[Red Mansion] Sister Lin's sweet pet after marriage

Suddenly, I heard the noise of people outside, and I saw the chief of the mansion hurriedly approaching, and said: "My lord, there is a distinguished guest. Are you meeting here, or please go to the front hall?"

Seemingly surprised for a moment, Shui Lan returned to her usual elegance, and said slowly: "It's right here." Turning her head and smiling apologetically at Dai Yu: "An unexpected guest came, let me say a few words , Ma’am, please stay away for now.”

Although Daiyu didn't know who came, but seeing Chang Shi's serious expression, she guessed that it should be from the palace.But Shui Lan couldn't see any clues on her face, so Daiyu became suspicious and hid behind the curtain of Hanbitang behind her back, playing by ear.

All the boys hurriedly cleaned the pavilion and washed the cups and dishes.After busying for a while, I saw a young son and two attendants step in, and Shui Lan was waiting inside.

Daiyu looked carefully at that face, it turned out that Emperor Yongqing was here in person, she was suddenly surprised, and paid more and more attention to their words and deeds.

Shui Lan made a false obeisance, and Emperor Yongqing hurriedly picked him up, and said: "Why did our uncle and nephew have such a birth? Today is a private visit in incognito, and you will be exempted from it." Saying this, he ordered his attendants to step down. , I only picked two lanterns in the pavilion, illuminating a bright corner.

Shui Lan watched as he tried his best to disguise, but the gloomy color between his eyebrows revealed his emotions, so he couldn't help but slow down and asked, "Why did your majesty come here?"

"Just walked to the palace." Emperor Yongqing smiled because of Shui Lan's unusual appearance, his eye circles were slightly red and red, and said: "The emperor's taste is so elegant, it seems that he has drunk a lot of wine, and his face is swollen. Redness."

Thinking of the charming feeling just now, Shui Lan smiled softly: "It's not that I just came back this morning. After all, there is no good family on the boat, so I will accompany the princess to eat wine and enjoy the flowers."

Emperor Yongqing glanced at him, and secretly smiled wryly: "My nephew is in dire straits in the capital, but the emperor's uncle went to the south of the Yangtze River to enjoy himself. Is it different fate?"

As soon as the words fell, a hint of sarcasm flashed in Shui Lan's eyes, and his cheeks, which were hot from the smell of alcohol, cooled down a little bit: "Your Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year King, and his blessings are profound. If this fate is not bad, I'm afraid God will There are mourners everywhere below."

Shui Lan's words were uncharacteristically modest and polite. It took Emperor Yongqing a while to react, and said embarrassingly: "It's my nephew who made a slip of the tongue. Although the emperor's uncle didn't go to court, but now the rumors are all over the sky, I'm afraid I know the situation for a while." two."

After stumbling for a while, Emperor Yongqing's expression was solemn, and it was definitely not a joke: "But what the emperor doesn't know is that the emperor hastily recruited Liu Zhongxun from the Prime Minister's Office, Huang Ting, the Secretary of the Household Department, and Prince Zhongshun to enter the palace tonight. What does the emperor think will be discussed? event?"

Shui Lan immediately became alert, frowned and said: "The emperor wants to take you off?"

Emperor Yongqing's back straightened for a moment, his eyes showed a gloomy coldness, and he sneered, "If my elder brothers hadn't died of illness one by one, how could it be my turn to be emperor. It took so much effort, it seems that he intends to reject me! "

Shui Lan didn't hear anything, but her tone was still calm: "Your Majesty, have you thought of a countermeasure?"

Emperor Yongqing shook his head, his smile was almost bitter: "Four kings and eight princes, six ministers, seven clans, nephew is not alone, who else can we count on?"

Shui Lan simply didn't speak, and seemed to completely ignore his emotions.

Seeing that he was always indifferent and as firm as a rock, Emperor Yongqing understood that his heart might not be unreasonable, his face could not help but a layer of sadness, and he said sadly: "There are always tens of thousands of things in the palace that are overwhelming, and you can't breathe." Know what to do. My nephew just feels something in his heart, and he must come out to see the emperor's uncle before he can let it go."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to say any more." Shui Lan finally raised her eyes, and cut off the next words. The words were clear and there was no turning back: "I know what Your Majesty wants to say. Rong Chen thinks about it, and I won't send it far away."

Without waiting for an answer, the lantern above shook slightly, and the water billow had retreated outside the pavilion, leaving Emperor Yongqing alone, speechless for a moment.

After Chang Shidai sent Emperor Yongqing away, Shui Lan unfolded a sheet of Xuelang paper on Han Bitang's desk, and transcribed the four quatrains just now.

After finishing writing, he suddenly sighed: "Madam, come out."

Daiyu let out a light sigh, obviously she hid it very well, she couldn't figure out where her flaws were exposed, she said angrily, "Your Highness must have peeked at it."

The man was rarely silent, and Daiyu came closer. Although the ink on the case was not dry yet, there was a strong and elegant willow body on the paper. While secretly admiring, she asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty is for His Majesty the Emperor." Wouldn’t you be happy if you said that?”

"Other people's business has nothing to do with me." Shui Lan didn't say a word, and carefully dried the copied paper and put it away in the box, then said: "Don't dare to lie to Madam, of course I will take you with me when I travel with you in Gusu." The intention of going home is also to avoid disaster, and I don’t want to get involved in those messy things.”

With three points of understanding between her brows, Daiyu nodded and sighed: "So that's the case. Guaidao said at the time that there was a third reason. The so-called case of forming a party for personal gain, I guess the prince got the information early in the morning."

Shui Lan nodded unobservably: "The king of Beijing County, Shui Rong, has occasional contacts with me. He specially wrote a book the day before yesterday, talking about the situation in court. Besides, I also have other sources of news, so It's not a problem."

After a pause, the handsome face was neither happy nor angry, and he opened his mouth lightly: "In the past, I borrowed the opportunity of the Gusu Restaurant, and Madam also knows a thing or two. The second daughter of Zhi, the three elder brothers above are of high status. In the early years, the father was appointed as the crown prince, and he was very strict with all the brothers except the prince Yizhong. The second is that he is separated from other mothers, and if he gets two points of love, he will ruin the suspicion of other brothers. In fact, the boy was only half a year old, and his father was always suspicious and strong. He was at the peak of his age. Will you think about these?"

The Dugu family was born in Luoyang, Henan Province. After Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, his great-grandfather followed him to conquer the country and made outstanding military exploits. .

Not only that, compared with the decline of other prominent families, the Dugu family has always been prosperous. Duguji alone has six sons. .The eldest grandson, Duguye, was the queen's brother. He became the head of the House of Internal Affairs, moved to Zhili as the deputy capital commander of the garrison, and was appointed as the minister of the guards. Later, the emperor seized all the officials of his clan, so he said he was not sick.

It's a pity that the emperor's majestic talents have not been fully displayed, and the rheumatism of his legs in his early years has left him disabled, and he can no longer discuss politics in front of the court.After ascending the throne, Dugu Ye's two younger brothers have all recovered, and he has three other sons who are all officials in the court. All of them have outstanding literary and military talents.

As the saying goes, one mountain cannot contain two tigers, and the father and son of the Tian family are drifting apart. Sooner or later, the two forces will be in a state of wrestling with each other, and Shui Lan naturally knows it well.

Seeing Shuilan's brows frowning coldly, Daiyu reached out to wipe the sweat off his forehead, and her soft voice carried a strange comfort: "Look at the hot sweat on this side, it's all a thing of the past, why are you excited?"

Suddenly grasping her slender hand, Shui Lan's face was still brightly rosy, and there was a faint smell of alcohol on her body: "Ma'am, he looks shy and childish now, but he has good intentions inside. He also looked at me and Shui Rong who have a shallow foundation. , and the emperor’s confidants are not in the same place, so once I agree, I will take a completely different path from now on.”

"Originally, a person came and went naked without concern, even if he became a king or a thief, there was nothing to complain about." Shui Lan looked at her motionless for a moment, her eyes were astonishingly bright, and her voice was indescribably hoarse: "But now ,I have you."

Daiyu was stunned for a long time, only feeling more earnest than what she had pulled out from her heart, she was burning hot for a while, and looked at him deeply: "My lord is naked alone, and I have nothing to worry about, but let's go together We have become a family, we should share weal and woe, and bear the burden together. No matter what the prince chooses, I and the prince are of one mind, so what are we to worry about?"

The next moment, the whole face was pressed against a warm chest unexpectedly, Shui Lan's chin pressed against the top of her hair, and whispered softly in his ear: "If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?"

After hearing this, Daiyu couldn't help but feel that her cheeks were flushed, and the true match overwhelmed the beauty of the peach blossoms. She said in a low voice, "Since we grow old together, we should go through hardships together."

The author has something to say: In the author's heart, Daiyu has always been a courageous woman.
