Chapter 75 End of this volume
On December 14 of the eighth year of Taining, Guang Youmu gave birth to a son in the palace. Both mother and son were safe, but the road was blocked by the collapse of the cliff. It was not until December 26. Near New Year's Eve, the messengers in the palace could reach the palace and see the third son of the emperor.
As the end of the year approaches and the climate is cold, there is heavy snow under the mountains. The Empress Dowager Gao is worried about her children, so she ordered Mu Biwei not have to rush back to the New Year and wait for the third son to have a full moon, and the next year the climate will return.
This hit the arms of several people in the palace - but He and Ye were called back after all. As compensation, the Empress Dowager Gao allowed Shen Taijun to take her eldest grandson and great-grandson up the mountain after the day, accompanied Mu Biwei, and sent a large number of rewards to the palace.
On Ji Shen's side, in addition to being overjoyed, he sent rewards like running water to the mountain. For a while, although Guang Youmu was still far away from the palace, his attention has increased, and even the Changjin Palace, which has become more and more neglected in the past six months, has also attracted attention.
In the palace, several people teased each other: "This is really soft to receive rewards."
"It's all the mother's blessings. Let's enjoy the blessings as slaves. There are many good things that I haven't even seen before. These days are really an eye-opener." He squeezed his lips and smiled, "I'm afraid it's not easy to clean up when you go back."
Su Ge said next to him, "Then move a few more times."
"What a shallow eyelid." He said to his cousin with a smile, "Where does our mother care about these now? Besides, the Empress Dowager and Her Majesty have given a lot of rewards this time. In fact, the good things are still in the palace. Aren't many large items sent to Changjin Palace first now? What's more, this Yingyingtai, can't we come back next time? I moved a few more times, and I didn't have to look frivolous and underestimated.
Su Ge was unconvinced and made a grimace to his cousin and said, "The Empress has now gave birth to the third son of the emperor. Who dares to underestimate it? How many princes are there in the palace? Even those who talk are just jealous. Will they say, don't I have a long mouth?"
He said to Wanqi, "Look at her, I just told her a few words, and she's getting hot here!" It's a great loss that we are still in the palace! You have to quarrel with people seven or eight times a day in the palace?"
"It's up to her." He smiled and said, "How many people in the palace are like a woman under her knees, and how many people can be raised by themselves? Not to mention that she is proud, I can't help raising my head.
"Then you have to pay attention." He joked, "Don't hit the pillar carefully!"
Several people laughed together.
Listening to the laughter outside, Mu Biwei said to Ah Shan, "I also feel much more comfortable now."
"The same is true of slaves." A Shan's heart was exhausted, and he kept guarding the third son who had been identified inside and outside. He sighed and was glad, "I don't know when you will arrive?"
"Grandma always has to spend the New Year at home after the sacrifice. Fortunately, we don't have many relatives." Mu Bi exhaled slightly and said lightly, "Xu can also control most of it, but she can also get out."
A Shan knew that Mu Biwei didn't like to mention Xu, so she didn't answer this and only said, "This time, Longlang is also coming. The girl has been thinking about him for several years, and now she can finally take a look."
"Well, I'm not very worried. The mountain road is so slippery, and he's still small..." Mu Bi sighed slightly, "After the Spring Festival, he's only four years old, and he's not as big as Xiping. Don't freeze."
"You can take a soft sedan chair on the road, and there will definitely be charcoal fire in the soft sedan chair." Ah Shan smiled and said, "Don't worry too much. Besides, when you get to the palace, you can ask someone to take some hot spring water to bathe the Lang and get rid of the cold."
Mu Biwei thought about her relatives coming after the Spring Festival and was happy in her heart.
............................................................
On New Year's Eve, the palace is naturally not as lively as the palace, but because of Mu Bi's safe production, although it is not lively, it is extremely festive.
Mu Biwei could also get up at this time. Ashan refused to ask her to blow the wind. Fortunately, the window in the delivery room was replaced by glass inlaid before, which made Ashan get a double reward for his hair outside. Through the glazed window, she received thanks and blessings from everyone. Several close maids also came in to thank her in person. When she was happy, she was still in her baby again. The young son also gave a reward. In this way, after dark, everyone except the people on rotation can have a good rest - this is the leisure that can't be obtained in the palace. After all, Mu Bi is high and spoiled. In previous years, Chenglian Hall was the busiest from top to bottom.
The palace people had eaten the banquet carefully prepared by Cen Ping. When the big-faced maid entered the delivery room to accompany Mu Biwei to guard her son, she knelt down and congratulated with the palace people guarding outside. Mu Bi smiled and gave a very rich reward, so everyone was very happy. Except for the people on duty, they all went to settle down, leaving only Ashan and Wan. She was still in the delivery room with several little maids.
In the morning, because everyone seemed to be leisurely in the palace, there was a kneeling celebration in the early morning. Mu Biwei rewarded him with banquets everywhere, and even the guards of the palace also had a share. In the afternoon, she got leisure and laughed with Ah Shan: "When I was in the palace, I thought I couldn't be idle this year. Gain Palace Because there are many people and banquets, I don't want to do a lot of things in this palace. I feel cumbersome just because of their greetings several times.
"Now that the girl has a little man, she naturally can't wait to watch it all the time. How can she bother them?" A Shan smiled, "It's just that such a festive day should please Xiaolangjun to grow strong."
When there was no one, Ashan only mentioned Xiaolangjun. When there were people, she said that the little prince, as if her previous worried mood had not completely calmed down, and she could not accept that the child was regarded as a royal bloodline so quickly - fortunately, now Mu Biwei can also match, and the Empress Dowager herself ordered her I stayed in the palace for a few more days before going back. In this way, the child grew up quickly. After returning, what he said could be covered up.
Mu Biwei didn't care about the subtlety of her name, but said, "I don't know how to be lively in the palace now?"
"It's no different from previous years." Ah Shan thought for a moment and said, "There are many newcomers in the palace this year, and You Eying is also very lively. In addition, didn't they say last time that You Eying's sister, Princess Gaoyang, is a versatile person who dances all around. I guess it's more lively than in previous years?" She smiled again, "It's just that I think that those concubines can't envy the purity of the girls here!"
"I can't wait to stay here for a few more days." Mu Bi stroked her son's face with emotion, "It's good to see him grow up quickly."
A Shan smiled and said, "Xiaolangjun grows up and says it's fast, and he can run all over the ground in a sudden!" I'm afraid that the girl will feel that he is too fast-looking and not as to recall the cuteness when he was still in his baby. At that time, when she becomes naughty, the girl will feel that Xiaolangjun is still so quiet and attractive now.
She sighed, "Previously, the lady with the eldest man seemed to be in front of her, and suddenly the girl also became a mother."
"Didn't I raise Yutong a few years ago?" Mu Biwei said, "It's said that I haven't seen her for months." Her face became a little serious. "These days, the palace has sent water as a reward. I'm afraid she knows it, but don't make her sad."
Ashan said disapprovingly, "Her Royal Highness is still young. Even if someone said the instigating savory words, she will go back to the girl's side and teach her again. If she is sincere, the girl already has her own flesh and her own flesh anyway. A princess has been raised for several years, and it will be done when she declines?"
Mu Bi cried and laughed, "At the beginning, when Yutong just came over, didn't you take it seriously and take it in person?" Why don't you feel sorry for her all of a sudden?"
"That's also for girls." A Shanli said confidently, "Now that the girl has her own bones and blood, in the eyes of slaves, naturally Xiaolangjun is much more important than Her Royal Highness. I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at Xiaolangjun in the palace now! Where is there too much spirit to take care of Princess Xiping? If it hadn't been for the reputation of the girl, I would have had to take the princess back, and the maidservant felt that if Zuo Zhaoyi treated the princess well, it would be nothing to keep it in the Hualuo Hall!"
"You!" Mu Bi shook her head slightly and said, "Yutong is not big. Now she still needs to be taken care of, but after raising her for so many years, she has been given to Zuo Zhaoyi. Even if Zuo Zhaoyi treats her well, I can't rest assured. Don't forget that Zuo Zhaoyi is now raising Princess Changkang! Where can we put Yutong in the first place? Besides, she called my mother's concubine over the years and gave it away in vain. How could there be such a thing?
She muttered, "However, after returning to the palace, the manpower is indeed ready."
"Previously, Fan and Deng's family around the princess looked cautious these days, and the maidservant looked at Fan more than Deng's." A Shan said, "After going back, it's better to transfer Fan to Gu Xiaolangjun..."
"It's not just that." Mu Biwei said, "From today, Yutong is also five years old. The people around her must be officially matched. Although there are many people serving her now, the only maid of honor who really follows her is the butterfly, and it must be fully matched."
Ashan said, "If you want to say this, now the Lanhui Hall is not open, and there is no suitable county owner in the clan to accompany you to study in the palace. The maidservant is wondering whether to choose a playmate for the princess?"
"Five years old is too young." Mu Bi shook her head slightly and said, "At least eight years old, you have to be intelligent and interesting. Otherwise, wouldn't Deng and others be asked to see a few more people?"
"If you want to say eight years old, a few days ago, Cen Ping mentioned two choices with the maidservant, both of whom are nine years old." Ashan said with a smile.
Mu Bi asked with a smile, "He is a coincidence. I didn't expect that he would think about it first?"
Ashan said, "Originally, he wanted to recommend serving Xiaolangjun. I told him that Xiaolangjun must have been brought by the girl in person now. When Xiaolangjun grows up, he will choose the people to serve him. I'm afraid he will be more careful, and according to the rules of the palace, when the prince is old, he will move to live in Linzhi Palace. At that time He mainly serves the maid. If he wants to plan for his relatives, it's better for girls to follow the princess. As long as he serves him carefully, is he afraid that he will not have a good future when he is old? Cen Ping begged the maidservant to say Xiang, and wanted to ask his cousin to serve Princess Xiping.
"Oh? What is it like?" Mu Biwei heard that it was recommended by Cen Ping - although Cen Ping had something to ask for this time, she really did her best. As long as it was suitable, she did not mind giving Cen Ping a personal face.
Ashan smiled and said, "I took it over two or three days ago. Yesterday and today, everyone kowtowed to the girl and they were also in it, but they knelt far away, or call me over to have a look?"
Mu Bi nodded slightly: "Look."
Ashan said that two eight- or nine-year-old girls, dressed neatly and combed Shuangya, came to the delivery room, knelt down through the window to say greetings, and congratulated them again, and looked very regular.
Mu Biwei stood in front of the window and called for exemption, making them stand on the cloister to avoid the wind. She asked Ah Shan to ask a few questions, which was also a clear-mouthed appearance. She wink at Ah Shan. Ah Shan whispered, "The people of Gao Qi have checked. They are all the daughters of Cen Ping's cousin. His cousin has several sons and are ready to adopt one. He will retire in the future, so he can't help but pay special attention to the future of his cousin's children.
"Then stay first." Mu Biwei said that the two nine-year-old girls couldn't afford anything. She asked, "What are their names?"
This sentence was asked a little higher, and the two girls outside said obediently, "I was born as a concuous maidservant, and I'm afraid that the humble name will be humiliated by the Empress, and I beg the Empress for a name."
Mu Biwei was thinking about herself. Suddenly, she saw a figure in the back window. Her heart moved and casually said, "Just call Ge Qing and Ge Tian!"
G Qing and Ge Tian were sent away. Sure enough, Nie Yuansheng arrived with the smell of wine - Mu Biwei saw him standing in the distance looking at the swat with excitement, and couldn't help crying. The two were relatively for a long time before she choked and said, "He's fine!"
"I know." Nie Yuansheng's eyes also turned red. He clenched his fist and controlled his emotions for a moment before he could say the next sentence, "He told me."
"Yedu is now singing and dancing. In previous years, I'm used to those songs and dances, and I don't feel anything." Mu Bi raised her sleeves slightly to cover her face and whispered, "But now that I see him, I have no reason to feel that everything is heavenly and blue!"
Nie Yuansheng also smiled with tears: "I want to go out of the city to worship my grandfather on the pretext of drinking too much at the luncheon... I hurriedly burned some paper money in front of the grave, but I can't rest assured that I want to see you, and now I'm willing to die immediately!"
Mu Biwei immediately put down her sleeves and said angrily, "What did you say that day? If you die, who will he and I will rely on in the future?
"I was wrong." Nie Yuansheng said with a wry smile, "I came in such a hurry that I forgot to change my clothes, but it was inconvenient to hug him."
Mu Bi couldn't help laughing and burst into tears: "This man is really stupid... The clothes you are wearing outside are stained with alcohol, and now it's not cold in this room. Why don't you take off your robe and hug him? The day after tomorrow, my grandmother and sister-in-law will come over. When she returns to the palace, you..."
Before she finished her, Nie Yuansheng couldn't wait to untie his robe and came over. He picked it up clumsily and carefully. Mu Biwei wiped her tears and said, "You are taller and hold it..." After all, Nie Yuansheng held the child for the first time. Although Mu Biwei pointed aside, he made the child cry a few times and waited for him. Holding him again, he was already sweating. Mu Biwei knew that Ashan was guarding outside, and she was not afraid that anyone would bump into him. She took a veil to wipe his sweat. For a moment, she was suddenly surprised and said, "This is the delivery room!"
"Who cares about that much?" Nie Yuansheng looked at the old man with good eyes, whispered slowly, and smiled without raising his head, "What kind of evil have we not done? What can a blood chamber hit? Well, Shen Taijun is coming tomorrow. Ask me to hug him for a while and talk to you more..."
