Chapter 223 Wives and Concubines Fight
Han Jianming followed Qiu into the back room, and told all the women and maids to go down, telling Qiu that he was going to send Lu Xiu to Yucheng.
Qiu said: "Have you thought of a proper solution?" She had already agreed to this matter, but she just wanted to be unknown and afraid of being suspected, so she kept silent. I didn't say it before, but now that the emperor issued an imperial decree to take the family members of military officers above the third rank back to Beijing, it would be too eye-catching for Mrs. Lu to go to Yucheng.
Han Jianming nodded and said, "I'll write a letter to Yuxi, asking Jianye to pretend to be seriously injured, and then let Mrs. Lu take the child to the northwest to visit." When we arrive in Yucheng, it will be the world of Yunqing and Yuxi, and it will fall Don't worry anymore.
The beads in Qiu's hand were spinning very quickly, and after a while, he asked, "Is the situation already this dangerous?"
Han Jianming nodded and said, "Marshal Yan's youngest son, Yan Wushuang, is not dead yet. This time, Liaodong Marshal Tong Chunlin was assassinated by him. Mother, Yan Wushuang is an extremely smart man who has been dormant for more than ten years. Now that he has shot this time, There will definitely be a big storm.”
Qiu was very surprised, and said: "Didn't you say that the people of the Yan family are all dead?" The people of the Song family didn't even let Yun Qing go, how could they let the people of the Yan family go.
Han Jianming shook his head and said, "Yan Wushuang has survived, and has been hiding in Liaodong." It must be said that Yan Wushuang is also a talent, not only survived in such a difficult and dangerous environment, but also formed a huge force.
Qiu recalled the previous rumors and asked, "Is the death of Marshal Yan and the destruction of Tongcheng really related to the Song family?"
Han Jianming was silent for a while, and said, "It was the Song family who colluded with the Donghu people. The emperor also had a part in this matter."
Qiu stood up from the stool in shock, and said, "What did you say? The Song family colluded with the emperor of the Donghu people and also participated in it?" Seeing Han Jianming nodding, Qiu sat back on the stool and said, "These people, Everyone deserves to go to the 18th level of hell." What happened in Tongcheng back then caused more than 100,000 deaths and injuries. Bearing so many sins, the eighteen levels of hell are all cheap for them.
Han Jianming said: "Mom, my letter has been monitored, so it's best for you to tell Yuxi about this matter." Han Jianming was afraid that Yan Wushuang would collude with the Donghu people for hatred, and then lead troops into the capital . At that time, he will definitely kill the emperor and the members of the Song family, and the emperor's capital will definitely be in chaos for a while. Of course, this was Han Jianming's worst plan.
Qiu took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll write it right away." Yucheng has at least 100,000 troops, which is safer than Beijing.
The things were delivered to Prince Jing's Mansion the next morning, and Mrs. Ye delivered them in person. Ye Shi said to Yuchen: "My mother-in-law originally prepared more than ten boxes. The Duke said that the journey is far away and too many things are inconvenient, so I reduced them to these few boxes."
Yuchen said with a smile: "The northwest is relatively peaceful now, so it doesn't matter if you have more things. I also prepared more than ten boxes of things for Yuxi and Zaozao." Before that, she also considered that the road was not peaceful, so she didn't To send things to the northwest, I only sent some light and easy-to-carry gifts.
When Ye Shi heard Yuchen calling Zao Zao's nickname so familiarly, she felt a little strange, but she didn't show it on the surface: "Mother keeps saying that Zao Zao is almost one year old and she hasn't seen her yet!" After a pause, Mrs. Ye laughed again, and said: "Third sister doesn't know. Mother heard that the fourth brother-in-law is tall, mighty and strong, so when she knew that Zao Zao looked like the fourth brother-in-law, she was very worried." What, more is not expensive. The Qiu family has many grandchildren, but there is only one granddaughter, jujube, and she has never seen her before, so she often talks about it.
Yuchen also laughed when he heard it, and said: "Auntie is so worried. This girl has changed a lot, and she will definitely become more and more beautiful when she grows up. But I saw Yuxi said in the letter that the little girl Zaozao Very active and skinny."
Ye Shi smiled, and said: "Not only that, I heard that the legs and feet are still very strong, and the child who is only one year old still hurts badly after being kicked by her."
The aunt and sister-in-law talked for a long time, and it was almost noon that Mrs. Ye left and went back. After leaving Prince Jing's Mansion, Ah Ling, the maid beside Ye Shi, couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect that the relationship between the third aunt and the fourth aunt is still so good.
"
Mrs. Ye was not surprised, and said: "The love that has been with each other day and night for more than ten years will not dissipate even if you get married." Although Yuxi fell out with Sanfang, she did not fall out with Yuchen. Moreover, Yuchen is now Princess Jing, and it is always beneficial and harmless to maintain a friendly relationship.
Yuchen looked at the six big boxes in the room and sighed softly. In the past two years, Yuxi has frequently corresponded with the Qiu family, and often sent gifts to the capital, but neither a letter nor a box of gifts was sent to Jinyu Alley. Yuxi really wanted to sever ties with Sanfang.
Nanny Gui has always known what is on Yuchen's mind, but it's just that she doesn't like to intervene in such matters. Immediately changed the subject, and said: "Your Majesty, the filial piety will be done in January. The fifth girl's marriage will still need the help of someone from the big house." Her precious son, Yu Rong is now in charge of the third room. But no matter how capable a girl's family is, Yurong can't make arrangements for her own marriage. So in the end, I have to bother the big house. Of course, the Qiu family will definitely not be able to invite them, but they can ask the Ye family for help.
Yuchen said: "This matter has to be discussed with my father." Even if the sister-in-law is to be asked to help, her father has to talk to the big brother. As a married woman, she said that even if the eldest brother and sister-in-law agreed because of her affection, they would be unhappy in their hearts.
Nanny Gui said: "Once the filial piety is achieved, the old man will become an official." King Jing is so powerful now, the old man must rely on King Jing to become an official.
Yuchen frowned, and said: "I will tell the prince when I find a chance." This matter has to be planned early, otherwise the time is too short, and there will be nothing left.
The day after the things were sent out of the capital, the Duke's Mansion received a letter from Yuxi from Yucheng. After reading the letter, Qiu Shi smiled all over her face and said, "Yuxi is pregnant again." She was pregnant again a few months after weaning, which is enough to show the love between husband and wife.
Mrs. Ye was a little envious, and said: "Fourth sister is really lucky." Regardless of whether the fetus is male or female, being able to conceive so quickly means that Yuxi is very fertile. Unlike her, who took medicine for several years before she had a daughter, and she hasn't made any progress until now. Although Brother Chang was raised by Ye Shi's side, Ye Shi still wanted to have a biological child and had been taking medicine for the past few years.
Qiu Shi said: "It's a pity that we got the news late, otherwise we would have sent more nutritious things to the northwest." Qiu Shi very much hoped that Yuxi's birth would be a son, and her status would be firm after giving birth to a son.
Han Jianming read Yuxi's letter specially written to him, and fell into deep thought after reading it. Yuxi said in the letter that she felt that the weather last winter was abnormal, and she was very worried that there would be natural disasters. For this reason, she specifically asked those old farmers who had accumulated many years. People went to Jiangnan and Taiyuan to buy grain. At the end of the letter, Yuxi reminded Han Jianming to let him prevent drought, flood and insect disasters.
Han Jianming thought about it, called the big housekeeper, and said, "Buy more food for storage." In fact, even if there is a natural disaster, no matter how tight the food is, the Duke's Mansion is not worried about running out of food. However, since you have received this letter from Yuxi, you have to make a show for those who secretly read the letter.
The big housekeeper didn't know why, so he said, "My lord, the summer harvest is coming soon, and it will be more cost-effective to buy grain in the summer." The price of grain before the summer harvest is 20 to 30 percent higher than that after the summer harvest. It is not cost-effective to buy large quantities now.
Han Jianming said: "Go buy it now, first buy two thousand taels of grain." There are also hundreds of people in the Duke's Mansion, and the grain of two thousand taels of silver is not too much.
Seeing this, the big butler didn't dare to ask any more questions, and bowed his head in response: "Okay."
Putting down the letter in his hand, Han Jianming said in a low voice: "Just say something that is useless, and don't say a word that is useful." Although he said so, Han Jianming was not angry. Yuxi's situation is very dangerous, so be cautious. Some are good too.
Going back to the backyard for dinner at night, seeing Qiu's face full of smiles, Han Jianming asked, "Mother, what's the happy event?" Hearing that Yuxi was pregnant, Han Jianming said with a smile: "This girl..." After saying so A lot of words, but in the end such a big happy event was not told to him.
Qiu said with a smile: "Telling me is not the same as telling you." Anyway, as long as one person knows, everyone will know.
After finishing speaking, Qiu couldn't help but said: "I just hope that Yuxi can live in peace in the future, and I won't ask for anything else." Don't make any more accidents, otherwise she really can't stand it.
Hearing this, Han Jianming sighed slightly. Yuxi's current situation is very dangerous, and it is impossible for her to be peaceful. It's just that he will definitely not tell Qiu Shi about this, so as not to worry Qiu Shi.
After dinner, Han Jianming talked with Qiu Shi before going back to the front yard. On the way, she meets Shui Ping, Aunt Jia's maid.
Han Jianming saw the maid in a hurry, and immediately asked the people around her to stop her, and asked, "Why are you so flustered?"
Shui Ping hurriedly said: "The fourth young master is sick, and my aunt is very worried. I want to ask my wife to find a doctor for the fourth young master?" , all the servants call him the Fourth Young Master.
Hearing the request, Han Jianming frowned, and said to his follower, "I've got the right card and invite Imperial Physician Le to come over." Imperial Physician Le is an authority in pediatrics.
It was not until I arrived at the Osmanthus Garden that I knew I had a fever. Han Jianming said with a cold face, "How do you take care of the child?" Brother Chang was raised under Ye's knees and was always healthy, but Jiahe often had a fever and fell ill. In fact, it is common for children to be weak and sick, but with Brother Chang for comparison, it seems that Aunt Jia is very careless.
When Aunt Jia heard Han Jianming's accusation, her eyes turned red: "It's my concubine's fault, my concubine didn't take good care of the fourth young master." The injury was on her body, and the pain was on her mother's heart. When her son was sick, the most uncomfortable thing was Aunt Jia, the mother.
Han Jianming said: "I've sent someone to invite the imperial physician, let the imperial physician take a good look at it this time." I hope this time he can be cured and he will not get sick again.
When Aunt Jia heard this, she was overjoyed: "Thank you, Lord Guo." Although the two had a son, they didn't have any feelings for each other. R8
