Chapter 25 Pastoral
He Shi became a saying. At the beginning of the month, she ordered her to meet, and Xiao He brought the news that she was pregnant again and had been pregnant for two months. Naturally, He was naturally very surprised. She kept complaining that she had to come to the palace since she was pregnant, Xiao He said, "Grandmother and husband also told me not to come, but my grandmother wanted to bring Linglang came to show his second sister. In addition, there are only a few people in the pastoral family. If I don't accompany my grandmother to the palace, I can't ask my grandmother to come to the palace alone at this age? Even if there is a maid to help, there is no junior around to make people talk. Mother - I mean Xu, you know that the second sister doesn't like her very much. Grandma said that the second sister was very wronged to live in the palace, and she didn't even dare to go back to the palace to give birth to children. Why do you have to ask her to see someone she doesn't like again?
"Alas." He frowned and sighed, "There's really nothing you can do... Be more careful. I'll leave the palace later, and I'll see you off."
Little He smiled and said, "It's not the first time I've had a baby. How can I not know my body? The doctor also said that the tire seems to be very stable. Don't worry, sister.
Seeing that she really looked good, He thought that Xiao He had always been very satisfied with the marriage of marrying Mu Bichuan. In addition, she now has children, and the position of the tomb woman is also very stable. What's more, the original son is good, and there should be no change in this pregnancy. At the moment, she was slightly relief and said, "Just Did you bring Long Lang? Where's the girl? Why didn't you bring it?"
"The maid who took care of her yesterday made her catch a cold and cough in the middle of the night." Xiao He frowned when he mentioned this matter. "Grandmother said that the second sister now has three princes and Princess Xiping. She is noble. Don't ask the princess to bring her illness."
"You can't forgive such an unintentional maid!" Hearing this, He immediately said that now because she had no idea of fertility, her younger brother He Hai has died again. She loves her only sister very much. Little He's children are basically treated as their own children - if such a maid is in the Dingxing Hall, He will definitely directly kill the waiter next to the warning.
Little He nodded: "I've been chased out."
"Just kicking out?" He was not very satisfied, but when he thought about it, he also understood, "Shen Taijun has always had a reputation for kindness. You are now her granddaughter, and it makes sense to follow some old people."
The two sisters said a few common sayings. He carefully asked the whole family and Bai's body. Little He answered one by one, and finally said, "Sister, what's wrong with the Empress Dowager?"
"Is she sick?" He was stunned, but a little surprised.
Because the little He family is now a member of the herdsman, Shen Taijun followed him into the palace. Of course, Shen Taijun went directly to see his granddaughter and will not come to Dingxing Hall. Xiao He wants to serve his grandmother. Of course, he can only follow Shen Taijun. It was Mu Biwei who sent people to take people to Chenglian Hall in front of Ganquan Palace and greeted there first. He found another opportunity to meet her sister in Dingxing Hall. The two ancestral grandchildren and sisters talked about their own privately. At about the same time, He sent Xiao He back to Chenglian Hall, and Mu Biwei personally sent her grandmother and elder sister-in-law to the palace.
He has been looking forward to her sister's arrival this morning, but she hasn't asked anyone to come up to ask what's new happened in the palace.
At present, Xu Taozhi came nearby and reported, "Mother, Xingzhi did come to report that today, saying that a wife went to Ganquan Palace to say greeting her. Song Xian came out and said that the Empress Dowager was ill, and the wives kowtowed outside the palace and went to the palaces to meet the concubines... Inside, even Mrs. Wuying County I didn't see it."
"I haven't seen Mrs. Wuying County?" In the Chenglian Hall, Mu Biwei listened to Ge Nuo's confession, smiled thoughtfully and said, "So at noon, the whole court and the opposition must know the news of the phoenix's body violation?"
Shen Taijun is very worried: "The Empress Dowager..."
"Grandma doesn't have to worry." Mu Bi slightly took the bracelet on her arm and smiled, "A few days ago, the Empress Dowager was angry with Her Majesty... Anyway, the Empress Dowager doesn't like her granddaughter to serve her."
"Although the empress dowager doesn't want you to serve, the younger generation is a concubine to the empress dowager, and you should always do your best." Shen Taijun grew up under the guidance of virtuous virtue, and she also extremely recognized that women's morality is the most important. However, her only granddaughter became more and more crooked. However, she was really guilty about this granddaughter and was not willing to blame her. She could only persuade her in a tone of almost pleading.
Mu Biwei said casually and perfunctorily, "Grandma, don't worry, granddaughter will send someone to ask."
is called Ge Nuo, "Is it Song Xianren who came out to answer in Ganquan Palace now? If you ask, you can ask me to serve you.
Ge Nuo also didn't move, but smiled and said, "According to Song Xianren, now the Empress Dowager is impatient to see people, and even Mrs. Wuying County can't be seen. I'm afraid the Empress Dowager is not energetic."
Mu Bi showed a "sure enough" and "not the best" expression, and said innocently to Shen Taijun, "Grandma, you see, this is not that the granddaughter doesn't want to go to the empress dowager to do filial piety, but the empress dowager doesn't like her granddaughter!"
Shen Taijun squeezed his lips and felt that there was nothing to say - although the empress dowager was noble, Mu Biwei was her direct granddaughter. Whenever Mu Biwei was disliked by the Empress Dowager, such a virtuous person as Shen Taijun was also unhappy.
At this time, Xiping and Mu Yun ran in one after another, followed by a large number of waiters, all whispering, "Your Highness, be careful!"
"Lang Jun, run slowly!"
The two jumped on Mu Biwei and Shen Taijun's knees and said happily about their water play - now it's April, and the climate is getting warmer. The water in the Chenglian Hall is live water, which is clearly soft. Mu Bi smiled and listened to the two of them shouting that they almost fell into the water after catching fish. What happened in the pool asked with a smile, "Are you scared?"
Shen Taijun blamed Mu Run: "You are naughty, why do you still pull your Highness? If your Highness falls into the water, how will your grandmother punish you?
Mu Long is now three years old and hurriedly argued, "Grandma, it's not that I'm going to play with water. It's my cousin Xiping who said that there are fish in the pool and suggested catching it, so I followed him."
Xiping was scolded by Mu Biwei, spit out his tongue and said with a smile, "Mother, a large group of people are following. My son thought that there was something wrong with his cousin, and some people pulled it up and had a good time." He leaned on Mu Biwei and twisted and acted coquettishly. "My son is so boring in this palace. My brothers are still young, and Xintai is so boring now. It's rare for my cousin to come. Don't blame my mother and concubine?"
Mu Biwei didn't think it was a big deal, so she just clicked her forehead, said a few words, and comforted Murong a few words. After all, Murong didn't see much with this aunt, and she was a little shy. Xi Ping saw that he was clearly restrained in front of Mu Biwei, and turned After a blink of an eye, he found another excuse and took him out to play.
When the two children went out, Shen Taijun said, "After all, Your Highness is a princess. Don't blame her for such a trivial matter."
"Grandma felt that Yutong was not from her granddaughter, so she broke the matter impartially and blamed her and comforted Longlang, which would make Yutong feel wronged?" Mu Bi smiled and said, "Grandma, don't worry... Yutong doesn't think so carefully. What kind of person is her granddaughter? Doesn't grandma know? How can a granddaughter teach such a careful princess? What kind of life do you have to live after everything? It's really boring. My granddaughter doesn't teach so much!"
"Even if it's not a biological child... Your Highness is always Jinzhi Yuye, and Longlang is a minister and a guest..." Shen Taijun hasn't finished his words yet, but he didn't expect Princess Xiping to say in a crisp voice from outside the door: "What my great-grandmother said is wrong! Yutong is a princess, but she is also a cousin!"
Mu Bi smiled and scolded, "What is this rule to eavesdrop on the elders? A mother's concubine tomorrow wants to ask Huang Nvshi in person!"
Xiping jumped in, made a grimace and said, "My son just happened to pass by outside. I don't believe that my mother and great-grandmother can ask Mother Deng."
Deng smiled and said, "I dare not hide it. Your Highness is playing hide-and-seek with Mu Langjun!" Now it's Your Highness's turn to look for it, and it's indeed passing by the door.
"It's the tip of my ears." Xiping is very proud.
Mu Biwei said, "It's almost the same." He asked her again, "Do you have something to say to your great-grandmother?"
Xiping nodded and said, "Grandma said that cousin Renong was a minister and Yutong was a princess, but didn't the mother salute when she saw her great-grandmother? Yutong is also the cousin of Long's cousin! The mother said that the sister should give up some younger brothers, and precisely because the cousin is a guest, Yutong, the master, should do his best as a landlord. What's wrong with not making his cousin? Just now, it was indeed Yutong who led his cousin to play fish in the water together, so it made the great-grandmother worried. Naturally, the responsibility did not be on his cousin in Yutong, and the mother scolded him. Isn't Yutong supposed to be?"
Shen Taijun is gentle and is not a person who is good at arguing. In particular, Xiping is nominally the daughter of her granddaughter, but in fact, she has no blood relationship with Mu Biwei. At that time, Mu Biwei was promoted to the throne by raising her. Shen Taijun can't help but respect the princess very much. Now he is said by Xiping's words: " It's my great-grandmother who is confused.
"Where is your great-grandmother old?" Xiping has become a habit of coaxing Empress Dowager Gao and Princess Wen in the past two years. At that moment, he opened his mouth and said, "Yutong saw that her great-grandmother had just hugged Yutong's hand and was strong!"
Shen Taijun has always liked children because of the shepherd Ding Shanbo. He couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. At this moment, he threw away the previous refuted embarrassment and said with a smile, "Well, my great-grandmother also wants to grow old slowly so that I can see you grow up!"
"Yutong also wants to see her great-grandmother from time to time." Xiping handed over a well-intentioned look and said, "My father always calls Yutong to listen to my mother's concubine. Yutong thinks about it. Sometimes if you want to do something that my mother refuses, you have to count on your great-grandmother to enter the palace!"
Mu Bi said angrily, "What bad things do you want to do?"
Xiping turned his eyes and said with a smile, "I won't tell my mother now!" With that, they jumped out, and Deng, Dieer, Geqing and Getian quickly followed.
Shen Taijun laughed and said, "Your Highness is cheerful and generous, very cute."
"My granddaughter thinks this is what Jinzhi Yuye looks like." Mu Bi said slightly, "If you should laugh, you should laugh, and if you should be angry, you should be angry. Anyway, the son-in-law can't accept the concubine and can't divorce his wife. If the son-in-law's parents hadn't gone crazy, would they have treated the princess badly? Since you have been born into the royal family in this life, why do you need to learn those tedious rules to restrain yourself? Is it worth treating yourself badly for the rest of your life if you ask others to say a word of virtue?
She was talking about the Empress Dowager Gao, but thinking that Shen Taijun was also famous, she quickly said, "Grandma, my granddaughter has no other meaning, but I don't want to restrain her."
Shen Taijun laughed and said, "Where can grandma miss you so much?" He sighed again, "You have taught Your Highness very well, and I can see that Your Highness regards you as your biological mother."
"She was brought up by her granddaughter and has never seen Jiang. If she is still not close to her granddaughter, her granddaughter will really cry." Mu Bi said with a smile.
"Now it's much happier to come here than before." Shen Taijun smiled and said, "After all, places with children are always angry. Watching them suddenly run here and there, they are always lively and feel relieved." He added, "The little maids behind Your Highness are not very old. Are they specially selected to play with Your Highness?"
Mu Bi nodded slightly: "The twin maids are the nieces of Cen Ping, the general manager of the palace. After their granddaughter returned to the palace, they begged Your Majesty to transfer Cen Ping back to the inner secretary. The two looked good, so they gave it to Yutong. In a few years, Yutong grew up. They have served the eldest daughter of the emperor and can also find a good family. Then the granddaughter will give it to her. Our generous makeup is also a flat face for Cen.
As he was talking, he came in with a strange face and reported, "Empress, old lady, He Xuanhui from Dingxing Hall came over with the young lady, saying that he wanted to see her nephew."
