Chapter 123

When Xue fangmi plans to use Fang Nongyan to deal with qiutiaolan, qiutiaolan is chasing Qi laotaiyi in the general's mansion and asks, "is there really no way?"

"No." The old doctor Qi couldn't even open the prescription this time. He sighed and said, "the oil ran out and the light was dry. The last time he was ill, he almost To tell you the truth, it's not easy for the old general to survive until now. What's more, it's painful for him to lie like this now. It's a blessing to have gone earlier. "

"Autumn drag LAN facial expression iron green, very long square way:" thank you old too doctor

"I dare not." Old Qi Taiyi has a lot to do with the Jiang family. He vaguely knows Jiang Yashuang's attitude towards her. He dare not trust her. He is very guilty and says something about her poor learning skills. After a while of meditation, he finally says, "since the princess has come, don't go back these two days."

This is the day when general Ruan's life ended.

Send off Qi old doctor, autumn drag LAN drag a heavy step into the inner room.

Ruan Qingyan is dressed in a green shirt, with a bamboo hairpin in a bun. He is silent at the side of the sickbed. The young man's hands are as long as jade, and tightly hold the withered hands in the bedding. The sun in summer shines magnificently on the ground in front of the couch through the south window. The grandparents and grandchildren hidden in the tent are like an oil painting that precipitates the years. At this moment, speechless is better than thousand words, and the autumn billows dare not come forward.

Hesitated to meet, see Ruan Qingyan ignore their own meaning, she decided not to disturb.

Back to the door to see winter dye and autumn dye eyes red waiting for themselves, autumn swaying LAN motioned them to a far place, just stopped after they did not know what to say?

Fortunately, Dong ran wiped his eyes and said, "since the old doctor Qi said that, the maid bravely asked," what happened behind the old general...? "

“…… Let's get them. " Autumn LAN does not know much about posterity, but also knows that at this time, burials are popular. Ruan's family, no matter how down and out, is not comparable to ordinary people. In particular, Ruan Qingyan is the successor of general Ruan. He didn't serve general Ruan for a few days, but he came to the end of his life. The level of scenery of general Ruan's future affairs will directly determine his evaluation of filial piety in the future. This evaluation is life-long.

Since dongran said the most difficult thing to export, the following discussion also made sense: "longevity materials and clothes are made many years ago. It's banquets and stuff There has been no banquet in the mansion for more than ten years, and the Ming hall used to entertain guests has been damaged for many years, which will surely be too late to be repaired - the guests and the venue... "

"If I can't, I will simply tear down some houses that are not tight and are not easy to repair." "Autumn traction Lan thought for a moment just way," in the open place set up a shed son

Just as he was saying this, the first servant came to report: "little Marquis Ling is here, but the young master can..."

"Don't disturb my cousin." "Autumn drag LAN to shake head way," please Ling small Hou ye to flower hall to serve tea, I go to explain with him

Lingzui didn't take a pretty maid with him this time. When qiuhualan came into the flower hall, he even saw that he had a pair of whip in his hand. Apparently, as soon as he received the news, he drove his horse to come. Lingzui asked: "old general?!"

"Old doctor Qi asked me not to go back to the palace these days." Qiu traction LAN nods and sighs in a somber way. It's not an accident. After all, general Ruan is just delaying the day. Everyone knows that for a long time.

"How about Chunjun now?" Lingzui asked after calming down. Chunjun is the character from the list of Ruan Qingyan. Although according to the ancient rule, it is twenty plus crown, Ruan Qingyan entered the government ahead of time. It's not convenient to call him "Chunjun".

"Autumn drag LAN bitterly a smile:" guard in front of grandfather, who dare not disturb

Ling Zui paced back and forth in the hall for a few steps, and said with some annoyance: "I know his mood now - it's just that he's alone in the army mansion. Please take care of him!"

"That's the reason, but it's hard to know and easy to do." "After all, my cousin has always been filial."

It's only a few days since my grandparents and grandchildren were reunited. They are going to die or die. What are some words to persuade me?

Ling Zui frowned, "shall I have a look?" See autumn drag LAN to ponder, he way, "you rest assured, see at the door, if he is impatient to talk, I also don't make him."

"Then come with me." Autumn traction LAN pondered, although Ling Zui is famous in the capital not Xiao Fang. Dang, but at present he and Ruan Qingyan are not all friends, or have some sincere friendship, otherwise the decision will not receive Ruan old general on the verge of death so hurried to come.

As expected, he was led to the back. Zhang came to Ruan Qingyan outside the door and held Ruan's hand. Behind the scenes, Ling Zui just sighed silently, then he copied his hand and stood under the corridor without disturbing.

Autumn drag LAN looks at Ruan Qingyan in the room and is stunned for a moment. All the time, Ruan Qingyan gives her the impression of being smooth, decisive and ruthless. The city is so deep that it's not like a young man who hasn't been crowned. But at the moment, she looks at her cousin who has been in front of her now with the gesture of protection and teaching. She remembers that this cousin, in fact I'm only eighteen.

Even at this time, 18-year-old men, still under the care of their elders, concentrate on reading or enjoying people also exist. However, Ruan Qingyan has taken on the responsibility of rise and fall early. He should not only look after his elders, but also consider the future of his sisters.Think about it and feel heavy in my heart. It's sour.

"Sister Ning Yi, you are here." She was in a trance. Suddenly her sleeve was pulled. Ling Zui said in a low voice, "I'll see if there's anything I can do for you It's not convenient for a little girl who wants to come to you for this public event. "

Lingzui has no feelings with general Ruan. What he worries about is his friend Ruan Qingyan. Seeing Ruan Qingyan's appearance, he can't see things for the time being. So Lingzui naturally thinks that since general Ruan's life is in these two days, once it's gone, with Ruan Qingyan's current state, he can't plan things in order.

But Qiu dralan, a 13-year-old girl who was able to come out to see the guests, was the daughter of Ruan Qingyan before. At this time, Lingzui felt that if he didn't help, there would be a problem in general Ruan's funeral - although he didn't know much about it, as the son of the Lord and Marquis, this kind of thing could not defeat him.

Autumn drag LAN to his initiative to ask for a tassel nature won't have an opinion, sucked to suck a nose, low voice way: "bother you."

"That's not true." Lingzui looked at her eyes slightly red and pathetic, and subconsciously wanted to tease her, but he didn't think it was appropriate to cough twice to cover up the past. "You stay here with Chunjun, and don't pay attention to the common things these two days. I'll go back to the government to find some clever managers to help me and decide not to worry about your brother and sister."

It was only when he left that qiunie, a visitor from the general's office, came again.

This is the second time that Qiu Zhaolan has seen Qiu Nie. The man who was selected from the same family as Ruan Qingyan was dying when he went out of the Gongyuan. He looked forward to it with great grace. He was very surprised that Qiu Zhaolan came out to receive him: "brother Ruan now...?"

"My cousin is now with my grandfather. He can't leave, so I can't come out to meet him. I'm sorry." Autumn drag LAN to fight spirit explanation, finally remembered, "also ask autumn Hanlin on behalf of elder brother and Shangguan to tell off."

Qiu Nie's ranking is not as high as Ruan Qingyan's, but both of them are young, so they are all put into the Imperial Academy for cultivation, both in the same family and colleagues.

This meeting listened to the words of Qiu Huanlan, and Qiu Nie nodded slightly: "please rest assured, princess, now almost all the people in Beijing know about the general's mansion, and you should have heard about it if you want to come to Lord Ding."

They were not familiar with each other. Qiu Nie didn't like to be familiar with the beauty when he saw Ling Zui, so he talked politely and left.

Not long after he left, Lingzui brought people from Jingchuan Houfu. Next, there will be no visitors to worry about Qiulan.

This time, she quietly went to the door of general Ruan to look around, but was immediately called in by Ruan Qingyan: "you also heard from old doctor Qi about grandfather's situation. Now I have several things to tell you."

"Autumn drag LAN is busy way:" cousin please say

"Grandfather once..." Ruan Qingyan has cleaned up his appearance. He can't see crying except for the tiny infrared ray in his eyes. He recovers his calm look and says calmly, "I'm sure I want Ding you to be filial."

This is the right thing to do. It is rare for officials to avoid it. It is better not to avoid it. Otherwise, after more than ten decades, they will inevitably be criticized by political enemies.

Autumn drag LAN in the mind know, also no accident: "I know."

"But Ruan's family is not from the middle of Beijing. Laizhou is not too far away from Beijing. It will take two or three days for a single person to ride fast back and forth." Ruan Qingyan continued, "my grandfather's son and grandson are no longer alive. I am the only one who has lost his life. I have to be filial for three years. I can't rest assured that I will leave you alone in Beijing. "

"What does cousin want?" Autumn drag LAN reluctantly smiled, heart way, you are not good to take me to Laizhou?

But listen to Ruan Qingyan: "I have the heart to take you to Laizhou, but think about three years ago, whether you are Ruan or not, it's really inappropriate." Speaking of this, his face showed a lack of color. "I knew that I would not go to fight for the idea of a high-ranking girl, and I chose a virtuous woman of a good family to marry, so I have a reason to take you with me."

"Autumn drag LAN bit lower lip:" actually I can take care of oneself

"So I thought about it just now." Ruan Qingyan didn't pay any attention to this sentence and said, "I've decided to find a support for you."

"Autumn drag LAN is surprised way:" what

"I'm going to let you worship Princess Mao Dechang, the mother of Lord Ling, as your adoptive mother." Ruan Qingyan rubbed his eyebrows and said, "earlier, Lord Ling suggested this, but I think since I'm in Beijing, we can solve the problem ourselves, just come by ourselves. I don't need to disturb the long princess. But now... "

After a long stay in autumn, tsailan said, "I will have filial piety, and I can also worship my adoptive mother."

"Princess maode has always been soft hearted, and most partial to the Lord Ling." Ruan Qingyan said, "I'll talk to lingxiaohouye about it. It shouldn't be a problem."

He added, "Princess Chang and Jingchuan Hou are all members of Xue Xiang. Last time, Miss Xue's family made a scene, Xue felt very guilty to me. So if you are the daughter of the long princess, Xue Xiang will surely look after you in secret. "

"Who wants the care of the Xue family?" "Autumn drag LAN sneers," that Miss Xue Hey! "

"Don't worry about it." When she heard about Xue's family, she was furious. Ruan Qingyan, the humiliated party, was as calm as if nothing had happened. "Since you also think Miss Xue's family is sorry for me, isn't Xue's compensation one or two what we should have?"After thinking about it, Qiu traction Lan said angrily: "Miss Xue is crazy. Blind people can see how innocent you are, and she picked you to bully you! Who knows if it will burn me back? "

This made Ruan Qingyan frown and think for a long time, then he said: "you usually don't go out, Xue Xiang won't let Miss Xue go to the West River Palace. If the palace is in trouble with you, send someone to tell Princess Mao De, and ask her to come out for you. "

Worried about his sister's embarrassment at that time, he simply said, "I will offer rich fat money to the eldest princess on New Year's day. In addition to the friendship with Ling Zui, the eldest princess is right to give you a head start. You don't need to bear the trouble."

Autumn drag LAN silence a moment just way: "you don't say these expenses all you! Now I have an estate... "

"Your property is all your dowry. How much do you think Xihe palace will give you in the future?" Ruan Qingyan rebuffed, "the rich and powerful people in the south are beyond your imagination. This expenditure is nothing to me. I can rest assured that you have a good life - that's the way it is!"
