The next day Gu Ye entered the palace and met Feng Yu, the two of them guessed something from each other's faces, and invariably said: "Did your mother say you?"
After asking, they laughed together again.
When there was no time, the two chatted again, Gu Ye told him what Gu Yin persuaded him, and Feng Yu continued: "My mother's meaning is similar, not to mention that we did something wrong in front of us, just worried that we are young, I'm afraid that we will taste the sweetness at a young age, and it will be out of control."
Gu Ye nodded, "My mother said how to use this mental attack and who to use it, we have to control the 'degree' of it. If we don't master it well, we will go astray. But it's okay, the two of them will take care of it. Well, I don't think we can grow crooked."
When it was time for lunch, Gu Ye did not go back to Kunning Palace to eat, but went directly to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Emperor Zhengyuan was so busy that he had time to take a break. When he saw him coming over, he said, "Are you here to eat again?"
Gu Ye finished the ceremony and said again: "What the emperor said, it's only right and natural for my father to take care of his son's meals. How can it be called 'cooking rice'?"
Emperor Zhengyuan gave him a sideways glance with a smile, and asked people to add two more dishes according to his taste.
When they were in the British government, Gu Yin, Wang Shi and others didn't like to be served by servants, and it was the same for Emperor Zhengyuan.
The palace servants are only responsible for setting the meals, and the food is still done by themselves.
One big and one small cleaned their hands and sat down at the table.
When eating, the father and son don't pay attention to any rules, and they will chat a few words when they think of it.
After dinner, Gu Ye rinsed his mouth, wiped his mouth, got down from the chair, bowed respectfully, knelt on the ground and said, "I apologize to you son."
He was so serious about his business that Emperor Zhengyuan waved his hand to retreat, asked him to speak, and asked him where did it come from?
Gu Ye knelt down and said: "Earlier, the father and the queen heard something that my mother and I said. In fact, the son asked about it specially, and the mother told the father to listen to it."
With that said, Gu Ye's body fell even lower.
Unexpectedly, Emperor Zhengyuan said: "It's just this matter? I'm shocked, and I think you really caused something wrong with this monkey."
With that said, Emperor Zhengyuan got up and pulled him from the ground himself.
Gu Yeren sensed a bit of taste in his words, and asked sternly, "Does the royal father know all about it?"
Emperor Zhengyuan looked at him with a smile, "Have you forgotten what my father told you before? If my father doesn't want to see it, then it won't happen."
Before, Gu Ye borrowed Xiao Luzi's hand and gave Qian Sansi that special scented sachet.
When Qian Sansi brought it to him, Emperor Zhengyuan was very observant, so he naturally noticed it. When he asked later, Qian Sansi did not hide it, he had already told him that it was a gift from his apprentice Xiaoluzi.
His eldest son is not someone who is diligent for no reason, and Emperor Zhengyuan just waited to see what he was going to do.
The next day I heard their mother and son chatting.
What else does he not understand?
Thinking of the eldest son's busy work, just to help him and the queen untie the knot, Emperor Zhengyuan was moved and pressed, without any grudges.
What he said really made Gu Ye shy, he really thought he was extremely smart before, and he had no last resort!
The co-author, his emperor's father, had already noticed it, but he just got off the donkey down the slope.
Come to think of it, his emperor's father is not as brave and capable as his uncle, and there is no ink in his stomach. If he has no real skills, he can be fooled by anyone's calculations. Where will it be his turn to sit on the throne of the new dynasty?
Thinking of this, he buried his head even lower.
Emperor Zhengyuan patted him on the back, "Don't be like that. Speaking of which, the father and the emperor have to thank you. Your mother has a hard heart, but she has to be strong, and she will only tell you if you ask. In the early years, yes The father is sorry for your mother, and I always wanted to find an opportunity to have a good chat with her. Now that you are building a bridge, I finally found what she was thinking. "
Saying that, Emperor Zheng Yuan sighed again, "It turns out that I have changed over the years, but she has not changed. What I want is the days when I was in the village in the past."
Gu Ye saw a trace of sadness in his eyes, and persuaded again: "Actually, it doesn't matter what changes, as long as you have your mother in your heart, and the mother also has you in your heart, these days, it will change more and more in the end. the better."
Emperor Zhengyuan gave him a bald head lovingly, "So you don't need to apologize, your original intention is to hope for the harmony between your parents."
After the father and son had finished chatting, Emperor Zhengyuan got up, waved his hand to chase away flies, and said, "I will have some free time at noon, and I want to see your mother, so don't follow, go back to your Xiefang. go to the temple and rest."
Gu Ye said goodbye obediently, and before leaving, he muttered that his own father had a daughter-in-law and forgot his son.
Hearing that Emperor Zhengyuan almost threw him with the folds at hand!
When we got here, we didn't mention it, but at the same time, Gu Ye and Feng Yu also took this matter to heart, reminding themselves from time to time in the future - it's a must, but it can't use someone close to you. On the body, you have to adjust the scale yourself.
…
Another day, Lu Xu returned to Xiefang Hall after dinner from Yonghe Palace, with an unstoppable smile on his face.
Gu Ye and the others met, and naturally asked him what good things happened to him.
Lu Xu smiled and said, "It's a good thing, my sister has a name! It's called Chaoyang, doesn't it sound good?"
The twins born by Concubine Feng were originally twins with auspicious meanings, but when the two children were born, Lu Xu, who was considered to be better, was slightly less than ordinary children, not to mention his sister, who was almost born when she was first born. She died, and although she was forcibly rescued later, all the imperial physicians and the old medical immortals showed her, and they all said that it was not very good, and she could only do their best to obey the destiny.
How bad is it? When this child sees strangers and is frightened, he will faint and hold his breath at any time.
Emperor Zhengyuan opened a separate hall in the Yonghe Palace, and the imperial doctor and the imperial physician took turns to take care of her, not allowing strangers to approach.
We all know that this child will not live long, so Emperor Zhengyuan has never given her a name, and usually will not bring her to people, only occasionally mention the royal family and such a princess in a few words.
This is the norm nowadays.
After all, in an era where early death of children is becoming the norm, if you give a name to a child who will surely die early, or let everyone get along with her, then when it's time to lose her, everyone will It's a small blow.
Now that Emperor Zhengyuan has given a name, it also indicates that most of the child will survive!
Gu Ye and Feng Yu are naturally happy for her, but unfortunately, Lu Xu said that Chaoyang is still weak, not to mention seeing more people, even if the wind blows a little more, there will be headaches, even he and Feng Guifei only Can take a look occasionally.
Gu Ye and Feng Yu didn't even say to see her, and turned around to find gifts for Lu Xu to take back.
Gu Ye also prepared a copy for Lu Zhao. It was not something valuable, but a peace amulet and a small jade tablet that were invited back from the temple, all of which were blessed by eminent monks chanting sutras.
What Feng Yu gave was the jade safety buckle he wore since he was a child.
After class that day, Lu Xu returned to Yonghe Palace for dinner, and brought these things back.
Feng Guifei first recognized the safety buckle. When Feng Yuan was poisoned and almost died, Ge Zhuer went to the temple on the hill near the military camp to get it back.
Later, Feng Yuan really saved the danger, and the safety buckle was always worn on him, which was regarded as a token of love between him and Ge Zhuer, and was passed on to Feng Yu later. Feng Yu has really been free from illness and disaster since he was a child, and grew up safely.
She had an impression of this thing. She had just given birth at that time, and the two children were not very well, and she was feeling uncomfortable.
At that time, the new dynasty had not yet been established, she was not yet a noble concubine, and there were not so many rules and regulations. Feng Yuan and Ge Zhuer both went to see her together.
At that time, Ge Zhuer took out such a thing and wanted to give it to the two children. She also explained the origin of this thing, and said that she hoped that the two children would be able to save the danger like Feng Yuan at the beginning, and then, like Feng Yu, Grow up without sickness.
At that time, Concubine Feng wanted to accept it, but Qin Shi, who was beside her, scoffed and said, "How can something like this be worthy of my grandson and granddaughter?"
At that time, the victory of the rebel army was in hand, and Feng Guifei gave birth to the prince and princess of the imperial family in Japan.
After listening to her mother's words, Concubine Feng also disliked that thing that was not on the table, and Ge Zhu'er put the Ping An deduction away.
Unexpectedly, after going around for years, this thing was still delivered to me.
Feng Guifei was taught by the Qin family since she was a child, that people have to climb up.
The situation she faced was indeed the same - when she used to be proud, even if the palace servant refused to do things for her, she had to respect her and flatter her. Now, although she is also a noble concubine, but since Emperor Zheng Yuan ordered her to reprimand her and let her close the palace and think about it for a while, the palace knows that she is unloved, and the situation of worshiping high and stepping low has become more and more obvious.
But it seems that the world is not all the kind of people who follow the wind and step on the low, and some people are consistent.
Concubine Feng rubbed the safety button for a long time without saying a word, and finally asked someone to hang it at the entrance of her daughter's bedroom together with the safety talisman and the small jade plaque.
Maybe it was because God was soft-hearted, or maybe the things sent by Gu Ye and Feng Yu really worked. In June, Chaoyang's situation got better.
In mid-June, when it was her and Lu Xu's fourth birthday, after discussions and deliberation with several imperial doctors, it was determined that Chaoyang could appear in front of people.
Emperor Zhengyuan did not give them a big deal, but set up a lively family banquet in the palace, and posted a post together with the Duke of Lu.
Only Qin Shi and Feng Yuan came to the Duke of Lu's mansion, and Lu Yuanqi was not present.
Feng Guifei had not met her own mother for a long time, so when they met again, she naturally had to chat and ask about each other's situation.
She asked Lu Yuanqi first, but Qin Shi didn't feel good: "It was good to look at her in the past, but I didn't realize that she was spoiled by the Lu family's arrogance, and she was like a black-eyed chicken in the back house every day. The whole family has not been able to live peacefully for a day. It is annoying to see, so naturally I can't bring her here on an occasion like today."
"That girl means..."
Qin's words changed, "I didn't mean that. Divorce is impossible. Divorce has to return the dowry. You don't have to think about reconciliation. Your brother has only reconciled once and again. I don't know what to say outside."
Anyway, that's what the Lu family meant. It's impossible for his family to cut off the family from the Duke of Lu's mansion!
Just waste it! Let's see who wins in the end!
After all, this is a good day for a pair of children. Even if it's a bad thing about her mother's family, Feng Guifei doesn't want to listen to it, and if she asks, it's over.
After the mother and daughter chatted again, Feng Guifei naturally talked about her little daughter, saying that it was really difficult in the past, how could she dare to imagine such a day? At that time, Emperor Zhengyuan also told her that if her daughter was not in good shape when she was three or four years old, she could only follow the practice of her predecessors and send her daughter to the nunnery as a monk, and count her as a Taoist or Buddhist person. prolong her life.
That is the most impossible way at the moment, and the child may not be able to live in that situation. Even if he survives, he is considered an outsider, and he cannot have too deep entanglements with the world.
Speaking of emotions, Concubine Feng couldn't help but turn red, but she turned to see Chaoyang, who was being held by Emperor Zhengyuan on his knees. Although he was still thin and weak like a kitten, he didn't know how to talk or walk, but he could listen and laugh. , full of vitality, no longer the ceramic doll that couldn't even come out of the house, Feng Guifei couldn't help laughing again.
Seeing her like this, Mrs Qin hurriedly said: "My lady's vision should not only focus on the three-acre land in front of you, no matter how good the princess is, it is also the daughter's home. What future can it bring to our family? What should you pay attention to? Naturally, it is still our Third Highness!"
The smile on Feng Guifei's face stagnated, and she said coldly, "Chaoyang and Axu both came out of my stomach, what does mother mean?"
On this occasion, I don't know how many palace people are staring at it, and many words are difficult to elaborate. Qin shi said vaguely: "Anyway, Niangniang should understand what I mean."
The mother and daughter said a few words together, and finally broke up.
After the banquet, Concubine Feng helped her children count the birthday gifts they received.
The Queen Mother, Empress Zhou, Emperor Zhengyuan, Gu Ye and others don't give anything that is priceless, but they can see that they are full of blessings and hope that the two children will grow up healthy.
Especially in Chaoyang, who is getting better now, the Queen Mother and Emperor Zhengyuan both feel that they owe her a little, so the birthday ceremony for her will be more particular.
On the contrary, it was the two things sent by his mother, Qin Shi, that Feng Guifei looked at and felt very uncomfortable.
The Qin family gave Lu Xu a set of small knives, small swords and small bows. Although they were all made of wood, the wood was of the best quality. In terms of value, it was not inferior to gold and jade, and the polishing and carving were very fine and gorgeous. It's hilarious, there's not a single thorn in it, and it's best for a boy at this age who has begun to want to dance with knives and guns.
The Qin family gave Chaoyang an eight-treasure necklace.
Although the collar was gorgeous and precious, Concubine Feng Gui vaguely remembered that it was one of the gifts sent to the Duke of Lu from the palace earlier.
She fumbled around in the collar, and sure enough, she found the unique emblem in the palace.
Obviously, this is just something that Qin's people found from the warehouse at will.
Concubine Feng Guifei didn't listen to Qin's words for the first time in the past, and she focused on her daughter. Of course, it didn't mean that she didn't care about Lu Xu, but Lu Xu didn't come back often, in front of Wenhua Hall and Xiefang Hall, Feng Guifei couldn't reach out.
Emperor Zhengyuan looked at the child's face, and didn't bother her any more. He occasionally came to Yonghe Palace, but praised her that she finally looked like a mother now.
Although Feng Guifei's life was different from the previous one, it also passed a different pattern.
…
In June, the weather was already unbearably hot.
Gu Yin and Wu Qingyi's marriage arrangements were also put on the agenda. Wang Shi really had nothing to say about Gu Yin. Although she was going to the chapel again, she didn't take it seriously.
She had prepared everything for marrying a daughter-in-law. At the same time, as her maiden family, she also prepared a dowry for Gu Yin.
She gave a small part to Shen Hanchun of the farm shops she bought earlier, and she planned to take Gu Yin to change the name of the rest, and all of them belonged to her name.
Gu Yin really didn't want it. Shiweitian Restaurant was already in her name, and it was already a valuable property.
Just relying on the restaurant, she now has an income of one thousand and several hundred taels a month.
Wang Shi never wanted the money she earned, so she kept it all by herself.
As for the other property shops, the British government paid money to buy them, and they had nothing to do with her.
One of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law insisted on giving, and the other insisted not.
Later, Gu Ye found out, and said that he could put Gu's shipping company under his mother's name.
The boathouse was rewarded by Emperor Zhengyuan earlier, and it was much more valuable than the land purchased by the Wang family.
At that time, Emperor Zizheng Yuan hadn't talked to them yet, he just said that it was the reward they deserved.
The family was still very confused at the time, so they first recorded it under Gu Ye's name and let him and Wu Qingyi watch the operation of the ship.
Now, of course, I know that the boat line is naturally rewarding them for raising the eldest son of the royal family who lives abroad.
Gu Ye was adopted by Gu Yin and the Wang family together. Although Gu Yin did not want to take the credit alone, Gu Ye was indeed the closest to her. This award fell to her, which was justifiable.
As soon as this idea was proposed, the rest of the family naturally agreed with it.
The little brat sent it, and Gu Yin did not refuse any more, and went with him to change the deed.
Fortunately, the surname Gu was used when the name was named before, so the boat line did not need to change its name.
Time blinked to July, and the day of marriage was just around the corner.
The wedding invitations had been sent out a long time ago. Although it was a lively and formal event, Gu Yin didn't like those pomp and ceremony, so she invited people close to her.
The Wen family, together with Xu's mother and son, the old Ge family husband and wife, Chef Xu and two young apprentices, as well as shopkeeper Zhou and Ge Zhuer, Shiweitian and other employees, together with Gu Ye to help Empress Zhou who was invited. Wait, it's considered a family member to watch the ceremony.
On Wu Qingyi's side, he and Wu Zhong's colleagues and subordinates in the army were invited, and the number of people was several times more than that of Gu Yin's family.
Before getting married, according to the rules of Batou Village, Gu Yin and Wu Qingyi could not meet.
At the end of June, Gu Ye helped his mother pack up the ceremony and took her to the next door to Prince Lie's mansion.
Then she will be married from here.
In the past few days, Gu Ye stopped staying at Xiefang Hall, and returned to Prince Lie's mansion after class every day.
Now Wu An has also officially become Lu Zhao's companion. The two came out of the palace together and rode the carriage together, but when they got to the door, they had to separate, one entered the palace of King Lie, and the other entered the palace of the British government.
In the past few days, everyone has let Gu Yin feel at ease to marry, and the weather is really hot, so she hardly goes out.
Gu Ye was afraid that she would be bored at home, so he borrowed some lonely recipes from the library in the palace, and let Gu Yin go through it slowly.
With these things, Gu Yin could stand it even more naturally. She often looked at it and went to the kitchen of Prince Lie's mansion to test it out, and the day was over in no time.
When Gu Ye came back, Gu Yin had already prepared the dinner, and she made it all by herself.
After Meimei finished her meal, the two went to the study together. One to write homework and one to read recipes.
Although the days are almost the same as before, it seems to have an additional meaning of being only each other and relying on each other.
When the two of them were all done, Gu Ye would still sleep in the same room with her on the grounds that she was afraid that she would not be accustomed to changing the environment.
Of course, after his seventh birthday, Gu Ye, who began to pay attention to the defense of men and women, would definitely not go to bed, so he just had someone move a concubine's couch into the inner room.
Although the two of them didn't sleep together at night, they could talk for a while through the curtain.
After the rest of the day, Gu Ye mentioned Chaoyang in the palace and said, "Lu Xu is so embarrassed now. Among us, he is the only one who has a sister. He doesn't forget to show off to us every day. It's delicious, when A Zhao first came, I cared a lot about A Zhao, and he quit immediately. Now his mother-in-law spends most of his time taking care of Chaoyang, not only does he not eat at all, but he only cares about it. I'm afraid his mother-in-law didn't take good care of Chaoyang..."
After talking, Gu Ye added: "It would be great if the Japanese mother gave birth to a sister for me. I promise to do better than Axu and be the best brother!"
Gu Yin was lying on the bed and fanning, she couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "I didn't know who it was before, but I told me repeatedly that I didn't want me to have other children, so I had to wait for him to be older, and then bigger…”
Gu Ye was said to be blushing, and quickly sat up and argued: "That person is already big enough now!"
Seeing that he was in a hurry, Gu Yin hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, you are already an eldest child. But this younger brother and sister is not something we agreed to do, maybe it's a matter."
Gu Yefu lay down again, "A Zhao also urged his mother to give birth to a younger sister for him. Mother and mother work hard together, there will always be something!"
This kind of thing still brings hard work together, Gu Yin spat at him with a smile, let him sleep quickly, don't worry about it.
Gu Ye went to class for a day, fell asleep after a while, and started snoring.
Gu Yin turned over and was about to fall asleep when she heard a sudden noise from the window lattice.
Prince Lie's mansion is more heavily guarded than the British mansion next door, so naturally there can be no owls.
Gu Yin smiled lightly, got out of bed lightly, and opened the window to take a look—
The night outside the window was dark and the moon was shining brightly. There were no strangers, only Wu Qingyi standing alone.
The ends of his hair and the hem of his clothes were soaked with dew, and he had obviously been standing for a long time.
