Despite Xu Lingyi's repeated assurances, they could not dispel the Queen Mother's determination. In the end, everyone had no choice but to have Xu Lingyi personally deliver the sign and invite the Queen Mother to the palace.

Neither the inner palace nor the Cining Palace dared to neglect the sign handed in at noon. Within an hour, Eunuch Lei personally led two chamberlains in sixth-grade clothes to pick up Mrs. Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang.

He accompanied the wife into the palace.

Mr. Sun Laohou suddenly came to visit.

After entering the palace, the old man was a little disappointed.

There was a fuss in the fifth room last night for most of the night, and everyone had some guesses as to the purpose of Mr. Sun's visit.

Manager Bai respectfully invited Mr. Sun to sit in the outer study: he has been gone for almost an hour and should be back soon. There are rules in the palace. Only meals are served but not lunch. The afternoon meal is served by each palace in the small kitchen.

Make some snacks to pad your stomach. In this case, there is no need to leave food. In addition, the palace is about to fall, and you should leave the palace at a hundred o'clock.

Mr. Sun looked at the sky and went to the study with Mr. Bai.

Xu Sishen rushed over immediately.

Grandfather, you are here. He hurriedly saluted Mr. Sun, and said hurriedly, "I want to go to Guizhou with my sixth brother. He is only one year older than me. Now he is the commander-in-chief of Guizhou, Uncle Wu Jin. I can no longer

He's just hanging around at home like this. In the past, he couldn't beat me in archery.

When Manager Bai heard this, he immediately stepped back quietly and helped the grandfather and grandson to close the door.

You are the eldest son, so you can be kind to me in the future. Your father is not as good as your fourth uncle during the time of the late emperor. He has done meritorious service in battles. Now, he has done meritorious service in recommending Gong Dongning. What will your brother do in the future? The old Marquis asked Xu Sishen gently.

His grandfather, who had always supported him, sided with his mother this time, and Xu Sishe was surprised.

He couldn't help but lower his head and think.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Xu Sishen's expression gradually became depressed.

Mr. Sun Laohou saw this and couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.

This time he miscalculated.

He knew Xu Lingyi's intention of sending Xu Sijin to Guizhou. He had originally planned to send Xu Sishe there later, but when he saw Xu Sishe's childish face, he felt soft when he thought that he only had this one daughter, and his daughter only had two sons.

, I thought it would be better to wait a few years. Xu Sijin had established a firm foothold in the military camp. Xu Sishe was older and had learned martial arts better. It would not be too late to leave.

Who knew that just this hesitation would lead to earth-shaking changes.

First, within two rounds of his godson's march south, Fan Weigang was defeated and Xuantong City was defeated; Ouyang Ming was ordered to do so at the critical moment, but was seriously injured and fell into coma; the emperor changed his generals before the battle, and transferred Gong Dongning to become the commander; the emperor wanted to save Ouyang Ming's life and leave 20,000 troops behind.

He was asked to chase Duoyan to pick up a military merit, but was ambushed by Duoyan; Xu Sijin, who followed Ouyang Ming out to wave the flag and shout, was not afraid of tigers, so he called three thousand guards of Yulin Guard to chase Duoyan. The commander of Yulin Guard made Geng Geng

Wonderful, he actually handed over the troops to Xu Sijin like this. The development of the situation was dizzying. Before he could make arrangements, the news came that Xu Sijin had captured Duoyan alive.

As a result, Xu Sijin made Wu Jinbo, and Ouyang Ming, whom the emperor wanted to help up, was exiled by his whole family.

If I had known this, I would have been so cruel and sent Brother Shen to Guizhou.

Xu Sishen didn't think that much.

The same words came from the mouth of his maternal grandfather who once lived in a temple and guided the country, which was more convincing to him than the words of his mother who only knew how to dote on her younger brother.

If someone needs to make concessions, it can only be him as the older brother.

Grandfather, he raised his head and looked at Old Marquis Sun resolutely. I will stay at home and let my younger brother follow Sixth Brother to Guizhou.

At times like this, he still looked at his younger brother, Mr. Sun Laohou, and nodded with joy.

A woman's cry came from the door.

The two looked around and saw the fifth lady standing there wiping tears.

Mother Xu Sishen hurriedly walked over and took out the handkerchief and gave it to the fifth lady. I was wrong. Please stop crying.

The fifth lady cried even more sadly as she listened.

The palms of the hands are full of sincerity. She is younger, and she pays more attention to it. It does not mean that she does not care about her eldest son. The eldest son has always been more open and capable than the younger son. Now let the eldest son give up his bright future to the younger son.

, why doesn’t she feel uncomfortable?

Okay, okay, don't cry. Mr. Sun Lao Hou smiled and said, I will discuss this matter with Yongping Hou, just wait for the news.

With my father coming forward, everything will naturally be arranged properly.

The fifth lady choked and nodded.

Manager Bai reported through the curtain: The old Marquis, the fifth lady, the seventh young master, the dowager and the fourth wife of the Marquis are back.

The Fifth Madam hurriedly stuffed the handkerchief into her sleeve: Dad, please sit here for a while, Brother Shen and I will go to greet Madam Tai.

Mr. Sun Laohou said yes, and the fifth lady went to Chuihuā gate, and Xu Sishen went to the main gate.

The second lady and Jiang's Yingniang were already waiting in front of Chuihuā gate.

I don’t know what the Queen Mother and my mother said, but the fifth lady smiled and chatted with the second lady.

Everything has its pros and cons. The second lady said calmly, even if the emperor does not agree, after two or three years, we can use this as an excuse to transfer brother Jin back to Yanjing, which may not be a good thing

.The emperor can't let people cut off his heirs. She looked determined, and it was obvious that she didn't take this matter to heart.

The fifth lady couldn't help but smile after hearing this: Second sister-in-law is still thinking far ahead, we are not as far-sighted as second sister-in-law. But she thought in her heart, what if the emperor doesn't let her be transferred back when the time comes? I heard that those who serve as general soldiers, than

Being a county magistrate and prefect in Jiangnan is still fat, what should I do if Brother Jin doesn’t want to be transferred back?

These words were just a thought, but Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but glance at the second lady, feeling greatly admired.

While each was thinking about it, Madam Tai's carriage stopped in front of Chuihuā Gate. Eleven Niang got out of the carriage first, and then helped Madam Tai to get out of the carriage.

Everyone's eyes narrowed when they saw the lady smiling so hard. After entering the palace, not only did they not feel tired at all, but they were full of energy and their faces were glowing. It was obviously a worthwhile trip.

Everyone showed smiles and surrounded Mrs. Tai as she entered the Chui Hua Gate.

I really didn’t expect that even Concubine Song would have the idea of ​​our Brother Jin. Back in the house, Concubine Song was being served by the second lady to change clothes, and she was talking quite proudly to the fifth concubine Jiang Shiying and others.

When entering the palace, the Queen Mother winked at her, but she didn't even want to leave. She sat there and insisted on the Eleventh Mother to tell her something. If the Queen Mother hadn't told her to leave first, I'm afraid it would have been delayed for a while before we could leave.

palace.

The Fifth Concubine of the Song Dynasty looked at the Eleventh Mother for confirmation, but the Second Lady said, "She is the biological mother of the Eighth Prince, right? I heard that the Song family was originally a minor official in Pengcheng. Because her daughter was beautiful and favored in the palace, she was given the title of Pengcheng Commander.

.I’m afraid it’s not appropriate. She said and her eyes fell on Eleven Niang.

The Eleventh Mother could only smile bitterly: The Empress personally escorted us out of Cining Palace. When we knelt down to say goodbye, the Empress told me to visit the Zhou family more often when I had time. Mrs. Zhou came into the palace a few days ago to talk about a few things.

Regarding my cousin’s marriage, I also mentioned that I haven’t visited Zhou’s house for some days.

Some things can only be understood but not explained.

The second lady and the fifth lady were both stunned.

However, the wife waved her hand disapprovingly: There is no need to worry, anyway, the special purpose will not come until after the New Year. In these days, we will choose a marriage for brother Jin and leave. As the wife said, there was a longing expression on her face, and she arrived.

When the time comes, I will ask the Queen Mother to marry Brother Jin. We will arrange Brother Jin’s wedding in a lively manner. Maybe I can have a great-grandchild again during the Chinese New Year next year.

I haven’t even written these horoscopes before I started talking about my great-grandson.

Eleven Niang was a little bit dumbfounded.

The madam turned around and asked the second madam: Do you want me to dress up two new clothes? Then I can go with Eleven Niang to marry Brother Jin.

Of course, I asked the Second Madam to coax the Madam. You have passed more bridges than we have walked. Brother Jin’s marriage will be a success with your help.

I think so too. The Tai Furen nodded immodestly and said, I have thought about it. Song Taifei is definitely not good, and the Zhou family is not good either. There is a queen in the middle. How can the two of them live a life without their upper lips touching?

When it comes to lips, if the daughter of the Zhou family relies on this marriage to be facilitated by the queen, wouldn’t our brother Jin be at a disadvantage? Madam Tai stroked her head, I have to think about this matter carefully.

Seeing Mrs. Tai's troubled look, Eleven Niang said with a smile: To marry a wife with virtue, as long as the woman's character is good. Our brother Jin is not a person without any faults.

This is not in front of outsiders, but also to be polite and modest. Madam Madam said with some displeasure, "I think there is nothing wrong with our brother Jin. Not only is he handsome, but he is also filial and considerate, has a gentle temper, and is polite and courteous to others."

He is generous and never forgets to bring things for his family wherever he goes.

Children are your own good, and this is even more obvious in the case of the dowager.

Eleven Niang had no choice but to respond quietly and tell Xu Lingyi to her wife.

Xu Lingyi laughed and asked her: How about letting Zhongran be a matchmaker?

Grandpa, Eleven Niang was stunned.

If he wants to open a house by himself in the future, it is best to find a daughter of a general. Xu Lingyi mused that he does not need to have a high family background, but he must be capable, have good character, and have many brothers.

Brothers fighting tigers, father and son soldiers in battle. Born as a general, it means that everyone in the family is serving in the military camp. As long as it is not that muddy, Xu Lingyi can help and support a few people. When the time comes, Xu Sijin has his uncle to help him, and he can rely on one person

There are many people, and others will be a little wary when they see it.

I'm afraid that the girl's family will also have a temperament that wields swords and guns. Eleven Niang is a little worried, Brother Jin has an impatient temper, and he won't take it easy.

When the time comes, you and Sister Zhen will take a good look at it and then leave. Seeing that Eleven Niang agreed in principle, Xu Lingyi said with a smile, I will write to Zhongran later and ask him to help worry about it.

A boy ran in: Mr. Marquis, Madam, Mo Zhu, who is with the Second Young Master, has returned to Beijing. He said that he was ordered by the Second Young Master to come to say hello to you and your wife, and to give something to the Sixth Young Master by the way. He has just arrived, the steward.

Let me report to the Marquis and Madam.

Due to the defeat in the northern war, the imperial court was afraid that the Japanese pirates from Fujian would take the opportunity to make a sneak attack, so it blocked news from Jiangnan. By the time Xu Siyu knew that people from Guizhou Dusi were ordered to go to Xuantong, he wrote a letter asking for Jin Geer's details. Jin Geer had already captured his son.

Duoyan, then the news began to flow smoothly.
Chapter completed!
