Chapter 490: The Imperial Capital Storm No. 42


Chapter 490 Ah Xi and Su Bing were pregnant one after another, which made He Lao Niang very anxious.

He Lao Niang was mainly worried about her brother Li Sanniang and his wife.

Moreover, He Lao Niang had gained knowledge in recent years and was good at using some idioms.

She kept saying "Ah" Xi Su Bing came from behind. mobile network The two even comforted Li Sanniang in private for fear that Li Sanniang would be anxious.

Li Sanniang smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry, but I see that the old lady is very anxious."

Although Li Sanniang said she was looking forward to having a child, she was indeed not "anxious".

I heard that my second sister-in-law also got pregnant several years after she got married, and my eldest aunt from the front mountain, Jang Jin, also got pregnant three years after they got married.

Anyway, the husband doesn’t know how to have children, and they are in good health as a couple, so they are still worried about not having children.

Li Sanniang, A Xi, and Su Bing are all classmates.

When the three of them meet, they have a lot of private conversations.

Li Sanniang was able to let go, but the eldest sister of the Li family was a little anxious.

Li Sanniang also asked Su Bing, "I also tried to persuade the eldest sister, but it's probably of no use.

If you have time, please untie the eldest sister.

We are all newlyweds, and you are so tactful."

Of course there are those who are earlier and those who are later.”

Su Bing said, "It's the first year since we got married, so there's no reason why it's too late.

Maybe my second sister-in-law is a little anxious because she thinks my second brother is a little older."

Axi said, "My mother said it's too early for people to get married now.

She used to say that we should only get married after we are at least twenty."

Su Bing and Li Sanniang both said, "Don't say after twenty, even at twenty, it's not easy to get married now."

"Isn't that right?"

Ah Xi said, "My mother sometimes has strange thoughts."

Li Sanniang said, "If everyone thinks like the mountain chief now, my grandmother doesn't have to worry."

Li Sanniang is worried about the concubine when she thinks about the second wife of the Li family.

Having such an unmarried sister in the family, even if she is a concubine, is not good for the family's reputation.

Su Bing and A Xi both knew that Li Erniang had not yet promised to marry, but they didn't know that the Li family was so anxious.

Axi thought for a while and said, "That's not true.

The second girl is the same age as the eldest sister, but her birthday is slightly younger.

We were all busy at the time, so I forgot about her."

Su Bing asked Li Sanniang, "I just don't know what your family means.

Otherwise, if you have a suitable person, you can help me find out a few things."

Su Bing was kind-hearted and said, "This is a common saying, but we girls "It doesn't matter if you delay your marriage a few years, but the marriage must be decided early."

Axi also said, "Yes, now that the marriage has been decided, I feel confident in my heart.

Otherwise, like when we went out before, all the ladies and grandmothers would not inquire about the marriage when they met.

If I could still pretend to be shy when I was a child, Now that I’m older, I feel anxious when others ask me.”

Li Sanniang was a quick-tongued person and said, "Grandma just wanted to settle her marriage, so she didn't go to Jinzhong with my grandfather to take up the post.

My mother was also worried about it in the imperial capital."

Li Sanniang peeled a grape and ate it, sighing, " It's not that I'm talking nonsense.

Although my father's official position is not high, he is also a serious prefect, and my grandfather is also a governor of the same place. .

Although my family is not as prominent as other families, it is impossible to say that it is impossible to even arrange a marriage for my daughter.

This year, my eldest sister and I got married together.

It was a happy event in the family.

Because her marriage was not possible, we went back to my parents' home to visit my grandmother and mother. , I see that both elders are not very happy.

If I don’t talk to you, I will really choke to death.”

Li Sanniang said about this concubine, "She was very good-looking because of her good looks.

When she was in Beichang Mansion, her grandmother helped her visit several houses, but she was not happy.

Her grandparents would ask questions about marriage matters.

When we asked what we wanted, we saw that she didn't want to, so we had no choice but to give up.

Now that we have come to the Imperial Capital, there are many prominent families in the Imperial Capital, but how can it be like that first-class noble family?

My eldest sister and I were both married to scholars.

My mother-in-law was also admitted in the imperial examination, and my grandparents were willing to find a scholarly family.

I don’t know what to say about the son of a man who has achieved fame, but I don’t think he can make progress.

I’m afraid even the emperor might think he has some shortcomings.”

Li Sanniang, who was always cheerful, talked to the two of them, "I'm only telling you, you can't keep it from me."

Su Bing and A Xi said, "You don't know that we are the most tight-lipped."

Then they said, "It's the second girl's temperament, which makes people anxious."

"Who says it's not?"

Li Sanniang became worried when she mentioned the second sister in the family.

Li Sanniang expressed her depression and felt much calmer.

She suddenly felt comfortable and ate most of the green grapes on the plate in one go.

Su Bing's mouth felt sour when she looked at it, and asked Li Sanniang, "Have you had it?

How come you can eat sourness so much?"

Li Sanniang said, "No, I don't think so.

I like to eat sour food by nature.

If these grapes are overripe, I won't like them anymore."

She pushed the fruit plate and advised the two of them, "This is for you." , eat more sour food, and I will give birth to a fat boy tomorrow.”

Su Bing and A Xi laughed hard at Li Sanniang's words.

Su Bing and A Xi, both of whom were pregnant, did not like eating sour foods.

In the end, Li Sanniang ate all the green grapes alone.

Su Bing, always attentive, quietly said to her mother-in-law, "I think Sanniang may be pregnant.

She used to like sour food, but she doesn't like it this much."

He Zijin said, "That's true."

He Zijin thought that the old lady was worried about the belly of his third grandson's daughter-in-law, so he ordered Doctor Dou to come and examine Li Sanniang.

Then, Li Sanniang, who claimed to know it well, Was diagnosed as pregnant.

Li Sanniang herself didn't believe it and said, "How is it possible?

I've been counting."

He Zijin said, "Forget it.

I was very bad at arithmetic when I was in school.

You must have made a mistake."

Li Sanniang said, "I wrote it down in the notebook."

She took a look at the notebook and found that she had remembered it correctly, but she had remembered it wrong.

It made everyone laugh so hard.

Mrs.

He was so happy that her third granddaughter-in-law was finally expecting to be pregnant.

At noon, the old lady paid for the fine banquet at Taiping Residence, and Dr.

Dou, who diagnosed the Ximai pulse, also received two big red envelopes.

Doctor Dou smiled and said, "There are many happy events in my family this year, so I'll say congratulations to the old lady first."

Mrs.

He insisted on keeping Dr.

Dou at home for dinner.

Dr.

Dou stayed because she had known the He family for many years.

He Zijin also called Aye who stayed at home to study, and together they had a feast ordered by the old lady's private money.

For young couples, as long as both parties are in good health, pregnancy will happen sooner or later.

Li Sanniang was diagnosed with pregnancy not many days ago, and Mrs.

Li was also diagnosed with pregnancy at her husband's house.

Moreover, the month was slightly earlier than that of Li Sanniang, which was similar to Su Bing's time.

It was because Mrs.

Li's pregnancy appearance was somewhat similar to that of A Xi, and there were no obvious pregnancy reactions.

In addition, Mrs.

Li was a safe person, and she was very sure that she called for a doctor.

She was diagnosed with pregnancy, and the Su family was naturally happy.

Even Mrs.

Li and Mrs.

Li were overjoyed when they found out that their granddaughters and daughters were pregnant.

They prepared a lot of good things and went to visit the children at their in-laws' home.

There is another happy event in the Li family.

This matter was discussed by Li Sanniang and her two best friends.

Li Sanniang said, "What a coincidence.

Grandma was about to get up and go to Jinzhong.

I heard that my uncle was going back to the imperial capital to report on his duties.

Grandma must have Leave a little more time to meet my uncle when he comes to the imperial capital."

Axi was still thinking about who the uncle Li Sanniang was talking about, but Su Bing, who came from a wealthy family, already knew it and said, "Oh, I have heard my father say before that Mr.

Ouyang is the closed door of Mr.

Beiling, the late Wen Zhengong." disciple."

A Xi realized what she was doing.

Her mother had told her about some of the Li family's personnel relationships.

Governor Li said that she was from a poor family, but Mrs.

Li was from the Ouyang family, a wealthy family in Lu.

The most prominent figure in the Ouyang family now is Mrs.

Li's younger brother Ouyang Jing.

Lord Ouyang is in charge of Jiangnan port affairs and is now a senior official of the third rank.

I heard that when I was young, I did not take part in the imperial examination due to poor health.

Later, I became a disciple of Mr.

Beiling in the imperial capital.

This Mr.

Beiling was originally an old minister of the previous dynasty.

After the death of the previous dynasty, Mr.

Beiling did not serve as an official again.

Later, he was invited by the court to preside over the construction of the library.

It can be said that he was a great Confucian who was famous all over the world.

To name just two of Mr.

Beiling's disciples, one is Mr.

Ouyang, the other is Li Jiujiang, the current Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and Mr.

Xiao Tang, the general manager of the Department of Internal Affairs who has good relations with the Jiang family.

Mr.

Ling's disciples and grandchildren.

Because Mr.

Beiling had a noble character and did not serve two dynasties, Beiling lectured for thirty years and became a literary giant.

After his death, the court gave him the posthumous title of Duke Wen Zhen.

Ouyang Mirror Master's sect is extremely extraordinary, and this Master Ouyang is also very lucky to marry the eldest princess Shouyi.

For example, why didn't Mrs.

Li give Mrs.

Liu face when she was in Beichang Mansion?

It stands to reason that the Liu family in the magistrate's office was a branch of the Liu family, but the Liu family was also a wealthy family in the imperial capital.

The future queen will be the granddaughter of Jingnan Gong Liu Fufeng.

The reason Mrs.

Li didn't take Mrs.

Li seriously back then was because her mother's family was prominent and her younger brother was capable.

The two siblings are separated from each other and have not seen each other for many years.

Now that they have the opportunity to meet in the imperial capital, Mrs.

Li naturally wants to stay longer and wait to meet her brother.

Even Li Sanniang was very proud when she talked about her great-uncle.

Li Sanniang was very happy to see that both Su Bing and A Xi knew about their great-uncle, and said, "I haven't seen my grandfather so happy in many years.

I am young and I only heard my grandparents mention this great-uncle.

A very handsome man.”

Axi said, "I also heard what my mother said, saying that Master Ouyang not only had a good life, but also had great articles.

My father even asked my brother to read the articles written by Master Ouyang back then."

Li Sanniang said, "My grandfather also said that my uncle's writing skills were extraordinary, but I heard that my uncle was not in good health when he was young, so he was unable to take part in the imperial examination."

Su Bing said, "Even if Master Ouyang did not take part in the imperial examination, who would dare to say that he is uneducated?

Even a figure like Wen Zhengong has to accept Master Ouyang as his disciple, which shows how talented Ouyang is."

Li Sanniang smiled and said, "Isn't that right?

People say that my nephew is like my uncle.

My grandfather has always felt sorry for him, saying why my father and uncle don't look like my uncle."

Su Bing and A Xi couldn't help laughing.

Axi treated the matter of Prince Consort Ouyang and Princess Shouyi returning to the imperial capital as gossip and told it to her mother.

Her mother, well, actually already knew about it from Su Bing.

Moreover, when her mother went into the palace to teach the eldest princess and Princess Jiachun, she met the eldest princess who had returned from a long journey.

The eldest princess Shouyi has been living in the south of the Yangtze River with her consort.

This time when she returned to the imperial capital, the Empress Dowager looked very graceful.

The eldest princess Shouyi also had to carry out some long-lost social activities.

Due to her status as the eldest princess Shouyi, the Jiang and He families had no chance to attend her banquet.

However, He Zijin took his eldest daughter-in-law and daughter to Princess Yi'an's mansion to have a birthday banquet for Princess Yi'an.

The fact that the Jiang family was able to go was said to be related to the old times.

Xie Bai, the consort of Yi'an, was sent as an envoy to Beiliang.

Consort Xie has now become an official, and he is the second uncle of the Empress Dowager.

Therefore, even though he has become an official, no one in the imperial capital dares to look down on Consort Xie.

Prince Consort Xie was an open-minded man who still remembered old friendships, so A-Nian had some interactions with Prince Consort Xie after arriving in the imperial capital, so this time he was lucky enough to be invited to pay his birthday.

He Zijin took his daughter-in-law with him and asked his children to go out and learn more.

As the eldest princess Shouyi returned to the court, another eldest princess returned to the imperial capital before the Empress Dowager's Thousand Autumn Festival.

She was the eldest princess Duanning, the empress dowager's daughter and today's aunt.

The eldest Princess Duanning was not the daughter of the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager did not have any biological children.

Because she liked girls by nature, she held the eldest Princess Duanning by her side and raised her shortly after she was born.

It can be said that the mother-daughter relationship is extremely strong.

It's intimacy.

The eldest princess Duanning came back to celebrate the birthday of the Queen Mother.

Last year was the year of the death of the late emperor, so the Queen Mother was not in the mood to celebrate the Qianqiu Festival.

This year is the new emperor's new year, and the anniversary of Emperor Kuang has passed.

The Queen Mother The Qianqiu Festival must be held in a big way.

Compared with the prominence of the royal family, the Jiang family was just a humble family.

He Zijin often visited the palace and got a glimpse of it, and he really admired the empress dowager in Ci'en Palace.

For example, the eldest princess Duanning was raised by the Empress Dowager.

It is human nature to be close to the Empress Dowager.

For example, the eldest princess Duanning was a little cold towards Empress Dowager Cao, and was not as close to Empress Dowager Su as she was.

However, Princess Shouyi, who was considered the Empress Dowager's sister-in-law, clearly expressed the same political stance as the Empress Dowager, and was polite to Empress Dowager Cao, while in contrast, she was cordial and courteous to Empress Dowager Su.

When He Zijin returned home, he told A Nian privately, "The Empress Dowager is very popular in the clan."

Anian said, "Of the princes-in-law, the oldest one is the prince-in-law of the eldest princess Wenkang, Lao Yonganhou.

This old prince has given up his official position and given up the title.

He has four sons.

The eldest son is the minister of the Ministry of official affairs, and the second son is the official minister.

The title of Marquis is Princess Shang Changtai, who is currently the commander of the Imperial Guard.

The third son was granted the title of Marquis Pingyuan due to his merit and is stationed in Nan'an Prefecture.

Next is Princess Yi'an.

Princess Yi'an was originally from the royal family and was granted the title of princess.

The consort is from the Empress Dowager's natal family.

Although she has become an official, this consort was born in Tanhua and has been serving in real positions.

Polished, a high-ranking official, and became the prime minister.

This prince-in-law has gone through the process of becoming the Grand Duke of Changtai.

The master is now the Marquis of Yong'an.

Later, Ouyang Jing, the consort of the eldest princess of Shouyi, has been in charge of port affairs in Jiangnan.

There are two ports in Jiangnan, one is Min'an Port, which was built by Emperor Renzong himself, and the other is Jingjiang Port.

It was built by King Jingjiang in the past.

King Jingjiang rebelled and Emperor Renzong's military exploits were all attributed to the Battle of Jingjiang.

Rebellion came.

For example, Pingyuan Hou and Prince Consort Duanning were both generals under Emperor Renzong.

The other was Princess Shouyang's Prince Consort Tang, who also served in the Imperial Guard.

The eldest princess’s consort Wu, the eldest princess Yongfu, and the eldest princess Shouwan’s consort Xue’s consort, are all in vain.”

Ah Nian has been in the court for a long time, and he loves to think about it.

He probably thinks about these things a lot on weekdays.

Ah Nian whispered, "After I analyzed it like this, guess what?"

Sister Zijin didn't need to ask, Ah Nian said it himself. , "The princesses and consorts who are on good terms with the Queen Mother basically have real power.

Those who have a mediocre relationship with the Queen Mother have a false position."

He Zijin said, "It's hard to say this.

How can Princess Shouwan be so reasonable?"

"Yes.

If you only rely on selfish interests to promote those you are close to and alienate those who are not close, it is not terrible.

Everyone has selfish motives.

If you follow the rules and laws in everything and are selfless, it is not terrible.

Such a person can be a saint.

Yes, be the one in power "It's too difficult.

The most terrifying thing is the Empress Dowager.

The people she relies on are all morally sound people.

The Empress Dowager is a person of great integrity."

A Nian suddenly said, " Sister, have you ever seen the Liu family girl when you went out?"

"That Miss Liu who wants to be the Queen" "right."

"No, Mrs.

Liu of the Liu family passed away last year, and everyone in the Liu family is observing filial piety.

Although Miss Liu is the great-great-granddaughter, the period of filial piety has passed.

However, I heard that Liu Shangshu was very filial to his grandmother, and all of them are at Mrs.

Liu's grave.

They lived in a hut, and the Liu family rarely went out."

He Zijin asked, "Why do you want to ask about this?"

"It's just asking around."

Anian said, "This imperial capital is very turbulent.

Although our family has nothing to do with these things, it is interesting to watch sometimes."

When He Zijin thought of something, he burst into laughter and said with a smile, "Don't tell me, sometimes it's really interesting.

Princess Duan Ning is a very powerful person.

There is something that you will definitely find interesting after hearing it."

"What's up" "It was also a coincidence that when I entered the palace that day, I happened to catch up with the eldest princess Duan Ning in Ci'en Palace.

Princess Duan Ning mentioned that the eldest princess and Princess Jiachun were getting older and it was inappropriate to always live in Ci'en Palace.

It's time to find another palace for them."

He Zijin.

Said, "The rules in the palace are similar to those of us folk.

When the princess and prince were young, they lived with their elders so that they could take care of them.

When they grow up and become sensible, the princes will have to move out of the harem, and the princess will have her own palace. ” Anian nodded, "What Princess Duanning said makes sense."

"It's reasonable.

Let's talk about arranging palaces for the eldest princess and Princess Jiachun.

The eldest princess Duanning mentioned Yongchang Palace and Chunyi Palace.

The eldest princess and Princess Jiachun both resigned. , saying that the eldest princess Duanning is an aunt, and she only lives in Xining Palace in the palace, and the two of them dare not live in Yongchang Palace or Chunyi Palace. " "It seems that Yongchang Palace and Chunyi Palace are better than Xining Palace."

"Yes, I think so too."

He Zijin said, "I heard that the eldest princess Duanning lived in Xining Palace before she left the palace.

This eldest princess was so loved by the Empress Dowager that even if she left the palace to get married, The Empress Dowager has also ordered people to clean the Xining Palace from time to time, leaving the eldest princess Duanning to return to the palace to stay for a while.

Even this time, the eldest princess did not stay in the princess mansion, but stayed in the Xining Palace. " One can imagine how much the eldest princess is doted on by the Queen Mother.

He Zijin said, "When I heard this, I thought the eldest princess was talking about the palace of the eldest princess and the princess.

Who knew, the eldest princess said next, you are all good children who know etiquette and rules. , It's good to know that you can't go beyond your elders.

You didn't see the expression on Queen Mother Cao's face at that time.

Princess Dachang turned to talk about something else, as if she just mentioned it casually. " Anian's lips curled up, "None of the princesses and eldest princesses in the royal family are simple."
