Because Zhou Nanxu couldn't say anything, Princess Yuyin was in a lot of trouble with Prince Rui's palace.
Both Xiao Ci and Song Qinghuan asked her to torture her in various ways.
It wasn't until mid-March that Zhou Nanxu was able to speak occasionally.
The imperial doctor originally said that he was depressed, but now that he is better, he can't explain why.
Because of this matter, Princess Yuyin was very happy for several days, burning incense and worshiping Buddha. She also listened to the old monk's words and wanted to accumulate blessings for her children, so she let Prince Rui's palace go.
Without Princess Yuyin causing trouble every three days, Song Qinghuan lived a peaceful life.
The two children went out early every day to study at Baihe Academy, and they had no time to trouble her. They only had to deal with the affairs of the family once a day, and Xiao Ci took them everywhere to eat, drink and have fun.
Qinlou, Chuguan, teahouses and restaurants, people listening to books and operas, whatever comes to mind.
It turns out that Xiao Ci is a romantic person himself, but now he brings Princess Rui to such an unseemly place without any embarrassment.
Fortunately, he still knows how to hide it from outsiders.
In late April, a letter came back from the northwest, and the Yun family actually moved back to Kyoto.
Since the Yun family moved to the northwest, Xiao Yun's family has not even been able to visit her parents' home during the holidays. Now that she heard that they are moving back to Beijing, she was happy at first, but confused later.
The Yun family was afraid of the imperial court because they held military power, so they invited themselves to garrison in the northwest.
Now that Emperor Chengxing is still on the throne, Empress Dowager Jiang is still alive and well, and Xiao Mu has not ascended the throne, the whole Yun family is still in the same situation as it was when they left Kyoto.
As a result, the Yun family will inevitably be thrown into this whirlpool, which will inevitably arouse people's suspicion.
But the people from the northwest only said that they wanted to go back to Beijing, and there was not much. For a while, they had no way of asking, so they had to wait until they returned to Beijing.
Not only Xiaoyun became suspicious, but Song Qinghuan also felt something was wrong.
When Xiao Ci was asked about this matter, Xiao Ci just said: "We will find out when they come back."
Although he didn't say a word, his heart was still heavy.
The Cao Family Army and the Yun Family Army are two major disputes between the forces in the DPRK and China. If one party can support him, Xiao Mu's position as the crown prince will be unstable. If both parties support him, who do he really want to be?
Anyone can be the emperor.
These two forces are wanted by anyone in the royal family who is ambitious, but they are also two major scourges.
When our ancestors founded the country, they supported the Cao family's army, the Yun family's army, and the Hong's family's army. The three armies stood in opposition to each other.
However, the descendants of the Hong family army failed to live up to their expectations and were increasingly defeated. They were no longer ranked in Kyoto, which helped the other two parties.
Whether it is Cao Jiajun or Yun Jiajun, they are both capable figures. The reason why they invited themselves to garrison in the border town one after another is to stay away from the court battles.
But now that the Yun family has returned to Beijing, it can't really be considered a good thing.
When the letter was received in Kyoto at the end of April, the Yun family had already traveled one-third of the journey.
The Yun family's Zhenxi General's Mansion has been vacant for many years, with only a few old servants left to guard it. Now that it is coming back, it will naturally have to be tidied up.
Only the Yun family has no master, and the remaining servants are too old to be the master. This matter naturally falls on Xiao Yun's head.
Song Qinghuan always had nothing to do, so he said he would join in the fun and study.
Xiaoyun simply took Song Qingyan along with her, the maid, the wife and the boy, and went to the Zhenxi General's Mansion to clean up.
In addition to sweeping the courtyards, any dilapidated or damaged areas need to be repaired.
Walls need to be painted, tiles need to be repaired, and paint that has fallen off needs to be repainted.
As soon as the courtyards were repaired, they were swept clean, fumigated for a few days, the windows and coffins were covered with green gauze, items were moved out of the warehouse, and the several main courtyards were placed.
The bedding and bedding have been left for a long time. What should be replaced should be replaced, and what should be added should be added.
The weeds in the garden need to be removed, the potted flowers need to be pruned, the artificial lake needs to be dug out, watered again, a few fish need to be raised, and a lotus plant needs to be moved.
The place where the servants live must also be cleared out.
It would take half a month to get everything sorted out if I was busy in general.
Since receiving the letters at the end of April, the Yun family has not sent any letters back. Xiao Yun is afraid that it will be too late and that when they come back, they will not even have a place to stay.
After being busy for so many days, I was extremely tired. One day I felt dizzy when I got up, and I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. I even broke out in a cold sweat.
Because she was busy with the Yun family's business, Xiao Yun did not dare to say anything. She only said that she had caught a wind, and the doctor didn't even look at it. She lay down for two days before she recovered.
In mid-May, Xiaoyun's sister-in-law, Bai, rushed back to Kyoto with others.
She had been rushing back all the way to clean up the courtyard, but she had already asked Xiao Yun to clean up the courtyard without thinking. She suddenly felt relaxed and full of joy.
I took my things to the Marquis of Qibei and found out that she was ill. I felt extremely guilty. He took her hand and said, "I'll set off after I've sent someone to deliver a letter. On the way, I asked your elder brother to deliver a letter and tell you."
There were only a few stops along the way, so I put it on hold, which made my sister very tired."
Xiao Yun had been lying down for a few days and her body felt better, but her complexion was still very bad. She sat down with Bai and laughed: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I live an idle life, and being idle in the house is also idle.
What I did was nothing more than easy things."
He added: "But I have raised myself to be delicate over the years, and even if there is a slight breeze, I will still be sick for a few days."
Bai's mother's family was also a martial artist, so she also had a sharp temperament. When she heard this, she laughed and said: "It's so delicate. You have already taken care of me before I went to Beijing. If you want to replace me, I don't have the ability."
"
The sister-in-law talked a lot about her, and Song Qingyan came to see her after receiving the letter.
When the Bai family left Beijing, Song Qingyan was not yet born, but now she has grown into a big girl. She sighed in her heart and gave her the short knife that she usually kept with her as a meeting gift.
Song Qingyan had never been in contact with this aunt, and her heart skipped a beat when she suddenly saw her giving him a short knife.
I'm afraid no one in Kyoto can do such a thing.
But Xiaoyun was very happy. If Bai hadn't liked Song Qingyan, she wouldn't have treated Song Qingyan with something personal as a gift. She hurriedly said, "It's a gift you can't refuse, why don't you accept it quickly."
When Song Qingyan saw the gift, he was dismissed by Xiaoyun again.
She still had something to ask Bai, so she asked the maid to close the doors and windows and guard the house. Then she lowered her voice and asked Bai: "Sister-in-law, you are doing well in the northwest, why do you suddenly want to come back to Beijing? The letter was not strict.
What I'm worried about these days is that something might happen."
After saying this, the smile on Bai's face faded and she became solemn.
