little son-in-law

A few days after Rong Ji and his party left, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival. In Daning, the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th is the most important festival of the year besides the Spring Festival. Now the border is fighting and the situation is tense. Nangong Ningge means this It is inappropriate to hold such joyful celebrations at this time, and it is advocated to cancel the annual routine Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace, so as to save some expenses.

The empress dowager held the opposite opinion. She said: "The more urgent it is, the more we need to keep things as usual to stabilize people's hearts. We messed up first, and the people below have no backbone. There is no reason not to be chaotic, so This Mid-Autumn Banquet is not only to be held, but also to be held with great fanfare. Officials in the imperial family and above the fifth rank of the imperial court can bring their family members to attend. In addition, the princess from Xiling will be invited. Although the relationship between the two countries is tense now, people Since we are guests in Daning, we have to show some air of host."

Rong Jin also agrees with the Empress Dowager's approach. The current situation is not yet at its worst, and the most important thing right now is to stabilize people's hearts. Nangong Jingshen is now at the border. The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be played by the Empress Dowager, accompanied by Empress Dowager Mei. Nangong Ninge, as the supervisor, was naturally too busy to get away. Yuyang was escorted by Nangong Ninge's subordinates to the gate of Kunyi Palace after the banquet started, and Liuli took her in.

This is the first time Rong Jin has seen Yuyang since they separated in the spring, she looks very good, and she even put on some makeup today, because she and Nangong Ningge are not yet married, so she wears the bun of an unmarried woman in Daning. There are not many accessories, only on the side of the shiny black hair, two flower hairpins inlaid with white jade and beads are crossed. She is wearing a lilac-colored double-breasted narrow-sleeved long dress, which is the favorite of noble ladies in the capital. There is a kind of unassuming wealth and elegance on her face, no matter who sees her now, she will not think that she used to be an ordinary peasant woman in the countryside.

Rong Jin burst into a smile, "Yuyang."

Yuyang lowered his eyes, bowed his head and saluted, "Prince Rong."

The smile on Rong Jin's face eased, and she swallowed the other words on her lips, and only said, "I'll take you there to see him."

Yu Yang nodded, "Prince Lao Rong." She stood two steps behind Rong Jin, the most appropriate distance between unfamiliar men and women, not getting close without being rude.

Rong Jin sighed softly in his heart. He had already thought of the two of them at this point, "Let's go, that man is waiting for you in the Yuhua Palace ahead." The lantern led the way ahead, and the sound of Yuyang's footsteps sounded behind.In the middle, Rong Jin wanted to open his mouth several times, but in the end he didn't say anything, so the silence between the two lasted until the entrance of Yuhua Palace.

"Here, the person you want to meet is inside, go in by yourself."

Yuyang glanced at him.

"I won't go in." The scene of the reunion of brothers and sisters should not require the presence of an outsider like him. As time goes by, accidents are prone to happen.

Just a door away, Yuyang stood there with a complicated expression, he dared not knock on the door for a long time, she couldn't bear the disappointment after the surprise.

"Yuyang, I will always be waiting outside for you." Rong Jin's smile was full of comfort.

He knew that he shouldn't have any more thoughts, but after more than three years of facing each other day and night, Yuyang's chaotic mind was miraculously calmed down by his words.

Yuyang stepped forward to knock on the door, but before she even dropped her finger, the door of Que Jiuzhan's room was opened from the inside, and the person who came out had been waiting impatiently for a long time. Kneeling and saluting, the eye circles immediately turned red when he raised his head again, "Princess, princess, princess..."

"Mingran?" Yuyang knew that Mingyue had a sworn sister named Mingran, but after so many years, her impression was a bit vague. If she hadn't heard something from Nangong Ningge on the way into the palace, she would not have been able to match up so quickly. , "Obviously, get up, where is my elder brother?"

Mingran wiped away the tears on his face, got up and said: "The young master has been waiting for the princess in the house, the princess please come in with the servant."

The door was closed again behind the two of them, and after a while, uncontrollable crying came out one after another, mixed with Que Jiuzhan's voice that seemed to be persuading, which was vaguely heard, but the tone was Uncommon tenderness.

"So, you have been with Rong Jin in Nanshan Town all these years."

Tired of crying, Yuyang fell on Que Jiuzhan's lap, just like when he was a child, "Yes, thanks to him for taking care of our mother, daughter and Mingyue these years, otherwise we don't know where we are now." It's peaceful, but it's not easy for two unmarried women to bring a child to live outside.

Que Jiuzhan ran down Yuyang's hair affectionately, "I haven't heard him say this before." He thought that Rong Jin only knew about Anyang's whereabouts, but he didn't know that there was a relationship with him today. Now, as far as I know, he and Nangong Jingshen seem to be very close." Que Jiuzhan thought about it, and chose a more euphemistic way of saying, "Is the girl you mentioned his daughter?" If so, He must not allow Rong Jin to bully his sister like this.

Yuyang had already looked away, and said: "He originally belonged to Nangong Jingshen, he doesn't owe me anything, Yunzhi is a child of Nangong Ningge, brother, don't worry about me, I live in Prince Ren's mansion now It’s pretty good, I don’t need anything, but you, how did you get to Daning, where have you been all these years, I always thought you were forced to death by Que Lingjian.” Nangong Ningge just started to tell her that her elder brother was still alive She couldn't believe how Que Lingjian would let her eldest brother go so kindly.

When Que Lingjian's name was mentioned, Que Jiuzhan's body froze. His reaction was not hidden from Yuyang who was next to him, "Brother?"

"When the city was broken, I wanted to go together, but after being rescued, I hid my name incognito. In the first few years, there was a lot of noise in Xiling, and I didn't dare to come out to find you, which made you suffer outside. "About resurrection from the dead, Que Jiuzhan vaguely mentioned it.

With Yuyang's intelligence, how could he fail to hear Que Jiuzhan's deliberate concealment? If he didn't say anything, there must be a reason for him. She decided not to puncture this layer of paper. What suffering, big brother, you don’t have to feel guilty for me. You see, our brothers and sisters are living well now, and we are reunited now. There is nothing better than this. I believe that the souls of the father, queen and queen will also feel at ease.”

The two siblings reunited after a long absence, and they had countless things to say, and Mingran specially made Xiling-style sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice balls, Yuyang's eyes turned red as he ate it.

The time of getting together always seemed very short, and before they knew it, an hour passed, and there was a knock on the door reminded by Liuli.

Yuyang put down the bowl, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, "Brother, I should go, I will come to the palace to see you another day."

Que Jiuzhan nodded and smiled, "Okay, if possible, bring Yunzhi to show me next time, she's over three years old, and I haven't seen this little niece yet."

Yuyang agreed.Just don't know when the next time will be.

"Obviously, take the lady out."

"Brother, I'm leaving first."

"Be careful on the road." Que Jiuzhan felt reluctance, subconsciously wanted to get up, the blanket on his lap slipped off, and obviously stepped forward to help him pick it up and cover it up.

Yuyang's footsteps of leaving suddenly stopped, and she finally remembered what was wrong since they met. Ever since she entered the room, her eldest brother had been sitting on that chair without moving at all, "Brother, your leg?"

Now that he was discovered, there was no need to hide it, Que Jiuzhan said, "It's okay, I was injured a little earlier, this time it may be an old injury, but walking is a bit strenuous, and the imperial doctor has been watching."

Yu Yang came back and asked in a low voice, "Didn't they force you to stay and hurt you?" It wasn't because she was suspicious, the eldest brother had been in Shengjing for so long, but they had been working together to hide her, and she could still guess what they wanted to do. Get one or two.

Que Jiuzhan shook his head and denied: "Don't think about it, it's not too difficult for them to trap me now, and they won't use this method."

Yuyang didn't feel relieved because of Que Jiuzhan's words.

On the way to leave, Yuyang felt a faint alienation and rejection all over his body, even Liuli could feel it.

"Yuyang..." Rong Jin couldn't help calling out to her.

"If I beg you to let my eldest brother go, will you agree?"

Rong Jin was silent for a while, "Sorry, Yuyang, I can't do it for now."

"Then there's nothing to talk about between us." Yuyang said lightly. Standing on the same standpoint, she would make the same choice as Rong Jin. Intellectually, she can understand, but emotionally, facing the big brother trapped in the She still can't understand this person in the palace.Once they regain their original identities, this is the antagonism they have to face, and this antagonism may last for a long time.

This war has lasted for a long time. Nangong Jingshen did not come back during the Chinese New Year, but it is consoling that good news continues to come back from the front. For example, Nangong Zhiyuan is out of trouble. For example, the Zhatu tribe is temporarily stable. For example, Xiling There was a small group of intruders, but no big ones. Nangong Qiuhu and Rong Xi spent the first New Year with Rong Jin in the palace. Seeing that he was in good health, they set off on the third day of the new year. Snow Peak Mountain in Southern Shao Kingdom.Nangong Qiuhu said that thinking of putting incense sticks in front of Yu Xuanxuan's grave, Ke Rongjin always felt that there was something wrong with them.
