Chapter 66: Cats and Cats
"Well, that's all there is to it."
"Well, that's good, it's not too early today, so our brother and sister will go back first. Remember to come when you have time. Did you know? ”
Anan nodded, and saw the two brothers and sisters go first, the winter sky was dark early, and the lights were already on the street, Yuxiang was a little unconvinced, and said directly: "It's like where you can't buy a kitten, miss, I'll go to the market tomorrow to buy you a seventeen or eighteen one." ”
"Shhh, Miss Ben is here to see people, cats, what's so beautiful."
Yuxiang actually understood her young lady's thoughts, and said worriedly: "Miss, Young Master Ning is about to marry Miss Chang of the Prime Minister's family, if you are known by that person, the Prime Minister will definitely have trouble finding the master." ”
"It's nothing, I just said that I just went to Miss Ning's courtyard to see the kittens, what does it have to do with the young lady of the prime minister's family?"
Yuxiang nodded, and immediately stopped talking.
Early the next morning, when Ning Zimo woke up, she felt that something was wrong around her, and when she opened her eyes, she found that all the cats were surrounding her bedside, all looking at her directly.
Xiaoli didn't know when she would come back, but at the moment she was half-nested in her arms, looking at the group of cats and grandchildren below.
Yesterday, the clever little black cat also wanted to come to the bed, Xiao Li glanced at it and let it immediately retract, the corners of Ning Zimo's mouth twitched, she was not interested in participating in the matter of the cat occupying a piece of land, and after getting up, she said to the jade slave who was waiting on the side: "Go, set aside a room for these little ancestors." ”
"Miss, when the young master came back yesterday, he ordered someone to do this well, and specially built a lot of small frames, and also laid a lot of goose down cushions, saying that it was cold, and the Xinuan Pavilion also specially lit a fire, I am afraid that the kittens will freeze."
"Hmph, I've never seen him care so much about me."
Ning Zimo finished saying this before he continued to ask, "What about the others?" ”
"Oh, I heard that he went out early in the morning, and said that the prince had orders for him."
Ning Zimo nodded, and immediately didn't think about it anymore.
In the East Palace, the prince has been saying that he has not recovered until now, and Jiu Ze beside him persuaded with some concern: "His Royal Highness the Prince, you haven't been to the court for at least half a year, and most of the wind in the court is going to the side of the third prince, and Concubine Jing has given the queen a lot of anger in the palace, you can't be so sick anymore." ”
While teasing a colorful parrot in the cage, the prince said indifferently: "The third child wants that son, just give it to him." ”
"Your Royal Highness, if you let the queen hear this, the queen's master will have to be angry."
"God knows this, you know it, I know it, if my mother knows, then you must have done everything possible to spread this word to the ears of the mother."
Hearing this, Jiu Ze was frightened and his back was cold, and he hurriedly said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't scare the little one, the little one helps you take care of your favorite flowers and plants in the backyard all day long, but you don't have time to go to the palace to spread the word." ”
"It's not you, someone passed the matter of my East Palace to my mother's ears a few days ago, you, the leader of the East Palace, have to polish your eyes for this prince, understand?"
"Understood, understood. But I don't know what you're talking about, Prince? ”
"Hmph, this prince just asked Xuan to leave the national temple to take a look at the sixth brother and see how his body is recovering, I heard that he has been seriously ill, and my concern as a brother is naturally understandable, how did this matter reach the ears of the mother concubine, and the mother concubine also summoned the prince to the palace to reprimand him after knowing it, saying that he should not ask someone to see the sixth brother."
In fact, the prince only heard his father occasionally mention that today was the birthday of the sixth prince, and then the next day he asked Ning Xuan to leave the national temple to visit, and the prince trusted Ning Xuanli very much, so he asked Ning Xuanli to bring a lot of medicinal materials to the national temple.
To say that these six princes are really pitiful, they were born to be entangled by evil and seriously ill, and had to be sent to the national temple, so that the gods blessed them to grow up safely, and the biological mother of the six princes was sentenced to death by the queen because she gave birth to an evil person.
So the crown prince always has pity for this sixth emperor brother, even after so many years, although he has not visited it, he has not forgotten the six princes who are alone after all.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, it's not the slave who said you, back then, it was rumored in the palace and outside the palace that these six princes were haunted by evil spirits, and they were monsters that could eat people, although it was your own brother, but it was ......"
"Jiuze, Jiuze, this prince is not the kind of superficial person, the six princes have not sent a word back to the palace for so many years, and all the peace letters are all ghostwritten by the abbot Master Huiyuan, don't you think it's strange?"
"What does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince mean by this?"
I saw that the prince smiled and shook his head and said: "Even if the people in the entire capital forget the existence of the Sixth Emperor Brother, as long as the father does not forget, the Sixth Emperor Brother will definitely have a chance to return to the capital." ”
The crown prince who said this flashed in his mind when the emperor mentioned the six princes, and that kind of expression was wrapped in warmth and longing that the royal family had never had, so he thought about sending someone to take a look at the six emperor brothers, yes, how could the emperor let the royal heirs be left behind.
Thinking of this, he seemed to feel as if he had missed something, and asked, "By the way, at that time, was Ning Gongzi the evil of the Sixth Emperor Brother already healed?" ”
Jiu Ze nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, at that time, Ning Gongzi said that the six princes looked no different from ordinary people, but their bodies were slightly weaker, probably because of the perennial medication." I heard the queen say that the emperor asks the eunuch to send a lot of medicinal materials every year. ”
"That's weird, why doesn't my father take back the six emperor's brothers now, it stands to reason that my father should have brought people back and raised them in the palace."
"The holy will is unpredictable, but I heard that the queen said that the emperor has already chosen the house, and he has already asked the people of the Internal Affairs Office to repair the palace, maybe the palace is repaired, so he will take it back." Speaking of which, there are fifteen of the six princes. ”
"Where is the palace? Prince Ben is going to take a look now. ”
After the prince said this, he was about to raise his feet and go outside, but Jiu Ze immediately stopped in front of the prince, and was embarrassed: "Your Royal Highness the prince, I heard that the emperor handed over the task of repairing the palace to the five princes before. ”
The prince's eyes rolled, he really hid too much at home, he didn't know such a thing.
"The fifth prince is usually silent, and he doesn't like his father very much, why did his father give him such a task?"
"Prince, you forgot, last time the emperor was not feeling well, and he was sick for a few days, it was the five princes who got the secret medicine to make the emperor's body recover as before, and since then, the emperor has always summoned the five princes."
The master and servant were still muttering, the princess listened to the corner of the wall for a while, and when she heard the mention of the six princes, her eyes flashed with worry, the last time the prince went to order someone to see the matter of the six princes, she reported it to the palace, she guessed whether the prince had any doubts in her heart, so these days, I haven't seen the prince come to her courtyard.
She asked Yu Se beside her with some trepidation: "Yu Se." Do you think this prince has been particularly cold to me lately? Did he know about that? ”
The crown princess knew that the prince didn't like the people in the East Palace to tell her whereabouts and things to the palace, but when she thought that the momentum of the three princes was really enough, she had already surpassed the prince who had been calling herself sick, the prince was not in a hurry, but the queen and the princess were in a hurry.
"Master, you are relieved, not only did the prince not come to you, but the side concubine also didn't see the prince there, the prince may have been too tired recently, and he didn't want to be favored by the back house, don't think too much."
Although Yu Se said this, but the crown princess was still a little uneasy to hold the handkerchief in her hand, Yu Se saw his master like this, so he persuaded: "Master, the prince doesn't like flowers and plants the most, now the plum blossoms in our yard are just right, you might as well make an appointment with the prince tomorrow, the prince will definitely come." ”
The crown princess's eyebrows were a little sad, so she had to give up and said: "He's talking to Jiuze about things, it's not good for me to go up and disturb like this, the prince of the province thinks I'm not interested, let's go back." ”
Yu Se is actually reluctant to his master, before marrying the prince, his own master is also an arrogant young lady, now married to a woman, the mind is more and more only concerned about the prince alone, rarely take care of himself, this master is the royal daughter-in-law is noble, but Yu Se always feels that the master is missing something.
In the study of the Fifth Prince's Palace, the butler stepped forward with a booklet in his hand and said respectfully: "Lord, this is the silver money advance for the repair of the Sixth Prince's Mansion, please check it." The craftsmen said that if there was no objection, the ground would be broken the day after tomorrow. ”
Gong Xuanzheng is holding the list of all the civil and military scientific examinations in his hand and looking through it carefully, this is a secret, but the methods of these five princes have already touched the major civil and military officials of the imperial court, and it is not difficult to get such a list at all.
His gaze stayed on Ning Xuanli's name for a long time, and it wasn't until he heard this that he raised his head and said, "Bring it, this king will take a look first." ”
Gong Xuanzheng is doing things carefully, looking carefully at the page by page at the moment, until he finished reading it was already half an hour later, I saw him look in the direction of the national temple through the window, and said: "These are all good, the father gave a six-month deadline for repairs, although the year is almost down, the progress of the workers can not be left behind, and the six emperor brothers have been blessed by the Bodhisattva since childhood, remember to open a separate Buddha hall." ”
"Yes, you still think about it carefully, lord."
The housekeeper took the booklet and arched himself to prepare to go down, but he heard Gong Xuanzheng continue to say: "The Buddha hall has been built, and when the time comes, this king will personally go to the national temple to invite a Buddha to come over, you don't need to worry about this matter, and don't mention it to others for the time being." ”
"Yes."
"All right, you go down first, and the king will command you again if there is something to do."
When the housekeeper retreated, he found that Arnold was waiting outside the study with a food box, this Arnold has always personally cooked soup for Gong Xuanzheng every day since he lived in the palace, and it is not the same every day.
