She can understand some things in the court, but living in the inner house for a long time is not as profound as those in the court.
The only thing I keep in mind is that as a minister, you cannot act willfully.
All favors and honors are given by the Holy Spirit. If you violate the Sacred Heart, something will happen sooner or later.
However, she would subconsciously pay more attention to A Jian's injury.
As a mother, the first thing you think about is your children.
"Can't you really wait for a while?" Xu Miao asked tentatively, "The Holy Father has sent people to care about your injury several times. It shows that he attaches great importance to your condition and should be able to understand your condition..."
Xu Jian was not surprised by Mrs. Xu's reaction: "The Holy One is indeed concerned, but he is more concerned about His Highness the Crown Prince."
Xu Miao pursed her lower lip.
Understandable.
She was thinking of A Jian, and the Holy Father was thinking of the prince. It was only natural and right.
Xu Jian explained a few more sentences: "It would be better if His Highness was lifted from the ground before the death of the late Queen.
But His Highness didn't come out. I asked people to inquire, and they all said they didn't know how long the confinement would be.
It's not a good thing if it goes on like this for a long time. I heard that during this period of time, everyone in the morning had their own thoughts, and the quarrel made the Holy Father not very happy.
If I can recover and go to court, Your Majesty will be able to calm down some of His Majesty's anger."
Xu Jian knew the Lord very well.
Li Shao's psychological expectation was not wrong. He should have left the East Palace before the death of the late Queen, but unfortunately he met the little princess.
The two tiger bones were originally a set of random punches, but Li Shao himself started to make a fuss and wanted to be a master for a time. He made some suggestions to lead to the discovery of the problems in the East Palace warehouse, so much so that the Holy Emperor was so angry that he did not lift the ban.
But does the Holy Spirit really care about Li Shao?
impossible.
Especially, on the anniversary of his death, Li Shao obviously fooled the Holy One.
The person behind the plan found an opportunity for Li Shao. The Holy Emperor liked this opportunity, so the current problem is when and why the ban will be lifted.
Xu Jianjian gave Sheng a step up and down.
"To tell you the truth," Xu Jian said again, "there are also rumors around Qianbu Corridor that my injury is due to the prince's inability to show his condition. I have been delayed in going to court. It can't be helped."
Xu Miao sighed.
The rumors were true, but since the Holy One chose to suppress them at the time, he would definitely not be willing to spread the rumors now.
Xu Miao didn't care whether the rumors were beneficial to the prince or not. She only knew that the emperor's "unwillingness" would affect A Jian.
This is really a dilemma.
"I understand the truth," Xu Miao lowered her eyes and looked at Xu Jian's right leg for a moment, "Is Dr. Yue sure? Can he let you go through such trouble?"
"Doctor Yue is also worried," Xu Jian said truthfully, "but I am determined to do this. I am very aware of my injury and believe that Dr. Yue can find a way. At most, it will be more difficult than expected, and it is not an incurable disease."
Xu Miao was worried and wanted to persuade her again, but Grandma Xia shook her head slightly at her.
I mean, stop trying to persuade me.
"Alas..." How could Xu Miao not understand Aunt Xia?
In the days after returning home, the biggest change she felt was "confession".
Ah Jian would not make up any lies with her, even if they were well-intentioned, he would not make them up.
He may not open his mouth to shout about the pain, but he also won't say "it doesn't hurt". When asked, he will just say "it's okay" and "it's bearable".
It was the same just now, "I'm telling you the truth."
When Ah Jian said this word to her, it wasn't a sign of humility or tact, it was just a matter of seeking truth from facts.
He was willing to analyze the situation with her and told him that he had made up his mind. If she stubbornly opposed it, she would be betraying her confession.
After all, she had been kept secret from her for too long, too much.
Now try to face everything, you should have the courage.
Ah Jian is not a child. He has inherited the title a long time ago. He has his own political opinions and ideas. Ah Jian has the final say on the government of the auxiliary country. As an old lady, she has no reason to dictate major matters.
Of course, Xu Miao also has some small things that he must not compromise on.
"Then you should pay more attention in the past half month," Xu Miao said softly, "Since you are going to court to lift the prince's ban, you have to walk steadily. If you are staggering or limping, it is better to not walk at all.
Go.
Tonight, you will set up a charcoal basin in your room. I know that if you don't nod, Shenchen and the others won't dare to set it up for you even if they want to.
What a big deal, don't embarrass them, it's just a charcoal basin.
If you don't want to listen, Mrs. An Yibo will come over tomorrow and I will ask her to send a message to the princess so that she can comment."
Hearing this, Xu Jian raised the corners of her pursed lips slightly, and a smile flashed across her face.
Everything in the previous court has been decided, and we must make some concessions when it comes to placing the charcoal basin.
If he really asked Mrs. An Yibo to deliver a message to Uncle Chengyi's house for such a trivial matter, he would just forget it. The little princess would be embarrassed.
"I know, I'll put it on later so my legs won't get cold," Xu Jian said.
Only then did Xu Miao feel relieved.
Since it was mentioned that Mrs. An Yibo would be arriving tomorrow, Xu Miao continued: "The route for welcoming the bride has not been completely finalized. What do you think?"
The Fuguo Duke's Mansion is in the west of the city, and the Chengyi County Mansion is in the east of the city, almost spanning the entire capital.
There are many route options, but they will definitely pass through several streets, and the more people there are, the more lively they are.
It wasn't originally a difficult task. After all, the auspicious day was set and the auspicious time was calculated. We decided on the appropriate route according to the time, so as not to rush too much, and we didn't want to wait until the ceremony arrived but the time did not arrive. But the problem was Xu Jian.
Did Xu Jian ride a horse or a sedan that day?
Could Xu Jian be able to complete the entire distance on horseback that day?
At first, all parties were confident. They were just sitting on the horse, and they didn't need Xu Jian to ride the horse and whip the whip. How could they make a thousand miles in a day?
But I didn’t expect that it would be so difficult to treat the injury. Even going to court was suspended during this period. Although there are still two months left, who knows whether it will get better after two months or it will just be like this?
Therefore, I had to prepare a few more methods and think more about the situation.
Gently clasping his knuckles on his right leg, Xu Jian said, "Go on horseback and arrange things as normal."
Xu Miao gave him an angry look.
If An Anfen was able to welcome the bride, she would be able to relax to some extent.
I have to go to court in half a month, just in case something goes wrong...
That’s a wedding reception!
The slightest mistake can make the bride think about it in her heart for a lifetime.
Of course, the princess is good-tempered and sensible. Even if something unexpected happens, she will definitely understand A Jian and will not lose her temper. But it is precisely because the princess is good that Xu Miao hopes that the marriage will go smoothly.
, perfect and perfect.
There can be no regrets.
"Okay, the main thing is to make the arrangements as normal," Xu Miao thought about it, "but Uncle Chengyi and I will definitely discuss a compromise method in case of emergencies.
If you dislike us for having too many things to do, then you should try to have fewer things to do yourself.
We can prepare it, but you don’t need to use it.”
Xu Jian really laughed now.
Perhaps these days, she has returned to the Duke's Mansion, to a place that Mrs. Xu is familiar with and comfortable with. As her mood changes, she becomes a bit more cheerful and is no longer as tense as before.
From time to time, she still has various thoughts, but she has become much more active. Even if it is the same problem, what she thinks about now is different from before.
This is a good thing.
Xu Jian hopes that Mrs. Xu can come out of the haze more than anyone else.
Don't go crazy again.
Xu Jian got up and went back to the front yard before the night wind got heavier.
The charcoal basin was placed, and the room was much warmer. He stood there for a while until he was sweating slightly, but his right leg was still dry, not cold, but not warm either.
Is it necessary for emergencies...
In fact, he doesn't really need emergencies, or in other words, he won't let emergencies happen.
In the past, he could only walk with a cane, but he rode a horse to welcome the little princess from Chengyi's Mansion back to Fuguo Duke's Mansion. There is no reason why it would be even worse this time.
For the next half month, Xu Jian did not leave the house.
On the other hand, Mrs. An Yibo went back and forth several times to finalize the wedding ceremony step by step.
In Uncle Chengyi's house, the atmosphere of getting married has become much stronger.
The lady in charge led the people and happily arrived at Zai Shou Yuan. Before she could salute, she smiled with her eyes, which made little Duan even bend her eyes.
"What's the good news?" she asked.
The lady said: "The princess's wedding dress has been delivered."
Xiao Duan's heart suddenly lifted, and she urged: "Then we have to take a look quickly."
Lin Yunyan was also there, and she was amused by Lin Yunjing who was winking and amusing.
The person who presented the wedding dress was the aunt in the palace.
This wedding dress was specially made by the Empress Dowager at the Clothing Bureau. She had seen the style before, and Lin Yunyan also liked it.
The bright red clothes were unfolded, and Xiao Duan held Lin Yunyan's hand and walked closer, taking a closer look.
The more I look at it, the more excited I become.
How beautiful!
The materials are good, the workmanship is good, and the gold and silver embroidery is even more lifelike.
It is said that beauty spreads all over the Yangtze River. When she married into the capital when she was young, she also had a good wedding dress. Later, she also managed the marriages of several children. However, it was rare for her to see such exquisite wedding dresses.
The last time I could see it so carefully was when Dalang got married.
Ayun's body was also made in the palace.
Recalling the past, Xiao Duan sighed with emotion, but she was unwilling to mention the deceased in such a good atmosphere, so she suppressed it.
"Quickly," she shook Lin Yunyan's hand hard, "quickly put it on and let us all take a look."
Lin Yunyan naturally agreed and went to the blue gauze cupboard.
Everyone was waiting in the second room, and there were urgent footsteps outside. Lin Yunfang, who had received the news, hurried over, with bright eyes to see the new clothes.
Although waiting is impatient, what is more important than impatient is expectation.
When the Bisha cupboard creaked open, everyone immediately turned their heads and stared at the person who came out.
Lin Yunyan stood there, her red clothes made her look even whiter, and her figure and appearance made her forget to be amazed for a moment.
Lin Yunfang was the first to come to her senses. She wanted to hug Lin Yunyan, but she didn't dare to touch the clothes, so she had to step back and grab Lin Yunjing's arm, shaking it hard back and forth.
Little Mrs. Duan looked up and down a few times, unable to say anything.
So emotional.
That's how raising children is.
For more than ten years, I know that she is growing up and that time is passing by, but only when I see her put on her wedding dress do I truly realize that she has grown up.
Mrs. Chen saw the mixed feelings of Xiao Duan and said: "It looks like it fits well, but it will be colder in November than it is now. I will have to add another piece inside to avoid getting cold. It won't be tight if I add it.
?”
Mammy smiled and said: "Madam, don't worry, I have left some, but the armpits are a little tight. I will ask the palace to change them later."
"That's great," Ms. Chen laughed. "This is just a wedding dress. Once you comb your hair, put on a phoenix crown, and cover your head, it will become even more extraordinary."
Mammy agreed: "The phoenix crown will be ready in another half month, and then we will send it to the princess for trial."
Xiao Duan knew the importance best, and also understood that Cining Palace was concerned about it, so she said to Lin Yunyan: "When the time comes, you can go and show it to the Empress Dowager."
Lin Yunyan naturally agreed.
It was supposed to be changed, but after hearing reports from outside that Mrs. An Yibo was here, Lin Yunyan waited again.
Mrs. An Yibo walked in, her gaze attracted the wedding dress, and she said, "I am more excited than I am when I get married."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole room burst into laughter.
Mrs. An Yibo said again: "I will tell Duke Fu later that this bride is so beautiful, and she becomes even more amazing after she puts on her wedding dress, so that he will miss her for days to come."
Amidst the laughter, Lin Yunyan went into the Bisha cupboard to change out of her clothes.
As her fingers brushed against the smooth material, she couldn't help but smile.
Xu Jian had seen the way she looked in her wedding dress before, but that time she felt a little regretful because he endured the leg injury.
This time...
Just as she was thinking about it, Lin Yunyan heard Mrs. An Yibo's voice.
"It is said that I will be able to go to court in ten days. After taking such a long rest, I feel much better."
Lin Yunyan was stunned for a moment.
Another ten days?
Is Xu Jian too anxious?
The last time she went to Fu Guogong's Mansion, Lin Yunyan couldn't understand how good the progress was, but she knew that Xu Jian was clearly enduring the pain, and even as the treatment progressed, she shouldn't...
After handing the wedding dress to her grandmother, Lin Yunyan quickly walked out of the blue gauze cabinet and asked, "How is he doing now?"
Mrs. An Yi said: "I rest in the study more, and I go around the house in sedan chairs. It's been cold these days, so I use the hand stove and the charcoal basin. It's not that I use them because I feel uncomfortable. I heard that they are used to get better as soon as possible."
.”
Lin Yunyan breathed out secretly.
good.
At least I know how to ride in a sedan chair, how to use a hand stove, and how to set up a charcoal basin.
I will go to court ten days later...
You can’t sit on a sedan chair to climb the Jinluan Hall, you have to walk up the long trail by yourself.
But why did Xu Jian make this choice?
Lin Yunyan calmed down and thought about it, and she could actually understand what Xu Jian meant.
Yes, it's time for Li Shao to come out of the East Palace.
The ups and downs of changes must be implemented.
This ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the East Palace, Li Shao was leaning on a pillow and flipping through a book, but his mind was not on that.
Feng's servant came in quietly, came up to him, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, I just heard that Duke Fu is going to court tomorrow."
Li Shao raised his eyes: "Is his injury healed?"
"It's not clear yet," said Feng's wife, "but it must have improved. At least he can walk to the court on his own."
Li Shao snorted and sneered: "Can he be bad?"
There are two tiger bones!
The two tiger bones that I borrowed from Ning'an must have some effect.
Furthermore, these days, by repairing his mother's relics, Li Shao more or less felt his father's looseness. From his perspective, his retreat to advance will soon bear fruit.
Xu Jianjian suppressed him and wanted to "show goodwill". Why didn't he show up at this time?
He wanted to see how Xu Jian could "persuade" his father!
