Concubine De nodded, sighed, and persuaded softly: "If there is no news, there is no news, you don't have to be too anxious, he is an elder brother, with Feng Bao by his side, going out for a walk, seeing the world, and broadening his horizons, in fact, it is also a good thing, it is better than nesting in your palm-sized prince's mansion all day long." ”

That's all the only thing Erchen can think about. The fourth master smiled, nodded and replied, "As the saying goes, if you don't raise children, you don't know the kindness of your parents, and the sons really didn't have any experience, but since these children are older, they don't listen to discipline more and more, and the sons finally understand." ”

After speaking, he looked up at Concubine De Niangniang sitting on the kang with some embarrassment.

In the past, the fourth master always felt that Concubine De Niangniang handed him over to Queen Tong Jia to raise, and all he thought about was his own honor and wealth, and later Erfu relieved him, although he softened his attitude, and the relationship with Concubine De Niangniang eased a little, but he faintly felt that Erfu was standing and talking without backache, and he didn't understand the bitterness in his heart at all, but he didn't want to live up to Erfu's kindness, and he didn't want other brothers to pick thorns in his relationship with Concubine De, so he took the initiative to get close to Concubine De Niangniang down the slope......

However, after Mo Yaqi ran away from home, Honghui ran away from home, and Xiao Wugege's weak body happened, he suddenly realized!

- Maybe Concubine De handed him over to Queen Tong Jia to raise, in fact, so that he could grow up safely!

After all, the water in the palace was too deep, and at that time, Concubine De Niangniang was an inconspicuous noble little master, and she became the concubine of Emperor Kangxi as a mere tea palace maid, and she had the help of the clansmen who were on an errand in the Internal Affairs Office, but compared to those palace concubines who were from noble backgrounds and had a prosperous family background, it was tantamount to a family sparrow facing an eagle circling in the nine skies, and she exhausted her strength to barely protect herself, how could she protect him as a prince!

At that time, the situation in the palace was far from being comparable to the situation in the palace in recent years, and the princes and princesses who died in the conspiracy and calculation were enough to have double digits, among which there were indeed sick seedlings who were not in good health, but more of them were healthy children, that is, those who were sick were plagued by minor illnesses and disasters, but there were experienced and skilled imperial doctors and grandmothers in the palace who were carefully serving, how could it be so easy to die young, if there were no ruthless palace concubines, it would be impossible at all.

He was born under such circumstances, how could Concubine De Niangniang protect him if he stayed by his side......

Thinking of this, the fourth master regretted his previous immature actions more and more, and he was sure that he was wrong, because even if Concubine De Niangniang was thinking about the benefits of fame, honor and favor in her heart, but just in the midst of thousands of difficulties, giving birth to her own son, such a great grace, it is not something he can ignore......

He looked at Concubine De's eyes, warmer and warmer, and more and more attached to the color of admiration.

Seeing this, Concubine De only felt warm in her heart, and her eyes were astringent, you must know that the fourth child was her first child, in her mind, it was special, although she was raised in front of Queen Tong Jia since she was a child, but she was thinking about him all the time in her heart, the more she was worried about the fourth, the more she dared not approach, because she was afraid that her actions would cause Queen Tong Jia's disgust and turn her anger on the fourth.

At that time, she thought about the fourth child so hard, and she could only stand in the inconspicuous corner outside the gate of Chengqian Palace.

But even if she wants to see the fourth child so carefully, it will still cause Queen Tong Jia's dissatisfaction, and it has long been a habit to punish kneeling and copying scriptures for an excuse.

Later, she finally survived until Queen Tong Jia died of illness, and she thought that she could take the fourth child back to her own side, but at that time, the fourth child had reached the age of living in the elder brother's house, and she couldn't live in Yonghe Palace with her, but every morning and dusk, she was able to meet the fourth child.

It's just that she didn't expect that Empress Tong Jia was really ruthless, and she had already begged Emperor Kangxi to raise the fourth child under her name when she was sick, and there was a big difference between raising her and raising her name, the former was the adoptive mother-son relationship, and the latter was the mother-son relationship, which meant that the fourth child had nothing to do with her concubine Wu Ya's family, fortunately, Emperor Kangxi still took pity on her Wu Ya's child, and did not agree to Empress Tong Jia's request, but it was not good that after Empress Tong Jia passed away, he handed the fourth child back to her Wu Ya's upbringing.

Originally, Emperor Kangxi's arrangement had no impact on the relationship between Concubine De and the fourth child, but the palace maids and grandmothers who were arranged by Empress Tong Jia in front of the fourth child in her early years were unremittingly provoking the relationship between Concubine De and the fourth child, which was a good way for the Tong Jia family and Empress Tong Jia to discuss earlier.

Because the Tong Jia clan is unwilling to waste many years of hard work, they give up the fourth prince, who is about to become an adult, and let Concubine De pull the hearts of the fourth child over and alienate their Tong Jia clan.

Over the years, Concubine De has looked at the fourth child and her own son, she seems to be disapproving, but her heart is already full of bitterness.

Because she knows that Emperor Kangxi values filial piety the most, and the fourth child will never forget the kindness of Empress Tong Jia's nurturing, which is an advantage in the eyes of Emperor Kangxi, but if the relationship between her and the fourth child is stiff, then Emperor Kangxi will feel that the fourth child is indifferent to family affection, and she does not want the fourth child to finally gain a firm foothold in the court, but he folds in the relationship with himself, and he can only endure the sourness and helplessness in his patience.

Later, I waited for Erfu, who didn't understand the palace rules, and was like a stunned side.

Originally, Concubine De pointed out Erfu to the fourth child as a side blessing is a helpless move, because Erfu and the fourth child met in the palace, it seems to be inconspicuous, but it is a taboo thing, if no one investigates the matter, if no one takes the opportunity to make trouble, then this matter will quickly disappear, but how can the people in this palace let go of this good opportunity to get rid of the fourth child......

When Concubine De learned the news, she really hated to drown Erfu, a stunned young show girl, in the well.

However, she also knew that this palace was full of the eyes and ears of her rivals, and it was impossible for her to get rid of Erfu without anyone knowing, on the contrary, any of her actions would give people a handle, so in the absence of a way, she hurriedly sent a request for marriage to Emperor Kangxi's palace on the grounds that the fourth son was not rich, the back house was lonely, and there were few women waiting for the Eight Banners.

It was the riskiest decision she had ever made, as she had no chance to investigate Erf's origins.

If Erfu's origin is different, and there are black hands of other palace concubines behind her, then she may be sent to the front of the palace, and she may even send a nail into the backyard of the fourth child by hand, fortunately......

It can only be said that it is a blessing.

Concubine De's later investigation found that Erfu's origin was quite clean, and it was originally a chess piece sent into the palace by the Fujin Guo Luo Luo clan of the Guerjia clan to assist the concubine Guerjia to gain a firm foothold in the palace, she thought selfishly, maybe Erfu is unwilling to serve a husband with her sisters, so she will make a dangerous move and play a chance encounter with these adult princes in the palace.

But even so, she still had the idea of sending two palace maids who worked for the Wuya clan to Erfu.

Because Concubine De was worried that her own arrangement would harm the fourth child, she would rather be careful, but she was misunderstood by the fourth child afterwards, and she did not hesitate to do so.

This means that Erfu really has no bad intentions, otherwise she would have died at the hands of Concubine De if she didn't wait for the Ulanala clan to make a move.

Thinking of this, Concubine De Niangniang turned her head to look at Erfu, who was sitting next to her and twisted her fingers, showing a kind smile, which was also her risky move, which gave her and the fourth child a chance to ease their relationship.

At that time, she looked at Guerjia's Erfu as if she was stunned and tried to ease the relationship between herself and the fourth child, not to mention how happy she was, she had always been a non-major occasion and did not drink a drop of alcohol, she had always been very self-disciplined, she was drunk for the first time, and sang to the moon in the palace, which was really deceitful and embarrassing.

But she was happy at that time, she was happy that the relationship between her and the fourth child finally had the possibility of easing, but it was far less happy than now, because she really saw the fourth child's admiration for herself in the eyes of the fourth child, which was very different from the perfunctory performance before.

She has been in the palace for many years, and she has never been so happy and happy......

It's just that Concubine De is so happy, and the tears that she finally wiped away came out again, she wiped her tears, and said with a smile in her tears: "You want to draw my tears out, with your words, I don't feel uncomfortable all over my body, I knew that I wouldn't let Su Yao go to the doctor!"

"Eniang, should you invite a doctor or a doctor......" The fourth master smiled and handed over the handkerchief in his sleeve, and persuaded him respectfully, in fact, he also saw why Concubine De Niangniang had such feelings, which made him feel a burst of emotion in his heart, he was really confused, for the sake of the unhappiness when he was a child, and for the bastard words said by the palace maids, he had been separated from Concubine De for so many years.

Fortunately, Erfu arranged an opportunity for himself to ease relations with Concubine De, otherwise he would regret it for the rest of his life......

"Niangniang, you cry a little often today, what you know is that you are happy to cry a few times, if you let those who don't know see it, you don't know what kind of gossip to spread, and then the imperial doctor will come over in a while, it is better to let the concubine wait for you to freshen up again!" Seeing this, Erfu turned his head to look at the fourth master who also had tears rolling in his eyes, and persuaded with a smile.

She didn't want to be drowned in the tears of Concubine De and the fourth master......

"Yes, yes, yes, or the daughter-in-law is thoughtful, help me into the inner hall to freshen up, and I still have something to give to you and the fourth, you can also take it out together!"

When Erfu heard this, he hurriedly got up and came to the kang to wait.

She half-squatted down, while tidying up the slightly wrinkled robe for Concubine De, and at the same time straightened the shoes on her feet, so that Concubine De Niangniang pulled down the kang, and then reached out to help Concubine De Niangniang, who was a little inconvenient to move, to get up, she listened to Concubine De's muffled voice, and asked with some concern: "Niangniang, are you uncomfortable?"

"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just an old problem with this leg!" Concubine De stood on the footrest and slowed down, then replied with a frown, and as she spoke, she asked Erfu to help her go to the inner hall.

She was worried that Erff would ask her about the origin of her old problem in front of the fourth child.

- Because her old cold legs were punished by Queen Tong Jia for kneeling, just a few days after the confinement, she was punished by Concubine Tong Jia to kneel in the air duct outside the palace gate, under her knees is a cold and hard cobblestone path, in front of her back is a whistling north wind, not even a cloak is allowed to wear, this time the root of the disease fell, and then no matter how much you raised it, as you get older, the symptoms of this old cold leg become more and more obvious.

In the inner hall, Erfu was wiping her face with a wet handkerchief for Concubine De, while observing Concubine De's expression, only to see that Concubine De's brows were getting tighter and tighter, obviously because her old cold legs were very serious, and it had reached the point that even standing was a burden.

"Niangniang, go sit next to you!" she handed the warm handkerchief in her hand to Concubine De Niangniang and persuaded softly.

"It's okay, this palace is not so pretentious, it's good to take it slowly, in fact, this is sitting for a long time, I feel uncomfortable standing up coldly, if I really stand and walk for a while, I don't feel uncomfortable!" Concubine De wiped her hands and face, and replied in a muffled voice, and at the same time she had already walked to the dressing table placed by the window in the inner hall and sat down, don't look at her mouth is strong, but this body is really a little unbearable.

Seeing this, Erfu hurriedly used the charcoal stove burning on the ground to push Concubine De Niangniang.

Although she doesn't know the reason for Concubine De's discomfort in her waist and legs, she will always feel more comfortable if she wants to be warmer, especially for a woman of Concubine De's age, she should be the most afraid of cold, and the small problems on her body are mostly related to the cold when she was young.

"Okay, don't stand stupidly next to you anymore, hurry up and pick up makeup for the palace!"

When Erfu heard this, he smiled and said: "Don't look at the ability of the concubine, but the craft of makeup, the concubine is an expert in the eight classics." With that, she came behind Concubine De with her arms and sleeves rolled up.

I saw that she was holding a porcelain box full of pearl powder in one hand and a puff made of fine velvet in the other, taking advantage of the fact that Concubine De's skin was moist, her movements were light and dexterous with the pearl powder that was as white as jade to carefully pounce on Concubine De's powder, especially in the corners of her eyes and lips and other places with more fine lines.
