Chapter 196 Undercurrent
With a smile on the corner of Hou Yunping's mouth, he helped Liang Yimei with one hand, and said with a smile: "Xuanran took Yantai out to hunt a leopard and returned, and handed it over to Yuweizhai. Your two jars of wine came in handy. Yantai, I'm afraid it's not enough for him to stuff his teeth!"

She also knows that Prince Zhao is good at wine. When they met for the first time, Prince Zhao talked about the source of wine like a rogue, but Liang Yimei liked his boldness very much. Hearing this, she smiled and said: "Second brother still has some, you If you have the ability to get it, just go for it.”

Hou Yunping's eyes lit up, "Then I'll go there now with an uproar, and you don't have to wait for me tonight."

Liang Yimei was taken aback, feeling a little weird in her heart. Ever since the imperial doctor said that her fetus was not stable enough, no matter what happened, Hou Yunping would stay by her side at night. She glanced at Hou Yunping with some doubts, and saw that there was no expression on his face. The strange color was just happy for the reunion of friends, thinking that she was able to go to Baiyun Temple today, and the imperial doctor said that there was no serious problem, so she suppressed the weirdness in her heart.

Liang Yimei nodded, and told Ah Tao to open the money box, "Do you have enough money? It's hard to go out, so I have to buy more things. I heard that my cousin's Duobao Pavilion has brought in a batch of good things." .”

Hou Yunping didn't refuse, and stopped Liang Yimei who was about to see him off, "You'd better rest in the room and go to bed earlier at night!"

Liang Yimei told him to drink less alcohol or something like that.

Seeing that A Li sent Master Hou out, A Tao hesitated to speak, but Liang Yimei didn't notice, A Tao said: "Miss, A Li is also 17 years old, and you can get engaged at this age, why don't you choose for her?" A better marriage."

Liang Yimei took the books that were thrown on the couch and looked at them. Although she had read all these books, she started to dig them out again for prenatal education. She didn't know much about these things, she only knew that when she was pregnant Prenatal education is possible, but she doesn't know much about it starting from a few months, so as soon as the imperial doctor said her fetus was stable, she started reading books.

Liang Yimei flipped through the book, and said indifferently: "You also said that she is only 17 years old, and we don't know the people in the Hou's mansion very well, and we don't even know their temperament. Woolen cloth?"

"Miss!" A Tao was a little anxious. Although the lady is smart but lazy, she is pregnant again, and she can't take care of her. Who knows if something will happen?The young lady is usually smiling, but her temperament is very strong. If something happens, I am afraid that the life with Lord Hou will not be able to go on. "A Li has too many thoughts!"

Liang Yimei said with a smile: "Ali is the smartest among these maids." A cold light flashed in her eyes, "Besides, you underestimate Lord Hou too much. There is not even a housemaid around Master Hou. You think it is Are the maids in the Hou Mansion too well-behaved? Even if Ah Li has thoughts, it’s fine if she doesn’t put them into action, otherwise, I’m afraid Mrs. Tai will be the first person who won’t let her go.” The most important thing is Hou Yunping. The means are not enough in Hou Yunping's eyes.

Ah Ping is good and smart, but she is too peaceful, and Liang Yimei can't force her too much, so she has to stay in the Liang family. Although Ah Li has a big heart, as long as it is used well, it may not be a bad thing. With a smile on her face, didn't A Ping look for A Xing when she arrived?Although Ah Xing is still so carefree, she has become more careful, and has always been by Ah Li's side during these days.

A Tao is still worried, and in the following days, she intentionally or unintentionally separates A Li, but lets Yinger and A Xing serve Hou Yunping together.

Liang Yimei saw it but didn't say anything, she was just puzzled by Hou Yunping's frequent going out these days, before she could ask him, Mrs. Hou came back.

Liang Yimei took people out to meet her, but Mrs. Hou walked two steps with a smile on her face, stepped forward and took Liang Yimei's hand, and said angrily, "Why do you care about these things when you go back to your own home? You'd better stay indoors and watch the weather. Nine out of ten times it will snow, what if it freezes?"

Liang Yimei's forehead was sweating a little. Mother Rui saw her, stepped forward to help Madam Hou's other arm, and said with a smile, "Mrs. Tai, let's go back first."

A group of people returned to the place where Mrs. Tai lived, and when they talked about the Fuguo Mansion, Mrs. Hou suggested enthusiastically: "...We haven't had a lot of fun for a long time. I want to invite a troupe this year to bring your aunt Please come over with my cousins ​​and sisters-in-law, our two families are very lively!"

Naturally, Liang Yimei had no objection, so she talked about which troupe to invite.Just as he was talking happily, Hou Yunping came back with a chill in his body. Liang Yimei didn't smell the familiar smell of wine on him. No wonder he came back so early today?
Mrs. Hou was even happier to see Hou Yunping, she ordered people to change his clothes, make tea, and scolded him: "Your daughter-in-law is pregnant, and she came in in such a hurry with the cold air, she wouldn't change her body to warm up first. Some clothes again?"

Liang Yimei put the problems of the past few days behind her and helped Hou Yunping change the clothes on her body. Madam Hou smiled so much that her eyebrows and eyes were crooked when she saw it, and whispered to Mother Rui: "Thank you for this marriage. emperor!"

The Hou family was happy and happy, but the Kunning Palace had a completely different atmosphere. The empress's face became even colder in the cold night, "...he has a great temper. What a stick!" Anger appeared on the queen's face, "She is just pregnant, and now she is holding it in the palm of her hand like this, will she be able to pay it off in the future?"

Concubine Ou Guifei looked at her with some disapproval, "They are living a good life, why do you have to intervene among them?" Her brows showed a bit sad, "Didn't you just get mad at the old Marquis for wanting to treat you?" Shall I do it? What is the difference between what you do now and what he did back then? It’s the same as beating mandarin ducks!"

These words were very serious for the queen. The queen's face changed, she fell silent, and said after a long time: "The backyard is not stable, and he will naturally have less energy to stay in the court. The game between us can no longer take these things into consideration. Already!"

Concubine Ou Guifei's expression was a little sad, why didn't she know?If they lose, not only will they be doomed, but the Ou family behind her, and the fifth prince whom they brought up with their own hands may all be...

The queen said coldly: "This time he can make the Ou family lose their salt field in Shandong, and next time they can attack the Ou family's shop, so we can't make concessions, lest he think we are really playing tricks on the rat and become even more unscrupulous." She said to Concubine Ou: "Go back and tell them that once the new year is over, I will issue an edict. I wonder if my fifth younger brother will resist the edict for my sister-in-law?"

Concubine Ou Guifei lowered her eyes, her eyes were dim and unclear. Although she didn't know much about government affairs, she knew Hou Yunping very well. She had been her opponent for more than ten years, and she had always stood by the queen's side. A person who can bend and stretch but is full of pride, this kind of person is the most terrifying opponent!

That is, she can think of all kinds of ways to deal with the Queen's decree, let alone him?Not to mention other things, it is the worst policy, take him back and lock him in the yard, can the queen still press him into the bridal chamber?
With Hou Yunping's pride, I'm afraid he will never touch the married daughter of the Ou family in his whole life, right?If she is quieter, maybe he can make her die forever, a coffin after death, if she disturbs Mrs. Changping Hou, there are so many ways in this world to make people die silently. As a general of a country, Hou Yunping is even more There is no shortage of such means, can the queen still convict Chang Pinghou and his wife for a concubine?

Once this is the case, others will not say how the queen killed relatives righteously, but think that the queen has ulterior motives, right?
She wanted to persuade the queen, but she just thought that she had become more and more stubborn in the past few years. She was afraid that the words would have counterproductive effects, and she swallowed them after turning a corner. It seemed that she could only start with the Ou family. Even if it's just a concubine, she's still a living person, so she's sacrificed for no reason!
Concubine Ou Guifei changed the subject and talked about the New Year, "... I heard that the emperor is going to hold a banquet in the palace, and officials of the third rank and above will be present." Speaking of this, Concubine Ou Guifei smiled, "I heard that Mr. Zheng He was also invited, but he is favored, I am afraid that he is the only official in the fourth rank who can attend with special permission?"

The queen's reaction was a little cold, and she responded lightly, "He is indeed very talented, but it's a pity!"

Concubine Ou Gui was a little puzzled, the queen always liked talented people, when Zheng Jue was demoted because of King Lu, the queen persuaded the emperor about it, why did she say that this time?

Helplessness flashed in the queen's eyes, "Zheng Jue has a good relationship with the Liang family. It is said that my sister-in-law was raised by him, and she and Liang Yimu, Liang Yilin and others are even called brothers."

The queen turned the finger in her hand, lowered her eyes, and said without expression: "I heard that the Shang family is also among them. Shang Zhiqing, who was only the second room, used to communicate with them, but now the old fox of the Shang family's second room has taken the initiative. She snorted coldly, "They can't even handle their own family affairs well, so they meddled in other people's affairs!"

Concubine Ou Gui was startled when she saw the hostility in her eyes, and felt a dull pain in her heart. The empress once said that matters in the front yard should be settled in the front yard. It is not a gentleman's act to attack innocent people in the backyard, but In the past two years, she seems to have gradually forgotten the disdain at the beginning.

How high-spirited the queen used to be, smiling wantonly while riding a horse, she could still stand in front of the emperor on the battlefield of men, and look at the soldiers below with pride, but the harem seems to have worn away her spirit for more than ten years up.

Concubine Ou Guifei was a little lost and thought, was the reason why the old Hou Ye opposed them so fiercely because he saw that I would imprison her?

Concubine Ou Guifei left with a pale face, but bitterness flashed in the eyes of the queen behind her. She didn't know what Concubine Ou Guifei was thinking, but the Hou family and the Li family almost blocked her way, and she had no choice but to do this .

The queen's eyes flashed unwillingness, those ministers and generals who surrendered to her were also the Hou family and the Li family behind her, but if they knew the relationship between the Hou and Li families and her, they would be the first to abandon her.Why do you look down on her just because she is a woman?She is no worse than the rest of the Hou family, but the military households of the Hou family only obey the orders of the men of the Hou family!
Liang Yimei didn't know anything about these things, so Hou Yunping naturally wouldn't bring it up. On New Year's Eve, Mrs. Hou and Hou Yunping asked for leave from the palace because of her poor health, and didn't enter the palace to congratulate her. Not to mention that he didn't enter the palace to celebrate the New Year, the emperor didn't force it, Hou Yunping just went to the palace for a cutscene, just after dinner at home, he rushed back, and the whole family kept vigil together!
 I didn't expect it to be so late, so sorry!
