Stir-fried Datang: The Strongest Daughter

Chapter 616 We are going to be grandmothers
In the fifth year of Chengyuan, in summer, after a rain, a small yellow gate in the East Palace rushed out of the palace gate, shouting while running, "The princess is pregnant, there is..."

With a sound of "噗咚", the little yellow door tumbled, but as if he didn't feel the pain, he immediately climbed out again and headed towards the Ganlu Hall like crazy.

The concubine's pregnancy is a major event in the country. After all, the prince's status is respected. If he gives birth to a boy, he will be the future successor of the Tang Dynasty.

"What is the proper way to call it?!"

Zhang Duo, whose hair was already gray, couldn't help frowning when he saw a little yellow man running and screaming regardless of his identity.

As an old eunuch in the palace and His Majesty's companion, he is the most respectful of rules, how can he tolerate someone shouting here?

It's just that when he listened with his ears sideways and heard the content of the shouting clearly, he suddenly became happy.

"You, you mean the princess has it?"

The little Huangmen was out of breath, panting heavily: "No, don't dare to deceive, deceive the superintendent, yes, yes! It's almost three months!"

"Good boy! I brought good news, so I won't punish you." Zhang Duo beamed with joy, "What are you still doing in a daze? Hurry up and tell the miscellaneous family to report to the Empress Empress and Her Majesty! Oh, your empress must be happy to hear this news Speaking of which, after Princess Jinyang, Princess Xincheng, and Princess Chongyang got married, the empress has been sad for a long time and can't lift her spirits! Now it's all right, and when I have my grandson in my arms, I will naturally be happy!"

"Boss, why are you so happy?"

Zhao Si, who had just come out of Anren Hall, saw Zhang Duo approaching happily, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "You're laughing so hard that you can't see your fangs..."

"Well, you Zhao Si! Now you are so bold that you actually make fun of the Zajia. Let me tell you, the Zajia will ignore the matter immediately, but you little bastard came later than the Zajia, and the Zajia is half of your master. Even if you really Taking over the position of Miscellaneous Family, you have to honor me..."

Zhao Si shook his head with a smile, cupped his hands and said: "The supervisor is always generous, otherwise how dare he joke with you? Besides, there is nothing wrong with this..."

As he spoke, he looked up at Zhang Duo, and seeing the gray hair of the senior supervisor, he couldn't help but sigh, "Superintendent, you and I are both old, you are 67 this year, but the slaves are also in their early [-]s, old, old , I can't manage it..."

Speaking of this topic, Zhang Duo's joyful mood became a little depressed, looking at Zhao Si's gray hair, he couldn't help shaking his head and sighing: "I never thought that it took me 60 years to enter the palace for a full meal. When I was young, I thought about when I could go home and have a look... Now I am old, I am old, and I have to leave, but I can't bear it... Sigh, you said that we rootless people go back to work What? If the family has some skills, how can they send us into the palace? This parting is 60 years, and there is no one in the family..."

"The superintendent didn't look for his family?"

Zhao Si also said sadly: "It's true, if you really want to leave, you can't bear it..."

"Look? Why did you look for it? Heh heh, look at Jin Gu, ouch, it's better not to see these plague-stricken things! I sent you away cruelly before, but now I want you because I look at the faces of the masters." Jin Gu was almost tortured to death by those bastards, so the miscellaneous family did not go looking for it. His Majesty rewarded him with a house, which is next door to Dajian He’s house, not far from Jin Gu’s house. , just find He Dajian to have tea and chat with Jin Gu, how comfortable it is."

Then he pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "I said, brother Zhao, you are different from us, why don't you ask for a favor and have a counter meal with that Jingu? You took care of each other in the East Palace all those years ago. After that, you were still lost for a while..."

Zhao Si's old face turned red, and he said, "Superintendent, what are you talking about? We are all rootless people, how can we think about these things?"

"Hey, you can't say that. Now that you're old, isn't it just looking for a companion? I think Jingu treats you well, and makes clothes for you all the time. You two are going to eat each other. The boys in her family are all That's good, you can be considered as a companion..."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said, "Do you think a godson is not as strong as someone else..."

Zhao Si hurriedly said: "Superintendent, the empress asked the servants to go to the dining room to make eight-treasure porridge for His Majesty. The servants did not dare to delay, so they went..."

Seeing Zhao Si fleeing in embarrassment, Zhang Duo chuckled, "Old boy, most of his body is buried in the ground, and he blushes. People who have studied are different. Oh, why is Zajia not so lucky? It's been many years , that Xiaohong made clothes for me, but the miscellaneous family asked her if she would like to go out of the palace as a companion, and the old woman actually pinched me, really, they are all old, why are you so shy..."

The little yellow gate on the side heard it tremblingly, I'll go, have I heard some secret?Won't be silenced?

Stretching his neck, he said in a low voice: "Big, big, superintendent, it's time to announce the good news..."

"oops!"

Zhang Duo slapped his head, stomped his feet and said, "You son of a bitch, why didn't you remind me? I'm getting old and forgetting things all the time. Go, go, go, go, go, hurry up and inform the empress of this great event!"

While walking, he said: "Oh, I can't even call for promotion for His Majesty. I'm old and useless. I'm here to guard the Ganlu Palace. A few words can forget this important event..."

Soon, Zhang Duo arrived at the gate of Ganlu Hall, adjusted his appearance, and then shouted: "Empress Empress, great joy, great joy!"

"What's the noise?"

Yang Xiaoran put down his book, and when he heard Zhang Duo's voice, he said with a smile, "It's my big companion? Why don't you rest in the room? You're old, so slow down..."

"Empress, great joy, great joy!"

Zhang Duo cupped his hands and saluted, "My Lady, the Crown Princess is happy, happy!"

Yang Xiaoran was taken aback for a moment, and then happily said: "Is this true? How many months?"

"It's been more than three months... Congratulations, empress, congratulations, empress!"

"More than three months?"

Yang Xiaoran frowned, and asked: "Who is the doctor in the palace who is in charge of Donggong Yue's cases? Did it take more than three months to diagnose the Ximai?"

Zhang Duo opened his mouth and looked around. Seeing that they were all reliable people, he lowered his voice and said, "Your Majesty, I have heard that the masters of the East Palace are all very powerful. I guess the Crown Princess may have concealed something. , but also as a last resort..."

Yang Xiaoran narrowed his eyes, and the women who thought of his son couldn't help but have a headache, shook their heads and said: "This child is good in everything else, but only in terms of women, he is all tender and tender, and I don't know who he looks like... Big companion, what do you say , although the late emperor had many concubines, he had a special preference for his mother, and would never allow other women to overstep; Needless to say, your Majesty, but why is this child so windy in this palace?"

Zhang Duo didn't dare to open his mouth casually to talk about the prince's affairs, even if he had an extraordinary status and seniority.A slave is a slave, this is the magic weapon for Zhang Duo to gain a high position in the palace, he is very clear about his role.

But when the empress said this, he couldn't pretend he didn't hear it. After thinking about it for a while, he said cautiously: "My lady, don't people all say it? People are not romantic. A young man is in vain..."

As he spoke, he probably scratched his head again, and said: "I don't know about this, my servant is a rootless person, and I have never experienced a relationship between a man and a woman in this life..."

Yang Xiaoran glanced at him, and said with a smile: "You old ghost, the older you get, the smarter you get, you can't offend anyone."

After finishing speaking, he sighed again, and said: "Cultivate one's morality, regulate the family, govern the country and the world. Although wind and flow are by nature, how can we govern the world if we are not restrained and can't even take care of the housework? This phenomenon does not distinguish between priorities and disrupts the legal system. The concubine is the official wife, and she wants to hide her pregnancy, which shows how fierce the women in the backyard of the Eastern Palace are fighting!"

Having said that, there is already a cold light in his eyes, "Perhaps this palace is easy to talk, so that they mistakenly think that this palace doesn't care about the crown princess. Hehe, the main wife is the main wife, other women... To be honest, if you can , I only hope that Xiang'er has only one wife... It's just that the world doesn't allow it, and they are all poor women, fighting for a husband, forcing the princess to lie to her, hehe... Companion, please send someone to inform His Majesty... Qiu Ju..."

"The servant is here!"

"Pick up the sedan chair immediately, I'm going to see my daughter-in-law..."

"Yes, big girl!"

Zhang Duo secretly sighed in his heart: "Those women are also blind. This princess was appointed by the Empress and His Majesty. If you don't like her, how can you choose her as the Crown Princess? Not to mention that the Tai Tuo is a veteran of the three dynasties..."

Thinking of Wei Zheng, Zhang Duo couldn't help thinking of the situation in the previous dynasty.It's also strange, I don't know what His Majesty said to the Taiwei that day, and not long after, the Taiwei visited the Taifu, and then Li Ji... After walking around, the situation in the court changed. Got to be at peace.

And this year, the Taifu begged for bones again, and even the Taiwei gave him an official, and went back to entertain his grandchildren.Weird!As expected of His Majesty!He must have confided his heart to the Taiwei, which made the Taiwei feel guilty.

With admiration for the emperor, Zhang Duo quickly came to the front court to report the happy event.

Not long after, Xiao Huangmen came out to report: "Superintendent, Your Majesty said he understands. Since the empress has gone, he should go and see later."

The little yellow door paused for a moment, then lowered its voice and said: "We are discussing state affairs inside, and it seems to be related to the fate of the Tang Dynasty. Just now, His Majesty has sent someone to invite the Taifu and Taiwei into the palace..."

Zhang Duo's heart tightened, and he said, "Is there something wrong?"

Xiao Huangmen shook his head, "Nothing has changed, it's just that His Majesty wants to change the way..."

"what?!"

Zhang Duo swayed on his feet. Even if he was an eunuch, he knew the weight of the word reform. Throughout the ages, there were not many good reforms, and Shang Yang succeeded.

Weird!

Isn't it good that the drizzle is moist and silent?Why does Your Majesty suddenly want to bring up the reform in a grand manner?
Seeing that Zhang Duo's complexion was not good, the little Huangmen said again: "Don't worry about the superintendent, in fact, it's just a restructuring of the academy..."

Zhang Duo waved his hand and said, "Understood, you can go back and serve, don't make any noise, this is a state matter, we can't get involved..."

"Yes, Chief Supervisor..."

Zhang Duo looked at the majestic palace in front of him, then looked down at his own toes, and murmured: "This is to completely eradicate all the big and small families..."

As he spoke, he looked up at the sky again, remembering the scene when he first entered the palace. The events of these years flashed before his eyes one after another, and he suddenly laughed, and said in a low voice: "It's good to get rid of it, let them control the talents. If they hadn't annexed the land of the Zajia's family, how could the parents have no other way to send the Zajia into the palace? Shovel it, shovel it! A bunch of useless waste!"
