Chapter 212: Winter Solstice

After the incident of Bo Xi's youngest son came out, Guiyuan Bofu refused to give up, and wanted to let Bo Xi's father and son pay for their lives.

Not only did they implicate the old incident two years ago, but the deceased Uncle Gui still had some evidence in his hands that Bo Xi had privately exchanged money and food for disaster relief and ordered someone to murder the escort officers and soldiers.

The youngest son of Uncle Guiyuan bit the Bo family to death and refused to let go, followed by King Rui, the Nan family, as well as the eldest prince and Shi He and others, and the whole thing rushed in a direction that no one expected.

At this time, Bo Xi didn't want to keep his son, and now it is impossible for him and the entire Bo family to get out.

Bo Chong was implicated by him and was reprimanded by Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty one after another.

And Concubine Yu also became the second person to be angered by Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty after Concubine Hui.

Although Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty did not like to let Concubine Hui be grounded, he also ordered Concubine Yu's palace to be sealed for her to reflect in the palace, but he directly took back the right to assist Concubine Yu in the hands of the six palaces, returned it to the queen, and even canceled the privilege of the Bo family's daughters to enter the palace to visit Concubine Yu at any time.

Concubine Yu seems to have been unpunished on the surface, but anyone can see that she has already shown a state of losing power.

Without the emperor's favor, she would no longer be a high-ranking favorite concubine, but just an ordinary palace concubine.

After the Bo family knew about Concubine Yu, they were even more like walking on thin ice, and Bo Chong almost turned gray overnight.

He secretly asked people to send news to the palace to find the queen mother, so that she had to keep Concubine Yu no matter what, so that the second prince would not be affected, as long as the second prince was fine, the Bo family would still have ups and downs.

If even the second prince is implicated......

Bo Chong couldn't even think about what the consequences would be.

……

The DPRK and Beijing were disturbed, but it did not affect the atmosphere of the winter solstice in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion at all.

The emperor was furious, the prince accompanied him in front of the saint, and Xie Qingheng stayed in the mansion.

And Xie Yuan and Xie Qin also rested at home on the day of the winter solstice, and even Xie Yong, who liked to mess around outside, stayed in the mansion.

In the entire Xuanping Marquis Mansion, except for the fourth Xie Yan family who was far away in Wuding, everyone else had arrived.

On the day of the winter solstice, the kitchen is probably the most lively place in the entire Hou Mansion.

Mrs. Xie was in a rare mood, and took the ladies of the house into the kitchen, not only made dumplings, but also boiled a large pot of mutton soup in a huge clay pot according to the previous way of eating in the water village.

When it was time to eat, the table was full of delicate dishes.

In addition to the skills of the cooks in the kitchen, Wu and Wang also had a hard time cooking today, and made their own dishes on the table, and in the middle of the table there was a large urn of mutton soup, which smelled a rich fragrance, but it was not at all, so that several people in front of the table were a little saliva.

And Mother Liu and Xie Yuan also rarely stopped Mrs. Xie and put two plates of sweet lily crisp and marzipan in front of her.

Old Madam Xie sat in the first place, holding the letter sent back by Xie Yan in her hand, smiling so much that she couldn't see her eyebrows.

"Mother, what did the fourth brother say in the letter?" Xie Yuan asked.

After handing the letter to Xie Yuan with a smile, Old Madam Xie said: "What else can I say, but it is the same as in previous years, my mouth is as sweet as smeared with honey, and I haven't come back from such a distance, but I am thinking about everyone in the house." ”

Xie Yan has a different personality from Xie Yuan and Xie Qin since he was a child.

He is much more clever than Xie Yuan, not as straightforward as him, but he does not have Xie Qin's rigor and unsmiling.

Xie Yan's temperament likes to play, and he is somewhat similar to the boss Xie Yong.

When he was young, Xie Yan's temperament was a bit hanging, he was the famous child king in Beijing, and he often led those families in other mansions to make trouble in the capital, and people hated it when they were mentioned.

Later, he was cleaned up by Mrs. Xie several times, and was thrown into the army for a few years of training, and Xie Yan's character was slowly corrected.

Xie Yan likes to play around, even if he is an official, he still retains a little bit of his original intention, and he has the best relationship with the children in the house.

Before he left Beijing, Xie Qingheng and his favorite thing was to run to the fourth room, and Xie Yan didn't look like an elder at all, as long as the government was not busy, he would lead a group of half-grown children out of the city to play.

In the past few years, Xie Yan has been busy "reclamation" for the imperial court in Wu'an, and has not returned to Beijing for several years.

But even if he can't come back, every year during the New Year's holidays, he will always send a letter back in advance, and even with the gifts of those children in the house, he has not missed it every time.

Old Madam Xie said with a smile: "He said this time that he has collected a lot of strange things, many of which are invisible to our capital, you ......."

Old Madam Xie turned her head to Xie Qingheng and said:

"After eating, I will divide the gifts from your fourth uncle."

"And Ruan Ruan, your fourth uncle specially prepared a gift for you, and your fourth aunt and two brothers also brought you a meeting gift, and you will go with them to get the gift when you come back."

Su Ruan was slightly stunned when she heard this, but she didn't expect her to have a share.

In the previous life, the Xie family was defeated too quickly, from the time Xie Qingheng followed the prince into an accident, the Xie family was like a plague, from Xie Qingheng to Xie Qin, Xie Yong, and then to Xie Yuan and Mrs. Xie, and then spread to the entire mansion. ”

Just like the vast mansion was overturned, no one in the entire Xuanping Marquis Mansion was able to escape, and Xie Yan, who was far away in Wuding, was directly cut down by Yuwensu before he could return to Beijing, and all the family died in Wuding.

Su Ruan had never seen this fourth uncle in his two lives, and he didn't expect that he would still have her share when he came back with a gift.

Su Ruan felt a little guilty and a little moved.

In the last life, she missed too much good and killed too many innocents, and it was because of the sincerity of the Xie family that she felt guilty for half her life.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Old Madam Xie asked, "What's the matter, I'm afraid that the gift from your fourth uncle is not to your liking?" ”

Su Ruan hurriedly came back to his senses and shook his head, and said with a light smile: "No, it's enough for the fourth uncle and them to remember me, I'm just thinking, I haven't met the fourth uncle and them yet." ”

Old Madam Xie laughed when she heard this: "Don't worry, after he returns to Beijing, you will have time to see him." ”

Xie Qingyang, who was next to him, listened to Xie Yan come back with a gift, and suddenly said, "Grandmother, did the fourth uncle say that he gave anything?" Is there a unique golden silk bloodstone in the western frontier that I asked for before? I also want to use the search for someone as an inkstone. ”

Xie Jinyun also raised his hand: "And I still have me!" ”

"I also asked someone to bring a letter to the fourth uncle, and I want him to get me some cloud water yarn back, did the fourth uncle bring it to me?"

She's been wanting that cloud for a long time!
