Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2443 No Swearing

Yong Qi squinted her eyes, but she didn't want to act rashly anymore.

Although Prince Jane is also a prince, and is a hereditary and irreplaceable mistress, after all, the royal family is divided into relatives and distant relatives.The branch of Prince Jane was no longer considered close by the time of the Qianlong Dynasty; this kind of closeness can be seen from the level of funeral ceremonies received by the two princes who passed away this year.

In June, the old Prince Jian Qitong passed away. The emperor just sent Hongluo, who had just been relegated to Baylor, and led ten guards to offer tea and wine; He went to Prince Jian's mansion to see his illness in person, but he did not attend the memorial ceremony in person after the old Prince Jian passed away.

And Prince Lu Yunxuan passed away in July, only one month later than old Prince Jian.The emperor ordered the fourth prince Yongxuan and the fifth prince Yongqi to wear filial piety. This level is much higher than Hongluo's libation; and after the emperor returned to Luan, he personally visited Prince Lu...

After all, Prince Lu Yunxuan was the emperor's own uncle, while the lineage of Prince Jian had already been enshrined in the early days of the country, and the clan branch was far away.

"I'd better not go." Yong Qi said lightly, "Besides, I have just finished dressing up Prince Lu, if I get too close to Prince Jian's mansion, people will think that I am also guarding Prince Jian's residence. .”

E Ning also sighed in her heart.How could she not understand the depression in her heart after elder brother dressed the prince in filial piety.

"What elder brother said is true, then we should avoid it. Besides, it has only been four months since Prince Jian passed away, and their nephews are not ready for release. If we go now, we will have to avoid it." At least we have to tie a filial piety belt... Besides, during the filial piety period, it is not appropriate for their palace to celebrate. If we don’t go, we will not be rude. Instead, we will fulfill them, and save them from making troubles during the filial piety period. There is some movement."

Yong Qi nodded, and didn't speak any more, she turned her head and went back to write, and she and E Ning had nothing to say.

E Ning stood on the spot, looking at such an elder brother, nothing but sadness was left in her heart besides sighing.

When Elder Brother felt uncomfortable, he didn't talk to her about it.Even if she wanted to help Elder Brother share the burden, she couldn't open the door in his heart, and couldn't walk into his heart.

She had no choice but to leave in embarrassment, and walked out the door with heavy steps.

Looking up at the sky, I don't know when there are sporadic snow stars.

She closed her eyes, and she also knew another reason why Elder Brother didn't go to Prince Jane's mansion - Baylor Hongluo was ordered to offer tea and wine to the old Prince Jian, and Hongluo was directly demoted from Prince Guo to Baylor. It started with Jiuzhou Qingyan's incident.

Therefore, elder brother should stay far away from Hongluo no matter in order to avoid suspicion or to avoid the embarrassment of his uncle and nephew meeting each other.

From this point of view, the fire in Jiuzhou Qingyan did not brighten up the future of Elder Brother, nor did it burn up their luck that Zhaoxiang had. Instead, it became a hearth, burning all of them People are put on the fire to roast or fry.
.
The scene of Qingzao standing on the steps looking up to the sky and sighing inadvertently fell into the eyes of Yingyuan in the window of the East Side Hall.

From July [-] to today, her child has been gone for almost three months.Although the pain was still deep in her heart, it finally managed to make her catch her breath.

At that moment, she resented elder brother, so resentful that she didn't even want to look at him; but at this moment, perhaps because the child was gone, her heart was really empty, and she couldn't help looking out the window occasionally. Look... If she saw Elder Brother, although she would turn her head away very quickly, refusing to let Elder Brother see him; but her heart would still throb for a moment.

After all, that person was the one she truly admired and looked up to.Back then, he gave her, the servant girl under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, more love than Fujin... He told her to have a child before Fujin; he smiled at her and gave her the most love.

Therefore, it is easier said than done if you want to express your complete hatred to him?
Even her resentment towards him is still unresolved, but "resentment", after all, is "resentment" before "resentment", and because of "resentment", it is not a complete hatred after all.

Yingyuan stared at E Ning for a while, and guessed from E Ning's expression that Elder Brother had something to do—she knew that Elder Brother was going to stay behind closed doors for a while, so he must be unhappy.If Elder Brother can talk to Fujin at this moment, I'm afraid it will be better; but Fujin came out after a while after entering, with such an expression, how could she not understand that Elder Brother is talking to Fujin , also closed the heart door to go.

Yingyuan felt a ripple in her heart, and she was so annoyed that she quickly turned around.

She didn't know whether she was annoying Elder Brother, Fujin, or herself.

After all... She really shouldn't have such ripples in her heart anymore.
.
Since Yongqi couldn't say it, E Ning also pressed this matter, and on the fourth day of October, he just sent a congratulatory gift to Prince Jian's mansion to express his feelings.

It's just that E Ning didn't expect that ten days later, on October [-], the emperor decreed that Feng Naheng, the new Prince Jian, would still be in charge of the affairs of the Jianrui camp after being appointed as the minister of the guard.

The Jianrui Battalion selects young and strong men from the Vanguard Battalion and the Guard Battalion, most of them are Yunti soldiers, who are the elite of the Eight Banners Forbidden Army. (That is, quite today's special forces)

During the Great Jinchuan Battle, the emperor built imitation watchtowers in the Jingyi Garden Palace, and personally trained the ladder soldiers, thus forging the victory of the Great Jinchuan Battle; and thus secretly assisted Jiuye Fu Heng to achieve the lifelong meritorious service of the Great Jinchuan Battle. , is this Jianrui camp.

Everyone in the Jianrui camp is proficient in climbing stairs, musket shooting, equestrianism, riding and archery, horse racing, and navy training. Their bravery and bravery are by no means comparable to that of ordinary guards.There is also a boat battalion under the Jianrui battalion, which is the navy of the Qing army, and the dragon boat races at the Dragon Boat Festival every year are undertaken by the forwards of this navy.

In the ensuing battle of pacifying the size and Zhuo, the Jianrui Battalion made another contribution: in the Battle of Huerchao, the Jianrui Battalion, outnumbered and outnumbered, repelled the siege of more than [-] enemy troops. He made his first contribution in the battle.Receiving the award from the emperor's decree further established the status of this team in the army. Afterwards, whenever similar incidents occurred, the imperial court would send out the Jianrui battalion first.

It is precisely because the Jianrui Battalion is so elite that the most important and core places in the capital, the inner city, are guarded by the Jianrui Battalion.Therefore, whoever controls this team will have the ability to control Ouchi almost instantly.

As soon as the news came that day, Yong Qi almost jumped up from the kang, and couldn't wait to ask the eunuch to pass it on. From inside the hall, she ignored the pain in her legs and went straight out, and ran into E Ning's bedroom.

"Prepare a generous gift, I'm going to Prince Jane's mansion to congratulate Fonnegen!"

E Ning was dumbfounded.

After a while, he said, "But...but I already sent someone to give gifts on the fourth day of October."

Yongqi raised her eyebrows abruptly, "Who asked you to send it! Didn't I say, don't worry about it for now?"

E Ning froze in place, teardrops rolling in her eye circles because of her grievance.

"Elder brother said that, but I thought it was because elder brother didn't congratulate himself. After all, even if we don't have people, we can't lack courtesy; even if elder brother can't take care of himself for the time being, I should Fujin's family has to be considerate for Elder Brother, at least I will send a gift first, and also take care of Elder Brother's face..."

This is what a prince Fujin should do to manage his family, and besides, she is doing it for her own sake, it is all for her elder brother's sake.But I didn't expect that not only did I not get a good word from my elder brother, but I was reprimanded by my elder brother with such straight eyebrows.

Who should she tell her grievances?
Yong Qi was only in a hurry, and frowned and said, "You have taken care of your face, but I have to go there in person at this moment, what do you think I should do? Is it because I committed a crime knowingly and gave the gift too much; or is it just this time? Just go empty-handed?"

"Besides, they are outside the palace. I am a prince who lives in the palace. If I don't have a good reason, why can I go out of the palace to their palace? When I leave the palace, the guards will ask again, and I have to record it. If you go back and report to Huang Ama, you will be accused of 'associating with ministers' again!"

E Ning was aggrieved, but also worried, "My elder brother said... It was the best reason to celebrate Prince Jane's ascension to the throne. But since the gift has already been delivered, we can no longer rely on this excuse. "

E Ning raised her eyes and looked at Yong Qi, "It's just that elder brother must go this time? It's only been a dozen days, but their filial piety period will last for 27 months, and there will be two Years ago... Why is Elder Brother in such a hurry to visit the door in person?"

Yongqi was so annoyed that she couldn't help flicking her sleeves, "How did you know that Huang Ama suddenly asked him to still take care of the Jianrui camp! When Fengneheng attacked the prince, Huang Ama didn't have a clear word. I thought that the Jianrui Camp would be assigned to someone else, but after more than ten days, Huang Ama still asked him to take care of it!"

E Ning's heart trembled slightly, "Jianrui Camp... is really important, it can even be said to be the lifeline! Elder brother is right, elder brother has to go, and he has to go in person!"

Under E Ning's impatience, she also had the courage to go all out.

"Old man! Our Zhaoxiang office is next to the gate of Fuyuan; and outside the gate of Fuyuan is Nanfu. There are all kinds of people coming and going in Nanfu. In addition to the eunuchs who are accepted by the palace, there are also outsiders who come into the palace. The enshrined servants... always have different faces, and there are always some special and weird clothes. Therefore, even the guards guarding the palace gates are interrogated, and there must be times when they are not careful and the interrogation is not tight." (There is a Zhaoxiang office in the Forbidden City, and there is also a Zhaoxiang office in the Old Summer Palace. Yongqi is in the palace and in the garden, and they are all in these two places~)

Yong Qi also shuddered in her heart, but after a while, the awe in her eyes was finally replaced by joy.

"Well said! The fifth son of the emperor, Yongqi, can't leave the palace without purpose; but if the person who leaves the palace is not the fifth son of the emperor, Yongqi? As long as Prince Jian Fengneheng doesn't say anything, who else will know? , have I ever gone out?"

E Ning also laughed, "I just want to wrong my elder brother and play a role in the troupe."

Yong Qi snorted softly, "So what are you afraid of? Back then, in order to avoid the battle with Huang Ama for the throne, Fifth Uncle (and Prince Hongzhou) spent all day learning to sing operas. The old songs are all translated into Yi tunes, and the guests at the door are all deaf and tired of hearing it, but the fifth uncle is alone and never tired of it... How can I not be able to do what the fifth uncle can do? Not to mention it is just makeup It’s not a big deal to play a role, but you don’t have to take it seriously to sing in public!”

Yong Qi walked to the full-length mirror, looked at herself in the mirror, put on a few postures, and smiled conceitedly.

Seeing that elder brother finally smiled in the mirror today after experiencing these days of misery, E Ning's heart also burst with infinite joy.

She walked over lightly and hugged Yongqi's waist from behind.

"... If Elder Brother can also pretend to be that Xiaosheng, he must be famous all over the capital, and all the Xiaosheng in this Liyuan shop will have to pack their bags and go home!"

Yong Qi raised her eyebrows conceitedly, "Xiaosheng? It's okay to be so foolish and babbling. If I want to pretend to be a martial arts student!"

E Ning knew that she had made a slip of the tongue, so she hurriedly put her forehead on Yongqi's back, and kowtowed lightly, "It's my concubine who is clumsy. I originally wanted to say that I was a general of Wusheng, but I clearly distinguished their professions, so I mistook them for Xiaosheng when I opened my mouth." Yes, you should be punished."

"Our elder brother is proficient in bow, horse, riding and archery. He is a general in battle, so he should be a martial arts student!"

Yong Qi looked at E Ning from the mirror who was blushing at this moment, and thought about the good idea she had just made for herself, so she hugged her with both arms, and pressed her lips tightly together go……

In the Dongpei Hall, Yingyuan said that she didn't want to care about Elder Brother, but she couldn't control her legs. Every time, she couldn't help but walk to the window, breathed with her hand, and pressed against the glass window Go up, melt the thick frost on the top, carefully look out through the palm-sized glass.

This time, elder brother entered Fujin's bedroom, and never came out again.

She didn't know why, but she suddenly stood by the window and couldn't help laughing.

She also knew that she was stupid, and this smile was even more unreasonable, but she just couldn't control it, she just wanted to keep laughing like this.

Laughing, a drop of cool saltiness from the corner of his lips got into his lips, and he couldn't let it go away when he was tired.
.
On October [-], the emperor returned to Luan from the palace.

This time the emperor first went to Changchun Garden to greet the Empress Dowager, and then returned to Yuanmingyuan from Changchun Garden.

Such a small change in the emperor's itinerary made Concubine Xin's whole heart aroused.

The emperor newly named Fu Changzai, who learned the rules in the empress dowager's palace, last time he came back to the garden but didn't bring it back; then this time, is the emperor finally going to formally bring Fu Changzai back to the garden?

"It's okay, he can take it with him!" Concubine Xin stared at herself in the makeup mirror when she was dressing up, and tried to comfort herself, "After all, the seal is sealed, and it can't be thrown in the empress dowager's palace forever, that's not appropriate." Rules. Even if it is brought back, she is still just a small resident after all, even if she wants to make something out of it, she still needs a lot of time!"

Concubine Xin never expected that what the emperor brought back from the Changchun Garden was not the blessing that was sealed half a month ago, but another piece of news——

"I granted the empress dowager the blessing to learn the rules in the palace. I feel that the empress has a very good vision, which is very in line with my wishes. The empress sent the Fucha family and the Wang family to learn the rules in the empress dowager's palace at the same time. , Then how can I just seal one person and leave the other in the cold? Therefore, I still informed the Empress Dowager that I had ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs eighteen days ago, and also granted Wang as a permanent residence. For 'Eternal Being'."

The emperor raised his eyebrows lightly, and with a happy face, he was the first to tell Queen Nala.

Nala stood on the spot, not knowing what was going on in his heart for a moment.But seeing the emperor smiling, and the emperor once again praised her for her good eyesight and filial piety to the empress dowager, then she could only reciprocate with a showy smile.

The emperor patted Nala's hand, "The status of Chang Zai is low, and I don't need to give titles, but this time, Fu Chang Zai and Yong Chang Zai, I personally bestowed titles on both of them. This is not only because they are both Those who learned the rules from the Empress Dowager's Palace are naturally better than other women; it's also because they were originally picked out by you, the Empress, so I will be kind to you."

Nala could only half-squat with a smile on his face, "I thank the emperor for his kindness, and the emperor praised me absurdly. I really don't dare to be a concubine."

Only then did the emperor walk towards Concubine Xin with a smile on his face, and finally stood in front of Concubine Xin.

The emperor lowered his head and stared warmly into Concubine Xin's eyes, "Concubine Xin, I have heard from the Imperial Hospital that you have symptoms of 'leakage'. I have been busy in the palace these days, so I didn't bother to come to see you. Is it better?"

As the emperor spoke, he looked Concubine Xin up and down, with relief on his face, "I see that you look good, and you can stand for such a long time in this winter, so steady, your body must be fine."

Concubine Xin was originally full of joy, but the emperor just opened his mouth and only asked about her "leakage", which made her feel a little embarrassed.

After all, she didn't want everyone in the harem to hear about this matter!Otherwise, they should really think that her fetal gas is not stable, and secretly they might not know how to laugh at her!
Concubine Xin then stood more steadily and raised her head high, "Going back to the emperor, I'm fine. Fortunately, the emperor is sympathetic and ordered the imperial physicians to take care of me carefully. Both Shi Shiqi and Chen Shiguan have to be used. It's all right."

The emperor nodded in relief, "It's fine. Thinking about your pregnancy, it's almost five months away. In two months, Yuxi will be officially ready, so I have to ask Yuxi to make preparations in advance."

Time flies so fast, Nalashi couldn't help squinting his eyes when he heard it.

What she told Chen Shiguan that day, she didn't know how Chen Shiguan was doing; but just now Concubine Xin specially praised Chen Shiguan in front of the emperor, which made her feel a little inappropriate.

She opened her eyes wide, looked up and down, left and right, and carefully sized Concubine Xin's figure.

After all, she has given birth to several children, and her eyes can't tolerate sand.After seeing it, she couldn't help smiling, stepped forward and stood beside the emperor, stared at Concubine Xin and smiled, "It's been five months? It really is so fast. But Concubine Xin's happy face, I don't see it clearly How about it? It is said that it has been five months, and the belly should be quite obvious."

Concubine Xin was disturbed, so she stood up straight, put her hands behind her waist, and stretched her stomach forward, "Master, you are too worried! I have just been in front of the emperor, so I am humble; besides, this It's winter, and the robes are fat and thick, so they just cover up the happy shape!"

Nala smiled slightly, "So that's it~~ It seems that I was worrying too much, but it's okay, after all, I have to give you the good news in two months. It's time to add Grandma Shouyue and Doctor Shouyue. At that time Naturally, Grandma Shouyue will check your belly personally when she sees Tianer, and record the size of your happy shape according to Tianer... It's just that it's inconvenient for the imperial doctors to look at and touch your belly at this moment. It will be convenient for grandmas at that time."

"I'll just wait. When the time comes, I'll listen to the reports from the Moon Grandmas, and I'll naturally feel relieved."

The emperor also had a gentle face, and said kindly, "You're right, the empress really cares about your body, Concubine Xin. Concubine Xin, it's the end of the year again, and I'm busy with everything. From time to time, if there is anything lacking in your palace, or if you have anything special you want to eat or use, just come and tell the queen."

As the emperor said, he turned and smiled at Nala, "Queen, I will leave Concubine Xin and her fetus to you."

Nalashi shrugged and smiled, and squatted slowly, "This is what I should do, even if it wasn't ordered by the emperor, I will naturally take good care of Concubine Xin and her children..."

The emperor nodded in satisfaction, as if he raised his eyes calmly and saw Wanxi.

"Since that's the case, I don't want the empress to be too busy. Concubine Ling, you can take care of the empress dowager's birthday and other preparations for the next year for the empress. If there are still things that are too busy, then Ask Concubine Ying to help you go."

Wanxi bowed happily, "The concubine obeys the order."
.
That night, the emperor came a little late.

When the emperor lifted the curtain and came in, Wanxi yawned on purpose, pretended not to be watching, and turned her back.

The emperor could clearly see her small appearance, so he spat, "Just lock the door~~"

It was only then that Wanxi "suddenly realized", she quickly turned around, stood up and apologized, "I think my master won't be able to come in tonight, I don't dare to lock the door to prevent my master from coming in... This slave is thinking, I just sealed a Fu Chang is here, and after half a month, Yong Chang is sealed again, and the two newcomers are here, so you can't leave them all alone, can you?"

"Say this again!" The emperor sat down on the edge of the kang with his robe lifted, stretching his legs out angrily, "I'll punish you for stripping my master's boots!"

Wanxi pouted, but squatted down without embarrassment, holding the emperor's thick-soled cloud-top soap boots with both hands, but her eyes wandered a little far away.

"This October is really unusual. This is called Double Happiness. It can be described as 'Left Qingcang, Right Leading Huang'..."

The emperor's long eyes widened, he spat, and stretched out his hand to pinch Wanxi's chin.

"Well, you, are you scolding them both?"

Wanxi raised her eyes, turning her wonderful eyes lightly, "For the Han people, calling people an eagle and a dog is a curse; but for the Manchus, the eagle is a sea dongqing, a divine bird; a dog is a lifesaver, and it is even more so. The most loyal partner...so this is a compliment from a slave, not a curse~"

"You eloquent little girl!"

The emperor laughed again, feeling helpless. He squeezed Wanxi's chin with his long fingers, but his fingertips were already on Wanxi's red lips, twisting on purpose, "Master, please forgive me!" Come on, even this eagle and dog are not curse words; but do you want to say that the master is "slightly frosty on the temples, so why not?"
