Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2281 Six Volumes 336 Where Does Joy Come From? ([-] words completed)

Because Wanxi was pregnant and it rained again that night, she simply slacked off and didn't wake up until the next day at high altitude.

She lifted the curtains and called people outside.

When the door opened, it was Yu Rui who walked in.

Wanxi was startled, "...you're back?"

After all, it was Yongqi's child who had just landed yesterday. Wanxi thought that Yurui would stay in the palace at least last night, so even if she came back to the garden today, she would only arrive in the afternoon; Came back in the morning.

Wanxi didn't know if she was being careless, but she felt that after she asked this question, Yurui's face was a little embarrassed, and her eyes were averted.

But Yurui is Yurui after all, and she still goes forward to hang up the curtain for Wanxi with swift hands and feet, and waits for Wanxi to get up.

"...The slave is in the palace, so I can't worry about the master's garden. Therefore, Yingyuan's child over there landed safely, and the slave hastened to come back."

Yu Rui's words were reasonable, so Wanxi nodded, put on her clothes slowly, and asked unhurriedly, "Then when did you come back? Could it be that you came back last night?"

If he didn't come back late at night, according to Yurui's rules, he must come to her first to say hello.

Yurui lowered her head halfway, but still avoided her eyes.

"……Um."
.
Yu Rui tidied up the bedding, then turned around and went to open the cupboard to get the big clothes for Wanxi.

Sitting on the edge of the Kang, Wanxi couldn't help staring at Yurui's back.

Yurui... what is she dodging?
In other words, what is Yurui hiding from her?
Wanxi lowered her head and thought about it, could it be that Yongqi's elder brother has something wrong?
Wanxi then asked softly, "...Little Elder Brother and your sister Yingyuan Gege, are mother and child okay?"

Only then did Yurui turn her head around, and tried her best to meet Wanxi's eyes with a smile on her face, "Master, please ask. The little elder brother and Yingyuan are both well. Yingyuan saw the gift sent by the master yesterday, and pulled the slave Said to let the slave come back to the garden, and kowtow to the master in her place to thank the master."

Wanxi laughed, "That's too much to say. She gave birth to the fifth elder brother's child and your sister. Although I haven't met her a few times, my heart is full of kisses." Honey."

Yu Rui tried her best to smile, but she still knelt down in front of Wan Xi in a serious manner and saluted.

Wanxi has a big belly now, so she can't bend down to pull Yu Rui up, so she just smiled helplessly, "Look at you, what are you doing here? I told you that you don't need Yingyuan to salute, let alone you salute her. Thank you for being so serious, kowtow."

"Get up quickly, your hair is messed up, and your forehead is also red; the etiquette of the women under our flag, how can you use a serious kowtow when you are on the flag head? You 'fudaertou' (stroking the temples, instead of kowtow) is gone."

But Yurui finished kowtowing all the heads in a serious manner, and then stood up and stood sideways, "...Master, let the slave kowtow. The slave has kowtowed all the heads, and I feel more energetic."

Wanxi couldn't help raising her eyebrows, she fixed her eyes on Yurui.

"...Yu Rui, what happened to you in the palace? No matter what it is, you should tell me."

"I know you're concerned about my stomach. But it's okay, don't worry."

But Yurui shook her head and smiled vigorously, "It's okay. The slave is just... I haven't been with the master for a few days, and I miss the master a little."

As Yu Rui said, she raised her hand and hurriedly brushed back the strands of hair that had fallen from the kowtow, "I'm in a mess right now, and it's inconvenient to serve in front of my master. I'll take my leave first, and I'll ask Yu Chan to come in and serve me."

Wanxi also nodded, "Go."
.
Yurui retreated, and Yuchan and Yuying came in, waiting for Wanxi to move to the dowry to comb her hair.

According to Wanxi's own intention, if she just lives in her own island and the emperor doesn't come, she won't be on the flag at all, and she can simply braid her hair and put it on top of her head.

But Yuchan laughed, "Master, I don't need to bother to go to the queen's master to say hello, but I have to be on guard against the emperor coming. Master can't bear this empty braid, so I went to pick him up."

Yuying also laughed, "That's right. The emperor went back to Huanqiu to perform the big ceremony, and he went to the Nanyuan Zhai Palace to fast for three days. He hasn't been in the garden for several days. Now that he is back, it must be I came here as soon as I finished my work this afternoon."

Wanxi just raised her eyebrows, "...the emperor is back?"

Yuying smiled and said, "I'm back. This servant opened the gate of the palace this morning and went to the dining room to ask for breakfast. I saw the eunuchs served by Jiuzhou Qingyan. They also went to ask for the meal list, and they wanted to serve the emperor. It's breakfast."

"Which of the words the emperor promised to the master and our seventh princess fell through?"

Wanxi didn't speak, just moved her eyes slightly.

It was Yuchan who was more careful, and when she saw it, she smiled softly, "It is said that since the emperor promised us the Seventh Princess, then when he came back last night, he would definitely visit our island first. It's just that it rained yesterday. Well, the road is not easy to walk; in addition, the emperor went back to the palace from Huanqiu to visit the eldest son of the fifth elder brother, which delayed some time."

"After the emperor left the palace and came back to the garden, the emperor went to the Changchun Garden to pay his respects to the empress dowager... The emperor must have made the ceremony of praying for rain, and the fifth elder brother's little elder brother I have reported everything to the Empress Dowager, so this has been delayed for some more time."

"So, last night it was time to release the key, but the emperor has not come back yet; the emperor rushed back at night, because the master has also rested, and it is late, so the emperor did not come to disturb the master. Nice dream."

As Yuchan spoke, she gave Master Yuying a wink.

Yuying also hurriedly said, "My master is pregnant with twins, so a good sleep is naturally the most important thing. Even the emperor, naturally, I don't want to disturb you~"
.
What Yuchan and Yuying said was natural and reasonable, even Wanxi herself explained to Xiaoqi in this way last night, so Wanxi suppressed the inexplicable anxiety in her heart.

Still ask Yuchan and Yuying to give Bian Fang.It's just that there is no bracing, but the hair is fixed around the flat square on the left and right, and the simplest two hairs are combed.

According to Wanxi's own opinion, even if she is on the flag head, she only needs to pick a plain headband flower on the left and right, as long as she is not rude in front of the emperor.But Yuchan brought over a "Silver Plated-Everything Wishes Western Vase Flower Hairpin", "How about this hairpin, master?"

Wanxi couldn't help raising her eyebrows, "Why do you remember asking me to wear this?"

There are some stories about this hairpin: In the "Sanxi Hall", the emperor's own small world in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, many wall vases were used to decorate the walls.Because the emperor also liked to paint the patterns and techniques of Western porcelain vases such as enamel, so the wall vase also had the shape of Western porcelain vases.

At the same time, "Everything goes well" is reflected in the painting pattern as two persimmons and a wishful handle.Ruyi is one of the emperor's favorite things, and every throne in the palace is easy to put a handle; and Xiao Qi loves to eat persimmons...

Therefore, the emperor combined the elements of the Western vase, persimmon, and Ruyi to make such a "silver-plated-everything Ruyi Western vase flower hairpin", which was given to Wanxi on the day she was seven years old.

Such a combination of Chinese and Western hairpins is a deep affection for the emperor and Wanxi; but the special method of using porcelain bottles on the hairpin seems a bit nondescript in the eyes of others, so it is not common for Wanxi Wear it out.

Usually it's only on Xiaoqi's birthday, or to coax the emperor to be happy, to wear it privately.

"It's not a festival today, and it's not Xiaoqi's day, why bother to wear this?" Wanxi smiled helplessly, and glanced at Yuchan.

Yuchan bit her lips lightly, "...wasn't yesterday a good day for the emperor to pray for rain? The servant thought, since the beginning of spring, there has been no rain for several months. Yesterday, the emperor finally got his wish. Then this day It is considered grand. It is appropriate for the master to wear this hairpin to welcome the emperor today."

Wanxi raised her eyebrows, then smiled too, and nodded with a smile, "I lost to your sharp mouth...you are right, then I will wear this today."
.
After Wanxi finished dressing, she sat on the northern kang and had her breakfast.

The hour is still there, the emperor must be busy at this moment, even if he comes here, it will not be until after noon.

Liu Zhu'er then came in to reply, and Wanxi listened while eating.

Liu Zhu'er smiled and said, "The emperor's decree to the Northwest was passed down from Qinzheng Palace today. The decree said that because the six cities of Hetian belonged to the Hojis family, the emperor still sealed Hojis. For the 'Achimbak' who manages the six cities of Khotan."

Wanxi also nodded, "The son of Hodges came all the way from the northwest to the capital to meet the emperor, which shows that this family is very sincere in their attachment."

After Wanxi finished speaking, she smiled again, "The emperor cares about Hetian...not to mention the strategic significance, but the beautiful jade produced by Hetian is the emperor's treasure."

Liu Zhu'er also smiled, and continued to play: "The master is most concerned about E Dui, who made great contributions in the Battle of Kuqa, and the emperor named him the 'Achim Burke' who managed Aksu. The slave knows that the master appreciates E Dui very much. Madame Reimu."

Wanxi was taken aback, "Isn't Eyue the Achim Burke of Kuqa? Why did the emperor seal Achim Burke of Aksu? Who did the emperor hand over to Kuqa City?"

E Dui's family paid the price of three young sons and Reyimu's humiliation in Kuqa City, in exchange for the imperial court to restore Kuqa City. How could the emperor hand over Kuqa City to others?

Liu Zhu'er smiled and said, "My master doesn't know that E Duiboke and Reyimu couple not only made contributions in Kuqa, but also made contributions in Aksu!"

Wanxi lowered her eyes and thought carefully, "... I remembered, Yurui said that Reimu managed to escape from Kuqa City and went to Aksu."

Liu Zhu'er nodded, "Exactly. At that time, Hotan and Aksu had few soldiers in the siege of Heishuiying. Edui recruited Hetian soldiers to help defend the city; Reyimu also recruited hundreds of reinforcements from his subordinates to help her husband defend the city. Therefore, Eduai The contribution of the husband and wife is no longer limited to the city of Kuqa."

"The emperor granted Edui the title of Achim Burke of Aksu, and the city of Kuqa was not handed over to outsiders, but to Esman, the eldest son of Edui, as Burke. The emperor rewarded Burkes in all cities. Third grade Dingdai and peacock feathers."

Wanxi breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and smiled, "So it's like this... It's because the emperor is thoughtful, if this is to give Eduai a special favor, it's not in vain for Mrs. Reyimu's sacrifice."

Liu Zhu'er nodded with a smile, "I know that the master has been thinking about Mrs. Reimu all the time. Today, I sent another good letter. The emperor ordered Huojisi, E to wait for Burke, and come to Beijing to see you! E to Bo Since Ke is here, Mrs. Reimu is afraid that she will come with her, and the master may see her..."

Wanxi was even more joyful for a while, "That's great!"
.
After Liu Zhu'er finished replying, she also withdrew.

Yurui hasn't come back yet, and Yuchan is the only one waiting in the hall.

Wanxi had a good appetite this morning, because she heard the good news from Northwest China, she drank half a bowl of black rice porridge.Wanxi put down the bowl and chopsticks, and raised her eyes to look at Yuchan.

When I combed my hair before, I already wanted to ask, but I held back.There was no one else in the hall at this moment, so Wanxi lowered her eyes and asked softly, "Yuchan, let me ask you, when did Yurui come back?"

Yuchan bit her lip carefully, "... After all, we can only come back when the door opens on our island in the morning. When I see Aunt Yurui, that's when I get up to open the door."

Wanxi lowered her eyes, "Since she arrived when the door opened, she must have come back last night."

Wanxi suppressed a word in her heart and didn't ask: Since Yurui returned to the garden last night, where does she live?
.
After breakfast was over, people from Concubine Yu's palace came to greet Wanxi and salute her.The person who came was Sandan, the woman in charge of Concubine Yu, who came in and said she wanted to thank Wanxi on behalf of Concubine Yu, thanking Wanxi for sending Yurui over to help, now that the little elder brother landed safely, Concubine Yu herself is temporarily Accompanying him in the palace, he couldn't come to thank him in person, so he sent Sandan back.

Wanxi nodded with a smile, "Sister Yu is still in the palace, but she asked you to come back and tell me these things, how embarrassing it is for me."

Wanxi raised her eyes to look at Sandan, "... I thank you for taking Yurui in the palace last night, and I thank you too."

Since Sandan had already returned to the garden at this time, he should have come back with Yu Rui.If Yurui can't come back to the island, it is also possible to temporarily stay with Sandan in the "Xingshuyuan" on the side of Concubine Yu.

Sandan's face was a little embarrassed, "I really don't dare to accept it..."

Wanxi raised her eyebrows, but suppressed the doubts in her heart.

Sandan was also a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly resigned.When I had to go out, Yu Rui happened to be walking towards me.

The three pills came forward and bowed their knees in salute, "... congratulations to Miss Yurui."

Yu Rui was startled, looking at Sandan, her face was pale instead of happy.

Although it was far away, what Wanxi saw was a transparent tiled glass window, so she still saw this scene.

Wanxi couldn't help frowning.

Sandan is the woman under the concubine Yu's position, and Yu Rui is the woman under her position. They are both first-class women under the concubine's position. Go for the rules of etiquette?
.
At noon, the emperor was still busy at the Qinzheng Hall, and the Qinzheng Hall hadn't delivered the letter yet.Wanxi also leaned on the kang, and closed her eyes lazily.

Originally, he wanted to take a break, but when he closed his eyes, he couldn't fall asleep.The scene of Sandan curtsying to Yurui just now kept shaking in front of his eyes.

At noon in this summer, the whole yard was quiet, even the flowers and trees seemed to be asleep.The sound of cicadas has already rolled in all directions like sea waves.

But even so, someone whispered in the corridor outside the window, but it still came to the ears.

It sounds like someone is here to see you.

Wanxi reached out and pressed her forehead, opened her eyes, and sat up.

"What's the matter?" Wanxi asked.

The other door opened slightly, and Yuchan came in and replied, "It's the woman under E Chang who came to greet the master. Just now, the slave thought that the master was going to take a rest, and was about to give it back."

Wanxi nodded, "Call her in."
.
The one who came in was Luoxia, a woman under Echang's position.

Luoxia brought in a tray with red lacquer and melon patterns, and covered it with red silk.It looks like a gift.

Luoxia please squat down and reply, "This is a gift from Wu Fujin to the masters of the palace. Wu Fujin is on behalf of the fifth elder brother, thank you all the masters for your reward."

"It's just that Wu Fujin can't leave the palace and can't come to the garden for the time being, so I can only entrust it to my master to bring it back. My master will personally go to Changchun Garden to thank the empress dowager Now that the ceremony is over, the slave will be on the master's side. Our master also invites the master to be Haihan."

Wanxi also nodded and told Yuchan to take it.

"Why is your master so polite? She came back to the garden for Wu Fujin to give gifts, and every family had to deliver them. But how can she make it by herself? Besides, the Empress Dowager's Changchun Garden always needs her to personally I'll take a walk. Naturally, I don't care about that here, you just need to make your master feel at ease."

Wanxi glanced at the thank you gift, and also sighed softly.

"It's hard for Wu Fujin to help her, she's still being so considerate at this moment."
.
The Jueluo family in Xilin, Wufu Jin Dynasty, because it is the granddaughter of Ertai, and the descendants use the first letter of the elder's name as the family name, so it can also be abbreviated as the "E family" like the Chinese surname.

Although the newly born little elder brother was not born to the E family, she is the concubine Fujin and the child's aunt; One has to be considerate in terms of etiquette, and she has to take care of these things after all.

They are all women, watching other people give birth to their husband's eldest son, she has to force herself to smile and respect etiquette... Naturally, Wanxi can understand such a state of mind.

Luoxia smiled and said, "Wu Fujin said that in addition to thanking the master for his kindness, he also prepared a gift for Miss Yurui."

Wanxi nodded, "Why is Wu Fujin so polite? Yurui is also Yingyuan Gege's older sister, she should have taken care of her in the past."

As Wanxi spoke, she asked Yuchan to ask Yurui to come in.

Wanxi should always accept the gift from Prince Fujin face to face.

Yu Rui came in and accepted the thank you gift with a slightly embarrassed face.

Luoxia smiled all over her face, and like Sandan, she bowed her knees to Yurui, "... Congratulations to the girl. I still call you 'girl' at this moment, and the slave doesn't know if it's over the line. I don't think it's a girl. The day will enter the seal, and then he will be the master."
.
Wanxi was originally holding a teacup, which contained weak tea made from flower petals and bamboo leaves.As soon as Luoxia heard this, the lid of the teacup in Wanxi's hand bumped into the teacup with a jingle.

Yurui's complexion changed drastically, she turned around and knelt down in front of Wanxi.

"Master! Master, listen to what the slave said..."

Wanxi took a deep breath, and tried her best to put the teacup back on the table firmly.

She didn't look at Yurui, but only raised her eyes to look at Luoxia, "Go back and thank your master for me, and trouble your master to send a word to Wu Fujin, thank you."

Luoxia saw that the atmosphere was not right, so she also hurriedly left.
.
Luoxia left, Yuchan stood in the hall, shaking hands, not knowing what to do.

Wanxi picked up the teacup again, lowering her eyes lightly.

"Yuchan, you should go out too. I have a few words to talk to Yurui alone."

"You stand guard at the door, and no one is allowed to come in."

Yuchan glanced at Yurui in a panic, then hurriedly retreated and closed the palace door.

Wanxi took two sips of tea slowly, then held the teacup steadily, raised her eyes to look at Yurui.

"...You were the 'Jiuzhou Qingyan' who stayed with the emperor last night, didn't you?"
.
Outside, Yuchan came out of the palace gate to feel worried, so she asked Yuying and Cricket to guard the palace gate, and she chased Luoxia in three steps at a time.

"Sister, please stop. My younger sister is stupid, I didn't understand what my elder sister said just now... The rules that my elder sister must abide by, at least I should give my younger sister a hint, so as to save my younger sister from being in the same palace with Aunt Yurui, but still follow the rules." The way we used to get along, this offends."

Luoxia also nodded with a smile, "Miss is right to be so cautious! You and Miss Yurui live in the same palace, so you are naturally like sisters on weekdays, and you are not restrained in words and deeds. But from now on, girl You can no longer be so indifferent with Miss Yurui, that would break the rules."

Yuying's heart skipped a beat.

Luoxia blinked, "We are all the ones who serve the master in the palace, you should know what I said - last night, Miss Yurui was already serving her bed. The emperor must It will take a few days to give an explanation."

Yuying swayed, only to feel that the sun above her head was shining brightly, which made people feel a little dizzy under their feet.

"Elder sister really? Aunt Yurui--she really accepted the favor? But how could it be, she has been in the palace these days to accompany Fifth Elder Brother's Gege; she came back to the garden this morning, how could she accept the favor?"

Luoxia smiled, "Didn't the emperor go to the palace to see the little elder brother of the emperor's grandson last night? The emperor was in a hurry to return to the garden at night and did not stay in the palace."

"At that time, Miss Yurui was also in the fifth elder brother's house, right next to Yingyuan Gege. The emperor went, so I saw him naturally. The emperor asked if Miss Yurui would also come back to the garden with the emperor. "

"What the emperor means is that the concubine and master can't live without Miss Yurui for a day. Now that Yingyuan Gege's mother and child are safe, Miss Yurui can go back to the garden as soon as possible."

Yu Chan also nodded.

"It just so happens that I have to come back to the garden because I want to bring a thank you gift, and the third pill under Concubine Yu's seat is also coming back to fetch things for Concubine Yu, so it happens that the three of us are companions. The emperor was happy yesterday, this time He is also very easy-going, just ask the three of us to go with Shengjia."

Luoxia coughed lightly when she said this.

"There was no warning at first, but I didn't expect Miss Yurui to get into the emperor's carriage with an excuse on the way. Then, uh..." Luo Xia was a little embarrassed to continue.
