Chapter 33(1/2)
The weather in April is getting brighter day by day, especially today. The sun is warm and the sky is blue without a single white cloud.
The streets of Chang'an are still busy with traffic, but the major teahouses are a little restless.
A carriage drove quickly and stopped in front of the Yuanwai Mansion. A man in luxurious clothes stepped on a stool and walked into the mansion in a somewhat anxious pace.
Qin Yu has been lying at home for almost half a month.
But as the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break the muscles and bones, and he broke two ribs. It's been half a month, and the pain is still so painful that he can't sleep every night.
When Qin Zhi came in, he was looking at the curtain above his head and cursing his mother.
Damn Wang You, this injury was not his fault. He wrote the word Qin Yu upside down!
"You still have the nerve to scold you?" Qin Zhi came in angrily, "How did I explain to you in the first place? I asked you to make friends with Wang You, not to ask you to enmity with him! It's better for you to just do it yourself. Now his mother has taken control of you.
Bring it with you too!”
Qin Yu reluctantly raised his head half way up: "Brother, are you sure? Are you really the heir apparent of the Duke's residence?"
"What kind of noodles are you going to eat?" Wen Ning frowned and stood up, "I'm not hungry today, so I won't eat anything. Brother, let's go back to our yard to eat."
Wen Ning didn't want to but asked herself: "Brother, is there anything new happening outside recently?"
Wen Lan frowned and thought, suppressing all the words and emotions.
Unexpectedly, Wen Ning's focus did not seem to be "Wang You is actually the prince of the Duke's Palace", but she was surprised and asked: "You shed blood today to recognize your relatives?"
Dry weather?
I'm just afraid I'm in a dry mood.
Qin Yu grinned when he slapped him with a fan. He was just a fool. Over the years, he knew who he could provoke and who he couldn't, but he didn't think so much about why he could and couldn't be provoked.
She told herself not to interfere, but subconsciously, she was still thinking about whether she could change the matter. She couldn't tell Pei You directly, which would make him suspicious, and she couldn't ask her brothers for help, because they might think she was
baffling.
Wen Ning is bored.
Wen Ning didn't wait for Wen Lan to leave, went straight into the inner room, took off her embroidered shoes, and lay down on the bed.
The smell of gunpowder in these words made me want to heat up the herbal tea, and I also said that I felt at ease...
Seeing Wen Lan coming over, his eyes lit up: "Brother, are you off duty so early today?"
Even if she was interested in having a concubine with Wang Youlang, once he became the eldest son of the Duke's palace, how could he make the final decision on the marriage?
I can't read the book, and playing chess alone is not interesting. Practicing calligraphy requires meditating.
Wen Lan was stunned for a moment, and Wen Ning said again: "I mean this is the royal bloodline. Doesn't it mean that the person's teeth have not been found, and how he ended up in Lingnan has not been found out? Just shed blood to recognize relatives, and to recognize ancestors and return to the clan.
Already?"
Wen Lan deliberately didn't mention it and said, "Ah Ning, is she bored at home? Will my brother play chess with you?"
But she had no power to change the fire.
She was considering whether to call the doctor and give her some prescriptions to soothe her nerves.
Wen Ning didn't hear his words at all, and only thought about "recognizing the ancestors and returning to the clan in three days" in her mind.
Wen Ning turned left and right on the bed again like a pancake, the past and present lives were constantly torn in her mind. She never thought about whether the woman's words were true in her previous life, but in this life she was actually wondering, is Pei You really so cruel?
Finally she couldn't bear it and sat up.
A bad thing... I have to cancel the kiss again.
I'm afraid it's not appropriate to talk about this with Wen Ning at this time.
She didn't say much to Wen Ning and turned around and left Shanti Courtyard.
Fortunately, Qin Yu only beat his servant that day at Yunting Tower, and he came back afterwards. At the banquet in Qionglin that day, he only had a verbal conflict with him, otherwise he would be married to Liang Zi of the Duke's Mansion in the future.
It’s settled!
"Brother, hasn't he not even been awarded an official title yet? What are we afraid of?" Qin Yu muttered stiffly.
She was born without her mother. She had never seen her mother, but in her imagination, her mother should be like that.
At this moment, Linglan came in: "Master, girl, I just went to the kitchen and saw the delicious pigeon soup stewed. How about I ask the kitchen to use the soup to cook two bowls of noodles tonight?"
"Linglan." Wen Ning shouted.
Wen Lan didn't want to say this, because he was worried that Wen Ning would be unhappy if he heard it.
She couldn't tell whether it was because she was confused and didn't know where things would go that made her more anxious, or because knowing that things would happen in three days made her more uneasy, and all she could think about was "there are still three days."
But that’s Pei You’s mother!
How could it be such a coincidence that the person I had been looking for for more than ten years was right in front of me.
"Is eldest brother gone?" Wen Ning asked.
Linglan curled her lips dejectedly, with words written all over her face: "This is what girls are like these days."
Linglan hurriedly knelt down and said, "Girl, lately...she said the weather has been dry, so she wanted to drink some cold tea."
In the past, Wen Lan would call him "Prince Gongzi" or "Shu Zhi", but now he can no longer do so.
Even though I had decided not to care about this matter, I still couldn't help but inquire and make plans.
"Today's blood recognition is just a formality! This matter has made a big fuss. If it was not 100% sure, how could the Duke's government allow it to be known throughout the city! Today's blood recognition is even a formality.
Your Majesty has already gone to the Duke's Mansion, how can there be any mistakes in this matter?!"
As soon as Wen Ning listened to the soup and cooked the noodles, the gentle lady smiling that day came to mind.
Why put a hot face on a cold butt? If you can't get it, don't talk about it, it will be embarrassing.
Qin Zhi's hand holding the fan wanted to break the paper fan.
"Open whatever you want, I feel very at peace." Wen Ning turned her head and poured herself a cup of herbal tea, "Don't forget, we just made five thousand taels of silver a while ago! Such a good thing, I feel so good in my heart
What are you so anxious about?!"
She went to the east chamber, Wen Lan's yard, and asked Wen Lan to talk about some interesting things outside. The girl would always feel better.
"How about I apologize to him after I recover from my injuries?" Qin Yu called him brave, and he had absolutely no scruples. He was willing to be cowardly even if he was called cowardly.
How painful it is.
Gentle and kind, he often looked at her with a smile.
It's probably because he is a more senior official than his uncle.
But I still found a way for her.
Wen Lan happened to be on duty, and he had a lot of things to say and emotions in his heart that had nowhere to talk about. As soon as Linglan went over to say the words, he washed his hands and went to Shanti Courtyard.
Qin Zhi walked slowly around the room for a few steps with his hands behind his back. He calmed down and said slowly, "It's not in a hurry."
No matter what Pei You did in her previous life, she was not such a hard-hearted person in this life.
"Oh..." Wen Ning lowered her eyes and rubbed the tea cup under her hand.
It would have been a good thing if Qin Yu could have a good relationship with Wang You before, but when he was still a commoner, he was aloof and aloof and did not want to cling to them. Now when he returned to the Duke's Mansion, wouldn't he have to be even more aloof?
Linglan felt that this kind of heart disease still needs heart medicine.
Wen Ning didn't answer his words and thought to herself: "I heard from a few servants a while ago that something big happened to our number one scholar?"
Depressed.
But she was just angry.
Wen Lan didn't say any more, but he thought Wen Ning should understand.
A method that will not arouse suspicion and has a high probability of success.
So she didn't remember the specific time, only a rough idea.
Although she was reborn, she was just a weak woman in a boudoir.
She gave up.
Wen Lan didn't expect Wen Ning's sudden change of expression, and drove away the guest directly, turning to look at Ling Lan.
So what about the eldest son of the Duke's mansion? What about the eldest princess's legitimate son? Whose surname is Pei or Chu?
Linglan watched her go back again, looking like she had after her serious illness a while ago. When she was awake, she kept walking, pacing back and forth, and when she slept, she tossed and turned, looking like she couldn't sleep well.
Wen Lan clicked his tongue and said: "The eldest princess has been looking for him for nineteen years, how can she wait for so long? You don't know, when I heard that the eldest princess followed the number one scholar back to the prince's house that night at the Qionglin Night Banquet, I'm afraid she wished she could have waited for him that night.
Take this kiss back."
Wen Lan came in a hurry, poured himself a cup of tea and poured it into his mouth when he entered the door. He frowned and said, "Why does A Ning drink cold tea?"
Linglan hurriedly entered the back room.
Wen Lan knew that he couldn't escape, so he sighed and told Wen Ning the whole story, and then said: "Today, the Duke's palace shed blood to recognize relatives, and all the saints have gone. It turns out that he is really the eldest princess's direct bloodline."
The eldest princess held the champion man in her arms and cried almost fainting. Your Majesty issued an imperial edict that the champion man should change his surname back to Pei and return it to the family tree. Three days later, he would sacrifice his ancestors and recognize his ancestors and return to the clan."
There are really many wonders in this world.
