[Red House] Men's clothing

On the morning of the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Situ Yue saw the city wall of the capital, and the banners of the guards of the Rong Palace could be seen from a distance. Situ Yue touched Zhu Dan's little head, "Remember what my father told you ?"

"Remember, you have to say hello when you meet people. Someone asked me where I lived and who I was with, and I only said that I was with my mother, and I don't remember the rest."

Situ Yue touched Zhu Dan's little head in satisfaction, and opened the curtain, the family general had already accompanied Qiao Qiao on horseback.

Qiao Qiao cried as she got into Situ Yue's carriage, before she could say anything, she began to cry.The wheels of the carriage were crushed on the bluestone road in the capital, and the news had already flown all over the city. What's more, the servants at home were asked to go to Lucang to get Mithril, for fear that it would be too late. The offering of silver rice from the imperial court caused the ancestors to blame.

The carriage went straight into the imperial city, Situ Yue got out of the carriage with a pair of children, first went to the Chongzheng Hall to meet, now because of the defeat of the army, the people in the Ministry of War are busy, and it will be New Year's Eve soon, regardless of the weather and solar terms, holding official documents and huddling in the Waiting outside the palace to be summoned.

Today I found out that Situ Yue came back, and brought Chengyue and Fuyuan to the door to meet each other. After seeing each other, I held Situ Yue up, "Jun Ming, I made you suffer. I blame Niu and Li for obstructing you and causing you to suffer. My uncle and nephew had such a misunderstanding, which made Jun Ming's trip full of dangers, and uncle felt very uncomfortable." After speaking, tears flowed down, and Cheng Yue cupped his hands to Situ Yue behind Jinshang's back, and immediately supported Jinshang superior. "Father doesn't have to be like this. Eldest brother and you are uncles and nephews. Our bones are broken and our tendons are still connected. Eldest brother will not be angry with father because of this." He said to Situ Yue. "To let the eldest brother know that the father personally interrogated the two traitors a few days ago, and now he has taken them to the big prison. When next autumn, they will be executed for the crime of deceiving the emperor. If the principle is still there today, the country--has a hard time." In the face of family difficulties, it is even more important for our family to move forward as one."

What she said was full of flowers, Situ Yue naturally wouldn't fight to the death for what happened a few months ago, she immediately wiped her eyes, but couldn't help crying, she spurned a few words in her heart, looked at the ground, stared Eyes widened, and after a while there were only two drops of physiological tears, but this was enough, sniffling, "How can uncle be like this, nephew grew up relying on uncle, uncle's great kindness Don't dare to forget, some villains, just deal with it, we have nothing to talk about."

After finishing speaking, he knelt down and kowtowed heavily, repeatedly begging Jinshang to take care of himself, if it made Jinshang restless because of this, it would be Situ Yue's biggest disobedience.

The three performed a big show in front of the child. Fuyuan stepped forward and supported Imakami together, "Grandfather, look at this little brother looking at us. It's cold outside, why don't we talk in the hall."

Zhu Dan grabbed the corner of Qiao Qiao's clothes and watched the three of them crying to each other dully.

"Yes, yes, I am confused. Is this your son? Jun Ming, it looks like he is three years old now."

"No, a little over two years old, he just ate a lot and grew fat and tall. Zhu Dan, please greet your uncle and uncle, how did the king teach you?"

Wearing bright red clothes, Zhu Dan immediately got down on the knees and greeted Ann. Today, he was able to put down his body very well, and personally helped Zhu Dan up, hugged him again, and entered the Chongzheng Hall together.

After Fuyuan led Qiao Qiao and Zhu Dan to the East Palace to see the newborn younger brother, there were only three of them, so he asked today, "Who are Zhu Dan's parents?"

"Father, my nephew doesn't know. I gave birth to him. I killed his father."

Jinshang and Cheng Yue exchanged glances, "When did it happen? It's impossible, brother. You were in the capital two years ago. Let's see each other every day."

"It was winter when I gave birth to him. I wore thick clothes and didn't take care of him. After he was born, he was too thin. The doctor said he couldn't keep him alive, so he was taken out of the city. Fortunately, those slaves raised him carefully. , it looks strong now, but it's really too empty."

"Brother, a woman gives birth and needs confinement..."

"Who said that, I got up the next day."

"This..." Regardless of whether it is true or not, Cheng Yue pretended to be very uncomfortable, glanced at the two of them today, and rolled his eyes, "Hey, although it is strange, he is also a child of our family. The first son is in the palace, how about this, I will make Zhu Dan the son of the world, you have to be well educated, and you will definitely be a thousand-mile horse in our family in the future."

Situ Yue thanked him immediately.

"Your father is no longer here, and I am your uncle. After all, you can't justly name Zhu Dan. Why don't you visit your grandfather later and invite him to come and give Zhu Dan a name."

They sent someone to the East Palace to pick up Zhu Dan, and they went to Xiyuan together. They said today that there were still matters that had not been dealt with, and that Situ Yue was asked to rest tonight and go to the household department to sit in the hall early tomorrow morning.Situ Yue and his son were left behind to talk to the emperor, and they took Cheng Yue and Fu Yuan back to Chongzheng Hall.

"Tell me about Zhu Dan's life experience. If your uncle doesn't believe what you said, don't think that I also believe it."

Believe it or not, Situ Yue smiled and approached the emperor, "Zhu Dan is the son of Brother Tai. His wife was jealous and drove the pregnant concubine out of the palace. Brother Tai couldn't, wait for concubine Ji Zhu Dan was born in secret, and entrusted their mother and child to the Zhen family. When the grandson arrived at the Zhen family, several men in their family could not stand the punishment. The biological mother was sent underground to accompany Taidi, and I came back with Zhu Dan in my arms. Don’t worry, grandfather, the grandson has checked, and it is definitely Taidi’s son."

"So, I feel relieved. The blood of our Tian family must not be fake."

Situ Yue returned a reassuring look.

After finishing speaking, the grandfather and grandson called Zhu Dan over again. The emperor touched the top of Zhu Dan's head and squeezed his fleshy cheeks.

"Dan, which means red, red and Tonghong, good fortune is a good omen, and his name is Fuhong."

"Thank you, great-grandpa, little brother, thank you, great-grandpa." Qiao Qiao patted Zhu Dan on the back, pointed to the prayer mat in front of him, and motioned him to kneel and thank him.Zhu Dan was also agile, and immediately rolled into the emperor's arms after thanking him, and pulled the emperor's beard unceremoniously.

"He's also dishonest." After all, the emperor was extremely happy, enduring the pain, and Zhu Dan grabbed a few dragon whiskers.

"If you keep making trouble, I won't ask for a Persian cat for you." Situ Yue glared at Zhu Dan with a fierce face.

"Maomao, catmao. Baby wants catmao..."

"It just so happens that the old cat in the Empress Dowager's Palace gave birth to six kittens half a month ago. Let us Fuhong choose one." Take him to the harem.

"No, grandfather, the cats in the Queen Mother's place have been agreed in advance, and it's not good for us to cut off halfway."

"If it's your aunt and cousins, don't cut off their beards. They're all women. Let them be. If they are irrelevant, cut off their beards. Our cats, I love them. Who, a group of lowly maidservants dare to speak in front of the queen mother, if they can, they don't know who they are, and they are all for the sixth child to get used to."

It sounded like a harem lawsuit, Situ Yue wisely didn't interrupt.

When we got to the queen mother, the empress dowager was also there. Now that the old lady was awake, she saw Situ Yue. "The old woman also asked you why you haven't come, you monkey boy. Now I finally saw a real person, yo, who is this, whose fat baby."

"This is our little monkey cub. Come on, Fu Hong, please meet him."

Zhu Dan sold his cuteness in front of two elderly women for a long time, and finally saw the Persian cat he was thinking of. Five kittens were snow-white and snow-white, and one was completely black. The other four eyeballs were all the same, only one The black and white ones have green eyes on one side and blue eyes on the other.

Zhu Dan looked left and right, and the adults in the hall also looked at him. Where he was squatting, the cat in the basket meowed coquettishly. It seemed that Zhu Dan didn't know which one to choose.The kid glanced at Situ Yue, stretched out two hands, grabbed a cat with one hand, and put it in his arms at once, the meaning was self-evident.

Before Situ Yue could speak, the emperor agreed, "Your, your, take it away."

The queen mother and all the maids in the palace laughed, and Situ Yue asked Zhu Dan to give one to Qiao Qiao.Zhu Dan disagreed desperately, and Qiao Qiao didn't like this either, so he just said no, and gave it all to his younger brother.

After lunch in Xiyuan, the pommel horse has been exhausted for the past few days, Fu Hong is still asleep, and puts him to take a nap in the Empress Dowager's Palace, Qiao Qiao looks at him, Situ Yue drinks some wine, and Situ Xuan and Situ Ang are on the corridor say.

"Is there anything new in the palace recently? My nephew has not been in the capital for the past few months, so I don't know."

"We don't have anything new in Xiyuan. The freshest thing is that a pot of orchids raised by the emperor bloomed last month. He called all my brothers to the greenhouse to have a look. Hey, I just took a look. Touched, and then kicked out. Where is the emperor? See what you want to ask, anyway, there is something new every day."

Situ showed obvious curiosity.

"Hey, our serious sister-in-law is the queen, and her brothers never act under the guise of the uncle, but, the Zhao family, the Jia family, the Xue family, and the Xue family will tell you that they are the father-in-law and the uncle at every turn. A few days ago, two groups of people got into a fight, and when they got to the front of the imperial court, Brother Huang was angry because of the defeat, so he didn't ask any questions, just pulled them over and beat each other thirty times."

"Wait...Uncle Ang, Uncle Xuan, three concubines and two groups of people, your two attendant bachelors can't count?"

"It's my brother's fault for not making it clear. In the palace, Concubine Jia and Concubine Xue are in the same group. Then Concubine Zhao Ling has finally met her match. Come on, get closer to my nephew. Uncle, tell you, Concubine Zhao Ling has a stomachache in the middle of the night and eats badly." After picking up something, I pulled the emperor brother from Concubine Xue's palace, guess what, Concubine Xue packed up and came with the emperor, you said three people, how...you understand, the emperor felt that at the time The place is very boring. Concubine Zhao Ling has always boasted that she is both talented and beautiful, but who knows that Concubine Xue can do everything. The emperor brought her here to pay respects to the empress dowager and the queen mother. Guess what, she is a literary talent Feiyang, overwhelming the crowd, coaxed the little girls from the elder sisters' family into a daze. At that time, those silly girls even said they would give Concubine Xue a reward. After discussing with them, they thought that the old one raised by their mother Cubs under cats are rare in the world, so I let Concubine Xue choose first."

"Oh~~~~" Situ Yue dragged his voice, "So, our family's Fu Hong offended his cousins ​​before they met."

"Hey, our young master is much more noble than those stupid girls." Situ Ang said indifferently, "What is this? If you want, my mother and concubine also have a few pugs, and I will give you one when they give birth." .”

Back in the palace in the afternoon, not to mention that Mrs. Zhao cried for a while, then carefully took out Zhu Dan's rabbit and replaced it with a new cage, which contained a clay pot that could hold clean water.

"Now that the child has been given a name, don't keep calling him by his baby name in the future. The child is getting older every day, so it's better to be called by his first name."

"Listen to you." Situ Yue didn't argue with her on these trivial matters, and he could tell that Princess Zhao was trying her best to please her new young son.

"The concubine's yard was tidied up, and the prince lived in it. The concubine even selected a few old mothers to look after her..."

"No need." Situ Yue put down the teacup, "Let Fu Hong follow me, you girls can't teach him anything, just take care of his food and clothing during the day."

Concubine Zhao looked like she was in tears every day, Situ Yue couldn't tell if it was because this glassy heart had been stimulated by something again, so he didn't speak.Looking at Fu Hong jumping up and down in the upper room to play cats and cats.

After a while, it was reported that people from the Ministry of War came to visit, but Situ Yue refused, and after a while, several famous scholars from the Hanlin came to visit, Situ thought about it, she and cultural people never said that they would go together , also refused.After dinner at night, I went to bed early.On the second day, he got up full of energy and took the guards to the yamen of the household department. The whole household was waiting at the yamen gate. After seeing the ceremony, Situ Yue asked, "Who is the newcomer in the past few months when I have been in the south of the Yangtze River? "

Unexpectedly, one-fifth of the officials were newcomers. Situ Yue took a look and saw that the number of people in the household department had also increased a lot. After asking, he found out that the Minister of the household department who took office saw that the household department was short of manpower, so he made the decision to add more people. some officials.

"Old rules, when you come in, you have to be assessed. If anyone can't work for the household department, go back and chew on yourself immediately."

All the newcomers will be assessed by the chiefs of the various departments. If the chiefs follow suit to deceive the superiors, then all the ministers will also pack up and leave.Others who do not participate in the assessment should bring their abacus paper, count the inventory in various places, and settle the throwing fee on the west road.

He was giving orders, and the Minister of the Ministry of War asked to see him.

Situ Yue ignored him, and only asked Cheng Ju to tell him, "Let the Ministry of War select capable personnel. On New Year's Eve, that is, tomorrow night, two months' worth of food, grass and medicines will be loaded into the truck. And tell him that if the enemy takes the food and grass, this king will not make up even a single amount of food."

The food in Zhili Dacang can no longer be transferred out, and the food in it is related to disaster relief in various places in the coming year.There was a lot of noise in Lucang yesterday, and many officials' families took the opportunity to receive Lumi, so there is not much grain in Lucang now.Situ Yue gritted his teeth and ransacked the lucang and the granary in the palace. Regardless of the cries of the eunuch in charge of the palace, he immediately prepared to put it in a bag and hand it over to the Ministry of War.

"My lord, you said in the morning that it was two months. Now, it's only one month. This..." The visitor was very embarrassed.

"The king also said that it was New Year's Eve. Why didn't you say that the king gave you half of the food and grass in advance. You have enough white medicine, but you have to wait for a few days for strong wine. You can escort a batch first, and let the soldiers in the west in the first month If you have enough food, come back tomorrow, and this king can get you a batch of food."

The people from the Ministry of War clasped their fists and left, and Ma Shilang from the Ministry of Households asked, "My lord, except for Zhili, we have no grain left. However, the grain in Zhili seems immovable."

"Didn't it mean that someone was greedy for food on the road last time? Time is too urgent, and we don't want to investigate who is greedy and who is not. Come, my king will read it, and you will write it. Tomorrow morning, my king's The guards, the servants of our government office and other officials, come to the door with this paper, even those poor Beijing officials, if there are people from high-ranking and wealthy families who are officials in the court, we will come to collect donations."

The next day, when people from Rongguo Mansion opened the door, they saw a white paper pasted on it, and the door yelled, "I don't want to look at any bastards, and I don't even look at the white paper on the door of our mansion for the New Year's Eve." What kind of family is our family?" Cursing, someone took a closer look, and there was a big seal on it, and a piece of paper was pasted on the other door, which was also stamped with a big red seal, and immediately told the literate husband at home. They called over, and they couldn't see it. The two brothers, Jia She and Jia Zheng, were pulled out of the bed, and went straight to Jia Taijun's room in the backyard after watching.

"That King Rong is too deceitful." Jia Zheng gasped angrily in the room.

"Is there still Wang Fa? Let's talk to the empress tomorrow, this is simply too..." Mrs. Wang couldn't continue speaking behind the screen.

Before Jia Taijun could speak, the maid outside said, "Mrs. Xue and Mr. Xue are here."

"Old lady," Xue Pan went straight to the point, "Someone posted this piece of paper on the door of Lixiangyuan today. It's extremely bad luck for the Chinese New Year."

Jia Taijun thought for a while, "According to the prince's request, prepare the food. You don't have to wait for the people from the Ministry of Households to collect it, but send it directly to the yamen of the Ministry of War, and take this paper to the prince."

"Old lady" Jia She was very unhappy, "This amount is too big, let's..."

"Old lady, Uncle Zhen from the West Mansion has brought Uncle Xiaorong here."

"Zhen'er come in, you follow what I said, our two empresses are in the palace, it can be regarded as a face to the empress, and we will let the empress and the holy majesty know that we have contributed to the country when we enter the palace tomorrow."

Seeing the men at home sitting still, he naturally knew that they were unwilling to do so.He said sadly, "King Rong has a cold face and a dark heart. We have been stared at by him for so many years. I don't know why. He always asks Zheng'er for the money he owes. The same is true in Xifu. There must be two pieces of paper posted, and now they are posted on the On the door, one is for borrowing grain, and the other is for urging money owed to the treasury. If you don’t borrow money, the household department will come to our house tomorrow to urge money. During Chinese New Year, do you want to be stuck at home and become the laughing stock of the whole city?”

"It's not like our family, otherwise everyone wouldn't pay it back." Xue Pan got up and straightened his neck, blushing and roaring thickly.

"Nie Chao, listen to the old lady." Aunt Xue burst into tears inside.

The author has something to say: I was too hasty to check for typos, and I saw the message.
