Return to the Qing Dynasty(30)

"It's late at night, where are you going?" Ba Fujin grabbed Ba Ye's arm, "It's so cold outside!"

Yes! It's so cold outside! You can just throw the child at the palace gate and come back on your own.

He broke away from Fujin's hand and didn't look back no matter how he was called from behind. Suddenly, he remembered what Concubine Hui said about the queen - respect your elders, be harmonious to your brothers, and care for your children.

Yes! The queen did it. Who dares to say that such a queen does not love her husband.

But what about Fujin?

She fulfilled her responsibilities as a daughter-in-law to her mother-in-law, but it was only a responsibility. When the two of them got along, E-niang couldn't live up to her mother-in-law's reputation. For Hui's mother, her adoptive mother, she sometimes couldn't care about her face.

.

Not to mention her brothers, what about Laojiu and Laoten? See how the Queen gave food and clothes to Thirteenth Fujin even when she was pregnant, and did not stop until the child was born. But what happened to Fujin?

The relationship between the ninth and tenth younger siblings is not like getting along with sisters-in-law, but more like meeting the family members who are servants of one's own family. No matter how peaceful they are, they still have a sense of superiority in their hearts.

Forget about her own children. She only has two children, a son and a daughter. She knows better than anyone the circumstances under which they were born. For her sake, she did not let their mother see the two children after they were born.

, just give it to Fujin. If you take good care of him and the family is harmonious, even if you fail outside, you can still have a peaceful place at home with your children around you and making love.

But what about now?

For the first time, he wondered if he had done something wrong these years? Was he really as important to Fujin as he said? If it was important, why didn't he worry about his own feelings.

No! Fujin was not like this before. At that time, her own feelings were the most important thing to her.

But since when did it change?

It was after the death of the late emperor! In other words, it was after the fourth son ascended the throne and he was no longer the majestic eighth master before.

So who does she love? The successful Ba Ye? Or the failed Ba Ye?

This sudden thought made him feel angry.

"Eighth Master!" he thought as he walked. The wind felt under his feet as he walked quickly. As he was about to go out the door, he suddenly heard a shout, followed by rapid footsteps. He paused and knew he was coming just by the sound.

The man is He Zhuo.

He turned his head and saw that He Zhuo was sweating. The expression on his face softened and he still looked gentle and elegant. "What's wrong?"

"Eighth Master." He Zhuo stopped him and said hurriedly, "You can't go now."

The eighth master looked at He Zhuo, and He Zhuo sighed, "Family scandals should not be publicized. This is already the case. Now we can only publicize the family affairs to everyone... What's more, our young master is in the palace. Da Gege can't stand the grievance."

.”

Just as she was talking, she saw the nanny beside Concubine Hui coming over in a hurry. Seeing that Master Ba was still there, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Master Ba, the concubine said, 'Husband and wife are one body, and if one suffers, both will suffer, and the other will prosper.

If you didn't take good care of it before, what's the use of being anxious when something happens. Don't forget, the most leisurely person in the court is the censor.'"

After saying that, without waiting for Master Ba to speak, he turned around and went back.

He Zhuo loosened his hold on Master Ba's hand and said, "Sir, the concubine is right." After all, she has been in the palace for her whole life. At this time, she was impeached by the censor for not repairing the inner curtains. It was really not a crime.

I don’t know how many people want to stir up trouble between the Eighth Master and the Emperor for various purposes. Don’t let anyone take advantage of this.

Master Ba held the carriage and finally turned around and came back. Then he told the butler, "The concubine loves to eat the vegetarian snacks from Bazhen Pavilion. I will buy some for the concubine early tomorrow."

He Zhuo breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he could still listen to Jin's advice.

He didn't go out, and the eighth master didn't go back to the courtyard. He only went to the study, and this time He Zhuo didn't dissuade him. It was really time for Ba Fujin to cool off. She had to know that her honor and humiliation were all tied to the eighth master.

of.

Ba Fujin sent people to invite him three times, but he didn't come back. She was a little embarrassed in her heart. What she did today was indeed a bit too much. But wasn't there a reason? She carefully took out the sign for the request.

Put it away, if it weren't for this, I really wouldn't do that. This time Yinhu should be angry, but if it doesn't work, there is no harm in telling him about the signature request when he comes back tomorrow.

She originally thought that Yinhu would come back the next day, but she didn't expect that day after day, until the New Year, he had no intention of coming back. She even took the initiative to hand over the ladder and said that she would discuss the matter of entering the palace to celebrate the New Year.

I only sent the butler a gift note, and nothing else.

The couple didn't meet until New Year's greetings.

He got up in the middle of the night and rushed to the palace. In the dark, the eighth master still rode on the horse without looking back. When the servant came to report that Fujin had already got on the carriage, he raised his whip. Listening to the sound of the horse's hoofs,

Bafujin felt particularly uncomfortable.

When we arrived at the entrance of the palace, people were noisy and noisy waiting to enter the palace. Who is not bringing a family with him?

Even the Fourteenth has already given birth to his grandson. The other grandsons have their grandchildren all over the place. There are many people and cars, and it is very lively. The Fourth Master is very relaxed towards the people below, and Lin Yutong has always been kind. This is the New Year's Day.

It was a rare day when I could bring my children into the palace to see the world, and I brought out everything I could. Of course, this old man was also very sad. I thought that this palace was their home back then, but now my children and grandchildren want to

When you come in, you have to choose a day.

The third master was not in a hurry to go in. He asked someone to inquire. He didn't dare to go in first before seeing anyone from Prince Zhijun's palace. So he waited aside. He didn't even go in, and the other brothers didn't dare to go in.

Therefore, more people gathered outside.

The third master showed off to the fifth master, "It's annoying to have too many grandchildren. My head has been buzzing all morning."

The fifth master said, "That's the good thing about having more granddaughters. They are considerate! I can squeeze my shoulders and beat my legs on the carriage and I don't feel tired all the way."

Master Qi, hehe, my grandson is still young, so he didn’t take him with him for fear of making a fuss.

As the three of them spoke, they all secretly glanced at Master Ba. Except for Fujin, this one was all pretty good.

Can Mr. Ba not feel sour?

It’s so sour! In the past, when people showed off their sons, I didn’t have them, so I was too late to catch up. Now that people are showing off their grandchildren, I have even lost my son and daughter.

It's strange that his face looks so good.

The Third Master was a bit mean-spirited, so he added, "I really envy you, I'm so relaxed. You don't have to worry about these careless things."

Master Shi turned his face and really couldn't listen to it. But he didn't blame others for talking nonsense. Lao Ba didn't do it justice. He sent his daughter to the palace as an adopted daughter. I didn't know whether these brothers would send her or not.

I am just a daughter, and I still hope to finish my errands and find a good marriage for my daughter to stay in the capital so that I can take care of her. Now it’s better! You are the most benevolent and righteous man, and you know how to share the worries of the saint. No matter how inferior a daughter is to a son, she is still a flesh and blood.

.Besides, the number of girls in his family is different from that in Brother Jiu’s family. Brother Jiu’s family has many girls, so giving two of them is not enough. Is this something he can compare with?

Fortunately, Master Jiu didn't know what his tenth brother was thinking. If he wanted to know, he would have to criticize him: What's wrong with having so many daughters? There's no need to have too many daughters.

The situation outside the palace was immediately known to the palace. Lin Yutong got up early and waited for no one. These people did not come in at the palace gate. "Who are you waiting for?"

Prince Zhi probably didn't take it so seriously.

Fourth Master yawned, "Zhengjiazhuang is a bit far..."

Lin Yutong stared at him, "Prince Li is coming this year?"

"Yes!" Fourth Master used the cold handkerchief to wake up his head, "I told you I'd be here soon."

"I told you I'd be here soon." Prince Zhi's carriage was parked in a remote alley, and the lanterns were all blown out. It was impossible for others to know that he was quietly waiting here with his family and his cat.

It was cold in the middle of the night, and the carriage was not necessarily very warm. He couldn't help complaining, "I really think I am the prince."

After waiting for another quarter of an hour, it slowly became quiet outside.

Prince Zhi laughed in the car, he must have been the second child. He startled these younger brothers who had turned from bad birds into old bad birds.

Doesn't it scare people?

Fourteen almost fell off his horse in shock.

Hongming stretched out his hand to help his Ama, and asked in surprise, "What are you afraid of? It's the second uncle!"

It's your second uncle that I'm afraid of! When the prince was deposed, he followed Lao Ba very hard.

Now that I have met this old brother, I don't know why, but I feel a little timid.

These old brothers got off their horses one by one, took their sons with them, quietly stepped back, and made way for them. Unexpectedly, the carriage of Prince Li's Palace stopped when it was about to enter the palace gate.

.Then some eunuchs ran out of the team and got into the darkness. Everyone was wondering what was going on when they saw a team of carriages and horses coming out of the alley. The lanterns also lit up, and the word 'Zhi' was written brightly on them.

No need to ask, it must be Prince Zhi who is coming.

Everyone was waiting for Prince Zhi, but they didn't expect that he had arrived early and didn't show his face. Now he did, but he didn't stop. He passed by Prince Li's car quite arrogantly. They waited for Prince Zhi's mansion to pass by.

, I left the Prince Li's Mansion, and then the third master and the fifth master passed by one by one.

The palace entrance became orderly again.

After getting off the carriage, the man went to Taihe Palace, while the woman took the child to Cining Palace and Changchun Palace. No matter which direction you go, there is still a long way to go.

Lin Yutong sent away the shoulder carriage, and these old sisters-in-law had to go in.

The fourth master sent a sedan chair to pick up the brothers.

Prince Zhi got on the sedan chair first and looked back at the second son who was staggering over. Prince Li also saw Prince Zhi and waved his hand to tell him to wait. Then when he got to the sedan chair, Prince Li stretched out his hand.

"...You should give me a hand! What a joke."

Prince Zhi sneered, "You, me, who am I? Can calling me big brother make it difficult for you to die?" He said this, but in the end he got up and just stood on the sedan chair and leaned down to look down.

Prince Li sneered back at him, "It's hard for me! It's hard for me to die." Then when he saw that he didn't reach out, he took the initiative to pull the hem of Prince Zhi's clothes up, and the waiter insisted on helping him but refused to let him go.

.

Prince Zhi almost didn't get pulled down. He said "hey", raised his hand and hit Prince Li's hand. Prince Li hissed, and as soon as his hand loosened, he fell down. Prince Zhi
