Chapter 238: Mercy
I know that someone is going to take my child, but I can't stop it, and the feeling of being powerless is really uncomfortable.
I don't know if I felt my mother's mood, the originally quiet little Liu Concubine suddenly cried, and no matter how the concubine coaxed, it was useless.
"I guess I'm hungry! ......," said the nurse.
The concubine handed over the child to her, and then said to Dou Yifang: "Can you accompany the mourning family for a walk?" ”
"Hmm." What should come is always coming, Dou Yifang stood up.
They went to the back garden without their entourage. The back garden is full of flowers, competing for beauty, which is eye-catching and comfortable.
"You've put a lot of thought into this garden! ......" the concubine said.
"Idle is idle anyway." Dou Yifang's words had a hint of complaint.
She respects Concubine Pu very much, after all, Concubine Pu is her mother's friend and treats her well. But thinking that Concubine Pu was going to take away her child, she still couldn't help but feel resentful.
The concubine was not angry, "I see that you already know the meaning of the mourning family." ”
Dou Yifang was silent.
"The matter has come to this, and the mourning family has made it clear! ......" the concubine said, "Concubine Liu can't stay here all the time, I'm sure you know this very well." She needs a good environment, good teachers, and more importantly, ......"
She glanced at Dou Yifang and didn't say the words "good mother".
Dou Yifang already understood, and smiled dryly. Until now, they still believe that she and Yu Nianchu have a personal relationship.
Such a simple thing, as long as you go to Baiyun Temple to investigate, you can know it, so they can't think of it? (Dou Yifang didn't know what was happening in Baiyun Temple, so he thought so.) )
"Are you going to take it now?" Dou Yifang asked coldly.
"......No," said the concubine, "in ten days and a half months!" ……”
She is also quite sympathetic to Dou Yifang, so she wants Dou Yifang and Liu Concubine to get along for a while.
"You have contributed to the royal family giving birth to a princess, and you will be allowed to go out one day a month in the future." The concubine said again.
"Very good gift...... Dou Yifang's smile was full of irony.
"Do you have any more requests?" The concubine asked again.
"There is only one ......," Dou Yifang said very seriously, "You can't change the name of Concubine Liu!" ”
Her daughter has left her, and may be away for a long time, and her name is the most obvious sign that she remembers her daughter, so that it is easy to recognize her in the future, so she will have this requirement.
The concubine agreed.
After sending the concubine away, Dou Yifang hugged the swaddling baby from the nurse, and looked at the sleeping baby, tears welled up in her eyes.
I wanted to shed tears, but I was forced back. How could she cry in front of her daughter? Just like the vast majority of parents in this world, they don't show their fragile side in front of their children.
Because they are role models for their children, they want their children to be strong people.
Palace.
The news of Liu Heng's illness reached Zhang Hanyan's ears, and Zhang Hanyan personally stewed a cup of ginseng soup and took it to visit Liu Heng. When I didn't want to come to the door of Guangyuan Hall, I met Mrs. Zhen, who had just come out of it.
Since Mrs. Zhen beat Liu Chong, she was very proud, and she walked with high spirits.
Zhang Hanyan was just in a hurry to see Liu Heng, and after getting off the sedan chair, he trotted all the way, and even Xiaoyu couldn't catch up. She also turned around many times to urge Xiaoyu to hurry up, not wanting Mrs. Zhen to hear this voice.
Mrs. Zhen only felt noisy, and frowned: "Who is making noise in the palace?" ”
Yun Jun beside him looked down and saw Zhang Hanyan who was going up the steps, "It's the new son of the family, the young envoy of the king who has just been sealed." ”
"From the Han Palace?" Mrs. Zhen also saw Zhang Hanyan, and when she saw that others were young and beautiful, she felt a trace of jealousy in her heart.
"Yes......" Yunjun replied.
"Why is it so uneducated from the Han Palace?" Lady Jane's tone was full of displeasure.
Yun Jun knew that Zhang Hanyan was going to be unlucky.
After walking dozens of steps to the door of Guangyuan Palace, Zhang Hanyan raised his head, originally wanting to see if he was about to go, but he met a pair of domineering eyes.
She stopped.
Xiao Yu saw the situation, hurriedly quickened up and came to her side, knelt down and said, "Slave and maid see Mrs. Zhen." ”
When Zhang Hanyan heard this, he also knelt down to see.
Mrs. Zhen looked at her coldly and said, "You are Zhang Chang's envoy from the Han Palace?" ”
"The concubine body is exactly."
"What rules do you learn in the Han Palace, you need to know that the king is sick and needs to recuperate, you are good, you don't stop making noise. Is this how the Han Palace teaches? ”
Zhang Hanyan was silent, and Xiao Yu spoke on the side, "Madam, the long envoy knows that he is wrong......
"Wrong? I don't think it's like it at all? In the end, it's negligent discipline, I think it's better to let this palace teach you, you have a long memory! ”
Mrs. Zhen said viciously, "Yunjun, take her to the palm." ”
"Yes." Yun Jun walked towards Zhang Hanyan.
Xiao Yu complained bitterly in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Madam, the master is at fault, the slave and maid should treat her to be punished, and please ask the lady to spare the master this time, just punish the slave and maid......"
"Of course you have to be punished, this palace will punish her first, and then punish you!"
There are guards guarding outside this Guangyuan Palace, and when I saw this scene, I just watched the show.
Just as Yun Jun raised his hand, there was a sound from under the steps to stop.
Listening to the voice, Mrs. Jane knew who it was.
So she raised her gaze and faced Mrs. Han who was walking up in a condescending manner.
"Why is my sister here?" Mrs. Jane asked.
"Didn't you hear that the king was sick, so I came to visit." Mrs. Han said with a smile.
Seeing her smile, Yun Jun felt that something bad was wrong. Because Mrs. Han basically doesn't show a gentle smile to Mrs. Zhen, and now she must have ulterior motives for smiling like this.
Judging from the current situation, she wants to help Zhang Hanyan in order to win people's hearts.
"The king has just rested, my sister should come back another day! ......," said Mrs. Jane again.
"It's good!!" Although Mrs. Han agreed, she had no intention of leaving, and turned to Zhang Hanyan, who was kneeling on the steps, and said, "You are the new son of the family, right?" ”
"It's the slave." Zhang Hanyan said humbly. She called herself a concubine to Mrs. Zhen and a slave to Mrs. Han, obviously thinking that Mrs. Han's status was higher than that of Mrs. Zhen.
If you are a generous person, you won't care, but Mrs. Zhen is a person who likes to care, and she just got a son, so she feels that she is the first master in this harem.
So when I heard it, I felt harsh, and stared at Zhang Hanyan tightly with a sharp gaze.
Mrs. Han was very helpful when she heard this, and asked again, "Are you from the Han Palace?" ……”
"Hmm." Zhang Hanyan nodded.
"In that case, tell me about the situation in the Han Palace! ……”
This is obviously to relieve Zhang Hanyan, of course Zhang Hanyan understood, so he nodded and agreed.
"Then let's go! ......," Mrs. Han said.
"Wait!" Mrs. Zhen interrupted them, "The Zhang family has broken the palace rules and has not been punished yet?" You have to listen to her story, and it's not too late to listen to her when she's punished. It's just that I'm afraid she won't even be able to say anything when the time comes! ……”
"Yes, may I ask my sister, did Zhang Chang break that rule?"
"Wanton noise is detrimental to manners!"
"Noise?" Mrs. Han hooked the corners of her mouth, and a sly light flashed in her eyes......
"If my sister wants to say this, should she also punish herself?" Mrs. Han said.
"What are you talking nonsense?" Lady Jane's majesty had begun to waver.
Yun Jun seemed to understand Mrs. Han's counterattack, but it was inconvenient for her to intervene now, otherwise she would be punished.
"Sister is giving orders in front of the king's bedroom, don't you think it's a joke?"
"......" Hearing her say this, Mrs. Zhen couldn't help but sweep the guards next to her with her spare eyes, always feeling that they were watching a joke, and immediately became embarrassed.
"Zhang Chang is considered to be detrimental to his manners, so why don't you, sister?" Mrs. Han said aggressively.
"You...... I ......" Mrs. Jane was speechless for a moment, and when she couldn't think of how to break the siege, someone helped her.
"The slave has seen three masters!" Wan Quan walked out of the hall and saw that the three of them were deadlocked, so he hurriedly came up to play a round.
Mrs. Zhen suddenly grabbed the life-saving straw like a drowning person, and hurriedly said: "Father-in-law Wan, you came just in time, and Zhang Chang Envoy will hand it over to you to dispose of......"
After saying that, he left with his entourage without explaining why he wanted to dispose of it.
When she walked farther, Mrs. Han helped Zhang Hanyan up. But seeing Zhang Hanyan's aggrieved face, he comforted him with kind words.
There is one thing Yun Jun is right, Mrs. Han is exactly what she wants to win people's hearts. She knew that a group of family members were about to enter the palace, so she paid attention to encircling them and strengthening her power.
didn't know that Zhang Hanyan was stealing joy in his heart. Empress Lu's purpose in ordering her to come to the palace was not much, just to let her mess up the harem and confuse the king.
Now she can provoke the contradiction between the two ladies of Jane and Han, which is exactly what she wants to see.
"Father-in-law Wan, has the king woken up?" Mrs. Han asked.
"Wake up......," Wan Quandao said, "The two masters want to see the king?" ”
"Hmm."
"Inside, please! ……”
Entered the hall and saw Liu Heng.
Liu Heng was already sitting at his desk, draped in a blanket, and was reviewing the recitals. Rolls of bamboo slips were piled up, like a small mountain, almost obscuring him.
Mrs. Han looked distressed, and Zhang Hanyan thought with ulterior motives: The acting king is so diligent, what will the queen mother think if she knows?
When the two saw each other, Liu Heng put down the bamboo slips and asked them to sit down too.
"The king needs to take care of the dragon's body!!" Mrs. Han said.
Qingyun handed over a food box, Mrs. Han took it in her hand, opened it, and took out a can of soup out, "This is the concubine who made ginseng soup herself......"
Liu Heng looked at Zhang Hanyan, and saw that Zhang Hanyan was shyly trying to hide the food box in his hand, perhaps because he didn't want Mrs. Han to misunderstand that she was also here to compete for favor!!
"You brought soup too?" Liu Heng asked.
Zhang Hanyan nodded.
"Take it! ……”
Helpless, she could only submit it.
Liu Heng put the two cups of soup on the table, drank a few spoonfuls of each cup, and then ordered someone to clean it up.
"Madame Jane has brought soup just now, and this king is going to be full......" he quipped.
"It is our duty to care for the king." Mrs. Han said.
