Remember [69 Chinese Network] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!

The little guy gave the manuscript to Yan Yunge and got a reward, which made him very happy.

If you have money in hand, you want to be chic.

I was not in a hurry to go back to the small courtyard on an errand, ran to the market and went around, and finally went back happily.

As soon as he entered the door, he was as dull as he was, and he also found that the atmosphere was abnormal.

Xu Bo seemed to have been drained of his spirit, hunched over, and old.

Obviously, two hours ago, the person was still in good spirits, as capable as a young and strong young man.

The little guy was a little flustered, "Uncle Xu, are you okay?" Could it be that something happened to Childe? ”

"Oh! You're back. Childe is fine, go and get back to life! Leave me alone. ”

The little guy was skeptical, how could he be okay like this.

It's just that he can't ask the truth.

Shen Shuwen sat in front of the window, reading intently.

The light was a little dim, and he didn't bother to light a candle.

The little guy hurriedly lit the candle, "Childe is so distressed that his eyes are distressed." ”

Shen Shuwen came back to his senses, "Has the thing been delivered?" ”

The little girl immediately said excitedly: "Returning to the child, the little one did not disgrace his mission, and according to the instructions of the child, he handed over the manuscript to Miss Yan Si with his own hands." She said she loved the gift. She also gave a return gift, a set of four treasures of the study, and two catties of tea.

She asked the little one to tell the son that the tea was from the tea house under her name, and she didn't want money, so she asked the son to accept it. The four treasures of the study are just a return gift, please don't have to be polite. She also said that when Childe went out of Beijing, she couldn't send it off in person, so please forgive Childe! ”

After saying that, the little servant put the basket on the desk.

What was in the basket was Yan Yunge's return gift.

Shen Shuwen hesitated for a moment before opening the lid.

Two catties of tea leaves, packed in a bamboo tube, are written on the north and south tea houses.

The four treasures of the study are all of the highest quality. I'm afraid it's worth no less than a hundred dollars.

He sighed and instructed the servant, "Put it all away!" ”

The little guy hesitated, and stopped talking.

Shen Shuwen stared at him, "What's the matter?" ”

Only then did the little guy say: "When the little one left the county lord's mansion, the steward of the house gave three wooden cards, saying that they were ready-to-wear coupons. Go to the Four Seasons Cloth Village for a wooden card, and you can get three sets of ready-to-wear plus shoes and socks. The small excuse was not enough, so I accepted it. ”

After saying that, he took out the three wooden cards and put them on the desk, feeling a little apprehensive in his heart.

Shen Shuwen frowned slightly, "Are you sure it wasn't given to you by Miss Yan Si, but by the steward of the county lord's mansion?" ”

The little guy nodded again and again, "The little one doesn't dare to deceive the son, it was indeed given by the steward of the county lord's mansion." When the little one was about to go out, he met the steward of the county lord's mansion, and he casually gave the small three wooden cards, saying that within this year, he could go to the Four Seasons Cloth Village at any time to exchange for clothes, shoes and socks. By the time of next year, the wooden card will be invalid. ”

Shen Shuwen took a deep breath, "Since it was given to you, you can accept it." Whether you want to exchange it or sell it to someone else, you make up your own mind. ”

The little guy shook his head again and again, "You can't want the small one." Although the steward of the county lord's mansion didn't say anything, the little one also knew that the wooden sign was for the son. How can the small one take advantage of the son. ”

Shen Shuwen smiled, "This son will reward you with the wooden card now." ”

The little guy still refused to ask for it, and ran out, hiding far away.

Shen Shuwen looked helpless, so he had to accept the wooden card.

……

After Princess Dingtao was cleaned up by the second prince Xiao Chengwen, even though she had returned to the princess's mansion, she still tensed her nerves and looked nervous every day.

Whenever there is a little wind and grass, it will make her panic.

The third prince, Xiao Chengyi, was worried about her, and went to the princess's mansion to visit her on the day of Humu.

Before he came, he didn't realize how serious Dingtao's situation was.

When I meet people, I know that he thinks things simply.

"How did my sister become like this?"

Xiao Chengyi was very distressed.

Dingtao lost weight, more than two laps.

The cheeks, which were originally a little rounded, have become thin and pale.

His eyes rolled wildly, and he looked very uneasy.

Xiao Chengyi frowned tightly and looked at Liu Baoping with dissatisfaction.

Liu Baoping felt very wronged, "After the princess came back from the palace, she became like this. Liberating her, it worked at the time, and then it reverted to this way. ”

Xiao Chengyi gritted his teeth and said to Liu Baoping: "His Royal Highness wants to talk to Dingtao in private. ”

Liu Baoping, the concubine, understood, got up to say goodbye, and gave the flower hall to the two brothers and sisters.

Xiao Chengyi got closer, and he observed Princess Dingtao's expression, "Sister, I'm the third brother." If you have any grievances, you tell me, and I'll find a way for you. ”

Princess Dingtao shook her head again and again, "I can't say anything, I can't say anything." If I talk nonsense, the second brother will be unhappy. ”

As she spoke, her eyes wandered and she looked uneasy.

It seems to be a suspicion that someone is eavesdropping around.

Xiao Chengyi pressed his hands on her shoulders, "Dingtao, you look at me." Tell me, what did the second brother do to you? ”

Princess Dingtao hesitated for a moment, then shook her head, "Second brother didn't do anything, he just reasoned with me and told me that I should learn to grow up." Third brother, don't get me wrong, I'm just losing weight because I haven't had a good diet recently. I'll be fine when the weather warms up in winter. ”

"How are you? Tell me, when was the last time you looked in the mirror? Have you seen what you look like now? You're not good right now, do you know? ”

Xiao Chengyi was very distressed.

No matter how naughty and capricious Dingtao is, she is also her own sister.

He couldn't imagine how ruthless the second brother was to torture Dingtao like this.

He said solemnly: "When I go to find the queen mother, I must ask for an explanation for you." ”

Ding Tao looked at him stunned, and suddenly cried out with a "wow".

She hugged her third brother Xiao Chengyi tightly and refused to let go.

Xiao Chengyi gently patted her back and didn't make a sound.

He just had to stay by Dingtao's side, listen to her cry, and watch her vent.

Ding Tao cried hard, crying so that his hair was messy, his eyes were red and swollen, and he was embarrassed.

But her mood was bright.

After all this time, she finally burst into tears.

Xiao Chengyi asked her, "Do you feel better?" ”

She wiped her tears and nodded, a little embarrassed, "Let the third brother worry about me, it really shouldn't be." ”

"We are brother and sister, and you would be too much of an outsider to say that. Can you tell me, what did the second brother do to you? ”

Ding Tao shook his head, "I didn't do anything, he just locked me up and didn't allow anyone to talk to me......"

She lowered her head and lost her voice.

Xiao Chengyi looked angry, "Why did he treat you like this." Don't worry, I'll definitely ask for an explanation for you. ”

"Thank you, third brother! You, you have to be careful, don't go against the second brother. He ......"

Dingtao couldn't continue.

At this moment, her heart was already dominated by fear.

If she said bad things about the second brother, would it reach the ears of the second brother, and then be cleaned up again?

She didn't dare to say anything, she didn't dare to say anything.

Xiao Chengyi couldn't ask, so he simply went to the palace.

……

With a sense of anger, he came to Weiyang Palace.

Looking at the majestic palace, at that moment, he suddenly calmed down.

Why is he angry?

He can't be angry!

Anger never solves problems, only exacerbates them.

He took a deep breath, walked into Weiyang Palace, met his mother, and bowed down to say goodbye.

Empress Tao was in a good mood and motioned for him to sit down and talk.

He sat on the ground, pondering his words, "I went to visit Dingtao today, and found that she had lost a lot of weight, and she was very frightened. She seems to be afraid of her second brother. ”

Queen Tao was in good spirits today and cooked tea herself, "You entered the palace today just to sue your second brother?" ”

He shook his head, "My son is not here to complain. Just looking at Dingtao in her own princess's mansion, still looking panicked, I felt distressed. She is a woman, and she can't take on a big cause, and she can't afford to take on a heavy responsibility. Why not be lenient with her? ”

Queen Tao had a slap on her hand, she obviously didn't like this sentence.

She said sharply: "Isn't this palace tolerant enough of Dingtao? Since she was a child, she can do whatever she wants, the princess and county lord in the palace, who has not been bullied by her? Every time she gets into trouble, it is the palace that takes care of the aftermath for her. Isn't that tolerance? The reason why Dingtao has become what it is today is because the palace was too tolerant of her in the past.

In the past, Hongu could use her as an excuse when she was a child, but now that she is married, Hongu can no longer continue to indulge her no matter what. If you make a mistake, you will be punished. The sooner you are punished, the sooner you will wake up. The fewer mistakes you make later. You shouldn't blame your second brother, on the contrary, you have to be grateful to him. ”

Ridiculous!

even made him grateful to his second brother.

It's ridiculous.

Xiao Chengyi did not agree with Queen Tao's statement at all.

He retorted: "At the age when Dingtao should have been disciplined, the queen mother did not discipline her. Now, she is married, but the queen mother has moved the idea of disciplining her. Has the queen mother ever thought about whether she can stand it?

Even if you want to discipline, you should do it gradually, not as soon as it comes. Does the queen mother know that Dingtao has been disciplined by the second brother, and she now has a nervous problem. The once cheerful and smiling Dingtao is no longer there. ”

Empress Tao was unmoved, "So what?" People have to learn to grow, and Dingtao is only a few years late. You open your eyes and look around you, who is at Dingtao's age, can still laugh without heart and lungs. As long as it is growth, it must be accompanied by pain. That's how you came, you can do it, why can't you set pottery?

They are all children of the palace, why should she take special care? If she is willing to keep to herself and control her mouth, this palace will never care about her, and it doesn't matter if she lives innocently for the rest of her life. But she can't control her mouth, talking nonsense, don't teach her now, do you mean to wait for her to cause a bigger disaster before disciplining her? You're just confused! Woman's kindness! If you don't understand the cause of the incident, don't be emotional, let alone be self-righteous. ”

Rarely, Empress Tao scolded the third prince Xiao Chengyi.

There was a gleam of anger in her eyes.

Her son must have a conscience, but he must be decisive.

When it is time to be ruthless, you must be ruthless.

If you only talk about conscience and don't talk about cruelty, one day you will be eaten to the point that there are no bones left.
