Chapter 9: Jingli City!

The next day, after learning that the Jiaolan Palace was sealed and the Queen Mother disappeared inexplicably, the sixth princess Ming Weige and the seventh princess Ming Zimei came to the Yangxin Palace together, wanting to ask Ming Chenhao why he treated the imperial grandmother like this. 〔。 s。

It's a pity that the two of them can't even enter the door of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

Father-in-law Su saw the two of them leading a team of maids towards this side from a distance, his brows furrowed, and he walked over and saluted: "The old slave has seen the two princesses. ”

Ming Weige walked in front, she didn't even look at him, and was about to go inside, but unfortunately she was intercepted by Gonggong Su sideways.

The sixth princess was furious: "A bold minion dares to stand in the way of this princess"

Gonggong Su lowered his head, but he didn't take half a step back, and said without humility or arrogance: "If you go back to the sixth princess, the old slave is intercepted here on the order of the emperor." The emperor has an order, and no one will come today. ”

"You"

The seventh princess tugged at the sleeve of the sixth princess, raised her head and said to Duke Su with a kind face: "Grandpa Su, this princess knows that you have served by the imperial brother's side for many years, and you dare to say this, then the imperial brother must have given such an order." But today I came here with the sixth sister, I really have an urgent matter to discuss with the imperial brother, please go in and report to the imperial brother, if the imperial brother is still unwilling to summon us, then we will turn around and go back, and we will not entangle you more. You see how"

Gonggong Su pondered for a while and asked, "What the Seventh Princess said is related to the Jiaolan Palace."

The seventh princess nodded: "Exactly, it is still the father-in-law who will report on his behalf." ”

"Please forgive the old slave for saying bluntly, if it is related to the Jiaolan Palace, then the emperor will definitely not see the two princesses. ”

In fact, the emperor didn't know what happened in the Jiaolan Palace, but since it was the national teacher who asked him to seal the palace, the emperor wouldn't ask more, and he didn't dare to ask more.

As for the missing queen mother, the emperor himself has no feelings for her, compared to her own personal safety, what does it matter whether the queen mother is missing or not

"What" the sixth princess glared: "According to Princess Ben, it must be you, the pickled slave, who wants to be lazy and don't want to run this trip, so you use words to fool Princess Ben." ”

"Sixth Sister" The seventh princess tugged at her sleeve again, and looked at the sixth princess with some disapproval.

The sixth princess waved her away and said to Su Gonggong: "Is this princess wrong, aren't you just a pickled slave in the palace who deceives your superiors and subordinates, and there are still few people who secretly betray the master?"

Gonggong Su lowered his eyes to hide the cruelty in his eyes, and sneered: "What the sixth princess said is true, the old slave is indeed just a pickled slave Since the sixth princess doesn't believe the old slave's words," the words turned sideways and continued: "Sixth princess, if you don't believe it, you can go in now." ”

Seeing this, the sixth princess snorted coldly: "Hmph, this princess knows that you are lying, wait, this princess will definitely sue you in front of the royal brother, so that you can't eat and walk around." After speaking, he was about to go to the palace, but he was grabbed by the wrist of the seventh princess.

The sixth princess glared at her coldly: "Ming Zimei, what are you doing with this princess?"

The seventh princess sighed lightly, shook her head at her to signal her to be restless, and looked sideways at Gonggong Su, who had been hanging his head and silent, and said softly: "Gonggong Su, if we break into the palace without the consent of the imperial brother, how will the imperial brother punish us?"

Gonggong Su looked up at the seventh princess in front of him in some surprise, and said secretly: Unexpectedly, this seventh princess, who has always been quiet and very low-key, is a smart person.

"The emperor confessed, no one will come today, if someone breaks into the Heart Cultivation Hall without permission, no matter what the identity of the other party is, they will be killed" After speaking, he also showed a shallow smile to the six princesses who had been frightened by his words.

"You lie to people, brother Huang"

"If the sixth princess doesn't believe it, she can go in now. The old slave knows that his status is low, and he doesn't dare to stop you. Father-in-law Su took another step back to the side.

"You this"

The seventh princess hurriedly pulled her back, and persuaded her: "Okay, sixth sister, since the imperial brother is unwilling to receive people, there is a reason why he will not receive it, let's go back today, and come over tomorrow, I believe that the imperial brother should see us." ”

The father-in-law in front of him is different from the other fathers-in-law in the palace, he is a celebrity who served the first emperor, and now he has become a celebrity next to the emperor's brother

If the sixth sister offends him, her marriage may be hindered in the future.

"Princess Ben can go by herself, you don't need to pretend to be kind here. Hmph" After going down the steps, the sixth princess shook off the seventh princess's hand, snorted coldly and walked towards the palace where she lived with her maid.

Seeing this, a maid beside the seventh princess was very angry, and muttered: "Princess, these six princesses are too knowing, you are obviously helping her, but she doesn't appreciate it, and treats you with such an attitude." ”

The seventh princess didn't look back at the maid, but just stared at the distant figure of the sixth princess and said, "Yunyue, twenty palms"

Because the Jiaolan Palace was sealed and the Queen Mother didn't know where to go, the Seventh Princess asked Yunyue, who had been waiting by the Queen Mother's side, from the Internal Affairs Bureau.

When the maid heard this, her little face turned white, and she hurriedly knelt on the snow and begged for mercy: "The seventh princess spares her life, the slave and maid will never break her mouth in the future, beg the seventh princess to spare her life." ”

Twenty mouths were thrown down, and the maid's face was already red and swollen.

The seventh princess turned to look at the dozen or so maids behind her and said lightly: "No matter how bad she is to the sixth princess, no matter how bad she is to this princess, it is also a matter between this princess and her. ”

When the maids kneeling on the ground heard this, their whole bodies trembled, and they all lowered their heads and did not dare to make any changes.

"Let's go back. ”

Yun Yue hurriedly followed behind her, and she had another layer of understanding of this usually silent seventh princess in her heart.

It is said that dogs that can bite people can't bark, and the sixth princess with a bad reputation may only be fierce on the surface, but the seventh princess with a good reputation is ruthless in her heart.

Father-in-law Su, who was not far away, naturally heard the movement here, he looked in the direction of the news of the seventh princess, his brows furrowed, he didn't expect that the seventh princess was a hidden person.

It seems that he has to mention this matter to the emperor.

In a two-entry mansion in Jingli City.

The sun shone down in the courtyard and fell on the man, and occasionally a few small birds flew through the air with their little wings. It is a state of tranquility and stability in the present world.

This house is not big, and the location is average in Jingli City, but its price is comparable to that of a house in the center of Jingli City.

The area in this courtyard is not large, but compared with the courtyard of the big family's house, there are many trees, stones, and flower beds. It can be seen that the original owner of this house was also a vassal and elegant person.

The original owner even dug a very delicate little fish pond near the wall. The perimeter of the fish pond is paved with white jade of the same color, and more than a dozen brightly colored koi fish are raised in the fish pond. The meaning symbolizes the family's wealth, auspiciousness, health and happiness.

Not to mention anything else, when Su Qingmo saw this fish pond for the first time, he had already decided to buy it in his heart.

Fortunately, there was enough money in the ring on her hand, and she had taken out all the things in the ring and counted them. The money paid for the house, and there was more than half of it left.

And this half of the money is enough for their family to live for more than ten years. When the two children were older, she went outside to inspect and see what kind of business could be more profitable.

Today's temperature has risen, and at the end of the hour, the sun will show its face through the layers of clouds, and the sun will feel warm on people's bodies.

In the courtyard, under an old osmanthus tree, Su Qingmo lay on a recliner, and placed two wooden cradles beside her. Occasionally, a few dreams would be heard, attracting Su Qingmo's attention.

On the other side of her was a small table with a few books stacked on top of each other and clean diapers for the children to change. There was also a small stove under the small table, on which was boiling a pot of tea, and the water in the teapot was rattling, and a white hot air was spraying out of the tea mouth.

Su Qingmo didn't care about these at this time, anyway, the water in this teapot, she had filled it up at the beginning, and the heat was not too big, let it tumble for a morning, and the water in this teapot would not boil dry.

She held a thick historical book in her hand, and looked at it leisurely while rocking the chaise longue. These days, she has read no less than ten books about the earthly style and humanities of this Celestial Empire, and she also has a certain understanding of this Celestial Empire.

For example, the emperor sitting on the dragon chair in the imperial city is a guy surnamed Ming, since he came to the throne five years ago, although his political achievements are average, he has not done anything wrong, so that the common people will comment that he is a faint king.

It seems that he is an emperor who has no great ambitions and acts in a proper manner. That's not bad, at least he recognized his shortcomings, and didn't become arrogant and conceited, and he didn't do his best to provoke neighboring countries and cause wars.

However, there is another person's identity that makes her curious.

According to what is said in this book, the Celestial Empire can have the current prosperity and prosperity situation completely because of the help of the great masters. It is said that this great master knows astronomy, geography, and the prosperity of the country.

Combined with his stunning appearance, he likes to wear snow-colored clothes, which makes people look at the autumn style and grace, and the world thinks that this great teacher is the reincarnation of the gods.

Looking at the description in this book, Su Qingmo imagined in his mind the appearance of a great teacher who had left the country.

Stunning appearance, isn't that a face with a little white face?

I like to wear snow-colored clothes, isn't that more like a little white face

Coupled with the clothing styles of this world, those rich and noble families all use wide sleeves, corset their waists, and coat a cardigan robe with larger sleeves but not a waist. Well, it looks a little similar to the Hanfu that was popular in the Wei and Jin dynasties in the previous life.

Dressed like this, no matter how ugly a person is, it will have a bit of a smell of dust.

What's more, it is a little white face with excellent looks to wear it, and the return rate is definitely high. It's just that I don't know who has a better appearance compared to the famous beautiful man Pan An in the Wei and Jin dynasties in his previous life.

"Hmm" The child's dream cry pulled Su Qingmo out of her fantasy, and she glanced sideways at the two children. Seeing that this kid Lisu kicked the quilt away naughtily, he got up and tucked the little quilt gently for him.

I took another look at my sleeping daughter, Limo, and saw that there was nothing wrong with her, so she lay back on the recliner again and continued to read.

It has been more than two months since they moved into this house, and according to the day tips given by Zhang, tomorrow will be the 100-day banquet for these two children.

The 100-day feast for the birth of a child is estimated to be rarely celebrated in modern times, and of course it depends on the customs of each place. However, in ancient times, this was a ceremony to wish the child a safe and auspicious life, and it was also a good day for a family to celebrate the joy of Tim Ding.

And on this day, parents will have a banquet and invite all their relatives and friends to their homes to watch the ceremony.

And Su Qingmo also discussed with the Zhang family, and tomorrow at noon, she would go to Zuifeng Building, the most prosperous restaurant in the city, to order a table of sumptuous wine and food and let it be delivered to her home.

When the time comes, a few of them will have a good time at home.

Regarding this banquet, the Zhang family was originally very opposed. She thinks that her cooking skills are not bad, and the dishes she makes are not much worse than those in the restaurant.

The cost of booking a table in that restaurant is estimated to be enough for her to cook a rich meal at home for several days in a row.

She thinks that the money in Su Qingmo's hand needs to be used to raise two children and adults, and it should not be so extravagant and wasteful, even if she has money in her hand, she should save some money.

But Su Qingmo insisted on going outside to order a table of wine and food this time, on the grounds that the child's full moon ceremony had not been held, and this 100-day banquet naturally could not be neglected.

Although she didn't experience the hard work of conceiving a baby in October, she didn't want to wronged these two little guys.

After all, these two children are the flesh that fell from her body, even if she resides in this body in place of the soul of the original owner, but the feeling of blood connection and family proximity will not go wrong.

Zhang couldn't, so he had to agree helplessly.

In his heart, he was secretly thinking about whether he should go outside to find something to do, earn some money and come back to supplement the family. Since moving to the city, the younger sister has borne all the expenses of their mother and son for several months.

Originally, the Zhang family disagreed from the beginning, they were also widows, and the Zhang family thought further than Su Qingmo.

If you hold the silver in your hand and don't run away on your own, if you keep eating and drinking, one day you will sit and eat empty, and then as Su Qingmo, a widow, even if she goes out to look for work, what good work can she find

insisted that he wanted to go out to find something to do, and resolutely disagreed that he and Erwa would eat and live here for nothing.

Su Qingmo couldn't, so she could only discuss with her, all the housework at home was undertaken by the Zhang family alone, in addition to taking care of the lives of their mother and son, Su Qingmo would also give the Zhang family a subsidy of five taels of silver every month as a reward.

For Zhang, this is obviously a big advantage. Since moving here, chicken, duck and fish are inseparable from the family's dinner table every day.

This is to be a first-class girl for a big family, and it is impossible to have such good living conditions, not to mention the remuneration of five taels of silver.

Seeing that Su Qingmo was so resolute, Zhang insisted on not wanting silver.

Su Qingmo thought about it and lowered the silver to one tael a month, if the Zhang family was still unwilling, then let her be. However, in the future, she will not be allowed to interfere in all the housework and the affairs of the two children in this family.

Zhang thought about it, this will definitely not work.

Looking at Su Qingmo's two little hands that are white and jade, it is obviously the life of the rich lady, how can she do housework

Besides, those two children, it's not that she looks down on this sister, but she really lets her be taken care of by Su Qingmo, she really can't rest assured. Ever since she saw the picture of Su Qingmo changing the child's diaper, she no longer dared to let Su Qingmo do these lock things.

It's just a diaper, but she treats the child like a dough, and her subordinates don't have any weight, tossing and turning the two children over and over again.

The two children are not yet one year old, and their bones have not yet grown strong, if Su Qingmo's subordinates don't pay attention, won't they be tossed out by her for half their lives

If she hadn't heard the child's cry in the kitchen and ran out, she would have never thought about the consequences.

Since the idea of going out to work was shattered by Su Qingmo, the Zhang family began to plan for this family in a down-to-earth manner. In the food and clothing of several people, what can be saved is saved.

------Off topic------

The update is late, sorry ha.

The supplement is that Yuanzi's gums are on fire, his mouth can't be opened, and he is uncomfortable and tight, so he saw the doctor in the morning, took the medicine, and ate it, and there is no improvement at this time.

I really want to eat and can't eat, it's the loneliest. If you want to drink but can't drink to your heart's content, it's just a song to leave
