After rebirth, White Lotus forced her husband to be a good man
Chapter 23: Have a baby early, good things come in pairs
Chapter 23: Have a baby early, good things come in pairs
The old lady looked at Qin Yuwang with joy in her eyes, and the affection in her eyes made her cry. "Haowang'er, what good things did you go out to buy today?"
Qin Yuwang smiled sweetly and said, "Your Highness and I ordered two pieces of clothing. We are thinking of wearing them for the palace banquet in a few days." By the way, he also bought a "battle robe".
Marquis Qin Wu's eyes deepened slightly, and he raised his hand to take a sip of tea. He estimated that as Ye Niansi, entering the palace might not be so smooth.But he saw Qin Yuwang becoming more and more happy day by day. He originally thought that she would be melancholy about this marriage, but now it seems that he is too worried.
He couldn't help but look at Ye Niansi with some admiration, thinking that his daughter had always been unruly and domineering. When she was with Xiao Yan's childhood sweetheart, her mood had never been stable for more than three days, but now that she was married to Ye Niansi, she was actually more secure. few.
He nodded and felt that Cang Jingxu was indeed right. This Ye Niansi was a blessing to his Qin Wuhou Mansion.
The old lady stretched out her hand and held Tan Yuwang's little fist. A pair of kind eyes looked back and forth on the faces of Tan Yuwang and Ye Niansi, "Wang'er, this is the Year of the Rabbit. Tell grandma quickly, what gift do you want for the New Year this year? Grandma bought it for you."
Qin Yuwang lowered his head, slightly tightened the hand holding the old lady, and gently twitched the corners of his lips, "Grandma, I have everything. If I have to say my wish, I just want the whole family to be safe and happy. ."
The old lady suddenly laughed heartily, raised her hand to caress Tan Yuwang's head, her wrinkled eyes, which had seen many big scenes, flashed with little waves, and said sincerely, "My Wang'er is really long. Now that I’m older, I’m more sensible.”
The old lady let go of her hand and looked at the dishes on the table. A total of 66 dishes had been served. No one had started to use their chopsticks yet. They were waiting for the old lady to take the first step. Among the seats in this circle, those closest to the screen were There is still an empty seat in the upper seat, that is, next to Tan Yu, but no one has come.
The old lady said to Qin Yuwang, "Wang'er, there is another guest who is not here. Take a look at which one you want to eat, scoop some out and eat first." She looked at Ye Niansi, and the smile on her lips faded, but His eyes were still warm, "Sister-in-law, too, don't be too formal."
Qin Yuwang was used to being the first to use chopsticks when the table was full, and the old lady had always pampered her like this. She picked up a lion head meatball and put it into the bowl in front of Ye Niansi. Ye Niansi looked at the red-roasted oil with his black eyes. He frowned slightly, raised his head, and without blinking his eyes, he had already seen the table full of delicacies from the corner of his eye.
He had read almost all the dishes in the book "The Palace Dining Room". Each dish on this table was made by a famous chef and was completely customized according to the standard of the palace banquet. However, 66 Among the dishes, he only liked the plate of dumplings that was farthest from him.
He raised his dark eyes slightly, looked at it, and then looked away.
Qin Yuwang took a bite of the lion's head and was wondering who the guest was. He could make the whole family wait for so long. Suddenly two slaves ran in from outside. When Qin Yu saw it, he stood up in a hurry. The old lady also stood up holding the dragon head crutch. Come, Qin Yu supports her and goes to the door to greet her.
When Tan Yun was about to follow him when he went out, Tan Yu glared at him majestically, "It's okay, junior, wait in the house."
"Yes," Qin Yun stopped.
Tan Yuwang was even more curious, who is this person?To be able to sit on the seat, the old lady and Qin Yu had to personally welcome him. Even when he came to Xiao Town in the past, he had never received such treatment.
Everyone in the room stood up. Tan Yun was a little nervous and was looking around to take care of his clothes. Tan Xiaoxian was relatively calm, but his heart was pounding.
Ye Niansi was the only one sitting alone, his dark eyes looking calmly ahead, and from time to time, he couldn't help but look at the plate of dumplings.And looking at the several dishes in front of him, braised shark's fin, roast goose, dragon and phoenix in auspiciousness, imperial Buddha jumping over the wall... He sighed, not interested at all.
Before anyone came to the door, I heard his voice first. An uncle who sounded very old and Tan Yu walked in while talking. On both sides, there were eunuchs of third grade or above from the fourth academy in the palace, one on the left and one on the right. There were almost a dozen people escorting him.
"Your Majesty is too polite, and I feel ashamed of myself."
"Sir, these words offend me. It seems that the etiquette of today's reception is not in line with your wishes." Tan Yu accompanied him.
"Where, where." An old man wearing a blue brocade jacket walked in. He had white hair and a tall black skull cap. There was no trace of nobility in his body, not even the blue one. The teaching jacket also has some faint traces of old marks. If he were walking on the street, he would definitely think that he was a bad old man.
There was an extraordinary calmness between his brows and eyes, and there was always a faint smile on his face when he spoke. No matter whether Tan Yu was cheerful or otherwise, his expression did not change at all.
The old lady sat down and introduced to the juniors, "This is Master Jiang Wanzhi from the Royal Lecture Hall in the palace. Your father, the emperors, princes, princes, princes, and princes of the two dynasties were all taught by Master Jiang." She said. Then he looked at Jiang Guanzhi who was sitting there, with a pleasant look on his face, "Mr. Jiang, I would like to introduce to you some of the juniors in my family."
Jiang Guanzhi raised his hands and cupped his fists, bowed his head slightly and said, "Mrs. Lao Tai."
The old lady first raised her hand and pointed at Qin Yuwang, the smile in her eyebrows couldn't stop, "This is my eldest granddaughter, Wang'er, asking someone."
Qin Yuwang stood up in a hurry and bowed respectfully, "Qin Yuwang has met Uncle Jiang. I wish Uncle Jiang that he will be as blessed as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."
Jiang Guanzhi wiped his beard, nodded in agreement, and asked Tan Yu in a low voice, "Is this Jinhua's daughter?"
Qin Yu glanced at Qin Yuwang and said, "Yes, but Jinhua hasn't been back for many years, and I don't know that my daughter has become like this."
Xiao Jinhua is Tan Yu's only wife. She was the original daughter of Tan Yun, Tan Yuwang, and Tan Xiaoxian.After her eldest son died of a sudden illness, she couldn't bear the pain and became a nun.
She is Xiao Zhen's cousin. Her ancestors are more noble than the current Sixth Prince's Mansion. Her direct blood relative is Xiao Jue, who founded the Yu Dynasty back then. She can be said to be a well-established Miaohong. The emperor still reserves the name "Princess Jinhua" for her. "'s title.
Then, Qin Yu introduced Qin Yun and Qin Xiaoxian to Jiang Guanzhi, as well as Guan Changyi and Jiang Xinlan who were sitting next to them.At the last moment, the old lady did not forget, raising her hand to signal him to look at Ye Niansi.
Ye Niansi sat there, out of tune with the laughter and laughter of the people at the table. He ate whatever Qin Yuwang put in his bowl, but he never got the plate of dumplings he wanted to eat.
Jiang Guanzhi thought that the family introduction would end here. When he saw Ye Niansi, he thought he was a distant cousin or something, so he picked up the dumplings and fed them into his mouth, while following the old lady's introduction and looking at that person.
Ye Niansi's eyes also followed him as he picked up the dumplings, and for the first time he had some eye contact with Jiang Wanzhi.Jiang Guanzhi was stunned for a moment, and he immediately forgot the taste of the dumplings in his mouth. His eyes were extremely scheming, making it difficult for people to understand at a glance, but at the same time, he could tell that he was an extremely smart person.
He couldn't help but wonder, "Who is this one?"
The old lady patted Qin Yuwang twice, and Qin Yuwang understood and said cautiously and gracefully, "Uncle Jiang, this is my husband, the fourteenth son of the emperor, Ye Niansi."
Suddenly all eyes were focused on Ye Niansi, his black eyes raised slightly, and he was about to stand up.
However, Jiang Guanzhi hurriedly took a step ahead of him and stood up, "It turns out to be His Royal Highness the Night King. I was negligent." There was a regret of cherishing talent in his eyes, mixed with many complex expressions.
Ye Niansi was stunned for a moment. Then he looked at Jiang Guanzhi seriously and suddenly thought of someone.Before he was six years old, he was still studying in the imperial lecture hall in the palace. At that time, his husband liked him very much and often opened small stoves for him and taught him great principles.
It's just that he didn't have that name at that time.But only for a moment, Ye Niansi understood why he wanted to change his name.
He stood up. Although his voice was cold, his dark eyes reflected Jiang Guanzhi's appearance that had gradually shrunk with age. He recalled his demeanor back then. In just ten years, he was already so old that he could not recognize him.He gracefully held the handrail and held a student worship meeting, "Juniors pay their respects to Mr. Jiang Lan."
Jiang Guanzhi seemed to be shocked. At the end, he was in tears, but he could barely hold it back. His eyes were red. Upon seeing this, Tan Yu hurriedly helped him sit down. Ye Niansi also sat down. Jiang Guanzhi looked at him. , there was still a smile on his lips. Seeing that Qin Yu was a little worried, he comforted him, "It doesn't matter. I'm old and my eye sockets are shallow. If the wind blows outside the window, the turbidity in my eyes will naturally be unbearable."
The old lady took a sip of tea, raised her eyes and said to the people at the table, "Today I invite you, Uncle Jiang, for a good thing, that is, our Xinlan is pregnant. This is our Qinwuhou Mansion, the first Honey, whether you are a boy or a girl, we have to pay attention to all aspects of this."
She looked at Jiang Guanzhi and said, "Mr. Jiang, I want to ask you to give my child a name today. I heard that you will go to Jiangnan to give lectures in a few days, at least a year and a half, so I disturb you so early. "
Jiang Guanzhi bowed his head slightly, "What are you talking about, madam? It is a great honor for me to be able to name your grandson. When I came, it was ready." He took out a red envelope from his body and handed it to the old lady with both hands. .
The old lady smiled happily and hurriedly asked the maid behind her to give the envelope to Xiaoxian, "Third brother, please open it and read it to us."
Tan Xiaoxian held Xinlan's hand with joy in his eyes, and the two of them opened the envelope together, only to see that it read, "If she is a woman, her name will be Tan Ruijin, and if she is a man, she will be named Tan Yaorong."
The Tan family is full of military commanders, and few of them are good at reading. Although there is a library in the house, if Tan Yuwang hadn't wanted to go in before, no one would be willing to study.
Therefore, they naturally couldn't judge the quality of the name in the letter. Guan Changyi, who had been sitting silently, became more and more annoyed the more she looked at the plate of dumplings in front of her. She glanced at the dishes on the table, Seeing that the dishes in front of Ye Niansi and Qin Yuwang were all delicious dishes, delicacies from all over the world, but there was only this plate of dumplings in front of them, which made it even more unbalanced.
The old lady smiled and said, "Master Jiang is interested, but I don't know what the meanings of 'Rui Jin' and 'Yorong' are."
Jiang Guanzhi looked at the people present meaningfully, "Everyone here, why don't you guess the meaning behind my name?"
It is embarrassing to say that the people at this table, Tan Yu and Guan Changyi, were both students taught by Jiang Guanzhi, while Tan Yun, Tan Xiaoxian and Tan Yuwang attended classes in the small lecture hall in the palace, and they also read textbooks written by Jiang Guanzhi. , it can be said that the people at the table are all students of the old gentleman.
Therefore, no one could answer this question, which seemed a bit embarrassing.
However, Guan Changyi seized the opportunity. She looked at Qin Yuwang, her eyes that were crazy with jealousy, barely containing a trace of the calmness of a lady, "I have always seen that the second sister likes to go to the library very much, I must be Mr. Second sister should know this issue best, right?"
Qin Yun looked unhappy, but he didn't expect anything to happen.
Suddenly everyone's eyes turned to Qin Yuwang.
Old lady: [Wang'er, this is the face of my Qin family, please be angry! 】
Qin Yu: [It’s over, it’s over. My daughter is like me. It’s not easy to read. How could I know this?What's going on with this eldest daughter-in-law? 】
Qin Xiaoxian, Jiang Xinlan: [Don’t ask us, we are only responsible for birth...]
Qin Yuwang was stunned for a moment, squeezing her thighs nervously, and blinked her almond-shaped eyes twice. How could she know this? But she had an idea and looked at Ye Niansi, asking for help.
Guan Changyi secretly laughed, "It's like a fish looking for a fish, a shrimp looking for a shrimp, a fool in bed, if you don't lose your people, who else will you lose?" 】
Ye Niansi looked at Guan Changyi across the table with his dark eyes. Liu Ye had just sent him a message, saying that Xingxiang had a sister in Piaohong Mansion, but other than that she had no relatives. In the house, she was the maid in Guan Changyi's yard. In other words, the person who wanted to poison Tan Yuwang was probably Guan Changyi.
He looked at her coldly, with ice in his eyes, and said lightly, "If you don't eat cereals, you don't wear Rui Wen. The meaning of 'Rui Jin' is that a woman can be prosperous and have a smooth life." .”
"Rong, the gas coming out of the cooking pot, means progress in the future, the spirit is harmonious and the energy is peaceful, and the person has good moral character."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present suddenly realized. Jiang Guanzhi nodded and his eyes turned red. He had taught two generations of emperors and countless generals and princes over the years, but after so many years, in his heart, no one Can surpass the six-year-old Ye Niansi.
The emperor's fourteenth son, if it hadn't been for the Lan family case, he would have become the eyes of the Yu Dynasty and brought great blessings to the country.However, as luck would have it, the case affected so many people that even he was forced to change his name.
"Your Highness has such a thorough understanding. It is really a blessing for me, Jiang Wanzhi, to have a student of His Highness's."
Ye Niansi's black eyes lowered slightly, "Thank you, sir." His black eyes glanced sideways at Guan Changyi, and there was a trace of evil in his eyes, but it passed quickly and was not noticed by anyone.
Guan Changyi pinched his sleeves fiercely, feeling sulky in his heart and frowning tightly.
When the banquet was about to end, Jiang Guanzhi thought for a while and said casually to the old lady, "Yesterday, Prime Minister He came back from the Imperial Preceptor and said that the fortunes of the princes' mansions may change greatly this year. Now the third lady is pregnant, which is a good thing. , if good things come in pairs, the auspiciousness of the Hou Mansion can be firmly suppressed."
The old lady reacted slightly, and everyone present fell silent. Qin Yu said, "Sir, do you mean to have another child?" Jiang Guanzhi nodded, "Yes, in this way, we can protect good fortune and drive away harm." The old lady His eyes glanced at Guan Changyi. The woman was about to greet her with a smile, thinking that she could give her some blessing words so that she would have good luck in the coming year.But who knew that the old lady just sighed, turned around and took Qin Yuwang's hand, as if she wanted to say something.
Guan Changyi suddenly felt unhappy. She endured it and endured it again, but she suffered many grievances. The master of the house did not care about her and Tan Yun. Also, when she introduced Jiang Guanzhi just now, it was clear that Tan Yun was the legitimate son. I still have to introduce Qin Yuwang first.
She couldn't bear this kind of imbalance anymore, and said in a cold voice, "Grandma, it's just that you are looking at me with irritating eyes. Why are you sighing?"
The old lady looked stern and said nothing, and Qin Yu was also very unhappy. When Jiang Guanzhi saw this, his old eyes flashed, and he thought that the banquet was about to end, so he made an excuse to leave early.
After the guests left, only the family members were left in the house.The old lady was a little unhappy. She raised her eyes and looked at Guan Changyi. She said unhurriedly and with a shocking power in her tone, "Why, I can't look down on you anymore?"
Tan Yun moved to hold down Guan Changyi, but she threw his hand aside. Her watery eyes, round face, and her delicate and plump face became a little ferocious when she was angry, "Changyi didn't mean that. My daughter-in-law just feels that giving birth to a child has never been an easy task, and I don’t want others to make irresponsible remarks. I think that the birth of my cousin Min Shu was not just a day’s work, but also something I looked forward to. For a long time.”
"My father has always been busy with government affairs in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Dad also knows that Shangshu is an important position in the Ministry of Finance, so he can take some time to come and see me and comfort me. Therefore, my grandmother and father can't help much about this matter. But at least don’t let me go too far to save your face.”
Qin Yu cleared his throat twice. Guan Changyi couldn't see him at the dinner table all year round. He made everyone unhappy as soon as he came to the table. It was still at the table on the first day of the new year. He really didn't understand the rules. He looked at the person next to him sternly. Maid, "Help your wife go back first."
Guan Changyi was slightly stunned, gritted his molar teeth, stood up, and said with a slight courtesy, "Then Changyi will leave first."
"When did I let you go?" the old lady said sternly, her voice was quite loud. The slaves inside and outside all knelt down after hearing this, and everyone at the table stopped using their chopsticks and did not dare to say anything loud.
The old lady said unhurriedly, "What you said, you just feel that I, the Qin Wuhou Mansion, can't help you. Do you think being a relative of the emperor is such an easy thing to do now? After so many years, you have been watching me every day. Looking at your belly, I have said more than once that the children of my Qin family do not need to be limited to raising their husbands and raising their children. It is good to have them, and it is not necessarily a bad thing to have them."
"For so many years, the Marquis and I have said a lot, but you can't understand every word. I don't like you, but you can see clearly. Sometimes I think more about whether it's my own problem. After all these years, Whether your brain has grown and whether you have taken good care of your body, if you are not satisfied elsewhere, you will blame others. My Qin family does not raise dogs! Get out!"
The old lady's voice was stern, and Guan Changyi was frightened. There were tears in the corners of her eyes, and she almost fell down. Her face was red, as if she was ashamed and anxious. If not for the support of the maid behind her, she might have fallen to the ground. , she wandered out and quickly returned to the yard. As soon as she went out, two lines of tears fell down.
Qin Yu accused Qin Yun, "I didn't ask you to enlighten me before, why are people so ignorant of the rules now?" Qin Yun lowered his head, the end of his eyes turned red, and raised his head after a while, "Yi'er may really like it. My son, I’ll go see the imperial doctor tomorrow.”
The old lady kicked Tan Yu under the table and rolled her eyes at him, "You are still talking about him? You yourself married a princess wife. Do you think she listens to you?"
Qin Yu was helpless. He raised his hand and took a sip of tea. The old lady winked at the maid next to her. After a while, a round gold foil plate came in from the door with several red envelopes inside. Children and other members of the Qin family came to pay New Year greetings.
"Okay, okay, everyone has it, don't worry." The old lady sent out one by one, and at the end, she stuffed the thickest red envelope into Qin Yuwang's hand, and shook her hand eagerly, "Wang'er Ah, just buy whatever you want, and in the new year, you have to be as happy and joyful as before."
Tan Yuwang's eyes were full of joy, his almond-shaped eyes blinked twice, and he smiled sweetly, "My granddaughter will remember it, thank you grandma."
Ye Niansi's dark eyes looked at the children running around in the room. Everyone in the room had red envelopes and everyone was laughing and laughing, as if they were from the same world as him.The banquet was over. He stood up and was about to leave. The old lady behind him stretched out her hand to stop him.
"Uncle, come here." The old lady looked at him with kind eyes. A doubt flashed in Ye Niansi's black eyes, and he walked to her side hesitantly. Because the old lady was sitting, he knelt on one knee next to her. on the carpet, looking at her doubtfully.
The old lady took out the largest and thickest red envelope from her sleeve, took his hand, put it into his hand, put Qin Yuwang's hand in his, and then held it together.
Ye Niansi was startled. His skinny palms felt two warmth, one from the palm and one from the back of the hand. Those rough hands felt even warmer.
The old lady looked at Ye Niansi's eyes. The more she looked, the more she felt that she could see the figure of the virtuous and sage Queen Lanji in his eyes. She originally did not want Tan Yu to see Ye Niansi in the same place. , but she heard what Qin Yu told her and knew that Ye Niansi was the man who Cang Jingxu said would change the future of the Yu Dynasty.
Whether he would become the emperor or not was not what she cared about at all, but she felt that Tan Yuwang was not a bit happier when he was with Ye Niansi than when he was with Xiao Yan. She said earnestly, "I am older. Yes, you heard just now that this year the Marquis Mansion will be blessed with a double blessing, so that it can overcome the good luck of the Marquis Wu Mansion. You, young people, work hard and let your grandma have a little granddaughter as soon as possible, and a grandson too."
Tan Yuwang smiled awkwardly and blushed.She secretly looked sideways at Ye Niansi. His dark eyes were completely filled with the shadow of the old lady holding his hand, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
After a busy night, when I returned to the house, there were four days before the family banquet. Since the gathering on the first day of the Lunar New Year, there would not be any big events in the house, and the entire Qin Wuhou Mansion would start to hurry up. Prepare to enter the palace as a national gift.
As soon as Qin Yuwang entered the room, she picked up the teapot on the table, pushed open the lid of the teapot, and started drinking. After drinking a can, she still felt thirsty, thirsty and hot, and she felt very impatient. She put the two All sleeves were rolled up, hands were pulled up by the collar, and fans were fanned inside.
Ye Niansi originally followed her closely, but who knew that Qin Yuwang slammed the door as soon as he entered. He seemed to think that Ye Niansi would ignore him and go back to the house like before, almost hitting his nose. fold.
He took a half step back and looked inside with complicated eyes. Qin Yuwang shouted, "Liu Ye, bring me some water! Hurry up!"
"Here comes the second lady!" Willow Leaf ran from a distance like a wind, carrying two pots of tea and two teacups in her hands. Ye Niansi stopped her when he saw this, picked up one of the teacups, and thought for a moment, He opened his mouth and took a sip on the rim of the cup, then put it back.
He said to Willow Leaf, "Go in and let her drink from this cup."
Liu Ye opened her eyes wide, "What's going on, Lord?"He hates the second young lady, so he lets her use the things he used?This...this is too perverted...] "Okay, slave, come in now."
She poured a glass of water for Qin Yuwang. Qin Yuwang didn't have the slightest doubt. He raised his hand to hold the cup and drank it. After only two cups, he suddenly felt that she was not so hot and no longer thirsty. She lowered her eyes. Looking at the cup in his hand, he placed it on his tea table and threw the other cups to Liu Ye, "It seems like this cup is good. Throw these away. I will only use this one from now on."
Ye Niansi outside the door was speechless.
"Yes, yes," Liu Ye cleaned up the cups and walked out with her waist down. When she went out, Ye Niansi had already returned to the room. The lights in the room were on, and soon it became dark inside.She thought of the cup just now, felt goosebumps all over her body, and walked away in a hurry.
But Tan Yuwang couldn't go to bed so early.At the family banquet in four days' time, as one of the poets, she and the other poets will have to compare poems at the family banquet.
During the previous training, people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs had compiled all the collected poems into a booklet and sent them to them. When he was bored, Qin Yuwang counted it and found that there were more than 300 pages.
When comparing poems that day, you cannot read from the booklet. If the poems in the first round are not matched, you will not be eligible to participate in the final round battle, and you will only get a few hundred taels of silver, and you will not be able to buy anything.
But if you get into a wheel battle, you will have at least a few thousand taels. Then you may be able to buy Ye Niansi a better New Year's gift, it depends on what he likes.
So, Tan Yuwang took a light bath and wrapped his hair in a long velvet before he was dry. He sat on the bay window and started to endorse the manual. As soon as he opened the catalog page, he hit it hard. A yawn.
She began to read loudly, "Goose, goose, goose, singing to the sky, white hair floating on the green water, red palms stirring the clear waves."
"Li Bai was about to leave in a boat when he suddenly heard the sound of singing on the shore. The water in Peach Blossom Pond was a thousand feet deep and was not as deep as Wang Lun's gift to me."
After turning a few pages, she began to worry. She saw that there was still such a thick stack, one was two heads in size, "I have memorized it when I was a child, but why do I feel like these poems are the same as new ones now?" She shook her head helplessly and hit her head twice.
However, there was no one in Wuhou's house who could read well. From top to bottom, no one could memorize a few poems. Tan Yuwang considered himself to be average.But for that New Year's gift from Ye Niansi, no, she suppressed her sleepiness and recited it louder, hoping that her voice would cheer her up.
Let's say that Ye Niansi was sleeping next door and was stunned to hear Qin Yuwang recite "Ode to the Goose" more than 20 times and then recite it——
"Goose, goose, white palms stir the clear waves, red heads float on the green water, and their tunes sing to the sky."
He closed his eyes and turned over. The cold moonlight shone on his deep brows, and he frowned slightly.I thought to myself, "Forget it, just endure it and it will pass." 】
But carrying it on his back, Qin Yuwang felt sleepy. He yawned one after another and burst into tears. After lying on the table and reading for a while, his head fell asleep on his arms. Even if he forced himself to stand up, after a while, he would fall asleep. Like a chicken pecking at rice, she lowered her head and then hit her head on the table with a thud, which woke her up.
Qin Yu looked around, confused, and realized that after she endorsed it, she deeply felt that this was not going to work. She remembered that there were some books in the past, Kuang Heng chiseled the wall to steal the light, so and so hung the beam to stab the buttocks, chiseled the wall to steal the light, forget it, head She can do it.
So she cut a piece of clothing into small strips with scissors, then connected them end to end, threw them over the beams, then sat on the bay window, measured them to the chin, and tied a knot.
After it was done, she put her head in and let the cloth strangle her neck. Don't tell me, it was really refreshing, but it was a bit panicky.
This time she made up her mind to memorize all three hundred poems, so she closed the book with a snap and began to recall.
The more you carry it, the more drowsy you feel; the more drowsy you feel, the more you have to carry it.
Next door, Ye Niansi was about to fall asleep when the sound of reciting poetry suddenly came over, and this time it became like this——
"There was bright moonlight in front of the bed. The thief climbed into the window, opened the accounting cabinet, and found that there were not many books."
"The sword in the mother's hand struck the wanderer. Twelve strikes in one second, the sword struck out with critical strikes."
"Outside the Qingshan Tower outside the mountain, I hugged the Night King. The Night King was so angry that he wanted to jump off the building. I shouted from below to come on..."
They were learning poems when they were young. Tan Yuwang and Xiaoxian didn't study hard and changed the verses badly, so now they can't memorize the right ones but can't forget the wrong ones.
Ye Niansi sat up, looking tired.He put on his clothes and got up and went out. He opened Qin Yuwang's door. He was almost startled at first glance. He looked calmly before walking forward and sitting opposite her. He looked up and down, his dark eyes full of doubts. "Second Miss, what are you doing?"
Qin Yuwang opened his eyes while half asleep and chirped back to him, "Endorsement. Is this what you said? The head is hanging from the beam, the buttocks are spiked..."
The corners of Ye Niansi's lips twitched slightly, and the expression in his black eyes was looking at a fool, but it couldn't help but contain some special meaning, "Second Miss, her head is hanging from the beam. What hangs is the long black hair, not the head. If the ancients were like you, Endorsement, if you can live to the age of a weak crown or hair, you are considered to have a hard life."
Qin Yu sighed, took out his head, and lay on the bay window, "It's too hard to carry, I won't carry it anymore!"
Ye Niansi looked at the thick stack of books with his dark eyes and stretched out his hand to take it. However, Qin Yuwang sat up suddenly and forced his eyes to stare, "No, I must persist. I We must win." She stretched out her hands to hold Ye Niansi, "Your Highness, do you believe I can win?"
Ye Niansi looked at her with dark eyes. The competition for poetesses in the palace always attracted many talented and learned women. Many of them had studied hard for many years. A woman could even win the title of emperor with just one appearance at the palace banquet. Favor may be given to an official or a half-term position, and even the worst can be rewarded. The level can change the fate of the family.
Therefore, many people have been working hard for many years just to wait for this annual family dinner.With Tan Yuwang's character of the poisonous beast able to win, this competition would probably have to be played in the water.
I don’t know why she, who lacks everything, insists on doing something she is not good at.
But he still nodded lightly, "I believe it."
After a while, Tan Yuwang fell on his lap and fell asleep, and the book fell into his hand.
Ye Niansi raised his hand and extinguished the candle for half a minute, and the room became slightly darker. He picked up the book, rubbed the sides of his nose near his eyes, opened the book gently, and started reading.
The soft candlelight reflected on his face, his deep face was indifferent and hazy, and his eyes, as cold and beautiful as carved in ice, read every word carefully.
His long and slender fingers, using the method given to him by Qin Yuwang, slid down word by word from top to bottom, casually reading the verses from beginning to end.
(End of this chapter)
The old lady looked at Qin Yuwang with joy in her eyes, and the affection in her eyes made her cry. "Haowang'er, what good things did you go out to buy today?"
Qin Yuwang smiled sweetly and said, "Your Highness and I ordered two pieces of clothing. We are thinking of wearing them for the palace banquet in a few days." By the way, he also bought a "battle robe".
Marquis Qin Wu's eyes deepened slightly, and he raised his hand to take a sip of tea. He estimated that as Ye Niansi, entering the palace might not be so smooth.But he saw Qin Yuwang becoming more and more happy day by day. He originally thought that she would be melancholy about this marriage, but now it seems that he is too worried.
He couldn't help but look at Ye Niansi with some admiration, thinking that his daughter had always been unruly and domineering. When she was with Xiao Yan's childhood sweetheart, her mood had never been stable for more than three days, but now that she was married to Ye Niansi, she was actually more secure. few.
He nodded and felt that Cang Jingxu was indeed right. This Ye Niansi was a blessing to his Qin Wuhou Mansion.
The old lady stretched out her hand and held Tan Yuwang's little fist. A pair of kind eyes looked back and forth on the faces of Tan Yuwang and Ye Niansi, "Wang'er, this is the Year of the Rabbit. Tell grandma quickly, what gift do you want for the New Year this year? Grandma bought it for you."
Qin Yuwang lowered his head, slightly tightened the hand holding the old lady, and gently twitched the corners of his lips, "Grandma, I have everything. If I have to say my wish, I just want the whole family to be safe and happy. ."
The old lady suddenly laughed heartily, raised her hand to caress Tan Yuwang's head, her wrinkled eyes, which had seen many big scenes, flashed with little waves, and said sincerely, "My Wang'er is really long. Now that I’m older, I’m more sensible.”
The old lady let go of her hand and looked at the dishes on the table. A total of 66 dishes had been served. No one had started to use their chopsticks yet. They were waiting for the old lady to take the first step. Among the seats in this circle, those closest to the screen were There is still an empty seat in the upper seat, that is, next to Tan Yu, but no one has come.
The old lady said to Qin Yuwang, "Wang'er, there is another guest who is not here. Take a look at which one you want to eat, scoop some out and eat first." She looked at Ye Niansi, and the smile on her lips faded, but His eyes were still warm, "Sister-in-law, too, don't be too formal."
Qin Yuwang was used to being the first to use chopsticks when the table was full, and the old lady had always pampered her like this. She picked up a lion head meatball and put it into the bowl in front of Ye Niansi. Ye Niansi looked at the red-roasted oil with his black eyes. He frowned slightly, raised his head, and without blinking his eyes, he had already seen the table full of delicacies from the corner of his eye.
He had read almost all the dishes in the book "The Palace Dining Room". Each dish on this table was made by a famous chef and was completely customized according to the standard of the palace banquet. However, 66 Among the dishes, he only liked the plate of dumplings that was farthest from him.
He raised his dark eyes slightly, looked at it, and then looked away.
Qin Yuwang took a bite of the lion's head and was wondering who the guest was. He could make the whole family wait for so long. Suddenly two slaves ran in from outside. When Qin Yu saw it, he stood up in a hurry. The old lady also stood up holding the dragon head crutch. Come, Qin Yu supports her and goes to the door to greet her.
When Tan Yun was about to follow him when he went out, Tan Yu glared at him majestically, "It's okay, junior, wait in the house."
"Yes," Qin Yun stopped.
Tan Yuwang was even more curious, who is this person?To be able to sit on the seat, the old lady and Qin Yu had to personally welcome him. Even when he came to Xiao Town in the past, he had never received such treatment.
Everyone in the room stood up. Tan Yun was a little nervous and was looking around to take care of his clothes. Tan Xiaoxian was relatively calm, but his heart was pounding.
Ye Niansi was the only one sitting alone, his dark eyes looking calmly ahead, and from time to time, he couldn't help but look at the plate of dumplings.And looking at the several dishes in front of him, braised shark's fin, roast goose, dragon and phoenix in auspiciousness, imperial Buddha jumping over the wall... He sighed, not interested at all.
Before anyone came to the door, I heard his voice first. An uncle who sounded very old and Tan Yu walked in while talking. On both sides, there were eunuchs of third grade or above from the fourth academy in the palace, one on the left and one on the right. There were almost a dozen people escorting him.
"Your Majesty is too polite, and I feel ashamed of myself."
"Sir, these words offend me. It seems that the etiquette of today's reception is not in line with your wishes." Tan Yu accompanied him.
"Where, where." An old man wearing a blue brocade jacket walked in. He had white hair and a tall black skull cap. There was no trace of nobility in his body, not even the blue one. The teaching jacket also has some faint traces of old marks. If he were walking on the street, he would definitely think that he was a bad old man.
There was an extraordinary calmness between his brows and eyes, and there was always a faint smile on his face when he spoke. No matter whether Tan Yu was cheerful or otherwise, his expression did not change at all.
The old lady sat down and introduced to the juniors, "This is Master Jiang Wanzhi from the Royal Lecture Hall in the palace. Your father, the emperors, princes, princes, princes, and princes of the two dynasties were all taught by Master Jiang." She said. Then he looked at Jiang Guanzhi who was sitting there, with a pleasant look on his face, "Mr. Jiang, I would like to introduce to you some of the juniors in my family."
Jiang Guanzhi raised his hands and cupped his fists, bowed his head slightly and said, "Mrs. Lao Tai."
The old lady first raised her hand and pointed at Qin Yuwang, the smile in her eyebrows couldn't stop, "This is my eldest granddaughter, Wang'er, asking someone."
Qin Yuwang stood up in a hurry and bowed respectfully, "Qin Yuwang has met Uncle Jiang. I wish Uncle Jiang that he will be as blessed as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains."
Jiang Guanzhi wiped his beard, nodded in agreement, and asked Tan Yu in a low voice, "Is this Jinhua's daughter?"
Qin Yu glanced at Qin Yuwang and said, "Yes, but Jinhua hasn't been back for many years, and I don't know that my daughter has become like this."
Xiao Jinhua is Tan Yu's only wife. She was the original daughter of Tan Yun, Tan Yuwang, and Tan Xiaoxian.After her eldest son died of a sudden illness, she couldn't bear the pain and became a nun.
She is Xiao Zhen's cousin. Her ancestors are more noble than the current Sixth Prince's Mansion. Her direct blood relative is Xiao Jue, who founded the Yu Dynasty back then. She can be said to be a well-established Miaohong. The emperor still reserves the name "Princess Jinhua" for her. "'s title.
Then, Qin Yu introduced Qin Yun and Qin Xiaoxian to Jiang Guanzhi, as well as Guan Changyi and Jiang Xinlan who were sitting next to them.At the last moment, the old lady did not forget, raising her hand to signal him to look at Ye Niansi.
Ye Niansi sat there, out of tune with the laughter and laughter of the people at the table. He ate whatever Qin Yuwang put in his bowl, but he never got the plate of dumplings he wanted to eat.
Jiang Guanzhi thought that the family introduction would end here. When he saw Ye Niansi, he thought he was a distant cousin or something, so he picked up the dumplings and fed them into his mouth, while following the old lady's introduction and looking at that person.
Ye Niansi's eyes also followed him as he picked up the dumplings, and for the first time he had some eye contact with Jiang Wanzhi.Jiang Guanzhi was stunned for a moment, and he immediately forgot the taste of the dumplings in his mouth. His eyes were extremely scheming, making it difficult for people to understand at a glance, but at the same time, he could tell that he was an extremely smart person.
He couldn't help but wonder, "Who is this one?"
The old lady patted Qin Yuwang twice, and Qin Yuwang understood and said cautiously and gracefully, "Uncle Jiang, this is my husband, the fourteenth son of the emperor, Ye Niansi."
Suddenly all eyes were focused on Ye Niansi, his black eyes raised slightly, and he was about to stand up.
However, Jiang Guanzhi hurriedly took a step ahead of him and stood up, "It turns out to be His Royal Highness the Night King. I was negligent." There was a regret of cherishing talent in his eyes, mixed with many complex expressions.
Ye Niansi was stunned for a moment. Then he looked at Jiang Guanzhi seriously and suddenly thought of someone.Before he was six years old, he was still studying in the imperial lecture hall in the palace. At that time, his husband liked him very much and often opened small stoves for him and taught him great principles.
It's just that he didn't have that name at that time.But only for a moment, Ye Niansi understood why he wanted to change his name.
He stood up. Although his voice was cold, his dark eyes reflected Jiang Guanzhi's appearance that had gradually shrunk with age. He recalled his demeanor back then. In just ten years, he was already so old that he could not recognize him.He gracefully held the handrail and held a student worship meeting, "Juniors pay their respects to Mr. Jiang Lan."
Jiang Guanzhi seemed to be shocked. At the end, he was in tears, but he could barely hold it back. His eyes were red. Upon seeing this, Tan Yu hurriedly helped him sit down. Ye Niansi also sat down. Jiang Guanzhi looked at him. , there was still a smile on his lips. Seeing that Qin Yu was a little worried, he comforted him, "It doesn't matter. I'm old and my eye sockets are shallow. If the wind blows outside the window, the turbidity in my eyes will naturally be unbearable."
The old lady took a sip of tea, raised her eyes and said to the people at the table, "Today I invite you, Uncle Jiang, for a good thing, that is, our Xinlan is pregnant. This is our Qinwuhou Mansion, the first Honey, whether you are a boy or a girl, we have to pay attention to all aspects of this."
She looked at Jiang Guanzhi and said, "Mr. Jiang, I want to ask you to give my child a name today. I heard that you will go to Jiangnan to give lectures in a few days, at least a year and a half, so I disturb you so early. "
Jiang Guanzhi bowed his head slightly, "What are you talking about, madam? It is a great honor for me to be able to name your grandson. When I came, it was ready." He took out a red envelope from his body and handed it to the old lady with both hands. .
The old lady smiled happily and hurriedly asked the maid behind her to give the envelope to Xiaoxian, "Third brother, please open it and read it to us."
Tan Xiaoxian held Xinlan's hand with joy in his eyes, and the two of them opened the envelope together, only to see that it read, "If she is a woman, her name will be Tan Ruijin, and if she is a man, she will be named Tan Yaorong."
The Tan family is full of military commanders, and few of them are good at reading. Although there is a library in the house, if Tan Yuwang hadn't wanted to go in before, no one would be willing to study.
Therefore, they naturally couldn't judge the quality of the name in the letter. Guan Changyi, who had been sitting silently, became more and more annoyed the more she looked at the plate of dumplings in front of her. She glanced at the dishes on the table, Seeing that the dishes in front of Ye Niansi and Qin Yuwang were all delicious dishes, delicacies from all over the world, but there was only this plate of dumplings in front of them, which made it even more unbalanced.
The old lady smiled and said, "Master Jiang is interested, but I don't know what the meanings of 'Rui Jin' and 'Yorong' are."
Jiang Guanzhi looked at the people present meaningfully, "Everyone here, why don't you guess the meaning behind my name?"
It is embarrassing to say that the people at this table, Tan Yu and Guan Changyi, were both students taught by Jiang Guanzhi, while Tan Yun, Tan Xiaoxian and Tan Yuwang attended classes in the small lecture hall in the palace, and they also read textbooks written by Jiang Guanzhi. , it can be said that the people at the table are all students of the old gentleman.
Therefore, no one could answer this question, which seemed a bit embarrassing.
However, Guan Changyi seized the opportunity. She looked at Qin Yuwang, her eyes that were crazy with jealousy, barely containing a trace of the calmness of a lady, "I have always seen that the second sister likes to go to the library very much, I must be Mr. Second sister should know this issue best, right?"
Qin Yun looked unhappy, but he didn't expect anything to happen.
Suddenly everyone's eyes turned to Qin Yuwang.
Old lady: [Wang'er, this is the face of my Qin family, please be angry! 】
Qin Yu: [It’s over, it’s over. My daughter is like me. It’s not easy to read. How could I know this?What's going on with this eldest daughter-in-law? 】
Qin Xiaoxian, Jiang Xinlan: [Don’t ask us, we are only responsible for birth...]
Qin Yuwang was stunned for a moment, squeezing her thighs nervously, and blinked her almond-shaped eyes twice. How could she know this? But she had an idea and looked at Ye Niansi, asking for help.
Guan Changyi secretly laughed, "It's like a fish looking for a fish, a shrimp looking for a shrimp, a fool in bed, if you don't lose your people, who else will you lose?" 】
Ye Niansi looked at Guan Changyi across the table with his dark eyes. Liu Ye had just sent him a message, saying that Xingxiang had a sister in Piaohong Mansion, but other than that she had no relatives. In the house, she was the maid in Guan Changyi's yard. In other words, the person who wanted to poison Tan Yuwang was probably Guan Changyi.
He looked at her coldly, with ice in his eyes, and said lightly, "If you don't eat cereals, you don't wear Rui Wen. The meaning of 'Rui Jin' is that a woman can be prosperous and have a smooth life." .”
"Rong, the gas coming out of the cooking pot, means progress in the future, the spirit is harmonious and the energy is peaceful, and the person has good moral character."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present suddenly realized. Jiang Guanzhi nodded and his eyes turned red. He had taught two generations of emperors and countless generals and princes over the years, but after so many years, in his heart, no one Can surpass the six-year-old Ye Niansi.
The emperor's fourteenth son, if it hadn't been for the Lan family case, he would have become the eyes of the Yu Dynasty and brought great blessings to the country.However, as luck would have it, the case affected so many people that even he was forced to change his name.
"Your Highness has such a thorough understanding. It is really a blessing for me, Jiang Wanzhi, to have a student of His Highness's."
Ye Niansi's black eyes lowered slightly, "Thank you, sir." His black eyes glanced sideways at Guan Changyi, and there was a trace of evil in his eyes, but it passed quickly and was not noticed by anyone.
Guan Changyi pinched his sleeves fiercely, feeling sulky in his heart and frowning tightly.
When the banquet was about to end, Jiang Guanzhi thought for a while and said casually to the old lady, "Yesterday, Prime Minister He came back from the Imperial Preceptor and said that the fortunes of the princes' mansions may change greatly this year. Now the third lady is pregnant, which is a good thing. , if good things come in pairs, the auspiciousness of the Hou Mansion can be firmly suppressed."
The old lady reacted slightly, and everyone present fell silent. Qin Yu said, "Sir, do you mean to have another child?" Jiang Guanzhi nodded, "Yes, in this way, we can protect good fortune and drive away harm." The old lady His eyes glanced at Guan Changyi. The woman was about to greet her with a smile, thinking that she could give her some blessing words so that she would have good luck in the coming year.But who knew that the old lady just sighed, turned around and took Qin Yuwang's hand, as if she wanted to say something.
Guan Changyi suddenly felt unhappy. She endured it and endured it again, but she suffered many grievances. The master of the house did not care about her and Tan Yun. Also, when she introduced Jiang Guanzhi just now, it was clear that Tan Yun was the legitimate son. I still have to introduce Qin Yuwang first.
She couldn't bear this kind of imbalance anymore, and said in a cold voice, "Grandma, it's just that you are looking at me with irritating eyes. Why are you sighing?"
The old lady looked stern and said nothing, and Qin Yu was also very unhappy. When Jiang Guanzhi saw this, his old eyes flashed, and he thought that the banquet was about to end, so he made an excuse to leave early.
After the guests left, only the family members were left in the house.The old lady was a little unhappy. She raised her eyes and looked at Guan Changyi. She said unhurriedly and with a shocking power in her tone, "Why, I can't look down on you anymore?"
Tan Yun moved to hold down Guan Changyi, but she threw his hand aside. Her watery eyes, round face, and her delicate and plump face became a little ferocious when she was angry, "Changyi didn't mean that. My daughter-in-law just feels that giving birth to a child has never been an easy task, and I don’t want others to make irresponsible remarks. I think that the birth of my cousin Min Shu was not just a day’s work, but also something I looked forward to. For a long time.”
"My father has always been busy with government affairs in the Ministry of Household Affairs. Dad also knows that Shangshu is an important position in the Ministry of Finance, so he can take some time to come and see me and comfort me. Therefore, my grandmother and father can't help much about this matter. But at least don’t let me go too far to save your face.”
Qin Yu cleared his throat twice. Guan Changyi couldn't see him at the dinner table all year round. He made everyone unhappy as soon as he came to the table. It was still at the table on the first day of the new year. He really didn't understand the rules. He looked at the person next to him sternly. Maid, "Help your wife go back first."
Guan Changyi was slightly stunned, gritted his molar teeth, stood up, and said with a slight courtesy, "Then Changyi will leave first."
"When did I let you go?" the old lady said sternly, her voice was quite loud. The slaves inside and outside all knelt down after hearing this, and everyone at the table stopped using their chopsticks and did not dare to say anything loud.
The old lady said unhurriedly, "What you said, you just feel that I, the Qin Wuhou Mansion, can't help you. Do you think being a relative of the emperor is such an easy thing to do now? After so many years, you have been watching me every day. Looking at your belly, I have said more than once that the children of my Qin family do not need to be limited to raising their husbands and raising their children. It is good to have them, and it is not necessarily a bad thing to have them."
"For so many years, the Marquis and I have said a lot, but you can't understand every word. I don't like you, but you can see clearly. Sometimes I think more about whether it's my own problem. After all these years, Whether your brain has grown and whether you have taken good care of your body, if you are not satisfied elsewhere, you will blame others. My Qin family does not raise dogs! Get out!"
The old lady's voice was stern, and Guan Changyi was frightened. There were tears in the corners of her eyes, and she almost fell down. Her face was red, as if she was ashamed and anxious. If not for the support of the maid behind her, she might have fallen to the ground. , she wandered out and quickly returned to the yard. As soon as she went out, two lines of tears fell down.
Qin Yu accused Qin Yun, "I didn't ask you to enlighten me before, why are people so ignorant of the rules now?" Qin Yun lowered his head, the end of his eyes turned red, and raised his head after a while, "Yi'er may really like it. My son, I’ll go see the imperial doctor tomorrow.”
The old lady kicked Tan Yu under the table and rolled her eyes at him, "You are still talking about him? You yourself married a princess wife. Do you think she listens to you?"
Qin Yu was helpless. He raised his hand and took a sip of tea. The old lady winked at the maid next to her. After a while, a round gold foil plate came in from the door with several red envelopes inside. Children and other members of the Qin family came to pay New Year greetings.
"Okay, okay, everyone has it, don't worry." The old lady sent out one by one, and at the end, she stuffed the thickest red envelope into Qin Yuwang's hand, and shook her hand eagerly, "Wang'er Ah, just buy whatever you want, and in the new year, you have to be as happy and joyful as before."
Tan Yuwang's eyes were full of joy, his almond-shaped eyes blinked twice, and he smiled sweetly, "My granddaughter will remember it, thank you grandma."
Ye Niansi's dark eyes looked at the children running around in the room. Everyone in the room had red envelopes and everyone was laughing and laughing, as if they were from the same world as him.The banquet was over. He stood up and was about to leave. The old lady behind him stretched out her hand to stop him.
"Uncle, come here." The old lady looked at him with kind eyes. A doubt flashed in Ye Niansi's black eyes, and he walked to her side hesitantly. Because the old lady was sitting, he knelt on one knee next to her. on the carpet, looking at her doubtfully.
The old lady took out the largest and thickest red envelope from her sleeve, took his hand, put it into his hand, put Qin Yuwang's hand in his, and then held it together.
Ye Niansi was startled. His skinny palms felt two warmth, one from the palm and one from the back of the hand. Those rough hands felt even warmer.
The old lady looked at Ye Niansi's eyes. The more she looked, the more she felt that she could see the figure of the virtuous and sage Queen Lanji in his eyes. She originally did not want Tan Yu to see Ye Niansi in the same place. , but she heard what Qin Yu told her and knew that Ye Niansi was the man who Cang Jingxu said would change the future of the Yu Dynasty.
Whether he would become the emperor or not was not what she cared about at all, but she felt that Tan Yuwang was not a bit happier when he was with Ye Niansi than when he was with Xiao Yan. She said earnestly, "I am older. Yes, you heard just now that this year the Marquis Mansion will be blessed with a double blessing, so that it can overcome the good luck of the Marquis Wu Mansion. You, young people, work hard and let your grandma have a little granddaughter as soon as possible, and a grandson too."
Tan Yuwang smiled awkwardly and blushed.She secretly looked sideways at Ye Niansi. His dark eyes were completely filled with the shadow of the old lady holding his hand, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
After a busy night, when I returned to the house, there were four days before the family banquet. Since the gathering on the first day of the Lunar New Year, there would not be any big events in the house, and the entire Qin Wuhou Mansion would start to hurry up. Prepare to enter the palace as a national gift.
As soon as Qin Yuwang entered the room, she picked up the teapot on the table, pushed open the lid of the teapot, and started drinking. After drinking a can, she still felt thirsty, thirsty and hot, and she felt very impatient. She put the two All sleeves were rolled up, hands were pulled up by the collar, and fans were fanned inside.
Ye Niansi originally followed her closely, but who knew that Qin Yuwang slammed the door as soon as he entered. He seemed to think that Ye Niansi would ignore him and go back to the house like before, almost hitting his nose. fold.
He took a half step back and looked inside with complicated eyes. Qin Yuwang shouted, "Liu Ye, bring me some water! Hurry up!"
"Here comes the second lady!" Willow Leaf ran from a distance like a wind, carrying two pots of tea and two teacups in her hands. Ye Niansi stopped her when he saw this, picked up one of the teacups, and thought for a moment, He opened his mouth and took a sip on the rim of the cup, then put it back.
He said to Willow Leaf, "Go in and let her drink from this cup."
Liu Ye opened her eyes wide, "What's going on, Lord?"He hates the second young lady, so he lets her use the things he used?This...this is too perverted...] "Okay, slave, come in now."
She poured a glass of water for Qin Yuwang. Qin Yuwang didn't have the slightest doubt. He raised his hand to hold the cup and drank it. After only two cups, he suddenly felt that she was not so hot and no longer thirsty. She lowered her eyes. Looking at the cup in his hand, he placed it on his tea table and threw the other cups to Liu Ye, "It seems like this cup is good. Throw these away. I will only use this one from now on."
Ye Niansi outside the door was speechless.
"Yes, yes," Liu Ye cleaned up the cups and walked out with her waist down. When she went out, Ye Niansi had already returned to the room. The lights in the room were on, and soon it became dark inside.She thought of the cup just now, felt goosebumps all over her body, and walked away in a hurry.
But Tan Yuwang couldn't go to bed so early.At the family banquet in four days' time, as one of the poets, she and the other poets will have to compare poems at the family banquet.
During the previous training, people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs had compiled all the collected poems into a booklet and sent them to them. When he was bored, Qin Yuwang counted it and found that there were more than 300 pages.
When comparing poems that day, you cannot read from the booklet. If the poems in the first round are not matched, you will not be eligible to participate in the final round battle, and you will only get a few hundred taels of silver, and you will not be able to buy anything.
But if you get into a wheel battle, you will have at least a few thousand taels. Then you may be able to buy Ye Niansi a better New Year's gift, it depends on what he likes.
So, Tan Yuwang took a light bath and wrapped his hair in a long velvet before he was dry. He sat on the bay window and started to endorse the manual. As soon as he opened the catalog page, he hit it hard. A yawn.
She began to read loudly, "Goose, goose, goose, singing to the sky, white hair floating on the green water, red palms stirring the clear waves."
"Li Bai was about to leave in a boat when he suddenly heard the sound of singing on the shore. The water in Peach Blossom Pond was a thousand feet deep and was not as deep as Wang Lun's gift to me."
After turning a few pages, she began to worry. She saw that there was still such a thick stack, one was two heads in size, "I have memorized it when I was a child, but why do I feel like these poems are the same as new ones now?" She shook her head helplessly and hit her head twice.
However, there was no one in Wuhou's house who could read well. From top to bottom, no one could memorize a few poems. Tan Yuwang considered himself to be average.But for that New Year's gift from Ye Niansi, no, she suppressed her sleepiness and recited it louder, hoping that her voice would cheer her up.
Let's say that Ye Niansi was sleeping next door and was stunned to hear Qin Yuwang recite "Ode to the Goose" more than 20 times and then recite it——
"Goose, goose, white palms stir the clear waves, red heads float on the green water, and their tunes sing to the sky."
He closed his eyes and turned over. The cold moonlight shone on his deep brows, and he frowned slightly.I thought to myself, "Forget it, just endure it and it will pass." 】
But carrying it on his back, Qin Yuwang felt sleepy. He yawned one after another and burst into tears. After lying on the table and reading for a while, his head fell asleep on his arms. Even if he forced himself to stand up, after a while, he would fall asleep. Like a chicken pecking at rice, she lowered her head and then hit her head on the table with a thud, which woke her up.
Qin Yu looked around, confused, and realized that after she endorsed it, she deeply felt that this was not going to work. She remembered that there were some books in the past, Kuang Heng chiseled the wall to steal the light, so and so hung the beam to stab the buttocks, chiseled the wall to steal the light, forget it, head She can do it.
So she cut a piece of clothing into small strips with scissors, then connected them end to end, threw them over the beams, then sat on the bay window, measured them to the chin, and tied a knot.
After it was done, she put her head in and let the cloth strangle her neck. Don't tell me, it was really refreshing, but it was a bit panicky.
This time she made up her mind to memorize all three hundred poems, so she closed the book with a snap and began to recall.
The more you carry it, the more drowsy you feel; the more drowsy you feel, the more you have to carry it.
Next door, Ye Niansi was about to fall asleep when the sound of reciting poetry suddenly came over, and this time it became like this——
"There was bright moonlight in front of the bed. The thief climbed into the window, opened the accounting cabinet, and found that there were not many books."
"The sword in the mother's hand struck the wanderer. Twelve strikes in one second, the sword struck out with critical strikes."
"Outside the Qingshan Tower outside the mountain, I hugged the Night King. The Night King was so angry that he wanted to jump off the building. I shouted from below to come on..."
They were learning poems when they were young. Tan Yuwang and Xiaoxian didn't study hard and changed the verses badly, so now they can't memorize the right ones but can't forget the wrong ones.
Ye Niansi sat up, looking tired.He put on his clothes and got up and went out. He opened Qin Yuwang's door. He was almost startled at first glance. He looked calmly before walking forward and sitting opposite her. He looked up and down, his dark eyes full of doubts. "Second Miss, what are you doing?"
Qin Yuwang opened his eyes while half asleep and chirped back to him, "Endorsement. Is this what you said? The head is hanging from the beam, the buttocks are spiked..."
The corners of Ye Niansi's lips twitched slightly, and the expression in his black eyes was looking at a fool, but it couldn't help but contain some special meaning, "Second Miss, her head is hanging from the beam. What hangs is the long black hair, not the head. If the ancients were like you, Endorsement, if you can live to the age of a weak crown or hair, you are considered to have a hard life."
Qin Yu sighed, took out his head, and lay on the bay window, "It's too hard to carry, I won't carry it anymore!"
Ye Niansi looked at the thick stack of books with his dark eyes and stretched out his hand to take it. However, Qin Yuwang sat up suddenly and forced his eyes to stare, "No, I must persist. I We must win." She stretched out her hands to hold Ye Niansi, "Your Highness, do you believe I can win?"
Ye Niansi looked at her with dark eyes. The competition for poetesses in the palace always attracted many talented and learned women. Many of them had studied hard for many years. A woman could even win the title of emperor with just one appearance at the palace banquet. Favor may be given to an official or a half-term position, and even the worst can be rewarded. The level can change the fate of the family.
Therefore, many people have been working hard for many years just to wait for this annual family dinner.With Tan Yuwang's character of the poisonous beast able to win, this competition would probably have to be played in the water.
I don’t know why she, who lacks everything, insists on doing something she is not good at.
But he still nodded lightly, "I believe it."
After a while, Tan Yuwang fell on his lap and fell asleep, and the book fell into his hand.
Ye Niansi raised his hand and extinguished the candle for half a minute, and the room became slightly darker. He picked up the book, rubbed the sides of his nose near his eyes, opened the book gently, and started reading.
The soft candlelight reflected on his face, his deep face was indifferent and hazy, and his eyes, as cold and beautiful as carved in ice, read every word carefully.
His long and slender fingers, using the method given to him by Qin Yuwang, slid down word by word from top to bottom, casually reading the verses from beginning to end.
