767 Father's Entrustment (There are also updates.)
Because the concubine has been sick for a long time, the palace has already made preparations for her posthumous affairs, Lan Qi rushed back, but it was just to help the concubine deal with those who came to mourn, after all, there are still many people who stay in the palace who recognize the former Wang Changzai, but they don't recognize today's concubine. In addition, it is impossible for the emperor and the queen mother to come back to preside over the funeral for the concubines, remembering the hard work of the concubines to raise several princes, the emperor gave the funeral of the concubines, and any pensions are given to Lan Qi and let her decide for herself.
The concubine and the concubine have been together for many years, and they have long been like sisters, although the concubine died of illness, but it also made her so sad that she couldn't afford to be sick, but fortunately, Lan Qi rushed back to preside over everything, and the concubine's aftermath was taken care of.
Because the prince stayed in the capital, he also cooperated in organizing the funeral of the concubine, and it was sent as a concubine courtesy, so he had to deploy manpower inside and outside the Forbidden City, and Lan Qi had several separate contacts, and between the conversations, Lan Qi was surprised by the prince's ability, he was really the prince cultivated by Xuan Ye, and he was no worse than his brothers. If he hadn't done those ridiculous things, if his humanity hadn't been so dark and often exposed, he would have been a good heir, but he had denied his life and future with his own hands.
A few days later, the funeral of Qixiang Palace was completed, Lan Qi said that the main hall would be renovated in a year, and the concubines would move in to live, so that if there were more people in the palace in the future, they would choose a good character to send them to her as companions.
Lan Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and when she returned to Yonghe Palace, she saw the people below packing up, Lan Qi smiled and said: "You guys are messing around, I'll be back for seven or eight days, and the emperor may have to go back, what are we going to do after him?" The people who sent me back also rushed back early, Yinzhen is not in the capital, do you want the prince to send someone to protect me? ”
Lu Zhu held the master's clothes and said happily: "Long live the lord sent someone to pick you up, saying that the funeral of the concubine is almost the same, so he will come to pick you up." The messenger said, after you left, it happened that the Queen Mother was uncomfortable, the army had been stationary, and the emperor was going to serve the Queen Mother and come back, but the Queen Mother said that she promised the Bodhisattva to worship, and she couldn't be untrustworthy, and it was not too late to go on the road after raising her spirit, so in the past seven or eight days, the emperor didn't go far at all, so he sent someone to pick you up. ”
Lan Qi is very worried about her children and Xuan Ye, but it is too ostentatious to rush back and forth like this, and she is not respectful to the deceased, not to mention that although the concubine's posthumous affairs are proper, other things involved during the period will be completed every week, and there is no time to travel again. He instructed Luzhu and them: "Wait a minute, I didn't think about whether I could go out or not, anyway, I won't delay the emperor's trip, let me think about it again." ”
On the same day, the holy driving party who stayed in the palace for a long time will finally start again tomorrow, Xuan Ye came to greet the body of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother said that she is old, but she is still tough, this is to worship the Bodhisattva to burn incense and worship the Buddha, she is in good spirits, as long as she walks slower on the road, it will not matter.
Xuan Ye talked to the Queen Mother, and when he withdrew, he saw that Wen Xianzheng was directing the palace maid and eunuch to pack up their things and prepare to leave tomorrow, standing under the eaves full of energy, he really had the posture of a capable little woman, and the daughter who was like a little pink ball in the past was still in his memory, and he was so old and married in the blink of an eye, but why...... Xuan Ye's heart was heavy, looking at his daughter with a lot of thoughts, maybe Lan Qi was right, continue to tie her and Shun Anyan together, and her daughter will only struggle for a reluctant life for the rest of her life. She is a princess, the daughter of the emperor, and even if she is a woman, she also carries the inheritance of the royal family.
The emperor perked up, settled down, and called: "Girl." ”
Wen Xian heard his father's voice, turned around to look, and sure enough, it was Ama who shouted to himself, and ran over with a smile, and instantly lost the domineering spirit of shouting at those minions, but the soft little daughter in his father's arms, asked in a coquettish voice: "Huang Ama, why are you calling other girls again?" ”
Xuan Ye patted her head and said, "Huang Ama wants to go to the nearby river embankment, are you willing to go together, Ama will take you on a horse." ”
"Okay, these days......" she lowered her voice and said aggrievedly, "I accompany the imperial grandmother every day to recuperate, and I have long been suffocated." ”
Xuan Ye laughed loudly, took his daughter's hand and walked outside, while saying: "Ama has sent someone to pick up your Eniang, let's continue to travel together, after going to Wutai Mountain, don't be in a hurry to return to the capital, do you have anywhere else you want to go, let's go together." ”
Wen Xian smiled sheepishly: "E-niang said, Ama loves to run around all these years, don't want to go out and play by yourself, rely on Erchen." ”
"Your mother didn't teach you some good things, what are you going to do?" Xuan Ye was disgusted, took his daughter outside, someone had already prepared a horse, he personally put his daughter in the saddle, originally planned to ride a ride, at this moment Xuan Ye suddenly rose, turned over the horse and sat with his daughter, Wen Xian said happily, "It seems that when I was a child, Amma, you have to hug me tightly, don't throw me down." ”
The horse galloped away, and it happened that Shun Anyan and the fourth elder brother came over to see this scene, Yinzhen saw that Shun Anyan was in a daze, and said coldly: "You are husband and wife, what can't you say, do you have to be so deadlocked, wouldn't it be good for you to coax her?" ”
Shun Anyan felt that what he wanted to say, the fourth elder brother would not understand, so he just answered yes and left in a hurry.
Xuan Ye took his daughter all the way, and the guards followed in a mighty way, and when they approached the embankment, they scared the locals who were washing and cooking by the river half to death. Xuan Ye felt that he was disturbing the people, so he simply took his daughter to approach the people, and the people saw the face of the sky for the first time, and saw that the emperor was so close to the people and kind, and gradually let go of their fears, and sent two bowls of freshly cooked rice, there were no good dishes, and a plate of pickled eggplant was dealt with.
The father and daughter sat on the ground, on the sparkling river, one holding a bowl of rice mixed with coarse grains, a plate of pickled vegetables on the ground, the sun shining warmly on the body at noon in early spring, talking and laughing and eating them unconsciously, Xuan Ye was surprised: "Can you eat such coarse grain?" I'm not afraid to turn around and have a stomach. ”
Wen Xian said unsatisfactorily: "It seems that in the past few days, this meal has been eaten the most steadily, although the food is rough, it is fragrant in the mouth." That's right, E-Niang always said not to eat in the tuyere, Huang Ama turned around and didn't tell her, if we have a stomach, E-Niang will not feel distressed, but will only scold us for deserving it. ”
Xuan Ye smiled with relief, beckoned his daughter to come close to him, wrapped her in a coat, and asked, "Is it cold?" ”
Wen Xian lifted his cheeks, which were red from the sun, shook his head and said, "It's not cold, it's even less cold to snuggle up with Amma." ”
Xuan Ye was very fond of his daughter, and the two were quiet for a while, and he asked, "Do you know why you were sent to the knees of the imperial grandmother in the first place, so that you could follow the imperial grandmother since childhood?" ”
Wen Xian shook his head, nodded again, and said, "The imperial grandmother is too lonely, does the imperial grandmother want her sons to accompany the imperial grandmother?" ”
"It is Ama and Eniang who hope that in the future, Wen Xian will not have to marry far away and raise you under the knees of the imperial grandmother, and the Queen Mother will be reluctant, and Ama will be able to justifiably leave you in the capital." Xuan Ye looked at her daughter lovingly, and said distressedly, "When you were still in your mother's belly, Ama decided with her, your mother was reluctant, but for the sake of your future life, she still agreed, otherwise where would there be a mother who is unwilling to raise her own children?" ”
Wen Xian listened stupidly, the tip of her nose was sour, she knew what Amma was worried about, she knew how much trouble she had caused her parents, but she didn't want to. nestled into his father's arms, Wen Xian choked up: "Huang Ama, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for Eniang." ”
"Silly girl, what are you sorry for?" Xuan Ye gently kissed his daughter's forehead, and said gently and solemnly, "Child, what does Amaro entrust you, can you bear it?" ”
This night, the atmosphere in Yonghe Palace was not very good, and Luzhu was looking forward to the mother setting off to meet the emperor again, but Lanqi had her concerns, and she didn't really want to go, but hesitated, and rested early at night, and she had been holding her spirit all day long to deal with the people outside, and she was already tired, I only remember Huanchun jokingly said: "Luzhu promised the little palace maid to take them out to play, but now you don't go, she has no face on her face......"
She fell asleep in a daze, it was a hearty sleep, but in the second half of the night, she fell into a dream, somehow went to the green grass and green riverside, followed the laughter step by step, suddenly saw Wen Xian playing in the riverbank, found himself coming, straightened up and shouted loudly: "Eniang, come quickly, the water is cold." ”
But Lan Qi approached her, but the child went directly to the river, Lan Qi was so anxious to chase over, Wen Xian's figure quickly disappeared, she exclaimed in her dream, shouted "child" and woke up, suddenly opened her eyes, the room was still black hole.
The night watchman outside heard the sound, and several candles lit up the house. "Mother, what's wrong with you?" Ziyu lifted the tent and helped Lan Qi to get up.
She felt tears on her face, and the sadness in her heart was even more difficult to resolve, and the fear of her daughter's disappearance made her frightened, and finally stopped hesitating and instructed Ziyu, "Let them prepare, we will leave early tomorrow morning." ”
Rushing to meet the emperor all the way, Lan Qi always held the string of Buddhist beads left by the Empress Dowager in her hand, and her heart was not at peace all the way, and she was even afraid to fall asleep at night, afraid of having that dream that made her tremble again. On the way, Yinzhen was ordered to come to pick up her mother, and she felt comforted to see her son, and she was relieved to learn that everything was fine and Wen Xian was fine.
Finally caught up with the holy car, Lan Qi hurriedly ran to the queen mother's side, and didn't care about saluting the queen mother, and pulled her daughter to look up and down first, but Wen Xian saw that Eniang looked tired and haggard, and said distressedly: "Eniang, you arrived so soon?" Are you walking in a hurry, you see you are exhausted. ”
