Chapter 1131 What a pity it’s a ‘female’?
After saying this, Pei Nanzhi looked at the two and added: "And I tell you, His Majesty has the same bad temper as Shi Xi. He scolded me yesterday. Humph, if you don't want me to tell His Majesty about this, you'd better do as I say, especially you."
Pei Nanzhi pointed at Shen Fuyao and said, "Not only do you have to call me Sister Pei when we meet, but the wine at home is almost gone, so you'd better buy me some. From now on, I'll sit and you'll stand. When I eat, I'll be the first to use my chopsticks, and you're not allowed to snatch my meat again!"
Hearing Pei Nanzhi's words, Su Changan looked at Pei Nanzhi, who had a smug look on his face, especially that face, which was full of the smug expression of finally succeeding.
What can I say?
Although he is his elder, Su Changan still wants to say it in a bit of a servile way.
Ku Yue and Maomao were standing at the back, and finally they knew the identity of the Empress, but seeing Pei Nanzhi like this.
Ku Yue opened her eyes wide, as if she had realized something, but the next moment she slapped her thigh, her little face full of regret, as if she had lost something.
Maomao, on the other hand, looked at the expressions on Shen Fuyao's faces and rubbed his chin. Although he had seen many people do this, it varied from person to person, and everyone had different reactions and achieved different results.
very good!
Especially Maomao looked at Shen Fuyao with great satisfaction.
Only Shen Fuyao and Lin Ruchuan were seen.
Compared to the ups and downs, Lin Ruchuan looked at Pei Nanzhi in surprise, but reacted very quickly. She immediately looked at Su Changan and bowed: "Your Highness, I am Lin Ruchuan, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and I pay my respects to the Empress."
But I felt a little amused and helpless in my heart.
Not to mention what Pei Nanzhi, the gambler, knew but didn't tell them.
But this is just the surprise and doubt.
Doesn’t that make sense?
After all, she remembered that Qing Ning had dark skin and was very naughty since he was a child. How could he have changed so much now that he has grown up?
Although there is a folk saying that girls change a lot when they grow up, it is impossible for them to just change their appearance.
She had met many people, including some female heroes in the martial arts world, and she had even seen Qu Youwei on the Rouge List.
But the 'Green Lemon' in front of him was much more beautiful than Qu Youwei, and her every frown, smile, and gesture were all like a scene.
If it were the Queen, then everything would make sense.
But deep down, he was also feeling headache and relieved. Even though he had just said a few words to that fool Fuyao, it was a good thing that he didn't say anything unnecessary.
If this were said or done, even if one was a friend of the late queen, it would be extremely disrespectful.
The relationship between the predecessors and the descendants is nothing more than a word of affection. If the descendants don’t care, the affection is worthless. How can you think that you are the elders and you should do this or that?
What's more, the people are the people, the ministers are the ministers, and they are too far away from the two saints of Daxia, so they cannot think about being related to them.
Just as Lin Ruchuan finished speaking and was about to greet him, Su Changan came to her and helped her up: "Aunt Lin, there is no need to be so formal with family members, and there are no outsiders here. I have just explained to you why I came here. You two get up first."
As he spoke, Su Changan looked at Shen Fuyao with a headache on his face, and hurried forward to support Shen Fuyao.
Because Shen Fuyao was about to kneel down towards her.
"My lady, I didn't mean it."
It is naturally impossible for an elder to kneel before a younger person, but if the person being kneeled to is the Queen of Daxia, then that is a completely different matter.
Especially in this short period of time, Shen Fuyao thought about the words she said and the things she did along the way, especially the blind date she arranged. Even if she recognized the wrong person, the person was the Queen, so it didn't matter whether she recognized the wrong person or not.
Shen Fuyao, who is in his forties, feels like he has returned to the past, mainly because he has only been back in Beijing for less than a few days.
Shen Fuyao no longer had the fierce look she had when she confronted Pei Nanzhi just now, nor did she have the smiling face she had when she was pulling Su Changan and thinking about being Su Changan's mother-in-law just now.
Shen Fuyao had a bitter face and wanted to salute, but felt that ordinary salute was not enough. After all, what he had just done and what he had said were disrespectful at the most serious level.
So Shen Fuyao knelt down thinking about it.
But just as he was about to kneel down and beg for forgiveness, he was suddenly helped up by Su Changan.
Su Changan looked at Shen Fuyao, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "Aunt Shen, get up quickly. If you kneel down to me, His Majesty will not know how to deal with me when you go back. Besides, you are the elder, I can't bear it."
But looking at Shen Fuyao's expression, otherwise my wife would say that this aunt is the same as Zhao Huniu. Just with this expression, how could they be different? Otherwise, I would have come with Qingning.
Shen Fuyao looked at Su Changan with tears in the corners of his eyes.
Su Changan looked at Shen Fuyao: "It was a misunderstanding before. It was caused by me not telling you my identity right away. There is no need to be like this. There is no need to worry."
Although he heard such words, Shen Fuyao cursed Pei Nanzhi countless times in his heart, and even wanted to go up and do it.
Pei Nanzhi said secretly at this time: "You wanted to reveal your identity several times just now, but Fuyao stopped you. How can it be your fault? It's her! She is greedy for your body and wants you to be her daughter-in-law, so she did this."
But just after she finished speaking, Pei Nanzhi grabbed Su Changan's arm and said seriously: "But Madam, please give me some face. Let's forget about this matter and not tell His Majesty. I will teach them some rules later!"
Pei Nanzhi was very confident and proud, as if he had finally gotten some relief.
Lin Ruchuan glanced at Pei Nanzhi and didn't say anything, but she already knew that this was a trap set by this gambler for Fu Yao and herself, especially for Fu Yao.
Just like when we were kids, he only knew how to bully Fuyao!
But what Lin Ruchuan was thinking was, what did Fuyao do to the Empress? Otherwise why would it look like this.
Don't be like before.
But judging from Pei Nanzhi's expression, it should be just a quick talk and nothing serious would happen.
It can be like this.
Lin Ruchuan was also a little anxious. Although she had always heard that the queen was kind and filial, she was really going too far. Given the huge difference in status, this could be...
And when Shen Fuyao looked at Pei Nanzhi like this, he gritted his teeth in hatred, but when he looked at Su Changan, his face was full of fear.
Queen of Daxia, so what even if they are elders.
What's more, this so-called elder is just a friend of the late Queen Mother and is not a relative of hers.
While Su Changan was supporting Shen Fuyao, he turned his head and looked at the boastful Pei Nanzhi: "Aunt Pei, there were several times when you interrupted me and stopped me."
Pei Nanzhi blinked: "I didn't, when did I do this, and think about it, I have stopped her many times."
As he said that, he looked at Shen Fuyao: “Fuyao, tell me, did I stop you from pinching the queen’s face?”
Shen Fuyao was about to speak, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say them, because if she really tried to stop him, she would end up scolding Pei Nanzhi instead.
Lin Ruchuan on the side looked at Shen Fuyao and pinched the Queen's face? !
You are already in your forties, how can you still be as reckless as before! Looking at this, don’t you doubt whether it is a lemon?
Lin Ruchuan wanted to scold Shen Fuyao.
Pei Nanzhi continued, "Tell me, are you trying to show off that your son has become a disciple of an eighth-rank master of the Zhenyi Sect, and are you using this to entice the queen to spend more time with your son?"
Shen Fuyao was even more speechless.
Lin Ruchuan was ashamed. Why show off to the Empress when there were so many people to show off to?
Who among all the people in the world can show off in front of the Empress? It's like asking a monk to be a relative, but you've asked the wrong person.
Pei Nanzhi continued, "Also, you kept saying something about your son and how he wanted the queen to be with her so that you could be a mother-in-law, and I was hinting that you didn't. I said the Su family before, and it's true that I said it was the Su family, but it was also a trip for my parents, isn't that right? I kept telling you to stop talking, but you kept interrupting me."
Pei Nanzhi was arrogant, reasonable, and spoke in a loud voice.
This caused some people in the Lin residence to look over secretly, including some old maids.
However, the old maids who followed Lin Ruchuan looked at Pei Nanzhi one by one and shook their heads helplessly. This Miss Pei has been like this since she was a child.
But looking at the appearance of the four people over there, especially the back of the woman who was supporting Madam Shen, and even more at her big braid, the old maids couldn't help but be startled.
like
I used to see four people like this often.
But the man at that time did not wear a sword.
And if Miss Pei did this, that person would start scolding her.
Su Changan looked at the angry Aunt Shen, then at Pei Nanzhi, knowing that she would never admit it, but after thinking for a while, he asked, "You said that the paper I wrote the poem on just now was stolen from the Lord Jijiu, right?"
Aunt Pei was stunned for a moment, but immediately shook her head: "No, my senior brother knows."
Su Changan continued to ask: "That means the Lord Jijiu knows that you took it, right?"
Pei Nanzhi nodded immediately, but just after nodding, he looked at Su Changan: "I"
Su Changan looked at Kuyue and said, "Kuyue, go to the Imperial College and find Mu Xu and ask him if he knows."
Kuyue nodded, then looked at Pei Nanzhi. Although she didn’t know what would happen next, she felt that things were going to be more interesting!
Pei Nanzhi looked at Su Changan: "Brother, I don't know for now. I will tell him later."
Su Changan said, "Aunt Pei, stealing things from the current Taibao and the Imperial College is a serious crime. Especially as far as I know, a piece of paper like this is very expensive outside. Aunt Lin, what does the Daxia law say?"
Lin Ruchuan immediately understood what Su Changan meant and stood up: "Daxia Law."
Pei Nanzhi got a little anxious when he said this, and kicked Lin Ruchuan: "What Daxia law? You are from the Taichang Temple, why do you care about the affairs of the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice? Shut up!"
After saying that, he quickly walked to Su Changan and lowered his voice: "What are you doing? You are with me, why are you standing on their side? We are so good friends, have you forgotten?"
Su Changan looked at Pei Nanzhi and said, "Mao Mao, write down the whole thing and return it to His Majesty."
Pei Nanzhi stretched out his hand to cover Su Changan's mouth, then looked back at Maomao, "I'll help you scold Cui Yu, don't remember it!"
Then he turned back to look at Su Changan, really anxious, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them. Suddenly his cheeks puffed up, and then he seemed to deflate: "You have changed! You clearly spoke for me yesterday."
Su Changan looked at Pei Nanzhi: "Aunt, apologize."
Pei Nanzhi's face twisted for a moment, but then she was completely deflated and looked at Shen Fuyao: "Sister, I was wrong."
Then he looked at Lin Ruchuan and said, "Sister, I was wrong."
Finally, he looked at Su Changan and said, "I will definitely complain to His Majesty that you bullied me."
Pei Nanzhi is just like a child.
Su Changan was helpless, but ignored it. Instead, he looked at Shen Fuyao and Lin Ruchuan: "When you see His Majesty later, you can also complain to His Majesty. This time, His Majesty has said that if Aunt Pei doesn't apologize to Aunt Lin, she will be punished, but it's best for you to go and tell her. However, let's go in and eat first? I'm a little hungry."
When Shen Fuyao and Lin Ruchuan heard Su Changan's words, they looked at Pei Nanzhi who looked very angry.
Although the two of them thought that they deserved it.
But when she looked at Su Changan again, Lin Ruchuan saw the gentle face in front of her. Among the four of them, only Shi Xi could cure Pei Nanzhi.
Only Shi Xi can make Pei Nanzhi behave himself.
And at that time, after scolding Pei Nanzhi, Shi Xi would often say "Ruchuan" to her when looking at her. I'm hungry. '
…
In Lingqi Pavilion, Xia Fengxiang was lying on his side. Although he had a memorial delivered this morning in his hand, he was a little absent-minded. He stared blankly at the bamboo curtain on the side with his hand in a small box.
The late Queen Mother prepared many gifts before she left. Among the gifts were gifts for Xia Fengxiang’s annual birthday, wedding gifts, and even some things for Xia Fengxiang’s children.
It also included a letter left for Su Changan, but the letter was delivered by grandma.
But there were other letters as well.
"We should meet by now." Xia Fengxiang said softly.
After saying that, he lowered his eyes to look at the box.
The box was one of the wedding gifts left to her by her mother.
When I opened the box, there was only one sentence on the top: 'Qingge, do you remember what your mother told you about your three concubines? '
At that time, the weather was warm and the breeze was blowing gently. Just at the threshold of the palace gate, the late queen, who was already showing signs of illness and looking thin, was still holding the young Xia Fengxiang.
"Qingge, do you still remember your Aunt Lin, Aunt Chen and that most useless Aunt Pei?" The late Queen Mother leaned against the door frame and patted the young Xia Fengxiang gently.
Xia Fengxiang was very obedient and didn't dare to move, for he was afraid that his mother would feel uncomfortable. "Yes."
The late Queen Mother looked at the horizon and said, "After Qingge gets married, they may be too busy to attend your wedding. But, I believe you will definitely find a good man, a very, very good man, so you have to show off to them on my behalf!"
Xia Fengxiang raised his eyes, not understanding what this meant.
The former queen lowered her head and smiled softly before saying, "This is the promise that mother made to them. Just remember it."
Xia Fengxiang didn't understand, but nodded: "Yes, I'll remember it."
The late Queen gently held her daughter in her arms and looked toward the sky again: "Qingge, what kind of person will you find in the future?"
She was smiling, but she didn't dare to look at the daughter in her arms because tears were in her eyes.
Xia Fengxiang picked up the box and said, "Mother, Su Changan is gone, and your son-in-law is going to show off for you."
But after saying this, Xia Fengxiang couldn't help but smile: "That's right, the three aunts should treat him as a woman, but it doesn't matter."
…
What happened just now was just a small episode. Although it was a misunderstanding, the misunderstanding was resolved, and it also made Chen Fuyao and Lin Ruchuan feel much closer to the Queen.
And originally, the two of them were quite reserved.
Especially Shen Fuyao.
After all, something like that happened, how could she not be nervous?
But
The queen is more family-friendly than they think.
Not to mention anything else, they just call them auntie and there are not so many rules when eating.
People who don’t know would think they have met for a long time, and that this person is not the high and mighty queen.
Then I thought about Pei Nanzhi’s actions just now.
The two finally understood how this gambler dared to do this. The Queen was like this. She didn't even act like the Queen in front of them. She just treated herself as a junior.
This made Shen Fuyao and Lin Ruchuan feel relieved.
"I'll make some new stewed food later and have someone send some to you. The taste is different, so try it. If you don't like it, give it away. If you like it, ask someone to come to the palace and tell me so I can make some."
Su Changan was finally full. After putting down his bowl and chopsticks, he looked at Pei Nanzhi and the other two.
Especially looking at Shen Fuyao: "Don't worry about your child's marriage. I have recently considered that there are many single girls. Moreover, I can match Zhao Huniu and Xia Yaomo together. Leave your son to me."
Shen Fuyao looked embarrassed, but after nodding, she looked at Su Changan like this, and for some reason she felt inexplicably sad.
The more approachable and lovely this lady was, the stronger the feeling of sadness became.
Pei Nanzhi was not polite: "I want wine. Yan Yunxiao buried a lot of wine in a palace courtyard."
Su Changan ignored Pei Nanzhi and dug out those wines. Did he think Aunt Yan was just a decoration?
But just as he was about to continue speaking, Su Changan remembered something and took out three small brocade bags from his arms. On the bags were the names of the three people. "Before I left the palace, His Majesty asked me to take them out and told me to give them to you."
In fact, Su Changan was a little curious when he got this thing before leaving the palace, because even if Aunt Pei and Aunt Lin had seen it, how could his wife be so sure that Aunt Chen was also there.
It was not until he saw Chen Fuyao that Su Changan realized that it was probably his wife who knew that Chen Fuyao was also called by Pei Nanzhi today.
Su Changan handed three small sachets to the three people according to their names.
The three of them were a little confused.
Su Changan said, "It was said that the late Queen left it behind and asked her to pass it on to you."
The three people who were originally curious were stunned and immediately opened their own treasure bags.
There are three letters in each sachet.
The three of them opened it anxiously, and then seemed stunned as they just stared at the letter.
…
In a house many years ago.
Four girls, Leng Shixi, Lin Ruchuan, Pei Nanzhi, and Shen Fuyao.
Lin Ruchuan sat at the desk reading a book, not affected at all by the quarrel between Pei Nanzhi and Shen Fuyao.
Leng Shixi was lying on the bed with her head facing down, so she could see the scene in the room upside down, mainly because the girl had too much free time.
But suddenly!
Leng Shixi suddenly stood up, but accidentally fell off the bed with a bang, hitting her head. The girl hugged her head and huddled up.
The other three girls seemed to be used to it when they saw this.
However, the girl stood up with tears in her eyes, and said while trying to hold back the pain: "I'm not hurting!"
The three girls ignored her.
But Leng Shixi immediately said: "I've thought about it, I want to have a daughter in the future!"
The other three girls looked at her again, but after glancing at each other, they continued to ignore her because they knew she had another attack.
Seeing that the three people ignored him, Leng Shixi snorted, "You guys are jealous! I thought that when my daughter finds a son-in-law for me, she will find the most powerful one. My daughter, humph! You will be so jealous by then!"
Pei Nanzhi looked at Leng Shixi: "I haven't even thought about getting married. Men will only affect me from doing what I want to do."
Shen Fuyao: "I want a son. A son is fun and can't be broken."
Lin Ruchuan: "I haven't thought about these things. I just want to pass the imperial examination."
Leng Shixi leaned against the door frame and looked up at the sky: "You are hopeless, I thought too far ahead."
…
Su Changan left in the afternoon, as if there was no secret bag. After seeing the letter, the three of them put it away tacitly.
But in the house after Su Changan left
Very quiet.
Pei Nanzhi sat upside down on the couch, just like the girl many years ago. She was not like this before, and it seemed that she had only been like this since she could no longer see that girl.
Shen Fuyao sat on the doorstep, holding the letter in his hand: "If Shixi knew that Qingge had found a woman..."
But when the words came to her lips, Shen Fuyao chuckled: "She doesn't seem to care about these things, and seeing the queen like this, she might come to us every day to show off."
Lin Ruchuan looked down at the letter in her hand: "Well, she doesn't care. She doesn't care."
The originally clean paper became wet in one place when Lin Ruchuan said this.
Lin Ruchuan's body was trembling, her head was lowered and she didn't look up, but she could hear some sobbing and choking sounds.
When Shen Fuyao heard Lin Ruchuan's voice, he turned his back to the two of them, but he was also trembling.
Pei Nanzhi placed one hand directly on his eyes.
No one spoke, but the three people in the room were still holding back tears.
I miss that girl who sometimes acts crazy.
Three letters.
…
'Ruchuan, did you get the Wanmin Umbrella you wanted? Doesn’t it look good! Also, I can’t see what my son-in-law is like! I was afraid that Nanzhi wouldn't tell me the truth. '
…
'Nanzhi, if you are short of money, just sell what I gave you and have enough food to eat! Also, please tell me what kind of person my Qingge has found. I’m so anxious. Fuyao only says what I want to hear. '
…
'Fuyao, is your son funny? I hope he hasn't gotten into trouble like you. Take it easy when I'm not around! besides! Tell me quickly whether my son-in-law is good-looking, polite, how he treats you, and whether he enjoys eating. That bookworm Lin Ruchuan doesn't know what to say! I'm so angry! '
