Chapter 45: The Storm Fills the House (XII)

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++ the dividing line of the mountain rain and the wind full of buildings (XII).

After Mrs. Tang experienced the turmoil of searching Xinjie's yard that day, she seemed to be depressed for several days. That night, her companion Fang Hong's family was finally pardoned by the old lady, but in Mrs. Tang's opinion, it was her own subordinate who slapped her in the mouth, which was a fatal wound for her, who had always been competitive. Since marrying into the Tang family, she has despised them and felt vulgar, she came out of a family like Dongtingbo Mansion, and her subordinates were three points smarter than the people of the Tang family. But for so many years, under the strict style of the Tang family, she has hardly seen people who eat inside and outside. The first time I saw it this time, it was actually my own roommate. And her other room, the son of the Xie family who is in charge of the Luoyang branch of Baicaotang, is now guarded by Xinjie, she can't ask the whereabouts and reasons, she vaguely feels that this matter is not as simple as she originally thought.

On that day, the Hong family brought out the talisman and the abolished prince. Her pre-gratitude to her family is also related to this matter. On the third day after copying the third courtyard, Tang Lan came back from outside, and she hurried to see him. Although her husband's demeanor was still as detached as usual, she always felt that there was more coldness in his eyes. Especially when it comes to Qu Hong. In the past ten years, she has been very conflicted, she hopes that Tang Lan will accept Qu Hong, so that he will forget the woman of the Yu family, and he will not often snub her for the sake of the third child. But she didn't want him to really accept Qu Hong, this woman who was lethal to men regardless of her talent and appearance, if she really accepted her, I was afraid that Tang Lan would not look at her in this life.

When she married Tang Lan, he was just a minor official who had just won the martial champion and was awarded the fifth grade. The Tang family is not a meritorious family and has no title. As the concubine of Dongting Bofu, she was surrounded by young children from old families in the capital, many of whom were handsome and talented. In particular, the senior brothers who studied with her in Yuelin Academy were particularly outstanding. Since she knew about human affairs, she has always felt that her husband is in that circle, and never thought that one day her father would marry her to a low-ranking military attaché. Although her mother-in-law and the queen in the palace are sisters, in her eyes, the Tang family is a vulgar military general family, with no interest, and she will not be like those senior brothers.

After the engagement, before getting married, she felt awkward, always feeling that she was a flower stuck in cow dung. After getting married, she found out that Tang Lan was not only in good shape because of martial arts, but also had a handsome face that was very masculine, which made women quite tempted. And although he is a martial champion, he is also very proficient in writing and ink poetry and calligraphy, especially with one hand, even the master who teaches calligraphy in Yuelin Academy is very respectful. In this way, she breathed a sigh of relief, not to marry a white ding. And the more she got along, the more she found that this husband was more experienced and insightful than the children of the family she was used to. Coupled with the royal trust in him and his ability, he has been on the rise. This made her quite proud in her interactions with the official wives, and naturally Tang Lan was more pleasing to the eye.

Although the Tang family is extremely frugal in the allocation of servants, her father-in-law and mother-in-law have never wanted to cut her expenses, and since she got married, she has been accommodating to her. The various shops and goods stores in Beijing are all picking the best products for her to choose. The gifts she gave to her relatives and friends were all of the finest or rare, which made her feel like she was covered with gold flakes and sparkled with gold. And Empress Chen's support for the Tang family made her very popular in various banquets and gatherings, and her vanity was used to the extreme for a while.

Although Tang Lan is not obedient to her, he also respects each other like a guest, and he is not a flowery person, except for her, the wife, there is no connecting room at home. For a few years, she was extremely envied by the women in her boudoir. In her mind, husband and wife might be like that. However, everything was broken with the appearance of the woman of the Jade family. Since then, she has learned that her husband is not incomprehensible, but does not love her at all, and is just a decent couple with her, and he is in love with that woman. Suddenly, she became a laughing stock in the circle of noblewomen in Beijing.

The woman was dead, and she had been happy to be able to restore her husband's heart. But even without her, he had never entered her door. One day, it is said that it was the woman's sacrifice day, and he drank too much wine, so he mistook her for the woman and had Xiao Jiu with her. She still remembers the remorse and disgust in his eyes when he woke up in the morning. Since then, he has not even drunk much.

And that year, they were still in the capital, he was the hot emperor's newly crowned second-grade Shanglin general, the queen mother was his aunt, and the queen mother's Laba banquet in the palace They were invited to the queen mother's family. They took Xintian and the wild seed together, and the wild seed was surprisingly obedient at the banquet, not only won the appreciation of the queen mother and the emperor with a song of snow, but also played a plum blossom snow in a treasure style. Even if she hated him, she had to admit that his song "Plum Blossom Snow" was indeed elegant and smart, shaking the hearts of the guests present. It was also at that moment that she saw in her husband's eyes a warmth she had never seen before, and she knew that what he saw at that moment was not the, but the. And she's just as talented as a new talent, but they all treat him as transparent, and no one looks at him, all eyes are on that. And even Xintian bowed to that with a picture of worship, which made her so angry that her chest hurt.

After the banquet, Tang Lan was ordered to go to the Xishan camp to deal with urgent military affairs, and she took her two children home. On the carriage back, she finally couldn't help but hit the. When he returned home, he was even punished in the courtyard to copy scriptures and not to be fed. He began to make noise as she wished, and after saying a few unpleasant words, she had him kicked out the back door. After Tang Lan came back that night, he not only sent all the subordinates in the family to find it, but also used his relationship with the Admiral of the Nine Gates, as well as his friends in the rivers and lakes, to look for that everywhere. She thought that when the child was gone, he would quarrel with her at most, and after a while he would be able to start again. Without that face, which resembled that woman, he would have completely forgotten about that woman. It's just that she didn't expect that what was waiting for her the next day was a letter of resignation, and someone sent her back to Dongtingbo Mansion.

So far, she doesn't feel that she has done anything wrong, the only mistake is to misestimate Tang Lan's importance in the court, and misestimate the dependence of her father and Dongting Bofu on him. Father and brother not only groveled to beg Tang Lan to take back the letter of resignation, but also specially selected a stunning woman like Qu Hong for him in an attempt to make up for him. After his brother and father buried their self-esteem in the soil and begged each other repeatedly, for the sake of Xintian and Xinye, who had just been born, he withdrew his letter of resignation.

For more than ten years, she has watched Qu Hong follow her husband in and out with ambivalence, and she has also watched her try to seduce her husband again and again, but without success. Now that Qu Hong has an accident, she is surprised, unexpected and sad. At the time of sadness, she quickly thought that Qu Hong was familiar with her brother more than ten years ago. And at that time, if she was a chess piece, it was someone who started to lay out a long time ago, but I don't know if this Qu Hong was laid out for the Tang family, or if someone with ulterior motives was originally aimed at the eldest brother. But the eldest brother put it bluntly, he has a knighthood, but he has no real power, and he is basically a wasted person. If it is aimed at the Tang family, then I don't know if the eldest brother is involved. If Tang Lan finds out if he is here, will he implicate the eldest brother and the Li family. The more she thought about it, the more scared she became. decided to go to Tang Lan and ask.

She hesitated and wandered, only to see Tang Lan hurriedly preparing to go out, thinking that Bing Fu and the third child had been out for many days and had not returned, no matter how stupid she was, she knew that something big had happened. Fortunately, Tang Lan was still worried about her face, and told her to take care of the housework at home, not to go out recently, at least not to give up on her completely. A little relieved. However, he couldn't let go of his doubts in his heart, and finally repaired a book and asked Liu's mother's son Liu Zhong to send it to Beijing to Dong Tingbo in person. Fortunately, she was afraid that others would know, so she sent Liu Zhong to deliver the letter, and this Liu Zhong stopped on the road, slowly all the way to Beijing, just in time for the day when Yixiang forced the palace with foreign killers. If Dong Tingbo had received her letter earlier and discussed the matter with his eldest son, the news would have leaked out, I am afraid that it would be another world. Many years later, when Tang Lan knew about this, he sighed in his heart that the Li family was rarely smart, and this time something almost happened. It's really a time and a fate. That's for later.
