Blissful Days After Widowhood

The Queen Mother still remembers that Wu Qingyi was ordered to resettle her family from one place to another.

She and Wu Qingyi got along for a long time, occasionally chatting, and learning that he never returned home after joining the army.

How can a person who has not returned home for eight years have a six-year-old child?

Emperor Zheng Yuan knew this.

It was obvious that the child was not born to Wu Qingyi.

But whether Wu Qingyi's wife remarried, or adopted such a child, naturally has to be verified again.

The quickest way is to ask Wu Qingyi directly.

"

It's really embarrassing.

It is Wu Qingyi that this Jane is in the heart of the emperor, and Emperor Zhengyuan does not want to embarrass him.

This needs to be verified.

Fortunately, there is no need to send someone to Hanshan Town.

Because Gu Yin and the others came with the Wen family.

You don't need to alarm the British government, just ask someone from the Wen family to find out.

Emperor Zhengyuan asked people to go out of the palace to Wen's house immediately to inquire, and he stayed in Cining Palace and waited for news with the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother put on her makeup and took out a small yellowish portrait that had been treasured for many years.

After Lu Lie got lost, Wu Qingyi found a painter and drew it according to her and Queen Zhou's description.

The Queen Mother has not dared to open this portrait for a long time. The child in the portrait is more than two years old, with big eyes, small nose and small mouth. Very familiar, but seems a little strange.

She rubbed the face of the child in the portrait, and finally placed her fingers under the eyes of the child in the portrait, "I don't remember, whether there are moles under Ali's eyes."

"Don't be sad, mother, and think about it when the news comes."

That night, the people sent by Emperor Zhengyuan inquired about Gu Ye's life experience from the mouth of the Wen family.

His background is known to everyone near the pier in Hanshan Town, and it is not a secret.

I heard that he escaped from the boat and fell there. The Queen Mother's tears rolled down like beads with a broken thread.

"It's our Alie, it must be!"

When Lu Lie was lost for a while, Emperor Zhengyuan sent someone home to get this news.

In the back, Wu Qingyi asked people to find him. He brought the little elephant to inquire many times, and then he inquired about the child in the hands of the ocean-going ship.

Although the ocean-going shipping line is backed by authority, but what it does is abducting people and hurting people, and it does not dare to act boldly in broad daylight.

After they catch the child, they will not send it away directly, but will raise the child a little bit, and throw away the poor and sick halfway. When choosing the right time, treat the children as goods and ship them overseas uniformly.

Wu Qingyi led people all the way to find them, and finally saved a boat of children.

However, there was no Lu Lie among them. After interrogating the crew, they found out that many sick children had been abandoned by them halfway into the barren mountains and fields to die, and they also lost a child along the way.

Wu Qingyi didn't dare to think about whether Lu Lie was ill and let them lose it. He only thought that the lost child was him, so he followed the track before the ship, one town after another. The town, a county to a county to find.

This time, they still got nothing, and when the return date set for them by Emperor Zhengyuan, Wu Qingyi could only go back empty-handed.

At that time, the Queen Mother still had the idea that her eldest grandson could live, and she was very clear about the ins and outs of things.

That's why she was so excited.

Emperor Zheng Yuan was also very happy, of course, he hurried around the hall several times.

But after a while, he calmed down and said, "Mother, this matter can't be spread out."

What I know now is that the child from the British government was adopted, and most of them were lost by the ocean-going ship. As for whether the lost one was Lu Lie, someone had to check it out.

Some of them fled to the south of the remnants of the past, and the people from ocean-going ships were among them, but those people have long been the turtles in the urn. Find out what happened to the kid.

future life.

After hearing this, the Queen Mother nodded again and again: "Okay, I will listen to you, just wait for conclusive evidence, and then we will bring Alie back!"

The situation is the same as his eldest grandson, and the age is more correct. It is a coincidence, who can believe it?

Even if the eldest grandson cannot return to the palace, she can often go out to see him.

She had given up hope in the past, thinking that her eldest grandson was long gone, and the current situation is completely unexpected, but it was not a big problem to meet each other for a few months at night.

"Go to the Queen and tell her the good news!" The Queen Mother urged Emperor Zhengyuan to leave the Cining Palace.

The palace maids knelt in a row at the door, Empress Zhou came out with a frosty face, "Zhao'er is just recovering from a serious illness, and it is inconvenient to see people, please forgive me."

Looking back on the past, the two of them were childhood sweethearts and their relationship has always been very good. Even if Emperor Zhengyuan was out on a march and left her at home to support her in-laws, Queen Zhou never complained.

She has completely changed since her eldest son was lost.

Emperor Zheng Yuan was ashamed of her, not angry, but explained: "I didn't come to look after her, but to tell the queen something."

Queen Zhou still won't let him in, just let him speak straight.

Emperor Zheng Yuan asked the palace servants to retreat first, and then said: "It's our Lie Er..."

"Your Majesty still mentions him?!" Queen Zhou's voice was sharp and looked at him with hostility.

"Listen to me, there is a child, most likely Lie'er of our family. He is not dead, but alive and well."

Empress Zhou still said with a sullen face: "This is not the first time Your Majesty has said this to me, once, twice, three times... How many times will Your Majesty say it?"

The loss of the child was known to many of the old schools at the beginning, and later, someone sent the child to them, saying that they had found it, and wanted to take credit for it.

One time the person the other party looked for was very similar to the portrait, and the whole family thought they had really found it.

Empress Zhou happily brought her children to eat and live with her, and it was only two months later that she realized that this was another false identity.

Since then, Emperor Zhengyuan has not allowed anyone to mention this matter again, Queen Zhou's heart has completely cooled down, and she has worked hard to conceive her second child, the current little prince Lu According to the picture, he threw himself on the latter child.

"This time is really different." Emperor Zhengyuan was sour in his heart, and said with difficulty: "It was discovered by mother."

Empress Zhou sneered: "Didn't the queen mother pretend that Alie died long ago, chanting and praying for him every day, asking him to attain bliss early?"

"That's it." Emperor Zhengyuan sighed, "It's really not confirmed yet, when it's confirmed, I will come back to tell the queen."

In fact, he persuaded the Queen Mother not to announce the news to the public. The one who considers the most is the Queen Zhou. If she can't produce evidence to convince her mother, how can other people believe it? ? It's sad to think about.

…

Gu Ye went straight to his restaurant after leaving Jixiang Theater.

The first floor was still full, and it was rare that there were a lot of people sitting in the private room on the second floor.

Gu Yin was also waiting for him. Seeing him coming, the mother and son met to talk.

"Just now, Brother Xiaofeng told me that this method may not work, and I don't know yet."

Gu Yin also smiled and said: "The effect is very good. I didn't expect that there are many rich people in the theater. Although there are few people on the second floor, everything they want is expensive."

The effect is really better than Gu Yin expected. In her impression, many troupes and fans cannot accept changing the playbook.

Fortunately, even though Brother Xiaofeng is young, he is very flexible. He did not change the traditional drama, but changed the content of the new book.

Gu Ye spread his small hand in front of her, Gu Yin smiled and patted his hand, "What are you worried about? Can my mother still owe you? yours!"

Gu Ye said with a smile: "I don't want my mother to give me monthly money now, there is something that must be spent, and I have to pay from my mother first."

After he finished speaking, he explained that this is to find someone to write the playbook.

The troupe's new books are all bought from outside, and the price of good books is not cheap. For those who are not rich like Xiaofeng and the troupe, they can only get books with old-fashioned stories.

It would cost several taels of money for this kind of cliché.

And because the story is not novel enough, this kind of book will soon make the audience feel boring, and it needs to be updated and rearranged.

Gu Ye felt that it would be better to pay for it himself, and asked someone to write a story about Shiweitian Restaurant.

The effect of this publicity will of course be even better.

"Mother will leave this to me. I love to hear books and know how to distinguish good books!"

Seeing what he swore, Gu Yin paid him twenty taels of silver from the account.

Turn around that night, Gu Yin went home from work.

The mansion has already used the evening meal, and Mrs. Wang is talking with Wu Zhong.

Gu Yin sat with her for a while, then went to see the two children.

Wu An writes his homework quickly after school. Usually, he is ready to rest at this time.

He hadn't fallen asleep yet, he was sitting in front of the desk and writing hard, and Gu Ye also moved a chair and sat next to him and watched.

This little brat knows how to work hard?

Gu Yin lightened her hands and feet, the corners of her lips curved upward, thinking that Wu An had been studying for some time, and Gu Ye was still able to recognize a few big characters. I used to think that he was suffering outside and didn't want to restrict his nature.

Now that you know that your child is willing to learn, it is time for parents to pay attention to this issue.

The gentleman of the Wen family is naturally the first choice, but I don't know if that gentleman is willing to open the door to the children who have no foundation.

Just thinking of this, Gu Yin heard Gu Ye anxiously say: "You can't write like this!"

He has no ink in his stomach, can he still give instructions to Wu An?

Wu An really listened to his words and stopped writing, read the content on the paper, bit the pen and said, "I don't think there is any problem."

Gu Ye put on a small face and said very seriously: "How can you write that this pretty widow is doing better and better, and doesn't want to marry? She doesn't want to marry, so how can you write about her and the emperor later? Alright, how about going to the palace to be a concubine?"

Wu An said: "Why do you want to be an empress? Wasn't my sister-in-law a widow? Watch her work hard, raise her child, and then her child will study like me, and she can be an old Fengjun!"

Gu Ye frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "You can't write like this anyway! Why don't you listen to me? You don't want your wages?"

Wu An laughed: "I really don't want your money!"

In the past, when the family couldn't compare with the present, Wu An had no obsession with money, and he felt that it was right to help his sister-in-law.

Now I don't have to worry about food and clothing, let alone he.

But after speaking, Wu An rubbed the paper in front of him again, and dipped the brush in ink again, "Okay, I will write again as you said."

Gu Ye laughed and leaned on Wu An affectionately, "I knew you were the best."

Laughing and laughing, Gu Ye heard the sound and looked up, he didn't dare to smile - his mother came over with a black face.

"Mother came back very early today, haha!" Gu Ye got off the chair with a smile, and moved the chair to her in front of her, "Come here and sit for a while!"

Seeing his good-natured appearance, Gu Yin wanted to laugh again, but she held back and asked him: "Is this what you said about finding someone to write a playbook?"

Six-year-old children let seven-year-olds write the story of the pretty widow and the romantic emperor, it really makes people angry and funny!

"This...this." Gu Ye scratched his head and explained, "I want to write it myself, but I can't. And I don't let Wu An write it all, just write a general story and aria What else has to be written by someone!"

Is this kid still a writer?

Gu Yin no longer had a black face, and asked him what story he wanted to write.

Gu Ye became even more enthusiastic, and immediately said: "Then definitely can't write that kind of cliché! But it's the first time, so it's not too unconventional, so in fact, it seems to be with Miss Scholar. There is no difference in content.”

Then he elaborated.

When the pretty widow was a girl, she accidentally met the emperor in trouble. The two achieved a dewy marriage.

The pretty widow later became pregnant, and her family forced her to marry a dying man in order to protect her reputation.

Afterwards, she was a widow and brought her children. After the disaster in her hometown, she left her hometown and went to the capital to seek a living.

The owner of Shiweitian took pity on her, treated her favorably, and taught her craftsmanship.

The young master also had an unusual relationship with the little prince and became brothers of the opposite sex.

Behind, the emperor went out of the palace in small clothes, and met this pretty widow in Shiweitian.

Seeing that he has a woman's bun and has a child, the emperor thought she was remarried, and he loved her and hated her at the same time.

And her son, who was supposed to be the prince, was not recognized by the emperor, and was almost sent away by the emperor.

"I haven't thought about it yet." Gu Ye blushed and asked Gu Yin with bright eyes, "What do you think, mother?"

Gu Yin was speechless for a while.

Isn’t this the enduring novel on the Internet about running with the ball and chasing the crematorium?

If it hadn't been for the little brat who had been facing each other for several years, Gu Yin would have thought that he had passed through too!

Gu Yin didn’t read online articles very much, and after being shocked, she asked: “Isn’t it right, the emperor misunderstood her to marry again, the truth will come out if the two don’t talk, why torture her? ?"

Gu Ye stomped his feet, "How can this look good without misunderstanding? It's just that you have to misunderstand all the time, only this drama can be sung!" Then he counted his fingers and said, "This first scene , almost until they met in a restaurant. In the second scene, you can sing that the pretty widow became an outer room, and there was suffering and tortured each other. In the third scene, of course, the truth came out, they and He Meimei, the pretty widow When she became a queen, her son was successfully enthroned, and by the way, he promoted his old friend..."

He laughed to himself again, "Mother said what kind of official should I be?"

Gu Yin finally couldn't help laughing, "Why are you still carrying private goods?"

Gu Ye also laughed, smiling and looking a little disappointed.

Wang and Wu Zhong are elders, so I won't mention it. Wu An will never forget it. It is a good material for being born with reading skills. Wu Qingyi is born with supernatural power. One of them is capable of writing, the other is capable of martial arts. Not to mention his mother, her culinary talent is rare, her mind is flexible, and she can think of any way of publicity.

On the other hand, he claims to be smart, but he doesn't seem to be good at it. Sometimes I feel that I am the most ordinary and the most out of place in the family.

Although Gu Ye is younger than Wu An, he looks cheerful all day long, but maybe he has had such an experience in the past. In fact, his mind is more delicate than Wu An, and he is also more sensitive than Wu An.

When Gu Yin saw it, she pulled him into her arms, touched his back and said, "You have more ideas than me! Anyway, just write if you want."

She is not someone who dotes on children blindly, but when she sees his small eyes, her heart is soft and messy.

"How about being an official of the household department?" She asked tentatively, "I heard from the old man that your second uncle Wen will join the household department after the year."

"This is good, I like it!" Gu Ye immediately became happy.

Is there anything happier than making money?

…

The next morning, Gu Ye, who entrusted Wu An to write the outline of the play, went out.

Don't look at the fact that he and her mother swore a ticket yesterday, but he doesn't know where to find someone to write the aria.

He first went to Jixiang Theater to find Brother Xiaofeng.

Although Brother Xiaofeng grew up in a troupe, he didn't grow up in the capital, but came from Jingu.

He has only been here for a few months, and he only stays in the theater every day. The playbook of the new play he sings now is obtained from the owner of the theater.

He took Gu Ye to find the owner of the theater.

The owner of the garden is in his thirties, with a shrewd look.

At first, he was very polite to Brother Xiaofeng, but when he heard that he was looking for someone who could write the script and sings of the play, he immediately changed his face and said, "Brother Xiaofeng is Do you think the script I gave you is bad?"

He left the good dramas to his own troupe to sing, and the conventional ones were distributed to foreign troupes like Xiaofeng brother, naturally to support his own role, and not let Xiaofeng brother and that pretty actress Showing up too fast.

Although Brother Xiaofeng has a lot of criticism towards him in his heart, he can't show it when people are under the eaves, so he can only laugh and say: "What is the owner of the garden talking about, it's my friend, he I wrote a play story myself, and I want to find someone to polish it."

The owner of the garden looked at Gu Ye from head to toe again, and sneered: "Brother Xiaofeng, don't say anything that makes people laugh, this play is not a joke for children, how can it be everyone? Can you write anything?"

Gu Ye was also a little impatient, but he didn't shake his face because of his scorn, and still politely asked: "I just want to find someone to polish, whether I can write it well in the end or not, it's up to me I will bear it myself. I also ask the owner of the garden to introduce it."

Such a sloppy attitude, I think it is an excuse, and you don't need to count on him.

Brother Xiaofeng took Gu Ye away, and after leaving the house, he blamed himself: "I didn't help you."

Gu Ye waved his hand indifferently, "It's not going well at all, don't worry about it."

Seeing Brother Xiaofeng was really uncomfortable, Gu Ye laughed again: "It's just a little more effort, anyway, you're playing this drama now, how can you sing it until years ago, At that time, my playbook must have been written. There is a saying, 'If you leave him, butcher Zhang, do you have to eat pigs with hair'?"

Brother Xiaofeng laughed, looked around to make sure that no one was there, then lowered his voice and laughed: "Our garden owner is really surnamed Zhang!"

The two laughed for a while, Brother Xiaofeng went to practice, and Gu Ye walked out of the auspicious theater with his hands behind his back.

As he walked, he thought that he often wrote in the play, when poor scholars were short of money, some would go to copy books for the bookstore, and some would just write playbooks. If you go directly to the bookstore, will you be able to find such a person?

Just thinking about this, he almost bumped into someone!

Gu Ye had practiced martial arts, and immediately stopped when he noticed someone.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing an ordinary cotton robe standing in front of him, he was about thirty-five or six years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, very heroic.

Today is the day of the last court. After the last court, the emperor, Lu Shouyi, changed his clothes and left the palace.

The bodyguards who were good at concealment were sent out by him in advance, and they all followed the child that his mother said must be Lu Lie.

He hurried over and finally saw Gu Ye.

After seeing it, he knew why his mother was so sure that this child was the Lu family's child.

He and his eldest son have never met each other, and only carefully looked at his small portrait.

The child in front of me is not exactly the same as the statue, and has grown a lot, and it is not particularly similar to him or Queen Zhou.

But he just felt that it was him, it was him!

This kind of natural amiability, the echo of blood before blood relatives, cannot deceive people.

This child is also looking at him, must be thinking the same way!

Emperor Zheng Yuan's eyes were red with excitement, afraid of scaring the child, he tried to calm down before he was ready to speak.

However, before he could open his mouth, Gu Ye smiled apologetically at him, and said "I'm sorry" again, then walked past him with his hands behind his back, without a single glance Give more, without a single step.

Emperor Zheng Yuan:…

The situation seems to be different from what he thought.
