Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2553 Nine Volumes 35 Heralds Another Far Away
Taking advantage of the joy that has not yet dissipated in the first month, when Wanxi was alone with the emperor this night, she asked with a smile, "In the past, when the head of the inner court was happy, he had to report it to the middle palace. Sir, do you think the Ministry of Internal Affairs should report this matter now?" Give me?"

The emperor raised his eyebrows, and carefully looked at Wanxi's expression from left to right, "What's the matter? How could I not report it to you?"

"Besides... what is Yuxi?" The emperor even reached out to caress Wanxi's belly, "Could it be that you...?"

Wanxi quickly reached out to cover the emperor's mouth, "No, it's not me! Little Seventeen is made of ginseng, how can I move my body?"

The emperor felt a little regretful, and withdrew his hand, "Then why is Yuxi! It's not that they didn't report it to you, but where can I find Yuxi's letter?"

Wanxi burst out laughing.

She didn't take it seriously, she was just teasing the emperor to talk.

Between the two husband and wife, if even the little interest of jealousy and jealousy is gone, it will be relatively boring.

It is a couple who have been married for many years. Occasionally, they have to be fine but deliberately find some small things, make small noises, small complaints and small angers for a while, then it will be interesting.

The emperor felt a little bit in his heart, so he squinted his eyes and asked, "Why, someone claims to be happy again?"

Anyway, there was an old story about Dai Jia's false report of meeting happiness, and the imperial physicians only judged whether there was a happy pulse based on the menstrual events of the concubines.Therefore, the imperial physicians also go when they often look away.

Wanxi nodded, "Isn't it~~ It is said that when I was in autumn last year, Mr. Chang had already attended bedtime. Mr. Chang came back around October, so counting the month, in this first month, Mr. Chang was already attending bedtime. There should be some movement. It should be prepared earlier."

The emperor's expression was already numb.

Wanxi sighed softly, "Mr. Chang Gui is after all the junior of the empress dowager's mother's family, and has a high status. Besides, she was young and only entered the palace. This is the first child, so she should be extra sympathetic. It is me who is the empress." Isn't it the concubine's duty to fulfill what the lord said?"

The emperor stared at Wanxi, carefully discerning the look in Wanxi's eyes.

After a while, she also relaxed, hugged her arms, and snorted, "Okay, you can go. It depends on whether she can give birth after the expiration of October~"

"If you can't give birth, then I will ask you to have a child..."

Wanxi couldn't hold back anymore, she rolled into the emperor's arms with a smile.

"Is the Lord going to punish me for my crime?"

The emperor stretched out his hand and gave Wanxi a brain-bending blow, "That's the longevity of the lord. During the day, the lord held a banquet with the queen mother to celebrate with the queen mother. After drinking two too many drinks, the queen mother will be called Chang Guiren." Send Grandpa back to the bedroom."

"Don't you understand the Queen's mother's thoughts? Besides, that day is the Lord's long life, and it is also the day of the Emiang's suffering. No matter what the Lord does, he will be ashamed to take the Queen's face on that day. Then put Chang The nobleman will stay, anyway, after flipping through the cards, the Empress will be relieved."

Wanxi played with the emperor's braid with her fingers, "I thought, it's the same thing."

The emperor was a little annoyed, "But the Queen's mother deliberately angered you again in front of you? Or, is it that Mr. Chang is showing off in front of you with his unrestrained speech?"

Wanxi hurriedly hugged the emperor, "don't worry, sir, no~~ I know that my master is hanging in the southeast, and the queen's mother never wants to spoil my master's happiness in the first month. She treats me well these days; Chang Guiren Well, after all, she’s still a little girl, she’s just 20 years old this year, isn’t she?”

The emperor narrowed his eyes and stared at Wanxi, "Then who chewed on her tongue? What good does it do her to say that?"

Wanxi shook her head with a smile, "Don't worry about it, I just heard the movement, so I thought that this child might be my first child after I was promoted to the imperial concubine, so I have to fulfill this responsibility anyway, That’s why I asked my father about it.”

"If there is no such thing, then just pretend that I didn't ask."

The emperor snorted softly, stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of Wanxi's nose, "Still refusing to say it, and still hiding it for that tongue chewer? My lord knows it!"

The year in the palace usually ends on the 25th day of the first lunar month.After the filling day is over, the year is considered over.

On the 26th day of the first lunar month, the emperor went to the Changchun Immortal Hall and drove from the Changchun Immortal Hall in person with the Empress Dowager, and sent him back to the Changchun Garden from the Old Summer Palace.

During this process, Lan Guiren and Chang Guiren also helped the Empress Dowager to pack things together, and the emperor took special care of a piece of Ru porcelain that he had only given to the Empress Dowager during the Chinese New Year this year to "give incense".

"Out of incense" is the incense burner, just because it is more refined and its shape is more complicated.The piece of Ru porcelain that the emperor gave to the Empress Dowager is made of curly-leaf lotus flowers. It changed the elegant and beautiful style of Ru porcelain, and the whole lotus flower is rich and plump, precious and rich.

As people get older, they prefer to look at lively and festive objects like this. The empress dowager cherishes them very much, and they put them on the kang table in the bedroom, and they can look at them every day when they get up and sleep.

Originally, the little eunuch Ruyi wanted to go forward to hold it, but she staggered a little as soon as she held it, and asked the emperor to stop it.

The emperor cast a glance at Lan Guiren, "This lotus flower is an elegant vessel, and it would be wrong for the servants to hold it."

Lan Gui hurriedly stepped forward, "Going back to the emperor, how about I hold it in my body? These days, I serve in front of the Empress Dowager, and I have held it in my body several times. I do it by myself. Sure."

The emperor also nodded, "Okay, let's get started."

... As a result, Lan Gui slipped his hands and dropped the incense to the ground and broke it.

Lan Guiren knelt down in fright, trembling like willow leaves in the wind.

The empress dowager didn't pay attention to it for a while, and the emperor coldly issued an order, "Smash the empress dowager's beloved, Lan nobleman, and I can't keep you anymore. Come, pass on my will, and Lan nobleman will be deposed as a permanent presence."

When the empress dowager rushed back from outside after hearing the letter, the little eunuch Ruyi who delivered the decree had already disappeared.

The empress dowager sighed, "Emperor! Isn't she just an incense, why is it... Besides, she is not sincere, because the shape of the incense is so fat, so it corresponds to the spices used in these days. It's greasy, and the soot stains left behind will be a little slippery. This is a matter of spices, and it really can't be her fault."

The emperor also sighed when he heard this, "Well, no matter what, she was the one who broke it after all. The son's will has been passed on, so let's wrong her for now."

The Empress Dowager was also helpless, she turned her head to stare at Lan Changzai who was prostrate on the ground, and could only shake her head.

The daughter of the good Niu Hulu family has been in the palace for 11 years. She was a nobleman at the beginning of entering the palace, but after going around for 11 years, she is still in the same place. It is because the score has been lowered and promoted, and then dropped again. ah!
Why doesn't she want to flatter this girl?But this girl just can't lift her up!

Fortunately, there is another noble person at this meeting.The child had just entered the palace and was young. Everything was brand new and had a bright future.

The Empress Dowager also sighed, "Forget it. Tell her to learn a lesson. Go back to your bedroom and close the door to think about where you went wrong. When you figure it out, talk to the emperor."

Because of this incident, the Empress Dowager went back to Changchun Garden, so naturally she could no longer take Lan Chang with her.

After all, Yong Chang has been serving the empress dowager for a long time and has more experience, so he returned to the empress dowager again.
.
After the matter was settled, the emperor set off to visit the Tailing Mausoleum.

Yuqin taught Lu Changzai a lesson for a few days, and was relieved when she knew that Chang Guiren's incident never happened.

Today, when the two sisters were sitting idle, Yuqin said, "I don't even believe Yuse's words, but you still believe it, and even asked the emperor... It really made me worry."

Wanxi smiled, "Sister, don't worry. In fact, these days, the emperor has been troubled by the incident in the southwest, plus the death of Shun Ying and He Jia, and the serious illness of the imperial concubine Wen Hui... I also use this matter It's just a trick to act coquettishly in front of the emperor, so as to help the emperor relax."

Only then did Yuqin breathe a sigh of relief, but she turned around embarrassingly, "Anyway, I have grown up so much, and I have never seen a 40-year-old woman act like a baby~~ This time, I can see that I can live gone."

Wanxi blushed, raised her fist and lightly beat Yuqin's shoulder, "Then I'll act like a baby with my sister, and tell her to laugh at me~~"

The two laughed for a while, Yuqin embraced Wanxi, and sighed faintly.

"Sister, what's wrong?" Wanxi asked.

Yuqin shook her head, "I suddenly remembered that we came here when we were young. When we first entered the palace, you were 14 years old and I was 17 years old; but now, we are both in our 40s~"

"Sister..." Wanxi hugged Yuqin, "How many years have you sneaked away in the middle, but it's just how many years we sisters have spent together. Sister, do you still regret it?"

Yuqin smiled and shook her head, "It's worth it."

The two cuddled together for a long time, Yuqin said, "This time Lan Chang is deposed, but Yong Chang Zai will benefit."

"Well, I know." Wanxi said slowly, "Yongchang has been actively serving me for the past few years in the palace. I care about her relationship with me. Although it's not that I don't understand her intentions, but I don’t want to owe her anything; even though I can’t give her what she wants, but I can still protect her a bit, I will give her back some points.”

Yuqin also agrees, "Since Yurui left, we have broken the bridge with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Indeed, there are many news that are always sent, and they are fast and accurate. No matter what her intentions are, at least she is indeed a helper." When we arrive, we will go a lot.”

"That's right. Seeing her lose power in front of the empress dowager, I can't see it, and it's as if I didn't see it. Besides, this harem, even if we have passed the age of fighting, we don't have that kind of thought, but the harem is The harem, if there is no battle, I am afraid it is not a harem."

"So these young people naturally have to fight. They are still young, their status is still low, and they have no heirs yet... If you want to win a place in this harem, you can only fight."

Yuqin also nodded, "Isn't that right, what's more, the emperor is already at this age. To put it bluntly, it's hard to say whether the emperor can have children at this age; besides, the emperor is the most important person to maintain health. Now I don't want to go to such a toss - so the opportunities left for them are getting less and less. These young children are even more desperate to fight for it."

"Sister is right, even if they are not always there, someone else will go." Wanxi lowered her eyes lightly, "No one who can survive in this harem is simple. Always choose between, then I would rather be forever."

Yuqin took a deep breath, "You're right. After all, Yongchangzai is the same as us, with a Chinese surname. No matter how high her Ama's official position is, her family's banner is also covered by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If so, her future However, if it is the two of Niu Hulu's family... with the empress dowager behind them, the status of those two will naturally rise. We are not for ourselves, but also for ours Children, be on guard against them."
.
Just after the joy of the first month, bad news came from the southwest in February.

Ming Rui, who led the army to conquer the barbarian knot just now, went deep alone and had no support, so he rushed to the death, was seriously injured, and died by hanging himself.

The cousins ​​Mingrui and Fu Ling'an, as young military officers, both made meritorious service in the Northwest. After winning meritorious service for themselves, they both perished on the battlefield in the Southwest, which is Ping Burma.

When the news spread back to Beijing, no matter whether it was the emperor or the ninth master Fu Heng, everyone was heartbroken.

Mingrui's personal death is minor, and what's more important is that the entire imperial army is still in Yunnan, and little Burma still cannot be pacified.

The emperor looked around the front court.

Over the past few decades, the imperial court has used several major military forces. Zhaohui who pacified Huibu has passed away, Bandi who pacified Galdan has passed away, and Cheng Gun Zhabu who pacified Amur Sana is going to guard Karl for the imperial court. The tribes of Ka and Mongols stabilized the northern frontier... In front of the emperor, only the commander who pacified Dajinchuan, Jiuye Fu Heng, remained.

At this time, the war in Myanmar was stalemate, and the situation was similar to that of Dajinchuan back then.Originally, the imperial court had the absolute advantage, but it was because of the local geographical advantage that the imperial court's army frequently failed.

The emperor already had a candidate in mind, but he couldn't bear to speak out.

Jiu Ye's family just lost a son, a daughter, a wife, and a nephew...

The emperor thought about it again and again, and ordered Fu Heng to be the manager, Ali Gun and Agui to be the deputy generals, and Shu Hede to be the counselor.Except for Fu Heng, the rest of the generals, counselors and ministers left for Yunnan immediately.

Although the ninth master, Fu Heng, has not left the capital yet, he has already made preparations in his heart since he received the emperor's order.

At the same time, the emperor decreed that Fu Long'an, the fourth concubine, was appointed Minister of the Ministry of War and learned to walk at the military plane.
.
After returning to the mansion, Fu Heng rarely gathered Jiufujin, Ruxiang and Zhuanxiang together, and said that the whole family would eat together in one place from then on.

The three wives and concubines, Yunxiang, Jiufujin, and Zhuanxiang deliberately avoided them in the past, and Master Jiu was unwilling to let them stay together.

But today, Master Jiu had already ordered such an order, causing the three women to look at each other with heavy hearts.

They are all almost 50 years old, and the competition for favor has receded into the past; now all three are experiencing the pain of losing their children.

Zhuanxiang is better, after all, Fuling is about to give birth, which is a good thing; both Jiufujin and Ruxiang have just lost their children.

At this time, what the three of them were most afraid of was actually losing Jiu Ye.The three of them stood up as soon as they heard this, their hearts couldn't stop being nervous.

"Didn't your majesty not ask me to go to Yunnan? Although my master has assumed the post of military affairs, but if you are the head of the court, you need me on the battlefield, but don't you need me in the court?" Jiu Fujin asked anxiously .

Master Jiu just smiled lightly, "Let's sit down and eat first. Whether to go or not, it depends on God's will and the emperor's order."

"Anyway, I haven't gone yet, so the family will sit together and have a lively meal, isn't it good?"

The three women sat down apprehensively, who was in the mood to eat.

Jiu Ye also got up, went to the table of the other children and grandchildren, and personally served two grandsons, Fengshen Jilun and Fengshen Guoermin, with vegetables.

Fujin Minyi from Fukang'an hurriedly saluted, "Master, it's better to be a daughter-in-law."

Master Jiu nodded with a smile, but focused on Fukang'an, "Is it ready to eat? If it is finished, come with my father. I have something to tell you."

Fukang'an hurriedly got up and said, "It's finished," he bowed to Jiu Fujin and the other three to leave, and obediently followed Master Jiu to the outer study of the front house.

Master Jiu sat down, and Fukang'an obediently stood beside him.Master Jiu smiled, and pointed to the chair, "Sit down, let's talk about what's on our minds, don't hold back."

Fukang'an sat down, but half of his body was owed, and he didn't dare to sit down.

Master Jiu looked at such a son with relief, and nodded, "After getting married, your temper has indeed restrained a lot. Looking at it this way, you look like a man."

Fukang'an tried his best to smile, but his heart was full of bitterness.

In Ama's eyes, it seems that he has grown up and calmed down, but for him, he has let go of all hope, and his heart is already numb. mood to go~
Master Jiu stared at his son in front of him, and sighed softly, "It is said that you are the elder brother who looks the most like your father, but in the past, no matter in the family or outside, it is a pity that your temperament is completely different from that of your father. In fact, they all said wrong Now, father, I was not what I am now; at your age, father's naughtiness is no less than yours."

Later... also because of the loss of a person, he was forced to grow up suddenly, learned to endure, and shouldered the responsibility on his shoulders.

"Qilin Bao, I want to thank you for my father." Jiu Ye's eyes were warm and he smiled, "Thank you for obeying my father's almost unreasonable order, and getting married so smoothly, which made my father let go of this trouble." Worry."

If it wasn't for Qilinbao's cooperation this time, if his day to go to Yunnan is just around the corner, how can he feel at ease leaving home, especially this unruly son?In particular, the person in the son's heart is the unattainable golden branch and jade leaf... If he is not in Beijing, if this child causes any trouble, what will Lan Pei and the others do?
Do you want to embarrass Jiu'er again?No, his son's infatuation has already made Jiu'er quite embarrassed.

"If this is the case, the emperor ordered my father to go to Yunnan immediately, so my father can go there with peace of mind. Because my father knows that in addition to having your brother to support the family, there is also you who can help your brother go."

Master Jiu smiled, hesitated for a moment, and said, "...It's a pity that you just got married. If you can see that you have a child of your own, then you can go to Yunnan for your father, and you will feel more at ease."
.
At this moment, the father and son were talking, but Fu Kang'an couldn't tell that Ama had already intended to entrust her.

This kind of feeling always makes people feel a little bad-after all, on the battlefield in the southwest, his family just lost an older brother and a cousin!

Fukang Anteng stood up, "Ama, tell your son to go! In ancient times, Mulan joined the army instead of his father. Even if Mulan is a girl, the son can go to the military camp instead of his father!"

Master Jiu couldn't help laughing, stood up and patted his son on the shoulder, and pushed Fu Kang'an to sit down.

"Stupid son, you have such filial piety, I am very pleased to be my father. But Mulan served in the army instead of her father. What she replaced was just the responsibility of a soldier or a general; but for my father, it is a little bit job."

"How can you, a fifteen-year-old elder brother who has just been awarded the position of bodyguard and has never been on a battlefield, be able to replace this position of strategy? Even if you have this kind of filial piety, as a father, you dare not give it to me. The military affairs of the imperial court are such a trifling matter!"

Fukang'an slumped down, "Then... my son can accompany Ama to the Yunnan military camp! My son can serve Ama while serving the country!"

Master Jiu shook his head with a smile, "You have such a heart, and I am very pleased for my father. It's just... this time, you don't need to go. You stay at home and stay with your mother and aunts."

"Your elder brother has just been appointed by the emperor as Minister of the Ministry of War, so he has to arrange many things in the rear for this Yunnan battle. He can't take care of him at home for the time being. Everything will be left to you."

The more Fukang'an listened, the more flustered he became. He lowered his head and clenched his fists, deeply distressed by his powerlessness.

"Ama...do you really have to go? With your current rank, when will the court affairs leave you?"

Master Jiu laughed again, "Silly son, why don't you know your current rank as a father, and why don't the emperor understand the title of a father? But the emperor still confers on father as a manager, which means that the emperor has already There is no choice."

"At this time, this is the responsibility that must be shouldered by the father; since there is no one else, then the only thing to do is to fight for the father."

"This is the person who is the leader of the dynasty, this is a subject who has been favored by the emperor for decades, and he should be loyal and responsible for the country and the emperor."
.
Hearing that Lord Jiu was once again appointed by the emperor to be a manager after the Battle of Dajinchuan, Wanxi also sat in the bedroom, dazed for a while.

Back then, she encouraged Master Jiu to go to the Great Jinchuan battle; but this time, she couldn't find the mood she had back then.

After all, it has been 20 years since the Battle of Dajinchuan. At that time, Master Jiu was only in his 20s, and he was in the prime of life and full of vigor; but at this time, Master Jiu was already nearly fifty years old.

What's more, those accidents happened at home, even Iron Man's heart was broken.With such a mood, I rushed to the military camp as far away as Yunnan... Wanxi's heart was hanging high, and she felt a pain like pulling her internal organs.

"Ernie..." Xiao Shiwu came in from the outside and greeted Wanxi.

Seeing Wanxi's dazed look, Xiao Shiwu came up to hold Wanxi's arm and shook gently, "What's wrong with Enie, is there any place in your body that feels uncomfortable?"

The son's call brought Wanxi back to her senses.Wanxi smiled forcefully, "No, Er Nie is distracted."

Wanxi looked down and saw the booklet in Xiao Shiwu's hand, she couldn't help raising her eyebrows, "Yo, where did you get it?"
