little son-in-law

After the agreement between the two parties was reached, Rong Jin and the others kept their promise and restored Que Jiuzhan's freedom. Jing Shen takes care of their father and daughter on their behalf.The palace is strictly forbidden, and it is very inconvenient to live in the palace. Now Wenger and Rongge are too young, they are in a hurry to find a place to go, and they are always not well taken care of. Rong Jin found a very clean and spacious house near the Rong Palace. After they settled down, there was only a small alley between the house and the back door of Prince Rong's mansion, so it was quite convenient to move around.

Rong Jin said that she wanted Yun Zhi to live with peace of mind, but it was just the opposite. The child's heart was very sensitive, and she immediately realized that with a younger brother, her father would not love her any more. "I don't want a brother." He yelled in a loud voice, but the tears in his eyes were about to drip, and he looked really aggrieved.

Unexpectedly, with such a sound, Rong Jin got close to her, and his ears were buzzing. He subconsciously rubbed his ears, then scratched Yun Zhi's nose, and said with a smile: "Daddy is just such a good daughter, but how can she be so good?" It's a crybaby."

Yun Zhi sniffled, "I don't cry, so am I still Daddy's favorite good girl?"

Rong Jin smiled inwardly, but pursed her lips as if thinking about it, the little girl's eyes changed from aggrieved to anxious, then worried, he finally nodded, and the smile on the corner of her mouth bloomed again.

"Daddy." Yun Zhi yelled and threw himself into Rong Jin's arms, laughing through his tears.

In the Cangwu Courtyard where Rong Jin lives, there are a lot of plantains planted in front of the window, the green and wide leaves stretch out, the breeze blows, and the tree is very cool. At this time, Nangong Jingshen is resting under the window with Ning Zhi , wearing an apricot-yellow brocade uniform and soft silk-soled shoes. He doesn't often wear light-colored shoes, but once in a while he wears them, and the fierceness around him disappears a lot, and he looks extraordinarily peaceful. After more than half a year of meditation, the injuries He has basically recovered, and his complexion has also improved. Ning Zhi is almost two years old. He is as strong as a calf.Nangong Jing closed her eyes deeply and seemed to be asleep on the soft couch, Liuli was fanning from the side, and there was an emerald jade bowl on the table, which contained milky white creamy pear jelly, braving the slightest chill. Angrily, Ning Zhi licked his mouth, sat on Nangong Jingshen's waist and abdomen, clutched the front of his clothes, leaned his head forward, and shouted eagerly: "Father...Father...Father..." Nangong Jingshen cultivated this paragraph Time, facing Ning Zhi every day, taught him to call father emperor countless times, but it was strange, Ning Zhi just couldn't learn it, he would stammer when he called father emperor, he would only keep calling father, father, father.

Such a harmonious scene, one less time to watch, Rong Jin stopped by the door to look at them, comforting herself in her heart, look, how good it is now, and he can feel at ease after he leaves.

"Yun Zhi came to sit with Uncle Jing, I haven't seen you for some time

, seems to grow a lot taller. "Nangong Jing heard the movement of them entering the door.

"Uncle Jing." Yun Zhi said hello obediently.

Nangong Jing supported Ning Zhi's waist and stood up. Ning Zhi slid onto his lap and sat still. When he saw a stranger present, he finally turned his attention away from the snow pear jelly and stared at the person intently. Say: "Sister, beautiful."

Nangong Jing deeply hated that his father didn't know how to call for so long, but he was very talented in striking up a conversation with a girl, and he was self-taught. He retaliated and flicked Ning Zhiguang's bright forehead vigorously.

Ning Zhi nervously raised his hand and touched it twice, he seemed to be used to being beaten, he didn't care, he continued to smile at Yun Zhi and said, "Sister, eat." freeze.

Yunzhi's eyes lit up, he swept away his previous worries, and decided to immediately like the fat brother with a sweet mouth.

Rong Jin probed her hand to test the temperature, and under Ning Zhi's persevering gaze, she smiled and handed the silver spoon to Yun Zhi, "It's been left for a while, it's not too cold, it's just right to eat. It's time for dinner in about an hour."

Yunzhi agreed, took a spoonful and brought it to his mouth, it was cool and tender, very smooth, and it was the most refreshing to have such a bowl in summer, Ningzhi climbed down from Nangong Jingshen three times, Two fleshy hands with deep steamed buns rested on Yunzhi's knees, tiptoed and called out softly: "Sister." With curved eyebrows and eyes, she looked innocent and innocent.

Yunzhi had never been short of anything since he was a child, so he was not stingy, so he generously dug another spoonful immediately, bent down and put it into Ningzhi's waiting mouth, and said like an adult, "Eat, brother."

Rong Jin asked the people in the room to take good care of the two little ones, and Lan Nangong came out quietly, "Let's leave it to their brothers and sisters to play on their own, I think the flowers and trees in the yard are growing better this year, just come with me Come on, I just have something I want to tell you."

"It's really different seeing Yunzhi, and I feel like I'm going for a walk." Nangong Jingshen brushed Rong Jin's brows with his hands. Although it was not obvious, as the person next to the pillow, he still faintly noticed that after returning from northern Xinjiang, , some changes have taken place in Xiaojin, there seems to be a string on Xiaojin's body that he can't see, it is very tight, and he is busy from sunrise to midnight every day, as if there is no tomorrow after today, let him He was very worried. He asked about it. Xiao Jin said that it had been neglected for many years, and that while he was young, he was able to show his ambitions. In the future, he might make a name for himself in history, so he frequently delegated power and retreated behind the scenes to be his strongest supporter. His political achievements are obvious to all. Yes, but Xiao Jin doesn't seem to have much joy in the development of her grand plans.

"After all, I was worried too much before. The relationship between a father and daughter is so great that it can be broken at any time. You didn't see it today. Yunzhi recognized me as soon as we met." Warm sunshine Falling through the dense branches and leaves, Rong Jin's face is purely proud of being a father.

Nangong Jing knew deeply that he had finally let go of a big stone in his heart, so he suggested, "Would you like to invite Que Jiuzhan and his daughter over for a light meal tonight?"

When mentioning that person, Rong Jin couldn't stop laughing, "The third child is at home, he probably won't be willing to visit again." Wenger and Ronger grew up with Ning Zhi since they were young, and they are very familiar with each other. The last time Que Jiuzhan brought him Two little girls came to the door. Ning Zhi hadn't seen him for a while, and he missed him so much, so he leaned close to each other and hugged her left and right, making the two little girls giggle, but Que Jiuzhan's face But it's not very pretty.

Nangong Jingshen also seemed to remember Que Jiuzhan's black face when he had nowhere to show his anger, and laughed, "I do sympathize with him, the third son, a brat who likes to touch his hands, deserves a beating."

"From what you said, Mr. Que's demeanor is quite good. I just don't know what his plans are in the future? Yuyang even asked about this in private today."

"Demeanor is good or not, but scheming is enough. At first, I thought Que Lingjian would control him, but now it seems that he is the one who holds the initiative. You don't have to worry too much about Yuyang, Que Jiuzhan probably won't suffer much. Yes, besides, his legs are healed now, the world is so big, so there is no room for shelter?" Que Jiuzhan's legs improved miraculously, according to the report of the waiter, when Que Jiuzhan was in Wenger that day, Ronger was running and jumping beside him. Knocking over another bowl of hot tea, without waiting for anyone else to react, Que Jiuzhan stood up from the wheelchair with all his strength, and avoided the scalding tea with the two of them in his arms. The degree of recovery was miraculous, "Forget it, don't say They are gone. The ancestors used to say that everyone has their own destiny, and no one else can interfere. Xiao Jin, the big stall in the hall is not enough for you to be busy? If you have time, why not spend more time with him? Come with me, we haven't been together for a few days."

Rong Jin patted his hand away, "The children are still in the room, it's not serious for you to stay here."

Nangong Jingshen moved a little closer, and whispered in his ear with a smile: "If I am serious, wouldn't the child know where he came from?"

Rong Jin spat at him, "The more you talk, the less formal you are."

Nangong Jing smiled deeply and did not refute, she just led him forward, and said: "Come over there in the morning, there are clumps of Lingxiao flowers on the side of the road that are the best, let's sit there and have some refreshments While enjoying the flowers. Before you came back, Pearl also said that a lot of fresh late cherries came out of the kitchen today. She made some cherry rolls. I heard from her that you have a bad appetite these days. You should like this sweet and sour thing. The weather is too cold Is it hot? Or are you too tired recently? You just have a heart that you can’t finish. The future will be long, and you can’t rush to do things. You should understand the principle of haste makes waste.”

"I didn't say anything, and I caused your nagging. This is exactly what I want to tell you today. I just interrupted and almost forgot."

Nangong Jingshen surrendered: "Okay, I won't interrupt you, just go ahead."

Rong Jin put his hand on her waist, which was still flat, but Nangong Jingshen already understood what he meant, "You mean..."

Rong Jin nodded, "I haven't shown it to the imperial physician yet, but it should be close to ten." Having given birth to two babies, I still have some experience, "Do you want a boy or a girl this time?"

No matter how many children there are, it is inevitable to be excited when they hear that they can become fathers again, "Three brats are enough to give us a headache, this time it would be great if it is a beautiful and well-behaved little princess."

Rong Jin smiled and said: "This child is really well-behaved, not noisy at all, probably really a girl, if not, he should be a humble and gentle boy."

"Our children will never make mistakes." Nangong Jingshen is a father who doesn't know how to be humble at all.

Jade embroidered a new bed curtain with lotus flowers on the porch, and looked up to see the two people walking side by side under the tree, and there were relaxed conversations and laughter from time to time, she said to the two little maids beside her: "I don't know what the emperor and the prince are talking about?" What a good thing, I haven't seen the prince so happy for some days."

In February of the ninth year of Jingping, the emperor's second son, Nangong Qianzhi, later Prince Wen, was born in Kunyi Palace.

In September of the same year, Que Jiuzhan left Daning with his two three-year-old daughters and returned to Xiling. Since then, Que Jiuzhan's name has rarely been mentioned. With the convenience of cross-border trade, he rose rapidly and became the leading wealthy businessman in Xiling. The head of the family named Du Yuqiao had an overview of the overall situation, and his vision was precise. Every time he made a move, he benefited. As an imperial merchant, with the protection of the imperial court, the Du family was in the limelight for a while, with shops all over Xiling.While the Du family was quietly rising, another once extremely glorious family quietly declined. In the 13th year of You'an, that is, the 14th year of Daning Lijingping, Chunyu Ji was ambushed and killed on his way back to Beijing, and Chunyu Ran resigned. The official went far away, his whereabouts became a mystery, and Chunyu's family had no successors, and gradually declined, and finally fell into decline.According to the historical records of Xiling, Emperor Yuan had two princesses and two princes in his lifetime, both of whom were born to the same mother. Although this empress enjoyed the favor of a special house during her lifetime, it is strange that she did not receive any title. After the death of Emperor Yuan, The tomb of the emperor is next to Emperor Shun.Some people in later generations speculated that when Emperor Yuan ascended the throne, he only favored the emperor Ah Jiu, which caused Ah Jiu to be jealous and slandered by the concubines in the palace, and eventually died young.

In the summer of the tenth year of Jingping, the emperor approved Luo Jingwen, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, on the taxation reform method, and gradually implemented the new tax collection method across the country.In the spring of the 11th year of Jingping, Prince Rong asked Daxing Tianxia Water Conservancy. At that time, Li You, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, presided over the matter. It has been in operation for several years, its roots are deep and luxuriant, and it is not easy to shake. Prince Rong single-handedly promoted many young talents. Su Xiang has already turned his back on him.So when Prince Rong disregarded the objections of all the courtiers and insisted on this matter, other people really couldn't reverse it. At that time, more than one censor participated in Prince Rong's secret book, and the general idea was the same. If there is a change of heart in the future, the country will suffer great harm, and the emperor should make a decision early.There are also many rumors among the people, which criticize Prince Rong's arbitrariness.

From the 11th year of Jingping, Daning's water conservancy construction lasted for nearly 20 years, consuming almost a quarter of Daning's treasury revenue. Later generations also continued to build, but the solid foundation was in these 20 years. After the construction of the project was completed, the north-south water system was connected, which facilitated waterway transportation, and business exchanges between various places became more frequent. The most important thing is that these water conservancy projects irrigated a large area of ​​wasteland from Danbei to Yunnan, adding more water to Daning. Tens of thousands of acres of fertile land. After many years, Daning, which has undergone various changes, has become the most powerful country on this continent. He is far-sighted and far-reaching.

At the end of the 11th year of Jingping, Nangong Qingzhi, the only princess of the dynasty, was born. She was also the last child of Emperor Jingping and the empress, and the royal family had nothing to do with her since then.

In March of the 12th year of Jingping, the emperor held a grand hundred-day banquet for Princess Qingzhi in Yaoguang Hall.

that night.

"Xiaojin, what hangover soup is it today? Why do you feel dizzy after drinking it?" Nangong Jing rubbed her forehead deeply and leaned against the bed. After drinking the hangover soup brought by Xiaojin herself, people just want to doze off .

Rong Jin handed the dried medicine bowl to the servants, and Funan Gong lay down quietly, "It's the same as before, just added a little sleeping herb, so you can sleep more peacefully at night."

There was nothing wrong with this sentence, but Nangong Jingshen always felt that there was something wrong, and he did not doubt it. He held Rong Jin's hand and said with a smile: "Little Jin, look at how well our Qing Zhi performed today, Yao Guang There are so many people in the palace, she is not stage fright at all, our Qingzhi will definitely be a great princess in the future."

Rong Jin sat beside him and said: "Qing Zhi is so young, how can I see anything, nothing special, I don't expect too much, I only hope that she will be good-natured, grow up happily, and then become a wife , being a mother."

"It's only been three months since Qingzhi stopped. It's too early for you to think about it. You just have to teach the children slowly in the future. The children you teach will never make mistakes."

Rong Jin said: "Jing Zhi and Xing Zhi are 12 years old this year, right and wrong can be understood, I am not very worried, but Ning Zhi, he is not yet six years old, Qian Zhi is only three years old, and Qing Zhi is even worse. Needless to say, with their backgrounds, they are like stars and moons, and there is no shortage of people around them to curry favor with them. In addition, there are not many children in the palace, so the old ancestors and the queen mother will definitely have a lot of pampering and protection, so you don’t want to No matter how arrogant and indulged they are, I still say the same thing. I am happy for them if they can achieve great things when they grow up. If they don’t, I don’t care. Restraint admonition."

The scene in front of her was intermittent, and her consciousness was about to sink into the boundless darkness. Nangong Jing shook her head deeply, and said to Rong Jin, "Little Jin, what's wrong with you today? You've been tired all day. Let's rest, if we have something to say, let's talk about it tomorrow."

Rong Jin raised her head slightly, blinked her eyes, "No, I've finished what I need to say, I'm going back to Linyang."

"Linyang?" The eyelids were so heavy that Nangong Jingshen tried several times to open them. Only then did he notice that Rong Jin had been fully dressed and looked ready to leave at any time. "What happened to Linyang? In such a hurry?"

Rong Jin didn't speak.

"Then when will you come back?" Now the old Prince Rong and his uncle lived in Linyang all the year round, and Xiao Jin went back several times a year, and he never stopped him. Why was it so sudden this time?But he no longer has the heart to think about these things, the darkness is slowly eroding the little clarity he has left.

"I won't come back later."

Nangong Jing frowned deeply, and the hand that was stretched out was empty, "What are you talking about? Xiaojin?"

Rong Jin dodged his hand and got up, looking down at him, thousands of emotions, all kinds of thoughts, settled heavily, only a piece of indifference remained in her eyes, just like the strange indifference when they first met, "The mistakes made by the fathers , I have tried my best to make up for it, although I don’t know if it can heal your pain of losing your father when you were young, but in 13 years, five children are all I can do.” How can there be love at first sight in the world?If it was kept in the dark because of ignorance at the beginning, then various signs later showed that Nangong Jingshen might have wanted to find Wang Rong's mansion to avenge his father's death. and die. "You hate my father, and you also hate my father. It is their reason that Prince Yu was coerced by Princess Dachang, and finally died in battle in northern Xinjiang."

"I have long thought that such a day would come." Unexpectedly, Nangong Jingshen was very calm and admitted without making any excuses. When he knew the truth about his father's death, he hated Uncle Huang and Rongxi, but Uncle Huang He has the kindness of raising and nurturing him, so he can't do anything, so he has been secretly plotting for many years, keeping silent, just to find Rongxi and Nangong Xilan to avenge his father one day. On the first day of meeting, he knew the young man in Tsing Yi He was the eldest son of Prince Rong's mansion. Even he himself couldn't tell whether the sudden out-of-order heartbeat that day was a momentary heartbeat or the excitement of anticipating the imminent avenge of revenge.He had thought about how Rongxi would feel if one day he knew that his beloved son was crushed under him, would he be furious or humiliated?What's ridiculous is that in the day and night relationship in Prince Yu's mansion, he was the one who got stuck first. Maybe from the beginning, revenge was just an excuse he found for himself to get close to and get Rong Jin. Otherwise, how could he face Jiuquanzhi? The father who died under persecution. "When I fell in love with you, I decided to give up revenge on your father."

"I know, I just want to clarify everything before parting. You don't have to worry about this in the future. I will take care of you for many years. Let's take care of each other today." After Rong Jin finished speaking, she didn't look any further and was ready to leave .

"Little Hibiscus..." Nangong Jingshen exhausted all her strength, but the cry she yelled was extremely small, and it didn't spread far. Looking again, she maintained a struggling posture, but she couldn't hold back and fell asleep So he didn't see Rong Jin turn around again.

"Sleep well, everything will be fine tomorrow, live well in the future, take good care of the child's growth, and stay with me." Rong Jin sat by the bed for a long time, knowing that there were repeated reminders from outside the window, He finally got up, and he kissed Nangong Jingshen's forehead, "When I was about to leave many years ago, you forced me to stay. This time, God can't keep me anymore. I'm leaving, Jingshen."

Rong Jin left the Hall of Supreme Harmony in a sedan chair, unexpectedly and somewhat reasonably saw a carriage parked outside.

"My lord, please change the sedan chair and get on the carriage." Waiting outside the carriage was Su Taoniang from the Palace of the Empress Dowager.

"Meet the imperial grandmother."

"Come in and sit down, Aijia will send you this journey." The empress dowager sat facing north, with a kang table in front of it, with all the tea sets on it. Shuixin made a glass and pushed it to him.

Rong Jin took it over, "It's more serious, it's too much work for the emperor's grandmother to take this trip."

"It's okay, you've called my grandmother all these years, and Aijia has nothing to give you. Before you leave, it's always okay to give you a clear message. Is there no room for things to change?"

The horse-drawn carriage was driving on the bluestone road, and the sound of the rolling wheels could be heard far away in the silent palace in the middle of the night, "I thought the emperor's grandmother understood my determination when she agreed to raise Qingzhi on her behalf. Qingzhi is a girl, and she left behind It's always inconvenient to be educated by Jingshen's side, and I will have to bother the emperor's grandmother and queen mother in the future."

"Since you are worried about the child, why don't you stay?" The Empress Dowager's inquiring eyes fell on Rong Jin's face.

"I'm lazy by nature. It's the limit to force myself to stay in the palace for these years. While I'm still young, I can still live the life I want. When I get older, I won't be able to leave. It's taken in, besides, I think the five children should be able to make up for the empress dowager, the empress dowager and Jingshen's pain of losing Prince Yu."

Rong Jin's reason sounds reasonable and reasonable. The Empress Dowager really couldn't find any loopholes in it. Apart from being surprised by his determination, she should be the person who is most reluctant to bear children. "Qing Zhi is the great-granddaughter of the Ai family. It's Daning's princess." Maybe this is just such a princess, "Aijia will take good care of her, if Aijia dies one day, there will always be your mother and queen, don't worry."

"In this case, I would like to thank the emperor's grandmother."

Rong Jin's tea bowl was kept in his hands, but he didn't take a sip from the beginning to the end. Seeing this, the Empress Dowager asked, "Now that I'm getting old, I can't sleep well at night, and I don't dare to eat too much tea, but this Pu'er is better. , Why, Xiao Jin, we are leaving now, are you ready to drink tea from the Ai family?"

"It wasn't that I was suspicious of the emperor's grandmother, it's just that I've made up my mind to go, and I'm always worried that something might go wrong in a small place."

The Empress Dowager smiled, and no longer forced herself, she just took a sip from the bowl in front of her, "Twelve years ago, before Wei Yang entered Beijing, she went to Jiangnan to beg Ai's family."

The Empress Dowager changed the subject very suddenly, but Rong Jin was prepared and quickly picked up the conversation, "I heard him say it." When he was trapped in Prince Yu's mansion 12 years ago, Wei Young went to ask his aunt for help , that is, the empress dowager in front of me now.

"Did you know that there is something called condensed incense in the world?"

Rong Jin's fingers brushed against the bowl without making any sound. After a long time, he said, "I've heard of it." Concentrating his heart and soul, the drugged person can tell the secret that the other party wants unconsciously.

"Wei Young is the best friend of you. Ai Jia didn't expect that your ordinary poison is not easy to get close to you."

"So it was from you that the news was revealed to the Eldest Princess?"

"You're right in saying that. Aijia didn't want to target you at first, but Mei Ying told Aijia that Jingshen had feelings for you that she shouldn't have. Jiang Cheng died young, but those who harmed him can do nothing. How can the Ai family be reconciled to living a burden? The first emperor respected the love of husband and wife for many months. The only child of the Ai family is Jiang Cheng. He can give up the throne to Qiuhu. It is not too much to ask for him to live in peace, but because of them, Jiang Cheng even risked his life. Jingshen has been intelligent since childhood, and has a calm temperament. He is the hope of Aijia and Meiying. Rongxi harmed Jiang Cheng, and let Rongxi's son harm Jingshen. So I can only choose to abandon you. When you were in the water prison, Jingshen went to northern Xinjiang, and you could gain military power in northern Xinjiang in a fair and honest manner, but he got I heard the news that you were sent to prison, and wanted to come back to save you desperately. A Jing Shen who lost all reason and judgment, Aijia knew that you really couldn't stay, but I didn't expect to find out that you turned out to be Qiuhu himself. The child that was born, the child of Rongxi and Qiuhu, is this considered to be the debt of the father. It was Meiying who sent a letter to Jingshen in person, telling her that you were rescued safely. Jingshen still believed in her mother back then. of."

"I'm afraid the Empress Dowager also covered it up."

The Empress Dowager nodded, "That's right. With Mei Ying's own strength, it is easy to hide it from Jing Shen."

"Thank you, old ancestor, for solving my doubts for many years." Although Rong Jin had already guessed most of it, she had no way of knowing the details.

"Old ancestor, we will be at the gate of the palace soon." Su Taoniang reported softly outside.

The Empress Dowager agreed and asked Rong Jin, "The Ai family has been sent here, and the road ahead is yours. Rong Jin, before leaving, can you answer a question for the Ai family?"

"Please speak, Empress Dowager."

"When did you decide to go?"

Rong Jin put down the tea bowl in her hand and replied, "Before getting married."

"So, you offered not to marry Jing Shen in the capacity of Rong Jin that day, and you also have the intention to stay in the future?" Everyone knows that Rong Jin is the Prince Rong of the dynasty, but they don't know that he was also Kun Yi The master of the palace.

"It's meaningless to say these things today. After Rong Jin leaves, let the queen find a reason to die. In the future, he will marry and stand again, and it will have nothing to do with me. The ancestors will take care of their health in the future."

There were people waiting outside the palace gate, and there was already a boat arranged at Tangkou two hundred miles away, and there was no trace of them when they sailed out to sea. In the night, the palace gate slowly closed behind Rong Jin, and the people living inside with his family.

"Let's go." He was originally a person who did not belong to this world, and now he is completely cut off, from ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
