Chapter 4: Father and Daughter (1)
After turning his mind and coming back to his senses, Pei Gui's anger rushed straight to Tianlinggai, he was so angry that he wanted to beat people, and he asked people to ask for family law, and Aunt Bai's favorite scene was that Pei Lanyi was so stupid and deliberately stepped forward to dissuade her, "Master, why bother, the eldest girl is still a child, she is not sensible, and things are already like this, how can you be angry and angry?" ”
Pei Miaoqing and her mother have similar temperaments, and they confessed softly when they took the opportunity, "Daddy, what my aunt said is that if your body is bad, my aunt will secretly wipe her tears every night, and I will feel distressed." Daddy, I will persuade my eldest sister not to do this in the future. ”
Pei Gui turned around at the peak of his anger, but his attitude gradually calmed down, and he suddenly felt a sadness in his heart, he didn't expect that the daughter born to him and his wife would become so stupid and arrogant.
At this time, a servant outside said, "Master, the family law has been invited." ”
Aunt Bai glanced at Pei Gui, "hey", and read: "What are you really invited to do?" The eldest girl is just a girl after all, naughty and naughty, at most she will not marry into the prince's mansion, and when the time comes, the lord will find her a lintel lower than ours, and she will not be wronged if she marries. Why bother asking the family law to make such a big battle? ”
Seeing that Pei Gui was silent, Aunt Bai also guessed that her words were on the other party's heart, and she was still reluctant to fight, in Aunt Bai's opinion, Pei Lanyi did not lack this beating, the important thing is to follow her intentions in the future, choose a person with a low lintel to match Lan Yi, and the eldest lady from this concubine will no longer be able to turn over any flowers.
She hurried a step, went out and said a few words, and told the servant to stand down.
Pei Gui seemed a little tired here, and waved his hand, "Let's disperse today, let's go back and have a good rest." ”
Lan Yi hurriedly followed her cousin to salute, anyway, she was thick-skinned, and it didn't hurt or itch to scold twice, it was better than really being subject to family law. However, her father's voice sounded again, and she was deflated at once.
"Lan Yi, you come with me to the study."
Aunt Bai followed and wanted to say something, but Pei Gui added with a cold face, "No one is allowed to persuade you." ”
Pei Miaoyun gloated, and didn't forget to shake the handkerchief behind her, "Eldest sister is good to go." ”
Aunt Bai instructed her subordinates, "Prepare a set of tea cups, the lord and the eldest girl get angry, and it is common to smash dishes and cups." ”
Wan Yin pulled Wan Yu out, and said worriedly: "Do you want to go over and have a look?" But a place like the study is still my uncle's study, and it's not something we should go to. What if Lan Yi is beaten? ”
In normal times, Wanyu should have been chattering about ideas, but this time she just walked silently towards the Wind Lotus Courtyard.
Wan Yin is simple, just when she is too cold, and it is not a reason to stand here and wait, I think it is better to go back first, and then find a way to inquire about the things in the study, if it really makes trouble again, she has to muster up the courage to save Lan Yi.
To everyone's surprise, the father and daughter entered the study one after the other, but there was no noise of any quarrel.
Pei Gui didn't sit on the chair, but stood in front of the bookcase, and many candles were lit in the room, which were bright and bright, dispelling a lot of the chill of the snow outside. He was silent for a while before he said: "Lan Yi, when I saw you standing there today, I suddenly remembered your mother, we were always so noisy when she was alive, she would lower her head, but the expression on her face was unconvinced. ”
mentioned other things, mentioning her mother, Lan Yi's heart suddenly softened, "Daddy......"
Pei Gui held the bookcase with both hands, didn't look at her, and said to himself: "When your mother was here, there was no such strangeness between our father and daughter, but now that you are older, you have your own ideas, and you don't like to talk to your father about many things." Sometimes when I see you don't admit your mistakes and are paranoid and depressed, I can't help but scold you and beat you, but after scolding and beating, the father regrets it a little. ”
Lan Yi was distressed, she had always been a master who ate soft rather than hard, and her father was like this, which made her uncomfortable than scolding her.
"Daddy, I didn't mean to be alienated with you. But you have a sister and a white aunt, and I don't think you have time to listen to me. And I'm really not good, causing so much trouble outside. ”
Pei Gui shook his head, "Have you done less ridiculous things over the years?" Didn't I forget about it after I made a fuss? How can a father care about this with his daughter? What's more, Ah Ying and I are the only daughter like you, of course I have some high hopes for you, I hope you can fight for your breath and live out your brother's share, but look at it, now Miaoqing Miaoyun has a better reputation than you outside, where has your former calmness gone? ”
The "Ah Ying" in his mouth is Lan Yi's mother Feng Ying, just hearing these two words, Lan Yi's eyes have tears.
Geng Zhi's father's tender side is very little, so he doesn't want people to see it, and after saying the heartbreaking words at this time, he sank his face, turned around slowly, and said solemnly: "If you don't tell me why, I will immediately ask for family law, which is also to show the ladies in the palace and to the saints, and tell them that the daughter of our Pei Mansion is disciplined." ”
Lan Yi wiped his eyes with a handkerchief, choked for a while, and then said, "Daddy, it is rumored that I will become the princess to be so proud." Actually, the daughter doesn't want to marry any prince, any one. ”
Pei Gui was stunned, he had thought of many reasons for the ignorant Lan Yi to suddenly change his temperament, but he never expected it to be this.
He lowered his voice, "If you don't want to marry, it's very likely that you will marry, and what awaits you is not necessarily the position of the princess, but the side concubine." ”
Lan Yi was shocked, and suddenly looked up, and saw that the expression on his father's face was very complicated, and he didn't seem to know whether to tell him or not.
"Why? Although I didn't have a choice, but my reputation was already outside, and I offended Concubine Ying, who could still look at it? ”
"After the discussion in the Qianming Palace last time, the second prince came out and said a few words to me, he said that the concubine Ying has some appreciation for your daring to say and do, although there are many rumors outside that you offend the mother, but I hope I don't take it to heart, the next Chinese New Year's Eve banquet, you enter the palace, you can first go to Changfu Palace to meet the lady and talk to her."
Pei Gui considered his tone, afraid of frightening his little daughter, "I don't know what the concubine thinks, but the people in the palace, what she said may not be true, in case she is still angry and deliberately calls you over to punish you, then the matter will be big." So I specially instructed Aunt Bai to ask her to tell you to ask the concubine to excuse herself when the time comes, and stop being so upright and stupid. ”
Lan Yi calmed down at the moment and asked, "If it were just a few words, Daddy wouldn't think that the name of King Qi's concubine would fall on me." ”
Pei Gui sighed, "I just responded to the matter of the noble concubine at that time, and I heard the second prince say again, 'Lan Yi is good, the last time I saw her riding a horse and holding the reins, she is a refreshing woman, it just so happens that there is no shortage of needlework women in our palace, and there is a shortage of side concubines who travel with this king." Master Pei really gave birth to a good daughter'. “
He slapped his hands heavily, "Look, Lan Yi, isn't this obvious?" ”
Lan Yi was stunned.
Because Pei Gui didn't learn those officialdoms from Master Pei since he was a child, and he lived too smoothly, so he would only go straight, and the second prince Wei Changyuan's words were more subtle, he couldn't understand it, obviously the other party had already inquired about his family's temperament thoroughly, and he did come to himself.
Otherwise, he is a foreign man, how can he call the courtier's daughter's name?
Pei Gui saw that she didn't speak, and thought she was shy, and sighed again, "If your mother is here, she should tell you this, and you are not close to Aunt Bai, I am afraid that your tail will rise to the sky after you learn about it, I wanted to tell you slowly later, and by the way, I just happened to meet you today." ”
Speaking of this, he frowned and returned to the appearance of his strict father in the past, "Lan Yi, the Qi Wangfu is no better than the Pei family, you can't help but be naughty all day long, you were too arrogant before, I have to punish you, punish the second prince and the concubine, and also to tell you that from now on, you can no longer be willful!" ”
Lan Yi suddenly knelt down and said firmly, word by word: "Daddy, I didn't say what I said just now to prevaricate you, I really don't want to marry into the heavenly family, I don't have the ability to fight with them." Just now at Aunt Bai's place, you said that you chose the wrong prince, and it will affect the entire Pei Mansion at best, I know, behind the worst case, the family will be ruined. ”
She raised her head, and her stubborn expression was really the same as her mother's, "Today's saint is in his prime, but these princes below have the ability to take charge of themselves, and I don't know what it will be like in the future." The second prince is so favored by the saint, there must be many people who are jealous of the Qi Palace, if I make a mistake in it and hurt the second prince, Ying Guifei Niangniang will definitely hate me to death, and if I pinch my head casually, I can lose my life. ”
Pei Gui's brows tightened more and more, and Lan Yi was still talking about more terrible things, "Or, after the master of this world changed, but the most favored second prince didn't sit on that chair, so how disgusted must the one who sat on him be?" At that time, everyone in the Qi Palace's Mansion will be implicated, and the future of our Pei Mansion should also be folded here. ”
"That's it! These words can't be said even in Pei's mansion! Pei Gui reprimanded, but obviously Lan Yi made his heart very shocked, he never imagined that such an innocent person could give birth to such a far-reaching girl.
He glanced at Lan Yi strangely and asked, "Have you experienced something and suddenly had so many thoughts?" ”
Knowing the daughter Mo Ruo's father, Lan Yi no longer concealed it, in the end she told the incident of the fifth prince falling from the horse, in the end, she suddenly had tears in her eyes, and whispered: "I don't dare to tell others, for fear of causing trouble to our family, but the five princes seem to be entangled with me, and come to my dreams all night long, Daddy, I'm sorry He was scared again, and he just thought that he could get as far away from the forbidden city as possible in the future." ”
