Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Lord of the Hou Mansion
Although He Yaolong was a lustful emperor who regarded women as clothes, he always valued his heirs. Previously, Helian Hao was rumored to be ominous when he was born, and he was a little unhappy, so he has not been very close to him all these years.
Five years have passed, and nothing ominous seems to have happened, and Heyaolong's dislike for this son has gradually faded.
I heard the eldest son say that Helian Hao had recently lost his mother, so he felt a little bit of calf licking in his heart.
He went to the side hall to see Helian Hao, and saw that the child's face was red from high fever, his eyes were closed, and his brows were frowned, as if he was in pain.
He sat next to him, looked at the fourth son for a while, sighed, touched his forehead, and tucked the corners of the quilt for him.
Xu knew that someone was approaching, Helian Hao opened his heavy eyelids slightly, and vaguely saw a majestic and square face, and he vaguely shouted "Father".
He Yaolong's heart fluctuated a little, he touched his son's face, and said gently: "Father is here, don't be afraid." ”
I don't know if it was He Yaolong's words that made Helian Hao's heart settle down, or his strong will to survive, the next day, the high fever actually subsided.
He Yaolong also instructed the chief eunuch to arrange more people to serve the four princes.
With the careful care of the palace people, Helian Hao's illness is getting better day by day.
After a few more days, I was able to get out of bed and walk around.
During this period, He Yaolong never came again, but the eldest prince came to visit his younger brother every day.
After Helian Hao recovered, He Qiyu still came to call him to study with him every day. But he always felt that there was something different about this younger brother after he recovered from his illness.
In the past, he thought that this younger brother was thin and cowardly, and he was withdrawn, but after this illness, he found that Helian Hao seemed to be more and more lonely and cold, and occasionally a look of horror flashed in his eyes, like a cold man, like a sharp sword.
He didn't think much about it, he just thought that his younger brother had lost his mother and was seriously ill, so his heart had changed.
Although Helian Hao was plagued by many disasters and diseases, he also grew up to the age of sixteen.
Helian Hao first met Concubine Li at the age of sixteen. At that time, Concubine Li was only the little county lord of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, and she was fifteen years old that year.
The loyal and brave Marquis Ji Zhenting was originally a military general, but because of his meritorious service in the battle, he was named Hou. There are three sons and one daughter under his knees, and the most favored is naturally Ji Qingli's youngest daughter.
Although Ji Qingli is very favored, the loyal and brave marquis has always governed the army and the family well, and he dotes on his daughter but does not spoil him. The children of the Ji family have all practiced martial arts since childhood, and Ji Qingli is no exception.
The fifteen-year-old youngest daughter of the Ji family is good at dancing with a long whip, loves to wear red clothes, looks delicate and smart, throws up the long whip to be heroic, as dazzling as a fire phoenix.
The loyal and brave marquis returned from the victory and entered the palace to face the saint, and Ji Qingli also followed his mother into the harem to meet the queen.
asked the queen Niang'an, the queen and her mother were talking about some gossip, she was bored listening on the side, and the queen smiled and asked her to go to the back garden of Changning Palace to relieve her boredom.
Ji Qingli was eager to sneak away, and when she heard the queen's words, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly saluted the queen and went out like a gust of wind.
The queen looked at her happy figure and smiled, and Mrs. Ji smiled: "This little girl is too rude, which makes the queen smile." ”
"Where, Qingli is innocent and lively, I like it when I look at it. The queen was still smiling.
Mrs. Ji smiled silently.
The queen picked up the bowl on the desk, gently pinched the lid and brushed the tea like a seal, and asked as if unintentionally: "Qing Li is already fifteen years old? ”
Mrs. Ji glanced at the bowl in the queen's hand, the light fetal porcelain was painted with the pattern of the blue and white entangled phoenix, which was luxurious and elegant, lining the queen's Yingying hands more like tender white shallots, Mrs. Ji looked away, smiled gently and with a helpless tone: "This girl is still young, jumping up and down all day long, I don't know the severity, the concubine still wants to keep her by her side for a few more years to discipline her." ”
The queen put down the porcelain cover in her hand, and the crisp sound of "dang" made people feel harsh for no reason, she raised her eyes and glanced at Mrs. Ji, and smiled elegantly: "Mrs. Ji is too modest." Putting the bowl back on the table, rubbing the lid of the cup with his bare hands, he said slowly, "I think it's time to take a concubine when Yu'er comes." ”
Mrs. Ji's heart suddenly jumped, with a smile on her face, she picked up the bowl and lifted the lid to take a sip of tea.
