Chapter 71 Learning from Scripture
I've been busy for so long and finally got a day off. Mu Yanlang didn't plan to do anything today. He just spent the rest of his life in the back house to accompany his princess and daughter, teasing the little man Zixuan, and the discipline discipline is about to enter the Hongwenguan's second son Ziqian.
Mu Yanlang has two children born from a concubine, one is the daughter of the concubine, and the other is the son of the concubine. Mu Yanlang called the children to his side for lunch together, and after lunch, the children went down to have lunch break.
He was resting in the Princess' Courtyard. He was having lunch break and was teasing his youngest son. He heard someone come to report that the Ruiwang and his wife came to visit.
Mu Yanlang was stunned for a moment. Why did he come here at this time? I can't tell what the fifth brother meant? Mu Yanlang handed his younger son to his son's nanny, and he took the princess with him to meet him quickly.
After seeing each other, Mu Yanlang laughed and patted Mu Yanrui's arm, "Why are you thinking about it today, Brother Wu, come to the elder brother?"
Mu Yanrui also smiled and said, "What, brother doesn't welcome me?"
Mu Yanlang said with a funny look, "How could it be? The fifth brother and sister are rare guests, why would I not welcome brother?"
Mu Yanrui laughed at the moment when he heard this, "It was my brother's fault, it was my brother's fault. I had been busy with disaster relief before. When I came back, something happened every now and then. I didn't find time to come to my elder brother's mansion to pay my respects. After I found the time, I would come to my elder brother's mansion and eat and drink."
"Hahaha, the main thing is important, the main thing is important, we brothers don't have to be so polite," Mu Yanlang smiled cheerfully, "As for free food and drink, that's not OK. My mansion doesn't accept free food and drink."
"Oh, that's fine. Anyway, you won't do anything to me when I'm lying on it. You'll get it after all." The two brothers walked into the mansion with laughter, and Princess Ping took Princess Rui's hand and followed behind.
"Sister-in-law, the craftsmen in your mansion are really good at it. The flowers and plants in your mansion are still so lively in winter. It feels comfortable to see them. I don't want the ones in my mansion, but they look at them just like they are. The more I look at them, the more annoyed I feel."
Princess Ping smiled and said, "This is really my luck. Last year, the prince accompanied me to Hongen Temple to pray for blessings. The foot of Hongen Temple is not all villages where flowers are planted to make a living. When we went down the mountain, we happened to meet a family to sell our son.
It turned out that his eldest son was not really angry and had a gambling position and owed a lot of debts. The creditor chased him to his family and wanted to collect their flower fields to pay off the debt.
If the family of Huatian is gone, they will really not be able to live, and they have no daughter, so they can only sell their son below.”
Princess Rui opened her eyes wide in curiosity, "Ah, then you and Your Highness bought the person back?"
Princess Ping felt a little reluctant, "Since I met you, the prince also checked and sent someone to check you, it was pretty good, but he was not valued at home, and he happened to meet us and bought it when we went down the mountain and placed it in the village where I dowry it in the suburbs of Beijing.
Later, the prince sent someone to check carefully. He was put in the mansion when there was no problem and followed the old master who was in charge of flowers and plants in the mansion. Unexpectedly, he was really a little capable."
"Ah, then you are lucky. You have the ability to buy any person." Princess Rui thought about it and whispered to remind Princess Ping, "Sister-in-law, then you and Your Highness should be more careful. His elder brother was not involved in gambling. I heard that once this person is involved, it will be difficult to quit. Please pay attention, don't let him do bad things under the name of our Prince Ping's Mansion."
"Thank you, my brother and sister, for reminding me that when the prince transferred people into the mansion, he sent someone to pay attention to it." As he said that, Princess Ping was a little discouraged, "Oh, it's all useless. Except for the inner house in this mansion, I don't understand the outside affairs at all. Even these small things have to be taken care of by the prince."
"Oh, look at what I said. With Your Highness here, these things will naturally not happen. I am talking too much. However, we are the women in the inner house. We just need to manage our own acres of three-point land. As for the vast world outside, it will be left to their men to deal with. Let's stay in the inner house with peace of mind. You said, are you right?
"What my brother and sister said is that we are women in the inner house, as long as we manage our inner house," but as for the other princess Ping, I didn't say much.
The group quickly entered the palace. Mu Yanlang took Mu Yanrui to the front hall. Princess Ping took Princess Rui to the inner courtyard, and asked Zijin and Ziqian, who had not yet entered the Hongwenguan to study, Zixuan, who was still in the quilt, and two illegitimate children to pay homage to Princess Rui. Then, someone took a few children to pay homage to Princess Rui.
After a while, the two girls and the little little man Zixuan who was still in the quilt were brought back, and the two older boys stayed in the front hall.
Although Princess Ping was not as good to the children born to Prince Ping as she was, she never lost anything to them. The two children also hired someone to teach them. When the boys got to age, they would go to Hongwenguan to study, and the girl would ask the nanny to teach them in the mansion.
Boys who have not entered school will invite someone to educate their children when they are three years old, and when they reach the age, they will be sent to the school for formal enlightenment.
After a while, a girl came back. The second lady who was born in illegitimate was still young and her eyes were so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes. Princess Ping asked her nanny to take her back to rest, and took the little man and hugged her.
As soon as Zi Jin came back, Princess Rui pulled the little girl into her arms, "Sister-in-law, how did you teach the child? But I'm so scared that I want a daughter, but I always don't get what I want."
Princess Ping shook the little man in her arms and comforted Princess Rui softly, "Don't be anxious, there will be any. If you are too anxious, it may have an impact. Let it go naturally, maybe it will happen soon."
It was time for Zijin to learn from the girl's red, and Princess Rui could only let go of the little girl. Zijin was very polite and bowed to the two of them before following the nanny to learn from the girl's red.
Princess Rui watched the little girl leave, and then said to Princess Ping with a sad feeling, "Oh, maybe I'm really anxious, but now Zixiao has entered school, my stomach is still not moving. The words of the Empress I entered the palace that day were that if there was no movement in my stomach, she would ask His Majesty to give the prince a new man."
Princess Ping didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only sigh and pat Princess Rui's hand to show comfort.
Mu Yanlang was also asked a similar question by Mu Yanrui in the front hall, "Brother, what kind of child are you? My son is not as sensible as Ziqian. I am so angry that I want to slap him a few times, but I can't do it anymore. Now the bigger I feel, the harder it is to discipline me."
Mu Yanrui looked at his two sons. Whether it was Ziqian or Ziqiao, the concubine. Although the two children were still young, they were basically good at choosing the rules. "You can't bear to let go, so you spoil your child like this. If you make up your mind, you will not be able to teach you."
Mu Yanrui touched his nose and thought to himself, "It seems like yes." The two brothers talked about other things.
Later, the school was finished in Hongwenguan. Mu Zixiao followed her cousin Ziqi back to the Pingwang Mansion. The family of three had dinner at the Pingwang Mansion before returning home.
After Mu Yanlang and his wife lay down in the evening, they did not immediately fall into their dreams to meet Duke Zhou. Princess Ping asked Mu Yanlang, "Your Highness, what is the purpose of King Rui and the others coming to our mansion today."
Mu Yanlang patted the princess, "It's okay, no matter what their intentions are, if I'm here, don't worry, go to bed." Mu Yanlang closed his eyes and thought.
