Yuchen had dinner and took the maid-in-law to walk in the garden. , In the yard, Yuchen met the two sisters of the Yu family.
The two saluted Yuchen, and Dayu smiled and said, "Sister, come for a walk too? Yes, the prince has stayed with Mrs. Xiang for some time recently, and some of my sister is free." This sentence is a naked sarcasm. .
Yuchen didn't seem to understand the words of Dayu, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Xiang is smart and lovely, and it is normal for the prince to like it." Yan Wushuang pets Madam Xiang again, and that woman can't threaten her status.
Dayu's face was a bit ugly: "I hope my sister can always be so generous and generous." To say that Mrs. Xiang is the most jealous, it is Dayu's.
Yuchen smiled and said; "Naturally." Yuchen didn't have water chestnuts, but rarely showed them.
At night, Yuchen scattered a head of blue silk. Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, Yu Chen touched her face and said: "Mother, do you think I am old?" If Yan Wushuang dotes on Madam Xiang and doesn't care at all, that's a fake.
Madam Gui took the ivory comb and walked forward with a smile and said, "The mother is old wherever she is, and she's the same as before, so beautiful that she can't move her eyes."
Yuchen laughed and said, "I'm already 30, how can I compare it to when he was 16 or 7 years old." After speaking, Yu Chen showed a bitter face and said, "I don't know if it's because of his age. , I always think of the past, especially when I was a child in the Guogong Mansion. Last night I also dreamed of my grandmother!" The ten years in the Guogong Mansion were the happiest day in her life.
Grandma Gui gave her hand, and soon said with a smile: "What did the lady dream about the old lady?"
Yuchen shook her head and said, "I don't remember, but my grandmother is still so loving." After that, Yuchen said in a melancholy voice: "When my grandmother was alive, I couldn't be filial to her." This is what she regrets last. thing.
Madam Gui said with relief: "At that time, the empress couldn't help herself. The old lady loved her so much, and she would definitely not be blamed." A woman married into a royal family would go home wherever she wanted to. Not to mention that Concubine Song was still staring at her master at that time! At that time, no mistake could be made.
Yuchen sighed quietly and said: "Grandma's greatest wish is to revitalize the Han family and return the Han family to its former glory. Unfortunately, grandmother never saw the Han family flourish."
Grandma Gui said, "Manny, don't think so much."
Yuchen couldn’t help but think: “Big brother and second brother are in the northwest, and the Han family is also one of the best in the northwest. Grandmother’s hope, the eldest brother is half done.” Han Jianming was a rebellious person to the court, and Yuxi was only entrenched in the northwest.
Mother Gui thought for a while and said: "Now Shanxi, Henan, Hubei and other places are fighting. Once their defenses are breached, the Northwest will not be protected." When the Northwest falls, Yun Qing and Han Yuxi will lose their lives. The future still has to rely on three bedrooms.
Yu Chen shook his head slightly and said, "It's so easy. Yu Baojia and the prince are not at all one mind. The 200,000 army sent by the court alone wants to capture several provinces in Shanxi. That is a idiot." After a pause, Yu Chen said. "And once we lose the battle ahead and let Yun Qing occupy the south of the Yangtze River, the capital will be in danger." Once they are allowed to occupy Jiangnan, Yuxi's next goal will be the capital.
Mother Gui's heart trembled, and she quickly calmed down and said: "The empress is too worried. The military power of Jiangnan lies in Baojia's hands. Even if it is lost, it has nothing to do with the prince. But the soldiers in Hebei and Shandong are the confidants of the prince. The prince’s ability, Yun Qing wanted to break into the capital is wishful thinking.” Regarding Yan Wushuang, Grandma Gui is still very confident.
Yuchen didn't believe in Yan Wushuang either, but many things were not what people thought. Yu Chen sighed and said, "No one knows what will happen in the future. In those days, who could have expected Yuxi and Yun Qing to have today?" The prince didn't put Yun Qing in his eyes before, but Now Yun Qing is shoulder to shoulder with his own prince. Therefore, no one can guarantee what the future will be like.
At this moment, a crisp voice sounded outside: "Mother, why bother with others' aspirations to extinguish your prestige." After speaking, A Bao came to Yu Chen like a gust of wind.
Yuchen frowned and said, "How many times have I told you that a girl's house should look like a girl's house."
A Bao sat on a chair, put his riding whip on the table beside him, and said, "Mother, if everything is followed by the rules, it would be very tiring." In fact, A Bao has learned the rules very well. Compared with Zaozao, that It's definitely a world.
Yuchen knew that it would be useless to say more, and ordered the maid to prepare water. A Bao went to practice this afternoon and was sweating all over, so he must wash well.
A Bao leaned on the chair and said, "Mother, you can't say such dejected words anymore. Dad will be upset when you hear it." Although A Bao is a little arrogant, he is very clever and knows how to please Yan Wushuang.
Yu Chen said, "I see." Yu Chen was unprepared for Abao, so she didn't know when Abao walked into the room. But Yan Wushuang is different, not to mention that Yan Wushuang will tell her every time she comes to the maid, even if no one tells her, she can still hear Yan Wushuang's footsteps.
After thinking about it, A Bao couldn't help but curiosity, and asked, "Mother, what kind of person is Han Yuxi?" Because Yuxi is a rebel to the court, A Bao called by his name and no one picked it. wrong.
Yuchen was a little surprised, and asked, "How come you suddenly asked about this?"
A Bao said: "Many people say she is amazing, I just want to know how amazing she is. Mother, you grew up with her, and no one knows her better than you, right? Tell me about her. Thing?"
Yu Chen shook his head and said: "When she was a child, apart from reading books and being good at embroidery, she had nothing outstanding." Among the ladies in the capital, Yuxi can only be regarded as middle-to-high-end in both looks and talents, not a top task.
A Bao didn't believe it, "Really?"
Yuchen sighed faintly and said, "What did your mother lie to you. In fact, not only your mother, but your great-grandmother, don't even know that your fourth aunt is so invisible."
A Bao curled his lips and said, "Mother, she is a rebel, and even our enemy, how can she still be called Siyi?" Calling her by her name is already regarded as respecting her.
Yuchen was silent and said, "No matter what, she is the mother's own sister, this can never be changed."
A Bao shrugged and said, "How do you think it's your mother's business? Anyway, I won't recognize this fourth aunt." These thoughts were instilled by Yan Wushuang, and Yuchen couldn't correct it.
At this moment, a sonorous footstep sounded outside. Yuchen was a little surprised, but he stood up quickly and bowed to the person who came in: "Lord."
Yan Wushuang nodded, and said to A Bao, "Don't practice until so late in the future." He wouldn't be like Yun Qing, raising his daughter into a man-in-law. Yan Wushuang asked Abao to practice martial arts because she thought she could protect herself with martial arts, but she didn't want her to lead soldiers to fight in the future.
A Bao hugged Yan Wushuang's arm with a smile and said, "Father, I forgot the time today, not next time."
Yan Wushuang said, "I have already told Master Rong that I will not be able to teach any more when the time comes." It means that even if A Bao wants to extend the time next time, he can't.
A Bao muttered, "I see."
Shixiang walked in lightly and said: "The lord, the empress, the princess, the water is ready." Abao is very particular, and must put fresh petals in the bath, but Abao's favorite is to use rose petals. If not, Jasmine and Chrysanthemum can barely make do. Fortunately, the palace has a large greenhouse, which can supply A Bao's needs. But this expenditure alone is not a small sum.
A Bao let go of Yan Wushuang's hand and said, "Father, mother, I'm going to take a bath." After Yan Wushuang nodded, she went out.
Yuchen asked with a look of concern: "Master, is your complexion so bad, isn't your body uncomfortable?"
It's strange to be comfortable. Yan Wushuang has been thinking about Yun Qing's purpose for taking his troops to Lanyang these days. But I can't figure out how to think about it. Feeling irritable, he came to Yuchen's side as he walked.
Yan Wushuang said, "There have been too many things recently, and I'm a little tired." His mind was confused, and he didn't have a clue.
Yuchen didn't ask too much, because after asking Yan Wushuang, he wouldn't say too much: "Why don't your concubine play a piece for the prince?"
In the past few years, Yuchen has focused on piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, except for serving Yan Wushuang and taking care of the two children. Up to now, her attainments in piano art have reached the level of a master.
Yuchen played the famous song "Yangchun Baixue". As long as she played the piano, Yuchen would devote herself fully, and when she finished playing, she found that Yan Wushuang was asleep.
Yuchen didn't wake him up either, but took a blanket and put it on him. But Yan Wushuang was very alert and woke up before Yu Chen approached.
Looking at the murderous intent in Yan Wushuang's eyes, Yu Chen really felt that Yan Wushuang was going to kill her first.
When Yan Wushuang got up, he realized that his reaction was a little overdone, and said with a cold face, "You should rest early!" Without looking back, he strode out.
Seeing Yuchen motionless, Mother Gui hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Manny, what's the matter with you?"
Yuchen was so scared that he froze just now, and after recovering, he said to Grandma Gui: "Prepare water."
Grandma Gui was taken aback, and said, "Manny, you have already bathed just now."
Yuchen's voice eased a lot: "Go get some water!" She couldn't tell Mother Gui, she was so frightened that she couldn't sleep without taking a shower.
That night, Yuchen had a nightmare, dreaming that he was strangled to death by Yan Wushuang. When he woke up, Yuchen's forehead was all sweaty.
Seeing Yuchen sitting on the bed in a daze, Grandma Gui said with some worry: "Niang, it's just a nightmare. Dreams and reality are the opposite."
Yu Chen said, "I hope!" That's what Yuchen said, but Yuchen couldn't sleep anymore.
Compared to Yuchen's ease and ease, Yuxi wished to have twenty-four hours a day. Every time there is a war, everyone in the rear is very busy.
Xu Wu walked into the study, lowered his voice and said to Yuxi: "Wang Hao, Cui Mo has passed Wonju."
Yuxi nodded and asked, "Isn't anyone spotted?"
Xu Wu said: "The routes they travel are all pre-made by Yun Qing and will not be disclosed."
Yuxi said: "You can't take it lightly, you must keep an eye on those meticulous work, and immediately solve it if there is something wrong." Once the news leaks that Yun Qing's plan cannot be successful, then this dispatch of troops may have to return without success.
Xu Wu said: "Wang Hao, don't worry, our people have not relaxed for a moment." Before the matter was unsuccessful, no one dared to take it lightly.
Every time a battle is fought, many checkpoints are set up, and the road to the capital is also blocked. Because this time, as usual, Yan Wushuang has not aroused suspicion so far.
Yu Xi said with a loud voice, "According to time, the prince should attack Caozhou in these two days." Attacking Caozhou is only the first step, and the next step is the key.
Xu Wu nodded and said, "It should be in these two days."
Outside Xu Daniu raised his voice and said: "Wang Hao, Master Meng, please see me." Because now is the combat period, the stability of the rear is the top priority. Therefore, Meng Fangjun frequently enters and exits the Pingxi Palace these days.
When Xu Wu went out, he looked at Yuxi and said, "Princess, you have to take care of your health." It was also because he saw the bloodshot eyes in Yuxi's eyes that he said so.
Having been with Xu Wu for so many years, Yuxi treats him as his own. Yuxi shook his head and said: "I have been hanging my heart these days, and I can't sleep well." In fact, Yuxi has three hours of bedtime every night and a three-quarter hour nap at noon, which is enough for normal people. But after Yuxi learned of Yun Qing's plan, she has been worried for the past few days, which has caused poor sleep.
Xu Wu has been with Yuxi for so many years, and he also knows that Yuxi is worried about Yun Qing's plan. Xu Wu said: "Wang Hao, we will definitely succeed." He would not say frustrated words, because it is unlucky.
Yuxi shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's not that I don't worry, I don't worry. It's because I can't bear it." The main reason is that Yun Qing's plan is too risky, and if it fails, it will affect the entire battle. Of course, if the plan is successful, they will get twice the result with half the effort to attack Jiangnan.
Xu Wu laughed: "The princess is too self-effacing." In this world, Xu Wu felt that she could no longer find a woman who could bear more than Yuxi.
Yuxi was so busy that day before returning home. As soon as I entered the room, I saw a person lying on the bed.
When he walked to the bed, Yuxi asked, "You girl, why did you run into my mother's bed?" Since Zaozao moved out, he has never returned to the main courtyard to sleep.
Zaozao opened his eyes and said, "Mother, you are so amazing, you know that I am not asleep?" After speaking, he sat up.
Yuxi smiled and said, "I don't know what kind of mother you are." Zaozao snored when she sleeps at night because she is too tired to practice daily exercises. Fortunately, her voice is not loud.
Zaozao said with a smile, "I can't hide anything from my mother. Mother, Uncle Xu said that you are worried about your father not sleeping well these days. Mother, I will accompany you to sleep at night, and you will be able to sleep well. ."
The daughter is full of filial piety, and Yuxi will naturally not refuse. What Yuxi didn't expect was that the child might be around to make her feel at ease. She really fell asleep this night. And still slept until the end of the next day.
Opening his eyes and looking at the empty space beside him, Yuxi asked, "Where is the great princess?"
Meilan smiled and said, "The princess got up to practice exercises before dawn." Yuxi slept well, and she was happy watching it.
Starting from this day, Zaozao will go to the main courtyard to sleep every night. Yuxi's sleep afterwards also returned to normal.
