Chapter 37 Sui Boying

July [-]rd is the [-]th birthday of Mrs. Zhen Guogong and his wife.Mrs. Li and the Second Young Madam prepared a lot of necessary things early on, and the whole family went to celebrate their birthday together.

Mrs. Ning is now "ill" and cannot "can" go out, but the Fourth Young Master rarely returns from the Imperial College and goes with her.

He is also a young talent. Although he is weaker than Song Qingyun and Yu Xingzhi, he has always been ranked third, but because he is the third, no one mentions it, so he is somewhat unknown.

He is very similar to Yu Xingxing.He is also a concubine, his biological mother died young, and he followed Li's family since he was a child, but he is much more open-minded than Yu Xingzhi, and his words and deeds are full of atmosphere, but... just like Ning Guogong and Ning Er Young Master, he is also unsmiling.

The father and son stood together coldly, and Ning Shuo became angry.Today he is wearing a light blue dress, embroidered with green bamboo, and the shoes underneath are also meanderingly dotted with bamboo forests dyed with silver thread, looking very rich.

Sheng Yanling went out the door and met everyone at the door, he was the first one to see.He was the tallest among them, and the only one who smiled lightly when he saw her.

Seeing this smile, she felt that the smile was like a spring breeze, so she also smiled at him.The fifth girl saw it and asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"

Sheng Yanling pointed to the little unicorn hanging from Ning Shuo's body, "Look, it's quite a match."

Li Shi also looked over, and said with a smile: "I made him wear it on purpose! You Qilin brought him good luck, Yanling, I want to thank you."

Sheng Yanling was embarrassed, "My aunt always thanked me for my guilty conscience."

Li Shi embraced her: "But you also have to thank your cousin, he chose the hairpin on your head. He has a good eye, and the ones he picked for Xiao Wu and Yun Niang are good-looking, so I'll ask him to give them to you too." I picked one, and it really looks good."

Today, Sheng Yanling is wearing the Baidiewu Taorui outfit, but the hairpin on her head is in the shape of a carved peony.Her appearance is inherently charming, the peach stamens are in bud, suppressing some of the glamour, but the peony reveals her dignity, which complements the charm, and it is always suitable to wear light makeup and heavy makeup.

After getting into the carriage, the fifth girl was in the carriage with Sheng Yanling. She whispered: "When I was a child, my third brother was sent to Qiushan Academy. My mother couldn't bear it, and brought him back several times, but my father insisted on sending him. When he came back, my third brother himself I don’t want to stay at home, but like to stay in the mountains. My mother said at the time that the third brother will be unfamiliar with the family in the future, so in order to let him get to know us more, she always drags him to choose things for us.”

Over time, it becomes a habit.She sighed, "The third elder brother is really nice now. I was really worried about him when he was silent before."

Sheng Yanling has never seen the appearance of the third cousin before, but she also admits that the third cousin is very good now.She said, "After people have experienced life and death, they suddenly become enlightened, and they will gradually live the way they want."

Miss Wu gave her a sideways look, "Usually when you say this, your husband's words follow. I've heard you talk about it for so long, sir, and I can probably guess that your husband must have seen through life and death, right?"

She excitedly said: "Tell me quickly, what is your husband's understanding of life and death?"

Sheng Yanling smiled shyly, but shook her head, and said sadly: "My husband said that he has never looked at life and death. In fact, he still has important things to do, but he can't do them, so he has to wait for death in Lingnan. Because you can't do it, you have obsessions in your heart, and you can't be indifferent to life and death."

She still remembered that when the husband said this, it was the spring day of the second year in Lingnan.She was sitting under the wall covered with ling Xiaohua, holding a bowl of hot porridge in her hand, and heard her husband say in a very regretful voice: "Now, I am just a piece of dead wood... All sentient beings in Jambudvipa, my heart beats Thoughts are nothing but karma, nothing is not sin..."

This made her extremely sad, and she once asked her husband what he was going to do, but he just smiled and said: "Spring is over, it's useless to think about it."

But he was still thinking too much.The doctor said that if my husband thought less, he could live a few more years.

Thinking of this, she sighed heavily, "Later, I didn't dare to ask my husband what he was going to do... I should have asked. If I knew, no matter how difficult it was, I would do it for my husband."

This is also a small reason why she wants to find out her husband's life experience.

The fifth girl was relieved, "I hope you can find it."

Sheng Yanling thought, now she still has to look for it secretly, and it is even more difficult to guess.

This is really a sad thing.On a good day, she didn't want to show herself a sad expression, thought about it, and changed the subject, "Fifth sister, tell me about the girls in the Duke of Zhenguo's house, the ladies say hello and leave, the girls can't say To talk together."

Miss Wu nodded, "Yes, we must talk. Although... the Duke of Zhenguo is the prince's Yue family, and the prince and King Jin are...but we still have to get along with each other, and we can't hide, lest people think we have something wrong." Mind, do you understand?"

Feast bell understands.Although she just came to the capital not long ago, she also heard that the crown prince and King Jin were at odds.The Ningguo Mansion is the Yue family of the Fourth Prince.

The fifth girl whispered, "The crown princess is 27 years old this year, the same age as the prince, and she is the eldest girl in the family. There are nineteen girls under her, but fifteen of them have already married, and some of them have married. Kyoto, some of them are in Kyoto, but the married people are not noble, and when I come back today, I will also come back as an aunt, and I won’t have time to chat with us for a long time.”

So there are only four girls they have to remember.

Miss Wu was a little embarrassed, "Actually, I can't remember all the girls in her family."

It's too much.

Sheng Yanling thought for a while about what the fifth girl said just now, and grasped the topic of "not a noble marriage", and lowered her voice to ask, "Is it... only the crown princess is born?"

The fifth girl nodded, "Duke Zhen only has one concubine, the concubine, but three sons. He has five sons in total, and only two concubines. But there are many grandchildren...Anyway, he has too many heirs in his family."

Sheng Yanling took a breath, "So many..."

Miss Wu: "Yes. That's why outsiders sometimes compare our family with his family."

Duke Ning's mansion has few heirs.

Then he looked around, even though he was sitting in the carriage, he was still cautious, his voice was lowered and then lowered, and finally he wanted to speak, but he was still afraid of being heard, so he simply stuck to the ear of the feast bell and said: "Actually, it's not just about talking to Compared with our family, it is also compared with the previous family."

"The Sui family is also a son. That adult has not yet taken a concubine. Since the death of the Sui family's mistress, he has lived alone with his son."

When people in the capital talked about him, they all said that he was a gentleman who was not close to women, but Zhen Guogong had one concubine after another, and had more than twenty children. Above women, he really has no restraint Everyone knows that he is a womanizer.

These words, as long as you tell other girls in the capital, you can understand them.But Sheng Yanling didn't know, she asked curiously, "Follow home?"

The voice was only a little louder, but the fifth girl was terrified, and quickly attached to her again, whispering: "Yes, the previous prince and Taifu followed the family, followed Boying."

Four or five years ago, the fifth girl was already 11 years old when Suifu destroyed her family, but she remembered many things.Seeing that Sheng Yanling didn't know anything about it, she said: "This matter is taboo, you must not talk about it. Especially in the government of Zhen Guo."

She briefly talked about Sui Boying's embezzlement case, and then said: "Back then, Your Majesty, Zhen Guogong and Sui Boying were rumored to be in harmony with each other. Zhen Guogong and Sui Boying were about the same age, and both They are important ministers who assist the crown prince, one is the crown prince's Taifu, and the other is the crown prince's father-in-law, the two are very friendly, they often go out to drink together, and sometimes they will sleep in Zhen Guogong's mansion with Boying."

"Because they are too close, many people compare them, and one of them is Bi Zisi."

Sheng Yanling first lamented that the people in Kyoto are boring, and then sighed, "It's a pity that such a high-ranking official is actually corrupt."

After a pause, he continued: "Fortunately, he has few heirs, otherwise it would be like the government of Zhen Guo. If he is convicted and really wants to confiscate his family and exterminate his family, then he should..."

Damn how many people.

Fifth girl nodded, "Who says it's not."

But the two of them soon felt that the topic was getting heavy again, and they immediately talked about light things, such as the temperament of the ten, six, seven, ten, and eighty-nine girls who were still staying in the Zhenguo government's mansion and whether they got along well.

After talking like this for half an hour, the carriage slowly arrived in front of Duke Zhen's mansion.

Sheng Yanling got out of the carriage, saw the two mighty stone lions in front of the door, and the traffic was busy, and said with emotion: "The prosperous family written in the book should be like this."
