The ghost hooked

Because the previous day was late, the princess sent her father-in-law to the palace early the next morning to report to the emperor and queen mother that they were safe.

Emperor Liang Hui was a soldier for half his life, and he only married one wife. He didn't even have a concubine. His wife also lived up to expectations and gave birth to a son and two daughters.

Emperor Liang Hui passed away a few years ago, and now he succeeds to the throne. Although he has important ministers in charge of the military, he has no brothers to fight for the throne. The current throne is considered secure.

Now that Xue Baigui is on the mend, he just needs to rest at home, Xue Baichuan doesn't want to go out anymore, so he comes to the side courtyard to accompany him.

Xue Xiujie used to come to the side courtyard every day to keep company with Xue Baigui, so he was quite surprised to see Xue Baichuan sitting beside the bed having breakfast with his younger brother this morning.

Although Xue Baichuan and Xue Baigui are twins, they have been different since they were young, and it is very easy to distinguish them. One is fat like a ball, and the other is thin like a pole.

The fat one has a temperament similar to that of the eldest princess. He has a straight temper and a bit of boldness. He doesn't pay attention to his studies, but he thinks about running outside all day long.

The thin one followed the son-in-law more, probably because he had been ill for many years and couldn't go out, so he developed the habit of reading. Although he had never been out of the house, he knew a lot about the world.

Xue Xiujie is Xue Xiurui's younger brother, and he has been living in the Princess Mansion all these years. Although he can be regarded as half of the master in the mansion, this is the Princess Mansion after all, and it is somewhat embarrassing for him to live here.

Most of the people in the capital are dignitaries, Xue Xiujie has a status of no rank, and most of them are nodding acquaintances outside, so he runs to Xue Baigui whenever he has the time.

Seeing the two of them now, Xue Xiujie asked, "Baichuan, why don't you go out and make a living?"

Xue Baichuan has been out and about for more than a year. Although he has learned a lot of kung fu, he has also acquired a lot of Jianghu air. At this time, he sat there with his legs apart, his body bent, and he took a bowl of porridge and slurped it into his mouth. fill.

Hearing the question, he got up and poured another bowl of porridge, and said, "I met a lot of interesting things when I went out this time, so I will tell my brother when I come back, uncle, will you listen?"

Of course there is no grievance or hatred in the world, but every time Xue Baichuan goes out, he can always make some special friends, and the things he experiences are also very interesting. Pass the bowl of porridge, sit down and listen while eating.

The second young master's health improved, and the whole princess mansion was joyful. On the fifth day of February, people finally came to the palace.

The person who came was Eunuch Pang, who was serving the emperor, holding a yellow scroll in his hand, followed by two young eunuchs.

Seeing that Eunuch Pang only had the imperial decree in his hand, and the little eunuch behind him was also empty-handed, the Eldest Princess had a bad feeling, so she hurried up to greet him and called out, "Eunuch Pang."

The eldest princess also lived in the palace when she was young, so she naturally knew Eunuch Pang.

Eunuch Pang is over forty years old, since he can be called Eunuch, his status in the palace is definitely not low, but in the end he is still a slave, so he can't hold it up when he sees the Eldest Princess.

Eunuch Pang came to the mansion, obviously he did not bring any reward from the emperor, and now he was going to see Xue Baigui again, the eldest princess couldn't help frowning, and said: "Eunuch is tired all the way, why don't you go in and have a cup of tea to warm yourself up."

"This old servant bears the emperor's order, and he came to proclaim the decree. The eldest princess should not embarrass this old servant." Pang Gong was fair.

Feeling helpless, the eldest princess had no choice but to take Eunuch Pang to the side courtyard.

Eunuch Pang has been to the Princess Mansion several times, so it is impossible not to know Xue Baigui's residence, so he just followed politely at the moment, after all, this is the residence of the emperor's own sister, not a place where he can do whatever he wants.

In the inner room, there were people kneeling on the ground, Mr. Pang said fairly: "Xue Baigui's body has not recovered yet, the emperor allows you to lie down and listen to the order."

"By God's blessing, the emperor's edict said: Xue Baigui, the second son of the princess, has deep blessings and a pure heart. There is a disaster in the south this year, and I have specially ordered... this!"

"The imperial decree is finished, everyone please get up!" Pang Gong said fairly.

Several people in the room couldn't believe their ears.

The eldest princess frowned, got up to accept the imperial decree for Xue Baigui, said a few clichés, and motioned for the father-in-law in charge of the mansion to take the red seal.

Xue Xiujie was stunned for a moment before realizing that the emperor ordered Xue Baigui to leave the capital within a month, he said angrily: "How can the emperor do this, Baigui's body just recovered..."

When the princess heard what he said, she turned around and gave him a slap with her hands, and shouted: "You don't have a place to talk here, just stay here!"

Xue Baichuan was also angry in his heart, but he was not as reckless as Xue Xiujie. After all, there were so many people in the room, it would be a big deal to spread rumors about the holy will, so he quickly pulled Xue Xiujie's sleeve and pulled him aside.

The eldest princess barely maintained her expression, and said, "I made Eunuch Pang laugh."

Eunuch Pang is also a good person. After receiving the red envelope, he knew that it contained gold leaves, so he naturally knew what to say and what not to say.

After putting away the red envelope, Eunuch Pang said: "It's getting late, our family has to go back and report to our orders, so we're leaving now."

"I'll see off Eunuch." The eldest princess followed Eunuch Pang out.

Eunuch Pang gave way to the eldest princess, half a body behind, and followed aside. The maid and the little eunuch consciously fell behind a few steps. The eldest princess asked, "Why did the emperor suddenly make an order?"

"Our family can't tell if there are too many, but news will come out after today." Eunuch Pang lowered his voice a little, and said, "The third prince passed away last night."

Today, it is different from Emperor Liang Hui. In order to balance the court, he took in many concubines after ascending the throne, and heirs are also abundant. Now he has three sons and two daughters. Eight points.

The palms of her hands hurt from scratching her nails, so she barely stopped her anger and asked, "Is there still time to beg the Queen Mother?"

Eunuch Pang sighed inwardly. As expected, the emperor still knew the eldest princess, and said: "Before leaving the palace, the emperor ordered you to stay in the mansion to accompany the second son before leaving the capital. You don't need to enter the palace to pay your respects."

The eldest princess insisted on sending Eunuch Pang out of the mansion, and then returned to the inner courtyard. She pushed back the following maids, and the sound of things breaking came from inside the house.

The maid who was guarding outside the house hurried to find the son-in-law.

When Xue Xiurui came back, there was no movement in the house. When he opened the door, he saw that the floor was broken, and even the tables and chairs in the house were not intact.

He hurried forward to see the eldest princess, "Jingyin, where is the injury?"

Seeing the bloodstains on her palm, Xue Xiurui was very distressed, quickly took the veil and plaster, and cleaned it up for her.

Seeing his cautious appearance, the eldest princess leaned aside as if discouraged, and said: "The surname Qin is really deceiving people too much. Her son is dead, so she will come to harm my son!"

"That's also the son of the emperor's brother." Xue Xiurui took the wrapped hand to his mouth and kissed it, and asked, "Does it hurt?"

Facing the son-in-law, the eldest princess loses her temper very quickly. This person seems to be specially sent by the heavens to subdue her, and he can always defuse her anger. "You know the imperial decree, why don't you worry about returning home?"

Holding the eldest princess into his arms, the son-in-law said a little helplessly: "The military power is outside, the imperial brother's throne is ultimately unstable, and the situation above the court is complicated, and the imperial brother is involuntary. As his relatives, we naturally cannot It's time to add chaos."

After a pause, he continued: "Go over there to cleanse yourself, maybe it's better for Baigui's health, as long as it's safe."

The two were talking about their own things when a person broke in.

"Mother, you smashed things again?" Xue Baichuan looked at the mess on the ground, got used to it, picked up a clean place, tiptoed into it, and said, "It's not easy for Dad to make money, so you can't save it!"

When the eldest princess saw her eldest son, she became very angry. If it wasn't for this brat who yelled at practicing martial arts and went to the military camp guarding the capital to make a fuss, how could anyone think that Xue's family was about to produce a military general and glared at her eldest son. Said: "What are you doing here?"

"I didn't come to see you," Xue Baichuan said, "I came to tell you that I'm going to join the army."

"What are you talking about!" The eldest princess was even more angry, "You are very good, what kind of army do you join, what if you die outside?"

Xu Shi felt resentful towards this overly healthy son. Ever since Xue Baichuan became sensible, the mother and son had not spoken calmly when they met. Xue Xiurui comforted the eldest princess and said, "Don't say such unlucky words," then turned to look at the eldest son , asked: "Have you thought it through?"

"Think clearly," Xue Baichuan nodded, and said, "It's not a long-term solution to be patient all the time. It's better to fight hard. One day in the future, you will be able to vent your anger."

Although Xue Baichuan looked rough, he was subtle. Xue Xiurui nodded, and said, "It's good if you think about it clearly. Your mother will be taken care of by me. Don't worry! Can you tell me about Baigui?"

"Not yet," Xue Baichuan shook his head, and said, "I'll stay with him for a while at home, and I'll leave after he leaves Beijing."

Glancing at Xue Baichuan's leaving back, the eldest princess sighed, and said, "Master, do you think my mother's work is too bad?"

"Where is it? You are the best mother in the world." Xue Xiurui said.

"Isn't my mother the best mother in the world?" the eldest princess asked.

Xue Xiurui raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "The queen mother is naturally good, otherwise how could she raise a beautiful lady like you, you are naturally better than blue."

Sweeping away the haze just now, the eldest princess had a smile on her face, and thought that it would be good to marry a literati husband, and she could speak nicely, and she was a little embarrassed when she saw the mess everywhere. One or two times, the quota given by the palace is not enough, and it is not the money of the concubine.

Since Xue Xiurui became a son-in-law, he didn't play the role of a literati. Since he chose a beauty, he naturally couldn't choose an official career. He is smart and has the princess mansion as the backstage.

Seeing her glance at the items on the ground, Xue Xiurui hurriedly called someone to clean them up, and said: "The furnishings in the house are a bit old, I was just about to replace them with new ones, Mrs. Lao has already smashed the old ones, can I ask Mrs. to come with me again?" To pick up some new ones?"

The steps were all set up, and the eldest princess naturally walked down, following the son-in-law to pick out new decorations.

Although the two temporarily forgot about their second son who was about to travel far away and their eldest son who was about to join the army, they still left home one after another at the end of the month, and after a day, Xue Xiujie was lost.
