Qi Yuning said to Lu Ze, "Lingling hasn't seen you and me for a long time. I'm afraid she might be anxious. You go find Lingling first, and I'll go to the palace." Lu Ze said: "I will wait for you here." Qi Yuning said: "There are so many memorial tablets here, so it's best for you to go find Lingling first." Lu Ze responded: "Okay." Lu Ze walked out of the door. Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze's leaving figure, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned around to get three sticks of incense. Qi Yuning lit three sticks of incense, looked at the small tablet without words, bowed and said: "I don't know whether you should be a nephew or a niece. I can't seek justice for you. Is it an aunt or not? I hope you will be reincarnated as soon as possible and find a father and mother who are looking forward to you." After Qi Yuning gave birth to Lingling, she became more and more superstitious. The cluster of scalded incense ashes just now made Qi Yuning somewhat resentful in her heart. Although she knew it might be an accident because she wasn't sure, but now that she has Lingling, Qi Yuning is really afraid of provoking someone she shouldn't. And today is another dirty day of the Dragon Boat Festival. Qi Yuning said to the abbot beside him: "Please recite the rebirth mantra for this unborn child several times, so that he can be saved and reborn into a good family in the next life."
The abbot clasped his hands together and said, "Yes, Princess." Qi Yuning smelled the scent of sandalwood and thought that this was a temple, and his frightened heart gradually calmed down. Qi Yuning walked outside the Xi'an Hall and saw Lu Ze waiting for her at the door. Qi Yuning was slightly surprised and said, "You didn't leave?" Lu Ze asked in a low voice: "Why can't you seek justice for your nephew and niece?" Qi Yuning said: "It's nothing." Lu Ze held Qi Yuning's hand and said, "When you saw that small tablet just now, you were full of fear and threatened to leave me. Now that you say it's nothing, do you think I will believe it?" Qi Yuning sighed. Lu Ze reached out and touched the red spot on the back of Qi Yuning's hand, "In this land of Buddhism, lying is not allowed." Qi Yuning looked at Lu Ze and said, "I won't lie, but I don't have to tell you. Just don't ask. Lingling has to wait impatiently." Qi Yuning left the Rest Hall and went to the Main Hall to see the majestic Buddha before he dared to hug Lingling again. Lingling saw Qi Yuning smiling. Her two little teeth that had just sprouted were very cute. On the way back to the princess mansion, Lu Ze kept staring at Qi Yuning and said, "Even if you don't tell me, I can find out in less than three days." Qi Yuning sighed and said, "I'll tell you after I get back home." She knew Lu Ze's ability. After all, Lu Shaoqing, who was an expert in solving crimes in Dali Temple before, knew the clues. Even if he kept it secret, he would learn the truth sooner or later. It was almost dusk when I returned home. Today, during the Dragon Boat Festival, a banquet was held in the Duke Lu's mansion, and a large family gathered together in a lively manner. Today, the Lu family's cousins won the first place in the dragon boat race, and the Lu family's elders were very happy. Even Lu Yun had not returned by night, and no one mentioned it. Until Mrs. Lu sat at the table, she frowned and said to Shen, "It's so late. Your husband hasn't come back yet. You just treat him like a nobody and don't know how to take good care of your husband. How can you be a wife like you?" of?" Shen Nian responded respectfully: "Yes, I will advise my husband carefully when he comes back."
Princess Pingrou said: "You can't blame Shen Nian for this." Lingling has grown teeth now. Although she only has two small deciduous teeth, she can bite something soft. Brother Han took a piece of mung bean cake and fed it to Lingling. One person fed it and the other ate it. The two children had a great time. Huh. Mrs. Lu Er said with a smile: "These two children are really good friends." Mrs. Lu said angrily: "We are not cousins after all, it is better to stay far away! After all, there are differences between men and women, but don't do anything disrespectful when the time comes..." Hearing Mrs. Lu's words, Qi Yuning felt angry in his heart, "Lingling and Brother Han are brothers and sisters, and Brother Han is the child with the surname Lu recorded in the Lu family tree." Lu Baozhu said: "One is two years old and the other is less than one year old. Only people with dirty minds would arrange these two children. I'm full. Second uncle, third uncle, second aunt and third aunt, you guys eat slowly." Lu Ze pulled Qi Yuning to stand up and said, "Let's say goodbye first." Madam Lu was so angry that her heart ached, and she even called for a doctor. Qi Yuning looked back at Mrs. Lu and said to Lu Baozhu after going out: "If I remember correctly, more than two years ago, Mrs. Lu said that she would not have long to live if she was seriously ill..." Lu Baozhu sighed: "I have to be like her when I get old, so that I can bring harm to Yi Qian!" Lu Ze frowned slightly and said, "Baozhu, don't talk about your grandmother like that." Lu Baozhu said: "She's so disgusted that she arranged a story between your eight-month-old daughter and Brother Han. It's not just a disaster for thousands of years!" Lu Baozhu took Qi Yuning's arm and said, "Ignore my brother." Qi Yu smiled lightly. After returning to the princess mansion, Lu Ze ordered the dining room to cook many of Qi Yuning's favorite dishes and ate in the room. Lingling also wanted to eat mung bean cake, but Ali was afraid that she would have too much food and refused to let her eat. Lingling was sobbing in Qi Yuning's arms aggrievedly, not letting Ali hold her. Qi Yuning hugged Lingling and said with a faint smile: "Little greedy cat, you have already eaten half a piece, you are not allowed to eat any more." Lingling became more and more aggrieved. Lu Ze held Lingling in his arms and said, "You can eat a whole piece of mung bean cake next year. Half a piece will be enough this year." "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Lingling cried herself to sleep in Lu Ze's arms. After Lu Ze gave the sleeping Lingling to Ali, he chuckled at Qi Yuning and said, "Lingling was even more greedy when she was a child than when she grew up. She only has two small teeth." Qi Yuning smiled: "Fortunately, you and I are from a well-off family and can't afford to be hungry." After dinner, Lu Ze and Qi Yuning took a walk in the courtyard to eat. The Dragon Boat Festival was hot during the day, but the summer breeze was very cool at night. Lu Ze lowered his head and looked at Qi Yuning and said, "Can you tell me how sorry you are for your nephew and niece now?" Qi Yuning let the maids disperse and sighed: "Lu Yun's child didn't die because of his mischief that night. It was because Shen Nian had prepared abortion pills long ago. She never thought about having that child from the beginning. " Lu Ze raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was a thin layer of anger in his eyes. After all, he was of the Lu family's blood. Qi Yuning saw Lu Ze's expression and sighed, "I didn't hide it from you on purpose. After all, this matter belongs to the second wife. I don't want to get too involved in it, for fear that I will become a bad person by then." Lu Ze said: "After we come back from hunting, we need to let Lu Yun know about the abortion."
Qi Yuning nodded slightly and said, "Yes." When Lu Ze mentioned the hunting matter, all the important officials in the imperial court agreed. A lot of things happened to the Dasheng royal family in the past two years, and they were missing a grand event. The day of the hunting was set, and they set off from Shengjing City on May 28th. He didn't return to Shengjing until mid-June. The hunting season is definitely here, and the princes and daughters of the officials and officials in the capital are all very happy. It is rare to have such a grand gathering. Even the business of the silk and satin shop is booming, and they are all buying new riding clothes. After Lu Yun returned to the room, he saw Shen Nian embroidering a man's clothes. He stepped forward and asked, "Why are you embroidering clothes?" Shen Nian took off the needle and chuckled: "This hunting is very grand, so you have to wear new clothes. This is the brocade material that my mother recently rewarded. It is just right for you to make a suit of clothes. You try it first." " "For me?" Lu Yun looked at the gentle and thoughtful man in front of him and said with a smile: "As expected, I ate cold rice and green vegetables in front of the Bodhisattva every day when I was a monk. At that time, I prayed to the Bodhisattva every day to give me a gentle and lovely wife. I didn't expect that the Bodhisattva would actually do it. It gave me what I wanted!" Thinking about it, if he had not become a monk at that time, but had married Qi Yuning, it would be impossible to imagine Qi Yuning sewing clothes for him... Now that I have such a gentle and virtuous wife, so what if it is a second marriage to my husband!
Lu Yun picked up Shen Nian, kissed her on the face, and turned her around twice. "Daddy, give me a hug!" When Lu Yun heard Brother Han's voice beside him, he put down his thoughts and raised Brother Han to hug him, "When you go to Chang'an, daddy will teach you how to hunt."
