Chapter 219: The Gathering of Storms (8)
In the blink of an eye, we have entered June.
It's the height of summer, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter every day.
Yu Yu has always been afraid of heat, Rao is room with a golden basin to hold icebergs, Luohan bed with a jade mat, she is still so hot that there is nowhere to hide, I can't wait to soak in the water every day.
Li Ruilai replied to Yu Yu, and saw that Yu Yu was sitting on the Luohan bed, holding a handful of broken ice cubes in his hand, and couldn't help laughing: "Concubine Fang, the Canal Palace is at the water's edge, there is a large poplar forest, and it is cool there!"
Yu Yu reached out and touched the shade of the tree sleeping behind her, and said in a low voice: "In case Han Qing also goes......"
Li Rui stared at Yu Yu: "Concubine Fang, I'll choose some masters of the Feather Guard to protect you!"
Yu Yu shook his head: "I'll think about it again!"
Li Rui looked at Yu Yu's already high bulging abdomen, and then looked at Yu Yu's temples that were wet from sweating, and said, "I'll let someone send some ice in!"
Yu Yu couldn't help laughing: "There is enough ice in this room, but I am very strange this year, especially afraid of heat!"
Li Rui looked around and said, "Put some ice under Luohan's bed!"
Yu Yu picked up a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from the corners of his forehead, and said with a smile: "Arrange it as you like!"
As soon as Li Rui commanded people to send some ice in, Li Fanxing came in with Bai Yuming.
Yu Yu saw that Bai Yuming's face was full of sweat, his skin became more and more crystalline, and his eyebrows were wet, so he smiled and said, "Big brother, you sit down and rest first, I have a freshly iced watermelon here!"
Her eldest brother is as afraid of heat as her, and when she was a child, her brother and sister always went to the river to swim in the summer to relieve the heat, and they both practiced a good water nature.
Bai Yuming took the wet hand towel handed over by Ye Bi and wiped his sweat, and then said: "Your Majesty issued a decree this morning, asking Gui Wengui to choose a concubine for the prince!"
Li Rui listened, and looked at Yu Yu with a slight expression.
Yu Yu was very calm, after all, the matter of giving her as a gift to Han Qing was going to happen, and it was actually expected to choose a concubine for Lin Jia.
She stroked Lin Yin's little chubby feet, and said with a smile: "This thing will happen sooner or later, I have been mentally prepared, we don't have to do anything, let's talk about it when the prince comes back!"
Bai Yuming saw that Yu Yu was really calm, so he breathed a sigh of relief, sat down for a while, and when Lin Yin woke up, he and Li Rui took Lin Yin out to play for a while.
Seeing that Lin Yin was sweating profusely, they loosened Lin Yin back, and he left with Li Rui.
Yu Yu was resting there, and when she saw that she had sent out a clean and beautiful little fairy child and taken back a dirty and sweaty little mud monkey, she couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly instructed the female doctor Jin and the two nurses to bathe Lin Yin.
When Lin Yin was taking a bath in the east wing, Yu Yu was a little relieved, so he helped Hanlin to go to the east wing slowly.
In the north dark room of the east wing, there is a large red golden lotus pot, which is filled with warm boiled water, and Ah Yin is sitting in the lotus pot with his legs open, grabbing the mint leaves floating on the water.
Seeing Yu Yu come in, he called out loudly "Niang", and grabbed the green mint leaves in both hands to give Yu Yu.
Yu Yu saw that his hair and eyebrows were wet, his phoenix eyes were black, he was cute everywhere, and he was not good-looking everywhere, so he was extremely happy in his heart, walked over and bent down with difficulty, touched Lin Yin's soft little chubby face, but wondered in his heart: Is Lin Jia also like this when he was a child?
Lin Yin was particularly attached to Yu Yu, and when he saw Yu Yu's hand stretched out, he immediately leaned over and rubbed his face against Yu Yu's hand, like a little milk dog.
Yuyu's heart was warmed by the shade of the forest, and she let the shade rub in the palm of her hand.
She had already discovered that Lin Yin, like Lin Jia, liked to stick to her next to her and like her to touch them.
What a father and son!
Han Zhaolin went to another industry by the canal with her three sisters-in-law these days and just returned home.
As soon as she and her three sisters-in-law returned home, they went to the main room of the inner courtyard to greet Mrs. Han.
Mrs. Han saw that Han Zhaolin was a little tanned, so she smiled and said, "Why are you tanned?"
Mrs. Han immediately smiled and said: "Mother doesn't know, these days, the girls of Gui Mansion, Ouyang Mansion, Qian Mansion and Zhu Mansion are also in the canal to escape the summer, and the sixth sister often gets together with them, or admires the flowers and walks, or writes poems and writes, or becomes a female celebrity, and she tans without paying attention!"
Mrs. Han nodded and said, "There is still a month to go, and you can still raise it back if you take care of it!"
Han San's wife, Liu, was the most intelligent, and immediately smiled: "Mother, is there something extremely important in a month?"
Mrs. Han nodded, looked at Han Zhaolin lovingly, and said softly: "Your Majesty has made a decree today, to choose a concubine for Prince He, and the unmarried girls from the fourteen to seventeen-year-old families of officials above the fourth rank will all enter the palace to run for election, and our Zhaolin will naturally go for election too!"
Mrs. Han San and Han Zhaolin are close in age, and their relationship is also the best, knowing that Han Zhaolin likes Jingzhao Yin Shaoyin Bai Yuming, she hurriedly looked at Han Zhaolin, saw that her face was pale, and said busily: "Mother, didn't Lord Jingzhao Yin Shaoyin Bai invite Lord Yang Xin Yang to be a matchmaker?" How are you—"
Before Mrs. Han San could finish speaking, Mrs. Han's face changed and she interrupted Mrs. Han San sharply: "Shut up!"
Mrs. Han San was taken aback, hurriedly lowered her head and replied "yes", and retreated, not daring to speak.
Seeing this, Mrs. Han and Mrs. Han hurriedly said: "Third brother and sister, I'm afraid that the sixth sister is tired along the way, you can take the sixth sister back to rest!"
Han Zhaolin's eyes were already moist.
She plucked up the courage to walk up to Mrs. Han, curtsied, and then looked at Mrs. Han, her lips trembled slightly, and her voice trembled: "Mother, you ...... You don't answer ...... Promise me...... Promise me to agree to Bai Yuming's marriage proposal? ”
Mrs. Han immediately withdrew from the maid in the house, and then said: "On the one hand, the prince, and on the other hand, the peasant son who climbed up by relying on his sister to be a concubine, don't you have a long brain, you won't choose?"
Han Zhaolin's face turned red, and tears rolled down one by one: "Mother, what I like is Bai Yuming!" There is only the white concubine in the eyes of the prince, and the last time I saw with my own eyes that the prince was a little unhappy, but as soon as the white concubine went, the eyes of the prince and the prince were full of smiles, and they were about to overflow! ”
Hearing Han Zhaolin say, "As soon as Concubine Bai left, Prince He's eyes were full of smiles", Mrs. Han, Mrs. Han, Mrs. Han and Mrs. Han San all felt funny, they really couldn't imagine the appearance of smiling at Concubine Bai with the prince who had always been cold and silent.
Mrs. Han said in a deep voice: "You were born in the Han family, the family has raised you for so many years, and it is time for you to return, okay, this matter is irreversible, don't say it again, you go back!"
Han Zhaolin glanced at her mother deeply, knowing that her mother's plan had been decided, and it would be futile for her to struggle at this time, so she replied "yes" and slowly withdrew.
Mrs. Han looked at Mrs. Han San: "You go and accompany your sixth sister and persuade her well!"
Mrs. Han San agreed and went out as well.
When the curtain of Bizhu "jingle bell" hit and drooped, Mrs. Han sighed and said to the two daughters-in-law: "Among the ladies who are eligible to participate in the election this time, the highest background is Zhaolin, the Gui Li and Gui Yan sisters of the Gui family, as well as the three daughters of the Jiang Mansion, the concubine is afraid that she will be selected from them, the Jiang Mansion is the foreign family of the prince, Gui Dashuai is now fighting with the prince in Liaozhou, only our family is more distant from the prince, and our family has to hurry up!"
Second Mrs. Han thought for a moment and said tentatively: "Mother, don't think I'm vulgar, I heard that Prince He is quite fond of Concubine Bai, let's try to envelop Concubine Bai and let her blow the pillow wind to Prince He, maybe the sixth sister will be chosen!"
Mrs. Han frowned and pondered, nodded after a while, and said: "Anyway, it is impossible for Concubine Bai to be a concubine, so it is better to follow her way, as for the fact that after the matter is completed, Zhaolin is the princess's concubine, she is a concubine, and it is not easy to control her?" A glass of poisoned wine sent her away! ”
The evening was cooler, and Yu Yu took Lin Yin to take a nap and was dressing up, so Mrs. Helian and Mrs. Lan came over.
Yu Yu hadn't seen them for a few days, and she was missing them a little, so she was very happy when she saw them, and said with a smile: "Since you're here, let's have dinner with me first!"
Lady Lan and Lady Helian gladly agreed.
Their husbands are now fighting with the prince in Liaozhou, and there is no news at all, so they made an appointment to come over together, thinking of asking Concubine Bai about the news of the battlefield in Liaozhou.
Yu Yu was extremely smart, before they could speak, they knew their intentions, and ordered Jin'er to call Li Hanxing in, and instructed: "You go to the outer study and ask Ah Cheng to see if the prince has a letter!"
After Li Hanxing went out, Yu Yu said with a smile: "I have already ordered someone to set up a bisha tent in the bamboo forest, and the three of us will listen to music and eat wine in the bisha tent tonight!"
Mrs. Lan smiled and clapped her hands: "Concubine Fang is really kind, take us to have a look!"
