The Concubine in the Palace_The Feast of Masks【Complete】(201)

Xiaobao nodded, "I am the only one who has it, no one else has it. And Yueyue, it is wrong to look at other people's little Ding Ding, you can only say this to me in the future, not to others."

Xiaobao has repeated this many times, Yueyue nodded obediently, and then said something shocking: "I only look at Xiaobao's little Ding Ding."

Although this was very strange, Xiaobao couldn't help but smile twistedly and nodded.

Outside the house, Qiao, who was wrapped in a cloak, finally put her mind at ease after watching the two dolls playing together through the window for a while.

Beside her stood Sun Mang. He shouldn't have come, but Qiao really missed her daughter, so she came before leaving.

Qiao Xiuli finally got the punishment she deserved. Although Qiao didn't know how Sun Mang dealt with her, she knew Sun Mang's methods and naturally didn't think in a good direction. Qiao Anhe was sent back to Jiangnan, and Qiao also sent a letter to Qiao Laoye and Qiao Da Nainai. With what Qiao Xiuli had done to her, Qiao Anhe would not end well.

Although revenge cannot implicate innocent people, the book boy belongs to Qiao Anhe. Qiao Xiuli, a weak woman, could do such an incredible and vicious thing. If she said that she planned this alone, no one would believe it, and Qiao Anhe was naturally angry. Even if he begged for mercy, no one believed him.

After solving these two things, the next urgent thing to do is to treat Qiao's illness.

Before, Sun Mang went to see the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, and the two had a very unpleasant quarrel. I don't know what happened. Sun Mang went back and told Qiao that he would take her to live in the manor for a few days.

In fact, this is good. The environment in the manor is quiet, which is conducive to recuperation. It can also be regarded as a way to relax. Before leaving, Qiao couldn't let Yueyue go, so she begged Sun Mang to come and see her daughter.

It was Qiao's decision to put Yueyue in the Jinwang Mansion. After she went to the manor, she was mainly for treatment, and she would definitely not be able to take care of her daughter. Moreover, she was very sick, so she couldn't take Yueyue with her. But she was not at ease leaving it in the mansion, so it was better to leave it in the Prince of Jin's mansion.

"Don't you want to see Yueyue?" Yao Niang asked.

Qiao shook her head. She was wrapped in a thick cloak from head to toe, and covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief. People who didn't know would think that she was too afraid of the cold, but those who knew would understand what was going on.

"It disappeared. Look at me like this. Yueyue will be scared if she sees it."

Yao Niang looked bleak and sighed in her heart. She naturally knew what Qiao Xiuli had done. She really didn't expect that such a weak woman could use such a heinous method to treat a clan sister who had always been good to her and her family.

The method was sinister and creepy, and it was hard to guard against. If it weren't for Liu Liangyi, I'm afraid no one would have thought that she would use such a harmful method.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of Yueyue for you."

"I believe you, if I don't believe you, you won't give Yueyue to you. Thank you, Yaoyao, if it weren't for you, I can't imagine what I would be like now. I might have died... You don't know, at that time I felt that I couldn't hold on any longer, even if I didn't die, I didn't want to live... I got that kind of disease, dragged down the child, was covered in filth, and was disgusting. If it weren't for you, I might have given it to the wrong person now, and my husband and children would have been given to others..."

Sun Mang stood by and didn't say anything, only then he interrupted and said: "Okay, don't say anything."

"Yes, don't mention these bad things, after all, they didn't happen. You take good care of yourself, and when you come back, I will definitely help you raise Yueyue white and plump."

Qiao burst into laughter, she laughed and coughed again, turned around and buried her head in Sun Mang's arms, Sun Mang patted her back and said goodbye.

Yao Niang and King Jin sent the two to the back door, and King Jin and Sun Mang didn't say anything from beginning to end.

Sun Mang helped Qiao onto the carriage, hesitated for a moment, and looked back at King Jin: "Don't interfere with the spring examination in February."

This was a very short sentence, without a beginning or an end, but King Jin's eyes flashed.

During this period, the Sun family's carriage had already gone far away, and Liu Liangyi also left with him. He accepted Sun Mang's request to treat Qiao.

"I hope she can come back well." Yao Niang sighed a little.

Although Liu Liangyi said that he was 60% to 70% sure, tuberculosis is a terminal illness after all, and no one dared to guarantee whether it can be cured. Qiao was so gentle and innocent, Yao Niang hoped that she would be well, and good people should be rewarded.

King Jin patted her hands and said nothing.

…

In the east wing, Yueyue said to Xiaobao, "Brother Xiaobao, I seem to hear mother coughing."

Xiaobao glanced at the window and said to Yueyue, "You must have heard it wrong. Didn't my mother say that Aunt Qiao went to treat her illness? When the weather gets warmer next year, Aunt Qiao will come back. You live in my house, I will play with you, and there is Huahua..."

As he spoke, he picked up Huahua and forced Huahua's furry face to face Yueyue. Fortunately, Huahua is a cat and can't laugh, otherwise he would have pulled a smile out of it.

"If you get tired of playing with Huahua, there is Erbao. Let's go, I'll take you to see Erbao, he must have woken up."

Xiaobao threw Huahua down, got off the kang, and stretched out a hand to Yueyue.

Yueyue immediately didn't care about her mother, and slid off the kang, and then Chun'er and Qiu'er watched the young master take Miss Yueyue to play with his younger brother Erbao.

The King of Jin sent Yao Niang back to Rongxi Courtyard and then went to the front yard.

Others might not understand what Sun Mang said, but he understood what it meant.

Seriously speaking, everyone may want to make plans for the February Spring Examination, not just Prince An. But the plans of others are different from those of Prince An. Prince An is now in the limelight, and it is the time when everyone adds fuel to the fire. However, if the fire burns too big, there are both advantages and disadvantages.

The disadvantage is that it is very likely that he will burn himself to death if he is not careful.

This is Prince An's opportunity, and it is also an opportunity for others.

Prince An is the second in line, and he is the eldest except for the crown prince. In recent years, as the crown prince has become more and more useless, Prince An has always acted like a kind brother to his superiors and subordinates, and more than once, Emperor Hongjing used him as a comparison when scolding the crown prince.

In this regard, Prince An has always felt ashamed, claiming that he is the elder brother, although he is the second elder brother, he is also the elder brother to his younger brothers, and he is older than the other princes, so he should make up for the shortcomings.

As for the outside world, Prince An has always been magnanimous and respectful to the wise and humble, and has a very good reputation in the court, and is known as the wise king.

Therefore, during this heated discussion in the court, some people recommended that Prince An should be made the crown prince, and many people were not surprised by this. The crown prince was abolished, and the grandson became the prince of Prince Hui. After all, they were separated by a generation and obviously no longer had an advantage. Although the King of Dai was also born in the palace, he was not good at speaking and was low-key. Among the princes, he was the least noticeable one.

In terms of literature, he was not as good as Prince Yong, and in terms of martial arts, he was not as good as Prince Jin. Not as good as Prince An in all aspects, not as sharp as Prince Lu, very mediocre.

For the royal family, moderation means mediocrity.

So the possibility of Prince An ascending to the top is very great.

But Prince An's great opportunity means that he is an obstacle to others. Mr. Hei suggested more than once that Prince Jin take advantage of the chaos. Although Mr. Liu always likes open plots, not like Mr. Hei likes to use yin, he has to admit that this is a good opportunity.

Once he succeeds, Prince An's building will collapse. Without this mountain in front, the people behind will show up.

The King of Jin never paid attention to details, nor did he follow the doctrine that a gentleman should do something or not. For him, it was common to fish in troubled waters, so he was naturally persuaded to be a little tempted, and even ordered his subordinates to start to move.

But Sun Mang said this.

Sun Mang was undoubtedly the confidant of Emperor Hongjing. If he was not a confidant, he would not be in charge of the position of the commander of the Twelve Guards of the Imperial Guards and the commander of the Beijing Guard Command.

What was his intention in saying this? Could it be that the father...

While the King of Jin was thinking, Mr. Liu, Mr. Hei and Li Maotian had arrived.

They saluted first and then sat down at the lower position. The King of Jin had already made up his mind. At this time, his back was slightly sweaty, and he was all shocked.

"Please withdraw the people from Prince An."

Although the King of Jin spoke briefly, his meaning was clear.

Mr. Hei asked subconsciously: "Why is it?"

The King of Jin did not cover it up, but repeated Sun Mang's words.

Mr. Liu clenched the feather fan in his hand and said hesitantly: "Your Highness, do you think--"

The King of Jin nodded.

For a while, Mr. Liu's face kept changing, and it was obvious that something was playing in his mind. Obviously, he made a decision quickly and bowed to the King of Jin: "Your Highness is decisive and wise."

Mr. Hei still didn't understand what the two were talking about, but this move was proposed by him, so he had to pay attention to it.

Mr. Liu came forward to explain: "Don't forget that Your Highness is not fighting at this time. Since you are not fighting, then don't fight."

"But this is not called fighting."

"Why is it not called fighting? Does fighting have to be for something that you fight for? If you trip someone up and trip him up, it is not considered fighting? It's all fighting, at least in the eyes of the emperor."

"Okay, you big black egg, listen to your Highness and Mr. Li." Li Maotian said.

"Forget it, whatever you say is what it is."

It was soon approaching the end of the year, and the capital was noisy and lively everywhere.

People walking on the street were all smiling. Even the coldest winter could not stop the joy of the New Year.

At the same time, every household was busy, including the Prince of Jin's Mansion. Yao Niang was busy with household affairs, including preparing for the New Year, cleaning the old and dusting the courtyards, buying new clothes for the servants, and various New Year gifts.
