Chapter Eighty-Six: Out of the Cabinet (II)
"By heaven's command. The emperor said. The country thinks about the longevity of entrepreneurship, and it should be a code of retribution. The achievements of the people and ministers to build auxiliary countries should be given the grace of Xijue. The grand rules of this exhortation are honest and ancient. Yongping Marquis, the general of the expedition to the west, Xu Lingyi has been in office for many years, loyal and inspiring, and his achievements are remarkable, and he is allowed to be called Bi Liang's talent, and he lives up to the choice of his relatives and talents, and is crowned with the title of young master from the second prince. Originally matched with Luo, Xiangfu Ke Harmonious, IKEA fan, posthumously named Mrs. Zhenshun Hou. Stepwife Luo, soft and cautious, Mrs. Feng Yipin......"
Eleven Niang lay quietly on the ground, but her mind was spinning rapidly.
The highest official position of the Great Zhou Dynasty is three public and three orphans, the three public is a product, and the three orphans are a product...... It was not that he sealed the three princes and three orphans in one go, but that he sealed a prince and a young master...... Can it be understood in this way, the emperor still wants to use Xu Lingyi - if the third duke is sealed, once the war resumes, Xu Lingyi will no longer be able to lead troops to fight. Moreover, there is no re-sealing, so that the successors in the future will receive Xu Lingyi as a reward......
She couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
Now, the safety of the Xu family is the most important!
The feudal system of sitting together is not fun.
As for the gift of Yuan Niang and the seal himself...... I'm afraid it's compensation for not giving Xu Lingyi the corresponding title, right?
Eleven Niang didn't have time to think about it.
After thanking the grace, the queen's reward came.
This time it's for her. Step shake, treasure flower each pair, "all the best", "rich flowers", "more than every year", "play baby picture" palace satin each four horses.
Send away the queen's chamberlain. The Queen Mother's reward came.
It's also for her. A bronze mirror is engraved with the words "Loyal to the World", and a copper ruler is engraved with "Women's Ring".
All the people of the Xu family knelt down for the third time to thank them.
The waiter smiled and said to Eleven Niang: "Take the mirror as a mirror, and take the ruler as a warning." Madame should remember the teachings of the Queen Mother. ”
After all, marrying in by herself is pouring the face of the queen mother, and only giving her a bronze mirror and a ruler is already very face-saving.
"Thank you father-in-law for the point." Eleven Niang said respectfully, "The concubine should remember the teachings of the Queen Mother, and she should be cautious in her words and deeds, and abide by it to the fullest." ”
Mrs. Tai couldn't help but glance at Eleven Niang.
At a young age, he received the order for the first time, and he did not flinch between advance and retreat......
When she raised her eyes, she saw her son's gaze rolling over her daughter-in-law.
Mrs. Tai couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of her mouth.
Seeing that Eleven Niang's attitude was respectful, the waiter smiled with a somewhat arrogant face.
Xu Lingyi personally stepped forward to take care of the inner servants - the inner servants sent by the emperor and the queen to announce the reward were taken care of by Xu Lingkuan.
The waiter's attitude became more and more arrogant, and he said to Xu Lingyi with a smile: "Hou Ye has time to go to Cining Palace more often, the Queen Mother has been thinking about Hou Ye." I often talk to my family about when the Hou Ye was a child, and he followed the emperor to smash all the bird's nests in Changchun Palace...... I really didn't expect that Hou Ye was so naughty when he was a child, but now he is also a pillar of the country, and he is a skull. The tone was very supportive.
It seems that although the Xu family married themselves with the support of the emperor, the process was not easy, and it can even be said that the victory of the Xu family was not a one-sided absolute victory...... It could also be an opportunity to get in the cracks.
Eleven Niang thought about it and found that everyone in the Xu family was sinking like water.
It seems that this waiter's attitude towards Xu Lingyi stabbed everyone in the Xu family.
But Xu Lingyi smiled modestly: "The bad deeds of the hour made my father-in-law smile." ”
The waiter seemed to be very satisfied with Xu Lingyi's attitude, laughed a few times, whispered a few words to Xu Lingyi cordially, and left.
Xu Lingyi personally sent him out.
The air in the yard was relaxed.
Eleven Niang hurriedly stepped forward to salute Mrs. Tai and the others.
Mrs. Tai accepted her salute with a smile, and the second lady was a widow, so she immediately avoided it: "It's too late, and the road there is not easy for me to walk, so I'll go back first." ”
It was difficult for everyone to keep her, and they watched her leave.
The third lady gave the eleventh lady a return gift: "Fourth brother and sister, congratulations, it seems that the fourth brother can't wait to report to the Ministry of Rites, and directly asks for your fate." ”
According to the system, after they get married, Xu Lingyi will go to the Ministry of Rites, and then the Ministry of Rites will report to the emperor for approval before she will be officially awarded the corresponding rank. Moreover, Yuan Niang is the wife, the first product, she is the stepfamily, and it should be the third product. Unexpectedly, the emperor posthumously sealed Yuan Niang, so she rose and got the order of Zhengyipin's wife.
But at this time, how can such a thing be said?
Not to mention that she just entered the door, it is very inappropriate for the third lady to say that "the fourth brother can't wait to report to the Ministry of Rites", once it is spread out, Xu Lingyi will inevitably leave a reputation of "pampering her inner family", giving people a sense of frivolity. It's even worse for yourself. Maybe it will be called a fox and frivolous......
Shi Niang thought of Mrs. Tai's decisive killing in her marriage, so she looked at Mrs. Tai with some trepidation.
Mrs. Tai's face sank, and she said, "Our whole family has come to receive the order, and all the ladies who came to congratulate the gift have all been arranged." "Tell her to go and entertain the guests.
The third lady's expression was slightly unnatural, and she said with a smile: "It's already arranged." ”
Xu Lingning, who was on the side, looked at it and immediately said, "Since there is nothing wrong here, you should go to the backyard to have a look!" I'm going to go to the front to entertain the guests. Today, there are four princes and two horses, not to mention the second and third grades...... I'm afraid that Yanjing has counted all of them! ”
Mrs. Tai nodded: "Don't let people say that we are rude!" ”
Xu Lingning respectfully responded "yes", saluted Mrs. Tai with the third lady, and the two of them went out of the courtyard together.
Only then did Shi Niang find that this courtyard was located between two halls, a seven-room hall in front and a five-room hall in the back, all with doors and bright lights. But because of the perspective, the back hall can be seen very clearly - there is a long desk Taishi chair, which is a place to entertain guests. The hall in front of me is a little unclear. However, she could hear the loud laughter to the left and right of the hall in front of her.
The banquet in the outer courtyard of the Xu family is placed there, right?
She guessed that Mrs. Tai had stepped forward and took Eleven Niang's hand: "Are you tired?" I'll let the maid take you back to the house first, right? ”
Shi Niang didn't know where her place was located in Xu's Mansion, but Mrs. Tai's word "first" made her immediately realize that Xu Lingyi might come back here. She lowered her eyelids, with a little shyness: "I'll wait for the Hou Ye to go back together......"
When Mrs. Tai heard this, the smile on her face increased a little.
The fifth lady on the side smiled and said, "Are you afraid of being alone in the new house?" But I have a body, and the people of the Qin Heavenly Prison said that the new house cannot enter the sheep...... I'll see you in a few days. ”
"Ahh Eleven Niang looked up and down at Mrs. Wu in surprise, "Do you have a baby?" When was it born? ”
She loves little babies.
I don't know if it's because of the wide clothes or the lack of months, I can't tell it at all.
The fifth lady's face was slightly red: "It's just been four months ......"
Xu Lingkuan smirked on the side.
"That's what you need to pay attention to." Eleven Niang was very happy for the couple, "I knelt down several times just now." Are you feeling sick? ”
The fifth lady shook her head slightly: "It wasn't a good time ago. It's all good now. ”
And Mrs. Tai saw that she and the fifth lady said that they fell in love, and the smile in her eyes became stronger.
After saying two words, Xu Lingyi turned back.
Seeing that there were only a few of them, he said strangely: "What about the third brother and the third sister-in-law?" ”
"Today they are in charge of greeting guests." Mrs. Tai smiled, "I let them go first." And he said, "I called you out in a hurry just now to take the order, and you haven't drunk the bar yet?" Let's go back to our new house! A room full of people is waiting for you to toast! ”
When Xu Lingyi heard her mother say this, she glanced at Eleven Niang.
Eleven Niang immediately lowered her head and followed behind Xu Lingyi with an obedient look.
Xu Lingyi saluted Mrs. Tai, raised her feet and went to the verandah to the east.
Eleven Niang gave everyone a blessing indiscriminately, and hurriedly followed Xu Lingyi back to the new house by the same way.
The people who watched the excitement in the new house were all gone, and only the two Quanfu ladies invited by the Xu family and the two beautiful maids who changed Xu Lingyi's clothes were in the house. Seeing the two of them coming in one after the other, the two Quanfu ladies breathed a sigh of relief, and invariably came forward, one pulled Eleven Niang and went to the house, and the other called the rough maid outside: "Let the kitchen send the table." ”
As soon as Eleven Niang sat down, the kitchen table was delivered.
It's nothing more than chicken, duck and fish with auspicious names.
Smelling the fragrant aroma of vegetables, Shi Niang felt a stomach ache - from morning to now, she has only eaten three bites of lily lotus seeds, red dates and peanut soup.
She resisted her greed, and under the guidance of the two Quanfu ladies, she drank and drank wine with Xu Lingyi.
The marriage ceremony is over.
The two Quanfu ladies congratulated Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang with a smile.
Eleven Niang each rewarded two big red envelopes, and the two Quanfu ladies retreated with a smile.
Xu Lingyi instructed the maid in the house: "Go and call the maid of the lady to come over." ”
One of the maids immediately obeyed.
"Change me into civilian clothes."
Another maid immediately stepped forward and skillfully changed his clothes.
The new house is a four-entry house. There is a corner door on the west side of the inverted seat, which leads directly to the corridor where the order is received. Each of the three rooms has two transepts, and each of the five main rooms has one transept. Their inner chamber was located on the west side of the main house.
Xu Lingyi changed clothes in the west, and Eleven Niang sat on the big kang near the window in the west room.
After a while, the maid served him and walked out of the purple and red background cloud pattern group flower.
Seeing a person sitting on the kang on the eleven mother, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Eleven Niang had already gotten off the kang and bowed to him.
Xu Lingyi's eyes flew and there was a hesitation: "I'm going to toast." ”
Eleven Niang responded with a low "yes", and then sent Xu Lingyi out of the main room.
Back in the house, she smiled and asked the maid, "What's your name?" ”
The maid said respectfully: "The slave's name is Xia Yi." ”
Eleven Niang nodded: "What is the name of the other one who is on an errand with you?" ”
"It's called late spring."
As he spoke, Late Spring brought in Amber and Holly.
It's just two hours since I saw each other, but for Amber and Holly, who have been worried about Eleven Niang, it seems like two years apart.
They couldn't help but burst into tears, and said in unison: "Miss, you, are you okay?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay!" Eleven Niang smiled. But in his heart, he said: I am very hungry! So the words "have you eaten" blurted out.
The two nodded again and again: "I've eaten it." We've all eaten. Tao's mother personally brought the rough mother to bring us food. ”
Eleven Niang smiled and nodded, and said to Chun Late and Xia Yi: "You all retreat!" They will serve me. ”
The two hesitated for a moment, but bowed their knees.
Eleven Niang instructed Holly and Amber: "Help me change my clothes, okay?" It's so uncomfortable to wear. ”
The two nodded, and went to prepare bath water and a change of clothes for Shi Niang, but Shi Niang sat down at the table and ate a small bowl of rice.
When Xu Lingyi walked in with the smell of wine, Eleven Niang had already washed her face, put on her usual Su'er, changed into a lake-green gown, and was reading a book on the big pillow.
"Master Hou is back!" She hurriedly put down the book and gave Xu Lingyi a salute under the kang.
Xu Lingyi's face was slightly red, but there was no trace of drunkenness in his eyes, but they were a little brighter than usual.
Eleven Niang secretly raised her vigilance.
There is a kind of person who gets brighter the more he drinks, and even if he is drunk, he can't see it.
But usually drunk people have less control over their emotions...... She didn't want to cause Xu Lingyi's unhappiness.
Xu Lingyi didn't look at her, went straight to the kang and picked up the book, leaned under the lamp of the Sheep's Horn Palace and read: ""The Chronicles of the Nine Domains of the Great Zhou"! ”
This guy must have drunk too much, or he wouldn't have popped out of his mouth word by word.
Eleven Niang was about to explain, Xu Lingyi had already lost the book and went to the clean room: "I want to bathe!" ”
