817 Birthday Bazi (and updates.)
Xuan Ye said, "That kid? Who is the child? You say anything with kindness, and how does this make you have to be as ruthless as it seems. ”
Lan Qi recalled what she said just now, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and sighed softly: "I used to think that she was a poor child, and she could live well after following the eighth elder brother, but I didn't expect that after a year, she would become like this." ”
"There is no need to be merciful to those who do evil." Xuan Ye's face was serious, "I handed over the Eight Blessings to you to see her receive a lesson and retribution, not for you to persuade people to be kind to her, otherwise, there is no need to have a promise between us." ”
"Your Majesty." Lan Qi asked, "Did Concubine Liang tell you that she wanted Concubine Hui to live rather than die?" ”
Xuan Ye bowed, "What's wrong?" ”
Lan Qi said: "The concubine doesn't want to clash head-on with the Beatitudes, that will cause unnecessary trouble, and let those things haunt her, it's fine." ”
Xuan Ye frowned slightly, but in the end he still said: "As long as you don't tolerate her, whatever you do, you have to remember that she is the one who killed our grandson." ”
"If Yinzhen has a chance, let him seek justice for the child in the future." Lan Qi said calmly, "He is Honghui's Amma." ”
However, when it came to her grandson, Lan Qi's heart trembled, and she said to Xuan Ye: "Before Yuxi left Beijing, she asked Qinglian to bring a word to her concubine, and I still feel very distressed when I think about it. Xuan Ye asked what was the matter, and Lan Qi said with a tangled eyebrow, "Yuxi said that the four Baylor mansions can't wither the branches and leaves, her health is not good, and Li Fangfujin's body is afraid that it is not easy to give birth, and Song Gege is the same." She can't expect Yinzhen to take a concubine to the person she likes, he won't do that kind of thing, only ask the emperor to ask the concubine to be the master, and then accept a newcomer for Yinzhen. What do you think, Your Majesty? ”
Xuan Ye's fingers moved slightly, as if he was counting, shook his head and said, "I have someone in my heart, but that child is still too young." ”
Lan Qi saw that Xuan Ye had never mentioned this matter to herself, and she didn't want to be curious and ask more, so she just said: "Then choose a few others, you don't have to be too noble, just give a decent name and raise it in the mansion, this is very cruel to Yuxi, but that child knows better than anyone else, let's fulfill her." ”
Xuan Ye sneered: "Although Yuxi is pitiful, a good wife should be like this." And I thought that the eighth husband and wife were in a similar situation and could comfort and support each other, but I didn't expect it to become like this, am I wrong, or are they wrong? ”
Lan Qi listened quietly, guessing that in the emperor's heart, choosing Yinzhen because of himself is only a small part of the reason, in the end, he still values the virtue and talent of his sons, the eighth elder brother is talented, but the child has lost his morality, Xuan Ye said that he wants a righteous emperor, an emperor who can really put his family and country in his heart. At the moment, Yin Zhen does not necessarily have such a lofty realm, he is slightly better than the brothers, but when others are calculating, he didn't do those things.
The country is the most important, Lan Qi firmly remembers these four words, and it is the four words that she wants her son to remember for the rest of her life.
Time has passed, the murderer of Honghui has not surfaced, the most aggrieved is the crown princess who was suspected at first, but the princess is noble and stable in front of people, as if that incident has never happened, as usual, every day to send nourishing decoction to the Qianqing Palace, to express her filial piety with the prince. Every morning and dusk, Dingxing took the children to greet the Queen Mother in Ningshou Palace, walked between the six palaces, and traveled with the royal family, still the style of the prince's concubine, and still regarded herself as the pride of the future queen.
And in those days, because of the emperor's closeness, the relationship with the prince did not ossify to the point of being out of control, the princess was willing to be wronged and did not do anything about the previous things, the prince followed him, and gradually let go of his arms, often in and out of the Qianqing Palace, others watched, and the father and son were also in harmony in the past, so some rumors were broken, at least the humiliation of the princess did not bring a worse impact.
In the blink of an eye, it has been the Qixi Festival, and the four Belle couples have been in Beijing for nearly two months and plan to return to Beijing before the Mid-Autumn Festival. From time to time, the news that came back to the palace was that Yinzhen had done a good job, and Yuxi was also in good health, and they lived in the magistrate's house, and the female relatives of that family took care of the weak Sifujin very thoughtfully.
This made Lan Qi feel a lot more relieved, and she also thought about spending Qixi in Zhang Luo Palace. It was the queen mother's meaning, saying that there has been no lively thing in the palace recently, and the atmosphere has been too depressing, although she is also very painful to lose Honghui Hongyun, but the royal family cannot be cloudy, and must be prosperous. The Qixi Festival brings the children into the palace, the girls beg, the boys have a good time, and they can't choke on food because of Honghui's death, so it is difficult that the little emperors and grandchildren will not enter the palace in the future.
The Queen Mother is for the sake of the long term, Lan Qi can understand, and after discussing with Concubine Rong, she set up a few tables of banquets, and on the day of Qixi Festival, she took her children to Ningshou Palace with her children. But before that, I heard that the palace was going to celebrate the Qixi Festival, and when there were finally more people, Concubine Liang specially came to Yonghe Palace and said to Lan Qi that although it was Qixi Festival, it was also close to the Midyear Festival, and people with lives in their hands would inevitably be afraid in the days before and after that day.
On the night of Qixi Festival, everyone was lively around the Queen Mother to make the old man happy, Lan Qi sat aside, holding the earring in her hand, and from time to time she looked at the Eight Blessings in the banquet, the young woman talked and laughed with the concubines around her, it was really difficult for her to hide her sins so well, to wear such a perfect mask to come out to meet people.
At this time, a crescent moon also hangs far away from the capital, Yinzhen took his wife to the south this time, it is to review the governance of the river workers, to prevent local officials from deceiving the disaster for the sake of political performance, Yinzhen goes in and out every day, as busy as in the capital, except for the first few days, there is not much time to really accompany Yuxi after that.
The ladies and ladies in the house are the people who accompany Yuxi every day, today's Chinese Valentine's Day, there are many female dependents in the family, so they naturally have to set up a few tables of banquets, and enjoy the moon at night and beg for a lively time, in order to seek a good future for the girls' lives.
Madame's niece, Niu Hulu, came to this house at about the same time as Sibeile and Yuxi. Mrs. has no daughters under her knees, and her sister-in-law gave birth to a daughter in Niu Hulu's house, and she treats her as a daughter, and the two places are not far apart, and she often comes home.
This time, I didn't know that Sibeile would live in their house, the children were in front of the house, and she couldn't drive her back, but I didn't expect to stay by my side and be with Sifujin as a companion, which was young and lively, and I liked Sifujin very much.
Tonight, Yuxi and his wife took a seat, watching the girls frolic and play, and when they were lively, suddenly someone said that Sibeile had arrived.
Yin Zhen didn't seem to know that there were so many female dependents here, or maybe he had been out for two days and was in a hurry to come back to visit Yuxi, so he broke in without any scruples, so scared that the female dependents avoided it, and they dispersed one after another, not daring to meet the eyes of Sibeile.
Yuxi also greeted her husband and blamed her: "Living in someone's house, I don't care about it." ”
Mrs. followed up and said: "If Lord Belle regards this place as his own home, it will be the honor of the concubine and my lord, and the concubine body still thinks that Lord Belle and Fu Jin will return to Beijing next month, and the family will be empty in the future, and please Fu Jin will revisit the old place when he wants to leave Beijing in the future to relieve his boredom." ”
But when she saw the beautiful little girl running over, she laughed at her aunt: "Why have you already talked about sending off guests, there is still a month, as soon as you say this, Lord Belle and Fu Jin must not go back immediately?" ”
The lady patted her niece's head and reproached: "I don't bow when I see Lord Baylor, there are no rules, hurry up and kowtow to Sibeile." ”
Yuxi smiled and said, "My sister often follows me to see Lord Belle these days, where are there so many rules." After stopping them, she quit her wife and husband and went back to the courtyard where they were resting, and never came here again.
The old lady watched her niece walk away, and then looked blankly in the direction where the four Baylors and his wife left, and her eldest daughter-in-law came up to support her mother-in-law, and asked E-Niang what she was in a daze, and Mrs. said softly: "Fu Jin asked me yesterday for your sister's birthday, what do you say Fu Jin wants to do?" ”
The daughter-in-law blinked her eyes and said in surprise, "Could it be that you fell in love with your sister?" ”
On this side, the couple returned to the bedroom, Yuxi personally served her husband to wash, even if she was taken care of in someone else's home, many things were inconvenient to fake others, and the things in the house have always been Yuxi herself, and after coming here for a month, she was in a much better mood.
The death of her son is still a severe pain in her heart, but the days have to go on, Yinzhen still has endless errands, she can't leave her husband without taking care of her, and she can't ignore Yinzhen's future, in the noisy rain that day, Yinzhen promised her to continue the child's life as a complete life in the future, so even if she lives for her son, Yuxi must cheer up.
Maybe since the day she lost Honghui, she has never been really decadent, others may think that she is pretending to be very hard, but only Yuxi herself knows that she is willing to become strong, if she is not strong, what else can she do?
At this moment, Yinzhen changed his clothes, and leaned lazily on the couch, this time he went out and walked away, most of the time was bumpy on the horse, Rao is young and tired, and he was in a hurry to come back to visit Yuxi, there was no delay on the road, and his wife was by his side at this moment, so he was relieved.
Yuxi brought a bowl of tea, watched him drink it slowly, and after taking the tea bowl, he hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "I wrote a letter to Eniang today, and I have sent it to the palace during the day." ”
Yin Zhen hummed and asked if he had asked E-Niang for him, Yuxi said yes and fiddled with the tea bowl lid in his hand.
"What's the matter?" Seeing her hesitant, Yin Zhen seemed to have something to say, and gently coaxed, "Are you homesick?" ”
Yuxi said: "I sandwiched the birthday of the girl from Niu Hulu's family and sent it to Eniang in a letter." ”
Yin Zhen didn't understand, and asked her, "What to do?" ”
Yuxi looked at him, her eyes flashed, and she responded softly: "I want to see her birthday, whether it is compatible with you." ”
