0355 Joy and Forgetfulness
When Princess Xingnan returned to Yanshan Manor, the entire Xingtai was already immersed in a jubilant atmosphere. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
At that time, the people's feelings were strong, and they were unrestrained in joy or sorrow, especially the news of the reconquest of Gyeonggi this time was far more significant than the victory of the previous great cause! There is no shortage of people on the streets who are crying with joy and even singing and dancing!
Infected by such an atmosphere, Princess Xingnan's delicate little face was already red with excitement, as if she was drinking, and she almost couldn't help but rush out of the car to join in the celebration. Fortunately, there was also a little lady Cui Ling in the car, and she held the princess's arm tightly so that she would not get too carried away.
"Ah Ling Niang, what are these people happy about on the street?"
Looking at Princess Xingnan's overjoyed face but knowingly asked, the little lady of the Cui family couldn't help but sigh with emotion, this princess was already happy and didn't know how to express it. However, she also empathizes with this joy, since the Liyang Rebellion, the two big victories so far have been achieved by their own lords, and now they have directly recovered Gyeonggi Jiankang. How can such an astonishing feat not make people rejoice!
"Princess, Lord Lang has recovered Jiankang and rescued His Majesty the Emperor, they are celebrating their great achievements!"
Although Cui Ling was still holding her shoulders down, the princess couldn't help but wave her arms. Compared with the simple joy of others, the pride and relief in the princess's heart rose to the extreme, and in addition to the ecstasy, tears gradually welled up in her eyes, and her tone became choked: "He is such a person, always, always able to do things that others dare not dream of!" But, but Ah Ling Niang, what a fierce traitor the Liyang Army is, how many kings and teachers will be defeated against them! ”
"Fu Lang, what kind of danger did he have to risk and what kind of vicious battle did he have to go through to succeed? He knew that I had always felt guilty for abandoning Aliu, and promised me to rescue the emperor...... The king is the king of the world, and I really shouldn't ......."
Speaking of this, Princess Xingnan was already choked up and couldn't speak. Originally, she had no concept of military affairs, and what she had seen earlier was more of a scene of hugging back and forth, but as she went through the events and listened to the widows of those families in the garden talk about old things, she gradually had a specific understanding of the cruelty of war.
It is true that the meritorious deeds are beautiful, but what kind of scenery you want to enjoy, what kind of sinister tempering you have to endure. In addition to joy and pride, when I think of what a great risk my husband has taken, I have a sense of chagrin that I can't share.
"Princess, this is a great joy! People have big talents and small talents, and things have big and small things. A big thing that no one can do, it is a big thing that people like Lord Lang can't do! Lord Lang won successive battles, created peace for the people of the world, and won glory for relatives and friends......"
Feeling the princess's complicated mood, Cui Ling comforted softly.
When the princess heard this, she burst into tears and laughed: "I am very happy, but I am not angry at all. My husband has always had great talents, and he has not cultivated them recently. Those princes and important ministers in Taicheng have corrupted the world and can't clean it up, so they can only use it when they think of my husband! They really have to have the eye to know the talents and employ people appropriately, why not let my husband and wife fight hard to clean up the situation now! ”
"Princess, Lord Lang is only fifteen or sixteen years old......"
Cui Ling's mother originally meant that at the age of her own master, even if people knew that she was talented, it was not easy to show it, and there must be a process.
However, Princess Xingnan's expression became more and more angry when she heard this: "Yes, the traitors are all the traitors, the uncle is clumsy in dealing with the catastrophe caused by the Spring and Autumn Period, and my husband is not as weak as the crown, but he can win the battle!" The well-being of all the people and the safety of the country, how can we hope for one or two mediocre people to grow up in a few years. Whoever looks down on others because of his shallow age is the real blind eye! ”
Saying this, the princess's car has already entered the villa, and there are already two women who are waiting with the queen mother on the side of the road, and when they see the princess's car coming, they quickly stepped forward and said with a smile on their faces: "Her Majesty the queen mother has ordered the concubine to wait here for Her Royal Highness the eldest princess for a long time, please ask the eldest princess to go and see her." ”
Princess Xingnan was about to get out of the car after hearing this, and the two women hurriedly stepped forward to help the princess back to the car, and their smiles were much more eager than before: "The summer is hot, Your Highness's noble body still has to sit in the car, don't work your body." ”
With that, several people turned around and drove to the palace where the Queen Mother temporarily lived.
At this time, the team led by Lu Ye had not yet come to Xingtai, but the news of the good news had already spread. When Princess Xingnan walked to the front of the palace, she saw that the palace was almost full of women and dependents of all families, waiting for the queen mother to receive her. In the middle of summer in June, although there is no lack of pavilions and shade in front of the temple, there are still a large number of women standing under the scorching sun to bear the shade because there are too many people who come to visit.
For these women, who are accustomed to enjoyment and pampering, they are exposed to the scorching sun, their makeup is washed away by sweat, and their originally fair faces are already red, which can be described as unbearable torture. But at this time, no one dared to complain, just waiting for the Queen Mother's reception.
At this time, Princess Xingnan's car came, and these women also said which family was the order of the woman to come, and when they saw the car driving directly into the crowd, this made their anxiety in their hearts have a place to vent their anger, although they did not directly step forward to scold, but they also saw the maids around them come forward to jam the car, so that the people in the car could feel the torture they were subjected to as soon as possible.
The situation was a little chaotic for a while, and the two women who were in charge of guiding the way were caught off guard, and too many people crowded up, and the car was faintly swaying. Cui Ling's little lady, who was accompanying the princess, was quick to see her eyes, and she helped the princess who was about to fall, and then came out and said, "The eldest princess meets Her Majesty the Queen Mother, and she doesn't retreat quickly!" ”
As soon as these words were shouted, it was like the strictest military order, and in just a few breaths, the crowd congested in front of the car suddenly disappeared, and a road to the front of the temple had appeared!
When Princess Xingnan got out of the car, the slightly silent crowd became commotion again, and people kept crowding to the front to say hello to the princess. But no matter how crowded it is, there seems to be an invisible boundary on this road, and no one dares to break through it. Princess Xingnan kept signaling to the people on both sides with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she already had a bit of graceful posture, but when she fell on her still a little green face, it always made people play.
When Princess Xingnan walked into the palace, the queen mother, who was originally sitting in the hall, was already smiling, got up and quickly picked up her daughter's wrist, and smiled at several women in the palace while walking back: "This lady in my family is really a blessed person, no need to worry." Her husband-in-law has made great contributions, but she is still ignorant, and someone has already reported the good news! ”
When the other people in the palace heard this, they couldn't help but smile and echo the queen mother's words: "The number of lives should be predestined." Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess was originally a pair of beautiful people, and the sky was pitiful. Carefree and hard-working, this is the first-class life. The horses are full of talents and merits, and they are suitable for Her Royal Highness the Princess, and they get along with each other and do not humiliate each other! ”
Rao was used to hearing the praise of others, and the princess couldn't help laughing at this time. The Queen Mother pulled the princess directly to sit in front of the royal bed, her eyes full of soft and loving smiles, which the princess had not received before.
"I know that this girl in my family is blessed, but it's a pity, a pity...... Alas! ”
The queen mother held her little girl's wrist tightly, stared at it for a long time, her eyes were already red, and she turned to a serious tone and said: "My only regret is that there is a lack of parenting for this little girl, and she lacks a little gentleness, so she can't help but be ashamed of her relatives." Xingnan, you have to remember that the more in times of crisis, how people's hearts are and how they do things, how true their affection will be. My family is not an ordinary family, and it has less hardship than other people's families, and it has less insight into true feelings. But what Wei Zhou did in this turmoil really makes me remember. I have such a loyal and righteous son-in-law in my family, it's really my ......"
"Queen Mother, although my husband has made meritorious contributions, it is also because the court is willing to show it."
Although she was pleased with the Queen Mother's praise for her husband, after all, there were outsiders present at the moment, and the princess faintly felt that this kind of private talk was really not suitable to say in front of people.
When the Empress Dowager heard this, she couldn't help but sigh and said: "The prominent user of the imperial court is not Wei Zhou, but only Wei Zhou can achieve such a great achievement, which shows ......"
The princess grabbed the queen mother's wrist with her backhand and turned her gaze frequently to sign, and the queen mother gradually realized that there was something wrong with saying this. Recently, she has also paid attention and restrained in her speech, but today she is really happy and a little forgetful, the matter that has plagued her for a long time has been suddenly resolved, and the joy in her heart can be imagined, and she just wants to share this gratitude with the people closest to her, and she forgets that there are outsiders present.
When she reacted, the queen mother changed the topic with some embarrassment, and discussed with these women how to celebrate the great achievement, and agreed to lead the women who are now near the stage to pray for the blessings and disasters of the front-line kings.
Fortunately, this embarrassment did not last long, and after a while, the Chinese scholar Lang Yuyi was outside to see him, and the queen mother sent the wives away and told them to tell the other people about the matter they had just discussed.
The four brothers of the Yu family came to see the queen mother together this time, and just after sitting down, Princess Xingnan asked impatiently: "Uncle, is my husband injured?" Was the battle tragic when recovering Gyeonggi? ”
The Queen Mother's face also showed a little anxiety: "Yes, second brother, the Liyang rebels have always been vicious, Wei Zhou's victory this time must not be easy, right?" What about the Emperor now? Did the rebels harm the emperor? When will I see the Emperor? ”
When Yu Yi heard these questions, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. In addition to seeing the official good news sent by Lu Ye and them, there was also a private message sent by Shen Zhezi describing the battle in detail, but he was still a little confused. Was the battle tragic? It doesn't seem to be very tragic, but the degree of danger is terrifying, even if there are only a few hundred people plus Neiying, there are only a few hundred people, if there is a slight mistake in this link, it is possible to wipe out the whole army! This is simply a big gamble with your life, a victory!
When listening to Yu Yi finish talking about the battle, the Queen Mother couldn't help but gasp, even if she didn't know military affairs, but the simple quantitative comparison was still clear. Although I had thought that this battle would not be easy, I still didn't expect it to be so dangerous!
And Princess Xingnan was already teary-eyed, just listening to it once, the cold sweat pouring out of her body had almost wet her clothes, you can imagine how much risk Shen Zhezi took in it!
"Wei Zhou is really, very human can do extraordinary things this time! I really can't think of such a military, but Wei Zhou actually did it! Not to mention this feat, the courage of Wei Zhou alone is beyond the reach of others! ”
Yu Tiao said with emotion in the banquet, among the brothers, he and Shen Zhezi have worked together for the longest time, and they are the closest, I thought that he had a thorough understanding of Shen Zhezi, but this incident still made him feel impressed again, this young man's ability to surprise people is simply talented, and there seems to be no limit!
"The third brother said this, but I didn't dare to agree!"
Yu Bing suddenly spoke, and compared to the surprise on the faces of the others, his expression was a little heavy.
