80

Talking about his family and sister, Xu Shutong had a gentle smile on his face, without pretense. In fact, this year, she has not been smiling for a long time, and she is happy outside and in the palace.

When Xue Yinong didn't like her, he was very polite. When I like her, I can't wait to spoil her to the sky, and rarely let her suffer any grievances.

Xu Shutong felt that he was a crab, walking sideways! But isn't it, someone relies on him, and he becomes domineering.

Now she has such a close relationship with Xue Yinong, which she did not expect by all kinds of plans. Thinking of the scratches on Xue Yinong's back that were scratched by himself, Xu Shutong actually snickered in front of him, and laughed for a long time.

Let the pity be slightly embarrassed.

Don't be moistened by the emperor, can you be happy like this? It wasn't like this before, every time I finished something, I wanted to wash it 800 times, this is love?

Cun Xi rubbed his eye circles, it was still very heavy, it was too late to talk to Luo Yan last night.

Xu Shutong stopped laughing early and looked at the small gestures of pity. "Don't you also have a confidante? That's good, if you have someone you like, you won't be so lonely, and you have hope. ”

"No, the slave doesn't have that good fate! Don't talk about slaves, let's talk about you. Have you ever thought that although it is a good thing for the emperor to favor you, the future trouble is also very big! ”

Xu Shutong said quietly: "Isn't it." "But there are some things that you can't just run away from.

In the morning, Xue Yinong rewarded her with a lot of things, and specially named her 'Xu Ronghua', which was to upgrade her.

Like a horse running in a line, she suddenly crossed the crowd.

After the palace maids and eunuchs in the Rejuvenation Garden knew the good news, everyone's faces were beaming. When the master is happy, there is hope for their future.

Although the emperor loves his master very much, he is nothing without a promotion. Of course, they didn't know what Xue Yinong was waiting for. may have guessed in my heart that the emperor wanted to wait for Xu Meiren to be happy and give the concubine directly.

As soon as the matter was like this, the whole palace knew about it.

In the palace of recuperation, Xiaodouzi is telling the Queen Mother about this 'good thing', which is the latest news in the palace. "Queen Mother, don't you know that the emperor almost moved out of the big gift of marrying the queen for Xu Ronghua." He heard the eyeliner say that the emperor asked people to pick a hundred flowers to greet him, buy red candles, and rebuild a new house, which was almost declared to the whole country.

The Queen Mother snorted in her mouth, "No matter how good she is, she can't be the queen, the emperor's grace is like an undulating wavy line, today is good, tomorrow is not good, who knows?" If you think it's a blessing, the mourning family doesn't think so. Although she was very disappointed with this result, she thought that Li Tong should be an obedient girl, who knew that things had changed in the middle of the way, and who was doing something bad for her.

Xiaodouzi let out an 'oh' and said with a smile: "Dare to ask the Queen Mother, why is it not a good thing for the emperor to give Xu Meiren 'Ronghua'?" ”

"You know one thing, you don't know the other. It's good to fight for a name first, but if she keeps bullying her, she will definitely make others unhappy, and besides, if she doesn't have children yet, then even if the mourning family doesn't come forward, the ministers are afraid that they will have something to say. ”

So she is not in a hurry to come out and be a bad person at all, some are loyal guys who contribute to the country and the society. At this time, let Xu Shutong be proud first.

Xu Shutong's sealing of 'Ronghua' was transmitted to Kunyuan Palace. Yu Shiyou has always closed the palace door, and he has not asked about the world, like a half hermit. On the surface, it was a 'punishment', but the life was very relaxed and pleasant, because Xue Yinong had already sent a word, and if anyone dared to snub the queen, he would be directly executed.

The emperor's Long En has not decreased because of the queen's 'mistakes', and many people have begun to understand Xue Yinong's attitude and are confused, so they have to be careful with 10,000 and serve carefully.

Rouge said: "Queen, do you want to express your stance on Xu Ronghua's matter?" ”

"This is a good thing, you look at it, pick some gifts for this palace and send them over. If other beauties are promoted, you do the same, and you don't have to ask the palace again. ”

Rouge agreed, "The slave understands. "She only knows that a queen is a queen, and at all times, she is a queen. A bowl of water must always be flat, and the rest of the things do not need to be taken care of, and more mistakes should be made. Rouge doesn't have the same desire for favor as Mama Mei, she just thinks that she is very good at the moment, and they are far from right and wrong.

Yuanyang Garden.

Li Tong was bored lying on the table, counting white rice to play, and chanting 'Amitabha Buddha' in her mouth, she had nothing to do, so she cut the water and found something for her to do, and 'chanted scriptures' every day to cultivate her self-cultivation.

Today, Chongtong got the news from outside, and ran all the way in, making a rapid rustling sound between the clothes and steps, Li Tong raised his eyelids and glanced at her, "What's so in a hurry?" ”

"Oh no, the emperor named Xu Meiren Ronghua and gave many gifts."

"What's there to be nervous about?"

The heavy pupil stomped her feet 'ah', why was the little master of her family so sluggish, "Don't you understand?" Xu Meiren was favored by the emperor. ”

"Isn't this something that everyone already knows, and they haven't been together for a day or two." Not to mention the palace, everyone outside the palace knows it. At that time, she was still envious that Xu Shutong could attract the emperor as a 'widow'! What a brave strategy.

"Everyone knows this, but the emperor didn't get promoted for a day, and everyone doesn't have a hope in their hearts, but once they are rewarded, it is a real favor, and it is the rule of the palace that no favor is not promoted."

What she wants to say: skin-to-skin. I wonder if the little master of her family understands?

Of course Li Tong understood, she was not a fool, and blushed slightly. Thinking of it, the two of them also knew that it was not a day, but it was really a ...... to announce the world.

Jianshui came in from outside, and when he saw Li Tong in a daze, he stood beside him with heavy pupils, his face was so anxious that he was sweating, and said, "What are you talking about?" ”

"You're here, I'm talking to the little master about Xu Ronghua."

"Oh!" Jian Shui's expression was faint, as if he hadn't heard it, and Chongtong specially repeated it to her, "I heard it, what's so much about this little thing, I'm relieved now." She thought that the emperor was not good at that, or that he didn't love women, so that made people anxious.

Xu Shutong can still abide by the rules by her side, so she can hardly think of any other reason except for her abnormal body.

Now, the worries in my heart are let go like a boulder. However, her words aroused Li Tong's curiosity, "What do you say about cutting water?" ”

"It's nothing, the slave wants to ask the little master, do you want to send some gifts to congratulate each other? After all, the relationship between you and Xu Ronghua is also good, and the slave maid heard that the queen has already rewarded her, so let's also make a small part, which can be regarded as support. ”

"You can do it." Li Tong wilted, thinking that Xue Yinong already belonged to someone else, and he couldn't catch it, his mouth was pouting, what was the meaning of being in this palace, Yu Shiyou was like this, and he was like this, alone, it was better not to enter the palace.

Seeing that she couldn't lift her spirits, Jian Shui had already thought of something, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, little master, as the saying goes: the gun shoots the first bird, and with Xu Ronghua blocking it for you, you will have a better life in the future, and you are not afraid that you will not see the emperor." ”

"I hope so!"

It's just that it will be too long in the future, when will she be able to chat with the emperor. Li Tong continued to count the rice boringly, cut the water and let her copy the military book every day, and also take the rice to arrange the troops.

Zhiqiu Garden.

The place seemed quieter than anywhere else, with tall trees that seemed to separate the outside world. Xiao Fang was lying on the recliner, covered with a robe basking in the sun, the breeze in the courtyard was blowing, she didn't feel cold, she just felt that her body was lazy and didn't want to move.

A cat circled itself and leaned against her chaise longue, basking in the sun as lazily as she did, occasionally raising her eyes.

Not far from a man and a cat, there was a palace maid who was fanning the medicine stove with a pu fan, and the medicinal fragrance in the stove was overflowing. Her movements were also slow, as if she didn't know that time was passing quickly outside the garden.

There was a woman wearing a cyan skirt, hurried in from the outside, her steps were as hurried as rain, but she didn't run, her expression was a little hurried, but her hands were tightly clasped together, her clothes fluttered when she walked, and when she walked in front of Xiao Fang, she knelt down, and her face still couldn't shake the look of anxiety, "Little master." ”

Xiao Fang opened her eyes a little, "What's the matter?" ”

"Xu Meiren was named Xu Ronghua."

The original calm has been shattered. "Yes, she started first, but the emperor already spoiled her, so it's nothing. Is there any movement from the beauties of the other gardens? ”

"Li Meiren sent someone to send gifts to congratulate her, but there is still no movement on the South American side, what about us, little master?" She didn't say whether she wanted to send a gift or not, waiting for Xiao Fang to come up with an idea.

"We have no friendship with her, send it over to flattery, don't send it to the past to look raw, you can also pick some usual gifts to send!" She had opened her eyes a little before, but now they were closed again.

Zhigen said yes. Turning around and glancing at the medicine stove, he just wanted to leave, but he didn't leave. "Little Lord."

"Huh? What else do you have to say? ”

Xiao Fang sat up this time, and Zhieven more hurriedly went to help her. "Since the emperor has favored Xu Meiren, this is the beginning of the favor, and the little master can't sit still anymore, otherwise he will ......" She glanced at Xiao Fang's belly, where a little life was brewing, but unfortunately, it was not the emperor's child.

Xiao Fang also understands that she cherishes this child very much. I have had several miscarriages in the Three Princes' Mansion, and this time I was able to conceive a child, which was also an unimagined blessing, but I was not fortunate enough to have a child, which would definitely make the emperor angry, and it was not only the people here who would be involved at that time, but I was afraid that even the Three Princes' Mansion would be lifted.

The corners of her mouth overflowed with a wry smile, she was originally the favorite concubine of the third prince Xue Qingzhu, but Xue Qingzhu also wanted to compete for the position, in the past, because Xue Qingqiu was in front, she wanted Xue Qingqiu to be the first bird, but now Xue Yinong ascended the throne, bullied her young, and smelled Xue Qingqiu like this, he also moved his mind in his heart.

gave up his favorite concubine and wanted her to go to the palace to win favor.

It's just that what I didn't expect was that Xue Yinong had no luck, but Xiao Fang found out that she was pregnant! This green hat is worn on the emperor's head, and he must be angry.

She cherishes the arrival of this child, but whether she can survive or not depends on the child's life.

If she can't, she has to go to her son and mother, which is the last thing she wants to do! Xiao Fang's heart was lamenting, this child came at a bad time, but if the third prince knew, he would be very happy, this was his plan.

Let her bring her son in, even if he can't be the emperor, he can also support his beloved son to be the emperor.

In the end, he still thinks highly of himself, after all, the emperor has Xu Shutong, and he is happy and forgetful, and he doesn't take anyone else in his eyes at all.

Zhigen watched Xiao Fang ponder, standing next to him and waiting quietly. At this time, Zhixuan came out, and also persuaded Xiao Fang to make a decision quickly, the stomach waits for no one, it is only more than a month old now, and I can't see it, if it is late, the people in the palace must be aware of it.

"I understand, it's just that the emperor has always come and gone back to the Spring Garden."

Zhixuan immediately proposed his own construction, "Didn't the little lord hear about Li Meiren's kite flying some time ago, and got along with the emperor for several days, and said a lot of things, but I don't know why after the queen mother announced the summons, the garden door was closed, why don't we learn from her, the emperor doesn't come, we will find the emperor, it's always okay to have a chance encounter!" ”

She also knew that He Sixian was doing things in the worship room, and Xue Yinong was punished for half a year and was not allowed to go out of the garden, so she couldn't do anything else, so she had to use other methods.

Xiao Fang asked, "Well, do you know where the emperor usually likes to go the most?" ”

"The slaves and maids have inquired clearly, the emperor often walks around in the Splendid Palace and the Rejuvenation Garden, and I don't know what charm Xu Ronghua has, so that the emperor can stay with her all the time. On the way back and forth to the Spring Garden, there is a pavilion, where the little master can pretend to be a reward, or read, paint, or play the piano, sing songs, that is the emperor's only way, when encountered, he will always ask. ”

Xiao Fang had no choice but to do so. "It's up to you."

Huichun Garden, I came to the door with regret and reported the queen's reward, Li Meiren and Xiao Meiren congratulated each other. Xu Shutong said: "I know, you just follow the rules and let people thank you." It's just that we are not close to Zhiqiuyuan, and it is their kindness that they send things, and you need to return the gift in person. ”

Cun said with pity: "The slave knows. ”

Seeing that she wasn't leaving, Xu Shutong asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Yes, there is one more thing, the slave maid thinks it is strange, I don't know whether to talk about it or not?"

"If you have doubts, it's okay."

Cun Xi said the situation reported by Zhiqiuyuan's eyeliner, "Xiao Meiren is in good health, but she stews medicine every day, and the slave is afraid that she has something to do, so she has already asked people to take some of the medicine residue over, whether the mother will check it." ”

"Really? There is such a thing. You go and let Imperial Physician Lin check it, but if you have any doubts, I believe Imperial Physician Lin will tell the emperor. "There are some things that she still doesn't want to come forward, but she has written them down. Seeing that there was nothing to say, he asked, "Do you remember letting people get the red bean soup I asked you to stew?" The emperor said that his mouth was dry, and he came to ask for food. ”

Cun Xi smiled: "If the emperor really has a dry mouth, he has his own mother to quench his thirst, what can he do if he eats a red bean soup." ”

was so angry that Xu Shutong threw the handkerchief at her, "If the little hoof doesn't have good words in his mouth, he will laugh at me." ”

It is a pity that he didn't return the handkerchief to Xu Shutong, sniffed the tip of his nose, and said: "I don't know how much sweat this handkerchief wiped for the emperor, slave and maid, and leave a thought, when it's okay, it's good to smell the emperor." ”

Xu Shutong smiled: "You take it!" Just remember to wash and don't get spoiled. ”

They were laughing, and Xue Yinong had already gone down. I regretted seeing her, asked Anbi, and ran to serve red bean soup, "Say the emperor, the emperor will arrive!" Don't get thirsty. She left a series of dumb words, which made Xue Yi stunned for a long time.

Xu Shutong said: "Don't pay attention to her, the little girl is talking nonsense." Sit down and rest. Xue Yinong sat down, and she asked again, "Is there anything going on in the court?" ”

"It's nothing, just a few things a day. By the way, I explained to Ren's father-in-law and asked him to send you something for you? Do you like it or not? Xue Yinong turned his head and looked up at Xu Shutong.

"Isn't it all here, where is there anything you don't like, the emperor rewards, no matter what, it's the best. But for the concubines, the emperor can come, and it is the best gift for the concubines! ”

Xue Yinong was naturally very happy, her eyes smiled, sweet, like a mouse that stole honey, but there was one thing, she had to reiterate, "Don't be a 'concubine' in private, you can't talk around, just make those things for outsiders to see." ”

"The concubine obeys."

"And said."

"I don't want to say it." She also said that the queen and others sent gifts to congratulate each other, "I have inherited their love, and I have to say a few kind words for them, if the emperor is free, I will also visit them and comfort their expectations." ”

"Last time, I just said a few words to Li Meiren, and you were sour to death. How can you be generous at this time, and persuade me to go see her? ”

"That's the same, and I'm not jealous, it's better for the emperor not to rely on me in this matter. Today is different from the past, we are better now, everyone knows, if I dominate the emperor, don't you have something to say, the first one is the queen mother, saying that I am domineering and not virtuous, and then the ministers will echo me, what good life do I have, rather than waiting for them to open their mouths and let me share the emperor, I might as well come myself. ”

Xue Yinong asked, "Do you care about what others say?" ”

"No, but as I said, it's not the same time. Besides, I plan to be with you for the rest of my life, so I can't just think about it, and I don't want the emperor to be a faint king for the ages, I just want them to see how wise the emperor is with me! ”

Xue Yi laughed loudly, proud of Xu Shutong's righteousness! "Of course, Dredging is always the best, and he will think about others the most. We are blessed to be together, and we need to take care of other people's feelings a little. She agreed, and walked around often, so that their days could be more comfortable and their ears were quieter.

Xue Yinong agreed very happily, but Xu Shutong was a little unhappy in her heart, and thought that she would push back, but just think about it. Then he mentioned Xiao Fang, "I asked me to return the courtesy, she said that Xiao Meiren's body didn't seem to be good, and she was stewing medicine in the house!" Is the emperor looking for a time to go over and ask, don't be unaccustomed. ”

"Really? Is anyone sick? I see. ”

Xiao Fang, isn't that the abandoned concubine of the third prince? Xue Yinong is clear about this matter, but when it comes to the antecedents, I have to thank Yu Shiyou, this queen is really very meticulous and admirable, and she has investigated the family background of each show girl clearly. Like this Xiao Meiren, who was originally the favorite concubine of the third prince, why was she suddenly abandoned at this juncture, according to the investigation, the two were bickering, and the third prince was angry and ignored the previous situation.

Then this is just a story of an abandoned woman, or a husband and wife fighting each other. But Xue Yinong doesn't think so, there are not a few people who abandon their wives and concubines because she wants to be drafted, and she has heard of such situations.

The third prince lost his temper, and his favorite concubine came to the draft by himself. This is also too strange, Xue Yinong soon had an idea in his heart: Xiao Fang came with a purpose. Since she came, she had everything she could take. Let's see how Xiao Fang turned her hands into clouds and covered her hands into rain, and played with her in applause.

It's a pity that there has been no movement, it turns out that he is sick.

Xue Yinong didn't stay in the Rejuvenation Garden for long, she was still busy dealing with government affairs, but she was just looking for a leisure time to wander around. At this time, Cun Xi entered the door, holding hot soup in his hand, and said with a smile: "Is the emperor leaving?" It's a pity that a good bowl of soup. ”

Xue Yinong took it and drank it, thanked Xu Shutong, and then went back to the Splendid Palace.

Cun Xi came in, put the bowl on the table, and found that Xu Shutong was still happy just now, and Xue Yinong was not happy as soon as he left. ridiculed: "Niangniang can't see her for a while, just like being unhappy every three autumns." ”

"Nope." Xu Shutong said the previous situation, "She didn't push it back." It turned out that he was still thinking about Xue Yinong's enthusiasm for Xiao Fang.

Cun Xi covered her mouth and smiled, "Niangniang used to be so generous, sharing an emperor with all the concubines, at that time she was so virtuous, how did she become suspicious and stingy when it came to the emperor's problem, it was obvious that the emperor was wrong, or was Niangniang's mood different from the past?" It was only good yesterday, but today I have a little temper. ”

Xu Shutong sighed, "According to what you mean, or am I stingy?" Suspicious? ”

"The slave didn't dare to say that, but according to the meaning of the slave maid, an outsider, it was different from what the mother saw, and the slave tried to explain it to the mother." Xu Shutong motioned for her to continue, "The emperor agreed, and the mother said that she didn't care about your affection." If the emperor doesn't agree, what will be the result? I'm afraid you want to say that the emperor doesn't think about future happiness and doesn't understand your current difficulties at all. The upper and lower skins of the lips are written on the truth of the mother, the emperor is not, isn't it? ”

When Xu Shutong heard it, it was really! Covering her face with her palms, how did she become like this.

Cun Xi sighed: "This is love! When I was free, I ran to the Splendid Palace, saying that it was to send fruits, and Xue Yinong did not necessarily lack it, so I took advantage of this gap to ask Xue Yinong about this little thing, "Doesn't the emperor dislike my little master?" ”

"How can it be, so hearty. I just thought what she said was right and agreed, if I thought like that, I wanted to empathize with her, and I didn't have the reason to say it so frankly in front of her. I regretted that I made it clear in front of Shutong, and I was afraid that she would not be able to think about it for a while, and she would feel uncomfortable in her heart. But she smiled in her heart, she was still a little girl in the end, what was there to think about, but she didn't take it seriously because it was a trivial matter, for fear that if her lover didn't pay attention to it, it would cause trouble and become a big thing, so she asked Cun Xi to pay attention, "If she has anything she can't figure out, she doesn't understand, Cun Xi enlightens her for me." ”

Cun regret said: "The emperor can rest assured, the slaves and maids have done their best, and they will die." ”
