Chapter Seventy-Five: Distraction
In the past few days, Wei Qingguan has always been cowardly, no matter what he does, he can't lift his spirits, and even the words between him and Dongfang Chen have become less pitiful. The literary network has you all the way
She loves to lie on the ** all day long, and everything in the harem is handed over to Concubine Ying's hands, like a cripple.
Concubine Xian's matter has passed, but she can't get over the things hidden in her heart, so she is so idle all day long, and she doesn't even like to tease Dongfang Yan, who was a month old at that time, she was already able to occasionally climb a short distance on the ground.
Every time he let the nurse hold it in his hand, he struggled to go to the ground and climbed around in front of Wei Qingguan to show his little skills.
A handsome little face looks more and more rounded, and the full miniature version of Dongfang Chen is just more cute than Dongfang Chen.
In the blink of an eye, the autumn mood is gradually rising, without the heat of July, and at night I feel that the cool breeze is a little infiltrating. Wei Qingguan was bored, so Banxia moved the reclining chair in the small courtyard behind, lying leisurely with Dongfang Yan in his cloak and hugging him, pointing to the twinkling stars in the sky, and teaching Dongfang Yan to sing a children's rhyme.
The former taught seriously, and while he was teaching, he was still shaking the recliner under him, while the latter was lying quietly in his mother's arms, and he fell asleep after a while, and there was even shiny saliva at the corner of his mouth. You can keep laughing at Banxia and the nurse who are watching from the side.
Wei Qingguan smacked the tight little buttocks wrapped in Dongfang Yan diapers, and then handed him over to the nurse and asked the nurse to take him back to his dormitory to sleep, so as not to let the cool breeze at night blow and get typhoid fever again, autumn and September, the most easy time to get sick.
After the nurse took over Dongfang Yan, Wei Qingguan lay down on the rocking chair again, and the old student was gently rocking the rocking chair, looking comfortable.
"The queen mother is so leisurely, she can't bear to watch the concubine busy alone, Cai Wei has been complaining to the concubine recently, saying that the concubine has no time to accompany her, you are good, you are still shaking your head here, you really want to be angry with the concubine."
When Wei Qingguan was happy for a while, a beautiful slightly angry figure at the door made her stop her movements.
Concubine Ying was dressed in a lake-blue hundred butterfly floral pattern makeup satin dress, standing under the honeysuckle flower stand, and said strangely. Wei Qingguan smiled slightly, a little scoundrel playful, "It is often said that those who can work harder, you work harder, I'm really sorry, I'm not without spirit here!" β
"Niangniang has the kung fu to tease the little prince, but she doesn't have the kung fu to help the concubine, you are the middle palace, what does it mean to always hand over the affairs of the inner palace to the concubine alone, you hurry up and cheer up, let the concubine free up her hands to accompany Cai Wei well, otherwise I can let Cai Wei come to you to cry the mountain gate, and then don't think that our mother and daughter will be skinny!"
It's rare that Concubine Ying also has such a joke, Wei Qingguan listened to the corner of his mouth hooked up a smile, and also asked curiously, "It's all night, why did you come here so well, what's the matter?" β
"The queen mother called the concubine to go, saying that there was only one in the palace, and asked the concubine to go to the internal affairs office to prepare the palace concubines' signs, and let the emperor go up to turn over the cards, and the concubines came back from the queen mother.
Concubine Min died, Concubine Xian was abolished, in addition to Wei Qingguan in this palace, now Concubine Ying is alone in the concubine position, and she is the assistant of the sixth palace, the Queen Mother can't find herself if she has something, so she naturally looks for Concubine Ying.
Those newly promoted palace concubines, except for Lu Furui, who gave death, have been in the palace for almost three months now, except for Dongfang Chen's big seal within three months, and the rest of the time has not been served in Jinfeng, Dongfang Chen has been staying here, and the show girls have lost their original meaning of spreading branches and leaves when they are selected to enter the palace, and the Queen Mother is in a hurry.
"I don't call the shots in this matter, and you don't interfere less, the Queen Mother wants the emperor to turn over the brand of the show girl, you let the Queen Mother go to the emperor in person with the brand, let's just watch it."
The Queen Mother was guarding Wei Chengcheng by her side, and she hurriedly asked Dongfang Chen to turn over the brand, which was nothing more than helping Wei Chengcheng pave the way. Wei Qingguan was a hundred angry with Wei Tingcheng, so he refused to help the Queen Mother do such a thankless job, what kind of person is Wei Tingcheng, he is a black-eyed chicken who wants to swallow himself alive, help her get to the top, raise tigers for trouble, and in the end harm herself, she is crazy.
Seeing her negative anger, Concubine Ying was also helpless, she didn't say much because she knew the reason, but fortunately, Banxia brought freshly brewed tea to resolve the embarrassment of silence.
Concubine Ying just took a sip of the cup, and outside Dongfang Chen took Li Mo and Su Hao into the Yongning Palace, Concubine Ying was naturally happy to see that it was Su Hao's face, and Su Hao also showed a rare smile to her, the deep love of the brother and sister from the heart could not be faked, Wei Qingguan was really envious.
"Why is my brother here? Are you on duty in the palace tonight? β
"Today, I accompanied the emperor to hunt, it was rare to hit a lot of game, I wanted to bring it into the palace to be cooked by the cook, and the emperor didn't know where to come from, and said that he wanted to go to Zhuangzi to barbecue and eat, and it was more profound, so he didn't accompany the emperor to come in and pick up the queen to go to Zhuangzi together, just to relax!"
Concubine Ying listened to what Su Hao said, and then noticed that the two of them were dressed in strong clothes at the moment.
Wei Qingguan knew that this was Dongfang Chen's trick to make her happy and please her. These days, Dongfang Chen has thought of many ways to make himself happy, but the more he does this, the more Wei Qingguan will only feel that he has a ghost in his heart! The psychology of contradiction and dilemma deepened in her heart, and she was more and more entangled in her unrest.
And Concubine Ying listened to it is indeed extremely envious, and can't help but think of the days in the army in the past, when she was stationed in the camp with her father, her favorite thing was to set up a fire in the sky, whether it was birds and animals, or vegetables and fruits, she always loved to bake them with a bamboo fork, and she always felt that these pure wild game melons and fruits were more fragrant than anything else.
Over the years since entering the palace, the chefs in the palace have not done game barbecue, but the artistic conception is different, and the taste is very different. Wei Qingguan looked at her envious eyes, took her hand and said with a smile, "Let Mama take care of Caiwei carefully, and we will go together in a while." β
Concubine Ying was happy, but her eyes still looked at Dongfang Chen and asked her opinion, after all, Dongfang Chen was going to wait for Wei Qingguan to go out, Dongfang Chen hadn't seen the smile on Wei Qingguan's face for a long time, and when she saw it, she naturally nodded busily. Concubine Ying was not pretentious, she sent the cloves around her back to pass the word, and then changed into a palace dress in the Yongning Palace, and changed into the coarse cloth mustard clothes worn by ordinary women, and like Wei Qingguan, she followed behind the two men and went outside the palace.
It is difficult for a woman who has entered the palace to leave the palace, especially the palace concubine, the palace concubine is not as good as the palace maid, and the palace maid can occasionally go out of the palace to run errands after getting the master's errand, or can still be released when she is old.
The palace concubine can't, she wants to leave the palace, unless the emperor has permission to return to Ning, such honors are rare, and there are only people like Wei Qingguan, the emperor personally coaxed her out of the palace, sometimes, she really envied Wei Qingguan, and she understood it once she died, and she was so comfortable.
Although it was night, there was a loneliness on the long street in the inner city, but Concubine Ying couldn't hide her joy, occasionally looking out, although she couldn't see anyone, her eyes were full of excitement, how long had she not seen the street shop in the capital, she almost forgot what the capital was like.
Close to the edge of the outer city, Su Hao has his own private house, the house is simple and not luxurious, like a small farm yard, occasionally he will come here to live for two days in his spare time, in the past, Concubine Ying liked her brother's small courtyard the most, with the atmosphere of a farmhouse courtyard, so that she was very familiar with here.
At this moment, in the open space of the courtyard of Sanjin, a fire was erected, and above the raging flame, a roe deer had already been slaughtered and roasted, and the fragrance was overflowing.
Wei Qingyun, the person sitting by the fire flipping his robe, was familiar with Shangguan Qing. Shangguan Qing, who has always been a weak scholar, is the same as Dongfang Chen and Su Hao today, and at the same time, he is dressed in a strong suit, and he has removed the strong fragrance of the books on his body, like the son of a military general, with more fierce spirit.
This man has different temperaments at different times, no wonder Dongfang Taoyao and Lin Muxue, who can be attracted, are so willing to treat him.
Although he doesn't often speak, like a stuffy gourd, he is victorious, with a handsome face of ancient carvings and paintings, if it weren't for Wei Qingguan's prejudice against him in his heart, he felt that he was very inactive, maybe Wei Qingguan would have another appreciation because of his face.
He, Dongfang Chen and Su Hao were best friends when they were teenagers, and it was not unusual for them to appear here, but the strange thing was that they had only arrived not long ago, and they remembered a menacing knock on the door outside, and the housekeeper in the courtyard had not had time to open the door, and Dongfang Taoyao, who was dressed in red outside, couldn't wait to break in directly.
When she entered the door, she looked around like a shrew, Wei Qingguan and Concubine Ying looked at each other, and knew why this Dongfang Taoyao was here, Wei Qingguan ignored her, sat down by the fire, and sent Shangguan Qing to cut off a piece of the roasted robe and meat without any scruples, and got up by himself.
Shangguan Qing cut the meat very obediently in a sullen voice, and sent it to her very respectfully in person, the angry Dongfang Taoyao clenched his teeth, since he came back to the present, Shangguan Qing has been living outside, no matter how he lowered his posture, he refused to look at himself, now it's good, Wei Qingguan will do whatever he wants, but he is also his own horse, why should Wei Qingguan send his own man like a subordinate.
Dongfang Taoyao gritted her teeth, looking at the people in front of her like watching a monkey show, hating, aggrieved but refusing to speak.
She heard that the emperor and Su Hao personally picked up people from the palace, in this small village, but the person didn't see who Dongfang Chen picked up, only said that he was going to the queen, and saw the figures of two women getting into the car, and his blood surged. I just thought that they had taken Lin Muxue out and had a tryst with Shangguan, so they rushed over.
"Let you castrate him without worry, and be a demon every day, you are not tired, and men are also tired." The two pieces of roe deer meat went down, Wei Qingguan clapped his hands with satisfaction, frowned, laughed, and then poked Shangguan Qing on the side, "No wonder you annoy her, I'm also annoyed by me."
Really, the Lin family girl's cultivation, knowledge, bearing, and trust in you are all real, although you can't imagine seeing you in the palace, but people pray for you in front of the Buddha every day, pray for you, you are also a blessing in the last life, and you can get such a person's heart. If I choose between these two people, I will also choose the girl of the Lin family, at least I can worry about it, and my life will be comfortable. β
The man next to him didn't speak, Dongfang Taoyao held back until now, and didn't dare to attack, and after listening to Wei Qingguan's cynicism, he couldn't help but say sharply, "Wei Qingguan, what are you talking nonsense, believe it or not, I tore your mouth, don't think that you have something great to protect you with the imperial brother protecting you, you me off, I will do the same to you!" β
"Give you a kitchen knife, you can't even kill a chicken, like a shrew all day long, believe it or not, I will return to the palace, give Lin Muxue the position of the county lord, and carry the leakage into Shangguan Mansion to Shangguan Qing as a flat wife, and the princess's mansion will be your cold palace in the future, and this palace will let you be lonely there for the rest of your life!"
Dongfang Taoyao's temper of the paper tiger Wei Qingguan was thorough, she didn't let it at all, grabbing the sore spot in Dongfang Taoyao's heart was to eliminate it, sure enough, Dongfang Taoyao couldn't stand the stimulation, tears fell down, and shouted.
"There are so many of you bullying me, don't think I don't know, that Lin Muxue has been eating and drinking well and living in the palace as a show girl, I know what your idea is, you just want to send her to Shangguan Qing's side, I tell you, you won't get your wish, unless I die, Shangguan Mansion, only I am allowed, and Shangguan Qing's wife is only allowed to be me!" β§βmioβ§βbi(.*)gβ§β.οΌ.
After crying as hard as he could, he left everyone behind, and left in such a hurry, Shangguan Qing didn't stop or chase, as if he was fine, and Dongfang Chen, as an elder brother, just kept his mouth shut.
Wei Qingguan also admired the temper of the eldest princess of Tongchang, and yelled at Dongfang Taoyao for a while, and his heart was inexplicably much smoother, the three men were just obediently silent for such a scene, and it was not strange that Wei Qingguan and Dongfang Taoyao had always met with the momentum of three gunpowder.
And Guan Qing on the fuse only obediently hid to the side, skewered the meat on the shelf little by little, and did not say a word.
"It's been a long time since I haven't seen my mother like a hen who cares for her cubs, it's really rare." After eating the roasted robe meat, Concubine Ying drank a mouthful of spirits, and said with a smile, she likes this feeling of drinking and eating meat, it has been a long time, she has been holding Concubine Ying's shelf, and she has not indulged like this for a long time.
Wei Qingguan pulled his lips and smiled slightly, but he didn't want Concubine Ying to dislike it, and said, "You look worse than crying, let's take it, who will show it bitterly, it wasn't very good just now, how can it be so melancholy and sentimental, it's not good." β
"You've been stimulated these days, but you can't always be so tired, now that person is still willing to spend this time coaxing you, if it's really like Dongfang Taoyao, don't wait for a long time to let those show girls below climb up, who cares about your life or death, you don't think about yourself now and think about the second prince, he doesn't have his father's pain**, how is his life in this palace?"
It's rare that Concubine Ying drank wine and Wei Qingguan was like a close friend in the boudoir, pulling around, Wei Qingguan seemed to have infected her, and accompanied her with a sip of wine, a mouthful of wine poured straight into her stomach, and she didn't wake up after a while......
