Ajiu

Chapter 129
"My senior brother is strong in martial arts and has a meticulous mind. He will definitely protect His Highness King Wei." The porter said very considerately, fearing that Ajiu might be worried.

Ajiu smiled sweetly, "It's so good."

Her complexion is fair, translucent, and when she is shy, her face is pale and pink, and she is very beautiful.The concierge saw that although she seemed very calm, but her face was pink and shy like a girl, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, Miss Jiu has grown up, the little girl who was running around playing in the garden wearing a short-sleeved summer shirt, The little girl who pestered herself to learn martial arts but then frequently slacked off was now a girl who was about to reach her age, a beautiful girl.And the little prince who climbed up the wall just to see her and talk to her has become her fiancé.

Fate.

After playing wildly for a while, the four children were taken to the pavilion by the nurse, washed their hands and faces, and sat on a small stool to drink water.They are still young and don't drink tea, they drink plain water or honey water.Four white and tender children wrapped in thick clothes sat side by side, holding a small water glass in each hand, looking very cute.Mrs. Fang looked interesting, so she also went to sit in the pavilion and teased them to play.As soon as Mrs. Fang came in, the daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law naturally followed suit, and the pavilion was full of people.

Brother Xiao was the youngest, he looked at Mrs. Fang, Mrs. Gu and the others, stretched out his hand to hold the corner of the skirt of his third aunt, Mrs. Yuan, raised his face and asked earnestly, "Hold, hug." He asked Mrs. Yuan to hug him.Ajiu watched Zhile, brother Xiao, you little brat, you really have eyesight, you know how to find beautiful women at such a young age, right?My third sister-in-law is the prettiest, so you just hang around her.

Yuanshi smiled softly, bent down to hug Brother Xiao, but was stopped by Lin Youhui, "Brother Xiao, come to your uncle and grandma." Yuanshi was not allowed to hug her.Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Gu saw it, as if they had noticed something.Mrs. Fang called Lin Youhui over, and asked her quietly, "Brother Qi's daughter-in-law is trustworthy?" Lin Youhui laughed in a low voice: "I haven't changed the laundry this month, maybe I have. However, the days are short, so I can't say for sure. Mother If you have it, of course it’s good, if you don’t have it, don’t take it easy.” Mrs. Fang laughed, and jokingly said, “Why am I angry? It’s just a great-grandson. If there is one, it doesn’t matter.” Lin Youhui pursed his lips laugh.

Mrs. Gu was also happy when she found out, "Second brother and sister, you are going to have a grandson too." Lin Youhui shook his head deliberately, "Sister-in-law, I am a granddaughter." The first child wants a little granddaughter? How can there be such a good thing. The second brother and sister, you can be like a mother, and the ninth is a little granddaughter, so you should be very lucky." Joking, the two sisters-in-law were very happy.What happened to grandson?Although the Pei family doesn't care about grandsons, we, as grandmothers, are just as happy to have a grandson!
Ajiu is a ghost, seeing the expressions, words and deeds of the third sister-in-law, grandmother, mother and others, she has already guessed roughly.She pulled Lin Youhui aside and asked, "Sister-in-law San is going to give me a little nephew?" Lin Youhui didn't want to tell this little girl like her, but she also knew that she was smart and couldn't hide it from her, so he smiled and told the truth said.Ajiu first smiled and bent her eyebrows, "The third brother is going to have a baby, and the baby will call me aunt!" Then she became worried, "Mother, you are very experienced, in your opinion, the third sister-in-law will give birth to the first child." Little nephew, or little niece?" Lin Youhui is her own mother, who doesn't know her, once she heard what she said, she knew what she meant, and said with a smile: "Ninny, you don't need to care about this. Your third sister-in-law At this time, it is still uncertain whether you are pregnant or not, who knows if it is a boy or a girl? You are really lucky to give birth to a daughter, and when the child is born, you will also be out of the cabinet."

Ajiu took Lin Youhui's arm and acted like a baby, "No, I will be my parents' precious daughter for the rest of my life, and I will not leave you." Lin Youhui smiled, "Sure, mother will tell your father when she returns home, let him find you a son-in-law. If you don't want to marry anyone, obediently come to the door." Ajiu looked mischievous, "Okay, okay."

It's so interesting to be kind and upright to join Pei's family.

"Daughter, shouldn't you be a little shy?" Lin Youhui reminded Ah Jiu.

Ajiu made a shy look, and said in a coquettish voice, "Mother, how can you tell me this, she is still young."

Lin Youhui couldn't help laughing.

Pei Qi and Pei Yu came back after going out and rushed over to join in the fun.When they came, Ajiu folded a branch of red plum and held it in her arms. That branch of red plum blossoms was full of rouge, fragrant and sweet, and against Ajiu's fair and delicate face, it was charming and charming.

"It can be painted." Pei Qi admired.

"Hurry up and paint." Pei Yu quickly ordered the maid to fetch paper, pen and paint.

The two brothers went to the pavilion to meet the elders, and the maid also brought drawing paper, brushes, etc., and laid out the desk. "Third brother, you are better at painting than me, you come." Pei Yu graciously gave way to her brother.

Mrs. Fang watched with a smile on her face, Brother Hua and his brothers nestled next to their mother, looking at Third Uncle curiously.Lin Youhui coughed lightly, "Ah Yuan, when your brother is painting, he doesn't like to be disturbed." Pei Yuan said "Oh", and came to accompany her mother, peeling walnuts for her.Lin Youhui turned to look at Yuan Shi, "Ah Qi doesn't seem to be very comfortable with that big brush, go and have a look." Yuan agreed softly, walked slowly to the desk, and checked the big brush for Pei Qi.

Pei Qi and Yuan Shi were talking in a low voice, probably discussing how to layout and how to color. After discussing for a while, Pei Qi picked up the pen, and Yuan Shi pressed the drawing paper for him. Pei Qi asked his wife's opinion from time to time while drawing .Pei Qi is gentle and handsome, and the Yuan family is unparalleled in elegance. Standing together, the two of them are beautiful and picturesque.

Qi Yingying smiled and told the maid, "If the eldest young master comes home, ask him to come quickly, and just say that I'm bothering him to make a painting." Little Gu also smiled, "As soon as the second young master comes home, invite him to come here, Brother Xiao It's so cute, if his father draws it, it would be great." The fourth son Pei Lang's wife, Yang Shi, had just entered the house not long ago and was not very familiar with the Pei family, so she opened her eyes wide in surprise when she saw the elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law like this. eyes.

Little Gu smiled at her affectionately, "Fourth brother and sister, if fourth brother comes back, let him draw a picture for you." Qi Yingying stretched out her hand to straighten her temple hair, and said gently: "Fourth brother is good at painting and calligraphy. , He drew you, it must be beautiful." Yang laughed along, "What the elder sister said is true, what the second sister-in-law said is true." Qi Yingying and Xiao Gu saw her stiff, and laughed it off.Brother and sister, you will soon know that in Pei's family, love between husband and wife is the most normal thing, and it is like this in every family.

After Pei Wei and Pei Jue returned home, instead of painting for their wife and son as Qi Yingying and Xiao Gu requested, they also joined in the fun and each drew a picture for Ah Jiu.Ajiu was elated, "Do you want to draw me?" Wearing a white fox cloak and holding a red plum, Didi excitedly became a model.

Seeing it, Yang secretly sighed.No wonder the parents repeatedly confessed before leaving the pavilion, "Although your sister-in-law is in the next room, she should not be treated slowly, and she must be affectionate", so it was so.

Both Qi Yingying and Xiao Gu felt a little distressed, "My brothers can still paint for Ajiu this year, but by this time next year, it may not be easy to meet again. Sigh, while Ajiu is still at home, please love her more."

Not only Qi Yingying and Xiao Gu's think so, I'm afraid everyone in the Pei family thinks this way: Ajiu will leave the cabinet next year, and in her last year in her natal family, pamper her, love her, and let her live happily Live every day.

Ajiu worked as a model for a while, looking at the different styles of paintings drawn by her brothers, looking for plums in the snow, with a smile on her face, "Every one is beautiful! Brothers are amazing!" Pei Wei and the others were all humbled by her. , "Where is it? The main reason is that my younger sister is beautiful." Ajiu was flustered.

Ajiu instructs Chu He and the others to carefully put away the picture of "Treading Snow and Finding Plum Trees", and when Mr. Pei Ge, Uncle Pei, and Second Master Pei return home, he proudly shows it to them.Pei Ge always praised, "My daughter is so beautiful!" Uncle Pei and Second Master Pei were much more fair, and both praised, "Ajiu is born well, and Awei and the others are good at drawing!"

Elder Pei Ge had important discussions with Uncle Pei and Second Master Pei, but Ajiu refused to leave, "It's uncomfortable to eavesdrop!" She said confidently.Grandfather, Daddy, Daddy, if you don’t allow me to listen openly, I will eavesdrop. It’s very hard to eavesdrop, you know?

Pei Ge was always amused by his cute little granddaughter, "It's okay to make my daughter feel uncomfortable? Listen, listen." Second Master Pei had nothing to do with his precious daughter, and seeing his father being so used to it, he couldn't do anything about it.Uncle Pei smiled, and pointed to his side, "Ninny, sit here with Daddy." Ajiu sat over cleverly, with a smile on her face, ready to attend the confidential meeting.

Today the emperor ordered King Wei to bring 31 elixir pills, and went to ask the prince, "What are the effects of these elixir medicines you offered?" Knowing that the emperor hadn't taken a single pill, he became angry from embarrassment and asked King Wei, "Didn't you write a letter to tell me that His Majesty had taken it? So you lied to me! Xiao Shi, you lied to me!"

The prince's disappointment was very strong.King Wei is his own younger brother, although sometimes he is a bit arrogant, but he has always been pure and kind. The prince never dreamed that the things that King Wei wrote to him in his own handwriting were actually false.

King Wei raised his eyebrows, "You said in the report that this is the panacea for prolonging life. Since it is a medicine for prolonging life, what difference does it make if His Majesty takes it earlier or later? Why are you so excited? Where?"

The prince stared at King Wei angrily, stretched out his hand to take a elixir from the plate, and swallowed it. You suspect that there is something wrong with this medicine, right? I will taste a elixir myself to let you know that it is not poison.

"After the prince tasted one, his eyes were really bright and he was full of energy..." Mr. Pei Ge pondered.

Uncle Pei and Second Master Pei were also a little confused.The emperor probably believed that the prince was going to plot against him before, but if there is no problem with the elixir offered by the prince, what is the explanation?

Ajiu lay powerlessly on the table.He is kind and upright. He is a pure child. He has no dirty thoughts. The men of the Pei family are too pure... But, grandfather and father, no matter how pure you are, you have been magistrates for many years. I don't know... Don't you know this? .

In fact, Ajiu is also a pure and good child. However, a novel that impressed her once described that in Toyo, someone insured a huge amount of life insurance for a young and strong homeless man, and then let a beautiful woman die day and night. Haunt him, ask, keep asking.Soon, the homeless man died, and the huge insurance money was paid.

Ah Jiu didn't understand why Mr. Pei Ge couldn't think of this.Isn't it common for superstitious alchemists to offer elixir to the emperor?It was recorded more than once in the history books.Even if the normal tonic is really useful, it is impossible to take one pill and immediately look radiant. There must be something wrong with the medicine that takes effect so quickly, okay?

However, Ah Jiu thought about it again, and felt that this was also very good.If the grandfather couldn't think of it, he wouldn't tell King Wei; if King Wei didn't know, he would be at a loss when facing the emperor.The emperor is a person who has been romantic, what can't you understand?King Wei, on the other hand, is not shrewd at the moment, if he is a bit stupid, it will only arouse the emperor's pity, and there is no harm.

Ajiu raised her head and continued to listen.Grandpa glanced at her with a half-smile, "Actually, even if there is something wrong with the elixir, he can't be convicted. He can be blamed on a certain alchemist, and it can be presumed that he is being sheltered."

Ajiu nodded repeatedly.This fact, this reason, is not sufficient for the deposed prince.As for the prince's plan to plot against Ah Jiu, this family scandal will definitely be kept secret, neither the emperor nor the Pei family will let outsiders know about it.

Ajiu listened attentively, very focused.Destitute prince, this matter cannot be delayed, cannot be delayed.The emperor is getting old and his physique is poor, and if he fails to keep it clean, he will go to drink tea with God someday, but now, although the prince is jealous by the emperor, he is still a legitimate prince.

The prince must be killed, as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the old emperor had an accident one day and the prince came to power, one can imagine what kind of predicament the Pei family will face.

This year's winter was extremely cold.In the severe winter season, heavy snow was flying, and many poor people outside the city were frozen to death.Even the emperor in the Forbidden City was sick and bedridden.It is said that he was very ill, sometimes sober, sometimes unconscious.

When Ajiu heard the news that the emperor was ill, her heart tightened.

If nothing else, a blizzard is coming.

You are kind and upright. You have been dependent on the emperor since you were a child. This will be a severe test for you. You must be careful.
