One hundred and fifty-two: family affairs

"It's so good!" Yao Chuxi slowly squatted down, gently touching the little young leaves, his fingers didn't dare to use any force, just caressing carefully, smiling from time to time.

"Like a child." Yao Chuxi's expression when he looked at these two pots of flowers was like looking at his own children.

"Or," Frost said, "you name them?" ”

"Great idea!" Huzi also responded on the side.

"But this is not a person after all..."Yao Chuxi was a little embarrassed, and couldn't think of any suitable names for them for a while, "I have to think about it..."

Frost went into the temple and took out a pen and paper.

Yao Chuxi took the pen and paper, put it on the edge of the flower bed from the square plate, and thought about it seriously.

"How is the spring warbler and the green magpie?" Yao Chuxi asked.

"The slave is a rough man, but he doesn't understand these things, but all he can hear are birds."

Huzi snickered on the side.

"What, you know?" Yao Chuxi turned his head to look at Huzi.

"When the slave was in the Sihua room, the master taught a few words, if it is literally understood as two birds, it can be seen that the little master yearns for freedom, and likes the feeling of the revival of all things in spring."

Yao Chuxi smiled when he heard this answer.

It's not because Huzi is right, but because his inner drama is too heavy.

She only felt that the spring warbler and the green magpie rhymed together, and didn't think about anything else, but this tiger, and thought that there was some meaning in her name.

However, she still rewarded Huzi.

may be understanding her hard work when she is pregnant, and two days later, the emperor summoned the Fang family into the palace again.

Yao Chuxi only heard the news when he got up early, so he ordered Luo Yu and Han Shanggong to prepare a table to greet the Fang clan.

The Fang clan entered the palace in the afternoon, and Duan Kui took Jiang Liu to pick him up, and accompanied him all the way to Yingxue Pavilion.

She still remembered the way to Yingxue Pavilion, but she didn't use them much, and she remembered it after thinking about it for a while.

"The little master heard that you were coming, but he couldn't sit down and eat, so he was busy early in the morning and asked the slave to pick him up, and the slave also said, this lady hasn't entered the palace yet, where do you let the slave go to pick it up!"

After listening to Jiang Liu's words, Fang Shi covered his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "This girl is purely spoiled by me at home!" ”

After walking for a long time before entering the back garden, I only turned a corner and saw Yao Chuxi waiting in front of the door with someone.

"Mother!" Yao Chuxi walked two steps briskly and met Fang Shi face to face, "Are you tired?" ”

"No, the weather is good today, so it's time to bask in the sun!" Fang Shi smiled and said, "Let's go, let's go in!" ”

Yao Chuxi held the Fang family, the Fang family supported Han Shanggong, and Luo Yu supported his master, and several people entered the door together.

There are people passing by who can see it all, and it doesn't take long to turn around and make up things with noses and eyes.

"How are you doing? Have you ever had morning sickness? After entering the door, Fang asked.

This is a mother's concern for her daughter.

Yao Chuxi shook his head, "I haven't vomited for a while, mother, I didn't vomit when you came last time, by the way, where did you come this time?" Is it at home? ”

"Yes, come by carriage, send me to the palace gate and return, and come back in a few days."

"So you mean you're going to live here?" Yao Chuxi couldn't control her excitement: "Fortunately, my daughter was prescient!" Let the rain clean up the house early, and they are still in Han Shang Palace! ”

Fang and Han Shanggong looked at each other and smiled, "This looks like a person who is going to be a mother, but he still talks and acts like a child!" ”

"Are you okay at home?" Yao Chuxi ignored his mother's jokes, and instead began to care about family affairs: "Is my father still used to living in Beijing?" Are you usually tired from top to bottom? Is home far from the palace? ”

"Your father was a tossing personality when he was a child, where can he not get used to it?" Orchestrating his own officials, the Fang clan gushed endlessly as if there was no door in his mouth, "It doesn't matter if it's close or not, but you don't know your father?" It was a ride in a carriage and dizzy, from Xiezhou to Beijing on the way I heard that it was vomited four or five times, this up and down the court also rarely took the carriage, can go by themselves, although most of the horsemen are generals, but your father will occasionally ride a horse to the court. ”

As he spoke, Luoshuang brought two plates of dim sum, and Luoshuang behind him held a bamboo basket full of grapes and cherries.

"Where did this cherry come from?" Fang asked.

It's not that she hasn't seen cherries, on the contrary, she has seen a lot of cherries, but she has never seen such big and ruddy cherries, and now is not the time to produce cherries.

"The emperor rewarded it." Yao Chuxi didn't care, he picked one up casually and handed it to the Fang clan, "I heard that you entered the palace and specially asked the palace people to send it." ”

Fang Shi hurriedly stood up, and was about to kneel.

"Mother, don't do that." Yao Chuxi hurriedly helped her.

"Xi'er, you don't understand, this is etiquette, the emperor's reward is more important than life!"

Yao Chuxi thought to himself, 'It's true that my father has been promoted, and now he is careful everywhere, and he is not too tired to hold a shelf.' ’

But in fact, her Yao family still respects the emperor very much, even if she doesn't promote Yao Zhice, she still has to be grateful when she sees that the emperor has rewarded the fruit Fang's family.

"Cherries are not abundant in this season, these are all transported from the south, and they came here half a month in advance, just in time for you to arrive today, and they will be delivered in the morning."

Luoxue helped Fang Shi sit back and poured her another cup of tea.

"I still have to be grateful." Fang Shi was a little cramped and uneasy, and he didn't eat a few of the biggest cherries.

The mother and daughter haven't seen each other for a while, so it's inevitable that they will have to greet each other for a while.

Until dinner in the evening, the two were still talking.

"Mother, do you know, Bai Jingxue has entered the palace and is now being assigned to the Wanmo Pavilion."

"Bai Jingxue?" When Fang Shi mentioned her, his brows furrowed slightly, and his face was worried.

"What's wrong Mother?" Yao Chuxi panicked when she saw her mother's expression, "But what's wrong with Jingxue?" ”

Fang Shi nodded, "Before entering Beijing, I heard that the Bai family was going to send Bai Jingxue into the palace, and at first I thought that the emperor couldn't accept her, but then I didn't ask too much, and I didn't think that she really entered the palace." Then Fang Shi paused, looked into Yao Chuxi's eyes and said, "You have to be careful of her." ”

Yao Chuxi suddenly felt a touch of sadness in her heart, even if she thought that Bai Jingxue, who had grown up with her since she was a child, would become bad, she never thought of telling this fact from the mouth of the person closest to her.

Now it seems that Bai Jingxue has bad intentions, which is a sure thing.

"When she was in Xiezhou, she didn't stop, I heard that the emperor was trying to pick up the voters, and I heard that in order to succeed in the election, I also stuffed a lot of money."

Han Shanggong answered, "The slave maid has inquired about her Bai family, she is a wealthy person, and she will use silver money to pave the way." ”

"It's more than that." Fang continued: "A few years ago, there was a problem with her Bai family's property, and her Bai father was ashamed to say to those troublesome people that his daughter would enter the palace as a concubine. ”

"Where can this be?" Yao Chuxi was originally on the table, but after hearing this, he sat up straight directly, "How could the emperor's name be used casually by her Bai family to bluff people outside?" Who are the ones who are willing to believe? ”

"I didn't believe it before, but then this matter got bigger and bigger, and the people who selected it also decided Bai Jingxue, and those people believed it a little, and the matter was over."

Yao Chuxi was a little incredulous, looked at Fang Shi blankly, blinked for a while, and hurriedly drank a glass of water.

"I spend my days carefully in the palace every day, and I have told you and my father many times outside the palace to carefully consider what you talk and do, how to treat people and things, for fear of causing trouble, but how dare she Bai family do this? When I spread it, I thought that today's saint is a faint king who only likes women! ”

Fang Shi sighed softly, "I haven't told you anything yet, I originally wanted to hide it from you, I was afraid that you would be upset, but now that you are struggling in the palace, I think it is better to tell you, so that you can be prepared in your heart." ”

"Mother, you don't hurt to say it."

Han Shanggong also listened closely.

"Bai Jingxue, she... Before entering the palace, I found her distant cousin, saying that I had discussed marriage with you when you were a child, and you agreed, but your father and I were worried about letting you enter the palace, so we refused this family business. ”

"When?" Yao Chuxi was so angry that he trembled: "She's spewing blood!" I didn't even know there had been such a thing, how could she dare to spread rumors like this? ”

"How could I not have known that she was spreading rumors? I think I was going to inform the emperor after entering the palace, if the emperor was really suspicious and looked for evidence, he would definitely ask her cousin, and I and your father, as your cronies, would naturally help you hide your death and not admit it. ”

Han Shanggong felt that he couldn't get over it when he heard this.

I used to think that Bai Cainu was bent on being favored, so she didn't think about anything special, after all, the women in the palace basically wanted to be favored, not only Bai Jingxue, but her approach to her master made Han Shanggong very incomprehensible.

This is a great crime of bullying, how dare she?

Just to pull her former friend into the water?

This woman's scheming was too deep, but fortunately, the emperor didn't believe her at first, but directly banned her feet, and he didn't summon her for so long.

"Fortunately, this matter was passed around and was known by your father, he went to the Bai family to make a fuss with his life, and asked for evidence and a dowry list, but the Bai family couldn't get anything, as soon as he heard that he was going to report to the official and went to Kaifeng Mansion, Haosheng said, her cousin Bai Jingxue was so scared that she didn't dare to go out."

Han Shanggong laughed after hearing this: "This one newspaper official scared him like this, if the emperor really summoned him to ask, he wouldn't be scared and didn't dare to speak out?" ”

In this way, poor Bai Jingxue is not a smart person, otherwise would she not know that this cowardly person is not competent?

If you want to find someone to frame Yao Chuxi, why don't you find someone more reliable?

If you really can't produce evidence, at least you have to make the emperor suspicious, right? But if that cousin really arrives in front of the emperor, I'm afraid that if he doesn't say more than two sentences, he will have to be trapped, and Bai Jingxue will have to be implicated.

Once the crime of bullying the monarch is decided, it is a capital crime, not to mention Bai Jingxue, even the entire Bai family is afraid that it will be a catastrophe.

Fang Shi smiled: "Fortunately, that person is a coward. ”
