Chapter 191: The Child

King Su's departure from Beijing has given a simpler understanding to the hearts of the hundred officials and people who have all kinds of speculations about the future lord of the dragon chair, a person has been put forward to live, and the spring ancestor worship ceremony is in front of him, it seems that the situation has been developing like the plan of the Son of Heaven, although Ning Xiao's marriage is also regarded as the strength of the Rui King Ning Zhiyuan has improved again, but Ning Xiao is only a princess who is not liked by the emperor after all, so it has not caused much turmoil among the hundred officials and people.

King Ning's return was vigorously criticized by the imperial historians of the Imperial Procuratorate, but these old stubborn people tried their best to speak, and they couldn't make the emperor say a heavy word to his cousin with a cold face.

The peaceful days passed very quickly, and the white horse passed through the gap and the stars shifted. In the blink of an eye, it went from the ninth to the fourteenth of the first month.

Ning Zhiyuan got up on time every day and went back when he entered Wenyuan Pavilion on an errand, and he could only return to his house even after sunset and moonrise, although he was busy, he enjoyed it.

Du Yiyi has been busy with some matters since the ninth day of the new year for the shops on Choma Street and the sowing of the spring farm, although he is busy, he is also tireless.

Qinglan is still elusive, only occasionally showing up, and most of the time no one knows where she will be.

Ning Yi came to the Rui Wangfu twice, once he didn't see Ning Zhiyuan, and the second time he waited until late at night, Ning Zhiyuan hid in Zhao Jing's house that day and stayed overnight, Ning Yi had to leave in a huff.

King Ning fought with Shen Ke, who had recovered from his injuries, and as Ning Zhiyuan said, he was defeated, and he had to keep his promise under the fiasco, so that Ning Yi went on a hunger strike for three days.

Ning Xiao has no longer left the palace since he was married by the emperor, and was restrained by Qi Zhaoyi in the palace all day long to learn everyone's beautiful manners.

After Ning Chaoge left Beijing from King Su, he quickly engulfed the power that Ning Chengyou had painstakingly developed, and the crown prince who was about to move into the East Palace after the limelight was over for a while.

In order to show his devotion to his ancestors, the prince began to burn incense and fast since the ninth day of the first month, waiting for the day of ancestor worship to come in the same way.

After arriving in Suzhou, the Marquis of Zhenguo, Chang Shenghou, ordered his men to send back the news quickly, and won a complete victory after a confrontation with the Tibetan border patrol iron cavalry.

The emperor who received the news summoned Shen Ke, Fan Dong, Xiong Huaiyuan, and Xi Zhengai into the palace, and ordered Zhao Jingzhi to go to Suzhou to supervise the army.

14. The Tibetan delegation arrived in the capital.

On the night of the fourteenth, the peaceful capital finally began to be lively again.

Because tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, because the Tibetan mission brought a request from the Tibetan king Buzanla.

In the sentence that Shen Ke asked Xu's mother to bring, the life of the parents has been cut off, and it is also this sentence that Ning Zhiyuan returned to the palace on the afternoon of the 14th and did not go out for a day.

"The Tibetan mission really brought Bu Zanla's marriage proposal, fortunately, my father had already made a move, and now that Ning Xiao's marriage contract has been decided, Bu Zanlan's dream of asking the princess to marry is about to come to naught!"

Thinking that Ning Xiao's marriage was also a contribution, the joy in Ning Zhiyuan's heart alone became a little stronger.

"Tubo has already clashed with the soldiers and horses of Suzhou, and the Tubo mission entered Beijing at this time, but it was intended not to let the people of the capital have a good Lantern Festival! Can I have a day off tomorrow? ”

Du Yiyi was lying on the bookcase looking at the list that the housekeeper had released in the afternoon, and she had to agree to nod some money this month.

"There is half a day, if you have an arrangement, there will be a day!"

Ning Zhiyuan leaned comfortably on the soft couch, looked at the peach tree that had already budded outside the window, and listened to the crisp chirping of a few sparrows that nested on that locust tree a few days ago, and the cool air of the hands pillowing behind his head slowly dissipated.

"There is a lantern festival during the Lantern Festival."

In a simple sentence, Ke Ning Zhiyuan knew what the second half of the sentence that was hidden because of shyness or laziness to say it meant.

"I'll be free tomorrow night."

"When is the spring festival set?"

"Mid-February!"

"You're not here in the morning, King Chao is here!"

Ning Zhiyuan tilted his head in shock, and the hair that was pressed between the back of his head and his palm was a little loose. "What is he here for?"

"He invited us to his house tomorrow for the feast!" Du Yiyi thought about it and filled in a clause at the end of the list, she had promised to give the tenants free replacement of farm tools, and this money could not be used in the fields.

With a sneer, Ning Zhiyuan tilted up and said lazily: "It's not a taste to go to his house to eat Lantern Festival!" ”

"It's not a taste, but it's going to go." Du Yiyi raised her head in displeasure and glared at the person in front of her.

Ning Zhiyuan looked away, got up and walked to the center of the study, looked up at the row of calligraphy and painting stickers, and looked at the scrapped calligraphy and painting stickers, the more excited he became. "Ning Yi, that girl, when will you go into the palace to have a look! I've been on a hunger strike for three days! ”

"Distressed?" Du Yiyi raised her eyebrows lightly, and the corners of her mouth smiled.

Thinking of the excerpt he saw in Lu Shoufu's hands today, Ning Zhiyuan couldn't laugh, "I'm afraid there will be changes, Tubo is my Dahe friend, now Suzhou is unstable, the Fuhu military mutiny is too damaging to my Dahe, most people are inclined to kiss and renew the hundred-year alliance, but the father has already made a marriage contract for Ning Xiao first, the princess is gone, and someone in the court has started the idea of Ning Yi's unmarried county lord, although King Ning and his father are just cousins, but King Ning is better than the four princes and father." , Ning Yi's weight as the county lord is not low. ”

"How could King Ning agree! These people really dare to think! ”

The happy and harmonious atmosphere was suddenly overshadowed, Ning Zhiyuan was worried that Ning Yi would marry him, and now he was also worried that she would be tied up by the government to marry Buzanla, he was afraid of Ning Yi, but he did not hate.

"If it's really a state affair, it's hard to say, what my father means is to choose an unmarried county lord among these vassal kings to be a princess, and people like my father who can't tolerate Ning Xiao are reluctant to marry Ning Xiao to Tubo, not to mention those vassal kings, if you want to love me, it's also difficult!"

"Why don't you sacrifice your life to save you?"

In the face of Du Yiyi's ridicule, Ning Zhiyuan could only give a roll of his eyes and did not speak.

When there was silence, sudden footsteps sounded outside the house, and He Erli said respectfully outside the threshold: "Lord, Lord, Concubine De is here!" ”

Concubine De is here! Ning Zhiyuan tightened his brows and stretched, glancing at Du Yiyi, who was walking out of the bookcase, with a hint of joy.

"Where now?"

"There is a housekeeper leading the way to Huaiyuju!"

Concubine De Niangniang went out of the palace alone but did not say hello in advance, as far as she knows, Concubine De Niangniang, whose family has declined, has not been out of the palace without permission for many years, why did she come this time? When she thought about it, a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she remembered that when Ning Zhiyuan forced her to move to Huaiyu Residence, she had mentioned this Concubine De.

Fortunately, I didn't buy the iron screen in a rage, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with the surprise attack of Concubine De today!

"Let's go, let's go and meet you!" The screen in the bedroom will be moved back to its original place after the two of them collapse, and the bedding on the kang has also been received in the wardrobe, so there is no need to panic at this time.

Du Yiyi nodded, and walked out of the study with Ning Zhiyuan, but when she walked out of the door, she saw Concubine De Niangniang who was led by the housekeeper outside the courtyard gate.

Concubine De only took a few palace maids, and when she didn't see other nobles in the palace, thinking that Concubine De was a good person in the end, Du Yiyi's nervousness suddenly disappeared, and she immediately lifted her skirt and hurriedly greeted her.

"I've seen Concubine De Niangniang!" Ning Zhiyuan gave his hand, and Du Yi relied on his blessing body.

"Get up!" Concubine De raised her hand and said gently. "I was bored in the palace and wanted to come to you to have a look, I didn't say hello to you, don't blame me for coming at the wrong time!"

Seeing that Ning Zhiyuan was just laughing happily, Du Yiyi, who was afraid of the embarrassing situation, could only take over the conversation: "Where, where!" Concubine De Niangniang is a person who can't be invited on weekdays! It's just that I didn't know that Concubine De couldn't go out to greet her, and I ask for forgiveness! ”

"Come in and talk! Yiyi, don't be too polite to me, Zhiyuan, what about Mr. Changliu in your house? ”

Concubine De moved lightly, cordially took Du Yiyi's arm, and followed her into Huaiyu Residence.

"I'm going to have someone scream!" Changliu hurriedly asked the housekeeper to go to Changliuyuan.

"Don't you still have a concubine in this house, I think I haven't seen it yet, so call me to meet it!"

"Qinglan has something to do today, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for a while!"

Ning Zhiyuan has rarely gone to the backyard since she moved into the front yard, and she can't say for sure if Qinglan is not there, but Ning Zhiyuan insists that Qinglan should go to do things for him again this time.

Concubine De nodded slightly, no longer said, as soon as she entered the hall, her eyes were wandering around, although it was not in line with her previous quiet temperament, but no one could say anything about her identity, Du Yiyi took her into the bedroom in a hot sweat and led her around twice.

"I heard that your husband and wife lived in separate rooms after they got married, I wanted to talk about it, and I was relieved to see that you are now in the same room! Yiyi, you have been married to Zhiyuan for three months! ”

Concubine De turned around twice and sat on the kang, her gaze no longer wandering.

"Back to Concubine De, there are still a few days and three months!"

Concubine De didn't notice anything unusual, nor did she show anything unusual, Du Yiyi was finally able to spit out the mouth she had been holding since she saw Concubine De.

"It's been such a long time, you have to hurry up about the child's affairs!" Concubine De took a sip of tea calmly and glanced at the two of them with deep taste.

"It's to hurry, it's to hurry!" Ning Zhiyuan accompanied the smiling face, and Du Yiyi, who was embarrassed, was even more annoyed.

"With children, the relationship between husband and wife can be consolidated, although you are still young, you still have to plan early. There is a way to plant trees early and enjoy the shade early, and children should be early! Concubine De put down the teacup with a chuckle, and stared at Du Yiyi who was blushing with dignified and peaceful eyes. Yiyi, you have had a serious injury, I heard that it is a great loss to your body, you should pay more attention to tonic on weekdays, so that you can consolidate your foundation and cultivate the yuan, and you will not waste your children if you have children in the future! ”
