Concubine Wen Xi who traveled through time

355. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law

As soon as Yu Ludai's words fell, Li Dequan came to report: "Your Majesty, Mr. Cao has passed out from heatstroke."

Yuludai stomped her feet anxiously, and ran out quickly with her skirt in her hand, regardless of the rules.

"Bi'er——" Wen Xi couldn't call out in time, the sleeves embroidered with the swastika pattern could only hang down silently, and the heat wave that rushed into the main hall from outside was like a sea wave, alternating hot and cold, making people feel a little uncomfortable.The eunuch guarding the door closed the door immediately, but the heat could not be extinguished by the cold air in the hall for a long time.

Wen Xi turned to look at Kangxi, his face was so majestic for a long time, and now there was more intense coldness and anger that couldn't be said.A dragon robe with chi pattern and silk silk projected majesty with his almost furious aura. Kangxi squeezed the folding fan in his hand fiercely, almost crushing the jade bone.

"What does the emperor plan to do?" The day of returning to Luan has been set, and according to Kangxi's original promise, Cao Yong is also going to follow Yujia back to Beijing.

Kangxi said coldly: "After returning to Beijing, I will transfer him to Fengtai camp, hmph! I have praised him!"

Fengtai Daying is the most powerful military force in the capital, and those who can enter it are those who are trusted by the emperor. Fengtai Daying is also a place where the children of the Eight Banners are gilded. Without a strong family background, it is difficult to enter and serve as a general.

In the end, Kangxi refrained from having an attack, and only ordered to return to Luan early.Before Kangxi, Cao Yong was allowed to be the imperial bodyguard. You have no jokes, and you can't break your promise, but Cao Yong was not allowed to drive back to Beijing, and he was only appointed to work in Beijing a few days later.In this way, Yu Ludai would not even want to meet Cao Yong.

One day before starting to drive, Cao Yong's mother, Mrs. Li, came to pay her respects.Counting from the exposure of Cao Yong's thoughts, she no longer dared to hand over the sign to the palace. Now that she is here, it must be because of Cao Yong's begging.Mrs. Li is a very talkative person, and has always been decent, but today he is speechless.

Li Shi wanted to talk for a break, and wanted to speak several times, but swallowed it back.Wen Xi only lowered her head to tend the flowers and plants, and trim the flower branches.His brows were idle, as if nothing had happened.

After all, Mrs. Li couldn't help but said, "It's a slave who won't teach his son."

Wen Xi raised her eyelids, and gave her a sideways glance. Li Shi is not a person who blindly climbs the dragon and the phoenix, and has always acted decently.It's just that she only has such a son, so it's inevitable that she will always consider Cao Yong, but now... I'm afraid she can't plan well for her son.

"The slave has already told Yong'er many times, to persuade him not to be delusional, and the master has also severely reprimanded him many times." Li's brows were frowning, and she couldn't help lamenting again and again.

Wen Xi said quietly: "Who is not young and impulsive?" Wen Xi sympathized with Li Shi very much.Being a mother is not easy, and Wen Xi is deeply touched now.Yulu Dai has a stubborn temper.He also followed her, and now he is sure, and will never change his mind, Wen Xi is also very hesitant.

Seeing Wen Xi's gentle tone, Li Shi breathed a sigh of relief, blessed her body and said: "Thank you, Imperial Concubine, for your generosity."

Zhu'er opened the curtain and came in, Fushen said: "Master, Grandma Sun handed over the sign to see you."

Before Wen Xi could say anything, she caught a glimpse of Li's brows frowning.He was rather displeased, and immediately smiled and said: "The emperor is about to return to Luan, maybe mother wants to kowtow to the imperial concubine."

Wen Xi gave a grace, and said: "It's hot, tell her to go back." Wen Xi didn't bother to deal with this Mrs. Sun, this old thing might be up to something!

Zhu'er looked embarrassed, looked outside, and said: "Nurse Sun said, if you don't see her, she won't leave."

Wen Xi raised her eyebrows, "Oh?" Then she put down the silver scissors in her hand for pruning flower branches. The scissors were sharp and stained with the juice of flower branches. Get up." Then he turned around and sat on the glazed phoenix seat, and asked Zhu'er to invite Mrs. Sun to come in.

Mrs. Sun is also very old now, when she came in, she was slightly out of breath, maybe her old face was flushed after being exposed to the sun for a long time, but she was courteous, kowtowed and said: "Greetings to the imperial concubine and empress, All blessings, empress!"

Wen Xi called her up lightly, and saw that Mrs. Sun seemed to be wearing extraordinarily carefully today. She was wearing a festive deep maroon grosgrain flag dress with baoxiang pattern, and a red gold hairpin with a unicorn giving birth pattern was inserted obliquely on the big wing. Holding a string of agarwood bracelets in his hand, his whole body is dignified and luxurious, not at all like a person who was born as a coated slave.With a big smile on Sun's face, she opened her mouth and said, "Why don't you see the sixth princess of the imperial concubine?"

Wen Xi groaned softly, knowing that she came for Yuludai, so she turned to Li Shi and said, "Summer in Jiangning is really hot."

Mrs. Li hastily agreed, and said with a smile: "It's like this every year, so it's not necessary for Beijing to be cool!"

Wen Xi nodded, "Yes, of course Beijing is better."

"Yes yes yes!" Mrs. Li smiled and responded repeatedly, "The imperial concubine's palace in the Forbidden City is naturally a hundred times better than Zhizao Mansion, and naturally it cannot be compared!"

In this way, you said something to me, and you left the old lady Sun aside. Nanny Sun's face was so ugly that her face that was flushed from the sun just now was already livid, and she stared at her with her wrinkled old face horizontally. Daughter-in-law, I can't wait to turn my eyes into knives and slash her hard.

Wen Xi is not a fool, looking at Sun's eyes, she knew that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law must have been at odds for a long time.Normally, Li Shi would not embarrass her mother-in-law in front of others, but now that her son's future is at stake, how could she ask her mother-in-law to offend the imperial concubine again?So he tried his best to cater to Wen Xi, laughing at Yan Yan while talking.

"It's obviously too late to get married now. The servant and the husband of the servant are discussing how to get engaged to Mrs. Ma, the chief minister, and wait until next year to delay the marriage!" Li said with a smile. Li was originally looking for her niece. Yes, it's just that now, why are you still picky?It's good to stay away from right and wrong as soon as possible!

Mrs. Sun couldn't hold back any longer, and touched the floor twice fiercely with the red sandalwood old birthday star crutches she was leaning on. She glared at Mrs. Li angrily and said, "If it's an engagement, where do you want to put the sixth princess?!"

Mrs. Sun made such a clear statement, but Mrs. Li didn't know how to respond for a while. Naturally, Mrs. Sun didn't allow her to answer, and said in a deep voice: "Now everyone knows that the sixth princess falls in love with Brother Yong. If Brother Yong My son is married to someone else, do you plan to make the sixth princess a child?!" Sun asked with a particularly serious tone, which made Li's heart skip a beat.

"What nonsense did mother say!" Mrs. Li couldn't care less about mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and raised her voice in an extremely fierce tone, "The princess is a princess, and brother Yong is brother Yong! We are Han army flags, do we still have to think about Shang? Master?! Brother Yong is young, so it is inevitable that he will be a little impulsive. Isn't mother still sensible?!"

Mrs. Sun snorted heavily, leaning on crutches with both hands, quite arrogant: "Brother Yong is a first-class good man, even the emperor praised him! Why can't he be the Lord?! Besides, Brother Yong has feelings for the princess. , the princess is righteous to Brother Yong, King Xiang has a dream, and the Goddess also has a heart, so naturally they want to get married!"

Li's face turned pale immediately, wishing she could go up and cover her mother-in-law's mouth, dare to speak such nonsense in front of the imperial concubine? !Mrs. Li hurriedly looked at Wen Xi's face, although there was no change, she did not dare not be vigilant, and said: "Mother, our Cao family is a slave of the royal family, and my daughter-in-law thinks that a slave must abide by the principle of being a slave." Points, do you think so?"

Sun was furious, but there was nothing to refute, so she poked the ground and snorted angrily, "The emperor is the master of the world, no matter who it is, he is the emperor's slave! I know this better than you!"

Mrs. Li bowed to Wen Xifu, and said: "Brother Yong is young and easy to do wrong things. Naturally, this slave, a mother, has to try her best to make up for him, so this slave has the cheek to beg the imperial concubine."

Wen Xi nodded, and said lightly, "Talk."

"Yes," Mrs. Li slightly raised her head, "The Cao family and the Chief Minister Ma's family are well-matched, and please marry the imperial concubine!"

Before Wen Xi could speak, Mrs. Sun waited for Mrs. Li furiously: "I don't agree with this!!"

Li Shi said: "Didn't mother also like Ma Shi very much?"

Mrs. Sun was dumb, and then snorted: "It was before, now it is now!! Now I feel bad about Mrs. Ma! This marriage will not work!"

Mrs. Li stopped arguing with her mother-in-law, turned around and smiled at Wen Xi, "Let the imperial concubine make the decision."

How dare Wen Xi decide the marriage between the Cao family and the Ma family, if she bestows the marriage, it will be no wonder that Yu Ludai doesn't work hard with her!He said: "Your family affairs, go back and discuss it yourself!" After finishing speaking, he picked up the teacup, as if to see off the guests.

Wen Xi also felt a little headache after seeing off the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who couldn't even maintain their superficial peace.Not to mention Kangxi's objection to this matter, Wen Xi actually didn't agree with it very much in her heart, but she just didn't want to make Yulu Dai sad.If Yu Ludai really married Cao Yong, Li's mother-in-law would be fine, but Sun's mother-in-law is not a light-saving lamp!Moreover, Jiang Ning Weaving has failed for three generations, and now there is a big deficit in the accounts. As the only son of Cao Yin, Cao Yong is bound to take over the position of Jiang Ning Weaving in the future, and he is bound to take over an unsolvable mess!Wen Xi really didn't want Yu Ludai to get involved in this mess.

No matter how noisy the Sun family was and how reluctant Yu Ludai was, Yujia finally set off.Wen Xi restrained her daughter by her side and didn't allow her to move around, just because she was afraid that she would do something out of the ordinary again.On the same day, Cao Yong fainted due to heatstroke, and Yulu Dai ran away, ignoring the eyes of everyone, and helped Cao Yong go away in person, which caused a lot of discussion among the people in the palace.Kangxi deliberately told Wen Xi to be optimistic about Yulu Dai.

It's cool to go back to Beijing by water.Wen Xi had nothing to do at her leisure, while watching Yu Ludai, she asked Zhu'er to teach her new netting tricks.Yuludai had a sullen face, like a gourd with its mouth sawn off, and was surprisingly quiet.This girl has always been noisy, but now she doesn't say a word all day.

Wen Xi just lowered her head and tied a double happiness lace, using bright red silk thread, intricately weaving a pair of happy characters, it took a lot of effort.From time to time, Zhu'er pointed out what was wrong and where it should be tighter.
