MTL - Love Like the Galaxy-Chapter 148

The hangover of the Lantern Festival banquet was not awake, and Mrs. Xiao grabbed his head from the bed when Father Cheng covered his head. Although he did not have the right to nod and shake his head from beginning to end, he still had to sit upright. Yuan Jiabing, who received his proposal, looked like a big brainless mascot.

Afterwards, he couldn't help but scolded his wife: "This time, you agreed. When you got married to Huo Zisheng, how much did you ask about the Huo Ling family?"

Mrs. Xiao said sadly: "Shanjian is different from Zisheng, he will not take action until he is 100% sure; Proposing a marriage, who knows how to stay until now. And Huo Budo...he doesn't care about things, so if something gets involved, he must be reckless."

Cheng Shi was also silent for a while when he mentioned his former husband-in-law, and aside from hurting his daughter and hurting his body, that Shuzi was a man of temperament. After a long while, he said: "Forget it, people in the past, don't mention things in the past... Uh, by the way, do we still have a wedding banquet?"

As soon as these words came out, the couple looked at each other and their faces were embarrassed at the same time-the third time they invited relatives and friends as they were, entertained them as they were, and then introduced the new husband-in-law enthusiastically, even Cheng Shi His face was a little unbearable.

So he sighed: "Heacha is a white wat of frost, you can eat it after you take it off, but it's a beef tendon that can't be chewed, and it's been stewed for so long. Has the case been filed?"

"Don't say that." Mrs. Xiao retorted, "We should think so, now, the Wan family has so many daughters, we have caught up with all the twelve engagements, and General Han also has four As for the five daughters, we should have given birth to a few more daughters, each of whom has to recognize his husband and son-in-law, and it is not considered to be greedy for other people's gifts!"

Cheng Shi shouted: "Do you think it's about the wealth and silk? It's vision, vision! When they looked at me, they all looked at me with pity.

Mrs. Xiao was speechless. In fact, she had been sighed several times by the relatives and noble ladies who were close to her on weekdays. She felt that even if she lost her husband and remarried, it would be nothing more than that.

…

Shaoshang rested at home for seven or eight days. During this period, he went to Ban's house to see Cheng Cha's working environment and relationship, and invited Yuan Shen's parents for a dinner, and then bid farewell to his second uncle The husband and wife and the third uncle husband and wife, and finally she returned to the palace with several bags of dried vegetables, dried meat, dried meat, sugar plums and other snacks. Cheng Shaogong unhappy kept following her to the gate of the palace, and in the end he didn't say anything - this guy seemed to have an opinion on her and Yuan Shen's marriage, repeatedly asked 'are you serious' a few times, and then couldn't say three things. Six to nine.

In the alley of the palace, Shaoshang accidentally met the prince Ziduan who was sitting and walking, he raised his chin as usual, and began to preach: "Mr. Cheng, I heard that you and Yuan Shizhong have been engaged to marry, This is very good. From the chaos of the emperor to the unification of the present day, after decades of military disasters, countless casualties among the people and people who died of illness and starvation, it is a proper rest and recuperation to appease the people's livelihood. Marriage is a great relationship between people, and it is about The importance of reproducing people... Cheng Shi, are you listening to Gu!"

Oh, by the way, the fourth prince got married last year, and His Highness seems to have said these words too!"

Prince Ziduan said displeased: "Is it wrong to say this alone?"

—How can people reproduce if they don’t get married, how can they resume production if they don’t reproduce, how can Guotai and the people celebrate together in peace, what an ignorant little girl! It is said that today's young people are becoming more and more ignorant of what it means, especially his brother-like Huo Budo, who drags and shoves, and still has no children after the delay. How can one be worthy of the righteous path in the world!

"Yes, yes, what Your Highness said is no longer correct! The concubine must obey His Highness's will." Shao Shang dared to have any objection. Now they are in the East Palace.

In Yong'an Palace, she was welcomed like a returning overseas Chinese. How should I put it? Although her physique often causes accidents, she will never be deserted where Cheng Shaoshang is there, even if she catches a private fight, she can be reviewed It will be a township party.

The Empress Dowager Xuan sat on the couch and listened to Shaoshang’s anecdotes about these days—

Three years ago, Cheng Xiao and his wife wanted to say kiss to Cheng Shaogong. Who knew that Cheng Shaogong gave himself a dozen hexagrams in a row, saying that his red star had not moved. Wife, she beats three times a day and doesn't give her food, and she refuses to agree to a blind date, so she has been delayed until now.

Wan Laobo was so excited and wanted to take a concubine, but was unanimously rejected by his mother and his wife and concubine, 'Anyway, you don't need to have a son, so what kind of concubine can you take, save money and silk for the children to marry women', Lao Wan Lei Niu... But this is not uncommon. Many parents in the world forget their children when they have grandchildren. My condolences to the old man.

Yin Yan'e gave birth to a daughter in her first child. Compared to Wan Qiqi's success in one fell swoop, she cried a lot, and Cheng Yong had to coax her, 'Our family lacks a daughter, and the prosperous father and brother are promoted and rich, which family The son is better than that', Yin Yan'e then burst into laughter, but it was only a few years later that she realized that her husband kowtowed dozens of times at the moon that night, and prayed, "Yuyou is too pitiful, I would rather my father and brother not get promoted and rich, and the baby daughter should also obey." Marry well and have children'.

For a concubine, Wan Eqi went out with a knife but couldn't beat others. The most hateful thing was that not only did his parents not support him, but he also poached the walls. Uncle Wan, needless to say, thinks that a man's concubine is just like eating and drinking. Although Mrs. Wan loves it Daughter, but she is grateful for the kindness of the Cheng family, and she also feels that she should not restrain her son too much; Wan Qiqi was crying angrily, and A Song, who realized it later, knew that the backyard was on fire, so he went to the girl to compete and said, 'You win. I'll accept you', the girl naturally couldn't beat her, so she clutched her wound and asked if Wan Qiqi could beat you. Brother A Song replied very strangely, 'I like Qiqi, and if she can't beat you, marry her , I don't like you, why do you still wrong yourself if you can't beat me' - well, there is no problem with the logic.

…

The Empress Dowager Xuan kept listening with a smile. The spring outside was getting better, but she lost the strength to get up and go to the porch to sit down. He continued to live his life happily, sometimes the chef of Yong'an Palace made delicious food and put it in a bowl and sent it to Yuan Shen to show that he was a very conscientious fiancée.

Every time she sees this kind of situation, the Queen Mother Xuan will show a look of disappointment: "...Remember that before, even when it was raining outside, you wouldn't worry about whether Zisheng brought rain gear." Or Yes, "A few times I sent you to the Shangshu Desk to deliver things, in fact, I wanted Zisheng to see you."

The first few times Shao Shang endured it, but when she couldn't bear it anymore, she was dissatisfied and said, "Niangniang, why do you keep mentioning him."

Mom, isn't this the law of the predecessor - when he is naive and impulsive and doesn't understand care, I accompany him, solve him, correct him, when he finally becomes a mature, tolerant and responsible excellent man At that time, the girl next to him was no longer me.

Very good, now she can bring this rule seamlessly, Huo Budoubt is the unfortunate ex-boyfriend who paid a lot, Yuan Shen is the one who went down the mountain to pick peaches.

"Have I been mentioning Zisheng all the time?" The Queen Mother Xuan suddenly said, "Oh, I'm old, and my memory is not very good... But unless Yuan Shen resigns from office, or you stay out of the house, Otherwise, you and Zisheng will always meet in the future."

What!" When Huo Buxuan came back, maybe she would be pregnant with one and the other, and she would be disappointed when things changed when they met, and if she died, it would be a replica of Huangfu Lao'er and Mrs. Sang, so what else could it be.

"Can you really do not complain, be polite?" Empress Dowager Xuan sat up straight.

Shao Shang said flatly: "Naturally!"

"Alright." Empress Dowager Xuan leaned back softly, "It's just that I didn't expect you to decide so quickly..."

Shao Shang said: "Look at what the lady said, I hate Momo Haw the most in my life. Since I've made up my mind, why delay and hesitate."

"Yes..." The Queen Mother slowly closed her eyes.

The weakness of the Empress Dowager Xuan is visible to the naked eye. , The Empress was silent for a long time.

"...After all, this day has come." The emperor was mentally prepared for his ex-wife's physical condition, but it was still difficult to accept when it came to an end.

Shao Shang said: "Your Majesty, don't be sad, the empress said that although you can't compare with the birthday star, you can't be considered a short life."

The emperor hesitated and said, "God knows... Is he resenting me?"

Shao Shang thought about it for a while, then said softly: "Your Majesty, there is nothing to complain about in this life. The concubine has been with the empress for many years, and she knows what she is thinking. To be honest, the empress There are many people complaining in her heart—she complained about why Taigong Xuan passed away so early, leaving their orphans, widows and mothers without protection; she complained about why His Majesty was of the same clan as Lord Gan An, otherwise it would be her turn to marry; Complaining about yourself, why can't you be more aggressive and resolute, why do you have to marry obediently... Your Majesty, among many people, you are the one who complains the least. Empress often said that when she was a child, she had seen starvation and turmoil, and she had seen thousands of miles of bones. She knows that if His Majesty is only for her own sake, he will never let his wife marry another, but with thousands of lives at stake, nothing can be done."

The emperor was told by the girl that his heart was sour and turned his head: "You said it well." After a while, he turned back and smiled, "A Heng, do you remember when Shaoshang first entered the palace? Come on, you can't even do salute properly, talk and do things out of order, you're just a wild girl. I didn't expect that she has grown into an adult now."

The Empress Yue nodded and said, "Shao Shang, has the Queen Mother ever resented me?"

Shao Shang smiled: "Queen Empress, Xuan Niangniang has complained about many people in her heart, but only you have not complained; do you believe it?"

Empress Yue looked at the girl's eyes for a while, then smiled slowly: "...I believe it."

The old man's heart dropped, and he let out a sigh of relief: "Okay, Shao Shang, over the years, you have taken care of the Queen Mother of Huai'an in every possible way, and both I and the queen have seen it, next time When Yue Zisheng comes back, the Empress Dowager Xuan will hold a banquet in Yong'an Palace..."

Shao Shang hummed in both ears, but he couldn't hear it clearly, and after a long time he said: "Your Majesty, Master Huo is coming back next month?"

The emperor said in amazement: "You don't know! Although I haven't announced it to everyone, the Empress Dowager Xuan knows."

"Yes, but, do you remember... a year or two?" Shaoshang stammered.

The emperor's eyes widened: "Zisheng is guarding the border town, not to go to prison, of course he can come back if something happens!" He is the boss and has the final interpretation of all edicts.

Empress Yue pushed him: "Shao Shang, it was the Queen Mother Xuan who said that her time was running out, and she wanted to see Zisheng before she left."

After coming out of Changqiu Palace, Shaoshang rushed back to Yong'an Palace to question his boss, and the Queen Mother replied calmly: "Yes, it was I who asked His Majesty to let Zisheng come back. "

"Why is this!" Shao Shang wailed.

"Didn't Your Majesty tell you? I don't have much time, I want to see Zisheng before I leave."

Shao Shang feels that life is always joking with him, and whenever something good is just a step away, there will always be side effects. She sat in front of Empress Dowager Xuan and said in a good voice, "Niangniang, let's talk nicely. A few years ago... er, three years ago, I remember that Niangniang cried one day in the middle of the night and said, 'Zisheng, this heartless Shuzi, I don't want to see him again'. Niangniang, have you forgotten?"

"Because the King of the East Sea fell ill after resigning himself to the throne, that is my anger, and it is uncountable."

Shao Shang is also a woman, but at this time she really wanted to shout, "Women are really fickle."

The Empress Dowager Xuan said: "It was when you left the palace and went home, I had nothing to do, I remembered Zisheng, and told Your Majesty."

"The Empress said she would never see Your Majesty again!" Shao Shang felt a little unable to control his emotions.

"So, the words of anger -- especially the words of women's anger, can't be counted."

Shao Shang was holding the floor helplessly, feeling that life was more than just joking with himself, it was just a blatant molestation.

When I was a child, my grandfather always taught me to be grateful, thank God for giving us a healthy body and a clear mind, grateful for good weather and good food, alas, I have forgotten all these years. People can’t just remember what they lost. things, and think more about what you have in your hands.”

She smiled, "Although I have lived in Yong'an Palace for the past five years, I am fortunate to have you by my side, always leading me to play and play, as if I have returned to the days when my grandfather was alive. I haven't thanked you yet..."

…”

The more she talked, the more excited she became, "It's a pity that you didn't marry Zisheng, otherwise you would know how much property he has... tsk tsk tsk, the Huo family in Fengxian County is already rich, let's not mention it. , You don't know how much His Majesty has given him in the past ten years. It is time for the courtiers to give advice. Recently, I heard that His Majesty is negotiating with the ministers to spend the fields, hehe, you will know when the time comes."

"Why did you mention him again." Shao Shang has a headache - as the medical doctor's diagnosis results are getting worse and worse, the Empress Dowager Xuan is getting more and more happy, and from time to time she will joke about her dying , even Zhai Lao did not move.

"Okay, let's get down to business." The Queen Mother Xuan said, "Young Shang, Zisheng's Shuzi is hateful, but he used his own life to spell a conclusion that everyone knows - the king of the East Sea can Entrust everything to Zisheng, let him do what he does, and when he becomes emperor in the future, he can also entrust everything to others, and it is unknown when the country changes."

Shao Shang said with doubts: "Yes, Niangniang doesn't blame Huo Busu at all?"

"No wonder." The Queen Mother Xuan sighed, "Compared with the billions of people and the stability of the country, we are all ants. People will die, but people will not die. We will become ashes, but the sun, moon, and stars will live forever. Life is only a few decades, and I no longer hold grudges against Zisheng, and you are the same, let him and yourself."

Shao Shang heard the open-mindedness in her words, but he thought that it was about death, and he couldn't be happy, so he could only mumble: "I saw it too, I saw it Just to get married."

The Queen Mother smiled: "That's good."

"But the maiden..." Shao Shang suddenly thought of something, "Why didn't you tell me about this!"

"Anyway, when you meet, you will be polite, neither complaining nor complaining. What's the difference between talking and not talking?"

"The old man returns to the city, you should know it!"

"Maybe I forgot to say, oh my, I have a headache, Zhai, get the medicine..."

Shao Shang didn't know how she got out of Yong'an Palace. She walked around the small lake in front of the palace in confusion for seven or eight times, and finally waited for Yuan Shen to come to look for her from Shangshu Desk.

Yuan Shen's face darkened after listening to Shaoshang's explanation.

Shao Shang couldn't help complaining: "I was deliberately concealed from others. You are in Shangshutai every day, how do you not know!"

"Because His Majesty's recall of Huo Budo was never announced to the ministers." Yuan Shen said solemnly.

"Why? Ah..." Shaoshang understood.

Huo Budo still has more than one year's 'prison sentence', if the emperor announces to the ministers early, it will inevitably be long-winded. Block the mouth of the courtiers, and nothing will be lost.

Mom, sure enough, those who engage in politics don’t save fuel! She looked at Yuan Shen again, thinking that this was also a 'political' person, and in a moment she understood what the emperor meant.

"What are you going to do now?" Yuan Shen raised his head.

"What should I do? Say goodbye to be safe, say goodbye and leave, say goodbye when you invite a banquet, and ask if you want a sour plum soup with tangerine peel to help digestion, but add sugar ? Otherwise, what else can…”

Yuan Shen couldn't help laughing, and said with a stern face: "I think you want to quit your relatives as soon as you hear the old man returning."

"Do you want to quit?"

"Of course not!"

"I don't want to retire either, who loves to retire at every turn!" Shaoshang laughed, and when she noticed Yuan Shen's playful gaze, she scolded, "Oh, I have already retreated twice. In short, there are only three things, God will not let me not get married this time!"

Yuan Shen stared at her for a long time, and finally exhaled: "Forget it, we can wait as usual."
