Chapter 39

At this moment, Concubine Hui arrived, she was a tall beauty, she looked about forty or so, she was kind and dignified.

The few who were still concubines did not get up, the rest of the concubines got up, and the prince Fujin was still squatting in peace.

When Concubine Hui was seated, the Crown Princess supported the Queen Mother and came out from the next room.

The crowd saluted again, the queen mother called out, and the concubines took their seats again.

The Empress Dowager looked at the granddaughters-in-law standing in a circle, and whispered some instructions to the nurses beside her, and then several court ladies came out with stools, and Shu Shu and the others got their seats.

The Queen Mother looked at Concubine Hui, and asked directly in Mongolian: "Sixteen Gege is four years old... Sixteen Elder Brother is also three years old... What does the Tai Hospital say, when will the two children start getting vaccinated..."

Twenty-five years after Kangxi, the princes and princesses of the harem have used the "cooked seedling method" to vaccinate against smallpox one after another.

The age of vaccination is usually between three and five years old, and the queen mother will ask Concubine Hui.

Although the fourth concubine handed over the palace power, there are young adopted sons and daughters in the palace, who are still brought up by concubines.

Sixteen Gege lived with his birth mother in the back hall of Yanxi Palace, and sixteen princes lived with his birth mother in the back hall of Yonghe Palace.

Concubine Hui stood up and didn't answer right away. She glanced at Concubine De before she smiled and replied in Mongolian: "The concubine has discussed with Concubine De's younger sister and also asked the imperial doctor. They said that the weather will be cooler after the Beginning of Autumn and before the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is suitable for vaccination...the date will be set during that period..."

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly, fixed her eyes on the red-clad Bafujin behind Concubine Hui, and then looked at Concubine De: "It's okay for Mrs. Liu to be happy..."

This question is about the pregnant concubine of the Yonghe Palace. Although the emperor has reached the age when his grandson is running around, the royal family pays attention to many children and blessings, and there are never too many princes and princesses.

Concubine De also stood up: "The imperial doctor asks for a pulse once every three days, saying that the child is well nourished and the pregnancy is stable... Wait until the twelfth lunar month, the empress will be able to have another grandchild..."

The Empress Dowager listened lovingly, looked towards Concubine Yi, saw Shu Shu and Wu Fujin's concubine side by side, with obedient eyebrows, and said to Concubine Yi: "Brother Jiu is also married, from now on your two daughters-in-law , but don’t be partial to any one..."

Concubine Yi, on the other hand, had a bit of a childlike attitude, and said coquettishly: "The concubine is raising the little seventeenth, how can I take care of them? The ninth daughter-in-law lives nearby, and the concubine can send someone to take care of her; the fifth wife is here , I have to trouble you to take care of me..."

After hearing this, the queen mother didn't think it was disobedient, but smiled and shook her head: "Tell my brothers to listen later, such a biased mother... not only favors the younger son, but also the younger daughter-in-law..."

Concubine Yi felt helpless, and sighed: "Let's say it's the fifth elder brother, even the ninth elder brother, the concubine doesn't bother to see it... The concubine still feels that she has only entered the palace for a few years, and she is no worse than a little girl... But they When the two brothers hit it there, the minister and concubine will be worried, and the minister and concubine are getting old..."

"Hahaha!"

The Queen Mother was delighted to hear that: "Now I can be a little girl too... I have to come over and wipe the cards when I have time, so you can win pocket money..."

Concubine Yi smiled and said: "Your Majesty said that, the concubine must take it seriously, from now on she will have to run to Ningshou Palace three times a day, and won't leave even if she is kicked out..."

The queen mother laughed: "Just come, I won't kick you out if you win money..."

Shu Shu has gained knowledge, only Concubine Rong didn't speak, for some reason, the other three concubines are fluent in Mongolian.

No matter if you know it before entering the palace, or you learn it after entering the palace, you are more self-motivated.

However, it is also obvious that the Empress Dowager treats Concubine Yi differently. She treats everyone else as a matter of routine, but she speaks more intimately to Concubine Yi.

Concubine Yi is Linglong's heart, with a very high EQ, even though the fifth elder brother is the eldest son, he still looks like letting go in front of the queen mother.

With such a biological mother, why is Brother Jiu a "stupid"? !

After talking with the third concubine, the queen mother turned to the princess and said: "The prince is afraid of the heat, so tell the servants to be careful, change the ice basin more often..."

The princess got up and answered.

The Queen Mother nodded and stood up: "Let's go..."

Everyone stood up: "Respectfully send off the empress dowager..."

The concubines did not move until the queen mother took the crown prince's hand and went to the next room.

The order of rank and rank is still the same as the order of six concubines, four concubines, and all the nobles.

Shu Shu looked at the clock in the hall, it took less than a quarter of an hour from the time the queen mother came out to the time the queen mother went in.

He still returned the same way, but when he reached Qiandongbei Station, Wu Fujin stopped and watched the group leave.

After passing the Imperial Garden, Concubine Yi sends Shu Shu back.

Shu Shu imitated Wu Fujin's style, and did not leave in a hurry. After watching Yifei and her party go far, he brought Xiaochun and Walnut back to the second office.

Logically speaking, Bafujin also lived here, so he should have met him on the road, but he hadn't seen her before. He probably followed Concubine Hui to Yanxi Palace.

Seeing Concubine Wei, Shu Shuyin remembered something, and asked Walnut in a low voice: "The concubine can also be the lord of the first palace, so which palace is Empress Wei in?"

"The back hall of Qixiang Palace..."

Walnut replied.

Shu Shu thought about the location of Qixiang Palace, in the southwest corner of West Sixth Palace, it seemed that there was no sense of existence.

But since it is the Sixth Palace of the West, the Eight Fortunes also live in Ganxitou, isn't it more convenient to ask for safety?

It's only been one month since entering the palace, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have conflicts?
Shu Shu couldn't help gossiping, but she also knew that it was not good to talk about it outside.

"Where is Mrs. Zhang?"

"The back hall of Changchun Palace..."

Shu Shu couldn't help but be speechless.

No wonder the two of them are already concubines, yet they have no sense of existence, and they live in the apse.

Because both Qixiang Palace and Changchun Palace have other main concubines. Among them, the concubine Duan was still the third concubine at that time, ahead of the three concubines Rong, Hui, and Yi, and the concubine Xi was the last of the seven concubines, which was also the same period as the concubines.

Although these two concubine lords are not favored at the moment, but after all, their qualifications are here, and the position of first palace lord is secure.

The concubines who came up later, even if they had sons and pets, they could not shake their status as masters.

After returning to the head office, Shu Shu asked Xiao Chun to pass Sun Jin on, and first asked about the food delivery: "How is the breakfast meal? Is the food provided enough? The master said, do you want to increase or decrease the dinner meal?"

"Master is doing well. He only had half a bowl of mung bean porridge and ate four meat buns... Let Master Ten make rounds for the rest... But what Master meant was that Master Ten ate more than usual, lest he would feel uncomfortable in his stomach. He also reprimanded me a few words, saying that the master will make arrangements for the dinner. On the contrary, Master Shi said that if it is convenient, we can add a yellow vegetable stall in the evening, and I didn’t eat that for some days..."

Shu Shu wrote it down, only to find it both funny and sad.

Tanhuangcai is an egg pancake, but because there is no egg in the prince's recipe, it has become a golden dish.

"When I send someone to the Imperial Dining Room to collect the order, I will add some money, plus [-] eggs for preparation... also send a message to the kitchen, and use this amount as a daily reserve. If there is a shortage, just add it... and it is convenient Storing ingredients for soaking hair, which is not in my share, and the imperial dining room is well-off, and I also took money, looking at adding some of the various colors, making the dining room more affluent, and saving money. Grandpa has no appetite for dinner..."

Sun Jin listened carefully and nodded in response.

Shu Shu took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and then asked unhurriedly: "Today, I went to Ningshou Palace with my mother to pay my respects. Seeing that Ba Fujin followed the concubine Hui... Isn't he supposed to be with the concubine Wei? You often Running outside, do you know why?"

"If the master asks about it, the slave has to go out and inquire about it... Ask this, but I just know... It's not something I heard from outside, it was the eighth master who came over last month, had a drink with the master, and talked a little bit, the slave just happened to Following He Yuzhu to serve in front of me, I heard a few words..."

Sun Jin did not dare to sell the lawsuit, and said happily: "Like our master, there are also two court ladies in the backyard of the eighth master. They were arranged by the Empress of Yanxi Palace in the [-]th year from the beautiful women of the House of Internal Affairs... One of them is Wang Gege. The in-laws of Mrs. Wei's natal family, for this reason, Mrs. Wei has rewarded Wang Gege twice in the past two years... She was also allowed to go to Qixiang Palace to pay her respects... Eight blessings were married, and she refused to be offered tea by the two Geges, Mrs. Wei After mentioning a few words in private, Bafujin became annoyed... When he found out that Wang Gege was related to Wei Niang's family, he even misunderstood that it was arranged by Wei Niangniang, and also suspected that Wei Wei Niang wanted to promote Wang Gege...Ba Ye was also embarrassed , wanted to mediate, but Bafujin was stubborn, so he was deadlocked like this..."

After hearing this, Shu Shu could only admire it in her heart.

This is the real noble girl of the Eight Banners, strong enough, dare to be strong!

Regardless of whether Wang Gege was selected by Concubine Wei or not, she was the husband's birth mother after all, and she was the concubine, so she dared to ignore it.

This leaves no room for...

Sure enough, the blisters on the feet are all gone by themselves, and the character determines the fate.

Shu Shu's mood faded for a while, so he waved his hand to send Sun Jin down, and then asked someone to pass on Li Yin.

"Your master has lived in the second residence for over ten years, and has never set up a warehouse?"

Shu Shu asked.

Yesterday I forgot to ask Brother Nine about the warehouse. I just thought about the dozen or so boxes in the study in the front yard, so I felt a little thin.

"Returning to the master, it was set up earlier, and it was in the east wing of the main courtyard... In March, the courtyard was cleaned up, and then it was freed, and the boxes were moved to the study in the front yard..."

Li Yin replied respectfully.

Shu Shu couldn't help frowning: "Who cleaned up the warehouse? Just those things? Or are things from childhood stored in Yikun Palace?"

"Madam Liu kept the keys to the storehouse, and it was Madam Liu who brought someone to clean it up... Some gifts from the gods have not been moved, and the sealed boxes have been moved to the front... Daily clothes and materials, after telling the master, they will be rewarded during the Dragon Boat Festival Going down... there are two boxes of gadgets, which the master used to play with when he was a child. In April, the elder brother of the fifth master's family celebrated his birthday, so he sent them there as a birthday present..."

Shu Shu's expression remained unchanged, and he said with a suppressed anger: "Who will give the gift? Master Jiu promised to give it all?"

"It was the slave and Sun Jin who went there...Master, I have never paid much attention to these favors and ceremonies, and most of them were arranged by Nanny Liu..."

Shu Shu didn't continue to ask, and waited until Li Yin went down, and then said to Xiaochun: "What's the matter? Even if you are a real uncle, with a serious sister-in-law, it's not good to be a big lala and praise a concubine nephew..."

That is to say, Wu Fujin is generous, and he would have held grudges against someone else.

There are also two boxes of toys, from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, exclusive to the prince, can it be worse?

Isn't this the right thing to pass on?
