Chapter 1403 708 Renjun (Two More)
Nangong Yue and a few maids on the side listened carefully from beginning to end, especially Thrush, and they wished they could take a pen to record everything.
It turns out that there are so many things about this little doll. Nangong Yue said in her heart that although she has not started to sew underwear for Nannan, she has already prepared two pieces of clothing.
She thought for a while and said, "Concubine Wei, I just sewed two small clothes a few days ago, can you help me to see if there is anything wrong, I can also change it sooner."
Wei Shi's mouth twitched, naturally he responded.
Without Nangong Yue's instructions, Baihui immediately went into the inner room and took out two small clothes, which were presented to Concubine Wei respectfully.
The child will be born in the early spring of next year, so Nangong Yue specially sewn two small jackets, one is bright red, embroidered with golden carp; the other is pink, pink and tender, like the peach blossoms in the early spring generally.
Wei Shi was a little dumbfounded.
Not to mention the red color, it is suitable for both men and women, but this peach pink color is clearly for female dolls.
What does the princess mean?
Could it be that Concubine Shizi already knew that her child was a daughter?
Hearing that Concubine Shizi has extraordinary medical skills, could it be that Concubine Shizi has some secret method to know in advance whether the child in her womb is male or female? ...Otherwise, the palace has no grandchildren yet, so it would be too weird to "curse" to have a daughter by himself.
Wei Shi couldn't help but glanced at Nangong Yue quickly, seeing her looking at him expectantly, her expression didn't seem different.
Yes, Concubine Shizi is the first child, even if it is a daughter and a son in the next child, it is a good thing to make up the word "good".
Wei Shi said to himself in his heart, on the surface, he started to gossip about these two little jackets...until the maid came to report that Fu Yunyan was here, and Wei Wei took the initiative to say goodbye.
Of course, Fu Yunyan didn't come alone. She was accompanied by a boy over three years old, followed by a woman in green who looked like a wet nurse.
The boy was wearing a brocade robe with blue willow branches, his jet-black hair was meticulously combed, and his round face was handsome and lovely. Although he arrived in an unfamiliar place, the little guy still kept his eyes open while walking, showing good upbringing.
Nangong Yue's eyes couldn't help but focus on the little guy, lingering incessantly, feeling a little surprised.
When she left the capital, Nangong Heng was only one year old and staggered, but now it is very different, his face is ruddy, and he is in good spirits. He can no longer see that he is the premature baby who almost lost his life.
It turned out that this little guy looked neither like his father nor his mother, but somewhat like his uncle Liu Qingyun.
As the saying goes, the nephew is like an uncle.
Thinking about it, Nangong Yue was in a better mood, the corners of her mouth were raised, she looked at the little guy and said, "This is Brother Heng."
Even the usually informal Fu Yunyan subconsciously softened her tone when facing a three-year-old child and said, "Brother Heng, this is your third aunt."
Nangong Heng took a few steps forward, bowed to Nangong Yue, and said in a milky voice, "My nephew, please greet the third aunt."
His gestures and words are very decent, but they are made by a child, which always makes people look a little funny, as if his heart was touched by a soft feather.
Nangong Yue almost couldn't help laughing. Brother Heng not only looked like Liu Qingyun, but also had some similarities in words and deeds.
"Brother Heng, no gift. Come here, come and see you." Nangong Yue beckoned and called him over, rewarded him with a gold collar inlaid with jade, put it on for him by himself, and rewarded him with a set of four treasures of the study. .
Nangong Heng thanked Nangong Yue obediently. Seeing that Nangong Yue was more and more happy, he asked him a few questions and learned that Nangong Sheng had already started to help him enlighten him, and the little guy had memorized the Three Character Classic by heart.
After Nangong Yue taught him a few words, he let Thrush take him and the nurse to play while playing.
In the eastern room, only Nangong Yue and Fu Yunyan were left.
When the child left, the room felt quiet for a moment, and the atmosphere became a little more subtle.
Nangong Yue said: "...Ayi told me that my brother has gone back to the capital."
Fu Yunyan smiled reluctantly, with a bit of helplessness in her expression, and said, "A Xin left for more than a month ago. If you count the days, he should have arrived..."
On the same day, when Butler Wu traveled all the way to send Brother Heng to the southern border, he also brought a letter from Nangong Mu to Nangong Xin. After reading the letter, Nangong Xin immediately became red-eyed and wished to fly back with her wings. The king went to the capital, but in the end he held back.
As a member of the Nangong family, at the juncture of the family crisis, no one is qualified to be willful, let alone make unnecessary sacrifices.
Both Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu sent Nangong Heng to Nanjiang in order to keep the blood of the Nangong family. Nangong Xin and Fu Yunyan must protect Nangong Heng, and at the same time save a force for the Nangong family to plan for the future.
During those days, Nangong Xin was extremely tormented. He often had trouble sleeping at night. Of course, Fu Yunyan saw these things in his eyes.
It was not until later that Nangong Xin learned that the fraud case was over and Nangong Qin cleared his grievances. He finally couldn't help rushing back to the capital alone, leaving Fu Yunyan and Nangong Heng to stay in Luoyue City temporarily.
Looking at Fu Yunyan's slightly tangled eyebrows, Nangong Yue gave her a reassuring smile, and comforted her: "Sister-in-law, don't worry too much. The overall situation of the capital has been settled, the eldest uncle Zhaoxue, and the family is safe, brother this time. It'll be alright to go back."
Fu Yunyan also understood this truth in her heart, but Wang Du was too far away, she was thousands of miles away by herself, and she was always worried about what would happen.
"Ayue, what you said is true." She smiled relievedly, and then laughed at herself, "Fortunately, you are back. I'm a little worried about everything by myself."
She stuck out her tongue, her playful look as if she was unmarried.
The atmosphere in the room became more relaxed. After Fu Yunyan smiled, he suddenly thought of something and changed his words: "No, it's not 'you' who came back, it's 'you' who came back." She looked at her wickedly. Nangong Yue's flat belly made her face stained with flying clouds.
Nangong Yue didn't pick up Fu Yunyan's words, she picked up the tea cup beside her to hide her shyness.
Fu Yunyan didn't care either, and said to herself, "Hey, it looks like I have to work hard too."
Thrush and Queer, who were waiting on the side, twitched their brows, and they had a hunch that this second aunt would have something amazing to say again.
really--
Fu Yunyan said cheerfully, "Ayue, I said in my letter last time that if you have a son and I have a daughter, the two families will marry each other and kiss each other. Do you think it's good?"
I can't let Ah Yi hear this... Nangong Yue's mouth froze, and she said helplessly, "What if I give birth to a daughter?"
Fu Yunyan waved his hand casually, and said, "Then I will try my best to have a son, and the third female junior holds a golden brick. I don't believe that I can't have a son in three years!"
There was silence in the room, Thrush and Queer almost "sympathized" with Nangong Xin who was far away in the capital...
Just as he was talking, a maid came to report that Xiao Yi was back.
So, Nangong Yue asked someone to call Nangong Heng back from the next room and let Xiao Yi meet.
Nangong Heng bowed to Xiao Yi in an orderly manner: "I have seen the third uncle..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was suddenly picked up by a pair of strong arms, and the final sound turned into a low cry, but he was taught to understand etiquette since he was a child, so he immediately kept his voice silent, his lips were pressed together, and his black eyes But it's shiny.
The Book of Rites says that a gentleman holds his grandson but not his son.
Since Nangong Heng could remember, his father, Nangong Sheng, had never hugged him like this. Since he learned to walk, his mother rarely allowed his nanny to walk with him in his arms. For him, this was the first time he had been hugged like this by an adult man. In his arms, his vision suddenly widened a lot.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he looked curiously at the unfamiliar third uncle in front of him.
"Brother Heng, you have grown taller." Xiao Yi said with a smile.
It's only been two years, and this little doll, which has not reached his knees, has grown a lot. Will it grow so tall when she is more than three years old?
"Thank you third uncle." Nangong Heng thanked him in a serious manner, causing Xiao Yi to laugh.
Xiao Yi naughty flicked on Nangong Heng's forehead, and said, "You grew taller yourself, thank me for what?"
After all, Nangong Heng was only three years old, so he was a little overwhelmed for a while.
Nangong Yue reluctantly helped her little nephew and said deliberately, "Ayi, put down Brother Heng, you scared him."
Xiao Yi shrugged, thinking to himself: How can boys be so easily frightened.
But he still put down Nangong Heng obediently, as if he saw Fu Yunyan on the side, and said again with a smile: "Liu Niang, over there in the capital, I will send someone to watch, A Xin will definitely be safe. You and Heng will be fine. Brother, just have a good time with Ah Yue in the southern border."
Xiao Yi said while blinking at Nangong Yue diligently.
Fu Yunyan had read the letter from Wang Dulai's family, and knew that thanks to Xiao Yi, the whole family would be safe in this fraud case. Hearing him say this, he could not help but feel relieved.
Nangong Heng looked back and forth at Xiao Yi and Fu Yunyan in confusion. He didn't understand what the adults were talking about.
Nangong Heng pursed his lips, he hadn't seen his father and mother kiss for a long time.
He lowered his head halfway, hiding the longing in his eyes, and was about to cry...
...
Speaking of the capital, although the fraud case has come to an end, for Nangong Mansion, this time the waves have not subsided.
After Nangong Qin submitted a letter of resignation for the third time, the emperor finally reluctantly agreed.
The emperor's imperial decree was personally delivered to Nangong Mansion by Eunuch Liu, affirming Nangong Qin's achievements over the years, and rewarding him with a lot of fertile land, gold, silver, and cloth, allowing him to resign and return to his hometown.
This holy purpose caused an uproar in the Nangong Mansion. It was not until now that the Su family knew that Nangong Qin had resigned from office, and he had to take the whole family away from the capital, so he almost fainted.
She finally waited for the fraud case, and thought that the Nangong family would be more prosperous, but she did not expect that her son would resign at this time and return to his hometown!
The more Su Shi thought about it, the more angry she became. After Eunuch Liu left, she immediately became furious, angrily scolded Nangong Qin for being unfilial, and even more firmly stated that she would never return to her hometown.
In the end, it was the grandchildren of Nangong Sheng and Nangong Xin who kept coaxing and persuading them, and the Su family knew that Nangong Xin was still the companion of the fifth prince Han Lingfan, and would continue to stay in the capital and accompany the fifth prince to Mount Tai. After offering sacrifices to the heavens, he calmed down a little. In the Su Clan's heart, he felt that the Nangong Mansion was temporarily retreating. After the fifth prince ascended the throne in the future, the Nangong family would still be able to return to the capital.
After finally appeasing the Su family, Nangong Mu, Nangong Xin and Nangong Sheng followed Nangong Qin to his study.
The four pillars of the Nangong family all looked tired. After the four of them sat down, they were speechless for a long time.
After a while, Nangong Qin Fang said: "A Xin, this time you will go down to Mount Tai with your Royal Highness the Fifth Prince to worship the sky, but you must be careful about everything." He rubbed his eyebrows, as if he was pressing down on a mountain.
Ten days later, the fifth prince, Han Lingfan, will go to Mount Tai to worship the heaven on behalf of the emperor.
Since ancient times, the Taishan sacrifice is a ceremony that only emperors can hold to sacrifice to the gods and the earth. The emperor asked the five princes to go on his behalf. Naturally, there is a deep expectation for the fifth prince, but thinking of the current situation in the court, thinking of this time The fraud case, Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu are not optimistic about the future of the fifth prince.
"Uncle, nephew knows." Nangongxin bowed cautiously and replied, looking at Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu, a feeling of parting was born spontaneously, and said, "Uncle, father, brother, when you leave , I'm afraid I won't be able to send you."
Nangong Mansion had already decided to leave the capital and return to his hometown in September. At that time, Nangong Xin was probably still on the way back from the trip to Mount Tai, and it was definitely too late to see her family off.
There was a faint sadness in the study, and in addition, there was a kind of powerlessness.
In the eyes of outsiders, the Nangong family is a century-old scholarly family. Whether it is in the court or in Shilin, it has a force that cannot be ignored. In the wind and waves, a random wave can completely crush the Nangong family.
Nangong Qin Youyou sighed, frowned slightly, and after a while, he asked earnestly, "A Xin, what do you think of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince?" His wise and deep eyes looked at Nangong Xin for a moment.
Nangong Xin was stunned, then replied respectfully, "Returning to Uncle, my nephew thinks that His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince is modest, diligent and studious, polite and virtuous, and has the style of being a king..."
Nangong Qin raised his hand to signal him to keep silent, and said, "A Xin, I know what you said." As he spoke, his tone became more cautious, and even the air became dignified. "A Xin, you are the companion of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince. You have been with His Royal Highness for many years, and you get along day and night. You must have some experience that others don't have. There are no outsiders here, so tell me your own opinion."
Nangong Xin hesitated for a moment. As a friend, the fifth prince is impeccable, but as the future emperor, he...
Thinking about it, Nangong Xin's eyes were a little complicated, and after a while, he said: "Uncle, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince's gentleness is his greatest strength..." He swallowed hard, "But vice versa. "
Conversely, a mild temperament is also the fifth prince's greatest weakness.
As a prince, Han Lingfan's modesty prevented him from using means to fight for power and profit. For him, getting it was a blessing; losing it was a life.
If the world is clear and bright, the court is stable, and after the fifth prince successfully ascends the throne, he will surely become a king who rules the Quartet with benevolence and subdues the world with virtue, and is praised by the world for his benevolence and virtue.
However, all of this is based on the premise that "the world is clear and bright, and the court is stable". Once the court is turbulent, with the gentle methods of the five princes, I am afraid that the court will not be able to deter the court. fall aside...
Nangong Qin naturally understood Nangong Xin's unfinished words, sighed in his heart, and said, "It is true."
The fifth prince has a humble and generous temperament, and is more monarch-like than today's emperor, but his gentleness may lead to a situation similar to today's court.
Nangong Qin always felt that it was orthodox for the fifth prince to succeed the throne, but now, even he felt that it was too difficult for the fifth prince to succeed the throne smoothly.
The emperor's determination can be seen in the sacrifice of Mount Tai to the sky, but the emperor's determination has always been unable to suppress the eagerness of the courtiers.
Nangong Qin let out a long sigh and didn't say anything more, just instructed: "A Xin, you will stay in the capital alone in the future, you must be careful in everything... If you have anything, just go to your sister-in-law quietly. my brother to help."
"Yes, Uncle." Nangong Xin responded.
Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu looked at each other, and then Nangong Mu said, "A Xin, if you find that the situation is unacceptable, you might as well persuade the Fifth Prince to go to the southern border for medical treatment."
Nangong Xin was stunned for a moment. What does the eldest uncle mean... retreat?
Seeing Nangong Qin slightly bowing his head to him, Nangong Xin pondered for a moment, then nodded again.
The study fell into a silence, a dead silence...
