When the crying Yuxi calmed down, Yinzhen had already hurried to and fro, and Jue Luo asked the subordinates of the Elder Brother's Mansion to fetch water to serve them Fujin to wash their faces, and after listening to a few words, they knew that the fourth elder brother had returned. Yuxi listened dumbly and didn't care to ask, but felt that Luo asked the girls: "Fourth elder brother has arrived at the door?" ”

The maid who had been waiting in front of Fu Jin nodded awkwardly and said, "The fourth elder brother stood in front of the door for a while, and his face was very tense when he left, and the slaves and maids didn't dare to ask anything. ”

Jue Luo's heart was uneasy when he heard this, so he sent them down, helped his daughter who had been cleaned up to the bed, and persuaded her in a good voice: "There are always people below who are not strict in their mouths, if you spread your appearance, how should the two people in the house look at you, and how will the people outside look at you?" ”

Yuxi's eyes froze, and she was stunned and didn't react after leaning down, she didn't listen to a word of her mother's exhortation, Jue Luo said for a long time, and sighed helplessly: "Are you unable to tolerate gossip outside, or can't control the people in the house?" The first two years were fine, but there was good news in the Elder Brother's Mansion these days, so you can't stand it, right? ”

"E-niang." Yuxi finally made a weak sound, but his words were very tough, "In the eyes of the queen, I am the most compatible person with Yinzhen, I have a family background and appearance, a good temperament, and the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are not bad, even if I have no talent, it is better than ordinary people, I am not qualified to be the fourth elder brother's Fujin, but the queen's expectations for me are not just to be a Fujin?" E-niang, I'm ......"

Jue Luo hurriedly stretched out his hand to signal his daughter not to continue, and said with a frown: "Yuxi, if you still listen to Eniang's words, forget what the queen mother once said." ”

Yuxi's eyes were confused, and he muttered: "How can I forget, I can't forget." ”

Jue Luo said earnestly: "You are carrying such a burden, and in the end you will push the fourth elder brother tighter and tighter, you see that you have lost your nature now." At the beginning of the year, you still said to me, don't learn to be like the crown princess, but now you toss yourself like this, what's the difference between you and the crown princess. Do you think that if you don't say those annoying and mean words in your mouth, you are not forcing your husband step by step, but now you look like this, which is very serious compared to the princess's verbal coercion, how do you want the fourth elder brother to face it? ”

Yuxi turned over and covered her face, her refreshing cheeks were once again drowned in tears, and even crying has become a luxury over the years, and she can't tell whether she really has those praiseworthy good qualities, or whether she is playing a decent role every day. Isn't she the noble Brother Fujin, why can she be humiliated and ridiculed at will, and why does she greet her with a smile again and again?

Yuxi stopped crying, but her helpless appearance was heartbreaking, and Jue Luo wanted to persuade her again, but her daughter said, "Eniang, I'm so tired." ”

This night, because she didn't want to be gossiped about by the people in the house, Jue Luo still left her daughter's house overnight, and coaxed her daughter to fall asleep when she left, but in the middle of the night it was lightning and thunder and rain, she knew that Yuxi would definitely be woken up, and if she went to Brother's Mansion again the next day, it was really a bit dazzling, even if she was worried about whether her daughter would be well, she still endured it.

Changchun Garden, because of the rain, the garden is cooler, the next morning Xuan Ye woke up in the rain, felt that the climate was pleasant, he was going to order to live with his sons for a few more days, when Liang Gonggong came to serve and wash, but brought Concubine De Niangniang's words, the emperor has nothing to do recently, a while in Nanyuan and a while in Changchun Garden, the front Yingtai also went to live for a few days, if it is a place to live, it is just running around, everywhere has to open the cost, the palace and the palace and the palace repeatedly spend money, in vain. I sent someone to ask the emperor early this morning, if you don't want to live in Changchun Garden for a long time, it is better to go back today, otherwise you will stay longer, and it will not be too late to go back in autumn.

Xuan Ye scolded Manager Liang: "It's good for you to make these words clear to her, don't you pass them on to me?" ”

Liang Gonggong smiled and said: "How dare the slaves call the shots, naturally long live the master, what do you say, the minions can be passed on to the mother." ”

Xuan Ye was not in a bad mood, but joked: "Don't rush to reply to her, see what she will do if she is in a hurry." ”

After that, he put on his clothes, stood in front of the window and looked at the sky outside, gloomy as if there was a heavy rain about to fall, and he couldn't go back to the palace today, so he instructed Liang Gonggong: "Let them come over and talk to me to relieve boredom." ”

The emperor said that they naturally referred to the elder brothers who came with him, and the chief manager Liang should go down, so he had to go away and turn back, and told the emperor: "The slave was not bad last night, and when he came early in the morning, the little eunuch told the servant that the fourth elder brother came to Qingxi Book House in the middle of the night last night, and just lingered in front of the door for a while, probably knowing that you had rested, and then left, without saying anything." ”

Xuan Ye nodded: "I also went to bed early last night. ”

Since last winter to now, Xuan Ye listened to Lan Qi's words, there are fixed numbers for living and eating, he thinks that he has more lofty ideals and ambitions, and wants to continue to be the master of the world, without a strong body and bones, it has been quite effective for more than half a year, and he has become more and more energetic after forty, so he is more convinced of Lan Qi's long-winded words, but whenever there is no major event, he insists on a regular living habit.

At this moment, he asked Liang's father-in-law: "I remember that Yinzhen asked for a request to go back to his home yesterday, and came back in the middle of the night to see me, is there something at home?" ”

Manager Liang blamed himself: "The slave hasn't inquired yet, if you don't have breakfast first, the slave will ask." ”

Xuan Ye originally wanted to call Yinzhen to have a meal and ask him by the way, but he was afraid that the other brothers would look at him, so he gave up and only asked Manager Liang to inquire, but Liang's father-in-law returned in vain, and he didn't hear anything in the fourth elder brother's mansion, so he replied: "I heard that Mrs. Feiyangu went to the fourth elder brother's mansion last night, I don't know if Sifujin is unwell, and the fourth elder brother said that he went back to the house to get something, and it may not be to visit Sifujin." ”

Xuan Ye smiled: "If that's the case, why doesn't he explain it to me generously?" But in his heart, he thought that Lan Qi had been frowning these days, although he didn't mention it to himself personally, but he knew what Lan Qi was worried about, and it was a happy thing that he would add many emperors and grandchildren at the end of the year, but it had become a burden on their mother and son.

After a whole day, there was no chance to talk to Yinzhen alone, Xuan Ye simply called his sons one by one in the evening to say a few words, avoiding suddenly talking to the fourth elder brother alone and making people curious, and most of what the other sons said was irrelevant, and when he saw Yinzhen, the son was still ready to wait for his father to ask about the government or learning, and he didn't want Huang Ama to ask him straight to the point: "What's the matter at home, you came here last night and had something to say to me?" ”

The fourth elder brother was stunned, and Xuan Ye said again: "If you have something to say, this is not the Forbidden City, let alone the Qianqing Palace, you are here to relax." ”

Only then did Yinzhen speak, bowing his head and replying to his father: "Last night, I wanted to ask Huang Ama for an order to let Erchen go home again, Yuxi's health is not very good, and Erchen is not at ease." ”

"Sure enough, it's Yuxi." Xuan Ye said.

"No, it's not ......" Yinzhen was afraid that his father would leave a bad impression on his wife, and wanted to explain but didn't know where to start, but stammered.

Xuan Ye said: "You have let the housework get entangled now. ”

Yin Zhen was terrified, and bent her knees and said: "Please don't misunderstand Huang Ama, Yuxi's body has always been weak, she never pesters her sons, but her sons are not at ease." ”

"People inside and outside the palace are all rumoring that she has nothing to do under her knees, do you think I can't hear it?" Xuan Ye's face was serious, but he didn't see any anger, he just said very seriously, "As a wife, it is inevitable that she will be worried about this, but you are her husband, why don't you appease her well, but even your mother is worried?" ”

Yin Zhen didn't know what to do, so he could only say: "Please ask the emperor Ama to forgive his sins." ”

Xuan Ye said: "What's the use of forgiving sins, stabilizing the family is your own business." ”

Yin Zhen pursed her lips and hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Huang Ama, Erchen really doesn't know what to do, Erchen doesn't want to make trouble for Eniang, and the words to appease Yuxi have been exhausted, but Erchen can't stop Youyou's mouth, no matter how reasonable and sensible Yuxi is, he still can't withstand the pressure of gossip, Erchen is not explaining himself and his wife, but this is really not Yuxi's fault." ”

Xuan Ye smiled: "Whose fault is that?" ”

Yin Zhen was stunned, saw Ama motioning him to stand up, walked in front of him, patted him on the shoulder, stood with his hands in his hands, and said solemnly: "How to coax your wife, I don't care, but don't make your mother unhappy, let her be unhappy and worry with you, I will come to you to settle accounts." ”

"But ......"

"The rain has stopped outside, you go back, you can't feel at ease living here, I will go back to the palace tomorrow, your mother will come early in the morning to urge." Xuan Ye smiled slightly, and said impatiently to his son, "Even your own wife can't be coaxed, how do you take on the important affairs of the court?" ”

Yinzhen's cheeks were slightly red, he hung his head and couldn't speak, and he was repeatedly urged by his father, so he had to leave generously.

Xuan Ye didn't know how to appease his wife when his son returned home, but when he returned to the Forbidden City the next day, he was busy with the affairs in the Qianqing Palace in the afternoon, and immediately came to Lan Qi to ask for credit.

Lan Qi listened to him talk lightly about the troubles in his son's family, and unconsciously protected the calf, blamed Xuan Ye for being improper, and complained: "The emperor has a few words to explain his son, you just sent him away, and he still doesn't know what to do when he goes back." ”

Xuan Ye smiled: "But I only know how to coax you." ”

Lan Qi was speechless, she wanted to keep her face strained, but she smiled helplessly, leaned next to Xuan Ye and said: "The Empress Dowager used to always nag, and children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, although the concubines can't help but be curious about whether they are good or not, but as long as they don't really interfere, they can still keep their senses." The emperor doesn't have to worry about the children, and he doesn't have to worry about the concubines being too worried, I was prepared early in the morning, if Yuxi can't help her, it's useless to break my heart for her. ”
