The Story of Leaping from the Dragon Gate

The first year of Chengxing.first month.

Just after the national funeral, all the officials and civilians went to pay their respects before the New Year, and celebrated the New Year happily.However, the filial sons and grandsons of the royal family can't do it like this, especially the new emperor who emphasizes filial piety. He has long announced that he will stay for three years, which makes the royal family members embarrassed to indulge.Except for the Jinlu Zhai presided over by Master Xuanqing, which is indispensable, all other festive activities can be avoided.

Song Wei was half lying on the warm couch, listening to Qingyun's literacy lessons, telling in detail how the emperor's family celebrates the New Year under normal circumstances, and telling the anecdotes of the people in the harem one by one.Qingyun was considerate of his grassroots background and spoke very carefully.Song Wei didn't interrupt either, listening to familiar ones should be reviewed, while listening to fresh ones just happened to increase knowledge.When it comes to the harem part, it's even gossip, and after most of the day, I didn't feel sleepy.

If it weren't for keeping filial piety first, you will worship me and I will worship you during the Chinese New Year, and you will have to toss for a while.The more Song Wei listened, the more complacent he became. Fortunately, he had the foresight to sacrifice the big banner of honoring his father for three years, which saved him a lot of trouble.Therefore, when the servant reported to Cheng Guogong to see him, he was quite surprised.There are still two days before the door opens for work on the [-]th day of the first lunar month. Is Master Yuwen coming to check his winter vacation homework... The servant added that Mr. Dugu also came together. , Even Duguying went to Qingxia to conceive and raise her baby. For the sake of safety and confidentiality, she didn't inform others, so she didn't feel guilty, so she hurriedly summoned her.

He quickly got up and changed his clothes, and met his uncle and nephew in the main hall of the bedroom.

"I haven't seen Your Majesty and Your Majesty for a long time, and I miss you so much that I don't even think about eating or drinking. I dared to accompany him into the palace to see Your Majesty." Before leaving, Dugu Mian entrusted his two sons to the Yue family, and the new emperor specially instructed, Yu Wengao and his wife paid more attention to take care of them.I don't want Dugu Li to be awkward for the first time, insisting on seeing her sister and brother Xiao Yin.Cheng Guogong couldn't figure it out, knowing that he had a very good relationship with the emperor, so he simply brought him to the palace.

Song Wei said: "Since that's the case, let Xiaoli stay and play, and you will send someone to pick him up before dusk. My dinner here is too plain, so I won't keep him for dinner."

Yu Wengao was originally worried that the little one and the big one didn't know the importance, so he needed some remonstrance. Hearing what he said, put your mind at ease, and let his brothers stay for a long time.

After Yu Wengao left, Song Wei came down from the throne and took Dugulai's hand: "It's warm inside, let's go inside and stay."

From the moment Dugu Lai entered the door, she has always behaved well, standing behind her uncle after kowtowing, without saying a word.At this moment, he looked up at Song Wei and called softly: "Your Majesty."

Song Wei smiled at him.

The child's voice was louder, cautiously probing: "Brother Xiaoyin."

"Hmm. What's the matter?"

The child suddenly became happy, showing a big smile, and followed Song Wei inside.After walking a few steps, he raised his head again and asked, "Can I call you brother-in-law?"

Song Wei staggered at his feet, but fortunately Dugu La held on tightly, the little baby had some strength, so he didn't fall flat.

With a dry laugh: "Well, let's call him Brother Xiao Yin, kind."

Song Wei directly took him into the Nuan Pavilion where she stayed most often, Dugu looked around and asked, "Brother Xiaoyin, where is my sister?"

Song Wei pulled him to sit down, and coughed softly: "That's it, you know that your sister has a baby in her womb, and her health has not been very good. On the eve of the Chinese New Year, Master Xuan Qing entered the palace to do something, saying that the child was born in the genus of wood. Soil, you must find a place full of vitality to raise your fetus to be healthy. Lion Tiger Mountain in the western suburbs is such a treasured place of geomantic omen, so I will live in Qingxia Temple after the Chinese New Year, and come back after the child is born. It is very important and it is not suitable Because of the delay, I didn't specifically ask you and Xiaoji to say goodbye. Your sister asked me to apologize to you. I really couldn't take care of you and neglected you two. Don't blame her."

Dugu La was stunned.There have been many changes in the past six months. For a half-year-old child, it is really difficult to recover.The death of the old emperor is of course the top priority, but he didn't have much personal experience.On the contrary, it was my sister who was seriously ill and soon got married, or married brother Xiaoyin, and then my sister became pregnant, brother Xiaoyin became a prince and then emperor, and my father went to the southeast to serve.He and his younger brother lived at his uncle's house for three months. He just heard from his aunt recently that he might have to live longer in the future.

Hearing Brother Xiaoyin's solemn explanation now, he clearly considers himself an adult.Full of grievances and panic, inexplicably embarrassed to speak out.Suddenly remembered something, grabbed Song Wei's hand, her little face was full of panic: "Is it dangerous for my sister to give birth to a baby?"

Song Wei patted him: "No. There is Li Yi following him, he is the number one among the imperial physicians, known as the master of gynecology. Besides, Master Xuanqing's medical skills are also good, Qingxia Temple is quiet and comfortable, don't worry."

Hearing what he said, Dugu Lai relaxed a lot, and said: "Mother died of a serious illness because she gave birth to me."

Song Wei had heard about this before, but she didn't expect that Dugu Li seemed to be ignorant, and her psychological shadow was quite heavy.After comforting her again, she finally said: "Xiang Jin and Mu Jin are accompanying your sister to Qingxia to take care of her fetus, and Mu Ping is in charge of guarding them. They are all reliable. When the child is delivered smoothly and brought back to the palace, you can come and see him " Laughed, "Xiao Lai, you are going to be an uncle."

After Song Wei came to the throne, Dugu Ying only showed her face twice as a queen.One was the post-sealing ceremony, and the other was the New Year's ancestor worship, and then he packed up and followed Xuan Qing to Shihu Mountain.Song Wei named Li Yi Yipin a medical officer, in charge of the Imperial Medical Office, who is currently responsible for raising the empress's fetus and delivering the eldest son of the emperor.When Dugu left, he left the two most powerful people around him, Mou Ping and Qin Xian, to Wei Guan.Both of them were promoted and transferred to the Tingwei Army. The latter guarded the emperor's bedroom, while the former was stationed in Qingxia temple to protect the queen's safety.

In this way, Song Wei's plan of changing the emperor's great-grandson into the emperor's great-grandson is completely foolproof.

The above personnel changes are all internal affairs of the royal family and have nothing to do with the political affairs of the court.

Dugulai was obviously shocked by the new position of "uncle". The sense of loss of being abandoned by her sister quickly transformed into a sense of responsibility to be promoted to uncle, and pestered Song Wei to ask many questions about the baby.Song Wei has never had a relationship with her children in several lifetimes, even in name.Unexpectedly, there are all kinds of absurd coincidences in this life, and there will be an extra person who is sure to call his father. It feels very strange. The anticipation is comparable to the hope that La Ji Liu Diu would hatch a pigeon.

Dugu Li's first priority when entering the palace is to visit his sister and brother Xiaoyin.The second priority is to see the horses, donkeys and pigeons that I haven't seen for a long time.Once the first thing is done, it is natural to turn to the second.

Hearing his question, Song Wei immediately became interested: "It's just right, we just finished shoveling the snow, let's go for a walk."

The palace has its own place to tame animals, Song Wei didn't want to wrong her pets, so she just vacated a courtyard.The most spacious main road was allocated, walking on one side and horse racing on the other.He is filial, has little entertainment, and is occasionally depressed, so he rides on a horse, drags his feet, releases pigeons, and gallops around the palace.

He has no scruples and can go anywhere, but the guards are not so convenient.Wei Guan didn't know what to do, and ran to discuss with Landi.Ever since Song Wei came to power, Qingyun retired as a consultant, and the former housekeeper Lan of the Prince's Mansion was promoted to the Chief Chief Officer of the palace.Lan Di knew that he couldn't persuade this master, so he simply selected a group of loyal, reliable and agile young servants to accompany His Majesty on the horse race.

Horse racing in the palace is not uncommon.Walking donkeys and birds, Song Wei is definitely the first one.Fortunately, the new emperor has unique habits, and the servants have already known about it and gradually got used to it.

A few years before the late emperor's death, due to lack of physical strength, he often asked his personal servant to read the memorial.The new emperor inherited and carried forward this tradition, and asked several major managers to lead the second and third junior apprentices to work in shifts.Those who are proficient in literary and ink among the grand palace ladies also participated.It became a fashion to love literature and martial arts for a while.In just two months, the atmosphere in the harem has been revived.The first emperor's sick bed was lingering, and the palace was dull and oppressive.After being tossed by Song Wei, he actually showed a bit of fresh and vigorous appearance.

Song Wei took Dugu Lai to pick out a good horse first, then transferred to another courtyard and released all the pets.

After the father died, Dugu also left immediately. He was sent around by the three princes, and he had to try his best to settle the queen's stomach. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to drink water and pee.Fortunately, none of the people who knew the inside story was unreliable, and the plan has been made, so he doesn't need to worry too much, just deal with the previous government affairs.

In the past, her feet didn't touch the ground, and when she was depressed, she had to find ways to hang out with pets for a while. Now that the Chinese New Year is a big holiday, unless the weather is bad, Song Wei has to walk donkeys and horses every day, and release pigeons.Brother Duguli lives in his uncle's house, and his grandmother is gone. No matter how thoughtful Yuwen and his wife are, for children, there are all kinds of constraints.At this time, he was elated, hugging Ang Ang and feeding the pigeons with the palm of his hand, with regret on his face: "I want to bring the little rhinoceros and elephants with me, but my uncle will not allow it, alas."

Song Wei flicked his whip: "I'll write you an imperial decree, but what your uncle says doesn't count."

The child's eyes lit up: "Well, good!"

Dugulai is the queen's younger brother, the emperor's brother-in-law, and he is a minor, so there is no taboo in going in and out of the harem.The two got on their horses, followed by the donkey and a group of servants, and ran wildly in the palace.

After playing for less than half an hour, Director Lan sent someone to catch up to dissuade him.Duguli will go back that day, without any clothes, if he sweats all over in the cold weather, he will definitely get sick.Song Wei reflected on it, and the two retreated to the warm pavilion, nestled on the kang and played marbles.

Soon, the internal servant reported that the car that picked up the man from Duke Cheng's mansion drove outside the gate of the palace.Song Wei sent Dugu Lai out of the bedroom, and said: "Little Lai, I think that horse is very close to you today, so I might as well give it to you."

Dugu Lai thought for a while, then shook his head: "Xiao Xi and Xiao Xiang are at Uncle's house, and Auntie is already very worried. It's not good to cause her any more trouble."

Song Wei patted his head: "Hey, you're really sensible."

Duguli covered her head and stood a step away: "Brother Xiaoyin, I will be 11 soon." It means that I can't touch my head casually.

Song smiled slightly.It was only then that I noticed that Xiao Douding, who was just halfway up in my impression, was almost at the shoulder.

Dugu Lai looked at him with a tangled and hesitant expression.

Song Wei put her hands behind her back and asked, "What else can I do?"

Dugu La held back for a long time before saying, "Brother Xiaoyin, I want to go home."

Song Wei froze for a moment before realizing what he meant by "going home".The tone of voice sank unknowingly: "Why, are you unhappy living at your uncle's and aunt's house?" Yuwen and his wife would definitely not neglect the younger brothers, so they asked, "Which cousin bullied you?"

"No. My uncle and aunt are very good. My brothers and sisters didn't bully us." Dugu Li looked up, "But...they don't like to talk to my brother. Actually, my brother doesn't like living at his uncle's house at all. I haven't watched it before. come out..."

Dugu Shi was born as a dowry maid in Yuwen Mansion, and this maid did some ulterior and sinister things in Dugu Mansion.The concubine died unexpectedly and was buried hastily. Dugu couldn't hide it from his brother-in-law, and he once revealed a thing or two to Yu Wengao.Although the members of Yuwen's family don't want to anger children, it is human nature to have a colder attitude towards Dugushi.

Song Wei couldn't answer for a while, Dugu Li went on to say: "On New Year's Eve, my brother and I went back to the house to watch the year with grandfather. He was in a bad mood, and his health was even worse. He kept coughing and sighing all the time, saying that he didn't know what to do. I can't see our brothers grow up... Dad said, I am the eldest son of Xianhou, and the eldest son must look like the eldest son and be the pillar of the family. Now that my father is not at home, my sister is going to have a baby, and the family is my eldest There's nothing wrong with my uncle's house, but I want to go back to my own home to be with my grandfather and take care of my younger brother. Brother Xiaoyin, can you tell my uncle for me, okay?"

Song Weiwan didn't expect the child to say such a thing.Seeing the child blinking his eyes and looking at himself, he asked, "This matter...you can say it yourself, why do I have to say it for you?"

"I tried it, and after I said a few words, my aunt began to object. I, I can't talk to her at all..."

Song Wei thought for a moment, then nodded: "Sure, let me explain to you."

After Eldest Prince Dugu left, Director Lan noticed that His Majesty the Emperor was extraordinarily absent-minded, and he ate dinner more slowly than usual.Concerned and concerned: "Is your Majesty uncomfortable?"

Song Wei stopped her chopsticks: "It's okay." She was stunned for a while, and took a few bites, "I just suddenly felt a little emotional, and felt—hey, I'm quite ashamed."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head to look, and roared with a full air: "Add another bowl!"
