Those years when I was Princess Yan

Chapter 79 Gui Ning

……

I stopped my feet to reflect, and during the Chinese New Year, the mansion must not be too lively.Counting the little winter melons who are breastfeeding, there are no more than three people for this New Year's Eve dinner.There is no need to arrange a table of dishes specially, just pick up two favorite foods and prepare them, not asking for too much, as long as they are exquisite and delicious.

Put on a pot of green plum wine and put two sprigs of twisted red plums on the side for decoration, which is quite interesting.

"Looking back, this 'cold' situation spread to my father, queen and queen, so I can somehow gain some sympathy. Knowing that we are sincerely repentant, we will not be too angry."

Zhu Di: "If you're being careful, you should act from your heart."

"My lord didn't really make a mistake." Xu Qingqing took another sip of the green plum, and soon her cheeks were stained red.

Zhu Di didn't know how to refute her for a while, so he smiled helplessly, and stretched out his hand to stop Xu Qingqing, not allowing her to drink any more.

"It's Chinese New Year's Eve, the prince doesn't allow this or that, it's losing the fun." Xu Qingqing muttered dissatisfied in a low voice.

"Forgot how drunk you were last time?" Zhu Di asked back.

Xu Qingqing suddenly remembered the last time when she "killed" Zhu Di when she was drunk. It had been too long, if she was not mentioned, she would have forgotten it.In fact, the "work" at that time more or less meant to vent the long-held emotions in the heart with the help of wine.

Seeing Xu Qingqing froze, Zhu Di withdrew his hand.

"Huh? Don't stop it?" Xu Qingqing regained her composure.

"At worst, keep an eye on you." Zhu Di lowered his eyes and picked up a mouthful of food, and put it into his mouth gracefully.

Seeing the shadow of the scholar again in a daze, Xu Qingqing chuckled, "Even if I'm drunk now, I won't be the same as last time."

Today is not the past, she is not as careful and thoughtful as she was when she first married Zhu Di.

Zhu Di seemed to understand Xu Qingqing's words, he just smiled and raised his eyes to glance at him, then put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief.Zhu Di picked up the little wax gourd from the nanny. The little guy was a little excited and reached out to grab the wine glass.

Zhu Di said, "I've been like your mother since I was young, she's an alcoholic."

"Drinking alcohol in moderation can invigorate qi, warm yang, invigorate the kidneys, clear the meridians and activate the collaterals." Xu Qingqing talked to Zhu Di while peeling peanuts, "My dear son wants to drink now, because he must feel that alcohol is courageous. It takes courage to be hugged by your father."

As soon as Xu Qingqing said this, Wan Chun, Bi Luo and the others who were waiting nearby all tightened their mouths, for fear that they would accidentally burst out laughing and offend the two masters.In this world, only the concubine dared to speak like this to tease the prince.

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows, looking at the little wax gourd in his arms

She closed her eyes and fell asleep, and said to Xu Qingqing, "Could it be that you fell asleep because of fear?"

Xu Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and leaned over to see, this child really didn't give her face.She just said that the child is afraid of Zhu Di, and she just wanted Zhu Di to be more gentle and calm when teasing the child, but he fell asleep peacefully at this time, causing her, a mother, to "work hard" It all went down the drain.

"I suspect he is not my own." Xu Qingqing complained casually, causing Zhu Di to send the child directly into her arms, as if to strengthen the relationship between their mother and child.

Coincidentally, as soon as Xu Qingqing hugged the little winter melon, the little winter melon woke up and started crying.

"It really gave me a little face." Xu Qingqing sighed helplessly, and hurriedly patted the back to coax Xiaodonggua.

Everyone in the room couldn't help laughing.

After the meal, the little winter melon was sleepy again, so Xu Qingqing put him gently on the bed and asked the nanny to take care of him.She spread rice paper on the table and ground it for Zhu Di.

After Zhu Di cleaned his hands, he copied a scripture in Qingjun's small script.At Xu Qingqing's suggestion, a jagged branch of red plum was drawn on the edge of the paper.Looking at it this way, this scripture adds a bit of meaning worth watching.

"This is to be framed, and I will present it to the empress tomorrow, and the empress will definitely be happy." Xu Qingqing likes Zhu Di's handwriting very much, even the clean and tidy lower case script, and the outlines are not lacking in style, which shows a sharp momentum.

"Princess, it's snowing outside!" Biluo happily went to open the window when she heard the little girl's return.

Sure enough, there were fine pieces of white snow falling outside the window.

Xu Qingqing was very happy, and ordered someone to bring the cloak quickly.

Zhu Di looked at Xu Qingqing silently.

After Xu Qingqing put on her cloak, seeing Zhu Di staring at herself in a daze, she asked him what was wrong with a smile.

"Are you a demon?" Zhu Dining looked at Xu Qingqing very seriously.

Xu Qingqing froze for a moment, and her tied hands paused slightly.

"If you say sweep snow and make tea, God will snow for you."

Xu Qingqing chuckled, pretending to be afraid and said: "My God, what can I do, my real body was finally discovered by the prince!"

Xu Qingqing fastened the belt, and closed the pockets on Zhu Di's body.

Zhu Di smiled lightly, looked down at Xu Qingqing, and suddenly raised his hand to pinch her face, "If you are really a demon, remember to bring me to your demon world when you leave."

"Don't worry, I'm definitely reluctant to part with the prince." Xu Qingqing kissed Zhu Di on the cheek on tiptoe, and urged him to go out to enjoy the snow.

Zhu Di let Xu Qingqing pull himself, for a moment he was in a daze

, thought he was in a dream.When she started running, she always had a playful smile on her face. The bright red cloak fluttered with the wind, and under the fluttering white snow, she looked like the most beautiful red plum blossom in the world.

……

In the early morning of the first day of the lunar new year, after the filial piety was presented, there was no movement in the palace.In the evening of the next day, a young eunuch in the palace quietly entered through the back door, passing on the emperor's oral order, allowing Xu Qingqing to return to Ning to visit her parents, but King Yan still had to be grounded and not allowed to go out.

Zhu Di handed Xu Qingqing the gift list he had prepared earlier.

Xu Qingqing opened it and saw that there were many valuables such as pearls and emeralds, and there were actually a lot of land.The things on this gift list are almost half of her original betrothal gift.

"It's just a return to my mother's house for the Chinese New Year. The gift prepared by the prince is too expensive."

"I don't know when I will return from this trip to Peiping. Although money is a vulgar thing, it is quite useful. Be prepared."

When she first married Xu Qingqing, the dowry and so on were carried out in accordance with the royal regulations, and there was never more than a penny.At that time, he didn't know that one day he would have such a relationship with Xu Qingqing, but he saw that she would cure his illness, and saw that she knew the current affairs and was easy to control.

Since Zhu Di sincerely gave it away, Xu Qingqing is of course willing to continue.It is also an excellent thing for her to have a good family to rely on.So if my natal family is good, so is she.Besides, with such a gift list, Gui Ning, how much face she has.

"Just take the gift list now, but this gift should be delivered quietly at night. It is not appropriate to make a big show at this time." Xu Qingqing took the initiative to think about it, saving Zhu Di from bothering to ask.

As soon as Xu Qingqing arrived at Duke Wei's mansion, she was stopped by Mrs. Xie and Xu Da, closed the door, and questioned her.

The news about the three princes and Hu Weiyong was banned, but some news came out, and the ministers speculated a lot in private, and even Xu Da didn't know which ones were true and which ones were false.

After Xu Da finally learned the specific and true story, he heaved a sigh of relief, and sighed that King Yan's move was excellent.When this is the case, the emperor's trust in Hu Weiyong can be shaken, but directly suing has no such effect.He is an example. At the beginning, he talked badly with the emperor, but Hu Weiyong led a group of ministers to argue cleverly.In the end, the emperor only felt that he was against Hu Weiyong because of his political disagreement, and he didn't care at all.

"My lord said that you can't act too hastily after this, take your time, it's best to make the other party unaware." Xu Qingqing said.

Xu Da asked Xu Qingqing to send a message to Zhu Di, so that he could rest assured.He knows this matter well, and will discuss it with a few colleagues who are very close to him later,

Figure it out slowly.

"When I go to Peking, I don't need to communicate with Beijing and China frequently, so as not to be impeached and arouse jealousy."

Xu Qingqing agreed and wrote down Xu Da's instructions one by one.

"Let's talk to Qingqing about that too." Mrs. Xie tugged on Xu Da's sleeve.

Xu Da was stunned for a moment, and stared at Mrs. Xie.

Xie Shi: "She's not a fussy child, so what if she says so?"

"What's the matter?" Xu Qingqing asked.

Xu Da immediately apologized and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's all over... When I recognized you as my father, I wasn't sure whether you were our biological daughter. But you really look like your mother. Later I I really have a feeling that it must be, and after two years of careful investigation, I really found out."

"How?" Xu Qingqing became more and more confused.

Xu Da told Xu Qingqing how he had dug up the child's body on the side of the road.

"So Master didn't lie to me, there was indeed another baby wrapped in that quilt?" Xu Qingqing asked in surprise, "Then I—"

"Thanks to Lord Yan's reminder for this matter, otherwise I would really only think who was wrapped in this quilt, and who is my own daughter. I later asked the doctor to examine the child's bones. The feet are flat, which should be hereditary. Yu's parents, but our Xu family and Xie family did not have this situation.

It was only before Chinese New Year that this matter was finally confirmed. The couple were not from the local area, they were very poor. Back then they went to Fengyang relatives to play the autumn wind, but they didn't get much benefit. The more they thought about it, the more desolate they felt. Since you can't support it, you might as well throw it away early.Seeing that the quilt that wrapped you was good, you took it off and wrapped it around your child. On the one hand, you hoped that the child would live longer before being picked up; With the funeral.The child's father is also Flatfoot, so it is true that you are our daughter. "

After Xu Da finished speaking, he felt a little guilty. After all, when he recognized Xu Qingqing back then, he did have some reservations in his heart at first, and he didn't wholeheartedly recognize her as his own daughter.

"If it were me, I would feel otherwise."

After Xu Qingqing thought about it for a while, she told Xu Da and Mrs. Xie not to worry about it, but she wrote down the account first, and she will settle it with Zhu Di when she returns.

Xu Miaoshu's wedding date was set on the sixth day of the lunar new year, and she was about to get married soon.Xu Qingqing went to see her and Mrs. Cai, and asked her if everything was ready for the wedding.

"It's all done." Xu Miaoshu shyly agreed.

I can see that she is big

The marriage is looking forward to, which is reassuring.

"The Mu family is not a picky family. Even if there are one or two minor omissions, it's not too important." Mrs. Cai looked at Xu Qingqing with a smile, and sighed that Xu Qingqing's complexion became better and better after becoming a mother. more beautiful.

"It doesn't necessarily have to do with being a mother. It's been smoother these days than before." The dog man finally recovered from his illness, and the relationship between the two is also smooth, so naturally they are in a good mood and look good.

"So I'm relieved. I was worried that you would get angry because of what happened years ago." When Mrs. Cai said this, she glanced at Xu Huizu and his wife.

The three princes were grounded inexplicably, and it was inevitable that some people would sing bad words and make sarcastic remarks after hearing the news.

"We are all a family, and we should share weal and woe, but if we have to separate out Ding Mao, it's not impossible."

Xu Qingqing didn't show them the face of husband and wife, and said this directly in front of Mrs. Cai, and then handed over the gift list for her return home to Mrs. Xie.

Mrs. Cai's expression turned awkward, and she hurriedly responded to the first half of Xu Qingqing's sentence, but of course she didn't dare touch the second half.

Xie had no intention of telling Xu Qingqing about the trivial matters and intrigues in the family.But since her daughter wanted to give her a face, how could she not cooperate.Immediately agreed to Xu Qingqing, feeling that the gift list was too expensive, and immediately said that she would keep all these treasures and distribute them to the princess' younger brothers and sisters in the future.

Since it is distributed to the younger siblings, naturally there is no role for the elder brother Xu Huizu.Xu Huizu was ashamed on the spot, but he had no choice but to look at his wife resentfully, blaming her for talking nonsense.

Afterwards, the whole family had lunch and gossiped about the family affairs.

After Xu Qingqing returned from Wei Guogong's mansion, she immediately came to the study to look for Zhu Di.

Seeing her furious look, Zhu Di put down his pen and asked, "What's wrong?"

"My lord has plotted against me from the very beginning!" Xu Qingqing gave him a hard look.
