Ajiu

Chapter 177
"Little Zhengzheng who has no conscience." Ajiu cast a resentful glance at her son, and then drifted away.

"Ajiu who has no conscience." The emperor and Second Master Pei saw that she had left Xiao Zhengzheng behind and left without hesitation, feeling resentful in their hearts.Xiao Zhengzheng is such a lovely child, it is unbearable for Ajiu to treat him like this.

After Ajiu left, Xiaozheng was competing with the ball in his hand, and kept playing with the ball with a stern face, ignoring anyone.The emperor felt something was wrong, and asked Second Master Pei, "Zhonglang, is Xiaozheng really angry?" Second Master Pei looked at Xiao Zhengzheng as if he was angry with someone, and said distressedly: "Your Majesty, after noon, we will Order someone to call the princess back, okay? The child cannot leave the mother." The emperor thought it was true, "That's the deal."

Ah Jiu still didn't know that her vacation had been shortened from half a day to half a day, and she happily went to the banquet like a bird out of the cage.

It's not that she is very interested in such parties, or that she likes dealing with these concubines and princesses very much.It's just that, for most of the day, she can ignore the child and leave behind the responsibility of being a mother for the time being, so she feels relaxed.

No matter how many palace people Fu Mu, no matter how dedicated the nurse is, they can't replace the mother.Ajiu usually takes care of Xiao Zhengzheng by herself, although it is a lot of fun, she also feels tired after a long time.A half-day vacation can be enlarged, and the child is temporarily entrusted to the grandfather and maternal grandfather. Ajiu plans to let herself relax.

That's right, Ajiu came here to enjoy the flowers, drink and chat to relax.She is a crown princess, and the only person with higher status than her is Empress Zhang, and now Empress Zhang dare not provoke her. Ajiu has no pressure to go to such a party.

"After meeting the guests one by one, I went to talk to Mrs. Qi! I had to scare her, 'Xiao Zhengzheng is being made serious and rigid by you, and he doesn't like to laugh'. I can scare Mrs. Seven , I will occasionally give Seventh Brother a bright and beautiful smile in the future." Ajiu thought happily.

By the lotus pond, there is a cool breeze, and the water pavilion by the pool is full of ladies in costumes, and there are many innocent and lovely girls chatting and playing in the pavilion, the atmosphere is relaxed and lively.

Ajiu met the guests with a happy face, but was sent by Queen Zhang to accompany the old ladies, "You are young and funny, sit and talk with aunts and aunts." The errands of the princess and the old concubine were handed over to Ajiu.

Among the guests, apart from Princess Songning and Princess Longqing, the two emperor's aunts, the most senior ones were Princess Ning, Princess Min, and Princess An.They are all the concubines of the emperor's uncle or cousin. Princess Ning and Princess Min are sons who passed away, and their grandsons became princes. They were originally students of the capital, and when they were old, they wanted to return to their roots, so they moved back to the palace in the capital. .Concubine An did not leave her grandson after her son left, and she returned to the capital with her only granddaughter, Princess Rongchang.These five old ladies are all old, although they have different personalities and appearances, they all show a kind and peaceful appearance, especially Princess An, who is the most easy-going and approachable.

Ah Jiu smiled and agreed, "Yes, Empress." I came to relax, but you let me accompany some old ladies, Your Highness, Empress, you really love me and treat me preferentially.

The two eldest princesses Songning and Longqing, as well as Princess Ning and Princess Fujian all laughed, "Let the princess, a flower-like young man, sit with us, and I'll be bored. It's rare for a day to be free, and the princess can do whatever she wants, Mo and We are polite." Princess An also smiled, "Isn't it? We are old people, and the princess talks to us, how can we not be bored?" Ajiu said a few words politely, and ordered the maid to bring lotus and lotus leaf tea, "Drink in summer These are excellent, aunts and great-uncles should try." He accompanied the old ladies with ease, with a calm look on his face.

Concubine An is a talkative old lady, chatting homely with Ajiu with great interest.She is an elder at the first level of uncle and grandmother, so Ajiu naturally treats her respectfully, and refuses to put on the airs of a princess, talking and laughing at Yanyan, being modest and polite.Concubine An smiled and said a few words to Ajiu, and specially ordered her granddaughter Princess Rongchang to come over to meet her cousin. Princess Rongchang walked over and saluted meticulously. Ajiu smiled and said, "Your sister is welcome." As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at Princess Rongchang more.

Princess Rongchang is a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, delicate and thin, with a stubborn expression on her little face.After the death of her father, King An, no son was left behind, and Princess An also left sadly soon. Although Princess Rongchang was born in the royal family, she was an orphan without father and mother. Only her grandmother, Princess An, could rely on.Speaking of which, he was also a poor child.

However, no matter how pitiful she is, she is much better than ordinary orphans.The emperor took pity on the death of both her parents and took special care of her. He built the princess mansion for her on Wangfu Street, and the patriarchal mansion was ordered to select Yibin for her.The future of Princess Rongchang is still very guaranteed.

Concubine An said with a smile, "The brothers of the Crown Princess's natal family are all promising. I heard that all of them won the Juren? It's really rare."

Ah Jiu's older brothers, starting with their eldest brother Pei Wei, all won the Juren and stopped taking part in the examination.Up to this time, seven of Pei Ge's eight grandsons have passed the exam, and only the youngest, Pei Lin, has never passed the provincial exam, so she has no honor for the exam.

"Are you going to bring the topic to my starling? Or am I overthinking, and she just casually mentioned this sentence?" Ajiu guessed what Princess An said, smiled and said modestly: "Where, you are too proud. I The elder brothers are indifferent, and don't care about fame and fame. It's not just the case, it doesn't matter."

Crown Princess An smiled, "It's extremely rare for a scholar to win the exam. It doesn't matter how you say it? The Crown Princess is too modest. Your brothers are so outstanding, and your sister-in-law must also be a famous lady, so they are a good match."

Ajiu bowed slightly, politely, "My sister-in-laws are all wonderful, they treat me like my own sister."

At this moment, Ajiu can almost conclude that Concubine An is planning for Princess Rongchang. "No, no." Ajiu denied it on the spot.A girl like Princess Rongchang cannot be my eighth sister-in-law.

It's not that Ajiu has any prejudice against Princess Rongchang, whose parents both died, but she just thinks that such a slightly thin girl with a stubborn expression is really not suitable to marry myna.Starling Pei Lin was the youngest among his brothers, with a gentle temperament and a little shyness. He should marry a beautiful young girl as his wife, not Princess Rongchang.

Princess An smiled, and praised the lotus leaf tea, "The soup is clear and tastes fresh." Ajiu smiled at Mimi, "Isn't it?" She sipped tea with everyone.

Princess Ningshou and Princess Fushou were very interested in going rowing, so they sent someone to ask Ajiu if they wanted to go together. Princess Fushou took her children, Princess Antai, Princess Rongchang, Princess Longqing's granddaughter An'er and other girls onto the painting boat.

There are clear waves in the pool, endless green lotus leaves, or pink or white lotus flowers, graceful and graceful, with a fragrance overflowing far away. When a gust of breeze blows by, the lotus flowers hang their heads shyly, making them more charming.Five or six painted boats are floating on the water, and the silver bell-like laughter of girls sounds from time to time, which makes people feel refreshed.

"The Crown Princess should also go with them." Eldest Princess Songning said with a smile, and her words were kind and intimate.

Her only son, Jing Qi, was the one who abolished the crown prince, and was dispatched by the emperor to the Northwest. For several years, he was never allowed to return to Beijing.She personally begged the emperor, and also bribed the emperor's servants with a lot of money, but it didn't work.Originally, she looked at Ajiu very disliked, but the situation was stronger than others, and seeing that the crown prince's position was getting more and more stable, she had to start to change, and wanted to show favor to the crown prince and his wife.

As for the deposed prince, alas, living in seclusion for a lifetime is his fate, and no one can help him.

Ajiu smiled sweetly.Is Princess Songning forced to change course? It's been a few years, and the reaction is so slow.In fact, the scenery in the northwest is beautiful and magnificent, so what's wrong with staying in the northwest for a few more years.

Princess Xiping specially came over to chat with several aunts and aunts, and quietly told Ajiu, "Your Majesty still refuses to talk." Princess Antai is her beloved daughter. The marriage between the princess and Qilang of the Pei family was pushed back and forth, but the emperor refused to agree, so she dared not say goodbye to the emperor's brother.

"Don't worry, Auntie, it's okay." Ajiu chuckled, "Brother Ten and I begged Dad whenever we had a chance, and Dad was a little soft-hearted, and it probably won't last long. Auntie, at worst, when Xiao Zhengzheng can speak, I will replace him with Seventh Uncle." Say good things, father will never refuse."

Is the emperor's father willing to reject Xiao Zhengzheng?Will not.

Princess Xiping was stunned, "It will take about a year for Xiao Zhengzheng to be able to speak, right? Ajiu, aunt is worried..." Ajiu laughed aloud, "My seventh brother can afford to wait, my third uncle and third Aunt can afford to wait too. Aunt, you don't know, my third uncle and aunt love children, and they are willing to wait for the girl Seventh Brother likes."

Mr. Pei is a father who can play with the child in person, and a father who can get along with the child. His precious Ajing fell in love with the girl's house. He must support him without reservation and will never hold back.

Princess Xiping smiled slightly, "Ajiu, don't worry about marrying Antai to the Pei family, so don't worry about it." It's easy to find a richer family than the Pei family, but it's hard to find a harmonious family than the Pei family.

"Auntie, you can wait at ease, my seventh brother is a considerate and obedient son-in-law!" Ajiu smiled happily.

Princess Xiping was elated, and she said a few words of homework with her aunts, and Shi Shiran left.

It's good that the Pei family didn't wait for my brother to be so stubborn.

This year's Lotus Appreciation Party added a new face, the Qingbo County Lord who was conferred by His Majesty the Emperor.This Qingbo county lord's name is Chen Lingwei, he looks about fifteen or sixteen years old, has a very good appearance, and is a native of Ming Dynasty.She was wearing an elegant light lilac-colored dress, standing meekly beside Concubine Qiu, attracting attention like a delicate flower.

The county head is the title of a woman in the clan, and there are very few examples of non-royal members being canonized as the county head.Because of her rarity, this Qingbo county lord has attracted much attention. "He is born very well" "Not only is he born well, but he can also dress up. This light lilac-colored dress makes her extraordinarily elegant and light." "Etiquette is also good, humble and elegant, although he doesn't talk much, he is a lovely person." The [-]-year-old Qingbo county head has won unanimous praise from the princesses.

Seeing Chen Lingwei's popularity, Concubine Qiu felt relieved, and inevitably mentioned to Princess Xiping and Princess Xining, "This child's appearance, character, and temperament are all first-class, but it's a pity that his father left early, and there is no one in the family to take care of him." I have delayed the marriage." Everyone knows that the Qingbo County Lord got this title because her brother saved the thirteen princes, and of course understands Qiu Guifei's words and deeds. Her own son was saved, and she wants to treat the Chen family brothers and sisters favorably. , but it is also human nature.However, those who have unmarried sons in their families are not very willing to marry a girl like Qingbo county master as their daughter-in-law.Without him, the head of Qingbo County is the concubine of the Linjiang Marquis Mansion, and her father died early.

There is a concubine in the Jianing Changping mansion, and he mentioned it to Concubine Qiu intentionally or unintentionally, but Concubine Qiu refused, "The son of your family, even if he is a concubine, he must be a good one. However, Awei's father is gone, and the birth mother (Chen Lingyun and Chen Lingwei's biological mother is said to be deceased), I still want to find her a natural child."

What Qiu Guifei meant was that a concubine's daughter-in-law, as a mother-in-law, would at most not abuse her, and would not treat her too much.But Chen Lingwei's parents are gone, so if she is married as a son-in-law, her mother-in-law will love her a little bit.

Jianing Changping just mentioned this casually, but when he heard that Qiu Guifei disagreed, he smiled, and the matter was considered over.

Princess Xiping and Princess Xining are familiar with Concubine Qiu Guifei's disposition, so they couldn't help smiling at each other.She is still so arrogant, so unable to see the situation clearly, with Chen Lingwei's background, it is not easy to want to marry into a wealthy family and have a child from the first wife.

"If you want a child born on the same day, you should go to a second-class family to find it." Princess Xiping and Princess Xining both thought this way.

Before noon, the high servant next to the emperor came and said a few words to Queen Zhang with a smile.Empress Zhang hurriedly smiled and said: "Let her go back quickly, it's important to take care of the emperor's grandson." The waiter Gao agreed, and walked towards Ajiu with a smile on his face, "His Royal Highness, the emperor's grandson has not been very happy, your majesty and the Marquis of Guangning No matter how funny I am, I won't laugh. Your Majesty tells you not to be playful, so I'll go back now."

"Little Zhengzheng is so bad." Ajiu couldn't laugh or cry.Mother just wants to play for a long time, are you unhappy?
Being a mother can take a break once in a while, Xiao Zhengzheng, my mother wants to explain this truth to you.
