Chapter 54: Wishing and Violating Body
Is Xiang Yao a good match?
If there is no baby, he should also count.
In Pei Yao's heart, she is biased towards infants. However, if it was just her own bias, but when she saw it today, it also made her see the bias in Qingtan's heart.
"The second son has filial piety on his body, because although this marriage was given, the marriage date was set for three years later." Yu Zhi said: "I heard that after receiving the order, the county prince was not happy at all, and called the second son to the Lixing Building with a calm face, and he never came out!" ”
Xiang Tao's anger was inevitable, but Pei Yaowei couldn't guess whether the prince of Jiyang County was angry about the unseemly marriage or the identity of his future daughter-in-law.
She was distraught, but fortunately, it didn't take long for the baby to come.
Pei Yao saw him like a savior, and hurriedly asked him if something went wrong when Xiangyao sent Qingtan back to the palace.
Xiangying grabbed Concubine De and gave her the handle of the two of them privately, and told her the beginning and end of the trouble.
"Jia's peep curtain Han Peng Shao......" was silent for a long time, she sighed lowly, snorted, and shook off a chess piece in her hand, "Heh, the emperor has the intention to be Jia Chong, but he pities Qingtan......"
The heart belongs, but it is wrong.
Thinking like this, she couldn't help but look at Xiang Ying regretfully.
knew that it was not suitable, but she still couldn't help asking: "Is there still room for turning around in this matter?" ”
Xiangying didn't rush to answer her words, after thinking about it, he asked rhetorically: "Are you dissatisfied with the second brother?" ”
Pei Yao said in her heart, it's not that I'm not satisfied with him, but my niece is more satisfied with you.
But she didn't dare to say this at this time.
If Qingtan and Xiangyao's marriage cannot be changed, then it would be inappropriate for her to say such things in front of Xiangying.
After a while, she sighed, "It's not that I'm dissatisfied with him, it's just ...... This marriage has always been for the sake of Zhou Quanqing's reputation, but it is like chasing ducks to the shelves, and I feel a little awkward in my heart. After a pause, she asked, "What is Xiang Yao's attitude towards this marriage?" ”
He shook his head and said that he hadn't had a chance to talk about it with his second brother for a while.
"You don't have to worry too much." After thinking for a moment, he comforted: "With the character of the second brother, he will definitely treat the princess well." ”
Her eyes were complicated, and she sighed in her heart that it was pity.
Sometimes, as long as people are wrong, all kindness is also harshness.
On the second day, Pei Yaowei went to Nanyuan early in the morning to ask for peace, and talked about it with Mrs. Huan, so she wanted to probe from her to see Xiang Tao's attitude towards this matter.
"The emperor's marriage was given in such a hurry, I heard that it was a private relationship with Princess Yecheng, and it was held by Concubine De, and the emperor had to do it as a last resort for the sake of good face." Mrs. Huan sighed, and continued, "Don't you know your father's temper? He wanted to care about fame, but now his son has committed such a mistake in the filial piety period, so how can he not be angry? No, yesterday he reprimanded him severely, and he didn't sleep for half a night when he came back, and between this father and son, I can't say that I have to have a dislike again......"
"Father...... You won't blame the princess for this, right? ”
Mrs. Huan knew that she had a very good personal relationship with the princess, and raised her eyebrows and said: "You can rest assured, not to mention that the princess is a princess after all, the distinction between the monarch and the minister is in front, and the county prince does not dare to slack off." That's what happened, I said it all, it was he who wanted the codex, the princess was kind enough to fulfill him, but he was involved, and now the county prince is in his heart, only for the princess of karma, there will be no resentment and anger! ”
It turns out that Xiang Yao said this with Xiang Tao...... Pei Yaowei nodded slowly, and her heart was a little calmer.
"Lu'er,"
After a while, Mrs. Huan saw that she was distracted, and suddenly called her carefully. Pei Yao replied and hurriedly asked what was the matter.
Mrs. Huan pondered again and again, and asked cautiously, "...... the new gardener in your yard?"
Pei Yao's heart moved.
"You tell you the truth, how did you and him meet?"
Ever since she learned of Chao Rong's identity, she had always had doubts about his acquaintance with Xiang Rong. I'm afraid that the purpose of the nest to melt into the Prime Minister's Mansion is not simple, and I am even more afraid that he will tell Xiangyu about it.
"How did you meet?" Pei Yao pretended to be puzzled, and told her the acquaintance scene outside Zhaoye Temple that day, "My mother asked like this, is there anything wrong with this old gardener?" ”
A simple person like Mrs. Huan is the most easy to deceive, Pei Yaowei acted casually, and she believed nine points, although she didn't dare to be completely relieved in her heart, she was also very relieved.
"There's nothing wrong with that," Mrs. Huan said, "just thinking that you're about to get married, so naturally you can't take him with you." This gardener's skills are good, so let him come to Nanyuan to do things in the future, how about it? ”
She smiled, "It's good if my mother likes it." ”
Pei Yaowei was worried about Pei Qingtan's marriage, and she couldn't sleep well for a few days, but she hated that she was the person to be married, and she couldn't even go into the palace to see her.
In the blink of an eye, it was March 28.
"Girl, tomorrow is a good day for the wedding! Some of them are busy today! Be careful, don't get tired! ”
When she got up in the morning, Yu Zhi was as excited as if she had been beaten with chicken blood. provoked the little maid to joke with her in and out: "Sister Yuzhi, it's the girl who marries, and it's not you who marry, what are you so excited about!" ”
"Stinky girl, what do you know!" Yu Zhi snorted, turned around and served the master to dress, while lowering her eyebrows and moving: "The girl has suffered a lot in and out of the house over the years, and now she has finally come out and is about to get married, but it is not a new one-yuan change!" I hope that His Royal Highness the King of Chu will treat my girl well, and the slave and maid are willing to die! ”
Yu Xu pulled her from the side, "Okay, there is no taboo like this!" ”
Yu Zhi reacted, hurriedly snorted twice, and said a lot of auspicious words to please.
After breakfast, Juan Niang personally came over to spread the word and invited the four girls to the front hall, saying that someone from the palace had sent a reward.
The rewards of Heshou Palace and Xiancui Palace have arrived a few days ago. It's all this day, and there are still people in the palace to give rewards? Pei Yaowei muttered a little in her heart, and followed Juan Niang to the front hall, but saw that the person who came was Feng Qingkang, the chief eunuch in the Mindai Palace.
When they arrived in the hall, Pei Yaowei and Feng Qingkang gave a salute, and then listened to Mrs. Huan say: "Concubine Xian Niangniang is worried about you, no, I sent Gonggong Feng to bring you a girl!" ”
Feng Qingkang hurriedly smiled when he heard this: "Madame is too high-minded, what kind of girl, she is just a slave!" Saying that, he turned to Pei Yao and said: "This is the virtuous concubine Niangniang who feels sorry for the four girls, afraid that the girl will marry into the Chu Wangfu and become the main mother, and the person who can do things will be short for a while, so she pointed to the handmaid mirror of the Xiancui Palace and gave it to the four girls!" ”
After speaking, he gestured backwards, and the girl who had been standing behind him stepped forward and saluted respectfully to everyone.
Pei Yaowei looked at Feng Qingkang, and then at the girl in front of her with low eyebrows, and guessed two possibilities in her heart.
Either this person was really sent by Mercy, or ......
It is Xiao Chai who borrowed the name of Min Dai and planted eyeliner beside him.
"Concubine Lao Xian is bothered, but it's just ......" she said: "Gonggong Feng, the maidservant of the Xiancui Palace, Niangniang pointed it out to me like this, there won't be anything wrong, right?" ”
Feng Qingkang understood her voice, and then replied: "Fourth girl, don't worry, Your Majesty has approved it, and the mother dares to act like this." ”
And so it was.
Pei Yao smiled and generously accepted the person.
Xiao Chai's suspicions have always been heavy. can be like now, and let people be monitored by his side, Pei Yaowei can still breathe a sigh of relief, after all, open guns are easy to dodge, and hidden arrows are difficult to prevent.
But when Yu Zhi saw her go out, she brought a big girl back, even if she only knew that it was given by the virtuous concubine, the little girl was a little reluctant.
"What, I'm afraid that as soon as the mirror shadow comes, you two will fall out of favor?" Pei Yaowei asked Yu Xu to take the mirror shadow down to settle down, and she took Yu Zhi into the inner room and asked jokingly.
Yu Zhi's face is not very good-looking at this time. She has always been moody, and for this reason, even if Pei Yaowei didn't like her temperament at first, she was still very relieved of her.
She frowned and said aggrievedly: "Girl, it's so decent, what does the virtuous concubine Niangniang point out to do for you?" Is it because the slaves and maids are not well served? ”
Pei Yao didn't tell her the truth, she only said that the eldest sister probably thought that there were many things going on in the Chu Wangfu, and being a housewife was not as good as being a girl, so I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to cope with it.
"But......" Yu Zhi thought about it, but she was still not happy, "girl, you won't only hurt her in the future because she is a mother's reward, and you won't hurt me and Yu Xu, right?" ”
Pei Yao couldn't cry or laugh, and pressed a little harder on her forehead, "You, what do you want with this little head?" If you are obedient, don't cause trouble, don't cause trouble, I naturally love you! In the future, maybe I will show you a good marriage! ”
Yu Zhi's face turned red, but she said: "Slaves and maids don't get married!" Whoever leaves the girl, I won't leave! I will follow you and serve you for the rest of my life! ”
She snorted and glanced at Yu Zhi: "Wasn't it time to avoid me a while ago?" ”
Yu Zhi looked a little embarrassed, and after thinking about it for a long time, she mustered up the courage to say to her: "Girl, what you say, these days, the slave and maid have something to think about!" ”
"Well, what did you come up with?"
"The slave and maid have followed you since childhood, watching you suffer and be wronged, except for protecting you by any means, the slave and maid don't know what use they have."
She knelt at Pei Yao's feet and said slowly: "You also taught me this in the past, in order not to suffer, we can only strike first." Can ...... now Since you said that this is not good, it is not right, even if the slave and maid still have something to understand in their hearts, but as long as it is your teaching, the slave and maid are willing to listen to it, and never do bad things in the future and make you angry! ”
Hearing this, Pei Yao couldn't help but smile.
This girl and her master were also miserable people. In the past, they were forced to live by self-preservation, but in the end, they became the best at all, which is naturally wrong, but knowing that repentance and repentance are still in time to repent, they are already luckier than most people.
"It's comforting for you to think so." She pulled Yuzhi to stand up, "In this way, from today onwards, you will copy a sutra from me every night, and as the days go by, there will always be a day when your mind will be peaceful and enlightened." ”
Yu Zhi responded with great ambition.
After a busy day during the day, in the evening, Pei Yaowei came up sleepy, and wanted to settle it earlier, but Juan Niang sent things back and forth several times, which were snacks and soothing soup, and when she came for the fourth time, Pei Yaowei understood that this was mostly Mrs. Huan's reluctance, and she was afraid that she would come over and disturb her again, so she sent people to toss one by one.
So this fourth time, when Juan Niang returned to Nanyuan, she went with her.
When Mrs. Huan saw her coming, she was obviously overjoyed, but she was afraid of delaying her rest, so she didn't say a word, so she urged her to go back to rest early.
"It's okay, the father will rest in the Lixing Building tonight, and the daughter is reluctant to go back, so I won't go back, is it okay to sleep with my mother tonight?"
Mrs. Huan can't say anything bad.
At night, the mother and daughter were lying on the same couch and talked for a long time, and when they were about to fall asleep, Juan Niang came in in a hurry to report, "Madam, four girls! Something happened! ”
Pei Yao lifted the bed tent, "What's the matter?" ”
"It's Yu Zhi in the courtyard of the fourth girl, you ......" Juan Niang's face couldn't bear it, "Go back and have a look!" ”
