist, which was given by Concubine Ying on the day of the wedding, and Wei Changze put it on her personally, "Lan Yi, you know that I really love him, and I also look forward to the feelings of 'I only wish that your heart is like my heart, and I will live up to my love', but it's a pity that the days of having such feelings will be gone so soon." ”
Lan Yi's heart was sour, and she couldn't help but want to shed tears, but if she couldn't hold back, Mu Hesheng would inevitably be even more nervous, so she could only say in a stalk: "Your aunt has experienced this matter, my aunt has also experienced it, and the ladies in the palace have all experienced it, you see, most people, aren't they all doing well?" You told me about the discomfort in your heart, don't be depressed after you go back, otherwise you will have a jealous name to smash it over, wouldn't it be even worse? ”
Mu Hesheng was indignant, "I don't understand, why are we women so bitter!" ”
Lan Yi didn't want her to be more uncomfortable, so she had to say that good days were ahead, but what Lan Yi really thought in her heart was that if God was really merciful, let He Sheng, who had not really suffered hardship, not be worn out by life in the future.
After Mu Hesheng left the house, Wei Changjue came back from the palace, he didn't go to the study, he went straight to the main house, Lan Yi asked, "What's going on in the past two days?" Every time I listen to my father for so long, something big happens in the court? ”
Wei Changjue nodded, "Something happened, Beihu was originally strong and strong, it was the time to invade our Dashun, just in time to catch up with the old lord to die violently, the young master took the throne, at this moment Beihu is in internal turmoil, the father is considering whether to fight back, grain and grass, silver two, soldiers and horses, all aspects, must be integrated to discuss, those of us who are sons, naturally have to learn." ”
Lan Yi nodded, "I see. ”
Lan Yi didn't know how to worry about the major affairs of the family and the country, so she changed the topic and talked about another thing, "Do you know that my second sister is going to enter the Yu Palace?" ”
Wei Changjue bowed, "I know, it has spread all over the palace, and in a few days, the queen mother will issue an edict." ”
Lan Yi sighed, "I don't know what she thinks, so I have to jump into it." ”
Wei Changjue smiled and said: "My lady, put the Yuwang Mansion aside first, and I'll tell you a happy thing - in another month, my father plans to go to the Qiansong Enclosure, and we will naturally accompany us. ”
Wei Changjue thought that after Lan Yi heard this, there would be a glint of anticipation in his eyes, but he didn't expect that the little wife was just stunned, and her body was also a little stiff, and she seemed to be very resistant.
He asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" You don't like that place? ”
Lan Yi hid his uneasiness and asked, "I remember that there was a hunting activity at the end of autumn last year, why is it so early this year?" After all, there was still summer heat. ”
Wei Changjue said: "It's not because of Beihu's matter, my father wants to show people, our royal family in Dashun is also good at riding and shooting." ”
Lan Yi grabbed Wei Changjue's sleeve and said with some eagerness: "Then you must be careful when you ride a horse, and let people check the horses and saddles, don't ...... Don't ......"
Wei Changjue understood, took her hand, and said comfortingly: "I know, last time the Fifth Emperor Brother fell off the horse, you also saw it, so you were afraid." Don't worry, I'm a good rider, that will never happen, when the time comes, someone will find you a pony, how about I take you around the paddock? Or I'll take you on a horse, and don't be funny. ”
Lan Yi nodded, calming down slightly, but inevitably remembered another thing, "Speaking of which, will there be an official's daughter going on this hunt?" ”
Wei Changjue smiled a little unnaturally, but he still told the truth, "There will be." I don't know if there will be more people in the harem, and the fifth emperor brother will be nineteen next year, so it's time to see each other's wives. ”
When Lan Yi saw his expression, he knew it in his heart, and leaned up and asked, "Changjue, is there also a new person in our house?" ”
Wei Changjue looked unhappy, "The fourth emperor brother will soon have a side concubine or concubine, my side is still empty, if the concubine wants to stuff people, she also has her reasons, but I know that the people she picks out will inevitably be towards Changfu Palace in their hearts, how can I accept it?" It's good to have an idea. ”
Lan Yi smiled evilly, "If that girl looks like a fairy, and you just forget these words after seeing it, what can you count?" And in our house, there are not people without concubines. ”
"I see you're making jokes about me more and more now, be careful that I save up and settle accounts with you that night." The words were ambiguous, Lan Yi smiled, his face turned red, and Wei Changjue continued to confess his thoughts, "The concubine and the concubine, how can the status be the same, not to mention that the two of them have a very ordinary family background, no matter how much they have a heart, they will not do anything big, but the daughter of an official family who can go hunting, either the father has a bright future, or the ancestors have accumulated meritorious deeds, and someone supports them, so it will naturally be troublesome if they make a fuss." ”
Lan Yi thought for a while, and said seriously: "If you really think so, I will help you think of ideas, if you can directly push it away when the concubine speaks, then even if you escape once, and then choose the one that suits your heart to enter the house, it is better than a person who is pinched by her." ”
Wei Changjue was very happy, "If the lady can help me keep these troubles out, what more concubine do I want?" You're all there for. ”
Lan Yi gently pushed him, "Sweet words will make me happy." ”
The affection in Prince Gong's mansion was strong, and after a few days, Wei Changjue was busy with the things at hand, and he was tired of being in the main house, when Lan Yi served him to get dressed, he always had to take advantage of it, either to incense it on his cheeks, or to pinch the flesh on her face.
It's a pity that Pei's Mansion and Yuwang's Mansion don't have such a good atmosphere, the queen dictated together, Pei Miaoqing became the concubine of Yuwang's Mansion, although it was worse than the side concubine, she also felt angry.
However, when she went to Pei Gui, hoping that her father could release her biological mother from the firewood room, Pei Gui's face was gloomy, and she obviously didn't think that her daughter had anything to be happy about climbing the high branches.
"Your aunt has made a big mistake, it is impossible to release it in this life, you are the daughter who is going to marry, don't care about these things of your mother's family anymore."
Pei Miaoqing was not convinced, but her face was even weaker and pitiful, "How can the eldest sister be able to point fingers at the family's affairs after she gets married?" Daddy, can't you just hurt my eldest sister and not hurt me, I already have a confused biological mother, if you don't want me, I'm bullied, who else can I count on? ”
As soon as she spoke, Pei Gui had to be soft-hearted, she was not a person who would deal with women, not to mention that Pei Miaoqing had been delicate and weak for so many years, and she was already more loved by him than other daughters.
"Your eldest sister didn't point fingers at family affairs, but she just got close to Aunt Li and occasionally talked about housekeeping. You sisters, I, as a father, all remember it, but your aunt is too confused, and she has to pay for the sins she has done, and if it gets big, it won't be good for you. But since you're getting married, let's take a look at her and say a few words, you can't stay for long, you know? ”
Pei Miaoqing still wanted to fight for it, but Pei Gui directly said something else, blocking all the conversations, "Your sister married to King Gong's Mansion and became a concubine, but you are just a concubine by King Yu's side, I originally wanted to find you an ordinary family to be a lady, but you ...... That's it, you have to remember your identity, serve His Royal Highness and the princess, and don't have the same thoughts as your aunt, otherwise, if you offend the nobles in the palace, no one will be able to protect you. ”
Pei Miaoqing lowered her head, and finally didn't choose to make her father angry at this moment, and said obediently: "Daddy's words, my daughter remembers it, you love me, I love you, if there is a chance in the future, my daughter will definitely take Daddy to the palace to enjoy happiness." ”
"Nonsense, what kind of nonsense is this?" Pei Gui reprimanded, but after all, it was a child's filial piety, no matter how ignorant he was, he listened to it, and he had to teach him earnestly, "Don't say that you are a concubine, even if you are a serious princess, you shouldn't say anything about taking your father over to live." The heavenly family is no better than ordinary people, after the past, you must be careful in your actions and words, you know? ”
Pei Miaoqing nodded again and again, her eyes were full of gratitude and innocence, "Daughter thanks to her father's teachings, I am glad to have your guidance, otherwise my daughter would be really panicked at this moment." ”
Pei Gui was in front of Lan Yi, always feeling that he had something to live in, and he didn't know about the affairs of the inner house, so he was inexplicably shorter, and in front of Pei Miaoyun, because this girl was fast-talking, she didn't look like a very smart child, and she didn't interfere too much with teaching.
So his tone became softer, "Okay, go and meet your aunt, but you have to remember that your aunt deserves the punishment she is receiving now, not only can you not be resentful because of her, but you must also be vigilant, I am worried that the poisonous woman will instigate in your ear and teach all the good children badly." ”
Pei Miaoqing hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Daddy, I am in front of my aunt, mainly to thank her for giving birth to me, I won't believe her words, I only believe Daddy's words." ”
Pei Gui nodded with satisfaction, "You are a sensible child, and you are grateful for the grace of birth and upbringing, but after seeing you today, don't see you again in the future, it's best not to even mention it, having such a mother may have a bad impact on your future path." Your mother, mother-in-law, is Feng, you know? ”
Pei Miaoqing is not willing to recognize Feng Ying as her mother, but she can stretch and bend, she is a handsome man who knows the times, and when she replies, she is as kind as Gui Rulan, "Knowing Daddy, I will say goodbye to my aunt again, which is considered to be the love between mother and daughter, in the future, I will only put Daddy and my grandmother in my heart and be filial, and I will never do anything that makes Daddy and the Pei family embarrassed." ”
Pei Gui sighed, "You are really more sensible than your sisters." Let's go over. ”
Pei Miaoqing retreated, and walked all the way to the firewood room where Aunt Bai was imprisoned, with Pei Gui's order, this time her visit was above board, and the people guarding outside would not stop her, and helped her open the locked firewood door.
In the sound of "squeak", the dust rushed out from inside, obviously no one cleaned it, and Aunt Bai didn't do any cleaning, Pei Miaoqing fanned it with her hand, took a breath, and smelled the unpleasant musty smell again, and her brows furrowed slightly.
The people inside heard the movement, but they just lay on a thin couch, without even saying a word, Pei Miaoqing waved her hand to keep the guards away, and then personally closed the door tightly, stepped forward, and said hesitantly while looking: "Auntie? ”
Hearing these two words, Aunt Bai seemed to suddenly come to life, and the carp turned over as if she was stiff, but because of her weakness, she could only pounce on the couch in the end, and instantly became a dying fish on the chopping board. Since she hadn't taken a bath for a long time, there was a faint unspeakable smell on her body, and with these movements, she went straight to Pei Miaoqing's nostrils.
Miss Jiao, who was proud of the spring breeze, really couldn't accept such a scene, although it was her own mother, but she hesitated and didn't rush over for the first time.
Aunt Bai still didn't feel the other party's dislike, a joyful smile appeared on her face, and beckoned: "Miaoqing, you are finally here, you come, you come, my body, I shouldn't be able to get out of bed." ”
Pei Miaoqing finally rubbed over, gritted her teeth and was ruthless, held her mother's hand, and asked, "Why did you become like this?" Don't you usually take care of yourself? It was you who told me, aunt, that women have to be decent all the time, otherwise they will bore men. ”
"You girl, as soon as you come over, you will talk about me, I want to be decent, but I haven't worked for many years, and I'm sick like this, how can I pick it up? Besides, I'm having a hard time getting hot water from them now, so what did you do before? Aunt Bai was very excited, she didn't care about the alienation between Pei Miaoqing's words, and asked anxiously, "You can come to see me, did your father promise to let me out?" Did you follow what I said, climbed to His Royal Highness King Yu? ”
She was too anxious, and her body was weak and couldn't hold on, so when she finished speaking, there was a series of coughs, spitting stars flying all over the sky, some splashed on Pei Miaoqing's face, with the stench brewed after not opening her mouth for a long time, which made Pei Miaoqing's stomach turn upside down, in addition to being a little distressed, the bigger feeling was that she couldn't get up and leave immediately.
She pressed the disgust in her heart and forced her mouth to speak.
"Auntie, the queen mother of the palace has made an edict, I have become the concubine of His Royal Highness King Yu, and in ten days, I will enter the palace."
Aunt Bai's haggard face was lit up by a sentence, and there were tears in her eyes almost immediately, "I know, I just know, you are promising, now, no one can fiddle with our mother!"
