Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 432 Goodbye Princess Zhongshun
Uncle Rong has returned to Beijing, before the winter of this year.

Go back to the palace first and meet Emperor Xiande, save the problems between the four princesses and the son-in-law Duoxi, and talk about the affairs of Mobei Guoshi and Mobei Prince, Mobei Four Leagues and Kulun Minister of Affairs, etc.

"I heard that you also went to the trading city?" Emperor Xian De looked quite haggard, and his spirit was very different from that before Brother Rong left Beijing.

"Returning to Your Majesty, I did go to the trading city and stayed there for two months. I saw a lot of rare and rare things, and I also saw the wolfish ambition of the northern Raksha people." Brother Rong replied.

In fact, he still thought in his heart that no matter what, the Dayan royal family should be wary of the Eros people in the north.

Emperor Xiande didn't care much about this, and asked indifferently: "How can you see it?"

"The country of Eros has established several military governor's houses in the Xianbelia region. The Yakutsk military governor's house in the northeast has occupied a lot of our Dayan territory, and further south can endanger our Dayan Montenegro area. Now Eros is even more In the north of Mobei, not far from Maimai City, Erkou City (Irkutsk) will be expanded, which is the fortress that leads southward to Mobei from Maimai City."

"General Heilongjiang inspects the city of Yasak every day, and that place can stop the warlord of Yakutsk." Emperor Xiande said confidently, but he didn't mention Mobei, obviously he didn't want to quarrel with Brother Rong on these matters. explain.

Brother Rong stopped talking when he saw this.Maybe it's only in his heart that he takes this matter seriously.

In his view, Erkou City (Irkutsk), Chita City, and Yasak City are a line, a line that is extremely critical between Dayan and Eros.Whoever controls these cities controls the initiative.

But the premise is to treat the Mobei region as the land of Dayan.

Now Erkou and Chita have been occupied by Eros, and Dayan can only guard Kulun and Aihui.

But Emperor Xiande didn't want to talk more about it with him, after asking about Mobei, he sent him out of the palace with a reward.

Uncle Rong stopped for a moment.

Emperor Xiande raised his eyebrows and said, "Is there anything else?"

"..."

Xian De suddenly realized, a trace of sadness flashed across his face.The voice was low and said: "You are back, you should also go to Zhongshun Prince's Mansion to take a look. After this winter, next year I will not take care of the Water Conservancy Camp and Tian Mansion for the time being. The West Camp outside Di'anmen has been folded and the place to build a virtuous temple is up to you. Supervise and supervise. The Xianliang Temple is headed by Prince Zhongshun, so it can't be shabby."

Shengkou said bluntly, Brother Rong couldn't refuse.

In fact, he would like to go on to manage the water conservancy farm.But Xianliang Temple is not bad.At least Prince Zhongshun was the first to enter the Xianliang Temple, no matter how you look at it, the prince is worthy of this sacrifice.

Moreover, Uncle Rong also knew that Prince Zhongshun would be No. 1 who deserved to enjoy the Taimiao and the Xianliang Temple.

Even at the beginning because of the construction of the shrine, Emperor Xiande had a quarrel with the officials of various ministries. Originally, the shrine was built for Prince Zhongshun alone, but later it was changed into the Xianliang Temple and Prince Zhongshun was headed.

At least the emperor was sincere to Prince Zhongshun.

Brother Rong took the decree and went out of the palace, Emperor Xiande looked at the empty study and said to himself: "I wish I could go on behalf of my thirteenth brother, even if I go with him together."

After all, there was a tense and low pressure in the palace, no matter whether the concubine, eunuch, maid, etc. did not dare to make the slightest mistake.It is extremely taboo to speak every day, for fear of offending the emperor's thoughts.

In addition, the same is true in the Changchun Xianguan in Chongning Garden where the prince and princess live.

Until today, the prince raised his brows slightly.Just because he heard that Brother Rong had returned from beyond the Great Wall, he hurriedly sent someone to ask if Brother Rong had come up with a cure for himself.

It is really His Royal Highness who has to be anxious.One and a half years have passed since the injury, and the wound there has healed.

However, there was no movement at all below.

It's just that I can't get up at all, and I've tried every conceivable method to no avail.

In the past year, His Royal Highness felt that the sky was always gloomy and gloomy, with no light at all.Even after learning that the First Prince was cut from his membership last year, he died of depression this year, and he was not at all happy.

This year, another prince in the palace has come of age.A person who seemed to pose no threat to him, a crazy, arrogant and self-willed good brother, could also make the third master nervous.

In the past, he never thought that this younger brother was a threat to him, because Xiaowu's mother and concubine had a very good relationship with Xiaosanye's mother and concubine, and they always got along as sisters.Even Xiao Wu listened to the words of the third master very much, but the third master was still nervous now.

Now there are only the two princes in the palace.

Choose one of the two, how would Emperor Xiande choose?neither knows.

Should he choose a crazy and willful fifth son, or choose a third son who cannot pass on the family line?
Although Xiao Wuye likes to visit brothels, he also likes to hold funerals for living people, and even fights with people because of trivial things.But in Xiao Sanye's heart, his inability to raise children is definitely more fatal than Xiao Wu's shortcomings.

Having no successor has become the heart disease of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Even sometimes in the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, I saw the daughter born to the princess, who was made the granddaughter of the princess early on, and the third master wished he could suddenly become a man.

Other families don't have the throne to inherit, but the Crown Prince's family really does.

As a result, the anger in my heart sometimes spilled on the princess.It's strange why the Crown Princess Li didn't give birth to a child with a handle.

"Your Highness, why don't you worry, now that Lord Rong of Ningguo Mansion has returned to Beijing, all troubles can be solved."

The third master looked at the woman and smiled. "I hope so."

But he said that Uncle Rong entered the palace directly before he returned to Ningguo Mansion, and now he is going to Zhongshun Prince's Mansion after leaving the palace.

Xiao Que'er and others who returned to Beijing with Uncle Rong went back to Ningguo Mansion first.

"Queer, grandma, please be safe." The little girl was still very reserved when facing Rong's grandma, Qin Shi. Grandma won't let him off easily.

"Are you back?" Grandma Rong's face was not very good-looking, not because of what happened back then, but because she thought it was Uncle Rong who came back, but she didn't expect it to be Que'er.

"Uncle first went to the palace to report back, Que'er... Que'er went home first to pass the news to grandma."

At this moment, the Buddhist mother of Shengjiao has no confidence in facing Grandma Rong.A pair of smart eyes secretly looked at Grandma Rong's complexion. Seeing her dark face, her heart sank to the bottom of the valley and she made plans to return to Heishan Village.

Xiao Que'er didn't want to go back to Heishan Village, where Uncle Rong couldn't be seen there, let alone serve him by his side.

She is not at all interested in being a concubine.

"What news?"

"Grandpa said he misses grandma, let grandma get ready... get ready... and come back home when master is back." Xiao Que'er whispered.

"what to prepare?"

"Just...just..." Xiao Que'er blushed and paused for a while, sneaking a look at the surrounding maids.He said in a low voice: "Grandpa asked grandma to prepare a big wooden bucket and hot water... Uncle has not been able to bathe comfortably outside the Great Wall for a long time..."

Speaking of this, Qin Keqing still doesn't understand.

Her pretty little face flushed red, and there was a burning feeling in her heart that she hadn't seen for a long time.Self-care said angrily: "When the uncle returns to the mansion, he should go to the ancestral hall to offer incense first, and then pay respects to the ancestors of the West mansion and the grandfather and wife in turn."

"The uncle also said that he wanted to invite grandma to join Grandma Feng..."

"Huh?" Grandma Rong's complexion changed, and her delicate face suddenly turned into a majestic expression, staring at Xiao Que'er.

It seemed that the little girl was going to be stripped alive in the next second.

After a long time, Grandma Rong Qin changed her color and refused to answer these words.Asked back: "Didn't you go to Heishan Village? The letters you have exchanged in the past few months have also mentioned it. Why did you suddenly come back from Mobei together with the uncle?"

Only then did Xiao Que'er vaguely tell the story of her coming from Heishan Village to Shenjing and then to Mobei.

Grandma Rong said: "A few days ago when Miss Qin from the Xue family came back, she mentioned you in the gossip, and said a lot of good things about you. You have worked hard to serve me in Mobei, and this time I will stay in my yard first when I come back. live."

Xiao Que'er's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly replied: "Thank you grandma, Que'er is still serving grandma like before."

Grandma Rong glanced at her lightly. "From now on, I will stay in this outhouse and sleep on the original bed. Go change your clothes and prepare to welcome the uncle back home."

The little bird was excited.

I went to the place where grandma and uncle put their clothes outside. There was a bed there, which was where these close servant girls slept.Although this corner is not too spacious, even with the curtain drawn, it cannot be seen from the outside.

However, it is the most comfortable space for Xiaoqueer.

Changing clothes inside, she looked like a pretty little maid again.I put on the original jewelry again, and dressed up carefully, as if returning to the past.

The things that belonged to her inside have not been tampered with, and all the jewelry and clothes that she left behind from her grandma and grandpa are not missing.

This made the little bird even happier.

She is happy.

There are a few people in this house who are melancholy.

Lin Daiyu was the first to feel melancholy. She was happy to hear that Uncle Xiaorong had returned to Beijing, but she got tangled up when she really waited for this day.

It’s okay not to see you, I only miss you.When they met, they were panicked.

"Look at what is wrong with me? Is the jacket on today suitable?"

Zicuckoo looked at it carefully, and went to find hairpins for Miss Lin to replace.

On the other hand, Xue Baochai, who was looking at her, couldn't help teasing and giggling, "What's the use of your disguise today? Brother Rong will go to the palace first, and it will take some time. Maybe he will go to see our mother, or It will take a long time to go to Prince Zhongshun's mansion to pay his respects."

Lin Daiyu paused, frowned and stared at her.

Xue Baochai didn't intend to let her go, and continued: "Even if he returns to the mansion, he must go to the ancestral hall to see the ancestors. He has to pay his respects to the lords and wives in turn, and the time will not be known by then. Even if we go back to the inner house, we should go to the Qin family, and we won't see each other today."

What Xue Baochai said is not wrong, the process of returning home cannot be missed.But there is one thing that Baochai didn't say.Baochai is now a resident of the East Mansion, and when Uncle Rong returns home, she has to go and welcome Brother Rong back to the mansion with Grandma Rong.But Lin Daiyu's status is embarrassing, how could she meet Brother Rong for no reason.

Xue Baochai frowned when she saw Mao'er, and joked with a smile: "It's still early, Mao'er just goes to the old ancestors in the west, and is afraid that he won't see Brother Rong? I can tell you, Qianer When I came over just now, I saw a grandma who had gone to the West Mansion earlier under the pretext of reconciliation."

This time it was even more difficult for Lin Daiyu. She wondered whether she should follow Baochai's advice and go to the old lady.

After listening to her, I felt a little uncomfortable; if I didn't go to the old lady's place, I would have a rare chance to see Brother Rong today.

hesitated.

It's not a person's hesitation, let alone a person's hesitation.

At the moment, there are many people sitting and standing in the room of Mrs. Jia Mu.Except for the maids in the old lady's room, such as mandarin ducks and amber, all the ladies of the Xifu are also there, such as the eldest wife Xing, the second wife Wang, and the eldest grandmother Li.

The young ones avoided suspicion early on, Yingchun, Tanchun, Xiangyun, the eldest daughter of the historian, and even Baoqin went to the Grand View Garden with them.

Not to mention Xu, who lives in Lian's second master's room.

However, there was one person among them, but she didn't know whether she should go or not. She was Xue Baochai's mother Xue Wang.

Ordinarily, as a relative of Jia's family, Xue Wang's mother is also Xue Baochai's mother. She is qualified to be here because of the relationship between Miss Bao and Brother Rong.

But my heart is extremely contradictory.

I want to see Brother Rong, but I dare not see Brother Rong.

Even when the old lady was talking to her, Xue Wangshi was absent-minded, saying nothing.

…………

Let's say that Uncle Rong went to Zhongshun Prince's Mansion, so he came here to meet the prince and the county king of the son of the Thirteenth Lord who were in mourning.

Not much gossip.

Then I went to pay my respects to Princess Zhongshun.

"My mother's day is sad." Looking at the haggard look of the princess, he had many words and many questions in his heart, and he couldn't say it for a while.

When the princess saw him, there was no sadness on her face.After all, the Thirteenth Lord passed away a few months ago, but now the empress is thinking about the descendants of the palace.

And the biological daughter of the concubine who is far away in Mobei.

Although Her Royal Highness did not stay with the empress for a long time, the relationship between mother and daughter is not bad at all.

"Is the princess doing well in Mobei?"

"Everything is fine. This year, the Princess Mansion reorganized the commercial and agricultural affairs in Mobei, and the people of Mobei love Her Highness the Princess very much. There is also the king of Beijing County in Mobei, and the cooperation between the government and the government has made Mobei a lot more peaceful. "

"I'm asking if Hui'er is doing well?"

"Hui...His Royal Highness is also excellent."

"You didn't bully her."

"..."

Obviously I was bullied by the fourth princess every time, how many times.Uncle Rong complained in his heart, but he was also shocked that the princess would ask such a direct question.Cautiously replied: "How dare Rong'er bully Her Highness the Princess, it's just that His Highness had some troubles with the Prince of Mobei. Before Rong'er left, the Prince of Mobei hadn't been summoned by the princess except for his wedding day."

The concubine twitched her eyebrows slightly. "What did the son-in-law do to annoy the princess?"

"My son was very drunk on his wedding day, and some accidents happened." Brother Rong replied cautiously, and then said: "Even so, the leader of the Four Leagues of Mobei and the national teacher are also sincerely convinced by the princess. Bei should seldom have things that make Her Royal Highness unhappy."

After listening to this, the concubine didn't stay any longer, and sent Brother Rong away directly.

Uncle Rong's heart agitated, wondering if Xiao Que'er brought the words to him?

On the way back home, a pair of eyes were shining with fiery light.
