Concubine Raiders Chapter 232: Life and Death (Part 1)
Chapter 232 Life and Death (Part I)
The royal banquet is radiant, and the fireworks in the night sky are gorgeous. As a participant, Eleven Niang only hopes that all this will end soon-she can neither become the center of the people's service like the emperor and the queen, nor can she receive special favors like Mrs. Tai, standing in the cold wind. It was a sad thing to watch the fireworks while hungry, not to mention the three brothers Xu Siqin who were still at home in my heart.
At the beginning of Xu's time, the emperor and the queen returned to the inner court to rest before everyone could leave. On the road, there were lots of people, and it took half an hour to return home after a detour. Madam Tai and Shi Niang fell apart as uncomfortable, only Xu Lingyi was still full of energy and energy.
Amber followed the third master and the third wife to greet the eleven mothers, and immediately greeted her. While helping her, she whispered in a low voice: "Madam, don't worry, the three young masters have rested in the wife's room. "
Eleven Niang took a long sigh, cheered up and escorted the wife back to the house, went to see the three of them with her own eyes, and then relaxed and went back to the house with Xu Lingyi.
She immediately told him that the imperial concubine was reprimanded and met Madam Ren Kun, Jiang Jinkui.
As for Jiang Jinkui, Xu Lingyi smiled and said: "There is no way. Everyone is intricate, and there will always be times. Just not humble or overbearing." As for the imperial concubine being reprimanded, he smiled, "This matter I have also heard about it. It seems that the emperor is suggesting those imperial histories. However, the lights are closed on the 17th of the first month. The emperor should not have expressed his position before. Even if something is going on, it will be three days later."
Eleven Niang nodded, made the bed and Xu Lingyi rested.
I went to Mrs. Tai early the next morning and met Xu Siqin and Xu Siyu who had come to treat her to her. They laughed and said that they wanted to pretend to be young men and go out to watch the lights: "...I'm afraid of you. Not obedient. I didn't expect it to be a gentleman who kept promises. I really stayed at home yesterday." He didn't say that this was Xu Siyu's idea.
Mrs. Tai was startled.
Xu Siqin's face was flushed red: "It turned out that we were wrong. The fourth aunt made me feel ashamed."
Xu Siyu just smiled faintly.
Another third wife brought Xu Sijian to greet Mrs. Tai. Mrs. Tai suppressed her confusion. When the third wife was gone, she beat up some children to play in Brother's house. Then she asked the eleven mother: "... …Why don’t you come to discuss with me on such a big matter?"
Eleven mothers said the cause and effect: "...because they agreed to the children, if you go back, you will be discouraged. If you don't agree, you will be a little harsh." Then he told Mrs. Tai about the arrangements at the time.
She chose this time to say that it was intentional.
The Lantern Festival will not turn on until the 17th of the first lunar month, and there are two days before the end of the Lantern Festival. If Xu Siqin really gave up this plan, then she would take her remarks to Mrs. Tai and let her old man laugh. But if Xu Siqin and the others did not give up on this plan, the last two days would be the best chance. Once the people staring at them see that they have been honest, they will inevitably relax; second, the time limit agreed by everyone is the Lantern Festival, and there is no Arrange a specific date, if they go out, it is not a breach of promise. On the contrary, Eleven Niang also took advantage of this. Find a way to keep the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and then tell the matter. Firstly, she did not violate her promise to the children. Secondly, Mrs. Tai would feel that she did not follow the children when she heard it. Thirdly, she told her about it. After all, she could shirk any mistakes.
Mrs. Tai nodded slightly.
Eleven Niang is a newcomer after all, and there are certain things that cannot be done too much. This is just right. It takes care of the children's face without indulging them. The eleven mother was so careful that she was relieved.
"If you know your mistakes, you can make corrections. It's a good thing." She thought about it, and decided to praise Eleven Niang, "Since they want to go out and play..." she told Mama Du, "Go and call Mr. Bai to come in and let him send People served the three young masters to go out and visit the Lantern Market."
This result surprised Eleven Niang, and she hurriedly ordered Amber to tell Xu Siqin and others the news.
The children who got the news all ran out, thanking me, laughing and jumping, laughing and jumping, and brother Chen rolled into the arms of the wife: "I want to go, I want to go too!"
Xu Sijie pulled Shi Niang's dress and stood aside giggling.
Anyone can go, only Brother Jian, and Mrs. Tendai will not agree.
Eleven Niang thoughtfully hugged Xu Sijie, and Mrs. Tai's firm voice came from her ear: "You stay at home and stay with your mother and fifth brother."
Brother Jian pouted disappointedly, and looked straight at Eleven Niang, but did not dare to refute.
Eleven mothers just pretended not to see.
As soon as he lowered his head, the corner of his eyes saw the ridicule passing by Xu Siyu's mouth.
Xu Lingyi, who knew Mrs. Madam’s decision, did not object. After thinking for a while, he only asked Mr. Bai to send additional staff and proceed with caution. San Ye also nodded slightly: "Boys, it is better to travel thousands of miles to read thousands of books. You should go out more."
The third wife was very worried and her face turned pale: "It's messy outside. What if you bump into something? I think it’s better to stay at home. Let Uncle Wu buy the fireworks. It’s not the same if you put it at home."
After hearing this, Xu Lingkuan volunteered to accompany them: "With me, don't worry!"
In this way, the words of the third wife were naturally ignored. Xu Lingkuan accompanied Xu Siqin, Xu Siyu, and Xu Sijian to the street to watch the lights. Brother Chen and Xu Sijie followed the eleven mother to make glutinous rice **** at home.
Xu Sijie was very happy. He kneaded the glutinous rice **** into various kinds, made one after another, and couldn't stop it.
Brother Jian kept pouting his mouth unhappy.
Eleven Niang enlightened him: "Brother Jian said, he grew up this way, and it was the first time he went to the street to watch fireworks. When you were your age, I couldn't even think about it—because he had never done this before. You are different. The eldest brother, the second brother and the third brother have all been out shopping. There is a precedent. When you reach their age, you can also go out."
Brother Jian listened to his eyes lit up: "Yes, yes!" Then he happily went to make dumplings with Xu Sijie.
"You made a mistake. The glutinous rice **** are round!" He tried to correct Xu Sijie.
Xu Sijie ignored him, and did whatever he wanted.
Children should have profligate thinking. If Xu Siyu said this, Eleven Niang might ask "Whoever said that the tangyuan must be round", but the one who asked this was Brother Chen. He wants to If you are a prince, you'd rather go too far than tricky.
Eleven Niang smiled and touched Xu Sijie's head: "He is ignorant, so he has to teach it slowly."
The corners of his mouth curled slightly when Brother Jian saw her speak for himself, and nodded heavily.
In the afternoon, they were cooking glutinous rice **** in the small kitchen of Shiyiniang. The three aunts Shiniang did not reluctantly, but everyone in their house had a share.
Aunt Wen was still clever, smelling the fragrance and moving, brought the maid in her room to ask for glutinous rice balls. He also said: "If the eldest lady was here, how lively it would be."
Eleven Niang immediately said: "Mrs. Tai has instructed Manager Bai to send someone to pick Sister Zhen back tomorrow morning."
Brother Chen cheered upon hearing this.
Aunt Qin brought the maid over: "I heard that there are glutinous rice **** to eat."
Eleven mothers don't care, let Lvyun give Aunt Qin zizi and glutinous rice balls.
Everyone laughed, and there was no movement in Qiaolian's room.
In the evening Xu Lingyi returned from King Shun, holding a sweet white porcelain tea cup filled with Tieguanyin, leaning tiredly on the big ying pillow and let out a lazy breath: "Finally the new year is over."
Eleven Niang covered her mouth and smiled and served him to bed.
As a result, the news was heard the next afternoon—the emperor had removed Xu Lingyi from the post of chief governor of the five-army governor’s house.
At that time, the third lady was counting the New Year's relationship with the lady, the eleven mother was sitting by and listening, and the fifth lady was gnawing the apple.
"...Fourth brother is handing over with that Jiang Feiyun!" Xu Lingkuan, who came to report, looked a little depressed.
Mrs. Tai made no sound, picked up the tea cup and took a sip in silence.
"So fast." The Fifth Lady looked shocked, with half of the apple in her mouth, "Did the Guards follow me?"
"That's not enough." Xu Lingyi said unhappily.
"What is the crime?" The third lady asked carefully.
Xu Lingkuan said nothing.
The fifth lady hurriedly swallowed the apple: "Naturally, it is a'bad character'. If that's the enemy in front of the battle, the guards would have stood by and waited for someone to be sent to prison." Looking at the eleven mother.
Eleven Niang groaned: "I only said that I was exempted from the post of chief governor of the Five Army Capital Governor's House. How about the post of the Prince Young Master? Has it ever been removed?"
Xu Lingkuan showed a face of enlightenment, refreshed, and said: "No, no. Only the post of Chief Superintendent of the Five Army Capital Governor's House was relieved. Nothing else was moved."
Eleven Mother wanted to go to the palace to watch fireworks during the Lantern Festival, but the royal concubine Qu was not invited...
She felt that Xu Lingyi's strategy had worked-the emperor's heart was biased towards Xu's family.
But this is a guess after all. In the end, I still have to see Xu Lingyi to ask clearly before I'm sure.
Thinking like this in her heart, a smile filled her eyes unconsciously: "Master Hou was about to resign from the post of Chief Superintendent of the Five Army Capital Governor's Mansion. Now it's just what he wanted. Five masters don't have to be a Hou. Lord is worried."
Mrs. Tai slightly jawed.
Life ups and downs, it's good for Eleven Niang to think like this.
The fifth lady also breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good." Lord Hou was still young, and the emperor didn't have a stick to kill him, so there will always be a chance in the future. "Just take advantage of this opportunity to take a good rest at home." She said cunningly.
The third lady looked at the crowd and stopped talking. Then he took advantage of the opportunity of Sanye to go back to his house to change clothes in the afternoon and said to her husband: "Will our affairs be repeated?"
"Don't worry!" San Ye comforted the third lady, "The emperor does not read Hou Ye, but always read the Queen Empress!"
"I hope so!" The third lady murmured, and Qiu Ling came in and said: "Madam, the eldest lady has already returned home."
"Hurry up!" The third master urged the third wife, "We will stay at home for two or three months at most, so as not to make the wife upset before leaving."
The third wife hurriedly tied the tape to help the third master, and the two went to the wife.
As soon as they entered the hall, they heard a burst of cheerful laughter from the inner room~IndoMTL.com~ When they entered the room, they saw the large and small paper boxes piled up on the large Kang by the window. Xu Lingkuan, November The mother, the fifth wife, and Xu Siqin's brothers all sat in front of the lady's kang, smiling at the sister Zhen who was nestling next to the lady-she was wearing a lake-colored coat and was talking about something with a smile on her face.
Seeing them coming in, Sister Zhen hurriedly greeted: "San Uncle, San Aunt."
San Ye laughed, and came forward to salute Mrs. Tai. Before he could speak, a young man ran in and said, "Master Hou is back!"
Everyone was startled.
The curtain has been opened with a "swish" and Xu Lingyi strode in.
When everyone saw his face sinking like water, they all felt "cock". Mrs. Tai was even anxious to move to the edge of the kang, and said: "Fourth, what happened?"
Xu Lingyi's gaze swept away and fell on the face of Eleven Niang.
"Eleven Mother," his voice was low, with a few faint worries, "Wang Lang is dead!"
