The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 261 My family has a noble daughter

woohoo!

Moisture filled the sky above Chang'an, the carriage left the imperial city and drove through the rain, the voice in the carriage urged Dachun who was driving the carriage from time to time.

'Woo! '

The horse team and vehicles soon stopped in front of the "Geng's Mansion" in Guangdefang. The sky was gloomy, and the red lanterns were hung at the door early. There were servants watching on tiptoe at the door. When they saw the figure getting off the car, they hurried into the rain with an anxious look on their faces. , pointing at the mansion and stammering for a while before speaking.

"Master, husband, madam, her."

Under the oil-paper umbrella, Geng Qing frowned. Seeing the servant's expression, he immediately understood what was going on. Dachun and Dachun looked at each other, ignored the car, and ran along behind.

All the way through the backyard, I could see many servants and maidservants with nervous expressions, standing under the eaves looking towards the backyard and muttering something, seeing the figure running down the corridor, they quickly shut their mouths.

Geng Qing pursed her lips tightly, her robe and hair bun were soaked by the rain, she rushed through the Crescent Gate, and arrived at the backyard, where her mother was standing under the eaves supported by Bai Yunxiang, and there were other women in the courtyard on the left and right, 20 Many are here, Geng Nian is standing in the middle, holding the door leaf curiously, wanting to look inside.

Wang Jinqiu walked back and forth anxiously, saw his son running over wet, and said quickly: "I just came back, Qiao Niang didn't know if it was a dystocia, it's been a long time."

"How long?"

Bai Yunxiang estimated the time, "It's more than half an hour. It wasn't that difficult when my concubine gave birth to Nian'er."

"Human body is different, so childbirth is naturally different." Geng Qing said casually, walked to the door and leaned against the door to listen, vaguely heard Granny Wen busy in the room, saying some encouraging words.

Occasionally, Qiaoniang's painful groans and hoarse voice of vigorously shaking her body can be heard.

"What's Mrs. Wen's last name?" Geng Qing turned to her mother and asked.

"Surnamed Wang, the best in the city."

"Wang Po!" Geng Qing shouted in the court: "Mother and child are safe, I will give you ten taels of gold!"

What responded inside was Qiaoniang's hoarse roar and Wang Wenpo's hard-working puffing, which made Geng Qing's heart tangle up, and couldn't help calling Qiaoniang to let her know that she had come back and was outside.

Several times he wanted to rush in, but was stopped by Wang Jinqiu and Bai Yunxiang, saying that women have children and men can't go in, it's bad for the future and luck.

Geng Qing didn't believe this, she pushed the door and was about to go in, but the door bolt was inserted backwards inside, so she had to wait outside, when she heard Qiao Niang screaming again, she immediately called Dou Wei to come over and kick the door, the latter hesitated , but seeing Geng Qing's eyes that wanted to kill someone, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and lift his foot.

At this moment, there was a clear and crisp cry from the room, which was the first sound of a baby coming into this world, and then Wang Po shouted from the room: "Mother and daughter are safe!"

Hearing this, Geng Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief, sweat and rain stains were wiped on the sleeves of the robe, but Wang Jinqiu, who was on the side, was a little disappointed when he heard this. In this era, boys are always more important than girls , that is an incense burner with branches and leaves scattered.

"Zhuzi is fine, Qiaoniang is still young, you can still have children."

Wang Jinqiu is also afraid that his son will think badly and neglect Qiaoniang in the future, but Geng Qing over there has no such thoughts. When he hears that it is his daughter, his mouth is so happy that he almost opens his mouth to the back of his head. The Wen woman announced the good news, and rushed in immediately, throwing herself in front of the bed.

The maid was leaving with the blood-stained copper basin. Qiao Niang's face was pale, and she raised her hand weakly, and was held by her husband. She looked at the swaddling baby next to her, and her eyes were watery, as if she wanted to cry out.

"Husband, concubine, I can't give birth to the Geng family."

As if knowing what she was going to say, Geng Qing pinched her weak little hands, and said with a smile: "Compared to boys, I still like girls as my husband. That's a sweet little padded jacket, right, Geng Yue."

Geng Qing stretched out his hand and teased the baby in the swaddle with his fingertips. His face was full of wrinkles, like a little old man, and there were still some white things that hadn't been washed. The name he mentioned was actually thought of twice in his heart earlier. indivual.

"Husband has already chosen a name?"

Hearing Geng Qing call the little guy like that, Qiao Niang was also happy in her heart, it can be seen that what Geng Qing said just now was not to comfort her.

"Of course, her father is so good, why don't you have to go through the book temporarily to get the name? Now that you have a big name, you have already thought about a baby name, um...it's called Fengmei."

Geng Qing had never held such a small baby before, and it was under the guidance of Mrs. Wen on how to hold it, so he carefully held it in his arms. Looking at the child with his eyes closed and his small mouth moving, he smiled even wider.

"Does the name Dad gave you sound nice? Sister Feng, my little princess!"

For the people of later generations, this "little princess" just means rarity and treasure, but people in this age, when they heard it in their ears, they were suddenly silent, Bai Yunxiang covered her mouth in fright, and even Wang Jinqiu was stunned, Looking at his own son, and at the terrified Qiaoniang on the bed, he put his palms together and recited 'Amitabha. '

A group of women at the door looked at me and I looked at you, and quickly retreated, muttering softly.

"Aren't we going to be concubines in the palace again in the future?"

"Keep your mouth shut and don't spread the word."

The older woman stepped on the talking sister, but she also had a look of joy on her face.Dou Wei and Dachun also heard what was said just now, stood at the door with their hands on their hips, and straightened their backs, while Jiuyu walked into the room and brought Mrs. Wen out with a cold voice.

"What you heard today, you will forget it after leaving the mansion. If our family hears a word about today's events outside, let your family prepare a few more coffins."

That Wen Po was so frightened that she couldn't speak a long time ago, how could she dare to say a word now, she nodded her head again and again as a guarantee, and then she was taken away by the steward of the mansion to collect the reward money.

Geng Qing, who was speaking casually in the room, didn't know the meaning of what he said just now. He happily walked around the room with his daughter in his arms, until his mother came over and said to let Qiao Niang and Feng Mei rest. With some reluctance, he put the child back on the bed.

Sitting by the bed and talking to his wife again, after Qiaoniang fell into a drowsy sleep, Geng Qing just left the house, and asked people to quickly bring the nurse who had been found in advance to the mansion, and asked the steward to order some ingredients.

"Women are confinement, everything should be the best, don't leave the root of the disease."

"One nanny is not enough, so find a few more!"

"Also. Don't be contemptuous just because Madam gave birth to a girl. Anyone who dares to think so will be kicked out of the mansion directly."

This sentence is not only said to the people below, but also to other women. After all, there are some things that need to be treated with eye drops in advance to avoid unrest in the backyard.

After giving these instructions, they dismissed the crowd, leaving behind a few clever maids to keep watch. Geng Qing also left and went to the front yard. The mother and daughter are safe, so let him rest assured that after the family affairs are over, he will start to work on business up.

It is a big deal for the emperor to move the capital, especially since Zhu Wen's soldiers and horses have entered the river, it is unlikely that the military governor Wang Chongrong in the river will come to interfere.

"Li Keyong certainly didn't want the emperor to go to Luoyang, but it was too late to stop it in time, and Wang Chongrong would definitely come first. Well, Zhu Wen should have thought of this, otherwise Chen Binghe Zhongfu would not have happened. '

After sorting out his thoughts, Geng Qing spread out the paper, dipped it in ink, and began to write down some details of the capital relocation, so that the relocation of the capital would become orderly.

In the next few days, Jiang Xuanhui followed the steps he wrote down, and cleaned up the palace, the imperial city, valuables, clan, and various official affairs one by one, registered them in the book and loaded them into cars first, and then the emperor and the queen worshiped the ancestors. After all this, moving the capital to Luoyang was put on the agenda.

There were also some problems in the middle. Chao Wenwu was also unwilling to leave Chang'an. After all, they had their property here. If they left like this, many things would be completely lost.

At the same time as the commotion started, it also angered Jiang Xuanhui, who burned all the properties under their name in a single fire. The fire spread and could not be stopped at all, causing the surrounding houses to be affected as well. It burned all night, and the night sky was illuminated red.

For this matter, Geng Qing led the Longxiang army, dragged Jiang Xuanhui out of the house and cursed angrily, almost confronted him with swords and soldiers, not daring to make the relationship stalemate, so Jiang Xuanhui had to be rescued.

But in this way, those rambunctious civil and military men were scared enough, for fear of angering each other again, and then it would not be as simple as setting fire.

On the second day of May, driven by Zhang Tingfan, the imperial envoy battalion, Chao Wenwu followed the emperor's imperial chariot to the east and went out of the Mingchun Gate. The prince, who was surrounded by the queen, walked out of the carriage in silence, and looked back at the still majestic Chang'an city wall, tears streaming down his face.

"The sparrows are frozen and killed on the top of Hegan Mountain. Why don't you fly to the living place to have fun. I have no home to return to."

He raised his sleeves, looked at Chang'an, which was drifting away with sobs, and bowed his hands.

"Ancestors, sons and grandchildren, Li Ye, I'm sorry!"

　There may be only one chapter tonight, let's think about the next plot.
