One afternoon in the first lunar month, the light snowing just stopped. Someone had swept the snow on the ground into a circle, and put grain on the ground for attracting birds. However, it did not last for a minute for the birds to enjoy their meal. A white flash rushed toward one of the birds. After getting one, the flash ran away quickly, which scared the rest of the birds who flew into the sky immediately!
"Go and get him!" said Qiu Yelan, who was sitting near the window and practicing writing. She stopped writing and commanded her maid Su He who was helping her with rubbing an ink stick on an ink slab. "I think that the birds might not have enough food for the winter. So, I asked them to splash grain on the ground. I did not mean to put the birds in danger as the food of this naughty cat!"
Su He held back a laugh and walked out of the room. She called "Whitey" in a clear voice. In a second, a snow-white with smooth fur Persian cat ran toward her. It li
Jiang Yashuang had just left when Su He came in. She held a bowl of fragrant meat soup in her hands and said happily, "I am back very quickly, right?""You are overhearing?" Qiu Yelan realized the implications of her words, rolling her eyes.Su He stuck her tongue and said, "I just saw that you did not finish your writing before you came into the inner chamber. So, I guessed!""He promised to send me bear palm soup. Did you tell him this?" asked Qiu Yelan, sitting at the table. Su He placed the pot and picked a bowl and chopsticks for her. Then she said, "No, I didn't. I never met anyone except you in this yard."Seeing Qiu Yelan focusing on milky soup and floating meat in the soup, Su He said meticulously, "I remember it was yesterday when Madam Shao said you looked well. I answered her that you loved meat dishes much recently."Over the past two years, Shao Yuemei had been living and teaching in the Prince's Mansion
In the back hall, Ruan Ciyi, who had got the news, was waiting in neat clothes.Over the past two years, the hostility in her heart had gradually faded, and the gloom between her eyebrows was now gone, but the whole person was shrouded in sadness, and even when she smiled slightly, it seemed that she was crying. Qiu Yelan saluted obediently and sat next to her, saying, "You look good today."She was clearly lying. Ruan Ciyi looked gray and tired against Qiu Yelan, who was bright and cheerful.Although there was no mirror at hand, Ruan Ciyi still forced a smile from the corner of her mouth, "I am just like this, but you look more gorgeous.""The two old ladies have been advising me to take nourishing foods since I was out of the mourning." Qiu Yelan said shamelessly, "That might be the reason. Though you are in the mourning period, I advise you to eat more nutritious foods in case you damage your health."Ruan Ciyi was
Fortunately, Jiang Yashuang came very soon. Qiu Yelan had no time to flirt with him but said immediately, "My aunt Madame Lian seems to have been kidnapped by your cousin Jiang Yahong!"Jiang Yashuang was stunned. He knew his cousin very well. If he had really done it, it might be too late now. But it would be better if he went over sooner so that it could be settled sooner, so he said immediately, "I'll go to the old residence now!"After he left, Qiu Yelan began to think about how it could be settled. Madame Lian was still young and was favored in the Lian family. She had been refusing to remarry since widowed, which showed she loved her husband so much. Qiu Yelan had met her several times these years and knew that she was staunch with moral integrity.Wang Qingqian also said just now that she hated being gossiped about. If she were insulted by Jiang Yahong, she would definitely die for her reputation!After all, the Lians were k
Jiang Tianao had no title of nobility at that time, and it was impossible for him to inherit the position of premier. In terms of family property, Jiang Da and Jiang Er, with the identity of being the legitimate eldest son and second son of Jiang Family, couldn’t be afraid of being unable to compete with Jiang Eleven!Conversely, Jiang Eleven should have been the person who would secretly scheme against the two brothers, right?"My eleventh brother and my third sister were born to the same mother." Jiang Yashang sighed, "My third brother-in-law, Duanrou's father, as you know… At that time, my Forth Aunt agreed to marry a daughter from Jiang Family to my third brother-in-law, but she didn't plan to choose my third sister. Instead, she wanted to choose a poor girl from her ancestral family. As a result, my First Aunt... So both my First Uncle and my Forth Aunt feel a little guilty about my third sister."Qiu Yelan understood, "In some ways, they
The next day, Ruan Qingyan looked at the invitation sent by Jiang Yashuang. He was very surprised, "I've been bothering him for the past two years. I can't believe he asked me out one day." He suspected, "Can't he stand it any longer? Is he going to get even with me?"Dongran covered her mouth and smiled, "I don't think General Jiang is such a stingy man. He has suffered a lot from you in the past two years, but he never cares about it. Last time he suffered a small loss. How could he be angry?""If he weren’t magnanimous, he would not deserve to be my brother-in-law!" Ruan Qingyan didn't feel that he was bullying others, nor did he feel wronged Jiang Yashuang. He said naturally, "In particular, Yelan is not easy to talk about. If she married a person who is not open-minded enough, she would make trouble less than a month. I already have a sister to remarry. I don't want my younger sister to be tortured when she gets married."Dongran thought t
When Jiang Yashuang invited Ruan Qingyan to negotiate, Qiu Yelan was facing the invitation in her hand and tilted her lips, "Go hiking? Can I not go hiking?""Chunfu Princess wants to introduce you to the noble girl of the Jing City." Chunran reminded, "Now, although you're not in mourning, the Princess Yang doesn't want to show you around. Even if she is willing to take you, we still have to prevent her from having a bad idea. Fortunately, Princess Chunfu invited you. How can you not go?""I also know that the personal connection needs to be managed, but think about it. Princess Chunfu invited me to Yunyi Building two years ago. She is also kind-hearted. But what happened?" Qiu Yelan hummed, "The ladies of the Jiang family all took part in the hiking organized by his Highness. Don't give me an ugly look at that time. Now my cousin won't marry Jiang's daughter again. I serve them impatiently."Xiaran said with a smile, "Please don't be angry. T
Princess Yang agreed and went back, but left Qiu Jinzhu here saying she wanted the girls to get close to each other and let Qiu Jinzhu ask Qiu Yelan what to note during the trip, "In case she may bother you.""Just pretend to be meek and lovely." Qiu Yelan was not so familiar with Chunfu Princess, so how could she know what Chunfu Princess preferred? Thus, she considered for a while with a cup of tea in her hands and told Qiu Jinzhu directly. "You are good at that, don't you?"Qiu Jinzhu nodded obediently which clearly showed that she was cautioned by Princess Yang before coming and said in a slimy tone, "I will follow every word of you, my dear cousin!""I don't care who you will fawn over, but remember this: don't make any plans against me! If you dared, I could take you out, but I couldn’t promise you can come back!" Qiu Yelan took a sip of tea. She ignored the complex expression on Qiu Jinzhu's face and put the teacup on the table, "If ther
It was just past the Lantern Festival. And it was still a few days left till their spring outing day. So, they still had time to prepare.With the help of Chunran and Xiaran who were older and more sophisticated, Su He only needed to focus on serving Qiu Yelan. While she was grinding the inkstone for Qiu Yelan, they talked about Princess Yang’s request, “They always have evil agendas against you. They try so hard to make you take the sixth Commandery Princess with you this time. I think they may be up to no good!”Qiu Yelan was looking at the ink. She nodded and said, “The ink is enough.” Su He put down the grinding rod in a hurry and wiped her hand clean. And then she rolled up Qiu Yelan’s sleeves for her.Qiu Yelan picked a purple calligraphy brush and started to write. And then she said, “I hate them too. However, since they brought up Kuang Qingwu and got Marquess Zhang into this, if I still refused, even I didn’t take Qiu Jinzhu with me, I
In fact, no matter according to the intention of Emperor Chong Heng, or the meaning of the Supreme Emperor, originally did not want to delay the ceremony so long - the latter, of course, is anxious to see his grandson to be enrolled as the crown prince.But there is no way, two days before Xin Fubing came back, when the Imperial Doctor asked Qiu Hilan for a peaceful pulse, he found that she was pregnant again.Considering the tediousness of the Ceremony of the Register of the Empress, as well as the fact that Qiu Hilan was already past her prime, even though she had already given birth to five children, in the end, it was still better to be careful.Though the Emperor Taishang was wary of the Qiu family, he did not deliberately torment his daughter-in-law who was pregnant with his first grandson or first granddaughter, so after listening to Emperor Chongheng's explanation, he did not say anything more, and rewarded things according to the example.Although Em
At the end of the third year of Jianjia, after Prince Jiang Yashuang's pleading, and Pingyang County Lord Jiang Tianhe's crying, Emperor Jianjia finally agreed to let Jiang Tianhe send someone to Lvdi, to pick up Xin Fubing to return to the capital for a reunion.It was already the end of the year, and Xinfu Bing definitely couldn't come back that year.But to the following year after the spring, Jiang Tianhe let the eldest son personally take people to Lu Di to pick up his daughter, this pick up but picked up a full two years - with Chu Weitong, in the process of the Great Qin Dynasty Rui all over the scars of Xin Fubing, do not want to go back to the capital of this heartbreak, and more do not want to see will remind her of the past of the deceased people.Until two years later, in the seventh year of Jianjia, Emperor Jianjia's old injuries from that year's conquest of the Northern Frontier flared up, and he was collectively advised by the Imperial Hospital to re
Donggong Na people thing finally ended up in the end, but Jianjia Emperor's purpose has also reached part of the: Dingxi Marquis Qiu Jinglan self-requested to be released.With his title and had served in the official position, the external capping of the great officer is also considered relegation. However, since Qiu Jinglan brought it up, he had his own reasons, "Having served as the Great General of Zhenxi, that was during the time of Qianrui. At that time, the real host was actually Mr. Ren, not me. Properly speaking I was still too young in the end - in the early years there were constant natural and man-made disasters, and I didn't dare to leave the center. Now the situation has stabilized, I should also to the bottom of the sharpening to go, now do not go, difficult to wait for the age, legs and feet are not flexible and then run around it?"So it makes sense, Jianjia Emperor is very satisfied with his sense of humor, "He put out to sharpen a decade up and down an
Jianjia Emperor's depression Jiang Yashang all ignore, back to the East Palace, told his wife, "or some dynasty annoyance!""The beginning of everything is difficult, after some days will be good!" During this period of time, Jianjia Emperor father and son played a double act to cover up their childishness and negligence in governing not once or twice, Qiu Hilan didn't suspect at all, but instead warmly consoled him, "Not to mention that there is enough rainfall this spring, I'm afraid that it will be a good year, but it's a good omen!"In these days of dependence on God for food, a good year is a great thing that everyone up and down the land looks forward to.Jiang Yashuang's expression also eased when he heard this, "It's not even autumn yet, I just hope that nothing will happen next!"How can ... not happen again?As if deliberately trying to sharpen the trembling rulers, a spring with plenty of rain was followed by a drought in which the country we
Jiang Yashuang put down his hand, raised his eyes to look at Emperor Jianjia for a moment, and said softly, "You ... don't like the big house ...""Our father and son in the end do not get along for a long time, all this, you still use such euphemistic wording?" Jianjia emperor heard, laughed out loud, despondent patted his shoulder, sighed, "What do not like ... district do not like, worth for father I sent the competent generals, a thousand miles from the northern border to go to Kui County stakeout? That is the most swarthy group of people under my father's command, which is as good as a team of a hundred men in the northern border!""How many such sons and daughters are not too many, and can they just go on a stakeout?!"Emperor Jianjia sneered, "Their original mission was to go kill people!"Kill who?Jiang Yayun, of course!Emperor Jianjia was not a merciful person in the first place, and for the sake of his own future, he was even able to g
Jiang Yashuang was horrified!"How can it be?!"No wonder he was so surprised - his uncle grandfather in the eyes of Emperor Zhaode and the old king of Ji, absolute elder brother as father, completely as a father to see! And still filial son to the kind of father.Although it was said that when the news of the death of the Kui County man - posthumously crowned Dun Wang in this dynasty, and called Old Dun Wang in order to differentiate himself from the current Dun Wang Jiang Tian ardent - reached the capital, due to the blow of the Old Ji Wang's passing, the Zhaode Emperor, who had already been ill at the time, added to his woes, and his condition worsened to the point that the The entire Jiang family was preparing his afterlife at that time. But it was under these circumstances that Emperor Zhaode still insisted on asking about the causes and consequences of this elder brother's passing!Emperor Zhaode's questioning is certainly not just asking the person who
"Your daughter-in-law approached you about An'er?" Emperor Jianjia was waiting for his son in the Warm Pavilion, and when his beloved chamberlain saw Jiang Yashuang come in, he brought tea with both hands and retreated out in silence, leaving only father and son to talk.Jiang Yashang first gave Jun Father a salute, and only then did she take her seat under his gesture, saying, "She is also afraid that after the children grow up a bit, an unguarded person underneath instigated them, so she thought to take precautionary measures before it happens, lest he brew any bitter fruit in the future."Emperor Jianjia gave a "hmm" and said, "This is what she thinks, what about yourself? What do you think?"Hearing the drift in his tone, Jiang Yashang frowned slightly, speculating whether this was a sign of dissatisfaction? His mind turned, and he said, "That's what my child thinks too ...""Not to mention An'er swaddling clothes is your couple raised, on his father, alt
Jiang Yashuang was originally in deep thought, when he heard his wife mention Dun Wang Jiang Tian arbor, his face immediately became unsightly, "An'er is very understanding, and does things in an atmospheric manner, I see him but not like great-uncle, but like eighth brother, very much like being an elder brother!"... His own father was not the great uncle s self reliance on favor insatiable, to force desperate, only to embark on the sacrifice of the first eldest son to fulfill their own this road? The entire tragedy of the fourth house is also from here.Although he hid this past event from his wife with the idea of keeping it secret for his elders, he remembered it in his own heart - not only remembered it, but it had reached the point of taboo.Autumn Hikilan did not know the reason, seeing her husband's suddenly sullen face and rather reprimanding tone, she thought that he was simply unwilling to think that way. She felt tricky in her heart, "Doesn't nineteen
Chang mom came over because after the end of Empress Min Rou's affairs, although the new king remembers that she served Empress Min Rou for a time, intends to grant her a grant to let her go back to the family to enjoy the blessings of life, but she has followed the Empress from the age of a young girl, the master and servant have been together for several decades, and the blood relatives are almost the same.The Empress left so abruptly that Chang's mother couldn't accept it emotionally and couldn't settle down to go home, so she suggested that she wanted to continue to serve Empress Min Rou's descendants - just as the Eastern Palace was newly established, the status of the children in the Eastern Palace was changing, and the first-born children of the Hui Wang House and the Jing Wang House were taking over, all of which required additional manpower.She has no problem with loyalty, experience and qualifications, Qiu Hilan is in short supply, of course, will not be push
