Chapter 2460 Seven Volumes 164 Don't Want To Die With You

The emperor went back to the palace, but left a group of harem in the Old Summer Palace.

Ordinarily, this is also a common practice. After all, the emperor lived in the Yuanmingyuan for many days, and only went back to the palace for a few days when there were major celebrations and sacrifices.It will be back in a few days, and it will take a lot of trouble to bring everyone back together.

But the practice is the practice, but every time the emperor went back to the palace, he would bring one or two people alone.

This time, the emperor did not bring Yongchangzai, Fuchangzai and Ningchangzai, but the fourth person bestowed last year—promise to the little Fucha clan.
.
The emperor's move surprised everyone in the harem.

After all, among the four people who were bestowed last year, Xiao Fucha was the latest and the lowest.

Because the promised position was too low, the emperor did not give him a title.For a concubine without a title, it is a bit unfair to call her a name, which makes others think more when she speaks.

From the emperor's point of view, it is easy to handle, just directly address "so-and-so palace agrees".At this time, the little Fucha family lived with the Nala family, so the emperor's decree referred to it as "Yikun Palace Promise".

The trouble is for other concubines, especially eunuchs and official women who are slaves.

Promise that although the position is the lowest, it is not the head of the inner court.Only the head of the inner court who started as a nobleman can be called a "master", but promise is at least a small master, after all, eunuchs and officials and women dare not neglect.

There are also ready-made rules in the palace, and concubines who don't have a title can also be called by their names.For example, women with Han surnames such as Wanxi directly use their surnames as names, and call them "the master of Wei Guiren" and so on;

The emperor of the Manchu family has strictly prohibited the use of Han Chinese names to be called together. Therefore, no matter whether it is a concubine in the harem or a Fujin of the prince and grandson, they are never allowed to be called "Niuhulu Gege" or "Fucha". Those who are "noble people" can only follow the old Manchurian customs, calling them by their first names but not their surnames.Therefore, the little Fucha family cannot be called "Fucha Promise".Fortunately, there is also a compromise method, which can use the first letter of the biological father's name as the name.

For example, the father of the little Fucha family is De Ke Jinge, so it can be called "De Promise".Or follow their mother's family Cheng Engong Dazong, and call him "Fu Wen" from Fu Wen; or follow Ninth Master Fu Heng and call him "Fu Ying", it doesn't matter.

When it comes to Mongolian concubines, they can also be named according to the first letter of their biological father's name, or they can be named after the tribe where the mother's family is located.

Therefore, some eunuchs and official women were called "Fu Ying", and some were called "Fu Ying", and so on.

In fact, there is no need to go through so many troubles when it comes to the title of Xiao Fucha's family.Because in the emperor's harem, there is only one who agrees at this time, and there is no other.Even the three coat-coated women from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who were conferred together last year were always present at the first conferment, and they were all above the Xiaofucha clan.Therefore, since Xiao Fucha's status is unique, there is no need to distinguish it by name.

When the emperor got up and drove back to the palace, all the palaces received news that the little Fucha family had followed him back to the palace.The eunuchs and women in the various palaces were talking all over the place when they called this name, which made all the lords of the palace laugh.

Also, who would have thought that the dignified Empress Yuan's niece and granddaughter, who entered the palace as a beautiful girl from the Eight Banners, would make such a unique promise for the first time?
The little Fucha clan was clearly out of favor, but Concubine Xin was relieved.After all, starting from October last year, the emperor granted four newcomers consecutively, if all of them were favored one by one, then the emperor would not care about her even more.

But at this moment, there was news that Xiao Fucha went back to the palace alone with the emperor, which made Concubine Xin's heart aroused again.

"What's the matter, after the new year, it's finally the little Fucha's turn to be favored?"

Both Le Rong and Le Yi said, "Although the first conferment is only the lowest promise, but it is the grand-nephew of Empress Xiaoxian after all. Even if the emperor doesn't want to see her anymore, he won't be left in the cold forever, right?"

Le Rong glanced at Concubine Xin, "Besides, March [-]th is the anniversary of Empress Xiaoxian's death. As usual, the emperor will send officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to sacrifice to Empress Xiaoxian's mausoleum, and the Changchun Palace in the palace will also make offerings. At least she should go to salute, right? This gave her the opportunity to accompany her alone..."

Concubine Xin sneered, "Then it will be cheaper for her! Thinking about these days, she is the only one in the palace, so she will definitely try to sleep with her! With her status, I can't be on my guard against her."

Le Yi lightly said, "Actually, it's not our turn to be on guard against her at this moment. Just because of her identity, and her similar appearance to Empress Xiaoxian, the Queen's master is the first one to take precautions against her." "In addition, it is Ling Guifei."

Concubine Xin rolled her eyes and smiled, "Yeah, the two of them have to worry about it, I'm not in a hurry!"

What she should be anxious about now is when can she tell the emperor to come back to the garden quickly.

The days left for her are running out, and the last half month is her last chance.
.
The emperor delayed returning to the Old Summer Palace until March [-]th.

Concubine Xin was both happy and anxious, so she urged Le Rong and Le Yi to go to Jiuzhou Qingyan immediately, using the eighth princess as an excuse to see the emperor alone.

Le Rong and Le Yi knew that they could no longer dodge this time, so they had no choice but to bite the bullet and respond.

The two left the dormitory together, bypassed the clip wall, avoided the eyes of everyone, and stood at the base of the wall to face each other.

Le Yi couldn't hold back anymore, "If it goes like this, if the emperor asks about the birth of the master, what should we answer? Should we say yes or no?"

"If the emperor is in peace, it's okay to talk about it, but if the emperor is also worried about this matter, he will definitely ask the two of us, why didn't we report it in time when we found out that there was something wrong? The two of us will take the blame first."

Le Rong frowned, "Who says it's not? After all, the two of us are serving closely. We should both know what's going on with the master. But we've kept it a secret until now, and the emperor doesn't care whether we are or not." Follow the master's orders, the emperor will only ask about our sins first!"

Le Yi closed her eyes, "Why are we so unlucky? I have been with the master for these years, and I went back to the south on my last tour, and got that good money from An Ning. In the end, An Ning committed a crime before he warmed it up. It turned the silver in our hands into something that bites our hands, and it almost made us unable to get rid of it."

"It's only been a few days since the master made such a big incident again! I dared to say something that shouldn't be said - what happened to the eighth princess's body, the master still won't get a memory , how did Yuxi dare to make a bigger fuss this time!"

Le Rong also looked sad, "The matter of the eighth princess almost caused us to lose half our lives; An Ning's silver almost caused us to jump into the Yellow River to wash it off... But fortunately, we are also good at fortune-telling, and we all lost our lives." I escaped. But why do I feel that the two of us may not be able to escape this time?"

Le Yi stomped her feet, "Who says it's not? After all, this is the emperor's heir, and it's time to give birth at full term. If there's a lot of trouble, it's a serious crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Le Rong, who has always been mature and prudent, is also out of order this time.

"Then you say, this time... are we doomed? Could it be that we have served the master once in this life, and in the end, we still need to be buried for her?"

Le Yi clenched her fingertips, "I don't know what you think, anyway, I'm not reconciled!"

Le Yi's eyes burst out hard sparks in the night.

"As slaves, since we have followed the master, we should serve the master wholeheartedly. Ask yourself, I have fulfilled these duties, and I have not wronged the master at all... But I never thought of dying with her. Bury for her!"

Le Rong also closed his eyes in despair, "Yes, if it is buried, then we will not only serve her while we are alive; even after we die, we will still be her slaves when we go underground, and we will follow her for life... I I don't want to!"

Le Yi's eyes turned, and the sadness faded into the background color, which couldn't cover the sudden brilliance in her eyes.

Le Rong hurriedly asked, "You have a good idea, don't you? Tell me quickly! Time waits for no one, and we will follow her. There is only half a month left. Whether it is life or death, it is up to our half." I have to make up my mind within a month!"

Le Yi bowed her head and laughed silently.

Le Rong became anxious, and stepped forward to push Le Yi, "At this moment of life and death, you still take Joe with me! After all, you and I are grasshoppers on a rope, I can't live, and you have the guts to escape alone ? Say it quickly!"

Le Yi thought about it, and Fang said slowly, "Actually, at this time, I should be so anxious to follow the ants on the hot pot, not only you and me, but also others."

Le Rong narrowed his eyes, "You mean the two moon-shouling grandmas?"

Le Rong couldn't laugh. "Cough, I don't think so! Although the two of them have some responsibilities, after all, the two of them came into our palace on the 25th of December and the third day of February. The master's fetus, before they came in , it's already leaking red... They can push six, two, five, one at a time!"

"Besides, can't you see that these two moon-shouling grandmas have backers behind them. Grandma Sun was put into our palace by the Queen's master, so she must belong to the Queen; and Grandma Wu is from the emperor's family." Zhitian, even if it is the emperor's people... With these two backers, who would dare to cause trouble for the two of them? In the end, it's just the two of us who are unlucky."

Le Rong spoke heartbrokenly, but Le Yi listened to each other but didn't agree, and instead of being nervous along with him, he was a little distracted.

——As she listened, there was still a dreamy smile on the corner of her lips.

Le Rong was startled, and hurriedly pushed Le Yi, "Could it be that I guessed wrong? Then who are you talking about?"

Le Yi didn't speak, but her eyes couldn't help but glance to Doctor Shou Yue's room.

Le Rong looked out following Yue Yi's eyes - after all, the imperial physicians are all tall men, even if they guard the moon in the palace, they are far away from the bedroom.Doctor Shouyue's on-duty room is in the same room as the chief eunuch added by the palace supervisor on the day of the happy event. It is also convenient for the eunuchs to monitor the imperial doctors.

When Le Rong saw Le Yi looking over there, his heart couldn't help but blurt out, "Could it be that the person you're referring to is Chen Shiguan?"

After Le Rong finished speaking, he clapped his hands, "Yes! He is the imperial physician on duty, and he is the one who waits on the master's baby boy. It was Chen Shiguan who asked the emperor to kick him out and not let him come any closer. But in the first few months, he also took the responsibility to go."

"If the master's fetal image is different, he is more responsible than us. If we have to die, then he may not be able to escape!"

Le Yi nodded with a smile after hearing this, her expression finally revealing a trace of shyness, "But look, has Imperial Physician Chen panicked like us? He advances and retreats like Yi, but he is still sitting in front of the window reading a book at this moment. Take it easy, take it easy."

Le Rong couldn't help but widen his eyes, and looked Le Yi up and down, "You mean...he might have a way to protect himself?"

Le Yi nodded, "We are worried about the same thing, but if he has a way to protect himself, then maybe we can use the same way to protect ourselves. I thought, why don't we go and find out with Imperial Physician Chen, Learn from him too..."

Le Rong was embarrassed, "This matter must be a secret. How can he be willing to tell us now?"

But Yue Yi rubbed the embroidered edges on her clothes, lowered her head and said, "...he can speak."

Le Rong squinted his eyes and carefully looked at Le Yi several times, and asked hesitantly, "He, can he tell you? Are you sure?"

Le Yi blushed, but still nodded firmly.

Le Rong couldn't care less about teasing Le Yi at this time, so he immediately reached out and pushed Le Yi, "Then why don't you hurry up and ask him?"
.
Taking advantage of the night, Le Yi combed her hair and temples again, changed into bright clothes, carefully looked around for no one, and then went into Doctor Shouyue's duty room.

The life in the palace is also lonely, Chen Shiguan has no other entertainment, this time he is sitting under the window playing chess by himself.

Hearing the movement, Chen Shiguan raised his eyes and looked over. When he saw Le Yi, he stood up in shock.

"Miss Yueyi, you, why are you here?"

He got up a little anxiously, his clothes brushed against the chessboard, black and white were messed up.

Le Yi smiled shyly, and was not in a hurry to speak, she just stepped forward, looked at the chessboard, picked up the black and white pieces one by one, and straightened them up again.

Chen Shiguan exclaimed when he saw it, "Young lady is good at chess."

Yue Yi was embarrassed, shook her head and said, "Official girls choose to enter the palace, and they also have to study courses. Except for female celebrities, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting must be at least a little proficient. Only those who pass the exam can be assigned to the lord's womb On a business trip."

Chen Shiguan shook his head with a smile on the other hand, "Although I haven't lived in the palace for long, I have seen many aunts in the palace. I have never seen anyone who is better at chess than the girl."

Le Yi's cheeks were flushed, and she hurriedly raised her hand to cover her face, "Look at what you said, I don't even know how to talk to you."

Chen Shiguan smiled elegantly, "No matter how you talk to me, Yue Yi, I think it sounds nice..."

The night was dim, and the candlelight by the window was red.The black and white pieces on the chessboard are clearly separated, but they are integrated into the same game.

All I could hear was the two whispering on a spring night in March, like spring insects whispering.

"Yueyi, you are a person who is proficient in chess. How can you not see right and wrong when you are in the world? You are a person with a heart, and you can bear it until now, but it is only because of your sincerity and nature that you never want to let the master down. , then suppressed himself again and again.”

"But at this point, one step forward is already a matter of life and death. It is enough to be loyal to the master these years, and now it is time to make plans for yourself."
.
Le Yi went back to the ear room where she and Le Rong lived that night, blushing and told Le Rong everything that Chen Shiguan had said to her.

Le Rong was not as blushing as Yue Yi, but after listening to Le Yi's words, his face was even more dejected.

"You're right. For the current plan, we can only report the truth to the emperor in advance, in order to pay off the crime. It's just that...we will have no face to stay in the palace. Wait If it's over now, we can only leave the palace."

Yue Yi was overjoyed, "Going out of the palace, okay! After all, we have already passed our age, and now we are all in our 30s. If we don't go out of the palace again, we will really die of old age in the palace, why?"

Le Rong shook his head sadly, "But we are used to seeing the nine palaces in the palace, which are prosperous and beautiful. Even if we go out of the palace, what kind of family do we have to marry in order to get such a place?"

"Besides, at our age, people who are over thirty, even dukes and generals, will not be indifferent. Even if you find an ordinary banner family, this age is too late to be a Fujin, at best you can only give If someone continues the family, after entering the door, you must first become a stepmother for the child of the family."

But Le Yi bowed her head and stared at her fingertips with a smile.

Le Rong was worried, but she wasn't.

Chen Shiguan is still young, and Chen Shiguan has not yet married.If Chen Shiguan remembered today's oath, then when she leaves the palace, she will still be the wife of the imperial physician, and when she enters the door, she will be a concubine Fujin. Life will be much better than being a servant in the palace.

Le Rong also saw that Le Yi was absent-minded.After all, although the two of them have been together all these years, their fate is different, and she can only envy her.

Le Rong cleared his throat, "In your opinion, which day should we go to see the emperor? After all, the days left for us are running out."

Le Yi nodded, "It's just that the days are numbered, so we should be ten times more careful. After all, we know what kind of person the master is. The last half month is also her last. Opportunity, we have to be more careful that she jumps over the wall in a hurry!"

"If we let her know that we two have such intentions, she must kill us two first? Therefore, this matter should not be too early, so as not to let her see something. After all, wait, At the end of this month, let's see what she will say about her life."

Le Rong also agreed, but she was still a little worried, "But she repeatedly urged us to go to the emperor with the matter of the eighth princess... We never go, and we don't give her an answer. Isn't she also suspicious?"

Le Yi nodded, "Okay, let's also send the Buddha to the west, so that she can finally fulfill her wish. Let's go to see the emperor tomorrow and tell the story about the eighth princess."

Le Rong was a little worried, "I really want to see the emperor..."

Le Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I really want to see the emperor. But this time we go, we have to 'report', and really tell the emperor what happened to the eighth princess in plain sight, so that the emperor can't be bothered. Blame it on us, and leave the emperor with a good idea to pay off the crime."

Le Rong also gritted her teeth, "Okay. After all, I secretly kept a pack of the dregs of the birth-improvement medicine back then. After drying it, I can still see the formula."

Le Yi also clapped her hands and laughed, "It's better to be more careful, so you have already saved this hand. I am not as good as you."

Le Rong was a little embarrassed, so she also hurriedly turned around and went out, "I'll go and see, she shouldn't call us for something else. If we're not diligent, and let her see the flaws, that would be bad. " Le Rong said, hurriedly stepped out, and went to the sleeping hall.
.
As it was almost the end of the month, Concubine Xin was so anxious that she was almost insane, the first thing she did every day when she opened her eyes was to ask the emperor if he was here.The entire palace was disturbed, but they could only endure it.

On March [-], the emperor went to Changchun Garden to greet the Empress Dowager.

Counting the days, Le Rong and Le Yi also decided to go to the emperor to talk about the Eighth Princess on this day.

On this day, Qing Zao also handed over the sign and entered the palace, feeling a little uneasy.

It turned out that her father, Yin Jishan, wrote a book to the emperor to discuss the lifting of the ban on raw silk going abroad.

Silk has always been one of China's most important products, and the West has always admired the beauty of Chinese silk, so all dynasties have been very cautious about sending raw silk abroad.

In the Qianlong Dynasty, in the 24th year of Qianlong, the minister proposed to ban the export of silk because of the high price of domestic raw silk for the benefit of the people.

It has been five years since the ban. Yin Jishan believes that even with the ban on exporting raw silk, the price of domestic raw silk has not dropped. It can be seen that the high price of raw silk has no direct relationship with exporting overseas.Yin Jishan asked the imperial court to lift the ban on raw silk going abroad for the sake of the people of the three prefectures of Hangjiahu.

Because raw silk is no better than other products, the courtiers have always been extremely cautious. At this time, Yin Jishan initiated the lifting of the ban, and he has since received criticism from many conservative former ministers.Qing Zao, who was in the palace, could vaguely hear the wind, which shows the intensity of the criticism.

Qing Zao didn't know what to do, so he came to discuss with Wanxi.

Wanxi had already heard the decree, nodded and said, "In my opinion, let's not say whether your ama's report is right or wrong, but I think you ama is a person with insight. The pattern in your ama's mind, It is definitely not comparable to some people who sat in a well and looked at the sky in the previous dynasty."

Qing Zao got a reassurance first, and her eyes turned a little red, "Ling Erniang said so, my heart is much more secure."

Wanxi patted Qing Zao's hand, "Look, the emperor made it clear in the decree that the raw silk that is allowed to go abroad is actually earthen silk, and the rough silk of two or three silkworms is not fine satin. It is going abroad. Nothing that those people feared will happen.”

"Furthermore, I really think that a sentence in the emperor's decree is really good - 'use the world's things for the world's use'. This is the kindness that China should have, and it is also the kindness of the emperor."

Qing Zao also nodded, "Ling Er Niang Mingjian, I also like Huang Ama's sentence the most. Huang Ama's mind is very human. I will tell the eighth brother when I go back, I have to learn from Huang Ama. .”

Wanxi also smiled and said, "In the past, there were always people who held Mr. Yin Jishan to take over the car, and did not let go of the matter of rebuilding mountains and waters in Qixia Mountain... Looking back at this time, the people who said those words were just sticking to the pattern in their hearts. One mountain and one river; but your lord's real vision is as high as the court and as far as the world. How can those people compare?"

Wanxi originally wanted to say, "How does a sparrow know the ambition of a swan", but then she thought that Master Jiu was also one of them, so she held back and said, "Your Majesty already knows the ambition of your father. In my opinion, you don't have to Worry about your father, but be proud of him."
