Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2520 Nine Volumes 2 Inviting the Moon
Yongqi stared at Yongzhen quietly, and said slowly, "I really don't know what the empress Erniang will think in her heart after hearing what you said, old twelve?"

Yongzhen himself was also dejected, shook his head, got up suddenly, and bowed deeply to Yongqi, "Fifth Brother once made a memorial to plead for my mother... This kindness, this kindness, my younger brother will never forget it."

After Yongzheng saluted, he left with an excuse instead, but then went into Xiaoshiwu's hall.

On this summer day in July, the windows of Xiao Shiwu's dormitory were all open.From inside the window came the childish voice of the fifteenth child, "Brother Twelve came just in time... Help me to see, what rhyme should I use for this poem?"

Yong Xin laughed softly, his voice was actually soft, "Oh? The fifteenth brother is going to compose poetry again?"

Xiao Shiwu smiled crisply, "Brother Twelfth's poems are very well written, I really like them! Brother Twelfth, please teach me anyway~~"

Yong Xin subconsciously raised his hand to his lips again, and let out a "shh".

Little Shiwu laughed ghostly, "Brother Twelve, don't worry, I won't call you Huang Ama, Empress Erniang knows that Brother Twelve also likes to write Chinese poems..."

But Yong Xin seemed to be choking and coughed for a while.

Little Shiwu said again, "Tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month. Apart from the Hungry Ghost Festival, it is also the birthday of Myna and Seventh Sister. Seventh Sister said, don't want any congratulatory gifts from me, just ask me to write a poem for you." Her. Brother Twelve, please help me~"

Outside the window, Yong Qi listened behind the shadow of the tree, and could not help squinting her eyes.

"...What is he? So he has learned how to respect brothers and sisters!"
.
Yong Qi got a bad nose at Yong Xi's place, and got angry again, so she turned around annoyed, and went into her bedroom, unable to recover for a long time.

"I looked up to him in vain. I thought, he was the only direct prince after all, and his temperament was so intolerable since he was a child. This time, he must have hatred in his heart when he saw the imperial concubine and the little fifteen mother and son... But It turned out that he was really scared out of his wits, not only didn't dare to argue for his mother, but even took the initiative to chase Xiao Shiwu."

Sande also sighed, "Isn't it? It is said that the fifteenth elder brother moved into Yuqing Palace. There was a commotion! But in the past few months, the Yuqing Palace is so quiet, there is not even a house bird chirping!"

Yong Qi frowned, "In the final analysis, Huang Ama's ruthless move worked."

When Nala was escorted back to the palace, Huang Ama actually asked all the princes and princesses to read the imperial decree, and also told all the princes and princesses to watch the three official girls around Nala go to the board... ... These golden branches and jade leaves, have they ever seen this before?Just a few of them who fainted, vomited, and turned pale from fright on the spot went!
"It's no wonder that the domineering old twelfth boy has turned into a tortoise today. He knew he couldn't save his mother-in-law, so he went to protect himself first." Yong Qi couldn't help but sighed.

"I misunderstood him. I thought that he knew the situation was embarrassing, so he finally took the initiative to approach me." Yong Qi twirled the green thumb on his thumb, "He also wrote the song "Ode to Things" The four poems rhyme with Mr. Buting, so I took it in vain as a tactful gesture of his kindness to me."

"Mr. Buting" is the name of Yingyuan's Ama Guanbao, because Yingyuan's little five elder brother will be one year old on August [-]th this year, Guanbao, who is a grandfather, wrote this in advance Several poems chanting things suitable for children were sent to Zhaoxiang's office to congratulate Xiao Wu.

The two brothers Guan Bao and De Bao are rare great talents in the Eight Banners family, brothers Hanlin, Guan Bao's literary talents are naturally lacking, and Yong Qi is also happy to publicize it, showing off with a group of brothers and clansmen in the upper study .

After all, E Ning's Ama has passed away, and the E family really has nothing to publicize; on the contrary, the Suo Chuo Luo family came from behind.He can't take advantage of the E family's honor, and he can be regarded as honorable when he moves out of Guanbao.

Yongzheng also saw Guanbao's poems about things.

Within two days, Yong Qi received the "Four Poems Chanting Things and the Rhyme of Mr. Buting" written by Yong Xin.Yong Xin wrote about the swan:

"The sky is a slow bird, and it is happy to swim with the crane. The frosty hair is shining on the curved threshold, and the golden toe is clear. It leans on the water and often sleeps at noon. It is not closed at night after opening the cage. Huang Ting is easy to get, and it is a good idea to exchange it."

Yong Qi squinted her eyes and said, "Listen, 'Tianji Shuchi Bird, Xin Conghe Yuyou'; 'Huang Ting is easy to get, in exchange for Yiliangmou', don't these two sentences mean my heart?"

"Then what he looks like today, is it because I misunderstood him, or did he change his mind later?"

San De also frowned, "But no matter what, Elder Brother has to change someone and make another arrangement for tomorrow's matter... Sigh, these twelve Elder Brothers are really delaying things. Today is July [-]th. Such a temporary change of mind is like dredging from the bottom of the pot!"
.
July [-]th, the night of Zhongyuan.

Even though this year was at the Summer Resort, the emperor still brought all the dignitaries of the inner court, princes and grandchildren, to watch the river lanterns on the lake on the "Moonlight River Sound" at the Summer Resort.

On the night of Zhongyuan, the most beautiful scenery is the moon in the sky, the lanterns in the water, and the beauty of the water and the sky.But this July [-]th of this year, there was a lunar eclipse.

The matter of the lunar eclipse was already occupied by Qin Tianjian a few days ago, Yong Qi got the news first, and this gave him an excellent opportunity to go.

On the night of July [-]th, without the moon in the sky, a prayer in the world would hardly be perfect.Besides, the lunar eclipse directly corresponds to the middle palace position in the harem... As long as Yongzheng pleads with Huang Ama on behalf of the queen this night, then Yongqi can take advantage of the situation and put the matter of the lunar eclipse on the imperial concubine's head!
A lunar eclipse is clearly a warning from the heavens that a star offends the moon, and my concubine threatens to go to the palace!

Huang Ama didn't dare to disobey God's will even if she wanted to, on the night of the lunar eclipse on the [-]th of July, she had to restrain the imperial concubine!
——It's a pity that Yong Xi is a coward, but he is willing to be a coward in order to protect himself!

Yongzhen's sudden dodge made all of Yongqi's wishful thinking come to naught.Due to the sudden occurrence of the incident, Ming Yongqi did not have time to prepare other countermeasures.Wanting to watch such an excellent opportunity from God slip away, Yong Qi stood on the pavilion and gritted her teeth.

Although there is no moon in the sky, the emperor does not seem to regret it.In the pavilion on this island, there is a mercury mirror in the corner, and a bright lantern made to imitate the moon is placed in front of the mirror.This is also as if there is already a bright moon as a companion in this pavilion.

Besides, today is Yongxuan and Xiaoqi's birthday together, the emperor was very excited and gave wine to Yongxuan and Qiezuo Lawangduoerji frequently.

Yong Qi's heart is even more uncomfortable.

When it was Yongqi's turn to toast, Yongqi got up and walked to the emperor's throne, raised his glass to the emperor, "This 'Moonlight River Sound' is taken from the famous line in Su Shi's previous and later "Red Cliff Fu": "The moon rises from the east On the mountain, wandering among the bullfights. The white dew crosses the river, and the water shines to the sky.', 'The river has a sound, and the bank is thousands of feet away. The mountain is high and the moon is small, and the water comes out'."

Yongqi smiled regretfully, and raised her head to look at the moon, "Whenever the moon is on the Dongshan Mountain at night, the bright moonlight shines on the calm lake water, and everything in the villa is silent, only the lake water is patting on the embankment, making a pleasant sound..."Moonlight River Sound', the moonlight in the sky and the sound of water in the world are indispensable."

When Wanxi heard this, she stretched out her hand to take Xiao Shiwu over, and while feeding Xiao Shiwu to eat meatballs, she leaned into Xiao Shiwu's ear and said a few words.

On the other side, Yongqi had memorized enough poems, and finally got straight to the point, "Tonight is the night of the Chinese New Year, but unfortunately there is no moon in the sky. This 'Moonlight and River Sound' is dim and dull."

Yong Qi glanced at the Empress Dowager as she said, "Although lunar eclipses are not uncommon, it is extremely rare for a lunar eclipse to coincide with the Mid-Yuan Night. The Mid-Yuan Night is originally a Buddhist Yulan Basin Festival, and it is the meaning of compassion." ...Tonight, it's a pity."

From the first word Yong Qi said, the emperor didn't pick up the wine glass for a long time. He just smiled and narrowed his eyes to stare at Yong Qi.When Yongqi said this, the emperor smiled faintly, "Yongqi, what exactly do you want to say? Do you still want to plead with me for the people in Yonghe Palace, don't you?!"

Yong Qi trembled, and hurriedly knelt down on the ground, "My son is just... God's will cannot be violated, the moon in the sky can only be compared with the Queen of the Palace, a lunar eclipse is the disappearance of the moon phase, it is a warning to the heavens!"

Because of Yong Qi's words, everyone's eyes turned to Wan Xi.

Pian Wanxi picked up a grape, lowered her head and tasted it quietly, with a faint smile on her face all the time, without any other expression on her face.

Xiao Shiwu suddenly clapped his hands and laughed, slipped off Wanxi's lap, and walked up to Yongqi, "Fifth brother is wrong, the moon is still there!"

Xiao Shiwu said, running roundly to the huge mercury mirror in the corner, pointing to the lantern made of the moon, "Fifth brother, look, the moon is not here, the moon was invited to come down to the world by us, Come here to be with our family!"

"Tonight, on the night of Zhongyuan, the moon also knows that Huang Ama is merciful, so the moon is willing to go down to the world to accompany Huang Ama to celebrate the festival!"
.
Xiao Shiwu is so small, with childish speech, plus he is round and cute, after saying such funny words, everyone present laughed.

The empress dowager smiled and said, "Look, you are just a little moon!"

Yong Qi was stunned in embarrassment, but how could she bear to lose to a child under the age of five in public? !

Yong Qi just laughed loudly, "Fifth Brother, you are indeed a child! Tong Yan Wuji, you can say this without any harm, but if adults think like this, then it is disregarding God's will!"

Xiao Shiwu raised her eyes innocently, looked at Yong Qi and smiled sweetly, "Why does Fifth Brother say that I am childish? Please enlighten me, what is wrong with what I said?"

Yongqi raised his eyebrows and raised his hand to the sky, "Shangshu says: the sun, moon, and stars are the heavenly clan, and Dai, river, and sea are the earthly clan. , how could anyone in the world be invited to be a guest at will?!"

Little Shiwu tilted his head and thought about it seriously, "The moon in the sky is sacred, but Huang Ama is the real dragon emperor. Can't the real dragon emperor invite the gods in the sky to descend to the realm?"

Xiao Shiwu said looking back at the emperor, and smiled coquettishly, "Besides, Huang Ama is the big white rabbit, that is the jade rabbit in the Moon Palace, and the incarnation of Taiyin Lord! If you say that no one in this world can invite you Move Taiyin Lord, but our Huang Ama is the only one who can do it!"
.
Xiao Shiwu's words reminded everyone that the emperor was born in the year of rabbit, and it was the [-]th day of July, and next month would be the emperor's Longevity Day. Xiao Shiwu's words were naturally the emperor's favorite.

Therefore, everyone also laughed, and they all echoed Xiao Shiwu's words.

Xiao Shiwu even took the opportunity to kowtow to the Empress Dowager, "Emperor Ma's mother gave birth to Huang Ama, and actually invited the Taiyin Lord from the sky to come down to the world!"

The empress dowager was so happy that she shouted repeatedly, "Oh my son, come here, come here, let the mother of the emperor hug you. It's a pity that you can say such a thing, it makes people look down on you Let go of your disposition, your fifth brother has lived so much in vain~~"

Xiao Shiwu cheered and ran to the Empress Dowager, threw his head into the Empress Dowager's arms, and acted like a baby.

Yongqi was left alone standing there, everyone laughed, but he was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do.

Especially the empress dowager's words hurt his heart the most.

The Empress Dowager's words may not have any other deep meaning, she was simply comparing the age difference between him and Xiao Shiwu, but... anyway, it sounded so painful that he couldn't breathe.

It turned out that in the eyes of the empress dowager, the 25-year-old him was really inferior to a child who was less than five years old?
.
"Looking at his distraught appearance, I want to ask him why he made such a fuss just now?" Yuqin tilted her head and whispered softly.

Wanxi seemed to have nothing to do with her, she still hung her head down to taste the grapes, then she turned her head and winked with Concubine Rong, "The grapes at your mother's house are really the best, I don't even want to eat, I just want to have a drink." Eat this in one breath and eat it to your heart's content."

Concubine Rong also laughed, "Although my uncle and brothers all moved to live in the capital, there are still offerings from the Western Regions every year. There is nothing special about these grapes. If the imperial concubine likes it, she will give it to her again." My brother has the opportunity to serve, and tell him to bring in all the things saved in the mansion!"

Wanxi smiled and nodded, she peeled a grape and put it in Yuqin's hand, "Look, sister, the peeled grape is round and white, doesn't it also look like the moon? But grapes are grapes, after all, they are ordinary products. Can't be the bright moon in the sky—"

Wanxi picked out the grape seed from the grape, "After all, it is because there is always such a hard core inside, which is too stingy and too hard."

Yuqin understood it, and smiled "Hey", "Who said it wasn't? The appearance was so sweet and juicy that people often forgot to guard against it, but ended up biting it down, and finally got their teeth broken... the front part is so sweet and juicy. All the sweet and juicy things that have been carefully managed are wasted."

Tonight, because Xiao Shiwu said so well, the emperor himself did not express his opinion.

Instead, the emperor seemed to change the topic, and issued a decree: "The left servant of the Ministry of War, Guan Bao, will be the censor of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate."

Yong Qi was also a little surprised, and before he could recover, there were already congratulatory voices around him.

He also got down the steps and happily returned the salute with everyone.

The emperor raised his eyes and stared at Yongqi, and then said, "Speaking of the moon in the sky, I worship the moon on August [-]th every year. Coincidentally, the little elder brother Yingyuan gave birth to you happened to be on August [-]th." Today is another auspicious day for Guanbao, so it is worth you to rejoice with Yingyuan and my little grandson with this happy news."

"Furthermore, I remember that E Ning has already reported Yuxi, and the day of giving birth is not far away. You are not in Beijing, and I miss you very much. After all, this is the first birth date between you and E Ning." My child...then I will not keep you, you rest for two days, and then go back to Beijing!"

Yong Qi was shocked!
"Returning to Emperor Ama, my son and minister came here to follow Huang Ama and Qiu Mulan! At this time, I have just arrived at the Summer Resort, and I have not yet arrived at Mulan. How can my son go back to Beijing like this?" Yong Qi quickly knelt down , "It doesn't matter if it's my son's elder brother's first birthday, my son has already celebrated him in advance. And E Ning, even though he is happy, it will not be the day of delivery after all... The son counts the days, just stay When she returns to Luan, she may not be there yet. Therefore, there is no need for my son to go back."

The emperor shook his head, "Yong Qi, you have pleaded with me for the people of Yonghe Palace several times, which shows that you are a filial son, and you attach great importance to the relationship between mother and child... The person in Yonghe Palace is in the capital, and your birth mother, Concubine Yu, is also in the capital; Your Fujin and Gege are still eagerly waiting for you to go back. Then I won't be able to keep you anymore."

"The matter of autumn is not as good as the affection between mother and child. Compared with the two, I know which is more important in your heart. Then let your younger brothers and nephews accompany this unimportant matter of autumn." That's it for me. You can rest assured to go back and serve your two mothers and take care of your two youngest sons!"

"Besides, Guanbao is your father-in-law now, and I always need someone to pass back his appointment to the capital. Naturally, no one is suitable for you, so you can go home at a gallop."

As the emperor spoke, he finally picked up the wine cup, "Yongqi, I've drank your glass of wine. Are you satisfied? Let's get back first!"
.
After the emperor said this, Yong Qi understood that there was no room for change.

He knelt down sadly.

But the emperor stopped him again, "There is one more thing, and I ordered you to go back to Beijing to do it."

Yong Qi's eyes lit up again.If it was Huang Ama who made arrangements for him and then asked him to return to Beijing, then his worries would not exist.

The emperor's eyes drooped, "Minister of Kulun Affairs, Sangzhai Doerji, the king of Kalka Tuxietu Khan, disregarded the imperial court's will to forbid contact with Eros, and privately traded with Eros in Zhangjiakou."

"Sangzhai Dorji, who raised the inner court since he was a child, has received a lot of kindness. After the Russian trade was stopped, it should be strictly banned. Today, he is the first to give money to the ticket, and he is deeply indebted to me. I have decreed that he will be placed in the King of Jing Everything in the mansion will be confiscated and entered into the official ranks."

The emperor raised his eyes and stared at Yong Qi again.

"Sangzhai Dorji's biological mother is a princess, and he himself is Dorogege, who is Doro's son-in-law. Therefore, it is better to check his family property and enter the government more carefully than others. Only check his personal belongings, but do not alarm The case of the princess and Dorogege. Therefore, I just sent officials to search, I am really worried, and I should send another prince to go."

"I'm thinking about it, now you are the leader in Nei Agoli. I will leave this matter to you."

Yong Qi clenched her fingers tightly in her cuffs, not wanting to show it in her expression, she hurriedly bowed her head and saluted, "I obey the order, I will do it when I return to Beijing."

The emperor summoned Yongqi to come forward again, and said in a low voice, "I sent people to Kulun Chasang Zhai for the matter of Dorji, and found out from his residence in Kulun the letters he had communicated with Beijing. Many people were involved. The king, the minister...it turns out that Sangzhai Dorji acted so boldly because he had someone in Beijing who partnered with him and promptly tipped him off."

The emperor's long eyes were slightly cold, "Yongqi, I will leave this matter to you. You must find out all the kings and ministers in Beijing who have colluded with Sangzhai Dorji one by one. Wait for me Back to Beijing, waiting for you to understand the answer."

Yong Qi tried her best to hold up a smile, raised her eyes to meet the emperor's eyes, "Hey! My son will definitely live up to Huang Ama's expectations."
.
After Yongqi left the "Moonlight Jiangsheng" island, she looked back at the lamp shadow under the dark night sky, couldn't bear it anymore, and cursed fiercely, "The matter of Dorji in Sangzhai must have been announced by Cheng Gunza." hair!"

Sangzhai Doerji was the county king of the Kalka Tuxietu Khan tribe, and later he became a prince with grace; he was also the son of a princess, Doro's forehead, and he fought with Oros in traditional Mongolian ports such as Kulun and Zhangjiakou. In terms of trade, no one will know about this except the Mongols.

With Sangzhai Dorji's identity and rank, no one else dared to report it. Only Cheng Gunzabu, whose identity and rank were both higher than Sangzhai Dorji's, dared to play!

Yong Qi sneered, "Sure enough, he is the concubine's good in-laws, so I'll keep an eye on him, even this little thing can be caught by him!"

Sangzhai Doerji was the son of a princess, so he was raised in the inner court since he was a child, and studied with a group of princes.Yongqi's use of her mother Concubine Yu is also a Mongolian condition, and she has always had a good personal relationship with Sangzhai Dorji.

——In the business of Sangzhai Dorji, he is also involved.

He is a prince and lives in the palace. Everything he owns can only be rewarded by Huang Ama, and he has no other ample money at hand.So he also naturally needs this money.

Originally, Yongqi took advantage of the fact that Concubine Yu was a Mongol, and tried her best to communicate with the princes of various Mongolian tribes, using cultivation as a force that she could rely on.But this time, Huang Ama actually asked him to personally preside over the inspection of Sangzhai Dorji's family property, and personally investigate those princes and ministers who partnered with Sangzhai Dorji. It is possible to offend the prince of Mongolia and the ministers of the king in Beijing!
This July [-]th, for others, may be the Buddha's merciful Yu Lan Basin; but for him, Yong Qi, only the door of hell is left...
.
The emperor cleaned up Yongqi between the banquets, and Wanxi was happy and at ease, not angry, let alone meddling.

On the contrary, she was still playing the Yuqin, stealthily looking at Yongxuan.

Because this day is also Yongxuan's birthday, it is a special day for Yongxuan.Wanxi also intentionally put Cui Huan by her side to serve her.

If Wanxi had her own heart, she wished she could point Cuihuan to Yongxuan on such a day.

But in Wanxi's heart, why doesn't she feel sorry for that child Qingzao?Therefore, these words, after all, it was not convenient for her to pick them all out face to face and make a decision to go.

The most important thing among these is Yongxuan's own heart.

For the sake of Cuihuan, Wanxi also had to wait patiently with Cuihuan, and when Yongxuan's heart was determined, the time to fulfill their good deeds would really come.
