Chapter 33 (1/2)
”Princess!” Seeing the autumn billows coming out, the Qushan family was very excited.
Qu Shan's mother, Li Ma, is almost sixty years old. She is the son of Xihe palace. She is very talented in cooking. In her early twenties, she took charge of the diet of Xihe Princess Tai.
After the death of Princess Xihe, Qiu Mengmin was in charge of the family. He didn't trust the servants his mother had used, so he cleaned up the royal palace. The Qushan family would have been sold that time. It was Princess Ruan who came out to protect a group of people, so the Qushan family began to serve Princess Ruan's mother and daughter.
It can be said that their family grew up with an extraordinary love.
At this moment, the master and servant saw each other again. Mother Li could not help but burst into tears and sobbed and kowtowed: ”I don't want to see the princess again!”
”Mom Li, get up!” Autumn drag Lan was frightened by this situation, hurried down to pull her.
After persuading the Qushan family and waiting for them to calm down a little, Qiulan asked: ”Mom Li, you are not Have you left Beijing yet? ”
According to mother Zhou, the Qushan family was sold to an official who was released. It seemed that the official was going to work in Lingnan - with the traffic at that time and the age of mother Li, it would really go to Lingnan. It's estimated that she will never be able to see her in this life, so her excitement is not exaggerated.
”The old slave family was indeed sold to the Wu magistrate in Lingnan and brought out of Beijing.” Li's mother just calmed her mood and was asked to cry again. ”But before Wu Zhifu went to the south of the Yangtze River years ago, she was retired because of Ding you! He brought the old slave family back to Sangzi, just three days from the capital. Two days ago, suddenly someone came over and claimed to buy the old slave family to return to the Royal Palace at the order of the princess. The magistrate Wu asked the old slave about his wishes. The old slave family would certainly like to come back to serve the princess... ”
”Autumn drag LAN heart a jump, with the first Ruan Qing Yan look at one eye, take off the mouth way:” I don't know where you were sold, how can buy you back
”What you said, princess.” ”Mother Li sobbed,” those people are actually sent by the prince and Princess yang to kill the old slaves. On the way back to Beijing, they suddenly turned their faces! I'm going to tie up the old slaves and throw them into the river! I'm sorry that general Jiang arrived in time with others. I can't see the princess again until I have the old slave's family! ”
”Autumn drag LAN facial expression iron green, way:” then? River Cliff What can general Jiang say? ”
”When Jiang Xiaojun escorted the old slaves to the capital, he instructed them to come here to join the princess -” mother Li raised her sleeves and wiped her face, pleaded, ”the old slaves had planned to serve the princess and the princess for generations. Before the princess left, they also told the old slaves to take care of the princess! Now that you can see the princess, please accept her! ”
Li's mother's voice did not fall, and Qu Shan behind her had quietly held a stack of sales agreements with her hands.
Autumn drag LAN sighed, didn't take the deed of sale, but said: ”mother Li, I don't hide it from you - you almost suffered this time, I think it should have something to do with me.”
”How can I blame the princess? Although I am stupid, I also know that when I served Princess Tai, I would naturally get in the way of the eyes of the prince and Princess Yang. ” When Li's mother heard this, she didn't complain, but smiled, ”it seems that she didn't do anything absolutely when she sold the old slave family to Wu Zhifu. But if it wasn't for Wu Zhifu to return home, the old slave family would have gone to Lingnan where the miasma was rampant. I'm afraid that the old slave would have died before she arrived! Qushan they are not good people, may not be able to live! On the other side of the palace, it's clear that he wants to exchange the lives of the old slaves for money! ”
She took the deed of sale from Qu Shan's hand, and came forward trembling, and put it into Qiu shailan's hand. ”You, princess, don't you want the old slave's family to serve you?”
On this point, qiutiailan can only accept the deed of sale. She is in a very complicated mood - Ruan Qingyan's mouth is slightly hooked. She thinks that since the Qushan family was used by Ruan's Princess and almost killed by Qiu Mengmin's people, it should be credible. He is worried that there are too few people around to serve him now. The Qushan family is coming back to solve his worries.
Therefore, seeing that qiuhualan received the deed, she immediately rewarded Qushan family with fifty Liang silver, which was regarded as a reward for their loyalty.
Qiu ran and Zhou's mother went to settle down with Qu Shan's family. Ruan Qingyan called Qiu Huanan to discuss: ”it seems that the former empress dowager Gu agreed to discuss Qiu Mengmin's affairs after the Lantern Festival, mainly to give Qiu Mengmin a chance to kill people and kill their mouths!”
”We didn't expect that - but it doesn't work. We don't have so many people! Thanks to the Jiang family. ”
She frowned. ”In fact, if you are a witness, because only servants, after all, can't stand it! I'm worried about physical evidence. ”
Ruan Qingyan said: ”do you mean genealogy? It's not that easy to do it on the genealogy? ”
At this time, the regular wife can be recorded in the genealogy. As for concubines, unless they have children, they will not be recorded.
Lu Laofu has Qiu Mengmin in his life, so it's recorded in the Qiu family tree - but after Xihe Taifei formally drove her out - the so-called formality does not lie in that after Lu Laofu was driven out of the Royal Palace, she passed away until Taifei passed away, and she never went back. It lies in Xihe Taifei's order to delete her from the family tree!
In this way, I have nothing to do with the palace!
