Chapter 264 Heartbreak (1)
King Ping returned to Chunxiyuan with a gloomy expression. After dinner, Li Qing made tea and brought it over. King Ping waved his hand to repel all the girls and women, and sat down with a little sadness. Li Qing put down his cup, sat down with him, gently pulled his arm, looked up at him with concern. King Ping turned his head, looked at Li Qing with pain, and whispered:
"Last night, the southern goods store in the east of the city sent a letter out. Hongmin actually gave the engagement jade pendant left by her mother to her and asked Emperor Qing to marry her to the children of officials in the capital."
Li Qing looked at King Ping in shock and said a while later.
"I need to find out this matter clearly. Hongmin lives in the inner house, how can he know the south store in the east of the city?"
Li Qing paused, and asked in confusion while thinking:
"There are very few people who know about the south cargo store in the east of the city. How did Hongmin know where to deliver the letter?"
"She sent the letter and things to the inn and gave it to Li Yunsheng. Li Yunsheng was probably too anxious and sent it to the southeastern cargo store."
Ping Wang explained in a low voice. Li Qing was stunned and opened his mouth, wanting to ask Li Yunsheng, hesitated, and swallowed the words back to his mouth, and comforted with a smile:
"This is not a big deal. Think about it, Hongmin is twelve years old this year. It is the time when he was a young man Mu Ai. It is normal to think about what kind of person he will marry and what kind of life he will live in the future. I am as big as her..."
Li Qing paused and then persuaded:
"Hongmin grew up with the nannies from the capital. Those nannies were homesick. When talking about the capital, they naturally had a grass and a flower that was better than other places. Hongmin is young and had nothing to do. On weekdays, even the mansion... is still a man who has never left the house. How can I tell the truth or falsehood of this? Naturally, I think that the capital is good everywhere, and there is no better place in the world than the capital. It is common for a girl to like good things and love a lively place. In the future, she naturally wants to marry to the place she likes the most. These are all human feelings, so I don't have to take it too seriously."
Li Qing looked at Ping Wang's face carefully. Seeing that his face gradually calmed down, he continued with a smile:
"Think about it, my mother is old and I am far away in the farm again. Your face is as tight as you every day. When the children see you, they are like mice and cats. They are all afraid of you. Even when I see my grandfather's face, my heart trembles! Even if Hongmin has such thoughts, no one can entrust her, so she has to think of her own way, right?"
Ping Wang relaxed his face, showed a slight smile, and reached out to bring Li Qing,
"Why are you afraid of me if others are afraid of me? Even if my face is bulging, you won't care!"
"You can't say that. I'm afraid of it. I'm so scared that I'm trembling. It's just to have a face and hold on."
Li Qing smiled and pulled Ping Wang's arm gently and shook it angrily. Ping Wang smiled and hugged Li Qing, put his head on Li Qing's head, and asked in a low voice:
"You really think Hongmin is understandable?"
"Well, children, how can you not make mistakes? Parents, first, you need guidance, and second, you need to forgive. Hongmin is too eccentric, and he is too unaware of the dangers of this world and the sinister hearts of people. I took advantage of this matter to suppress her temperament and marry someone in the future, but it is for her good."
Li Qing persuaded her softly and softly. King Ping held her tightly, and was silent for a while, and chuckled gently.
"Qingqing, I will be my greatest blessing."
Li Qing also laughed, nodded heavily, and said seriously:
"I think so too!"
King Ping was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Qing with wide eyes, and suddenly picked her up and put her in his arms with force. He hugged her and laughed. Li Qing was nestled in his arms, smiling with a smile on his face.
"Hongmin is so kind that he really has to live in the temple for a few years, copy Buddhist scriptures well, and be quiet. Last time, you sent her to Wuya Temple... I shouldn't have forced her to pick her up."
King Ping smiled for a while and felt lighter.
"I asked her to send her to Kongci Temple at the foot of Yutan Mountain. The Kuye Master of Kongci Temple's family is Lin. He is a master of greatness. It is most suitable for her to teach Hongmin. However, after the New Year, you should pay attention to finding a suitable family for her. After the New Year, you should send her to get married. As for the dowry, please prepare for it."
Li Qing smiled and nodded in agreement. Ping Wang slowly moved down along Li Qing's back with one hand, stopped on Li Qing's soft abdomen, rubbed gently, lowered his head, and asked in a low voice with a smile:
"Are you tired after getting up early and going to bed late these days? Otherwise, let's take a break tonight, and I'll take a leave for you tomorrow morning, and you'll sleep until you... wake up naturally?"
Li Qing glanced at Pingwang with a bright look.
"Well... do you want me to take a good rest?"
King Ping laughed, got up and hugged Li Qing and walked to the clean room behind.
"Well, I will serve you well tonight, first wait for you to bathe, then wait for you... take a good rest."
The next day, at the beginning of the ugliness, Zhuye whispered outside the door:
"Report, Mrs., someone in Chunhui Court asked for an interview and said there was an urgent matter."
Ping Wang opened his eyes alertly, slowly let go of Li Qing who was sleeping in his arms, carefully covered her with a quilt, got up gently, opened the door and left the house.
Zhuye held a candlestick in his hand, bent his knees, and led King Ping to the main room outside. An old woman was standing in the middle of the room in a restless state, constantly leaning her head into the inside. Seeing King Ping come out, she hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and reported urgently:
"Mr. My ancestor is sick. After my grandfather left last night, my grandfather said he had chest tightness. After drinking half a bowl of soup for dinner, he lay down and fell asleep. But he was not sleeping peacefully. My son was too overdoing, so he became hot all over. I wanted to report back to me, but my grandfather did not allow me to come and disturb me. Now, my grandfather's body became hotter and hotter, and I became a little confused. I dare not delay and asked me to take charge."
Ping Wang frowned tightly, and he was about to walk out with his feet. After walking two steps, he stopped suddenly, turned around and entered the inner room again.
The woman was stunned for a moment, turned around and looked at Zhuye as she asked. Zhuye pulled her to stand aside, and comforted her in a hurry:
"Don't worry, my ancestors are sick, so I must call my wife to go to the hospital for treatment. I have to wear clothes. You can wait a while."
As he said that, he hurried out to call the little girl on duty to come in, report at the door, and went in to wait for King Ping and Li Qing to change their clothes, wash up briefly, put on a thick cloak, and hurried to Chunhuiyuan when he went out.
Li Qing sat on the edge of the bed of Mr. Wen, carefully diagnosing his pulse. King Ping stood in front of the bed with a panic expression, anxious and worried looking at Mr. Wen who was sleeping dizzy on the bed, and then looked at Li Qing who was concentrating and carefully diagnosing his pulse.
After a while, Li Qing gently put the old concubine Wen's hand back into the quilt. King Ping rushed over and asked anxiously:
"How is it? Is it heavy?"
"Well, my mother seemed to be shocked and shocked. She lost her mind for a moment and the wind evil entered her body."
Li Qing paused, looked up at Pingwang and asked:
"When my mother was young, did she suffer from wind and cold?"
Ping Wang nodded,
"I heard from my mother that she suffered hardships when she was young, and she must have suffered from wind and cold."
Li Qing sighed secretly, lowered his head, thought for a while, then raised his head and said with a smile:
"My mother suffered from a cold when she was young, leaving behind the root of the disease. Now she was shocked and her mind was lost for a moment. It was not too serious at this moment. She asked someone to take my silver needle, and the needle was first, and the heat was reduced. Then she prescribed a few decoctions to condition it, and it would be cured slowly."
A trace of sadness flashed in King Ping's heart, and he nodded slowly. Li Qing lowered his eyes and took a few steps back, left the inner room, ordered Zhuye to go back and get the needle box, and asked for paper and pen again, sat down, and slowly wrote the prescription.
King Ping left the inner room with a dark face, called Madam Zhang over, stared at her coldly and asked:
"Last night, you have been serving you close to me. Tell me carefully, what happened last night? If you miss half a word, I will break you up!"
Madam Zhang was so frightened that she was trembling all over. She knelt on the ground with a "thump" sound, and her voice trembled and replied:
"Reply... I'll say it to you. Last night, after leaving, my ancestor said that he wanted to go and see if the fourth lady was sleeping well. I said that he asked the wet nurse to carry the fourth lady over. My ancestor wanted to go over and see it by himself. When he walked to the door of the East Nuan Pavilion, he heard the wet nurse talking to...Madam Zhao inside."
Madam Zhang's throat choked and trembled on the ground. Li Qing stood up and walked to King Ping in confusion. Madam Zhang kowtowed a few more times before continuing:
"The wet nurse said that the fourth lady has gained a lot of weight in just a few days and loves to laugh. Madam Zhao said that if the wife had not come back, the fourth lady would have been afraid that it would be difficult for her to survive. The wet nurse said that if the eldest lady is not here in the future, the fourth lady will no longer have to fast every now and then. If she continues, she will starve to death. Madam Zhao said...Madam Zheng ordered the people in Chunlanyuan... to copy Buddhist scriptures, and said that she and the wet nurse should also copy some."
Ping Wang's face turned pale and his fingers trembled slightly. Li Qing hurriedly took his hand and scolded Madam Zhang sternly.
"What are these all the messes? Go and those two servants, go and find Madam Zheng to get the punishment! Next time, you don't have to keep your ears and mouths anymore!"
Madam Zhang hurriedly got up and ran out stumbled. Li Qing pulled the King of Pin and said softly:
"I'm calming down. I'll know this as soon as I come back. It's because I didn't report it to me earlier."
Ping Wang looked down at Li Qing, pinching Li Qing's hand heavily, his eyes full of sadness and pain.
"She is really my daughter? Hong Qi can't get her in the way? Hong Qi is only a few months old, so well-behaved, so she can be cruel. In this mansion, my children... cannot be thorough yet?"
