green bamboo dream

The weather is getting colder, and the trees on both sides of the street are all withered and yellow leaves. When a gust of autumn wind blows, the crumpled yellow leaves will spin away from the branches and fall to the vegetable stalls, pickle jars, or piled on the trees. Under the roots, it adds a bit of bleakness to the autumn. 【26nbsp;】

But the people walking on the street were not affected by this atmosphere at all. Many people had excited smiles on their faces, beaming like they were about to celebrate the festival. Even the naughty children who didn't understand anything were cracked. The small mouth of the front teeth laughed a few times, and took the opportunity to ask his father for a few copper coins to buy candied haws...

All this stems from the news that came back from the north yesterday. Mr. Cheng beat up the Mongols solidly, not only protecting the food, but also annihilating one of the Mongols' food grabbing teams and capturing another. Support, compared to the previous ones that only defended but did not attack, this victory is really very elated.

With a strong imperial court, even the most ordinary people would feel more secure, let alone Cheng Guogong's mansion, which was closely related to it.

In the Siqian hall, there are many layers of carved flowers and emerald greens, and the silver charcoal has been burned, and the heat is warm. Yuzhu was a little uncomfortable when he first entered, but seeing Xie's tightly wrapped appearance, he had no choice but to bear it——Xie's After all, the body is damaged, and I can't stand the cold.

The old man was so happy that his beard was slightly upturned, and he walked back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back. He calmed down a little when he saw the junior coming in. This sudden news was really surprising.The eldest son is mature and prudent, but his ability is still not as outstanding as the second son. This time he unexpectedly encountered such good luck.

Of course, what made him so happy was not only the size of the credit, but the timing. After the emperor ascended the throne, he was busy dealing with the mess left by the previous emperor, the canal, the treasury, the disaster in Yuzhou... and the previous corruption and deficit. Once this merit is established, even if it is for the sake of face, the emperor will not let it go so easily, and some substantial benefits will not escape.

After thinking about it, he looked at Yuzhu with a loving face, this time it was really thanks to the second daughter-in-law, if he hadn't been reminded first, if he was caught off guard, no matter how powerful the boss was, he would not be able to get away unscathed, let alone make meritorious deeds.This daughter-in-law is really well married, not only from a prominent family background, but also a prosperous family...

Yuzhu felt a little uncomfortable being watched, and took small steps to hide half of her body behind Cheng Xunxun. In fact, I really don't need to thank me...

The corners of Cheng Xunxun's mouth curled slightly, and he said with a smile: "I don't know when the eldest brother will come back, but when we get home, we should have a good drink."

"Haha, that's how it should be, that's how it should be." The old man stroked his short beard and nodded with airs on his face. Then he realized that his emotions were too obvious, so he quickly turned solemn and stood a little far away from him. Some Cheng Siyi reprimanded: "What are you doing standing so far away? A big man is acting like a pissed off daughter-in-law all day long for anyone to see... and make up your mind to do something. You will only waste food and embarrass your father." .”

Ji Shi hurriedly puffed out her stomach, and took a step forward.

Seeing that the incompetent eldest grandson had lowered his head, and that the grandson-in-law was still pregnant, the old man let go, cleared his throat, and continued: "This time it's really God's blessing, it's not just a superficial credit , what's even more rare is... there are some great people in this group of prisoners."

Cheng Xunxun also became interested, guessing: "Could it be that the squad leader has a high status?"

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly: "... the youngest prince, do you think you have a high status?"

Yu Zhu took a deep breath, this is another kid running around, a good prince... It's fine to take a whiff once in a while, but he doesn't have the ability, so he sucks himself in all at once.Now it's all right, the whole team has been taken over in one pot, I don't know if his parents are willing to pay a big price to redeem him back.

"The little prince is only 16 years old this year. He is powerful and brave at a young age. He has just made his mark on the grassland. This time, he wanted to lead a surprise army to win by surprise, but he was ambushed instead... God bless me. "Chao" the old man raised his head slightly, his eyes flashed with excitement, as if he remembered the scene when he went to northern Xinjiang when he was young, and he felt a little embarrassed for a while.

"Although you can't kill to vent your anger, you must have what you should have." The old man's eyes sparkled, and he weighed it, "I don't know what the emperor will exchange?" Fu laughed twice, and sat back leisurely. , took a sip of water, "Whether it's a horse or a piece of land, the boss always deserves credit..."

It's a pity that the old man guessed the ending correctly, but he didn't guess the process...

Half a month later, news came out from the palace that the imperial court will welcome back Princess Zhuyi soon——

One stone stirred up waves

Who is the princess of Zhuyi, I am afraid that the Lord Gaomen of Beijing knows clearly, but he just deliberately forgot.

There is no other reason, the princess's marriage is a great shame of the court - and the marriage

As early as the founding of the country, some emperors put forward slogans such as "We are the respect of the country, surpassing the past, not afraid of barbarians, no alliances, no old coins and brother empire gifts", who knew In the previous dynasty, the princess was still sent out for various reasons, and she was the daughter of the queen, which caused the queen to die early...

Knowing this, the old man kicked over the table angrily in the mansion, wishing he could rush to the palace to kneel down to remonstrate, but in the end he let out a long sigh: "Missing the country girl..."

In the end, the value of that little prince was equal to a princess who was sent to be married by the previous dynasty, plus two hundred horses... Many military officers secretly murmured at home that if the princess of Zhuyi was not brought along, the number of horses would definitely be doubled... What a fucking pity, that's a premium grassland Mongolian horse

The emperor is also very entangled in the palace. The imperial sister in name is the serious eldest daughter of the emperor, and she is born in the middle palace. She has a noble status and is much older than him. She has no impression at all. How can she talk about family affection... To be blunt, who is willing to give up such a big benefit for her?

What a pity... The teacup in his hand fell heavily on the imperial case, and there was a faint gloomy look in his delicate eyebrows and eyes. The Mongols are really cunning, and they wanted to redeem the little prince without paying too much, so they deliberately sent all the princes to him. Princess Yi added to the topic of negotiation

In this way, out of face, I really can't say no...

Why did the royal father... throw down a memorial that praised his meritorious deeds at the beginning, so frightened that the servants in the palace lowered their heads again and again, for fear of being angered.

Li De'an shrank his head and ran over on tiptoe, bowed his waist and picked up the memorial, carefully wiped the dust that didn't exist with his sleeve, wondering if he should go forward to have a good time, let the emperor calm down, and avoid suffering from disaster .

After going through the words three times in his stomach, he opened his mouth cautiously: "Pang Taiyi, who is on duty today, said that Concubine Rong is in good health, and the little prince in her stomach is also healthy, so I'm giving the emperor good news."

The young emperor was originally restrained, and he had already calmed down at this moment. He glanced at Li De'an lightly, and there was no trace of happiness or anger on his face: "What's the big joy, isn't it not born yet?"

Concubine Rong was born in the Dai family of Fuguo General, if she gave birth to a prince this time, that side would be ranked second, and there would inevitably be another fight in the future... What's the good news, he is very clear about the dirty things in the harem.

Li De'an was so regretful that he wanted to slap himself for saying the wrong thing, to call you cheap, to make you talk too much...

Hurry up to make amends, this time I picked the eldest prince and said, although the topic is a little old, but it is better to keep it safe, "The eldest prince ate two pieces of milk cake yesterday... His hair has grown by half an inch, and it is black and thick... ..."

Seeing that the emperor's expression softened, Li De'an breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly continued, there is a lot to say, every day the little noble son in the empress's palace doesn't know how much he has to whisper in his ear... Think about it A box of golden beans hidden in the room, he talked even harder...

The ministers at the bottom observed the situation and knew that the emperor's mood would not be much better. They all wanted to go back and tidy up the prepared birthday gifts, but they must not make a mistake and hit the muzzle of the gun!

……

In the evening, when Cheng Siyi returned to the house smelling of alcohol, the Ji clan had already rested, and the maid on duty was surprised when she saw the young master coming, but it was too late to stop her... He did a little freshening up in the clean room After that, he ran to the inner room with his shoes on, and got under Ji's quilt.

In a daze, Ji Shi felt that someone was lying on the bed. He was so frightened that he was relieved when he heard Cheng Siyi's voice, and asked, "Did you drink alcohol? Let the servant girl make you some hangover soup..."

Cheng Siyi didn't make a sound for a long time, and after a while, he choked out two words: "Don't bother."

"The concubine is pregnant, so I can't serve... How about you go to Aunt Chen's room." Ji Shi was helpless. Although he didn't want to let Xianggong go to the aunt's room, it was obvious that the man had drunk and the child in his stomach More important than anything else, I had to reluctantly persuade.

Feeling his hand touching her, Ji was very anxious, fearing that he would drink madly and hurt the child, and was about to call the maid outside to come in, when she heard a faintly crying voice in her ear: "If you don't go, I will Sleep here, don't drive me away too."

He didn't poke his hands into the obscene clothes, but gently touched his wife's slightly protruding belly.

"Why would you drive me away?" Ji said softly, "You can sleep if you want, Yeliang, do you want to let the servant girl add another quilt?

"I want to sleep with you in a quilt." Cheng Siyi muttered, gropingly stretched out a hand to tidy up the corner of the quilt, and even pressed Ji's side.

Ji's body froze. It was the first time she received such care from her husband. After being shocked, she suddenly had the urge to cry. She turned her face to let the pillow towel absorb the tears seeping from the corners of her eyes. She slowly stretched out her arms She put her arms around the man's waist, and patted his back gently: "Sleep, it's already late, if you don't sleep, the child in your stomach will not follow you."

Cheng Siyi choked up like a child, and answered vaguely, "...it's all my fault, they all blame me, I caused my mother to be killed, my father and mother were separated...they all hate me... ...Little Chen also lied to me, she killed all the children in Baohuan's belly in order to fight for favor...Only you treat me well, only you don't dislike me..."

Breathing slowly and evenly down.

Ji Shi has been gently stroking his back, listening quietly, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe, reward, yours Support is my greatest motivation.)
