After rebirth, mother and son are

No matter how lively the main courtyard is, Jinglan Garden is like another world.

Qi Zhong asked someone to bring Shaoyao and Zhiqing back, and the people in Jinglan Garden gave Xiao Zhaner a simple and warm birthday.Satisfied with wine and food, Haitang and Shaoyao cleared the dining table, and several people sat around chatting.

Haitang couldn't help telling Shaoyao and Zhiqing about the situation when the little guy caught Zhou. Even after hearing it, Si Wei still found it funny, and the adults in the room laughed heartily.

Qiao'er didn't know why the adults laughed, but everyone laughed, and he couldn't help opening his mouth.Zhan'er saw that her little brother was also laughing, and she kept laughing "giggling", and even collapsed on the low couch exaggeratedly laughing, which made the adults laugh even more happily.

Whether it is lively or warm, when the sun sets and the day ends, no matter how lively and joyful it is, it will become a thing of the past.When the sun rises again, a new day begins, and new joys, sorrows and joys will follow.

I don't know if Si Wei's strategy worked. Qi Rongxiao really found out that his wife is capable of socializing and running the house internally, or maybe it was because of guilt for the slap that night. In short, the relationship between the young couple has eased a lot. few.

The relationship between the young couple is not a sweetheart, but at least it is much better than before, when Qi Rongxiao saw his wife and couldn't get angry.Liu Minyi's mood improved a lot, and when the concubines received the money, they let go of their hands.The tense atmosphere at home eased a lot.

Finally, the Qi family had a peaceful life for a few days, but such days were only a few days away.This morning, before dawn, the door of Qi's house was knocked.Not long after, a young servant ran quickly to the door of Jin Ping's room, "Master, master, get up quickly, Lord Hou just sent someone to say that the adults in the capital who delivered the decree are about to leave the county, so you should hurry up and get ready." .”

Master Qi fought on his concubine Jin Ping until midnight last night. At this time, he was sleeping soundly while holding his concubine's delicate and soft body. When he was woken up by the servant, he woke up very angry, but he understood what the servant was talking about. , she lost all anger, hurriedly pushed Jin Ping away, picked up her clothes and put them on her body.

Jin Ping was young and handsome, Master Qi doted on her so much on weekdays, and never got up from her bed so impatiently.Jin Ping sat up lazily hugging the quilt, "Master is in such a hurry, could it be that this edict is for you?"

"No!" Master Qi hurriedly buttoned his buttons, and said casually, "It's for Madam." A few days ago, when his son asked Qi Zhong to deliver a message, he was by his side, so he knew roughly what the edict was about. .

"Get up quickly, everyone will be there when the order is received!" After giving these instructions, Master Qi opened the door and followed the young man to leave quickly. The new clothes he made for the order are still in Jinglanyuan Well, I have to change it quickly.

At the same time, Jing Lanyuan also received a notification from Lord Hou.Si Wei was dragged up from the bed by Haitang and Shaoyao while he was half asleep and half awake, and put on his makeup.

"Aww~" Si Wei dozed off and Haitang pulled his hair sorely, he woke up with a jerk, "Haitang, my hair grows in the flesh, not on the ground, can we be lighter?"

"Master, are you awake?" Haitang dexterously twisted Si Wei's hair back and forth, making it into a beautiful bun, "How could I hurt you if you were not dozing off? But just right, you're awake, right?" few."

Si Wei couldn't refute Haitang's words, he opened his mouth and then closed it, obediently tossing about Haitang and Shaoyao.Through the blurred bronze mirror, Si Wei couldn't see how Haitang made his face, but he could see what Haitang was doing without the bronze mirror. "Wait," Si Wei turned his head away from the hairpin that Haitang brought over, she had just inserted three or four hairpins and pearls on his head, "You've got quite a few, isn't it almost the same? "

"Master, you want to accept the imperial edict! Of course, you have to dress up beautifully and with jewels!" Haitang straightened Si Wei's head and continued to insert a hairpin on his head.

"It's just an order and it's not a catwalk..." Before Si Wei finished speaking, he was interrupted by the cry of little Zhan'er on the rocker, "Zhan'er is awake, okay, okay, I'm going..."

"Master, don't move!" Haitang and Shaoyao shouted in unison. "Master, I haven't finished it yet, don't move!" Shao Yao spoke first.

"That's right, I'm going to see the young master, master, don't move!" Haitang went to dress Zhan'er, and carried him to Si Wei. "The young master woke up and didn't see the master, and he lost his temper."

Hearing this, Si Wei got up quickly and reached out to hug the little guy to comfort him, but little Zhan'er glanced at him, turned his head and threw himself into Haitang's arms.

Si Wei was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses, "What have you done to me? Why doesn't Zhan'er recognize me?"

Hearing Si Wei's voice, Zhan'er raised her head and looked back at Si Wei.It seemed to be sure that the person in front of him was the one who often hugged and played with him.

"Master, look, the young master is just dumbfounded!" Haitang explained with a guilty conscience, they seemed to have painted the master too glamorously.

It just so happened that Qiao'er came in from the door at this time, and called uncertainly: "Brother...brother?" He reported Qiao'er, who had tidied up neatly, to his brother's room, but only saw a room full of women.Well, he has seen his brother disguised as a woman, but...

"Qiao'er?" Hearing the hesitation in his younger brother's voice, Si Wei immediately rushed to the copper basin for washing his face, and a woman so beautiful that she could be listed was reflected in it, "Begonia! Peony! What are you doing to me!"

After yelling, Si Wei washed his face with water. "Hey, master, you can't wash it!" Shao Yao hurriedly stepped forward to stop her but still took a full step, the makeup on Si Wei's face had already been washed off by him.She simply didn't stop her anymore and let Si Wei clean up.

"Put on light makeup so that no one can see that I'm a man!" Si Wei walked back to the dressing table, and said to Haitang behind him through the bronze mirror, "Then take off all the beads and gold hairpins for me." , the hairpin must be made of jade, and this mahogany one is also good."

"Master! You are the protagonist today! Normally, it's fine if you don't like to dress up, but what if you are compared to those women today?" Haitang hugged the little guy tightly in her arms.After Si Wei washed his face, the little guy had already recognized that he was the person he was looking for, so he couldn't stay in Haitang's arms any longer.

"That's just right! In contrast, the more gorgeously they dress up, the more fresh and refined I look!" What Si Wei thought in his heart was, if I am a man, if I dress more beautifully than women, is there any reason?After some haggling, Shao Yao replaced the bead flowers on Si Wei's head with hosta, picked some golden hairpins, and remade her makeup according to the standard when she first met Lord Hou.

At this time, Mr. Qi, who had been called around in every concubine's room, came to Jinglan Garden and saw Si Wei's makeup, "It's not bad, but it's a little more plain."

"It's fine if you don't see that I'm a man. Don't you want to be alluring and glamorous? Does the master think that's acceptable?" Si Wei felt that this group of people didn't think of him as a man anymore!

"Didn't it look pretty just now?" Haitang muttered softly, although she always felt that there was something awkward about it.

"Master, Master Hou has sent someone to remind you again!" Qi Zhong, who was letting the wind outside the door, shouted into the room.Si Wei gave up the argument, changed into new clothes, and came to the main courtyard with Master Qi.

The gate of Qi Mansion has been opened, and there is an incense table facing the gate, Qi Rongxiao and others have already stood in their respective positions and waited.

Master Qi quickly stood up in his place, and Si Wei stood beside him holding Zhan'er.Originally, Zhan'er was supposed to be hugged by the maid, but Zhan'er stuck to Si Wei tightly, hanging on him and refused to get off, so Si Wei let him go.

Seeing this, Qi Rongxiao frowned, and walked up to Si Wei to pick off his son.This was the first time Si Wei and Qi Rongxiao got so close after eating together, and both of them felt a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

"Zhan'er, come down!" The child was held in the arms of the stepmother, Qi Rongxiao naturally couldn't reach out to hug him, so he had to say it.But Zhan'er is just a milk doll who just finished catching Zhou, how could he really understand what his father said?Anyway, just hug Si Wei's neck tightly and don't let go.

Qi Rongxiao frowned even more, wanting his wife to come over and hug his son, but he heard someone shouting outside the door: "The imperial decree is here!"

Now, Qi Rongxiao didn't care who was holding his son, and returned to his position to stand still.Not long after, a man with the appearance of a eunuch appeared in front of the gate of the Qi family and shouted in a shrill voice, "The imperial decree has arrived!"

Qi Rongxiao took the lead and knelt down and shouted: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

After everyone finished shouting, the eunuch held up the imperial decree of Minghuang, walked to the incense table with square steps, and read aloud: "By heaven, the emperor ordered, check..."

To be honest, Si Wei didn't quite understand what the eunuch read, but words like "Kong", "gentle and courteous", "benevolent, filial and virtuous" were still intelligible, as well as "Mrs. "I can also hear clearly.Si Wei felt a little confused, he was named the imperial wife? !

"Madam, thank you?" After the incense case, the eunuch had finished reading the imperial decree and said to Liu Minyi.

Liu Minyi looked at Si Wei on the other side in a daze, and Si Wei quickly kowtowed. "Father-in-law, my mother was congenitally dumb, and I thank Lord Long En on behalf of my mother."

"Uh, huh? Oh." The eunuch passing the decree pointed to Liu Minyi, who was holding the child and kowtowing Si Wei.He had never met Mrs. Marquis Qi'an before, and he thought that the delicate and clean woman holding the child was Qi Rongxiao's wife, and wanted to say that they were really a couple, but he didn't expect it to be Lord Hou's stepmother.I heard that Hou Ye's father is not dedicated, just look at the group of beautiful women kneeling behind him, no wonder the emperor wants to break the rules and seal this young lady as his wife.

After all, this eunuch had seen the world by the emperor's side, and he only lost his composure for a moment, and then said: "Master Hou, the emperor has another order for you. Before leaving, the emperor specially ordered that this order not be read out in public, so Shall we change places?"

"Oh, yes!" Qi Rongxiao stood up and led the way, "Eunuch, please!" When Qi Rongxiao disappeared from sight with the eunuch and his entourage, the main courtyard suddenly became lively.

It is expected that several concubines will be noisy.There is also the housekeeper of the Qi Mansion in the capital who came with the eunuch who passed the decree, who was waiting outside the door just now, and now that the decree has been delivered, he brought a large group of people in.

The not-so-small main courtyard suddenly seemed a little crowded. Amidst the din, no one noticed that Si Wei, who had an ugly face, led the people from Jinglanyuan to leave quietly...

The author has something to say: about the passage about Mrs. Gaoming, Ye Zi asked Du Niang, "Mrs. In ancient times, officials of the first to fifth ranks were called patents, and officials of the sixth to ninth ranks were called edicts. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a very complete imperial seal system was formed. Officials of the first to fifth ranks were granted imperial orders, and officials of the sixth to ninth ranks were granted imperial edicts. Order, the wife follows the husband's rank, so there is a saying in the past that "the wife of the order". The wife of the order is related to the official position of the husband. There is a salary, but no real power."

According to Du Niang, Si Wei, as Qi Rongxiao's stepmother, cannot be granted the title of Mrs. Gaoming. Fortunately, Ye Zi's article is empty, and the guest officials should not refer to the real history.
