There is a large plum blossom forest with all kinds of plum blossoms, red, white and pink. In the plum blossom forest, the red and white plum blossoms complement each other, and the branches are slanted, high and low, and the postures are pitched and raised, which is so beautiful. What you enjoy is to be in the quiet and elegant plum forest. The delicate fragrance of plum blossom lingers in the spirit, making people feel refreshed physically and mentally.
The emperor admired the plum blossom forest and said with a smile to Eunuch Sun beside him: "They say that the gentle peach blossom forest is extremely beautiful. This plum forest is also a rare beauty. It is much prettier than the one in the Imperial Garden." The varieties of plums in the Imperial Garden are definitely better than those in the Imperial Garden. It's good here. But there are a large number of plum blossoms here, and there are various varieties. Now they are all in bloom, and it is normal for people to be intoxicated.
Eunuch Sun said with a smile: "When the peach blossoms bloom in March, the emperor can enjoy the legendary peach blossom forest that is as beautiful as a fairyland." He also wanted to see how beautiful the princess's peach blossom forest was. The peach blossom forest is famous in the capital.
The emperor looked at the beautiful scenery and said: "This girl has made this place so beautiful without saying a word. The imperial doctor also said that soaking in hot springs is good for your health. You will still have to come here in the winter to relieve your fatigue." Now the emperor's life is not to mention how comfortable it is. In the past, I always felt very tired after handling government affairs. Now I soak in hot springs every day, deal with government affairs for half a day, and go out for a walk. Looking at the beautiful scenery is also a different kind of enjoyment. To use a gentle word, cozy, really cozy. Could it be that the late emperor was able to stay here for a month, and his mind became more relaxed after returning? Life here is really comfortable. It was also because of this that the emperor came up with the idea of ??building a palace here.
After the emperor returned to the palace, he heard that Wen Wan had sent a letter.
The emperor took the letter and read it. At the beginning, he saw Wen Wan angrily accusing him of encroaching on his territory. You don't need to see the person, just read the letter to know that Wen Wan must be jumping up and down with anger. The emperor laughed. He hadn't seen Wen Wan look so angry for many years. He came to the hot spring village because of his gentleness. Wen Wan had repeatedly hoped that the emperor would go to Zhuangzi to soak in the hot springs and relax during the cold season. He also said that staying in the palace all the time is boring and bad for your health. It's nice to go outside and breathe in the breath of nature.
It¡¯s also Wenwan¡¯s nagging for so many years. In addition, Wenwan always looks very good after returning home after staying at Zhuangzi for several months. The emperor felt itchy after seeing it. In the past two years, government affairs have been less busy than before. So I can't help but come over and relax. This is really relaxing. After staying for half a month, the emperor felt relieved all over.
Wen Wan¡¯s letter was quite long, except for the beginning of her accusation that the emperor was unreasonably occupying his territory. The rest is about health care. For example, he told the emperor to take a medicinal bath on Zhuangzi, which is very good for the body. As for what kind of medicated bath to take, you have to find a professional, so she won't comment.
Then he said that if he had time in the morning, he would go hiking. The road in that mountain has been repaired. The road is easy to walk. After climbing the mountain every day, rest for a quarter of an hour before taking a medicinal bath. It will feel particularly refreshing.
Since Wen Wan had a child, she has become a bit nagging. Mingrui directly said that Wen Wan is a nagging mother. The emperor naturally found that Wen Wan was becoming more and more nagging, but Wen Wan was nagging. The emperor still liked it very much.
Wen Wan got a definite reply from the emperor that he intended to build a palace on the hot spring village. From now on, I should go to Zhuangzi to escape the winter every winter.
After Wen Wan read the letter, she smiled quickly. This was just right, and her years of hard work were not in vain. Finally let the emperor know to relax.
Wen Wan has always been worried that the emperor tensed up his nerves to deal with government affairs every day, like a top who didn't know how to rest. This is very harmful to the body. If I go to the hot spring resort every day from now on, it will be equivalent to giving myself two months of vacation every year. Raising people in the hot springs will certainly do a lot of good to the emperor's health.
For Wen Wan, it would be best for the emperor to live a long life.
Lingcheng returned to the East Palace. Wen Wan didn't assign a lot of homework to him. But Ling Chang likes to do the homework assigned by Wen Wan by analogy. This requires a lot of time. Ruyu not only had no objection to this, but was actually very happy. This proves that Wen Wan has corrected her teaching methods (Ling Chang¡¯s homework, Ru Yu didn¡¯t read it).
Lingcheng was busy, and Lingyuan was equally busy. Wen Wan considers the time spent in the study room to be a cheat. Classes start at six in the morning and last until six in the afternoon. Then the teacher will assign a lot of things. There is no leisure at night either.
Lingyuan looked at his younger brother, whom he hadn't seen for two months. He had grown a lot taller and his complexion was rosier. My heart is filled with joy and sorrow. I am happy that my brother is better than before, but I am worried because my aunt told him to read the enlightenment book after hearing what Ling Chang said. It doesn't really teach anything.
Why do you want to study this if you don¡¯t study the Four Books and Five Classics? Do you want to be a storyteller in the future? Or let Lingchen become a reader. Lingyuan was worried about his brother's future.
????????? In the East Palace, Ling Chang still has the closest relationship with Ling Yuan. Although there were some things in the pastShadow. But after such a long time, he was slowly and deliberately forgotten by Ling Chang. Seeing that his brother was worried about him, Ling Chang smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry about me. I'm fine. My aunt said that I won't rely on the imperial examination in the future. I can just think about the Four Books and Five Classics by myself." Ling Chang is still learning from Wen Wan. This enlightenment book. Wen Wan planned to wait until spring before letting Ling Chang study elsewhere.
Lingyuan could only sigh. After telling Ru Yu about this in private, Ru Yu smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry, your aunt's teaching method is weird. Not only does she teach Lingcheng like this, but she also teaches Mingrui and Mingjin." Although she couldn't understand it. But Ruyu believes that Wenwan will never cheat her son no matter how cheated he is. Besides, Ling Chang is not a smart child at all. As long as Lingcheng can be healthy. It would be nice to grow up safely. She doesn't force anything else.
Ruyu touched the child in her belly, hoping that the child would fall to the ground safely. He will be as smart as his elder brother in the future.
Wen Wan is very busy with business and bank affairs. I just breathed a sigh of relief after finishing my work. The embroidery shop sent someone over and said the clothes were cut. Let Xia Yao go over and try it out. If the bride thinks it's okay, she can start embroidering.
Wen Wan originally planned to go with Xia Yao, but Xia Yao refused and went alone. Well, it's not right to say just one person, Wen Wan asked Wu Xing to accompany her.
Xia Ying was speechless: "Princess, I have never heard of a fianc¨¦ accompanying his fianc¨¦e to see her clothes." What does this look like! Not decent at all.
Wen Wan wants to complain. This is how modern people go to try out their wedding clothes as a couple. Xia Yao was not particular at this time, so the others were naturally speechless: "It's okay." Xia Ying has also helped Wen Wan a lot over the years. Wen Wan has never lost her temper with Xia Ying in these years. Although she complained in her heart, she gave Xia Ying enough face.
Afterwards, everyone discovered that Wu Xing, who usually had no expression, now had a smile on his face. There was a joy all over his body.
Wen Wan looked at Xia Yao's melancholy look and asked secretly: "Isn't that wedding dress very beautiful? Wuxing can't take his eyes off it."
Xia Yao said speechlessly: "Princess, I'm trying on clothes inside. It's not impossible for a man to go in. What can I see?" The princess spoke without thinking. It was already embarrassing for Wu Xing to accompany him. He also showed her the wedding clothes. There are no surprises after watching it.
Wen Wan touched her nose. She was despised and was feeling sad. Wenwan was sad and went to find her son to comfort her.
Everything for the New Year is well prepared.
When the firecrackers sounded on New Year's Eve, Wen Wan hugged Mingrui and Mingjin and said cheerfully: "Dabao, Xiaobao. I am one year older. I am four years old this year (virtual age)."
The first month of the year is a time for visiting relatives and friends. On the first day of the new year, as usual, Wen Wan usually brought two small buns to pay New Year greetings to the emperor. Then he coaxed back three red envelopes. But this year the emperor is not in the palace. There is no need for Wen Wan to go to the palace.
Wen Wan, a relative of the Bai family, has no intention of meeting him. This is the princess's mansion. If you want to visit relatives and friends, wait until Bai Shinian comes back!
In the afternoon, the three brothers Mingzhi, Minghuai and Mingguang came over to pay him New Year's greetings. Wen Wan asked Mingrui and Mingjin to come out to pay New Year greetings to their three cousins.
Mingzhi and the other three all prepared red envelopes for two people, which looked thick and heavy. When giving the red envelope, Mingrui glanced at Wenwan.
Mingrui smiled softly before answering. Mingjin has always followed Mingrui, and his brother picked him up as well. Mingjin couldn't sit still after meeting Li. He took Mingrui back to the house.
Wen Wan chatted with Ming Zhi for a few words. They all asked some random questions and answered them clearly. Minghuai and Mingguang were acting as background.
Wen Wan remembers that Mingzhi will have turned three years old in March. In the officialdom, promotions are assessed every three years: "What rank will you probably get in this assessment?"
Mingzhi said cautiously: "If you don't make any mistakes, you can get a good assessment (the performance assessment includes excellent, good, qualified, and poor)." In fact, Mingzhi believes that if there are no mistakes, he should be able to get an excellent, and the worst is a good. He has also worked hard to study in the past few years, and several superior officials praised him. Coupled with his gentle relationship, no one would deliberately discredit him.
Wen Wan thinks it would be good to get a good job: "Do you want to change your job? Or do you want to go down there and practice?" This is what Wen Wan promised before. However, the parties still need to be consulted.
Mingzhi knew that he was not born in a formal imperial examination. It would be very slow to advance through qualifications in the capital, and you would also be looked down upon by those who took the official imperial examination. If you survive for a lifetime, you may only be able to reach the fourth or fifth level. But it will be different when you get down. If you make achievements, you will get promoted quickly. Anyway, if you go down and get enough qualifications and want to come back, there is no problem: "Princess Princess, I want to go down below to experience." Only in the local area can you get in touch with real things. Only then can a person be truly tempered. He had already thought about releasing it.
?Wenwan nodded to show that she understood. There was no direct reply to Mingzhi. This is not cabbage, you can buy it with money. This devolution also depends on whether there are suitable vacancies below.
After the others left, he said to Xia Yao, "Do you think it's feasible?" What he meant was, how about delegating Mingzhi to the local government?
?? Ming Zhi is obviously stronger in ability and popularity than Ping Shang Tang. How could it not be possible?
Speaking of Mingzhi. Maybe it's because he has suffered so much that he doesn't have the arrogance of a son of aristocratic family. Ask colleagues humbly for advice and get along well with everyone around you. In terms of ability, Wen Wan thinks she can score a seventy percent score. But compared to Pingshangtang, it is much higher. It's just that the imperial court has its own employment system. Generally speaking, people who don't pass the imperial examination are difficult to get high positions. I believe Mingzhi knows it himself, so he would rather let it go.
Hearing that Wen Wan did not give an accurate answer, Qing He was a little anxious: "Didn't the princess agree?" That shouldn't be the case, it was clearly agreed before. Why have you changed your mind now?
Seeing her mother's anxious look, Mingzhi hurriedly comforted her: "The princess didn't agree, she just said she would have a look. Mom, I don't know the market situation down there right now. We still have to see if there are any suitable vacancies. If there are no suitable vacancies, , The princess cannot help even if she wants to. "It is impossible for someone to move him to a suitable position. This doesn't show up.
Mingzhi is currently at the seventh rank. If he can really spread his talents, he will definitely be able to find a real seventh rank. Finding real vacancies outside can not only train people, but also provide you with plenty of salary and salary. But Mingzhi has a better mentality than Qinghe. Want to find a good job. It also depends on luck.
Bai Shinian thought Mingzhi's words were reasonable, but there was another question that followed: "You are taking the exam in March. The princess is usually in Zhuangzi at this time. When the time comes" Bai Shihua wanted to say that no one is in Zhuangzi. Don't miss it if you need anything. It has become a rule that Wen Wan is not in the capital at this time of year.
Before Mingzhi could speak, Minghuai on the side smiled and said: "Dad. The princess manages two huge industries, the commercial bank and the bank, but she never shows up. The people below did not complain because the princess did not show up. How dare you have the intention to fool the princess. "Ming Huai means it, Wen Wan is very well-informed, and if he has the intention, it will be fine even if he is thousands of miles away.
Mingzhi agreed with Minghuai's words: "The princess is very well-informed about the capital's news even when she is in the village. Besides, the emperor is also in the hot spring village now!" Mingzhi thinks that it cannot be entirely based on gentleness. You have to do your part first. If it meets the requirements. A position that you are qualified for. It would be better to tell the princess at that time. Anyway, his goal is not high, he just aims at the seventh-grade official who is out there.
I have to say that Mingzhi is very pragmatic. He is not as ambitious as Ping Shang Tang. One bite makes me want to become a big fat man. Officialdom also pays attention to seniority. If you just fly on the plane without hesitation, relying on the backstage, what will other people think? Even if you look good on the outside, you still have various thoughts on the inside. You must know that not only officials, even if the prince wants to go out on errands, he will do it step by step. When the emperor came to power. The late emperor had trained him for several years!
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Ling Yuan brought Ling Chang over to pay Wen Wan New Year greetings.
When Wen Wan saw the two of them, she first gave each of them a big red envelope. Then he smiled and said to Ling Chang: "Have you been lazy these days? If you are lazy, my aunt will reward you with a ruler when you come back." In ancient times, teachers used a ruler to beat their students, and Wen Wan is no exception (but I haven't used it yet) superior).
After two months of getting along with each other, Ling Chang let go of Wen Wan and was not restrained: "It's not over yet, and it will be over in one day."
Lingcheng originally wanted to ask when he could come back. But seeing Ling Yuan on one side, it was not easy to ask. Lingyuan went to study in the study room on the sixth day of the first lunar month. But he hasn't received the news yet that Wen Wan asked him to go to the Princess's Mansion. According to Ling Chang's news yesterday, my aunt will go to the hot spring village after the Chinese New Year. I don¡¯t know if his aunt will take him with him.
Wen Wan stayed with them to eat. When leaving, Wen Wancai said to Ling Chang: "My aunt is going to Zhuangzi after the Lantern Festival. You will go with your aunt then. Tell your mother and concubine and ask her to prepare some supplies for you."
After hearing Wen Wan¡¯s words, Ling Chang couldn¡¯t stop the smile on his face. He was still worried at first, not knowing whether his aunt would take him there. I didn't expect to take him with me. Soaking in the hot springs is the second most important thing. The most important thing is that I can go with my aunt and the others.
Ling Yuan felt envious when he saw Ling Chang with a smile on his face. In fact, he also wanted to go to Zhuangzi. Not only can you go there for vacation, Grandpa Huang is also there. But Lingcheng saw Wenwan and stopped the topic. I can only regret that I have no intention of taking him there.
When going back. Ling Chang's face was filled with a smile.
Lingyuan saw his brother's happy expression. Thinking about the long-rumored peach blossom forest and Grandpa Huang. Lingyuan felt that his younger brother was really stupid.There is stupid blessing. But Ling Yuan is not that stingy person. On the way, I told Ling Chang a lot about the emperor. Ling Yuan also didn't hope that Ling Chang would be liked by Grandpa Huang. I just hope Ling Chang doesn¡¯t violate any taboos.
Ru Yu knew that Wen Wan was going to take Ling Chang to Zhuangzi, and the emperor happened to be in Zhuangzi now. It would also be a happy event if Ling Chang could also gain the emperor's favor.
Lingcheng heard his mother and brother telling him to win the emperor's favor. His face looked a little unnatural. He stopped talking again. The last time his aunt came to the palace, she took him with her. Grandpa Huang's attitude towards him was neither cold nor hot. When his aunt went back, he comforted him and said that Grandpa Huang was like this. Ling Chang stammered: "Last time my aunt took me, Mingrui and Mingjin to the palace to meet Grandpa Huang, Grandpa Huang didn't even talk to me. "Grandpa Huang only likes brother Mingjin and doesn't talk to me or brother Mingrui." After speaking, he lowered his head. In fact, Lingcheng was not sad at that time. Compared to the last time I saw Grandpa Huang and was ignored outright, it was much better that time when I went to the palace. In addition, Grandpa Huang's attitude towards brother Mingrui is lukewarm. Grandpa Huang only likes brother Mingjin. However, Ling Chang looked at the faces of the two people and roughly understood why Grandpa Huang liked Mingjin. I don¡¯t like him and Mingrui anymore (you won¡¯t feel lonely if you have a companion). Mingrui didn't show much concern at that time. Lingcheng thought that Mingrui was so graceful, and as an elder brother, he couldn't be jealous of his younger brother. How could he be inferior to Mingrui!
Ruyu just felt a little regretful. The emperor loved Mingjin more than he loved Wenwan before. However, the emperor was relatively indifferent to Ming Rui. Everyone attributed it to the fact that the emperor liked Ming Jin because Ming Jin's face resembled the emperor's (Ming Rui said: My uncle also likes me). Things like appearance only depend on God's will. You can't force it.
On the fifth day of the first lunar month, Wen Wan took her two children to Prince Hao's Mansion. Happy New Year to Prince Hao. The two children naturally received two big red envelopes.
Prince Hao likes Mingjin the most. This kid's mouth is as sweet as honey. After finishing, Prince Hao sighed: "Wen Wan, how did you raise a kid like you?"
Mingjin hugged Prince Hao¡¯s neck and said in a sweet voice, ¡°My mother raised me and my brother with rice soup.¡±
Mingrui wanted to roll his eyes.
Prince Hao was even more happy when he saw Mingrui's actions. He turned back and tapped Mingjin's nose: "I see, your mother brewed it in a honey pot."
It¡¯s a pleasure to be in Prince Hao¡¯s Mansion. Wen Wan had lunch in the palace. Because Prince Hao and Wen Wan are two generations apart. There are no taboos between men and women. Wen Wan dined directly with Prince Hao. Naturally, the first-class seats were used.
Mingrui looked normal when he was eating. But Mingjin had a sad face. It's not that the food isn't delicious, it's that half of the dishes on the table are not to Mingjin's liking.
Wen Wan glanced at Mingjin. Before going out, Wen Wan told Mingjin the rules to follow when visiting outside. Otherwise, you will be punished if you go back. Mingjin got a gentle manhole cover and hurriedly lowered her head and ate honestly. I don¡¯t dare to show my dissatisfaction anymore.
Prince Hao asked with a smile: "Mingjin, is it true that the food here is not delicious?"
Mingjin quickly shook his head: "No, it's delicious, even better than what I have at home."
Look at the look on his face. It would be strange if he thought the food was better than at home. However, Prince Hao was a little surprised when he saw Mingjin's demeanor. Prince Hao smiled and glanced at Wen Wan. He originally thought that Wen Wan would be more doting on his children and be obedient to them (this is the norm), but he didn't expect that Wen Wan would be quite strict with his children. One look made Mingjin surrender.
Finished meal. Before Wen Wan left, Prince Hao asked her: "Wen Wan, when do you plan to go to Zhuangzi? I will go tomorrow. If you also go in these two days, I can be two days later." Prince Hao accompanied the emperor in the twelfth lunar month. Go to Zhuangzi. But I will be back during the Chinese New Year. Things here are over and over again.
Nowadays, beside the emperor's gentleness, Prince Hao is the one whom the emperor relies on the most. The two have been in love since childhood, and Prince Hao had helped the emperor a lot in the past. Prince Hao also helped when the emperor seized the throne (of course not as much as Wen Wan).
Wen Wan smiled and shook her head: "I still have some things to deal with, and I won't be able to go to Zhuangzi in the next few days. I guess I can't go until the first month of the year." I still need to explain the matters between the trading company and the bank. There are other miscellaneous things. It¡¯s all miscellaneous and will take several days of work.
When we went back, Wen Wan saw that Mingrui and Mingjin had brought back a lot of things. Let the people below take it. Register the two of them in a book: "Son, from now on this will be your private money." Not only women want private money, but men also need private money.
Mingrui sweated violently. He and his brother are only three years old, right? Three years old (in the eyes of outsiders, they are actually four years old, but Wen Wan calls them three years old, so Mingrui and Mingjin also consider themselves three years old. It may be mentioned below The child is four years old, it¡¯s not a clerical error, it¡¯s a different algorithm)!
Wenwan returned to the house and said that a visitor was waiting for her. Wen Wan was a little surprised when she heard that the person coming was Su Xian. Su Xianke had never taken the initiative to go to her mansion. The so-called no matter what, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall. I guess something happened this time.
Every time Su Xian sees Mingrui and Mingjin, they wear the same clothes. Now the two children are also wearing the same color black brocade clothes. He is also wearing a large mink fur coat of the same color and style.
The two children bowed politely. Su Xian also gave a big red envelope. So being a child is good. There are red envelopes to receive during the Chinese New Year.
Su Xian didn¡¯t talk in circles with Wen Wan, and explained his purpose in just a few sentences. That is to say, his father. Mr. Su has not seen Wen Wan for so long and misses Wen Wan strangely: "Princess, the old man is still talking about Mingrui and Mingjin, saying that he has never seen the two children at such a big age. Princess, the old man's body and bones are I am getting worse and worse, and I got seriously ill some time ago. "The transition between autumn and winter is the most difficult time for the elderly. Su Xiang almost didn't survive a serious illness. Wen Wan didn't know about this because she had always been indifferent to Su Mansion because of some previous incidents. In the past few years, we have maintained a superficial relationship. The people below would not talk to her about this.
That¡¯s all. If Wen Wan doesn't go again. But it's so impersonal. The promise was given immediately. I'll go see the old prime minister tomorrow.
Su Xian saw that the mission was completed and hurriedly withdrew. Su Xian was a person who often met saints. When he saw Wen Wan's face, which was similar to that of an emperor, he always felt terrified.
Xia Yao thinks that the Su family is a weasel paying New Year greetings to a chicken, and she has no good intentions.
Wen Wan sweated: "Xia Yao, I haven't offended you recently, have I? Do you have to use it to hurt me like this?" She was described as if she was a chicken (because Su Xian came to pay New Year's greetings).
Xia Yao listened to Wen Wan's words. Only then did I realize that this common saying was used incorrectly. He coughed to cover it up: "Princess, what does the Su family mean? I don't think that old fox would care about the princess and the two young masters so much." People who become prime ministers will be kind people. It¡¯s just that Su Xiang is good at hiding himself and knows what¡¯s interesting. The rapids retreated bravely.
Xia Yao is worried that Wen Wan is being taken advantage of again. Think about it, if Ping Shangtang had not married Su Zhenzhen, there would have been so many bad things. If Ping Shangtang marries a girl from another family, the princess will not be so lenient about it. And it was Su Hu who caused all this, and it was Su Hu who dumped this big burden on the princess. The princess has been carrying it for so many years, and she still has to carry it on. The princess has a soft heart and is easily fooled. But the old fox schemer doesn't leave any bones or dregs behind. Therefore, Xia Yao was also on guard against Su Hu.
Wen Wan is speechless. Why is she so calculating in Xia Yao's eyes? As for what Xia Yao said about that year. What happened back then cannot be completely blamed on Su Xiang. Su Xiang wanted to find a peaceful place for his granddaughter. He also didn't expect that Ping Shangtang would be a white-eyed wolf. If not. He will not marry his granddaughter.
¡°As for how good Su is relative to Wen Wan, Wen Wan doesn¡¯t think so. She and the Prime Minister were originally tied together because of their interests. As they had more contacts, their relationship with the Prime Minister became more and more harmonious. However, several incidents later made Wen Wan bored, and her relationship with the Prime Minister became estranged.
Mrs. Su was a little too much, and Wen Wan didn't care much. What Wen Wan cared about was Su Xiang's attitude, but Su Xiang didn't give any expression in this regard. Has been silent. Wen Wan didn't believe that Su Xiang knew nothing about this.
Wen Wan guessed at that time that Su Xiang probably thought that she had climbed too high and thought that she would be cooked by a cunning rabbit and lackey in the future. Because the emperor's uncle's temperament makes it difficult for him to tolerate her. When she falls, she won't be involved in the Prime Minister's Mansion (after the emperor came to power, he also poisoned several ministers who supported him in the throne. It's normal for Su Xiang to suspect that the emperor would attack Wen Wan). But the facts made Su Xiang miscalculate. The emperor's uncle has always been fond of Wen Wan.
This time Su Hu asked Su Xian to come over. Wen Wan always felt that something might be wrong. After thinking for a moment, Xia Ying came in: "Is Su Xiang's health really that bad?"
Xia Ying nodded: "Well, I almost didn't make it last time. The imperial doctor optimistically estimated that it would still be three to five years. Unoptimistically, it would only be one or two years. Su Xian came to the princess, and it must have been Prime Minister Su's idea. The county You should remember that Su Yang is the third prince who has taken refuge. I think Su Hu doesn't think highly of the third prince. This time, Prime Minister Su probably wants to ask the princess to take care of him if something happens to the Su family. "Guan Su Yang. You did a good job and have been promoted to a level. It¡¯s okay if you don¡¯t stand in line. But if you stand in line, the mark will be there forever. When the third prince does not take the throne in the future, Su Yang's career will be over. It would be better if the new emperor could be tolerant. Su Yang will stay at home at most. If you can't accommodate people. The Su family may be doomed.
Wen Wan shook her head: "It should be more than that. By the way, how about Su Yang's two sons? Are they just playboys who can't bear the responsibility?" Wen Wan thinks it shouldn't be the case. You must know that girls from the Hai family are generally not ordinary people.
Su Yang has five sons and two legitimate sons. The two sons Wen Wan mentioned were these two legitimate sons. In this era, there areThis characteristic is that the eldest daughter-in-law will not follow her husband into office, but will take care of the house at home. Haishi took care of the old and the young in the capital, and kept the mansion in order. Wen Wan feels that women born in the Hai family are not simple. You know, in addition to these, Heide also has to deal with a top-notch Madam Su! This is the most troublesome thing. But Mrs. Su allowed Hei Shi to coax her into submission. Such a woman can't raise a useless son!
Xia Ying shook his head: "No. Su Hang and Su Yi started school at the age of three. They are both diligent and studious children, and their husbands praised them a lot. Su Hang is also planning to go to the library next year, and according to the information we got, there should be no problem." If a scholar is a problem, he will not be praised by his husband.
Nodding gently. There is no problem with the great-grandson, but the problem lies with Su Yang. Taking sides, this is the threshold between going to heaven and hell, and the risk is very high: "I remember that Ping Shangtang also took refuge in the third prince. Is the third prince so popular?" It really can't be done without two brushes.
??
?Muttered Wenwan. one third. so many.
When Haishi heard that Wen Wan promised to come tomorrow, he immediately ordered him to go down and prepare all the expenses for tomorrow. Wenwan hasn't visited her in four years. It is important to repair the relationship this time. Haishi is not Mrs. Su, who dares to take big money. Even her cousin the Crown Princess is polite to Wen Wan. If they, as courtiers, dare to take the big shot, they will be unhappy.
Mrs. Su felt unhappy when she heard that Wen Wan was coming to visit the next day. Over the years, no one has been polite to her. Only Wen Wan repeatedly refused to give her face.
Haishi felt very depressed. Why did I meet this mother-in-law who couldn't figure it out: "Mother-in-law, last time my aunt wrote a letter saying that Brother Fu's matter was thanks to the princess. If the princess hadn't sent someone to protect him secretly, Brother Fu wouldn't have come back so easily. "
Mrs. Su was even more unhappy after hearing this: "If she really sent someone to protect her, she shouldn't have sent the child back on the same day. Why did it take more than half a month to send Brother Fu back? It almost killed Zhenzhen." Mrs. Su was very suspicious that Wen Wan's statement that Brother Fu was saved by her was false. Otherwise, she really couldn't figure out why she didn't send the person back on the spot. It will take more than half a month to send it back.
Haishi said that since the princess said she sent someone to protect her, it must be so. The princess doesn't need to tell such a lie, it's completely unnecessary. After soothing her for a long time, Mrs. Su still didn't look good.
After Haishi returned to his room, he felt a little exhausted both physically and mentally. Without her husband by her side, the family, old and young, all rely on themselves to manage things. Then there is the mother-in-law who is irrational when facing the gentle princess (Mrs. Su is still very rational to the outside world). Haishi feels really tired!
The maid next to her was very distressed and gave Haishi a squeeze. Seeing that Haishi's expression was relaxed, he also asked the question in his heart: "Madam, since the princess sent someone to protect Master Fu, why does it take another month to send him back. The old lady's doubts about this are not unreasonable."
Heidegger smiled bitterly: "It's probably to make my aunt have a long memory." This is just Heidegger's speculation. If you know Zhenzhen's temper, even she can only sigh that her life is good. So other than this reason, I still can¡¯t think of any other reason.
Wen Wan took Mingrui and Mingjin to the Prime Minister's Mansion the next day. When Wen Wan saw Su Xiang, she was in a trance. Su Xiang wore a sky-blue brocade robe with a thick cloak over it. The face is full of wrinkles, and the deep folds look a bit scary. People are also very rickets. They say that people get shorter as they get older. This is true. Not only that. Su Xiang's face didn't look good either, and his whole person exuded a lingering aura of twilight.
Looking at Su Xiang, Wen Wan felt that Su Xiang was really old. Everyone grows old and passes away. No one can stop this pace. Wen Wan felt a little sad and called softly: "Uncle." Although the relationship is not deep, he is still the elder. Seeing this, it's hard not to be moved.
Mingjin was a little scared when he saw such a depressed Su Xiang. Shrinking towards Mingrui, Mingrui felt Mingjin's fear. He held Mingjin's hand tightly.
Wen Wan didn¡¯t feel the small movements of the two children. Su Xiang felt it. I saw children wearing the same royal blue brocade clothes holding hands. Su Xiang felt a little emotional, after all, he was a direct brother. People who know how to love each other remember that his relationship with Queen Mother Shengyuan back then was always more than polite and not affectionate enough. Otherwise, when the emperor asked Queen Mother Shengyuan what happened when she was young, she would not be able to say clearly: "The two children are really energetic" Before she could finish her words, she coughed. It took a while to stop coughing.
The two children came forward to greet them.
Su Xiang gave the two children red envelopes and coughed again. When you cough, it seems like you want to cough up your heart and lungs. It makes the people listening feel particularly uncomfortable. Mingjin was even more frightened when he saw Su Xiang like this. Mingjin has never seen anything like this before.??
Seeing the fear on Mingjin's face, Su Xiang shook his head and said, "You are no longer useful when you are old. Let the children go down. You don't want to scare the two children." His body was getting worse and worse. Used. I don¡¯t know how many more years it will last.
Wen Wan also saw Mingjin¡¯s fear and felt worried. Don't call her selfish. Compared with her son, she has no time to care about Su Xiang's feelings. So if Su Xiang really knew how to win, Xia Yao would be able to take Mingrui and Mingjin out by the stairs. Anyway, it was her that Su Xiang was looking for, and the child was just along the way.
Su Xiang chatted with Wen Wan for a few words, and the people below brought the medicine. If it were the emperor or the emperor's grandfather, Wen Wan would definitely take the medicine and feed it. But Su Xiang, forget it.
Su Xiang took medicine, maybe it was a psychological effect. The cough is gone too. My spirit is also better. Feeling better. Looking at Wen Wan standing there, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Today Wen Wan is wearing a water-red palace dress with clouds and phoenix patterns. A peony hairpin is inserted diagonally between the bun. Not to mention appearance, what attracted Su Xiang's attention was Wen Wan's whole person and spirit.
Su Xiang chatted with Wen Wan about some topics. The conversation at first was about the imperial court, but Wen Wan was not interested in this and avoided it. If we don¡¯t talk about government affairs, we just talk about home affairs. What Wen Wan likes to talk about is children. Naturally. We also talked about Fu Geer¡¯s disappearance for more than half a month.
Wen Wan didn¡¯t explain to Su Zhenzhen why Brother Fu was delayed for more than half a month. Wen Wan had nothing to hide from Su Xiang: "I had Brother Fu imprisoned and made him suffer some pains. I hope that through this incident, Brother Fu will know that the outside world is not as beautiful as he imagined. "It's very dark outside. It's very dangerous. Let him remember the lesson this time. It will be good for him in the future." Of course, Wen Wan is also worried that it will be bad if Brother Fu can't get out of this shadow. Therefore, the mother in charge of Brother Fu should take more care of him. If Brother Fu can remember this and make progress, it will not be a loss for her hard work.
After Su Xiang heard this, his turbid eyes flashed with a compelling light: "If it were Mingrui or Mingjin, Wen Wan, would you let it go?" Brother Fu is a nephew, and he is still a nephew separated by several generations of blood. Wen Wan can do it. But can his own son accept it? Su Xiang asked that this sentence had another meaning. Not blaming Wenwan.
Wen Wan chuckled and said: "Although I want to say that I am willing to give up for the sake of the child. But if I encounter such a situation, I can't say for sure. If the child cries uncomfortable or something else, I may not be able to let go. So I have not encountered such a situation. , I can¡¯t guarantee it either.¡± Wen Wan¡¯s words were a bit perfunctory. If it is really good for Mingrui and Mingjin, as long as it is for the good of their children, Wen Wan has nothing to be reluctant to part with. Even if she can't do it. At most, you can close your eyes and not listen, and let the people below do it.
Su Xiang was a little surprised when he heard Wen Wan say this. He thought Wen Wan would say that he would be willing to give up. Su Xiang's eyes were sharp. Her expression was completely different from the one she had just worn. "Wen Wan, I heard that you have already asked Mingrui to learn martial arts? Are you too hasty to let a child who is only four years old learn martial arts?" If you want your son to become a genius, this method It's too much. Su Xiang doesn't think Wen Wan is such a person.
Wen Wan was also helpless about this: "I didn't ask him to learn this. I also hope he doesn't want to learn it, but unfortunately there is no way, Mingrui is a martial arts idiot." If Wen Wan hadn't used strong methods, Mingrui probably would have I hope I can practice Qigong all day long.
A look of extreme responsibility flashed in Su Xiang's eyes: "Wenwan, Bai Shinian is blessed." Bai Shinian started his career with military exploits, and Mingrui will definitely inherit Bai Shinian's mantle. It is the greatest blessing to have someone succeed Bai Shinian. It's a pity that he has no successor. Su Xian and Su Yang can only maintain their status. And Su Hang. Su Xiang sighed slightly. I don¡¯t know what Su Yi is like.
Wen Wan was very depressed after hearing this: "Uncle, Bai Shinian is blessed. It's a pity that my Mingrui and Mingjin have not met their father yet!" This is what Wen Wan feels most guilty about her children. A piece of love is missing. Wenwan thinks that the right child is incomplete.
Su Xiang smiled softly: "Don't worry, we will see you soon. It should not take a few years for Bai Shinian to come back." Judging from the situation at that time, within five years, the imperial court would have a big war against the Manchus. Bai Shinian will naturally come back by then.
Wen Wan chatted with Su Xiang for a long time. Su Xiang felt a little depressed and fell asleep. After meeting Su Xiang, you can¡¯t just leave! I also met Mrs. Su in the backyard.
Although Mrs. Su is very resentful of Wen Wan, she can still show her kindness. Children are very perceptive. Mingjin immediately noticed Mrs. Su's displeasure with him and followed the rules. Follow Mingrui and follow Mingrui's movements meticulously.
How could Wen Wan not notice what Mingjin had noticed. After saying a few words with a smile, he went back on the grounds that he was busy at home. Didn't have lunch at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Heidegger repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, but he couldn't.
After getting on the carriage, Mingjin muttered:He said with his mouth: "Mom, we won't come here anymore. It's not good here." He didn't like it here very much. Never want to come again.
Wenwan brings Mingrui and Mingjin to her side. He smiled and said: "Silly boy, you can't just stop interacting with each other just because you're not good. There are thousands of people in this world, and not all of them can like you. Some people like you, and naturally some people hate you. You can't just stop seeing others just because they hate you. Then How."
Mingjin is thinking carefully about Wen Wan's words.
Mingrui looked up at Wen Wan and said, "Mom, they don't like us. Then why should we move forward? Mom, if you can't go in the future, it's better not to go." The old woman had such a bad attitude towards them, why did they Make do with her. The more some people give in to them, the more they get into trouble. So, ignore it if you can.
Nodding gently: "Okay, listen to my baby."
Mingrui smiled again after receiving the guarantee. Wen Wan pinched her son's little face and said, "That's right. Just smile more. Don't always act like a little old man."
Mingrui glared at Wen Wan, wondering why the mother-in-law said her son was a little old man. His mother is really too much. Seeing Mingrui's angry look, Wen Wan burst into laughter.
Back at the mansion, Xia Yao asked Wen Wan if she had promised anything to Su Hu, an old fox. She walked away at that time, so she was always worried about what Wen Wan would say indiscriminately. Su Zhenzhen is already giving people a headache, but don't get involved with the Su family.
Wen Wan said with a smile: "What do you think Mr. Su will ask me to promise? Let me promise to take care of the Su family? Do you think it is possible?" The relationship between Su Wenwan and the Prime Minister's Mansion came together because of interests, and they broke up without much harmony. . Why do you want her to take care of the Su family? Her maternal grandmother is the daughter of the Su family. This reason makes people laugh out loud. Since Hu can achieve the position of prime minister, how could he say such superficial words. Therefore, Wen Wan was not worried that Su Hu would bring up such nonsense.
It¡¯s fine if you don¡¯t. Xia Yao was really scared by Su Zhenzhen's incident. You know, the princess will definitely have to take care of the marriage of her four children. Xia Yao felt dizzy just thinking about it. Xia Yao was not willing to bear the burden of the Su family again. When she got angry, she ordered no one from the Su family to come to the door.
