Chapter 41 Letter from Nanping
Yuefu study.
Yue Zhanpeng, with a vicissitudes of life, sat tired behind the desk. His left hand rubbed the protruding temple feebly. He looked at a man and a woman standing in front of the desk and said, "This is a letter from the Nanping Palace. You should also read it."
After saying that, she handed out the letter note in her right hand. The woman in white who had been standing in front of the desk stretched out a pair of white hands and took the letterwritten letter and spread it out between the two.
Before she saw half of the letter, the woman in white did not calm down. A pair of bright apricot eyes suddenly raised a layer of mist. She covered her mouth with her little hand and looked at Yue Zhanpeng and muttered, "How come! How can it be! How can my sister do it! Father, this is not true, is it?"
"Alas," Yue Zhanpeng sighed deeply and said, "The handwritten letter of the King of Nanping can still be fake. Yuer is a big crime this time. Now, according to the proposal in the letter, you will leave for Nanping Mansion tomorrow to accompany your sister and untie her.
The man who had been looking at the letterhead all the time and frowned said hesitantly, "Father, Yueqian's sister wrote that everything is fine. Now she suddenly suffers from this disaster. I'm afraid it won't be so simple."
"Big brother, what do you mean~~" The woman in white seemed to think of something, and her tearful eyes looked at the father who locked his eyebrows and didn't say anything, and a trace of understanding flashed in her eyes.
After the current emperor of the Nishang Empire got 16 princesses, he decreed Qiao Ke, the son of the king of Nanping, as the crown prince and lived in the East Palace two years ago.
But unexpectedly, a year ago, there was news from the palace that Concubine Yun was diagnosed by the imperial doctor that she was pregnant for three months. Half a year ago, Concubine Yun gave birth, and the first prince of the Holy Emperor was born.
For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the court about the ownership of the prince. The king of Nanping once asked for a decree to resign the title of prince for his son, but he was rejected by the emperor and issued an edict that the prince of this dynasty would only be Qiao Ke.
The emperor also did bad things with good intentions. An edict pushed the Nanping Wang family to the forefront of the storm, causing such disasters.
The anger in the heart of the woman in white ignited, and even her voice was not as delicate as just now: "How dare they? At least the fetus in my sister's womb is also surnamed Qiao. If my sister has a problem this time, I will definitely let them return it back ten times and a hundred times."
Yue Zhanpeng looked at her daughter with angry eyebrows and apricot eyes in front of her. She was in a trance. She was really more and more similar. In those years, she was also so clear about her kindness and resentment, and she did not hide her joy and anger at all, but now she is separated by yin and yang. If she knew the suffering of Yuer, she would definitely be so angry. Thinking of this, Yue Zhanpeng's heart ached like a needle cone, and his back, which was not straight, was a little crooked.
The woman in white looked at his eyes full of remembrance and knew what he thought. The anger on his face was quickly covered by concern, and her voice softened a little: "Father, do you miss your mother again?"
Yue Zhanpeng endured the pain in his heart and a kind smile appeared on his face: "Don't worry, Yueer, you can't be naughty all the way to Nanping Mansion this time. When you see your eldest sister, you two can open more and untie it. After all, you can still have it when the child is gone. If you collapse, it will be in vain to say anything.
The woman in white thought carefully about the meaning of her words and nodded sensiblely.
"Father, don't worry, I will take good care of Yue'er. My sister will also leave it to me. I know how to do it."
Yue Zhanpeng looked at the standing children and was very gratified. He couldn't help thinking of his dead wife again. The pain in his heart was a little deeper, and he didn't want to worry his children. He dozed off his eyes, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you all go down and get ready. Jun'er will come to the study after dinner. I still have something to tell you."
Yue Lingjun agreed without any hesitation, so he pulled the sleeves of the woman in pink and motioned to leave together.
The little mouth of the woman in white opened, and finally said nothing. She looked at her father worriedly and went out of the study behind Yue Lingjun.
Yue Zhanpeng opened his eyes, looked at the back that disappeared at the door, and was instantly overwhelmed by the tide of thoughts
This woman in white is Yue Lianyue. In three years, she has already faded her childishness when she was young. She is more and more beautiful, and more like Meng Yanran in her youth. Therefore, every time Yue Zhanpeng sees his daughter, it is always difficult to restrain his feelings. If it hadn't been for A Yue's dying advice a year ago, he would be afraid I've been with her for a long time.
Lian Yue followed Yue Lingjun, walked out of the study for a long distance, and asked Yue Lingjun's back with lonely eyes, "Brother, do you think I should not appear in front of my father?"
Yue Lingjun paused when he heard the words, turned around and looked at the lost little sister all over, and rubbed her hair sadly. "Yueer, don't think nonsense. My father just hasn't come out of the pain of his mother's departure. It will get better slowly."
Lian Yue nodded randomly and said with a forced smile, "Yueer understands that I'll go back to Lanxiangyuan first if there is nothing to do."
Yue Lingjun didn't say anything more. He stood still and looked at Lian Yue's back and shook his head helplessly.
In the past year, such a dialogue between the two has not been once or twice. At the beginning, Yue Lingjun's answer may still have some effect on Lian Yue, but now, it can only be said like this.
What's more, the pain is more than a pity month. Perhaps, my father asked Yueer to go to Nanping Mansion with him this time for the same reason.
Thinking of Nanping Mansion, Yue Lingjun's eyes were a little sharp, and he snorted coldly in his heart. Unexpectedly, is it true that my Yue family is ignorant? No matter who it is, since you hurt my elder sister, how can you still live well?
"Qingfeng, follow the young lady far away. When she enters Lanxiang Garden, you can go to Fenghuangling to send a letter and tell Chu Chen that the young lady and I are going to Nanping Mansion tomorrow. During my absence, ask him to ask him if he will go with me."
After saying that, he hesitated for a moment and continued, "By the way, also ask Lan Shui to see if she will go with her."
"Yes!" As soon as Qingfeng heard the sentence, his eyes lit up, and even the voice of answering was mixed with a little excitement and impatience. "Do you have any other instructions?" There was obviously some envy in the eyes of Qingqiu standing aside.
Yue Lingjun did not blame his subordinates for their gaffe. He waved his hand and asked him to retreat.
They don't know what they think. Since they were knocked down by Lanshui three years ago, they have been worried about it. In the past three years, they have been looking for Lanshui to learn from each other by the time when they sent a message to Fenghuangling. They have been abused again and again, but they are happy again and again.
Even Yue Lingjun is a little envious of them, and all the news he knows about Lanshui is from their mouths. I haven't seen Lanshui for more than half a year. Will she come tomorrow?
Yue Lingjun, who was shaking his mind, did not see the worried eyes of Qingqiu behind him, otherwise he would have noticed the difference.
Lanxiang Garden
Lian Yue was still disappointed until she entered Lanxiang Garden. Ziling, who was fiddling with the flowers and plants in the yard, quickly put down the flower scissors in her hand, helped her open the bead curtain at the door, looked at her room, and did not follow up.
Ziling put down the bead curtain in her hand, walked to Qingfeng, who was still standing uneasy in the courtyard, and asked softly, "But that's it when she came out of the study."
Qingfeng nodded and said softly to Ziling, "I have to go to Fenghuangling. I guess I will come back very late. You are depressed now. Don't wait for me at night. Go to bed early."
Ziling nodded sweetly on her face and told him, "You guys should work harder about the young master and Sister Lan, but don't let Sister Lan notice it."
"I know that you have explained it many times. If it goes well today, the young master will see Miss Lan."
"What does this mean?" Ziling asked curiously.
Qingfeng's forehead is row, "Oh, I just want to go to Fenghuangling and forget all the business. The young master and the young lady will leave for Nanping Mansion tomorrow morning. You can pack some luggage for the young lady later."
Hearing this, Ziling frowned and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? What's wrong?"
"I don't know. Qingqiu and I are outside the study. The young master told me to do so. Well, it's getting late. I'll go first."
When Ziling finished his clothes, he hurriedly left.
In July of the year before last, Qingfeng begged Yue Lingjun to ask Lianyue for Ziling. Now the two have been married for nearly two years. After getting married, Lianyue wanted to arrange another errand for Ziling in Yue's mansion, but Ziling himself did not want to. Qingfeng naturally focus on Ziling's will.
Therefore, Ziling is still serving Lianyue, and the two have been gathering less and more. It was not until Lianyue moved back to the house three months ago that she could stay together often. Now, she has been pregnant for more than a month.
However, if there is a loss, there must be gain. Ziling's medical skills have also improved a lot under Menglan's **.
As Lian Yue's personal maid, how could Ziling not know what Lian Yue was losing? In the past, the owner of the family was a spoiled lady. Now, it has been three months since he returned home, and the father and daughter have met several times with one hand.
If it was Ziling before marriage, she might complain about the owner, but now, she can understand more or less. There is nothing she can do. Who makes the lady and her look so similar!
In the room, in front of the dressing table, Lian Yue stared at the person standing in the mirror. Her melon-shaped face was as white and tender as jade. Under the two slightly sad willow leaves eyebrows, a pair of eyes looking forward to life. The clear apricot eyes looked flexible and cute. The cherry mouth was red, and her dark and shiny hair was tied into a single bun, diagonally inserted. A seven-quarter white jade hairpin. A moon-white smoke yarn loose flower skirt vividly reflects the beautiful figure.
In the past, Lian Yue would have been beautiful, but now she is just staring at the people in the mirror, as if she is not looking at herself.
He confided to the person in the mirror: "Mom, my father misses you so much, and Yueer misses you so much. My sister's child is gone, and she is sadly bedridden. Yueer will leave for her sister's tomorrow, so that my father won't have to suffer because he sees me. Mother, why do I look so much like you? I really want to eat a Yan Dan, but will my father be more uncomfortable like this? Mother, Yueer misses you so much. I miss you so much. However, my mother can rest assured that Yueer is very powerful now. This time, she must help her sister teach those vicious people a good lesson and let them know that the people of the Yue family can't be provoked!"
