Qin Ying's eyes flashed with a hint of panic, the faint light gradually dimmed, she lowered her eyes and said softly: "I, I don't remember, it was quite chaotic at the time." ”

Fuyi reached out and touched her forehead: "It's not as hot as last night, the most uncomfortable thing right now is the pain of the wound, the doctor prescribed an analgesic decoction, the maids will serve you on time to drink, if there is any other discomfort, just tell them not to be polite." I won't say anything, if you want to treat this place as your own home, you can raise it well, go back to the Taiwei Mansion well, and there will be no misunderstanding between the two families. ”

Qin Ying promised: "I understand, I don't dare to cause trouble to the house again, I will have to go back sooner or later." ”

Fu Yi said: "You wish the third brother to say, Lord Taiwei is very worried about you, I heard that you found it, and his face has eased a little, and it is the first time he has seen Lord Taiwei so nervous." ”

Qin Ying smiled faintly: "My grandfather loves me, my father and mother's family love me, I know ......"

The girl was very wary of herself, knowing that she was not trusted, but this was human nature, so she didn't say anything in depth, folded the quilt for her, and said with a smile: "There are many affairs at home, I can't always accompany you, the maids are carefully selected, you just send, don't be polite, let them find me if there is something." ”

Fu Yi left, walked to the edge of the screen, looked back inadvertently, and saw Qin Ying raise his hands again, his eyes full of sadness, but he tried to endure tears.

Thinking of her whispered words, which were almost indecipherable, she said, afraid that she would not be able to write anymore.

Leaving Xiyuan, he met Pingli who was going to the school, he quickened his steps and asked, "How is she?" ”

"The fever subsided a little, I drank the porridge and took the medicine." Fu Yi said, "But her hands are burned like that, and if she is an ordinary person, she will cry and grab the ground in pain, and she will not say a word, and I can't bear to change the medicine for her." ”

Pingli made a straight face: "What a fool, just a few broken books, it's worth picking up the fire with your hands?" ”

But after finishing speaking, he felt that it was inappropriate, and said to Fuyi: "Sister-in-law, don't say this to her, it's time to be sad again." ”

Fu Yi smiled: "I know, hurry up and go to school, the eldest brother said that you are not allowed to be late." ”

Pingli looked unconvinced and helpless, but he didn't dare to delay the time, urging the little guy with the book and pen to hurry up and keep up, and soon walked away.

Back in Qingqiu Pavilion, Zhu Rong had already had breakfast and went to the court, Cuizhu said that the second lady was here, and she was holding a book of notes from the Taizong period to look at it attentively.

Fu Yi smiled and asked, "Do you see any doorways?" ”

Yun Yi said solemnly: "I have never heard of these things, I only know that during the reign of Taizu Taizong, I was invincible in expanding my territory, but I didn't expect that there were so many ups and downs in the court and the people, and there were also people who starved to death." ”

Fu Yi said: "I know many things for the first time, which shows the difficulty of governing the country." ”

Yun Zhi closed the book and asked, "Fuyi, are there still people in Daqi who can't eat enough?" ”

Fu Yi nodded: "Yes, there are all in the capital, and when the emperor sealed the city a while ago, when the price of rice skyrocketed, a lot of things happened." ”

Yunzhi said: "Why haven't I heard of it? ”

Fuyi smiled bitterly: "Natural disasters and man-made disasters are inevitable, not all are the fault of the court, you don't know, there are good people who don't know, as long as you should know, don't pretend to be deaf and dumb, this world will not be chaotic." ”

Yunzhi seemed to understand whether he understood or not, put down the book and said, "I don't need breakfast, let's eat together." ”

She didn't ask about Qin Ying, and she didn't mention it because she didn't know about it.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Yun Zhi found out that the little granddaughter of the Qin family had stayed at their house for one night, and even heard that she picked up the fire with her bare hands and ran away from home with an injury, so she sighed in front of her grandmother: "Grandma, it seems that I am well-behaved, right?" ”

The old lady said angrily: "People are a thousand times better than you, it's just a momentary urgency, when were you forced to do this, what is there in this family that is not as you wish?" ”

Yun Zhi smiled: "She can change it with me, I studied when I was a child, but I died of hardship, she likes to study so much, how good it is to change her." ”

Mama Rui came in with the tea fruit in her hand and asked, "Why didn't the second lady go to the sisters-in-law to pass the time, didn't she always say that the old lady was bored and panicked?" ”

Yun Zhi said lazily: "The eldest sister-in-law is busy non-stop, the second sister-in-law wants to recuperate in peace, the second brother won't let me get close, Fuyi has started to do learning, and I sit motionless in the study like a bell every day, my god ......"

The old lady said to her grandmother: "These days, she is tired of serving her mother, so it is good to tell her to rest, and only in my place will the people of Dongyuan dare not come to disturb her." ”

Yunzhi sat next to her grandmother and nestled in the old lady's arms and coquettishly: "Actually, it's boring to be idle, grandma, why do I have nothing to do, I don't have anything to do." ”

Mama Rui said: "Second Miss, this rich and idler's life, how many can be found in the world, are you still not satisfied?" ”

Yunzhi smiled helplessly and didn't answer.

In the evening of that day, Qin Hao followed Pingli to visit his sister in the Duke's Palace, and when the brother and sister saw each other, they didn't know what to say.

After being silent with each other for a long time, Qin Ying asked, "Brother, have all the maids in my house been punished?" ”

Qin Hao said: "The rules at home are like this, but my grandmother came forward to stop it, saying that she couldn't do any more evil, and she just beat a few boards." By the way, Zhu Pingli wants me to tell you, it wasn't him who reported you, so don't get me wrong. ”

Qin Ying bowed: "I know, it was the maid in my house who said that she leaked, but I don't blame them, I don't blame anyone." But...... Why didn't you go hunting that day? ”

Qin Hao said: "Pingli was entangled in order to take care of his younger brother and couldn't leave, but is it time to talk about this, when do you plan to go home?" Grandpa scolded my father and mother to the blood, and I didn't escape. ”

"I'm sorry."

"Brother doesn't blame you, I mean if you go back, grandpa will definitely blame you, and when the time comes, you can't stand it and run away from home again?"

Qin Ying looked at her brother in confusion, she didn't know, she didn't know if she could endure her grandfather's reproach, and this matter had come to this point, so far, even if the maid was punished and her father and mother were scolded, she didn't regret it.

But she didn't dare to say these words, and if she said them, she would have no conscience.

The sky was getting dark, Zhu Rong retreated from the hall, and the attendants diligently lit lanterns, and what he saw in his eyes were still some familiar faces.

The new monarch did not dismiss the original palace people in large numbers, except for the emperor's closest ones, Zhu Rong could see that the people in the palace almost did not move.

On the contrary, Zhu Rong had hidden worries in his heart, worried that among these people, some of them were still loyal to the old master.

Thinking about these things in his heart, he went out of the palace gate, and just happened to meet Qin Taiwei coming out of the Privy Council, he stopped to salute, Qin Taiwei walked a few steps, turned around and said, "You come, I have something to ask you." ”

"Yes." Zhu Rong followed, helped Captain Qin into the carriage, and himself followed into the carriage.

"You are now part of the Privy Council, and you are walking in front of the Temple?" Qin Taiwei asked, "In addition, you manufacture firearms in the Ministry of Industry?" ”

Zhu Rong said: "I am loved by the emperor, and I should do my best to do my duty." ”

Qin Taiwei snorted: "The young man has a bright future, what about your father, he is okay, I heard that he is sick?" ”

Zhu Rong said: "It is also comfortable to recuperate at home, thank you for remembering." ”

Taiwei Qin coughed dryly: "My family's unruly granddaughter, causing trouble to the Duke's Mansion, greet your old lady for me." ”

Zhu Rong thought for a while and said with a smile: "Grandmother said that the two families are friends in the world, and Sister Ying'er is like a granddaughter in her, and it is too late to love, so there is no trouble." ”

Qin Taiwei sneered: "We can't afford to climb high. ”

Zhu Rong carefully examined the expression in his eyes, and his heart turned, and he said: "Lord Taiwei, Sister Ying'er is young, after returning home this time, you will thank you for your favor, don't be harsh." ”

"Why do you need to meddle in our family's affairs?" Qin Taiwei said angrily, "The people of your Zhu family are too self-righteous, what about the relatives of the Manchu Emperor." ”

"What the juniors mean." Zhu Rong said straight to the point, "It's better to hire a reliable gentleman for Sister Ying'er to meet her wish to study." ”

Qin Taiwei touched his beard and glared at him: "What's the use of a woman studying, do you think that you married a talented girl from Jizhou, everyone envies it, who doesn't know that she is making a ...... in the Duke's Palace"

But Zhu Rong interrupted him and said calmly: "The current queen is the eldest sister of the younger generation, and she is also the enlightened gentleman, the eldest sister is well-read and well-read, in your opinion, the queen should not study?" ”

Qin Taiwei said angrily: "You are talking nonsense and distorting the old man's words. ”

Zhu Rong said: "My lord is angry, and said this, although the family tries their best to hide it, but there is never anything in the capital that can be hidden, you even know the trivialities between our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, not to mention that Sister Ying'er made a big fuss and ran away from home?" ”

Captain Qin ordered the carriage to stop, as if to chase away the passengers, but he was unwilling: "What do you want to say?" ”

Zhu Rong said sincerely: "My lord, the new monarch is on the throne, and all the civil and military officials are loyal to him, don't you want to confess your loyalty to the emperor and the queen?" ”

"How?" Captain Qin's eyes narrowed.

"There is one thing, if the adults come forward to take the lead, even if there will be some trouble in the future, the emperor and the queen will definitely look at you differently." Zhu Rong smiled and said, "If you can trust the juniors, you might as well give it a try?" ”

Qin Taiwei was puzzled for a while: "What's the matter?" ”

Zhu Rong said with a smile: "Send Sister Ying'er to study and let her go to school with other ladies of your mansion, what do you think?" ”

Qin Taiwei is an important minister of the imperial court, if even the former crown prince who has only been the emperor for half an hour is counted, he is a person who has served four generations of kings, how can he not know about the affairs of the Taizu Taizong period more than two hundred years ago.

"Chicken Si Chen, the country will not be a country." Qin Taiwei said, "Women should not study and understand etiquette, only virtuous and docile can the world be peaceful." ”

Zhu Rong smiled: "Before leaving the main hall, the emperor asked about last night, and I promised to give the emperor an answer tomorrow. ”

Qin Taiwei was furious: "Boy, you threaten me? ”

Zhu Rong smiled calmly: "I don't dare to be humble, it's just an adult, even if the women's studies during the Taizong period have not been passed down for a hundred years, no matter the royal family and the people, there is no criticism of this, let alone denial." You are so disrespectful to Taizong and Empress Taizong, if you don't tell the truth about your humble position, won't you be implicated yourself? ”
