Chapter 304 How the Tigress Was Made

The fifteenth moon hangs round and bright in the sky, and the palace people in the main hall of Fengqi Palace are shuttled back and forth, extremely busy.

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was extremely lively because the children were growing up slowly. The emperor especially liked this kind of scene of grandparents and grandchildren having fun together, and adults were not allowed to restrain the children. It was really lively when so many children gathered together.Brother Jia and Brother Ping had a bad fight with Brother Zhao and Brother Cheng before, but now they don't pay attention to the two of them at all. The mother and brother also came to join in the fun, and for a while the front of Chun Wang's table became the center of everyone's attention.

The emperor looked at it with a smile, turned his head and said to the queen: "These children are still so energetic at this moment, do you have a rest during the day?"

The Empress thought for a while and still didn't mention the matter between sister Zhao and brother Jia's mother and son, and said with a smile: "No, we all went to play by the Biquan Pool." The fourth child already knew about it, so he didn't A person who loves to complain may not be willing to ask herself in front of the emperor, and she thinks that the fourth child will express this anger in his own way, so she should just wait and see.In such a good atmosphere, it is not a good thing that the emperor is in a bad mood when talking about these things that spoil the interest.

The emperor just nodded and didn't ask any more questions. The imperial concubine on the other side raised a wine glass to toast the emperor, and then diverted the emperor's sight.The queen smiled and turned her eyes to Concubine Han who was at the side. Her mind was all on Xiaoan, and she didn't seem to notice the movements here.Concubine De's mid-autumn position was not close to the emperor, Concubine Han was still in the middle, she was hanging her head, not knowing what she was thinking.Concubine Liang was in a good mood, and the daughter-in-law was sitting beside her, and the two were chatting and laughing in harmony.

The queen sat here, looking at the people in the hall, only feeling tired for a while, when will this dinner end.

Fireworks are set off after the dinner party, which is the favorite of the children, and they are simply excited.Huiyu was holding her son, and Ji Qiyu was holding her daughter. Although the fireworks were set off at a safe distance, no one could guarantee that there would be no accidents.This year's fireworks are still tributed by the Inner Court, and there are fresh patterns every year. The bright starry sky takes advantage of the gorgeous fireworks, Huiyu half-raised her head and squinted her eyes slightly, and it is another Mid-Autumn Festival.

Suddenly there was a low exclamation from the crowd not far away, Huiyu turned her head suddenly to look, and saw a row of servants standing not far behind her, nothing unusual.From the direction the voice came from, the crowd seemed to be getting more crowded, and the rest remained the same. Could it be her illusion?
"What's wrong?" Ji Qiyu asked in a low voice when she noticed Huiyu's abnormality.

"I just clearly heard a very low exclamation, but when I looked back, there was nothing there." Hui Yu lowered her voice and whispered in Ji Qiyu's ear, a little puzzled.

Ji Qiyu knew that Huiyu definitely didn't have the kind of calm temperament, so she nodded, "I see, I'll let someone check it out, don't worry about anything now, just go out of the palace after watching the fireworks in a while."

The more festive the day, the more taboo it is for any bad things to happen in the palace.Even if something bad happens, it must be suppressed as soon as possible, and no spreading behavior will occur.The emperor was very taboo about such things, so no one would take the risk of angering the emperor to cause trouble for no reason, so Huiyu thought that she had heard it wrong.Since Ji Qiyu wanted to check Huiyu, she was naturally relieved, nodded and said, "I see, you will come out of the palace with us, right?" As long as he didn't stay to check Huiyu himself, she would feel at ease.

"Yes, don't worry." Ji Qiyu patted Huiyu's hand, turned his head and stretched out his hand to beckon a little eunuch, and whispered a few words, and the little eunuch left immediately.

It took more than half an hour for the fireworks to be set off, and the two pregnant women quit halfway through. Huiyu didn't think much about it, after all, it's a bit dangerous for a pregnant woman to stand for so long.After the fireworks were set off, everyone left the palace and returned home. Ji Qiyu hugged his son and led his daughter, Huiyu followed him, and the family followed the flow of people out of the palace.

Princess Jia greeted Huiyu from a distance, and left with her family. After leaving the palace gate, Huiyu got into the carriage and then heaved a long sigh of relief. Yes, Ji Qiyu went to the front yard, and Ji Qiyu came back just after Huiyu changed and washed.Huiyu was combing her hair when she saw that Ji Qiyu's expression was not quite right, and she couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?" As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly remembered what happened in the palace, and blurted out: "There is news about something in the palace. ?”

Ji Qiyu nodded and sat down opposite Huiyu, "Brother Jia rolled down the steps and fell into a coma at that time, but luckily no blood was seen." Blood is taboo in the womb on festive days, it is unlucky.It is precisely because of this that when this matter appeared at that time, it was immediately suppressed, so that no one was alarmed, otherwise everyone would be uneasy.So at that time, the empress let Princess Chun and Princess Ning leave early on the pretext of being pregnant. After all, it was too conspicuous to leave only Princess Ning, and Princess Jin was purely accompanying her.

Huiyu was taken aback for a moment, tried to think about the situation at that time, and then said: "Didn't Brother Jia follow Dong Wan at that time? It seems that he is located some distance away from the steps, right?"

"According to the news from the palace, it is said that Princess Ning took Sister Jiu to watch the fireworks. Sister Jiu came to the steps over there for some reason, and Brother Jia fell down to protect her."

"That doesn't make any sense. Where's the nanny who serves Sister Jiu?" Every little master has servants who follow him every step of the way. Sister Jiu is a slow-witted child, and Xia Bingyu will never let her wait on her. people leave.And I have always heard that Xia Bingyu's child and Dong Wan's child rarely communicate even in the palace, and Jia Geer suddenly rescued Jiu Jieer, this matter is like June Feixue.But Huiyu also didn't want to think that Brother Jia could already calculate people like this at such a young age, and Huiyu also felt that such a young child really couldn't do such a thing. Tend to have accidents happen at that time.something like this happened
"I wasn't there at the time, and I don't know what I did." Ji Qiyu looked at Huiyu after finishing speaking and said, "The affairs of Prince Ning's Mansion have nothing to do with us, you should go to bed early after a long day, I'll go wash up first. "

Huiyu is indeed tired, not to mention that she really doesn't want to take care of the affairs of Prince Ning's mansion as long as they don't bring disaster to them.

At this time, Prince Ning's mansion was busy.

Dong Wan sat in front of the bed and looked at her son who hadn't woken up yet. Xia Bingyu and Ji Fuyan sat on the chairs beside her. Because Jia Geer saved Sister Jiu, so even the pregnant princess condescended to come here , Thinking of this, she sneered in her heart, she didn't want her gratitude, she only wanted her son to be safe and sound.

For this son, Ji Fuyan still loves and loves her very much. Seeing Dong Wan sitting there with red eyes and a haggard expression, she wanted to say something for a moment but felt unable to speak.

Xia Bingyu glanced at it, and then took the initiative to say: "Sister Dong also said that Brother Jia will wake up, there will be no major problems, as long as he is healthy and healthy, he will definitely recover. This time, thanks to Brother Jia Son, otherwise Sister Jiu doesn't know what to do, I thank you here, it is you who raised the child well."

Dong Wan suppressed the anger in her heart, and without turning her head, she just said lightly: "The princess is too much, it is impossible for Brother Jia to ignore her sister's danger, this child is soft-hearted." With sobs, his complexion became more and more haggard and withered.

"He's a good boy. Sister Jiu and I will remember it too." Xia Bingyu caressed her forehead. What happened at that time was purely accidental. She sent the nurse next to Sister Jiu to bring water to Sister Jiu. After a while, sister Jiu ran to the steps. She was really grateful to Jia Geer for this incident, at least he saved her daughter.

Ji Fuyan looked at Xia Bingyu and said, "Go back and rest first, I'll watch over here." It's really not good for a pregnant person to hold on after a busy day.

Xia Bingyu stood up and said, "My lord, don't worry about it. I'm not healthy, and I'm really tired. I'll take care of you these few days. I think Brother Jia would like to see you when he wakes up."

Reciprocating, Jia Geer saved Sister Jiu, so she made up for it by doing so.

Ji Fuyan frowned, didn't say whether to agree or not, but asked to send Xia Bingyu back to the main courtyard to rest.

After Xia Bingyu left, Dong Wan only looked at her son who was still asleep, and didn't look at Ji Fuyan who was sitting beside her. Now her eyes are all about her son.If she had known this, she should have told her son that no matter what the situation was, she should keep her own safety first, instead of lying on the bed like this.The eye sockets were sore and astringent, and the tears flowed down uncontrollably.

"You...don't be sad, brother Jia will be fine." Ji Fuyan looked at Dong Wan's clumsy consolation, the two had been separated for too long, so it was funny to say these comforting words at this time.

"Thank you for your trouble, my lord. It's getting late, my lord should go to rest too. There's still an early morning tomorrow. I will take care of you here." Dong Wan said.

Ji Fuyan could feel the indifference and alienation in Dong Wan's words. They have come to this point, there are a lot of right and wrong grievances mixed in, sometimes he himself can't tell who is more right and less wrong.But these are not important now, Dong Wan only has Jia Geer in her eyes, and she will never stare at her like before.

Ji Fuyan was also a little disappointed, seeing his son lying pale on the bed, it would be a lie to say that he was not uncomfortable at this moment, but he didn't know what else to do if he guarded him like this.Brother Jia did this to save Sister Jiu. Should he say that Brother Jia should not save Sister Jiu?Because of his daughter's flaws, he spends more time and love on her, unknowingly, he has become farther and farther away from Dong Wan's mother and son.

"Wan'er..."

"My lord." Dong Wan interrupted Ji Fuyan, "Brother Jia is right, I am not angry or annoyed, so you don't have to worry. The princess and the child in her belly are safe and sound, and the princess is also safe and sound, that's enough .So you don't have to worry about anything, I have nothing left now, only these two children, so I will take good care of them, so the prince doesn't have to worry."

When Dong Wan said this, Ji Fuyan inevitably thought of the fact that the Duke of Dingguo was on the side of Ji Qiyu. He was a little annoyed because of this, but now he couldn't bear to look at Dong Wan.Speaking of which, Dong Wan was also abandoned by her family. She did nothing wrong, but she had to bear his anger and the contempt and jokes of everyone in the palace.Women rely on their families and husbands to survive, Dong Wan has no family to rely on, and he has a lot of prejudice against her, and now even his son is injured and bedridden...

"I know you blame me..."

"My lord misunderstood me. How dare I be a concubine? Never dare to think like this." Dong Wan was finally willing to face Ji Fuyan at this time, "A concubine who even abandoned her mother's family and fell out with Princess Jing for the sake of the child As a human being, the only thing I can rely on is the prince’s protection of the children. Apart from the children, I have nothing to be afraid of losing, and I dare not blame the prince. How could the prince be wrong? The fault is all my concubine’s fault.”

At this time, Dong Wan was like a hedgehog covered in thorns, her whole body was in a state of attack.She would never say these words in front of Ji Fuyan before, but now she blurted them out, followed by a sense of relief.

Seeing Dong Wan's expression, Ji Fuyan was also a little anxious, women's sky is only trapped in this backyard, but what men have to do is the vast world outside.The Xinguo Mansion is his natal family. Compared with the Dingguo Mansion, he naturally believes more in the Xinguo Mansion, which has supported him for more than 20 years. After all, Dingguo Mansion paid back a Jing Wangfei, which is normal things.It is impossible for a person to have two opposing forces at the same time, so how can there be any development if the internal struggle is endless?It was true that he reused Duke Xin's mansion, but he was really disappointed that Duke Dingguo's mansion turned to Prince Jing's mansion because of this.

If you want to gain his trust, you will naturally have to pay some price, but the Dingguo government is obviously unwilling, so how can you blame him?He knew in his heart that Duke Xinguo had paid more for him, but women might not understand it, and they were more likely to resent him for it.

Dong Wan must have charged the Dingguo Mansion's account to him, but for him, this matter is also a bit wronged.

The matter of Prince Ning's Mansion was not publicized to everyone, and the matter of Jia Ge'er's injury was only well known to everyone.Huiyu didn't want to take care of the bad debts of Prince Ning's Mansion, but she felt that with Dong Wan's scheming, she wouldn't miss this opportunity to regain favor. After all, when Xia Bingyu and Ji Fuyan both felt guilty, it was the best opportunity.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dong Yuncheng and the second master returned to Beijing in a few days. This time, they also came back with several well-known gentlemen sitting in the hall. For a while, the second master Dong's free education became a thing of praise in the capital. things.Originally, I just wanted to set up a simple free school, but now that I have reached this point, I don’t even have a name like before. In the end, after everyone discussed, the name of the free school was named Bohui.Because of the free teaching and the presence of famous teachers, Bohui Academy has a good reputation, and quite a lot of students come to enroll at that time.

"The headache now is that there are so many students and the place is small. We are thinking about whether to buy the yard next to it." Mrs. Dong Er complained to her daughter, and she did not expect that things would develop to this point.

"Are there a lot of students?" Huiyu was also a little surprised. "Daddy's school is not big in the first place. If there are too many students, it will not be a good thing." nails.At least as far as the court is concerned, it is not used to the reputation of private schools overshadowing Chinese studies.Listening to what Mrs. Dong said, it seems that Bohui has become popular all of a sudden. In the past, Bohui was only famous within a certain range, but now even people from outside the capital also come to study. Huiyu had to think more about this matter, at least she didn't think that Bo Hui had really reached such a famous level, if the truth was as Mrs. Dong Er said, then there must be someone behind him who deliberately pushed Bo Hui's pace, and the pace was fast. Too big, but easy to fall.

"Yes, everyone knows, but..." Second Madam Dong sighed, "He has come all the way, should we hurry back?"

"Don't worry, I'll discuss this matter with the prince, and you can mention it with your father. It's best to know how these students from other places know about Bohui Academy. Of course, you must listen to the truth." Huiyu said solemnly .

Mrs. Dong Er glanced at her daughter. Although she was not very proficient in external affairs, she could hear the difference in her daughter's tone at this time, and asked, "Do you suspect that there is something hidden here?" Yixue is a practical matter that Mr. Dong Er has worked so hard to do. If someone is really playing tricks behind her back, she will definitely not let it go!

"I'm not sure yet. I'll get back to you after I ask the lord." Huiyu comforted Mrs. Dong Er, "Even if someone did something wrong, you don't have to worry about it with your son-in-law around."

"Hmph, who dares to scratch a tiger's head, I'll let her know how a tigress is made!" Mrs. Dong Er replied domineeringly, "It's impossible to pretend to be my mother's family!"

Huiyu: ...
