When I arrived at Youzheng, the sky gradually darkened, Dong Ying thought about Brother Cheng in her heart, and said to Mrs. Sheng: "Mother, I'll go back to see Brother Cheng first, and then come back after eating." It's this hour, and you haven't had dinner yet. No matter how anxious you are, you have to have dinner. ”

Then he said to the citron and the chancellor, "You serve the lady and eat......"

Mrs. Sheng felt that Dong Ming's heart for the child was very similar to her feelings for Sheng Xiuyi's brothers when she was young, she understood it very well, and reluctantly smiled and said, "Go ahead, they are here to serve." You don't have to come again, if Brother Yi comes back, I'll call someone to tell you. ”

Dongyu said yes, turned around and walked out of Yuanyang Pavilion.

She first went to Zhenyuan to see Brother Cheng, and then went back to her Jingshi Courtyard for dinner.

No matter what happens, you can't delay your normal meal, otherwise you won't be in good health and you won't be able to carry anything.

Dongyu came back to eat at noon, and told Mother Luo and Tang Hong about Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Changhou entering the palace, and when she came back at this moment, she saw that she was absent-minded when she was eating, and Mother Luo and Tang Hong knew that the prince had not yet returned home.

"Sister Yu'er, maybe there is a banquet in the palace, and I came back late." Luo's mother comforted Dongyu.

Dong Yu swallowed all the grains of rice in his mouth before he said, "If it's not a big deal, you should send someone back to tell you." When the prince was called away by the prince, my wife and I both knew. Knowing that the family will be worried, the prince will not be so careless......"

There must be something going on in the palace.

But what the hell is going on?

Dongyu's heart was a little confused.

When she was in Yuanyang Pavilion, Mrs. Sheng was very anxious, and no matter how worried Dong Ying was, she didn't dare to show it, for fear of making Mrs. Sheng even more uneasy.

When she arrived in her own yard, her brow never relaxed.

Her understanding of the court was mainly the books and film and television works she had read in her previous life, as well as the few words she had spoken when she listened to her grandfather and grandmother chatting at the Xue family.

She is too unfamiliar with the court of this era.

Because of strangeness. Dongyu really couldn't imagine what would happen, so that the three of Shengchanghou's father and son would not go home at night.

She hastily ate half a bowl of rice, and Rose instructed the little maids to carry the kang table down and replace it with a new one. I brought hot tea to Dong Yu again.

"Grandma, do you want me to inquire?" Rose asked in a low voice, "Ye has not returned, and the people around him should also go to inquire about the news, right?" Maybe the people in the outer court know something, but they are just hiding it from you and your wife......"

Dong Ying remembered that when she dealt with Aunt Tao, Sheng Xiuyi originally wanted to lie to her and not let her know about it. For the woman of the inner house. The attitude of Sheng Changhou's father and son is very similar: if he can do more, he will not let the women in the inner courtyard worry about it.

If something happens, whether it is Sheng Xiuyi or Sheng Changhou, they will try to hide it from Dongyu and Mrs. Sheng, so as not to worry about them.

"No, you don't." Dongyu said, "Since you don't want to spread it to the inner courtyard, you naturally don't want me and my wife to worry." Let's rush to inquire, didn't we live up to the wishes of the prince and the prince? ”

Even if you know. What can these women, who do not leave the door and rely on men to survive?

Got it. Don't you worry?

It's going to be the same and I'm worried!

Dongyu took a deep breath, got up and took Rose to Zhenyuan to see Brother Cheng'er, and instructed Mother Luo and Tangerin to arrange things in the yard, and everything was the same as before.

"If someone from my wife's side comes looking for me, tell me that I am in the garden." When Dongyu was leaving, he said to Luo's mother.

Luo's mother said, I know.

When he arrived at Zhenyuan, Brother Cheng fell asleep again.

Dong Ying sat on the side of the child's cot, quietly thinking about his own thoughts.

Until the beginning of the year, Sheng Xiuyi's father and son never returned. At this moment, there is a curfew in the city. There's no way they're going to leave the palace tonight.

Dongyi's heart seemed to be blocked by something, and it was very heavy. She got up and went to Mrs. Sheng.

Mrs. Sheng was leaning on the big kang near the window, there were tears in the corners of her eyes, and when she saw Dongyu coming in, she thought it was the maid who reported the news, and a spirit got up. I saw that it was the East Jar and the Rose. Sighed again.

"Ah Jin, my heart is broken...... "Mrs. Sheng took Dong Jin's hand, her voice choked, "What the hell is going on?" Hou Ye has never been silent all night like this. ”

Dong Ying didn't know what was going on, but just said some words on the scene to comfort Mrs. Sheng and tell her not to worry. In fact, she herself was worried, and the solemnity between her eyebrows could no longer be concealed.

After a while, Mother Kang came in and told Mrs. Sheng: "...... It's been an hour, ma'am, is there still a key to the inner courtyard? ”

An hour has passed since the normal inner courtyard key.

Mrs. Sheng frowned, unable to make up her mind for a while, and glanced at Dongyu, as if to ask her opinion again.

Dong Yu said: "Mother, there are mothers-in-law on the door who are on duty at night, and when my father and the prince and the third master come back, naturally someone will open the door." Let's drop the key. If something happens, Daddy is worried about the outside and at home, how bad is it? ”

Mrs. Sheng nodded: "What you said is true." ”

Then let Kang's mother order to go down, the inner courtyard key, and rest everywhere, no need to wait.

Dong Yu also sent a little maid to the Jing Photography Courtyard and told Luo's mother and Tang Hong to arrange a few maids to be on duty for the night, and the rest of them rested.

The little maid who went to Jingshi Hospital to report the news came back, and Sheng Lehao actually came with her.

He must have come from the Silent Academy.

Seeing him coming, Dong Ying and Mrs. Sheng were slightly surprised.

Sheng Lehao saluted Dongyu and Mrs. Sheng, and said, "Grandmother, mother, the child heard that his father, grandfather, and third uncle went to the palace and did not come back. ”

When Mrs. Sheng heard this, she was very moved.

She beckoned to Sheng Le Hao, asked him to sit on the kang beside her, gently hugged him, and said, "Good boy, you have a heart......

Sheng Lehao's expression was a little unnatural, obviously not used to Mrs. Sheng's intimacy.

Mrs. Sheng let go of him, only took his hand, and asked him, "What did the stewards of the outer court say?" Do you know why your grandfather and daddy haven't come back yet? ”

Sheng Lehao shook his head and said, "Grandmother, don't worry, grandfather and father must have been in the palace to see the concubines and princes, and they missed the curfew before staying in the palace......"

Such a young child came to comfort her grandmother and mother, how could Mrs. Sheng not be moved? immediately hid his worries, smiled and said that Sheng Lehao was right, and asked him how he studied in the outer courtyard, how the maids could serve wholeheartedly, whether life was smooth, and what interesting things he had.

Sheng Le Hao replied carefully one by one. Not perfunctory.

In the past, when Mrs. Sheng asked him something, he always said yes, and he never wanted to say much to Mrs. Sheng. Seeing him like this at this moment is like returning to the days before childhood and theft.

Mrs. Sheng couldn't help but have tears in her eyes. Attention is distracted.

After talking for a long time, Dong Yu said: "Brother Hao, don't you have to study tomorrow?" ”

Sheng Lehao said yes.

"Oh, let's go back and rest." Mrs. Sheng glanced at the chiming bell on the wall, and although she was reluctant, she still let go of Sheng Lehao's hand.

Sheng Lehao comforted Mrs. Sheng and Dong Ying a few more words, and got up to say goodbye.

Dong Yu smiled: "Mother." I'll send Brother Hao ......"

Mrs. Sheng smiled and nodded.

It's almost the beginning of the child, the night is quiet, the air is a little cold, Dongyu sent Sheng Le Hao out of Yuanyang Pavilion, Sheng Le Hao's footsteps paused slightly, and said to Dong Yuan: "Mother, today is not only my father and grandfather, the third uncle did not leave the palace, but the old marquis of the Marquis Mansion. There are also several ministers, all in the palace. The people in the Tai Hospital are also on standby in the deep palace. Mother, I'm afraid something happened to someone in the palace......"

Watch the child speak neatly. Dong Yu's heart suddenly sudden. Suppressing her heart, she chuckled in a low voice: "I know, you can go back and rest." ”

Sheng Le Hao saw that Dong Yu didn't ask deeply, glanced at her, and then walked out with his little servant Yanyu.

Back in the east room of Yuanyang Pavilion, Mrs. Sheng sighed with Dong Ying: "Brother Hao is only twelve years old this year, and I was afraid that our mother and daughter would be in a hurry, so I went into the inner house late at night to comfort us. It's people who are at home all day long, and they don't come to the door to say a thoughtful word. ”

People who are at home all day...... It should refer to the second master Sheng Xiuhai.

Sheng Xiuyi and Sheng Changhou, father and son, did not return overnight. Maybe Sheng Xiuhai doesn't know; But the inner courtyard was only given the key when it arrived at Haizheng, and he should be clear.

Isn't he going to inquire about such an abnormality?

As long as you ask, you will find out that Sheng Xiuyi's father and son are not returning.

Teenage children all know that Mrs. Sheng and Dong Yu will be worried, don't the second master know?

He pretended to be deaf and dumb like this, and Mrs. Sheng was in a hurry. I didn't expect him. Now that there is a comparison, I feel a little unhappy.

"Ah Ming, you also know that Brother Hai was not raised in my belly, and it was originally separated by a layer." Mrs. Sheng sighed, "I have never been as strict as Brother Yi and Brother Mu, and I have been less scolding and demanding on him, and more tolerant." But he only blindly deceives me as a weak and easy to deceive......"

The topic and thoughts turned to the second master Sheng Xiuhai.

Since he was beaten by Sheng Changhou last year, the second master Sheng Xiuhai seems to have lost his errand, and he no longer has a serious errand, wandering around inside and outside and at home all day long.

He used to be a lieutenant in the Governor's Mansion, from the official position of the fifth grade.

The mother-in-law complained about the little brother-in-law, whether it was born by the mother-in-law or not, Dongying, the sister-in-law, was not easy to talk to, she just sat on the side with a smile and listened to Mrs. Sheng talk about the second master.

“…… Yuan Tiju, who went first, lifted that daughter, and the Marquis of Jianzhao Mansion originally wanted to take care of it, but Mrs. Yuan San cried and said that she was already a brother of Sanfu and didn't want the Yuan family to interfere. Mrs. Sheng mentioned the second master, and somehow, she remembered the incident of the Yuan family last year, and whispered to Dongyi, "Then Mrs. Yuan San took Miss Yuan and the child and left the Jingshi." The Marquis of Jianzhao's Mansion also cut off contact with them. ”

Yuan Tiju's daughter, that is, Yuan Puying, the child who was pregnant with the second master Sheng Xiuhai, and the second master wanted Sheng Changhou to help marry the girl who entered the door as a concubine.

How could it be that they are the clansmen of the Yuan family of the Marquis of Jianzhao.

Although they have long been intimate, when such a thing happens, others will still put the gossip on the head of the Marquis of Jianzhao's mansion. Marquis Jianzhao naturally did not agree with Yuan Puying entering the Sheng family as a concubine.

Moreover, the Marquis of Jianzhao is on the side of the Xue family of the Marquis of Zhenxian.

Although Dongyu married the Sheng family as his daughter-in-law, in the political arena of the DPRK and China, he never thought that the Sheng family and the Xue family were a faction.

"That kid ......" Dong Ying was a little surprised.

She thought that Miss Yuan and the child were gone......

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a departure from Jingshi.
