Chapter 476: Succession

Mrs. Xue, Rong Hua, and Xue Yishuang sat together in front of the old lady's bed.

I don't know if I was too worried about Xue Mingrui, the old lady became dizzy and vomited several times.

Rong Hua ordered his subordinates to go out to invite Langzhong, but they were blocked back by the officers and soldiers at the door, and the entire Xue family was surrounded by water, and even the small gate on the south side was also sent more manpower, so it seemed that no matter what, he couldn't get out.

Old Madam Xue became weaker and weaker, and Mrs. Xue shed tears anxiously, "I knew that I shouldn't tell the old lady about the outside world." "But how can this kind of thing be hidden, there is no news from Ming Rui when he enters the palace, and I don't know what the situation is in the palace, the people who patrol the camp interrupt their banquet, and when the guests in the palace leave, the entire Xue Mansion is immediately taken care of.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Xue couldn't sit still anymore, "What should I do now?" ”

Rong Hua got up to comfort Mrs. Xue, "Don't worry, if there is a change in the palace, there will be vigilance in Beijing, if something happens to the Hou Ye, the officers and soldiers outside will already break in, Niang have a good rest, and I will find a way to invite Langzhong." ”

Mrs. Xue's face was full of tears, "How can there be other ways." ”

Rong Hua's voice was soft, "There will always be a way, my mother is at ease." ”

Xue Yishuang also came up to support Mrs. Xue, "Mother will listen to sister-in-law." ”

Mrs. Xue nodded, and just sat down and suddenly remembered Brother Qi, "What about Brother Qi?" Did you sleep? Without waiting for Rong Hua to reply, "I'll go over and take a look." ”

Rong Hua's unnatural expression flashed, "Brother Qi has already slept, my mother is still staying in the old lady's room, I'll go and take a look." ”

Mrs. Xue shook her head, "I can't see Brother Qi for a while, and I panicked a lot, especially when Ming Rui is not in the mansion, especially Brother Qi is even more sloppy." ”

Rong Hua stepped forward and said: "It's late at night and the wind is strong, my mother is still in the old lady's room, and I will go over with the princess of the county." ”

Xue Yishuang was stunned for a moment and immediately said, "Yes, mother, grandmother can't do without people here, I'm young and I'm afraid of mistakes and omissions, or my mother is here, I followed my sister-in-law to see Brother Qi." ”

Mrs. Xue sighed at this time, "It's okay, you used to tell the nurse not to freeze Brother Qi in the cold weather." ”

Mrs. Xue sat down, and Rong Hua and Xue Yishuang went out in their clothes.

Out of the old lady's courtyard and walked to the cuizhu road, Rong Hua stopped and said in a low voice: "Brother Qi is not in the house." ”

Xue Yishuang was surprised, "This ...... When was it? ”

The lights were dim, Rong Hua's face was unclear, and his voice was still as steady as usual, "I asked my mother's family to take Brother Qi out of the house, in case anything goes wrong, at least Brother Qi can escape," he said, and took Xue Yishuang's hand, "Even if something happens to the Hou Ye, it will not be connected to the princess of the county, and Brother Qi will be handed over to the princess to take care of at that time." As a wife, she is willing to advance and retreat with Xue Mingrui, but as a mother, she will do her best to protect her son's safety.

Xue Yishuang pursed her lips and nodded, "Sister-in-law, rest assured, as long as I am here, I will definitely protect Brother Qi." ”

Rong Hua breathed a sigh of relief, "I didn't say anything about my mother, but I was afraid that my mother would think too much." ”

Mother is a person who will be scared when she hears the wind and grass, now that my grandmother is sick and my brother's situation is unknown, if I know that my sister-in-law arranged for Brother Qi to leave the house, I can't say what I would think, Xue Yishuang said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, everything has me." ”

Xue Yishuang pretended to go to see Brother Qi, Rong Hua returned to the room and changed his clothes, put on a hat of jujube yarn and instructed Su Changchang's family, "Go find a few mothers-in-law and go out with me." ”

Su Changjiu's face changed, "The young lady wants to go out?" But ...... outside."

Rong Hua frowned, "I know that there are officers and soldiers outside, and the old lady's illness can't help but invite Lang Zhong into the mansion." I will stand inside the second gate, you go and tell the officers and soldiers at the door that no one in our family will go out, let them go to the eldest princess to invite Langzhong, if the eldest princess's illness is delayed, they will not be able to explain in the future. ”

Su Changchang's family hurriedly said: "The slave and maid are going to find someone." ”

Rong Hua stood in front of the door of the weeping flowers, and heard Su Changchang's family pleading, "The eldest princess's illness cannot be delayed, and the troublesome official is accommodating, as long as you invite a Lang Zhong into the mansion...... You didn't see that the townsman had come over in person, and the eldest princess couldn't explain anything to the Hou Ye. ”

The officer and soldier looked out hesitantly.

Su Changjiu's family took the opportunity to stuff the silver over, "As long as you go and say it." ”

The officer frowned, pushed the silver away, and closed the door again.

Su Changjiu's family was deflated, "What can I do about the young lady?" ”

Rong Hua looked at the closed door, now she had no other way but to wait, Rong Hua turned her head to look at Su Changjiu, "Knock on the door, just say I want to see the adult who leads the team." "The imperial court has not yet made a clear decree, who knows whether the Xue family will be honored or disgraced after tonight, she will throw this problem to the people outside to think about it, she just wants to force them to make concessions, she doesn't care what happens in the future, now this is still Wumuhou Mansion.

After a stick of incense, the door opened again, and the people who came couldn't help but be slightly surprised when they saw Rong Hua standing in front of the door, and saluted Rong Hua, "I have already asked people to invite Langzhong, please go back." ”

Rong Hua breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile, this thing was done.

Lang Zhong quickly came in from the main entrance, carefully checked the old lady's pulse, and applied a needle.

The old lady on the bed slowly woke up.

The old lady opened her eyes and looked at everyone, and quickly frowned.

Mrs. Xue hurriedly said, "Mother, how is it?" Do you feel uncomfortable in anything? ”

The old lady's pale lips moved, "My head hurts, take the pill in the box and eat one." ”

Mrs. Xue looked at Lang Zhong inquiringly.

Na Langzhong said: "This secret medicine can't be used more. ”

The old lady shook her head, "It's been half a lifetime, and I'm afraid that it won't work in these two days?" Even if you can survive today, it doesn't hurt. ”

Mrs. Xue nodded when she heard this, and Mother Li hurriedly went to the box to get the medicine bottle.

Ten pills the size of millet grains were held in the mouth, and after a while, they turned into fishy bitter water, and the headache was immediately relieved a lot.

Lang Zhong prescribed the medicine and was led down to rest.

The old lady looked at the people in front of the bed and waved her hand, "Sit down, I'll be fine for a while." ”

Everyone sat down, and the old lady asked Rong Hua, "Is there any news in the palace?" ”

Rong Hua shook his head.

The old lady sighed, "The dying breath is always hard to swallow, and the common people still have a lot of worries, not to mention the emperor," said the corner of his mouth and showed a smile, "I am happier than the emperor, I have lived many more years, not to mention, at this time, the younger generations around me will try their best to meet my requirements, so that I can go safely, the emperor is different, as long as you close your eyes, the power in your hands will be given to others, unwilling and uneasy, the people around you are staring at him and looking forward to him letting go, counting us, not waiting for him to do a big job." Then the old lady coughed.

Mrs. Xue stepped forward and patted the old lady's back.

The old lady nodded, "It's okay." Lying down for so long...... Now, it's ...... It's a lot clearer," the old lady stretched out her hand to Rong Hua and Xue Yishuang, "Come and sit, it's been a long time...... Didn't follow...... You juniors laughed, did the peony flowers bloom outside? ”

Rong Hua smiled: "This year, the cold hasn't started yet." ”

The old lady smiled and glanced at Rong Hua, "I asked someone to make you a peony gauze skirt, and you can wear it in a few days." When I was younger, I liked to wear bright colors, but you don't like it at this time...... Color...... It's heavy ......."

Rong Hua smiled sincerely, "The old lady looks good in bright colors." ”

"It's you who are restrained," the old lady patted Rong Hua's hand, "In the future, you will be in charge of this big family, and you can't be polite when you should be public, your mother-in-law knows that your housekeeper is hard, and she won't care if you overshadow her." ”

She has always been cautious since she was reborn, and besides, there are elders in the house, it's not good to be too public, there must always be rules. But she did want to add two bright colors lately.

Xue Yishuang said with a smile: "My sister-in-law wants to make a gauze skirt, but it doesn't look as good as my grandmother's makeup skirt......"

The old lady laughed, "I knew you were all looking at the good things in my room. ”

Everyone talked for a while, and the old lady remembered, "There are two willow trees in the south courtyard, I see that they are big enough, it is better to do ballast around the rockery, I used to like such a place in the palace, and in winter it snows and stands on the top of the mountain to watch the palace people build snowmen, I think Brother Qi must like it, when he was a child, he often took him to climb high, so that his horizons were broadened, and he was not restrained in what he did." ”

The old lady said every word as if she was explaining the aftermath, and Mrs. Xue's eyes were red when she heard this, "Yes." ”

The old lady smiled slightly, "These days I think of a lot of things in the past, the horse said that after he gave office, he raised a few sheep at home, and when he had grandchildren and granddaughters, he would take the sheep over, and the milk that was squeezed out at that time was hot, just for the children to eat." At the time, I laughed at how he thought of such a thing, and now I think about how nice it would be if it were. Retreat bravely from the rapids, protect yourself wisely, and think of a way back for yourself as a minister of the Son of Heaven. ”

Rong Hua nodded, it was not easy for the old lady to teach her to be able to get out of the way. It's just that with Xue Mingrui's temperament, I don't know if I can stop and live a comfortable life for a few days.

The old lady closed her eyes and fell asleep in the blink of an eye, then woke up again in a blink of an eye, "Go and light the sandalwood, I want to copy some Buddhist scriptures." ”

Mrs. Xue and Rong Hua helped Mrs. Xue up and leaned on the pillow, and Mother Li brought the incense burner and the bookcase.

Rong Hua said softly: "I will copy the scriptures in small letters, if the old lady is relieved, let me come."

The old lady coughed twice, "It's okay, copy more these days, and it will be good to extinguish the injustice." As he spoke, he twisted the Buddha beads in his hand, and carefully seemed to be able to touch the Buddha beads clearly.

The maid waited for the pen and ink, and Rong Hua sat down to copy.

Rong Hua wrote more than a dozen pieces of paper, the sky was already bright, and Mrs. Niu hurriedly came in from outside and said: "There is movement outside the young lady, I heard that the Hou Ye is back, but the guards at the door are not allowed to enter the door, and the Hou Ye said that the new monarch has succeeded to the throne." ”

Rong Hua's hands trembled, not because she was afraid, she was just happy for Xue Mingrui, this day he had finally waited, and the people he followed were all over the world.
