Chapter 257: Mother's Choice
In February, the 14th returned to Beijing to offer prisoners, and by the way, with the help of Kangxi's anti-enemy tactics medicine and dietary therapy, he also behaved very appropriately during the grand ceremony of sacrificing prisoners when he returned from the 14th, without a trace of discomfort at all. Because he has long been freed from the restraint of drugs, he seems very calm, no longer soaring at every turn, and seems to be in good spirits.
After the fourteenth finished the scene, he was busy going into the palace to see Concubine De, and just after Su Li recovered from her illness, she was taken into the palace by Concubine De to recuperate, and she has been living in the palace.
"The little fourth sister-in-law is also there?" Lao Thirteen saw that Su Li also gave Su Li a big gift with joy, and Su Li hurriedly returned the gift.
"Well, after the fourteenth master went to lead the troops, Niangniang often felt lonely, and Li'er was only an idler, so she came over to eat with Niangniang." After the salute, Su Li and the old fourteen had fun.
Although he knew that Lao Fourteen was Yinzhen's biggest opponent, after a few years of military career, he had ground his original little creamy taste into a slight maroon, and with the golden age of thirty, his whole body was full of masculine beauty, which was very eye-catching. And at this time, he had a friendly smile, and the standardized etiquette made Su Li feel happy. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, why don't I say that the old fourteen will be a man? Yinzhen is really incomparable in this aspect!
Although the fourteenth is in the army, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know anything, Su Li's entry into the palace is the role of the fourteenth Fujin, after eating in the fourth master's mansion that day, the fourteenth Fujin entered the palace and said how the Wulanala clan treated Su Li's words and deeds, Concubine De didn't say anything at the time, but after a while, she heard that Su Li was better, so she asked people to take her and her heart and liver into the palace to raise.
Later, the Ulanala clan entered the palace several times to pick up people, but they were not answered. Later, Yinzhen also entered the palace to pick up people, but she couldn't even enter the door, and directly asked Su Li to see Yinzhen, saying that she was uncomfortable and didn't think that it would make her angry. After receiving the letter from home, Fourteen almost laughed.
The Fourth Master's Mansion, which was originally smooth sailing at the old man's place, was suddenly disgraced by this little thing in Concubine De. I believe that Concubine De should have told the old man Kangxi that even the four blessings, who have always been kind and virtuous, are jealous, which means that the fourth child has no talent for governing the family. If you can't even manage your family, how can you manage the world.
Concubine De saw that Fourteen was naturally crying and laughing as if she had taken a tonic, but Su Li could understand, so she didn't bother to follow it, so she silently withdrew and discussed the lunch menu with the inner kitchen. went back to his room, Yinzhen also came, playing with his heart and liver, and the baby and Beibei also followed behind.
"Still won't you go home?" Yinzhen said angrily when she saw Su Li, the news she got from Kangxi seemed to be that Concubine De was very dissatisfied with the Wulanala clan, saying that she didn't see it clearly back then and was deceived by the Wulanala clan
"I don't know, it's strange this time, my mother doesn't want to talk to me about it. When my sister entered the palace to ask for peace, the mother was also faint. The last time I came to report the good news, I said that my sister gave birth to a little brother, and she didn't bother to answer. Su Li was also puzzled, now she is very comfortable living in the palace, but it will feel very strange. It seems that Concubine De was concerned about her leg disease at the beginning, but now she is more just disgusted with the people of the Fourth Master's Mansion.
"Did the mother say anything when the Ulanala clan entered the palace?"
"Nope. It just seems a little cold. But that's what the mother is. But last time the little brother was born. As usual, the mother will give me the key to pick some reward land. She didn't mention it. Su Li also seemed to be very annoyed. If you go on like this, the basin will really be buckled on your head. The backyard of the Fourth Master's Mansion is afraid that he will think that he doesn't know what he has sued in front of Concubine De.
"Will it be ......?"
"You don't think I'm suing my mother, do you?" Su Li jumped up. She is still afraid that Yinzhen will think the same way.
"Of course not. How could I not know your character. I doubt so. The mother did this on purpose. So that everyone thinks that this is your work. Yinzhen glanced at Su Li. In fact, after listening to Kangxi, he was so suspicious. The Ulanala clan didn't say anything. But Nian was angry that he had not been rewarded. thinks that this is Su Li making a stalk from it. Now it has been confirmed from Su Li's mouth. And that's it.
Su Li was stunned. Taken aback. Is this the land that has always been kind to herself? Let the people of the Fourth Master Mansion misunderstand Su Li. And keeping Su Li in the palace will also make the old man feel that he is not good at governing his family?
Yinzhen is also thinking about the same question, yes, because a Su Li has made the old man feel like this twice, which makes Yinzhen have a headache.
Yinzhen just left the child behind, and kowtowed to Concubine De in the middle of Concubine De's courtyard and left silently. Fourteen was about to chase out, but was stopped by Concubine De.
"E-niang, what are you doing here?" Lao Fourteen didn't expect Concubine De to do this, just for one Su Li, isn't it a big fuss?
"Isn't he filial? I'm fighting for him! ”
"E-niang! The fourth sister-in-law is your heart, but the fourth brother is your own child. Fourteen thought the old lady was confused.
Concubine De didn't speak, of course she knew that Yinzhen was her own
, but on the day of the fourteenth expedition, Lao Jiu was also diligent, and T3 was that if Yinzhen was in power, the fourteenth would be dangerous, and Lao Jiu was committed to how to push the fourteenth to the front.
Concubine De is not a fool, she will not change her position immediately because of Lao Jiu's words, but how much will be affected, for the Eight Masters Party where Lao Jiu is located, Lao Jiu is a money bag and a think tank, saying that it is the Eight Masters Party, but in fact, it is the Nine Masters Party, was he the one who pushed the Eighth to the throne back then? Now that the eighth child has fallen, the ninth child naturally has to support another one, and the old ten is impossible, only one of the two sons who are currently hot.
The fourth child has always been a lonely minister, but the fourteenth has always been close to the ninth child, which is logical. He didn't believe that the fourth child would do anything to the old fourteenth, but it was very tempting to let the old fourteenth ascend the throne.
The fourteenth saw that Concubine De didn't speak, and in a fit of anger, he also brushed his sleeves away, and now the fourth child is moved by the old man with sincerity and filial piety, and now the old lady has nothing to find fault with, and the old man is not really confused, but I'm afraid that the old lady will say, and the idea left to the old man is that the fourth is filial piety and moved the sky!
At night, only Su Li and the children accompanied Concubine De to eat, and the baby also lived in the palace with Beibei, Su Li asked them to sleep with her heart and liver, and she was used to grooming Concubine De.
"Did I really do something wrong?" Concubine De silently looked at herself in the mirror, and for the first time she was no longer sure.
"What?" Su Li wasn't quite sure what Concubine De wanted to say.
"Isn't it too much for the fourth and the Ulanala clan?"
"You are Eniang, your son and daughter-in-law have a temper, who dares to say that you are excessive?" Su Li laughed.
"No, you can't do anything in the royal family. I'm afraid that some people will say that I am biased, and they will also say that you will sue me and trap the fourth child and the Ulanala clan and injustice. Concubine De smiled bitterly.
"Slaves and maids are not afraid, slaves and maids are in debt, don't worry, until your temper is over." Su Li was still laughing.
Concubine De laughed and shook her head, "I'm biased, right?" ”
"The slave maid heard the foreign doctor say, people's hearts are biased, and people who grow in the middle are rare, and then, how can there be complete justice, in small things, the slave maid will let the baby let the heart and liver, but when there is really something, the slave and the maid will still give up their heart and liver to the baby."
"You!" Concubine De shook her head and sighed softly, "But if you take 10,000 steps back, you still hope that the fourth child will succeed, and you won't hope that it will be the fourteenth." ”
"Yes! If the fourth master is successful, the fourteenth master can still live, but the successful one is the fourteenth master, and our father and the baby are dead ends. Su Li smiled bitterly.
Su Li obviously felt that Concubine De had become stiff under her hands.
"No, the old fourteen still say that I did something wrong. He is good from being careful, not to mention ......" Concubine De can't go on, she has already seen a lot of life and death in the palace, thinking of Lao Jiu's cunning eyes when chatting with him, yes, he is so stupid! Fourteen was arched to the throne by them, even if the old fourteen refused to do so in the future, but how could they tolerate the existence of the fourth and capable babies.
Su Li didn't say anything more, silently waited for Concubine De to lie down, gently covered her with a quilt, and put a wet towel in the tent, Concubine De would be phlegm. Later, it turned out that it was because the old lady was afraid of the cold, so she put the stove in the room and closed the doors and windows tightly. Fortunately, the charcoal used in the palace is good, and there are smoke pipes, otherwise the old lady would not only be hot and phlegm. So Su Li would put a wet cloth at night and let her drink some moisturizing fruit honey water, and she was much better these days.
Concubine De quietly watched Su Li do these things, the fourteenth has been accustomed to having only herself in her heart since she was a child, as long as she doesn't agree with a word, she will go away today, and although the fourth is not so pleasing, but after so many years, she has never gone against her own will, even if the fourteenth wants to go to the northwest, isn't it the result of the fourth child's efforts to care about himself! Su Li is too, knowing that she is biased, but she still takes care of herself so dedicatedly. Maybe that's really the case, the fourth looks cold, but the fourth is on top, but the fourteenth can live, but in the other direction, the fourteenth is on top, but they have to be restrained by the nineth, the fourth, the baby, and Su Li, can they live?
"Li'er, I support the fourth, can he guarantee that he will keep the fourteenth family?" Concubine De said suddenly.
"Huh?!" Su Li didn't expect Concubine De to suddenly ask this, and it took a while to understand what Concubine De meant, laughed, sat down on the couch gently, took Concubine De's hand, and put it on her cheek.
"I promise they'll all be alive." Su Li sighed lightly, Fourteen lived longer than Yinzhen, and later the baby gave Fourteen freedom, she could only ensure that the old Fourteen lived.
Concubine De nodded and closed her eyes. Su Li sighed, the old lady had already seen the form clearly, so she understood her position, no matter how partial she was, she also kissed her mother, she didn't have the courage to see her two sons killing each other, so she made the most helpless but also understood that it was the right choice.
