MTL - The Royal’s Cute Little Wife-Chapter 12 Lantern Festival
The visitor is King Dongping.
Some time ago, the queen mother Gao Shou, the king of Dongping rushed from the land to Beijing to celebrate the queen ’s birthday. Now she rushed back to Dongping with her concubine, passing by Yidu County, Qingzhou, and dragged her to visit Xie Liqing. King Dongping and Xie Liqing have dealt with each other and admiring each other is a rare friendship.
Princess Dongping was unwell, so she didn't take her out with her, only one side concubine.
The side concubine Qin is about the same age as Leng, with a good-looking appearance. She looks like a willow and is as thin as a gust of wind. She held an infant baby in her arms and looked only months old.
Leng's and Xie Liqing met in front, and Xie Yuan also followed, and originally wanted to make fun of it, but Wang Dongping actually gave her two beautiful lotus lamps. She took it happily, thanked sweetly, turned around and told Leng's to take it back to play with her sister.
Leng didn't object, and touched her head. "Go."
Before leaving, Xie Yi just looked at the upper concubine Qin. She bent her eyes innocently and smiled at Qin's. However, Qin's gaze was a bit complicated, and she kept watching her walk outside the Linghua Gate before lonely looking back.
With a lantern in his hand, Xie Xuan came to the backyard cheerfully, just to see Xie Rong and Xie Xing were holding a porcelain bowl, and they were sitting under the porch to eat the Lantern Festival. There is a small rosewood snail on the bottom of the gallery. The floor is covered with thick velvet blankets and the stove is burning around. They are sitting on each side, not to mention how pleasant it is.
Xie Yi was a little angry, came to them anxiously: "Brother and Axue didn't call me for the Lantern Festival? I want to eat too!"
Xie Rong put down the bowl and asked the maid to serve another bowl of red bean paste.
He came here just now and saw that Xie Xun was just eating the Lantern Festival, and there was no adult to take care of him, so he just sat down and ate with her. I didn't expect to be seen by Xie Yi, the little guy kind of minded, and raised his cheeks to sit between him and Xie Xun, the little mouth was raised high.
Xie Xun took a chubby plump Lantern Lantern with a silver spoon and brought it to her mouth, a little bit guilty and flatteringly, "Sister eat."
She looked for a moment, opened her pink mouth and ate it.
After a while, Pisces brought her bowl up and put it in front of her. She took two bites, and she was finally not angry. Then she remembered that there were two lotus lamps. She picked up the lotus lamp behind her and put it on the table. One was pushed to Xie Xuan and the other was left to herself. "This is from King Dongping, please see if you like it?"
Xie Xun's eyes were bright. Although she liked the lotus lamp very much, she was more obsessed with eating. After eating the Lantern Festival in the bowl, she reached out to reach the lotus lamp. The lotus lamp has three layers, and each layer is painted with different colors. When the wick inside is lit, the petals on the outside are reflected in colorful and beautiful.
The sisters couldn't help it, and they played in the yard on the spot.
The two little guys ran from one end to the other, and a clear laugh passed to the next Li's house, so that Li Yu, who was eating, heard clearly.
Li Yu took a bite of the Lantern Festival, and frowned her brow.
What's so happy? Can't you laugh softly?
Since returning to the streets, the parents of the two have not allowed them to go out again. Most of them are scared, and even Xie Wei rarely leaves the house. Xie Liqing and Leng Shi came to the Li House to thank him, and even gave a lot of gifts, thanking Li Yu for bringing Xie Yuan back from the street. Xie Wei didn't come. I heard that she was frightened. She was a bit timid recently.
After hearing the laughter just now, why didn't Li Yu think she was timid?
Isn't it lively?
In the evening, King Dongping brought his concubine to leave, but encountered a heavy snowfall.
The snow fell unpredictably, and the snow fell from the sky fluttering down, and the snow fell down, and a thin layer was laid on the ground in a blink of an eye.
Looking at the sky, it seems that there is even greater snow at night. King Dongping had to stay in Xiefu temporarily for the sake of safety, and then set off when it was fine tomorrow.
Fortunately, there were many houses in Xiefu. Xie Liqing hurriedly picked up a few empty houses, burned the stove, and smoked the bedding and velvet blankets. They were cleaned inside and out, so he invited King Dongping to live. The side concubine Qin lived in the West Chamber, because with her children, Leng's assigned another puppet to take care of him.
She was Xie's nursing mother. She had a lot of experience in caring for her children, because she had been with him for a long time and was well respected in the government.
Qin placed the child on the bed and sat in front of the dressing table for a while. Without a plan to rest, he put on his fox fur cloak and went outside. Chen Yan followed and handed the stove up. "It's cold outside, and my mother is careful."
It was snowing outside all the time. She stood at the door and looked for a while, her eyes were hazy, I wonder whether it was freezing or something, and her face became paler.
Chen Wei felt strange, so he stopped no longer, and stood with her at the door.
Shaoqi gathered her fur on her shoulders and asked casually, "What is Mrs. Xie doing at this time?"
Chen Yan replied: "Mrs. is talking with the second girl and the third girl in the hall."
She nodded and asked, "Is Master Xie not in the house on such a cold day?"
Chen Yi felt strange in his heart, but he didn't show it on the face, "Master is busy with business, and now I should read in the study."
A Dongping king's side concubine, for no reason, cared about what her old lady did. Chen Ye had to be more attentive, but the questions behind Qin's were very normal. It was nothing more than household chores, such as how Leng usually brought children, what he did, how he got along with Xie Liqing, and so on.
She is a child who has just given birth, and it makes sense to ask these questions.
Chen Yi answered them one by one. She stood by the door for a while, and soon cold invaded her body. She couldn't help sneezing.
Chen Ye was going to ask a doctor, but Qin said, "My daughters are not familiar with Qingzhou, so it is better to go away, so as not to delay time."
The side concubine made a speech, and as a subordinate there was no disobedience. Chen Ying answered, first went to ask Lengshi, and then went to the doctor on the street.
When she returned half an hour later, the door of Qin's room was closed tightly, and the girl-in-law who was standing at the door said, "My mother-in-law has fallen asleep. Let's come back tomorrow."
Isn't it cold? Don't you need to see a doctor?
Chen Xuan looked puzzled and stood uncertain at the door. She was a subordinate, and she did not dare to break in to disturb Fang Fei's sleep, but she was afraid that Fang Fei's illness would affect her. After hesitating for a while, he took a long sigh and turned to the main room to tell Lengshi about it.
The charcoal fire in the study was so strong that it warmed the whole body.
Xie Liqing sat in front of the top case to handle official business, read the case in the past few days, sorted out his thoughts, and put notes on paper. Looking up, the snowflakes outside the window were still rushing underground, and a few of them drifted into the study through the fan, fell on the case, and melted in a blink of an eye.
He rubbed his neck and asked someone to bring a cup of tea. After drinking the tea, he sat for a while, then got up and walked out of the study.
The lieutenant propped up an oil-paper umbrella for him. He walked out of the yard in a leisurely manner, and after walking a few steps, he saw a figure in front of Wu Tingting.
The slender figure was blurred by the color of snow, and looked even thinner from a distance.
When I came to look at it, it turned out that it was Qin's side of Dongping King.
Xie Liqing bent down to salute, "I have seen the concubine."
Qin asked him to get up and bend his lips with a smile. "It's so hard to hear that Master Xie is still working in such a cold day."
Xie Liqing smiled calmly, "There is a mother-in-law who cares, but Bo Nian didn't find it hard."
The snow is gradually falling, and the goose feathers are usually wrapped around the two. Xie Liqing wore a lot of snowflakes in a Tibetan blue robe. Qin raised his hand and tried to walk away for him. He escaped without a trace.
He just passed by, no different from when he was young, but a bit more mature and stable, more handsome than when he was a teenager.
Qin's face was a little awkward. He retracted his hands and took the food box in the hands of the girl-in-law. dessert?"
Xie Liqing frowned, and politely refused: "I'm afraid this is irrational ..."
He just wanted to go back to meet his wife Lengshi, hug two lovely daughters, and talk about the family around the fire. It was so cold outside, he didn't want to stay too much, and he didn't want to have anything to do with the people in front of him.
As soon as he said he was leaving, Qin followed with tears in his eyes, "Cousin really has no feelings for me?"
He didn't hear these two words for a long time, Xie Liqing stunned suddenly, his scalp tightened.
He said: "The mother is now the concubine of King Dongping, so you still have to speak carefully."
Before he finished speaking, Qin came to him, his eyes filled with tears, and his thin body shook like leaves falling in the wind. "Are you still angry with me? I'm married to Wang Ye, so it's only now for me Indifferent? "
Where is this and where? He didn't think about it at all ... Xie Liqing glanced at the servants on both sides. He sincerely regarded King Dongping as a friend. If this thing passed to King Dongping, how could he be a man?
After all, I can only blame him for being ignorant.
Qin was a cousin with him. He had lived in Dingguo Government without his parents since childhood. Among the sons of Dingguo Government, she had the best relationship with Xie Liqing, who was often called a cousin.
Xie Liqing was fifteen or sixteen years old at the time, and the age when his sinus was first opened also moved his heart. Occasionally when I meet in private, I will say a few more words, but I also abide by the gentleman's gift, and there is no rule of thumb.
When Xie Liqing was going to confess to her mother and asked to marry Qin, she happened to catch up with Dongping's consort. Qin followed a few girls and was attracted by Zhu Xi Biwa of the Wangfu. When he returned, his soul refused to stay, and he tried his best to attract the attention of the King of Dongping. Eventually, the king of Dongping became the concubine in the house.
At first Xie Liqing was depressed for a while, but passed quickly. Especially after he married Leng Shi, he understood what is true love.
Now he doesn't have much affection for Qin's. When he meets again, he can't stir up any waves, let alone deliberately indifferent to her.
He bypassed her and walked forward: "King Dongping is a good husband, and his mother shouldn't do this kind of thing behind her."
Qin grasped his hand in anxiety, pitifully, "You don't know he treats me ..."
Xie Liqing hadn't had time to wave it away, raising his eyes just to see Leng's and Xie Yan standing at the end of the trail. Leng's face looked at him calmly, but Xie Yan was wrapped tightly and tightly, and looked like a small snowball from a distance. She was wearing a white woolly cloak and a white swan wool hat, and her black eyes were staring curiously under the hat.
Xie Liqing burst into a cold sweat in the winter and quickly shake off Qin's hand. 2k novel reading network
