[Red House] But for the sake of the king

Tang shi rubbed his forehead, leaned against the pillow, although he got up, he still looked bad.Daiyu and Lin Heng greeted Ann, and asked worriedly, "Grandmother, how do you feel right now?"

Tang said weakly, "I'm fine, I'm afraid I've slept through, and I'm a little weak. After a while, drink a cup of tea and wake up. By the way, Heng'er, you can go to Tang's house tomorrow, Let them help inquire about your father's news, just say what I mean."

Daiyu said, "Daddy has only been there for more than a month. Even if you go all the way fast, it's hard to tell if you've made it there. Didn't Daddy say that this time he's just running errands for the emperor and there's no danger. You can relax. It's you In this way, let us rest assured, let’s ask the imperial doctor to come and see you tomorrow. You are not easy to fall asleep at night, so don’t drink the tea, let them replace it with hot milk. Didn’t the doctor say that last time? .”

Tang said, "I know that too. It's just that I don't feel at ease. It's good to ask. Yu'er is becoming more and more like an adult now. Forget it, I'll send someone to invite her tomorrow. I don't know how to do it with my old bones." How long will it last. Anyway, it’s up to you to decide, I’m happy to relax, so let’s listen to you.”

Lin Heng hurriedly stepped forward to lean on Tang's side, and said, "Don't you make my sister sad when you say such things again, last time you just said a joke, but my sister shed a lot of tears. You are the backbone of the Lin family, It must be a long-lived one, otherwise what would we do.”

Tang smiled and said, "You brat, this is actually for your sister, but I don't know if you have a conscience or no conscience. Birth, old age, sickness and death are normal in the world, and there is nothing to be afraid of. If there is no you that day Sister, thinking about it, I can't live for so long. After your grandfather left, I felt that life was meaningless, and your father is relieved. If it wasn't for seeing my grandson, I would have left a long time ago." Tang fell into deep thought, with a dazed expression, as if recalling the past.

Daiyu and Lin Heng were taken aback, and hurriedly called "Grandma", which brought Tang back to his senses.Thinking of what I said just now, I felt that it was inappropriate, so I said, "Look what I said, I'm really confused. It's getting late, let them set the meal, the three of us are together again today , your father doesn't know when he will come back. Look at me, he went back again, Heng'er, don't forget that tomorrow's going to Tang's house, even if you can't find anything, at least I can feel at ease after asking."

Lin Heng nodded in response, and Daiyu ordered people to set the meal, feeling even more agitated.She is a girl and two years older than Lin Heng, so she naturally thinks more.There must be no reason why grandma did this, besides, her health is getting worse and her father is thousands of miles away from home, if there is an emergency, Daiyu dare not think about it.Even if she has learned almost everything about housekeeping, she really doesn't have the courage to control the overall situation when she encounters a real situation.

In the early morning of the next day, Lin Heng went to Tang's house as ordered by the Tang family. Since Tang Yan and Tang Hao were not at home, Lin Heng went to Tang Yi, Tang Yan's cousin, to explain his intention.Tang Yi didn't know about these things either, so after a few words of relief, he said that he would tell his father when he got home, and that it would be serious to let Lin Heng go back and take care of his aunt.After Lin Heng left, Tang Yi told his mother, Mrs. Hu, who was a little worried when she heard this, and asked someone to get a car and hurried to the Lin's house.Her mother-in-law left early, and this aunt helped her family a lot in the early years. I heard that when my master was scolded by the old master, it was her aunt who helped her, so the master often ordered her to be filial to her aunt.Now that the cousin of the Lin family is not here, and there is no daughter-in-law who is in charge at home, she, the niece and daughter-in-law, should also do her best.

Not long after Mrs. Hu went out, Tang Yan returned home, accompanied by Tang Hao.The two brothers separated from each other early in the morning, and unless they had something to discuss, it was impossible for them to return to the same family.Tang Yi answered what Lin Heng had said, and went down by himself without disturbing him.

Tang Yan was born in the army, with big arms and a round waist, and a beard all over his face. He looked a bit fierce, but at the moment, his face was tangled and frowning, "Are you saying that some news has leaked out? Why is my aunt worrying at this time?"

Tang Hao said, "I'm afraid it's a mother-child connection. After all, my aunt is also a woman in the inner court. It's possible for such a thing to be spread among the men of various families. Who will spread it to the inner court. It's just that what the emperor said today is actually a woman in the inner court." What do you mean, the team at the front only arrived in Fujian the soonest, and I haven't heard that there is an urgent report of [-] miles, so there is some mystery in this."

Tang Yan said, "I don't understand, but when I selected my entourage that day, I selected my confidantes, and the adjutant was my adjutant Zhang who had followed me since I was in the barracks that day. There is no need to worry about my cousin's safety. It's just the emperor He suddenly asked the Ministry of War to prepare for the war, and if he wanted to wipe out the Izumo Kingdom in one fell swoop, he didn’t have to wait until now.”

"No, I've already said that we're going to talk about peace. Really, I've never guessed what this master is thinking." Tang Hao shook his head, the tea bowl in his hand was just a decoration, and he didn't take a sip. "I heard that the king of Tatar is On the way here, could it be possible that he wanted to sneak in and fight the Tatars?"

Tang Yan smiled and said, "Second brother, you are joking. Who doesn't know that since the battle a few years ago, when Yeluqi became king, the Tatars have already made good relations with our court. The emperor also said in the early years that the Tatars can only make them surrender. But they cannot belong to their own country, they are not of my race, so their hearts must be different. Besides, Yeluding is still in charge of the military power, how can the Tatars be easy to fight. Probably he is thinking about something again. The emperor's mind is not casual. Who can guess. If my cousin is here, he can give us advice, now, hey, what is it all about."

Tang Hao also lost his seriousness just now, and instead smiled, "Brother, why are you still like this? After so many years, outsiders seem to be quite shrewd, but you are so confused in private. There is nothing wrong with the court. Bending is just a waste of brain. Now you don’t need to wield knives and guns, so what if you spend some time thinking about it. Forget it, according to what the emperor said today, there is nothing to do ahead, so send someone to tell my aunt Say, don't let her old man worry or be afraid. At such an age, it would be a crime to scare her badly."

Tang Yan said, "That's right, I'll call someone to go."

Inside the palace, Jun Qi looked at the person in front of him with a headache, and sent him back to return with a wave of his hand.It was so easy to finish the selection of the show girl without having to come forward, and the queen mother asked him to welcome newcomers every day.In the beginning, it was still beating in secret when paying respects, but now I have sent someone to speak directly.If it's the same as before, it's not impossible to order two people at random, but now I don't know what's wrong, when I do this, my mind is like a sea, and the mood of the two when they are happy, it's fun It's high, but the person in my arms is not like the sea after all, how should I put it, it's not a taste after all.

Dai Quan on the side said cautiously, "Your Majesty, it's been several days, why don't you just order one."

Jun Qi glanced at him, continued to read the report in his hand, and asked, "Which one of the newly promoted girls can move at will. If you move one, you must move the second. Is the doorway here not yours?" Not sure yet."

Dai Quan replied, "The emperor is wise."

Jun Qi put down the memorial and said, "Forget it, let King Xuan Zhongshun and King Bei Jing come."

Dai Quan reminded, "Your Majesty, Princess Beijing's body is in violation of peace today, and King Beijing asked for leave three days ago."

Jun Qi suddenly said, "I forgot about it, how is the concubine's body?"

Dai Quan replied, "According to the imperial doctor, the concubine is just getting old, I'm afraid it's..."

Jun Qi nodded, "Go to the imperial pharmacy to see if there is any good thousand-year-old wild ginseng, and send it to Beiwangfu. You don't need to call Beijing Wang, call Lao Liu here."

Dai Quan was ordered to go, from Zhongshun Prince's Mansion to the opera garden and then to the other courtyards, only then did he find him, and hurriedly dragged him to the palace.

As soon as Jun You came in, he complained, "Brother, what important things are you looking for in such a hurry, every time you don't say hello in advance, it's so difficult to be a famous prince. Just a little bit, I never do serious things, if you have any important court affairs, you should go to the ministers, I am very important."

"If you have something important to do, it's rare to find you once. Look at you like this." Jun Qi didn't bother to look at him. "Where did you go again? It took me a long time to come here. If it wasn't about the elder brother, would I want to find you?" You, your head is full of romance, but you are self-aware. Take that actor down?"

Jun You smiled and said, "This is a tough bone, it can't be easily done, but it's coming soon. Since when did the emperor care so much about the affairs of his younger brother? I'm just an actor. If I can become an emperor, I will be punished." No."

Jun Qi asked him to sit on the kang as well, and said, "Don't pretend to be confused, I don't believe that you put so much effort just for the sake of being an actor, it's not like it's never happened before, isn't it all about bringing people into the mansion, After a few days, I forgot again. You play for fun, don’t miss the serious business, and don’t fool yourself.”

Jun You seemed to have heard the big joke, and laughed loudly, "Brother Huang underestimated me too much, I dare not say anything else, I will never fool myself with this matter, don't worry. Didn't you say I have something important to say, hurry up, otherwise the queen mother will catch me again, just because of the side concubine, it is really troublesome. You say you are the same, why do you want to promise the queen mother to point me to a side concubine? Do you still think my palace is not lively enough?"

Jun Qi thought to himself, if I let you know that this is my idea, maybe something will happen.Besides, how could he be the only one to suffer in this kind of thing, and besides, it was for the sake of his younger brother's heir, so he definitely did nothing wrong.Clearing his throat, Jun Qi changed the subject and said, "Do you still remember that Miaoyu, the only surviving daughter of the Su family, who is now leading the cultivation practice, the news from the Chen family, she has brought a lot of good things with her, That's all right, the Su family was originally a wealthy family, so there's nothing surprising about it. It's just that there are still many forbidden items in the palace, which is worth considering."

"Forbidden items in the palace?" Jun You asked strangely, "Could it be that they were rewarded to the Su family that day?"

Jun Qi said, "If this is the case, it's not surprising. I asked someone to check it. I definitely remember the green jade bucket she used. It belonged to the elder brother's house back then. There are many more, all belonged to the elder brother. Treasure. No matter how much my elder brother thinks highly of Su Ming'an, he won't give away all the things he likes that day. Outsiders don't know, don't you and I know, elder brother likes these rare antiques the most, how could he give up his love so easily. He sees The things on the table belong to the old man, and he will always find a way to get them."

Jun You touched the jade pendant on his waist, he couldn't make up his mind for a moment, "Didn't you say that Qin Keqing is the eldest brother's daughter, what token does she have?"

Jun Qi said, "It was the Xue family who brought her from Jinling that day, saying that she had a pair of jade bracelets, and the nanny who accompanied her was from the Prince's House, and the rest were gone. I think since the Xue family dared to take her As a bargaining chip, it should be convinced, but now it seems that I may have made a mistake."

"Could it be that Su's family really exchanged their own daughter for the elder brother's daughter?"

"It's not impossible. When the elder brother's family was secretly executed, the Su family had not been confiscated. Su Mingan has always been loyal to the elder brother. It is not impossible to do such a thing. It's a pity that he didn't expect that the Su family would also get it." The end of the whole family was hacked, so that this child was left outside."

Jun You rubbed his head, and it took him a long time to say, "Then, what does it matter? Aren't they all girls, even if they are changed by mistake, it's nothing. Anyway, they don't have the identity they should have now, so it doesn't matter."

Jun Qi rolled his eyes at him, "Naturally, the big deal is to take care of him for the sake of big brother, nothing else. It's just that you forgot, the Su family's brochure."

"Ah? Brochure?" Jun You looked puzzled, "What does it matter? There are so many treasures around Miaoyu, maybe they are hidden there. If it is not with her, it will be with Qin Keqing. Wouldn't it be more convenient. I will If you don't believe me, you don't have eyeliner in Jia's family, I'm afraid there are quite a few of them."

Jun Qi waved his hand, maybe he was thinking too much, "Let's not talk about this, Yeluqi will be here in a few days, you are ready to prepare."

Jun You immediately looked sad, "Why did that kid come? It's been so long, I thought he wouldn't come. I owed him in my previous life, and I made a lot of trouble last time. I don't know what to do. Brother Huang, if we discuss it, you should find someone else to accompany him."

"How can I do that? He asked you to accompany him by name. After all, he is the king of a country, so he wants me to accompany you in person."

Jun You regretted too much, "If I had known about the previous peace talks, I would have taken the initiative to go. It is better to run errands for you than to accompany that brat. I think he must be very proud now, even Yelvding is willing to surrender and be his obediently." My lord, I really don't want to see his face!"

Jun Qi smiled, "It seems that it's really a bad fate from the previous life. If it wasn't for him to have Yeluding, I would have thought he fell in love with you. It's so strange, you were the most difficult one in the past, old man see Even if you have a headache, why are you afraid of him?"

"How do I know, maybe I really owed him in the previous life." Jun You said helplessly, "Forget it, Brother Huang is all right, before the Queen Mother can find me, I hurried back, people are still waiting for me Woolen cloth."

Jun Qi was also afraid that the queen mother would reveal her secrets as soon as she found him, so he let him go, and just told him, "You must know about that matter, don't treat it like a joke, he is different from those people before, you know?" .”

Jun You ran out and replied, "I know, I know." When he ran to the door, he remembered something, turned back and asked Jun Qi, "By the way, what is the meaning of the fact that Brother Huang asked the Ministry of War to prepare for war today? Peace talks are going on in the south, nothing is going on in the north, Koryo is also very peaceful now, busy with its own family affairs, there is no place to use troops. It is not your style to be militaristic, so what is the plan?"

Jun Qi smiled and said, "What are you talking about? I can calculate anything. I will not just tease them. I don't know if the peace talks in the south can be concluded, so naturally I have to prepare. They don't care about anything in the past. Now, I always have to find something for them to do at the right time, otherwise I will raise them in vain."

Jun You naturally didn't believe this, "Look at you smiling, there must be nothing good, that's all, I don't care about these things anyway, just forget about it, I'll go find a beauty."

Jun Qi stopped him this time, "Come back, something is wrong with me."

Jun You looked confused, and asked, "What's wrong." But he thought in his heart, I think something is wrong with you, so he stopped me again.

"You do the math, we only talked a few words, how many times you mentioned that actor, don't let me catch you. I have seen so many people in the past, and the backyard is so lively, is it possible? I really fell into the hands of this actor. I am curious, what kind of character is it, could it be a fairy, who fascinated you like this."

Jun You stumbled and said, "Oh, you, what are you talking about, I am not, didn't you ask me to do this. He just looks better like that, with two eyes and a nose, It’s not enough to have more mouths than others. I’ve seen someone who’s more beautiful than him, and I’ve also had someone who’s more capable than him, so how could it fall into his hands.”

Jun Qi rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, I asked you to do it again. It's obvious that people came after you because they knew your good reputation. It has nothing to do with me. Are you a fart? Bumped up to meet him, I said I want to cut the mess quickly, but you don't want to, so you have to say something to play with him. That's all, do as you like, if I really hit the mark in the future, don't blame me for not reminding you. He will eventually It's not something that can stand on the table, you remember."

Jun You was disturbed by his words, so he agreed casually and walked out, for fear that he would say something earth-shattering and make his heart tremble.

Tang shi looked more and more groggy today, and he couldn't keep his eyes open when he got up early.Daiyu was worried all night, tossing and turning and didn't sleep well. Hearing about this situation, she hurriedly got up and sent for a doctor.Lin Heng heard about this when he came back from Tang's house, and hurriedly came back to pay his respects, and was taken aback when he saw his grandmother's appearance.

The siblings waited anxiously for a long time before someone reported the imperial doctor.Daiyu hurriedly supported the girl's hand and hid behind the green gauze cupboard, and the girls who served Tang's also avoided, leaving only a few little girls without hair, and four nuns.

The imperial doctor who came today was not the one who was often invited. His gray beard was obviously old, but he didn't dare to push it too far, and walked in with his head down.

In the quiet room, there was only the slight sound of cloth rubbing against each other. The gray-bearded old imperial doctor closed his eyes and turned his head outside for a long time, then opened his eyes and asked him to change hands again. After about a cup of tea, he let go, got up and walked out.There was no one else at home, and Lin Heng was young, so it happened that Lin Yu was at home today, so he was invited over to say hello.As soon as the two saw the imperial doctor coming out, they rushed up to meet them and asked, "Mister, what's the matter with my grandmother's health?"

The old imperial doctor said, "It's okay, the old lady is getting old, and she caught a cold at night, and there are things in her heart, and she feels more and more uncomfortable."

Lin Heng was relieved, and said, "Please ask the old gentleman to go to the study outside to get a prescription."

The old imperial doctor said hello repeatedly, and followed Lin Heng to the outer study.After eating tea and writing a prescription, the old imperial doctor said, "This medicine must be taken on time, and it must not be missed, then it will have no effect. However, heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine. To keep the old lady happy, don't worry about it. It's all in your mind."

Lin Heng read the prescription and said, "Sir, you are really clever, and this junior has written it down."

Seeing that nothing happened, the old imperial doctor left.Lin Yu sent people to the door before turning back.Here, Lin Heng handed over the prescription and pulse case to Daiyu for careful reading. His elder sister really knows everything. She even likes to read medical books.The two brothers and sisters saw that it was symptomatic, so they ordered people to grab the medicine and fry it quickly.

When Mrs. Hu arrived, she took a closer look at Mrs. Tang's situation, and felt a little worried.Because I sent my servants to the house to bring bedding and dowry, saying that I would stay at Lin's house for a few days.Daiyu wished that there was an elder at home at the moment, who could also help out with ideas, so she was so happy that she thanked her and cried once in Hu's arms.Before her mother died that day, she could hardly get out of bed like this. She was really afraid that her grandmother would go like this.

Not to mention how the Tang family took the medicine, Lin Ruhai, who was thousands of miles away, hurried all the way to Fujian, but fell ill due to acclimatization.Fortunately, I was not in a hurry for a day or two, so I changed to a carriage and slowed down, and hurried on the road while treating the illness.Lin Ruhai, who was half lying in the carriage, couldn't help smiling wryly, he didn't mention Jun Qi before he came, he was also afraid that there might be some conspiracy involved, so he was always careful not to be tricked.How could he know that before others came to plot against him, his unsatisfactory body would fall down first, and he had come to the south for not one or two times, but he even made a fuss about acclimatization.But Lin Ruhai didn't intend to let Jun Qi know about it, he thought it would be all right in a couple of days, so he didn't have to worry about it.It's just that Lin Ruhai, who was ill, forgot how many Jun Qi's eyeliners were around him, and how he could hide such things from him.But the two are separated by thousands of miles, even if they know it, it's nothing to worry about, it's really useless.

After beating his chest twice, Lin Ruhai only felt a tightness in his chest, but he had no other symptoms. I don't know if it was one of the symptoms of acclimatization.Or how to say that mother and child are connected, at this moment Tang's chest is tight and short of breath, dizzy and weak.Thinking of the old and the young at home, Lin Ruhai still felt ashamed of his mother and a pair of children. He only wanted to find out the people behind the scenes, and help Jun Qi deal with the matter of the Izumo Kingdom by the way, but he forgot that once he left home, The family doesn't have a reliable man, and they need it for nothing on weekdays. If there is a big or small affair, Heng'er is useless.Fortunately, there are two cousins ​​to help, which also made him less worried.

It's just that the acclimatization didn't improve after three to five days, and the medicine I took every day seemed to be in vain, with no effect at all.Lin Ruhai was impatient. He was the "leader" now, and when he came to the front to negotiate peace with people in such a sick state, his momentum was greatly lacking, and he couldn't talk well.And because he was worried about the situation in the capital, he finally brought a letter from his family when he submitted the memorial. It was difficult for the official to send it to his home, so Jun Qi had to hand it over.

Another two days passed, seeing Quanzhou City in front of him, Lin Ruhai gritted his teeth and asked the doctor to administer a strong dose of medicine, no matter whether it is harmful to the body or not, these annoying symptoms should be suppressed first.I don't know if the medicine really worked or if he was almost sick, but Lin Ruhai finally regained his vitality and made preparations the day before he arrived in Quanzhou City.
