187. I, have I given you happiness?
The eighteenth year of Suihe, spring.
The weeping willows are like smoke and mist, and the rain is full of green. When the wind blows, it rustles and catkins fly.
In the Heavenly Garden, the scenery is picturesque and beautiful.
In the gazebo, there sat a beautiful and square woman. She wore a vermilion embroidered palace dress of a hundred birds and a phoenix, and a golden hairpin with phoenix beads on her head. His face was slightly gloomy, with a hint of anger.
At her feet knelt another pretty woman, with picturesque eyebrows and pale skin. Wearing the blue and gold court dress of Mrs. Guo, she knelt very respectfully.
"Shen Qingrong, don't kick my nose in the face. What's so good about Xuan'er coming to choose the crown princess, I, who is an aunt, can I still wronged her? ”
"No, I don't! What's good about being the crown princess, it's not good to be the queen mother, the risk is too high. ”
"The two children are childhood sweethearts, and the two are happy, why are you getting in the way. Besides, didn't you say that let the girl decide her own marriage? ”
"Our family Xuan'er is still young, and I want to keep her for another two years."
"It's small, it's sixteen! You'll be married at fourteen. ”
Mrs. Wei pursed her lips disapprerovingly, "That's a marriage, and I don't want to, I can't do it." ”
Queen Runrong got up in person and grabbed Qingrong's arm, "You get up for me, you kneel here with a stomach, what's the matter, you want your father-in-law to go to the emperor to sue me?" ”
Qingrong stood up, and only then did she see that her belly was already very big.
"What can he do if he goes to sue, the emperor is still facing the queen in the end! I don't care, you gave birth to a bunch of sons yourself, but don't try to kidnap my daughter. Qingrong said, pulling Runrong's hand like a coquette, "It's not that you don't know how difficult it is to be a concubine in the heavenly palace." The emperor's harem is three thousand, if my daughter becomes the crown princess, how many love rivals will she have in the future? ”
Runrong was very disapproving, "Look at who the emperor has accepted into the palace over the years, those palace concubines are just old people who used to be in the palace, and some of them are young, and they have no choice but to do so." But none of them came out. Besides, with an aunt like me, who would dare to bully our daughter. ”
Qingrong still had a tiger face, disapproving, "Who knows what kind of temperament the prince will be in the future, in case he is a poor and extravagant ......"
Runrong angrily pinched Qingrong's ears and said, "Little hoof, you grew up watching Zhige, what kind of temperament is he, you still don't know?" ”
Qingrong admitted her mistake repeatedly, and finally said calmly to Runrong: "I'm just afraid, our family Xuan'er is a heartless person, and she is spoiled by our family." She's been so smooth in her life, and you're pretty much the same. The two children are childhood sweethearts, but how do they know what they like or dislike when they are so old? ”
Runrong understood, and no longer refuted more, but asked Qingrong rhetorically: "Then what do you say, they all came over so smoothly, what else can I do?" ”
Qingrong thought about it, couldn't help but smile mysteriously, and said, "Anyway, we can't let them be together smoothly." And I have to let the prince choose a concubine and choose a concubine, I also have to try to stop whether he is reliable or not, lest he emerge in two years, what should he do if he empathizes and doesn't fall in love? ”
Runrong didn't dare to pat his chest at the moment to guarantee, empathy and don't fall in love, who can guarantee it?
She asked Qingrong in a daze, "Then do you agree or disagree." ”
Qingrong said: "Wait until Zhige has passed the test." ”
From childhood to adulthood to old age, seeing that Qingrong has been a ghost until now, Runrong has nothing to object, only glanced at Qingrong, and said, "You just do it!" ”
After speaking, Qingrong happily withdrew from the palace.
As soon as he walked out of the door of the inner palace, Song Zhao was already standing in front of the carriage, and when he saw Qingrong coming quickly, he hurriedly went up to support Qingrong and said, "The imperial doctor has said that it is not easy for you to have a baby, and you are still running around and tossing." The queen didn't you off, did she? ”
Qingrong sneered, and helped Song Zhao's hand to get into the car, "I have always been the only one who makes her angry, I can tell you, don't go to the emperor twice in three days to sue the queen, it's useless." ”
Song Zhao also smiled, "I know that the emperor and queen have a good relationship, and I don't expect it to be useful, but it's better to say it than not to say it, and the queen will be restrained next time." ”
Song Zhao said, stretched out his arms and took Qingrong into his arms, and said, "Did he trouble you again today?" ”
Qingrong shook his head, closed his eyes and recuperated, suddenly remembered something, and asked Song Zhaodao: "Didn't you say that the emperor hasn't decided on the candidates to go to Liangguang for inspection?" ”
Song Zhao snorted.
Qingrong looked up at Song Zhao and said, "Then let's go to Liangguang." ”
Song Zhao was a little puzzled, "Right now, the key to choosing the crown princess, let's go to Liangguang?" What about Xuan'er's marriage to the prince? ”
Qingrong said unhappily: "The queen said that it was settled before, and now she wants to choose a concubine again." The crown prince has a noble status, but our daughters are also treasures, so we don't pick and choose for them. ”
Song Zhao knew that Qingrong had been sensitive and thoughtful during pregnancy, so he comforted: "The emperor and the queen are not picky, although the crown princess is predetermined, she always has to go through the process of choosing a concubine." ”
Qingrong immediately ordered Song Zhao: "I don't care, I will make the decision on Xuan'er's marriage, but I am not allowed to interfere." ”
Song Zhao immediately nodded obediently, "Okay, okay, it's all up to you." ”
Qingrong gave an order, and Song Zhao directly handed over the fold and asked for an order to go to Liangguang for inspection. said that it was an inspection, but it would take two or three years to go like this.
The emperor was not allowed at first, and summoned Song Zhao several times alone.
"Qingrong, I'm afraid my mind has been decided."
The emperor couldn't help but sneer at Song Zhao and said, "Look at your little bit of appearance, Qingrong is so scary?" ”
Song Zhao just laughed, thinking to himself, if the queen gives an order, won't you just listen to it?
As a result, less than half a day after the emperor laughed at Song Zhao, he was persuaded by the queen to allow the family to go to Liangguang to inspect after Qingrong gave birth.
At the beginning of April, Qingrong gave birth to a boy, her sixth child and fourth son with Song Zhao.
Song Zhao was not worried about his clean body, so he had to wait until September before setting off.
Several children were taken by Qingrong's side, and the Wei Mansion began to pack their luggage vigorously.
As soon as the prince heard that Wei Guogong was really going to Liangguang to inspect, and the luggage was packed, he was anxious, and the palace gate had been locked, so the prince hurried all the way to Taiji Palace to see his mother to discuss the law.
"Queen Mother, aren't you going to prepare to choose the crown princess, and the father really let Wei Guogong go?"
Runrong looked at his son's anxious appearance, and asked with a smile: "Why can't Wei Guogong go?" ”
The prince roared urgently: "Mrs. Wei Guo also took Xuan'er away!" ”
Runrong also sympathized with his son, thinking, silly boy, how easy is it to trick other people's daughters home.
On his face, he patted his son on the shoulder and said, "Emperor, you see that there are thousands of women in this world, and anyone can be the crown princess, not only Xuan'er of the Wei family." ”
The prince said aggrievedly: "However, I just want to be with Xuan'er." ”
Runrong said very reasonably: "That's because you're still young and don't understand what eternity is." ”
The prince said stubbornly: "I know that if the two love each other for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight." Mother, I'm not young anymore. ”
Runrong smiled embarrassedly, it's not too young, his father is at this age, and he has already married a concubine and had children. If she hadn't deliberately wanted her son to marry a few years late, she would have been a grandmother by this time.
On the other side of the Wei State Mansion, Qingrong arranged the mansion properly, and when he raised his eyes, he saw his daughter standing at the door, looking like she had something to say.
Qingrong smiled and beckoned to Sister Xuan.
Sister Xuan entered the door obediently, sat beside Qingrong, leaned her head on her mother's arms, and said, "Mother, do I really want to go to Liangguang with you?" ”
Qingrong nodded.
Sister Xuan asked again, "Mother, what do you think of the prince's choice of concubine?" ”
Qingrong said directly: "Xuan'er, you are still young. If it's yours, it's always yours, sooner or later. If it's not yours, even if you're ten or twenty years old, it's not yours. Do you understand? ”
Sister Xuan stopped talking, only buried her head on Qingrong's shoulder, which can be regarded as acquiescing to the current situation.
On the second day, Wei Guogong left the capital with his family.
The emperor and empress sent the crown prince to send it as a sign of solemnity.
The prince frequently glanced at Sister Xuan on the road.
After the car drove away, Song Zhao lifted the window curtain of the carriage to look, and saw that the prince was still standing at the gate of the city, and couldn't help but sigh: "The two of them have never been separated like this since they were children." ”
Qingrong naturally understood that he was talking about the prince and Sister Xuan.
Qingrong suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but ask Song Zhao, "When you left the capital to go to the Shen family in Jinan, didn't you be able to let go of Guan Heqiu in the capital?" ”
Song Zhao was a little weak-hearted, smiled awkwardly, and whispered, "How many years ago did this happen?" Talking about what I do, I said that Zhige grew up watching us, and Sister Hexuan is also a childhood sweetheart......"
"You and Guan Heqiu are also childhood sweethearts." Qingrong looked at Song Zhao with a smile.
Song Zhao couldn't help but step forward, pulled Qingrong into his arms, twisted her cheeks lightly, and said, "You've lived for half a lifetime, and you're getting more and more stingy." ”
Qingrong leaned on Song Zhao's arms like this, and said seriously: "I'm just a little scared." She didn't say much at all.
Song Zhao naturally understood that Guan Heqiu's matter had become a shadow in Qingrong's heart, and it was not unreasonable for her to be afraid.
Song Zhao felt layers of guilt in his heart, and silently took Qingrong's hand, "Wen said, I am me, and the prince is the prince." ”
Qingrong shook his head, "I didn't mean that, I'm afraid that they won't be able to live happily in this life." ”
Song Zhao couldn't help but smile, "You used to live more freely than anyone else, but now you are afraid of this and that." ”
"Because I get too much now, because our family lives happily, and because we are too happy, we will suffer from gains and losses."
Song Zhao was touched by Qingrong's words, and his heart was also warm, he held Qingrong's hand tightly and asked her, "I, have I given you happiness?" ”
Qingrong smiled, "Don't be complacent, the rest of your life is not over, who knows what will happen to you in the future?" ”
Song Zhao was stunned for a moment, but also laughed with Qingrong, and kissed Qingrong's forehead gently, "The rest of your life will only be happier." ”
Qingrong was a little stunned, and said worriedly: "But what about Sister Xuan's happiness?" ”
Song Zhao held Qingrong's hand, thought about this question seriously, and said softly: "That is Sister Xuan'er's own life." ”
Yes, Sister Xuan is hers, and she is not hers.
Anyway, it's not a trouble to be solved right now, let it be, let it be.
