39. Hundreds of Ways to Meet the Enemy (4)
Tang Wufu smiled bitterly, if the queen's master didn't sleep well, he would be in an extremely bad mood, and hurriedly reminded, "Duke Cheng'en, Mrs. Zhending, Captain Yunqi, and Miss Fan'er are all waiting outside." The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "You can't make your family wait for a long time."
"Then call it up," Xingzhen took Anqian's hand to the main hall, and saw a bamboo curtain hanging down to the ground in front of the throne, Xingzhen looked at the slender bamboo curtain with great interest, saying that the way Cixi interfered in the government in her life was not to hide behind the curtain and listen to the ministers? Oh yes, it's called hanging the curtain and listening to the government.
Xingzhen ascended to the seat, Tang Wufu clapped his hands, and the little eunuch outside the hall knew the meaning inside, and shouted loudly: "The first-class Chengen Gong and the cloud cavalry captain are here!" ”
Xingzhen whispered a few words, and Tang Wufu interjected, "The ladies and relatives are here together." The little eunuch outside hurriedly sent an order: "Mrs. Zhending and others will meet you together!" ”
The candle flame in the room was bright, and through the bamboo curtain, Xingzhen's vision was blocked, and she saw a few figures swaying, entering the main hall, kneeling down and paying respects.
"Respectfully Queen Sheng'an, Queen Wanfu Jin'an!"
"Hurry up, it's all at home, there's no need to make a big salute," Xingzhen hasn't seen Hui Zheng for many years, but her mother often enters the palace, and she is diligent when she sees it, but she misses her father for a long time, her eyes are slightly red, and she hurriedly ordered Tang Wufu, who was standing outside the curtain with a whisk in his hand, "Remove the curtain." ”
Tang Wufu hurriedly rolled up the bamboo curtain with An Qian, Xingzhen stood up, stepped off the throne, and grabbed Hui Zheng, who had just trembled, "Father's body is okay?" What about mothers? He asked a series of questions, and then he was relieved, "Su Rili often writes letters, and I have asked all these words. ”
Hui Zheng smiled: "Niangniang has a deep filial piety. He said something to Xingzhen again, and pulled Gui Xiang behind him, "Gui Xiang is not going to meet the queen soon." ”
A young man was about to bow his head, Xingzhen hurriedly pulled his sleeve, "It's all my own family, what kind of courtesy!" He looked at Gui Xiang carefully, and saw that Gui Xiang was tall. With long eyebrows and sideburns, a nose like a silver bottle, and a melon seed face, he gave birth to a good embryo of a rich and handsome brother. Gui Xiang called out with a grin, "Big sister," Xingzhen nodded and touched Gui Xiang's head, "I've grown a lot taller." He asked a few more questions about what books he had been reading recently. What kind of words to practice, I saw Gui Xiang frowning with a bitter face and not speaking, Hui Zheng said: "Hey, what else do you read, can read a few words, don't go out to make trouble." ”
"Our children don't need to die studying, they don't need scientific examinations to be on errands, as long as they are sensible, distinguish between right and wrong, and be diligent on errands." Xingzhen laughed. Let go of Gui Xiang, and nodded at Fan'er, who was standing quietly behind, and teased, "Sure enough, it's the eldest girl who is going to prepare to leave the pavilion, but now she is starting to be quiet." ”
"!" Fan'er blushed and screamed, Xingzhen laughed, in order to raise Fan'er's lintel, Xingzhen specially asked the emperor for a decree to accept Fan'er as a righteous sister, the third lady of Yehenara's family, Xingzhen asked Fucha's. "Mother, is Fan'er's business done? This time, I came out to save my relatives for half of it. ”
Fucha smiled and said: "If you go back to Niangniang, all the dowries have been prepared, and Niangniang took her own body out to add makeup to Fan'er." It must be done properly. ”
"That's good, have you got breakfast?" Xingzhen asked Tang Wufu, "I'm a little hungry." ”
"It's ready."
Xingzhen took Fucha's hand, "Father and mother will accompany you to use some," said here and couldn't help but sigh, "Enter the palace." The opportunity to eat together as a family is gone. ”
"Why should Niangniang be sad," Hui Zheng hurriedly admonished, "Weichen can often see Tianyan, Niangniang lives in the garden, and it is not as strict as in the palace." ”
"What my father said was very true," Xingzhen put away her sadness, and she was happy to go home rarely, "Let's talk together." ”
"Yes."
The family sat together and had a lively meal, Fan'er took off the illusion of a lady, and returned to the appearance of jumping out, chatting with Guixiang at the dinner table, Xingzhen was extremely happy, and used two bowls of red rice porridge in a row. Wait until you have breakfast, take a nap, and then go to the ancestral hall to incense - originally married girls were not allowed to enter the ancestral hall, but now Xingzhen is not only the mother of the country, but also the "inner minister" of the hot auxiliary political son - I don't see a few Ye He's original blackened pen posts have been promoted to officials, and they have gone out of Beijing to become county officials? Officials who never enter the flow to the seventh or eighth grade, this is all for the sake of the queen!
So Xingzhen went to Ye He's ancestral hall openly, and the ancestral hall also opened the main door to welcome the queen in.
Xingzhen took three sticks of incense, prayed in her heart, and handed the incense to Fan'er, stood up with Anqian's hand, looked at the shadow and tablet above, and saw that the first place in the middle was the Jintaishi who was competing with Nurhachi, yes, that is, "Even if I have only one woman left in Yehenara, I must destroy Ai Xinjueluo and recover the blood debt!" The one.
Xingzhen secretly glanced at the clan elders standing with their hands hanging on both sides, and didn't see anything unusual, so she put down the matter and didn't mention it.
At noon, after lunch, Xingzhen went back to the bedroom when she was not out of the palace to take a nap, and when she slept until she was dazed, Anqian quietly whispered outside the tent, "Niangniang, the urgent report from Tongzhou is here." ”
Xingzhen woke up suddenly, turned over and opened the ink calligraphy and painting plain gauze tent, "What kind of emergency?" Did Yang Qingxi bring it? Get it! ”
"It's a message," Anqian's voice, which had always been calm, revealed unprecedented panic, "The monk king has been defeated in Tongzhou!" ”
……
"Defeated, defeated!" Monk Lingqin subconsciously rode his horse and fled against the British army, and there was a group of panicked cavalry on the side, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!
Unexpectedly, the rebels who were good at muskets and artillery did not ask for any bargain from themselves, but the Mongolian cavalry that they were proud of.
Monk Greenqin was like dead ashes on the rocking horse, and the people around him were all terrified, and there were sporadic gunshots and triumphant shouts of foreigners behind him, the wind was flying, the mountain rain was coming, and the fallen leaves were scattered, which seemed to indicate the fate of this ancient empire.
On 17 September, more than 30,000 people of Seng Lingqin and more than 10,000 people of the British and French armies fought in Zhangjiawan, Tongzhou. (To be continued.) )
