Detective in the Red Chamber

After a long while, helplessness and sympathy flashed across her dignified and graceful face, and she said in a big and general way: "Once you enter the Hou family, it's as deep as the sea, let alone you and me? My sister has to be more open."

Wei Ying nodded silently, but the sorrow between her brows remained undiminished.

It's no wonder, seeing Cai Shui Rong's agitated look just now, he knew that after he returned, he would definitely ask a famous doctor for consultation. Once the diagnosis was made, it would be extremely difficult for Wei Ying to have an abortion.

At that time, she is afraid that she can only push the boat along with the current and give birth to this evil in her belly.

This kind of involuntary humiliation and despair made her lose control of her emotions and find it hard to control herself.

At this time, although with his usual strong thoughts, he barely restrained himself in front of the princess, but he was really not in the mood to chat with her.

So after the two sat down, they fell into an awkward silence.

Not long after, the curtain opened on the stage outside, and the two of them coincidentally pretended to be watching the play seriously.

…………

Contrary to the awkward atmosphere between the two women, although there was some discord in the middle private room at first, as time went by, the atmosphere became more and more intense.

However, just as the curtain opened downstairs and the main show was about to start, the prince suddenly got up to say it was convenient, and then left the banquet and left the private room.

Shui Rong and Uncle Zhao Guo didn't pay attention, but Sun Shaozong found that after he went out, he didn't go to the stairs, but went to the depths of the corridor under the leadership of Wang Dexiu.

Could it be that the prince has asked others to meet at the Wangjiang Tower?

But who is it that can make the prince condescend so much, and even hide it from Uncle Zhao Guo and himself?

Sun Shaozong was suddenly suspicious, and wanted to find out what happened, but he could only give up in the end considering the dense guards of the Prince's Mansion outside.

Not to mention how cranky he was in the private room.

However, after the prince left the banquet, he didn't actually go very far. Under the guidance of Wang Dexiu, he entered another private room.

As soon as he entered the door, the prince asked impatiently: "Really Wang, have you deduced it clearly?!"

There is only one Taoist priest holding a compass in this private room, and naturally it is the real Wang that the prince said.

He closed his eyes tightly, pinched the Dao seal with his hand, his beard trembled wildly, and muttered something in his mouth, but he didn't pay any attention to the prince.

And the more this was the case, the more the prince dared not move rashly, he could only pace back and forth like ants in a hot pot, his cloudy eyes never leaving the Taoist.

After a long time, Wang Zhenren suddenly showed joy, opened his eyes and bowed to the prince to the end: "Congratulations to Your Highness, He Xi Your Highness, the person who should be prophesied [chen] is indeed by His Highness's side!"

As he said that, he turned around and flicked the table with his sleeve, and rice paper, ink brush, inkstone, etc. appeared on the empty round table out of thin air.

Wang Zhenren was writing on the rice paper with a pen, and said: "Your Highness, the No. 20 Eight Elephants that were solved a few days ago corresponded to the matter of the Supreme Emperor's seizure of the throne in the past - and this No. 20 Nine Elephants are It will show the unseen image!"

But it turned out that he was a dragon and a snake, and what he wrote was No. 20 Jiuxiang of "Tui Bei Tu":

Renchen Xun Xia Zhen Shang Heng

The prophecy said: The branches are very prosperous, and they are the pillars of the country.Hao Hao Xixi, happy and beneficial to all.

The song said: one branch faces north, one branch goes east, and there are south branches, and the same is true.There is really a tradition of three generations of singing the virtues of a virtuous mother in the same universe.

After Wang Zhenren finished writing, he threw the vermilion pen on the ground, and the old man chatted excitedly like a teenager and explained: "This hexagram is the constant hexagram, which means that there is no rebellion in parallel, and no regrets at all times! It is Yin; tremors are thunder, and Yang is Yang. This hexagram of Yang is above Yin, implying that the coordination of Yin and Yang can make things happen.”

"As for the phrase 'The branches are flourishing, they are the pillars of the country. They are prosperous and prosperous, and they are happy and beneficial to everyone.', it is said that my great Zhou has talents of pillars and beams. If we can know people and make good use of them, we will be able to make the country prosperous and the people safe, and the weather will be smooth!"

"And the last sentence 'one branch goes north and one branch goes east, and the south branch is also the same. The same song in the universe and the virtue of a virtuous mother, there is really a legacy of three generations'."

"The first two sentences refer to three people respectively, but the key to interpreting the identities of the three people lies in the third sentence."

"'Unei Tongge Xianmu Virtue' implies that among the three people there must be a woman whose status may even be higher than the rest—and this corresponds to the hexagram image of yin above yang and below yang."

"Your Highness, think about it. Since the talents who are the pillars of the country and can rejuvenate our dynasty, they must be high-ranking ministers in the future. How can ordinary women dare to be superior to them?"

"Among the poor and the poor, only the mother who respects the world can do this!"

Hearing this, the crown prince couldn't help widening his eyes, and blurted out: "So, the hexagram should be on the mother's body?!"

"No!"

Zhenren Wang shook his head, pointed at the three characters 'Yi Zhi Dong', and said, "What do you think of the word 'Dong', Your Highness?"

"East, east..."

The prince was muttering to himself, and inadvertently saw that Wang Zhenren was looking at him with a smile, as if looking at some treasure, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind: "Could it be the meaning of 'East Palace'?!"

"Of course!"

Wang Zhenren laughed, and pointed to the first two sentences and said: "The branch on the north should undoubtedly belong to the grandson Shaozu, while the east refers to the crown prince, that is, the future empress..."

The crown prince interjected, "So, then Nanzhi is Sun Aiqing?"

"It is so, and it can only be so!"

Wang Zhenren resolutely said: "Otherwise, it will be difficult to explain the three words 'kinds are the same'! And judging from this prophecy, the most important of the three is precisely this Nanzhi! Otherwise, there is no need to list it separately out, and put the first two side by side."

Speaking of this, he bowed to the end again: "It is said that the concubine and Sun Shaoqing were connected to each other at the beginning, and it was His Highness who personally instructed it, which shows that there is God's will in the dark!"

"The destiny is lonely, the destiny is lonely!"

The prince's eyes were flushed with excitement at this time, and he clenched his fists and said excitedly: "The solitary is indeed the destiny of heaven! Ha... ha ha ha..."

Seeing the prince laughing wildly, the real Wang said seriously: "Although it is the fate, His Highness must obey the heavens. If there is no harmony between yin and yang, I am afraid that the fate will be taken by traitors!"

"exactly!"

The prince has long been bewitched by these rhetoric, at this time he dare not be negligent, he responded several times, and then asked sincerely: "Then between real people, how can I make the yin and yang of the person who should be prophesied harmonize?"

"This……"

Zhenren Wang stroked his beard and hesitated for a while, then finally shook his head: "The secrets of heaven are unpredictable, and it is difficult for poor people to see the whole picture."

The prince was extremely disappointed when he heard the words, but he cheered up again in a blink of an eye, and said confidently: "Forget it, since Gu is a person favored by destiny, he can naturally find a way to coordinate yin and yang!"

Chapter 878

A Taoist priest?

Although the prince did not reveal any rumors from the beginning to the end.

But after all, this is half of Sun Shaozong's home court, and the Taoist didn't deliberately conceal it when he entered and exited Wangjiang Tower. Therefore, soon after the banquet was over, Sun Shaozong found out the basic identity of the other party.

This is not really good news.

Because this indicates that the prince's trust in the Taoist priest has reached a certain level-you must know that the current prince is already quite neurotic, and Sun Shaozong does not want him to be infected with any religious fanaticism.

Especially the lesson from King Zhongshun...

It seems that we have to have a frank and honest talk with the Taoist priest as soon as possible, so as not to cause trouble in the future.

…………

Returning home full of worries, he was supposed to rest in Second Sister You's house according to the day, but seeing that the living room in the main room was still brightly lit, Sun Shaozong planned to go there first and say hello to Ruan Rong.

Unexpectedly, after entering the door, I saw that the inside was crowded with people, not to mention Xiangling, Second Sister You, master and servant, even the elder sister-in-law Jia Yingchun came with her child.

It's not a year or a festival, and it's a big night...

"Second Master is overjoyed!"

"Congratulations, Second Master!"

"Congratulations to the second master!"

Sun Shaozong was confused here, so all the children and family members in that room gathered around, talking happily.

At first, he was a little dazed, and then Sun Shaozong cast his eyes on Ruan Rong, and saw her holding the table with one hand and protecting her stomach with the other, she stood up slowly, and said with a smile: "Second master."

Looking at this posture, and hearing that she never said any auspicious words, is there any reason why Sun Shaozong doesn't understand?

Now take three steps and two steps to get closer, first greet Jia Yingchun, the "eldest sister-in-law", then hold Ruan Rong's hand, and said happily: "Could it be that you are pregnant again?"

Ruan Rong just laughed, but Jia Yingchun said from the side: "Sister Rong always feels tired these days. Today, I invited a doctor to come to the door, so I know that I have a happy pulse."

As an experienced mother, Ruan Rong should have noticed the abnormality in her body long ago, but because of the war in southern Xinjiang, she has often suffered from insomnia and nightmares since half a month ago, and her physical and mental state is already very poor, so she didn't notice it.

Having said that, after she was diagnosed as pregnant, Ruan Rong's mood improved a lot, she sent Jia Yingchun away, and even took the initiative to push Sun Shaozong into the second sister You's room.

Sun Shaozong repeatedly failed to 'force to stay', so he 'had to' go back to the West Chamber with Second Sister You.

As soon as she entered the door, the smile on Second Sister You's face collapsed, and when she took Caixia to the outside, she even twisted her handkerchief and shed tears.

Sun Shaozong naturally knew why she was doing this.

He hurriedly embraced her waist from behind, buried his chin into the cloudy silk, and said with a smile: "What's there to cry about? Today, if you work harder, you will be pregnant if you don't keep it all together. "

Second Sister You was unmoved, still sobbing and said: "It's useless to be a slave, I have been married for more than two years, and I can't add a son and a half to my master..."

"What nonsense!"

Sun Shaozong scolded displeasedly, picked up her tall and plump body, and put it heavily on his lap: "Except for the days when my master was in southern Xinjiang, you have only been with me for more than half a year, so why worry about it?" of?"

Seeing that these words were still not very effective, Sun Shaozong found a gap with ease, put his hand into her arms and searched wildly.

Second Sister You's familiar body is the most sensitive, no matter how depressed she is, being teased by him, she can't help being aroused.

So she twisted her peach-like hip, and said in a delicate voice: "Master, people tell you serious things, how can you..."

"Isn't that decent enough?"

Supporting her two long legs, Sun Shaozong changed the "sitting arms" into a horizontal embrace with a little effort, and the broken beard under his jaw rubbed the white as jade collarbone, before he slid his head into the loose skirt.

"Master, I have something serious to say!"

You Er said coquettishly, but his youthful body did not take any precautions.

…………

When she finally explained the business clearly, it was already half an hour later.

In fact, it's not a big deal, it's just that I want to go to Qixia Temple to ask for a child.

Ever since Youshi became pregnant on that mountain, this small nunnery has become the holy place in the heart of Second Sister You. She is such a money-obsessed master, and she has not lost money to the temple in the past two years.

When Sun Shaozong just came back from Huguang last month, Second Sister You actually wanted to drag him over to ask for a son--for this reason, he even found an excuse of 'father and son recognize each other'.

It's a pity that I was busy with trivial matters later, so I couldn't make the trip after all.

But even if it could be done, he would not dare to reveal anything in front of the child. At most, he would let You Shi call him "Daddy" on the bed.

And when I was in Ningguo Mansion before, I already...

Less gossip.

Knowing that Second Sister You was eating nervously because of Ruan Rong's pregnancy again, Sun Shaozong naturally wanted to comfort her, so he agreed on the spot, and took her to Qixia Nunnery to 'beg for a child' when she came down to take a rest.

Satisfied, Second Sister You put in another [-] points of energy and pestered her until midnight before giving up.

…………

Not to mention how wanton and carefree Sun Shaozong took advantage of his drunkenness.

But it was said that after the banquet in Wangjiang Tower, there was a person who hadn't drunk a drop of alcohol all night, but he was so drunk that he seemed to be very drunk.

Smiling foolishly all the way, he returned to the small courtyard where he stayed temporarily, pushed open the door of the main room, and saw his wife was doing needlework under the candlestick, so he threw herself on her without hesitation, and took this half-aged lady who still had a charm It's a good relationship.

The woman was frightened at first, but when his saliva smeared her face, she came to her senses, and hurriedly supported her husband's old face with a thin bandage, and scolded in disgust: "Going drunk again, how much did you drink today?" ?!"

The man didn't answer, but walked around the room, and finally asked, "Where's Xiuyan? Go and call her here!"

But it turned out that this guy was not someone else, but Xing Zhong who was almost regarded as an assassin by the guards in Wangjiang Tower.

"This drunk cat, it only stopped for a few days before drinking again!"

Xing's wife spat angrily, she didn't dare to provoke him too much, and she was worried that she might not be able to get him to the inner room later, so she went to the west wing room and called Xing Xiuyan over.

Xing Xiuyan heard that his father was drunk again, so he hurriedly followed his mother to the main room. He originally wanted to coax Xing Zhong to rest in the inner room first, and then cook some hangover soup for him.

Unexpectedly, after entering the door, he saw Xing Zhong sitting at the table with a big horse and a golden knife, his eyes were piercing, and he was completely different from the drunken appearance of the past.

The mother and daughter were a little at a loss.

Seeing his daughter arrived, Xing Zhong pretended to take a sip from his teacup, then slapped the table and asked, "Do you know who I saw today?"

The mother and daughter looked at each other, and Mrs. Xing scolded: "This surprise, could it be that you saw the Queen Mother?"

"Bah! You ignorant woman!"

Xing Zhong spat, stared at his wife hard, and wanted to curse a few words, but then thought, now he is also the master who has been close to the sons and grandsons of dragons, what is there to care about with the same stupid woman?
