Chapter 128: Understand the Heart and See the Nature
I went back to the house and had two granddaughters and one granddaughter to accompany the old concubine for breakfast.
The old concubine sat in the middle and pulled Baoru beside her and pointed to a plate of lotus root powder and osmanthus candy cake and said, "This is what you like to eat. I specifically told her to make it in the kitchen. I will try it, but it is still suitable for the taste?"
Baoru has been afraid of sweet mouth because of toothache. Some days, since the old concubine gave it specially, it was difficult to refuse, so she took a piece of it. The sweet osmanthus glutinous rice sticky, and the crispy lotus root slices in the middle are very delicious.
The old lady's dim sum in the kitchen has been very good for so many years, but it's too sweet.
Yin Yuqing also held a piece of cake and said, "Yesterday, I just said that the cheese my father brought back to Sunan was delicious, but unfortunately I finished it. Seeing that there were even less sources, I had to send someone to my house to pick it up, so I advised me, why bother? My father will have his birthday for fifty years. We will go back tomorrow, so why not wait until we go before eating?
Now, he has not had a rest since he was called back to Dali Temple. Tomorrow, he will take a day off and accompany me to my parents' home to celebrate my father's birthday."
The old concubine smiled and said, "Go and go. Your father rarely returns to Beijing to report his duties. It is the fiftieth birthday. It is your duty to go back and respect filial piety."
Duke Yin Jiye of Qi and Li Daimao of Li Damao have been disliked by each other since he remembered.
A civil servant and a military general. When the late emperor was still alive, Li Daimao even slapped Yin Jiye in the face because Yin Jiye was wearing a sword and did not get off his horse in front of Tai Chi.
It was not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. After going to war with the Turks, Yin Jiye held his own troops and was in great power, so the two of them were even more inconsistent. It was not until the princess and Fan that Yin Jiye recommended Li Youyou to protect Yourong, and then married the pearl in his hand to Li Shaoyuan who was paralyzed in bed, the imperial minister and the chief official of the border, which was considered to be reconciled.
For this reason, Yin Yuqing was even more arrogant and comfortable than Li Yourong in Prince Rong's mansion. There was such a father who even Li Daimao had to give her three points of thin air in this mansion.
She took a bite of the osmanthus candy cake, put the remaining half on the plate, curled her lips and said, "It's time to beat these chefs in my grandmother's kitchen. It's so sweet that it's so sweet that I want to kill the candy seller?"
When people are young, their tongues are numb when they are old, so they naturally have to have a stronger taste in their food.
The old concubine tasted it, but she couldn't taste the sweetness. Her face was dim and she turned to look at Baoru: "Baoru also thinks it's so sweet?"
Bao Ru smiled and ate the whole piece of cake: "I don't think so."
Yin Yuqing chuckled: "She? She is the one who beats the child and drills the candy inside. It would be strange if she knows whether it is sweet or not."
Yin Yuqing stood up and smiled and said, "Second sister-in-law, my father's fifty birthday later. If my mother is not here in our mansion, you are the eldest daughter-in-law. Should you go with me, or wait for the day to go to worship in the morning?"
Yin Jiye, Duke of Qi, was respectful to his troops on the border, and it was precisely because of his fifty birthday. Every year, the powerful people in Chang'an City had to spend all the rare and foreign objects in the world to celebrate his birthday. He didn't know who went there, what he gave, but who didn't go there and didn't give anything. Yin Jiye knew that a good dog under his command was Yin Yuzhao, and he would definitely bit him to damage his vitality within one year.
So even the major royal palaces racked their brains for Yin Jiye's fiftieth birthday, and the princes must have gone there in person.
Baoru Chuchu first entered the mansion. Although Ji Mingde promised her to stay in the mansion for only three months, there was a fear of another fight between her and Yin Yuqing within these three months.
She smiled and said, "What do grandmother say."
She wanted to try the attitude of the old concubine. After all, the old concubine invited her into the mansion at the beginning. She invited her granddaughter-in and asked someone to bully her. I'm afraid it would be a bad thing.
When people get old, they live with their son's face. The court has to rely on Yin Jiye, so the old concubine naturally has to give Yin Yuqing a face. The words are in a discussion tone: "Baoru has a good plan, and the account in my room has not been calculated for a few years. Tomorrow and the next two days, I want her to register for me, and let your father's birthday party, let Yourong go on behalf of his grandmother, how about it?"
Yin Yuqing was confused. In fact, she didn't know the complexity of the government, and even more so that she didn't know the secrets. But she was accustomed to bullying her. Today, she finally raised her head and saw that Baoru and the old concubine were both rustling. She smiled in her heart and said, "I'm just talking about it. My second sister-in-law has worked hard. I remember learning the skills of abacus to marry Shaoyuan.
At that time, Shaoyuan put rulers on your hands in order to force you to learn abacus, right?"
He poked people's pain in the early morning, and Bao Ru smiled and said, "The princess said this incorrectly. There is a saying in Buddhism that is to understand the mind and see the nature. Whether it is abacus or reading and literacy, they are all learned to enrich themselves.
To give a good example, I have read books, so I know that when talking to others, we should recommend the strengths and discern the weaknesses. However, the princess never read books, so he compared the eldest sister-in-law with her husband in person, and there was no shame on his face.
This is exactly the difference between reading and not reading, learning and not learning.”
It is indeed a bit too much to make fun of the eldest sister-in-law with the old story of her husband.
Yin Yuqing was born in a military general family and studied only for makeup. He listened to Baoru's long-term discussion. After all, he ignored him and was angry. He didn't know how to refute him. He said, "On the day I got married, I said that I had little literacy and could not speak well, for fear of getting disgusted by my parents-in-law. My mother said at that time that studying was a man's business.
It is to manage the family. Just have a good housekeeper. A woman should keep her thin hands well. Why bother to practice stitching and plan? That is what women from inferior families do only because of their livelihood.”
Li Yourong was quite embarrassed and whispered: "Second sister-in-law, my mother's abacus is very good, so you can't say such things."
After Yin Yuqing learned that Ji Mingde was Li Daimao's eldest son, he saved up a lot of days. After Baoru entered the mansion, he returned all the humiliation he had suffered back to Baoru, and asked Baoru to know that he was now in the palace and his husband loved him and that he could not live a better life.
Knowing that she had said the wrong thing, she said, "My second sister-in-law must have been too hard to learn abacus back then. She suddenly failed to get married and became angry. She would poison her servants thousands of miles away and harm Shaoyuan."
Baoru is still on the blame for the Qianli poisoning.
She put down the porridge bowl, saw the old concubine looking at her with a solemn look, and smiled and said, "Criminal Princess, everyone in Chang'an City knew about the engagement between me and the prince, and there was no embarrassment.
I sent a letter to the prince on a thousand miles away. Since I entered the mansion, I didn’t plan to blame him. If you don’t ask me to tell the prince, I will take it out. If we are a couple in person, I will know everything?"
In fact, Li Shaoyuan had already asked Li Shaoyuan to coax away. But after receiving the letter, Li Shaoyuan never made a fuss and said nothing. It was obvious that Gu's top secret was missed.
Thinking of this, Yin Yuqing smiled and said, "It's just right. Tonight I'll ask Shaoyuan to bring the letter to my second sister-in-law. Otherwise, my second sister-in-law will always say that she is wronged. If it's not me, it will become mine."
After she said that, she took her girls away.
The old concubine sighed softly and said, "Baoru, Shaoyuan was paralyzed in bed for more than a year. For a young man who was in Qingmao, you don't know what that means. I have read that letter, and it's really your handwriting.
You and Shaoyuan have both become families, and harmony is the most important thing in the family. I can’t forget it if I see this matter. Don’t read that letter. Is that good enough?”
Baoru smiled and said softly: "Grandmother. Although harmony is the most important thing in a house, harmony between home is not a mixed relationship. If everyone has grudges in their hearts and dissatisfaction with their faces, sooner or later, will the thorn be stabbed to the head and blood flow?
I must be more serious about this."
After entering Prince Rong's mansion, I must take advantage of these three months to clean up the grievances.
As for whether to offend Yin Yuqing or not. Others in Prince Rong's house were afraid of Yin Yuqing and wanted to spoil him. Baoru had never used any habits to beat the child, and of course he would not tolerate it now.
The young emperor Li Shaoling only ordered a court in the morning. He just waited for the civil and military officials to pay homage to the morning, and the two eunuchs and the imperial guards would escort him back to Yanzheng Palace.
The child, who is only ten years old, has a particularly big eyes, which looks a bit like Li Shaoyu, but is not like a scoundrel like Li Shaoyu.
He pointed to the eunuch who brought the ancestral son in the distance and smiled, "I heard from my second uncle that my second brother was once the Jieyuan of Qinzhou and married my sister Baoru. Now, no matter how far you are, it will be a great blessing for my Great Wei imperial court."
The words are spoken without any leakage. When I speak, I look at each other with my eyes fixedly. I am a little rigid and not like an eleven-year-old child.
When Ji Mingde saw that the servant came to serve the cushion, he stood up and bowed three times and nine times.
After the ceremony, he followed the little emperor out of Jiaotai Hall and walked between the corridors.
Li Shaoling asked about the situation between Tufan and Qinzhou. When Ji Mingde talked about the friction on the border, he frowned, and clenched his two small fists and said hatefully: "Obviously, one of my sisters and Fan cannot solve the problem of Tufan once and for all. I only regret that I am weak and cannot carry a gun to fight against the barbarians like Tufan."
