Chapter 192: Aunt Qiu
Zhu'er's face suddenly became a little weird, and she said, "It must be prepared, the old general said that the things in the treasury are picked by the girl, that is, all of them are taken as a dowry, and 20,000 taels are prepared for the girl, and he buys what he likes, he doesn't know what his daughter's family likes, if the girl doesn't know, let the princess help." ”
said that it was ready, but in fact, it can also be said that there is no, who has nothing in the treasury of the house?
There is no housewife at home, it's really not good, Princess Liuhua would rather buy everything than pass her hand, so she said, "There are wedding dresses and phoenix crowns in the Pujia Pavilion, if you don't have time to embroider, go and pick a set." ”
Zhu'er lowered her head, and everyone in the Guan Mansion lowered her head, so don't you need to say, if you don't buy it, you won't be able to do it, there are no two embroidery girls in the house at all, and you have to wait for the girl to embroider her wedding dress and then get married, and the old generals are back.
Lin Moxuan, Leng Mu came back and told Zhiwan and Ye Guiyue about the matter, Zhiwan's eyes widened more and more when he heard it, and he couldn't cry or laugh, "It is difficult for a man to sneak into the South Garden, and it is much easier for a woman to want to enter the North Garden, and many ladies will not follow Guan Ling's example, right?" It's so noisy, and then the water side can't bear it. ”
Poria couldn't help but cover her mouth and smiled, "It's still that little guy who got the wrong person, and he didn't know how to ask more, he didn't know each other, and he even went to the same table." ”
Zhiwan said with a smile, "You can't blame the little guy, Guan Ling borrowed Rong Jingxuan's brand, which also has the priority of the back garden, at first glance, the brand is not much different, those who take that token have something to do with the water side, and they happen to walk together, the little guy mistakenly thinks that the two are inevitable together, Guan Ling can eat and drink at the same table with him, rest assured to go home with him, presumably even the king of the county also likes." ”
The queen mother's bedroom, Princess Liuhua borrowed the Gyeonggi guard in the afternoon, and the palace was about to curfew for dinner and rushed into the palace to face the saint, such a big thing could not be hidden from the queen mother's ears and eyes, and listened to the little father-in-law tell the emperor to marry Guan Ling and the king of Lianjun, and also rewarded the golden land. The Queen Mother's eyes lit up, "Is this serious?" ”
The little father-in-law nodded again and again, "This matter is true, if it weren't for the late night." Father-in-law Xu had to go to the treasury to choose a dowry in person. ”
The Queen Mother nodded, and the little father-in-law withdrew, and Mama helped the Queen Mother remove her makeup, and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, King Lianjun is still the Queen Mother's nephew and grandson, General Guan has a deep prestige in the army, if it weren't for Miss Guan's gentle temperament without the ladies of Kyoto, she wouldn't be able to be the princess, and General Guan didn't want her to be a concubine." Otherwise, it is a good family affair with the four princes. ”
In fact, the Queen Mother had been thinking about Guan Ling for a long time, but after General Guan came back, her eyes were directly focused on the King of Yuejun, and at the hibiscus banquet, Guan Ling danced in the city. The person who asked for relatives almost broke the threshold of the Guan Mansion, but the standard for General Guan to choose his grandson-in-law was too high, and ordinary people couldn't reach it, but he didn't expect it to be cheaper in the end, but Princess Lian is the niece of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother will definitely agree with this family affair!
General Guan Lao loves Guan Ling and can almost be compared to King Zhennan who loves Ye Guiyue, the Queen Mother said with a smile. "Ming'er, you go to the treasury to pick up some good things and send them to the palace of Lian Wang, even the palace has been lonely all these years, I'm afraid that I can't even do a decent family affair, and I can't wronged the only granddaughter of General Guan."
Mama was a little worried, "Even the princess has not been in the palace for so many years." She must resent the Queen Mother in her heart, is she willing to help the Queen Mother? ”
The Queen Mother's eyes froze, as the daughter of the Xu family, she couldn't help it!
The next day, Gonggong Xu went to the palace of Lian Wang to announce the decree, which caused a sensation in Kyoto. Nineteen years ago, the favored palace was lonely overnight, and no one cared about it for nineteen years, but I didn't expect to get the emperor's marriage.
Otherwise, how could the emperor give the granddaughter of General Guan to the king of Lianjun, which is tantamount to letting the king of Lianjun master the power of the army!
After Duke Xu finished announcing his decree, he took out a red satin from his arms and gave it to Princess Lian, and said with a smile, "Let's not talk about the past for the time being, King Lianjun is always the blood of the royal family, and you can't lose the face of the royal family." ”
Princess Lian held the red silk, her eyes were moist, and she thanked the emperor again and again, and Gonggong Xu helped her up, and went to help the king of Lian County.
At this time, there was a male duck's voice outside, and Father-in-law Xu frowned, the Queen Mother?
Gonggong Xu looked at Princess Lian out of the corner of his eye, only to see a touch of hatred flashing on her gentle and beautiful face, which was fleeting, but it made Gonggong Xu frightened, Princess Lian hated the Queen Mother?
Father-in-law Xu was going to leave, but he stayed inexplicably, and his father-in-law read out the decree of the Queen Mother, rewarded a bunch of good things, and said similar words to Father-in-law Xu, so he couldn't be cold, the things that the Queen Mother rewarded were to support the face of the princess, and the princess sneered when she heard it, "The queen mother's decree, I don't dare to accept it, even if the palace is lonely, the dowry for the princess of the county can be raised." ”
If it weren't for the Queen Mother's calculations, how could even the palace be lonely so far, how could she be miserable for half her life, when she needs her, she will be cared for in every way, she doesn't need her anymore, she is like a shoe, she is not what she calls and lingers!
Listening to the miserable life of the first half of his life, she does not allow him to be used for the rest of his life!
The father-in-law stood there with the queen mother's decree, this was the second time he announced the queen mother's decree, and someone did not accept it, and there were emperors present before he returned.
Gonggong Xu raised his eyebrows, looking at Princess Lian's eyes full of appreciation, the Queen Mother and the Emperor were almost only the layer of window paper that was not pierced, since the emperor wants to use Lian Wangfu, if Lian Wangfu and the Queen Mother come together, isn't this a slap in the face of the emperor?
What's more, King Lianjun and King Yuejun are brothers, and they play when they are young, and King Yuejun offends the Queen Mother, no one in Kyoto knows, no one knows, and the Queen Mother's move is really intriguing.
The father-in-law said unhappily, "The Queen Mother is also considerate of the difficulties of the Lian Palace, and even the princess doesn't know what to do, and it annoys the Queen Mother, do you suffer from the crime?" ”
King Lian looked at Princess Lian, surprised by her boldness, in his impression, the mother concubine has always been a crying woman, but he didn't expect to have such a hard time, so he said, "The queen mother's kindness, even the palace understands it." ”
The father-in-law's face changed, and he really thought that when he climbed up to the Guanfu, his wings would be hard, and he didn't even put the queen mother in his eyes, and his father-in-law Xu smiled and said, "Princess, since the queen mother is taking care of the royal face, you can accept it, and the emperor will be happy to do this family affair." ”
With the help of Father-in-law Xu, even the princess received the decree, and after the father-in-law left, the princess threw the queen mother's decree on the table, without any respect.
Instead, he looked at the red silk given by Gonggong Xu, and opened it carefully, and inside was a silver ticket of 10,000 taels, as well as a five-entry stake in the east of the city, and 600 acres of fertile land.
Even the princess's eyes were red at that time. Holding the red silk tightly, the emperor finally believed that the prince and the former queen were innocent, but what they did was too hidden, and there was no evidence to redress the grievances. The emperor knew in his heart, but he couldn't help them, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Gonggong Xu to give her these things like this.
King Lianjun walked to the side of the princess, and the princess held his hand tightly and cried, "The mother concubine has finally waited for this day, and the mother concubine is afraid to go with your father, for fear that you will be alone and ......." ”
King Lianjun looked at the princess and asked in a hoarse voice, "Mother." Do you know that your father was wronged, do you know something? ”
Mother Wan saw that the princess was shaken by the princess, and hurriedly drove the maid out of the house, and then said, "The prince of the county." The princess is suffering like this, if she knew anything, she would have said it a long time ago, don't force the princess. ”
Princess Lian waved her hand and cried, "The mother knows, the mother always knows." It's the queen mother, it's the queen, it's they who killed the first queen and your father, and the mother concubine wanted to go to the imperial garden with your father to blow the wind that day, it was the queen, she was the one who blocked me. Otherwise, your father and the emperor and the king of Zhennan are good brothers, once the first queen gives birth to the eldest prince, the emperor will definitely be the crown prince, they are for the throne. forced the first queen and your father to death, the eldest prince died after birth, they have harmed the palace like this, for many years we have ignored our mother and son, if it weren't for the king ......of Zhennan from time to time, surrounded everywhere, even the palace would definitely not be there, so many years, the mother concubine figured it out, the mother concubine is dead, and you don't want to be used by them again. ”
Mother Wan sighed and went out to guard, although the maids in the house are reliable, in fact, they are not afraid of the eyes and ears of the Queen Mother, the princess did not question the Queen Mother back then, but as a result, the Queen Mother and the Marquis of Qingyang no longer care about the princess, and there is no such daughter, even if there is a trace of kindness over the years, the princess will not come to this.
Even the king of the county listened to the princess, but when it came to it, he was only suspicious, and there was no substantial evidence, so he couldn't help but be disappointed, he also knew that the framing was a secret, otherwise how could the king of Zhennan not find out after so many years of investigation?
Out of the Lianwang Mansion, Gonggong Xu went to the Guanfu, at that time Guan Ling was still drunk, shaking his head, if it weren't for the help of Zhu'er and Amber, the connection to the Zhidu kneeling crooked, Gonggong Xu shook his head and chuckled, and did not blame, he still remembered that this little girl was born with great strength, Guan Lao General was manly, and she loved to drink, she was also a tiger girl, and the wine in Beiyuan was a special supply of wine in wine, and she had great stamina, and she didn't know how much she drank?
Gonggong Xu read out the holy decree, Guan Ling knelt there and yawned, he didn't listen to a word at all, even the holy decree was received by Zhu'er, and he looked at Gonggong Xu with a look of fear and timidity, seeing that he had no reproach, he was a little relieved, or the old general had the foresight to entrust the girl to Princess Liuhua to take care of, if it was someone else, I don't know what would happen today.
Lin Moxuan, Zhi Wan sat on the small couch, and on the small table beside him, there was a pot of verdant pine trees, which were pruning with interest.
Outside, there was a sound of footsteps.
Bai Xiang came in with a bright smile, blessed her body, covered her mouth and smiled, "Princess Jun, the emperor has given the marriage to the girl Guan and the king of Lianjun, and the lord of the Xinguo Mansion was really sent by the emperor to serve in the border pass." ”
The corners of Zhiwan's mouth arced slightly, and the bottom of her eyes was bright and clear, "Leng Mu hasn't come back yet?" ”
Bai Xiang shook her head, "Not yet." ”
Zhiwan turned the potted plant, cut off two more cumbersome branches, and said with a smile, "Tell the porter, and Aunt Qiu of the Xinguo Mansion will come to the Guogong Mansion in a while, and there is no need to stop it." ”
The bead curtain shook slightly, Yao's mother stepped in, and saw that her face was a little strange, as if she was a little happy, and a little unhappy, Poria hurriedly greeted her, and said curiously, "Mother, why did you come back so quickly today?" ”
Yao's mother glared at Poria and sighed, "After going out for two months, the small courtyard has changed a lot, and Zhao He is going to get married." ”
Poria suddenly widened her eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Mother, this is a happy event, what are you doing with a sad face, who will Zhao He marry as a daughter-in-law?" ”
Yao's mother didn't almost get angry, Zhao He was the son-in-law candidate in his photo, and now that her son-in-law has flew, it's strange that she can be happy, but her daughter has no heart and lungs, "It's the youngest daughter of Xiaoyuan Liu's mother." ”
"It's Chunyan, she is diligent in her hands and feet, and she speaks quickly, but she is a little ugly ......."
Before he finished speaking, he was taken aback, and Poria hurriedly closed her mouth, and listened to Zhao's mother aggrievedly, "After the old man Hua went to the small courtyard." Zhao He often went to help him, and the old man accepted him as an apprentice, and by the way, he accepted Chunyan, and now the two of them are responsible for taking care of Nanyuan's flowers. One is responsible for taking care of Beiyuan, they are all diligent people, and the wedding date is set, just on the eighteenth of next month. ”
Quickly, Poria sighed with emotion, and was about to speak, when she heard Yao's mother say happily, "In addition to the pair of Zhao He and Chunyan, Zhao Silian and the Wu family boys have also become." ”
Poria opened her mouth wide. "Why did Sister Si Lian go with him? It's only been two months since I've been out, so it's changed a lot, right? ”
Yao's mother nodded and sighed, "It's a big change, Miss Zhao opened a pastry shop in Kyoto, also called a delicious pastry shop." The pastries that the princess taught her to make, the taste is naturally not bad, many people in Kyoto like it, and Huanfu has not gone to buy it. ”
Poria pouted, she still remembers being in the Zhao family. Zhao Silian felt that she had no drama with Wu Cheng, and she was sad for a while, but she didn't expect it to be true, but, "Will her mother agree?" Wu Chengke is a servant for others. ”
Yao's mother smiled, "Although Young Master Huan's leg was cured by the princess of the county. But Wu Cheng's merits can't be erased, Mrs. Huan is kind-hearted and rewarded Wu Cheng with two hundred taels of silver, so he used the money as a dowry, and Zhao's sister-in-law loves money. In addition, Zhao Silian herself agreed, so she reluctantly agreed. ”
Poria was a little incredulous, "Isn't her mother bent on Zhao Siming being an official, or being an official's wife, when the time comes, Sister Silian will be Miss Guan, she is really willing to be a little girl?" ”
Zhiwan didn't believe that in just a few months, Liu's was enlightened, and now the delicious grocery store has a good income, although two hundred taels is not a small amount, but in her heart, Zhao Silian's value is far from so much, so she listened to Yao's mother, "Young Master Huan's leg is half better now, no one can support him, he can walk a few steps, he is a general, no one can train, this doesn't train Wu Cheng as a soldier, he will go to the battlefield in the future, bring Wu Cheng with him, maybe he can still make a contribution, not to be an official lady, and to be an official wife in the future, besides, The power of Huanfu is not small, Zhao Siming wants to be admitted to the Jinshi, and she also has a way to go in the imperial court, she also knows that she offended the princess of the county to death, and the road of the princess of the county may not be smooth, and the daughter is always not as important as the son. ”
"I'll just say, how can she be so easy to talk to," Ling said with a smile, although Liu's intentions are not good, but they have finally fulfilled a pair of lovers, but I don't know where the shop is open, go back and see her.
Zhiwan chuckled, took tea and said, "Go back and wait for them to get married, fifty taels of silver per person, and then send a set of headdresses." ”
Yao's mother saw that Poria was happy like that, and her heart was really not good, her daughter's family affairs had not yet been settled, the little housekeeper in the palace, Yao's mother had not thought about it, she could only aim at the guards around the prince of the county, Leng Mu and Leng Shi had been engaged, only Leng Feng and Leng Xun, and the rest of the secret guards She wanted to take a look, but she couldn't see it, and the secret guard was a knife on her neck, in case she went to run an errand one day, and accidentally lost her life, her daughter would become a widow, as soon as she thought of these, Yao's mother was firm, if there was another choice, Definitely not choose the Dark Guard.
It's a pity, when the princess of the county got married, the Hou Mansion didn't accompany the two Zhuangzi shops, otherwise you can pick a kid to marry, cultivate a good student, and be a steward in the future, as long as you don't betray the princess of the county in this life, it will be complete, but it's a pity, the shop doesn't have it, Zhuangzi doesn't, where can she pick a son-in-law?
Yao's mother is worried, not only is she worried about Poria, but also Bai Shao, she was also raised as a daughter, although she has a mother in the Hou Mansion, but the deed of sale is in the hands of the princess of the county, even her own mother can't be her master, it's not her idea?
Yao's mother glanced at Bai Shao, thinking about calling her over for a while, and asked if she had a crush.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard an exclamation, "Ah! ”
Yao's mother was startled, Poria and Bai Shao glanced at each other, it was the cry of Marigold, well, what did she scream?
Hurriedly opened the curtain and went out, listening to the sound as if it was coming from the study, and hurriedly rushed to the study.
There was a lot of water at the door, and the copper basin was broken, and when I looked up, I saw Marigold talking, "Brother Leng Shi, what's wrong with you?" ”
At this moment, the cold stone, all over his body, dripping down, the injury was not light, and the cypress and bamboo incense that came in behind him were almost fainted, or Bai Shao calmed down, "Go and call the princess of the county, and bring the medicine box with you." ”
Zhiwan heard the news of Leng Shi's injury, and was stunned for a while, and was busy helping him treat his wounds, there were seven or eight wounds on his body, two of which were a little deeper, and his life was confessed.
So they put the cold stone in the study. Send a few more maids down, this is Leng Shi's request, and when the maids are gone, Leng Shi said intermittently. "Something is wrong."
Of course Zhiwan knew that something was wrong, if it weren't for the big thing, he would have been injured like this, "Did the old lady send a secret guard to assassinate Aunt Qiu?" ”
Leng Shi nodded, the princess of the county has always been smart, there are some things that she can understand without him saying them, and after a long pause, Leng Shi opened his mouth and said, "Aunt Qiu holds the old lady's secret in her hand." It seems to be related to the prince and the first queen. ”
Zhiwan paused, her brows furrowed, and the old lady said that Aunt Qiu and the prince were life-saving, although she couldn't be sure if it was true, but she could be sure. This is not a secret in the hands of Aunt Qiu, and she can come to the door several times to blackmail the old lady, this secret is definitely enough, at least it makes the old lady jealous, she raised her eyebrows at night, and boldly guessed, "Could it be related to the prince's life experience?" ”
Leng Shi nodded his head. "The prince and the former queen may be the sons of the Duke of Xinguo."
If he hadn't heard such a shocking secret, he wouldn't have leaked his whereabouts, so that the secret guards sent by the old lady would find out, and he would almost not be able to come back.
"The prince was also frivolous when he was young, and he once fainted the prince of Xinguo ......."
“……。”
"The prince of the county once teased the two girls from the Xinguo Mansion, and the Xinguo Duke forced marriage. ...... fell ill by qi. ”
“……。”
If this is really the son of the prince of Xinguo, how can the prince still gain a foothold in Kyoto, the son is disobedient to his father, and he almost makes his father angry to death!
Leng Shi never suspected that this matter was false, if it was not true. The old lady is such a person, how can she be willing to be coerced? Even if someone was sent to assassinate her, she would only kill Aunt Qiu's mother, and ask Aunt Qiu if anyone else knew about it.
Zhiwan's heart was also turbulent, and she had suspected that the old lady's assassination of her son and grandson was weird, even under the banner of temptation, no one was serious, so it turned out to be like this!
Seeing that Zhiwan didn't speak, Leng Shi beat a drum in his heart, and he didn't care about his injuries, and asked, "Princess Jun, what should I do about this?" ”
Zhiwan gave Leng Shi a reassuring look, and said, "You can recuperate with peace of mind, I'll tell you about this matter later, even if the prince is not born to the old lady, the prince is also the prince of the Xinguo Mansion, and the title of the king of Zhennan was earned back by the prince himself, and no one dares to say anything." ”
Leng Shi nodded, he was completely relieved of this, but he never dreamed that things would evolve into the way they are now, the prince and the first queen were not born to the old lady, no wonder the old lady had many requirements for the prince and treated the fourth lord leniently, but the old lady loved the prince and the former queen in every way, without the careful teaching of the old lady, the prince would not have achieved today!
How does this make the prince face the prince of Xinguo, and how to face the old lady who has passed away?
If you let the Duke of Xinguo know, would you like to let the prince recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors? should be willing, the son is so good, and he has military power, but his biological father is not as big as his adoptive father...... The cold stone is a mess now.
Outside, Poria knocked on the door and said, "Princess Jun, Aunt Qiu of the Xinguo Mansion is really here." ”
Zhiwan raised her eyebrows and stepped out of the door, but she wondered in her heart, Leng Shi and the secret guards sent by the old lady fought in Aunt Qiu's house, and two secret guards died, such a big thing happened, Aunt Qiu was not frightened, and she had the courage to go out, it was really extraordinary!
How does Zhiwan think that she intends to make things bigger, does she want the prince to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and the Xinguo Mansion will become the Zhennan Palace?
But for Aunt Qiu, there is no benefit, dare to calculate the housemother, resulting in the bloodline being left behind, ten lives are not enough for her to lose, it is impossible for Xinguo Gong to forgive her, she came to the door several times, and no one in Xinguo's Mansion noticed something?
It seems that something must have happened within the Xinguo Mansion, and she had to force Aunt Qiu to come and use the old lady's hand to do things, if the old lady was coerced by her, it would naturally be good, if she was not coerced, and poked things out, at most everyone would die together?
This time, Zhiwan didn't send a secret guard, but just found a maid to inquire, and she took Poria out of the courtyard, she was going to meet this Qiu Aunt to see what her purpose was.
