The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 627 stalemate
In Zhen Guogong's mansion, Xu Wanning also received a letter from the front line.

Holding the family letter, Xu Wanning learned that his son had made great achievements on the front line. He was so excited that tears filled his eyes. After reading the letter, he hurriedly handed it to his daughter-in-law Dong Qing, and said, "Look, this Kun My brother is really promising."

Dong Qing took the letter and unfolded it. In the letter, her husband talked about the war the most, and also mentioned family matters, but to her, it was just a greeting.

Dong Qing couldn't describe the feeling in her heart, she finished reading the letter, and handed it to her mother-in-law again, with a gentle smile on her face, she replied: "My husband is so successful, it is all thanks to my mother-in-law's teaching."

Xu Wanning is a careless person, she didn't see what her daughter-in-law was thinking, she just replied with a smile: "Brother Kun has been motivated since he was a child, his father and I really put a lot of thought into cultivating him." , She took her daughter-in-law's hand and said lovingly: "But in the future, Brother Kun will depend on you for help. You are a smart and capable child. Brother Kun has you, so I don't know how relieved I am."

Dong Qing smiled awkwardly, and replied: "My daughter-in-law will do her best."

"He went off to war less than a year after you got married." As she spoke, Xu Wanning sighed, patted her daughter-in-law's hand and said, "When Brother Kun comes back this time, you two will stay together every day and have a baby as soon as possible. It’s more complete.”

When she returned to her own room, Dong Qing felt mixed feelings in her heart.

The servant girl handed over hot tea and persuaded: "Young Madam, Da Madam is right, if you give birth to an heir of the Li family as soon as possible, your position as the eldest grandson and daughter-in-law will be even more unshakable."

Dong Qing smiled lightly, and replied: "There is nothing unshakable in this world." He took a sip of the hot tea in his hand, and murmured: "Especially human feelings are unpredictable, and they can be said to change." Change."

The servant knew that the young couple was still angry, so she persuaded softly: "Your servant can see that the eldest son loves the young lady very much, so why should the young lady be so stubborn? You should write a letter to the eldest son anyway." Letter from home, I dare to say that the eldest son will change his mind as soon as he receives your letter."

Dong Qing raised her eyes to look at the servant book, and said with a sneer, "If he would trust me, he wouldn't treat me like this. If he didn't believe me, I would just bow down and ask for favors. What's the point?"

The secretary wanted to persuade her again, but Dong Qing waved her hand to signal her to shut up, and only ordered: "Go and prepare pen and ink, I have to practice calligraphy."

Although my girl is talented, she is just too noble and stubborn, the servant shook her head helplessly, and then went to prepare pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

When the maidservant had prepared her pen and ink, Dong Qing waved her hand and left. She sat in front of the desk and practiced with her pen. But today she was in a very restless mood. After she wrote two words, she put down her hand in frustration. wolf hair.

Dong Qing stood up and walked to the window. It was late autumn, and the leaves on the trees had lost their green color. The autumn wind blew, and fallen leaves piled up all over the courtyard.

It is very desolate to see.

Dong Qing didn't know how to deal with her relationship with Li Kun. She had been conquered by Li Kun's tenderness and fell deeply in love with him. Therefore, she could not face her husband's suspicion and neglect.

Before Li Kun went out that day, after he said that to her, although Dong Qing's face was calm, she cried all night after returning.

Could it be that in the eyes of her husband, she was such an unbearable person?

The more you care about it, the more you can't stand your own imperfection in the eyes of the other party.

The Qi army has already approached the city of Gaoshan, and this battle will not last long. In less than a month, the husband will return with the army in triumph.

After he came back, how would she face him.

If he still treats her coldly like this, with her temperament, she will definitely not be willing to bow down to him to beg for favor.

Dong Qing felt as if her heart was tightly blocked, and she felt as if she was about to suffocate.

In the Jiaofang Hall, Jing Shu had just had dinner with a few girls, and Prince Heping came over to greet her. Jing Shu had an angry talk with the two brothers, and by the time they were sent away, it was already Yueshang Liushao. Son.

Ziyun took care of Jingshu after taking a bath, and while untangling his hair, he asked: "The prince came here today, why didn't the empress ask him what he thinks?"

Jingshu replied: "You don't even need to ask, since I've paid attention, I've already seen what he's thinking."

The crown prince is the most calm and rarely shows his emotions, so Jing Shu didn't notice the difference between his son and sister Xue before.

Seeing that Ziyun was puzzled, Jing Shu looked at Ziyun through the mirror, and explained: "You took those children out today, didn't you meet Prince Heping?"

"I saw it all."

A person can control his emotions and hide his preferences, but he cannot control his eyes.

When you look at the person you like, there will be stars in your eyes.

Ziyun asked: "Then what is your plan?"

Mentioning this, Jingshu sighed slightly, and replied: "Although the crown prince has intentions, I can see that sister Xue has no intentions, hey! Besides, my cousin and sister-in-law don't want my daughter to enter the palace."

"This matter is difficult."

Mothers hope that their children will have their wishes fulfilled, but even if they belong to an imperial family, there is no reason to force others to do so.

Ziyun also sighed, and replied: "The prince's temperament is most like His Majesty, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to change his mind."

Jing Shu naturally also understood his son's temper, he said annoyed: "Your Majesty is coming back soon, I will discuss this matter with him after His Majesty returns."

In Zhen Guogong's mansion, Xu Wanning was also worried about her son's marriage.

The married daughter, Sister Zhuang, heard that her brother had sent a family letter, so she returned to her natal home. Xu Wanning proudly told her daughter Xu Xu about the situation of the eldest son's achievements in the war. The mother and daughter enjoyed each other for a while, and then mentioned Li Ping's marriage is coming.

The second son is naughty, far less excellent than the eldest son, but now it is time to discuss marriage. When it comes to the second son, Xu Wanning has completely lost the excitement of mentioning the eldest son just now. She sighed from time to time and complained to her daughter. "A few days ago, a matchmaker came up to marry your younger brother, but who are they? They are either the daughters of the house, or the concubine daughters raised under the aunt's knees, or the concubine daughters of some concubine, oops! There's really no one like that."

Among the rich and powerful families, the most important thing is the birth, and the girls who are serious and born are the most fragrant.

Thinking back to the meeting when the eldest son announced their kiss, the matchmaker stepped through the threshold, talking about the most outstanding noble daughter in Beijing. At that time, Xu Wanning did not know how proud she was. Comparing the current situation, she had to make people feel ashamed because of the huge gap. feel oppressed.

Sister Zhuang comforted her mother and said: "How can everyone be as good as the elder brother? The brothers on the left and right are still young. When it comes to marriage, just pay attention slowly."

Xu Wanning sighed and said, "I wasn't in a hurry at that time with your eldest brother. Your younger brother is famous for being naughty. I was worried that he wouldn't be willing to marry a good girl to him. Oh! It's really worrying."

"Who made mother worry again!"

Li Ping arrived before he was heard. He entered the room and sat down on the chair. He casually grabbed the nuts on the table and threw them in his mouth. He looked at his mother and sister with a playful smile: "Are you speaking ill of me behind my back again?"

Xu Wanning couldn't understand his son's stubborn appearance the most. Without saying a word, he went up to hit someone, but before he slapped someone, Brother Ping turned over neatly, held the seat with one hand, and jumped briskly. Going behind the chair, he yelled, "Mother, why do you beat me when you see me? I'm your own son. If it breaks, who will take care of you?"
