Cangzhou is not far away from the capital, and it is not near either. Under normal circumstances, it takes about half a month to walk by land. The waterway needs to bypass, so it takes longer. The autumn tiger is still very fierce in the daytime. Xiaotuanzi is only two months old. For the sake of the children, Yan Shengrui gave up the land route and chose to take them along the river to enjoy the scenery along the river.
Only the first ship was full of people, and the second three were full of goods, including sorghum wine, wine, jam, and early rice harvested this year. They were used to the high-quality rice planted by their families. They did not want to eat other rice any more. More than that, Ling Chenglong also said that they would give them all the rice after the late rice was collected Send them to the capital, and they will be guaranteed to eat their own rice every year.
"Dad, you see, my brother is good at eating it. Will he eat goat's milk and not have to invite a nurse again?"
As time was short, Ling Jingxuan didn't look for other nannies. Instead, he took two sucking goats on board. When the baby was hungry, he would squeeze it in and mix it with a little crescent spring water. After removing the smell of smell, he would feed him spoonful by spoonful. At first, he was a little troublesome. Xiaotuan was used to sucking nipples and feeding him with a spoon He refused to open his mouth. Later, he was probably hungry. Soon he learned to use a spoon to feed him. Several small buns took turns to feed him every day. Every time he left something to drink, Ling Wu, who was his brother, was particularly willing to help him eat clean.
"Nanny still wants it. Let's wait until we get to the capital. Give it to me, don't you? Go quickly "
pick up the child and pat him on the back to make him hiccup. Ling Jingxuan smiles and urges several children. The days on the ship are too boring. Yan Shengrui and Ling Jinghan simply take over the children's education work, teaching them martial arts in the morning and reading in the afternoon. Occasionally, ye Ruyun will join the ranks of teaching them martial arts. I'm afraid the only thing that has nothing to do is Only Ling Jingxuan. Xiaotuanzi can only take care of himself when he is eating for a while. Other times, he is basically taking care of long Zhang's Lingyun.
"OK, xiaotuanzi. I'll see you later."
Unable to touch his younger brother's head, Ling Wen simply patted his feet. The three steamed stuffed buns, who had a model, saluted Ling Jingxuan and then turned away. Song Shuiling, who was waiting on the side, couldn't help laughing and said, "master Xuan, young master, they are more and more like sons of princes and nobles."
"Ha ha They're good, all right
Ling Jingxuan took back his sight and put the hiccup on the bed with a smile. He leaned back on the chair and continued bored: "I don't know what kind of nobility are. My children just need to be themselves."
This is the fundamental reason why he has not found anyone to teach children etiquette. Children, too much restraint will become a little old man sooner or later. His steamed stuffed buns are mature enough. He doesn't want them to become more mature. If they are all the same as Xiao Qi in the future, they should not be distressed to death?
"Master Xuan, I heard that people in the capital are snobbish. Will they look up to us?"
Seeing that he was in a good mood, song Shuiling couldn't help but get worried and asked. She didn't worry about being bullied. She was afraid that others would bully him. Before she left, her parents and elder brother had been very kind to her. Even if she died, she had to protect the safety of the master and the young men. She knew that she could not do anything but do well in manual work It's just a loyalty to the master.
"That's for sure. No matter whether it's the capital or not, my identity as a farmer will be looked down upon. After all, the identity of the king of our family is there, let alone me. Even the legitimate son and daughter of a large family can't be worthy of him. However, if others say something about others, we should do our own thing well. Moreover, it may not be a bad thing to belittle."
The husband is flexible. Although he didn't intend to aggrieve himself, it's OK to pretend to be confused occasionally. It's good to explore the background of other people. In the early stage, he didn't plan to face up to those people. Of course, if they were anxious to die, he didn't mind practicing.
"I understand. The meaning of master Xuan is, let's keep our duty, and the soldiers will cover up the water and the earth."
Song Shuiling is also a smart girl. Hearing this, she can almost understand his meaning. Ling Yun, who is a little older than her, can't help but show a doting smile: "this is the meaning of Xuan Lord. People can't look up to us. Can they improve our personality? As long as we strictly abide by our duty, do not make any overstepping behavior, and do not give people a handle, someone will make the decision for us when something goes wrong. "
"Is that so?"
Song Shuiling blinks her eyes at Ling Jingxuan, who is leaning against the chair. The latter is bored looking at the scenery outside the cabin. After a while, she whispers: "shuiling'er, learn more from Lingyun and do more with less talking. The capital is no better than the countryside. You will always lose your head. In the future, you will help me manage the backyard of the palace."
The girl is naive and lovely. He is very happy. If she is in the countryside, he will not ask her to change. It is very rare to be able to keep a childlike heart. But what they are going to go to is the capital city. What they are about to get into is the muddy water of the royal family. There, innocence will only make people lose their lives in vain."Yes, Shuiling knows."
Knowing that he was talking about himself, song Shuiling quickly collected her curiosity and interest. She stood aside obediently. Ling Jingxuan did not say anything. She just looked out of the window and didn't know what she was thinking. The capital city is coming soon.
Inside the palace is the Fuling palace of the Empress Dowager.
"Son of a bitch, how can he marry a farmer to be his imperial concubine? Emperor, you can't criticize my royal prince. How can his imperial concubine be a man or a farmer? My family will never allow such a remote thing to happen. "
Generally, when a prince or a princess marries a concubine, he has to be granted a gift by the emperor. Before he left, Yan Shengrui asked Yan Shan's general to invite lingjingxuan to send the book to the palace. When the emperor got the fold, he had no choice but to go to the back palace to look for the Empress Dowager and Yan Shengrui's mother's concubine Yun Taifei. But when the Empress Dowager saw the fold, the Empress Dowager saw it She was so angry that she even forgot about the presence of imperial concubine Yun and empress, as well as a group of concubines. Her well maintained face was covered with naked anger.
"Empress mother, Jing Xuan is not worthless. He not only led the people of Cangzhou to plant late rice, but also planted sorghum in tens of thousands of mu of saline alkali land, which effectively eased the pressure of the people. The emperor's current efforts to control the inland sea and the effect of raising fish in rice seedling fields all have his credit. In terms of rivers, mountains and countries, he has made contributions."
The empress dowager, who was dressed as a queen, looked at his nose, nose and heart. He was cold and aloof, and had no feelings on his face. The empress dowager, who was not satisfied with him, glared at him all the time, and said, "so what? He had a great deal of meritorious service. He wanted to be the imperial concubine as a farmer? The AI family will never agree. "
The most important thing was that she heard that the farmer was still a demon, and had already given birth to three sons to Lao Jiu. If the position of Zheng Fei was given to him, his children would be his legitimate son. Lao Jiu held the military power and did not care about the throne before. Who knows whether he will care after he has a son? What if?? No, she can't let that demon farmer become the real concubine of Lao Jiu.
"The Empress Dowager is right. Looking at the whole Qing Dynasty, which meritorious nobleman would marry a man as the main room? Oh, I'm sorry, Queen. I don't mean anything else. Of course, you and the princess of Huajun are exceptions
The woman who spoke was dressed as a princess. The makeup on her face was exquisitely depicted. Her figure was slim and measured. She seemed to be in her thirties. She was Princess Xiao. She was already in her forties. She was the eldest son and the fourth son of the emperor. There was also a married Princess Jiayang. Although she was only a princess, she had been loved by the Empress Dowager for many years Time is hanging in the sky, and her influence is almost everywhere in the East and West palaces. Anyone with a little brain knows that she is the real master of the harem secretly.
"Concubine Xiao is too thoughtful. This palace is not the kind of person who is careful."
Chu Yunhan glanced at her and gently sipped her tea cup gracefully. Although the Empress Dowager was quite dissatisfied with him, she always wanted to help Xiao Guifei clean him up. However, since he came back last year, he has become more cautious and can not find out his mistakes. In addition, the emperor has the intention to protect him. She asked him to go to the Fuling Palace last winter to humiliate him secretly, and then she will There's no chance.
"That's good. I'm afraid that my wife will be too sentimental. Since the empress is the Royal concubine, why don't we listen to Princess Yun's advice?"
One punch hit the cotton again. Concubine Xiao could not help but feel resentment. She could only temporarily turn her attention to Prince Sheng. The Empress Dowager was also worried about her. She would never allow anyone to jump out and seize the throne that only belonged to the eldest son of the emperor.
"Oh? What does sister Yun have in mind? "
The Empress Dowager is also shrewd, can not understand her meaning? Yan Shengrui's mother concubine Yun Taifei has always been weak and bullying, but she is his mother's concubine after all. As long as she refuses, what can Yan Shengrui do? Besides, he didn't blame them for killing two birds with one stone.
"I listen to my sister and the emperor."
The beautiful princess Yun nodded with a graceful and dignified smile, and kicked the ball back. The Empress Dowager flashed a warm anger in her eyes, and then pulled her sign language center of gravity: "nonsense, Lao Jiu is your child. Marriage matters, even if it's the mourning family and the emperor, don't you have to listen to your opinions? You can rest assured to say, no matter what your opinion is, the mourning family and the emperor will respect you. "
That's what she said. But as anyone with a brain knows, she asked her in disguise that she didn't recognize Ling Jingxuan. Once she said it, no matter how they forced her, it would be princess Yun's business. It had nothing to do with them.
"Princess, don't worry. Just tell me what you have. I won't let Lao Jiu Hu come here."
The emperor also saw what they meant. As soon as he said this, he agreed. Chu Yunhan frowned a few times, and the dim sight could not help sweeping towards Princess Yun. She could not help pulling Shengrui's hind legs.
"In this case, I'll ask my sister and the emperor to help him."
"What?"
Obviously, I didn't expect that Princess Yun would say this. The Empress Dowager couldn't help but scream. Yan Shengzhi also frowned. Then the Empress Dowager quickly covered up her chagrin and pulled her to say, "do you really want it? That man is not only a lowly born farmer, but also a demon. He is a man. Are you not afraid that Lao Jiu will become a joke of othersThe Empress Dowager couldn't understand why she accepted such an evil daughter-in-law so easily?
"Well, my sister also knows that Lao Jiu has never been close to his concubine. Every time he triumphs, he will not take the initiative to come to the palace to see her. In the past, she didn't urge him to get married, but he always walked away. This time, it was rare for him to find one himself. Although he was born a little lower and was a man, he always had offspring, and I didn't dare to expect so much."
Princess Yun gently smiles, and the general smile of Mu Chunfeng can't help but shake the eyes of all the people present. Once the most beautiful woman in the world, even if she is old, she is still incomparable.
"No, I don't agree with you about this. Emperor, you first press down Lao Jiu's fold and let him come to see the AI family when he comes back"
seeing that their schemes have failed, the Empress Dowager has to play the villain himself. In any case, she can't let those savages become the legitimate sons of Prince Sheng, or even the sons of sons.
"Empress mother, please don't be angry. I have the same intention. Let's go back and talk about everything."
Yan Shengzhi is also helpless, originally wanted to find a way, but in the end, there is still no result.
Before Ling Jingxuan arrived in the capital, the undercurrent began to surge in the palace. I'm afraid that the big families will face many difficulties and ridicule when they arrive in the capital. However, with Ling Jingxuan's nature, I'm afraid they won't care at all? If he gets angry, he will no longer be so kind to those talented wolves, tigers and leopards in the capital city. It can be foreseen that the capital will definitely be turned upside down by his appearance.
