Chapter 68

On the second day after Hua Yang returned to the palace, relatives of the emperor came into the palace to see her one after another outside the palace.

The first one to arrive was An Le long princess, who is Hua Yang's aunt. The "good thing" that she and Chen Jingzong often soaked in the lotus bowl was a gift from An Le long princess.

An Le long princess raises noodles, even among the princesses, it is considered deviant, and Empress Qi is a model of women's virtues in the world.The An Le long princess was not very good at it, so after a brief meeting, Empress Qi asked her daughter to entertain the long princess in the Qifeng Palace.

An Le long princess is only ten years older than Hua Yang. The two are aunts and nephews in name, but in fact they feel more like good sisters.

Arriving at Qifeng Palace, after Princess Anle took her seat, she looked at Huayang with a smile on her face.

Hua Yang couldn't control his face, he was on fire.

Princess Anle smiled and said: "We've been married for more than two years, why are you so thin-skinned, fortunately, I want to discuss with you some things that were not easy to discuss when you were a little girl."

Hua Yang took a look at his aunt: "I'm also a little girl's face now, so you should keep those words in your own mind, but don't tell me."

Princess Anle: "You don't know what I'm going to say, why did you tell me to shut up early?"

Hua Yang turned his face away and pretended to be puffed up.

An Le long princess likes to tease this beautiful niece, so she came to Hua Yang, gently squeezed Hua Yang's shoulder, and teased in a low voice: "How about it, have you run out of the good things my aunt sent you last time?"

Hua Yang lowered his head, twisted his sleeves and said, "How can it be so fast, there is still half of it left."

Princess Anle: "Fifty in total, how much is the smaller half?"

Hua Yang recalled, and said uncertainly: "Sixteen or seven? I didn't count them, it's probably that many."

An Le long princess raised her head slightly, rolled her eyes, and quickly estimated.Calculated by using thirty-four, one can be used ten times, that is, in the one and a half years from the first month of last year to now, niece and niece-in-law...

She hadn't calculated the result yet, Hua Yang guessed what she was doing, immediately became annoyed, scratched her aunt's armpit and refused to allow her to calculate again.

Once An Le long princess was interrupted by her, it can't be counted for the time being, but it can be guessed that the niece and the young couple should still be very affectionate.

"Love is good. When you got married, the first time I saw Chen Silang, I thought that boy was good-looking. At first glance, he was more useful than Pavilion Elder Chen."

Hua Yang: ...

Is the "moderate use" in the mouth of the aunt her understanding of the middle use in the court?

She quickly changed the subject and asked about her aunt's life in the past two years.

An Le long princess sighed: "That's it. No matter how handsome the people in the mansion are, I get tired of looking at them every day. It's not so easy to find new people outside. Those who are capable don't bother to serve my aunt, and those who have no ability don't care about them."It's hard to pick out a good-looking guy... I get angry when I mention this, some men are obviously crooked, but they are still very confident, thinking that I can fall in love with him!"

Hua Yang: ...

Listen, my aunt's troubles are different from those of ordinary women!

However, my aunt was only in her early thirties, and she was born with a beautiful face, so of course ordinary men couldn't get into my aunt's eyes.

"What about you, now that you're back in Beijing, are you going to have a baby right away, or wait a few more years?" An Le long princess returned to her chair and chatted while drinking tea, "If it's the latter, my aunt will give you another baby."Save a box of that baby."

Hua Yang's heart moved slightly.

That so-called baby could not last ten times on Chen Jingzong's body alone, and it broke after about seven times. Of course, this was what Chen Jingzong disliked when the thing broke for the first time. Hua Yang didn't specifically count each timeHow long can one last.

There are a dozen or so left, which is probably enough for them to use until the end of this year.

She blushed and nodded.

An Le long princess understood: "I will write it down, and I will send it to you when I save enough. Let me tell you, you are still smart, like Nan Kang, who was only married a year earlier than you, and gave birth to a daughter the year before last., and now she is pregnant again, every day to prevent her son-in-law from messing around with women outside, I am tired of hearing it, her son-in-law is not very handsome, so she just hangs out, and after she has a baby, she will also raise two handsome guards, Husband and wife each have their own happiness, how wonderful."

Hua Yang just smiled and said nothing.

An Le long princess looked her in the eyes, and asked curiously: "If you don't want a child, Chen Silang is willing? If I were him, I would wish to let you conceive as soon as possible. Only when you give birth to his flesh and blood can his position as consort be considered secure."It's over."

Hua Yang smiled: "I have the final say on this matter, it's useless if he doesn't want to."

Princess Anle: "Well, this looks like a princess, so is he thinking about stealing outside?"

Hua Yang: "He doesn't dare, let's not mention my side. The Chen family's family style is there. If he dares to mess around, Pavilion Elder Chen will not be the first to spare him."

Of course, An Le long princess has also heard about the Chen family, nodded and said: "Although your mother is overbearing and arbitrary, the marriage you arranged for you is not bad, and I can't pick a better oneCome on. That cousin of yours is pretty good, from Yushu Linfeng, it's a pity that we got married early."

Hua Yang was stunned, and then said helplessly: "What are you talking about, my cousin and I have always had a brother-sister relationship, so it's fine if you tease me alone, don't talk nonsense outside."

An Le long princess raised her eyebrows: "Why, are you afraid that your son-in-law will be angry?"

Hua Yang: "He's careless, so why would he mind this, I'm afraid my cousin will misunderstand and ruin her relationship with my cousin."

An Le long princess: "They don't have any feelings for each other. Every time there is a banquet, your cousin and sister-in-law have a bitter face. It can be seen that the relationship between husband and wife is not harmonious."

Hua Yang was a little surprised.

She was raised in the palace, and she didn't meet her cousin Qi Jin very often. Later, when her cousin got married, she only saw the couple a few times a year. The deepest impression of her cousin Tian was that she was gentle and beautiful.It's easy to get along with, and don't know much about other aspects.

Could it be that what happened to my cousin in the past two years?But no matter what the inside story is, it has nothing to do with her who is far away in Ling Zhou. Even in the past, my cousin never behaved more than brother and sister towards her.

As soon as the aunt and nephew mentioned the relatives of Huayang's mother's family, Empress Qi sent someone to spread the word, saying that Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Hou, and Mrs. Shizi of the Marquis of Wuqing's mansion are already in Fengyi Palace at this moment, and she asked Hua Yang to come and entertain them.

Marquis Qi Wenyuan of Wuqing is Hua Yang's uncle, and the three generations of wives who came today are her grandmother, aunt and cousin Tian.

"Since they're here, Panpan will entertain them first. I'm leaving the palace first. When you are free, come to my place for tea."

Hua Yang nodded, sent his aunt away, and immediately went to Fengyi Palace.

Hua Yang's grandmother, Mrs. Qi Tai, is fifty-nine years old this year. Her hair is still black and she is energetic. Wearing a navy blue satin beige, she looks dignified and dignified. Although there are wrinkles on her face, she can still see the beauty of her youth..

"Hey, our Princess Panpan is back, my grandmother misses it so much!"

Seeing Hua Yang walking in, Mrs. Qi stood up smiling.

Hua Yang quickly ran over and hugged the delicate old lady who was half a head shorter than her. The queen mother looked very similar to her grandmother, because of this similarity, Hua Yang was very close to this grandmother even though she hadn't seen it much.The intimacy brought about by blood ties.

After spoiling with his grandmother, Hua Yang called "Auntie" to Mrs. Hou who was waiting at the side.

Madam Hou looked at her respectfully, looked at her and praised: "I haven't seen you for two years, the princess has become more and more beautiful, she is really like the fairy in the sky."

Hua Yang smiled and turned his gaze to his cousin Tian's face behind his aunt.

Hua Yang was taken aback by this meeting, as his aunt said, Tian's cheeks were thin, and even makeup could hardly conceal his haggardness and exhaustion, as if he had suffered from a serious illness.

She was shocked by Tian's haggardness, and Tian's eyes were pierced by the princess's beauty, he smiled awkwardly, and lowered his head as if he was ashamed.

Mrs. Hou explained for Hua Yang: "She is not blessed. Last year she finally got pregnant but had a miscarriage. She was too sad and never recovered."

After being reminded by this, Hua Yang vaguely remembered that something like this happened in her previous life, but she didn't care enough about her cousin and sister-in-law, and didn't take it too seriously.

"Sorrow to my cousin, you are still young, take care of yourself first, and the child will come again."

Hua Yang comforted softly.

Tian Shi nodded bitterly.

Empress Qi sat at the main seat, her eyes swept over Tian's indifferently.

The daughter was raised in the palace, and she seldom had contact with foreign men, and she was very late in her emotional development. At the age of fourteen or fifteen, she didn't realize that her nephew Qi Jin looked at her with affection.

The daughter couldn't see it, but Empress Qi noticed it early.

Qi Jin was her nephew from her natal family, who was born with a dignified appearance and both civil and military skills. Of course, Empress Qi liked this nephew very much, but a nephew was a nephew, so he was not suitable to be a son-in-law.

The Qi family is destined to be her and the crown prince's help, and there is no need to marry again, and her son-in-law, in addition to his looks and talents, must be worthy of his daughter, and his family background must also be beneficial to major events.

In order not to let Qi Jin fall too deep, and even arouse her daughter's love, as soon as Empress Qi found out about this, she immediately instructed her mother to arrange a marriage for Qi Jin as soon as possible.

Mother understood her concerns, and quickly fell in love with Tian.

Empress Qi was satisfied that Qi Jin obviously liked her daughter, but did not impulsively come to her to beg for anything, and calmly married Tian.

It's a pity that she and her mother were able to arrange for Qi Jin to marry Tian, but they couldn't force Qi Jin to show love to Tian. After four or five years of marriage, Tian only conceived once, and she still hasn't kept it.

Empress Qi lowered her eyes, picked up the tea bowl and took a shallow sip.

Mrs. Qi and others sat in Fengyi Palace for half an hour, and then they resigned.

As soon as they left, Concubine Lin and her daughter, Princess Nan Kang, came again before Empress Qi could say something intimate to her daughter.

Princess Nan Kang is only one year older than Hua Yang, just as Concubine Lin Gui has been fighting for favor with Empress Qi for many years.beloved princess.

It's a pity that Concubine Lin's mother and daughter's calculations were all in vain, and no one was able to get what they wanted. Even Concubine Lin's greatest reliance on King Yu failed in the fight for the crown prince, and she went to Luoyang to become a feudal vassal.

Concubine Lin Guifei had nothing to look at. When Hua Yang looked at Nan Kang, she first noticed Nan Kang's abdomen, which looked like she was six or seven months pregnant.

Sensing her gaze, Nan Kang smiled and touched his stomach, then looked at Hua Yang, and said unexpectedly: "My sister has been married to her son-in-law for two years, and she got rid of her clothes early last year, so I thought I would hear good news about my sister."

Hua Yang smiled lightly: "In the scorching summer, I wish I could relax, but my sister came into the palace to see me on such a hot day, which really touched me."

My aunt was anxious to see her because she missed her. The grandmother's family both missed her and had concerns about respect and etiquette. They needed to show how much the Hou Fu valued her.

As for Nankang, there is no sisterhood between the two, but in order to show his elder sister's concern for his younger sister in front of his father, Nan Kang had to brave the scorching heat to come here even if he didn't want to.

If Nan Kang is more favored than Hua Yang, and the princess has more face, Nan Kang will not be tired of this trip.

Nan Kang understands this truth better than anyone else, so Hua Yang's simple sentence just hit her unwillingness!

She gritted her teeth secretly, and she had to pull a smile on her face: "Why are you touched, my sister loves you so much, she was spoiled and spoiled in the palace since she was a child, and she actually wants to go to the remote place in Ling Zhou with Pavilion Elder Chen's family to mourn.He suffered a great grievance over there, and was almost taken captive by King Xiang."

Speaking of the latter, Nan Kang gloated again.

Hua Yang still smiled: "The mourning is voluntary. As for the grievances that King Xiang made me suffer, my father rewarded me with the king's whip. I counted it as a blessing in disguise. I have already put that grievance behind me, and my sister doesn't have to do it for nothing.miss."

Nan Kang: ...
