Chapter 63 New Year's Gift

After listening to his wife's words, Li Sijin was silent for a long time and said solemnly, "Wuniang did the right thing."

Xin Zixuan's eyes lit up and she was a little surprised, but she didn't say a word. Li Sijin rarely praised a person. In her memory, he was polite, talented, right and wrong. However, he has the same nature as Mr. Li Ge, who is stuffy and hides all his feelings in his heart, which inexplicably makes people feel a little distant. If it hadn't been for the couple over the years, she would have really not figured out the ellipsis behind Li Sijin's sentence.

"Since someone deliberately left the person somewhere, I think it's just that you will find out and send him back. Whether it's sent there or someone to pick it up, once it has something to do with Xingyongbo's house, it's impossible for the palace not to know. Li Sijin is originally handsome. Over the years, Liang Ping has worn away his immature and green book and looks more elegant. He speaks slowly and in a hurry, and he will definitely be suffothed to death. Today, I heard a news in Hanlin Academy that it seems that the emperor intends to establish the crown prince.

"Who is it?" Xin Zixuan sat up straight, and her eyes followed Li Sijin's back.

"It's hard to say who it is, but I guess that the emperor imprisoned the two princes in the palace for fear of being instigated by another minister." Li Sijin paused and looked at the small half of the candlelight on the candlestick. "I heard that the emperor almost vomited blood in the court today. I'm afraid he can't stand it."

"Didn't you say you've recovered?" Xin Zixuan also knew about the emperor's illness, but she didn't expect it to be so serious.

"I'm afraid it's not a disease." Li Sijin raised the corners of his mouth and smiled coldly, which made Xin Zixuan confused. Yan Kaizhi or the prince, the two princes are inconvenient to leave the palace. They are the backbone of the two factions. Think about what will happen if people know Yan Kaizhi's serious injury?

One faction is in chaos, and one faction takes advantage of the opportunity to enter. Or is it a faction taking advantage of the momentum and taking advantage of the situation to suppress it? No matter what the result is, the court is bound to set off a whole storm, which may also affect the fish in the pond.

"Sir, why didn't the emperor make the second prince prince from the beginning?" Shaohua's eyes fell on the teacup on the table, watching Mama Rong skillfully wash the cup and hot the cup, and then make a cup of hot tea with a bright color and pleasant aroma. I took the teacup and smelled the sweet fragrance of tea. I couldn't wait to take a sip, but it was so hot that I spit out stones. Mother Rong raised her eyebrows, glanced at her, and spat out a sentence leisurely. If the fifth lady's character is not restrained, what can we do next year?

Shaohua puffed his face red with heat and said dissatisfiedly, "Sir, change the topic again."

After returning from Jingyin Temple, Xin Zixuan repeatedly told her to speak quietly. She was full of words and did not dare to talk to others.

Unexpectedly, on the next day, Li Sijin sent her a set of the latest four treasures of the literary hall, which made Shaohua confused. He ran to ask Xin Zixuan, and then said that this was an affirmation of Li Sijin's approach to her, and even said that Li Sijin was good to Shaohua. Xin Zixuan was often sent by Li Sijin with various calligraphy and paintings. I heard that it was a gift for her, but in fact, Li Sijin liked it and bought it by himself. So giving away what you like is also a way to give up your love.

Shaohua felt a little embarrassed to laugh and cry. No one gave a woman the four treasures of the study. Seeing that Simo had been showing envy for this set of four treasures of the study. Shaohua passed it to him, which made Simo very happy.

Although Li Sijin affirmed her approach, she asked Li Sijin to inquire about Yan Kaizhi's news. As a result, he swallowed Shaohua's problem with a sentence, "I thought Wu Niang was a smart person. It was just a coincidence." Suddenly, she admired Xin Zixuan. How could she get along with Li Sijin for so long and still be so harmonious? If she had to die of anger.

However, if you want to plant flowers, they will not bloom, and if you don't want to plant willows.

Just when Shaohua gave up inquiring about Yan Kaizhi from Li Sijin and even doubted the friendship between them, Li Sinian inexplicably sent a box of Yunxiang Pavilion incense powder. He also looked at Shaohua with a surprised face and asked seriously, "What is your relationship with Sanlang of the Anqing Hou family? Why did he come to ask me what you like and asked me to give this to you? The most depressed thing was that Song Yu's face was sting, clenching his teeth and refusing to say anything. When he was forced to ask, he said that Shaohua was clear in his heart.

"Who is Sanlang of Anqing Hou's family?" Shaohua knew for the first time that he was so popular.

"It's the fat man Song Yu." Li Sinian looked out of the window quietly.

Shaohua couldn't help laughing when he heard it. Although Song Yu was indeed stronger than Li Sinian, he could never be considered fat. Nothing. I went out with my sister-in-law last time and met him. Shaohua took the powder and opened the box, but found a small note sandwiched in the lid. After writing a few sentences in it, Yan Kaizhi was probably embarrassed to come forward and asked him to send a small gift to express his gratitude, and then come to the door to thank you later.

At the thought that the powder was actually given by Yan Kaizhi, Shaohua put away the powder box like honey and put it away like a baby.

Looking at Shaohua's happy face, Li Sinian expressed doubts: "Are you really busy?"

"Second brother, how old am I? How much power can I help?" Shaohua Road.

Li Sinian thought about it, Song Yu and Shaohua did not have much intersection, and at most it was related to Yan Kaizhi. Thinking of Yan Kaizhi, he couldn't help telling him, "You haven't been in contact with them recently. You may be a prince recently. Don't cause trouble."

Shaohua heard Mami Rong say earlier that the emperor actually wanted to establish Hongyi, so he was not surprised and even looked forward to it. However, Li Sinian said that public opinion fell to Hongwen, making Shaohua sweat. However, except for Li Sinian, Shaohua can't find anyone to ask about these things. I mentioned a few words with Ling, but I was scolded for being overseated. Anyway, it has nothing to do with them who is the emperor.

The weather is getting colder and closer to the end of the year. Ling began to be busy. Li Xunzhuo has not returned home yet. Ling is a little busy. Fortunately, Wanhua can still help. Therefore, he told Mother Rong for leave and asked several women to go back to the house and take Wanhua with her.

When Shaohua secretly told Mother Rong what Li Sinian said, Mother Rong glanced at her with an old god and said, "The world is long live. Can the people around him control what he decided?" Seeing that Shaohua still wanted to ask, Mother Rong frowned, "The fifth lady still less speculates about the idea of Long Live Master. I have been in the palace for so many years, and I dare not say that I know Long Live Master. You care so much about the second prince, don't you want to enter the palace?"

Shaohua waved his hand in a hurry and said in horror, "No, no, no, how can I want to go in?" I'm just curious why the emperor didn't set up a prince earlier, so that the people under him would not work so hard.

When Mother Rong heard Shaohua say this, she couldn't help sighing, "Fortunately, the fifth lady doesn't want to enter the palace, otherwise I will persuade you to give up the idea." Even if Hongwen's noble status is not paid attention, it will be difficult to gain a foothold, not to mention Shaohua. In fact, Long Live also has the difficulties of Long Live, which we can think of. If the fifth lady is thoughtful, it's better to practice more needles and threading and do some hooks. I think the seventh lady's craftsmanship has improved recently.

Shaohua is a little guilty. She is not interested in needle and thread at all. She would rather write more posts and play more songs every day.

"Don't be unhappy. If you like the right person, do you still have to come out to write and play the piano? After all, these wind and snowy things are just nosy. You still need to live a down-to-earth life. Look at the accounts of the third lady and the needle and thread of the seventh lady. You have to have someone to handle it. Mother Rong hates Shaohua.

"Do you also ask for the imperial concubine?" Shaohua was a little unhappy. Mother Rong didn't ask her to do so at the beginning, otherwise she would have learned it long ago.

M Mother Rong's eyes are half narrowed, "Can this be compared? If you also marry into the palace, I won't talk about you."

Shaohua stopped as soon as he heard it.

Counting the days, thinking that Li Xunzhuo will come back soon, Ling's mood also becomes happy. Taking the gifts from all over the house to Xuyuan, Liu shyly excused that he was not in good health and inconvenient to meet guests. Ling didn't say much. She left a list to let her have a look and tell her if she needed to add more.

"Mother, Xingyongbo's mansion and the Three Kings' mansion have sent congratulatory gifts. What can I do?" The pen in Wanhua's hand stopped in mid-air, and his eyebrows frowned. Shaohua, who was temporarily called to do chores, couldn't help raising his head and only heard Wanhua say to himself: "No, we don't have much contact with these two families. Such a heavy gift is nothing. Forget the Marquis's Mansion in Anqing, and the Xingyongbo Mansion has also been sent, as well as the Three Kings' Mansion.

"Didn't they send it in previous years?" Shaohua asked carefully.

Wanhua saw that Shaohua was rarely easy to learn, so he told her seriously: "Anqing Marquis's Mansion was there a few years ago, but later the old marquis was not very good at home. Master Song passed away, and his father and the second master Song were not incompatible, so there was less contact. However, even if it is because of the relationship of the eldest sister-in-law, this gift is heavy, and there is also Xingyongbo Mansion. Wanhua suddenly stopped talking, and Shaohua held his breath and looked at her nervously.

"What's wrong with Xingyong's Mansion? Maybe it's related to the eldest brother and the second brother. The third sister is too surprised." Shaohua pretended to be careless.

Wanhua said angrily, "If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall, even if you want to welcome you, you have to find a reason. Our family has never had much friendship with them. They came to give gifts for no reason, and they are not light. This needs to be known to outsiders and think that we have any unspeakable relationship with them.

"No, this is not a gift, maybe it's a grandfather's relationship." Shaohua frowned exaggeratedly and didn't expect the gift to be so exquisite.

Ling was still worried about whether to give gifts to the Fan family. Listening to Wanhua's words, he also felt reasonable and hurriedly picked up the list, "Let's go to Taihe Garden and ask your grandfather."

This matter can be big or small. At such a delicate time, such a subtle move. If she can't do it well, the responsibility lies with Ling. She didn't dare to underestimate it and immediately went to ask Mr. Li Ge.
