matchmaking
Songyin stood in Baoxia with her sleeves tucked up for a while, when she heard the sound of broken porcelain coming from Sanxi Hall, her heart tightened and she hurried out of the Yangxin Gate.At this time, it's better to stay far away, don't poke the ashes.The status quo is indeed depressing. I hope that nothing will come. It seems that God intends to oppose the emperor.
However, the emperor's unhappiness is the greatest success for Prince Yu. He is satisfied and treats others much more kindly than usual.As for the Empress Dowager, the grandeur of the birthday banquet is not in her eyes, and this news is the best congratulatory gift.While explaining "the emperor is still young", she was proud of herself.Qian Qiu was enthroned to receive court congratulations on the same day. The double happiness on the surface was due to her birthday and the addition of a new granddaughter. In fact, she was overjoyed with a deeper meaning.
Song Yin looked at the sky filled with fireworks and the splendid palace. Behind the singing and dancing, the emperor's loss was hidden.No heir is a flaw, no matter how well the world is governed, it will end up making wedding clothes for others. There is a storm lurking in this Forbidden City, and it will break out one day.
For her, there is only one word a day anyway, busy.Although she doesn't need to do those things by herself, she will be exhausted physically and mentally if she comes to ask for instructions from one to the next, and then to the other from time to time.
After going through the customs of entertaining officials and clansmen, the rest is time to have fun.Because of the heavy rules in the palace, there is not much fun, the most important thing is to listen to the opera.There are several theaters in the Forbidden City, and the Empress Dowager prefers Shufangzhai, saying that the place is large and it is easy to move around when there are many people.
Thousands of people, from eating and drinking to going to the toilet, messed up a lot of things, and Song Yin dared to breathe a sigh of relief when they all sat down in front of the stage.Looking back at her, Ama, she spent all night playing cards with the same year yesterday, and today she is depressed, leaning against the pillars in the porch and yawning one after another.She went over and called out, "Go back to the value room, there is nothing important here, I can handle it later. You are in such a situation here... it doesn't look good."
Shu Ming glared at her, "Your wings are stiff, do you think you, Ama, have embarrassed you?" After speaking, he smiled, "Then you watch carefully, I will take over your shift at dawn." He went obliquely to the House of Internal Affairs.
There are drums in my ears, beating thud-thump-thump, and the scholar lady with heavy make-up on the stage is singing softly.Song Yin doesn't know much about theater, so she just watches the excitement, especially likes to watch clowns, she will laugh out loud when she stumbles or gets into a difficult situation.
Just as she was laughing vigorously, she heard a light cough behind her. She hurriedly turned her head and saw the high and mighty prince standing in a shadow, like a lonely soul, without saying a word, and turned to go to a darker place.
Now Songyin couldn't laugh anymore, and wondered what he wanted to do again?Every time she saw him, she was worried that others' eyes would fall into the eyes of the emperor, which would cause the emperor to have a grudge against her.She hoped not to have any contact with him from now on, but he always appeared by her side, not far or near, and she was a little confused about how useful she was to him as the little chief of the House of Internal Affairs.But now that she came, she didn't dare not say hello, looking around, there was no one she wanted to shy away from, so she turned around and followed quietly.
Prince Yu stopped under a camphor tree, the distant light shone from behind, making his face blurred.Song Yin narrowed her eyes, tried hard to distinguish his expression, and squatted down, "Sixth Master, are you looking for me?"
He hummed, "Today's errands were done well, I will ask Lafayette to reward you later."
Song Yinxin said that it would be nice if you didn't bother me, and reward me?But he said in his mouth: "Thank you, Master Liu, this is what I should do. I am Lafayette and your good servant."
He listened for a moment, "I think so too, so I want to reward you even more."
Song Yin said a few perfunctory words, and asked with a sigh: "You came to me for this?"
He said, "Not really. Do you still remember what I told you in the lane last time?"
She blindly pretended to be confused, "What's the matter? Please forgive me for being forgetful. I'm just trivial all day long. I'm too old to use my brain."
Prince Yu was not very happy, it was a big taboo not to remember the master's words, it could be seen that she did not see him as the banner master at all.She pretended to be stupid, so she simply said it clearly, and he said with his hands behind his back: "It's true that the nobleman forgets things a lot. I mentioned Rongshi earlier, so I don't remember it?"
Song Yin let out a long sigh, "I remembered, Liu Ye said he would give me a promotion."
This person is not ambiguous at all for his own benefit.But he liked her straightforwardness, nodded and agreed: "I keep what I say. As for that matter, how about it? I have been thinking about it for a long time, what are your plans?"
Songyin cursed him secretly, and reluctantly said: "I still say that, I don't think it's good to say so."
Prince Yu frowned slightly, she thought he was here to discuss with her?She probably hasn't figured out the stakes in it yet, and he's not in a hurry. It's not a problem after all if the cow presses the head forcibly without drinking water.He sighed softly, and said helplessly: "Let's just let it go, after all, you are acting for the emperor, and I can't control you."
When he said that, Songyin was scared. The flag of the Tong family was all in his hands. In the future, the future of the younger brothers and sisters would also have to pass through him. If he kept his fingers tight, the Tong family would decline, and the generations would decline. go down.He relied on this to be so confident.
She drooped her shoulders, "Don't be angry, I thought about it, but it's not impossible. Or I might as well marry him, it's easier to talk like this." In the end, she got a little emotional, and as for whether Rong Shi could be accepted He wooed her, anyway, she did as he said, and she had nothing to do if it didn't work.
Unexpectedly, he felt dissatisfied again, "I don't remember saying that that day."
Song Yin recalled that he wanted her to learn from Concubine Zhuang in Unofficial History, and seduced Hong Chengchou with sex, so that he would surrender.When people's hearts are converted, he still wants to take her back as a concubine, so he has taken all the advantages in the world!
She smiled awkwardly, "You are too joking, and I am not such a person."
When he was about to discuss her sweetheart with her, he made a mistake and saw Rongshi not far away.He immediately beckoned, "Cao Cao Cao Cao will be here, just in time."
Song Yin turned her head to look, and saw that slender figure walking towards them, the lake-blue body was like a pool of water, the tassels on the chest were drooping, and the waist belt was coiled around. How can one imagine the capable and sophisticated appearance? What a headache he is at home!
He has a pair of romantic and dexterous eyes, his eyes fluttered across her face, and he cupped his hands to salute Prince Yu, "It just happened to pass by here on patrol, and I didn't expect to meet the two of you. There are so many gnats in the dark, why don't you open it up?" place to speak?"
Song Yin was really embarrassed, it seemed that she was going to be forced to go to the Liangshan Mountain, Prince Yu planned to give her a strong medicine, so that she had no way out.Forget it, let's do as he said, anyway Rong knows his intentions, just talk to him in detail later.
Prince Yu glanced at her, "There are some things that are not good to talk about in public. A while ago, Shu Ming and I mentioned Song Yin's marriage, and I promised to be her matchmaker. People under my banner must take things to heart. And we have to find someone reliable, so that we don't disgrace the talents of our manager Xiao Tong. After thinking about it, there is no one close to me, only you. I remember that you haven't engaged yet, so I'll let you guys get a line, first Looking at everything, if we deal with it, we can achieve a good marriage.”
Rong Shi had a flattered expression, "Master Liu really misses me so much, what should I say... Thank you Master Liu for your kindness, but I'm not very learned, I'm afraid I won't be good enough for Mr. Tong."
"It's nothing." Song Yin blurted out, "Second Master is fine, I see it for real."
Rong Shi wanted to shirk at first, but he laughed when he saw her say that.Prince Yu's smile froze on his face, but it was only for a blink of an eye, and he quickly piled it up again, whitewashing: "That's good, the rarest thing is mutual consent. Leaving aside the identity, the family background of the two families is similar, and the university Scholars are not pedantic people, I think they are very suitable."
Song Yin listened to them coming and going, feeling very passive.Besides, it is not good to stay in the dark and make people misunderstand and plot something.He said: "Master Liu, go back to Shufangzhai, I have to be on duty, I'm afraid the people below will not be able to find me. Thank you Master Liu for today's matter, I will report back to Ama when the Empress Dowager's thousand years are over, and see what I mean, Ama I can't give an answer today, I dare not make up my own mind, anyway, I'm going to worry about Liu Ye, the heart of Liu Ye is really like a Bodhisattva."
In the end, it was both flattery and sarcasm. Prince Yu naturally heard it, and held his lips indifferently, "I also have an addiction to being a matchmaker, so don't think I'm too busy." He clapped his hands and smiled, "A man is a real man. Marrying a family and establishing a career, you can never be a bachelor all your life. In this Forbidden City, apart from the concubines and maids, no one calls you the commander in chief. After thinking about it, Song Yin is the most suitable. He will take over the old father's class in the future, which is different from your official position. Comparing the comparison, I have searched in four or nine cities, and there is no such right listing."
Rong Shi pushed the boat along, Wen Tun said with a smile: "I'm afraid I will humiliate Mr. Tong. If this is the case, no matter whether it succeeds or not, I will definitely invite the sixth master to come to the east to have a feast some other day. The sixth master must appreciate the face."
Prince Yu said hello, turned around and walked towards the brightly lit place, the eunuch who accompanied him greeted him from a distance, the corners of his mouth sank, even the brows were smudged with light frost.
Only Song Yin and Rong Shi were left at the other end. Song Yin felt embarrassed, but Rong Shi frowned, and murmured: "Why did you think of being a matchmaker for me..." Looking down at her, "You are here To discuss this?"
Song Yin's awkwardness immediately dissipated, "What else could it be?"
"I don't see it," he said, "it's not easy for a matchmaker to hide here to feed the mosquitoes?"
Song Yin responded casually: "Maybe it's because I'm afraid of falling into other people's ears. If it doesn't work, the prince will be embarrassed."
He touched his nose, "Then what do you think?"
Song Yin was still calm, "I don't have any ideas."
"How to explain to him?"
"If you don't explain anything, just say it's inappropriate after two months!"
She walked towards the bright place, and she was bitten by some kind of insect under the collar, which was painful and itchy.Touch it with your hand, and you will rise up, and pinch it again, and you will cry out.
Rong Shi heard her cry out of nowhere, not knowing what was wrong with her, so he hurried over to check and asked her what's wrong?She said with a bitter face, "I was bitten by a bug, right under the cow's tongue."
Cow's tongue is a common name for a false collar, which must be buttoned up by officials when they are on duty.When not in use, it can be disassembled at will, and it is not attached to the clothes.She was very anxious, afraid that the insect would go down the neckline, and if it bit it repeatedly, it would be fatal.
"Show me quickly, what bit me." She pulled him over, not caring about the difference between men and women, and untied the cow's tongue to let him see, "Is it Miss Smelly? Ah, is it a gnatfly? "The more I talked, the more frightened I became, almost trembling.
Songyin has done great things, but she also has a girl's common problem - fear of insects.Let alone beetles and mole crickets, even crickets and cicadas are afraid of her.Seeing a worm, he was instantly out of his wits.The most vivid memory is that in the bamboo garden behind the house, scholars and refined scholars played piano and music accompanied by the bamboo wind. As a result, she was unlucky, and a fleshy worm as thick as a finger fell on her shoulder.She screamed and jumped on the spot, and the children nearby scattered away. No one rescued her, but the nurse who came rushed to shake her off with a stick.Since then she has been terribly afraid of all insects, to what extent, whether real or not, even imagination alone can scare herself into a quiver.
There was no one nearby, only Rong Shi, who was about to cry, stomping her feet anxiously, "It's biting me!"
It was the first time that Rong Shi was so close to a woman, so he was inevitably in a hurry.The fragrance from her neck rose and rushed straight to his forehead, making him dizzy, looking at the light, there was a large swelling on his slender and smooth neck, and there was a bright red dot in the middle, which was the result of insect bites battlefield.
"Let me squeeze it for you to see if there are any mouthparts left." He said a little scary, but such a large piece means that the bug is poisonous, maybe it is like a wasp, the bee left, leaving the tip of its tail up.
Songyin was very frightened, the steady little manager was gone, she was just an ordinary girl.She said in a repeated voice: "Hurry up, hurry up...don't keep your mouth shut, I can't stand this!"
She was on the verge of crying and moved her neck towards him.Rong Shi reached up with both hands, found a good angle and squeezed hard, without mouthparts, squeezed out a bubble of water.
Songyin was so painful that her eyes were full of tears, she asked: "How is it? Did you see it?"
He said no, "The poisonous water came out, so it shouldn't matter."
Song Yin hated Prince Yu even more, it would be bad for this person to appear, he is a disaster star, dealing with him will bring bad luck for a lifetime.
Suddenly, he felt that he wiped something on her neck, and it was cool for a while.She turned her head and hummed, "What?"
He shook his finger, "Just wipe some spit on it."
Song Yin buzzed in his ears, and looked at him in horror, "Are you spitting on my neck?"
He looked innocent, "We did the same when we were bitten by insects when we were young, and the swelling will subside after a while."
She was about to faint, feeling pain and nausea, pointing her trembling fingertips at him, "You...you..." She couldn't utter a word.
He smiled sarcastically, "You're welcome, it's something I can do."
Song Yin blushed, unable to express her suffering.Who asked her to ask him for help? He pinched the poisonous water for you and wiped your saliva by the way. It was all kindness. Why do you blame him?But she felt uncomfortable and felt awkward all over.She has never been treated like this before. Girls are all delicious. Before going to bed, they smoke their clothes and mattresses, and apply powder when they get out of the bath. It is hard to imagine that they will have such an unappetizing experience.
She was not easy to get angry, frowned and said: "Who is going to thank you? You should say hello to me first, so that I can prepare."
Rong Shi found out that he was disgusted by her, and he was not happy, "I don't treat you as an outsider, and don't even think about changing it to someone else!"
Song Yin pouted, "You're too ignorant." After speaking, she turned and left.
Rong Shi snorted, "What happened just now, will you stay with me?"
She was on the middle road, there were already eunuchs and maids coming and going, they all looked sideways when they heard his words.Song Yin was so ashamed that she slammed "No way", and didn't dare to delay, so she stepped up and fled.
Since then, there have been occasional rumors that Manager Xiao Tong and the Commander of the guards are dating, and the two are chatting and laughing, and behave intimately.
People in the palace love to gossip, not only the maids gossip behind their backs, even the eunuchs also have this habit.Most of the news about the Forbidden City came from these people. Although there were explicit orders to forbid it, they couldn't stand the leisurely life in the palace. Once the quiet days passed for a long time, they tried to find some entertainment.Talking about you and talking about him is the cheapest thing to do. If you keep your mouth open, nothing but eating is just for fun.
Song Yin's heart is still big, she didn't pay attention to these things, and continued to do her work diligently.But she and Rong Shi behaved intimately, she thought about it afterwards, probably because he caught someone's eyes when he showed her the wound.It is actually very bad to have such rumors in the palace. This is a place that must be cleared up. I have heard of maids and eunuchs eating in pairs before. Since the emperor came to power, this kind of thing has been completely eliminated. If there are rumors, check it out. It is to be shot.
She was a little worried, afraid that the emperor would ask her to question him, and if he saw Rongshi, he would move far away.He called her several times, but she pretended not to hear.Later, he seemed to be discouraged, and he didn't say a word when he met her. He crossed his hips angrily, and watched her go away with fixed eyes.
In fact, she also felt guilty. After all, he didn't offend her, and she didn't take it to heart after making a fuss that day. In the end, it was for his own good, so don't make any demands from Prince Yu later, so that he would not be able to prevaricate.But sometimes when I think about it, that prince is also very interesting, the relationship is usually mutual, if she can win over Rongshi, how can it be said that the emperor can't win her over through Rongshi?Such determination is all due to the Tong family's flag registration in his hand.You can't make people willing to work for you, can it last for a long time only by threats?Let her catch a chance, without others instigating rebellion, she will rebel first.
Her Ama is still as stable as Mount Tai, "This is good, far away, not too hot. Remember not only the sixth master is watching, but the emperor is also watching!"
Song Yin replied yes, "Ama, do you see that the two brothers are still competing?"
Shuming's cigarette pipe and pot tapped on the stool leg, "This kind of open and secret fighting, can we stop until we die? So we have to be neutral, do what the prince orders, and do what the emperor orders. It's best not to let go."
Speaking of the emperor's ascension to the throne, it should be regarded as a mistake.It is said that before his death, the late emperor announced that the three important ministers would enter the palace, ready to draft an imperial edict to pass on the throne at any time.The princes were not allowed to enter the bedroom without a will, and they all knelt in the front hall behind a yellow curtain to listen to the letter.When the first emperor was alive, he didn't establish a crown prince, and before his death, he was probably also attached to the human world, and he didn't move Chrysostom until it was too late to speak, and he couldn't even make a sound by then.Anyway, what she heard was rumors, saying that the late emperor ordered the minister who assisted the government affairs to assist the new emperor, but when it came time to appoint the heir emperor, he couldn't come up with it, heir, heir, heir for a long time.All the ministers listened to him, but they didn't understand the reason. The former emperor passed away for the last time after heirs, so "si" became "four", and the throne passed to the current emperor.The empress dowager was dissatisfied because of this, the late emperor had agreed with her when he was still alive that Yan Suike would become a great leader in the future, but he did not expect the result to be like this.Although both were born to her, she never liked the emperor. A shaman wife once made the calculation for her.Therefore, the emperor has been taken care of by a nanny since he was a child. Like the sons of those concubines, he spent his youth in Gandong No. [-].Ten fingers are not the same length, and it is normal for parents to be partial.But it is rare in the world to bring down one and support the other like the Queen Mother.
Songyin filled another pot of smoke for Ama, and remembered the matter of the second room, "How are Changge and Biehong doing now?"
Shuming shook his head, "Don't mention it, my uncle is also a bastard, he talks about his aunt and grandma. You go and see, just this kind of style, the father is bad, the mother is bad, and the nephew is like an uncle. There is no cure. Chang Ge's daughter-in-law Hiding in her mother's house and not coming back, the whole family counted, went to the big matchmaker at the beginning to reason, and finally beat the matchmaker."
Song Yin was dumbfounded, "Isn't the matchmaker Biehong's uncle?"
"That's right." Shu Ming said, "That foolish father smashed up my sister's house, beat up Shunfu's father and mother, and Shunfu came to your second uncle crying, saying that he had never seen such an unreasonable family. .”
Song Yin shook her head, amazed, there are indeed all kinds of people in this world, and even a god would not be able to understand the way of thinking.
Shuming summed it up with a sentence, "Girls have to think carefully about finding a husband's family, and sons can't rush to marry a wife. Raising a son is not good for harming one's own family, and raising a daughter is not good for harming other people's family."
Song Yin just laughed, her Ama is getting old, and she likes to talk about these old mother's orders all day long.She stood up and said: "The Guangchu Department will take inventory in the past two days. Let's figure it out. I will go to the guards of the Qianqing Palace to get the key. I want you to open the warehouse together with the household department and the clan mansion. Go back tomorrow and don't drink." , don’t play mahjong either, I have important things to do later.”
The Guangchu Division's inventory is extremely strict, and the most important department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is the Guangchu Division.This secretary is the emperor's personal treasury, which is divided into six warehouses, storing gold, silver, pearls, jade, coral, agate and gemstones of various colors, and the guards are the strictest in the palace.Two shifts are arranged every day, with 25 people in each shift on duty day and night, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs is required to make monthly statistics of income and cashiers.Shuming knew how powerful he was, and said with a smile, "Your Mama has been a job all your life, and you need to mention something? Just take care of your own affairs and leave me alone."
Song Yin smiled and planned to go to the post office of the Imperial Book Office to do some business. Just as he stepped out of the door, a Sura came up to him and called Qian'er back, "Master Guo of Zhongcui Palace sent someone to invite the little manager, go and have a look." Bar!"
Master Guo is the one who doesn't want to serve the bed. Although she has a weird temper, she is very appetizing to the emperor.After that, I turned over the sign again and became a nobleman, and now I can be regarded as a holy family member, and the monthly regulations and fees have been raised.
Because Songyin is a woman, those masters and eunuchs and mothers can't talk to each other, and they prefer to go to her directly, making her doctor's order like broken reminders.She sighed, "I'm about to wear out a pair of layered bottoms this month... Did you ask me, what's the matter?"
Su La said: "The person who came didn't say anything, just said that the little manager has gone."
Since she had to go, she explained to her subordinates and went straight to Zhongcui Palace.
Guo Gui has a low status and can only live in the side hall, and she doesn't care about it. People with no enterprising spirit can live and work in peace and contentment wherever they go.Song Yin entered the door and squatted for a blessing, "Little master told me something?"
Guo Guiren was very kind to her because of her contribution in persuading her last time. When he saw her, he hurriedly invited her in and arranged for her to sit in the rose chair.Song Yin watched her send the person close to her to the door to watch the wind. She didn't know what she was thinking, but she couldn't sit still.She came over and stood next to her, hesitatingly said: "Miss Tong, I haven't had my period for two months."
Song Yin was startled, which meant that nine times out of ten she was lucky.
"Is there Imperial Doctor Xuan?"
Guo Guiren shook his head, "My mother-in-law said that I can't announce it. If there is something wrong, I'd better ask Mr. Tong for advice first."
Song Yin knew their concerns, children are too precious now.She said: "I know it in my heart, little master, don't worry. But are you sure? If you can, I will go back to the emperor."
Guo Guiren rubbed the corner of his clothes and said, "I've never been pregnant before, so I can't tell for sure. It's just that the chest is very swollen, and I always feel sick when I eat."
Song Yin is a layman and knows nothing about it.No matter what, if you have it, it is always right to report back first.
She comforted her, "Don't worry, little master, eat and drink well, don't treat yourself badly. I'll pass the news to Yuqian, and I'll ask Long Live Lord to make a decision anyway."
Guo Guiren sent her out, and she said: "You stay here." She deliberately raised her voice to call the eunuchs in the palace, "These screens are full of midges, no wonder my master can't sleep well at night. I will go to the office to get the fine gauze." , the window drawers are covered with heavy paste. It's hot, smoke the handles before going to bed to repel insects, don't be lazy." This is for other concubines in the palace, and sure enough, the people listening to the news at each door moved and retreated one after another. into the hall.
Songyin came out of Zhongcui Palace and went up Dongyi Long Street, entered Jinghemen and entered Qianqing Palace, and asked someone to send a message to the imperial court. The little eunuch blinked and stuck out his tongue, "Wait a minute, Lord Long Live is furiously reprimanding Tan Zhangyin .” Asked why, the little eunuch was ambiguous and couldn’t explain clearly.
She stood under His Majesty Dan and turned her head to look at the Qianqing Palace. The palace was too deep and she couldn't hear what was said inside.The emperor has his own confidantes, but who he trusts more is undoubtedly Lu Run.To a certain extent, Tan Rui's power is equivalent to overhead, and it may not be long before the position of the palm print will be handed over to Lu Run.
Waiting here, I don't know when it will be the first time, so I simply pass through the Yuehua Gate, before the emperor wants to eat, he will return to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
In the past, Guanglu Temple was responsible for the meals of the imperial court, but it was gradually transferred. Guanglu Temple only provided food for sacrifices, and all the food for the inner court was assigned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.The emperor's eating and drinking is a major matter, and it cannot be solved by ordinary people with a few dishes and one soup.Like internal meals, there are meat bureaus, vegetarian bureaus, snack bureaus, meal bureaus, and stove bureaus.Long live God consumes a lot of money for a meal, 53 dishes for light meal (breakfast) and 75 dishes for dinner.It's not that Long Live God has such a big belly, it's just to feed his eyes.
When Song Yin entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the dining room was arranging vegetables in the hall. Lu Run watched from the side, and the cloth eunuch reported the names of the dishes one by one, and shouted in a sharp and crisp voice: "Sea cucumber with spinal cord, bird's nest and three delicacies." One piece of shredded duck, one piece of gourd Daji's wings, one piece of hanging pig..."
There are only two meals in the palace all the year round, and this meal is already considered dinner, so the long table covered with yellow silk cloth is full of various dishes.It was rare for Songyin to come in during the meal, and it happened to check the errands of these cooks and cooks. After looking around, there was nothing to be picky about, which was very good.
Lu Run tucked his hands and smiled, "Master Tong is here to inspect?"
She said no, "Just now I went to Qianqing Palace to ask to see Lord Longevity, and Lord Longevity is busy, so why not come here and wait."
He is a capable person, very good at observing words and expressions, anticipating something, so he asked: "Where are you from?" Song Yin pointed to the northeast, and he frowned and smiled, "Is it the Yonghe Palace? Master Tong, go to Master Hui's place to have a look The princess is gone?"
She shook her head, Concubine Hui is very comfortable now, even though she gave birth to a daughter, Long Live Lord was not happy at first, but after seeing the child a few times, he gradually became more distressed.After all, flesh and blood relatives, since they are waiting to see their children, they can't treat them badly. The promise made at that time has been fulfilled, and now Concubine Hui has been named Concubine Hui, she is already satisfied.
Song Yin glanced around, "I'm coming from Zhongcui Palace, Master Guo sent someone to look for me earlier, so I went over."
"Master Guo?" Lu Run thought for a while, "Is that Master Guo who refuses to sleep with him?"
Song Yin said yes, "It's her."
"What happened?"
Because he is a person close to the emperor, there is nothing to hide, so he rolled the trumpet in his hand and whispered in his ear: "Master Guo seems to be pregnant. I didn't dare to tell others, and I didn't ask the imperial doctor. Let me go back and forth first." Mine. I think it's not a trivial matter, and Lord Long Live should be informed. As for how to set up files in the respect room and imperial hospital, I will follow the instructions of Lord Long Live."
The meaning of this is very clear, because there have been lessons from several young masters who were pregnant and had a slippery tire before, and everyone will be more or less afraid in their hearts.The existence of Prince Yu cannot be avoided, his tentacles must have penetrated deep into the inner court, as long as there is any disturbance, he will know it immediately.Song Yin was really worried that it was enough for Mrs. Xi to happen once, and she didn't want to be caught in a dilemma again.Therefore, it is better than anything else to keep quiet and sit quietly.
After Lu Run thought it over, he also thought it was feasible. After the emperor moved to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he patiently waited for him to finish his meal before reporting back.The emperor didn't seem very happy, but it's always good to see hope.He tucked his lips with a handkerchief, drooping his dark eyelashes, thought for a while and said, "I'll turn over her green card tonight, and then I'll call the imperial doctor to ask for her pulse. If she's really pregnant..." He looked at Song Yin, "I hand her over to you, can you keep her safe for me?"
This point was not in Song Yin's preparation, she just wanted to spread the word, at least be prepared before Prince Yu.Unexpectedly, after all the calculations, the matter still fell on her shoulders. It can be seen that the tigers in Dongshan cannibalize people, and the tigers in Xishan can also eat people.Only now did she realize how difficult it was for her Amma in the past ten years. Surviving in the cracks not only depends on her brain, but also depends on luck.
But what room do you have to bargain with the emperor?He is obviously asking you, but he is actually giving you an order.Song Yin had no choice but to heave his waist and said: "Long live God trusts this slave, so I should try my best. But I really dare not guarantee that a woman is pregnant."
Fearing that the emperor would get angry, Lu Run took the first step and said: "Long Live God sees Master Tong as a capable person, but he forgot that she hasn't married yet. Let a girl take care of the pregnant woman, afraid that Master Tong will be powerless. Long Live Lord, please be safe and don't be impatient. I will make a decision after seeing it clearly at night. If she is really pregnant, it will be enough to send more people to protect Master Guo. No matter how bad it is, it is not impossible to restrain her feet openly and protect her secretly."
God, Song Yin is so grateful to him for helping her out at this time.If Guo Guiren is handed over to her, even if this hot potato scalds her to pieces, she will have to continue.What are the consequences of catching it?It was her fate that the child landed safely, and if something bad happened, it would be the responsibility of dying without a place to bury her, which she really couldn't bear.
Fortunately, the emperor listened to Lu Run's words very much, frowned and thought about it for a long time, and finally relaxed, and sighed slowly: "Forget it, it's really hard for you to say that. You did a good job of not saying anything when you got the news. I know yours." Loyalty. You are still young and you have a lot to learn, so I can't bear to be too harsh on you. Then do as Lu Run said, and when things are settled, everything will be considered in the long term."
Song Yin bowed her body in response, and slowly let go of the stone in her heart.But after a short pause, the emperor suddenly turned his head and looked at her, "My son heard a rumor that the sixth master has made a match for you and Rongshi, is there such a thing?"
Song Yin raised his eyes in a daze, "Yes, they said that Rong Shi and I are both grown up, so we can match each other and let us look around."
A smile appeared on the corner of the emperor's mouth, "How are things going?"
At this time, she didn't follow Prince Yu's order, at least in the eyes of the emperor, it was comforting.She pursed her lips and smiled, "Rongshi and I have a mediocre friendship, and when we suddenly mentioned this, we were both a little embarrassed. The slave didn't think about that, so he didn't dare to promise Liu Ye right away."
But the emperor said: "I look at it and feel that it is a good match. Rong has been by my side for many years, and I can see her character and conduct. If you get married, it will be considered a match made in heaven. In the future, I will bring a big gift with you when you get married."
Song Yin didn't expect the emperor to say that, it seems that she and Rong Shi are going to join forces abruptly.
She bowed her hands in embarrassment, "The servant only wants to serve the Lord Long Live, and I haven't considered my own affairs for the time being. It's best to be alone at this time. When I have a family, I have too much to worry about. I owe the emperor's favor."
The emperor smiled slightly, "That's exactly what Rong Shi said." He turned to look at Lu Run, "The last time Rong Shi came in to talk, he seemed to be chanting these same words."
Lu Run frowned slightly, but smiled on his face, "Master Rong and Master Tong are dedicated to serving the master, and the world can learn from their loyalty."
The emperor caressed the jade belt on his waist with his hand down, and said slowly: "Although that is the case, the important events of life cannot be delayed. I hope that everyone around me will be well, and that they will have no worries before they can accomplish great events."
Songyin understood the meaning of his words, so Nuonuo could only say yes.

matchmaking
Songyin stood in Baoxia with her sleeves tucked up for a while, when she heard the sound of broken porcelain coming from Sanxi Hall, her heart tightened and she hurried out of the Yangxin Gate.At this time, it's better to stay far away, don't poke the ashes.The status quo is indeed depressing. I hope that nothing will come. It seems that God intends to oppose the emperor.
However, the emperor's unhappiness is the greatest success for Prince Yu. He is satisfied and treats others much more kindly than usual.As for the Empress Dowager, the grandeur of the birthday banquet is not in her eyes, and this news is the best congratulatory gift.While explaining "the emperor is still young", she was proud of herself.Qian Qiu was enthroned to receive court congratulations on the same day. The double happiness on the surface was due to her birthday and the addition of a new granddaughter. In fact, she was overjoyed with a deeper meaning.
Song Yin looked at the sky filled with fireworks and the splendid palace. Behind the singing and dancing, the emperor's loss was hidden.No heir is a flaw, no matter how well the world is governed, it will end up making wedding clothes for others. There is a storm lurking in this Forbidden City, and it will break out one day.
For her, there is only one word a day anyway, busy.Although she doesn't need to do those things by herself, she will be exhausted physically and mentally if she comes to ask for instructions from one to the next, and then to the other from time to time.
After going through the customs of entertaining officials and clansmen, the rest is time to have fun.Because of the heavy rules in the palace, there is not much fun, the most important thing is to listen to the opera.There are several theaters in the Forbidden City, and the Empress Dowager prefers Shufangzhai, saying that the place is large and it is easy to move around when there are many people.
Thousands of people, from eating and drinking to going to the toilet, messed up a lot of things, and Song Yin dared to breathe a sigh of relief when they all sat down in front of the stage.Looking back at her, Ama, she spent all night playing cards with the same year yesterday, and today she is depressed, leaning against the pillars in the porch and yawning one after another.She went over and called out, "Go back to the value room, there is nothing important here, I can handle it later. You are in such a situation here... it doesn't look good."
Shu Ming glared at her, "Your wings are stiff, do you think you, Ama, have embarrassed you?" After speaking, he smiled, "Then you watch carefully, I will take over your shift at dawn." He went obliquely to the House of Internal Affairs.
There are drums in my ears, beating thud-thump-thump, and the scholar lady with heavy make-up on the stage is singing softly.Song Yin doesn't know much about theater, so she just watches the excitement, especially likes to watch clowns, she will laugh out loud when she stumbles or gets into a difficult situation.
Just as she was laughing vigorously, she heard a light cough behind her. She hurriedly turned her head and saw the high and mighty prince standing in a shadow, like a lonely soul, without saying a word, and turned to go to a darker place.
Now Songyin couldn't laugh anymore, and wondered what he wanted to do again?Every time she saw him, she was worried that others' eyes would fall into the eyes of the emperor, which would cause the emperor to have a grudge against her.She hoped not to have any contact with him from now on, but he always appeared by her side, not far or near, and she was a little confused about how useful she was to him as the little chief of the House of Internal Affairs.But now that she came, she didn't dare not say hello, looking around, there was no one she wanted to shy away from, so she turned around and followed quietly.
Prince Yu stopped under a camphor tree, the distant light shone from behind, making his face blurred.Song Yin narrowed her eyes, tried hard to distinguish his expression, and squatted down, "Sixth Master, are you looking for me?"
He hummed, "Today's errands were done well, I will ask Lafayette to reward you later."
Song Yinxin said that it would be nice if you didn't bother me, and reward me?But he said in his mouth: "Thank you, Master Liu, this is what I should do. I am Lafayette and your good servant."
He listened for a moment, "I think so too, so I want to reward you even more."
Song Yin said a few perfunctory words, and asked with a sigh: "You came to me for this?"
He said, "Not really. Do you still remember what I told you in the lane last time?"
She blindly pretended to be confused, "What's the matter? Please forgive me for being forgetful. I'm just trivial all day long. I'm too old to use my brain."
Prince Yu was not very happy, it was a big taboo not to remember the master's words, it could be seen that she did not see him as the banner master at all.She pretended to be stupid, so she simply said it clearly, and he said with his hands behind his back: "It's true that the nobleman forgets things a lot. I mentioned Rongshi earlier, so I don't remember it?"
Song Yin let out a long sigh, "I remembered, Liu Ye said he would give me a promotion."
This person is not ambiguous at all for his own benefit.But he liked her straightforwardness, nodded and agreed: "I keep what I say. As for that matter, how about it? I have been thinking about it for a long time, what are your plans?"
Songyin cursed him secretly, and reluctantly said: "I still say that, I don't think it's good to say so."
Prince Yu frowned slightly, she thought he was here to discuss with her?She probably hasn't figured out the stakes in it yet, and he's not in a hurry. It's not a problem after all if the cow presses the head forcibly without drinking water.He sighed softly, and said helplessly: "Let's just let it go, after all, you are acting for the emperor, and I can't control you."
When he said that, Songyin was scared. The flag of the Tong family was all in his hands. In the future, the future of the younger brothers and sisters would also have to pass through him. If he kept his fingers tight, the Tong family would decline, and the generations would decline. go down.He relied on this to be so confident.
She drooped her shoulders, "Don't be angry, I thought about it, but it's not impossible. Or I might as well marry him, it's easier to talk like this." In the end, she got a little emotional, and as for whether Rong Shi could be accepted He wooed her, anyway, she did as he said, and she had nothing to do if it didn't work.
Unexpectedly, he felt dissatisfied again, "I don't remember saying that that day."
Song Yin recalled that he wanted her to learn from Concubine Zhuang in Unofficial History, and seduced Hong Chengchou with sex, so that he would surrender.When people's hearts are converted, he still wants to take her back as a concubine, so he has taken all the advantages in the world!
She smiled awkwardly, "You are too joking, and I am not such a person."
When he was about to discuss her sweetheart with her, he made a mistake and saw Rongshi not far away.He immediately beckoned, "Cao Cao Cao Cao will be here, just in time."
Song Yin turned her head to look, and saw that slender figure walking towards them, the lake-blue body was like a pool of water, the tassels on the chest were drooping, and the waist belt was coiled around. How can one imagine the capable and sophisticated appearance? What a headache he is at home!
He has a pair of romantic and dexterous eyes, his eyes fluttered across her face, and he cupped his hands to salute Prince Yu, "It just happened to pass by here on patrol, and I didn't expect to meet the two of you. There are so many gnats in the dark, why don't you open it up?" place to speak?"
Song Yin was really embarrassed, it seemed that she was going to be forced to go to the Liangshan Mountain, Prince Yu planned to give her a strong medicine, so that she had no way out.Forget it, let's do as he said, anyway Rong knows his intentions, just talk to him in detail later.
Prince Yu glanced at her, "There are some things that are not good to talk about in public. A while ago, Shu Ming and I mentioned Song Yin's marriage, and I promised to be her matchmaker. People under my banner must take things to heart. And we have to find someone reliable, so that we don't disgrace the talents of our manager Xiao Tong. After thinking about it, there is no one close to me, only you. I remember that you haven't engaged yet, so I'll let you guys get a line, first Looking at everything, if we deal with it, we can achieve a good marriage.”
Rong Shi had a flattered expression, "Master Liu really misses me so much, what should I say... Thank you Master Liu for your kindness, but I'm not very learned, I'm afraid I won't be good enough for Mr. Tong."
"It's nothing." Song Yin blurted out, "Second Master is fine, I see it for real."
Rong Shi wanted to shirk at first, but he laughed when he saw her say that.Prince Yu's smile froze on his face, but it was only for a blink of an eye, and he quickly piled it up again, whitewashing: "That's good, the rarest thing is mutual consent. Leaving aside the identity, the family background of the two families is similar, and the university Scholars are not pedantic people, I think they are very suitable."
Song Yin listened to them coming and going, feeling very passive.Besides, it is not good to stay in the dark and make people misunderstand and plot something.He said: "Master Liu, go back to Shufangzhai, I have to be on duty, I'm afraid the people below will not be able to find me. Thank you Master Liu for today's matter, I will report back to Ama when the Empress Dowager's thousand years are over, and see what I mean, Ama I can't give an answer today, I dare not make up my own mind, anyway, I'm going to worry about Liu Ye, the heart of Liu Ye is really like a Bodhisattva."
In the end, it was both flattery and sarcasm. Prince Yu naturally heard it, and held his lips indifferently, "I also have an addiction to being a matchmaker, so don't think I'm too busy." He clapped his hands and smiled, "A man is a real man. Marrying a family and establishing a career, you can never be a bachelor all your life. In this Forbidden City, apart from the concubines and maids, no one calls you the commander in chief. After thinking about it, Song Yin is the most suitable. He will take over the old father's class in the future, which is different from your official position. Comparing the comparison, I have searched in four or nine cities, and there is no such right listing."
Rong Shi pushed the boat along, Wen Tun said with a smile: "I'm afraid I will humiliate Mr. Tong. If this is the case, no matter whether it succeeds or not, I will definitely invite the sixth master to come to the east to have a feast some other day. The sixth master must appreciate the face."
Prince Yu said hello, turned around and walked towards the brightly lit place, the eunuch who accompanied him greeted him from a distance, the corners of his mouth sank, even the brows were smudged with light frost.
Only Song Yin and Rong Shi were left at the other end. Song Yin felt embarrassed, but Rong Shi frowned, and murmured: "Why did you think of being a matchmaker for me..." Looking down at her, "You are here To discuss this?"
Song Yin's awkwardness immediately dissipated, "What else could it be?"
"I don't see it," he said, "it's not easy for a matchmaker to hide here to feed the mosquitoes?"
Song Yin responded casually: "Maybe it's because I'm afraid of falling into other people's ears. If it doesn't work, the prince will be embarrassed."
He touched his nose, "Then what do you think?"
Song Yin was still calm, "I don't have any ideas."
"How to explain to him?"
"If you don't explain anything, just say it's inappropriate after two months!"
She walked towards the bright place, and she was bitten by some kind of insect under the collar, which was painful and itchy.Touch it with your hand, and you will rise up, and pinch it again, and you will cry out.
Rong Shi heard her cry out of nowhere, not knowing what was wrong with her, so he hurried over to check and asked her what's wrong?She said with a bitter face, "I was bitten by a bug, right under the cow's tongue."
Cow's tongue is a common name for a false collar, which must be buttoned up by officials when they are on duty.When not in use, it can be disassembled at will, and it is not attached to the clothes.She was very anxious, afraid that the insect would go down the neckline, and if it bit it repeatedly, it would be fatal.
"Show me quickly, what bit me." She pulled him over, not caring about the difference between men and women, and untied the cow's tongue to let him see, "Is it Miss Smelly? Ah, is it a gnatfly? "The more I talked, the more frightened I became, almost trembling.
Songyin has done great things, but she also has a girl's common problem - fear of insects.Let alone beetles and mole crickets, even crickets and cicadas are afraid of her.Seeing a worm, he was instantly out of his wits.The most vivid memory is that in the bamboo garden behind the house, scholars and refined scholars played piano and music accompanied by the bamboo wind. As a result, she was unlucky, and a fleshy worm as thick as a finger fell on her shoulder.She screamed and jumped on the spot, and the children nearby scattered away. No one rescued her, but the nurse who came rushed to shake her off with a stick.Since then she has been terribly afraid of all insects, to what extent, whether real or not, even imagination alone can scare herself into a quiver.
There was no one nearby, only Rong Shi, who was about to cry, stomping her feet anxiously, "It's biting me!"
It was the first time that Rong Shi was so close to a woman, so he was inevitably in a hurry.The fragrance from her neck rose and rushed straight to his forehead, making him dizzy, looking at the light, there was a large swelling on his slender and smooth neck, and there was a bright red dot in the middle, which was the result of insect bites battlefield.
"Let me squeeze it for you to see if there are any mouthparts left." He said a little scary, but such a large piece means that the bug is poisonous, maybe it is like a wasp, the bee left, leaving the tip of its tail up.
Songyin was very frightened, the steady little manager was gone, she was just an ordinary girl.She said in a repeated voice: "Hurry up, hurry up...don't keep your mouth shut, I can't stand this!"
She was on the verge of crying and moved her neck towards him.Rong Shi reached up with both hands, found a good angle and squeezed hard, without mouthparts, squeezed out a bubble of water.
Songyin was so painful that her eyes were full of tears, she asked: "How is it? Did you see it?"
He said no, "The poisonous water came out, so it shouldn't matter."
Song Yin hated Prince Yu even more, it would be bad for this person to appear, he is a disaster star, dealing with him will bring bad luck for a lifetime.
Suddenly, he felt that he wiped something on her neck, and it was cool for a while.She turned her head and hummed, "What?"
He shook his finger, "Just wipe some spit on it."
Song Yin buzzed in his ears, and looked at him in horror, "Are you spitting on my neck?"
He looked innocent, "We did the same when we were bitten by insects when we were young, and the swelling will subside after a while."
She was about to faint, feeling pain and nausea, pointing her trembling fingertips at him, "You...you..." She couldn't utter a word.
He smiled sarcastically, "You're welcome, it's something I can do."
Song Yin blushed, unable to express her suffering.Who asked her to ask him for help? He pinched the poisonous water for you and wiped your saliva by the way. It was all kindness. Why do you blame him?But she felt uncomfortable and felt awkward all over.She has never been treated like this before. Girls are all delicious. Before going to bed, they smoke their clothes and mattresses, and apply powder when they get out of the bath. It is hard to imagine that they will have such an unappetizing experience.
She was not easy to get angry, frowned and said: "Who is going to thank you? You should say hello to me first, so that I can prepare."
Rong Shi found out that he was disgusted by her, and he was not happy, "I don't treat you as an outsider, and don't even think about changing it to someone else!"
Song Yin pouted, "You're too ignorant." After speaking, she turned and left.
Rong Shi snorted, "What happened just now, will you stay with me?"
She was on the middle road, there were already eunuchs and maids coming and going, they all looked sideways when they heard his words.Song Yin was so ashamed that she slammed "No way", and didn't dare to delay, so she stepped up and fled.
Since then, there have been occasional rumors that Manager Xiao Tong and the Commander of the guards are dating, and the two are chatting and laughing, and behave intimately.
People in the palace love to gossip, not only the maids gossip behind their backs, even the eunuchs also have this habit.Most of the news about the Forbidden City came from these people. Although there were explicit orders to forbid it, they couldn't stand the leisurely life in the palace. Once the quiet days passed for a long time, they tried to find some entertainment.Talking about you and talking about him is the cheapest thing to do. If you keep your mouth open, nothing but eating is just for fun.
Song Yin's heart is still big, she didn't pay attention to these things, and continued to do her work diligently.But she and Rong Shi behaved intimately, she thought about it afterwards, probably because he caught someone's eyes when he showed her the wound.It is actually very bad to have such rumors in the palace. This is a place that must be cleared up. I have heard of maids and eunuchs eating in pairs before. Since the emperor came to power, this kind of thing has been completely eliminated. If there are rumors, check it out. It is to be shot.
She was a little worried, afraid that the emperor would ask her to question him, and if he saw Rongshi, he would move far away.He called her several times, but she pretended not to hear.Later, he seemed to be discouraged, and he didn't say a word when he met her. He crossed his hips angrily, and watched her go away with fixed eyes.
In fact, she also felt guilty. After all, he didn't offend her, and she didn't take it to heart after making a fuss that day. In the end, it was for his own good, so don't make any demands from Prince Yu later, so that he would not be able to prevaricate.But sometimes when I think about it, that prince is also very interesting, the relationship is usually mutual, if she can win over Rongshi, how can it be said that the emperor can't win her over through Rongshi?Such determination is all due to the Tong family's flag registration in his hand.You can't make people willing to work for you, can it last for a long time only by threats?Let her catch a chance, without others instigating rebellion, she will rebel first.
Her Ama is still as stable as Mount Tai, "This is good, far away, not too hot. Remember not only the sixth master is watching, but the emperor is also watching!"
Song Yin replied yes, "Ama, do you see that the two brothers are still competing?"
Shuming's cigarette pipe and pot tapped on the stool leg, "This kind of open and secret fighting, can we stop until we die? So we have to be neutral, do what the prince orders, and do what the emperor orders. It's best not to let go."
Speaking of the emperor's ascension to the throne, it should be regarded as a mistake.It is said that before his death, the late emperor announced that the three important ministers would enter the palace, ready to draft an imperial edict to pass on the throne at any time.The princes were not allowed to enter the bedroom without a will, and they all knelt in the front hall behind a yellow curtain to listen to the letter.When the first emperor was alive, he didn't establish a crown prince, and before his death, he was probably also attached to the human world, and he didn't move Chrysostom until it was too late to speak, and he couldn't even make a sound by then.Anyway, what she heard was rumors, saying that the late emperor ordered the minister who assisted the government affairs to assist the new emperor, but when it came time to appoint the heir emperor, he couldn't come up with it, heir, heir, heir for a long time.All the ministers listened to him, but they didn't understand the reason. The former emperor passed away for the last time after heirs, so "si" became "four", and the throne passed to the current emperor.The empress dowager was dissatisfied because of this, the late emperor had agreed with her when he was still alive that Yan Suike would become a great leader in the future, but he did not expect the result to be like this.Although both were born to her, she never liked the emperor. A shaman wife once made the calculation for her.Therefore, the emperor has been taken care of by a nanny since he was a child. Like the sons of those concubines, he spent his youth in Gandong No. [-].Ten fingers are not the same length, and it is normal for parents to be partial.But it is rare in the world to bring down one and support the other like the Queen Mother.
Songyin filled another pot of smoke for Ama, and remembered the matter of the second room, "How are Changge and Biehong doing now?"
Shuming shook his head, "Don't mention it, my uncle is also a bastard, he talks about his aunt and grandma. You go and see, just this kind of style, the father is bad, the mother is bad, and the nephew is like an uncle. There is no cure. Chang Ge's daughter-in-law Hiding in her mother's house and not coming back, the whole family counted, went to the big matchmaker at the beginning to reason, and finally beat the matchmaker."
Song Yin was dumbfounded, "Isn't the matchmaker Biehong's uncle?"
"That's right." Shu Ming said, "That foolish father smashed up my sister's house, beat up Shunfu's father and mother, and Shunfu came to your second uncle crying, saying that he had never seen such an unreasonable family. .”
Song Yin shook her head, amazed, there are indeed all kinds of people in this world, and even a god would not be able to understand the way of thinking.
Shuming summed it up with a sentence, "Girls have to think carefully about finding a husband's family, and sons can't rush to marry a wife. Raising a son is not good for harming one's own family, and raising a daughter is not good for harming other people's family."
Song Yin just laughed, her Ama is getting old, and she likes to talk about these old mother's orders all day long.She stood up and said: "The Guangchu Department will take inventory in the past two days. Let's figure it out. I will go to the guards of the Qianqing Palace to get the key. I want you to open the warehouse together with the household department and the clan mansion. Go back tomorrow and don't drink." , don’t play mahjong either, I have important things to do later.”
The Guangchu Division's inventory is extremely strict, and the most important department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is the Guangchu Division.This secretary is the emperor's personal treasury, which is divided into six warehouses, storing gold, silver, pearls, jade, coral, agate and gemstones of various colors, and the guards are the strictest in the palace.Two shifts are arranged every day, with 25 people in each shift on duty day and night, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs is required to make monthly statistics of income and cashiers.Shuming knew how powerful he was, and said with a smile, "Your Mama has been a job all your life, and you need to mention something? Just take care of your own affairs and leave me alone."
Song Yin smiled and planned to go to the post office of the Imperial Book Office to do some business. Just as he stepped out of the door, a Sura came up to him and called Qian'er back, "Master Guo of Zhongcui Palace sent someone to invite the little manager, go and have a look." Bar!"
Master Guo is the one who doesn't want to serve the bed. Although she has a weird temper, she is very appetizing to the emperor.After that, I turned over the sign again and became a nobleman, and now I can be regarded as a holy family member, and the monthly regulations and fees have been raised.
Because Songyin is a woman, those masters and eunuchs and mothers can't talk to each other, and they prefer to go to her directly, making her doctor's order like broken reminders.She sighed, "I'm about to wear out a pair of layered bottoms this month... Did you ask me, what's the matter?"
Su La said: "The person who came didn't say anything, just said that the little manager has gone."
Since she had to go, she explained to her subordinates and went straight to Zhongcui Palace.
Guo Gui has a low status and can only live in the side hall, and she doesn't care about it. People with no enterprising spirit can live and work in peace and contentment wherever they go.Song Yin entered the door and squatted for a blessing, "Little master told me something?"
Guo Guiren was very kind to her because of her contribution in persuading her last time. When he saw her, he hurriedly invited her in and arranged for her to sit in the rose chair.Song Yin watched her send the person close to her to the door to watch the wind. She didn't know what she was thinking, but she couldn't sit still.She came over and stood next to her, hesitatingly said: "Miss Tong, I haven't had my period for two months."
Song Yin was startled, which meant that nine times out of ten she was lucky.
"Is there Imperial Doctor Xuan?"
Guo Guiren shook his head, "My mother-in-law said that I can't announce it. If there is something wrong, I'd better ask Mr. Tong for advice first."
Song Yin knew their concerns, children are too precious now.She said: "I know it in my heart, little master, don't worry. But are you sure? If you can, I will go back to the emperor."
Guo Guiren rubbed the corner of his clothes and said, "I've never been pregnant before, so I can't tell for sure. It's just that the chest is very swollen, and I always feel sick when I eat."
Song Yin is a layman and knows nothing about it.No matter what, if you have it, it is always right to report back first.
She comforted her, "Don't worry, little master, eat and drink well, don't treat yourself badly. I'll pass the news to Yuqian, and I'll ask Long Live Lord to make a decision anyway."
Guo Guiren sent her out, and she said: "You stay here." She deliberately raised her voice to call the eunuchs in the palace, "These screens are full of midges, no wonder my master can't sleep well at night. I will go to the office to get the fine gauze." , the window drawers are covered with heavy paste. It's hot, smoke the handles before going to bed to repel insects, don't be lazy." This is for other concubines in the palace, and sure enough, the people listening to the news at each door moved and retreated one after another. into the hall.
Songyin came out of Zhongcui Palace and went up Dongyi Long Street, entered Jinghemen and entered Qianqing Palace, and asked someone to send a message to the imperial court. The little eunuch blinked and stuck out his tongue, "Wait a minute, Lord Long Live is furiously reprimanding Tan Zhangyin .” Asked why, the little eunuch was ambiguous and couldn’t explain clearly.
She stood under His Majesty Dan and turned her head to look at the Qianqing Palace. The palace was too deep and she couldn't hear what was said inside.The emperor has his own confidantes, but who he trusts more is undoubtedly Lu Run.To a certain extent, Tan Rui's power is equivalent to overhead, and it may not be long before the position of the palm print will be handed over to Lu Run.
Waiting here, I don't know when it will be the first time, so I simply pass through the Yuehua Gate, before the emperor wants to eat, he will return to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
In the past, Guanglu Temple was responsible for the meals of the imperial court, but it was gradually transferred. Guanglu Temple only provided food for sacrifices, and all the food for the inner court was assigned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.The emperor's eating and drinking is a major matter, and it cannot be solved by ordinary people with a few dishes and one soup.Like internal meals, there are meat bureaus, vegetarian bureaus, snack bureaus, meal bureaus, and stove bureaus.Long live God consumes a lot of money for a meal, 53 dishes for light meal (breakfast) and 75 dishes for dinner.It's not that Long Live God has such a big belly, it's just to feed his eyes.
When Song Yin entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the dining room was arranging vegetables in the hall. Lu Run watched from the side, and the cloth eunuch reported the names of the dishes one by one, and shouted in a sharp and crisp voice: "Sea cucumber with spinal cord, bird's nest and three delicacies." One piece of shredded duck, one piece of gourd Daji's wings, one piece of hanging pig..."
There are only two meals in the palace all the year round, and this meal is already considered dinner, so the long table covered with yellow silk cloth is full of various dishes.It was rare for Songyin to come in during the meal, and it happened to check the errands of these cooks and cooks. After looking around, there was nothing to be picky about, which was very good.
Lu Run tucked his hands and smiled, "Master Tong is here to inspect?"
She said no, "Just now I went to Qianqing Palace to ask to see Lord Longevity, and Lord Longevity is busy, so why not come here and wait."
He is a capable person, very good at observing words and expressions, anticipating something, so he asked: "Where are you from?" Song Yin pointed to the northeast, and he frowned and smiled, "Is it the Yonghe Palace? Master Tong, go to Master Hui's place to have a look The princess is gone?"
She shook her head, Concubine Hui is very comfortable now, even though she gave birth to a daughter, Long Live Lord was not happy at first, but after seeing the child a few times, he gradually became more distressed.After all, flesh and blood relatives, since they are waiting to see their children, they can't treat them badly. The promise made at that time has been fulfilled, and now Concubine Hui has been named Concubine Hui, she is already satisfied.
Song Yin glanced around, "I'm coming from Zhongcui Palace, Master Guo sent someone to look for me earlier, so I went over."
"Master Guo?" Lu Run thought for a while, "Is that Master Guo who refuses to sleep with him?"
Song Yin said yes, "It's her."
"What happened?"
Because he is a person close to the emperor, there is nothing to hide, so he rolled the trumpet in his hand and whispered in his ear: "Master Guo seems to be pregnant. I didn't dare to tell others, and I didn't ask the imperial doctor. Let me go back and forth first." Mine. I think it's not a trivial matter, and Lord Long Live should be informed. As for how to set up files in the respect room and imperial hospital, I will follow the instructions of Lord Long Live."
The meaning of this is very clear, because there have been lessons from several young masters who were pregnant and had a slippery tire before, and everyone will be more or less afraid in their hearts.The existence of Prince Yu cannot be avoided, his tentacles must have penetrated deep into the inner court, as long as there is any disturbance, he will know it immediately.Song Yin was really worried that it was enough for Mrs. Xi to happen once, and she didn't want to be caught in a dilemma again.Therefore, it is better than anything else to keep quiet and sit quietly.
After Lu Run thought it over, he also thought it was feasible. After the emperor moved to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he patiently waited for him to finish his meal before reporting back.The emperor didn't seem very happy, but it's always good to see hope.He tucked his lips with a handkerchief, drooping his dark eyelashes, thought for a while and said, "I'll turn over her green card tonight, and then I'll call the imperial doctor to ask for her pulse. If she's really pregnant..." He looked at Song Yin, "I hand her over to you, can you keep her safe for me?"
This point was not in Song Yin's preparation, she just wanted to spread the word, at least be prepared before Prince Yu.Unexpectedly, after all the calculations, the matter still fell on her shoulders. It can be seen that the tigers in Dongshan cannibalize people, and the tigers in Xishan can also eat people.Only now did she realize how difficult it was for her Amma in the past ten years. Surviving in the cracks not only depends on her brain, but also depends on luck.
But what room do you have to bargain with the emperor?He is obviously asking you, but he is actually giving you an order.Song Yin had no choice but to heave his waist and said: "Long live God trusts this slave, so I should try my best. But I really dare not guarantee that a woman is pregnant."
Fearing that the emperor would get angry, Lu Run took the first step and said: "Long Live God sees Master Tong as a capable person, but he forgot that she hasn't married yet. Let a girl take care of the pregnant woman, afraid that Master Tong will be powerless. Long Live Lord, please be safe and don't be impatient. I will make a decision after seeing it clearly at night. If she is really pregnant, it will be enough to send more people to protect Master Guo. No matter how bad it is, it is not impossible to restrain her feet openly and protect her secretly."
God, Song Yin is so grateful to him for helping her out at this time.If Guo Guiren is handed over to her, even if this hot potato scalds her to pieces, she will have to continue.What are the consequences of catching it?It was her fate that the child landed safely, and if something bad happened, it would be the responsibility of dying without a place to bury her, which she really couldn't bear.
Fortunately, the emperor listened to Lu Run's words very much, frowned and thought about it for a long time, and finally relaxed, and sighed slowly: "Forget it, it's really hard for you to say that. You did a good job of not saying anything when you got the news. I know yours." Loyalty. You are still young and you have a lot to learn, so I can't bear to be too harsh on you. Then do as Lu Run said, and when things are settled, everything will be considered in the long term."
Song Yin bowed her body in response, and slowly let go of the stone in her heart.But after a short pause, the emperor suddenly turned his head and looked at her, "My son heard a rumor that the sixth master has made a match for you and Rongshi, is there such a thing?"
Song Yin raised his eyes in a daze, "Yes, they said that Rong Shi and I are both grown up, so we can match each other and let us look around."
A smile appeared on the corner of the emperor's mouth, "How are things going?"
At this time, she didn't follow Prince Yu's order, at least in the eyes of the emperor, it was comforting.She pursed her lips and smiled, "Rongshi and I have a mediocre friendship, and when we suddenly mentioned this, we were both a little embarrassed. The slave didn't think about that, so he didn't dare to promise Liu Ye right away."
But the emperor said: "I look at it and feel that it is a good match. Rong has been by my side for many years, and I can see her character and conduct. If you get married, it will be considered a match made in heaven. In the future, I will bring a big gift with you when you get married."
Song Yin didn't expect the emperor to say that, it seems that she and Rong Shi are going to join forces abruptly.
She bowed her hands in embarrassment, "The servant only wants to serve the Lord Long Live, and I haven't considered my own affairs for the time being. It's best to be alone at this time. When I have a family, I have too much to worry about. I owe the emperor's favor."
The emperor smiled slightly, "That's exactly what Rong Shi said." He turned to look at Lu Run, "The last time Rong Shi came in to talk, he seemed to be chanting these same words."
Lu Run frowned slightly, but smiled on his face, "Master Rong and Master Tong are dedicated to serving the master, and the world can learn from their loyalty."
The emperor caressed the jade belt on his waist with his hand down, and said slowly: "Although that is the case, the important events of life cannot be delayed. I hope that everyone around me will be well, and that they will have no worries before they can accomplish great events."
Songyin understood the meaning of his words, so Nuonuo could only say yes.
