Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2310 Seven Volumes 10 Crossing the Cherry Blossom Bridge ([-] words completed)

There are "three rituals" for the princess of the Qing Dynasty: the initial appointment ceremony, the wedding ceremony, and the return ceremony.

Between the initial appointment ceremony and the wedding ceremony, it usually takes about a month to prepare; but the pure imperial concubine is seriously ill, and the initial appointment ceremony and the wedding ceremony of the four princesses have been advanced to March, and the wedding ceremony is the first The second time was advanced again.

For such hasty preparations, the emperor himself had to watch over them personally, so as not to make any mistakes due to lack of time.

The seventh day of March was the initial ceremony for the four princesses and Jia; since the ceremony was held in the Hall of Preserving Harmony in the Forbidden City, the wedding, which was only two days away, should have been held in the palace.The emperor should also stay in the palace to prepare for the etiquette, so there is no need to go from the palace to the garden.

But on the evening of the seventh day of March, before the banquet in the palace was over, a letter from the garden was received.

On the day of the first appointment ceremony of Princess Lijiang, the emperor will host a banquet in honor of his family members.Because the fourth son-in-law is Fu Heng's eldest son, and Fu's family is originally the natal family of Empress Xiaoxian, the emperor will naturally be more grand.

Kuang Fuheng's generation has nine buddies, so there are already a lot of people; Fu Qing, Fu Wen and other elder brothers have passed away, but the nephews and nephews in those families are still quite prosperous, so this time the banquet has been busy until dark. no end.

But when the emperor received Wanxi's letter, he could no longer care about the men of the Fu family, and ordered Wei Zhu to prepare the horse immediately.

Even Fu Heng, the father-in-law, when he heard that it was the concubine Ling who was delivering the letter, he immediately got up, knelt down without hesitation and said loudly, "I respectfully send you to the emperor."

With Fu Heng taking the lead like this, the rest of the Fu family's men were a little unsure, and they all quickly followed Fu Heng and knelt down.A large group of men respectfully invited the emperor to drive.

The emperor nodded, patted Fu Heng on the shoulder, then turned around and walked away quickly.
.
When the emperor's footsteps hurried up the "natural picture", Wanxi rushed forward and threw herself into the emperor's arms, finally shedding tears.

Next to her, Yuqin has long since cried into tears, but Wanxi has been holding on.At this time, the emperor, empress, and empress dowager are all in the palace, and she is the only one who is carrying it in the garden; even the harp can cry, but she cannot.If she also cried like crazy, who else can preside over the affairs in this garden?
But when the emperor came back, she could finally relieve the burden on her shoulders and shed tears with peace of mind.

The emperor supported Wanxi, and comforted him softly, "Don't worry. The master is back, and there is a master for everything."

Yurui and Yuchan hurried forward to support Wanxi, and retreated to the side for a while.

When the emperor walked outside, Hu Shijie was already waiting outside the door with four imperial physicians and the leader in charge of the eunuchs.

The emperor sent them in and asked in a low voice.

The imperial doctor replied: "In the history of vaccination, the first sneeze after vaccination means that the pox has been successfully planted. On the first day of March, the fourteenth brother sneezed for the first time."

"Red pimples appeared on the third day, herpes formed from the pimples on the fifth day, turned into pustules on the eighth day, brown scabs formed on the [-]th day, and the scabs fell off after the [-]th day, leaving scars. This is the successful consecration... …The fourteenth elder brother had rashes on the third day and herpes on the fifth day, everything was normal.”

Several imperial physicians hesitated for a moment, raised their eyes and looked at the emperor quietly, "Today is the night of the seventh day, and it is the time when pustules appear. Everything was fine at first, but today, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse; My minister, The humble ministers are worried..."

"In short, the humble ministers will definitely try their best to serve the fourteenth elder brother with all their knowledge; but the humble ministers have to boldly tell the emperor that the fourteenth elder brother's little clothes must be prepared in advance."

"Prepare clothes" is an implicit expression, which means that it is time to prepare for the afterlife.

The emperor couldn't help narrowing his eyes, "You guys, what are you talking about?"

The four imperial physicians kowtowed to the ground, and there was a loud bang, "At this moment, the pox has reached the most critical pustule, and the medical skills of the humble ministers have been exhausted, and everything can only be looked up to the heavens. The humble ministers ,It is really……"

When the vaccination develops into pustules, it is the most critical moment for the virus to break out completely, and life and death are within three or two days.

"If there is something bad in front, why didn't you report it earlier, why didn't you say it at this time?" The emperor had blood pouring into his pupils, and stared at the four imperial physicians in the dim night, "It's my doctor!" If you are not in the garden for a few days, why can't you play immediately?"

The foreheads of several imperial doctors were already red, "Qi Zuo Sheng, the fourteenth elder brother was indeed not bad a few days ago, everything was done step by step; it was only because the pustules were coming out around seven or eight days ago, I am afraid Once the sickness peaks, the ministers can't predict it..."

The four imperial physicians in front of him are experts in the "Vaccination Department" and "Small Fangmai" handpicked by the emperor. If there is still room for redemption, the four of them will definitely not come to him and say such things... The emperor already knew it in his heart, but he couldn't accept it in his heart.

He stood up abruptly, and walked out with his long legs.

The four imperial physicians looked at each other, and Wei Zhu and Hu Shijie, who were waiting outside the door, also exchanged looks in a panic.

As soon as the emperor stepped over the threshold, several people rushed over from two directions together, each tightly hugging one of the emperor's legs.

"Your Majesty! Absolutely not..."

Even if the emperor didn't say a word, they all understood that the emperor was in such a hurry to go out, he was going to Wufutang!
The emperor's two legs were hugged tightly by six people respectively. He stared at the six people with blood-red eyes, but only said one word, "Get lost!"

But the six people still hugged tightly, and would rather die than let go.

The emperor raised his eyes, and still took a careful look at the partition door of the Nuan Pavilion, he didn't want the noise from outside to be too loud, which would alarm Jiu'er in the Nuan Pavilion.

He took a deep breath, tried his best to keep his voice low, and growled, "That's my son! I had acne when I was young, so what's the point of going into that room to see that child?"

The six people still hugged each other tightly, and advised them with tears in their eyes, "Acne is dangerous, and it is often beyond human capabilities. Don't talk about young children, so what about the rebel chieftain of Junggar, Amursana? Didn't he die of pox?"

"Your majesty was vaccinated with acne when he was a child, but after all, it has been so many years; no one can guarantee that people who have been vaccinated will be able to completely avoid acne, or whether the acne will recur..."

There are too many examples of success or failure due to vaccination, and many of them have had acne, because the reaction to the acne is not effective enough, so they still contract acne after vaccination.

The emperor couldn't hear it, so he raised his leg and wanted to kick a few people away.

At this moment, the door slammed softly.

The emperor's heart was shocked, he raised his eyes and looked over, and saw Jiu'er Pingting standing by the next door.

She was already thin, standing by the door like usual, she looked graceful and solitary; this time it made people feel that her figure was so thin that it made people feel distressed.

The emperor hurriedly took a deep breath, and tried his best to smile at Wanxi, "It's okay. My master is talking to them, you go and rest first."

Wanxi walked out.

She walked a little slowly, but her steps were firm.

She approached step by step, making her face clearer in the light step by step.

There were still tears on her face—but at this moment, she no longer shed tears.

She walked up to him, reached out her hand firmly, and grabbed his arm.

"...If the master has to go, then the servant must follow. As a human being, the servant is the most suitable person to go."

The emperor just stomped his feet, "Stupid words! How could you go!"

Wanxi lowered her eyes lightly, trying her best to control the tears that were about to rise again.

"Then don't go either..."

How could it be that he didn't feel sorry for the child, but it was smallpox!Anyone who has been in contact with it may be overwhelmed by illness and killed!He is the Son of Heaven, the country cannot live without a king, even if anyone can go, but he can't go anyway.

Wanxi tried her best to hold back the choking in her throat, "Since the vaccination is also a 'send to the saint', it is most likely a destiny, and manpower can no longer be done."

"If...my master went, so what can I do? No matter how proficient my master is in medical skills, but I have a specialization in the medical field, right now there are experts in the 'vaccination department' right in front of me. They are powerless , why do you need to...?"

These words, in fact, every word uttered is like wringing Wanxi's heart.

But no matter how difficult it is, she has to say these words at this moment - because only she can say such words at this moment.

She tried her best to finish these words, and her eyes were already darkened.She clenched the emperor's arm tightly and leaned her forehead gently on the emperor's shoulder.

"Grandpa...don't go. Little Lu'er must understand what you mean by master."

Wanxi still has a lot to say, but her body is already limp, and the darkness in front of her eyes finally converges into a large swath of dark sea water, which is icy cold and keeps rushing towards her, finally submerging her.

In the ear, only the emperor's exclamation could be heard from a distance, "...Jiu'er!"

Then she didn't know anything.
.
This night, until the daytime on the eighth day of March, Wanxi fainted and woke up, and when she opened her eyes, she asked how the little deer was doing.

On the eighth day of March, at Youshi ([-]:[-]pm to [-]:[-]pm), the imperial physician finally came to report—the fourteenth son of the emperor, Yonglu, passed away.

Wanxi sat on the kang, quietly listening to the reports of the imperial doctors.

She heard herself say from a distance: "Youshi, the ancient name is 'Rijin'. Also known as sunset and sundown, it is the time when chickens return to their nests. When it gets dark, Xiao Luer and he also go back together, right? But silly My child, Ernie is here, if you want to go home, you should come back to Ernie; why did you go wrong?"

She thought she didn't cry, because she didn't hear the heart-piercing cry coming from her throat; she just sat quietly, but the tears just kept falling silently from her eyes.

She didn't even know if she was crying like this; she didn't even know if a mother who lost her child should mourn in this way.

She didn't know anything, and she couldn't control herself anymore.

The emperor had already passed by Wufutang for the first time, and Yurui, Guiyunsampan and others all stopped her firmly and did not tell her to move.

There was no cry in her throat, but she was still able to speak, she said, "Yu Rui, don't just stop me, you go and stop Sister Lu... Tell her, don't go to see Xiaoluer. Xiaoluer When he was covered with pustules, Xiao Luer definitely didn't want his Aunt Qing to see him like this."

Although Yurui, Yuchan and others stopped Wanxi, why didn't they all cry so much that their heads were already red and their faces were swollen?

There was a man in Guiyunsan present, seeing that the women couldn't do this, he kowtowed to the ground, "I will return to command the master, no matter how sad the master is at this moment, he must not break his heart; command The master feels sorry for the fourteenth elder brother, but he can't hurt the fetal gas any more..."
.
Gui Yunsampan's voice was not loud, but in this mournful warm pavilion, it was like a small thunderclap.

Wanxi was stunned by the thunder, and raised her eyes to stare blankly at Gui Yunsampan.

"Xiaogui Imperial Physician, what did you... say?"

Gui Yunjie kowtowed on the ground, "Master Huiling, yes!"

Gui Yunjie raised his eyes, there were also water marks in his eyes, but he still smiled more.

"Master Ling fainted last night, and up to now, I have checked the pulse of Master Ling many times. Even before, there were still some pulses that I could not predict, but now I can confirm it--my minister congratulates Master Ling, congratulations to the emperor, The master has already had a happy pulse for nearly two months!"

Wanxi was shocked for a moment, she could only stare blankly at Guiyun Boat, but she was speechless.

Gui Yunsan also said with tears in relief, "A month ago, when I asked for the pulse of peace for the master, I vaguely noticed it; but at that time, the master was recovering and was busy, so the pulse was a little bit different. Chaos, so this humble minister dare not say for sure."

"This matter is so important, I am afraid that I said it too early, and I made a mistake, which would make the master happy, so I have been holding back and not saying it; from last night to today, I have checked the pulse many times in a row, but no matter what Dare to predict..."

Yurui and Yuchan looked at each other, but finally couldn't help it, they hugged each other and cried aloud.

The heavens are pitiful, the master has just lost his fourteenth elder brother, but the heavens have sent a new heir.

In this world, for a mother, the most painful thing is the loss of a child; then the best medicine in this world that can heal a mother's pain of losing a child is not to send another child at this moment?

Wanxi pressed her throat, and the hoarse voice came out, even she herself didn't know whether it was crying or laughing.

It's just that no matter how hard she can't tell the difference between sadness and joy, she now understands that Xiao Lu'er has left, no matter how sad she is at this moment, she must stop her tears.

The bloodline is continuous, the little deer is gone, and this child is here, this is God's will in the dark.She still has the opportunity to leave all her heart, all her love for Xiao Lu'er, all her apologies for the child she lost last year, to this new child at this time.

——This is also the best commemoration for Xiaoluer and the lost child last year.
.
Wanxi resolutely wiped away her tears, and the emperor has returned.

The emperor already knew about Xi Xin'er, but the circles under his eyes were still red.He came over and sat down side by side with Wanxi, holding Wanxi in his arms.

"...Don't worry, our child, the master will definitely not leave in vain; even if the little deer is gone, and we have another child, the master will definitely give us more heart and more compensation for this one." children go."

Wanxi held back her tears and nodded vigorously, "I don't dare to believe in heaven, because God has already taken away my two children in succession, but they didn't give any warning... In this world, I am the only one who dares to believe in me. I don't doubt what I said; I will also give our children, not only Xiaoluer and this new kid, but also Xiaoqi, Jiujiu, and the lost child last year, to Huang Ama, thank you .”

The emperor felt a pain in his heart, and hugged Wanxi tightly in his arms.

"Don't say such stupid things. There are no monarchs and ministers at this time, only father and son. I only feel ashamed of the children. I can't be like a commoner and watch them grow up every day. What kind of gratitude are you, huh?"

Wanxi nodded with tears in her eyes, "Because I am the Son of Heaven and the father of the world, I have to take care of thousands of people in the world, so I can't just take care of a few of them..."

The emperor's heart hurt even more, so he tightened his grip on Wanxi, and swore in a low voice: "But I will tell you: from now on, our children, I will definitely watch them like eyeballs! I will not let them leave my father again." vision."

"Grandpa, from now on, we will watch our children grow up with our own eyes. Never miss a day again."
.
No matter how sad it is to lose Xiaoluer, the wedding of the fourth princess will be in a few hours.

On the morning of the ninth day of March, the emperor still endured his grief, and pulled Wanxi away from the garden and back to the palace.

Otherwise, this "natural picture" island will leave traces of sadness everywhere.The Hall of Five Fortunes is the place where the little deer left; and those sesame oil lamps and splendid color workshops that were specially lit for the little deer will be removed and replaced with plain white ones... If Wanxi stays on the island, she will see it with her own eyes like this. Look, how can we not let the sorrow eat away.

The emperor also became cruel and took her back to the palace by force.Anyway, there was still a wedding banquet in the palace.Because of Wanxi's affection for Princess Hejia and Fu Long'an, the fourth concubine, she had to cheer up.

As long as the spirit is not down, everything will be fine.
.
The emperor just rushed back from the garden this morning, and the palace was already full of joy.

The wedding is still held separately in the front court and the rear palace.The men of the previous dynasty saluted and gave banquets in the Palace of Preserving Harmony; the women in the harem held banquets in the Empress Dowager’s Palace of Compassion and Peace.

The location of the Yongshou Palace happened to be between the Palace of Preserving Harmony and the Palace of Compassion and Peace, so Wanxi could at least keep a distance between the great sorrow and the great joy, and find a quiet place.

She is sitting in her Yongshou Palace, and when the auspicious time has not arrived, she has to find something to do.

When Yurui walked in, she heard Wanxi's mouth crackling.

Yurui originally thought it was Wanxi who was reciting scriptures, but after listening carefully, she realized something was wrong.

"The dowry dowry of Princess Heshuo is stipulated, accompanied by: one hat inlaid with nine east beads, one golden flower on the back of the soft hat inlaid with turquoise and coral pendant beads, one golden Buddha inlaid with two east beads, and one gold flower inlaid with east beads , a piece of turquoise, a golden flower on the back of a summer hat, a gold collar inlaid with seven eastern beads, a gold hoop inlaid with nine eastern beads, and two golden flowers each with a small bead inlaid..."

"The third-class red gold is 50 taels, light gold is 50 taels, and silver is 1 taels..."

"One hundred boxes of powder, two hundred boxes of rouge, ten pairs of ivory combs, seventy-five pairs of poplar combs, twenty combs, twenty brushes, twenty toothbrushes, eight brushes, two mirrors, two mirror cases... ..."

"Ten women, eighty households, two Zhuangtou; they accompany the forehead son-in-law and mother-in-law, mother-in-law, three second-class women, and four third-class women..."

Only then did Yurui think about it, and Wanxi actually talked about Princess Hejia's dowry!
Because Wanxi had done all these things by herself before, she had gone through the gift list many times in person, and checked each one clearly.This has become a thing of the past.

Yurui endured the pain in her heart, stepped forward to try to smile, and asked softly on purpose, "Sister, what are you reading?"

Wanxi herself was agitated, she seemed to wake up, but she shook her head, "What am I reciting? "The Great Compassion Mantra" or "The Rebirth Curse"?"

Yurui shook her head, sat down, and gently helped Wanxi massage her forehead.

"Neither. I knew you didn't know what you were talking about... What my sister was talking about was the fourth princess's dowry gift list."

Wanxi was also slightly startled, "Ah", "I don't even know."

Yu Rui nodded, "Even though my sister said that my heart is still uncomfortable, my mind still can't come back from the garden; but my sister doesn't know it, but this heart is actually halfway back. My sister feels sorry for the fourteenth brother , but I still can't let go of the fourth princess."

The words called Yurui, like a revelation, brought Wanxi's mind back to her eyes.

There was still water in Wanxi's eyes, and she nodded vigorously, "You are right. The little deer has already left, and today is the day to give Nianhua. If I am still sleepwalking today, I will miss giving Nianhua again. chance to go.”

"She has officially left the palace since today and has become someone's daughter-in-law. I have the same love with her as a mother and daughter. How can I be so sleepwalking today, why don't I give her a good one?"

Yurui smiled with relief, and the corners of her eyes turned red again.

"I'm relieved to have such a word from my sister. My sister always understands better than us. If my sister has such a heart, she will definitely be able to get through everything."
.
On the ninth day of March, at any rate, under the atmosphere of the wedding with Princess Jia, it ended in a lively manner.

When Princess Hejia was about to leave, Concubine Chun could no longer come to see her off in person, so Wanxi followed Nala to see her off.Princess Hejia held Wanxi's hand, weeping quietly, and instructed in a low voice, "...I'll go now; Brother Six has already left the palace, and there is only Erniang in this palace. Auntie Ling , anyhow, because of the friendship with me these years, take care of Ernie for me."

And Princess Jia said it herself, feeling guilty, "I know, the little deer just left yesterday, this is the most uncomfortable time for Aunt Ling, but I still have to put this burden on Aunt Ling... It's just that in the harem Auntie Ling is the only person who can make me feel at ease."

Wanxi tried her best to smile and nodded, "Don't worry. Even without your instructions, wouldn't I not do this?"

"Besides, you are a Lijiang. Nine days later will be your return ceremony, and you can go back to the palace to see your mother-in-law again; besides, you are a princess of the Qing Dynasty, and you are not just splashing water out of the house. , you can go back to the palace to pay your respects, it will not be much different from when you were still in the palace."

Although Princess Hejia nodded, she still shed tears, "After all, I can't serve you day and night under Er Niang's knees. Besides, my Er Niang's current situation..."

Wanxi pressed Princess Hejia's hand, "Your sixth brother got married on the sixth day of March, and you are getting married today. In three days, two weddings between your brothers and sisters are enough to make your mother happy. Your mother will definitely get better."

(Ask for a monthly ticket~haha, thank you for the various rewards of the new gameplay, flowers and diamonds~~)
