093 Who Sent You? (There are still updates.)
Hearing this, Han Jiye hurriedly took his sister farther away from his mother's house, and warned him repeatedly: "Father is still hesitating about the affairs of the mighty general's mansion, I will try my best to help you, but you have to be obedient, don't provoke Liang Dingshan." โ
Han Yuerou said with a cold face: "In my brother's eyes, what have I become?" When did you see me provoking Liang Dingshan or another man? โ
"It's the eldest brother who said the wrong thing, the softer, but you understand what I mean." Han Jiye was extremely embarrassed, he knew his sister, the dignified and virtuous daughter in the eyes of outsiders, and the filial daughter who would not be the slightest mistake in front of her parents, in fact, she had a strong personality in her heart, and it was precisely because of this that she maintained the appearance in the eyes of outsiders and her father for 20 years.
"Brother, go out quickly, don't delay the serious business, don't you know me, what can happen to me." Han Yuerou calmed down and smiled slightly at her brother, "Brother, don't worry, I'm fine." โ
The brother and sister soon dispersed, and Han Yuerou was about to go to her mother's house, when she saw the aunts come together to greet her wife. Aunt Sun was not among them, and when the others saw her, their eyes flickered and they were far away, and they used to be polite and warm, but now when the aunts see her, they all avoid her.
Obviously, Aunt Sun's matter made other people's lips and teeth cold. The second lady's kindness is good, it can be seen that what is the matter if you don't save it, compared to not getting subsidized relief, the result of the second miss not standing up and saying a fair word is even worse, Aunt Sun is now paralyzed on the bed, I don't know when I can get better.
All these changes, after Aunt Sun's accident, Han Yuerou felt it, she was originally in this family, she was a bodhisattva fairy-like existence, and the aunts were bullied by their mothers, but they could get some comfort from her kindness, no one was enthusiastic and affectionate when they saw her, but this kind of relationship was very unreliable, once they lost their interests, there was nothing. If you don't really want to be a good person, but just want to win a good reputation, the clouds in front of you will be wiped out sooner or later.
Compared with Jinzhu, who is hated by others, everyone says that he is good, but in fact, the situation is even more difficult. Just because everyone says hello, you can't tolerate doing even the slightest thing wrong, and doing something wrong is a great crime in the eyes of others. Although Han Yuerou failed to speak for Aunt Sun was her fault first, she erased all her good since then, and even her intention to help her aunts secretly was trampled on.
In this home, she has almost nothing left.
It is said that at the court meeting on this day, the emperor did not mention the gathering of the Marquis of Shenshan, but discussed with the ministers Liang Dingshan's countermeasures to streamline the two expenses of the imperial court's sacrifice and tribute. Rather than discussing whether the strategy of Dingshan is feasible, the ministers are more to figure out what the emperor means, if the emperor thinks it is good, they will naturally respond, but they did not expect a court meeting to come down, the young man who has not yet sat in the official chair of the Ministry of Rites has changed the old rules of the court for hundreds of years, and the emperor immediately assigned Dingshan to start rectification, as soon as possible to know and spread throughout the country.
However, in these two things, the sacrifice is not enough, but only a few times a year, but there is a fixed number of greedy, and the involvement of tribute is great. From the bottom to the top of the selection examination, there are countless human contacts, and now Liang Dingshan said that to streamline the cost, it is necessary to streamline the transfer of personnel first, and the whole body will be affected, and the once inherent interest relationship is about to be broken, and the Han family, which is the biggest beneficiary, which year will not come to visit the uncle's mansion?
But Uncle Han will not be angry for this, immersed in the court for decades, single-handedly supported the emperor to ascend to the throne, experienced countless bloody storms, how could he be uneasy for a hairy boy to emerge. But after seeing the queen that day, when it came to Liang Dingshan, Uncle Han had any concerns: "The emperor's attitude towards him is ambiguous, and the mother has to keep an eye on it, I don't know if one day I will use that kid to deal with us." โ
The queen was even more ruthless: "In this case, what's the use of keeping it, my brother arranged for someone to solve him earlier." โ
Uncle Han touched his beard and said, "It's so easy to die, but if you can die for us and pave the way for Jiye's future, it's also good." โ
The queen is very disdainful, but she lives in the inner palace, she can't see or touch the things outside, and what she can worry about is limited, and the thing she cares about most at the moment is the lifelong event of the two children, and asked her brother: "Is it time to decide the marriage between Yue Rou and the mighty general's mansion?" โ
Uncle Han sneered: "That old horseman is very weird, saying that his son is too old and not a good match for my daughter." It's ridiculous, my family doesn't like it, what does he care, a hypocrisy. โ
The queen worried: "If we want to take the mighty general, I'm afraid it will be difficult." โ
In the blink of an eye, it has been three days since the gathering of the hall masters of Shending Village, Han Jiye checked whether the people who went to Beijing left smoothly, and whether there were suspicious people within a radius of 20 miles outside the capital.
However, Han Yuerou didn't see Chiba, it wasn't that Chiba didn't see the guests behind closed doors, and their young lady Liang Huili greeted her very warmly, and said politely: "The princess and her brother went out, if Miss Han wants to wait, I don't know when to wait, why don't you ask Miss Han to go back first, and when the princess returns, I will definitely tell you." When the time comes, please ask the princess to post and invite the young lady to be a guest at home. โ
Han Yuerou's sudden visit was abrupt, the main family was so polite, how could she insist, she could only go home disappointed, but she was curious about where the couple went, and sent someone to inquire, what she could find out was what it was.
It turned out that Dingshan was to bring Chiba to fulfill his wish, and this day he left everything behind and rushed home, and Chiba took tribute incense, candles, paper money, and cotton to the prince's mansion together, but Chiba regretted it for many years.
After many years, I went back to my former home, and when I returned to the home where she saw her mother commit suicide by hanging a beam, the carriage drove slowly, Chiba became nervous, and Joyama sat on the side without caring about cotton, and held her hand generously, wanting to reassure her.
When I arrived at the Prince's Mansion, everything in front of me was like a world away, Chiba had come with the imperial grandfather many years ago, but he had never been here for two years before the imperial grandfather died. After the death of the first emperor, she was trapped in the deep palace and bullied, who would have thought of taking her home to take a look. However, because of Prince Ruide's outstanding sacrifice for the country, his mansion was fortunate to be preserved, but that's all, at least now after ascending the throne, he has never really shown respect for his brother, as if to dilute his existence, and have compensated for the light that was overshadowed by his brother in the past.
The Prince's Mansion has been vacant and uninhabited for many years, and the plaques of the sect have been exposed to the sun and rain, and it is inevitable that the old ones will be damaged, but as Dingshan said, everything here is clean and tidy, and it is obvious that someone comes to clean it from time to time, but I don't know who it is.
Push the door in, the courtyard is deep, Chiba with memory with Joyama to go inside, but this is her home after all, even if she only lived for five years, there are things engraved in her heart in those five years, and the feet are unconsciously familiar, and when she comes back to her senses, she is already outside the courtyard where her father and mother live.
Joyama went to look at the door, Chiba looked around again, and Cotton said on the side: "Even the flowers and trees are pruned, what kind of person is so attentive and often comes to clean?" Or are there people in the court, can there be such rules in the palace? โ
Chiba said: "There is no rule, and no one will care, but it is just a matter of personal will." โ
"Chiba." Dingshan suddenly called her, and she walked towards her husband, but Dingshan stepped forward to stop her, frowned slightly, and said, "You saw it, don't be sad." โ
Chiba smiled: "It's not like I haven't come back, I've followed the imperial grandfather a few times before." โ
Joyama shook his head, took her hand and walked through the courtyard gate, the scene in front of him shocked Chiba, behind the courtyard gate was an empty piece of land, bleak and desolate with wild grass, and outside the courtyard gate were like two worlds. The house where my father and mother used to live is gone, and everything in this house is well preserved, but the whole courtyard here is gone.
"What's going on? Where did the house go? Chiba's face turned pale with shock, and she didn't know what was going on, and now she couldn't even go under the beam to pay respects to her mother.
Dingshan frowned: "I'll go with Zhuo Xi to inquire about what happened, and it's strange to think about it, why just demolish everything in the main courtyard."
Chiba had tears in her eyes, when she plucked up the courage to come back, when she finally had the opportunity to return to this home again, everything that had been gone was gone, who even had to deprive her of the memory of being favored under her father's knees?
Cotton stepped forward to support her and persuaded: "Don't be sad, princess, why don't we clean up here, light incense and candles and pay tribute, even if the house is gone, the prince and the princess will recognize this as home, and they will recognize you." โ
Chiba nodded sadly, but rolled up his sleeves, but he didn't know where to start, Dingshan said that weeding with his bare hands was slow and hard, and he went to the house to find out if there were any tools available, since there were often people taking care of it here, maybe he would leave something behind. When the mountain came out, it was as if he saw someone probing his head in the bushes, he walked over quietly, suddenly jumped into the bushes, and carried people out in three or two strokes, lest he frighten Chiba, and took him far away first.
"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives." The person who knelt on the ground and trembled in fright was a thin man in his thirties, who was easily subdued by Dingshan, which showed that he had no kung fu skills, but he was just an ordinary person.
Dingshan looked at his hand on the ground again, his ten fingers were thick and covered with calluses, obviously dealing with dirt all day long, and he asked, "Are you in charge of the flowers and trees in this house?" โ โณโงโณโง๏ผ
The man shuddered: "It's a villain, the villain and his wife come back every three or two days to clean the courtyard and pick up flowers and plants." โ
Dingshan said: "You get up and speak, I'm not an adult, and you don't recognize me, don't you?" โ
The man got up in panic, stole a few glances at Dingshan, and hung his head and did not dare to speak.
Joyama asked, "Who asked you to come here and how long has it been?" โ
"It's been five years, and who's ...... The villain doesn't know either. The man stopped talking, looking around, as if he was worried that someone else would appear.
"Will there be anyone else?" Joyama was vigilant.
"Yes and no." The man was hesitating, and suddenly he was stuffed with a large piece of silver by Dingshan, and he became even more entangled, and it took a long time before he said, "The person who brought us here is just a master in a big mansion, and at first we didn't know why we cleaned this house, but after a long time, we realized that the top master was the queen mother in the palace." It was the queen who sent someone to clean up, and the work fell layer by layer, falling on the two of us, and I was always scared after I knew it, but I didn't expect to meet you. โ
