Shen Cangfeng and Wei Changying were both stunned, saying unanimously, “For us?”
Wei Changying’s expression changed and immediately thought of the lotus-picking girls.
However, Gu Naizheng smiled and said nothing, looking unpredictable. His attitude made Wei Changying, who didn't know his temperament, felt so hurried that she almost couldn't help asking him. Fortunately, Huo Zhaoyu was considerate. He smiled gently and explained, “Brother Yaoye and the sister-in-law, Brother Zilie is talking nonsense. In fact, I happened to live by the lake to escape the heat these days. Seeing the tavern of Xie Family catching fish and shrimp by the lake this morning, I thought that the tavern had now changed its rules and opened in summer as well. I came here on purpose because I have admired the excellent cooking skill of Uncle Xie, but I didn’t expect that Uncle Xie had prepared the dishes for you and that he didn't intend to do business today.”
Gu Naizheng
Wei Changying originally went to Furong Islet for a relaxation. However, after meeting a group of rude and cunning lotus-picking girls, she encountered Gu Naizheng, an impolite man of a great family. Therefore, her pleasure was totally spoiled. Now, she was eager to have a rest in the court after lunch.Except Gu Naizheng, it was a hard lunchtime for people. After they finished the meal and then put their chopsticks on the table in a cold sweat, they felt a little relieved.As they left, they said goodbye to Uncle Xie and his family who were cleaning the table. During this period, Uncle Xie specially greeted his guests. When Wei Changying watched this man over sixty years old, she thought that he was not as old as he looked, because his son and daughter-in-law were still rather young. It was likely that the person on the lake worked so hard that he looked older than he actually was. He was a merciful old man with a slight trace of fishy smell,
In the end, Gu Naizheng and his pals' boats couldn't be found, which was natural. In the midsummer of Furong Islet, the lotus flowers and leaves surged to the sky, and the dense reeds could almost seal off the vast Furong Islet.It was easy enough to hide three small boats in a place like this. Unless someone accidentally met them, the boats wouldn't be found out until the dry season between the autumn and winter months. After hearing the news, Brother Xie and his wife, each poling a small boat, looked around for a long time and didn't find any clues. Shen Cangfeng had agreed with the three that they should return after having meals at the tavern of the Xie Family in Furong Islet. However, the three hadn't come back yet as time passed. Therefore, the Shen Family Courtyard sent another boat here to inquire about the situation.So it happened that the three including Gu Naizheng could be sent away by the boat...Of course, their menservants couldn't get aboard
That afternoon, Madam Su sent her servant into the palace, asking to see the Empress. Just at the moment before the palace door closed, the approval from Empress Gu came out.The next day, Madam Su and her daughter-in-law dressed up and went into the palace in the company of their maidservants.After arriving at the Weiyang Palace, they curtsied to the Empress. Empress Gu smiled, asked them to get up and gave them two seats. Thought Wei Changying was young and could sometimes not be very considerate, she still understood the basic manners. It was not the banquet like the last time. The Empress and her mother-in-law were here, so she should be polite and stay standing. She insisted that she would not be seated, only being willing to stand behind her mother-in-law. The Empress smiled, said she was polite and stopped asking her to sit down.As today was neither a holiday nor a banquet, the Empress was dressed very casually. Her hair was in a coile
After leaving the Weiyang Palace, Madam Su smiled. Obviously, she was satisfied with the result.Seeing that her mother-in-law was in a good mood, Wei Changying felt relieved.Madam Su touched her pearl hair clasp and was about to talk to Wei Changying when they heard a noise coming nearby—They looked towards where the noise was and found that two girls were pulling against each other and walking towards this side from the lane where willow trees were planted in a line. A crowd of the palace people was following them anxiously but had no idea what to do with the girls. Because both girls were delicate princesses, the people could only persuade them gently, but dare not stop them.Seeing these girls in colorful dresses, Madam Su frowned and held Wei Changying's hand as she said, "They've seen us.... We'll leave soon after we greeted them. Don't speak!"At the same time, Wei Changying had realized the girl who was being
In the Changle Palace, the Empress Gu who was worried about the Crown Prince ignored the dispute between Princess Anji and Princess Linchuan, so she persuaded these two princesses to leave away from her palace by an excuse that she was tired. After returning to her bedroom, the Empress Gu looked indeed exhausted.The trusted maid offered her a cup of ginseng tea. And then she knelt down beside the Empress Gu to gently pound her legs with a tiny jade hammer.“Ask Lin De to come in for a report,” ordered the Empress Gu, recovering from tiredness a little, after drinking out a cup of ginseng tea.Seeing her pale face, the maid was worried about her, so she softly suggested, “Your Imperial Highness, you had better continue lying on the bed for a rest. Madam Su has suspected the background of those lotus-picking girls. Even if the Consort Deng in the Guangming Palace planned to do something, she could not meddle in this event. So you had better have
Su Yuwu’s birthday was the day after Empress Gu was informed of the lotus-picking girls. Madam Su specially came to congratulate Su Yuwu in person, which was just an excuse because Madam Su, as an aunt, didn’t need to specially go back to her family for her niece's eighteenth birthday. The real reason was that the last time Su Pingzhan commanded his descendants to stop struggling with each other, so Madam Su kept this matter in mind after hearing Wei Changying's words. She planned to take advantage of this time to come back and explain to his father in person, lest there would be grudges in two families.If Madam Su went back to her family, her daughters-in-law would accompany her. But it was impractical for all of them to go together, so Madam Su left Mrs. Duanmu at home and brought Mrs. Liu and Wei Changying with her. Shen Cangning, who should have followed, was locked in her room because of the deception of Eleventh Prince last time. Madam Su thought that her daughte
Su Yuwu's birthday didn't become grander because of his own aunt's presence. There was only a banquet in the third branch. People from the same generation, Mrs. Liu and Wei Changying, went over and attended the banquet together. Madam Su was still in the main room. Old Madam Deng asked the servants in the kitchen of the main room to prepare a few dishes that her daughter liked. In the afternoon, when Su Pingzhan came back, Madam Su served her parents some tea and started about the business that had brought her to her parents' home.In the room of the third branch, Madam Qian spoiled Mrs. Liu's pleasure, so Mrs. Liu seemed a bit dispirited. When Mrs. Liu wasn't looking at them, Wei Changying told Wei Zhengyin everything about seeing Gu Naizheng, sounding worried about Su Yuli.Wei Zhengyin was not surprised when she heard this and smiled, "Your future cousin by marriage is a bit unusual, but I have discussed it with your cousin. Don't worry. Although he is n
Leaving the Su mansion and returning to the Grand Preceptor's mansion, Wei Changying thought Madam Su must be tired today, so she wouldn't mention that she wanted to visit her eldest aunt Wei Shengxian to her until tomorrow. Although Madam Su looked tired and her daughters-in-law accompanied her to the backroom, she didn't ask them to leave immediately to have a rest but said, " Yi'er, you make a list of things in the bride price. Compare them with the ones you got before. If you can't remember them very well, go to the bursary and find them."Three daughters-in-law heard it suddenly and all became surprised because the fourth young master, Shen Canghui, had just married Mrs. Pei, so mentioning the bride price meant that it should be talking about the fifth young master, Shen Cangji, who was Madam Su's favorite son.But they had never heard anything about Shen Cangji looking for a wife.There was one meeting last year. That was with Wei Lingyue
The pills made by Ji Zhaosi himself and specifically used for hanging lives are extraordinary exactly.Huang asked Wei Changying to bring two pills, which were taken by Shen Shuxie and Shen Jingshi respectively. However, after half an hour, the two nephews and uncle, whose breath was originally weak, breathed clearly and evenly!Even before the high fever has been unrelenting Shen Jingshi, actually began to retreat from the heat!Although it was said that this one pill could not heal them immediately, and it might not even be able to guarantee that they would definitely survive.But ...... Shen stack wiped tears and cried and laughed, "Ji Shen doctor road is delayed again, and then there are at most ten days of light will be able to arrive!"The doctor who was called over to treat the uncle and nephew after taking the medicine said, "The second son and the second grandson are now revitalized, and if they take some more warming and tonic medicines. If th
Wei Changying rushed into the house in a hurry.Because the snow hadn't melted yet, and she was in a hurry, her foot slipped when she went up the steps, and she fell and knocked on the top step."Sister Wei, be careful!" Gu Rouzhang, who was running over with her skirt, shouted in shock and was about to rush forward to help her, but Wei Changying quickly stood up after the fall and went into the house as if nothing had happened.However, the remaining snow on the steps had been dyed blood red under this knock!A trail of blood dripped all the way into the house with Wei Chang Ying's steps!Gu Rouzhang's gaze paused on the blood before she came to her senses and turned back to instruct Shi Man'er, "Go to the car and bring Sister Wei's package!"Shi Man'er fearfully raised the things she was holding in her hands, "The maidservants brought it with them when they got off the bus.""Keep your voice down and follow me in to take a look." Gu Rouzha
Three days later, 5,000 Western Liang horsemen arrived to welcome Wei Chang Ying's aunt and nephew back to the camp.Originally, there was still a last shred of fantasy in his heart, but when he saw the leader of these 5,000 elite soldiers, a lieutenant who claimed to be named Cai Qingzhi, coming up to the hall in onyx, Wei Changying understood everything the news that Shen Bo had been executed by Pei Jie and the others privately was still unknown, and since it was not to observe the filial piety of the Son of Heaven, who else was qualified to receive this onyx of the Xiliang army, except for Shen Xuanyuan? Who else in the world is qualified to receive this onyx besides Shen Xuan?This is nothing less than proof that Shinbo's words that day, or at least part of what he said, were in no way a lie.Wei Changying was like falling into a freezing cellar in an instant!She grabbed her sleeve in death, and was silent for ten or so breaths before she let Cai Qingzhi
Although the news brought by Shen Bo had left the crowd in a state of shock and anger, the rendezvous with Mo Binwei was more or less a relief.Before they easily escaped from the pursuit of the Rong people, and then settled in Changxian not that they are willing to stay in Changxian, but is listening to Shi Lin said that the left side of the county is also Changxian because of the remoteness of the land, there is no big family, so instead of the peace more.With the Rong people to the north and bandits to the south, there's really no other safer way than to wait for news here.And the news that Schilling was told to poke around never did ......Now Mo Binwei with the Wei family's three thousand elite cavalry to come, naturally do not have to Wei family of those doing business with a good hand to continue to rush ducks on the shelf as a scout, there are after Mo Binwei coaching of tough scouts to do this errand.So Mo Binwei stationed in Changxian Count
"...... Zhu Chengyi is the person who served my birth mother back then. After my birth mother was murdered for the abolitionist Gu, I occasionally took advantage of my foster mother's lack of preparation and went to the palace where she had lived to reminisce, and often saw him secretly burning incense and praying for my birth mother in the corner. Later, my foster mother lost favor, I live in the Jia Mu Palace, Zhu Chengyi frugal saving a meager monthly fee to me, I still remember when I was ten years old in the Jia Mu Palace in the snow like a mat, freezing cold, Zhu Chengyi did not wear a fur coat, freezing and shivering from the corner of the door to look for me in no one's place hard to plug his pawn fur coat of silver money to me, said that is afraid that I have been deducted from the royal son of the part of the case, hurt the body ... ... ...When he was about to part, he was in his prime but appeared to be trembling due to the lack of clothing to protect him from the cold an
Dusk, the remnants of the sun like blood, to the icy sky and snow gilded like gold and blood light.Mo Binwei, dressed in military attire and dusty, followed Pei Jie into the inner courtyard.Although this mansion, which was already a first-class courtyard in Chang County, could not meet the eyes of the real nobles, it was tidied up quite neatly by Shi Lin's commanders.At this moment, the snow in the courtyard were broom swept carefully, the ground brick was frozen into a pale green color. But the corner of the yard quietly spit stamens of a red plum by the north wind blew down a few buds fell on it, the pale more pale, red more colorful, but it looks like a picture.Dark fragrance filled the court, but see the corridor under the two with plain dresses of young girls, playful and bright, is whispering.Noticing that Gu Xi Nian had brought someone with her, Shi Jian'er and Shi Qing'er busily rose and saluted, "Mr. Gu!"Gu Xi Nian raised her stage
"They didn't land in Jiu County, or even enter the city at all, before continuing south?" In Chang County, in the afternoon, there was a foot of snow in the court, and ice prisms reached the ground under the eaves.However, because the house was burning with an underground dragon, Wei Chang Ying was only wearing a jacket. She was dressed in onyx, not adorned with jewelry, but her natural beauty still made the few young Shi daughters who served her look down on her.But Wei Changying, who had already put on her mother-in-law's mourning dress, was not in the mood to congratulate herself on her jade-like appearance.Through the embroidered curtain, she listened to the report of Shi Lin, who had rushed to Jiuxian County without stopping to find out the news and then rushed back, and her eyes gradually became heavy, "You go, and invite all the people who traveled with me to come over, in addition to Sister Deng, Jing'er, and the entourage!"Shi Lin heard the skept
Mo Binwei escorted Wei Xin Yong back to Fengzhou to take revenge, and originally agreed to return to the capital immediately after killing Wei Qi.Then Wei Xinrong would assist Shen Bo, who was still the Crown Prince at the time, to ascend to the throne, and then of course, he would gain high rank and salary by taking his own merits from the dragon, and then vigorously cultivate Mo Bunwei his birth mother died early, and his relationship with his family was not good, and the Crown Prince was too short a period of time for him to develop any deep roots, so there was no one available to him in any respect. Available, Wei Xin Yong and Mo Bunwei such and real learning, but no reliable background of the young talent, it is Shen Bo's dream of the right arm.According to Wei Xin Yong's previous plan, with the help of the Shen Bo emperor's identity, he and Mo Binwei a literary and military cultivation of power, the existence of Wei for a year to cultivate a year of course, he wi
Taking advantage of the light of setting up camp, Mo Binwei walked into the tent that had been specially erected for Wei Xinrong, who had not yet recovered from his illness.The tent is lit with two wind lamps, Wei Xin Yong's feet, there is a delicate mythical beast gilt furnace, the furnace burning the best silver frost charcoal, warm, but do not see half a bit of smoke and fire atmosphere.This is a disease for many years of Rui Yu Hall six old master than a year ago, thin not a little two points, the whole person even some form of bone meaning. Originally fair face through a strange pallor, more and more appear his eyes cold as a cold pool, bottomless.Not only that, the weariness between his brows was very obvious, making Mo Binwei very worried for him, "Mr. Wei, but today's march was too long?""There's no harm in it." Wei Xinrong sipped the hot ginseng tea in the tinu, shook his head slightly, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "My physique is too wea
