Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Six Princes
In fact, there is no need to ask specifically, just mention one sentence to know that it was the concubine who was serving in the Tianqing Palace yesterday, "I don't know why, without saying a word, Your Majesty let the concubine go." ”
"I didn't hear the specifics clearly. ”
Qin Yunyi nodded and understood.
Miaoqing asked Qin Yunyi, "Does the concubine think there is anything wrong?"
"Let's look at the past few days, will Your Majesty call you a merciful concubine?" Qin Yunyi said, in fact, he could guess what he said, it was nothing more than a pity for the concubine and said that he missed His Majesty, in this way, His Majesty should have heard a lot, why did Du Du have such a reaction to her.
Did Your Majesty believe her, or did you not believe her?
If His Majesty summons the concubine after a few days, His Majesty will take it seriously, and the concubine will be able to occupy a place in His Majesty's heart.
". Miaoqing said, "The slave maid said something beyond the norm, although there are many concubines in the palace, His Majesty treats them all the same." ”
The slave felt that there was something different about the concubine. ”
"The mother should press her down while she hasn't done anything. ”
"Do I have to do this?" Qin Yunyi asked.
"The slave knows that Niangniang has no intention of fighting in the harem, but Niangniang is a member of the harem, and Niangniang is willing to get along with the concubine, but when the concubine gets up, will she be willing to live in peace with the concubine?"
"If she really likes Your Majesty, I should be happy. Qin Yunyi said, "When Concubine Ying first entered the palace, she also really liked Your Majesty, but now she only thinks about her little princess." The women in the harem say that they all like Your Majesty, and a few of them are sincere, and Your Majesty is very pitiful. ”
"Your Majesty's sincerity is not all given to the concubine. Miaoqing said, "If you want the slave to say, Your Majesty's sincerity is only for Niangniang alone." ”
Qin Yunyi smiled bitterly, but what about her sincerity?
The first time Qin Yunyi encountered this kind of situation, he was upset and had no result, so he simply didn't care, and the matter of overturning the case for the Qin family was also a mess, and there was no way.
Qin Yunyi's days of calm and leisure seemed to have disappeared from a certain day.
It's just that she hasn't noticed it yet.
His Majesty is kind to let the concubines on the throne can call their families into the palace once a month, and they don't have to go through the Ditai Palace, the virtuous concubines are the first to start, and then all the concubines and concubines call their families into the palace, and it is not lively for a while.
The mothers below the concubines are very envious, and they all cheer each other up, so that they can become concubines as soon as possible, and they can also call their families into the palace to meet.
Shanglin Yuan in spring is a popular place in the palace, Qin Yunyi will go a little farther in order to avoid them, and then one day he met Cui Jieyu.
Cui Jieyu saluted from afar.
"Niangniang, let the slave go and drive her away?" said Miao Ning.
"No, you can call her over. Qin Yunyi said, "She will wait here, just to come and see me." ”
Cui Jieyu really followed Miao Ning over, "Say hello to the concubine." ”
"Get up. Qin Yunyi said, "Sit." ”
She walked forward, Cui Jieyu followed, Miao An Zhiji pressed the other people who wanted to follow, and only followed after three or five steps, giving Niang Niang a place to talk privately.
"Say, what's the matter with coming to Hongu. Qin Yunyi said.
"It's a little ashamed, I didn't want to trouble the concubine. Cui Jieyu said.
She originally thought that Qin Yunyi would politely say a few words before she said her request, but Qin Yunyi just didn't answer, Cui Jieyu could only say the request softly, "Niangniang knows that the concubine's mother lives in Qinghe, but her mother followed her brother to the capital a few years ago, and I don't know when she will go back, and I don't know."
When will she come to the capital again? ”
"The concubine is just a Jieyu, and she is not qualified to invite her mother into the palace to see her. ”
"So the concubine dared to ask the mother to be gracious and allow the concubine's mother to enter the palace to meet the concubine. ”
"Yes. Qin Yunyi said, "You go back and wait for news." ”
Cui Jieyu was stunned by Qin Yunyi's cheerful promise, and was stunned for three seconds before thinking about thanking her.
"For this palace, it's just a matter of words, so I don't need to thank you too much. "Qin Yunyi said, what she didn't say was that if you come to ask me to do something occasionally, I will feel a lot more comfortable.
Quan dang is for her sister-in-law who died in vain for her family.
Concubine Yao's mother is an honest woman with a simple face, she will only cry happily when she sees her daughter and the little emperor's grandson, Concubine Yao's sister-in-law is a shrewd and capable person, seeing that her mother is only happy to coax the child, she said to Concubine Yao, "Niangniang looks thinner than a year ago, this is not good, just for the sake of the six princes, Niangniang should also take care of her body." ”
"Where to eat. Concubine Yao said bitterly, "I'm worried about whether I can keep her, and I worry about it every day, and I can't eat any taste of food." ”
"The queen still wants you to take the six princes to the Ditai Palace every day?" asked the sister-in-law.
Concubine Yao nodded.
"That's good. Yao's mother said. "It will take some time for your brother to enter Beijing, and it is not easy to discuss such a big matter by letter. ”
The sister-in-law patted her mother's back soothingly, and only looked at Concubine Yao, "Even if your brother comes over, I have to ask you first, what does Niangniang think about the future of the six princes?"
"What do I think?" Concubine Yao said anxiously, "The six princes are not long-term princes, my life experience is not worth mentioning in the harem, if I don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, and the six princes want to climb the position of ascending to the sky, I shouldn't have given birth to the six princes, I gave birth to him, did I let him die?"
"Sister-in-law, that position is not something we can imagine. ”
"I only hope that the six princes can grow up healthy and become a free prince in the future, and I don't want him to have great achievements. ”
"For that great creation, are there still fewer princes who have died in the palace?"
"If I think that he has a great transformation, and I am still worried that I can't eat or sleep because the Tai Palace wants him?" Concubine Yao cried, "I have already sent the six princes to her with both hands." ”
"We don't ask for that position, we only ask for peace. Yao's mother cried with her, "Peace is the best." ”
The sister-in-law had no choice, so she appeased her mother and comforted her mother, "It's best if your mother has an idea." ”
"Since Niangniang doesn't want the six princes to seek that position, it's much easier. ”
"Simply let the six princes get sick. ”
"Originally, on such a cold day, such a small doll, walking around outside every day, it is not very natural to be sick. Sister-in-law said. "Niangniang doesn't have to bite anyone, just cry. ”
"Your Majesty will be decisive. ”
"Of course, if His Majesty wants to promote the Six Princes, then there is no way. The sister-in-law said, "It's better than such an unexplained stalemate." ”
"But the sixth prince is not sick?" Concubine Yao looked at her in surprise and said, "Sister-in-law, is my sister-in-law not going to let me." ”
"How delicate the child is, the doctor can't control the illness well, in case, if he is seriously ill, I regret it too late. ”
"It's not that the six princes are really sick, just pretend to be sick. The sister-in-law hurriedly said, "How can you let the six princes take risks?"
"It's not uncommon for children to cry and not find out the cause. The sister-in-law said, "Niangniang only needs to secretly pinch the sixth prince when the imperial doctor comes to diagnose the pulse and make him cry." ”
"As for what fever, crying at night, isn't it all Ren Niangniang's words. The sister-in-law said, "When the sixth prince is sick, please ask the imperial doctor, someone from the Ditai Palace, and the mother will also have something to say." ”
"What if the queen wants to carry the six princes over and then invite the imperial doctor?" asked Concubine Yao.
"A child's illness is easy to recur, it's okay in the Ditai Palace, and it's possible to go back to the mother and ask for a doctor if you get sick again. ”
"When the toss is big, Your Majesty will know, will Your Majesty believe that the mother of the mother will harm the six princes, or will the queen mother-in-law harm the six princes?"
"But I also suggest that whether you want to move or not, and how to move, still has to be decided. The sister-in-law said, "Niangniang should always have a way, otherwise what should I do if my mother survives like this?"
"Has the mother survived the queen's mother?"
Concubine Yao didn't say how to care, one day she was teasing the six princes, and the palace maid came to the Ditai Palace to hug the six princes, Concubine Yao seemed to have finally made a decision, and she went as she spoke, but she gave the palace maid a look, she nodded and melted some powder with warm water, and fed the six princes to drink.
In the Ditai Palace, the queen hugged the six princes and laughed, saying that they had something to say, and suddenly the six princes cried, no matter how they coaxed, they couldn't coax it, and it was useless to let the nurse hug it, Concubine Yao got up anxiously, "The six princes are a little unwell-behaved today, let the concubines hold and want to go back first." ”
"What did you say?" said the queen displeased. "The sixth prince cried so much, hurry up and call the imperial doctor. ”
"I don't know if it's uncomfortable, such a small person, he can't speak, you don't know how distressed you are when you are a concubine, and you just want to take it back as soon as possible. ”
"At this time, it is more important than anything else to be in the Ditai Palace. ”
Concubine Yao looked at the queen and looked at the six princes distressedly, like a mother, Concubine Yao pinched her palm, this is a way once and for all, the son of the concubine, the concubine can't keep you if you don't do this, you forgive the concubine, it's not the concubine who is ruthless.
The news that the six princes were sick in the Ditai Palace spread all over the harem after a while, and His Majesty went directly to the Ditai Palace after the next court, and the rest of the people were gossips, and they didn't dare to go to the Ditai Palace, so they only sent people to talk about their brains at the door, thinking about knowing the first-hand news.
Qi Zongwen came to Ditai Palace, the six princes were still crying, hoarse, their little faces were red, they looked very pitiful, Concubine Yao was crying silently, and the queen heard that His Majesty was coming, and she also covered her face with a handkerchief, crying very sadly.
"What is the situation with the six princes?" Qi Zongwen asked the imperial doctor. "Why are you crying so much?"
The imperial doctor was also sweating, he couldn't say that the six princes couldn't find any discomfort, but the six princes were really crying so much that they could only say vaguely, "Xu is cold from the wind." ”
"Xu Shi, what is Xu Shi?" Qi Zongwen said angrily, "If the root of the disease is found, then prescribe medicine to the six princes, and see if they can be relieved after taking the medicine, haven't you seen the six princes crying so much?"
