Xing Xiuyan's Life in the Red Mansion

Xing Xiuyan sat on the carriage, played clapping games with Ling'er, and wandered back to the Hou Mansion.

After returning, Xing Xiuyan found out that not only the crown prince came, but also the princess concubine. The couple came for a private visit and brought their eldest son Zhao Mingli, "Li'er heard that Aunt Rong's cousin is back, I've always wanted to see it, but unfortunately, when Ling'er entered the palace, he was studying. No, I happened to have time today, so I brought Li'er here." Zhao Yuan said with a smile, "I came in a hurry , Auntie, don't be offended!"

The eldest princess smiled and said: "Why would you be offended? I'm very happy that you guys can come. Ling'er is new here, and I don't have any friends around me. Li'er, you are a few years older than Ling'er. You usually take your younger brother with you."

Zhao Mingli is six years old this year, and most of the royal family's children are precocious, not to mention that he is the eldest grandson carefully cultivated by the prince and princess, and his etiquette and manner are impeccable. He walked up to Murong Ling and raised his head, "Brother Ling'er , come down, I am your brother Ming Li, you can call me brother Li."

Murong Ling looked at Xing Xiuyan, saw that she was looking at him encouragingly, nodded, twisted her body and got out of Xing Xiuyan's arms, walked up to Zhao Mingli, and timidly called out, "Brother Li!"

Zhao Mingli nodded in satisfaction, took Murong Ling's hand, and asked one by one: "How old is my brother? Did you ever go to school? What books did you study? What do you usually like to play?"

The eldest princess and the others looked at the pair of cousins ​​getting along with satisfaction, and nodded repeatedly, "How old is Li'er, she is quite sensible."

Murong Ling was left speechless by Zhao Mingli's question. He didn't know how to answer, so he could only look at Xing Xiuyan for help.

With the crown prince and concubine present, Xing Xiuyan couldn't interrupt rashly, so he could only look at Murong Ling reassuringly, signaling him not to be afraid.

Seeing this, Yun Qingran walked over and hugged the two children. Zhao Mingli has always regarded himself as an adult and refused to be hugged after the age of four. He blushed with shame, "Cousin, let me go!" come down."

Yun Qingran suppressed a smile, put Zhao Mingli down, and then squatted on the ground with Murong Ling in his arms, "Mingli, brother Ling'er has studied before, but something happened to him, he was frightened, memory It's a bit vague, I don't remember these things, so, I will have to trouble Ming Li to teach my younger brother a lot in the future."

Zhao Mingli was placed on the ground, and he straightened his clothes first. Seeing that there were no wrinkles and smooth, he nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will. Father, can brother Ling'er go to the study?"

Zhao Yuan nodded, "Okay, after a while, Brother Linger will go to study when he gets better."

Zhao Mingli thought for a while, "Xiao Shunzi, when you go back, you can send the books I have read to your cousin." A servant nodded, "Yes, Your Highness."

Zhao Mingli said solemnly to Murong Ling: "I don't know what your basics are, I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up with the progress after entering the upper study. Those books are all read by me before, and they are good for enlightenment. Read it yourself first. If you don’t understand anything, just ask me again.”

Murong Ling nodded foolishly, "Oh!"

Zhao Mingli frowned, this little cousin is just like a silly little white rabbit, with such a temperament, he won't be eaten by others in the palace!What annoyance, it seems that besides the second brother Mingliang, there will be one more person I will be covering in the future. "You can't be so stupid. You can't do this in the palace. Forget it, after you enter the palace, just follow me. If you need anything!"

Murong Ling nodded joyfully, "Brother Li, if you go to the palace to study, can I bring more people?"

Bring more people?Does it mean the servant?Which one of the current emperors and nobles brought many people with them when they went out, this is normal!Zhao Mingli nodded without thinking too much. "Okay, you can take as much as you want!"

Murong Ling's eyes lit up, and he said joyfully, "I don't want to bring a lot, can I just bring my sister?" Then he also pointed out to Zhao Mingli who this sister is worthy of?

Everyone's eyes were on Xing Xiuyan in an instant. Xing Xiuyan, who was in a daze thinking about the affairs of Jia's mansion, realized that he had become the focus of everyone's attention, and asked blankly, "What, what's wrong? What happened?" ?”

The eldest princess suppressed a smile, "Ling'er asked Mingli if he could take you to the study together!"

"What?" Xing Xiuyan's eyes widened.

Yun Qingran was amused by her reaction, and couldn't help laughing, "It's true, if you don't believe me, ask Mingli."

Zhao Mingli frowned and looked at Xing Xiuyan carefully, "She is so old, does she still want to study? Isn't it suitable?"

Xing Xiu's smoke is bad, she is only fourteen, okay, why is she so old?But the other party is the eldest son of the crown prince, with a high status, she dare not say anything, if it were before, she would definitely go up and compete with him.unacceptable!

The Crown Princess pursed her lips and smiled, because Xing Xiuyan's expression was so amused, "Mingli, what are you talking about! Lady Xing is a fourth-rank female official appointed by your grandfather, who is responsible for teaching and taking care of the son. When the son enters the palace to study, she naturally I can be with you now."

After Zhao Mingli heard this, he hurriedly looked at Xing Xiuyan, "You are the female official Xing who saved Ling'er's brother! I have heard about you for a long time, and you are like thunder. I was the one who took the liberty just now."

After listening for a long time, Murong Ling seemed to mean that his sister could enter the palace with him, but he asked uncertainly, "Brother Li, can my sister enter the palace with me to study?"

Zhao Mingli nodded and patted Murong Ling's head, "Yes, yes."

Murong Ling was happy, turned around, ran out of Yun Qingran's arms, ran to Xing Xiuyan, hugged her thigh and said joyfully, "Sister, you can study now, are you happy?"

Xing Xiuyan nodded with a strong smile, "Yes, happy!" When she coaxed Murong Ling to study a few days ago, she inadvertently said that you still have a place to study, how lucky you are. Aunt Miaoyu was kind enough to teach me for several years.You have to cherish it!Unexpectedly, the child would keep these words in his heart.It's just that, silly Ling'er, what you don't know is that I entered the palace to take care of you, not to study with you.

Yun Qingran looked outside and said with a smile: "Mingli, let's take my brother to the garden to play. Okay?"

Zhao Mingli nodded and waved to Murong Ling. When he came over, he took Murong Ling's little hand and said, "In addition to studying, you should also go outside for more activities, so that your body will be healthy and you won't have to take hard medicine. Remember Are you staying?" His words and deeds are like a big brother.

Murong Ling also acted like a younger brother, nodding his head and saying, "Understood, Brother Li! I listen to you!"

Zhao Mingli is satisfied, this cousin is very nice, he listens to me very well, unlike the second younger brother, who is obedient on the surface, and later complained to his mother and concubine. "Let's go, I'll take you to see the fish."

Before Zhao Mingli left, he still did not forget to say hello to the eldest princess and the others, "Grandmother, father and concubine, I took brother Ling'er out to play. Xiao Shunzi, bring some snacks and water, brother Ling'er just came back. What if you're hungry."

Xing Xiuyan looked at Zhao Mingli with a natural attitude and thoughtful thoughts, and she felt a lot in her heart. It seems that Ling'er will have her own playmate soon, and the day when she leaves is coming soon.Although she didn't intend to dedicate her life to Ling'er, she still felt a little sad when she thought that Ling'er no longer needed her.

Murong Ling followed Zhao Mingli for a few steps, then suddenly turned around, "Sister!" He seemed to be asking, why don't you leave, sister?

Xing Xiuyan was stunned for a moment, with a bright smile on his face, he blessed the eldest princess and the others, and then said with a smile: "Hey, here we come." She walked to Murong Ling's side, and took Murong Ling's hand naturally , went out together.

Yun Qingran was worried, and said something to the eldest princess and Zhao Yuan, "I'll follow and watch." Then he ran away without waiting for them to speak.

After Yun Qingran and the others left, Zhao Yuan looked at the maids around him. The eldest princess heard Xiange's elegance, and with a wink, the servants all retreated outside.

Seeing this, Zhao Yuan put down his teacup and asked straightforwardly: "Auntie, do you really agree to Qingran marrying this Xing family?"

The eldest princess smiled, "What? Can't it? The Xing family is very good, and she has a relationship with the Yun family. The matter of Ling'er and Yan Ran are all thanks to her. Both Qingran and I think she is very good."

"However, the Xing family's status is low, how can they be Mrs. Yongping Hou?" Zhao Yuan asked anxiously. He and Yun Qingran had a good relationship, and he also wanted to win over this cousin. Of course, it's just not stated.

"Yuan'er, my dynasty has only been established for more than a hundred years. The Emperor Taizu was only a monk back then, and the ancestor of the Yun family was a pig-killer. If you think about it carefully, who is more noble than whom? After death, Isn't it Huang Tu? What's the identity? What's the status? Qingran is already the hereditary Marquis of Yongping, why can't he marry a woman who agrees with him? Why would I bother to do that thing of beating mandarin ducks! "The princess laughed.

"If you really like her, you can marry her as your concubine. You just need to pamper her a little more on weekdays. Why do you have to marry her as your wife?" Zhao Yuan was still persuading.

"Yuan'er, doting on concubines and destroying wives is the source of disaster for the family. The Yun family does not allow such a thing to happen. I only have one son in this life, so I naturally hope that he will be safe and happy. He has been sensible since he was a child and never asked me for anything. The only time, Even Mrs. Xing, I didn't want to agree at first, but I still couldn't bear to let him down. Besides, Mrs. Xing is a person I can trust and like very much. There is a saying that is good, don't look at others for yourself, only for others. She He Ling'er, who is dedicated to Yan Ran and is a trustworthy person, it is a blessing for the Yun family to have such a mistress." The eldest princess glanced at Zhao Yuan and said, "I heard that you sent that side concubine Ling The feet are grounded, very good, it should have been done this way. You, the princess, are too soft-tempered! It's time to deal with her, and embarrass the East Palace for nothing."

Speaking of Concubine Ling, Zhao Yuan was embarrassed.

The author has something to say: the name has been changed, the crown prince's eldest son, Zhao Mingli, second son, Zhao Mingliang, and third son, Zhao Mingyao.The front was also changed by the way.
