little wife

Chapter 126

It has been a while since the birthday banquet, and Ning Luo has not seen Emperor Shenghe.She originally thought that when the eldest princess tacitly agreed to Jing Yun's recognition of her ancestor and returned to her clan that day, and Jing Yun personally carved the Tianhuangshi seal for Emperor Shenghe, she had expressed her heart, and Emperor Shenghe should recognize this The matter of recognizing the ancestors and returning to the clan, which was delayed for several years, was immediately put on the clan's agenda, but now it seems that there is no movement on the clan's side, but Yang Yan has received several important errands, and he is like a fish in water in the court.

The emperor's heart is unpredictable, and no one can say for sure what the emperor Shenghe is thinking.

Thinking of this, Ning Luo didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly stood up and went forward to pay respects: "My wife didn't know His Majesty was coming, so I was far away from welcoming you, Your Majesty, please forgive me."

The corner of Emperor Shenghe's mouth curled up, showing a warm smile: "Luo'er said it very well, you must first understand the way of martial arts before practicing martial arts, Ting'er, do you understand?"

After all, Yang Ting was only six or seven years old, so he nodded with half understanding: "Grandfather, I will be obedient."

Emperor Shenghe picked him up and said, "From tomorrow on, Ting'er will study and practice calligraphy seriously, and you can't be lazy anymore. You are the son of our Yang family, and all difficulties are just a rock to sharpen you." , as long as you are not afraid, you can become a person with profound knowledge and noble character, understand?"

"Yes! Grandfather!" Yang Ting replied crisply, and then asked timidly, "Can I go and see my concubine?"

Emperor Shenghe frowned. Yang Ting was very intelligent, but he also had a fatal weakness. He was raised by Chen Shi since he was a child. After all, Chen Shi was a narrow-minded woman. Ting has inherited the weak side of Yang Zhan's character, clingy and crying, especially attached to Chen.

Concubine Xu Shu greeted her with a smile: "Ting'er, didn't I tell you? Your mother and concubine are ill, so you should rest in peace, but you will disturb your mother and concubine's rest when you return to the palace. okay?"

"But..." Yang Ting said softly, "Mother Concubine is ill, shouldn't Ting'er go to Mother Concubine's bedside to fulfill her filial piety?"

Concubine Xu Shu was at a loss for words, and Ning Luo hurriedly smiled to smooth things over: "Can Ting'er make medicine? Can she dress and wash for her concubine mother? Ting'er think about how your concubine mother took care of you in the past? Would you worry about the weather? It’s too hot, and Ting’er is going to suffer from heat stroke? Are you worried that you haven’t eaten enough and slept well? When the time comes, your mother and concubine will be so busy, how can you recuperate well?”

Yang Ting's face collapsed, and it took him a while to nod in frustration: "I won't bother my concubine anymore."

"Your Majesty, don't be discouraged. If you grow up quickly and learn the skills, His Majesty will naturally allow you to visit the concubine mother." Ning Luo comforted.

Emperor Shenghe patted his head, and agreed with a smile: "If Ting'er really misses his concubine mother too much, he should listen to this lady. How about letting her take you to see your concubine mother?"

Yang Ting immediately beamed with joy: "Thank you, grandpa. Tomorrow, Ting'er will study hard with the master. If he is good at studying, he will go to see his mother and concubine."

Finally, the child was coaxed into temporarily forgetting Mrs. Chen, and played with toys in the corner of the flower hall with Yang Ke.Emperor Shenghe sat down and asked Concubine Xu Shu about Yang Ting's daily life, and Concubine Xu Shu answered them one by one.

"It's hard work to love my concubine," Emperor Sheng He said gently, "With his current situation in the mansion, I have no choice but to put him in Yuren Palace."

"Your Majesty is serious," Concubine Xu Shu said hastily, "Ting'er is obedient and obedient. It is only right for a concubine to help and take care of her. Don't worry, Your Majesty."

"Bring me a bowl of rock sugar lily water for me, my throat hurts a bit." Emperor Sheng He said with a smile.

Concubine Xu Shu went away in response, and took away the maids serving in the room, leaving Ning Luo alone by Emperor Shenghe's side, feeling uneasy.

"How is the mansion doing recently?" Emperor Sheng He asked casually.

Ning Luo couldn't figure out what he wanted to hear, so he had to tell the recent situation of his family from Jane. Emperor Shenghe listened with great interest, and when he talked about Xiaoshu's child, he asked Ning Luo a few more questions, and asked Ning Luo to enter the house next time. Gong brought it to him to have a look.

Ning Luo responded one by one, but at the end of the talk, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't think of any interesting topics, and the scene became a little cold.

Emperor Shenghe looked at her thoughtfully, and after a while he said: "Luo'er, you are gentle and calm, you can see many things clearly, you are indeed a lovely woman, no wonder Yun'er and Yan'er have deep affection for you Kind of hard to extricate yourself."

Ning Luo was startled, and met Emperor Shenghe's eyes: "Your Majesty's words, my ministers can't understand. His Royal Highness King Rui has already taken concubines and concubines, and he shouldn't have any indiscretions with his ministers out of love and reason. Think about it. As for Brother Jing, there is nothing wrong with our husband and wife being deeply in love with each other, and my wife doesn't understand what I did wrong."

"You didn't do anything wrong, it's just a trick of good fortune," Emperor Shenghe said indifferently, "I've been thinking recently, if they both proposed to marry at the same time back then, I didn't point you to either Yun'er or Yan'er, but It was the gift of marriage that told you not to marry someone else, will the two of them still be good brothers now?"

Ning Luo felt dizzy for a while, and almost stopped breathing for a moment.She managed to calm herself down, but her slightly trembling fingertips betrayed her.

"Your Majesty, my wife has always thought that Your Majesty is a wise, knowledgeable, affectionate and righteous king." She took a deep breath, and met Emperor Shenghe's gaze awe-inspiringly, "Your Majesty is a virtuous minister, a humble man, and knows people and handles tasks well." , Da Chen governs Haiyan, Heqing, and the people live and work in peace and contentment under His Majesty. Listening to His Majesty’s words today, it surprised the courtiers, and it turns out that His Majesty will also be blinded by such imaginings.”

Emperor Sheng He raised his eyebrows, and the faint smile on the corner of his mouth had disappeared, and he just looked at her expressionlessly.

Ning Luo's heart is beating like a drum, she knows she should endure, even if Emperor Sheng He is dissatisfied with her again, she just needs to keep silent and leave everything to Jing Yun. She is the wife that Jing Yun Mingmei is marrying, unless Sheng He Di and Jing Yun turned against each other, otherwise they couldn't do anything to her.

However, she couldn't bear it anymore. Like Jing Yun, she also regarded Sheng Hedi as her other father, admired and respected him, and had been working hard to improve the relationship between their father and son. But now she suddenly discovered that she had been The king he admired despised her deeply because of the unnecessary brotherhood, and regretted the fulfillment of that year.

"If a real brother is a real gentleman, he is upright beforehand, and admits defeat afterwards, how can he sever his flesh and blood because of a woman; if he is a false brother and a hypocrite, all the troubles of his beauty are just to cover up that wolf's ambition, and his flesh and blood are in his heart. It's just a skin that can be discarded at any time. Isn't it ridiculous that Your Majesty misunderstood that fake brother and hypocrite, and regrets here?"

Emperor Shenghe's face darkened: "Bold! You dare to speak so nonsense, what are you alluding to? Now Yan'er has already apologized to Yun'er for his past mistakes. Yan'er is full of brotherhood, but Yun'er has always kept his The momentary loss is kept in my heart, neither he nor I are warm..."

Ning Luo laughed angrily: "Is Your Majesty joking? Brother Jing has always had such a temperament. Was he warm to His Highness when he desperately saved His Highness? Was he warm to His Highness when he secretly prepared a birthday gift for you? If so His Royal Highness King Rui has some life-and-death matters right now, I'm afraid he will be the first one to rush forward, so is His Majesty judging brotherhood based on appearances?"

"What did you say?" Sheng Hedi looked at her in astonishment.

Ning Luo knelt down with a "plop", with a stubborn expression on her face: "My wife is rude in front of the emperor, but these words are stuck in her throat, and she doesn't speak out quickly. If you are disrespectful, please punish me."

"You...just said...he secretly prepared a birthday gift for me..." Emperor Sheng He suppressed the excitement in his heart, and looked at her suspiciously, "Why didn't I know?"

Ning Luo was stunned and said: "Your Majesty didn't receive it? Brother Jing carved a Tianhuangshi seal with his own hands for half a month, and two pieces of stone were damaged."

Emperor Shenghe's heart suddenly became eager, but after thinking about it, the blood that had just surged up cooled down again: "It's been half a month since the birthday banquet, why didn't I even see the shadow of this birthday ceremony? You want to lie to me, Wouldn't it be ridiculous to use an excuse that is not easy to get through?"

"How could I use this kind of thing to commit a crime of deceiving the emperor?" Ning Luo was in a hurry, "Brother Jing put it into the red silk with his own hands and tied it to the coral tree given by the eldest princess. Eldest brother said that he saw with his own eyes that the red silk had been untied, could it be that His Majesty has not received it?"

Emperor Shenghe stared at her eyes, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Tian Feng, come in for me!"

Eunuch Tian trotted all the way in from the outside, and said respectfully: "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

"Who put my birthday gift in the treasury?" Emperor Sheng He sternly said, "Who handled the coral tree sent by the Eldest Princess?"

Eunuch Tian was puzzled, and thought about it carefully for a moment: "Your Majesty's birthday gifts are all counted by the servants. There is indeed a coral tree, which is very beautiful and eye-catching. The servants even took a look."

"Then did you find a Tianhuangshi seal inside? Or wrapped in something... red silk?"

Eunuch Tian shook his head: "I didn't see it, could it be... that it fell off during the moving?"

Ning Luo was so anxious that she was about to cry, she couldn't wash it off even after jumping into the Yellow River: "Then besides you, did anyone else touch that coral tree? I found that Tian Huangshi, a high-quality stone with bright yellow texture. , engraved with the four characters Fushou Ankang, and in the lower left corner is the character Xi of Brother Jing, how could there be no such thing?"

"Think again, slave..." Eunuch Tian patted his head, desperately searching for the remaining impressions in his mind, "Think again..."

A voice rang out timidly: "Grandfather... the general's wife... what are you talking about... is this?"

Ning Luo, Sheng and Di Qiqi looked at the place where they were talking, and saw Yang Ting, who had been playing Nine Links with Yang Ke in the corner, ran over, holding a Tianhuangshi seal in his hand, the corner was missing. a corner.

"I can read the characters. It's the words my wife said. I didn't steal them. They were thrown in the grass by someone else. I like to pick them up." Yang Ting said naively, "I don't want them anymore, just give them back to you." All right, stop arguing."
