Chapter 562 Lovesickness, Bad Taste
Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai's departure had no effect on the Yan family. They would do whatever they should do. Daohua and Yan Zhigao, who only knew the truth, and Mrs. Li and Yan Zhiqiang occasionally showed a worried look.
In a blink of an eye, March has entered.
By March, the temperature gradually began to rise, people began to change into thin and beautiful dresses, and the number of gatherings at various families began to increase.
Just when Yan Yihuan, Yan Yishuang and Yan Yile were happy to follow Mrs. Li to visit, Daohua hid in her yard.
Since Xiao Yeyang and her two brothers left, she has often felt depressed and uncomfortable. She doesn't want to move and is too lazy to move. As long as she has time, she can't help but wonder where they are now and whether the road is smooth.
One day, Daohua trained seven little hunting dogs as usual, but after the training, Xiaoyi and Xiaoer felt bored, so they handed the little hunting dog to Bishi, then went back to the house and lay on the imperial chaise longue, picked up the new verb book and started reading it. But after reading a few pages, they felt even more bored, so they threw the verb book aside, lay on the chair, closed their eyes and took a nap.
Looking at the lazy and uninterested rice flowers, Guyu and Lixia were both a little worried.
Guyu: "Is this a girl suffering from spring fatigue?"
Lixia frowned: "But the girl seemed to have never been like this in the past few years."
The two looked at Wang Man'er at the same time, Gu Yu: "Sister Man'er, do you know what's wrong with the girl?"
Wang Man'er glanced at her girl, what could it be wrong? She's having sex with her.
The girl's reaction was exactly the same as when Xiaoliu Brother went to the capital. At first, she didn't understand why, but later one time she went to the kitchen to get food. The woman in charge saw that she was absent-minded, so she joked and asked her if she had a lovesickness disease, and she realized that she was sick.
Fortunately, in February, Xiaoliu brother sent a letter to the girl and wrote a letter to her. After reading the letter, she gradually improved.
She thought that when the little prince came back, her girl would be better naturally.
"Miss is fine, it will be fine in a while. Go and do your business. I can remind you that girls are most likely to lose their temper at this time. Don't get together and mess with girls, let her punish you."
Hearing this, Guyu and Lixia quickly dispersed.
Daohua lay on the imperial chaise long afternoon in a daze. She went to Songheyuan to spend lunch with Mrs. Yan and then came back to lie down.
After lying for a while, I felt that it was not possible to keep this. I had to find something to do to distract myself, so I asked Wang Man'er to take over the account books of various farms.
"The ten thousand acres of land we have newly obtained have been planted, right?"
Wang Man'er nodded: "As soon as the village was obtained last year, Xiao Liu brother started preparing. Tenants, long-term workers and short-term workers were recruited early in the morning. So although the village was big, it did not delay the spring plowing this year."
Daohua nodded and looked at the account book carefully.
......
Capital, imperial palace.
Eunuch An looked up at the sky, then looked at the emperor who was still burying his head and criticizing the memorials. He took a deep breath and stepped forward and smiled, "Your Majesty, it's noon soon. This morning, the Queen Mother sent someone to pass the message, saying that she wanted to have lunch with the emperor."
After saying that, Eunuch An stood still without moving, looking at his nose and his heart.
"Sher~"
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Eunuch An felt that he heard a faint sneer.
Just when Eunuch An was about to bend his waist, the emperor put down his pen, looked up at Eunuch An, and stood up: "Set up the Cining Palace."
After saying that, he walked out strode out.
Eunuch An breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed.
Cining Palace.
The nanny looked at the sky and couldn't help asking, "Empress Dowager, should you start the meal?"
The old empress dowager sat like a meditation, closed her eyes, and quickly turned the Buddhist beads with her right hand, and said lightly: "The emperor hasn't arrived yet, wait."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the eunuch telling him that "the emperor has arrived."
The Empress Dowager opened her eyes instantly, and her expressionless face also became kind and kind. She looked at the emperor who walked into the hall and smiled and said, "The emperor is here, please pass on the meal."
The emperor stepped forward and saluted, then walked to the side calmly and sat down: "There are a lot of notes today. I'm late. I hope the Queen Mother will not blame me."
The Empress Dowager's eyes flashed when she listened to the emperor's name.
The Queen Mother, not the Queen Mother, is indeed not her own, or she is not well-raised.
The Empress Dowager smiled and shook her head: "What is the emperor saying? It means that the Ai family has delayed the emperor's official duties. It's just that you, my mother and I haven't seen each other for some time. The Ai family missed her so much that she asked the emperor to come and have lunch together."
Hearing these words, the emperor felt so frustrated, but he smiled and said, "It's because my son is unfilial, and he will definitely come to visit the Queen Mother more in the future."
At this time, the eunuch and the palace maid began to come in with plates of dishes.
After the arrangement was completed, the empress dowager signaled the emperor to take the chopsticks: "Try it quickly, this is what the Ai family specially ordered to make for you to see if it suits the taste?"
The emperor picked up the chopsticks with great confidence: "The food made in the Empress Dowager's harem is naturally delicious, and my sons are happy."
The Queen Mother immediately smiled and said, "If the Emperor likes to eat, then come and sit more often. I'll let the kitchen make it for you."
The emperor nodded: "Thank you, the Queen Mother."
After that, the emperor and the empress dowager were not talking, and they ate silently.
The emperor tasted a few dishes briefly, then put down his chopsticks, served tea and rinsed his mouth.
When the empress dowager saw it, she also put down her chopsticks. Seeing that the emperor was going to work hard, she didn't know anything, so she said straight to the point: "Have you heard that the emperor? Duke Ding Guo asked his eldest daughter-in-law to go to Zhongzhou, saying that Guo Kangyu was inconvenient to live in Ningmenguan alone."
The emperor was surprised: "Is that right?" and smiled, "It's understandable. Over the years, Guo Kangyu has helped me manage military affairs in Zhongzhou, Fenxi, and Jiguang. No one around him helps him manage internal affairs. Now, it's really inconvenient."
The Queen Mother looked at the Emperor: "They also went with their daughter."
The emperor smiled and said, "It's also right for my daughter to be with her parents."
Seeing that the emperor deliberately avoided her original intention, the empress dowager could only make it clear: "The Guo family's mother and daughter should not go to Zhongzhou sooner or later. But at this time, the emperor could not know what the Guo family was thinking, right?"
The emperor revealed his confusion: "I really don't know, so please help the empress dowager solve the doubts."
The empress dowager was angry and took a deep breath before speaking: "Your Majesty, don't forget that Ye Yang is still in Zhongzhou. Guo Kangyu's daughter is the same age as him. Isn't the purpose of going to Zhongzhou now very obvious?"
The Emperor: "It's not that, the Guo family's daughter will not have to worry about marriage."
The Empress Dowager sneered and thought to herself that it was the past. Since the Guo family rejected the Jiang family's proposal last year and had a feud with the Jiang family, which family dared to come to marry Guo Xueming?
Looking at the emperor who didn't care at all, the empress dowager said, "Emperor, do you still remember how ugly Guo Ruomei and Xiaojiu had made a fuss at the time, do you remember? Although the Guo family is Ye Yang's uncle's family, if Guo Xueming is asked to marry into the royal family, I would not agree."
The emperor was silent for a while: "Don't worry, Empress Dowager, I know what's going on."
Seeing that the emperor did not give a clear reply, the empress dowager was silent for a moment and said with a remorse: "Yeyang was alone in Zhongzhou these years, and there was no one around him to take care of him. I, a grandmother, are so irresponsible."
After saying that, he waved his hand to call a nanny and said to the emperor.
"This is Madam Jia, who has been serving the Ai family for more than ten years. She is the safest person. The Ai family wants her to go to Zhongzhou to take care of Yeyang. What does the emperor think?"
The emperor sneered in his heart. This was the real purpose of the empress dowager who came to him.
Raising Xiaojiu is not enough, and he still wants to control Ye Yang's life.
Too lazy to hear the empress dowager say something false, the emperor stood up and smiled and said, "The empress dowager is kind and caring about Ye Yang who is alone outside. How could I disagree?"
"I don't think that the Empress Dowager doesn't mention it. Speaking of which, I, as an uncle, don't seem to have done any responsibility. In this way, the Empress Dowager gave a nanny, and I will give one here too."
Upon hearing this, the smile on the Empress Dowager's face was a little stiff.
Before the empress dowager could say anything, the emperor said, "I still have official duties to work hard, so I started the business and took my leave."
The Queen Mother nodded with a stern smile.
When the emperor left, the empress dowager's face suddenly darkened. Madam Jia, who was accused of going to Zhongzhou, said worriedly: "Empress dowager, if the emperor is also going, I will probably not be able to match the little prince and Miss Wanying so easily."
The Empress Dowager quickly turned the Buddhist beads, and after a while, she said: "You go and act according to the opportunity, just one point, don't let Yeyang and Guo Xueming get too close." Only the son of the prince who has no support can be controlled.
Madam Jia nodded immediately. Everyone loves face and reputation, so she can still do this.
On the other side, the emperor has returned to Qianqing Palace.
Thinking of the Empress Dowager's special task today, the emperor sitting on the dragon throne showed a hint of ridicule.
The Empress Dowager wanted the Empress to raise Map's son in exchange for this and specially promoted the Ma family to straighten the Concubine Ma in Xiaojiu Mansion.
During this period, he often went to Mapin's palace, which helped Mapin's arrogance. In addition, the Ma family produced a prince and a nephew who was most likely to inherit the title of prince in the future. Mapin's confidence was enough and often went to the queen's harem to see his son. He went there more and more times and stayed longer and longer.
How can the Jiang family tolerate such a thing?
Sure enough, it was not long before the Empress Dowager could not sit still.
Sending people to Zhongzhou was nothing more than trying to control Ye Yang in order to suppress the Ma family at any time.
The empress dowager still hasn't changed. She is so old that she still can't tolerate anyone else's rebellion. As long as she notices it, she will immediately whip and suppress it.
And the Guo family...
The emperor narrowed his eyes, and the Guo family was afraid that the empress dowager would really hit the point. Thinking of his increasingly outstanding nephew, the emperor waved to Eunuch An.
Eunuch An immediately trotted over: "Emperor."
The Emperor: "The Empress Dowager sent the nanny from the palace to take care of Yeyang. I will give you one here, so you can choose a more powerful one."
Eunuch An nodded and was about to step down when he heard the emperor say again.
"The one on the Empress Dowager's side is called Madam Jia, and the one on our side is called Madam Zhen."
The fat on Eunuch An's face twitched instantly.
Fake nanny...
Real nanny...
