Chapter 31 Xiao Gu Rabbit's Three Dynasty Rites
"My lord wants to accept you as a righteous daughter." Rumo didn't beat around the bush, "First, I want to thank you for saving your life, and secondly, I also want you to come to me often to sit and accompany me." ”
When Tiyun heard this, he was a little surprised at first, and then he understood it.
Rumo knew that although she looked like an ignorant girl, she had a seven-clever heart in her heart, and she didn't need to say anything about it, Tiyun could already figure it out.
"This is not only what I mean and the lord, but also what the prince means......" Rumo took her hand and looked at her earnestly, "You probably know what the prince means, he wants to give you an identity, so that you can stay in Kyoto justifiably and not be bullied by others, if you are ...... in the future." and save you from being criticized. ”
If you talk about marriage in the future, you will not be protected from other people's gossip. Ordinary people pay attention to the right family when marrying, not to mention the heavenly family.
Tiyun kept her mouth shut and didn't speak, she knew there was another layer of meaning in it.
If she agreed, it meant that she was sure that she would stay by Chimist's side and never leave him again. It was too sudden, and she needed to think about it.
"It's not that you agree immediately, you go back and think about it first, and then talk about it after you think about it." Rumo was sympathetic to Tiyun, and told her some trivial things, and when she saw that she was absent-minded, she didn't leave her for lunch, and asked Liangchen and Zuidi to accompany her back.
Drunk drops listened to it in her ears, and she speculated deeply in her heart, but she didn't have a clue, although she felt that there were other meanings in what Rumo said, but she couldn't figure it out.
Qianwu was waiting for Tiyun to come back in the study, and at this time Zhuang Chun came in, "Lord Wang, someone is coming over there." ”
Ding Yuan saluted Qianwu and reported the recent news to him.
"Lu Yu is missing?" Qianwu frowned, "He has been lurking in Anhe Mansion for many years, this matter is really strange, you must investigate it carefully." ”
"Yes, but Lu Yu broke it very cleanly and didn't implicate other lines." Ding Yuan said, "Recently, our people have stopped two groups of killers on the other side of Six-foot Alley, and I don't think they will give up." It's not a long-term solution to go on like this, and the prince has to think of a way. ”
"Don't get in the way, Yu Yu has already reported the news, he has already caught two important leaders in the case of illegal salt earlier, and he will be escorted to Beijing in the next few days, and after the Criminal Department takes over, the prince will soon be busy...... "Qianwu raised his phoenix eyes, "How is the news over there in Jiangnan?" ”
"We have made new progress in the last time, although the wife of the second child is no longer alive, but they recently moved and found the bag of things in the old things. After many years, it is estimated that it has deteriorated due to moisture. Lord, do you want to send it to Kyoto for you to check? Ding Yuan said respectfully.
"Order them to send it, so that when the time comes, it will be checked." Thousand Mist commanded.
"Yes." Ding Yuan took the order and went out.
After a few more moments, Tiyun came in with preserved fruit pastries.
"I'm back...... Tiyun smiled brightly, moved to his side, and knelt down beside him, "I still have something to tell you today." ”
Qianwu held her cheeks and tilted her head and stared at her all the time, how to look at her and think that she was very moving today.
She swept her eyebrows lightly on her face, pounced on a thin layer of fat powder, and left a little pastry powder at the tip of her nose and mouth, and when she smiled, her eyes and teeth were bright, revealing two white tiger teeth, which were very cute.
"Prime Minister Wang's wife gave birth to a daughter last night, and today I was asked to give her a name......" As he spoke, Ti Yun put a plum into his mouth, "Ouch, it's so sour......"
"I named her Wang Tingying, and her name was Gu Rabbit, what do you think?" Tiyun caught a glimpse of Qianwu staring at him, "Why are you staring at me?" What do I ask you...... Are you fascinated by my beauty? Heck, I know I'm naturally beautiful, but I have to be low-key......"
Seeing that she was talking about him left and right, Qianwu just didn't get to the point, smiled and stood up and pinched her face.
"Gu Rabbit is full, and Ting Ying is falling one after another." Chirigo poured her a cup of tea, "Very good." ”
"Her daughter is so cute, she can't stop laughing when she sees me. Now that Madame has given birth to a child, you have to pay attention to it during confinement......" Tiyun gushed endlessly, and Qianwu listened quietly.
Tiyun wanted to spit out the plum core from time to time, and was about to reach out to get the small porcelain plate on Qianwu's side, but Qianwu naturally stretched out his hand to pick it up, and Tiyun didn't feel that there was him, so he spit it out and picked up a new one and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Extraction." Thousand Mist interrupted her.
"Huh?" Tiyun was interrupted and looked at him earnestly.
"What Mrs. Prime Minister told you today, are you embarrassed? I didn't want to do this, but I didn't want you to be bullied by others when I wasn't there, and I was afraid of ......" Qianwu lowered her eyes and pretended to be pitiful, "I'm afraid that someone will come and pick you up like last time." ”
Anyone else? Last time, it was her master, her aunt, and her brother and sister who came to pick her up......
Tiyun was slandering in his heart, thinking about how to express himself. With a casual glance, I caught a glimpse of the wet plum kernel in the palm of Qianmist's hand. He must have been thinking about it all the time, and had been speculating about what was going on in her heart, so he forgot to put it in the porcelain plate on the side.
She suddenly remembered the first few times she had eaten, Qianwu personally gave her vegetables, and sometimes everyone chatted excitedly, she danced with her hands, and he used his hands to catch the bones and fish bones she spit out.
At that time, I was so shocked that I couldn't close my mouth, "Hey Qianwu, wake up, you are the king of the south, and you are faint, and you are faint...... You weren't like that before. ”
"Well, do you have an opinion?" Chiki looked disdainful.
She didn't know what they were talking about at the time, she didn't pay attention at all, and now that she thinks about it...... Tiyun fell into a deep thought.
"Fox." Tiyun suddenly spoke, "If I agree, won't I be able to go back to the villa often in the future?" It is better to distinguish between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes, if you are suspected of connecting the forces of the rivers and lakes, the political situation will become very complicated at that time. ”
Qianwu pulled her over and smiled in her arms, "You want to agree, don't you?" ”
Tiyun didn't understand what he was focusing on, and looked up at him and thought he was a little strange.
"Just tell me, do you want to say yes? Do you want to stay with me and stay with me? Qianwu cupped her face, and there was a rolling wave in her eyes.
"Well, of course." Tiyun nodded, "But ......"
"No, but, no." Chimist hugged her gently, "You just say you want to, and everything else doesn't matter." ”
Tiyun didn't know why, but he was so moved that he wanted to cry, and said in a muffled voice, "Why are you so good to me, no one has ever been so good to me......"
"Little conscienceless, what do you say I'm for?" Qianwu pinched her face and said with a smile, "In the future, with me and Prime Minister Wang Cheng, you can walk sideways in Kyoto." ”
I'm not a crab. Tiyun thought silently in his heart.
"So...... The last time you took me to the temple, was it so that I could get to know the prime minister and his wife? Tyranny suddenly thought of something, withdrew from his arms and asked, "For today." ”
"At that time, I really wanted to take you out for a walk, and let you meet by the way. I didn't expect that to happen again in the temple. Qianwu didn't expect that Tiyun's mind was so alert and delicate, and he was connected to the previous thing from this incident, and he suddenly felt a little empty in his heart.
"You promise me that you will tell me what arrangements you have next time, I will not hide it from you, and you will not hide it from me." Tiyun said, "You can refuse to answer, but don't lie. ”
"Okay." Chiki laughed.
After another two days, Tiyun also figured out what this "Three Pilgrimage Ceremony" is, which is the "Three Rites of Baptism" for the child to be held at the grandmother's house when the baby is born three days later, that is, to hold a bathing ceremony for the child. At that time, relatives and friends will go to the house to wish the child good luck, hoping for peace and auspiciousness in this life.
In these two days, Liangchen Meijing went to some things for the children, and prepared the silver coins and happy fruits for washing. Tiyun cut a new red dress, because this is not only the child's three court gifts, but also her recognition ceremony.
On this day, Tiyun asked Zuidi to help him personally send a letter to Bie Xiao and Qinghe, so Zuidi went out early in the morning. Qianwu and Tiyun had eaten lunch, the girls were ready, and a few people got into the carriage and went straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Prime Minister Wang Cheng is simple and sincere, there are not many friends in the DPRK and China, and he is getting older, so there are indeed few elders and relatives and friends in the family, and some distant relatives can't come, so he sent something from afar, saying that he must come to drink wine when the child is full moon.
Qianwu led Tiyun into the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Tiyun went to see Wang Pu first, and then went to see Rumo. Rumo is still in confinement, and it is not appropriate to stay outdoors for a long time, so it only appears for a while in the baptism of the child.
Wang Pu and Rumo held the child in the small bathtub, and the slaves and maids on the side carried the plates, which contained the happy fruits brought by relatives and friends, as well as some silver coins, gold and silver ornaments prepared by the family.
In this group of people, Tiyun noticed a young man wearing a blue-gray robe, this young man wore a white jade crown on his head, dressed plainly and simply, but he was very elegant and handsome, and he looked like a scholarly son. The most important thing is that after Wang Pu took the child out of the bathtub, he seemed to express his gratitude to all the guests present as the main family.
Tiyun saw that his eyebrows were sparse and wide, but he was an unusual person. Qianwu on the side said with a smile, "This is the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the son of the Prime Minister's brother, called Wang Duzhi, that is, your eldest brother." ”
"He is a central counselor in the court, and he really has his own style. He has never been impartial in doing things, and he can be alone in the chaos. His words were quite sharp, and not only the crown prince and me, but also many ministers in the court were a little afraid of him. Qianwu looked at Wang Duzhi, who was sitting in the second place, "I don't have a deep friendship with him, but I seem to know him when I do." But I didn't expect that he was very good to his family. ”
Ti Yun glanced at Wang Du again, only to feel that he was very kind, turned his head sideways and whispered to Qianwu, "I think he is a very gentle person, and he will definitely not be difficult to get along with." ”
