Chapter 86
Qi Lingheng rarely cares about women's affairs.
He accidentally learned the secret of the Lu family's aunt's life experience, and he had no intention of casually intervening.
However, everyone knew about the commotion in Wudinghou Mansion. People were talking about it wherever he went, and he couldn't help but listen.
"Heng'er, what are you thinking about?"
Zhao Susu summoned her mother-in-law into the palace to talk to her, just as Qi Lingheng came over to say hello and left him to sit for a while.
He doesn't like chatting with women at home. He usually just sits and listens for a while, drinks a cup of tea before leaving.
At this moment, he seemed a little distracted.
Qi Lingheng returned to his mother: "It's snowing."
Zhao Susu and the women of the Zhao family looked out the window and saw that it was really snowing.
Everyone was happy for a while and continued to talk about the eldest aunt of the Zhao family, who was Zhao Susu's eldest sister and Qi Lingheng's aunt.
Zhao Susu was very sad: "The eldest sister and Li Hou married away, and I haven't seen her for several years."
Every year we correspond by letter.
She looked lonely: "...I don't even know what my sister looks like now."
Her sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhao San, advised her: "I want to see what my eldest aunt looks like. After the new year, I will ask the third master to visit my eldest aunt, and then I will draw a portrait of my eldest aunt and come back."
"OK!"
Zhao Susu missed her sister so much that her eyes turned red.
Mrs. Zhao San is a good talker. She quickly smiled and said: "My aunt is pregnant again. She is less than three months old. She said she had a dream. In the dream, the gods said that the baby was a girl. My aunt didn't want to It's public, but the generation after us are all naughty boys! My aunt was really happy, so she wrote a letter to the family and came back to tell the old man and his wife."
Zhao Susu was really happy after hearing this: "Seriously?"
Mrs. Zhao San said: "Of course it's true!"
Everyone said that when Zhao Susu's eldest sister fought for a divorce, Zhao Susu did not hesitate to tell Emperor Jingshun about the family scandal. The exchange for today's life is really worth it.
"If a woman reconciles, she will shed her skin even if she doesn't die. Our eldest aunt is also a pitiful person."
Mrs. Zhao San sighed.
Who says it's not?
Speaking of He Li, there was a fierce incident with He Li in the capital recently. Zhao Susu thought of Taifu Lin and couldn't help but mention: "Tai Fu Lin's daughter also has a bad fate."
Qi Lingheng's eyes moved slightly and he took a sip of tea.
Mrs. Zhao San said more: "I heard that the Lin family also tried their best to get their daughter to reconcile. It was actually the Wuding Hou Mansion..."
Zhao Susu said with emotion: "If a woman reaches the stage of reconciliation, she must not be able to survive."
We are both women, who doesn't sympathize with Lin Yunwan?
Mrs. Zhao San saw that the atmosphere was not good and quickly said: "Maybe if the Lin family makes such a fuss, Taifu Lin's daughter will have a better life in the future. Didn't we not hear what happened to her later? The Lu family also dismissed the concubine. .”
Zhao Susu also thought on the bright side: "...Maybe the Lu family really treated her well, and she thought about it herself." This is the best outcome.
Qi Lingheng didn't want to hear it anymore.
"Mother, my son is resigning."
I also said goodbye to my aunts, aunts and uncles at home.
"It's snowing outside, please be careful on the road, Your Majesty."
Qi Lingheng nodded lightly and left the palace.
The first snow in the capital was not heavy. Ah Fu held an umbrella for him, and when he walked outside the palace, the snow stopped.
Returning to Prince Huan's Mansion, there was no snow in the sky.
Ah Fu handed the umbrella to the servant who was waiting. He brought up a drawer of snacks and said, "Your Majesty, this is the winter cake that the abbot of Chixiang Temple just sent over. Do you want to try it? I have already tried it. It’s poisonous.”
He opened the lid and found several snacks that could be called "icy pure". Some were snow-white and some were translucent. They were very similar to the fruits that grew on the branches covered with silver in the ice and snow in winter.
Qi Lingheng took one look and said, "Take it down."
He is not very fond of food. Although the pastries are exquisitely made, he has no interest in them.
Picked up a book and started reading.
Ah Fu closed the lid and was about to leave with the drawer in hand when Qi Lingheng stopped him again: "Is the Red Elephant Temple only sending it to the palace?"
Ah Fu thought for a while and said, "Definitely not. The wealthy pilgrims we usually meet in the temple must be sent to every house."
Qi Lingheng thought for a moment and said, "Go and give them more reward money, and tell them that on a good day, the king will come over and offer some sticks of incense."
Oops!
Why did you change your mind so quickly?
Ah Fu asked: "What about this pastry, you..."
Qi Lingheng said he wanted to try it, but he only took one bite and put it down, saying, "It tastes better than the ones made in the palace."
But that’s it, I ate too much delicious food, but it didn’t feel very fresh.
Ah Fu packed up his things and went out, and personally gave orders to the intellectual monk sent from Red Elephant Temple. He was a novice monk who specialized in dealing with distinguished pilgrims. He was very considerate in his words and actions. After receiving the reward, he said: "This poor monk must have made good arrangements when he returns."
The Wuding Hou Mansion also received cakes.
"Longbow, give it a try."
Lin Yunwan had no appetite, so she let Lu Changgong eat.
Even if his mother asked him to eat something, he would still find a way to take a bite of it, even if it was a stone.
Lu Changgong ate a piece and said with a smile, "It tastes good."
There was a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he was naturally calm, and even if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to see that bit of surprise.
Lin Yunwan always felt that he was too boring, so she said, "Eat more."
Lu Changgong nodded obediently.
Lin Yunwan talked to him more: "It's the cakes from Red Elephant Temple, which is where we stayed when I took you to worship your grandfather last time."
Thinking of her father, she was a little distracted.
Lu Changgong said: "My son remembers the murals there. They are very beautiful. If mother is not busy, my son will accompany you to have a look."
"Are there any murals in Red Elephant Temple?"
Lin Yunwan had never visited the temple seriously and didn't know there were murals inside, but she really wanted to worship her father.
She then told Pingye: "Go and tell the people in Chixiang Temple, we will go there the day after tomorrow to offer incense."
Lin Yunwan still wanted women to abide by the rules and explain to the elders in the family.
Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Wei actually didn't want her to go out, but they didn't dare to stop her.
The doctor who checked Zhuqing's pulse came and checked him three times. He said he had a happy pulse three times.
Lin Yunwan was very happy and said to Pingye: "Go to the warehouse and pick a few things for her, and then tell her that there is no need to go to greet her anymore. Everything is for her own comfort."
Pingye left with a smile on her face, and when she came back she said, "Xiliu wants to serve Aunt Zhuqing."
Lin Yunwan said: "I don't care about these things now, but my wife will definitely not object."
I asked Zhu Qing to tell Mrs. Wei, and as expected, Mrs. Wei had no objection.
When Lu Changgong heard that he was going to have a younger brother and sister, he looked at Lin Yunwan's face.
When Lin Yunwan noticed it, she felt that Lu Changgong seemed worried, so she asked with a smile: "You don't like my sister?"
Lu Changgong asked her back: "Mother, how did you know she was your sister?"
Lin Yunwan was stunned and said, "I think so."
Anyway, in her last life, Zhuqing gave birth to a very smart daughter, who was as smart as her. I don’t know if I will live forever.
I often hear people say that a person’s fate as a child is determined, maybe she is just a cute girl.
