"Father, mother, concubine, let's see if the third brother wants to reunite with the second brother and his little sister!" Upon hearing this, the Gaomi King and his wife froze, but Princess Qingfang showed a hint of joy and said without hesitation. , "Third brother, what about my second brother and our little sister? When I was in Chang'an, they were the ones who stayed with me the most! We..."
"That's enough!!!" Before Princess Qingfang could finish her words, the livid Princess Gaomi suddenly burst out with an angry shout, "You bastard! He doesn't have a daughter like me, get out of here!" Don’t appear in front of him again!!!”
The princess had been ill for a long time, and the angry shout seemed to drain away all her strength. After the outbreak, her originally pale face suddenly showed an abnormal blush. She unconsciously pressed her chest and fell softly. Go east!
"Concubine, please calm down!" Seeing that situation, everyone was shocked. Rong Qingzui was the fastest. He immediately lifted up his robe and stood up. He walked to the princess's side in a few steps. He supported her and comforted her in a low voice, while sternly giving orders to everyone around him. , "I'm not going to ask the imperial doctor to come quickly?!"
Mrs. Qi looked at Princess Qingfang coldly: "Sister, how did my mother and concubine come here all these years? My biological daughter who has always been in love with my mother and concubine should know better than his daughter-in-law who came in later! It’s clear that the knot in my mother’s heart will finally be healed, so why don’t I have any grudge against my mother and concubine, so why don’t I just want to make my mother and concubine unhappy?!”
"Sister-in-law!" Princess Qingfang said that most of the people present in the meeting were focused on Princess Gaomi. She grabbed Qi from the front, walked aside, and whispered, "He heard... Third brother, he can't remember the fifth brother." What happened before the age of 18?"
"So I brought my second brother and my little sister here?" Mrs. Qi knew what she was thinking as soon as she heard it, and couldn't help but sneered, "Ordinarily, this is a matter between our biological brothers and sisters. His sister-in-law shouldn't talk too much. ! However, his good sister, I beg to be a good person and ask my father, the queen, mother and concubine if they agree?! Have I asked my third brother if he agrees?!"
Princess Qingfang pursed her lips, turned to look at Sheng Suihe, and saw that although he was not around to check on Princess Gaomi, he was looking at her sideways, as if he didn't even notice the whispers on her side. She felt certain in her heart and whispered: "Sister-in-law, just as the third brother said, the second brother and the younger sister are not the biological flesh and blood of the father, the queen, the mother and the concubine. Where did the family have an overnight feud? Why is the mother and concubine so resentful? After so many years, isn't it because the third brother is not around? Now that the third brother has come back well, we have also found out that the Sheng family who raised him before is a first-class wealthy family in Nanfeng County! Because the third brother was adopted Because my brother and his wife are childless, my third brother treats them as if they were his own children and has never been able to support them with good food and clothing!"
"It can be seen that the third brother is living outside and has not suffered much!"
"Even if he had some resentment at Lidong Cuo's family for the fifteen years he had been living in the house, how could he hate his own flesh and blood?"
"Not to mention that the third brother has lost his memory of the past if he is wrong. If he insists on telling him clearly, it will make him sad in vain. I think he just came back and has no feelings for us. He has a grudge. That's terrible. How's that?"
"It's better to leave the mistake alone and obscure the past things!"
"In this way, after two years, we will have a harmonious relationship. If we explain it clearly to him and let the second brother and younger sister apologize to him... wouldn't it mean that things will pass peacefully?"
"If he does that, it will not be good for everyone!"
"There are only a few people in our palace, so how powerful is the Meng family? If we brothers and sisters are seeking division among themselves, sister-in-law, tell me how worried my father should be?!"
Mrs. Qi listened expressionlessly, but continued to sneer and said: "Sister, he asked me, yesterday my father, queen, mother and concubine went to Ningwei Hou Mansion to recognize the third brother. After they came back, they talked about it in general in the manor. Regarding the situation of the third brother, no one was specially sent to inform anyone. But how did I know so quickly that the third brother had lost his memory from before he was five years old?"
Seeing that Princess Qingfang was startled, she sighed, shook her head and said, "Sister Qingfang, I need to be more careful! I don't care, my mother-in-law did the same to me as she did to my elder brother, but since then After I kept shutting up because of my second brother and my little sister, did my mother-in-law want to see me less and less?!"
"Tomorrow's mother-in-law even said that I would not ask to appear in front of her in the future..."
"My mother and concubine only have two daughters. Huihe has deeply hurt my mother's heart in the early years. Sister Qingfang, I also plan to follow in the footsteps of my sister Huihe and make my mother and concubine regret having children with me?!"
"That news was indeed sent to him by Huihe privately last morning." Princess Qingfang frowned and said, "But my sister-in-law is thinking too seriously. Huihe is not happy that his third brother has been found." , has no other meaning.”
Mrs. Qi sneered: "You don't have any other intention to make me notice the third brother's amnesia? Are you going to instigate me to bring her and the second brother to the house tomorrow to piss off my mother and concubine?!"
Seeing that Princess Qingfang was begging to say anything more, she was too lazy to listen, "My sister is busy with other things, he is so stupid! But please don't continue to be angry with me and make fun of my mother's body and safety! What do I do?" A daughter doesn't care about her biological mother, but her daughter-in-law wishes that her mother and concubine would go away forever so that they can fulfill their filial piety every month!"
As he said that, he saw Princess Qingfang stretching her legs to stop her, so she pushed her away hard, walked outside quickly, and called Dongren, "Are you stupid?! Don't you send her away quickly!?"
But he didn't even call out "second brother" or "little sister", let alone look at those two people at all!
Seeing this, Princess Huihe was about to cry and asked in a trembling voice: "Sister-in-law?"
The man in the curtain hat, Rong Qingzui, lowered his head slightly, covering up the resentment in his eyes, and whispered to her: "Forget it, little sister, don't make it difficult for my sister-in-law, let them go!"
They turned around and were about to leave, when Princess Qingfang came after them and said, "Let's go outside and wait!"
Qi followed and whispered, "Sister-in-law, the third brother is not a fool! The father, queen, mother and concubine have the same attitude as our second brother and little sister, how can he not be suspicious? At that time, because the mother and concubine were not feeling well, they also Is it because he came back not long ago, and we are all very unfamiliar, so we may not be able to get to the bottom of it! But in a few months, even if we are not suspicious, how can we not be curious?!"
"If you don't follow what he said, just be vague, and then how will you ask your father, the princess, and the concubine to answer him?!"
When Mrs. Qi saw her pestering her, she felt upset: "Since I also think that the third brother will ask the father, queen, mother, and concubines when the time comes, why should I, the elder sister, worry about that?! No, I don't think the father, the queen, and the concubine will do anything." The concubine has aged to the point where she needs me to give instructions for everything?! Don’t forget that there is a serious eldest son and daughter-in-law of him and my eldest brother in the house. I don’t think I am too much in charge or too troublesome. Are you tired of people?!”
"When will the mother-in-law be stimulated again? Can the mother-in-law endure such torture again and again?!" The sister-in-law shut up and was rude, and Princess Qingfang's tone became fierce, "Sister-in-law, I have been here for more than ten years. Year, although I have given birth to three daughters and three sons to my eldest brother, I ask myself, if my mother and concubine can protect me, how many people in Didong want to give birth to my eldest brother’s backyard? After I gave birth to three nieces in a row, my eldest brother, Give me a chance to give birth to a son?! And because I took too many prescriptions for having a son, I became obese and couldn’t lose weight no matter how much I dieted! If my eldest brother hadn’t listened to my mother and concubine the most, I would have respected him in every way. Sister-in-law, can I have such a fast and easy confinement now?! He is very reluctant to support us?!"
Qi's face darkened, and she wanted to get angry, but she looked down at her waist, which was three or four times as thick as before. Her anger was like the glimmer of light on a snowy night, fleeting. She was silent for a while, and then said calmly: " He and my eldest brother would never dare to make the decision on that matter! Since I wholeheartedly seek to be that compassionate person, I will go and talk to my father myself!"
Princess Qingfang went to say: "My father was looking at my mother and concubine at that moment... I turned around and asked my sister-in-law to help him tell my father!"
While their sister-in-law was biting her ears, Princess Gaomi had already been helped into the outer room.
King Gaomi and Rong Qingzuo followed him immediately. Rong Qingzuo originally wanted to turn around and call Sheng Suihe, but when he saw Sheng Suihe had walked over at some point, he breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to him: "Wait a minute." I will accompany my mother-in-law during the meeting. The mother-in-law has cared about me the most all these years. Only when she sees me by her side can she rest assured."
Sheng Suihe said "hmm" and said, "Your Majesty, the princess seems to dislike the young prince and Princess Huihe very much? Is that why?"
"...It's a long story. They can tell me from the beginning after my mother-in-law feels better, okay?" Rong Qingzhu moved his lips when he heard the words, and looked at him deeply. Before, he smiled bitterly and used discussion. He asked in a tone of voice, "Very well, I'll wait... Can you call me 'Mother Concubine' first? That way Mother Concubine will definitely feel a lot better."
Sheng Suihe said calmly: "Sorry, he just came here after all."
Rong Qingzhu's eyes showed disappointment, but he couldn't help but smile and said: "It's okay... we are a family after all. After a few months, I saw how good my mother was to me, and he believed that I could definitely call her 'mother' .”
When he shut up, the imperial doctor had been invited over. The imperial doctor had obviously been diagnosing Princess Gaomi. He didn't even say hello to anyone after entering. He nodded slightly and went straight to the bed.
After checking her pulse, the imperial doctor frowned: "Dongguan has said long ago that the princess is depressed and refuses to be treated properly. Her body is severely weakened and she is most taboo about emotional ups and downs! If the princess doesn't listen to her advice, please ask someone else. ! If you refuse to take the prescribed prescriptions and follow the taboos, then what does it mean that the medical sage is still alive? Let alone Dongguan’s meager skills!"
"Mr. Dong, do I know anything about the affairs in this palace?" Princess Gaomi didn't recover at that moment. After hearing this, she showed a weak and bitter smile. King Gaomi went to defend the princess, "Before, the princess had many things on her mind. Because I was separated from my third son, I can't let go! My third son Mingyue has been found, and it's too late for the princess to be happy. How could she not listen to the doctor's advice? But Qingfang, that unfilial daughter, made the princess angry by making arbitrary decisions!"
Only then did Dr. Dong calm down and said: "There is no need to prescribe another medicine, just take the one before. The princess has been suffering from illness for a long time, so it is not suitable to use strong medicines. I will bring bird's nests, donkey-hide gelatin, etc. to the east and stew them slowly. Come on slowly... The princess's health can't be cured overnight. The so-called heart disease requires a medical doctor. Since the princess fell ill due to the separation of her lover, if the young prince comes back tomorrow, the heart disease will go away on its own. There is no chance of complete recovery."
Hearing this, King Gaomi and Rong Qingzui both expressed joy: "I beg you, Doctor Dong, to be more careful!"
Sheng Suihe stood not far away, watching with a calm expression, neither sad nor happy, but silently thinking in his heart: "Then the good girl didn't know what she was doing at that time?"
Sheng Weiqiao had already left the imperial city at that time, and after greeting Meng Guiyu for a while in front of the palace gate, they parted ways.
In fact, Meng Guiyu really wanted to chat with her for a few more words, but Sheng Weiqiao was in a hurry to return to Ningweihou Mansion to report to his grandfather that he was safe, so how could he bother to delay? Meng Guiyu wanted to get close to her, so naturally he wouldn't do anything to make her like it. After seeing it, he knew what was going on and didn't dwell on it.
It was only after Sheng Weiqiao returned to Ningweihou's Mansion that he entered the back hall. Unexpectedly, he didn't come, but when he arrived, he handed over another post.
