Concubine Xian was not completely irrational. She knew that even if she passed out right now, no one would care about her.
The emperor disliked her, and even her aunt stopped helping her. What was hateful was that even Lao Wu never begged for her.
After half a lifetime of planning, she was about to get it, but she was so short of it. How could the Concubine Xian be willing to do so?
She got up slowly and said coldly: "I made a mistake, and I will naturally go to the Queen Mother to apologize. But today is my grandson's birthday. The gift I prepared for my grandson has not yet been sent out, so I cannot kneel here."
With."
After saying that, she gritted her teeth and walked out.
Aunt Hu knew her temperament and did not dare to stop her. She could only shake her head and said: "Why bother, Madam? The Queen Mother and the Emperor are both angry at the moment. Why don't you kneel down so that the Queen Mother can find a way to forgive her?
you."
Concubine Xian didn't listen to her and walked straight out.
But even if she goes out, she can't enter the Qiankun Palace.
The Qiankun Hall was where the Supreme Emperor lived. Without the Supreme Emperor's permission, who would dare to let her in? She stayed outside and waited until everyone had given blessings to the dim sums and carried them out. Then she stepped forward and handed over the three golden locks.
The cards were hung around the dim sum's necks.
The bodies of the dim sums were already covered with various longevity locks, wish-fulfillment cards, and several gold and silver hats. They couldn't carry them anymore, so they put them on their bodies and were taken away by Grandma Xi.
What Concubine Hu gave her was a gold necklace, engraved with the words "peace and happiness, longevity and longevity".
Concubine Xian's gold lock plate happened to be placed on the gold collar given by Concubine Hu, which looked particularly stingy.
Concubine Xian was even more annoyed, but she didn't dare to make a mistake now. After all, if the trouble continued today, there would be no room for maneuver.
When the chamberlain sent the snacks out of the palace, they set off firecrackers, and with a piece of red paper flying, the group of people came out in large numbers and went straight to Jinghou Mansion.
There is also a particularly important ceremony for returning to one's parents' home in the middle of the month.
Now that the old lady is inconvenienced, the second old lady is temporarily in charge of the house, and a soup cake party is prepared to entertain relatives and friends. So when I returned to Jinghou Mansion, the whole Jinghou Mansion was very lively.
He is feeling ill today. He said he has been coughing and having a fever since last night. Therefore, today Mi Yue returns home. He cannot stay with him for too long. He only waits for a while to give gifts to his children together, sets off firecrackers and then goes back to rest.
With.
The old lady was pushed out in a wheelchair. When Yuan Qingling saw her, her eyes were red. She was trembling and couldn't say anything neat, so she didn't say anything at all and just nodded to Yuan Qingling.
Yuan Qingling had been worried about her throughout her confinement, and now that she could see her, she naturally wanted to go up to greet her and check her out. There were too many people here, so she pushed the old lady back into the courtyard.
The old lady was unwilling, meaning she was seriously ill, but she couldn't tell her. Even if she was unwilling, she could only let Yuan Qingling push her away.
The rest of the people put the snacks into the beds that had been prepared and lay down on them. According to custom, this is called moving into a nest. After leaving the confinement, moving into a nest means that you will be safe and sound wherever you go.
The incense table was set up outside. After the two old ladies led the people in the house to worship heaven, earth and ancestors, they entered the room. With the help of Grandma Xi and the wet nurse, they smeared red water on the child's face and dotted cinnabar on his forehead. From now on
, the child will be freed from the yin energy from reincarnation, and the cinnabar will kill evil spirits and ensure peace and good fortune.
There were many relatives in Jinghou Mansion, and all kinds of gold and silver jewelry were placed on the child. The two old ladies, Huang and Luan, as well as the grandma at the head of each house, all came forward to say blessings. For a moment, they were overjoyed.
Grandma and others couldn't squeeze in, so they could only watch from outside.
The waiting period also passed. As the child's grandfather, the gift he gave to the child was not shabby at all. Three golden and jade wish-fulfilling sticks. However, when there was a lot of movement during the waiting period, little Nuomi began to cry, so he picked him up and walked around inside.
, I really asked him to coax him.
The soup cakes are ready. Everyone who comes to the Chu Palace today must eat the soup cakes.
However, Aunt Xi was thoughtful and asked people to take turns to eat. She went first, while the three wet nurses accompanied the ladies in the house to look after the children. After she and Ah Siman'er had finished eating, they would come over to replace others.
Aunt Xi had repeatedly warned her not to let the snacks leave their sight.
However, with Gu Si and Xu Yi's people outside, they couldn't get out of the yard even if someone held the baby.
In this way, they took turns eating soup cakes. Yu Wenhao also helped to move the incense table back to the sacred building. He personally lit the incense, completing the process.
Over there, Yuan Qingling also examined the old lady and came out. She prescribed medicine. Although the old lady's condition is serious, fortunately everything is stable now and there are no signs of a second stroke. She only needs to wait for a few days.
Just rehabilitate her.
Just like that, after completing the etiquette, the nanny left the Hou's Mansion with the snacks in her arms.
A group of people got on the carriage, and the children all fell asleep after the fuss. Their faces were all smeared red and yellow, making them unrecognizable, but they were very interesting.
When Yu Wenhao was riding his horse, the ghost general Wei Luo appeared.
"Your Highness, I am holding a child and went out through the back door. The minister has ordered the ghost guards to follow." General Luo said.
Yu Wenhao nodded, his eyes stern, "Well, okay, follow him secretly and see who he connects with. Remember, if there is danger, save the child first at all costs."
General Luo raised his hand and said, "Yes, Your Highness!"
Yu Wenhao rode his horse to catch up with the carriage and returned home slowly.
Back at the mansion, guests came one after another.
The nanny took the snacks back to Xiaoyue Pavilion and washed the cinnabar and red water off their faces. After washing them, Xiao Nuomi's nanny screamed in fright.
Aunt Xi was outside. When she heard the screams, she thought something had happened and immediately went in.
"What's going on with all the yelling?" Aunt Xi said angrily, "There are still guests outside."
The wet nurse was so frightened that she couldn't even make a sound while pointing at the little glutinous rice. Her eyes were filled with horror.
Grandma Xi looked over suspiciously, and saw where was Xiao Nuomi? It was a baby face that she had never seen before. It was about the same size as Xiao Nuomi, but it was definitely not Xiao Nuomi.
"Oh my god, how could this happen? Aren't you all staring at it?" Aunt Xi said angrily.
"This slave has always been holding me." The nanny was finally frightened, regained her composure, and quickly defended herself.
Yuan Qingling was next door, and when he heard the screams, he brought Ah Si and Man'er over.
Seeing this scene, Yuan Qingling's face suddenly turned white and she said urgently: "Quickly, find the prince."
Yu Wenhao also came in, held her hand, and said in a deep voice: "Old Yuan, don't panic, the child is fine. Your father took it away. The ghost guards are already chasing her and will be back soon."
Hearing this, Yuan Qingling grabbed his wrist and her eyes turned red, "Wait quietly? Why can he take Xiao Nuomi away? Where can he take him?"
Yu Wenhao's eyes darkened, and he asked Aunt Xi to take the nannies out first, then closed the door and said, "If I'm not wrong, it was the fourth child who asked to be taken away."
