Old Marquis Xue paused slightly, and only said after a while: "Juxian does not avoid relatives and enemies, and he is worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of the country, and the people, it is enough!" ”

Old Madam Xue listened to the righteousness that the old marquis said, so she laughed: "You really have no selfishness? ”

Old Marquis Xue pursed his lips and didn't answer, but his eyes flashed.

The old lady couldn't help laughing: "You are really getting older and more treacherous. ”

Old Marquis Xue said: "What people are worried about, what people want, what adults want, how can Mrs. say that I am cunning?" It was Sheng Wenhui who wanted his son to be famous, and he also wanted his son to be famous. I'm just helping, not harming him......"

Mrs. Sheng couldn't help laughing, but when she thought of Xue Dongyu, who was in the Sheng family, her happiness in her heart was reduced by five points.

"Sheng Wenhui calculates and fails, will he embarrass my sister?" The old lady was worried, "Our reputation for generations, there are no criminal men in the family, and there are no remarried daughters in the family, Sister Yu must be in the Sheng family for the rest of her life." ”

Thinking about it, Old Madam Xue couldn't help but hate the Queen Mother and the Emperor again.

It was their mother and son who gave Sister Ying a marriage and repaired it, putting the old lady in a dilemma.

can complain about the emperor and the queen mother, who will be punished by God, Mrs. Xue also hated a few words in her heart and didn't dare to say it.

Speaking of Dongyi in the Sheng family, the old marquis also sighed: "If our family is defeated, Sister Yu will be cut off from relying on it, so she can really follow the Sheng family." It's just that our family won, even if Sheng Wenhui hates Sister Xuan, he still has to respect us a little, and he doesn't dare to embarrass her on the surface. ”

In the Warring States Policy, it is said that those who share the same enemy go on a blind date, and those who want the same hate each other. Sheng Wenhui and the Xue family now have a common enemy, so they are naturally blind date.

But they also have a common **, and they will inevitably compete with each other in the future.

The daughter of the Xue family who married into the Sheng family had to learn to survive in the cracks.

That's politics.

The old marquis and the old lady talked in the inner room for a long time, and the Sheng family also knew that Sheng Xiuyi was about to return to Beijing.

Sheng Changhou told Mrs. Sheng.

Mrs. Sheng turned her head and called someone to tell Dongyu.

When Dong Yu heard the news, he was also happy, and he hurriedly came to Yuanyang Pavilion and asked Mrs. Sheng: "Can the prince return to Beijing for the New Year?" ”

Mrs. Sheng smiled: "Hurry up." Maybe it's just in time for the Lantern Festival. ”

That is to say, the Chinese New Year is not in time.

"The prince is returning this time, is he going to be an official and a knight?" Dongyu knew that Mrs. Sheng liked it in her heart, and asked her with a smile.

Mrs. Sheng smiled: "My mother is the same as you." Staying in the inner house all day, where can you know about the affairs of the court? I just look forward to seeing Brother Yi as soon as possible, whether to add officials or not, let it be. ”

Dong Yu smiled.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law laughed happily for a while, and the little maid in the outer courtyard came in to say that the grandmother's aunt had come to see the grandmother.

Mrs. Sheng was a little surprised and looked at Dong Yu.

Dong Ying thought that it was the maiden family of the fifth lady Yang, and he was puzzled by the people of Jianheng Bo Mansion to see what he was doing. Mrs. Sheng has already said, "Please come in." ”

Mrs. Dong Yu and Mrs. Sheng stood at the door of Yuanyang Pavilion to greet her, a forty-year-old woman wearing a purple silk jacket with golden sleeves all over the place, fair skin, round face and almond eyes, and a small pear vortex on her cheeks when she smiled, which made her look very charitable.

Mrs. Sheng's first impression of this aunt was very good, and she felt that she was a kind-hearted person.

Dong Ying frowned.

She had seen the two ladies of Jianhengbo's mansion, and this woman was not from Jianhengbo's mansion.

Could it be the Han family?

Thinking. She looked at the woman again, and she was helped to her by the maids who greeted her, such as Mother Kang and Citron.

The green float beside the old lady followed and served.

"Ma'am." Mrs. Han curtsy Mrs. Sheng.

Mrs. Sheng glanced at Dongyu and saw that she was even more confused than herself. I don't care, I also salute this Mrs. Han.

Dongyu heard that it was her aunt, although she didn't know her identity, she still saluted first.

Before Lu Fu stepped forward to speak, Mrs. Han waited for Dong Ying to salute, and tears fell in tears: "This is Sister Yu?" You and Sanniang look exactly the same. Sanniang has been gone all these years, and I actually saw ...... again"

After that, I was really choked with emotion.

Dong Yu confirmed that it was the sister-in-law of her biological mother Han, her eyes were a little astringent, and she saluted her again. Called my aunt.

The big maids on the side were busy persuading and handed the handkerchief to Mrs. Han.

Mrs. Sheng also advised.

The group entered the warm inner room, the maids served tea, and Mrs. Han was still looking at Dongyu, liking and sighing: "When our family left Beijing, you were still so young." It's also like Sanniang. Now it's what Sanniang looked like back then. ”

As he spoke, he couldn't hold back his tears.

Mrs. Sheng also accompanied her with wet eyes.

Mrs. Han stopped her tears and said with a smile: "Madam, look at me, as soon as I see Sister Yu'er, I lose my temper, which makes you sad." ”

Mrs. Sheng also knew about the Han family, and understood that their girls had not seen each other for many years, and Dongyu looked like her mother, so it was reasonable for Mrs. Han to be emotional, so she said, "Where are you?" My aunt came to see Ah Jin, and I liked it in my heart. ”

Mrs. Han wiped away her tears for a while, and told Dongyu and Mrs. Sheng about the purpose of going to Beijing, and asked the maid behind her to come in with a sandalwood brocade box.

The brocade box is several times larger than the usual jewelry box, and the maid holds it very heavyly, which should be a lot of jewelry.

Mrs. Han took it, put it on the kang table and pushed it to Dongyu: "In the days of your wedding, your grandmother was not good, and no one at home came to send you off." My grandmother was in danger, and when she woke up, she kept talking about it. This is a box from your grandmother, don't be too light. ”

Dongyu got up and saluted Mrs. Han again: "Thank you grandmother for your concern, and your aunt brought it here." My aunt received three heads for my grandmother. ”

As he spoke, he was about to kneel.

Mrs. Han hurriedly stopped: "You are pregnant, get up, get up!" Then he choked up and said, "It's good to see you, I'll go back and tell your grandmother, and she is also relieved." ”

I don't know why, the corners of Dongyu's eyes became wet when she heard these words.

When she left the cabinet, no one from the Han family came, and she never complained. After all, she's just a niece.

Now looking at this poetry box, the warmth in my heart can't help but come up.

wiped away their tears silently for a long time before revealing the touching of the first meeting.

Mrs. Sheng heard that the two young masters of the Han family were both promoted and now lived in the Zhenxian Marquis Mansion waiting for Chunqiu, so she said: "My aunt and uncle have brought two cousins to live in our mansion. ”

Mrs. Han said: "The ancestor of the Xue family is sincere, and it is cheap to live there, thank you for your kindness." He also said, "The rules of our Anqing Mansion." I can't spend the New Year at a foreigner's house, so I've been packing up my house in recent days and moving in while the year is over. If Mrs. and Sister Yu don't dislike the simplicity of the humble house, he will go and sit down in the future. ”

Look at this stance. Is it to settle down again in Shengjing?

Dong Yu thought about it, so he hurriedly said goodbye.

Mrs. Sheng also said yes.

Mrs. Han had lunch at Sheng's house, and talked with Mrs. Sheng for half an afternoon before returning to the Zhenxian Marquis's Mansion.

She entered the door with her front foot, and the congratulatory gifts from Dong Ying and Mrs. Sheng to the two young masters of the Han family were delivered.

Mrs. Han was also very relieved to see that Mrs. Sheng was also kind, and she didn't take Qiao like the Xue family.

Go back and tell the old lady. Knowing that Sanniang's daughter married into a good family, and had a kind mother-in-law, the old lady also said that she was happy.

On the twenty-ninth day of the winter month, it was advisable to move, and Mrs. Han took the two young masters to move back to the house that Han Shangshu had purchased.

Both the Xue family and the Sheng family gave generous gifts.

The eighth day of the fifth month of Yuanchang is another year's Laba Festival. In the morning, I had just eaten Laba porridge when I heard that Mrs. Xiao asked for Zhishi. His henchmen have demanded his dismissal.

Protest against the patrol to disrupt the Northwest Battalion.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Yuanchang, who had always been in awe of Xiao Taifu, readily agreed.

The civil and military generals in the court were dismissed nearly half of them at once. The imperial court was paralyzed in an instant.

When Mrs. Xiao was still complacent, a few days later, he heard the death of his eldest son Xiao Xuanxiao.

As soon as the news was announced, many ministers who had taken refuge in Mrs. Xiao felt remorseful.

Emperor Yuanchang knew that the people's hearts were shaken, and then issued a holy decree, and all the officials who resigned were promoted to one level, and they were increased by two percent, promising never to settle accounts after the autumn.

This matter was troubled until the first month of the sixth year of Yuanchang.

Just thinking that the situation was going to be stable, there was a sudden palace change, and the guards and eunuchs buried in the palace by Mrs. Xiao rushed into various palaces. Slash the concubine and the prince.

Old Marquis Xue and Marquis Sheng Chang escorted them with a thousand slaves.

Sheng Xiumu, the third son of the Marquis of Shengchang, had the courage of ten thousand people, protected Emperor Yuanchang, and captured Taifu Xiao alive.

There were many injuries to the eunuchs and maids in the palace, but the concubines, princes and princesses were safe.

How to deal with Taifu Xiao became a matter of difficulty for Emperor Yuanchang again.

And in this turmoil, the Queen Mother was overly frightened. He also had his leg cut and was groggy and delirious.

Then, her situation got worse and worse, and even said that the emperor was not born to her, but to Concubine Chen Shu, and said that Concubine Chen Shu asked her for her life.

The emperor did not undress day and night in front of the queen mother's bed.

In the end, the imperial doctors made a message and sent the Queen Mother to the Royal Mountain Villa to recuperate, and the palace was not suitable for the Queen Mother to live.

In just a few months in the six palaces, there was no queen and no queen mother, and the ladies in each palace took action one after another, some of them befriended Xue Guifei, some of them befriended Concubine Sheng, and some of them befriended Xue Shufei, and the people's hearts were unstable for a while.

And Emperor Yuanchang didn't seem to understand, but he only occasionally went to Concubine Sheng's palace to be more diligent.

The direction of the wind has changed, and everyone speculates that the future mother will be the mother of the world, and it must be Sheng Guifei Niangniang.

In the imperial court, Xiao Taifu's entire family was detained in Dali Temple and waited for the trial. Xiao Taifu has too many henchmen, if he is killed casually, these henchmen may be in danger, and there will be turmoil in the DPRK and China.

How to deal with Mrs. Xiao and the Xiao family still needs to be considered in the long run.

After a catastrophe, it was the warm day of spring, and the scorching sun of March was unusually bright.

When Sheng Xiuyi stepped back to Shengjing again, the Chinese military officer greeted him at Xiwu Gate.

Dressed in plain clothes and with a gentle face, the Marquis of Sheng Chang stood at the head of everyone.

When he left Kyoto, everyone thought he was going to die; When he returned, it was already full of recitation.

During this period, for a full nine months, only Sheng Xiuyi knew what he had experienced.

Dong Ying and Mrs. Sheng were also ready to welcome Sheng Xiuyi.

Dongyu, who was standing in front of the door with Mrs. Sheng and was looking forward to it, suddenly felt unbearable pain in his lower abdomen.

She held Rose's hand and bent down with a groan.

"Grandma is going to give birth."
