Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 231 Dystocia
Yiqing was not afraid of the sun, so she packed up very quickly and went out with Mrs. Zheng in the car.

Locked up in the Marquis Mansion all day, she was so bored, and finally had a chance to go out for a drive, she wished she could go out early so that she could stay outside longer.

The four big girls drew lots to decide who would go out and who would stay at home. The ones who could follow to the temple to offer incense were overjoyed, while the ones who were left behind lowered their eyes and pouted. The girl suddenly cheered, extremely happy.

Mama Hong followed, while Mama Chi stayed at home.

When it was time to go out, Mrs. Fang Zheng said that Baozhang caught a cold in the academy and had a stomachache. She had to go and have a look. She couldn't go to the temple. She humbly asked Mrs. Zheng for leave, but Mrs. Zheng didn't say anything. Mrs. Zheng was so jealous , Blame Fang Zheng for being troublesome: people are about to go out, but they come out like this, nothing makes people feel unmotivated, I am afraid that things are not going well today!

I went to the same monastery last time. Mrs. Zheng never likes to make publicity. Yiqing also knows that it is best to keep a low profile recently. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law try to reduce the accompanying people as much as possible. Followed by four or five small carriages, and Eucommia with twenty or thirty guards following around, this walk is still very eye-catching on the street.

Fortunately, many people don't like to go out in summer. There are not many cars and horses on the streets, and the traffic is smooth, and they leave the city soon.

The terrain outside the city is open and the wind is cool. The horses are in good spirits and walk briskly. After more than two hours, the carriages and horses of the Hou's Mansion came to the foot of the mountain where the temple is located, but they found that there were officers and soldiers blocking the mountain road ahead. Preventing pedestrians from going up the mountain, Du Zhong and others stepped forward to negotiate, only to find out that today is the time when Princess Yue is giving birth, and people from the Palace of Yue Palace have packed up the entire temple to pray for Princess Yue, and those officers and soldiers guarding the mountain temple are sent by the Palace of Qi .

The King of Yue has always been close to the King of Qi. When the King of Qi was still in the capital, he was in charge of the guard camp outside the city. Now that the King of Qi is going to defend the northwest frontier, the power of the guard battalion will naturally be handed over to the Ministry of War, but the relationship is still there. Dozens of soldiers is still very easy.

At the foot of the mountain, there were many pilgrims who came to worship Buddha and pray for blessings. Everyone was stopped outside the mountain gate and said nothing, but their complaints and dissatisfaction were all shown on their faces.

The Buddha said that all living beings are equal, but the royal power arbitrarily extended his hand to the pure ground of Buddhism, depriving faithful men and women of the right to pray and pray for blessings. This cannot but make people feel aggrieved.

After sitting in the carriage for a long time, everyone's legs and feet were tired and numb. Madam Zheng ordered the servants to find a shady place and put up a curtain, let everyone get out of the car and walk around. You must be sincere in worshiping Buddha. Fu, that's outrageous.There is also a limit to praying for blessings in the Yuewang Mansion, so it can't occupy the temple for a whole day.

Unexpectedly, Du Zhong sent people to come back again and reported the truth to Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Young: "Princess Yue started to mobilize in the middle of the night last night, and she failed to give birth until now. The mountain temple specially set up an altar for Princess Yue to pray for blessings, and no other pilgrims will be accepted! After Princess Yue gave birth smoothly, all the incense in this temple will be enshrined by the Yue Palace, and no other pilgrims will be allowed to worship today!"

Mrs. Zheng was stunned: "Then what should I do? We are so sincere, we have invited incense candle offerings out, is it possible to pull them back?"

Du Zhong said in a low voice: "Madam, from a small point of view, why don't you find another temple? This place is not where we stay for a long time, so let people inquire and find out: Princess Qi, Marquis of Linyang and other marquises At this time, I am praying for Princess Yue in the temple! If Princess Qi knows that the wife and young lady are here, I am afraid that she will come to invite her in. At that time, will the wife and young lady pray for Princess Yue, or for our own family? It turned out to be a good thing, but if... it would be hard to tell!"

Yiqing listened to Du Zhong's words with multiple meanings, and felt a little nervous: Princess Qi and Mrs. Marquis of Linyang really shouldn't mess with them at this time. If they are forced to invite them into the temple, let alone praying for Princess Yue, when the time comes I'm afraid I don't even know how I died!

At the moment, he didn't care whether Mrs. Zheng had figured it out, just pretended to be unwell, and asked Mrs. Zheng to find another temple, so that she could rest at ease.

For Yiqing's request, Mrs. Zheng did everything she could to get everyone into the car. The car and horses were guarded by Du Zhong and others, and they left the foot of the White Horse Temple quickly.

Wang Yaozhen and Feng Yuejiao were in the same car, and seeing that Yiqing could not pay her respects as she wished, Feng Yuejiao felt satisfied and happy for no reason. Zhi jaw stared blankly at the lush mountain scenery outside the window alone.

Although she restrained herself repeatedly, she had to admit that Yuan Feng, King of Yue, had always existed in her thoughts!Often inadvertently, or when I dream back at midnight, I would think of him, the passionate and romantic sixth prince, playing the piano with her, giving her beautiful jade, and holding her hand in the countryside, but in the end, he married other women!

In those days, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave, her soul was lost, and her heart and lungs were in pain!
Fortunately, Brother Jing is back!
Brother Jing came back in time, filled the void in her heart, and did his best for her father's affairs, saving her father and brother from the death penalty. The name of the guilty minister was exempted, and she, her mother and sisters would not be confiscated into the officialdom and become prostitutes or slaves!
So, better brother Jing!Brother Jing is sincere to her, and she must not lose Brother Jing's love!

Wang Yaozhen raised her hand to wipe away the two lines of tears on her cheeks, and looked at the mountains and forests in the distance with firm and persistent eyes!
Rongping Houfu and his party finally walked along the official road for more than [-] li under the guidance of Du Zhong, and found a Yunshui nunnery, which was not very big, hidden in the valley beside the road. It was neat and quiet, deep and elegant. There were about a dozen bhikkhunis including the abbot inside. There were painted statues of the Buddha and a concubine Guanyin. Mrs. Zheng brought Yiqing and the others into the room and used all her sincerity to offer incense and pay homage. Afterwards, he gave away gold, silver, rice and other things as money for sesame oil. The abbot heard that it was the wife of the Marquis of Rongping in the capital. I prayed for blessings, prepared a few tables of delicate and refreshing vegetarian meals, brought out the fresh melons, fruits and fragrant tea grown in the nunnery, and served the people to eat and drink, and after a rest from the heat, Fang courteously sent them out of the mountain gate, taking advantage of the early weather , Hurry back to the city.

Mrs. Zheng was very satisfied with one matter on her mind. Seeing that Yiqing got into the carriage and leaned on the cushion and closed her eyes to sleep, she told the driver to drive slowly. The left and right things have been done, so don't worry about where to go, and return before dark. It's done when you get home.So the group walked in a leisurely manner, and did not enter the city until dusk fell.

After returning to the Hou Mansion, I reported to Mrs. Zheng what I had experienced today. After hearing this, Mrs. Zheng nodded frequently, and said to Mrs. Zheng: "You are doing the right thing. You don't have to have a big temple. The Dharma is boundless, as long as we put our heart into it." If we do it, the Empress Sending Son Guanyin can appreciate our sincerity!"

When everyone was sitting around in the Anhe Hall for dinner, they suddenly saw the big steward coming to report: "Just received the news: Princess Yue is dead!"

Everyone in the room was shocked, and one of the chopsticks in Yiqing's hand slipped, and she couldn't help being shocked: Princess Yue, she had never seen it, but she had heard it many times, and because of her today, she abandoned the big temple and ran Going to the small nunnery to offer incense, at that time, I just thought about it, and hoped that she would have a smooth delivery!

Unexpectedly, a fresh life, as a princess, would also die of dystocia in order to give birth to a child!
Yiqing closed her eyes, and sighed sadly in her heart: Living in this backward age, there is no medical equipment, and there is no guarantee for a woman to give birth to a child. It is really a narrow escape!It's too dangerous to risk your life!

Another person in the room who was greatly shocked was Wang Yaozhen. When she heard that Princess Yue passed away, she was also startled for a long time, and she didn't remember to eat.

Back in the room that night, Wang Yaozhen called Qing He in, closed the door, and the master and servant talked softly, Qing He said: "Miss, you can rest assured this time, I will sprinkle all the powdered medicine into the water tank by the stove." The water in the tank is said to be a mountain spring transported by carriage from the mountain outside the city, and it is specially used to cook food for the young lady. As long as the young lady eats the food cooked in the water, after two or three times, it will be as we wish Already!"

Wang Yaozhen also breathed a sigh of relief, and asked joyfully, "How did you do it? They let you into that small kitchen?"

Qing He smiled so hard that she couldn't see her teeth, she couldn't hide her pride: "I spent some money to let the big kitchen cook a few dishes, and invited Mother Zhong and Ruyi to eat, and reminded Mother Zhong if she wants to drink some wine during the dinner. If you invite a few more people to have a drink with you, let's have a good time. Sure enough, Mama Zhong thought of Mama Chi over there, so she asked the little girl to invite her. Mama Chi brought two more mothers, and the women were drinking wine. While we were talking, I heard Mama Chi say that Mama Zhang, who was in charge of the kitchen, asked the young lady to go home to see her little grandson today, so I found an excuse to go to Yuhui Courtyard. Sure enough, the kitchen door was locked. It happened that the window was not closed, and the water tank was right by the window! God helped me, I quickly sprinkled the powder in it, and I came back! It was almost noon, and the little girls and women were all I rushed to the big kitchen to find something to eat, no one saw me!"

Wang Yaozhen smiled and praised: "Well done! I'll tell you that you can do things!"

At this time, in the upper room of Yuhui Courtyard, Yiqing was reclining on the soft pillow, surrounded by Huayu, Yunping and Cuixiang Yanying, listening to the little girl Mingliu to report: "At that time they all went to eat, it was me and Xiangfeng was on duty in the yard, and Xiangfeng went to the other side. I sat by the kitchen and embroidered shoe uppers. I saw Qinghe coming from a distance, and I looked around for something. I wanted to see what she was going to do, so I went Hiding behind a big pillar, I saw her go to the kitchen door and push the door open, then glanced inside, then went under the window, reached in with her hand, took something or threw something in, and soon Let's go! After she left, I called Xiangfeng, took the key and opened the kitchen door, and the two of us checked inside for a long time, nothing was missing, and nothing was added!"

Hua Yu took a deep breath, frowned, and said, "Then why is she here? This Qinghe is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp, I knew it a long time ago! It's okay, she won't bother to come over and make such a mess!"

Cuixiang was annoyed: "Simply, I'll catch her and ask her. I don't have to make people feel nervous. Do you dare to use this small kitchen?"

Yanying didn't make a sound, but nodded in agreement with Cuixiang's words.

Yun Ping said: "I think, Hanjin Courtyard has those two people living in it now, so the Moon Cave Gate should be locked, it will save a lot of trouble!"

Yiqing glanced at the girls, and said lazily: "Now, I can't do anything for the time being, the most important thing is to take precautions - you guard the small kitchen for me, I don't want to be drugged Die! Mingliu is very good today, a big reward! As for the small kitchen, I really don’t dare to use it! However, I think if I replace all the big and small things in it, it should be usable, right? Don't you think so?"

"Yes, young lady! We understand!"

Hua Yu and Yun Ping exchanged glances, thinking that they should not be taken lightly in the future, and the secret precautions of the Yuhui Courtyard must be strictly guarded.
