In the days that followed, Fu Yunhe and Mrs. Fu were busy every day, shopping extensively in Luoyue City, arranging the wedding room, and preparing the banquet. The mother and son happily prepared for the wedding, so busy that they didn't touch the ground.
In comparison, Lin's house is much thinner, only Lin Jingchen, Han Qixia, a little maid and a lady in charge of sweeping live in it. Many things have to be handled by Han Qixia, the bride who is about to get married, so Nangong Yue I often go to Lin's house to help.
In fact, the wedding date of Fu Yunhe and Han Qixia had already been set as early as the year before last, and most of the wedding matters were in full swing. Han Qixia's dowry was prepared by Lin Jingchen according to the rules of the Lin family girls, and most of Nangong Yue's Sometimes it's just to join in the fun.
Under Fu Yunhe and Mrs. Fu's intentional showing off, within a few days, everyone in Luoyue City knew that the eldest concubine's cousin was about to get married, and it was General Fu who married. All the houses sent congratulatory gifts to Lin's house, boxes and boxes of congratulatory gifts came one after another They were carried into Lin's house without stopping, and the whole alley was bustling with activity.
Early in the morning of this day, Lin's residence ushered in an unexpected guest - Qu Jiayue, the princess of Mingyue who was once married to Xiye.
A little maid was leading the way in front of Qu Jiayue. From a distance, Qu Jiayue saw an elegant middle-aged woman in the main room getting up to say goodbye. The two didn't know each other, so they just nodded to each other as a compliment.
As soon as she entered the room, Qu Jiayue saw several brocade boxes on the side, full of silk and satin, gold, silver and jade decorations, so gorgeous that it almost dazzled the eye, it must have been a congratulatory gift from the woman just now.
Qu Jiayue only took a glance, then looked away calmly, and continued to walk forward.
Not seen for many years, Qu Jiayue, who is only in her twenties, seems to be four or five years older than her actual age. She is wearing a smoky blue brocade beige with dark patterns and a neat bun. Since then, it has been much simpler in the king.
Seeing Qu Jiayue's sudden visit, Han Qixia was a little surprised, and Qu Jiayue was also a little surprised. She didn't expect Nangong Yue to be there.
That's right, Han Qixia and Nangong Yue had always been close when they were in the capital.
In just over six years, the three of them have changed, both in appearance and fate
Qu Jiayue's eyes flashed, and she greeted the two women in front of her as if nothing had happened: "Shizi Concubine, Cousin Xia."
Nangong Yue just nodded slightly, and Han Qixia said politely: "Cousin Mingyue, please sit down." She ordered the little maid to serve tea.
After Qu Jiayue sat down politely, she said with a smile: "Cousin Xia, I only found out that you are also in Luoyue City these few days, and you should have come to visit. I heard that two days later it was the great joy of Cousin and Cousin He Today, I came here specially to congratulate my cousin."
Before his father, Marquis Pingyang, left Luoyue City, he told her a lot of things about southern Xinjiang, including Han Qixia's experience over the years. Abandoning the dignity brought by the surname "Han" was an extremely stupid act, but she never thought that Han Qixia would have a chance to reverse her fate and marry Fu Yunhe as Lin Jingchen's granddaughter, regaining her honor!
Looking at the ending of the three princesses now, I have to say that Han Qixia's luck is really good.
"Thank you, Cousin Mingyue." Han Qixia smiled lightly, "Cousin, please try this herbal tea. I personally brewed it. It can replenish blood, nourish energy and soothe the nerves."
Qu Jiayue responded with a smile, and gracefully picked up the teacup filled with medicinal fragrance, half-lidded her eyes, hiding a trace of jealousy that only she knew.
Pingping is a daughter of the clan. Han Qixia, who abandoned her family and surname and fled to southern Xinjiang, is now very beautiful, but she has fallen to this point
Thinking about it, Qu Jiayue felt a strong bitterness in her heart, and the plain hand holding the teacup slightly exerted force. Countless images of these years flashed in her mind, remembering that she was married to the old king Xiye more than six years ago, and then the old king passed away. Now, she married his son Gao Mihao according to Xiye's tradition. Qu Jiayue in her prime was no exception.
Serving the father and son together, Qu Jiayue was so ashamed that she was even ready to hang herself, but Bai Ling broke at the last moment and she survived. After crying a lot, she realized that it is better to die than to live. Since God let her live, she must work hard to live better than anyone else, so she exhausted her energy in fighting for favor in the harem, finally It was easy to win the favor of Xiye King Gao Mihe, was made a concubine, and had a place in the harem. Unexpectedly—
Xiye actually broke the country!
Moreover, it was broken by Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai's troops.
The King of the West Night died, and she became a helpless duckweed again
Qu Jiayue was sluggish and depressed for a while, only feeling that her future was bleak, but under the comfort of the maid who was close to her, she cheered up again.
She is in Xiye, not Dayu Central Plains.
Throughout the history of the Central Plains, at the moment when the former dynasty fell, the concubines in the harem were lucky to have a glass of poisoned wine and a white silk, and what was even more frightening was to become lowly military prostitutes, but Xiye was different!
According to Xiye's tradition, if the new king ascends the throne, he must inherit everything from the old king, including wives and concubines. Whether it is Xiao Yi or Guan Yubai, if they want to gain a foothold in Xiye and appease people's hearts, they will be able to secure their place in Xiye. , you must abide by the tradition of Xiye.
As far as Qu Jiayue has served the father and son of King Xiye anyway, she has nothing to worry about, marrying either Xiao Yi or Guan Yubai can change her fate! Not only she thinks this way, other concubines also have such plans, even the tribes that those concubines belong to—Qu Jiayue knows that everyone wants to use this opportunity to win over Xiao Yi or Guan Yubai, to do something for themselves and tribes fighting for the greater good.
However, I didn't expect that neither Xiao Yi nor Guan Yubai would be moved. Even though the Xiye clan sent envoys to the capital to persuade them, Xiao Yi and Guan Yubai still remained unmoved, and put on a "follow me who will prosper" With the arrogance of those who rebel against me, Qu Jiayue's last hope has come to naught
Afterwards, Queen Xiye and other concubines in the palace were sent to the palace in the eastern suburbs, and she would also be sent back to Dayu as a married princess—if she was really sent back to Dayu, she had served King Xiye and his son. People, in Dayu, must be despised and cast aside by the world, I am afraid that in this life they will meet the ancient Buddha with blue lanterns, and they will die in this life.
Just when she was feeling uneasy, fate actually treated her a little bit kindly.
It turned out that her father, Marquis Pingyang, secretly took refuge in Xiao Yi, and even brought her to benefit, so he was sent to southern Xinjiang instead of going back to Dayu.
Until the moment when she arrived at Luoyue City and saw her father, Qu Jiayue finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that she had once again walked out of a desperate situation, but in her heart, there was always a trace of unwillingness.
She was originally the proud daughter of the king's capital, if she wasn't the second princess, how could she have come to this point!
But the second princess was already dead, even if she wanted to take revenge, there was no one to find her!
After coming to Luoyue City, Qu Jiayue has been suppressing the unwillingness in her heart, but today when she saw Han Qixia and Nangong Yue, that unwillingness sprouted again and grew vigorously:
Why is Xiao Yi different from others
Since he has occupied Xiye, why is he so arrogant that he doesn't follow Xiye's tradition, but only guards Nangong Yue! Why did Nangong Yue have such luck? !
Unwillingness turned into jealousy, spreading wildly in Qu Jiayue's heart, making her heart agitated so much that she could hardly control herself.
She is jealous of Han Qixia, and even more jealous of Nangong Yue who is seven months pregnant and has her eldest son by her side!
At that time, Nangong Yue was just a daughter of a mere sixth-rank cabinet attendant in the capital, but now she has become the most honorable woman in southern Xinjiang, and what if she has the title of princess
In name only, she is nothing in southern Xinjiang, she can only humblely bow down to Nangong Yue!
No matter how unwilling and jealous she was, she dared not show the slightest bit.
Today is not what it used to be, after so many years in Xiye, she has long since lost her arrogance and capriciousness, and her life is not as good as others'. If she wants to live a bright and aboveboard life, she must plan well for herself!
Xiao Yi already had a regular wife, and Qu Jiayue definitely didn't want to be a concubine anymore, she wanted to find another way out for herself in this southern border.
Now that her father has gone to Xiye to take on important tasks, as long as her father can be reused by Xiao Yi, then with her appearance, how difficult is it to remarry? ! For example, the young heroes in southern Xinjiang, such as some heavy generals who are going to continue, such as An Yihou
An Yihou Guan Yubai is young and promising. Because of the collapse of the official family, he has not married for many years. Now that the official family has avenged his revenge, Guan Yubai should also consider starting a family to continue the incense for the official family, right
If she can marry Guan Yubai, then even Nangong Yue has to give her some face!
Women are valued by their fathers, and wives are valued by their husbands.
She still has a chance!
Thinking about it, Qu Jiayue's heart was burning hot and her heart was surging.
She put down the teacup slowly, with an affectionate smile on her face, and said, "Cousin Xia, your herbal tea is really well prepared, don't you think so, Shizifei?"
Nangong Yue praised "Sister Xia's craftsmanship has always been good", and didn't intend to talk too much with Qu Jiayue. Back then in the capital, Nangong Yue and Qu Jiayue were not on good terms. Although they don't plan to settle their old grievances with her now, they also don't want to have too much to do with her.
Qu Jiayue didn't care about Nangong Yue's indifference, she still had a smile on her lips. Since she wanted to live in southern Xinjiang, she naturally couldn't offend Nangong Yue, not only that, she also had to please these two.
Qu Jiayue smiled unabated, and said again: "Cousin Xia, you are going to get married soon, you must be busy these few days, I will not bother you anymore. When you are free, I will come to you to learn how to make this herbal tea ?”
"Cousin Mingyue, if you like it, I'll give you some more and write you a prescription. This herbal tea is very good." Han Qixia said with a smile, and she really asked the maid to fetch a few cans of herbal tea Come.
The smile on the corner of Qu Jiayue's mouth almost didn't falter, she didn't want to learn how to make herbal tea, but she was just looking for an excuse to keep in touch with Han Qixia more in the future.
Although she suffered from a soft nail, Qu Jiayue did not become angry because of it, and continued to greet Han Qixia and Nangong Yue as if nothing had happened, complimenting each other without any trace.
She used to disdain to do these things, but after so many years in the West Night Harem, she, Qu Jiayue, will be able to please people!
The three of them were talking politely, and after exchanging pleasantries for a while, Qu Jiayue finally said goodbye tactfully.
Huamei personally led Qu Jiayue out, only Nangong Yue and Han Qixia were left in the room.
Han Qixia said with some regret: "Yue'er, she has changed into a girl who was so proud in the capital, and now she has learned to compromise" She has learned to lower her figure and learn to please.
Han Qixia can imagine that Qu Jiayue must have had an extremely difficult life in the past six years. She is far away in a foreign country and deep in the harem.
Nangong Yue took a sip of the warm herbal tea, her eyes were as clear as a spring, and said: "Avoid war, fear war, don't think about strengthening the country, but relying on a woman to beg for mercy from the barbarians, is it the right way!"
Thinking of the deceased Emperor Dayu, Nangong Yue still felt a little complicated. To her, he was a loving elder; but as a monarch, he did not fulfill his duty!
If it was Xiao Yi, who would want their daughter to marry each other, and keep the other party until they are beaten, they will never be able to rise again in this life!
Thinking of her A Yi, a smile flashed in Nangong Yue's pupils, shining like obsidian.
At this time, there was another movement from the direction of the gate, and it seemed that there was another visitor.
Immediately afterwards, Nangong Yue heard the excited shout of her little guy: "Mother! Mother!"
Before the people arrive, the voice arrives first.
Soon, I saw Xiao Yi in a purple robe striding towards here with little Xiao Yu in his arms. The little guy seemed to think his father was too slow, and excitedly waved his hands at his mother.
Xiao Yi brought Xiao Xiaoyu to pick up Nangong Yue in person, and the family of three got on the Zhulun carriage and headed towards Bixiaotang.
The little guy didn't see his mother for a long time, so he clung to his mother's arms intimately. For a while, he talked sweetly about missing his mother, and for a while he asked his younger sister with concern if he would listen to him today. He was like his mother's caring little padded jacket.
Nangong Yue couldn't help but kissed the little guy's cheek again and again, she was stunned for a moment, thinking of Bai Muxiao's son.
She frowned, remembering that Xiao Yi told her last time that both Ayimu and Bai Muxiao's son Han Weijun were given to Nanjiang as the new emperor's gesture of favor to Zhennan Palace.
"Ayi, where is that child now?" Nangong Yue asked casually.
Xiao Yi froze for a moment, and immediately understood that Nangong Yue was asking "which" child, who else but Han Weijun!
Now, Ayimu is being imprisoned in the dungeon of Bixiaotang, and Bai Muxiao's son Xiao Yi doesn't know what to do with it.
Xiao Yi frowned, and put the blame on Fu Yunhe.
This little crane is already such an adult, and he still can't figure it out, why bring such a two-year-old doll back? !
Xiao Yi curled his lips and said, "Throw it to Xiao Hezi!"
This was Fu Yunhe's own fault, and it was his own fault, so Xiao Yi threw the child to Fu Yunhe without any guilt, and let him take care of it.
Nangong Yue was startled, fell into Xiao Yi's generous chest, laughed out "puchi", and said, "Ah Yi, let's go and see him."
This is really Ah Yi's style of acting!
Although Han Weijun's biological father is Kui Lang and biological mother is Bai Muxiao, both of whom Xiao Yi detests, Xiao Yi has always had a clear distinction between grievances and grievances, and has never been a person who would vent his anger. It can also be seen from his attitude towards Xiao Luan and Xiao Fei One spot.
Xiao Yi never went against his good luck, he hugged his wife and children in his arms, and the husband followed suit.
So Zhu Lunche immediately turned around and headed towards Fu Zhai.
Their luck was good, Fu Yunhe was at home, and Mrs. Fu was also there. Mrs. Fu fell in love with Xiao Xiao Yu when she saw her, and she hugged Xiao Yu immediately, and she almost couldn't see the other people in her eyes.
When Nangong Yue asked about Han Weijun, Fu Yunhe's baby face suddenly collapsed, and he glanced at Xiao Yi pitifully, and then cried: "Sister-in-law, you see, I'm going to get married soon, and my child hasn't been seen yet, now I have to raise children for others!" Fu Yunhe took out a handkerchief from nowhere, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "I'm so stupid, so naive, why did I bring that little ancestor back! What do you say? Does the emperor think he is a hot potato and gave it to us on purpose?!"
Mrs. Fu silently gave her son a disgusted look, really wishing she could pick up a teacup and hit him. Hey, I will leave this stupid son to Sister Xia to worry about in the future!
While they were talking and joking, a woman soon came holding a two-year-old boy in a small blue dress.
The thin boy curled up in the arms of his mother-in-law. He had curly brown hair, deep eyebrows, and delicate facial features that could be called beautiful, but his whole body was like a frightened rabbit, trembling slightly. , with half-lidded eyes, completely daring not to look at the people in the room.
