Chapter 158 Killing two birds with one stone

The queen mother was also so angry that her heart ached, but she couldn't leave her family alone, so she raised her head and winked at the old nun next to her, and finally sighed, "I'm afraid this girl was also confused by the sudden change." , although she is naughty on weekdays, she has no bad intentions. Qiu'er, where is Mrs. Dong now? You need to send an imperial doctor to treat her. After all, she is pregnant, so don't be careless. As for Hongxia, You don't want to be as knowledgeable as a little girl like her. The emperor's grandmother is in charge, and when she recovers, she will go and apologize to Mrs. Dong, okay?"

While talking like this, the old mother helped Hongxia get up and walk to the inner hall.Hongxia was finally fully awake at this moment, and she wanted to rush over to complain and defend herself, but the old mother had already covered her mouth.

Murong Huaide knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager again, and said in a low voice, "Grandmother, usually because the father is seriously ill, the grandson rarely serves in front of the Empress Dowager. Now it is because of this incident that the Empress Dowager is upset, The grandson is really unfilial. But the grandson owes a lot to the Dong family, and now she is pregnant again. The grandson secretly hopes that the father will see the successor of the palace before he returns to the west. However, the grandson is still with him today. On the other hand, this disaster happened to her, if someday my nephew is not around..."

At this point, he didn't continue, but everyone understood.He didn't intend to lightly reveal what happened today, at least he had to ask for a "talisman" for his wife and children.

The queen mother didn't expect her grandson to be so tough, and her face was a little bad.A smile flashed in the eyes of the emperor on the side, Daqi didn't need a prince with literary and military skills, but he didn't mind having one more prince who had no intention of power but loved romance.Of course, if the prince gave all his infatuation to a peasant girl, it would be even better if he didn't borrow half of the power of in-laws.

"Okay, your temper and temperament are very similar to Brother Wang's. It's nothing else. Why are you so infatuated with women? Speaking of which, Mrs. Dong has royal blood and married you when she was poor. It can be said that she is virtuous and loyal, it is really rare, why not give her a proper name today." While speaking, the emperor waved his hand to signal the eunuch Bingbi to come forward, and ordered, "I will pass on my will, and the Dong family will be the son of the king of Zhongshan. Concubine, reward a hundred pieces of brocade, eight plates of jewellery, and a handle of jade ruyi."

Murong Huaide immediately kowtowed to thank him, and when he raised his head again, there was no trace of grief or indignation on his face, it was full of joy.Seeing this, the emperor couldn't help joking, "You rascal, are you just waiting for my words? You are usually a sensible person, but I didn't expect that I would even plan for a woman."

Murong Huaide quickly flattered him, "If the uncle doesn't love my nephew, it's useless for my nephew to be sloppy. Don't worry, my nephew will only marry Dong Shi in this life, and I won't bother my nephew again."

"Only marry one?" Now not only the emperor, but even the concubines looked over in amazement and asked, "What's the meaning of this?"

Murong Huaide smiled foolishly, "Uncle, in my nephew's eyes, there is no room for other women except Dong Shi. It is enough to marry only one woman in this life, no side concubines or concubines are needed, the family eats, drinks and has fun Live your best life."

"It's worthless, after you meet a better woman, maybe you'll change your mind again." The emperor scolded his nephew, but even the last ounce of suspicion was removed from his heart.

Murong Huaide didn't defend, just smiled and didn't speak.At this moment, many concubines have mixed feelings in their hearts. They are both women. They are really jealous of this woman surnamed Dong, guessing what she looks like, and how they captured such an excellent man, so that he treats each other so infatuatedly. ?
The Empress Dowager Xu also thought so, and was eager to redeem the impression of her stupid grandniece in the emperor's heart, so she said with a smile, "Since Mrs. Dong has become our royal family, let's take her into the palace to walk around in a few days." The Ai family also asked Hongxia to salute her as an apology."

"Grandmother's words are serious. Today, my grandson acted recklessly in a hurry. I hope grandma will not blame her. Mrs. Dong makes good dim sum. In three days, my grandson will bring her into the palace and offer two boxes to my grandma to taste something new."

After hearing this, the empress dowager finally felt a little relieved, and asked about King Zhongshan's condition again.Murong Huaide answered one by one, and finally excused himself to serve his father with medicine, so he hurriedly left the palace.

The emperor also got up and resigned from the empress dowager and went to the front hall to approve the memorial. All the concubines had no excitement to watch and no emperor to please, so they also left one after another.As for how the empress dowager taught the stupid grandniece of her natal family, no one cared...

Murong Huaide picked up an alleyway with few pedestrians, and ran all the way back, occasionally turning his head to look at the palace that was gradually being left behind, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

It is said that pulling a tooth out of a tiger's mouth is the most difficult thing, but today he has successfully claimed his beloved wife's title and completely dispelled the emperor's suspicion.It's a pity that his wife doesn't love power, otherwise she doesn't know how happy she will be.But that's one of the reasons why he loves her so much...

At noon in July, the sun was so hot that the bluestone pavement seemed to be melting.Concubine Liu raised the curtains and looked out while drinking tea, feeling so angry that she was about to explode.She has been waiting for more than half an hour, but she still doesn't see her son come back. Could it be that she really wants to spend a day here in the sun?
The maids and women outside the car were even more miserable at the moment. The master was sitting in the car and had tea to drink, but they were standing directly under the sun.It's a pity that there is not even a willow tree planted outside this other courtyard. If I wait any longer, I'm afraid I will die in the sun...

When Murong Huaide rode his horse and turned into the alleyway, he saw everyone in the palace looking slumped, so he immediately frowned.He jumped off the horse and threw the reins to Boss A who came out after hearing the news, and asked in a low voice, "Is someone coming from the mansion?"

A strange smile flashed in Boss A's eyes, and he replied, "The concubine is here, but the madam said she was not feeling well, so she didn't let anyone in."

Murong Huaide was stunned for a moment, then asked again, "Has Qingfeng checked the pulse?"

"After the consultation, Madam was a little frightened, and now she drank soothing soup and fell asleep."

"That's good." Murong Huaide turned to look at the carriage, and ordered lightly, "Remember in the future, this is the Dong Mansion. Apart from Madam and me, there are no other masters."

"Young master, don't worry, it's easy for your subordinates." Boss A responded with a smile, and led the horse into the door.

Everyone in the palace was awakened by the sound of horseshoes at this moment, and they were all as energetic as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they all hoped that the masters would hurry up and make a noise.No matter who wins or loses, the mother and the son, they can always rest their legs earlier and drink water.

It's a pity that Concubine Liu obviously didn't have any sympathy for the servants. She clearly heard the voices of people greeting her son, but she sat in the car and refused to say a word.

It is said that mother and child are by nature, Concubine Liu insisted on putting her anger down, and Murong Huaide was also determined not to give in.Yesterday he made it clear that he would not marry anyone except Mrs. Dong, and the royal family would not allow it.But his mother and concubine made him think of a way, she must make his cousin his concubine, and today she even came to him again.This is because my daughter-in-law is hot and not easy to bully, so I didn't let her in at all, otherwise he doesn't know what kind of farce he will see when he comes back now.

Thinking in this way, he stood quietly outside the carriage, also sternly refusing to say anything.

Their mother and son resisted so silently, but all the servants of the palace were so angry that they cursed secretly in their hearts, but they didn't dare to show annoyance on their faces.The two women, who usually had some face, looked at the old mother pitifully, and silently begged her to think of a way.

The old mama also stood with stiff legs and was dizzy from the sun. She couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to speak a few words of persuasion.

But before she could speak, another seven or eight fast horses and a carriage arrived at the entrance of the alley. The man in the first place was wearing a dark-coloured shirt and an octagonal gauze hat, and he could be recognized from a long distance away as a palace servant. His identity, while the riders and drivers behind him were all guards with horizontal knives on their waists.

A smile flashed in Murong Huaide's eyes, he turned around to greet him, and said with a smile, "Boss Wang, the weather is so hot, why did you take this trip?"

The eunuch surnamed Wang jumped off the horse, quickly helped Murong Huaide with a smile, and replied, "My lord beat this slave, today is my lord's great joy, how dare this slave not come by himself?"

The two of them were exchanging pleasantries, but Princess Liu in the carriage couldn't bear it any longer. She hurriedly helped the old mother out of the carriage, and went straight to the Wang's servant, and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Are you free for a walk?"

Wang's servant is a fine person, he glanced at the closed door, and responded with a haha, "Your Majesty, don't be impatient, hurry up and ask the Shizi to set up an incense table to receive the order. After the decree is announced, your empress will know."

Murong Huaide also didn't want to cause trouble, so he loudly called the porter to open the middle door and prepare the incense table, and sent someone to the backyard to pass the message.

Dong Rong took a nap after drinking the soothing soup, and finally felt much better now.She was about to ask someone to cook a bowl of jujube porridge to pad her stomach, but Zizhu and Yiba ran in from outside in a panic.One plunged into the closet and began to randomly choose clothes, and the other picked up a comb and began to make up for the master.

Dong Rong was startled by the appearance of the two girls, and asked, "What's the matter, is there a visitor?"

Zi Zhu's subordinates quickly tied up her hair, and at the end she inserted a golden hairpin and replied, "Ma'am, the master has sent a message in the front yard, asking you to hurry up to receive the order."

"Receive the order?" Dong Rong frowned suspiciously, and waited until the two maids finally dressed her up before rushing to the front yard.

Murong Huaide was sitting in the living room drinking tea with the Wang's servant, while Princess Liu was sitting with her nephew and nephew with a sullen face. The aunt and nephew were thinking about something, and the handkerchiefs in their hands were crumpled into twists generally.

As soon as Dong Rong brought the maid into the door, Murong Huaide stood up and greeted him, and asked in a low voice, "Is your body feeling better? If you feel uncomfortable, please call the imperial physician." After finishing speaking, he looked at his wife with a worried face. Slightly convex belly.

Dong Rong shook her head with a smile, and also responded in a low voice, "Don't worry, your son is really tough."

The young couple whispered so intimately that Wang's servant stared at Dong Rong several times in disregard of the rules, but he still couldn't see what was so special about this pretty woman who could be so favored by the prince of Zhongshan .
