80. Please
In the emperor's opinion, nothing is as important now as Shainin and the child in her womb. If the Xie family really made her so uncomfortable, it would be easy for them to not be able to enter the palace for the rest of their lives, and it would be easy for them to not even step further in the capital.
Xie Ning was still restless until it was time to go to bed and rest, which made the emperor can't help but wonder if the Xie family did something very sorry for her.
The tent was put down, and Xie Ning rolled the braids in his hand, wanting to speak but not knowing how to speak.
The emperor's hand reached over and tugged at her braid: "Not sleepy?" ”
Sooner or later, Xie Ning pondered, instead of letting others say it, it was better to say it himself.
Xie Ning himself thinks it's nothing, but maybe others don't think like that.
The lights were turned off in the house, and the tent was also very dark, Xie Ning whispered beside the pillow: "Your Majesty? ”
The emperor sighed and asked her, "What's the matter?" ”
“……”
It's too hard to get the words out of your mouth.
Shainin is not timid, nor is he afraid to say it, but he doesn't know where to start the first sentence.
"That, the concubine lost her father since she was a child......"
"I know."
Everything is difficult at the beginning, but the head has already opened, why do you think the following words are quite difficult?
The concubine didn't remember anything at that time, and followed her mother back to live in her grandmother's house. I have been to the Xie family several times in the past ten years, and I am not familiar with the Xie family's relatives. When the concubine was almost fourteen years old, my uncle was promoted and was going to the north again, and before leaving, the Xie family sent someone to say that my grandmother was sick and missed her granddaughter very much, and she wanted to take me over. ”
The emperor's squinted eyes opened slits.
"My aunt was reluctant at the time, and my uncle said that it was not good not to go, if my grandmother was really seriously ill and difficult to recover, but I didn't even show my face, then I would have to poke my backbone and scold me for being unfilial in the future."
Her uncle and aunt were also for her good, so they asked the Xie family to take her back. And my uncle couldn't delay taking office, so he said that if the matter on the Xie family's side was over, he would send a letter to his uncle's friend Fan's family, and let the Fan family take her and send her to her uncle.
"After living in Xie's house for more than half a month, I saw my grandmother, who didn't look like she was seriously ill. The Xie family didn't allow me to go out, and the letters I wrote couldn't be delivered, so they put my name on the list of the state government. ”
When she knew about it, the people who picked her had already come to see her, and after reading it, they loaded the car and took her away, and her grandmother and aunt just let her go out of the house, and they didn't even bring her a change of clothes, let alone the soft jewelry she brought from the Lin family to the Xie family. The only thing that Xie Ning can comfort herself is that the two little girls who are serving her are not from the Xie family, and the deeds are all in the Lin family, so the Xie family should not be able to sell them at will.
There was something that Miss Zhang, who was selected with Xie Ning, told her. This girl's family knows each other from the Lin family, and knows a lot about the Lin family, and knows more about the Lin family than Xie Ning, who has lived in her uncle's house for many years. However, before entering Beijing, Miss Zhang was brushed down, otherwise Xie Ning would still have a companion when she entered the palace.
"On the way to Beijing, the sister of the Zhang family told me that when my father was still alive, he had a verbal agreement with his friend to set a marriage for me and the son of that family. And my grandmother, my aunt, and my cousin all thought that the family business was good, and wanted my cousin to marry her, so they had to pull out my thorn in the side. ”
It's hard for them to come up with this trick and stuff her into the selection list, who dares to rob the emperor of a woman? Once and for all, there will be no more troubles, and there is a suitable statement for the family that wants to get married. There is no way around this, who let Shainin be chosen? The friendship between the two families is still there, and the family affair can continue, just change the bride.
This is also the part that Shainin finds the most difficult to say. Why is it difficult? One is that she has been married, although she doesn't even know about herself. The second is that she entered the palace out of a design frame-up act, but it was not her own willingness.
Will the emperor snub her because of this? Will she fall out of favor?
Xie Ning hadn't thought about this before, in fact, she hadn't been summoned for almost three years after entering the palace, she thought that she would live like this for the rest of her life, and she didn't think about what to do if she was favored.
If my aunt is still here, she will definitely beat her chest angrily, why is this girl so stupid? How can this kind of thing be told to the emperor? said that he was forced to enter the palace and was not willing, and said that he had once been married? Then can the emperor still wait to see you?
But Xie Ning thinks that there is no impermeable wall in the world, especially her aunt who doesn't do good things and does all bad things, maybe she can say something. Not only her, maybe the old lady of the Xie family will also follow her to Beijing. Shaining was particularly impressed, when her mother was still there, the two of them went back to the Xie family together, and the old lady was full of anger and scolded her mother for losing her family and Kefu, and she also took Shaining with her a little conscience, and she was not as good as the pug raised by the Xie family, she would only stick to the Lin family, and said that she was mean at first glance, and she was not blessed with fate, and she suffered for a lifetime.
In the past, Xie Ning felt that the old lady must not be her own grandmother, and she had never seen any real grandmother like this. It's a pity that when she gets older, she understands that the old lady is indeed her own grandmother, and she is neither suppressing the concubine from the main house nor filling the house and treating the children and grandchildren of the original match.
People who thought they would never be able to think of in their lifetime and would never deal with them again suddenly appeared like this again, rather than letting the emperor finally know from others, Xie Ning was willing to say it himself.
She was also a little uneasy, but she didn't feel that she had committed the crime of defrauding the king, nor did she deceive the emperor about anything. Those things were all things before she entered the palace.
However, she wasn't sure what the emperor would think.
After saying this, she was silent, anxiously waiting for the emperor's answer.
The emperor's answer was to yawn first, and said sleepily: "Go to sleep, I still have to get up early tomorrow, and I don't want to sleep as long as you want." ”
Xie Ning waited for a while in confusion, and did not wait for the emperor to say anything else.
Could it be that the emperor was so sleepy that he didn't hear what she just said?
Or is the emperor too sleepy, he heard it, but now he is sleepy and doesn't want to deal with her, and he will talk about it when he wakes up?
Shainin lay there and struggled around, but he didn't struggle for long. The physical strength and energy of a pregnant woman cannot be compared with that of a normal person, and she ...... quickly
Fell asleep.
Not surprisingly, Xie Ning woke up the next day, and the emperor had already gotten up and left, leaving Xie Ning alone on the bed.
The emperor left something behind, not about Xie Ning's confession last night, but for people to hurry up and sort out Yong'an's small study.
Xie Ning has something in his heart, and he can't live in peace. For breakfast, there are fried golden pancakes, which are delicious on their own, and they are also delicious when eaten with radish mung bean sprouts and melon strips.
At lunchtime, there is also a tofu soup and a steamed pork with lotus leaf powder, both of which Xie Ning likes to eat. She ate half a bowl of tofu soup and a piece of tamale.
Fang Shanggong had already seen it, and it wasn't until she got up after a break and talked to her that he asked her what was so worrying.
Xie Ning did hold back her words, it would be better for Fang Shanggong, such an old and serious person, to come up with ideas for her.
Fang Shanggong listened to Xie Ning's complaint very calmly and gently, and said with a smile: "You have been worried about this matter since yesterday until now?" ”
Shainin nodded.
"Do you think the emperor will snub you because of this?"
Xie Ning nodded again. She is pregnant now, and the emperor may wait until she gives birth to a child before snubbing her, right?
"This matter is not a big deal at all, and the emperor probably thinks the same way. If the marriage is really settled, and the person who chooses still sends people to the palace, it is that the person who chooses knowingly commits a crime. But since it's just a verbal agreement, there is no matchmaking and no hiring, and you don't know about it, then it can't be regarded as a marriage. Fang Shanggong said: "Since it is a non-existent matter, what are you worried about this?" ”
Not the same thing?
Is Fang Shanggong too understatement?
But the emperor didn't seem to take it seriously. Before dinner, Bai Hongqi came and said that the emperor was still thinking about Xie Meiren when he had dinner with several princes in front of him, and he gave Yongning Palace two dishes.
The emperor has gradually figured out Xie Ning's taste recently, when it is cold, she likes to eat some hot stews with soup, and the two dishes she appreciated today are like this. One is a winter melon cup, and the other is a meatball soup.
It seems that the emperor really didn't take this matter to heart.
Both dishes are hot, Xie Ning scooped a spoonful of winter melon in the cup and poured the bubbling dishes on the rice, the shrimp are smooth and tender, the bamboo shoots are crisp, and the soup is full of the unique light and sweet winter melon, Xie Ning is a little worried that if he eats it like this, when it is time to give birth, he will not become a ball, right?
But it's hard to part with food.
After dinner, Hu Rong replied.
After entering the house and asking for peace first, Xie Ning saw that his head was sweaty, and he was a little puzzled: "Where are you from?" Why do you still sweat so much? ”
Hu Rong hurriedly wiped his sweat with his sleeve: "The slave is not familiar with the road, and I thought I could come from Qingdemen, who wants Qingdemen to be unable to get through, and I went around again." ”
Xie Ning asked Qinghe to move a stool for him, Hu Rong didn't have the courage to sit, so he quickly told the news of the inquiry.
"The slave asked clearly, Mrs. Xie didn't go to Beijing alone this time, she also brought two Miss Xie with her, she went to the capital a year ago, and temporarily lived in Mrs. Xie's cousin's house in Xiliu Lane."
Xie Ning asked suspiciously: "Two Miss Xie?" ”
"It's Mrs. Xie's two daughters, two sisters, Miss Xie Lian and Miss Xie Wei."
Shainin was even more puzzled. Xie Lian is two years older than her, Xie Lian was looking for her mother-in-law's house before she entered the palace, it has been more than three years, is it possible that Xie Lian has not married yet? At that time, didn't my grandmother and aunt unanimously take care of her family affairs? For this reason, he did not hesitate to ask someone to pass through the door and stuff Shainin into the selection list. It is said that where there is a will, there is a way, with the scheming and perseverance of this ancestor and grandson woman, is there anything they can't do?
Hu Rong continued: "That Miss Xie seems to be a little stool on her legs. ”
