History of Empress Dowager Development

Chapter 156

Qin's trip to Qingqiu Courtyard lasted for a long time, and she didn't come back until dusk.He Wenzhan had a dinner party tonight, and the old lady didn't ask them to have dinner together for a long time because she was too annoyed. After Mrs. Qin went to say hello, she still came back to have dinner with Lin Lang and He Weichen.

After the meal, the mother and daughter sat in the inner room, and when they talked about Zhuang Yuanjin, Qin said, "Your aunt has already made arrangements, so we don't need to intervene, and you don't have to worry about it."

"Are you going to make up?" Lin Lang asked.

Qin looked at her strangely, "How old are you, Bell?" He said and patted her hand, "There is one thing you have to remember, even if you miss your eldest sister in the future, you should avoid going to the dealer's house, so as not to be born. The accident disturbed your aunt's arrangement."

"I know." Lin Lang nodded.She has gone to Jiangnan since He Xuanji got married, and although she has been to the dealer several times after her return, she has never met this brother-in-law. If Qifeng hadn't said that when she met in Xuanqing Temple, she would have been kept in the dark.It was also fortunate that the two had never met before, so Zhuang Yuanjin didn't recognize her, otherwise the situation would have been much more chaotic.

She remembered Qin Shi's advice, but she seldom went out again, and as she got older, she would occasionally wear a veiled hat when she went out.When going to Tianlin Peak, he was also extra careful, so as not to cause another disturbance when he met Zhuang Yuanjin.It's just that I was puzzled in my heart after all, I didn't know what kind of plan the eldest lady was making.

And in the deep palace garden, Zhuang Yan was snuggling beside the queen and talking with her.Zhuang Yan is the closest to the queen's nieces and nieces, and the queen is usually very concerned, "I heard from the prince that I saw you in the Golden Bird Tower before and started arguing with someone?"

Zhuang Yan did not expect the crown prince to sue such a case.She and the prince were fighting spirits when they were young. When she grew up, she was just a princess with a different surname, but the prince was the heir apparent.But the prince is naughty, he likes to tease crickets and grasshoppers, he likes to scare her with bugs when he is free, or complains to the queen, this cousin, this kind of thing is not once or twice .

She made a look of aggrieved, and could only say: "The lantern viewing in the Canary Tower is the best. There are too many people, and it is inevitable that there will be friction. Actually, it is nothing, even if a maid walked into me and refused to admit it. It's very rude, I just taught them a few words, and then the crown prince came forward to speak for them, so let it go."

The queen also knows the temperament of her own children. The Jun family has been in the world for hundreds of years. The emperor is obsessed with carpentry and does not do business. The prince is not restrained by the emperor.She just thought it was the prince complaining against this cousin again, so she believed Zhuang Yan's words, "Whose maid is so short-sighted."

"I didn't know whose family it was, but I taught her a few words when I saw her being rude." Zhuang Yan obediently poured tea and peeled fruits for the queen, and said: "It was only later that I found out that her master is the sixth girl of the He family. , no wonder the prince wants to help her."

"Miss He Liu..." The queen thought for a while, but she didn't remember such a person, so Zhuang Yan reminded: "It's the daughter of He Wenzhan, a scholar of Zhaowenguan, and now the niece of the right minister. When I was young, I always liked to go to Zhaowenguan. I've seen her too."

"It's her." The queen finally remembered, "I've heard of it before, isn't she not young now?"

"Already 11 years old." Zhuang Yan praised her vigorously in order to facilitate a beautiful event, "Her mother is a great beauty in the south of the Yangtze River. This girl He Liu is also beautiful. The prince even praised her for her beauty that day."

"Oh?" The queen became interested, "What did she say?"

"She is very polite, and she didn't dare to talk about it. According to my opinion, she is good-looking, and she is proficient in poetry and calligraphy. I am afraid that she has fallen into the eyes of the prince." Zhuang Yan giggled.The queen was surprised, "You rarely praise people like this." Zhuang Yan smiled and said, "There are not many girls who are worthy of praise, but Miss He Liu is an exception. Auntie, I have always distinguished between public and private. "

"It's rare that you have the heart. Last time, you didn't mind that Pei Mingxi's identity recommended her. This time, you had a quarrel with someone, and you can help to talk like this." The queen looked at Zhuang Yan very lovingly, "I also care about the prince. I'm quite worried, if Miss He Liu is really kind and the Prince looks up to me, I'm afraid she can help him calm down."

Zhuang Yan's goal was achieved, and she responded with a few words, but she restrained herself in a timely manner.

Lin Lang didn't know that the wishful thinking in the palace was crackling, she was in a good mood at the moment, and asked Jinping to grind ink and lay paper, and she sat by the window, slowly writing letters to Xu Lang.The begonias outside are already ripe, and clusters of red ones hang on the branches, hidden among the green leaves, which are very cute.

This crabapple also has a background. It is said that it was sent by the Xu family when she was born, and it was made up of peonies, magnolias, and osmanthus in the Lanling Courtyard.Now ten years have passed, this crabapple has grown luxuriantly, especially in spring, when the flowers are hanging down, attracting bees and butterflies, and against the wisteria, it has become the most beautiful scenery in Lanling courtyard.

Jinxiu was squatting between the branches and leaves of the crabapple tree right now, picking the ripe fruits, and laying mats under the woody and watery fragrances, and then took the small baskets, and the three of them tossed happily, saying that they wanted to do it. Some candied crabapples to satisfy Lin Lang's hunger.

Everything seemed bright and beautiful, with a smile on the corner of Lin Lang's lips, and the tip of the pen swimming slowly.

Outside the window, Dong Xue, who was beside Qin, ran in in a panic.

"Miss is not good!" Dong Xue was out of breath, before she could stand still, she said, "I just got the news that the eldest girl's child is gone. The eldest lady and the wife are anxious after hearing this, and have already gone to the dealer!"

Lin Lang was taken aback by the news, paused, and asked in disbelief, "What do you think is wrong with Big Sister?"

"The child in the womb of the eldest girl is gone." Dongxue looked anxious, "It is said that she suddenly started to suffer from abdominal pain in the middle of the night yesterday. It's already passed, if you are afraid that the girl will run away, ask me to come over and say something first."

The tip of the Langhao pen still rested on the paper, smearing a large blob of ink. It took Lin Lang a moment to react, her fingers trembling slightly, and the brush fell on the table.

He Xuanji has been in good health since she was a child, and the fetal image was very stable when she went there before. How could the baby be gone when it was fine?Who did it?
It was a very difficult day, Qin Shi and Da Furen were away, Jiang Shi was also in a hurry when Lin Lang went to Wangchun Yuan.Jiang Shi was also present when Xin'er was reported, but what she knew was almost the same as what Dong Xue said, and the two of them couldn't send someone to inquire, so they could only be in a hurry.
