Long Xiao wipes Qingfeng

Chapter 6 On the Role of Feudal Superstition

In March of Yangchun, the singing of Yingying is melodious.

The newlywed son-in-law Zhong Shuo lay beside the sleeping bride, and slowly opened his eyes.

Inappropriate, out of decency.

Xiao Jiu was still asleep, Zhong Shuo turned over slowly, put himself in a decent posture with his back up, felt it for a while, then got up and passed Xiao Jiu to get out of bed.

According to the rules, the son-in-law should sleep on the outer side of the emperor's concubine so that it is convenient to serve the emperor's concubine, but both of them are men, so there is no need to be so particular. After the two of them talked last night, Xiao Jiu occupied the outer position. Zhong Shuo had no choice but to sleep on the side. To the inside, Yichen has to pass Xiao Jiu when he gets out of bed.

As soon as he got out of bed, Xiwen gently opened the door with a few maidservants and walked in.

Seeing that he was already up, Xi Wen stepped forward to salute, and called a maidservant behind him to change his clothes, Zhong Shuo refused: "No need, just serve Di Ji."

Xiwen looked at him in surprise, but did not insist, and waved the maidservants to walk behind him, and Zhong Shuo also went behind the screen to get dressed.

After he washed and changed his clothes, he came out and saw Xiao Jiu standing with her make-up on, eyes closed and let Xiwen fiddle with her.

Xiao Jiu has a thin waist and a tall stature, half a head taller than Zhong Shuo, and the layered imperial concubine costumes are very commensurate.

Xiao Jiu opened his eyes to look at him, and said with a smile, "Your son-in-law is so handsome, even Yong Mu would be ashamed."

Zhong Shuo said: "Your Highness has won the prize, and your highness's beauty also makes me overwhelmed."

Xiao Jiu raised his eyebrows and called affectionately: "My son-in-law."

Zhong Shuo replied, "Your Highness."

Xi Wenli took care of Xiao Jiu's clothes, took out a blood-stained handkerchief from his sleeve, and said expressionlessly: "Your Highness, please have a look."

Xiao Jiu took it over and looked at it, then nodded and said, "Let's hand it over to the nanny outside."

Zhong Shuo saw the handkerchief look away for a moment, and after Xi Wen went out, he said to Xiao Jiu, "Your Highness, you can go and pay your respects."

He said he was paying his respects, but Zhong Shuo was the only one who knelt down, and Xiao Jiu only served tea to his parents-in-law.

Zhong Hanjiang was the only son, and the Zhong family had no other relatives, so only Zhong Hanjiang and Mrs. Yu were sitting in the hall, and the two younger ones were accompanied by maidservants and mothers.

After Zhong Shuo knelt down, Xiao Jiu offered tea to Shi Yu, Shi Yu hurriedly took it, took a sip carefully, and gave Xiao Jiu the jewelry she had prepared, Xi Wen stepped forward to accept it decently, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a real fight face to face.

Yu Shi had heard that Emperor Yongmu was spoiled and domineering, and she was a little afraid of dancing with spears and clubs all day long, but when they met today, Xiao Jiu's manners were not bad at all, so it can be seen that he respected her, and seeing Xiao Jiusheng's good looks, although he was a little fierce He is a little taller, but he has an extraordinary bearing, and his own son likes it tightly, and he feels kinder in his heart.She hurriedly asked Xiao Jiu to sit down, and said some thoughtful words, saying that if Zhong Shuo disrespected Di Ji, he would be punished and there was no need to be soft, Xiao Jiu also responded with a smile.

Over there, Zhong Hanjiang and Zhong Shuo were sitting silently. Zhong Hanjiang was relieved to see Zhong Shuo's energetic appearance, and drank tea slowly.

Zhong Ji, who was sitting with An Sheng, looked at Xiao Jiu curiously for a while, then suddenly jumped down the tunnel and said, "Princess sister-in-law is so pretty!"

Zhong Shuo: "!"

Zhong Hanjiang: "!"

Yu Shi: "!"

Zhong Shuo hurriedly said, "Second brother has nothing to do with disturbing Di Ji, A Ji! You don't want to sit back!"

Seeing that they were so nervous, Xiao Jiu couldn't help laughing, and said to the startled Zhong Ji: "This is my uncle? Thanks to my uncle's praise."

The three people next to him breathed a sigh of relief, and Xiao Jiu beckoned Zhong Ji to come over to tease him. After a while, Zhong Ji's eyes were full of affection and affection, and he had to sit next to Xiao Jiu even when eating, completely forgetting about Zhong Ji. Shuo asked earlier.

Zhong Shuo had no choice but to eat in silence.

Three days passed quickly, three dynasties returned home, Xiao Jiu and Zhong Shuo went to the palace to pay their respects, after leaving the palace, the newlyweds went their separate ways, Xiao Jiu lived in the Diji Mansion, Zhong Shuo returned to the Zhong Mansion.

Xiao Jiu had always had a bad reputation, but Zhong Shuo, who picked up characters in his fifteenth year, was excellent in literary and martial arts, and was originally a good son-in-law that many people in Beijing expected.Therefore, all the noble ladies in the capital were eagerly waiting for Xiao Jiu's jokes during this wedding, but in the blink of an eye, one month passed, not only did there not come out that the emperor's concubine was mean, the emperor's consort was at odds, and the empress' concubine lost all face. The news, on the contrary, everyone said that the son-in-law Emperor Ji has a very deep affection. Since she got married, the emperor has summoned her son-in-law to accompany her every day. In a word, the soup cooked by the cook is wonderful.

Jiang Huai, the second son of Jiang who was far away in the Jiang Mansion, heard the rumors that he had become the concubine of the emperor. Little General Zhong made great achievements and came here to marry him!Now that they are married, they can be virtuous and virtuous!

Jiang Huai couldn't believe it.

He hurriedly handed over the greeting card to visit his cousin Di Ji.

Yongmu Di Ji Mansion

In April, the spring rain is about to rest, Xiao Jiu is so elegant, she changed into a blue dress, her long hair was tied up with two jade hairpins, and she wore earrings of the same color, she and her son-in-law Zhong Shuo sat under the acacia tree in the courtyard, playing chess and having a drink The wine is green plum wine made by Zhong Shuo later. It is sweet and dense in the mouth. The two face the chessboard and ponder carefully.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Huai suddenly felt a sense of tranquility.He smiled and shook his head, stepped forward and saluted, "Emperor Concubine, son-in-law."

Zhong Shuo stood up and returned the salute: "Brother Jiang."

Xiao Jiu said displeasedly: "Now you are his cousin-in-law and son-in-law, you can just accept his gift, why get up?"

Jiang Huai said with a cheeky smile: "Bei Ning and I are close friends, and we should be courteous."

While speaking, Xiwen had already added a seat for Jiang Huai. Jiang Huai sat down and poured himself a glass of wine consciously, watching the situation on the chessboard.

Zhong Shuo held the white pieces, he twisted a white jade piece and slowly put it down, Jiang Huai said: "Beining cut off his own arm, so courageous."

Xiao Jiu said: "Watch the chess without saying a word, my cousin is not a gentleman."

Jiang Huai said brazenly: "That's all nonsense, why should Di Ji take it seriously?"

He said again: "In this game, all the grass and trees are soldiers, and there are many eyes and ears. Beining has already shown signs of decline."

Xiao Jiu said: "You should call him son-in-law."

Jiang Huai is as good as a follower: "The situation is not good for the son-in-law, what is leaking here is like a sieve."

Zhong Shuo's style of chess has always been prudent, and his defenses are tight. What he is referring to is the current Emperor Ji's Mansion.

Xiao Jiu snorted and said, "Your brother is running around for His Majesty, but you are alone, playing the autumn wind everywhere, why? Uncle wants to send you to my house to be a maid, so that you can earn a dowry money?"

Zhong Shuo paused as he took the wine glass, he couldn't hear anything about the word "betrothal gift".

The other two were unaware.

Jiang Huai said with a half smile but not a smile: "No, I came today to see your husband and wife love each other. There was a lot of chatter outside saying that you two were destined in previous lives. Let me see something new."

Xiao Jiu said: "So, you came just in time, Xiwen, go to the kitchen and tell the cook to bring a rare white jade soup."

Xi Wen took the order to leave, Zhong Shuo smiled and said, "Brother Lao Jiang will be a witness."

Jiang Huai said: "Huai is obliged to do so." He entered the Emperor Ji's mansion this time for this purpose.

In this mansion bestowed by Emperor Longde, there are many eyes and ears, and it is quite inconvenient to do things. Xiao Jiu wanted to live back in the Zhong Mansion, so he planned to use the soup cook to pave the way, so he sent Jiang Huai a letter to call him come.

Not long after, the servant girl came into the garden with soup, and when she approached, she accidentally spilled all the hot soup on Zhong Shuo's body. Xiao Jiu was furious immediately, reprimanded her, and asked someone to drag her down and beat her again. It was only twenty boards, Zhong Shuo was unscathed, carrying the wet hem of his clothes, while Jiang Huai was watching with a smile on his face.

After that, Jiang Huai said goodbye and went back to the house.

That night, the cook who made the soup committed suicide in the residence of Emperor Yongmu, and Xiao Jiu was greatly shocked.

Zhong Shuo consulted a doctor overnight, but he didn't get better, so he called the imperial physician the next day. The imperial physician said that the emperor was frightened, and prescribed some calming prescriptions, but the patient did not improve after taking the medicine. Caring for Empress Dowager.

Zhong Shuo couldn't do it, so he invited the Taoist priest of the imperial Taoist temple. After the Taoist priest did it, he said that the maidservant girl was scolded by the Diji before, and the dead souls hated the Diji and kept making troubles all day long. From the Emperor Ji's Mansion, ten Taoist priests will be invited to perform the Dharma, and they will be left empty for three years before they can be saved.

Zhong Shuo was worried about Xiao Jiu's condition, so he handed over the bag to the palace without any delay. Emperor Longde immediately allowed Xiao Jiu to move out of the Emperor Ji's Mansion. Because building the mansion was a waste of time and money, Xiao Jiu moved back to her husband's house.

Therefore, Zhong Ji looked forward to his "Princess Sister-in-law".

Xiao Jiu had a lot of private property, so Zhong Shuo purposely used the largest room in Xie Yuxuan as a storeroom to let it go.

Sitting on the porch, Xiao Jiu watched the servants come in and put away his things, and after eating the melon seeds in his hand, he said to Zhong Shuo, "You are more comfortable here."

Zhong Shuo said with a smile, "It's just that the place is smaller. I've wronged Your Highness."

Xiao Jiu said: "It's all right, if there is a son-in-law, it is worthwhile to be smaller."

Without changing his face, Zhong Shuo handed him a handful of melon seeds.

Xiao Jiu raised his eyebrows and answered, "My son-in-law is considerate."

Zhong Shuo got up: "I'm going to see if the warehouse is in order."

The two planned this play after they found out that the cook was arranged by Shen Yu. Now that they moved out of the leaky Emperor Ji's Mansion, Xiao Jiu became more lively. He has been dignified for many days. Some are too difficult to resist, so we have to find excuses to avoid them first.

Zhong Shuo went into the storeroom with his front foot, and outsiders reported that Mrs. Yu had arrived, and he turned out of the storeroom again. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had already sat down, and the room was busy, so he sat on the porch, looking a little warm.

Mrs. Yu took Zhong Chu with her, but Zhong Ji, who wanted to see the princess's sister-in-law, was already studying in Jiang's private school, so she couldn't come with her.

Shi Yu put Zhong Chu on her lap, and before she could speak, Zhong Chu consciously crawled into Xiao Jiu's arms, Shi Yu hurriedly pulled Zhong Chu back, Zhong Chu reluctantly said: "Chu Chu wants a sister-in-law!"

Xiao Jiu stretched out his hand to take Zhong Chu into his arms, comforting Yu Shi and said: "Mother, don't worry, Yong Mu has always been fond of young children."

Mrs. Yu hurriedly said: "Don't dare to work for Diji, Chu Chu is not lighthearted!"

Xiao Jiu said: "Nothing, Chu Chu is very cute."

Only then did Yu say with a smile: "I came here to visit Di Ji, what do you say? Di Ji is in good health, I heard that you were frightened, and I was quite frightened, so can the ones in the kitchen care for you?"

Xiao Jiu said: "Thank you, mother, for your concern. I was just a little frightened, but it's not a serious problem. I'm fine now."

Yu said: "The cook used to be from Shuo'er's yard. When something like this happened, I only blame myself for not caring about the mansion!"

Xiao Jiu said: "It looks like an honest person, I don't want to do such a thing, I gave her a few words for my son-in-law and then committed suicide in my room, it was very violent, mother don't need to blame herself, there will never be such a thing .”

Since Xiao Jiu entered the door, his words and deeds were decent, Yu Shi was already fond of him, but seeing him again, he was sensible, and he only felt grateful for a moment, took his hand and said: "Emperor Ji understands me, I will support this inner house alone for 20 years In the past year, how can I tell the pain in my heart to the two men, the master and Shuo'er? I can only blame me if something happens, and Di Ji Kuanhe feels sorry for Shuo'er, from now on, we will be my mother's companions!"

Xiao Jiu hugged Zhong Chu tightly and nodded in agreement.

Zhong Shuo looked at the two who were as close as mother and daughter, and felt that there was no room for him to speak, so he turned back to the warehouse.
