Chapter 122: Princess Min's Thoughts
Going out from Xinghua Hall, you must pass through Qingqiu Pavilion, Citron saw the eldest lady walking out with people behind the door, and ran back to tell Fuyi and Yunzhi: "People who don't know, they still think that they are drinking wedding wine, and they are dressed so gorgeously and grandly." ”
Fuyi told her to be cautious in her words, and sent Scarlet Cuizhu to play, only in the house with Yunzhi, listening to her recall the past dealings with Min Mansion, but she only remembered that she couldn't get along with Min Chulin, but she couldn't find the shadow of Min Yanshi in her memory.
In this compartment, Wang's mother set the most gorgeous carriage in the family for her wife, and the ladies of the Zhongguo Mansion traveled, and there were people who opened the road before and after, and they attracted attention everywhere they went.
In this way, without waiting for the eldest lady to sit firmly in the palace, the news will spread.
When Princess Min heard what her subordinates said, she only smiled faintly, and she sat at the head of the front hall, waiting for the Yang family's visit, without any politeness from her relatives.
When the eldest lady came to the door, she was very unconvinced when she saw this posture, but she had to curtsia and salute.
"Madame, sit down." Princess Min waited for the Yang family to give a salute, so she was a little polite and said with a smile, "Is it that my post is too urgent and delays your business?" ”
The eldest lady responded with a smile: "Where is it, it is the honor of the concubine to invite the mother." ”
Princess Min asked: "It was originally a cook from Jizhou, and he made a table of local delicacies, and I want to invite my wife to taste it." Wait and wait, it's all this hour, the food is cold, and I thought you weren't coming. ”
Yang sneered in his heart, and had to get up and say: "Please forgive me, the children in the family have always been frail, and they have a lot of discomfort when they get up this morning, and the concubine is busy taking care of them, so she has been delayed for a while." ”
Princess Min said: "No, being a mother knows how hard it is, and it is difficult to be a big lady, and I wish my grandfather's children to be raised so well." ”
The eldest lady's smile was stiff, she could hear the meaning of these words, Min Cheng was sarcastic about her, and raised a room of children born to her aunt.
Princess Min didn't care about her concubine, and she didn't mean to look down on other little wives, but the woman in front of her was too hateful, so she couldn't help but say a few words of sarcasm.
Getting back to the point, after giving a cup of tea to the Yang family, Princess Min said: "In the past few days, there have been ups and downs in the city, and even the Prime Minister's Mansion has sent people to greet me. But seeing that there has been no movement in your mansion, I have to invite you to come and talk about this matter well. ”
The eldest lady bowed and said: "The concubine has told you that the princess is in weak health, and she has been recuperating in the suburbs for many years, she does not want to see people, she does not want to deal with human relations, and she is even more disgusted with the comfort and advice of others, and she is only waiting for the prince to return." The princess is the only daughter of the concubine, and the concubine cannot replace the pain of her daughter, but can only fulfill her heart. Niangniang and the county lord came to Beijing, and she should have immediately taken the princess to come to bow, but she was in better health a while ago, if she saw you and the county lord, it was inevitable to be sad, lest she hurt her body, so the concubine couldn't bear it, and asked Niangniang to bear with her. ”
Princess Min sighed softly: "I haven't seen that child for five years, and I can't bear to see him again. promised to send Han'er back in the hope that she could be properly taken care of in her mother's house, and gradually forgot everything about Kishu. At that time, I thought that sooner or later I would find the bones of father and son, and then I would play the Ming Shengsage and break the marriage contract with your mansion, so that Han'er could start over, who knew that the wait would be five years. ”
The eldest lady weighed the princess's words, and couldn't guess her thoughts for a while.
Princess Min said: "The emperor's meaning, wait another year, if there is no news of the father and son, we will build a tomb for them and invite the spiritual position into the temple, so that their souls will have nowhere to live." ”
Yang lowered her eyebrows, her heart turned and turned, how could she hear a little ambiguous, could it be that this Min Ji wanted to live in the capital for a long time, and from then on to be attached to the emperor and secretly get along?
Princess Min said: "It is rumored that Han'er is crazy, I don't believe it, your mansion is a big wind, three hundred years of family business, who is not jealous." I invite you to come today, I want to discuss, after next year, after the emperor builds a tomb for his younger brother and nephew into the temple, I want to return Han'er to freedom, if I can find a good husband for her in the future, I can have a lifelong trust, the prince and my son in heaven, can also rest assured. ”
The eldest lady raised her head in surprise and saw that the princess had tears in the corners of her eyes, but she was crying so reluctantly, she didn't look sad at all.
Princess Min asked with tears in her eyes: "What does Madame think?" ”
Although the Yang family is domineering and arrogant, he is by no means a stupid person, even if he is full of expectations for such a result, he does not dare to show joy, and only respectfully says: "In this matter, the concubine is not good to make decisions on her own, not to mention that the princess is still looking forward to the safe return of the prince." It's better to wait next year, after the emperor builds a tomb for the prince and the prince into the temple, the concubine will ask the princess again, and this matter will still have to be agreed between you and the princess. ”
Princess Min said: "Okay, I've waited for five years, and I'm not in a hurry for this year." ”
The eldest lady couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Min Cheng again, this was by no means Princess Min who suddenly came to the house that day, her body was completely different, as if after living in the capital for a while, she quickly polished the edges and corners of the past, as if she had finally accepted her fate.
No, no......
The eldest lady immediately denied her thoughts, Min Cheng must be testing her, her husband said very clearly that night, the mother and daughter went to Beijing, and they were not happy.
"Ma'am?" Princess Min smiled elegantly, "What's wrong with you?" ”
The eldest lady was busy perfunctory: "The concubine remembered the lively scenery when the princess got married, and she was full of sadness, for so many years, you have suffered." ”
Princess Min said: "It's hard for you to worry about it, but it's fine in the future, I'm back in the capital, away from the bitter cold land of Kishu, in the end I am a person born and raised in the capital, just come back." ”
The eldest lady couldn't help but ask, "Does Niangniang plan to return to Kishu again?" ”
Princess Min said: "My father is old, Jizhou is far away, and I can't catch up with anything." I got married in my early years, and I didn't serve under my knees for a day, and I always felt guilty in my heart, but now I have no worries in Kishu, and I have returned to the capital to serve my old father. ”
The more the eldest lady listened, the more strange she felt, but for most of the time after that, Min Cheng said these common words unhurriedly, and every sigh was full of her compromise and resignation, as if she was tired of being widowed for the past five years, and from then on she had to settle down in the capital and start again.
Leaving the palace and going home in the carriage, the eldest lady's mind was in a mess, and she could hardly remember what she had said in the palace.
She was ready to be questioned by Master Min Xingxing, so she dressed so ceremoniously and wanted to suppress her momentum.
As a result, she saw someone who was completely different from before, and all the words she said were not in her calculations, which made the eldest lady feel inexplicably empty and unreliable.
After getting off the carriage and entering the house, a soft sedan chair was prepared in the door to wait, but the eldest lady walked straight inside, walking in a hurry, while instructing Wang's mother: "Go to the palace to deliver news, I want to see the queen." ”
The people in the Qingming Pavilion saw that the eldest lady came back like a gust of wind, and left like a gust of wind, Fuyi and Yunzhi stood under the eaves, Yunzhi said: "I must be entering the palace to see the queen, don't look at the majesty and domineering of the eldest aunt at home, in fact, I have no idea, big and small things are waiting for the queen to nod, according to the mother's wishes." ”
As she spoke, the second lady, who came back from nowhere, came in with a happy face.
Fuyi stepped forward and saluted, and after Jiang Shi looked at it carefully, he said distressedly: "There is still a wound at the corner of the mouth, hey...... Poor child. ”
"I accidentally fell on it." Fu Yi smiled, "Auntie, don't listen to the legends of the little girls. ”
"I know, I understand." The second lady patted her hand, and when she saw Yunzhi standing obediently on the side, she said, "Since you are idle, follow me to see the old lady." ”
Yunzhi's heart suddenly lifted, and he looked at his mother hesitantly.
The second lady said to herself: "I have chosen a few girls, for your second brother to look at each other, first ask the old lady to look at it, and then go to the birthday eight characters." ”
When Yunzhi heard this, he was not only relieved for himself, but also worried about his second brother, it has only been peaceful for a few days, and the family will not be at peace, how can the second brother be obedient to his mother.
"Yun'er, let's go." The second lady called her daughter in front of the door, and smiled at Fuyi, "Have a good rest, if there is anything in the future, come to Dongyuan to find me, you can't be bullied anymore." ”
Fu Yi thanked him, and Yun Zhi's eyes met, and the second lady in front of the door urged again, and she hurriedly followed.
After sending the mother and daughter away, Fu Yi called the citron and asked her to go to the inner courtyard to send a message to Sister-in-law Li, and Sister-in-law Li naturally had a way to send someone to inform Zhu Rong.
Citron went on a trip, and came back to say that she heard the laughter of the second lady through the door, thinking that she had gained a lot from going out today, and she asked Fuyi: "Is there a happy event in this family?" ”
Fu Yi shook his head: "I'm afraid it's difficult, in this family, nothing is smooth, the rich and noble family, how can the life process be like this." ”
Citron asked: "Miss, I'm not kidding you, I'm telling the truth, if you really marry the third prince in the future, then you will become a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with the eldest lady, and this day is over?" ”
