Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Undercurrent Caused by Great White
Although Jiang Yashuang made love with his wife as usual after bathing that night, he didn't sleep all night after the incident, almost listening to the movement outside with his ears pricked up, hoping that someone would come over to tell the doctor about the diagnosis.
However, no one came to report until the middle of the night, and his mood became heavier and heavier.
The darkest black scene before dawn, Jiang Yashuang heard a faint rustling sound outside the window, it was the drizzle hitting the banana leaves, dense and soft, light and soft, usually listening to a leisurely artistic conception out of the dust, but at this moment it makes people feel anxious from the bottom of their hearts.
He couldn't help but relax with Qiu Yulan, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, tiptoed up and dressed, and ran to Qin Guogong's courtyard at night to inquire about the news in person.
At this time, the sky was dark and dreary, and the air dead wind lamps under the corridor were lit, but they were not far away, dim, and there was a heaviness of dragging mud and water.
With the same heavy heart, Jiang Yashuang asked Mrs. Tao who came out to receive him, forced her to be frightened, and asked about Qin Guogong's illness - fortunately, Mrs. Tao's first sentence was: "There is no worry about life, and you will be able to see things in a few days." ”
However, it can't be completely relaxed, because: "The doctor said that this is just the result of the diagnosis now, and the specific situation has to be made by your grandfather to take two days of medicine and have a follow-up consultation, so that it can be accurate." ”
"Grandfather is fine!" Jiang Yashuang breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then talked about letting Xin Fubing and Qiu Yulan go into the palace to live together.
Mrs. Tao agreed without much thought, and sent Mother Hu to the summer residence of the Hou Mansion in Jibei to greet Mrs. Ou.
Old Madam Ou actually didn't approve of Xin and Qiu going to the palace at this juncture, let alone staying in the palace.
It's just that although she is very strict with her juniors, she still respects her sister-in-law very much. In order not to sweep my sister-in-law's face, in the end, it was accurate.
Xin Fubing's grandmother doesn't like to move, she lives in the old house in Beijing all year round, and refuses to move no matter how hot or cold it is. But the old lady of the Xin family was very much in favor of Xin Fubing's summer vacation, the reason was that she felt sorry for her granddaughter, and actually hoped that Xin Fubing would be closer to her prominent maternal grandfather's family, so that even if her daughter-in-law was not in Beijing, she could ask for the Jiang family through her granddaughter.
In previous years, Xin Fubing came to Dizishan with her maternal uncle Mi, but this year she was repeatedly squeezed by Mi Yinyin, of course she refused to continue to be with Mi. This time, he followed Mrs. Ou - naturally she had to listen to the old lady.
Now Mrs. Ou promised to let her live in the palace, no matter whether Xin Fubing was happy or not, she had to pack her things.
And Qiu Lulan, who received her husband's letter, first went to see Xiao Tao and Sheng Shuishui, and brought a set of jewelry to see Heshuijin, and asked her to take care of her two sisters-in-law - arranged everything that could be arranged in the other courtyard, and then took the package that had been placed in advance and went to the palace with Xin Fubing.
Just like when they were in Beijing, the Jiang family's daughters followed up with their own courtyard when they entered the palace.
When they arrived at the queen, Jiang Yashuang, who had already taken the first step, came to ventilate, so after Queen Jiang exempted them, she directly said that their residence had been arranged - because Xin Fubing's complexion was very poor and her spirit was not good, the queen asked the palace people to take her to put things in place first, leaving Qiu Yulan to speak, and the top priority was naturally Qin Guogong's condition: "I heard that I fainted last night?" How so? How's it going now? ”
Qiu Yulan knew that the queen would not show it on her face, and she must have been in a hurry, so she hurriedly repeated what Jiang Yashuang told herself.
Empress Jiang pondered for a long time after hearing this, and said, "So, the diagnosis results may not be accurate today?" It's going to take two days to find out? ”
"According to Grandmother Nineteen, it is so." Qiu Yulan replied respectfully.
"Let's not talk about that, then." Empress Jiang could afford to put it down, so she immediately changed the subject, "Let's talk about Fu Bing, what's going on?" Didn't I tell you to go back and tell her to relax and recuperate? Why is it that these days, instead of looking better, this child has become more haggard? ”
"At a dinner party yesterday, the thirteenth sister-in-law made her angry, and she ran back to the house to cry!" Qiu Yulan looked helpless, "My niece chased after her outside, but she couldn't enter the house for a long time...... I think it's been sad all night, and this will come to the fourth aunt, and it hasn't eased up yet. ”
The queen had a headache when she heard this: "Earlier, this child was very knowledgeable, but he was not a weak person!" Why can't you even afford a word from the thirteenth daughter-in-law? ”
Qiu Yulan wanted to help Xin Fubing argue: "The thirteenth sister-in-law is the niece of the sixth aunt, yesterday at the banquet, the elders of the family were all there, and Cousin Xin didn't want to ruin everyone's interest, so she had to be patient." It's just that she didn't recruit anyone and didn't provoke anyone, and the thirteenth sister-in-law suddenly gave her such a look, and she was inevitably wronged......"
"Messy!" The queen snorted, shook her head, and said, "Although Weisan is only a prince now, you also know the future of the future!" It's not possible to be his wife without a little momentum, especially Princess Yan and Princess Zhun Zhou, which is the fuel-efficient lamp? I take a fancy to Fu Bing, I just think she is good, don't do anything next to you these days, just accompany her to mention something, don't weaken our family's momentum! ”
Qiu Yulan agreed, and said: "Nineteen said, since Cousin Xin is in the palace, if she can often meet the Seventh Prince, ......"
"I'll arrange this!" Empress Jiang nodded, and was about to say something, when Princess Yongfu walked in briskly, shouted "Queen Mother" first, followed to look at Qiu Yulan, and said with a smile: "Nineteenth cousin-in-law, you came just in time, I think the flowers in my yard are not good-looking, and I ask people to change a few kinds of plants, but I am a little unsure which ones to change, why don't you go and help me take a look?" ”
Empress Jiang has always been accustomed to her daughter, and when she heard this, she immediately released her: "Since this is the case, then you can go with Yongfu!" ”
After exiting the door, Qiu Yulan asked Princess Yongfu: "What kind of flowers does Your Highness want to change?" ”
"I don't care about that, but I'm just making up a reason to call you out." Unexpectedly, Princess Yongfu grimaced at her, but said happily, "There is something else to tell you: You know that my imperial grandmother plans to lower my Changping Imperial Sister to Guo Qingwu, right?" ”
Qiu Yulan was puzzled: "Yes...... Don't know what this has to do with me? "If she didn't know about this, how could she suggest that the Seventh Prince should organize this wedding? Could it be that something has changed now?
Princess Yongfu glanced at her: "But your cousin has been hooking up with Guo Qingwu so far...... Although I know that you have a bad relationship with her, I must not know about it, but if my imperial grandmother and Changping imperial sister know, it will inevitably anger you! So you better ask your cousin what the hell is going on, how can she win the Changping Imperial Sister who has the support of my imperial grandmother, and she is also a county lord in terms of identity, so she can't make an outer room for Guo Qingwu, right? What's more, even if she is willing to have no name and no share, my imperial grandmother and Changping Imperial Sister may not be able to tolerate her! ”
Qiu Yulan was taken aback: "Ning Tai, she still has contact with Guo Qingwu?!" Thinking that the queen didn't say anything about it just now, and didn't seem to know, he asked, "Where did the princess know?" ”
"Yesterday, I went to visit Xiao Su in the Puyang Palace, and he told me." Princess Yongfu pursed the corners of her lips, "Their courtyard is only separated from the courtyard where Guan Qingwu lives by a small stream, and the next person saw with their own eyes that after yesterday evening, the sky was almost dark, and the county lord of Ningtai was sent by Guan Qingwu and came out of the back door of the courtyard!" Xiao Su never lies, can there be any fake? ”
"How can I doubt the princess and the king of Puyang?" The corners of Qiu Yulan's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but regret that because of the many things, after mourning the old lady Qin, she didn't have a showdown with Qiu Jinzhu in time, and asked her what was going on with Qingwu - after that, she was busy and left this matter behind, and only then did she know that these two people had been going together in private for a whole year!
"It doesn't matter if the Empress Dowager Gu is angry with me, anyway, the identity of the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, it is difficult to make the Empress Dowager like it." She felt a mess, "I'm afraid that the fire will burn to my brother - this battle for the prince has been going on for more than a year, and although it has not yet reached the point of fighting in public, it is becoming more and more fierce day by day!" It's just that my brother is still in the filial piety period, and he has no official position, and it is inconvenient to hide next to Xue Xiang......"
After Princess Yongfu finished speaking, she didn't plan to leave just like that, but pulled her sleeve and asked, "I heard that the few dishes you made for Cousin Nineteen are very chic......"
"If the princess likes it, shall I make it for the princess to taste?" This is not a difficult thing, not to mention that she just passed on an important news to herself, Qiu Yulan was happy to coax her to be happy, and said happily.
"I know you won't say yes!" Princess Yongfu happily dragged her towards the place where she lived, and instructed the palace maid behind her, "Go and call Chunxiao over, there are more people!" ”
…… Half an hour later, Qiu Yulan said goodbye from Princess Yongfu and wanted to return to the courtyard arranged for her to live with Xin Fubing, but Chu Chunxiao, the county lord of Duanrou, chased after her: "Nineteen aunts, please stay!" ”
Qiu Yulan stopped in surprise, Chu Chunxiao ran to her, and asked a little embarrassedly: "How many dishes my uncle made today, I think my father and mother may like it, I don't know if you can point me out?" ”
"What's so hard about that?" Qiu Yulan thought that she was shouting that she was something, and smiled when she heard this, "You want to be free, let's talk while walking?" ”
Chu Chunxiao was overjoyed and thanked him again and again...... Qiu Yulan instructed her on her cooking skills, and she couldn't help but say a few words of greetings to the prince and his wife of Qiyang County. At the mention of this, Chu Chunxiao's bright face suddenly cast a shadow, and sighed: "My father has not been in good health recently, and my mother is very sad, and she often asks the imperial doctor to come to the house for diagnosis and treatment, but the improvement is not very ......."
Qiu Yulan knew that this Qiyang County King was congenitally deficient and could not be reversed by manpower, but this would only be able to choose good words to comfort - the two talked while walking, and saw that they had arrived at the place where Qiu Yulan and Xin Fubing lived, and before they entered, they saw that by the flower garden, Xin Fubing was holding Dabai in his arms, and Nianxue was lying on his stomach, just talking to a girl with Yan Dan's green temples.
Take a closer look, that girl is Princess Changping!
"Why is this master here?" Seeing this, both Qiu Lulan and Chu Chunxiao were slightly stunned.
However, Qiu Yulan was even more surprised: "Cousin Xin is in such a bad mood that she doesn't even bother to be perfunctory in front of the queen...... How could he come out of the house and talk to Princess Changping? ”
Princess Changping and Xin Fubing also saw them, and the princess turned her head and took the initiative to beckon: "Lord Qiu, Duanrou, are you back?" ”
Qiu Yulan has the title of the county lord, and it is said that after she marries Jiang Yashuang, Jiang Yashuang should be renamed County Horse. But the Jiang family is now powerful, and the Xihe Wangfu is not Qiu Yulan's backer, so Qiu Jinglan, Ruan Ciyi, and Zhou's mother ...... These mothers and family members all think that this kind of false name is nothing to fight for, it is better to call the young lady Qiu Yulan according to the name of the Jiang family, and call Jiang Yashuang the son, so as to please the Jiang family's generation.
However, outsiders can't control it, and they don't force it.
She promised to take Chu Chunxiao over with a smile to greet them, and was about to greet them, but Princess Changping looked at the big white in Xin Fubing's arms, and said with a smile: "The big white looks like the 'bottle' raised in the palace, and I think at the beginning, the palace actually wanted a pure white mandarin duck eye, but unfortunately the one that had been set in the Tao family died before it came out of the nest, and the palace had to retreat to the second best place and picked another one of other grades...... Lord Qiu, I don't know where you just came from? ”
