Leisurely in the Qing Dynasty_15
Author: Snowy Son Size: 1368K Type: Crossing Time: 201110138: 21:38
ran out to inquire around, but no one would listen to her, and wanted to ask the eldest lady, but she couldn't even enter the door of the main house......
Still Mama Liu couldn't bear it, hugged her while crying, and said: "Your mother's life is miserable, that night, you didn't come back, your mother was anxious, her brain was confused, so she went around looking for you, but somehow, she broke into the front yard in a daze, and soiled Sanbeile's clothes...... But I didn't expect that your mother had lost her body over the years, and this dozen, before she hit ten boards, swallowed her breath......"
'Boom' - a loud noise, exploded in Gao Huiwen's head, she didn't know what was wrong with her, she was confused, like a lost soul, she fell on the bed in a daze for two days, the grain of rice did not enter, Mama Liu almost thought she couldn't get through, and even ran to beg Mrs. to find a doctor for her, of course the doctor didn't come, but on the third day, Gao Huiwen got better by herself, returned to normal, not only ate two bowls of hot porridge in one go, but also dressed up, with a smile on her face.
She didn't even ask her mother, she didn't even inquire where her mother was buried, and it seemed that she had left her mother, who had been dependent on her for ten years, all at once.
Mama Liu could only sigh and shake her head, but she didn't say anything.
After that, Gao Huiwen was even more low to her wife, flattering her eldest brother Gao Heng and Gao Huirong, and personally went to the kitchen to make soup for Gao Bin.
She also relied on a good embroidery to collect the edges and corners of the best fabrics in the house, made purses and sachets, and sold them to the old horse who guarded the door.
In this way, she intermittently accumulated a little money, all of which was used to deal with some low-level subordinates in the kitchen, and found a few opportunities to deliver food to Gao Bin by hand, although the effect was not very good, but when Gao Huiwen was thirteen years old, Gao Bin finally remembered that in addition to Gao Huirong, he also had a daughter, and he also instructed her to mention a few sentences, and also followed her wishes, and gave her the name that her mother had thought of a few years ago - 'Gao Huiwen'.
Gao Huiwen also deliberately made an expression of admiration for her father, and portrayed herself as a daughter who wanted to win her father's favor, so that she entered the palace, although she was not like her sister Gao Huirong, she got the full strength of the whole family, but in the end, she was not bullied because she had no backstage, and later the Ministry of Internal Affairs selected the servant daughter of the prince.
At that time, the Gao family was also affected by the prince's efforts to reduce the power of the internal affairs office, and Gao Bin thought of placing some people in the prince's place, which is what most of the coats will do, as long as someone comes to the prince's side, even if they are not favored, at least they can listen to some news, for example, what the prince has done recently, who he has a good relationship with, what type of people he hates, whether he has any hobbies, what things he likes, these information are the guarantee of the longevity of the coat family, of course, entering the harem, to be able to raise the flag, From a slave to a master, this is the highest pursuit of the Baoyi family......
However, the current crown prince is different from the previous princes, how can it be so simple to plant forces around him?
Therefore, when Gao Huiwen relied on hard work, seriousness, honesty, and other traits that let the teaching grandmothers like, when she chose a handmaid for the prince, the Gao family and her immediately became close, Gao Bin and the Gao lady even personally sent someone to contact her, sending her silver, gold and silver jewelry, beautiful clothes, all kinds of precious fat powder, in short, what she didn't enjoy in the Gao family before, she enjoyed it here.
Gao Huiwen then started her own plan, she first deliberately revealed all kinds of news about the prince to the Gao family, such as what the prince liked, what he did today, who he met, and so on.
After gaining the trust of the Gao family, Gao Huiwen revealed that she and another handmaiden who served the prince, the Jin family's Sumire about competing for favor, and deliberately said that the prince has a good impression of her now, and even asked her to wait for pen and ink, it is not difficult to make these illusions, because she is literate, she does have the opportunity to polish ink for the prince, and it is also a small study room where the prince rests on weekdays, not a big study to discuss state affairs, she can't enter a place like a big study, but it is much easier to get to the prince's small study, the prince is very tolerant, The palace maids are not strictly controlled......
In this way, after patiently tossing for half a year, Gao Huiwen finally guided his wife to come up with a plan to use medicine to seduce the prince...... She destroyed the Gao family herself, and along with the plan of pitting the third Belle Hongshi, she also began.
In just a few days, there was a problem with the incense incense that came in from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the news of Gao's miscarriage, which caused her to be pregnant for three months, spread throughout the palace.
This is the first heir of the prince, long live and the prince naturally attach great importance to it, Yongzheng Ye was furious, ordered a strict investigation, the entire internal affairs office was screened from top to bottom, and there were countless people who raided the family and exterminated the clan, and there were countless people who were assigned to fill the army.
I have to say that Gao Bin is a smart person, this guy knows what it means to survive with a broken arm, he gave up most of the team he left in the Internal Affairs Office, and pretended to be sad for the death of his beloved daughter, so he was not implicated.
It was a sunny day, and although it was late summer, the sun in the sky was still full of firepower.
There are two ice basins under the red sandalwood kang table of the Gao family, exuding a trace of coolness, Gao Bin closed his eyes, leaning on the windward pillow, a face that looks a little rigid and loyal, with fine and dense beads of sweat.
Mrs. Gao took an ivory chopstick, picked up the frozen pear slices on the table, fed them to her lord's mouth with her own hands, and smiled disapprerovingly: "Why should my lord worry, in the past few years, the lord and the prince don't know what kind of wind they are smoking, and they are looking for trouble with the internal affairs government one by one. The Ministry of Internal Affairs, isn't it still our world? Those who serve as close envoys to the inner court are still our people. Those emperors, princes and so on, are all high masters, they have their way, we slaves, we also have the way of slaves...... It doesn't matter who is the master, it can't be without a servant, right? ”
Gao Bin nodded, he just didn't understand, what did the Lord and the Prince think, in the past, those royal masters who were high in the sky really didn't take the clothed slaves to heart, but recently, this limelight is a little wrong, very wrong. It's not just him, he is not a big man in the Internal Affairs Office after all, a large part of the minions with heads and faces in the Internal Affairs Office have recently felt constrained everywhere, as if a group of people newly inserted by Long Live are a bunch of quite difficult bones to gnaw, in the past, it was like inserting a person's hand next to the master, adding an eyeliner and the like, it was very easy to do, but now, you have to be cautious, and you have to be cautious.
I was also too anxious, I was dizzy, I was actually played by a little girl, and this stupid trick caused the Gao family's power to shrink greatly in the Internal Affairs Office, if he hadn't made a quick decision, maybe he would have been involved...... However, that little girl is worthy of her own species, ruthless enough, unscrupulous enough, in order to achieve the goal, even she can sacrifice herself, it's a pity, if you knew from the beginning that she has such a great ability, she should be trained well.
Gao Bin shook his head, opened his eyes, wiped his sweat with the handkerchief in his wife's hand, and still muttered in his heart, Long live the Lord is too unruly to play cards, what is his plan?
The so-called rumors outside, Gao Bin naturally knew that they were all under the guise of the royal family to save face, which is not surprising, the royal secret will never be hyped up, but in addition to Gao Huiwen's death, the Internal Affairs Office was cleaned up again by the excuse of Banzai, but the three Belle Hongshi, who really entered the game, did not deal with it at all, and there was not even half a rumor involving him......
It is said that the prince should take this opportunity to hit this brother who is the only threat to him, but the prince does not say anything at all, no matter when he meets Sanbele, he is still gentle and courteous, and he is very close.
Sanbeile Hongshi is a lot more low-key, I heard that he was infected with the wind and cold, and recently closed the door to thank guests, and even the drama of the auspicious class that he liked to listen to was broken, and Concubine Qi Li was still the same, but suddenly she was much colder to Concubine De who was retired in Shengjing, Concubine Qi was quite filial in the past, knowing that Concubine De's body was weak, and she had been sick for more than a year, and even shed several tears, saying that she could not serve the sick in person, and she was not filial......
Gao Bin sighed, he was still not well-informed, he didn't know if the Long Live Lord had any tricks, let's settle down recently, I originally wanted to move the relationship and let Hui Rong, who was on an errand beside Concubine Qi, be transferred to Jingyang Palace, but now it seems that it is still necessary to be stable......
The Temple of Nourishing the Heart
Honghao threw aside a bunch of apologetic folds in his hand, and when he looked up, he saw his own emperor Ama and Huang Eniang arranging their clothes and hats in front of the dressing mirror on the floor.
"Huang Ama, Gao Jia...... Just let it go? ”
"As I said, the Internal Affairs Office and your brothers are your problems." Ouyang hugged his daughter-in-law and turned his head, looking at his son, who was already about the same size as himself, and showed a smile, "The clothed servants of the Internal Affairs Office control the clothing, food, housing and transportation of the entire royal family, and they are implicated in each other, many families are in-laws and have a close relationship, you just suppressed one or two of them, and soon there will be another family again." ”
"Although they are slaves, sometimes they are really inseparable from the masters. It's not easy to solve this problem, but you don't have to worry too much, the background of the House of Internal Affairs is not deep enough, and now it's time to start paying attention to it, limiting their power step by step, reforming the House of Internal Affairs, and reducing their influence, if it takes decades, hundreds of years, and when their power grows to the point where they can't be restricted, it will be really difficult to do. ”
"As for the Gao family, Gao Bin still has some skills compared with other people, he has done a good job in his own job, and he is not the kind of official who does not know how to control the people's fat and ointment, and he is even more powerful in figuring out the intentions, and he has never had a good evaluation of the following officials, and he has also a good way to build people's livelihood, such a person, you can't just dislike him because of personal feelings, so you don't need him to do things."
For Gao Bin, Ouyang's perception is neither good nor bad, mainly because talents are rare, and if he wants the entire court officials to be dedicated to the public and have no selfish intentions, it is pure dreaming, which is almost enough.
Obviously, Honghao, as the crown prince, has been in charge of the country for many years, and he is no longer the young prince who was stable but immature enough, he already has the quality of a prince, so at this time, he is just talking, and he has no idea of killing Gao Bin, but Gao Bin's ambition is too great, although it is a good knife, it is to be firmly imprisoned in the scabbard.
Thinking of the Internal Affairs Office, as well as the usual Emperor Ama and his analysis, the disadvantages of the Qing Dynasty, Honghao couldn't help but have a headache, although there are more and more people who can do things under his hands, but, in terms of major affairs, he still has to make his own ideas, Honghao looked at more and more official affairs, and felt that it was better to hurry up and cultivate talents......
It is absolutely impossible for him to eat ready-made meals, and Huang Ama has made it clear that he can leave himself a politically clear and full treasury of the Qing Dynasty, but as a prince, he must also be prepared to overcome obstacles and deal with more troubles, and he must be prepared to shoulder a country.
It's really not easy, at least, it's an extremely difficult task for Honghao now.
Ouyang raised his eyebrows, and didn't throw the headache to his son's consciousness at all, just explained a few words, and then leaned down to take the place of his wife, who was pregnant with Liujia, with her hair.
When Zhiyun was pregnant, she didn't like complicated hair shapes, so she only combed a simple two handfuls of hair, Ouyang's craftsmanship was not bad, anyway, it wouldn't let her daughter-in-law's hair fall apart.
took another necklace strung with full and round pearls, put it on for Zhiyun, and looked at his ruddy and radiant wife in the mirror, Ouyang raised his eyebrows, quite satisfied.
A while ago, Zhiyun's fetal movement was obvious, and she vomited after eating a little, and in the end she couldn't even swallow her food, so she could only rely on nutrient solution to support her, so that her body was much weaker.
Ouyang was so frightened that he and October pressed his daughter-in-law on the bed for a long time, except for being guarded and taking a walk on his own one-third of an acre, he didn't want to go out.
After raising it for a long time, the imperial doctor finally said that the queen's body is bone-bone, and the little brother (little princess) is also healthy, and Zhiyun, who is nourished by all kinds of supplements and health care potions, can't help it, she doesn't care about her body, but she has been bored, and she is in a bad mood, which is not good for herself or her children.
In short, she was determined to go out loosely. As a last resort, who makes the sky and the earth big, not as big as a pregnant woman, even if Ouyang is both Zhiyun's husband and Zhiyun's boss, at this time, there is only compromise.
Honghao couldn't help but laugh and looked at Huang Ama's various wives and slaves, but he still made a look and told Gao Fu to guard the gate, and he had to be careful to protect the face of Yongzhengye's cold-faced king, but as a son, he didn't mind appreciating the love of his parents and husbands.
"Huang Ama, the fifth elder brother of the family of Wang Yunyu of Qinqin County, has been bedridden recently, I heard that the environment in Shengjing is not suitable for cultivation, and I have been asking to return to Beijing, I heard that you agreed yesterday?"
"Hmm."
"And ...... Huang Eniang, how come the ministers don't know that Gao Huiwen is a person from Hongli? ”
Ouyang smiled, stood up with his daughter-in-law in his arms, slowly walked outside the hall, and glanced back at Honghao, who was rolling his eyes, "Who said that Gao Huiwen is from Hongli?" The news that your imperial mother sent someone to reveal to Concubine Qi obviously just said that Mama Zhou, the steward of Jingyang Palace, and Mama Qian, the nurse of Brother Hongli, are fellow villagers, and the relationship is not bad, but the rest is found out by Concubine Qi herself. Besides, Hongli did make Mama Qian say a few good words about Gao Huiwen to Mama Zhou intentionally or unintentionally, as for whether he had the intention of using Gao Huiwen to make trouble, only he knew...... However, Gao Huiwen, a 'dead' woman, what are you going to arrange? ”
In Gao Huiwen's misfortune, it seems that she is faintly lucky, she did not die, the prince Honghao asked her to change her name and surname, and had a new identity, and then threw her into the sticky pole to train.
"Gao Huiwen is a good seedling, calm and self-controlled, can act, ruthless, but she is also principled and emotional, I plan to train her to be my confidant."
"Honghao, this kid has really grown up."
Listening to Honghao's casual explanation, when Ouyang and Zhiyun left the palace, they couldn't help but sigh with emotion, their son has grown up, matured, and can take charge of himself, but while he is proud, he will inevitably have a trace of melancholy.
The scenery of the Old Summer Palace is actually not as good as that of the floating city, but Zhiyun eats well and sleeps well, and often dips his head on the pillow, and he has no dreams all night.
In the early morning of this day, when Zhiyun opened his eyes, his surroundings were empty, he frowned, yawned slightly, and when he heard the movement, he hurriedly came in and asked in a low voice, "Master, do you want to get up?" ”
Zhiyun nodded, and immediately outside the door, Gong E came into the house to serve with a toiletry in her hand.
Lazily stretched out her hand for them to freshen up, Zhiyun looked around, couldn't see Ouyang, and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and asked, "What about the emperor?" ”
"Back to the master, long live the lord summoned a few princes, Lord Zhang and Lord Yue today, got up very early, and specially explained that I want to have dinner with you at noon."
Zhiyun Wan'er, holding October's hand, sat in front of the dressing mirror, October's heart and feet neatly pulled a "swallowtail" style bun on the back of her neck, and with a flat hairpin, picked a pink cheongsam, it is not yet autumn, but the thick clothes should also be prepared, October while cleaning up her own master is refreshing and comfortable, looking at her big belly, thinking in her heart.
Dressed properly, Zhiyun and October embroidered a few needles and threads, but after half an hour, I felt that the house was stuffy, and the windows were not open, so I simply brought a large string of maids and maids to the edge of the lotus pond to enjoy the coolness, October refused to let her get too close to the water, and gambled on a bunch of people back and forth, Zhiyun sighed, knowing that people were not at ease, even if there was a little mistake, they were also responsible, so it was not good to complain, so I found a gazebo nearby, and let October lay a soft mat, and put her like a porcelain doll. Resting on the 'mat'.
At this time, Ouyang was sitting in the study, holding the book in his hand and watching it with relish, and the eighth and thirteenth were sitting on the mahogany chair next to the window, holding fragrant tea in their hands, leaning against the window to enjoy the scenery outside.
The tea leaves are specially cultivated by Zhiyun from the Potions Garden, and the most tender and best parts of them are collected, and the water used to make the tea is also mixed with the water from the Fountain of Life. At this time, the entrance is full of aroma, mellow and refreshing.
Yun Xiang and Yun Yu had a cup of belly, and they couldn't help but be in good spirits, sweeping away the tiredness of the past, the two of them squinted comfortably, and from time to time they got together and muttered a few words, thinking about how to squeeze some of his good things out of the fourth brother's hands, and there was no-for-tat posture at all.
Zhang Tingyu was not surprised, the expression on his face did not fluctuate in the slightest, but Yue Zhongqi was dumbfounded, a while ago there were many rumors in the capital that the eighth master let Yongzheng Ye be put under house arrest, and what kind of illness and closing the door to thank guests were all excuses.
Although he didn't believe it completely, he felt that it was not impossible in his heart. For a while, he was even worried...... The Eighth Master will unite with the Fourteenth and other Masters to rebel.
After all, the Nine Dragons seized the heir back then and made an earth-shattering uproar, and the eighth master and the current long live on the dragon chair are obviously incompatible, and besides, what kind of person is the eighth master, known as the virtuous king, most of the civil officials in the imperial court are the eight master party, if he does not sit in that position, the eighth master will be willing? Long live the Lord is even more unlikely not to taboo him.
For a while, Prince Lian's whereabouts became a mystery, and there were some strange rumors from the government and the opposition, some said that he was seriously ill, and some said that he had been secretly executed by the secret of the Long Live Lord, although these rumors were not too many, but in the end they made the courtiers who liked to stabilize the situation tremble and be uneasy for a long time, and then Prince Lian appeared in the capital again, and the rumors dissipated.
Yue Zhongqi is a military general with troops, there are not many flowers, but he is not stupid, and he thinks that his eyesight is not bad, at this time, although Prince Lian's complexion is not good, he is also refreshed, full of energy, obviously in a good mood, this master and Banzai do not interact much, but there is no tension between the two people at all...... Could it be that Yongzheng Ye really didn't plan to attack a few brothers? How many princes and the emperor have eased their relationship? How is that possible......
Yue Zhongqi shook his head and suppressed the confused thoughts in his head...... Now is not the time to think wildly. At this level, he doesn't know how to get through it, he can't protect himself, how can he be in the mood to worry about the side.
Ouyang couldn't comprehend Yue Zhongqi's depression and helplessness, and after reading the excerpt, Wan Er smiled and said, "Zeng Jing? This person is quite literate, if he participates in the imperial examination, he may be able to achieve a very good ranking, he is in his fifties this year, and he is not young. ”
Yun Yu turned his head and rolled his eyes. Yun Xiang even pulled the fold away from Ouyang's eyes, knocked on the table while watching, and when he saw it, he laughed and said: "Let Zeng Jing go and write a script, maybe you can become a generation, my sister-in-law doesn't often shout boring recently, saying that the book is almost the same as if it can be entertained, and the new work is in urgent need." ”
The cold sweat on Yue Zhongqi's forehead flowed down, he was more than five feet tall and a tough guy, no matter when and where, he had always been straight, and he refused to bend his waist, but at this moment, he always felt that a nail had emerged from the chair, and something was wrong with how to sit.
The secret fold he sent was actually a long letter written by Zeng Jing to himself, which was sent by Zeng Jing's disciples from thousands of miles away and personally handed to him.
I have to say that Zeng Jing's handwriting is good, the writing is better, the whole letter from Yue Fei to resist Jin, all the way to the Manchurian barbarians entering the customs, like telling a story, the plot ups and downs, touching, not to mention that he, the descendant of Yue Wumu, is an ordinary Han person who reads it, and he can't help but boil his blood, but no matter how well it is written, it is not realistic.
Now that the world is peaceful, and the people's minds are determined, the so-called organizations that oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty are all a thing of the past, and they have either been completely uprooted, or they are a group of rabble, and the court does not care about it at all.
Moreover, since Yongzheng ascended the throne, the policy of lightly leviing the thin endowment, rewarding agriculture and mulberry, and benefiting the people has been implemented non-stop, and now the agricultural tax is almost nothing, and the grain crops are not only more varied than in previous years, but also the output is much higher, and the life of the common people is really much better than in the past.
The government and the opposition are stable, Yongzhengye's prestige is extremely high, and he still holds the new army in his hands, coupled with the reform of the army, the generals who lead the troops are changed every three years, and they are not allowed to raise private soldiers at all, that is, he Yue Zhongqi really wants to rebel, and no one will listen to him when he ascends to the heights.
Now when it comes to rebellion, Zeng Jing is afraid that he has too many books, and he has become a nerd when he reads, he wants to die, but he still has his wife and children, and he has no heart to be stupid with him.
He is indeed a descendant of Yue Wumu, but now that he is in the world of the Qing Dynasty, can he still raise an army against the Qing Dynasty because his ancestors are anti-Jin heroes?
Yue Zhongqi sighed in his heart, Zeng Jing hurt people a lot, as soon as this letter came out, even if he had already played long live, in the future, I am afraid that he would inevitably be taboo, and if he wants to lead troops to fight in the future, I am afraid it will be difficult...... Thinking of this, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Long live, Zeng Jing's disciple Zhang Xi has been taken down by the ministers, please make a decision." ”
Ouyang smiled, and read the entire letter again, although anyone who reads this letter knows that it is a letter to persuade Yue Zhong to rebel, but it is not explicitly stated, the literati have a very high ability to play word games, and there is not a single sentence in it that directly asks Yue Zhongqi to rebel, strictly speaking, it really can't be regarded as any evidence.
In fact, before this letter reached Yue Zhongqi's hands, he already knew about it, and sent someone to check it, the last time he summoned Zhang Tingyu and his son, it was for this matter.
Zeng Jing is a teacher, because he read Lu Liuliang's book, he has anti-Qing thoughts, but he just wants to, he is a scholar, he has no anti-Qing ability at all, and the original Yongzheng did not treat him well, but was exempted from crime, but because of this, he was greatly imprisoned...... Ouyang didn't care about this, and he didn't want to bother too much.
"Xiucai rebelled, and it didn't work out in three years, besides, Zeng Jing is not the only one who shouts to rebel every day, let him go." Ouyang raised his eyebrows, threw the fold into the box on the ground next to him, and said with a smile to Yue Zhongqi, "Just treat it as if it's nothing, give Zhang Xi a sum of money for the journey, and drive him away." ”
Yue Zhongqi was stunned, dumbfounded, and didn't speak for a long time. Until he followed Zhang Tingyu out of the palace and stood outside the palace gate, he still felt like a mess in his head.
Zhang Tingyu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Go back, take a bath, and go to bad luck." ”
The minister left, Ouyang left the thirteenth and the eighth to eat, so he found a pavilion by the mountains and rivers, arranged for the two younger brothers to sit down, and he went to pick up his daughter-in-law by himself.
As soon as they saw Zhiyun, Yun Yu and Yun Xiang hurriedly got up and smiled and saluted: "My brother has seen the fourth sister-in-law. ”
Zhiyun also smiled, carefully looked at the eighth and thirteenth brothers, and said, "It seems that the eighth and thirteenth brothers are in good health, and the long live master was very worried a while ago." However, you two should pay more attention to health, you are not young men, your body and bones can't withstand the toss, if you can not take medicine, don't take medicine, food supplements are the best......"
Ouyang glared at his two younger brothers, helped Zhiyun, walked in slowly, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, who doesn't know that my daughter-in-law is the best at maintaining health, and our family's meals are the healthiest, and I just want them to study hard, don't always eat those greasy ones all day long, so I only left the eighth brother and the thirteenth brother to eat today, but you don't care about them, the most important thing is to eat well." ”
As he spoke, he carefully sat down on the stone bench with his wife in his arms, personally arranged the side dishes for Zhiyun, and took a white porcelain bowl, filled a bowl of fragrant and light lotus leaf porridge, and put it in front of Zhiyun's eyes.
"Let's see, are these dishes to your liking?"
Zhiyun didn't mind showing affection in front of the eighth and thirteenth, so Ouyang picked the vegetables into the bowl for her, held the porridge bowl, and drank it slowly.
After a while, a few people had lunch, and the eighth and thirteenth were full of food, saying that it was light, but there was a lot of meat that should be there, and the two of them were not satisfied.
After resting for a while, after eating, Ouyang and his two younger brothers had a few more gossips, and when Shen was ready, the eighth and thirteenth drove the carriage back home.
Before leaving, Yun Yu and Yun Xiang carried a bucket of tea, the tea bucket was carved by Ouyang Xianlai himself, not big, only half a palm high, the bamboo used is the ordinary green bamboo planted in the palace, but Ouyang is skillful, carved very delicately.
Yun Xi not only loves this fine tea, but also loves this pair of bamboo tubes, especially the words engraved by Ouyang on the bamboo tube - 'Tranquility Zhiyuan' - and even ignored the laughter of the thirteenth brother Yunxiang, held it in the palm of his hand and rubbed it carefully, and he couldn't bear to let go of it for a long time.
Sending away his younger brother, Ouyang still had government affairs, and went to the study, and Zhiyun took the maids and daughters-in-law back to the house directly, as soon as she entered the house, Zhiyun felt a little tired, tilted her body, and leaned on the big pillow half-lying and half-leaning.
But after a while, October followed into the house, squatted and saluted: "Master, do you want to bathe?" The minions prepared warm water for you? After speaking, seeing Zhiyun lazily refusing to move, blinking a pair of big eyes, she actually brought a little pitiful little appearance, she didn't feel coke, shook her head, got up and took the porcelain basin, mixed it with hot water, carefully put Zhiyun's feet in the basin, and rubbed it gently, her movements were very slow, very careful, and she recognized the acupoints very accurately, which could not only help the master soothe and soothe, but also never hurt the child.
Zhiyun is pregnant and can't soak in hot springs, and even the half-plane spring of life doesn't dare to soak in it, but at night and October, they all remember to help their master soak his feet and massage it.
This hand-massaging technique is actually the best in July, but she is currently running back and forth between Floating City and the other two planes.
The stall is too big, and now there are two girls in July and October, and at most only one can stay with Zhiyun.
Ouyang is also working hard, a while ago, when he went to bed at night, Zhiyun always tossed and turned and couldn't sleep steadily, his calves were swollen so badly, and he didn't dare to eat the potions, eat more, and could only use a little bit to recuperate, but today was good, and the next day he was swollen, and his whole body was tired and sluggish, there was no way, in order to make his daughter-in-law suffer less, Ouyang had to help her massage, use a towel to compress it, and sometimes toss it for a night.
After dawn, Zhiyun can still continue to sleep, and sleep peacefully during the day, the impact is not too big, but Ouyang is more miserable, he is the emperor, there are many government affairs, and it is not easy to hide and be idle, but take a nap, when the sky is not dawn, you have to get up and go to the court, and be an emperor, like the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, if you don't go to court for thirty years, there is no big problem, but the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, even if you don't go to court for a few days, the imperial historians can lift the Jinluan Palace......
Speaking of which, Ouyang can toss his son and younger brother hard, in addition to wanting to be lazy, maybe because he is really unbalanced in his heart.
Fortunately, there has been nothing to do recently, Zhiyun is refreshed, healthy, and the child in her belly is also a lot more peaceful, which finally makes Ouyang breathe a sigh of relief, and he can sleep peacefully at night......
Lying down, Zhiyun felt a little confused, so she closed her eyes, and when she saw that she was tired, she muttered - 'It's still early before dark', but she didn't wake her up, just helped Zhiyun build a blanket and put down the curtains.
I don't know how long I slept, in a daze, Zhiyun vaguely felt that someone was exhaling in his ear, instinctively, a slap was thrown, and there was a snap, and then he heard Ouyang's hoarse cry of pain, Zhiyun opened his eyes and woke up.
"Lady, you are so ruthless"
Zhiyun yawned, raised his hand and sat up on his father-in-law's neck, and with one side of his head, a coquettish eye flew away: "Isn't Xianggong also 'willing'?" Why don't you want to dodge? ”
Obviously, Zhiyun's temptation was full, she just made a gesture and wanted to move forward, and suddenly saw Ouyang quickly withdraw like a fried hair, stretching out her two arms, carefully supporting her waist, but the person was far away, took a deep breath, coughed, and said seriously: "Lady, you and I are just beautiful and delicious, you can't swallow it at this time, and stay a few months less, Xianggong will definitely comfort the lady's ......."
Zhiyun couldn't help laughing, his eyes looked down, it was too dark, the lights in the room were dim, so he couldn't see if his boss had reacted, but looking at his appearance as if he was facing a great enemy, he also had a sense of accomplishment, but he didn't dare to do more no matter how angry he was, in case he really provoked himself, it would be terrible.
The window hung with the bamboo curtain of Xiangfei was wide open, the moon was bright, the evening breeze was cool, Zhiyun sat up leaning on Ouyang's shoulder, and suddenly felt a little hungry, she couldn't eat at all in the first few months, but recently she had a big appetite and ate more than Ouyang.
Touching her stomach, Zhiyun beckoned October to go to the kitchen to cook some noodle soup, "Just make some casually, it's simpler." ”
October answered, after a while, the fragrant noodle soup was brought up, although simple, but the soup was mellow and delicious, the best lean meat was selected as the base, and the tender cabbage was just appetizing.
Zhiyun held the porcelain bowl, put a spoonful of chili sauce in it, tasted it, felt that the taste was not strong enough, and added two more spoonfuls, seeing that Ouyang and October looked at each other.
This is made of Chaotian pepper, usually Ouyang has to drink a jar of water when he eats a little, at this time, when he saw his daughter-in-law taking a small sip, he ate a bowl of noodle soup slowly and methodically, and couldn't help but feel furious: "Daughter-in-law, isn't it spicy?" ”
"It's okay, the craftsmanship is good in October, and I'll do more preparations in the future." Zhiyun nodded with satisfaction and put down the bowl, but suddenly frowned and hesitated, "Isn't there an old saying, called sour and spicy girls, my baby won't be a girl." ”
Ouyang was stunned, rubbed his fingers, and said: "Maybe, a girl is a girl, our three sons are only one daughter, how round and lonely, it's not bad to give her a sister." ”
Zhiyun fell on the bed all of a sudden, picked up the cushion next to her to cover her face, and muttered, "It's better to be a son, worry-free"
It's not that she is patriarchal, but mainly because she thinks that the belly may be a girl, she thinks of Yuanyuan's marriage, Honghao and Hongday are about to get married, and Yuanyuan's marriage can't be delayed.
Last month, Ouyang Gang invented the decree to seal Yuanyuan as Princess Gulun Huairui, since she was canonized, she naturally wanted to get married, but so far, Zhiyun still has not selected a son-in-law, and there are candidates, one is Zhang Ruowei, the son of Zhang Tingyu's family, and Erong'an, the son of the Ortai family.
These two people are young talents, Zhiyun thought about it for a long time, and her mind swayed from side to side.
In fact, Fu Heng is not bad, Ouyang and Honghao think that Fu Heng is very good, but Zhiyun feels that he is too much younger than Yuanyuan, although it can't be seen on the surface - Fu Heng's guy has always been like a little adult, mature in heart, Yuanyuan was born thin and small, raised until now, they are all big girls, but they are tender, they are still like fourteen or fifteen-year-old girls, she and Fu Heng are quite familiar, standing together, most of the time it is Fu Heng who is taking care of Yuanyuan, not Yuanyuan, who is a sister and takes care of his younger brother.
Closing her eyes, Ouyang gently massaged her head, but she thought about Zhang Ruowei and E Rong'an again and again.
In terms of family background, the two are comparable, Zhang Ruowei's father is Zhang Tingyu, Zhiyun is very familiar with it, she knows the roots, Zhang Ruowei's child she has also seen many times, not only born rich and handsome, excellent literary talent, especially good at calligraphy and painting.
Zhiyun has seen her paintings of landscapes, flowers and birds, although she is young, her paintings are much better than Zhiyun, and they are much more spiritual.
Zhang Ruowei has a good temperament, gentle and tranquil, with a gentleman's style, and wants to be a good husband, but he is a Han Chinese, and if he wants to be the master, he has to ask Ouyang to think of a good excuse.
As for E Rong'an, compared with Zhang Ruowei, he is a little less elegant, but more chic, since he was a child, he has never left his sword, he has a good kung fu, and his heroic appearance is also in line with Yuanyuan's preferences......
It's just that the fathers of these two people, one is Zhang Tingyu, the other is Ortai, and the two of them are still ' 'Rivals', they don't like each other, they have to fight for everything, Zhang Tingyu won't say it, he has long been in the middle of the circle, and he vigorously advocated that his sister Ruyan went to Zhiyun's side to beat the side drum, Ortai's daughter-in-law is Guarjia's family, and the relationship with Zhiyun's family is quite close, and they also enter the palace from time to time to show off their baby son, Zhang Ruowei and Erong'an, and they are all Yuliang, one writer and one martial artist, both have great talents, and they all appreciate Yuanyuan very much, and they are also very filial, so they naturally have to obey their father's wishes......
Who said that the emperor's daughter is not worried about getting married, there are too many people to ask for, and it is not easy to choose.
After pondering like this, there was no sleepiness, Zhiyun simply got up and lit the lamp and candle, "Xianggong, I can't sleep anyway, why don't you call October and Qiao'er to come in and play mahjong?" ”
Ouyang nodded and said with a smile: "Okay." ”
Suddenly there was a wind outside, the weather became cooler, no longer so stuffy, October brought a team of palace ladies into the house, neatly furnished, a square table with red sandalwood legs was placed in the center, chairs carved with dragon and phoenix patterns were placed on all sides, soft cushions were taken, so that Zhiyun could sit comfortably, and a glass of juice was placed next to her, and it was not suitable to drink tea at night.
Ouyang signaled, the two maids did not twist, and it was not once or twice to play chess with the master on weekdays, sit down steadily, and then start playing chess, and the loser put a strip of cloth on his head.
It's just that these chess games are really unfair, Ouyang and Zhiyun can't lose with their eyes closed, and October's mental power is also first-class, and they remember the cards very accurately, as a result, after a few laps, the Qiao'er girl almost didn't shed tears, her face was full of strips of cloth, colorful and green, and it was coke, which made the other three laugh.
In the end, Zhiyun couldn't see it, she was embarrassed to always bully the little girl, so she took the initiative to release the water and let her win a few handfuls.
played until the middle of the month, Zhiyun felt sleepy, and that's it.
Zhiyun's pregnancy career, on the whole, is not too bad, full of comfort.
She has always been cold and hot, annoying, headache-making hot weather, which is difficult for other pregnant women, but it has little impact on her.
However, as soon as the weather is hot, Zhiyun likes to eat fruits as meals, anyway, she is not short of fruits, there are many fruits and vegetables in the half-plane and the floating city, there are no geographical and seasonal restrictions, even if it is a cold winter, Zhiyun wants to eat a watermelon, banana, orange and the like, it is very easy, not to mention that this is the season when melons and fruits are fragrant.
Zhiyun ordered people to get some bananas, strawberries, plums, apricots, apples, pears, grapes, these melons and fruit roots are made into juice, puree, or cut into pieces with rock sugar, and use bamboo skewers as snacks.
Seeing that Zhiyun eats fruits all day long, he doesn't feel anything when he arrives in October, anyway, his own master eats not too little, and he likes to use some fruits and vegetables, which is not a bad thing, but Grandma Cui can't see it, and she is worried that Zhiyun will hurt her stomach, so she will say a few words in total.
Cui Mama was called by Zhiyun last year, and gave her a step-nephew as a stepson, the child is an honest and good child, and she is very filial to Cui Mama, Cui Mama is old, Zhiyun feels sorry for her, in fact, she is also afraid of her nagging, so she let her go out of the palace to follow her son and daughter-in-law to enjoy happiness.
Last month, her daughter-in-law just gave birth to a big fat grandson, who weighed eight pounds after birth, and made Mama Cui so happy, and specially begged Zhiyun to give her a big name, which is called Tianshou, hoping that this child will be blessed and longevity, and be safe and secure for the rest of his life.
Originally, Zhiyun didn't plan to summon Cui Mama back, but a while ago, she was weak, and a few girls in October were very worried, and after thinking for a long time, they didn't say hello to Zhiyun, so they sent a letter to Cui Mama, and as a result, Cui Mama's daughter-in-law didn't finish the confinement, so she entered the palace with the burden of money, and re-became the housekeeper of Chuxiu Palace for her master, not to mention, there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, there is Cui Mama in charge, Zhiyun's small life is more and more comfortable, of course, if Cui Mama's mouth can be more leisurely, she will be more satisfied.
On this day, after Zhiyun took a nap, before she got up, she made a plate of pears in October as usual, used a little cold, tried it, and it was not too cold, so she brought it to Zhiyun to enjoy.
As a result, Zhiyun just took two bites. Cui Mama slapped it according to October's hand, asked Qiao'er to take the fruit plate away, frowned, and said: "My good master, it's about to be dinner, you have eaten now, where can you still eat serious rice, come, Mama made you lily white fungus soup, as well as crystal steamed dumplings, and then look at this milk steamed chicken cake, burnt and yellow, delicious and tight." ”
Zhiyun is as good as a stream, anyway, Mama Cui's craftsmanship is not bad, it's a big deal to run out of dinner, and then hide and eat fruit, can Mama Cui keep staring at her?
After eating the fragrant meal, and using a little porridge, after resting for a while, the sun fell outside, Zhiyun changed into refreshing clothes, and took a few palace maids to the garden in October, admired the flowers and plants for a while, and took a fishing rod to sit on the edge of the lotus pond and fished two koi, but the carp was not big, Zhiyun didn't want it, and released it again.
When I returned to Ningju, I was a little sweaty, Zhiyun was too lazy, and her belly was big, so she didn't go to the half-plane to bathe, so she simply poured on the rattan rocking chair and flipped through an idle book at will, and sent them to prepare hot water in October.
The ladies were all well-trained, and in a short time, the right temperature water, towels, absolutely natural lavender essence, bath cream and shampoo were all ready.
Zhiyun's bathroom was as big as a swimming pool, supported by October, sitting on the steps inlaid with white porcelain, October held her green silk like water, washed it, and wiped the hair oil of the protector, Qiao'er wiped her back, and applied lavender essential oil to her body little by little.
While painting, several little palace maids chirped and praised their master's good skin, the little girls were in their youth, and their voices were crisp and pleasant, listening to them like yellow orioles singing.
Zhiyun also thought it was very beautiful, so she let them go, just listen to the song.
After the massage, Zhiyun exhaled comfortably, and the palace maids poured mild rose essence into the bath for her, squinting her eyes comfortably, and the little girls were quiet at this time.
After soaking for a while, suddenly a big hand lifted her hair, gently and gently massaged her scalp, Zhiyun smiled, looked up lazily, held the slender big hand, and turned her head, and saw Ouyang kneeling behind her, her eyes were 'treacherous'......
"Daughter-in-law, you can't take a bath for too long......"
With a little potion powder added to nourish the body, the water in the bath was light purple, and Ouyang couldn't see too much, but only the bare fragrant shoulders were already more tempting than the 'spring garden'.
It's a pity, you can't eat it, Ouyang sighed secretly, took off her robe, bent down to pick up Zhiyun, rested on the rattan chair next to her, and took a big towel to wrap her body, although it was summer, but it was about to be autumn, the weather was cooler, the wind was cold, and his daughter-in-law was pregnant and frozen.
Ouyang took a towel, first dried his daughter-in-law's hair, then took nail clippers, and trimmed her nails, Zhiyun didn't like to wear nail polish, only the index finger and middle finger were pasted with 'six-pointed star' nail stickers, and dullness was added to them, which was used to exercise the flexibility of the fingers, but Ouyang liked to use sky blue nail polish to add color to his daughter-in-law's pink nails.
Since Ouyang likes it, most of the time, Zhiyun accepts it with a smile.
Ouyang is attached to his daughter-in-law's slender hands, her eyebrows and eyes are gentle, and she always likes to hang cold eyes, black and translucent. Zhiyun's gaze crossed his handsome face from the center of his eyebrows, and fell on his slender and straight body, the purse around his waist was old, although it was extremely well preserved, but it was already slightly pale......
Zhiyun hooked her lips, although she made a female red needlework from time to time, but for more than ten years, she had only pierced this one purse for Ouyang, and she didn't pay attention to it, but he had always been on his body, and it had been so many years, and the purse had become old, so that outsiders could see it, it was really a bit unusual...... While you're free, it's better to prick him up.
Ouyang said with a smile while 'serving' his daughter-in-law: "What do you think of Yuanyuan's marriage?" I think you have to choose from Zhang Ruowei and Erong'an, Erong'an is better, the people of the Zhang family are always too romantic, don't look at Zhang Ruowei's young age, but his peach blossom luck is no worse than his father, it is said that a few years ago, there was a young lady from the Han family who took the initiative to stuff a purse into his hand regardless of reserve, and Zhang Tingyu's guy boasted a lot about it...... In this regard, Erong An has done a much better job, at least, he can still control the female color. ”
Zhiyun snorted, and couldn't help but smile and shake her head: "You, you're embarrassed to say this, you don't know what your three precious sons did, right?" ”
Because Yuanyuan's husband has decided to choose between the two, Honghao encouraged Hongtian to find a large number of beauties of all colors, Huan Fat Yan Thin, all kinds of them, and their temperaments are also different-
Some are gentle, some are spicy, some are good at singing and dancing, some are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, some are bright and charming, and some are like girls in the south of the Yangtze River, beautiful and delicate.
These women took turns to meet Zhang Ruowei and Erong An, what heroes saved the beauty, what sold themselves to bury their fathers, and they couldn't get blood.
Those women are not simple, they have personalities, and they don't have a single vulgar thing. Some are reduced to Qinglou, but they are peerless beauties who are out of the mud and are not stained, and some are chaste martyrs who were robbed by the princes and magnates, but would rather die than give in. They used this trick to make it rotten, and in just two months, they made the two beautiful sons tired, and they saw all the methods of girls in the world, and the results were remarkable.
Thinking of the wife of the Ortai family, his sister ran to the palace, wanted to stop talking, and said that her son had not been able to sleep and eat recently, and had been nesting in the study all day, and did not dare to go out at all, and there were still young and beautiful girls knocking on the door from time to time at the door, and said that his son had been in conflict with the nobles in the capital every day recently.
What else can Zhiyun do, he can only endure it and can't hear it, and he has to follow the words of the wife of the Ortai family, and follow the number of people who have recently failed to maintain public security in Gyeonggi, the Yamen of the Criminal Department is not good, and the children of the Eight Banners of Manchuria are too idle, etc.
In this regard, Zhang Ruowei has adapted well, he is worthy of being a talent, and he is still the son of Zhang Tingyu's family, he is very smart, except for being overwhelmed at the beginning, he will not take it seriously in the future.
There are women who sell themselves to bury their fathers to block the way, people take a detour, there are girls jumping into the river in front of him, people say that they don't know how to water, they can't save people, at most they command the subordinates who pretend to be passers-by to fish up the girls, sigh two sentences The weather is cold, the little girl must not catch a cold, hurry up and see the doctor, in short, don't say a word, meet the gentleman brother deliberately provoked trouble, he can be more unreasonable than the gentleman, in short, Hongday is not a little bit of a way to take him, but he is so sophisticated, Hongday is still unwilling to marry his twin sister to him.
Although the performance of the two people is one sophisticated, the other is not mature enough, but in general, they have never been blinded by women, both are good, Hongtian played for a while, played happily, ran back to Zhiyun Dao, I really can't say which one is better, if Yuanyuan doesn't care, just let God decide, write two notes, and let Yuanyuan draw lots.
I really had a headache about this matter for a long time, and even such a very ridiculous idea, Zhiyun almost had to think about it, but it was just a matter of thinking about it.
"What's wrong with the sons? Among the three boys, Honghao is steady, and he also knows 'borrowing a knife to kill', encouraging his younger brother to go, watching the excitement by himself, having the atmosphere of a prince, Hongtian is also clever, he can come up with so many tricks, how can he be regarded as a flexible head, Hongxi is the youngest, and the most honest and obedient, but at a young age, he knows that he feels sorry for his sister, and I am also very satisfied......"
Looking at Ouyang's slightly smug face, Zhiyun was speechless.
In the sixth year of Yongzheng, on the ninth day of the ninth month of September, with one loud cry after another, Zhiyun and Ouyang's second daughter, Princess Baoyin, was finally born in Chuxiu Palace.
This, who dominated the harem ten years later, tossed all the children of the Eight Banners of Manchuria retreated, made the young emperor Honghao who had ascended the throne anxious, and seized the title of "Little Overlord of the Capital" of her brother Hongday, at this moment, is still a little baby nested in her emperor Ama's arms, crying non-stop.
"Yo, this girl really has a lot of strength."
Ouyang put his daughter in Zhiyun's arms, touched his chest that was kicked with a dull pain, and said with a smile, "I look at this child, he was born heavier than Hongtian and Yuanyuan combined, don't look at it as a girl, to the same as Hongxi, the sound here is also loud, not like Yuanyuan, and the cry when I was a child was like a kitten." ”
Zhiyun nodded with a smile and patted her daughter's sturdy body affectionately, "Don't grow into a weird girl in the future, if you can't get married, you will have a headache for me." ”
"How so? No matter how difficult it is, it won't be as difficult as our Yuanyuan to get married, right? Ouyang Waner said.
Yuan Yuan frowned when he heard this, glared at his own Huang Ama, bared his teeth in displeasure, and muttered in his mouth: "Huang Ama likes his sister, but don't bury his daughter, her daughter is obviously a serious Manchurian aunt and grandmother, bending her bow and shooting, there is nothing that can't be done, it's the fifth brother's bunch of fox friends and dog friends, few of them can compare to their daughters, where is weak?" When it comes to not being able to get married, it's even more ...... There's no such thing......" - Hongtian rolled his eyes on the side, and his own sister didn't want to think about who she was? Is it the precious daughter of the emperor's mother, the noble princess of the Qing Dynasty, do they dare to be disrespectful to the princess? Don't care what it's like, always give way...... If you talk about fist and foot kung fu, those boys are really not as round as half-hangers, and it is estimated that their own emperor Ama and the crown prince should cry. As for the issue of 'getting married', Hongday, who had a headache about it, directly ignored it.
Although Yuanyuan was not very satisfied with her own Amma's words, her mood of liking her sister had not changed, so she still pulled Hongyang's sleeve and stepped forward to look at her sister-in-law.
Newborn babies rarely look beautiful in spirit, but the little girl in front of them is very different, although they haven't opened their eyes yet, but the general snow-white and pink lotus, smooth and flawless skin, but not ordinary babies can compare, even in the mother's womb has been taken care of very well, their brothers and sisters, when they were born, probably not as healthy and beautiful as this girl.
And...... Very powerful.
As soon as Yuanyuan's hand was stretched out, his sister-in-law was grabbed and didn't pull it back for a long time, Yuanyuan was suddenly startled, blinked, and said with a wry smile: "My sister is really lively." ”
The little doll grabbed Yuanyuan's hand, and after a while, she spit bubbles and fell asleep obediently, Yuanyuan carefully pulled her hand out of the doll's palm, touched her soft little arm, and somehow, her heart suddenly became hot, and a different taste rose.
Round temperament,Quiet since childhood,It's good to say quiet,Strictly speaking,It's enough to be autistic.,In addition to being close to family and friends.,I don't feel uncomfortable.,Every time you face to face with outsiders.,Although it's not so unbearable.,But in the end, I don't like it.。
As she gets older, when she gets married no matter what, Yuanyuan also understands in her heart that this is what she has to face, when a woman grows up, she has to leave her home and go to a strange family to run another life......
Yuanyuan was very worried, even if she understood that as a princess Gulun and the queen's concubine, she would definitely not be bullied by others, even if it was Huang Ama and Huang Eniang, and her brothers were very concerned about her marriage, and made up their minds, even if they were chosen, they would choose a good husband for her, she still didn't like it......
Zhiyun looked at the complicated expression on her daughter's face, raised her hand, touched her face, and with a force, she took her daughter into her arms and said with a smile: "Yuanyuan, when Baoyin passes the full moon, your family affairs will be decided." ”
Chuxiu Palace was suddenly quiet, Honghao, Hongday, Hongxi, who was sitting at the head of the bed and hugging the emperor's mother, and Ouyang, who was standing aside, all widened their eyes and stared at their round faces.
Yuan Yuan smiled this time, his eyebrows and eyes were sparse, he bit his lip, no longer resisted, and nodded vigorously.
All of a sudden, the men in the room exhaled, let go of the burden in their hearts, and muttered with a round face: "The daughter should be content, the princess of the world, especially the princess of the Qing Dynasty, there are a few who can choose their own son-in-law like their daughter, besides, even if they don't want an eyesore husband, the child still wants it......"
“…… You Nizi, you must not let Mama Cui hear this, otherwise, she should nag again. ”
Cui Mama now loves Yuanyuan as Zhiyun, and refuses to relax her rules at all, sighing in front of Zhiyun several times, for a while she doesn't want the princess to marry, and for a while she is worried that the princess will marry too late, and the good men will be picked up by others, so that Zhiyun doesn't know how to comfort her.
The little princess grew up healthy and healthy, this is the first daughter of Ouyang since she ascended the throne, whether it is 'washing three' or full moon wine, it is all grand and, Hongday, this kid is even more jumping and following the nonsense, and actually put the flowing water seat on the street of the capital, saying that it is to let the people of the city touch the blessing of the princess.
The flowing water seat was set up for three days, and the silver flowed out like water, of course, it was not Ouyang who paid the money, but the royal clan who was robbed by Hongyang.
However, the overseas trade has been good recently, and the silver earned by the royal family and clansmen, as long as the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren are not all losers, they will probably never be able to spend it again, and they will not be stingy with this little money, on the contrary, since they see that the princess is so fond of the princess, there are many people who take the opportunity to pat on the back, and the full moon wine is down, and the little girl has only been born for a short time, and she has become a little rich woman.
Zhiyun happily put all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry received by her daughter, as well as many very special small objects and small gifts into the box, and planned to give her to her when her daughter grew up.
After the full moon of Baoyin, Yuanyuan really no longer shirked, and personally went to the garden to pick up a fiery 'Tanhua', wrapped it in red silk, and sent it to Erong'an......
The dust has settled.
After sending flowers and returning to the Forbidden City, Hongtian was relieved, but couldn't help but be sour and uncomfortable, hugged Yuanyuan, drooped his head and said unhappily: "What are you doing with his canna, isn't the chrysanthemum also blooming?" ”
Chrysanthemum? This kid can tell...... Fortunately, he didn't say anything about white chrysanthemums, otherwise, Zhiyun would have to commit domestic violence.
Yuanyuan patted Hongday, ignored him, and continued to embroider his dowry quietly, since the future was determined, Yuanyuan no longer hesitated, when Zhiyun stuffed the investigation report on the Xilin Jueluo family to her, she also obediently took it and began to straighten out the interpersonal relationship of the future in-law's family, although she is a princess, Ouyang has also ordered that the Internal Affairs Office start to repair the princess's mansion for Yuanyuan, but in the end, she is about to get married, and she will be a member of Xilin Jueluo's family in the future, and it is not a bad thing to know more about the situation of her husband's family.
A will to marry Princess Gulun Huairui to Ortai's eldest son Erong'an, can be regarded as suppressing the turbulent tide of the capital for more than a year, Ortai is now straight, fortunately he is low-key and stable, not to attract resentment, of course, Zhang Tingyu is a little angry, but he is a Han Chinese, for his son Shangzhu, there is not much hope, if it is not for the relationship with the royal family and Ruyan, he is such a stable person, but he dare not think about this.
However, Yuanyuan's marriage to the son of his old rival did make Zhang Tingyu uncomfortable for a while. It is said that since the princess's marriage was confirmed, Lan Jue did not dare to go to his uncle's house for several days, for fear that his uncle would spill his anger on his head.
Zhang Ruyan adapts well, although she wants to match Yuanyuan to her family, but after all, she is married to Mingde, and she has a close relationship with the Ortai family on weekdays, and she also knows that Erongan is a good person, she has talent, ability, and good looks, I don't know how many Manchurian daughters like it, Yuanyuan's choice, she has nothing to pick, of course, even if Zhang Tingyu has opinions, she can only hold back and can't say it.
Autumn is coming, and the autumn breeze is cooler.
Yuanyuan wore a thick cloak, sat in the warm pavilion of Chuxiu Palace and tied a purse, Zhiyun leaned on the big pillow to accompany her, the craftsmanship of the two mothers is good, however, Yuanyuan is better, after all, it is embroidering his own dowry, serious and concentrated, but it is not Zhiyun's embroidery and play.
"Yuanyuan...... See what I've brought you back? ”
Sweating profusely, Hongtian barged through the door and leaned over with a strange smile on his face.
Yuan Yuan didn't speak, Zhiyun shook his head first and said: "What do you look like, the rules are a little bit, you have already made a marriage, you are not a child anymore." ”
"Hehe......" Hongtian reacted at this time, touched his head and knelt down on one knee to greet his own emperor's mother, "Erchen please ask the emperor's mother." ”
"Alright...... In October, wipe the face of the fifth elder brother. Zhiyun shook his head, put down the needle and thread in his hand, watched October bring hot water, twisted the handkerchief, helped Hongtian wipe his face, took his clothes again, and asked him to change into the back, until Hongtian was completely cleaned up, Zhiyun smiled and asked, "What's the good thing?" Look at you. ”
"Huang Eniang, this is not a good thing for my son, but a good thing for my family."
Zhiyun curled her lips, shook her head and smiled: "Did you get something new for your sister again?" "Recently, for the sake of Yuanyuan's dowry, not only the Internal Affairs Office has been busy, Honghao, Hongday, and Hongxi are all following to help, all kinds of strange and useless things are piled up in the small treasury where Zhiyun is preparing for her daughter's marriage.
"A good thing indeed. My sister saw it and definitely liked it. Hongtian mysteriously took out a small blue bag from his sleeve and stuffed it into Yuanyuan's hand.
Jet-black hair is tied into a loop, decorated with a red jade heart-shaped pendant, the front is engraved with 'a lifetime', the back is 'a pair', extremely beautiful italic small characters, although the carving seems a little rusty, but there is a serious energy inside......
The round hand trembled, as if he saw a handsome young man with a face like jade, sitting under the lamplight, cutting off his hair, and seeing him seriously holding a carving knife in his hand, writing this sentence of Nalan Rongruo - 'One life and one couple'......
No matter what happens in the future, at this moment, his heart is real.
Yuan Yuan reached out and picked up the pendant, carefully resting it in his personal purse, and his face was as usual when he did it, as if he had not been ashamed at all, but when he lowered his head and brushed his hair, he revealed a pair of small pink ears
Zhiyun smiled, but she didn't make fun of her baby girl......
Time flies, and it's midsummer again.
In Zhiyun's Chuxiu Palace, there are dozens of new magnolias, at this time it is the flowering period, all are open, the petals are pink and tender, the color of jade white, the fragrance is fragrant, attracting bees and butterflies to come here to play, there was just a drizzle last night, a few new shoots emerged at the top, looking at it makes people feel very comfortable.
The day was not too hot, so Zhiyun asked Qiao'er to follow October to take the ice hidden in the ice cellar and make a few bowls of fried ice, which were poured with mellow and sweet honey and fruit pulp.
This kind of natural cold drink, in Zhiyun's heart, is no worse than those modern ice creams.
Zhiyun and Ouyang sat side by side on the recliner, one person with a spoon, and one bowl of food, in the end, it was cold food, and the two of them didn't eat much, just one person ate half a bowl.
"Do more? Even if our ice is not valuable, it cannot be wasted. ”
Ouyang said with a smile, "Come on, send some to the thirteenth master, and save me from missing my brothers." After finishing speaking, he instructed Gao Fu to serve them in glass bowls and send them to the homes of the princes and military ministers, and after distributing the rest, let October and the little palace maids, little eunuchs and grandmothers enjoy it.
The eunuchs and palace maids of Chuxiu Palace smiled one by one, and thanked their masters with a smile, they were all young people, and after a while, the entire Chuxiu Palace was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
In summer, ice is still very precious in the capital after all, even the masters of the palace, except for Zhiyun and Ouyang, can rarely enjoy it, but the minions of Chuxiu Palace are touched by the light of the queen's mother, so that they can eat some 'good things' from time to time.
After noon, the sun was a little lighter, Zhiyun and Ouyang sat on the edge of the pond, one made a painting case, the other carried a fishing rod, Zhiyun looked at the clear pond, exhaled lazily, frowned, and said: "Since the children got married one by one two months ago, my Chuxiu Palace is a lot more deserted, and I am really not used to it...... Well, very unaccustomed to ......"
Ouyang suddenly laughed: "What nonsense, Yuanyuan has only been married for two months, and she has been back to the palace for more than ten days, what is the princess's mansion uncomfortable, but it has been modified four times, and she has barely adapted to it recently......"
When Zhiyun heard this, she didn't care about the sadness of the spring and autumn, she also shook her head, frowned, and said, "You still dare to say that it's not all what you are used to." After all, we Yuanyuan has been married, that is, modern, and I haven't seen any married daughter run to her mother's house when she sees Tian'er, and now there is no such rule, Ortai is your valued courtier, and you have always respected you, Yuanyuan is a princess, ordinary people dare not offend, no one dares to gossip about her actions, if someone else is so reckless, I don't know what it will be like"
On the day Yuanyuan got married, Ouyang, this guy was very shameless and kept sending his daughter out of the palace, his eyes were red, tears fell, and he almost regretted it, refusing to marry his daughter, and shouting that if Erongan dared to bully Yuanyuan, he would definitely knock on the door and demolish Erongan's kid...... Zhiyun saw that the trouble was too unreasonable, and personally went out to take Ouyang away, so that the wedding could continue.
At that time, the 'thrilling scene' almost didn't scare Rong'an who came to greet him to faint to death, and several elders of the Ministry of Rites were stunned with their eyes rolling and falling down. Fortunately, the imperial doctor rescued him in time, so he didn't have a life, and after that, several old adults wrote books one after another, accusing the emperor of being 'unorthodox', and the harsh words were almost equivalent to directly pointing at the nose of the long-lived lord and scolding him for being 'embarrassed'.
It is said that after finishing the book, several old adults went home to arrange the funeral, and waited for a glass of dove wine or three-foot white silk for Long Live Ye, of course, Ouyang was not so 'two', and these old men were too worried.
Zhiyun thought about it and thought it was funny, he really should let those companions who have been praising his boss for his wisdom and martial arts see what kind of virtue Ouyang, the 'slave', has.
After a while, a palm-long, three-color koi was caught by Ouyang and thrown into the basin, Ouyang stretched out his hand to stir the water, and said with a smile: "Thirteen praised his fish to the heavens and the earth, I want to taste it, is it really as good as he said." ”
Zhiyun rolled her eyes, spread out the rice paper, and began to paint her ink paintings again, flowers, birds, insects and fish, all that caught her eyes were beautiful scenery, and she no longer paid attention to Ouyang, the tyrannical guy.
It's just that if Thirteen knew that his fourth brother actually treated his baby carp like this, probably ...... I'm going to wipe my nose with anger.
A few days ago, the thirteenth saw that there were not a few fish in the pond of Chuxiu Palace, (recently Ouyang likes to fish, and all kinds of ornamental fish in it were caught and sacrificed to the Five Organs Temple) So, he specially sent his own precious koi to honor his brother and sister-in-law.
You know, thirteen these days is a love of fish, I heard that he also bought a huge mackerel tank in the antique shop of Mingde's house to place his baby fish, placed outside his living room, when the sun is big, to build a shed for them to shade, the weather is too cold, but also to wrap a quilt to keep warm, with the water is also a person who knows how to specially match, the most suitable for fish water.
If he saw his treasure being eaten alive by his dear fourth brother, maybe some people would have wanted to see the brother wall...... Belch...... It's unlikely, but at least he has to ignore his fourth brother for a few days.
"Good luck today, well, let October clean up a table of whole fish banquet in a while, please Thirteen also come to taste, don't say that when you are a brother, you don't want to be a brother."
Zhiyun held her breath and concentrated, putting all her thoughts on the painting, and didn't hear it, but, long live the lord, long live the lord, you really don't want to piss his baby brother to death?
Ouyang saw that his daughter-in-law ignored him, and felt bored, so he threw down the fishing rod and came over.
Zhiyun turned her head to look at him, picked up the rice paper spread on the painting case, and said, "Idle?" Eat some fruit, October used crushed ice to pour out all the melons and fruits I just took out of the half-plane, if you want to eat it, I'll let her bring it to you. ”
Zhiyun carefully looked at the koi fish flying out of the pond on the painting, the beautiful, delicate and vibrant magnolia, and the colorful butterflies and bees flying among the flowers, and nodded.
Well, she is a Chinese, a descendant of Yan and Huang, and the things of her ancestors can't be lost, or is ink painting more expressive of artistic conception...... Although at this moment, she doesn't understand what the so-called artistic conception is.
Zhiyun stretched out his hand and counted the finished works in the box next to him, there were about a dozen or so, all of which were newly painted in the last two months, which was much faster than others, of course, there were just as many discarded products, that is, these were not scrapped, and only a few were of the highest quality, and the others were in the eyes of connoisseurs, but they were just average, and they couldn't be put on the table.
Ouyang also looked down a few times, flipped it slightly, and said with a smile: "Pick a few good ones, I'll help you frame them, and they will be used as heirlooms for our family, passed down from generation to generation, so that your paintings will live forever...... Hehe, hundreds of years later, I don't know if someone will come out of adulthood to buy tens of millions of paintings of our queen mother and offer them home? ”
Zhiyun blinked, held her chin, and smiled, "Maybe it's really possible, when the time comes, my paintings will also be antiques, and they must be priceless, and they will be coveted by those art thieves and stored in museums...... Hehe, I wonder what kind of evaluation those who study history will give me? With these paintings handed down, I have to say that I am a talented woman who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting......"
After a moment of thought, Zhiyun touched her face again, and smiled quite narcissistically, "Moreover, not only is she a talented woman, but she must also be a beauty." ”
This Qing Dynasty, which has been changed beyond recognition, I don't know if there will be those Yongzheng Emperors who wear women to YY cold noodles in the future, and how should they evaluate her, the queen who has been favored for many years? Will there be a writer who writes about her, will she be written as a virtuous queen, or a vixen-like 'demon'?
"It's a pity that you can't compose poems, otherwise, I should really ask you to compose a few poems for me, and put them in our cloak in the future, waiting for future generations to discover them...... In this way, you give me a portrait, write a certain year to give your beloved wife Guarjia Zhiyun, and then stamp your private seal...... "Yes, the tomb of clothes, the one who will enter the emperor's mausoleum in the future can only be an empty coffin with clothes, she and Ouyang are going to pursue the true meaning of magic, that is, one day they will face death, and it will not be in this era, this Qing Dynasty, this Forbidden City."
Ouyang: "............"
The day when she can 'close the coffin' should not be far away, she and Ouyang have not looked old for decades, and now it is nothing, after all, as an emperor and queen, it is normal to be pampered and well maintained, there are many old concubines in the court, seventy or eighty are still about the same as thirty or forty, this is not strange, but it will always be the same, and in a few decades, no, it won't take that long at all, only after more than ten years, their appearance will not change again, I'm afraid someone will really have to gossip.
Zhiyun didn't want to paint old people's makeup, nor did she want to be regarded as a 'demon', so she could only leave the Forbidden City before that.
The hot summer will always pass, as if in the blink of an eye, the winter wind and snow are close at hand.
The north wind howled at night, blowing away the thick clouds in the sky, revealing a clear sky, and the blue color made Ouyang's mood feel good for a while, and even the snowflakes that fell on the window edge looked particularly cute in his eyes.
Zhiyun put the navy blue cloak on Ouyang's shoulder, and the little daughter who was wrapped like a cotton ball also stood in front of the bed, and the cold wind outside the house blew in, making her shiver, but she didn't feel refreshed, sighed, and watched the white mist rise......
Now the two of them are in Yueyang, Hunan, living in this inn, which is opened by the royal family, and there is a bustling street market near the window, opposite the Hunan General Administration set up by the Postal and Communications Division, Zhiyun looked from afar, only to see the postman wearing a dark blue uniform with a rucksack behind him, walking through the streets and alleys, these postmen are about to be very familiar, and from time to time one or two uncles and aunts will pop up to pull them to say a few words of gossip, stuff them with a few hot buns, and pour a bowl of hot tea.
A few children in thick winter clothes, while throwing snowballs, while chasing each other, after a while, actually came to Zhiyun's window, Zhiyun looked at their red fluttering little faces, smiled, kissed his baby daughter, and then took a few strings of sugar gourds made in October to please the master, grabbed a few handfuls of popcorn, and handed them out to the children to satisfy their hunger.
I kept looking at the children and thanked them happily, cheered and ran away, before I exhaled and said with a smile: "Xianggong, since you have come to Yueyang, how can you not go to the world-famous Yueyang Tower?" ”
Ouyang patted his daughter-in-law's head, and a warm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Okay, I'll go to Yueyang Tower tomorrow." ”
However, they left Beijing this time, not just because Zhiyun was bored and wanted to play, and not just because Ouyang wanted to test Honghao's governing ability again, but because at the end of this summer, there were river bandits in Zhejiang, Li Wei took the lead, and was seriously injured when he led the troops to suppress the bandits, and the news was transmitted back to the capital, Ouyang sent the imperial doctor to Zhejiang to treat Li Wei's injuries, and he didn't plan to go to see it in person. I don't think it's a serious injury, it's enough to have a doctor.
However, Li Weishang's secret fold said that it was not ordinary bandits who made trouble, but like the salt owls, there were secret strongholds, and those bandits had bows and crossbows in their hands, and most of them knew kung fu, and they were all capable.
As soon as Zhiyun heard Ouyang say this, she became curious and pondered...... It can't be the legendary Heaven and Earth Society, right? When I think of the Heaven and Earth Society, I think of that Chen Jinnan, and even think of Jin Lao - 'If you don't see Chen Jinnan in your life, it's in vain to call yourself a hero.'" ’
Although Chen Jinnan can no longer be seen now, it is not bad to look up to the 'Heaven and Earth Society' created by Chen Jinnan.
Because of pregnancy, Zhiyun, who hadn't left the Forbidden City for a long time, suddenly became wandering and planned to go to Jiangnan. This woman was also spoiled by Ouyang, and she refused to be wronged at all, thinking that one was one out.
Ouyang didn't plan to detain his daughter-in-law, the main reason why he wanted this position was to make his wife as comfortable as possible......
Anyway, he took advantage of his daughter-in-law's confinement to deal with all the government affairs that he had accumulated, and there were thirteen and prince Honghao in Beijing, and there was no big incident...... Even if something big really happened, when he heard the news and returned, it would only take a blink of an eye to delay anything.
Simply, Ouyang took Zhiyun with his little daughter, and only selected sixteen heavily armed guards from Ouyang's sticky pole and the floating city, and left the capital without even bringing the palace maids and eunuchs to wait.
Ouyang and Zhiyun were very concerned about Li Wei's injuries in the end, and they used the flying house to cheat along the way, and flew from Beijing to Zhejiang overnight, and even the imperial doctor didn't rush in front of them.
As a result, Li Wei's guy was comfortably nestled on the bed in the Governor's Palace, listening to the 'official drama', holding a wine cup in his hand, and drinking a little wine there.
Ouyang came suddenly, this kid didn't even have time to put on his clothes, and jumped out of bed to take over the car with his coat on.
Staring at Li Wei, whose arms and legs were very complete, Ouyang couldn't help grinding his teeth, the fold was so miserable, and what else did he say about nine deaths...... It seems that the next second is going to run out of breath.
Ouyang shook his head, ignoring Li Wei's embarrassment, "Hurry up and put on your clothes, and let your master wait for you outside?" ”
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Li Wei shrank his head, and hurriedly put his clothes on his body, but he couldn't help but slander in his stomach, this long-lived master is really elusive, I don't know if he has the ability to fly to the sky, otherwise how could he suddenly appear so suddenly to scare him......
If Ouyang and Zhiyun knew his thoughts, maybe they would have admired this kid's intuition, and he really guessed correctly, Ouyang and Zhiyun's abilities were almost the same as flying away.
Shocked to see the arrival of the Long Live Lord, Li Wei didn't panic, anyway, he was the protégé of the fourth master, and he still knew the temper of his master, this little thing would not annoy the master.
Lilisoso put on his clothes, and hurriedly ordered his subordinates to prepare hot water, waited for the two masters to wash, and ordered the guards to be stationed, and they were in a hurry, and when they could settle down and talk, it was almost dark.
"Okay, let's talk about it, what is the origin of the Jiang bandit who seriously injured Master Li Wei and Li? It's not clear what you wrote on the fold, it's really not like words. ”
Ouyang helped his wife to sit in the main seat, picked up a small snack that looked okay, and filled her stomach, because the people did not follow, Ouyang and Zhiyun had to do the food and clothing along the way, I have to say, the so-called 'from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift', these two people are used to being served, they have always come to eat to open their mouths, clothes to stretch their hands, this is not served, even if it is only one night, although it has not become a mentally handicapped child, but in the end nothing is wrong, it is very awkward.
Zhiyun took Ouyang's hand, ate a piece of pastry, drank two sips of hot tea, and muttered: "You have to adapt in the future, and you can't let them get used to these rich and noble problems in October." ”
The two of them are mages, and sooner or later they will have to leave the rich and exquisite life in the palace, although they can also make a few magical servants with constructs to take care of their lives in the future, but as mages, it is not a good thing to raise them too delicately.
Li Wei didn't know the thoughts of the two masters, and at this time he was still thinking about where to choose a few delicate and clean little girls and send them to serve the two masters.
"My long live lord, the minion is not pretending to be sick, look at it, the minion's injury is just right, and the bandage has not been removed." Li Wei raised his arm and licked his face to let Ouyang see the circle of gauze wrapped around his right arm.
Ouyang slapped it over, ignoring the pain he was crying out for when he jumped on his feet, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, be brief, tell me what's going on?" ”
It turned out that the Jiang bandits did make a lot of trouble, and Li Wei did lead troops to suppress the bandits, and he was even injured, but the injuries were not serious, this group of Jiang bandits is very familiar with the terrain of Zhejiang, and the members have high martial arts - "Long live the lord, it's not that the minions are not dedicated, it's really that this Jiang bandit is too cunning to touch their dens, as soon as the serious officers and soldiers arrive, they will disperse, and if they disperse, they will not be found......"
"Complain later...... I ask you, there must be a source of trouble, who are they? Why the fuss? Ouyang frowned, all dynasties and generations, Jiangnan is a major tax payer, Ouyang did not dare to ignore Jiangnan in the slightest, when the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, countless bloody cases were committed in Jiangnan, so for many years, the Qing government has always appeased Jiangnan.
Ouyang did not regard himself as a Manchurian at all, and naturally did not have the complicated feelings of the emperors of the Qing Dynasty for Jiangnan.
It's just that in Kangxi's later years, because of his old age, illness, and lack of energy, his rule was too broad, and all the bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods came out to make trouble, so Ouyang suppressed it for a while, but all the corrupt officials he suppressed, and the local tyrants and bullies were also rectified, and the people were definitely the ones who benefited......
"Master, everyone in the world knows that the officials in Jiangnan are the best at holding together, they are far away from the emperor, and they can't wait to be a soil emperor in Jiangnan, how many years, the officials of the entire Jiangnan are protégés, relatives and friends, willing to be with them' If you don't want to, then you have to leave, don't look at the slave is a governor, a first-class character in Zhejiang, but you really want to do practical things, you have to be obedient to the people below, when the slave came at the beginning, it was really difficult to move an inch, in recent years, the master has issued new policies one after another, and the Jiangnan officialdom has been screened piecemeal, supplemented with a lot of new blood, and let the local permanent supervision of the imperial history...... The life of the minions is better. ”
Speaking of this, Li Wei took a breath, poured a teacup of tea, and then continued, "Jiangnan officials and gentry are one, colluding with each other, and have great power, where are they willing to give up the good country in their hands, and they have been competing with the minions, and the minions have just arrived, and they don't dare to fight with them. Therefore, it has always been a small fight, and there has been no major conflict. ”
"At the beginning of last month, the slaves got a secret report, there is a group of illegal salt dealers who have been rampant recently, the slaves sent people to follow, stabbed their old nest, investigated and dealt with a large private salt workshop, caught seventy or eighty people, and did not take it seriously at first, in Jiangnan, there are many such private salt workshops, even if they are checked every day, they can't be checked, and they are generally arrested, and if the crime is not big, they will pay a fine according to the law, and the workshop will be sealed, and it will be over. But I didn't expect that when the slave walked back with the prisoner, he actually met a large number of assassins, all of whom had good martial arts, and the slave brought 300 soldiers with him, and he was stunned to let the family rush in and kill more than a dozen people, and also injured the slave's arm......"
"After coming back, the minister examined the people who were captured from the private salt workshop, but he didn't expect that the leaders had all died, and the rest were ordinary people, who were hired by them to beg for some hard-earned money, and they didn't know anything about these people."
"The minister has no choice but to send more people to search everywhere, but the bandits have failed repeatedly and repeatedly, and sometimes the minister has received a secret report on the front foot, and the people and horses sent out have not yet left the camp, and the gang of bandits got the news in advance and ran away...... The more the minister thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, these people came too strangely, and there were a lot of weapons used, and the slave thought, it is likely that there are Jiangnan gentry, and there must be a master behind it, so this letter is secretly folded into Beijing, and the saint is asked to adjudicate. ”
Ouyang and Zhiyun glanced at each other, and both frowned, now the intelligence system in the hands of the two of them is quite developed, although the power in Jiangnan is not as good as the capital, but big and small things, few can escape their eyes, this time, Zhejiang quietly has an extra force...... Ouyang immediately decided to go back and replace the leader of the sticky pole in Jiangnan.
Ouyang and Li Wei chatted until it was dark, had dinner, and took Zhiyun out to enjoy the night view of the south of the Yangtze River, and then stopped, their main purpose was to play leisurely and suppress the affairs of bandits, which was incidental.
But even by the way, Ouyang secretly made a move, and the energy of the government completely burst out, and the efficiency was much faster than Li Wei's, and it only took less than half a day to investigate the bottom of the private salt workshop clearly.
This workshop is a family surnamed the old people's family, in the early years was also a salt merchant, three years ago, the family fell in the middle of the road, the workshop was sold, the buyer is said to be a big businessman in the capital, surnamed Su, the Su family took over the workshop, and started to trade private salt.
"Su ...... Sue...... This surname? ”
Ouyang glanced at Zhiyun, "There doesn't seem to be a surname Su among the big merchants in the capital, but there is a concubine in the Xiaojiu family, and her maiden name is Su, because she pleases the ninth master, her mother's family also helps our ninth master take care of some business, I heard that Su Meiren's eldest brother has also become a very important steward of the ninth master." ”
"You have a good memory, I don't have a deep impression of this Su Meiren, I only remember that it seems to be your younger brother Yunzhen who gave it to Xiao Jiu, not only Xiao Jiu, but you, but also Honghao and Hongday, the trained Jiangnan thin horse, that is a smooth and beautiful ......"
"Poof...... cough, cough, cough, cough ......" Li Wei squirted out a sip of tea, quickly lowered his head, looked at his nose and nose, and looked at his heart, as if he hadn't heard anything.
"Ahem......" Ouyang swallowed the tea in his mouth, glanced at Li Wei with a smile, and then patted his daughter-in-law and said, "What do you say?" Let's discuss the ...... here."
Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly heard an exclamation from outside—"There are assassins"
Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of weapons intersecting, but it only rang for a while, and before Li Wei could go out in shock, all the sounds outside fell silent.
"The slave is dead, and the master is shocked."
Ouyang stood up and opened the door, and saw an ordinary-looking, thin man in blue on one knee outside.
"Get up, have you caught it?"
"Back to the master, I killed thirteen people, captured two alive, and never used firearms."
Hearing the words of the man in blue, for some reason, Li Wei suddenly felt furious in his heart, not to say how ugly this man's voice was, in fact, his tone was gentle, his voice was low and pleasant, and it would never make people feel uncomfortable, but there was a smell of blood in his nose, and it was difficult not to make people tremble in their hearts when they heard him so calm and peaceful, making people feel like a spring breeze.
Li Wei wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered to himself--Who are the people who are following the master? It looks more fierce than the Praetorian Guard...... It seems that there is no need to worry about the safety of Long Live Lord.
Ouyang glanced at the assassin twice, and saw a large pile of bits and pieces of various life-threatening objects found from these people, as well as the few fangs that had been removed from his mouth, and just ordered to hand it over to the 'Mu Eleven' who was in charge of torture, and threw it aside.
Although these people are specially trained dead soldiers to do dirty work, it is difficult to pry open a mouth, but in magic, there are many ways to make people tell the truth, even if it is based on 'humanitarianism', without using soul searching spells that directly act on the soul, all kinds of spitting potions with different effects are enough for these people to confide everything they know.
Sure enough, it only took half an hour for the two dead soldiers to open their mouths, obviously, such dead soldiers have been counted as a very important force of the other party, and they still know a little bit about their details, at least they said that the other party's den is a small fishing village called 'Zhangjiawu' near the sea in Jiangning......
The next one turned out to be a little weird.
Li Weicai sent people to surround Zhangjiawu and carefully search for the Jiang bandits, but before an hour had passed, four big families in the south of the Yangtze River actually came forward and ran to Li Wei's governor's mansion to spread the word vaguely.
All in all, it is to warn Li Wei that the water in this matter is very deep, he had better let it go and not investigate it again, otherwise, it will provoke the other party's dog to jump over the wall, even if he can't help it, Lord Governor, but only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thief the day before yesterday, Lord Li is old and young, and he can't ignore his wife and children.
The implication is that the other party is an outlaw, and if he can send a group of assassins and dead soldiers, he can send a second or third batch, if Li Wei is not sure to cut them down, they may harm Li Wei's relatives in order to take revenge. Even if you can't do anything to Li Wei, at least you can mess up with their Li family, and they will have trouble sleeping and eating for the rest of their lives.
Li Wei was stunned at the time, and sent him away to pass the word, with a face-'I am thinking about you', the powerful people, ran to Ouyang, couldn't speak for a long time, and after a while, he said something, and finally couldn't help but say: "Good guy, this bandit dares to threaten the court officials openly, long live the lord is here...... Oh my God, what kind of world is this?"
Ouyang and Zhiyun were also happy, although the other party definitely didn't know that the Long Live Lord was coming, but they just ran to the Governor's Mansion to threaten the Governor of Zhejiang, which is already a pretty big deal, as the saying goes, the people don't fight with the officials, these Jiangnan merchants, no matter how rich they are, he is also the people, Li Wei is the governor of a province, and he is a minister of the Son of Heaven, where did they have so much courage?
Zhiyun wondered: "These people have names and surnames in Jiangnan, and their family business is not small, when they encounter this kind of thing, they should not be able to hide, why are they stupid enough to expose themselves?" ”
"Unless...... They felt that their backstage was so big that Li Wei didn't dare to mess with it. ”
Ouyang frowned, what kind of person is Li Wei, his reputation is very great, he dared to go against the prince when he was a junior official in the past, and he was also very arrogant in front of his boss Mingde, and now he is the governor of a province, where can he stand this, if no one comes to threaten, he may act a little gentlely, but as soon as he is threatened, his strength is attacked, and he is stunned to surround the entire Zhangjiawu group, and search door to door.
Li Wei's soldiers are strong and strong, although these Jiang bandits seem to have some backgrounds, but they are only a small village with less than 100 people, Li Wei really didn't take it seriously, and as a result, as soon as he fought, he found that it hurt a hornet's nest.
Every household in this village has weapons and even heavy crossbows, from eighty old women to young children, all of whom can work with both hands, and pick up knives more neatly than soldiers.
In the end, Li Wei saw that it was not good, and he couldn't care about his face, so he urgently asked Ouyang for help, and asked Ouyang to transfer a group of good hands at the sticky pole to help catch the leading bandit, and then the entire village was captured.
—————— Split ——————————————————————
Early in the morning, before dawn, Zhiyun and Ouyang took a boat to see the world-famous Yueyang Tower.
The two of them wore snow-white wool cloaks, and they didn't bring any salutes, riding a batch of good horses and BMWs, but they walked slowly and leisurely, not in a hurry.
Just returned from the warm Jiangbei, Zhiyun, looking at the snowflakes floating in the sky, couldn't bear to nest her whole body in the arms of her father-in-law.
said that they were specifically going to see Yueyang Tower, but the two of them still went around outside Yuezhou City, looked at the mountains and the water, and then took a boat along the river and headed towards Yueyang Tower.
The two of them are richly dressed, and their appearance is even more outstanding, at first glance, it is the son and wife of a large family to go out to play, and it is not easy for people to run the dock, especially when the weather is cold, when they meet a big customer, they may be able to live a good year with a reward.
The captain who supported the boat for Zhiyun and the others was an old man with white hair, with a very smart granddaughter, his granddaughter was good-looking, with a slender figure, beautiful appearance, even if he always wore a hat to cover his face, but it was still easy to cause right and wrong, the old man was very cautious, for his granddaughter, it was easy not to pick up those single young men.
This time, when he met a good guest like Ouyang and Zhiyun, he naturally used all his skills, brewed the best tea on the ship, and asked his granddaughter to come over to help serve him.
The road is not far, not long after walking, Zhiyun looked up with a smile, as far as the eye could see, where the smoke waves, a huge city tower could be seen proudly standing.
This is Yueyang Tower.
Zhiyun exhaled and said with a smile: "This Yueyang Tower and Nanchang Tengwang Pavilion, Wuhan Yellow Crane Tower, Xuanzhou Xie Wei Tower and called the four famous buildings, I have seen Tengwang Pavilion, I have also seen the Yellow Crane Tower, the first of the four floors of Yueyang Tower, or the first time I have seen it, well, I hope not to disappoint me." ”
Ouyang hugged his daughter-in-law and stood at the bow of the boat, but he didn't answer Zhiyun's mouth, but blinked and changed the topic: "Don't you want to see the 'Heaven and Earth Society'?" Don't you want to see how the Tiandi Society founded by Chen Yonghua is? Why don't you wait for Li Wei to finish interrogating the Zhangjiawu villagers we caught before leaving? ”
Before Li Wei rounded up the bandits in Zhangjiawu, the two of them left first. No one thought about the follow-up immediately.
Zhiyun didn't answer, just glanced at her father-in-law.
Ouyang hooked the corners of his lips and smiled, the two of them had the same heart, how could they not know what the other party meant.
This matter, the ending is already known, and the process is not important.
Li Wei can cope with the next scene, it is estimated that it will not take long to find out the Jiangnan gentry in Zhangjiawu, and then work hard, and then follow the vine to touch the melon, and finally catch the tail of their big backer in the capital.
Ouyang still believes in his own skills, but at most, it will end here.
In the future, whether it is implicating Lao Jiu or finding out Fourteen, Ouyang will not feel strange, but he will not take it too seriously.
A force like Zhangjiawu, if it is eradicated this time, it may make the people behind the scenes hurt for a while, and it will not hurt the muscles and bones, because of such a secret force, they can't have only one, the emperor brothers who fought out from the Nine Dragons to seize the heir, which is simple, who will not keep one or two back-hands, but just such a little crooked and heretical, for the entire Qing Dynasty, it will definitely not be able to turn up too much storm.
In fact, these people in Zhangjiawu, Ouyang's sticky pole has been ascertained, and it is indeed Fourteen's subordinates, in addition, Fourteen has left hole cards at sea and Shengjing, not only one.
When he was a general, he did not withhold a lot of military funds, part of which was used to train these dead soldiers who could not be put on the table, and the use was the same as Ouyang's sticky rod.
Although it was clear that this matter had nothing to do with Lao Jiu, Ouyang didn't believe that Lao Jiu really didn't know anything about it, Yun Yu was not a fool, Fourteen planted someone under him, with his shrewdness, he wouldn't know? In terms of strategic means, Fourteen can't play with him, but he has other thoughts and refuses to say it.
Ouyang knew in his heart that now Lao Jiu seemed to have surrendered, perhaps, he didn't have too much dissatisfaction with Ouyang becoming the Ninety-Five, but even so, with his temperament, he would not leave any hole cards without leaving ......
If it were the historical Zhen, he would probably do everything to eradicate all the forces of these brothers and take everything into his own hands.
But Ouyang is not so eager for quick success, as long as he grasps the absolute power and maintains the balance, his subordinates have a little bit of their own careful thinking, and it is not a big deal to leave a little power that does not affect the overall situation. Now the emperor's profession is only a part-time job for him, and his main job is a mage, and there is such a thing as power, just use it enough, control everything? It's really unnecessary.
Besides, how can this matter really involve those who are in high status? At most, a few scapegoats were sent out to die.
Ouyang reached out and borrowed the snowflakes that had fallen in his palm, and exhaled a long breath - sometimes, holding the handle in the palm of his hand is much more useful than immediately exposing it, and at the right time, maybe these handles will play a big role.
Zhiyun shook his head, secretly holding grievances for his precious son, his emperor Ama could obviously leave him a Qing Dynasty that was too peaceful to be peaceful, but he refused to make more efforts, instead of leaving him a bunch of constraints, all of them were dragons and phoenixes among people, and now Ouyang is still there, and he can still suppress these people, if Ouyang is gone......
Zhiyun sighed: "Son, you can ask for more blessings for yourself, but with the supervision of these capable uncles, maybe, you can also become a good emperor far beyond your grandfather and father."
"Two guest officers. It's here. ”
The old man's call woke up Ouyang and Zhiyun.
Raising my eyes, I have arrived at the pier where people come and go.
The old captain took Ouyang and Zhiyun the snow-white and energetic BMW off the boat, Ouyang also took a stride and jumped ashore, only then did he turn around and hold Zhiyun's hand, and with a little force, Zhiyun fell into his arms.
Xiu'er, the delicate granddaughter of the old father, saw that the young couple was so affectionate, her eyes widened, a red cloud appeared on her face, and she was embarrassed to raise her hand to cover her eyes, but her fingers were wide open, and her black eyes were rolling around, looking clever, cute and lively.
Zhiyun glanced at it, couldn't help but smile, her voice was low and pleasant, and the old man couldn't help but laugh when she heard it, waved his sleeves and patted his granddaughter's head, and said, "Go aside, don't disturb your economic scene." ”
In a word, Zhiyun couldn't stand it, after all, this is not the open twenty-first century, but Ouyang calmly hugged his daughter-in-law and turned his head to look at the scenery, and the expression on his face did not change at all.
At this time, the sun is just rising, the snow has gradually decreased, the thick clouds have dispersed, and the sky is full of fiery red sunlight, reflecting the day, the mountain, the water, and the building.
Zhiyun took Ouyang's hand and looked into the distance almost fascinated, although the snow had stopped, the smoke waves of Dongting Lake were still covered by the hazy white mist.
The surrounding city outlines are connected, and the fine snowflakes fall flutteringly, plating the heaven and earth with a layer of silver light yarn. Zhiyun casually took out a painting clip from the canvas satchel hanging on the white horse, and with a few strokes, quickly drew the outline structure of the most beautiful scenery in the world.
After returning home, Zhiyun believed that with her mage's almost unforgettable memory, even if she was not yet skilled, she could paint a wonderful ink landscape scroll, and similarly, she could make a realistic oil painting to make up for the regret of not having time to take out a camera and video camera to shoot in public.
"Let's go."
Ouyang and Zhiyun, who are accustomed to seeing the beautiful scenery of the world, every time they see the wonderful pen of nature, they still can't help but be intoxicated, the sun rises in the east, breaking the spell, and Ouyang paid for the boat fare.
Carrying Zhiyun to Yueyang Tower.
Downstairs in Yueyang, there are many pavilions, and there are steles of famous masters of the past dynasties.
Ouyang read it with great interest and gave a lot of comments, as if he was everyone, and the works of famous artists of the past dynasties were nothing more than Erer in his place.
Zhiyun's eyes flew out, ignoring the cheekiness of his father-in-law, admiring it, and slowly ascending the stairs.
The whole Yueyang building is more than 20 meters high, built on the shore, the momentum is pressing, standing outside the building, you can vaguely feel the prominent momentum of the big waves, sometimes, the waves hit the beach, and even people can feel that it is like the coercion of thousands of troops and horses.
Entering the building, Zhiyun wandered for a long time, looking at the ink treasures left by the famous artists of the past dynasties, and also looking at the works left by the literati that she had never heard of at all, there was not a poem, a word, an article, a couplet, it was shoddy.
Zhiyun smiled, took his father-in-law's hand and toured, and said: "I remember that in the 21st century, I traveled a few times, and in those scenic spots and famous gardens, there are always people who can't help but leave many marks such as 'XXX comes here', 'I'm coming, I'm conquering', think about it, it's almost the same as the famous people who left Mobao in Yueyang Tower, but this realm can be 108,000 miles away, and it can't be compared at all. ”
"You little pusher, as for burying people like this? You really don't know what to say, so wine is not a good thing, especially for people who drink lightly......"
Ouyang shrank his head and coughed, knowing that his daughter-in-law was burying himself, and he also had that hateful and ignorant time, but he was only two and a half years old back then, and he was still wearing open crotch pants......
At that time, he was not yet three years old, his father was away for a long time, and the complicated work in the alliance made it extremely difficult for him to come back, it can be said that Ouyang was more than two years old, and the total time he spent with his father was definitely not more than ten days.
This time, Ouyang's father was injured and needed to go home to recuperate, so he also had free time, and he felt really guilty about his son, so he took him and his eldest brother to Beijing for a visit despite the doctor's request for recuperation.
Ouyang's memory is good, very good, to this day, every scene in those days, every minute and every second he gets along with his father, he can still remember it clearly, for his good memory, Ouyang is satisfied most of the time, however, occasionally, he will hate it, this time.
On the first day, they first went to Tiananmen Tower, then went to see the remains of their grandfather, and the next day they went to Xiangshan to see the sunrise and see the sea of red maple leaves. Finally, go to the Summer Palace and the Palace Museum.
At that time, in the Palace Museum, his father bought mineral water for Ouyang and his eldest brother, but as a result, Ouyang saw someone carving words on the stone steps of the Palace Museum.
Holding his magic carving knife, he carved a lot of crooked and unrecognizable words, and his eldest brother was stealing fun on the side, and he didn't stop him, and as a result, an old lady wearing a red armband happened to see it.
The old lady was very fierce, and catching him was a reprimand, Ouyang was young and ignorant at that time, and he was trained by the old lady to cry, and he was stunned to let a bunch of people around him point and watch the excitement.
When his father came back to see it, he was immediately annoyed and angry, and gave Ouyang a slap on the spot, of course, his father was not willing to put down his heavy hand, and he made it look like it, but he just patted it lightly.
Ouyang himself didn't understand what was going on with him at that time, just his father's slap, his tears couldn't be stopped anymore, he was crying so much that he almost fainted, and finally the old lady was embarrassed, so she asked for a fine of five yuan and asked his father to take him away.
This incident was once drunk by Ouyang and told Zhiyun and them, which can be seen to be extremely impressive.
After recalling, Ouyang rushed over and grabbed the snickering daughter-in-law is squeak, which made Zhiyun laugh non-stop, and at this time, suddenly there was a quarrel.
Ouyang and Zhiyun glanced at each other and looked down against the railing, they were on the second floor at this time, and the sound of quarrels came from downstairs.
"It seems that there are still people who come to Yueyang Tower......"
In front of Yueyang Tower, there is Ouyang's sticky pole guard, naturally will not easily let people in to disturb, ordinary tourists, see the waist hanging sword, indifferent look of the guard, probably will not be close, besides, the winter is cold, the time is also early, most of the time Yueyang Tower has no tourists.
Therefore, seeing a little maid with a round figure and wearing an apricot yellow shirt jumping to her feet and entangled with the two guards, Zhiyun couldn't help laughing: "Are we playing a trick of bullying people?" ”
Ouyang blinked, and saw a carriage parked not far below, and there was a man about thirty or forty years old standing in front of the car, this person was tall, wearing a dark wool cloak, and seemed to sense Ouyang's gaze, this person raised his head suddenly, his gaze was fierce.
Seeing his true face, Ouyang and Zhiyun were stunned and smiled.
Ouyang waved his hand and motioned for the guards downstairs to get out of the way, and the man also reflexively lifted the curtain of the car, leaned over and didn't know what to say, and in the carriage came down a beautiful woman with a beautiful complexion, two maids in green clothes, and then helped a thin middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man led the beauty, followed by two little maids in Tsing Yi, and a maid in apricot yellow clothes who came first, plus the tall man who stood outside at the beginning, and ascended the stairs in a big way.
The two sticky poles at the door did not embarrass the group, but only asked them to untie the swords at their waists.
As the group ascended to the second floor, the two men in front knelt on one knee at the same time, bowed down and kowtowed: "The courtiers have seen long live, and they have seen the queen's mother." ”
In a word, the beautiful woman beside them trembled, and he was stunned for a long time before he knelt down, unable to speak.
Ouyang raised his eyebrows, pointed to the stone bench beside him and said with a smile: "Sit down, when you go out, how can your brother have so many rules...... The eighth and tenth brothers are going to Jiangnan? ”
The eighth and tenth stood up and confessed their sins before sitting down on the stone bench.
Sitting upright, Yun Yu said without humility or arrogance: "Back to Long Live Lord, the younger brother is unwell and wants to go to Jiangnan to recuperate, the tenth brother has just returned from Qinghai, and he happens to have a vacation, and he also wants to go out for a walk, and by the way, he also sends his younger brother a ride." The younger brother has already taken a leave of absence from the prince, presumably the long live lord is not in Beijing, and he has not yet received the excerpt from the younger brother. ”
Since Ouyang ascended the throne, the constraints on various princes and ministers have been relaxed a lot, as long as there is a holiday, and the excerpt is reported, even if the prince in Beijing wants to leave the capital, it is not a difficult matter.
At first, many old princes opposed this decision, but later tasted the sweetness, and gradually acquiesced to Ouyang's behavior of treating the ancestral family law as nothing.
"Yes, traveling with the United States is indeed good for your health." Ouyang had long known that Yun Xi had left Beijing following in the footsteps of him and Zhiyun, and he could guess a thing or two about the purpose of his departure from Beijing, in fact, there was no need to think about it, Yun Xi must have a small part of this time to solve the problem of gangsters in Jiangnan and involving Lao Jiu.
However, just such a small matter, to the point that he can't work yet, about Lao Jiu still has something to do in Jiangnan, he is worried that the matter of the Jiang bandits will be big, he will investigate it strictly, and then toss a big change, so he will go out in person, but Yun Yu is still in the mood to travel with the beauty in Yueyang when he is dealing with the business, which is beyond his expectations.
Ouyang set his eyes on the beauty who was standing timidly beside Yun Xu, with her head down, the angle at which the woman was standing was a little backlit, and she couldn't see her face clearly, but from her slender legs, slender waist, round buttocks, and full breasts......
Ouyang's waist hurt, and he quickly withdrew his gaze freely, still secretly saying in his heart, he is a beauty, the old eight has good eyesight, many people say that Bafujin is lucky, there is a man who loves her very much, and that man is still the prince of the dynasty. Now it seems that even if this 'love' is not fake, it is more or less watery, at least, Lao Ba is not as dedicated as people think.
Ouyang is not a greedy and lustful man, but he is always a man, a man, it is normal to glance at a beautiful woman when he sees it, even if he has a wife and a son......
However, Ouyang coughed, turned his head and smiled and grabbed his daughter-in-law's small hand on his waist, a woman can appreciate it, and the person who can stand by her side is the only one.
He thinks that he is still very restrained, and he only has two eyes when he says that he has two more glances at beauties other than his wife, and no more, once the vinegar jar of his wife at home is overturned, it is not a joke, although sometimes, Ouyang also wants to see his daughter-in-law's jealous appearance, and occasionally being jealous is also the joy of life.
Ouyang didn't know that the beauty he 'admired' at this time was so mixed and restless in his heart, the beauty peeked at Zhiyun who seemed to be looking at the scenery by the railing, and secretly said: This is the queen, the queen, she really didn't expect that in her life, she could see such a noble person, but I heard that the prince is in his twenties, why is the queen still so young?
No one has time to pay attention to the mood of the beauty for the time being.
Yun Yu held the tea poured by the maid in Tsing Yi in his hand, glanced at Ouyang, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "When is Long Live Lord going to return to Beijing?" ”
"What? Something going on in the capital? ”
Ouyang also held the teacup, he and his daughter-in-law didn't take the maid out, not even a person to serve tea, this time I met, naturally I want to borrow light to enjoy one or two, for the capital, Ouyang is not worried, I only talked to Honghao Hongday last night, it seems that everything is normal, Honghao and Hongday except for a few complaints, their eighth uncle left Beijing, the ninth uncle said illness, and the thirteenth uncle bullied them all day long, they didn't say anything.
"It's okay in the capital...... However, the younger brother heard that Concubine De was not good. ”
Looking at Yun Xi's vaguely complicated face, Ouyang was stunned, Concubine De was sick, of course he knew that he had not paid much attention to Concubine De and Fourteen, who were currently in Shengjing.
In fact, a year ago, Concubine De ran out of oil and dried up, but she kept hanging on her breath, using a lot of tonic medicine to save her life, and now she is lying in bed, which is not too bad, but it is by no means good.
Ouyang also sighed a little in his heart, not to the point that he had any feelings for Concubine De, but that in the cannibalistic palace, a magical woman who climbed from the palace girl to one of the four concubines, and the grace of the saint was finally about to usher in her end, how could it not make people sigh?
Therefore, Ouyang was silent.
Yun Xi's gaze was very complicated, he looked at Ouyang in a daze for a long time before laughing self-deprecatingly: "Long live, my brother said something arrogant...... You're so ruthless......"
Yun Xi's mood at this time was extremely complicated, and he felt that the changes in his fourth brother were really like earth-shaking. When he was a child, he had a good relationship with the fourth brother, although he was not as close as Xiao Jiu and Xiao Shi, but there was no contradiction, and sometimes he could even enjoy a little bit of royal warmth from this iceberg brother.
For Zhen in the early years, Yun Xi knew a lot about it, how could he say that he also had the idea of winning the dragon chair back then, and how could he not know his competitors well? The fourth brother is like an iceberg on the surface, but it was for Huang Ama to see, in fact, he is an acute son, and his love and hate are as strong and distinct.
When he was young, he had feelings for Concubine De, after all, he was his biological mother, how could he not love him? Although he was saddened by Concubine De again and again, he was hurt to the bone marrow, but he still wanted to get his mother's love.
Although later, the relationship between the two became more and more stiff, he was disappointed, and from then on he deliberately made a look that was no longer extravagant, but Yun Yu knew that it was just the appearance, it can be said that his fourth brother had a fighting spirit at the beginning, and it was very likely that he wanted to fight for a breath in front of Concubine De, and let her, the mother, see that the son she abandoned like a clog is the son who can bring her glory and wealth, fourteen is not good
Yun Xi always thought that after Zhen ascended the throne, even if it was possible to accept other brothers, he would never let Fourteen go, he would definitely try his best to make Fourteen never raise his head again, and let Fourteen never raise his head in front of Concubine De, he would let Concubine De sit in a high position, watch him reign over the world, and regret it.
But Yun Yu was wrong, he really didn't expect that the fourth brother would really put Fourteen and Concubine De in Shengjing like this, neither persecuting nor pretending to care, really for these two people, only the friendship on the face, the etiquette is the same, for Fourteen, and the same as for other brothers, he treats everyone equally, but more, there is no more, not even oppression, even if Concubine De has bowed her head, he does not care about it.
Now Concubine De is dying. Yun Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly, Concubine De was going to die, but his fourth brother had the same expression as when he heard that Huang Ama's other concubine was dying, just like an outsider's sigh.
Yun Yu doesn't know what to think of the current Yongzheng Emperor, his fourth brother, this kind of change is obviously a good thing for an emperor, at least, he, as a younger brother, as long as he doesn't make mistakes and steps on the bottom line, he doesn't have to worry about his fourth brother punishing him all day long, and killing his brothers.
"I will return to Beijing before the Chinese New Year, and I hope that Concubine De will be blessed to survive this year."
Regarding Yun Xi's exclamation, Ouyang just waved his hand and said casually, how Concubine De is, it really has nothing to do with him.
Ouyang sighed twice, and then changed the topic: "Eighth brother, doesn't it matter if you take a woman back?" Once the vinegar jar of the eighth brother and sister is broken, it is not only you who are unlucky. ”
"Long live, don't laugh at your brother, brother is also a last resort."
Yun Xi just talked casually, and he couldn't resist getting involved in the problems between mother and son. According to Ouyang's meaning, he said with a smile, "You also know that this is different from the capital, and it is common for officialdom to send maidservants back and forth...... Since Miss Xiao Tan has been given to her brother, if she doesn't want it, then I'm afraid her fate will not be easy to say, no matter how the brother says it, she is also a person who pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade, and how can she watch the beauty fall into the mouth of the tiger. ”
There is a restaurant downstairs in Yueyang, the name is very atmospheric, it is 'Yuezhou Restaurant', according to the experience of Ouyang and Zhiyun who often travel around the world, the restaurants and restaurants that dare to use the name of the place name must be counted in the local area.
Lao Shi is a foodie, and he sat and listened to the two brothers talk for a while, and then he was hungry.
The scenery of Yueyang Tower, Ouyang and Yunxi looked interested, but Lao Shi was not interested, Li Bai's famous poem, in his heart, was not as good as a bowl of spicy soup.
So, everyone got up and went to eat.
Miss Xiao Tan is very sensible, and she took a few girls to help clean the dishes and chopsticks, served the soup with her bare hands, and held it in front of these people with both hands.
After drinking a bowl of hot Hu spicy soup and taking a bite of the roasted bun, Ouyang did not avoid the eighth and tenth children, and approved Li Wei's excerpts sent by the royal postman, asking him to take full authority to deal with the suppression of bandits, and also issued an order that "the envoys will be subject to their moderation".
The eighth and tenth didn't ask what the old man was, just with fragrant roasted buns, ate a few signature dishes of the restaurant, and waited until he was full, asked for a drink, drank a glass, and the eighth took Xiao Tan's hand and asked her to sing Jiangnan Minor, don't say, Xiao Tan's voice is good, and he sings the folk slang songs tactfully and lingeringly, and Zhiyun is stunned to hook up with Zhiyun.
"This little Tan girl is good, she has a good appearance, a good figure, and she has a charming fragrance without makeup, a beauty without makeup, rare."
Zhiyun took a sip of wine, felt that it was okay, it was not bad wine, so she touched her lips slightly, the smell of wine was smoky, two blushes appeared on her cheeks, leaned on Ouyang's shoulder, and glanced at him, "I heard that Jiangnan officialdom comes and goes, and you like to give people beautiful maids the most, you followed the old man to Jiangnan, and you enjoyed this kind of glamorous blessings, right?" ”
Just looking at Yun Xi has not yet arrived in Jiangnan, he is already sitting in the arms of a beauty, and he can imagine that Kangxi took his princes to Jiangnan back then, and he must have come and gone in the rouge pile, and the beauty was like a cloud.
"Well, there is no less, especially Lao Jiu, many of the beautiful concubines in the family are from Jiangnan. The eighth child is better, but he has a lot of beautiful concubines in his backyard. ”
Ouyang smiled and hugged his daughter-in-law, with a bit of helplessness in his expression, these princes are nothing to accept some beauties, as long as they are not from good families, even the concubines in the prince's mansion who do not enter the jade plate will not take it seriously, those lowly maidservants are not much different from objects, sending a few, and sending a few antiques and getting a jade, the same meaning.
Even if he is jealous like Bafujin, he didn't stop others from sending a maid to Yun Xi.
Not to mention the prince, ordinary officials have never taken the lowly handmaiden seriously, I like to see a fresh, I don't like to give it away, just say Li Wei, because he has been in Jiangnan for many years, the official to the governor, the position is high and powerful, but he still only accepts the lowly handmaiden, not the concubine, just for this reason, others gave him a thumbs up to praise him for being clean, and even Mrs. Li is very happy, which can be seen how low the status of a lowly woman is.
Ouyang lowered his voice and bit his ear with Zhiyun: "Although I ordered the abolition of the lowly status, but the ideology is deep-rooted, and the law cannot interfere, this matter cannot be completely solved in a day or two." ”
"Those women who have been in the lowly nationality, even if they are lucky enough to redeem themselves and follow the good, there is no good future, seeing the original master, they still have to bow down and be small, the master wants their lives, it is still very easy, and, once they enter the lowly nationality, future generations will be affected, especially marriage, good and lowly are not married, since ancient times, it has been so ......"
"Hey, a girl like Xiao Tan, I don't think she's too young, how can she be eighteen or nineteen years old, at such an age, being able to follow Yun Yu is a blessing that she cultivated in her previous life, that is, the old eight don't accept her, if you move your kindness and point her to someone under your hands, Xiao Tan will be considered to be able to get out of the lowly status, at least the children can get out of the lowly status, and there will be no restrictions on marriage in the future."
After eating, they traveled around Yueyang Tower with their companions, Ouyang and Zhiyun joined hands with Lao Ba and Lao Shi, the two continued to go south, and Zhiyun and them went north to return to Beijing.
The winter in the south of the Yangtze River is still green, but the capital in winter is covered in silver.
Zhiyun and Ouyang returned to the capital before the Chinese New Year, and on the first day of entering Beijing, they received the news that Concubine De was seriously ill, and the imperial doctors also said accurately, saying that Concubine De would only be a matter of one or two months.
The fourteenth fold wanted to send his mother back to Beijing, saying that Concubine De wanted to go back to the Yonghe Palace, where she had lived for many years, and wanted to go back to the capital to see her family.
Ouyang didn't say anything, yes, Concubine De was already dying, the old woman who stepped into the ghost gate with one foot, before she died, there was such a request, whether this request was meant by the side, whether this request was accompanied by fourteen begging in it, he had no reason not to allow it.
Ouyang is not a particularly indifferent man after all, and he has no resentment or hatred towards Concubine De.
So, Ouyang prepared a spacious and comfortable car, and sent two imperial doctors to take Concubine De back to the capital as quickly as possible, but Ouyang temporarily deducted the excerpt that Fourteen asked to send his mother back to Beijing, and only let Fourteen Fujin finish Yan's illness.
The road leading to Shengjing, which began to be built from the first year of Yongzheng, came in handy, but in half a month, Concubine De's car entered Beijing.
There are few women in Ouyang Palace, and they haven't carried people to the Forbidden City for many years, and Yonghe Palace is still empty, so there is no need to make room for Concubine De, she can move in directly when she arrives in the capital.
Yonghe Palace Ouyang has not moved, retaining the appearance of Concubine De when she left. In fact, except for Zhiyun's Chuxiu Palace, since Ouyang ascended the throne, he has not built a lot of construction in other palaces, and most of the entire Forbidden City is still the same as when Kangxi was in the past.
Yonghe Palace
Since Concubine De settled in, Ouyang has not been here once on weekdays except for coming to ask for peace in the morning, but today, the imperial doctor said that Concubine De is not very good. Concubine De sent the palace maids around her to Chuxiu Palace, saying that she invited the emperor and the queen to come over to meet.
Zhiyun thought about it, and was quite curious about what Concubine De wanted to say before she died, Ouyang went down, and the two of them came together.
Inside the hall gate, there were faint coughing sounds, Zhiyun and Ouyang walked in, and at a glance they saw the pale, senile Concubine De, she collapsed on the couch, and there was a strong smell of medicine in the room.
At this time, Concubine De was awake, Wan Yan was leaning on the side of the bed and dozing off with her head down, still holding a soaked handkerchief in her hand, obviously helping Concubine De wipe her body all night, she was so tired that the two imperial doctors stood aside.
"How?"
Ouyang glanced at Concubine De, whose eyes were hazy, before turning his head and asking the imperial doctor.
A imperial physician surnamed Lin hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Back to Long Live Lord, Concubine De is old...... I'm afraid, I'm afraid there are still a few days to live at most. ”
"Can't think of a way? At least survive this year? Zhiyun frowned, although she had no affection for Concubine De, it was not a pleasant thing to see a dying old man.
"This ......" the imperial doctor hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head with a wry smile, "Concubine De has already run out of oil, and in just a few days, she still has to be recuperated." ”
"Queen...... Empress. ”
Maybe it was because she heard the words of the imperial doctor, Concubine De didn't know where she got the strength, and she struggled to sit up, as soon as she moved, Wan Yan next to her woke up, and hurriedly leaned over to help Concubine De, and stuffed a big pillow behind her back, "Eniang, are you awake?" ”
Wan Yan followed Concubine De's line of sight, and was suddenly startled, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Say hello to the emperor and the queen." ”
"No need to be polite, get up."
Ouyang waved his hand casually, letting Wan Yan stand aside before helping Zhiyun and walking to the couch.
Concubine De's gaze didn't know whether she didn't dare or didn't want to, she never fell on Ouyang's body, but just looked at Zhiyun with a pair of dizzy eyes, a little moist.
After gasping for breath for a while, Concubine De suddenly reached out and grabbed Zhiyun's sleeve, gritted her teeth and said: "Queen Mother, you are a good person, the slave knows that you are a good person, you help the slave persuade Long Live Lord, you persuade him, let him not embarrass my fourteenth ...... No, no, it's not like that, you're Banzai's favorite woman, and you love Banzai too, aren't you? Isn't it? Then you should think about the reputation of Banzai, he can't ...... He can't poison his own brother, otherwise, wouldn't he be as good as a brute, he can't ......"
Zhiyun frowned, and said in her mouth: "Concubine Shenyan, what are you talking about, you are an elder, how can you call yourself a slave in front of the juniors......
Zhiyun spit out the words lightly and heavily, her voice was hoarse, but with an indescribable majesty, the rest of Concubine De's words immediately choked in her throat and could no longer be spit out.
Zhiyun didn't look at her either, but just swept a cold glance at several palace maids and eunuchs in Yonghe Palace, as well as the two imperial doctors.
The people in the palace were startled, and immediately bowed their heads and knelt down, no longer daring to stay to listen to the royal family's secrets, and retreated and exited the door.
Wan Yan was almost stunned, he really didn't expect that Eniang, who had always been rational and calm, would do such a thing. She looked at Concubine De in a daze for a long time before she reacted, rushed up with an arrow, held Concubine De's thin arm, and stumbled and said: "Eniang, you are feverish, hot and confused, daughter-in-law will wipe your body for you, and it will not be so uncomfortable to wipe it......"
Before Yan's words fell, Concubine De's face suddenly changed, becoming pale, a red light flashed on her face, she struggled to turn her head, and finally stared at Ouyang's face, her lips squirmed, but she didn't speak after all...... Then, with a 'poof' sound, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and Concubine De instantly leaned back and fell.
Wan Yan took a step, hugged Concubine De's body, tears flowed, and cried: "Eniang, Eniang, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with you?" What about the Imperial Doctor, the Imperial Doctor? ”
Ouyang and Zhiyun sighed, called the imperial doctor to enter the door, and the two imperial doctors took turns to rescue, and poured a bowl of prepared ginseng soup, and Concubine De barely breathed a sigh of relief.
Holding Zhiyun's hand and standing in front of the dresser of Huang Huali in Yonghe Palace, Ouyang's face was also a little complicated, and his warm eyes showed a little inexplicable emotion.
He has all the memories of 'Zhen', and although it is impossible for Concubine De to be like the original Zhen, with love and hatred, but at this moment, it is not absolutely indifferent to see her dying.
Zhiyun grabbed Ouyang's hand, turned her head and glanced at Wan Yan, who was standing in front of the couch, and said to Ouyang again: "I have already asked the imperial doctor to go over and keep an eye on it, you go and rest." ”
Ouyang nodded, "Together." ”
The emperor and queen held hands, did not take the car, and walked out of Yonghe Palace slowly, at this time, to the moon, the weather was gloomy, and there were snowflakes falling in mid-air, but Zhiyun walked all the way, but he saw sweat on his forehead.
Back in Chuxiu Palace, as soon as she entered the inner hall, October led Qiao'er and a few palace maids to come over to sweep away the snowflakes on her body, go to the snow-white da, and change into a loose dress just sent by the laundry room. took a champa again, prepared hot water, and waited for Zhiyun to wash.
Ouyang has a lot of official business, just returned to Beijing with Zhiyun on a trip, and there are many official affairs that need to be handled in person.
But after all, he is young, has little experience, and has many affairs, so he still can't do without Ouyang. Don't look at Ouyang who seems to have been a lot more idle recently, and he can often accompany his wife, but if he wants to completely let go of his hands, I'm afraid he will have to struggle for a few years, and wait for Honghao's wings to grow from a young eagle to an eagle.
It wasn't until the evening that Ouyang had time to spare, and the two of them went to Yonghe Palace to visit Concubine De, who was still asleep, and Yan didn't say anything, but he didn't want to say anything, obviously he also wanted to beg Ouyang to let Fourteen return to Beijing.
However, even if Ouyang ordered the fourteenth time to return to Beijing to serve the sick at this time, it would be too late.
There was a strong smell of Chinese medicine wafting in Yonghe Palace, and the entire bedroom was filled with a dead air of decay and decay.
Through the dim candle flame, Zhiyun looked towards the bed, and saw Concubine De lying on the bed, breathing heavily, and occasionally hearing a slight moan of grief.
Zhiyun heard many, many words that she would never say when she was sober, including a strong hatred for Empress Tong, a longing for the sixth elder brother, a deep maternal love for Fourteen Zhen, and an inferiority complex for her background, a contempt and hatred for those noble, Kangxi's harem concubines, love and hatred for her family, worries about the future of Wu Ya's family, and a lot of her grievances, her complicated feelings for Kangxi, her pride and remorse for becoming a concubine, all kinds of things, intermittently, it's just - there is no Zhen in her words, not even in her sleep.
Perhaps, Concubine De herself doesn't understand what kind of emotions she has for her first son, the fourth elder brother who has now ascended the throne and won the final victory in the Kowloon succession.
"Fourteen, E-Niang's Zhen'er, don't be stupid, don't be stupid, E-Niang won't harm your ......"
Listening to Concubine De's whispers in her ears, Ouyang's gaze was unconsciously on her, and she remembered the information about Shengjing in the past few years, and in the last few years, the relationship between Concubine De and Fourteen was tense, and the two even had a very fierce quarrel, about the future road, about future generations, about the wives and concubines of the back house, fourteen pairs of Eniang who doted on themselves so much, from filial piety and obedience at the beginning, to impatience at the end, the change was so fast, even Ouyang never thought of it.
But even so, Concubine De is sick, and what she misses is still the unfilial son of Fourteen.
Turning his head to look at Imperial Physician Lin's body, Ouyang sighed and said, "Concubine ......" paused, as if he didn't know what to say, and after a long while, Ouyang said again, "Try to alleviate Concubine De's pain...... Let her live longer. ”
"Huh."
Imperial Physician Lin obeyed the order, but the imperial physicians had exhausted their means, and they didn't know how many precious medicinal materials were continuously sent to Yonghe Palace, and the next evening, Concubine De had already fallen into a state of dying and delirious.
On this night, the lights in Yonghe Palace were not extinguished, and countless imperial doctors came and went.
At dawn.
"Use a needle."
Ouyang and Zhiyun stood in front of the couch, and Wan Yan knelt on the ground and wept mourning. After listening to the statements of the imperial doctors on Concubine De's condition, Ouyang waved his hand and made a decision.
Imperial Physician Lin hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth, but still knelt in front of the bed, and stabbed three silver needles into the top of Concubine De's head like lightning.
After a while, Concubine De woke up faintly, she stretched out a pair of thin hands, and grabbed Ouyang who was standing in front of the bed for the first time, her spirit seemed to be much clearer, her eyes widened, and she stared at Zhen's face for a long time.
Zhen's face was actually six or seven points similar to Concubine De, she looked so attentive, and she was so focused that she didn't come back to her senses until Yan reached out and held her arm: "Your Majesty...... Zhen, do you believe it or not, believe it or not, E-Niang once expected you, E-Niang once loved you...... E-Niang has wanted to take you back from Tong Niangniang's hands more than once, and she desperately wants to take it back...... Do you believe it? Our mother will make trouble to the point where it is today, is Eniang wrong, Eniang is wrong......"
Concubine De's voice became lower and lower from the beginning of the fierceness, but the light in her eyes was dazzling, and she stared at Ouyang persistently, as if his words could determine whether Concubine De would go to heaven or hell......
Ouyang was stunned for a moment, and smiled bitterly, this is a woman who once dominated the harem, and the words in her mouth can never be believed, 'A man is dying, and his words are good', this wise saying can never be used on a woman in the harem, but no matter whether Concubine De is sincere or not, the real Zhen must be relieved.
Zhen may dream of determining whether he is in his biological mother's heart, whether his biological mother really not only doesn't love him, but also hates him and hates him to the bone.
Therefore, after hearing these words, Ouyang could only show a touch of relief on his face, and said, "I believe, Eniang." ”
Concubine De smiled suddenly, her wrinkled face seemed to be a little more rosy and angry, her lips squirmed, and she spit out two more words with difficulty: "Fourteen ......"
But this time, Ouyang didn't speak for a long time, and his face was full of longing for Concubine De, and he only said: "I won't ...... anything to Fourteen" Of course he didn't plan to make a move on Fourteen, but if Fourteen crossed the line, then he would definitely become a stepping stone for Honghao's growth.
As soon as Ouyang's words came out, Concubine De exhaled heavily, as if she had put everything down, and finally glanced at Yonghe Palace, and fell asleep again.
After falling asleep, Concubine De never woke up again, and in the middle of the night, the death knell sounded in Yonghe Palace.
At dawn on the twenty-first day of the twelfth lunar month of the seventh year of Yongzheng, this concubine of the Wu Ya clan, who had struggled in Kangxi's harem all his life, became one of the four concubines of the holy favor for ten years, died at the age of seventy and collapsed in the Yonghe Palace.
Among those present, only the emperor and the fourteenth Fu Jin Wanyan clan were present.
Her death is actually a joy and mourning, but it's a pity-
In the end, she still didn't see her son, who she loved all her life and still missed on her deathbed, Fourteen Belle Yunzhen.
———— Split ————————————————
Because the New Year was about to begin, Ouyang issued an order to bury Concubine De in accordance with the concubine etiquette after the New Year.
Waiting until this one is not lively, but it is by no means cold, the funeral of Concubine De, but the whole department of the Ministry of Rites is not able to live in peace, it is really the identity of Concubine De is too special, although on the jade plate, the mother of the current Long Live Lord is only Queen Tong, but, Concubine De's is indeed the biological mother of Long Live De, at this time Long Live said that Concubine De was buried according to the etiquette of the concubine, but who knows what the master thinks in his heart, maybe the relationship between Concubine De and this Long Live is indifferent, but that is also the business of the Heavenly Family itself, how can the minister speculate?
In the end, after discussing and discussing, it was decided to bury the concubine according to the etiquette, but the specifications were as high as possible, and the funeral was as grand as possible, and efforts were made to make the funeral of Concubine De slightly inferior to the queen mother, but it was the most beautiful among the concubines.
Fourteen Baylor, who worked hard to send Sheng Jing over to the funeral for Eniang, cried heartbreakingly in front of the spirit, was in pain, and even fainted twice, and after the funeral, the whole person was out of shape.
After this pass, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty praised the fourteen Baylor benevolence and filial piety.
Chuxiu Palace, Zhiyun hugged her little daughter, who was already one year old, and helped her crawl around on Ouyang's stomach with a smile, this girl is smart and clever, she is only a little old, and she can already call Ama Eniang's brothers and sisters clearly, soft, small meat buns like dough, she was loved by her brothers and sisters as soon as she was born, and now she is the overlord of Chuxiu Palace.
Ouyang also hurt her to the bones, to Baoyin, even more than his first son Honghao, he is simply a stupid father, a daughter slave virtue, for the little guy to eat, drink, wear, use, are the best, a daughter is the biggest, want the stars never give the moon posture.
For Honghao, he was still worried about not spoiling his son, but for Baoyin, Ouyang forgot everything, and only thought about spoiling his daughter wholeheartedly.
Sometimes Zhiyun doubts that the so-called little emperors and princesses in the 21st century can get their father's love, thinking wildly, when she raised her eyes, she saw the baby girl lying on Ouyang's chest, and slapped him on his handsome and charming face, but Ouyang was so happy that she couldn't see her teeth, and kissed her daughter with a smile, "The baby has so much strength, she is a good girl." ”
"Good girl, good girl......"
The little girl was complimented, and happily gave Ouyang two fans, and then raised her head high, revealing her fleshy little neck, that posture was like an arrogant white swan, Zhiyun suddenly felt a little itchy......
She made a decision in an instant, in order for her daughter not to be raised as a harem bully, she needs to give her daughter's enlightenment teaching, add more points, and must be committed to training this girl so that she has no strength to do anything else except studying
Awakened by one after another, strong waves of magic, Zhiyun opened her eyes and reached out to lift the heavy azure curtains.
As a result, as soon as his hand was stretched out, he felt a hint of coolness, Zhiyun retracted his head, and the whole person was buried in the quilt and rolled several times.
Located on the highest peak of the Floating City, the windows of the master bedroom, 'Lang Yuan', are wide open, and opposite is Zhiyun's Adamantine Mage Tower.
Finally, after enjoying the last warm quilt in the morning, Zhiyun put on a long poplin pajama coat, casually pulled up a head of hair with a handkerchief, climbed out of the wide and exquisite four-legged bed, shook off a not too thick quilt at will, got out, leaned against the window, rubbed her face and sobered up for a while, and then pulled off the 'cleaner' hanging on the wall and began to take care of personal hygiene.
Compared to this kind of magic cleaning utensils that mages like to save time, Zhiyun still uses the traditional way of washing, even if she can use magic to keep her body clean, she can't feel the refreshment and comfort brought by that kind of warm water......
But at present, she is in Langyuan, and the girls in October and July are not allowed to enter, and Zhiyun can only do it herself, so she doesn't care whether she is comfortable or uncomfortable.
Opposite, through the dense branches and leaves of the World Tree, His Majesty the Emperor, who was pulling the hearts of all the people from top to bottom in the Qing Dynasty because of his 'serious illness', was sitting at his desk with his little daughter reading a serious book, and above his head, there was a mysterious 'star map'.
"Did you know that once the star map is opened, it will cost one-fortieth of the energy stored in the floating city?"
With a jump, Zhiyun jumped out of the window, and the World Tree seemed to come alive, extending a huge branch, steadily catching her light body......
Ouyang smiled, reached out to wrap his arms around his daughter-in-law's waist, and lay down on the chaise longue with bright flowers blooming, raised his index finger, put it on his lips, and sighed softly.
"Look...... How beautiful. ”
The star map in mid-air flashes with bright or dim points of light, alternating red, white and black, sky blue, light purple, bright yellow, from time to time like a meteor, all kinds of strange lines, complex to make people dizzy when they focus a little, but I have to admit that it does have a kind of magic, so that people can be attracted and dazzled as long as they see it.
Although it is called a 'star map', it is very different from the star map that can be understood by professionals on Earth, it is larger, more varied, more bizarre, more mysterious, and it also represents more adventures and opportunities......
Zhiyun took a deep breath, forced his gaze to withdraw his gaze from the star map, and frowned: "Don't tear up the topic, you also love Baoyin too much......" Just for his daughter to be happy, this guy opened the star map at will, wasting the resources of the entire Floating City, and it was too much.
"It's not so spoiled to spoil my daughter"
This time, Ouyang did not agree with his beloved wife's opinion, and showed a charming smile on his face that all women couldn't help but scream when they saw it, and gave his wife a sweet kiss: "Who told our girl to be so competitive, I just don't want to spoil her, I can't find a reason to ......"
Zhiyun was speechless for a moment, "Fighting? You actually gave her such an evaluation? Is it because this girl single-handedly beat your sixteen imperial guards into pigs' heads? Or take Yonglian of the Honghao family, Yongying of the Hongtian family and Lulu to shave the beard of Lord Ortai and engrave words on Zhang Tingyu's face......"
As she spoke, Zhiyun turned her head sharply, and at a glance she saw her little daughter, holding a copy of "Fundamentals of Magical Potential Development", sitting upright on a chair.
Seeing her mother looking at her, Bao Yin blinked and showed a pure smile, especially the two small dimples, which were simply fascinating.
It's so cute-Ouyang's heart was numb, and even Zhiyun swallowed back all the words of scolding......
Tears flowed down her face, although she is a mage, there is absolutely no lack of reason, but in the face of the cute thing of 'little Lori', it is difficult for her not to be caught, Baoyin, this child, has learned how to grasp the weaknesses of her parents at a young age, it is not simple.
I have to say that in Baoyin's body, it really gathers all the advantages of Ouyang and Zhiyun, although she is only six years old, she has already been born with bright eyes and bright teeth, and can see the appearance of the country and the city in the future, and because of Zhiyun's strict teaching, this girl is already full of nobility at a young age, walking, sitting and lying, quite a princess.
God really loves her absolutely, people say that if a woman has a beautiful appearance, then on the other hand, it must be a brain full of weeds, but Baoyin is different, she has been refreshing all the teachers who taught her since she was two and a half years old, including Zhiyun, for the cognition of 'genius'.
What are the geniuses on the earth who are seventeen or eighteen years old and have a few master's and doctoral degrees, Baoyin girl is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting at the age of six, Wen Neng fights with those talents who have read books for more than ten years, and the martial arts are crazy to step on the imperial guards in the palace, although those guards are just ordinary Lan Ling guards, and they may put some water, but this is scary enough, not to mention, she is also very talented in magic.
Bao Yin is not only talented, but also really loves magic, for all the mysterious knowledge, her crazy energy, even Zhiyun can't compare, since the age of five formal contact with magic, a whole year, two hours of magic practice that can't be shaken, the difficulty of shaping the body, the boring basic magic knowledge, it seems that it can't affect Bao Yin at all.
You know, not to mention just a six-year-old girl, even for adults, when they first gathered magic power, it was really a failure, one failure, ten thousand efforts, maybe they couldn't feel a trace of magic, often months of cultivation, and finally gathered that little bit of power, but if you don't pay attention, you lose it again.
This process cannot be avoided by the minds of geniuses, so a large number of potential children will not become mages in the end because they lack patience and luck.
Sometimes, Zhiyun couldn't help but sigh, if this girl could have the good conditions she had in the infinite time, maybe she would have already comprehended the rules and set foot in the realm of God.
Zhiyun sighed, touched her little daughter's head, picked her up, hugged her in her arms and kissed her, no way, even if this child is not good, even if she is naughty and domineering, even if she likes all luxuries, she is demanding on the details of life, and her eyes are so picky that all the palace maids who serve her are miserable, even if she has a bad temper at a young age, she has no mercy for people, believes in the survival of the strong, the weak deserve to be unlucky, and she will ask for it if she can't survive, even if she is in addition to her parents and relatives, Don't look at anyone else, and when you meet others, you always look up your head......
However, even if she tried her best, she couldn't reverse the temperament she didn't know when, Zhiyun damned it, like Ouyang, she was still extremely proud and proud to have such a daughter as her.
Who wouldn't like that her daughter is extremely smart, elegant and beautiful, respectful and filial to her parents, never stops thirsting for knowledge, and is more patient, persevering, enterprising, and never discouraged than most adults...... With these beautiful qualities, even if there is a slight flaw, the flaw will become very cute.
"Want to go shopping?"
"Hmm." Bao Yin thought about it, and finally nodded firmly, took out a bookmark of a maple leaf, sandwiched it in the book, and put the book away, then looked up and smiled, "Sister Yuanyuan said that she would bring Sister Daiyu and Xiao Mingming over to play, shall we pick them up?" Also, I heard that "The Little Girl Who Can Magic" is going to be signed for sale, shall we go buy a copy? ”
It is only when she is by her mother's side that Princess Baoyin, who gradually began to evolve from a harem to a master in the capital, will reveal her innocence in line with her age.
Zhiyun nodded and smiled: "Okay, buy a copy for you and Mingming." ”
Ming Ming is Daiyu's second son, and discussed with her husband's family, the second son's surname is Lin, inheriting the mantle of the Lin family, and in the future, whether it is a son or a daughter, they will have his father's surname.
The child is three and a half years old this year, looks like Daiyu, and has a lot of peach blossoms since he was a child, all the little girls can't wait to rush up and take a big bite when they see him, even their own baby daughter is no exception, from a time I saw Mingming, I regarded myself as a big sister, and the little guy was included in the scope of my family.
Sometimes, Zhiyun can't help but cry out for the Honghao family and the Hongyang family's baby sons, they have passed the test of blood and fire of their aunt with great difficulty, and only then did they succeed in becoming Princess Baoyin's little follower, but I didn't expect that an outsider, who was still less than four years old, didn't do anything, so he let Baoyin maintain it, which made them feel embarrassed by these royal brothers who were self-proclaimed sons of the sky
Zhiyun thought about it while thinking that it was quite interesting, stretched out her legs and kicked her father-in-law, and then changed her daughter into a mage suit that was quite popular in the Floating City.
A silver-white slim-fitting dress trench coat, a small silver-red cloak with simple runes, a healing inscription inlaid on the shoulder, a flying inscription, a fluorescent stone for lighting hanging on the hat that can cover the face, an automatic pop-up magic guide resting in the big sleeves, a purse-like space bag hanging from the waist, and black high-waisted acceleration boots on the feet, which are converted into flyboards.
Ouyang and Zhiyun are also in the same mage suit, the family is neatly dressed, and they take a photo in the floor-to-ceiling mirror, not to mention, they are really quite feeling, no wonder the ready-to-wear shops opened by the July family can open one branch after another in the floating city, and the demand is still in short supply.
Everyone, I'm sorry, but I'm sorry to take three days off.
Class reunion, dizzy from drinking every day, I really don't have the strength to code words, so I take a three-day break off.
The three members of Zhiyun's family are all dressed neatly, wearing a half-face mask of the same color, only revealing the part above the nose, one is to protect from the wind and dust, and the other is that the three of them are celebrities in the floating city, once they show their faces, I am afraid it will be impossible to play freely and happily.
Today's Floating City is no longer a so-called fairy island with only three or two kittens, it is very popular, including the apprentices who have graduated from the magic academy who have settled here, together with their families and relatives, a total of more than 50,000 or 60,000 permanent residents.
All the facilities that have been prepared for a long time have also been used, such as commercial areas, residential areas, entertainment areas, work areas, schools, ...... It's well organized, but there is still a lack of a special kindergarten, and they are planning to set up one in October, and they are applying for enclosures, and they are also helping to recruit and assess teachers in July, anyway, they are still concerned about this matter.
This is also forced to have no choice, the little apprentice in October, the apprentice's daughter-in-law gave birth to triplets in one breath, there is a lot of work in the floating city, especially the apprentices, everyone has to work and study, the children really can't see it, those servants and the like have no ability to apply to live in the floating city, and those who can move in will definitely not want to serve people.
In October, Zhiyun came to complain for a long time, and Zhiyun casually suggested that she, the 'big man' in charge of the affairs of the floating city, prepare to build a kindergarten, specifically to help parents who have no time to watch their children take care of their children, and by the way, they can also test the qualifications of these children to see if they are qualified to study in a magic school, and if they are qualified, they can be trained in advance, and if they don't, they can also teach them enlightenment knowledge.
At the moment, October and July are really interested in kindergarten.
In addition to these permanent residents, there are also many floating populations in the floating city.
There are merchants who come and go, and there are also people who come to visit and travel.
Recently, Zhiyun and Ouyang felt that the invasion that sneaked into the night with the wind was almost done, and they could reveal the secrets of the floating city. An annual visit day was determined - the twentieth day of the lunar month.
On this day, the apprentices hold events to celebrate the New Year, and people from all walks of life also enter the island through the mysterious passage to the sky, and the whole floating city is surprisingly lively, so lively that Zhiyun sometimes suspects that he has encountered Christmas and other festivals in the 21st century.
Today is the twentieth day of the lunar month. The magic school has completed recruitment, and the apprentices are on annual leave.
There is no shortage of scenery in the four seasons on the floating city, even if you want to enjoy the icebergs and Iceland on the front foot, it is not difficult to go to the rainforest on the second foot.
However, Layue, there must always be some wind and snow to set off the atmosphere, on the top of the Supreme Mage Tower of the Floating City, large groups of artificial snowflakes are flying in the wind, and in just one night, the entire Floating City has become a world of ice and snow.
Zhiyun sat on the flying car with her little daughter in her arms, and saw the students coming and going outside through the viewing window, each of them wearing beautiful but slightly thin school uniforms, with all kinds of flickering fireballs flying around them to keep warm.
Daiyu and her baby son Mingming came early, and they had been shopping below for a while, buying a lot of Floating City specialties, and they were being sent to Zhiyun's family by the flying carpet at this time.
Although it was not the first time to enjoy the breeze and floating clouds in the sky, Lin Daiyu was obviously still uncomfortable, closed her eyes, stepped on the flying carpet with a slight tremble, and waited until Zhiyun smiled and took the two of them into the flying car, then she let out a long breath, collapsed on the soft cushion, and took a cup of hot and wanton tea to sip.
Zhiyun smiled and shook her head: "When you first came, you can drive a flying car into the sea of clouds by yourself, let's Daiyu for the third time, why can't I stand it." ”
Daiyu has become a wife, a mother, according to the second master Bao, she has probably changed from a bright and shiny pearl to a rotten fish-eyed bead, but the years have loved her very much, adding a little bit of a woman's style, more charm and charm than when she was a little girl.
Looking up at Zhiyun, Daiyu smiled, her face was slightly red, she was still the little girl who was a little shy in front of her elders before, seeing her son being fiddled around like a doll by Baoyin, but he was motionless, very obedient, very sensible and pretending to be well-behaved, and there was a trace of laughter lines on his face, I remember the first time I was invited to the Floating City half a year ago, Daiyu was almost not shocked and lost her soul, and thought that she had met an immortal, and she couldn't slow down for a long time, for fear that one day in the sky and a year on the earth, she had been here for a long time, and after going back, The family and children are all gone, and the sea has become mulberry fields......
Zhiyun hugged her and laughed and talked for a long time before she eased up, but when she first came, she looked like she should be like this, and only said to Zhiyun - when she was a child, she always felt that Zhiyun was a fairy, and until she grew up, this impression still refused to dissipate, and now it seems that what happened to her when she was a child was really not a dream.
In any case, these two girls, Daiyu is indifferent in nature, and it will not be uncommon and strange, as long as she knows that the Aunt Ai she knows has not changed, the friends she knows have not changed, and the others don't matter, and Nan Nan is originally Ma Daha's character, these messes, ordinary people can't stand the 'things' when they see them, so that they don't have any bad impact on the two of them.
After everyone finished greetings, the flying car gradually became quiet, Ouyang, Zhiyun and Daiyu sat and watched the scenery, looking at the colorful shops, playgrounds, adults and children on the floating city, and the smiles on their faces were all peaceful and stable.
There are also a few people who may be coming for the first time, kneeling reverently on the side of the road to catch the water from the tree with a little fruit fragrance, and thinking it is fairy dew, probably such a scene has happened many times, until no one is watching, no one laughs, and after a while, there are young men and women wearing a magic hat engraved with the six-pointed star symbol on their heads, and they come over to be a 'tour guide' for the newcomers......
While looking at it, Zhiyun couldn't help but laugh and fell into Ouyang's arms, Ouyang also laughed, shook his head and said: "Our floating city is about to become a tourist attraction, it's quite like the Potala Palace, hehe." ”
"The Potala Palace? There is no 3D version of the Potala Palace, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai......"
Zhiyun rolled her eyes, just in time to see the entertainment area theater floating magic films, the content is Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai's musical, it is said that this 'big play', has been visited in the big theater for two consecutive years, earning countless tears, several well-known troupes in the Qing Dynasty arranged the play into a play, and were invited to sing at the homes of the nobles of Wang Sun all day long......
The feeling of floating in the clouds is very good, light and fluttering, and there is a sense of comfort.
Zhiyun looked at her own city below, and couldn't help but think, in fact, she and Ouyang came to this world and intervened, it is true that she did not have any intention of changing the people's livelihood and seeking the well-being of the people of the world at the beginning, after all, it is not very reliable to require the consciousness of the two cold mages to be high.
However, over the years, she has watched from a distance, Ouyang has done quite decently, not a faint gentleman.
At the very least, he did not make a big effort to raise troops and use military force, but also trained a new-style army, prepared a navy, and quelled the war on the frontier in one go, believing that with China's current military level, it should not suffer in a few hundred years.
At least, some of the apprentices in the Floating City of the Ministry of Industry have developed purifiers, and those industries that have a great impact on the environment have been renovated, and they have not relied on sacrificing the environment as overseas.
When the two of them went around searching for useful magical resources, they also brought back a lot of mineral resources for China by the way, several islands were developed in advance, and Australia and the South Seas are now all within China's territory.
The rule of officials may not be clear enough to be a little dusty, but at least it is better than the last years of Kangxi, I don't know how much, the implementation of various policies, regardless of whether it is copied from the original Yongzheng implementation, or Ouyang himself to improve and play, although there are both successful and failed, but in any case, the failure is also because of the early experiment, the control is strong, and it has not caused too much harm, and the successful one has really improved the living standards of the people.
"What do you think?"
Ouyang took a cup of fruit tea and handed it to Zhiyun, seeing his daughter-in-law looking at his face in a daze, a smile appeared in his eyes, "Is it good-looking?" ”
Lin Daiyu's face flushed, and she turned her head away from looking at the intimacy of other couples, although she had been a wife for a long time, Daiyu faced the couple
