Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 328 The Grand Finale (8)
"Oh." Tao Yu stopped thinking about the poppy seeds, pointed to the two dice on the table and said, "See what's strange about these two things."

The imperial doctor picked up the dice again, looked at it, squeezed it and licked it. After looking at it for a long time, he said: "This thing is stabbed with ivory, it is solid, and there is nothing strange about it."

Tao Yu covered his forehead and said, "A pack of flower seeds, two ivory dice...is it really that simple?"

As he spoke, he picked up the envelope and looked inside, only to see that there was still a piece of paper, but when he took it out, it was a gift list. Then he remembered that he had asked Beiliao for the list of gifts he presented when he surrendered.

He read the gift list from beginning to end, and finally became furious, gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Shi Yan, Shi Yan! No wonder he brought me back with a letter like a piece of waste paper from the Northern Liao Dynasty! So the real Let him swallow all the good things!"

After hearing the words, Concubine Qiong leaned over and carefully looked at the gift list, she was also startled when she saw it, and said: "Ah, so many!"

Tao Yu said: "That's a country, how few gifts do they send! It's a pity that I didn't see any of them!"

Concubine Qiong is even more of a profit-seeking woman. Not only does she not share Tao Yu's worries, but she is very provocative. Seeing this, she said: "The emperor is in the deep palace all day long. You know what the ministers have done outside. What you can see is better. It is said that the big officials in the frontier are all arrogant. The mansion is built like the palace, not to mention that Shi Yan, who holds a heavy army in his hand. These years, he has been swallowing military pay and selling military food. Yes, let the soldiers loot the people, it is more majestic than the emperor!"

When she said this, Tao Yu felt that Shi Yan was a disaster even more, so he clenched the gift list in his hand, asked the eunuch to take an imperial decree and wrote it down, and then threw it to a big eunuch, saying: "Go, give it to the Dali Temple Secretary! "

After the eunuch passed the decree, Tao Yu didn't bother to check Xianglai's intentions, so he ordered the eunuch, "Send this letter and things to the prince, and ask him to send it to Princess Beiliao, and tell him to know what dice are for by the way." Useful, if the woman doesn't say anything, use the child to force her to submit!"

The eunuch promised to take the things and went to the East Palace.

Coincidentally, today is Xiao Luoping's full moon day, even without Tao Yu's order, Tao Qian planned to let the nanny carry Xiao Luoping to Jinping Garden to visit Xianglai.

It is said that Tao Qian was not used to Xiao Luoping when he first arrived in the East Palace, but fortunately, this little guy is very cute and rarely cries, and with the milk from Xianglai and the nanny, Luo Ping is becoming more and more mellow every day Every day, I blinked my curious little eyes and looked around, showing a silly and natural smile from time to time. I felt itchy in my heart when I saw it, and I touched my face twice when I had nothing to do.

Tao Qian was very happy to get the letter from the eunuch today, knowing that Xianglai had been waiting for a reply for a long time, so she asked the nanny to bring Luo Ping to see Xianglai.

Xianglai was taken care of by Qu Xiuchan throughout the confinement period. Although this person had the status of a concubine, she was not hypocritical at all. In addition, Xianglai took care of her and a lot of nurses, so these two people were related to Xianglai. Lai Yixin, and although his son is not raised by himself, he can still see him often, so Xianglai is doing well for a while, the only worry is that one day Tao Yu will think of him again, whether he uses his son to threaten him or use him Other methods are in a difficult situation, and I am in a worrying situation.

What she is looking forward to the most this month is that Luo Jinxing's reply letter will arrive as soon as possible, so that she can take the first step if she wants to get the things she wants as soon as possible.

Now that Tao Qian handed Luo Jinxing's letter into her hands, she was no less excited than when Luo Jinxing got her letter.

The letter had already been opened and read, which she had expected a long time ago. Even her life was in the hands of others, so there was no privacy at all.

After taking out the letter, she saw the poppy seeds and dice at the first sight. With the poppy seeds, her heart immediately felt at ease. When she looked at the dice again, others didn't understand the meaning, but she knew it at a glance. The man was borrowing something to tease his feelings.

He also knew that he couldn't say it clearly in the letter, so he should express his love for him in this way.

Holding the dice in his hand, Xianglai couldn't calm down for a long time. With his thoughtfulness, even if he was here, it was worth it to be frightened.

It took her a long time to unfold the letter paper and read it.

"Father and Second Aunt have been brought into the palace after you left, and the palace people have taken good care of them..." This person is always so thoughtful, and he can always think of and handle things that he cares about first.

"Hui Ling and Xu Che are going to get married. After they get married, they will go to the southern part of the Northern Liao Dynasty to cultivate fields and build farms..." Maybe the workers on the farm are all former Northern Liao Army?It's a good idea to farm in busy season and train soldiers in slack season!
"I copied another copy of the gift list in detail, and attached it to the letter..." Since it was attached to the letter, it should have been in Tao Yu's hands long ago, and now Shi Yan will go away without food!

"Hui Ling found the flower seeds left by her mother and brought them to you." Hui Ling was still so clever, she didn't choose the wrong person.

"The baby's name is Luo Ping, you can choose the small characters, pick something nice, don't call it Thirty, New Year's Eve..." Xianglai wanted to laugh but didn't. He was just a joke at the beginning, how could he really choose it for the baby? Such an ugly name, as for this Luo Ping?Do you want our mother and child to be safe, or are you telling me to swear to Pingnan, or both?I will help you no matter what...

After reading it, she slowly put down the letter paper, looked at the little Luo Ping in the nurse's arms, and said, "Boy, you finally have a name, your father named you Luo Ping, our Ping'er is now the real son of the prince! "

The nurse walked forward with Luo Ping in her arms, and said fondly, "Little Shizi's eyes have become more flexible in the past two days, and he will chase after things that pass by..."

Tao Qian also said: "Yes sister, he likes to see me more than he likes to see the nanny!"

He is a casual child, always called Princess Xianglai and he felt awkward, so he changed his name to sister, Xianglai also thought it was more kind, so he let him.

Seeing his happy appearance, Xiang Lai also felt happy, took Luo Ping into his arms, and said, "Yes, Chu Yu is smart and kind. Ping'er grew up with his uncle, so he must be a kind and good boy when he grows up."

Tao Qian lay on the table and stretched out her hands to tease Xiao Luoping, saying, "By the way, sister, what are the flower seeds and dice that the King of Beiliao sent you for? I inquired and told him."

Xianglai's heart moved slightly, no matter how close he was to Tao Qian, no matter how kind he was to his mother and son, he couldn't let him know that he wanted to use poppy to deal with Tao Yu, no matter how bad his conscience was, he couldn't take such a risk ...

Thinking of her, she said: "Flower seeds are of course for growing flowers. My mother loved flowers the most when she was alive, and she left these flower seeds when she passed away. I used to live in no fixed place. I wanted to plant them in the palace to miss my mother, but I didn't want to just move in. The royal palace, but became a hostage and came to Nanliao, so I can only grow here..."
