Chapter 632: Scars
Su Mala was very helpless: "The slave knows where the emperor is, and when she heard the movement just now, she thought that the emperor was back." ”
Yuan Xi closed his eyes and said tiredly: "Auntie, I'm tired, you let me sleep for a while, take advantage of the cool weather, go back to the island early, the Queen Mother must be thinking about it." Tell Xuan Ye, don't be sad, grandpa is very alive when he is alive, everyone has to die, don't be afraid. ”
"The slave knows, you ...... Take care. "In a few days, go to the island, and Barya is looking forward to you." ”
Yuan Xi just nodded, didn't open his eyes and spoke again, Su Mala didn't want to force the child, so he quietly retreated.
There was a sound of footsteps outside the door, it was the movement of Su Mala leaving, it would not be the sound of Fu Lin coming back, Yuan Xi opened his eyes, looking at the gray sky, and tears kept falling.
"Amma ......" She covered her mouth, wept and trembled, and it took a while for her to recover, and she collapsed on the pillow with difficulty, and her headache was even worse.
In the Yong'an Temple in Beihai, Jiayin did not know about it, and came to the island for a few days, all of them copied the scriptures devoutly, and overtook their deceased parents and sons.
Fulin deals with government affairs, and the two of them only talk in their spare time, and outsiders may guess that the two emperors and concubines are on the island, but in fact, the land of Buddhism is the most pure.
Fu Lin learned about Tong Tulai's death in the morning, and sent Wu Liangfu to Tong's house to send condolences, give a funeral, and order hundreds of officials in Beijing to go to mourn.
However, Fu Lin did not return to the palace, he took it for granted that Yuan Xi went home.
Therefore, there is no hurry to go back to the palace to appease the sad people, and after Jiayin finishes copying the last scripture today, the two will leave the island together in the afternoon.
When leaving the island, Jia Yin learned that her uncle had died, she was very sad, and she was anxious to go back to appease Yuan Xi, Fu Lin said: "She must be at home, you don't have to worry." ”
But when he returned to the Forbidden City, he learned that Yuan Xi was sick and did not return to his parents' house at all.
You must know that unless the emperor decrees, or the queen mother decrees, allowing the concubines to leave the palace to take care of the funeral, they can leave the palace, otherwise it is all trespassing the palace rules and unlucky things.
The palace rules are ruthless, how much wealth is given to the concubines, and how many constraints are imposed at the same time, Yuan Xi is not complaining, even if he is not sick, he has never thought of going back.
When I woke up at this moment, it was Jia Yin who was sitting on the edge of the bed, one in front of the other and one after the other, who had lost their father every year, and knew each other's pain best, and they were speechless and burst into tears, and Yuan Xi cried again.
It was easy to calm down, and Jia Yin said that the emperor had come, and she didn't wake up for half an hour, so she would go back to the Qianqing Palace first and come back later.
Yuan Xi listened without words, only drank medicine and ate, tossed a game, and got tired again.
But Wu Liangfu sent someone to say that the emperor would come over in a while, and Jia Yin used the excuse of going back to change his clothes and leave temporarily.
When Fu Lin came, he wore the clothes he had gone out of, and when he met, he said, "I asked them to prepare a sedan chair, I carried you into a sedan chair, and I went out of the palace to change the carriage, and I sent you home." ”
Yuan Xi shook his head: "If the concubine doesn't go back, don't be busy with the emperor." ”
Fu Lin said: "I know that you want to go back, but you are bound by those damn rules, I don't care, you don't care, you can't get up, I come to hug you, go back and see your mother and brother." ”
Yuan Xi insisted on not complying: "The emperor will only make the family frightened and scrambling when he takes his concubines back, Ama is already gone, and everywhere is Yin and Yang separated, there is no difference." Your Majesty, the concubine said what was in her heart, don't be unhappy when you hear it, if people know that the emperor took the concubine back to her mother's house to treat the funeral, Sister Jiayin's old accounts should be turned out and read again, it's really boring. ”
Fu Lin was a little unhappy: "Do you think that I can't treat each other fairly between you and Jia Yin?" Yuan Xi, I didn't come back to see you early in the morning, I just thought you were going home, and I didn't rush to think about it, so I let you be at home with peace of mind, but I didn't expect you to leave at all. ”
Yuan Xi believes this, she also believes that as long as she speaks, she can get the same treatment as Dong Ejiayin, but she is not rare.
"Don't be angry, hug me......" Yuan Xi was soft, stretched out his hand to Fulin, and two lines of tears were clear on his haggard face, pitiful.
Fu Lin was very distressed, hugged Yuan Xi and said, "Okay, I won't force you, you have to get better quickly and be obedient." ”
"I'm obedient......" Yuan Xi choked up, full of sadness and heartbroken.
"I'm here, Yuan Xi, don't be afraid." Fu Lin tried his best to comfort her, and it didn't take long for the arms to quiet down.
When he left Jingren Palace, the placket of Fu Lin's chest was wet, the sky was gloomy, and it was so hot that he couldn't breathe, and he really wanted another heavy rain, but he was afraid that the heavy rain would become a disaster.
When I was young, I tread water on rainy days, had snowball fights on snowy days, and were all exciting things, but now natural change is a double-edged sword in my heart.
In the evening of this day, the holy decree came to Tong's mansion again, and the emperor added the title of Tong Tulai Shaobao, and ordered Prince An Yue Le to pay tribute on his behalf.
Yuan Xi asked the emperor not to tell his family that she was sick, so as not to add more trouble, and let the family finish his father's funeral smoothly, which is the most important thing.
On the day of Tong Tulai's funeral, it rained heavily, Yuan Xi sat under the eaves of the palace, leaned on the beauty couch to watch the dense rain, crackled and smashed on the ground, and said to himself: "With such a heavy rain, they must be in a hurry, God really doesn't give face." ”
Vanilla said on the side: "God also cries for adults, it is to save face." ”
Yuan Xi smiled bitterly: "The words are all said by people, how to listen to them and say them." ”
Xiao Quanzi brought an umbrella to block the ground, afraid that the rain would splash the master's skirt and shoes and socks.
Yuan Xi said that it was an eyesore and asked him to take it away, Xiao Quanzi was worried: "The slave is afraid that you will get sick in the rain again, and I really can't hold you that night." ”
"I dreamed that Amma came to say goodbye to me." Yuan Xi had tears in his eyes, "No matter how much you shout Amma, don't look back, I know that it's time." ”
"Niangniang, why don't you go back and send it off, the emperor is here to pick you up." Vanilla cried, "How empty my heart should be." ”
Yuan Xi smiled bitterly: "Such a favorite concubine, one is enough, I am not happy to be it." ”
Before the words fell, people came from the door, four or five people in trench coats, the oil-paper umbrella fell, the cloak was untied, and it was Pomegranate holding Xuan Ye in front of him.
"E-niang." As soon as Xuan Ye saw his mother, he ran over despite the heavy rain, and frightened a few eunuchs who followed him immediately with umbrellas to catch up.
Yuan Xi suddenly got up from the beauty couch, staggered into the rain, and hugged his son in his arms.
Everyone came with umbrellas, the mother and son had already hugged each other, and the third elder brother said in a milky voice: "E-niang doesn't cry, I'm back, E-niang has Xuanye." ”
"Master, be careful of the third elder brother in the rain." Everyone persuaded them, and finally sent the mother and son into the house.
Yuan Xi immediately wiped her son and changed his clothes, until Vanilla reminded her that she was also sick, and then she felt a headache and nasal congestion again.
"Miss, the Queen Mother is also back, and she came back with the third elder brother." Pomegranate changed her clothes and said, "The Queen Mother said that the third elder brother has officially returned to the palace, and he will go to school in the study with the second elder brother in the future, and it is time to attend class." ”
Yuan Xi asked Xiaoquanzi to go to Cining Palace, told the Queen Mother that everything was fine, and she would go to ask for peace in a few days, and then talked to Pomegranate about the family and cried again.
After Pomegranate settled the third elder brother, he went out of the palace to his home, and the funeral was over, and only some close family members stayed in the house to eat.
Mrs. Tong was tired and sad, and she was crooked in the inner courtyard at this time, and outside was Tong Guogang with his wife and younger brother in charge of everything, naturally orderly and thoughtful.
Pomegranate came to kowtow to Mrs. Tong and asked Mrs. Tong to cry once, but there were constantly wives of noble officials and eunuchs to mourn, and some noble and close ones came directly to the house to visit, and Pomegranate served well.
At this moment, Sony's wife came with her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Tong struggled to get up, Mrs. Sony pushed her down, and said gently: "Good sister, you can rest, just think about having a son and grandson, take care of your health." In the palace, Concubine Tong and the third elder brother are also thinking about you. ”
Mrs. Tong said with tears in her eyes: "Right now, my heart is in a mess, I have been with him all my life, he has been fighting all my life, I have been scared for decades, and I finally settled down, and I ...... so quickly."
As they said this, Pomegranate invited the young ladies to sit on the side, and the eldest young grandmother of the Suo family came with her daughter, a beautiful and lovely little girl who was about the same age as the third elder brother.
Pomegranate took candy to the little lady to eat, but when she looked closely, she saw a hideous scar on the girl's forehead.
It seems that in order to hide the scar, the sparse bangs are left, but this scar is obliquely erected on the eyebrows, and I don't know what it will become when it grows up.
Pomegranate understands that the girl with a scar on her face will be screened in the first round of the draft in the future, and she will not even be able to see the face of the emperor.
"Shu Shu, what should I say after taking what I eat?" The young lady coaxed her daughter and said, "Thank you, sister." ”
"Thank you, sister." The cute little doll has crooked eyebrows, and it's a pity that the scar on her forehead.
"Madam, the slave is a maid." Pomegranate hurriedly said, "I really don't dare to do it." ”
