The queen is gone?

Dong Ying was slightly stunned and asked Rose, "Who did you listen to?" ”

"Madame told me." Rose said, "The palace has issued a decree to report the funeral, the queen mother is a moment of small burial today, and the spirit is in the Xifang Palace at the north gate of the court, and the internal and external women will enter the palace tomorrow and cry for seven days." Madame said, let's prepare a few more clothes for grandma to protect against the cold......"

It's the real thing.

Sheng Guifei Niangniang had just given birth to the fourth prince, and before she was full-term, the queen mother collapsed.

Dong Ying sat quietly on the kang, and his voice did not regret and grief, but brought a little relief: "The prince is coming back soon......"

Did he succeed?

If the major events in the northwest are undecided, the royal family will not dare to touch the queen. Now that the military power in the northwest is falling, the emperor wants to catch the Xiao family off guard.

Maybe there was also news from the northwest, but Marquis Sheng Chang did not allow his relatives to interfere in the government affairs, cut off the news of Sheng Xiuyi, and did not let Dongyu and Mrs. Sheng know, for fear that they would worry indiscriminately.

Now it's finally done, and Dongyi's heart has landed.

Dong Yu still remembers the woman she saw when she entered the palace last year, she was wearing the queen's court clothes, sitting beside the queen mother with a solemn expression, holding the shelf of the mother's world.

Now it is a wisp of soul in the world.

Dongyu got up and asked Rose to serve her into a plain moon-white collared long jacket.

On the thirteenth day of the winter month of the fifth year of Yuanchang, the queen Xiao collapsed, dropped out of the dynasty for five days, served Su, laid seven days a day, and gathered inside and outside to serve the cloth, and cried for seven days. 100 days of vegetarian food. After 100 days of release, he was taken in 27 months. A few feasts, crowns and tassels. Buried in the Emperor's Mausoleum, it is said that Queen Herui.

Dong Yu had lunch and rested for a while. Let the maid go and tell the aunts that today's greetings are spared.

"You go and tell the steward of the outer courtyard that I want a soft sedan chair." Dong Ying said to the eldest maid, "The rough envoy who carries the sedan chair wants two, and I will personally tell the lady when I turn back." ”

Xun Fang knew that Dong Yu was going to say goodbye to Mrs. Sheng.

The road was slippery on a snowy day, and Mrs. Sheng did not allow Dongyu to walk over. I'm afraid she has a fetal gas. Now it's okay to sit in a sedan chair.

Xun Fang was busy, and when he went out, he wore clogs, and took a little maid with him. Hurriedly went.

The housekeeper of the outer courtyard heard that it was the grandmother who wanted a soft sedan chair and a rough mother-in-law who carried the sedan chair, so he didn't say a word, and looked for a soft sedan chair. He also sent two tall and strong mothers-in-law.

Dong Ying was accompanied by Rose and Xun Fang, and took a sedan chair to Mrs. Sheng's Yuanyang Pavilion.

When Mrs. Sheng saw her coming, she hurriedly instructed the maid to take off her cloak for her. And he called for piping hot tea.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sat down, and Mrs. Sheng blamed her for being disobedient and came in the snow with a big belly.

Rose, who was waiting on the side, was busy telling Mrs. Sheng about the soft sedan chair.

Mrs. Sheng smiled at this time: "That's right." I also want to get you a sedan chair to come in, but I'm afraid that you will be too careful, thinking that I am mean to be a mother-in-law, and thinking that Fa'er will force my daughter-in-law to set provincial rules in the morning and dusk......"

Dong Yu hurriedly smiled: "If I don't know what to do like this, my mother will hurt me in vain." ”

The smile in the corner of Mrs. Sheng's eyes was still victorious.

Dongyu saw that Mrs. Sheng did not blame. He said, "Mother, I am not more expensive than others." I carried a sedan chair into the inner house, but I also wanted not to let you worry about me walking on the snowy road. I can always come and accompany you. But there is no such rule in the rooms, and when I have passed this time, I will still send it back. Two rough mothers-in-law, let's come out of my room. When the weather was better, I still asked them to go back to their respective errands. Their current errand, choose two mothers-in-law from my hospital to take over......"

Dong Ying said as Mrs. Sheng and Mother Kang laughed.

After she finished speaking, Mrs. Sheng took her hand: "You child, can't the family afford your sedan chair?" With your limelight, my mother will also be a good person, and give your second brother and sister and sister Yi a lift. It's really not cheap to come over on a snowy day. ”

Then he said to Kang's mother, "Go back and tell the little maid to tell Lin Jiufu that we will set this rule in the future." On rainy and snowy days, the mothers-in-law were sent in to carry the sedan chair. ”

Dong Yu hurriedly thanked Mrs. Sheng, and said very embarrassedly: "I made my own decisions, so that there are more expenses in the house......"

"It's not worth anything." Mrs. Sheng smiled kindly, "You also want to come to greet your mother, but you are afraid that your mother will worry that you will walk carelessly." For this filial piety, what is this expense? ”

Dong Yu thanked him again.

As the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking, the topic naturally turned to tomorrow's crying and mourning.

"Look at this snow, it won't stop tomorrow." Mrs. Sheng's eyebrows were a little sad, "You are almost seven months old, my mother is really afraid of your ......"

I was afraid that Dongyu would get cold and move the fetus, but I felt that when I mentioned such unlucky words, it was like a curse, and I swallowed the words that came to my mouth.

"I'll wear more. Mother, my body has always been very good, you don't have to worry. Dongyu comforted Mrs. Sheng and asked her again, "Daddy is going to cry tomorrow, right?" ”

Mrs. Sheng said: "It's not ......"

When the two of them talked, they all revolved around the snowy day, and Mrs. Sheng didn't mention the death of Queen Xiao, only said that she would cry tomorrow.

The queen mother collapsed, and Concubine Sheng Gui, who gave birth to two sons, had the opportunity to motherize the world, and Mrs. Sheng did not like it in her heart.

can't say it, or even show a little, otherwise it will affect Sheng Guifei Niangniang and the Sheng family.

Dong Yu naturally wouldn't lead her.

As she was talking, the little maid in the outer courtyard ran to say that Mrs. Shizi of the Marquis of Zhenxian Mansion had come to greet Mrs. Sheng.

Mrs. Sheng sighed, looked back and said to Dong Yu with a smile: "It's snowing so hard, why is your aunt here?" Then he instructed Kang's mother, "Bring someone to pick it up." ”

Kang's mother said yes, and took the citron and a little maid to pick up Dongyu's aunt Rong.

Two cups of tea, there was laughter in the yard.

The maids hurriedly helped Dongyu and Mrs. Sheng to get off the kang and went outside to greet the wife of the Marquis of Zhenxian, Mrs. Rong.

Kang's mother lifted the felt curtain with her own hands, Rong walked in with a smile on her face, and when she saw Mrs. Sheng and Dongying coming out, she didn't have time to take off her cloak, and bowed to Mrs. Sheng: "Mrs. in-laws, please say hello to you." ”

Mrs. Sheng is the same age as the Rong family, although the grade is higher than her, but she is a family of children and daughters, and she does not dare to take it at all, so she returns the Rong family with a flat courtesy: "It's freezing this day, why are you here?" ”

Dong Yu also bowed his knees to the wife of the prince.

The maids of Yuanyang Pavilion were busy serving the Rong clan with their cloaks and clogs, and Mrs. Sheng took her into the eastern room and ordered the maids to bring hot tea.

Mrs. Sheng sat on the kang facing Mrs. Rong's son, and Dongyu sat down with her, and Rong smiled lightly: "Aren't you going to cry for Queen Herui tomorrow?" There is such a thick snow on the ground, our ancestors are afraid that your knees will freeze, so they asked me to bring you something......"

As she spoke, she called the maid who came with her, Hua Shinobi, to bring up the things.

Wearing a green silk jacket, the maid Hana Shinobu handed a dark green burden into the hands of the prince's wife, Rong.

Rong spread out his baggage, which were two pairs of gray-brown fur knee pads. The Rong family only said that he would send something to Mrs. Sheng, but he sent two pairs, and the discerning people understood that it was Xue Lao Ancestor who was afraid that Dongyu would freeze, so he ~~-~~ meant that the Rong family sent it.

I couldn't bypass Mrs. Sheng, so I simply took two sets.

Looking at the glittering fur, you can see that things are very valuable.

Mrs. Sheng was very grateful: "The old ancestor is too polite, how can we afford it?" On weekdays, I don't have good things to honor my ancestors, and I still collect things from my ancestors. Besides, if you run this trip on a snowy day, I can't bear it even more. ”

Rong smiled and said, "The in-laws are polite. Don't blame us for having a lot of things going on in our house. Then he took the knee pad and showed it to Mrs. Sheng, "If it was an ordinary thing, it wouldn't be a bad trip." This is made of mink skin, which is impervious to water, and is better than the fur in the mountains. ”

Mrs. Sheng was surprised at this time, and touched it with her hand, it was indeed different from the fur in the mountains, it was very slippery.

Rong explained: "The third master of our family traveled to study in Nanwan Kingdom, and I don't know what kind of creation it is, but he actually became the master of the lord of the country and taught the lord of the country some poems of our Central Plains. Knowing that Shengjing was cold in winter, the third master took this from the Nanwan Palace and sent it to Shengjing a few days ago. ”

Mrs. Sheng didn't dare to accept it this time, so she excused herself and said, "The old ancestor is older, how can I accept this that should be given to the old ancestor?" ”

Thinking about it, I felt that it was inappropriate, and it was clearly not for Mrs. Sheng, but for Dongyi.

Mrs. Sheng was thinking about how to change this sentence and leave a pair for Dongyu, but Mrs. Rong of the prince had already smiled and said, "Look, I came here on this snowy day, and you asked me to bring it back?" The ancestor still doesn't scold me for being unfavorable? Don't worry, a total of three pairs were sent, and the ancestors kept them. ”

The three pairs, about one pair of the Marquis of Zhen Xian and the old lady, and the other one may be for the Xue family.

If it was on weekdays, Mrs. Sheng would have accepted it. Although things are very precious, the Sheng family can afford them.

But it coincides with a national funeral, and this thing is very useful.

Xue Dongyi's firstborn pregnancy, the Xue family was afraid that Dongying would freeze and fall ill, and they were afraid that they would only send it to Dongying and not to Mrs. Sheng, and Mrs. Sheng had opinions about her daughter-in-law and the Xue family.

How could Mrs. Sheng not understand this reasonable?

She took it and said to the Rong family: "You go back and kowtow to the old ancestor for me." Then he took out one pair, and the other pair was still wrapped in the burden brought by Rong, pushed it in front of Rong, and said with a smile, "I don't need it, Ah Ying is pregnant with Liujia, and I kept a pair for her." This one, you will bring it back to the old marquis for me. Hou Ye and I are juniors, and the old Hou Ye is an elder, so naturally we will respect the old Hou Ye first. ”

The Rong family pushed and pushed, but Mrs. Sheng insisted very much, and the Rong family had to accept it.

Mrs. Sheng gave the one left behind in front of the Rong family to Dong Yu: "You keep it, and you will wear it tomorrow." My mother is worried that you will be frozen tomorrow, so I am relieved. ”

Dong Ying excused himself: "The daughter-in-law doesn't dare to accept it." How can a daughter-in-law wear this thing and make her father and mother cold? ”

Mrs. Sheng smiled: "There are fur knee pads in the mountains at home, although they are not as good as this drop of water, but they are also warm." You accept it with peace of mind, and give birth to a big fat grandson in the coming day, which is a great filial piety to your father. ”

If he continued to prevaricate, it seemed very hypocritical, Dongyu's face was slightly red, and he felt that he had taken it, and let Rose take it.

Rong looked at it from the side, bowing slightly.
