foster husband

Chapter 41

In the sixth year of Yuanhui, the first day of March, it was a sunny day.

Dai Wang went to the Wuling Princess Mansion to attend classes as usual.

It's just that when he arrived, his brothers asked him: "Why are you here again? It's not that the emperor is sick!"

Dai Wang felt puzzled and replied: "The doctor is here, Brother Cheng Wang is here, and Brother Zhao Wang is also here! I have nothing to do there!"

Ok!Don't expect Dai Wang to understand what filial piety is, the key is to explain it clearly to him, and it's a waste of saliva.

Coincidentally, Mr. Zhao arrived, and everyone immediately scattered with the water, and went back to their respective one-acre three-point land to listen to the teacher's training.

Mrs. Zhao’s surname is Zhao Wen, his name is Xuchu, and his name is Mr. Liuke. He is about 40 years old. I heard that he also worked as a doctor of Guozixue. At the intersection of Yixiang, but unexpectedly, he accumulated more and more reputation, and became a generation of bold and unrestrained celebrities.

But all celebrities are lonely and eccentric, and each has their own eccentricities. If they are all the same, they are not qualified to be called celebrities.

The eccentricity of this Mr. Zhao is probably that he starts drinking when he gets up, paints as soon as he drinks, and writes poems after painting. The key point is that he writes all erotic poems.

However, since he was invited by Pei Tianshu, he also knew that he should set a good example for the students, so he restrained himself a bit.

I just don't know if some girl is confused today, is she using wine as mouthwash?Or the old cat was greedy, and took advantage of King Zhongyi's absence to steal the wine.

Anyway, as soon as Mrs. Zhao came in, even Tan Zhongxiu, who was sitting at the back, could only feel the smell of alcohol rushing towards his face, and he was drunk by the smell.

Therefore, the lesson to be learned today is painting.

Master Zhao flicked his pen and played a trick, and a picture of proud plums in the snow was created in a short time.He endured the hand that wanted to write a poem, threw the pen away, and asked the students below to copy it or improvise, and he turned around and nestled on the wooden railing of the promenade to sleep.

Tan Zhongxiu bet with Qili, betting half a month's pocket money that Master Zhao would fall off the carved wooden railing.

Except for Dai Wang, the rest of the people were stuck at the window and watched intently. They stared at the incense sticks for several minutes, let alone fell off, and heard Mr. Zhao snoring loudly, but they were as stable as Mount Tai and did not move at all. Pass.

Tan Zhongxiu lost all his pocket money, walked back to his seat resentfully, and prepared to grind and paint.

When passing by Dai Wang's side, I took a look with my head, and saw that he was holding a pen in his hand for a long time, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he asked: "My lord, what are you..."

King Dai raised his head and smiled naively: "I'm thinking about how to draw. Should I draw the tree first, or the snow first, or the flower first?"

Tan Zhongxiu was good at writing prescriptions, scratched his head and said, "I don't know, why don't you think again!"

Dai Wang nodded, continued to hold the pen in his hand, and remained silent in thought.

Several other people also returned to their respective positions and began to struggle with the paper, ink, brush and inkstone.

They painted for about half an hour, and those who painted quickly, such as Qili and Bajun, were almost finished.

At this time, Dai Wang, whose face was flushed for some unknown reason, suddenly realized like Mao Sai, just like Mr. Zhao, he swiped his brush and finished the painting in just a moment.

Ba Jun found it inconceivable, and shouted: "My lord, if you draw a talisman with a ghost, the master will punish you severely." As he spoke, he stretched his head to look, and was suddenly speechless in astonishment.

It turned out that the idiot Dai Wang was quite talented in painting. He saw that this painting was comparable to that painted by Mr. Zhao.

The people were also surprised, surrounded Dai Wang as the center, and praised him in one go.

Dai Wang didn't respond, but his face became more and more red, and even beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

It was Tan Zhongxiu who first realized what was wrong with him, and asked him: "My lord, what's wrong with you?" When he touched it with his hand, his forehead was hot.

Tan Zhongxiu hurriedly asked people to disperse, and was about to feel his pulse, but he fell directly to the ground with a "bang".

At this time, someone rushed into the princess' mansion and shouted loudly: "The emperor is dead, quickly let the princess change into a filial dress and enter the palace."

Ever since the emperor became seriously ill, Pei Tianshu hadn't been back to the princess mansion for several days.

When the Chu family first heard the news of the emperor's death, they were stunned, and hurriedly ordered everyone to mourn, and put Pei Jinyu in heavy filial clothing, then took her out of the house, put her in a carriage, and personally sent her into the palace.

Of course, he also brought the unconscious Dai Wang and Pei Zheng, who was familiar with the palace, along the way, just in case.

Pei Jinyu hadn't come to his senses until now, and he couldn't believe Lin Qingluan—he was dead.

Don't they all say that the scourge lives for thousands of years!
When she entered the palace, she saw white lamps and tents hanging everywhere, as well as the officials kneeling and howling in front of the palace, her mind was numb, and her inside was blank.

She did what others led her to do, and she didn't care about thinking about it. She still gave Lin Qingluan mourning.

Then a eunuch came to announce the decree, saying that it was the emperor's decree before his death, and named Pei Jinyu the eldest princess. He also excused the concubine from being buried with the concubine because he couldn't bear it, but gave her the Taoist title of tranquility, which took effect immediately.

This is to the point of loathing her to the point of refusing to sleep with her even to death.Concubine Xian over there, oh no, Daoist Jing Xian, "cried" and passed out.

Can you not faint?Going around, Nima became an aunt again.

The little eunuch finished announcing the decree, regardless of the fainting concubine over there, he said to Pei Jinyu in a low voice: "Eldest Princess, King Zhongyi has explained that if you are too tired to panic, just faint. Get ready, little one...Chun Bao."

Pei Jinyu had a dull face and didn't respond, but when Chunbao left, she really "dizzed" with her back foot!

There was a mess again, and someone shouted: "It's not good, the eldest princess is too sad and passed out!"

Someone pinched her, but she also held back and said nothing.

I heard that person say: "Send the eldest princess to the East Palace too! The imperial doctor is currently in the East Palace to treat the king's illness."

Immediately afterwards, there was a long period of shaking, and when someone hugged her on the bed, Yan Xueqing's voice came from not far away, "Okay, you all go away, I'll show the eldest princess."

Feeling his hand on her veins, she opened her eyes, facing his dark smiling face.

Yan Xueqing smiled and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Pei Jinyu blinked and shook his head.

He added: "Then you can just play here!" He didn't forget to complain: "Your father is very narrow-minded. He said he is not dead yet, so you are not allowed to be a filial daughter to others." Even the emperor can't do it. !
This is really like what her father said, Pei Jinyu wanted to laugh, and grinned.

In Yan Xueqing's opinion, this smile was a bit perfunctory, so he asked, "In a bad mood?"

Pei Jinyu thought for a while and nodded.

"sad?"

"...not really."

"Fear?"

"No."

"Then you are..." This little lady is really hard to figure out!
Yan Xueqing scratched his ears subconsciously, then thought about it, there are people crying everywhere, no matter how good the mood is, facing these things is not so wonderful.

He nodded heavily, and said again: "Then you can play here!"

After he finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong. He seemed to have said this just now, and added an uncomfortable sentence: "No one cares about coming here now! Hmm... I have to go and see Dai Wang."

Yan Xueqing is a bold and unrestrained "sister" who has made a lot of friends. He is not good at talking to girls from good families, and he has nothing to say to young ladies.

If you have nothing to say, you can have nothing to say, but the work is still reliable.Before he left, he patted Pei Zheng on the shoulder, and solemnly confessed: "Take good care of the eldest princess, King Zhongyi..." You know how cruel it is!
Seeing Pei Zheng nodding her head and saying "yes", she wobbled away.

Dai Wang's fever has subsided, so he has to find a place to play!
As soon as Yan Xueqing left, Pei Jinyu sat up from the bed, called Pei Zheng and said, "I want to play the piano."

Now that the old man has passed away, whether it is love or hatred, the resentment has disappeared.

She thought, with only one song—to send off the old friend!
Not long after, Pei Zheng found Qin.

She ordered: "Go and watch outside the door."

Peizheng retreated to the door, but listened to the movement in the room with her ears up.But waiting for the sound of the piano, tears flowed down his face suddenly, and he knelt down in front of the door.

This "Fang Hen Song" was written by one person, and there is only one person in this world who can play it.

It was the eldest princess who felt melancholy when she first heard about the son-in-law's incident, and said: "I only know that you are deeply affectionate, but I forgot your surname. I only know that you are miserable, but I forgot your ability. Until now, Fang hates, Fang Hate! Love is three thousand deep, but in the end it can't match the power and position! The love between you and me is just a dream!"

Pei Zheng was like waking up from a big dream, muttering to herself: "No wonder, no wonder!"

At the end of the song, Pei Zheng stretched out his hand to push the door, and entered the room in a kneeling posture.Arriving in front of Pei Jinyu, she kowtowed again and cried, "Eldest princess, slave... Liu Zheng, it's my son-in-law, no, it was Lin Qingluan who changed my appearance for me."

Pei Jinyu was startled, and after a long time, she slowly said, "What Liu Zheng, you are clearly Pei Zheng."

Pei Zheng didn't make excuses, but still kowtowed: "Yes, the slave is Pei Zheng."

Pei Jinyu smiled at him, but for some reason, his eyes darkened, and this time he really passed out.

In the tall hall, Dai Wang Lin Chiu just woke up from waking up, just staring at the beam without saying a word.

The imperial doctor has been here several times, and they all said that he is fine.

In fact, Hu Zui knew in his heart that they thought Dai Wang was stupid anyway, even if he was a little more stupid, it didn't matter!

But in the end, he had served Dai Wang personally for several years, and he had feelings for him.

Although Dai Wang is stupid, he treats these attendants very well.

The mouth of the pot wiped away tears, and said in a soft voice: "My lord, it's been a big day, you should drink some water to moisten your throat."

Dai Wang is still quite dead.

Huzui persuaded him for a while, but Dai Wang didn't respond, so he stopped the food completely and put on the cup instead.

The cup giggled, and came to Dai Wang: "My lord, this servant has learned a new trick, if you don't change it, I'll show you!"

Then he took out the magic weapon and started playing in front of the bed.However, Dai Wang didn't even move his eyeballs.

The cup is also out of service, so put it on the spoon.

Shaozi squatted in front of the bed and cried, "My lord, how can this be done? The princess is also sick, and she is recuperating in a side room in the Qiming Hall of our Eastern Palace!"

Lin Chisel finally had a reaction, and sat up straight from the bed. The spout and the cup staggered back in fright, and the spoon kept crying without knowing it.

Until someone pushed him, the spoon raised his head: "My lord."

"... Spoon!" Lin Chi frowned. He didn't think the name "Spoon" was bad before, but now he sounds very stupid.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, anyway, when he woke up, he felt something was wrong.He couldn't tell exactly what was wrong, but he just felt that he was thinking too much in his head.For example, when I saw a spoon before, he was a spoon. Now when I see a spoon, I will subconsciously think where he came from, how long he has served me, and what loyal and unfaithful things he has done.

He subconsciously divides people into usable, unusable, easy to use, not easy to use, and so on.In short, there are many things that come to mind subconsciously.

He thinks he is sick.

But now when he heard that Pei Jinyu was ill, he felt that his illness was actually nothing serious, it didn't hurt or itch.Although there were too many things in his head, he didn't feel that his head was too crowded. Since there was no inconvenience, it was better to go to see his sister.

Dai Wang Linchi put on his shoes and asked, "How do I get to Qiming Palace?"

The spoon wiped away tears, and shouted towards the spout and the cup: "Hurry up and lead the way for the prince."

He is a hero, he persuaded the prince well, but he has the right to shout.

The spout and the cup didn't bother to catch up with him, and led Lin Chiu out the door from left to right.

At this time, Pei Jinyu had only woken up for a while, and was drinking the white porridge that Pei Zheng had found somewhere.

Days like this have to last for many days.

She asked Pei Zheng: "Where is the emperor's mausoleum? Could it be also in Beiman!"

The ancestors of the Wei family were also buried in Beimang. If this is the case, this is the rhythm of dying and not being able to live in peace!
Pei Zheng became more and more respectful to her, bowing her head and said: "I heard that the mausoleum has not been built yet."

Pei Jinyu laughed, which emperor didn't start to build the mausoleum as soon as he ascended the throne, but he wanted to earn a good reputation even after he died.

Pei Zheng said again: "The slave also heard that he ordered Master You Rong to burn him..."

Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Pei Jinyu said: "If there is anything else you want to say, let's finish it together!"

"Yes." Pei Zheng nodded respectfully: "I don't know whether the rumors I heard are true or not. I only say... the eldest princess's... body is still well preserved, and they will be buried together!"

"Bah!" Pei Jinyu suddenly threw the spoon in her hand, realizing that she had lost her composure, she sighed, and said after a while: "That's it, that's it!" It was just a broken skin that was useless.

I only ate half a bowl of porridge, and began to close my eyes and rest.

Pei Jinyu didn't open his eyes until someone suddenly opened the door.I saw that the visitor was wearing filial piety clothes like her, and seeing that she was about eight or nine years old, I knew that the sudden intruder was Princess Yiyang Lin Huan, the emperor's younger brother, no, it should be the new emperor, is his daughter.

Lin Huanlai was aggressive and angry, and stared at her fiercely with his pair of water-cut autumn eyes.

Pei Jinyu probably guessed why she was angry, but just looked at her calmly, without making a sound.

Lin Huan broke out and said: "Uncle Huang passed away. You are Uncle Huang's adopted daughter. Uncle Huang personally named you the eldest princess, but do you look like an eldest princess?"

Being accused by a little girl, Pei Jinyu could still laugh it off, but she is not in a good mood now.Lin Huan's uncle Huang was the one she wanted to completely forget but still couldn't.

She smiled abruptly and said, "You say I'm the eldest princess, so what are you?"

Mo Xin, the palace maid behind Lin Huan, shouted, "Bold, this is Princess Yiyang."

Pei Jinyu still laughed, Pei Zheng was quick, and slapped Mo Xin on the face, and said: "Although the eldest princess is younger than Yiyang princess, she is the eldest princess who was appointed by the late emperor. You have to salute when you meet the eldest princess, let alone you little maid!"

Lin Huan became angry, pointed at Pei Jinyu and said, "How dare you hit my people! What are you? You are just a prince's daughter. My father has already ascended the throne. In terms of honor, how can you compare with our royal family?" ..."

Pei Jinyu interrupted her with a sneer: "What am I, you can ask your father or the late emperor."

Lin Huan said: "I just want to ask you, because you are also worthy to be the eldest princess!"

"I don't deserve it, so you deserve it! I'm just a concubine!" In terms of poisonous tongue, how could she be Pei Jinyu's opponent.

Lin Huan let out an "ah", and shouted regardless: "Father has not been crowned queen, how do you know that I am a concubine!"

"Oh, does the princess think that my aunt is dead?" Unexpectedly, there was a cool sound from behind.

Lin Huan shuddered and turned around, only to see Mrs. Lu standing in front of the door with Dai Wang at some point.

She wanted to defend herself: "Mother...I..." She didn't know what to say for a while, so she knelt down with a "plop".

Lu said with a smile: "Princess, please don't call me mother, your mother is Wei Ji!"

When Lin Junyou was still the emperor's younger brother, Wei Ji was already the side concubine of Wei, but Mrs. Lu called her Wei Ji, just to remind Wei Ji all the time that she was just a singer, but she became a side concubine. Even if she is pregnant with Liujia again now, even if she will give birth to a prince in the future, she still cannot get rid of her background as a singer.

However, it is a toy.

A plaything should be a good plaything, and do your best to please the benefactor, but your heart is higher than the sky, so you can't blame her for making her life thinner than paper.

Lin Huan was young after all, she blushed and was at a loss.

Lu said lightly: "Okay, just do what you have to do!" He never put her in his eyes from the beginning to the end.

Lin Huan walked away in a daze.

Only then did Mrs. Lu say to Pei Jinyu in a good voice: "I told the eldest princess to read a joke!"

The eldest concubine could no longer be called, and the Empress Ceremony was never held, so Pei Jinyu called Lu Shi "Mother", and was about to get up to salute her, but deliberately shook her body.

Lu held her down and said, "Okay, don't let the eldest princess see me outside. I don't have a daughter. I only gave birth to two living monkeys, King Cheng and King Zhao. I dream of having a princess as beautiful and intelligent as the eldest princess." What about my daughter! You hurry up and rest, I just came to see if you are better, but I can't stay long, there are other things to do."

Indeed, after a while, Mrs. Lu left.

The pot lid was ordered to make some snacks in the kitchen, and brought them up, please enjoy them on behalf of the king and the eldest princess.

Pei Jinyu didn't know where his mind wandered again, and took a wet handkerchief on behalf of the prince, and wiped her little hands.

Pei Jinyu woke up startled and asked, "What are you doing?"

Dai Wang blushed and pointed to the snacks on the case: "Sister, eat cake."

Still that stupid.

Pei Jinyu didn't have the heart to argue with him, so he stuffed two dollars at random, and fell asleep while he babbled about "sister, drink tea" and "sister, do you want to play", these very boring words.

After finishing her work, Mrs. Lu wanted to take a rest for a while, but remembered that she had not sat firmly in the back seat, so she got up and went to Qiming Palace again.

What she saw was such a scene, the eldest princess was sleeping soundly on the bed, but the servant became the acting king.I saw him sitting on the edge of the bed trying to endure the sleepiness, his head still bouncing, it was so funny.

Lu Shi gently pushed him: "A chisel is still young, and it's not a problem to sleep with the eldest princess!" She only remembered that Dai Wang was a very stupid and innocent person, but she ignored the fact that men and women had different seats at seven years old.

Lin Chi rubbed his sleepy eyes, looked at Pei Jinyu's sleeping face, and shook his head firmly: "My sister doesn't like it."

Lu Shi just laughed and said nothing, thinking, people, it's okay to be stupid and pure, but they are much simpler and happier than smart people.

Lin Chi only thought that he thought of other things, and said in relief: "Don't worry, Auntie, you have two brothers, King Cheng and King Zhao." How could the queen's position fall to someone else.

As for whether to keep it or not, although it is a good way to win over ministers, it is also a big taboo.

Lu Shi only thought that he was still that stupid acting king, and stroked his head with a smile: "Auntie not only has King Cheng and King Zhao, but also you!"
