Dajin royal family

Chapter 116
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a twenty-foot-high lantern wheel was built outside the Dongding Gate in Chang'an City, decorated with gold and jade, and dressed in brocade. More than 33 lamps were lit around it, clustered like a thousand flowers and trees.The emperor personally ordered the big Chen Yingdeng to set up a fire in the courtyard, and set up candles in the palace during the self-imposed prohibition, and they were connected continuously.On both sides of Suzaku Street, there are 150 lamp towers, [-] feet high, decorated with pearls, jade, gold and silver, and the breeze comes quietly, singing into a rhyme. All who saw it were amazed.

Those who are in it are like heaven.

As night fell, on a lamphouse next to Zhuque Street, all the family members of Prince Zhao's Mansion were here.From here, you can see the pagoda, Zhuding, and thousands of Kongming lanterns floating in the air, just like a frozen picture scroll.The next step is the bustling Zhuque Street, with the sound of hawking and jumping, everyone is driving and moving, like a long dragon reaching the gate of Chang'an City.

Le Ping looked down from time to time with her little head stretched out, and her eyes showed longing. Compared with staying on the light tower, she wanted to go down and play.After all, Princess Zhao is here, and she has to put on airs of a lady all the time.But it is impossible for her to realize this wish tonight, because it is impossible for Mrs. Zheng to let her go down and mix among the common people.

Concubine Zhao was sitting with eldest grandson Qingyi and several other concubine younger sisters who were fortunate enough to bring them out. The table in front of them was full of Shangyuan Festival food, including white porridge, noodle cocoons, silk cages, fire moths, and jade beams. Cake, coke, etc.In addition, there is also a pot of rice wine.

Eldest Sun Qingyi reached out to pick up the jug, gently filled it up for Mrs. Zheng, and said with a smile, "Mother, it's a good day today, you must drink a few more glasses."

Because of Jianeng's words two days ago, Changsun Qingyi was really sad for a long time, and sometimes had nightmares late at night, crying that Jiang Chengxiao wanted to divorce her because she couldn't have children.Under this situation, Jiang Chengxiao didn't know how many times he had to persuade her to calm her down.

Mrs. Zheng is now more and more satisfied with this daughter-in-law. She is respectful and polite to her superiors, and she is gentle and relaxed to her subordinates. The only thing that makes her slightly dissatisfied is that the eldest Sun Qingyi's stomach has never moved. Second-rate.

"Well, today's Shangyuan Festival, we should drink a few times more."

Jiang Chengxiao drank some wine with Mrs. Zheng, then walked to the wooden fence and stared at the bustling Chang'an.This kind of situation was not uncommon in his previous life, but he can only see it once in this kind of festival.

"Brother." There was a soft ringing sound in his ear, Jiang Chengxiao turned his head, and saw the third younger sister standing prettyly behind him.

She had been bedridden for a long time because of Cui Zifu's incident, but she got better after hearing that Cui Zifu had died because of his dereliction of duty.

"Are you feeling better?" Jiang Chengxiao had a faint smile on his face.

The third younger sister bit her red lips lightly, looked back, Zheng Shi and the others were just covered by a screen, she turned around and bowed to Jiang Chengxiao, how could Jiang Chengxiao accept it, so he immediately helped her up and said: "This is Whatever you do, just tell me if you have something to do, I will definitely not refuse if I can help you."

"Brother's kindness is like rebirth, little sister can't repay it." There were tears in her eyes.As far as she was concerned, if her elder brother hadn't taken action, not only would she have been cautious in the first half of her life, but the second half of her life would have been dark.

Jiang Chengxiao knew what she was talking about, and secretly marveled at the intelligence of this younger sister, and said in a harmonious voice: "Since you called me brother, how could brother watch you jump into the fire pit. But what happened to Cui Zifu was indeed his own fault, You don't have to blame yourself for that."

He thought that the third sister believed that Cui Zifu's death had something to do with her, so he said this to enlighten her.

The third younger sister had tears in her eyes, and said softly: "Brother, from now on, brother will be Xiaoer's heaven."

She has understood a truth since she can remember, she is just a concubine, living alone in Nuo Da's palace, if she wants to live better, she can only be cautious in her words and deeds.Therefore, she is extremely eager to marry a good man in the future and forget about the things in the palace.Her biological mother died early, and she longed for family affection, but family affection was out of reach for her.The fifteenth sister asked her why her brother didn't get close to them. Of course she knew, but she knew better that the love from her brother was only for the princess.

What are their concubine sisters?However, they are of a higher status than servants, and they cannot even be regarded as their family members.

When her elder brother explained her plan in a word that day, she cried.Hearing that her brother wanted to help her, she thought it was to comfort her at first. After all, her brother is the concubine's legitimate son, and they are a family.

However, when she heard that Cui Zifu was executed for dereliction of duty, she knew at that time that her brother must have done it, and her brother must have helped her.For the first time, she tasted the family affection that she hadn't felt in more than ten years.She finally understood why the princess was so dependent on her brother.

Jiang Chengxiao sighed secretly, and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, don't worry, my brother will definitely find you a good marriage in the future, so that you can marry happily. Don't cry, or you will be caught by others later. My sister will laugh at you when she sees it." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to gently wipe away the tears on her face.

Perhaps because of his thinking, his concept of concubine and concubine is not strong. Under the care of the princess, he gradually regards the relatives in the palace as family members, and the third sister is naturally his younger sister.Under the circumstances within his power, he would naturally not sit back and watch the third sister fall into the fire pit.What's more, if it wasn't for the matter of the third sister this time, he would never have thought that the prince who had been an otaku in the East Palace would actually put his hands into the Ministry of Rites, and further clearly recognize the prince's ruthlessness.

At the same time, I also understood how muddy the water in Chang'an was.

"Who gave you the name Shao'er?" Jiang Chengxiao changed the subject with a smile.

Hearing this, the third younger sister blushed, and being asked her boudoir name rashly still made her a big girl blush, she said in a low voice: "The nanny who took care of Shuo'er when she was young thought that Shuo'er frowning was not good-looking, so she called her like that." come down."

So, Jiang Chengxiao was dumbfounded, he thought it was Zhao Wang who took it for her.But will Zhao Wang be named?He even chose such an ugly name for his own son.

"Brother, don't you think this name sounds good?"

"Well, it's kind of sad and resentful." Jiang Chengxiao said: "Okay, forget about those unhappy things, the rest of your life is still alive, and with your brother around, you won't be told to marry the wrong person."

The third younger sister murmured softly, but Jiang Chengxiao didn't listen carefully, his eyes fell on the opposite lamp tower, which was the lamp tower of Yuwen Mansion.

Naturally, Yu Wenzhi saw Jiang Chengxiao and the woman beside him, smiled and said to the elder brother next to him: "Look, Lord Langya is really a romantic person, and he took another concubine, tsk tsk, I'm really envious!" Other people."

Yu Wenhuaji chuckled, "Erlang, why envy others, today is the Lantern Festival, the big girls and daughters-in-law are all below, Erlang won't play the autumn wind?"

Hearing this, Yu Wenzhi's eyes lit up immediately, and even his breathing became heavy.These days, because of Yu Shuyu's incident, Yu Wenshu confined them in the house, and did not release the two brothers until the Shangyuan Festival.Undoubtedly, for a man in his prime, it was a hard work.

"Brother's words are very suitable for me, so let's go?" Yu Wenzhiji had an ambiguous smile on his face.

"Let's go!" Yu Wenhuaji is also a man of temperament. In the past, in Chang'an City, when it comes to bullying men and women, can he miss Mr. Yuwen?
Yu Wenhuaji turned around and said, "Zen Master, lead your sons and wait below."

Zen Master Yuwen frowned slightly, and persuaded: "Eldest son, foster father said that you are not allowed to leave the lamp tower."

"Are you the master or am I?" Yu Wenhuaji asked back.

Zen Master Yuwen was speechless for a moment, so he could only sigh and turn to leave.Yes, he is Yuwen Shuyizi in name, but in fact he is just a domestic slave, so he is not qualified to persuade his master.

Yu Wenzhiji bowed his hands to the lamp tower of Prince Zhao's Mansion, with a look of satisfaction on his face, and then left under Jiang Chengxiao's inexplicable eyes.

"Brother knows that person?" Mao'er asked strangely.

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, and warned: "In the future, you must stay away from that person when you meet him. That person is worse than Cui Zifu."
