Server SkyVids Link 1206 Version 512
Nangong Yue knew that Mrs. Fang must also understand, she smiled slightly, and added: "...Actually, it is not necessarily a bad thing for the prince to accept another girl from the Fang family. As the so-called 'the way of the emperor, the art of checks and balances' In fact, the same is true for the back house."
The fourth room of the Fang family married a girl to the king of Zhennan, so for the Fang family, the little Fang family would be "useless". Xiao Fang could not care about the other concubines of King Zhennan, but she could not care less about the girl of the Fang family. After all, her current status was taken from that girl of the Fang family. Although Xiao Fang is not favored, she still has the identity of the first wife. It is difficult for the new Fang family girl to overwhelm her for a while, and in the end, it will inevitably form a situation of mutual restraint...
In this way, Nangong Yue has no worries that Xiao Fang will regain the favor of King Zhennan in a short period of time. If her grandfather allowed her, she might really be able to go to Yanding City...
Nangong Yue had a hint of anticipation in her heart, and a blush appeared on her face.
She smiled slightly, looked at Mrs. Fang without blinking, and said, "Grandfather, Ayi and I picked you up to come to Luoyue City to take care of your body and let you take care of your life. You can live your life as you feel. Those you don't want to see, just don't see it. Don't force yourself for me, Yi, and the Fang family!"
Nangong Yue said these words from the bottom of her heart. Mrs. Fang had been lying on the bed for more than ten years, and had spent the most painful days without any dignity. Nangong Yue put herself in her shoes and thought about it, and felt heartache for his old man.
Now that he has finally survived the catastrophe and regained his life, being alive is already a great blessing for Xiao Yi and himself, why should he force himself to live because of some external nothingness So hard!
According to her, Mrs. Fang should be more flamboyant and wanton than young people now!
Grandpa Fang stared blankly at Nangong Yue for a while, and there was a mist in his turbid eyes.
He turned his head away and said with a smile, "Ayue, I suddenly feel hungry, why don't you accompany me to eat some food?"
Nangong Yue also smiled, and nodded hastily in response, and then Baihui immediately went to order the maids in Tingyu Pavilion to set the meal. Those maids secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking in their hearts: Concubine Shizi came out, and sure enough, she got the old man in one fell swoop.
Nangong Yue accompanied Mr. Fang to use some soup, eat some fruits and melons, and then pushed the old man for a walk to digest food before returning to his yard.
What I didn't expect was that as soon as she entered the yard, Thrush quickly stepped up and said, "Concubine Shizi, the eldest girl is here, and she is now in the Dongci room." After a pause, Thrush added, "The servant originally wanted to go. Listening to Yuge's report to the princess, but the eldest girl said that she has nothing to do, just wait for you here... But the slave girl looks at it, the eldest girl seems to have something on her mind."
Nangong Yue nodded and followed Thrush to the East Room.
Xiao Fei, who was wearing a light green treasure-like flower, tangled branches and silver silk pattern, was sitting on an armchair by the window, flipping through a book in his hand, but the focus of his eyes did not fall on him. In the book, I don't know what I'm thinking about.
"Sister Fei..."
It was Nangongyue who called out softly, and Xiao Fei suddenly came back to her senses. She hurriedly put down the book in her hand as if she had just woken up from a dream, stood up, and blessedly said, "Sister-in-law."
Nangong Yue took Xiao Fei's hand and sat down side by side, and the maid served tea and fruit snacks for both masters.
"Sister Fei," Nangong Yue said with a smile, "Didn't you say that you should go to the piano shop in the afternoon to see the piano? Are you satisfied with that piano?" Xiao Fei heard that the owner of the piano shop had acquired a new famous piano in the morning, and immediately couldn't stand it anymore. , After lunch, I hurried out of the house to see the piano.
Xiao Fei was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered the matter of the qin, with a hint of shyness on her face, and said, "I didn't see that qin..." She hesitated for a moment, but said slowly, "Sister-in-law, I happened to hear someone talking about Miss Zhou in the piano shop."
Xiao Fei's eyes darkened slightly, thinking of the contemptuous tone of the girls in the piano shop, saying that Zhou Roujia was shameless to hug Yunyun to the second son of Xiao, and even other girls went to pick up the conversation, saying one by one Mouth flew, as if I had seen it with my own eyes.
It was only a few days away from the father's birthday banquet, and the story of the second brother and Zhou Da's daughter had been rumored. It is estimated that many mansions in Luo Yue City already knew about this!
A woman's name is like a piece of white paper, once it gets stained with ink, it can't be washed off...
Xiao Fei clenched the book in his hand, feeling a little complicated for a while, with sympathy and pity.
"Sister-in-law," she couldn't help but ask Nangong Yue in a low voice, "Miss Zhou... What will happen to her?"
In fact, Xiao Fei's question is not complete. The complete sentence should be--
What would happen to Miss Zhou if she hadn't married her second brother?
Nangong Yue picked up the tea cup and took a sip of the hot tea without saying a word. If this marriage doesn't work out, there are probably only four choices waiting for Miss Zhou, either to enter the palace as a concubine, or from the Qingdeng ancient Buddha as a companion, or a white silk, a glass of poisonous wine, or, far away. Di Fa gets married, don't want to go back to Luoyue City in this life...
For a girl in her prime, every ending is so cruel!
At this time, Que'er in a lake blue robe came in from outside, bowed his knees and saluted: "Prince Concubine, regarding the matter of Miss Zhou, the servants have already found the servants of General Dingyuan's residence, as well as the relatives of Zhou's residence. Investigated..."
Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly. After King Zhennan's birthday banquet, she instructed Que'er to inquire about the situation of Zhou's family and Miss Zhou's usual temperament, behavior, preferences, etc. I didn't expect Que'er to have news so soon Now, this girl is getting more and more agile.
Nangong Yue said solemnly, "Tell me and the eldest girl."
Queer rationalized his thoughts and talked about the Zhou Mansion in an orderly manner.
The deceased old grandfather Zhou was a striker under the old prince back then, and he and his wife had two sons. Sixteen years ago, when the old prince pacified the Baiyue Rebellion, the old man Zhou and his eldest son went to the battlefield together.
After the war, the old prince asked Zhou's family son to be named the fourth-rank Dingyuan general, and the second son attacked him, but he was so adorable for three generations.
Because the eldest son died prematurely, the old man of Zhou mourned that he had no heir to offer incense, so he ordered his second son to have two rooms, and married Wang, the orphan of his subordinates, as the wife of the big room.
"... After marrying General Zhou, Wang's family was not favored. I heard that General Zhou has stepped into the courtyard of the long house only a few times, plus the long house has no children, and his position in the Zhou house is very delicate. Now the Zhou house is in charge. It's the second wife, Mrs. Lu."
These Nangong Yue still knew a thing or two, she nodded and motioned Que'er to continue talking.
"The mother and daughter of Wang's family in Changfang live in seclusion on weekdays, but only on the first and fifteenth day of every month they go out to the Great Buddha Temple to eat incense. The eldest girl has an excellent hand in small script, which she practiced by copying Buddhist scriptures."
Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly.
Girls of this age are interested in copying Buddhist scriptures? Is Zhou Roujia to accompany her mother, or is she really addicted to this way? It's not that it's wrong to copy the Buddhist scriptures, but Xiao Luan's temperament is out of touch. If Zhou Roujia is too dull, I'm afraid the two will not be able to meet.
Nangong Yue thought to herself, "Could Miss Zhou be able to ride a horse and shoot arrows?"
"It doesn't seem to be." Que'er replied, "Miss Zhou rarely leaves the house, and no one has ever seen her go out on a horse."
The girl at the general door can't ride, and Xiao Luan has less common hobby... Nangong Yue has a headache, she doesn't want to match a pair of grudges.
Furthermore, judging from the situation of the Zhou family, Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Wang, must have a soft personality. Otherwise, she would not have allowed herself and her daughter to go back and forth. Being raised, he must have a good temperament, but in Xiao Luan's yard... that's not something a soft-hearted person can hold back.
If things go wrong, Xiao Luan's house will be weak and strong, wouldn't it be the same as the Fang family's third house without a little bit of decency.
This marriage may not be appropriate.
Nangong Yue was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What was the attitude of the Zhou family after the birthday banquet that day?"
"...The servants of Zhou's mansion are rumored to have slapped Miss Zhou directly after returning from our palace." Que'er paused and said, "Afterwards, General Zhou called Miss Zhou a slap in the face." I went to ask the reason, but Miss Zhou only said that the girl on Tuesday had soiled her dress at the birthday banquet, which made her lose face. In the end, Miss Zhou was sentenced to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days." Speaking of which, Que'er She couldn't help but look puzzled and didn't understand why Zhou Roujia didn't report to General Zhou.
Nangong Yue smiled, she put down the tea cup in her hand, and said after thinking, "Is that so... I have heard that Miss Zhou's piano skills are extraordinary, I have a new sheet music, Que'er, please write the next post for me. Give it to Miss Zhou, and ask her to come and judge me in the house in three days." Last time at King Zhennan's birthday banquet, she only had a few words with Zhou Roujia, and she didn't know much about this Miss Zhou. , it's good to see you again...
"Yes, Concubine Shizi." Queer bowed his knees and replied.
"Sister-in-law..." Xiao Fei was thoughtful by the side, hesitantly before speaking.
Maybe she didn't know what happened to the husband and wife in the past, but since seeing the relationship between the eldest brother and the eldest sister-in-law, Xiao Fei felt that the so-called husband and wife should be like eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law, understand each other, tolerate each other, and empathize with each other.
The second brother Xiao Luan and Zhou Roujia are very different in every way. If they get married because of the accident at the father's birthday banquet, will they hate each other in the future? But if you don't do anything, then Zhou Roujia...
The thousands of thoughts in Xiao Fei's heart finally turned into a helpless sigh, and she could only ask Zhou Roujia to go to the house before making plans. Xiao Fei suddenly remembered that when he went out to the piano shop, he happened to meet his second brother who was also leaving the house. Seeing his sneaky appearance, he must have gone out of the house to play without the knowledge of his father... He is such an old man, he still doesn't care. Lungless!
Thinking, Xiao Fei frowned.
Queer quickly withdrew. On the same day, a big red gilded post was sent from Bixiaotang to General Dingyuan's residence...
As soon as this post was sent, Xiao Hui flapped his wings and came back. Before the maids could report to Nangong Yue, he had already swooped into Nangong Yue's yard with a long roar, and then stopped on the window sill without blinking. Looking at Nangong Yue in the room.
"Xiao Hui!" Nangong Yue stood up in surprise, walked towards the window, and couldn't help but reprimanded, "You bad boy, finally know to go home!" Since Xiao Hui went out with Guan Yubai, It's getting wilder and wilder. Every day I go after Guan Yubai and the others, and the time spent going out is getting longer and longer. This time, I haven't come back for more than two days...
Nangong Yue counted the days and estimated that Guan Yubai should have arrived at Yanding City. Xiao Yi left Xiao Hui behind, so he was not too worried.
Xiao Hui let out a cry, as if he was defending himself.
The thrush on the side noticed that Xiao Hui's right paw was tied with a small bamboo tube, and hurriedly said: "Prince Prince, look..."
Nangong Yue's eyes also fell on Xiao Hui's claws. This kind of small bamboo tube is usually tied to the legs of carrier pigeons. The key is that the style of this small bamboo tube is too familiar to Nangong Yue.
"It's A Yi's letter!"
Nangong Yue's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly untied the small bamboo tube from Xiao Hui's claws.
She opened the small bamboo tube and took out the silk paper folded into a long strip.
The maids in the room exchanged glances secretly, and some couldn't help laughing: Lord Shizi is still so unexpected that he actually used an eagle as a carrier pigeon!
For a time, the maids looked at Xiao Hui with a strange look. In the past, Xiao Hui's arrogant golden eyes seemed to have a trace of ferocity unique to birds of prey, so they didn't dare to get too close, but today they feel that little Gray is like a large pigeon, it looks more lovely and kind.
Nangong Yue's face was full of smiles. She hurriedly unfolded the silk paper and looked down quickly.
At the beginning of the letter, Xiao Yi expressed her thoughts in hundreds of words, and mentioned that Lin Jingchen and Han Qixia were in Yanding City. Then he turned his words and said firmly that he did not spoil Xiaohui. It was because of his careful teaching on weekdays that Xiaohui could make great achievements, and then he boasted about how Xiaohui was able to catch him with one blow. A carrier pigeon arrived, so a secret letter from Nanliang was intercepted...
Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Xiao Hui who was parked on the window sill. She raised her eyebrows and couldn't help laughing: It turns out that this happened the day Xiao Hui brought Guan Yubai's bamboo tube back. It's also a coincidence.
She also knows that Xiao Hui likes to tease the carrier pigeons at home very much recently, so that every time the carrier pigeons fly back to the house, they are jumping for a while. Such a "military feat". Now, it's enough for Ah Yi to be proud of it for a while!
The corners of Nangongyue's mouth became higher and higher, and she continued to look down. Xiao Yi wrote two sheets of paper. Nangongyue read very fast at first, but gradually became slower and slower, almost reluctant to part. It took a cup of tea to read the two pieces of letter paper.
Nangong Yue read it over and over again, and then instructed Thrush to light a candle and light the corner of the first letter...
Thrush watched the letter burn into ashes little by little, and vaguely guessed that the letter from Shi Ziye this time was likely to contain military intelligence.
Nangong Yue's eyes were deep, and she carefully put another piece of letter paper into the box, locked it again, and instructed the maids to get some raw venison as a reward for Xiao Hui.
After feeding Xiaohui and sending him to play, Baihui and Ying'er came into the house. Baihui was holding a phoenix-tailed qin in her arms, while Ying'er was carrying a few packets of snacks wrapped in oil paper. The sweet smell of the dim sum wafts faintly through the oiled paper.
Nangong Yue looked towards the two of them, and after Baihui bowed her knees and saluted, she placed the phoenix-tailed qin on the qin case beside her, and said, "Prince Concubine, the Bai's shop is right next to the qin shop, and this servant remembers their osmanthus and red beans. The cakes and rose cakes were well done, so I bought some and they were still warm just after they came out of the oven."
Before, because of Zhou Roujia's affairs, it affected Xiao Fei's mood. When she left, she was a little embarrassed. Nangong Yue thought about the qin Xiao Fei mentioned, so she ordered Baihui to buy it.
Nangong Yue is also a person who understands the piano, and at first glance, he knows that this is a good piano. She sat down in front of the piano case, plucked the strings with great interest, and tried the sound.
The sound of the piano is clear, agile and elegant, like a stream flowing slowly...
This phoenix-tailed qin is indeed a top-quality one, and surely Sister Fei will like it!
The corner of Nangong Yue's mouth was slightly hooked, and she looked at the piano in front of her with a smile, her hands were itchy too. Why don't you go to the small garden with Sister Fei tonight, play the piano to the moon, and let Baihui perform the sword dance... Yue , Qin, Sword Dance, Beauty, um, suitable for painting!
Thinking about it, Nangong Yue quickly glanced at Baihui, who inexplicably felt that her master's eyes were a little strange, and her heart was agitated.
Action is not as good as heartbeat, Nangong Yue immediately stood up and said, "Go, let's go to Yuebiju."
She put on a gauze outside, adjusted her makeup, and then ordered Queer to send some snacks to listen to the rain pavilion, while she brought Baihui and Qin, planning to cross the small garden to the palace.
In the past few days, all kinds of chrysanthemums and camellias are blooming, colorful, and the air is filled with a faint floral fragrance.
From a distance, Nangong Yue saw several little maids hiding by the rockery, whispering to each other, not knowing what they were talking about.
Baihui frowned, thinking in her heart: These girls are getting more and more unruly, and they are hiding in the small garden. How decent!
One of the little maids just glanced here, and was shocked for a while, and hurriedly patted the other little maid next to her. Soon, the little maids looked at Nangong Yue and Baihui in unison, all of them were pale and fell to their knees in fright.
Baihui got Nangong Yue's signal, and after a few reprimands, ordered them to retreat.
Just as she was about to withdraw her gaze, she caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye. She was busy and fixed her eyes, and saw a man and a woman talking in a pavilion not far from the rockery. Could it be that those little maids were still watching the fun? !
Nangong Yue also saw it, narrowed her eyes slightly, and motioned for the two maids to follow her.
The three of them stepped up and walked towards the octagonal pavilion.
The pavilion is built on the edge of a small lake. Under the sun, the lake water is glistening and the waves are moving, exuding a dazzling brilliance. In the pavilion, the young man was wearing a purple cloud-patterned brocade robe, and the young girl was wearing a goose-yellow, green calyx and plum blossom robe.
But Nangong Yue frowned slightly, why are they two here?
The young man was dressed brightly, but he was extremely embarrassed when he described it. He was dripping with cold sweat and stammered, "Sister...that..."
The beautiful girl had a straight face and said righteously: "Second brother, you are already fifteen years old, why are you still so careless and heartless in doing things... This matter is done now. We all know in the city that Miss Zhou's boudoir reputation has been damaged, what are you going to do?"
Xiao Fei kept talking, while Xiao Luan, who was in front of her, was downcast, like a child who had been taught by the elders... Suddenly, he saw Nangong Yue walking towards them not far away, his eyes lit up, As if seeing the savior, he hurriedly called out, "Sister-in-law!" He breathed a sigh of relief. Sister-in-law is here. My sister must be embarrassed to continue to train him. Moreover, with the temperament of sister-in-law, she will definitely help him. Say something nice?
Xiao Fei originally had her back to Nangong Yue, but after hearing Xiao Luan's call, she also turned around.
"Sister-in-law." She immediately saw the phoenix violin in Baihui's arms, and thought of something. Could it be...
Nangong Yue walked into the pavilion and said, "Sister Fei, I was going to Yuebiju to find you, but I didn't expect to see you here."
Xiao Luan was overjoyed and wanted to take the opportunity to retire: "Sister-in-law, since you have something to ask for your sister, then I will leave first."
While speaking, he quickly walked around Xiao Fei, suddenly stopped and said, "...Anyway, one person does the work and one person does it!" After speaking, he almost fled out of the pavilion.
Xiao Fei helplessly looked at his distant back. She is a younger sister, she can persuade her brother, but she can't force him to do anything.
