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

It has been more than half a year since I left the capital, during which time others have paid it back, Empress Meng Yuyu often ordered people to bring some things to Daiyu, even though they were not rare items, or a pair of beads, or a booklet, they were exquisite and elegant, It was very pleasing to the heart, and she showed her intentions everywhere, which Daiyu was very grateful for.

Therefore, once the collection is completed, they will enter the palace according to the etiquette to greet the queen mother and queen.Today is no better than when the emperor was still there. The Meng family was more valuable in the previous dynasty, and the empress dowager also felt a little alienated from Daiyu. Daiyu is also a proud character, and she doesn't bother to flatter her. go.

When I came to the Queen's Kunning Palace, I saw the yellow leaves rustling in the courtyard, the cold dew was clear, I couldn't help frowning, thinking: The Queen always likes to tidy up flowers and plants, what happened, she didn't even take care of this garden.

Guided by the female officer, Daiyu walked along the veranda to the bedroom where she usually lived. She saw that Meng Yuyu had lost a lot of weight, her cheeks were slightly sunken, her bright eyes were deeper, and she was indescribably haggard.

Daiyu approached, and as soon as she bent her knees, Meng Yuyu took her hand, waved away all the maidservants beside her, and twitched the corner of her lower lip bitterly: "In a blink of an eye, another half a year has passed. , I have also inquired several times, luckily my sister is outside and everything is fine.”

When the two of them met each other in private, they didn't call them Auntie or Bengong, they still called them like sisters before leaving the court, so Daiyu didn't care.

Moreover, although Daiyu doesn't think much of the present, she has always been very kind to Meng Yuyu.Seeing her dejected face, she quietly asked: "What's wrong with your mother, is there something wrong?"

For some reason, Meng Yuyu's eye circles immediately turned red, and she choked up and said, "It's not my eldest prince. He has been suffering from wind and cold since the beginning of autumn, and his illness has come and gone. He has never recovered. This time, he has a high fever for two consecutive days. Back, the child is so young and can't speak, so it's useless to suffer. The imperial physician just came to report in fear, saying that the eldest prince has aversion to wind and cold, yellow tongue, fever and cough, which are signs of lung heat."

When Daiyu heard this, her brows curved slightly, and she said in surprise: "How could the eldest prince be infected with such a vicious disease? Didn't he be fine before leaving Beijing, only the moss on his back?"

Meng Yuyu pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, and sighed: "I can only tell my sister about this. The eldest prince's umbilical cord is wrapped around his neck, and he can hardly breathe. The imperial doctors have treated her." After a long time, Fang gradually turned around. From then on, whenever there is a little wind outside, I will cough and have a fever, no matter how meticulous the nurses take care of, there will always be times when I don’t know my head.”

As a mother, Daiyu couldn't help sighing again and again: "It's such a small child who has suffered so much. The eldest prince has not recovered from his illness. Didn't the emperor say anything?"

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard the sound of a bleak wind, blowing many fallen leaves and hitting the panes.Meng Yuyu smiled, but the smile was colder than the autumn wind outside, and her face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost: "The emperor's thoughts now, just welcomed the Zhen family into the palace, such a grand battle, There is no time to see the First Prince."

Daiyu knew in her heart that there was a reason for water waves in this matter.

On that day, Emperor Yongqing ordered the prince to return to Beijing early because of the Meng family's communication with foreign officials.After seeing Shuilan, he seems to regret what he did in the past, especially when he treated some neutral veterans too harshly. Water Lan's countermeasures.

Shui Lan thought about it for a while, and suggested to find a suitable old minister to recover as an example, so as to temporarily ease the relationship with others, so he proposed Jiangnan Zhenjia and other candidates.Within a few days, Emperor Yongqing set out to order the Ministry of Criminal Justice to overturn the case, and ordered to welcome Zhen's daughter-in-law into the palace, canonize her as a concubine, and love her so much that others will lag behind.

Not only that, because of his dissatisfaction with Duke Fu, Emperor Yongqing has been very indifferent to the queen recently, but he just keeps face.The Eldest Prince's health is not good, Meng Yuyu put all her heart on the child, she hasn't slept with her for two months, the estrangement between the emperor and empress is deepening day by day.

The relationship between Daiyu and Shui Lan has always been very good, and she thought that such a stalemate between husband and wife is not a matter, so she persuaded her: "Your Majesty is a person with a good manner, and there were women from the Huihe tribe and Li Chaojin who entered the palace before, but there was not a single one. Don't worry, why bother to be angry for a Zhen family and His Majesty."

Unexpectedly, Meng Yuyu's face darkened immediately, and she clenched the handkerchief in her hand, with tears in her eyes: "My sister knows, how can I take ordinary things to heart. The emperor doesn't care about me." It doesn't matter if you retreat, but since the first prince was seriously ill, he has been hanging around in the imperial concubine's palace every day. How many sisters in the palace have come to cry and complain, and even the queen mother has taught him a few words. How did your majesty listen to it? Two days ago, look For such a big event as Guo Qiuli, you brought Concubine Zhen to preside over it, do you really think I am dead?"

In this dynasty, the custom of looking forward to the autumn ceremony is intended to worship the mighty emperor and celebrate the harvest of the harvest. It is an important festival in the royal family.According to the tradition, usually the emperor and empress go up to the roof hand in hand, leading civil and military officials, and all the wives to perform a ceremony to pray for a good harvest in the coming year.Now that the Zhonggong is alive and well, the emperor left Meng Yuyu by his side and brought Zhen's family to pay respects. I am afraid that the rumors about the abolished empress will be raging in the air in the near future.

After figuring out the cause and effect, Daiyu couldn't help laughing: Although Shui Lan came up with the idea, Emperor Yongqing seemed to insist on using it to the extreme every time, and didn't understand the principle of rigidity and fragility.The clay figurine still had a three-point temperament. Meng Yuyu was born noble, no matter how virtuous and gentle she was, she couldn't tolerate such a blatant humiliation. No wonder she felt disinterested in the emperor, it's really sad and lamentable.

Meng Yuyu had a fit, and seemed to have exhausted a lot of energy, with a weary smile on her lips: "Forget it, I said everything I should say today in front of my sister, and I feel very happy."

Daiyu sighed slightly, and persuaded in a reasonable manner: "Your Majesty is a lucky person, don't worry about those messy things, the eldest prince's illness is the most important thing right now. The rest of the things will last forever, and if the Zhen family is favored by the emperor, she will always be a concubine. , it can't be compared to the empress who is the first wife of the middle palace, and Fang is a woman who stands shoulder to shoulder with the emperor."

Hearing this, Meng Yuyu touched the golden phoenix embroidered pattern on her clothes, her expression was very sad: "You are right, since I got the phoenix lottery in Ninghua Temple that day, I have been here for this supreme honor. Come on. It's just that now, it seems that everything is false, and only my eldest prince is real."

Seeing this, Daiyu knew that she was hurt by the scene and was disappointed, and it was useless to persuade her, so she could only smile and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry too much. When the First Prince recovers, your Majesty and the Emperor will recover naturally."

Talking about the eldest prince, Meng Yuyu shed tears again, but Daiyu persuaded him with great difficulty, and she left after some comfort.After saying goodbye for a while, before leaving the curved corridor of Kunning Palace, she suddenly heard the sound of ding-dong from the piano in the hall, Daiyu knew that it must be Meng Yuyu who was playing, so she couldn't help but stop and listen for a long while.

The tone fit the master's mood, very clear and sad, Daiyu was still feeling secretly, only hearing the strings "bounce" and broke, she couldn't help but suddenly changed color, and went away without a word, a Her heart was pounding, she thought to herself: This breaking of the strings is not a good omen, and the Empress is worried about the Eldest Prince, and there is a rift with the Emperor, could something bad happen?

Still thinking about it, suddenly a touch of fiery red came into view, like a cluster of anthurium flowers blooming vigorously, gorgeous and bright to the extreme.

Everyone in the palace prides themselves on their status, vermilion is only available to the queen of the palace, this kind of red is really conspicuous, isn't it because they are not afraid of being popular?

As Daiyu was thinking, her eyes moved upwards, only to see a beautiful woman leaning on the flower stand, the red dress concealed the beauty, even though the imperial garden was full of purples and reds, she looked extraordinarily beautiful.

She had a lazy expression on her face, and her green fingers were inadvertently playing with flowers and branches. When she looked up, she suddenly saw Daiyu's face. The palace has not knelt down to salute."

Daiyu also kept her mouth shut, raised her eyebrows and looked her up, sneered, "I don't know if you can bear my kneeling."

When the woman heard this, her cheeks turned bright red instantly, and the lady next to her gave her a wink, and hurriedly reached out her hand to help her.He whispered something in her ear again, before he bowed to Daiyu and respectfully said: "My maidservant greets the concubine. Our concubine Zhen just woke up from her afternoon nap, and she is still a little sleepy."

The Zhen family is the emperor's concubine, but Daiyu is the first wife of Lian Wang and the emperor's elder, so Zhenfei should be a head lower than Daiyu.Although Mrs. Zhen was reluctant, she still knew the seniority and inferiority, so she had to bow to Daiyu and say a word of blessing.

Because of what Empress Meng said earlier, Daiyu also had no intention of making false claims with her, so she dismissed it with a light nod.After turning around the imperial garden, she involuntarily turned her head and looked at Kunning Palace again, Meng Yuyu's sad expression and Zhen's arrogant arrogance appeared in front of her eyes, and she felt a little sad in her heart.

As I was thinking about it, I saw a group of people from Kunning Palace walk into the courtyard, and after a while, there were cries and shouts, floating out intermittently like the wind, which made people's hair stand on end.

The author has something to say: Daiyu, who has become an adult, is not sad for the spring and autumn, but the things she thinks are always a little different from when she was a girl.
