After Zhao Zhe passed away, the palace only cried for three days, and Mo Yuhou used the excuse that the princes from all walks of life were about to arrive in the capital, and promoted the fourth prince Zhao Yu to the throne.
There were also objections in the court, the Fourth Prince was very young, so naturally it was impossible for him to be in charge. Hou Moyu's move was nothing more than trying to coerce the emperor to order the princes.
They don't need to talk about such a simple matter, everyone in the world knows it. But when Ning Mingjie's army returned to the capital, they guarded the important town next to the capital, and most of the officials in the court surrendered. Some people even suggested that Mo Yuhou should proclaim himself the regent.
Ning Yuxuan opened the gate of the capital, and also welcomed the princes from all walks of life, allowing them to station troops hundreds of miles away and bring dozens of cronies into the capital. They are all relatives of the royal family. The first emperor is gone and cannot be redeemed. The Xiao family, who was promoted to the empress dowager, endured the pain of bereavement in exchange for Xiao Tianyi's life, and only said that the fourth prince's accession to the throne is orthodox.
The princes didn't expect to ascend the throne so quickly, at least give them a little buffer time, right
No, the battle at the border stopped without any warning. Yuzhen Kingdom announced its withdrawal and offered tribute as compensation. The fourth prince sat on the dragon seat and played with toys, while Mo Yuhou stood beside him, giving advice on the affairs of the world.
Ning Mingjie is going to marry the princess of Yuzhen Kingdom, which means that the two countries have become allies again. The Xiao family was convicted and exiled, but Xiao Tianyi was retained by Ning Yuxuan and became a moderate official again.
All the complicated things in the world seem to be solved slowly. Mo Yuhou returned home in a sedan chair, on the way he inadvertently opened the curtain and took a look outside, many women in the boudoir let out a low cry and retreated shyly.
Lamp Wick had just been recalled to the capital, and looked at Mo Yuhou in the crowd, feeling a little sighed. After many years of separation, Master Hou is more handsome than before, no wonder the master is willing to stay by his side. He was just a restrained and handsome man before, but now he has the posture of a king in control of the world.
He hurried to the Hou's mansion with the burden, and the Hou Ye just got off the sedan chair. Deng Xin went to the side door to report to Steward Qian, and then changed clothes to serve in Beiyuan.
When we arrived at Beiyuan, the person on the bed seemed to have just woken up. Wick went in with the tonic and greeted him: "Master."
"Lampwick!" Ji Man was overjoyed, she was the one who left the lampwick in Jingzhou, why did she come here
Dim Wick put down the medicine, and bowed upright: "Master is pregnant, so Dim Wick should come back to take care of her."
Because of the shop left by Ji Man, she lived well in Jingzhou, and she was at the age of marriage, but Liu Rufeng pestered her again and refused to let her go, so she just married.
This time when Liu Rufeng was transferred to the capital, she also came with her, just when Lord Hou said that the master had regained his health and needed someone to take care of him.
The licorice and the clover were gone, and she was all alone.
Ji Man was so happy that he was no longer sleepy, he hugged Ning Yuxuan's arm and squeezed hard. Cold sweat broke out on the back of the lamp wick in fright, and quickly shouted: "Master!"
The master knew how to measure in the past, why is he so bold now? Hou Ye's current status is even more different than before, so he should be more careful...
Unexpectedly, Hou Ye, who was pinched by his master and frowned slightly, just took her hand off, looked at her nails carefully and said: "Your nails are very brittle recently, be careful when you split them and they will cry again later. Wick , get the scissors."
Lamp Wick was a little dazed, so he quickly agreed, and handed over the scissors next to him.
So she saw Hou Ye who was like a god on the street just now, sitting here quietly, lowering his head to cut his master's nails, and muttering while cutting: "Women like such long nails." What are you doing? Take care of yourself, I will cut it for you first, and we will talk about it after giving birth."
Ji Man winked at the wick, and obediently let him keep silent.
Wick looked silly.
Those scenes from the past seemed to be still in front of my eyes. Master Hou didn't like and wasn't close to his master, and he often had a straight face, or his face was livid with anger.
She never expected that Master Hou would sit beside her master so tenderly. Although the expression on his face was still a little hard, it really made her feel...
great.
Dim Wick's eyes were a little red, and suddenly he thought of licorice, and wanted her to take a look. You see, we used to have to work hard to keep ourselves from being killed and to help our master survive. Now Lord Hou has learned to love his master.
The grass on the licorice grave, I don't know how high it should be.
Turning his back to wipe away his tears, Deng Xin came over with the medicine soup in his hands: "Master Hou let the master use this first."
Ning Yuxuan nodded, took the soup after trimming his nails, but felt a little embarrassed in front of the lamp wick, pursed his lips and said to Ji Man, "Drink it yourself."
If you drink it yourself, you can drink it yourself, and you are not disabled. Ji Man pouted, took the cup and drank it slowly. Ning Yuxuan still couldn't help reaching out to pick it up, then handed it to Lantern, coughed lightly and said, "Have a word with Madam, Lanker, I have something else to do."
"Yes." Wick nodded.
Seeing the woman's bun on her head, Ji Man also had a lot of questions to ask, and as soon as Mo Yuhou left, Lamp Wick simply recruited her.
"Liu Rufeng is a pretty good person, but I don't know that Master Yun has gone." Dim Wick rubbed his nose and said, "I plan to come back to say hello."
Looking at her fair and tender face, Ji Man also knew that she hadn't suffered any grievances, so he couldn't help sighing: "It's considered complete."
"I heard that General Ning is getting married again." Deng Xin pursed her lips and said, "If Licorice knows, I don't know whether it will be happy or sad."
"I'll definitely be happy." Ji Man smiled: "Licorice hopes that Young Master Biao will be well, she is a kind girl."
"Yeah." Lampwick sniffed, "This servant still wants to visit her."
It seems that the rest of the people already have their own lives, but Licorice is still lying on the ground alone, no matter how I think about it, I feel sad.
Jiman was pregnant and it was not suitable for her to go to the grave, so the lamp wick went by herself, took some fruits and valuables, and walked to the place where the licorice was buried.
Two days later it was time for Ning Mingjie to marry Peng Xin, but there was someone sitting beside the tombstone. The weeds and fallen leaves around had been swept away. The man in the cloak brought a jug of wine, took a sip of the wine, dipped his fingers in the remaining wine on the ground, and wrote on the tombstone: "How much do you know about the flowers?"
Dim Wick pursed her lips and suddenly smiled.
She thought that except herself and her master, no one would remember the maid who died in the fire. It turned out that Ning Mingjie also remembered.
I still remember the silly woman who praised him for her good handwriting with a shy face. He also gave her coral beads, and said he was willing to welcome her through the door.
Deng Xin felt that Licorice should also be happy, at least in Ning Mingjie's heart, there will always be a corner that belongs to her.
Marquis Moyu officially assisted the government, and the fourth prince, who was only seven years old, began to be called the emperor, wearing a dragon crown, and officially began to rule from top to bottom.
Ning Yuxuan stood at the first position in the lower right corner of the emperor, listened to the words of the ministers, explained to the emperor how to deal with it, and then used the emperor's mouth to issue orders.
Ning Mingjie was appointed as the general of the town to command the military power, married the princess of Yuzhen, and made great achievements. Someone suggested to Mo Yuhou that Ning Mingjie should not have too much military power, even if he is a relative or brother, there will inevitably be a day when there will be conflicts.
But Ning Yuxuan didn't do anything, and said with a smile: "If Mingjie wants something, just come and get it. Yuxuan will never be stingy."
When Ning Mingjie heard this sentence from under the door, he laughed loudly, and he was even more loyal so far.
According to later history books, Marquis Mo Yu was a minister of Wang Zuo, who supported several generations of emperors without the slightest intention of committing any crimes. Ning Mingjie is even more loyal to the emperor, the military power in his hands could have been overthrown, but his loyalty in his life only obeys the emperor's orders.
Both of these two are legends in history, of course, that's a story.
Zhu Yurun got up nervously in the middle of the night and ran to Moyuhou's mansion, Qian Yingchen chased after him and hurriedly shouted: "Slow down!"
"It can't be slow, it can't be slow!" Zhu Yurun was missing one shoe: "Mr. Ji is about to give birth! Hurry up, the carriage will go faster!"
Qian Yingchen had no choice but to follow her to the Hou Mansion.
Ji Man gave birth today, and she was pregnant in October safely all the way. People from all walks of life came to congratulate her when they heard the news. Even if the baby hadn't been born yet, the wives of all the families at the gate of the Hou Mansion had already arrived.
In the middle of the night, the weather was cold, but the charcoal fire was burning in Ji Man's room. The midwife was so frightened by Zhu Yurun's and Dengxin's eyes that her hands trembled, and she asked Ji Man to comfort her: "Don't be nervous, take a deep breath first..."
Everyone was worried that the past would repeat itself, so they didn't dare to leave even half a step away. Due to the rules, Ning Yuxuan kept out of the delivery room, and was in a hurry.
"Master Hou." Mu Shuiqing was dizzy, and said helplessly, "Sit down and rest first."
"How can I rest?" Ning Yuxuan looked a little anxious, where did he have the slightest calm temperament in the court? As soon as he heard Jiman moaning in pain, his eyes were red: "I really can't go in?"
Gui Bai and Mu Shuiqing shook their heads together.
Now Gui Bai finally understands why Lord Hou shut himself up in the study last time when his wife gave birth, his uneasiness is too strong, and he can't hide it at all.
"ah-"
It turned out to be unexpectedly fast inside, just after hearing Ji Man screaming for a while, there was the sound of a baby crying.
Everyone outside breathed a sigh of relief, Qian Yingchen hurriedly said, "Congratulations, Lord Hou."
Mo Yuhou was dumbfounded, he stood motionless as if his whole body was cut off, and asked after a long time, "Did you give birth?"
The midwife came out with the baby in her arms, a little frustrated, but she still smiled and said, "Go back to Lord Hou, Madam gave birth to a girl."
It's really unlucky, I thought that if I delivered a boy, I would get more rewards!
"Girl?" Ning Yuxuan reached out and took the child over, staring at her blankly. The child who didn't open his eyes opened his mouth and cried, not as quiet as her brother, but in his arms, the child suddenly stopped crying, and his eyes rolled under his eyelids, as if he really wanted to open his eyes and see him .
