The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 542
Since Guo promised to pay attention to dressing up, Yanhua looked at her less cordially.

After Guo promised finally ushered in the first opportunity to serve her bed, Yanhua also told her that she no longer had to go to Jingren Palace to take care of the two pomegranate trees.But obviously Guo promised not to care much about it anymore, to be favored once, it was enough for her to think about it for a long time.

Xiao Yu'er sent someone to dry the soil of the two dead pomegranate trees before, and checked carefully

The days went by at the end of May, and Fucha Gege was about to give birth, and Yanhua was more nervous than anyone else.Every day she sent someone to ask about the health and wellness, and if she had any good things, she would send them to Gan Xier.

However, Nuan Xin is the orthodox Fujin, and Yanhua always remembers this, so every time she asks people to visit Nuan Xin first, and then visit Fucha Gege.After all, there is an orderly hierarchy, and if she favors Fuchagege, she will have an ugly face after all, and she will more or less be made things difficult for Hongli by taking care of the backyard in the future.

At that time, the roster reported by the Ministry of Household Affairs had already been handed over to the emperor, so Yinzhen took Yanhua to watch it with him, saying that he wanted to choose a wife for Hongzhou, and that Hongzhou called her "sister and mother". After so many years, she should pay attention to it.

Yanhua looked at the roster, all of the graceful and graceful people were fourteen or fifteen years old, which made her sigh.I think she was only 13 years old when she participated in the talent show, but now more than [-] years have passed in the blink of an eye, she really looks old and youthful.

"What are you eating so much for?" Seeing the melancholy expression on her face, Yinzhen couldn't help but feel happy.He liked the way she showed her tender love to him when he was in the palace in the past, but unfortunately, after she entered the palace, she seldom showed her emotions like that.

Seeing her drooping her head in a muffled voice, he laughed more heartily: "It's just to choose wives for Hong Zhou and another emperor's nephew. You seem to be showing your temper by eating so much."

Yanhua rolled his eyes at him, thinking that he really got the advantage and acted like a good boy: "Why is the emperor pretending to be so confused, does he think that many beauties will enter the palace again, so he is so happy from ear to ear? Concubine I don't want to look at this thing, why is the emperor just pulling me to look at it?"

"Isn't this picking a wife for Hongzhou?" Yinzhen raised his brows and smiled happily, "Wen Yao doesn't want to go back to the palace to accompany me to read, so you can watch it with me when the time comes."

She shook her head and waved her hands, very resistant to this.Asking her to help the beauty pageant so that she can be sent to his dragon bed in the future, she felt that it was really cruel.He always pampered her, and she was really afraid that if she was careless and showed jealousy in front of those young ladies, it would really be disrespectful.

Yinzhen didn't care how much she resisted, and just said to himself: "I've already made a decision, and the selection will start in early August. Now that you are the master of this harem, you should share some worries for me..."

Yan Hua rolled his eyes at him angrily, her heart felt a little uncomfortable: "I'm still worried... Hmph, I'm already secretly happy, there are so many beauties dangling in front of my eyes, why should the Emperor be worried."

Yinzhen smiled instead of anger, and said with a smile, "Hongzhou's temperament is too ridiculous, and I don't know what kind of wife to choose for him. I asked Susu, and she said that as long as she has a better temper, she will be good." She thought it would be better if it was smoother. I think I should help him find a strong-tempered daughter-in-law, so that he doesn't want to do so many ridiculous things again, how about Chanchan?"

Yanhua didn't care about the taste anymore, but frowned and fell into deep thought.

She had heard from Concubine Yu more than once that Hong Zhou had tasted two sips of ink, the kind that was directly dipped into his mouth with a brush; she also said that Hong Zhou had eaten paper full of poems, and he really swallowed it raw. ; When he secretly went to attend Hongshi's funeral, he also secretly tasted the offerings; just two months ago, when the flowers were in full bloom, he even had someone pick a lot of fresh petals and stuff them into his mouth, saying that they smell so delicious, I don't know if it tastes sweet or not...

He does such absurd things several times a year.

When she was in the mansion before, Yanhua felt that this child was a bit weird, he had tasted ink before, didn't he?
"Well, Hong Zhou's curiosity is indeed a little bit heavier, it's a good thing to pick a wife who can control him, but I'm afraid she won't be able to control him." Yan Hua put away her petty temper and became worried together.Concubine Yu told her about Hong Zhou more than once, and every time she talked about melancholy, she sighed endlessly.Hongzhou grew up with Hongli and beside Yanhua since he was a child, so Yanhua is naturally very concerned about Hongzhou's affairs.

"Alright, when the emperor selects Yuexiu girls in early August, let the concubine accompany you to have a look, and choose a side Fujin for Hongli."

Yinzhen glanced at her sullenly: "If you pick them, you're right, but if you pick me, you'll look unhappy."

When Yanhua heard this, she couldn't help gnashing her teeth.This person is the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, okay?Is it really funny to tease her all the time like this?How could he not know the reason for her displeasure?Who would choose a few more concubines for their husband to compete with him?He is simply outrageous!

Even though she knew that Yinzhen was provoking her on purpose, she still couldn't help but get angry.I don't know if it's menstruation, she's been very irritable these few days, so seeing him pretending to be innocent, she doesn't plan to take care of it any more, and she salutes to him before leaving.

Anyway, it's very close to the No. [-] Ganxi Institute. She wants to go and see Nuan Xin and the Fucha family, and doesn't want to sulk here anymore.

Seeing that she was really angry, Yinzhen hurriedly held her back and refused to let her go: "Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore. But seriously, if I choose some more people to fill the harem, will Chanchan ignore me?"

At that time, she thought he was really joking with her, but it wasn't until later that she actually accompanied him to select the best girls, that she knew he was serious.It's just that at that time, how could she have noticed that there were so many thoughts hidden behind that smiling face?At that time, she only thought that he was still teasing her, so she just put on a dignified look, and nodded slowly: "Of course not. This harem is not just for the courtiers and concubines, besides, there are already so many beauties in it, how many more?" What's the matter?"

He looked at her for a long time, and finally smiled softly: "I really don't know what to do with you..."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there has been movement at the Second Ganxi Institute. Someone just came to report that Fucha Gege is about to give birth..." When Su Peisheng came in to report, Yinzhen was standing behind Yanhua and hugging her, bowing his head in the Something whispered in her ear.

When Yanhua heard this, she immediately pushed Yinzhen's hand away, and she was about to go to Ganxi Second Office.But Yinzhen paused and refused to move, he just said lightly: "If you want to go, go and have a look, I won't go."

Yanhua sighed softly: "You, why do you always put on airs in front of your children? Forget it, the emperor will approve the papers for a while, and the concubine's son will come over later to announce the good news to the emperor."

When Yan Hua happily ran to the No. [-] Ganxi Institute, the child had already been born, it was an older brother, and he was so cute and pink.

Seeing that Hongli was not there, she hurriedly reprimanded: "Why is Hongli still not coming back? It's the first time I am an Ama, so why is there no one there? Hurry up, go to Prince Yi's mansion and call him back!"

"Cha!" The eunuch took the order and hurriedly retreated.

When everyone was grinning happily to congratulate Yanhua, only Huang Gege's master and servant stood in the corner with a sullen face, with a look of jealousy...

After Yanhua left the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Wei Changan, who had been waiting outside for a long time, walked in. He motioned for Su Peisheng and others to retreat, and then approached Yinzhen and whispered: "Your Majesty, just now Prince Caiyi sent someone into the palace to bring this A secret letter."

"Well, let me see." Yinzhen asked Shisan to deal with many things, and he didn't know which one he asked this time.However, every time Shisan sent a secret letter, his face would be gloomy for a long time.

Sure enough, after reading the letter, Yinzhen's face darkened.

Wei Changan didn't know what was going on in his heart, so he knelt there silently and waited.

"Look at it too." After a long time, Yinzhen made a sound.He held the piece of paper and handed it in Wei Changan's direction.

Wei Changan hurriedly stood up, bowed and took it in his hand.He was illiterate at first, but after serving Yinzhen, he listened to Yinzhen's words and began to learn to read.He was honest and hardworking, and he was able to read and write characters very quickly. After studying for several years, he finally managed to learn a little bit of Manchu.

Therefore, there was a reason why Yinzhen valued him so much.

After reading the secret letter, Wei Changan couldn't help but gasped.To be honest, when Hongshi passed away last year, he also asked the dark guard to monitor Twelve's mansion, and found no abnormality, only the eunuch who was serving Hongshi personally disappeared innocently, but he also disappeared before the dark guard went. Understand.

Yinzhen never made an order to restore Hongshi's clan, so Wei Chang'an thought that he still hated Hongshi in his heart.He never thought that the original emperor asked Prince Yi to investigate this matter.

Not long after Hongshi left, Lao Ba and Lao Jiu left one after another.Wei Changan also suspected that it was Yinzhen who secretly sent someone to poison them to death in a fit of anger.But after he saw Yinzhen's various reactions, he was sure that it had nothing to do with Yinzhen.After following the investigation of the person who died in the imperial hospital, he couldn't help crying out for the emperor.

In this life, the emperor has been wronged too much.

"Your Majesty, I have a question." Wei Changan hesitated for a while after reading it.

"Say."

"The fourth elder brother has absolutely no motivation to do this. After all...the third elder brother had already left the palace at that time, even if the fourth elder brother had thought about it, there was no need to kill the third elder brother, so...the slave thinks this matter It was definitely not ordered by the fourth elder brother."

It's not that he is partial to Concubine Xi in his heart, but because he has watched Hongli grow up, and he understands Hongli's temperament somewhat, and he doesn't believe that Hongli can be so stupid.Prince Yi also said in the secret letter that the personal eunuch who was serving Hongshi died strangely after leading the matter to Hongli. It can be seen that the eunuch said so with premeditation.Prince Yi, who personally interrogated the eunuch, spoke more convincingly, but the meaning behind what Prince Yi said was obviously biased towards Hongli.

Yinzhen looked at him blankly for a while: "I hope you can do things as before, don't be biased or partial. After finding out the truth, I will naturally make a decision." It's not that he doesn't believe in Hongli, but that he People who don't need to be influenced by emotions do things for him.It's not just once or twice that Wei Changan has been like this. If he continues to let it go, it will only get worse.

Wei Chang'an's body trembled slightly, and after a long while of stiffness, he raised his eyes slightly, took a deep look at the emperor, and then solemnly kowtowed: "Tah! This servant respectfully obeys the emperor's instructions!"
