Chapter 1939 Five Volumes 237 Always Keep One ([-] Words Complete)

After all, Wu Niu was still an unmarried girl from Yunying, so she was so ashamed that she didn't know what to do.

He rejected it a few times, but how could Yongxin let go.He grabbed it even harder.

Although he is only four years old, he is a prince after all. After going to school at the age of five, he has to practice drawing a bamboo bow, so he has already started to practice his hand strength at this moment.Therefore, Wu Niu couldn't break free for a while when she played wildly.

Besides, Wu Niu is unwilling, but she is still a slave; although Yongzheng is young, she is the eldest son of the empress after all, how dare Wu Niu struggle?In addition, in this summer, they are all wearing thin gauze clothes, and the outer part of the robe is not worthy of a waistcoat, so he always gets his hands after just dodging twice...

After such a toss, there was some commotion between the old and the young.The courtyard was full of noise again, and Wu Niu was in a hurry and had no time to guard against it, so all the rustling and rustling came out.

The queen has always looked at the eldest son of Yongzheng like an eyeball, Dege followed out to find someone, and then followed the movement to the side hall... After Dege pushed the door open, it was already Yongzheng. He tore open Wu Niu's clothes horizontally, and was grabbing Wu Niu's pair of nephrite jade and Wen Xiang, and put them in his mouth.

Dege was shocked, and turned around and reported it to Nalashi.

Nalashi was startled, and rushed over in person, seeing that Wu Niu was blushing, raised her hand and gave Wu Niu a big mouth.

"...How old is my Yongzheng, do you dare to rest in such a heart?! If you stay in the palace for a long time, and when my Yongzheng is a few years older, you may not know what kind of pickle you will do. Here comes the trouble!"

Yong Xin has a special status, being the eldest son who lives in the world.According to the emperor's old practice of setting up a heir, now almost all the former harem, internal officials and foreign vassals have recognized Yongzheng as the first heir.

Therefore, it is quite normal for someone to want to take advantage of Yongzheng's young age to attack the prince.

Not to mention far away, the story of the Ke family who was a pacifier in the Ming Dynasty is still vividly before my eyes.Therefore, some people in this dynasty followed the example of the Ke family and wanted to seduce Yongzheng since childhood, which is also a matter of course!

Therefore, Nalashi no longer cared that Wu Niu was placed by Wanxi's side by herself, so she offered to ask Wu Niu to leave the palace.
.
After listening to Wu Niu's narration, Wanxi was also stunned for a while.Then he lowered his head and held back a smile.

She is also going to be the mother-in-law, and now she can vaguely guess the clue.She knew more or less about Erniang's wrist.

She calmed down, and then said slowly, "...At any rate, I'm about to give birth, and the empress can sell me a thin noodle, so that I won't get angry because of a woman. I will ask the empress for you For love, I beg the empress to see that the prince is still young, this matter should not be spread to the outside world, so I will spare you this crime."

"Go back and clean up. I'll inform the Ministry of Internal Affairs and tell you that you, like Yu Ye, left the palace when you were old. Ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to reward you with silver taels and items, and then give them all. Tell you to go along with it." Just go home smoothly."

Wu Niu raised her head eagerly, staring at Wan Xi, "Jiu'er, you won't save me?"

Wan Xi frowned, "I will try my best to preserve your reputation, why don't I ask you to save me?"

"But this is not what I want!" Wu Niu's eyes overflowed with disappointment and resentment, "I have made it clear to you, since I have returned to the palace, I never want to go out again in my life! Jiu'er, if you really want to save me Me, then try to keep me, don't drive me out!"

Wanxi's heart went completely cold.

Wanxi raised her eyes to look out the window at the setting sun that finally sank under the pavilions of the Old Summer Palace, watching the night rising from the bottom of the back lake, engulfing the world little by little.

"I know that there is a folk rule that a dowry girl is naturally a housemate. Since you grew up with me, and you are in my palace, your status is similar to that of my dowry girl. If I want to keep you forever, what will I do?" If I don't delay you, it seems that I should introduce you to the emperor."

"Besides, I'm pregnant with a child at this moment, so I can't accept the favor. There have been many lords in the harem since ancient times. At such a time, they recommend the maids around them to the emperor, and occupy them for a few months. The spoiled wrist..."

"Unfortunately, Wu Niu, I won't do this. I only care about the emperor's own wishes whether the emperor favors me or not. I have no interest in recommending a maid of mine to the emperor. So you want to continue to stay in my palace. Going on, I hope that I will eventually introduce you to the emperor—with all due respect, if you wait for many years, you will only be wasting your time."

"It's better to go out of the palace and find a good man to marry in a serious manner. You used to be unable to hold your head up in front of outsiders because you didn't know why you were out of the palace; then this time, I will naturally ask you to go out of the palace in a dignified manner. Then no one will dare to look down on you.”

"I believe that based on your qualifications, it is not impossible to find an official under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and you will be a decent Fujin or a side Fujin when you enter the door."
.
Wu Niu raised her eyes and looked at Wanxi steadily for a long, long time.

This will leave on the ground.

No matter how unwilling she is, Wanxi has already spoken so clearly.Her whole heart was like a candle that was extinguished by cold water, and there was no flame left.

"Okay, then I'll go back and put things back."

That's all the words, what else to say?
.
The next day, Mrs. Yang came into the garden again to accompany Wanxi, and Wanxi was able to ask about Wu Niu.

Yang said with a smile, "...Your Majesty, it's better not to listen. After all, the tricks in the harem are unavoidably dirty. It's important for your Majesty to take care of her body now."

As Yang said, she gently stroked Fu Wanxi's stomach, "What's more important, don't let my little grandson hear these things that shouldn't be heard."

Wanxi also laughed, and naturally everything at this moment was focused on the child in her belly.

It's just that Wanxi couldn't help being curious, so she leaned on Eniang's shoulder and said softly, "Daughter guesses, the twelfth elder brother Yongzheng will officially enter the study next year. At that time, both Da Da and the master will be strict. He will even personally ask the prince about his homework. The empress naturally dare not neglect, so this year she will personally set the rules for the twelfth elder brother."

"Since entering school, the childhood of the princes is over, so the first major event that the queen will do this year is to dismiss all the nannies and nurses around the twelve princes, and replace all the Jingqis. Become an eunuch and go."

"The queen's actions are naturally right, but it's pitiful for a child who is only four years old. I'm afraid that the child can only sleep with the milk of the nanny since childhood, and it is even more emotional. Reliance. The suddenness has been dismissed, and the child can't help but flicker, and I miss the nanny so much..."

Yang Shi smiled and pressed Wanxi's hand.

"When your elder brother was still at home, you were still young, and your mother could scare you. Later, when you were only five or six years old, your elder brother got an errand and went to Jiangnan. Just grow up."

"Even from your age, it's not easy for a mother to try to scare you."

"Now, ma'am, you are going to be a mother yourself, so you almost have to guess your mother's heart."

Yang blinked with a smile, "Of course the nannies are all selected under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, anyway, I have worked as a lot of women's servants under the Ministry of Internal Affairs over the years, so I also know those nannies. "

"I know quite a few stories about them. For example, what they like to eat—as a pacifier, whatever they like to eat, there is a smell in the milk. The prince has been used to that smell since he was a child, and he will definitely miss it when he smells it again. .”

"For my mother, I tried to make Wu Niu have that smell in the meals she ate these days. She has to go to the Queen's Palace every morning and evening to say hello, as long as she can meet the prince once, then this matter It will be done naturally.”

Wanxi raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly.

"Mother used to take advantage of the child's pure and innocent nature and her dependence on motherhood; but in the eyes of the queen and her subordinates, she might become Wu Niu with ulterior motives, and took the initiative to approach Yongzheng while she was young." Let's go to the situation of Yongzheng."

Mrs. Yang sighed softly, "No! After all, there were examples of Mrs. Hakka and Concubine Wan Gui in the Ming Dynasty; besides, even if there were no similar incidents in this dynasty, the royal family has always rewarded the nanny. They are all extraordinarily generous. Just like Lord Kangxi, Lord Yongzheng, and our emperor’s nannies, after the emperors ascend the throne, they will all be conferred the titles of ‘Holy Lady’.”

"The Cao family weaving in the south of the Yangtze River is because of Lord Kangxi's 'brethren'. Therefore, the story of Wu Niu is more likely to be regarded by the Queen as intentional. It's close to the first prince."

Wanxi nodded, "...Finally, the queen said it herself, the day when Wu Niu will leave the palace must be at hand."

Wu Niu has been her heart disease for many years, and she finally waited for the day when the queen pulled it out by herself.
.
In the side hall, Wu Niu clenched her teeth and put her things away angrily.

This second time to enter the palace, several years have passed in a blink of an eye, but I put my things back together, but it is just such a small burden that is enough.

After all, to be a woman in this palace, even food and clothing are provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but there are not many valuable rewards besides the small amount of money every year.

It is said that Concubine Ling has been favored for more than ten years, and everyone knows that Yongshou Palace is the closest to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but Concubine Ling's generosity to her servants is all about emotion, and it is nothing special when it is reflected in the money in hand.

The more Wu Niu thought about it, the more discouraged she became, and the more she thought about it, the more she wanted to shed tears.

If she really can't stay in the palace anymore, she will fight it out too, just leave the palace as soon as she leaves the palace!Just like what Lingfei said, at any rate, going out of the palace this time can wash away the ignorance of the past, and can seriously find a good man to marry.

It's just... She was willing to go out of the palace, but she left with such a small burden?In the past few years in the palace, she has not saved much for herself, so what will she use as a dowry in the future; even if she enters someone else's house, what will she rely on for the rest of her life?
After all, she is also the first-class woman in the palace, and she is more beautiful than Fujin of the fifth-rank official's family when she goes out, but she is so shabby...

What's more, she is not willing to go out of the palace at all!
Taking advantage of the darkness, she found an excuse and went to see Concubine Xin.
.
Fortunately, this is the Old Summer Palace, and it is not as strict as the gates of the palaces in the Forbidden City.The garden is also big, they just find a yard and close the door to talk, outsiders can't even see the shadow.

Wu Niu was aggrieved and told Concubine Xin about the grievances she had suffered at Nala's side.

Concubine Xin was surprised at first, and then stretched out her arms to hug Wu Niu, "Sister Wu has been wronged... I really don't understand what the Queen's Master thinks!"

Seeing this, Wu Niu hurriedly fell to her knees, "...in this palace, I know more and more that Master Ling can no longer be counted on. The only person this slave can rely on is you, Master Xin."

"The slave also begged Master Xin to save the slave for the sake of our master and slave getting along for many years."

Concubine Xin sighed softly, stood up herself, and reached out to help Wu Niu.

"Fifth sister, please start first, this matter also needs to be discussed in the long run."

Hearing Concubine Xin's tone, Wu Niu was so anxious that she burst into tears, "If Master Xin doesn't save this slave, then this slave really has no way of life... If Master Xin doesn't help this slave, this slave would rather kneel here and die. "

Concubine Xin looked shocked, and hurriedly supported her even harder.

"What is Fifth Sister talking about? Why don't I help Fifth Sister? Fifth Sister gets up and sits down first, and let me clear my thoughts. I think of an idea later, so I can help Fifth Sister, right?"

Wu Niu just wiped away her tears and stood up, but she still clenched her hands tightly on Concubine Xin, pleading repeatedly, "Master Xin...you must help this servant."
.
Concubine Xin comforted Wu Niu for a while, and finally told Wu Niu to stop her grief for a while.

Concubine Xin raised her eyes and quietly looked out the window.Thick shade forms a shadow, and the window screen is printed by candlelight.Shadowy and jagged, like someone stretching out dark claws in the night.

"...I remember that the fifth sister is the same age as the concubine Ling. Now that the concubine is 30 years old, the fifth sister is naturally also 30 years old, and she has already passed the age to leave the palace. Therefore, if the fifth sister wants to leave the palace, then Naturally, she left five years ago; but the fifth sister stayed in the palace until she was 30 years old, and kept a woman's best years in the palace, so she naturally didn't want to go out in the first place."

With tears in her eyes, Wu Niu nodded vigorously.

Concubine Xin held Wu Niu's hand, "It's only been three years since I entered the palace, how long has my friendship with Fifth Sister lasted? But as for Lingfei, how many years has she known Fifth Sister, and how many years have she been in love with her?" ? Why can’t Concubine Ling see what I can see?”

Wu Niu gritted her teeth and said bitterly, "How could she not see it? She was just pretending to be stupid in front of me!"

"Tsk tsk..." Concubine Xin shook her head, "Then I really don't understand what Concubine Ling is thinking."

"Let me be honest, if Fifth Sister is a woman in my palace, and I have twin bodies like Ling Fei at this time——then I have to thank Fifth Sister for having such a suitable person by my side! I will definitely recommend Fifth Sister to the Emperor!"

Wu Niu's tearful eyes suddenly fixed.

Concubine Xin lowered her head and pressed the corners of her lips with a handkerchief, and said quietly, "What kind of place is this? The harem. Who dares to expect the harem to be the only favorite? The women in the harem are pregnant with children, but they are happy. You have to worry about how to keep pets from the beginning."

"After all, she was conceived in October. For the sake of the child's safety, she is doomed to be difficult to be favored for ten months. Even if the emperor has the emperor's heir in mind, he will come to see him every few days, but it's just a glance... Finally, at night, They will still flip other people’s brands.”

"That's why, from the day a woman in the harem conceives a child, in terms of her body, she is no different from falling out of favor. She has to conceive in October and give birth to a child, and then she will stay for an extra half a year. Only then will it be possible to hang up the green card again. Adding up the inside and outside, it will be a year and a half."

"One and a half years, how many years does a woman have in her youth? If she can't be grateful for a year and a half like this, the emperor has already favored others in this year and a half. Who can't see the covetousness in the harem? Seeing that you have a body and can't accept your favor, so many people plotted to their bones and tried their best to divide your favor away."

Concubine Xin sighed as she spoke, her eyes, which were once lively like deer, were filled with sadness at this moment.

Wu Niu immediately understood that what Concubine Xin was talking about was probably the story before and after Concubine Xin gave birth to the sixth princess.

Seeing the sympathy in Wu Niu's eyes, Concubine Xin sighed and said, "... At that moment, I only hated that I didn't have anyone as available as Fifth Sister around me! Fifth Sister saw it too, although Le Rong and Le Yi are diligent , but they are all honest and dull; besides, I live in the Queen's Palace, even if I have this heart, I have to worry about the Queen's unwillingness."

"Actually, at this time, if you have a capable and united woman by your side, what's wrong with taking the opportunity to recommend it to the emperor? After all, the emperor must choose a beautiful woman every three years, so there must be a new favorite. Instead of entering the palace The newcomer still has to taste it slowly, so why call this new favorite a woman cultivated under his hands?"

"Besides, Lingfei has forgotten, what year is this year? This year is the year when the women of the Eight Banners are selected! The emperor has already selected a newcomer, and Gege from Niu Hulu's family is waiting to enter the palace. She is Niu Hulu The family is the empress dowager's own family, once she enters the palace, the emperor will give the empress dowager face, and he will definitely favor her."

"At a time like this, there are already these people in the harem staring at them, and the newcomers outside may formally enter the palace at any time to share their favor... If a woman who is pregnant with a child is smarter, why not quickly find someone from her side? If someone recommends it to the emperor, hurry up and hold the emperor's heart first?"

Concubine Xin sighed and looked at Wu Niu carefully.

"What's more, it's a beauty like Fifth Sister. Although she is 30 years old now, she is ten years older than me, but Fifth Sister doesn't look old at all, but she is more mature. How could the emperor not like such a wonderful person? Woolen cloth?"
.
Concubine Xin's words touched Wu Niu's heart every word.

It's just these words, but the more I listen to them, the more uncomfortable and unfair Wu Niu becomes.

"...Who says it's not? After all, I've been in love with her since I was a child. If she recommends me, after I'm favored, why don't I continue to be with her in the future?"

"Master Xin, look, what kind of people are around her now? Concubine Wan is an old man in Qiandi, but she is also the only one who is still on the throne and has no children; Concubine Qing is just a Han girl from the south of the Yangtze River. After all these years in the palace, the emperor has never even given her family a flag."

"As for Concubine Ying, although her family background is higher, isn't it true that she hasn't moved much these years?"

"She always has such unfavorable people by her side. If there is something troublesome on the emperor's side, can she count on these people who have been out of favor for many years to secure her favor?"

The more Wu Niu talked, the more annoyed she became.

"But now that I've said this, I seem to understand a little better. Maybe she just accepts those who have been out of favor for many years to be sisters, because none of them can threaten her!"

"But I'm different. She's afraid that I'll compete with her for favor, and she's even more afraid that I'll overtake her after I win the favor. That's why she pretends to be ignorant, suppresses me deliberately, and wastes the best years of my youth. Now And wish I could be kicked out of the palace early!"
.
Concubine Xin stared silently at Wu Niu.

After a long while, I said, "...Although I have always respected Concubine Ling, even I have to admit that at this moment, if it wasn't for the reason that Fifth Sister guessed by herself, I really couldn't understand what Ling Concubine has done to Fifth Sister these years. Why go."

Concubine Xin shook Wu Niu's hand again.

"As for me, although I have always respected Concubine Ling, it was because she helped me when I was in the most difficult time after the fire. I regard her as a lifesaver—but I really don't think she is so good. beautiful."

"She is of the Han surname, but she is tall and elegant, but she can hardly be called a peerless beauty. On the contrary, Fifth Sister, you are born with a natural beauty, you should be the head of the inner court, and you are several times more beautiful than her."

"Comparing my heart to my heart, if it's my fifth sister who grew up with me and is now in my palace, I will inevitably become cautious. I just want to suppress my sister, just want to make my sister happy. Otherwise, how can I What to do? Don’t you want to tell Fifth Sister to disappear?”

Wu Niu blushed and couldn't help smiling.

Concubine Xin took a deep breath, "Fifth Sister naturally understands the current situation better than I do. If Fifth Sister wants to stay in the palace, to be honest, the empress and master will come second. As long as Fifth Sister can Passing the hurdle of Concubine Ling, the Emperor felt that Fifth Sister should be kept for Concubine Ling, and then Fifth Sister would naturally be able to stay."
.
Wu Niu stared at Concubine Xin, and asked pleasantly after a long while, "Master Xin actually thought of a way to help the servant?"

Concubine Xin breathed a sigh of relief, "God helped Fifth Sister, so that Fifth Sister's catastrophe happened at this critical moment. In my opinion, Fifth Sister still has hope to stay!"

"Master Xin, tell me!" Wu Niu hurriedly said.

Concubine Xin's head was half down, her eyes were hidden under the eyelids, and she turned around quietly.

"...Based on the month when the moon-guarding grandma is assigned to the palace, the concubine Ling's delivery date should be in July. Now it's June, and this is the time when concubine Ling's palace is most in short supply of manpower."

Wu Niu nodded.

Concubine Xin said with a smile, "But Yuye will be leaving the palace in August. I heard from the Ministry of Internal Affairs that this date has already been fixed and cannot be changed."

Concubine Xin raised her eyes faintly, "Yuye is gone, if Yurui can't keep her for a while... Fifth Sister said, how can there be no one around Concubine Ling?"

　See you tomorrow~~ Every day, you can see the records of everyone voting monthly votes and rewards for a certain Su.Although there is no need to copy them one by one to thank them like before, the gratitude in Su's heart is the same.Bow to everyone~
