Qing Palace - Biography of Concubine Wan

Chapter 174 The King's Desire to Find (3)
What he said shocked Sonny a lot. It is no small matter for the emperor to go out of the palace. If something happens to him, he will really die and cannot redeem his sins. My lord, how can I find my concubine in person, if something happens, how will the old minister and others explain to the world, please rest assured, your majesty, I will definitely find your concubine and concubine!"

Once Fulin has made a decision, things rarely change, and this time is no exception. He raised his hand to stop Sony from continuing: "Concubine Wangui disappeared while traveling with me, so this time, I must take her away." You don’t need to say it when you get it back, the period when I’m not in Beijing is the same as last time, you will preside over the government until I come back!”

Sony is still waiting to persuade him, but Fulin no longer gives him a chance, and directly asks him to kneel down to prepare for the portrait, dispatch people and notify the Yamen in Yangzhou quickly to search for Concubine Wangui's whereabouts.

Of course, it is impossible for those people to know who they are looking for, just like Jiang Ning, they only know that this is an order from the capital, but they don't know who the person in the portrait is.

As for Fulin, he is going to leave early tomorrow morning and go to Yangzhou to kiss him. He will definitely find Wanqing. With this excited and beautiful mood, Fulin sleeps on the dragon bed steadily. Wanqing, soon, soon we We can meet again.

Seeing that the emperor had already fallen asleep, Chang Xi took the two young eunuchs back out, closed the door, and left the two guards outside, while he himself went to sleep.

The two young eunuchs, one named Xiao Jiangzi and the other Xiao Shuzi, were both in their twenties. Among them, Xiao Jiangzi told Xiao Shuzi that he had a stomachache and wanted to go to the latrine after Chang Xi disappeared. Xiao Shuzi didn't doubt that he had it, so he responded casually, telling him to go quickly, but after Xiao Shuzi walked out of Xiao Shuzi's sight, he didn't go to the latrine, but ran away in the opposite direction.

He went to the main hall of Yikun Palace, where Concubine Zhen was. It was strange to say that Concubine Zhen, who had already rested, got up again when someone informed her, and announced Xiao Jiangzi in.

Concubine Zhen was sitting on the bed, and Xiao Jiangzi walked a few steps closer to her ear and whispered a few words in her ear after saluting, Concubine Zhen Jingyi's face changed several times, she looked at Xiao Jiangzi with interest and said: "Are you sure you heard right?"

Xiao Jiangzi said in a low voice: "Returning to the words of Concubine Zhen, the slave was lighting the lamps with Eunuch Chang in the Qianqing Palace at that time, and heard what Mr. Suo and the emperor said with his own ears. There is absolutely no mistake. The slave sneaked here to tell you. "

Concubine Zhen nodded slowly. In fact, she believed Xiao Jiangzi's words early in the morning, but she couldn't accept it. How could someone who hadn't been found after searching for so long suddenly pop up now? Fulin wanted to find her himself , take her back!

Concubine Zhen thought for a long time before she came to her senses, and said to Xiao Jiangzi: "Okay, I know about this matter, you go back first, don't let others see that something is wrong!"

"Cha!" Xiao Jiangzi didn't say any more, and retreated after a thousand calls.

He left, but Concubine Zhen didn't feel sleepy anymore, she stood up and walked back and forth in the room several times, her expression changed from time to time, after thinking like this for nearly an hour, she finally got worried, and after asking Lv Yi to bring her pen and ink Quickly wrote a few words, then sealed the envelope and handed it to Lv Yi, telling her to send the letter out of the palace tonight anyway, and hand it to Rong Hai, the Rong manor, this Rong Hai is her mother's The younger brother, that is, her uncle, relied on him to clear Yueling's Ama from the charges.

Not to mention how the night went, just after dawn the next day, Fulin went to the Palace of Compassion and Ning and told the Empress Dowager that he was going out of the palace. He was going to Yangzhou, but what he didn't expect, after knowing that he was going to Yangzhou to find Qingru, the Queen Mother didn't stop her too much, and only made one request: If Wangui Concubine can't be found again this time, the emperor The funeral must be held in the palace, so it is said that Concubine Wan Gui has died of illness, and her whereabouts must not be found from now on!

Fulin knew that Empress Huang Erniang was doing this to prevent him from being disturbed by women's affairs and affecting the government, so he didn't object, and silently agreed.

Before coming out, the Empress Dowager asked him to be careful on the road, bring more guards, and put his own safety first, after all, what he is concerned with is the safety of the entire Qing Dynasty!
Coming out of the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Fulin returned to Qianqing Palace again. This time someone was begging to see him again, but it was no longer Sony, but Rong Hai. Unexpectedly, he also said that he found traces of Qingru, but it was not in Yangzhou but in a place as far away as Yunnan.

At this moment, Fulin couldn't help being a little confused. One came to report that he was in Yangzhou, and the other reported that he was in Yunnan. How could there be such a disparity? The matter of preparing to leave was also delayed because of this.

Yunnan, if it is Yangzhou, he has not thought much about it. After all, Yangzhou is on the edge of Jiangning, and it is understandable for Wanqing to appear there, but Yunnan is puzzling. Logically speaking, she would not appear so far away. A place, unless... Fulin's eyes lit up when she thought of this, unless someone deliberately took her there, and Yunnan is Wu Sangui's territory, could it be him?If it was him, what was his intention? Could it be that he wanted to use this to coerce him?Probably not, although Wu Sangui didn't seem to surrender to the Qing Dynasty sincerely, but he couldn't be so blatant.

He didn't even feel this thought until noon, Fulin only felt that he was in a dilemma, he couldn't decide where he should go, he went to one side and was afraid that the other side was true, and if he missed it, it would be too late!

Headache, really a headache, when Fulin couldn't make up his mind, he thought of someone, and asked Chang Xi to invite him in from outside the palace, hoping that he could give him some advice.

"Amitabha Buddha!" ​​Hearing the Buddha's chant suddenly, a great monk in cassock walked into the Qianqing Palace with Chang Xi. After entering, the monk first uttered the Buddha's chant, and then saluted Fulin who was sitting on the table: "The poor monk has no form." I have seen the emperor!"

As soon as Fulin saw him as if seeing a savior, he got up from his seat, walked up to him and said, "Master Wuxiang, I invited you here in a hurry today, because I have a hard time making a decision, and I want to borrow the help of Master's Dharma. Show me a direction." Then he spoke out what was bothering him, and then asked: "Master, you have advanced Buddhism, and you should have a way to know which person is right!"

Wuxiang smiled slightly and said: "The poor monk is not yet proficient in Buddhism, so he has no way of knowing which is true and which is false, so he can only tell the emperor to follow his own heart!"

"Follow your own heart?" Fulin repeated this sentence, unable to understand the meaning of his words.

Wuxiang lowered his head and flicked the Buddhist beads in his hand, and said: "Exactly, the world of mortals is vast, and many things have a karmic cycle in the dark. If the fate between the emperor and Concubine Wangui is not exhausted, then you will definitely be able to find her. As long as you follow your own Just do what you want, Your Majesty, you can go wherever you want, the poor monk believes that doing nothing and doing it without intention is the most correct way!"

Fulin was originally a smart person, but it was just a matter of concern, and he couldn't understand it. Now that Wuxiang asked him a little bit, he suddenly became enlightened, and he returned a Buddhist salute to Wuxiang and said: "Master Wuxiang, I'm sorry. I understand where we should go." After speaking, he recruited Chang Xi and ordered him to go to Suo Mansion to announce the decree, and Suo Etu led a team to Yunnan to search for Concubine Wan from the people who had already ordered to find Concubine Wan. Then he still followed him to Yangzhou.

Yes, in fact, he believed in his heart that Qingru was in Yangzhou, so he went. As for letting Suo'etu go to Yunnan, it was just in case.

On May 25th, there were a lot of people coming and going in and out of Yangzhou City recently, and many of them were unfamiliar faces, but it seemed that it was not simple. These people were sent by Fulin from the capital to look for Qingru. The portrait disappeared for no reason, so they can only wait for the second batch of portraits to arrive, and this portrait is brought by Fulin's side Tu Hai, and it will take four days for them to arrive.

There is a river in Yangzhou, with quiet and flowing water, on both sides of the green hills, the water is clear and bright, the boats are rocking lightly, and the bamboo rafts are floating, the only way is a paradise.

Song Ling and Rushi stood on the bamboo raft and let the bamboo raft float slowly in the river. It was not a busy time for water transport, so there were not many boats on the wide river.Whenever the breeze blows across the water, it will bring up circles of ripples, and then the ripples will slowly dissipate as they expand.

The wind blows, the willows wave, and Song Ling stands on the bamboo raft with his hands behind his back, looking at the scenery on the other side. He has been busy with his marriage and business affairs in recent days. It is rare to have such a refreshing time like now, perhaps because he is in a good mood The reason is that he actually looked at such an unknown river, which is even more beautiful than the Qinhuai River in Jiangning. The Qinhuai River is full of rouge, but here it is fresh and refined.

Ru Shi slowly sat down on the bamboo raft, staring at the quiet and rippling water surface, lost in thought, so soon, in a few days, it will be the day when she will get married, she thought she would be very happy, but why did her mood change day by day when it came to her end? It sinks like a day, as if a big rock has been crushed, why?She can't say it herself!
Reaching out to touch the water without any hindrance, the whole palm is submerged in the water, then scoop up a handful of hands, and then watch the water fall from the fingers and return to the river, the water is like a wanderer, and the river is like a mother generally.

At this moment, Song Ling and Rushi heard the singing together, and looking up, it was a small boat rolling in front of the bamboo raft, and the boatman on it was singing a song they had never heard before while rowing, simple and natural , there is no rules, it should be done spontaneously, but it perfectly expresses the joy and comfort in the heart, which is far more beautiful than some so-called songs.

The boatman also saw Song Ling and the two of them. He smiled innocently, and the song in his mouth did not stop. With the shaking of the oars, the boat slowly moved away, and the song also went away in the wind and water.

Song Ling didn't think much of it yet, but Rushi was somewhat envious, why this boatman could be so simple and happy, he should have no money and no name, maybe all his property is a boat and a hut, but he Live so comfortably!
"What are you thinking?" Song Ling's voice suddenly sounded next to his ear, and he turned around to see that he was sitting next to him at some point, but he didn't look at himself, but looked at the ship that had become a small black spot from afar. Shi smiled lightly, and didn't answer immediately, but said, "Do you think this song sounds good?"

Song Ling withdrew his gaze and said softly, "It sounds good, but I can't sing."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rushi next to him suddenly hummed a song. It was the song the boatman sang just now. Rushi memorized it with his extraordinary memory. The lyrics and tune were almost the same, but the feeling was different. It was far worse than what the boatman sang just now, Song Ling frowned slowly after being surprised.

Ru Shi kept paying attention to Song Ling's expression when he was humming, and immediately stopped humming when he saw his frown, and said with a trace of helplessness: "You also found something wrong? Although I can remember the lyrics and tune he sang, But it lacks the pure and single happy state of mind when he sings, so the same song changes from my mouth!" Her envy and sadness are all written on her face, such a poetic, such expression , let Song Ling have a momentary trance, such a strange feeling, as if he had never known him before!
Song Ling bowed his head and laughed, how could he have such an illusion, Rushi is the person he is about to marry, how could there be any strangers, after driving this weird thought out of his mind, Song Ling stretched out his hand to support Rushi's chin, Let her look at herself, and then said with a straight face: "Rushi, why do I always feel that you are unhappy recently, is it because I have too many things recently that I have neglected you?"

"No!" Rushi said softly, lowering her eyes to avoid Song Ling's gaze, and said, "I don't know why, but I just feel like a big stone is crushed in my heart, and I can't be happy. Song Ling, I'm afraid, I'm really It's scary!"

"Afraid? What are you afraid of?" Song Ling asked puzzledly. It's just getting married, and it's not a bad thing. There's nothing to be afraid of.

"I don't know!" Ru Shi shook her head and said, "It's just that there is always an ominous premonition in my heart, as if... as if we will be separated, so I am afraid!"

"Silly girl!" Song Ling finally understood why she always looked unhappy. It turned out that she was worried about this. What a silly girl: "Why did we separate when we are so good? It's because you think too much. From Qin Huai From the moment I met you on the river, our fate is destined by heaven, no one can take it away, Rushi, believe me, I will never let you go!" Song Ling said very seriously, as if to As if to use this to prove something, the words of the secret person kept ringing in his ears, like a cloud of mist that could not be dispelled.

Rushi nodded, leaning on Song Ling's arms, I hope she really thinks too much!

The green mountains and clear waters, the flat boat enters the world, when will it be born again...

Song Ling held Rushi in one hand, took out the treasured leaves from his arms with the other hand, put it on his lips, and played the melody in memory again:

The world laughs, the wind and the cloud change, the dream is lingering, and the love is soft;
Ask the world, where is homecoming, between you and me;
The origin of love, the leisurely journey, the dream of the prosperous age, this love is connected;

For the rest of your life, you and I will stay together forever, with friends and friends, and never leave;
A lingering dream, a single love, holding hands in the rivers and lakes, hand in hand for a lifetime...
