Huan Rong

Chapter 12 Homecoming

Huan Rong was domineering for a while, and Yu Youzhi almost got under the car in fright.Before the two brothers returned to the house, the news had already spread throughout Jiankang City.

At that time, Princess Nankang was asking people to look through the warehouse, take out the books and bamboo slips in the dowry, and sort them into books.

Mrs. Li was also not idle, she personally took the servants out of the box, put aside the treasures, gold and silver brought out of the Chenghan Palace, and focused on searching for ancient books.Among them, there are many isolated copies handed down from the pre-Qin period, which are no less valuable than the Jin court collections.

"Pack it up and send it to His Highness."

The servants opened the boxes one by one and found more than fifty bamboo slips.

Mrs. Li has been busy for half an hour, her pretty face is stained with sweat, and her temples are a little fluffy.The dovetail collar of the gown is slightly open, giving it a lazy look.

The maidservant immediately brought a towel and asked Mrs. Li to rest on the couch.

"The weather this year is really weird." A servant said.

"That's not true." The other person wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "It was still cold before the Shangsi Festival, but it turned hot in a few days."

"Madam's silk jacket and Confucian clothes must be prepared again." said the servant girl who spoke first.

"How about referring to the style of Kuaiji County and making a few new ones for my wife?"

The servants were talking excitedly, when they suddenly heard the sound of wooden clogs outside the door.Then a maidservant reported that Princess Nankang had something to ask.

"Your Highness?"

Mrs. Li put down the cloth towel, and immediately ordered her servants to wrap up the bamboo slips.I moved to the inner room by myself, walked behind the screen, and changed into a new set of silk jacket and skirt, carefully brushed my temples, and matched it with a flower hairpin.The white teeth bit her lower lip lightly, she didn't put on much makeup, her eyebrows are full, like a peach like a plum.

"Let's go."

Ah Mai waited outside the door, saw Mrs. Li walking out of the inner room, and stepped back half a step sideways.

"Why did His Highness call me?"

When walking through the corridor, Madam Li couldn't help frowning when she saw a servant girl in Hu clothes passing by.

"Return to Madam, who is here?"

Aunt who?

Mrs. Li pondered for a moment and didn't ask any more questions.

A group of people walked through two wooden corridors, crossed the bamboo bridge supported by green lotus leaves, and arrived at the place of Princess Nankang.

"His Royal Highness is in the guest room?"

Mrs. Li was suspicious, could it be that the husband master took over the account?

Ah Mai didn't say much, bowed and saluted, and invited Mrs. Li to enter.Unlike Huanwen's other concubines, when Mrs. Li came to see Princess Nankang, she never had to report in advance.

The wooden door was opened, and the gauze vertical screen was moved to the side.

The incense burner was not lit, Princess Nankang was sitting on the right seat, and two strange women were leaning over the ground, both of whom were dressed in Confucian clothes and long skirts, charming and charming.

After sweeping her eyes twice, Mrs. Li's eyebrows moved slightly.

Judging by their attire, they are already women.

The aunt came and sent it to Her Highness the Princess. Don't think too much, it must be the new concubine of the husband.I just don't know if it was a gift from the civil and martial arts, or it was obtained from a good family.If he was a slave, even if Da Sima Huan accepted him, he would never dare to send it to Princess Nankang.

Her Royal Highness became angry, but she wanted to raise a sword and cut someone down.

"Sister." Taking two quick steps, Mrs. Li knelt down to the lower left of Princess Nankang.

"My sister is here." Princess Nankang turned her head and finally smiled.

"Sister called me here because of them?"

"They?" Princess Nankang frowned in disgust, and said, "No. Those who followed Gua'er reported that Gua'er went to Yufu."

"what?"

Mrs. Li was quite surprised, but what she asked was really unexpected: "Sister, sir, did you suffer?"

"Of course not." Princess Ankang's mood improved, with a smile in her eyes.Thinking of the servant's return, he clapped his hands and laughed.

"Why are you laughing, sister?"

"You don't know the inside story, wait for me to call someone."

The two concubines fell on the ground, Princess Nankang didn't even look at it, she immediately called her servant and asked her to repeat the story.

"promise!"

The servant servant gave a lecture in the middle of the Shangsi Festival, vividly and vividly, without missing a word, as if the event was happening right in front of his eyes.

The more Mrs. Li listened, the more amazed she became.After hearing Yu Youzhi's embarrassment, she couldn't help but part her red lips slightly, and the flowers trembled with laughter.

"Sister, I didn't know that Mr. Lang has this ability."

"Don't say it's you, I never knew."

Princess Nankang waved her hand, signaling the servants to back down, she slowed down a little, and said with a smile: "I don't want to suffer, and I will directly attack someone who is a rascal. This is what the old slave does."

"Sister." Madam Li put away her smile, slowly sat up straight, and gently brushed the back of Princess Nankang's hand, "They are still kneeling."

It is not easy to see from the back, but from the front, the two concubines wear silk belts around their waists, one of them is still slim, and the other can't hide her slightly protruding belly.

Princess Nankang raised her eyebrows, glanced at them in disgust, and finally made them stand up.

"Get up."

The two concubines straightened up cautiously, still with their heads half down.Not to mention Princess Nankang, even Mrs. Li dare not glance at her.

"Sister, will they stay in Jiankang from now on?"

"En." Princess Nankang nodded and said, "Master Ma and Mrs. Murong are pregnant, so it is inconvenient to stay in Gushu."

Murong?

Mrs. Li stared and saw that the concubine on the right had white skin and snowy skin, and her facial features were slightly darker than those of the Han people, and she indeed had the characteristics of Murong Xianbei.

"The husband took the beard girl?"

Princess Nankang sneered, and said, "That old slave is nearly sixty years old, so I underestimated him."

Hearing this, the shoulders of the two concubines trembled slightly, and they unconsciously covered their stomachs.

The action was too obvious, Princess Nankang sneered again, and Mrs. Li felt disgusted.Born in Xianbei and still acting like this, it's no wonder His Highness looks down on him.

"Mai."

"The slave is here."

"Take them down."

Out of sight, out of mind, Princess Nankang didn't want to let the two of them keep fighting against her.As for Huan Wen having one more child or one less, it doesn't matter to her.In the final analysis, sending them back is probably because the old slave is worried about the bastards.

Thinking of this, Princess Nankang was inexplicably happy.

Well deserved!

Mrs. Ma and Mrs. Murong bowed their blessings and went to Xiyuan with their servants.

They didn't understand why her husband mainly sent herself to Jiankang.If Princess Nankang is unhappy, it doesn't matter if she kills them, the husband doesn't care about the child in her belly?

The two of them were preoccupied, and they secretly made up their minds. They must be cautious in their words and deeds from now on, and never step out of the room unless necessary, so as not to upset Her Royal Highness and cause unnecessary consequences.

Leaving two outsiders alone, Princess Nankang suddenly relaxed, picked up a letter and a gift list, and handed them to Mrs. Li who was sitting beside her.

"Let's have a look." Princess Nankang leaned on the low couch, squeezed her forehead with one hand, "That old servant really took the trouble."

Mrs. Li read the letter first and then the gift list. For about a quarter of an hour, her complexion became unsightly.

"Do you understand?"

"Sister, Husband Master, what does this mean?"

"Fifty bolts of silk, fifty bolts of silk, two chests of gold, and ten dendrobium pearls. What a great deal."

Princess Nankang's tone was calm, but her eyes were burning with frightening anger.It is said to be a shock for Gua'er, but in fact it is "buying" the lives of those two bastards!

"This time it's Gua'er's fate, if not..."

"Sister." Mrs. Li put down the gift list and letter, moved behind Princess Nankang, and gently squeezed her shoulder, "Since the Husband Master meant this, I'm afraid sister can't bear it."

"I know." Princess Nankang nodded.

"The person who sent the letter said that the two concubines were beaten with [-] army sticks a few days ago, and they are still bedridden. They plan to stay in Zheqi camp, and they cannot return to Jiankang with that old slave."

Princess Nankang showed a look of exhaustion on her expression.

"That old slave didn't lose his conscience."

Mrs. Li pursed her red lips, opened the top of the incense burner, and put in a piece of Western Region incense.

The colorless cigarette curled up, and Princess Nankang closed her eyes slightly, and her restless mood gradually subsided.

Mrs. Li changed pinch to thump, and landed behind Princess Nankang's shoulder.

The evening wind blows in from the window, lifts the gauze curtain behind the standing screen, and obsesses the graceful and peaceful figure of the lady.

In less than a few breaths, the tranquility was suddenly broken, like a stone thrown into the middle of a lake.

"Your Highness, the Lord is returning home."

"Gua'er is back?"

Princess Nankang opened her eyes, Mrs. Li held her shoulders, brushed her fingers over the princess' temples, and suppressed a strand of hair.

Not long after the maid reported, there was a sound of wooden clogs in the corridor.

Huan Rong and Huan Yi walked into the room, they still smelled of alcohol because they hadn't changed their outer robes.

"Mother."

The two brothers bowed to salute, and knelt on the left and right.

Huan Yi was still excited, thinking of Yu Youzhi's distressed appearance, the corners of his mouth almost reached his ears.Huan Rong, on the other hand, was a little apprehensive, and raised his head bravely, only to see Mrs. Li tucking her hair for Princess Nankang, and the corners of her mouth twitched immediately.

With such a mother in person, how can she not be strong psychologically.

"I've heard what happened today." Princess Nankang nodded and said, "Well done!"

What? !

Huan Rong was stunned.

He didn't ask any of the things he was worried about, and just praised him for going to Yu's house to beat people?

"It's just that I didn't strike hard enough, and I still feel a little soft-hearted."

Hearing this, Huan Rong opened his eyes wide, like a frightened civet cat.Princess Nankang didn't hold back her smile after all, and Mrs. Li couldn't help but bend her eyebrows and look at Huan Rong with kindness in her eyes.

"Don't worry, Gua'er, Yu Xi wouldn't dare to come to the door even if she had the guts to do so. At most, she would use ghost tricks, nothing to be afraid of."

Princess Nankang taught her son with a look of pride and relief.

"When your father returns to Jiankang, I will invite Xi Jingxing to explain to you the northern and southern gentry and the situation in the court."

Xi Jingxing... Xi Chao?

Although his teeth were a little sore, Huan Rong nodded solemnly.

Huan Yi was a little confused, looked back and forth between his mother and brother, and continued to giggle.

"My mother taught me, my son will keep it in mind."

Huan Rong's action in Qingxi was not a temporary idea.When he asked Nankang Princess as his host, he made up his mind to try to teach Yu Shi a lesson.

The Huan family was not highly regarded by the Wang and Xie gentry, at least they had heavy soldiers and guns in their hands.

As a foreign relative, the Yu family had glory in his early years.It's a pity that the year after Empress Dowager Yu's death is not as good as one year, and there is no certainty of winning against the Huan family.

Yu Youzhi got into trouble and Huan Rong was injured. Xie Anshang had to spend some time to appease the Huan family, at least not to give Sima Huan an excuse to fight and cause turmoil in the court.Conversely, when Huan Rong took Yu Youzhi away, Yu could at most jump up and shout twice, but the actual methods he could use were very few, and he couldn't hurt his opponent at all.

Therefore, Huan Rong can walk sideways in Jiankang City as long as he has a good sense of proportion.Even if a short-circuited brain got into trouble with the Wuyi Lane family, there is still Da Sima Huan to support him and deal with the aftermath.

To put it bluntly, cheat as much as you can, with the support of your mother!

Huan Rong promised, Princess Nankang ordered her servant to bring honey water and carry out the arranged books.

"Take all these back. There are a few volumes that are rare in the world. You need to cherish them."

Looking at the pile of books like a hill, Huan Rong suddenly felt his head was as big as a bucket.

Knowing that it was not only Princess Nankang's dowry, but also the classics brought by Mrs. Li from the Chenghan court, Huan Rong hurriedly put down the cup and saluted.

"Thank you, Auntie."

According to the customs of the Jin Dynasty, the father's concubine's room should be called "Auntie".

The other is Uncle Wang from the neighbor, and this is Aunt Li from the opposite door.

Huan Rong bowed his head silently, no, it's dirty again.

"It's a good thing that Lang Jun likes to study." Mrs. Li said with a smile, "I'll wait for a few days and I'll search carefully, hoping to find some more."

Huan Rong: "..."

He is really not a good boy who loves to read, can you please let him go?

Huan Yi put down the water cup, picked up a piece of mahua and put it into his mouth.Seeing Huan Rong's stunned expression, he suddenly understood that what brother said, "not being able to study is not necessarily a bad thing", might have some truth to it.

Qin Jing returned to the house where he was temporarily staying, and when he heard the loyal servant's return, he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Okay, this young man is very nice!"

"Lang Jun?"

Qin Jing waved her hands with a smile, her black eyes were shining brightly, and her color was even more beautiful than before.Fortunately, the loyal servant was able to see his nose, his nose, and his heart, and he managed to suppress his soaring heartbeat.

"Release the goshawk to send a letter to my father, and I will stay for half a month."

"promise!"

The loyal servant withdrew from the door, stood still and patted his chest, and faced the gentleman face to face, without a mountain of will, he really couldn't hold it.
