Returning to the Heart Cultivation Hall from Yonghe Palace, the fourth master was already waiting for her. Please go to w*w*w.s*i*k*u*s*h*u.c*o*m to see the latest chapters*****

The waiters and eunuchs in the room on the other side were ready, and she also heard the sound of the stew pot gurgling and smelling the aroma of crucian carp soup.

Could it be that she came back late? She just didn't want to stay in Yonghe Palace to eat, and she wanted to come back to eat with him. She has just arrived in a new place, maybe she is not familiar with the schedule here?

Li Wei subconsciously glanced at the table clock in the room and saw that it was just eleven o'clock.

The fourth master was sitting on the couch playing with Hongyun, and said to her, "Go change your clothes, let's have dinner early today." While they haven't come yet. ”

After she went to change her clothes, hugged Hongyu, and then handed him over to the nurse to take away, he took her to lunch.

The lunch is not sumptuous, but it is based on the current identity of the fourth master, after all, sixteen cold dishes, thirty-six hot dishes, eight soups, and thirty-six pastries, this kind of jiashi she remembers enjoying in Fujin in the house.

Why should it be doubled again?

The fourth master gave her a piece of fried chicken nuggets, and said, "I just wanted to see you when I asked you to come in, but now it seems that you can't be idle." ”

Li Wei also has a number in her heart. She went to Yonghe Palace today to ask for peace, and the other palaces couldn't be saved. It's easy to say elsewhere that Cining Palace is a must-go.

She believed that he might have really just wanted to talk to her when he called her in the first place. It's just that when they come in, they can't make their own decisions. There are some things out there, and if you don't do them, you can't do them.

After eating, he accompanied her for a while, and she reported the meaning of Concubine De in Yonghe Palace, and he looked relieved.

"So, you still go to Yonghe Palace in the afternoon to see if Niangniang can lead you to see the Queen Mother. It's just a junior kowtowing to an elder, not a serious visit. He didn't think much of it when he called Su Su in. Now that he is the first person in the world, he is angry for a while, of course, he feels that he can do anything, and there is nothing to restrain him anymore.

So he asked Su Su to take the concubine's sedan chair and let her live in the five rooms in the east of the Heart Cultivation Palace.

It's just that after seeing Concubine De, he also had to think about it a little more. It's not that he's afraid of anything, but who else is there to fear him now? He just wanted to plan better for Su Su and not let her be rubbed by others.

Everything just depends on the attitude of the mother in the Yonghe Palace in the afternoon.

The fourth master only said for a quarter of an hour after the meal, and Su Peisheng came over and said that Zhang Tingyu was here in front. The fourth master put down the tea bowl and left in a hurry, leaving Zhang Qilin for her before leaving.

Li Wei asked Concubine Yonghe Gong De if she had the habit of taking a nap, and if she did, she would wait for her mother to take a nap before going over.

Zhang Qilin came back soon, not only answered what she asked, but also bought one and gave one free a message - I don't know if someone else used it to curry favor with him, the imperial eunuch.

"Niangniang generally rests for half an hour from time to time, and then gets up and goes to the small Buddha hall behind Yonghe Palace to recite the scriptures for half an hour. The master is going to visit Niangniang, and before the time, Shen Shi is the most haode. He said.

Li Wei automatically converted the time to Concubine De's nap at one o'clock in the afternoon and chanting at three o'clock, and it was best for her to visit after three o'clock.

Zhang Qilin continued: "Today's noon is the lunch for Cheng Concubine to accompany her mother. ”

After he stepped back, she lay down to take a nap and realized that the second message was attached, and there should be some meaning in it.

Does it mean that Concubine De has already revealed that if she has a concubine, she can go out of the palace to support her son?

She yawned and rolled over to think before falling asleep.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, she got up, washed and changed her clothes and combed her hair, and asked someone to ask Concubine De if it was convenient at this time, in fact, she was informing Yonghe Palace that she was about to pass. Soon the word came back and said that it was convenient, saying that Concubine De Niangniang was just taking a nap and wanted to talk to someone, so she asked Master Li to come over, and said that Niangniang had a new lychee for this year and asked her to taste it.

When she arrived at Yonghe Palace, she saw that there was indeed a plate of lychees on the table in front of Concubine De, and the leaves were bright green and very fresh.

It's just that the amount is a little small.

A plate filled at most about half of what she had when she was in the Old Summer Palace.

Li Wei still sat on the embroidery pier in front of Concubine De's couch, Concubine De pointed to the plate of lychees and invited her to eat, and the palace maid on the side cleaned her hands and took off the big, red one pointed out by Concubine De for her, peeled the shell and removed the core, and put it in a small porcelain dish and sent it to her.

Eating lychees like this is really a big loss.

Moreover, she also saw that lychee was definitely an unusual luxury in this palace. From the time she came to her leaving, she only ate one of the whole plate of lychees, Concubine De ate one, and tasted one of Aunt Fang.

Concubine De asked her to eat again, and she hurriedly said that one was enough, and she had been a little hot recently.

Regarding going to Cining Palace, she only mentioned that the Queen Mother didn't know if she was in good health recently, and Concubine De immediately said: "Tomorrow you go in with me to kowtow, and ask the Queen Mother to see you." Speaking of which, you haven't seen the Queen Mother in all these years, right? ”

In fact, she has to kowtow at the gate of Cining Palace for more than ten days every year. Of course, knocking outside the hall, the Queen Mother must not know.

Li Wei said implicitly: "I have never had the honor to meet the Queen Mother......

Concubine De smiled and comforted her: "The Queen Mother loves her juniors the most, and she will be happy to see you." Then he told her that the Queen Mother did not often speak Manchu, but mostly Mongolian.

Li Wei's natural Chinese seed, Manchu or the second language she learned after wearing, Mongolian? When I was a child, I vaguely seemed to have learned, but now I have returned it to the teacher.

Her face stiffened, and Concubine De immediately understood, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's not difficult at all, you just need to remember these few sentences: Niangniang Jin'an, Niangniang is good, yes, thank you Niangniang for your grace." ”

Concubine De taught her these simple Mongolian conversations on the spot, and when she didn't talk and laugh much, she asked Li Wei to throw away all the rustiness. When she retired at five o'clock, she smiled so much that she was all comfortable.

It's really not okay to disobey Concubine De. Obviously, when they met in the morning, she still remembered to have a difference between dignity and inferiority, and she was not close to Concubine De at all, but before she left in the afternoon, she felt that it was not difficult to get along with Concubine De at all, she was so kind and laughing, and she spoke funny and without any pretension.

This affinity is really not covered.

went back to see the fourth master, and he was waiting for her here early.

Seeing that the smile on her face when she came back was still confiscated, the fourth master unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Is this a lot of fun?" ”

He followed up to see her change clothes, she sat in front of the dresser and was removed from the hairpin ring on her head by the jade bottle and others, while eagerly sharing with him her feelings in Yonghe Palace.

"The mother is really loving!" She turned over and over this sentence, saying that Concubine De taught her to speak Mongolian, and she didn't learn to be angry at all like Niangniang, and was amused by her.

"I'm dying of shame, I can't say anything wrong." Li Wei really felt that she had never been so embarrassed, but unexpectedly she was not angry or ashamed when she was embarrassed, but she smiled and she laughed with her. Laughing and laughing, Concubine De covered her mouth and supported the table, laughing so much that she couldn't breathe, Zuihou still rubbed her stomach and said no, no, you can't laugh anymore, your belly is going to burst with laughter.

She saw that the fourth master was also smiling softly at this time, and comforted her and said, "It's okay, I'll teach you after dinner." ”

He was actually serious in what he said, and immediately asked Su Peisheng to pass the word, saying that they didn't need to come over again in the evening, and then taught her word by word after dinner.

When he taught her, he was very similar to Concubine De, and they were both simulants.

Concubine De said: "As soon as you enter Cining Palace, Niangniang will definitely ask who you are, then I will come to Niangniang and say, as long as you see a palace maid with a cushion in front of Niangniang's couch, you can go forward and kowtow, and after kowtowing, I will say: I am his character." ”

Regarding how to introduce her name, Concubine De said that she would definitely not be able to call Han, and the Queen Mother would not call you next time if she couldn't remember it, Li Wei's real name and characters are flowers, so call her her character.

The fourth master nodded lightly when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Its character is very good." ”

Then, she had another name.

The fourth master's Mongolian language is quite good, and he also explained to her that the Queen Mother's Mongolian language has an accent, which will sound very fast and vague, and he imitated how the Queen Mother spoke, which sounded like a bit of a big tongue to her, like saying it in her mouth, and the speed of speech was very fast.

He said that what the Queen Mother would say to her was nothing more than telling her to serve him well, to have a few more healthy boys and beautiful girls, so that Haode could raise them all, and the boys should be like heroes on the grassland, and girls should be like pearls on the grassland.

So her answer was a 'yes'.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand, the Queen Mother won't tell her too much, and she can come back if she kowtows.

Li Wei listened and nodded. When she entered the palace, Fu Jin was in the way, and she served as a backdrop from beginning to end. This is the first time to pick up the beam, and she can't help but be nervous. It's just that Concubine De is an acute son like the fourth master (really worthy of being a mother and son), tell her about this today, she will take her to see the Queen Mother tomorrow.

She felt that if she saw Concubine De in the morning and said this, she would dare to take her to Cining Palace in the afternoon.

That night, she replied that the fourth master's words were 'good' in Mongolian. He told her to go to bed and she said 'yes', he told her to lie down, she said 'yes', he asked her if she wanted to drink water, and she 'yes'.

The fourth master brought water to her to drink, touched her back and said, "Don't be so nervous, the queen mother doesn't like to take care of things." ”

She nodded, remembering her previous impression of the Queen Mother, who was indeed a signboard-like figure in the harem. The first emperor took the honor of filial piety after the queen mother, and the queen mother sat there and let him brush it. Thinking about Concubine De again, you know that the Queen Mother has been able to survive in this deep palace until now, and she is still a very sensitive Borzichite, so she is definitely not a simple character.

Just like this afternoon in Yonghe Palace, she felt that she got along very happily with Concubine De, but in fact, it was the atmosphere between the two of them led by Concubine De, a smart person. When a fool is with a smart person, it is usually the smart person who takes the initiative.

The Queen Mother will definitely not have nothing to do to embarrass her, now is the time for hello, hello, hello, everyone, so if you go to Cining Palace tomorrow, everything will definitely go well.

The next day, before she left, the fourth master specially asked Su Peisheng to come over to see her off, telling her to 'don't worry about anything, go with confidence.' If the Queen Mother stays for lunch, she will use it in Cining Palace with Concubine De, and he will take care of Hongyun. ’。

She still walked to Yonghe Palace as usual, and then Concubine De took her on her shoulder, and then went to Cining Palace.

Concubine De's shoulders were slightly inferior to the golden sedan chair she had once sat on. She was sitting with eight people at the time, and Concubine De was carried by four people.

If the fourth master can use eight people to carry her, it is impossible to ask Concubine De to use four people to carry her.

This shows that Concubine De is useless, she still uses her previous ones?

Thinking of the day before yesterday, the fourth master said that it was impossible for Concubine De to live in Cining Palace, Li Wei suddenly felt a little worried. Concubine De didn't want to live in the Queen Mother's Cining Palace, was she afraid that she would squeeze the Queen Mother into a corner after she passed?

Or just a gesture of humility?

Concubine De noticed that Li Wei's gaze had been revolving around her shoulder, and she sighed a little. Looking at her frowning brows, you can understand that the Li family is worrying about the fourth child.

Most of the women in the palace don't worry about the emperor. If you have to worry about it, you have to put it on the bright side, so that the emperor can only count in his eyes.

The fourth child is not here now, and Li's worry is real.

She sighed softly in her heart.

The fourth child probably likes Li to keep him in mind all the time. After more than ten years, from the palace to the mansion, and then back to the palace, the fourth child can like her for more than ten years, and he probably won't let go easily in the future. Between men and women, the first year or two is based on coquettish faces, and the rest is the heart.

The more you are in the palace, the more obvious this kind of thing becomes. Sometimes it's less than a year, and no matter how good your face is, you should be tired of looking at it, and fresh female colors emerge in endlessly. Those who can still hold the emperor's gaze a year later are all the emperor's confidants.

If you can know your heart for more than ten years, it will be almost like a lifetime.

Concubine De patted Li Wei's hand and said with a smile: "At this time...... After all, ...... order hasn't been decreed yet."

What Li Wei understands is: there is no decree, so Concubine De, who is used to the rules, refuses to use the new one, and still uses her old shoulder.

She nodded, saying that she would definitely tell the fourth master what she said.

Before Cining Palace was reached, there were already people coming out, and when Concubine De and her shouldered, more than 20 people came out of Cining Palace to greet her. There were several aunts, and they came up to help Concubine De, and two came to help her, and the palace maids in ordinary clothes followed behind or led the way.

The qualifications of the ladies are roughly divided into three sections. The youngest is the palace maid, the middle-aged is the aunt, and the older is the grandmother.

But there are also white-headed old palace maids, who have not become aunts until they are zuihou. Being able to become an aunt at about the same age means that the masters like their waiting.

is like Aunt Fang beside Concubine De, that is, under one person in Yonghe Palace, above ten thousand people.

So Li Wei was very polite to the two aunts who came to help her.

The aunts were a hundred times more polite than her.

As soon as she entered Cining Palace, she was greeted by the scent of Tibetan fragrance, and she could see golden banners hanging everywhere, much like the things in Mongolian temples she had seen in modern times.

In the hall is a half-man-high incense burner, and the brass walls are inlaid with turquoise and red agate.

The carpet on the floor is also woven with regular square and round patterns. In short, the decoration in Cining Palace is a completely different taste.

When I met the Queen Mother, this feeling became even more obvious.

The Queen Mother sat on the couch, and the patterns on the brocade mats on the couch were the same as those on the carpet. Her hair was gray, braided into a large braid, hanging down the back of her head. She did not wear a flag head or other jewelry like Concubine De and the other women in the palace, but wrapped a headscarf (?). ）。

Li Wei met the Queen Mother for the first time, but she didn't expect to see her like this.

There was a woman in her fifties sitting near the Queen Mother's bed, her face was very similar to the Queen Mother, and even the eyebrows and eyes were similar. If she hadn't seen her salute Concubine De, she would have thought that this was a relative of the Queen Mother (the Queen Mother had no children, otherwise she would definitely misunderstand more).

Concubine De introduced her to her, but the woman did not dare to accept her salute and avoided it sideways.

Li Wei heard the fourth master mention it, saying that there was also a concubine in the harem of the first emperor, this one is a relatively noble one, surnamed Borziqit, from Horqin, and the niece of Empress Xiaohuizhang, that is, the cousin of the first emperor.

But the problem is that since she entered the palace, the first emperor has never favored her, nor has he given her a title. She became an embarrassing concubine for forty years.

The fourth master means that this time he will give this Mongolian concubine to the official concubine, which can be regarded as giving her a correct name.

In the past, Li Wei had wondered if the fall from grace of the Song family and others would be her reason. But after seeing this old concubine with her own eyes today, she suddenly understood. It's not her, but whether it's the fourth master or the first emperor, when they have too many women, those who don't like them will be left out in the cold.

For no other reason, just that they are not impressed, these women will grow old lonely in the backyard, and spend their years empty.

This relieved the pressure in her heart to some extent, and gave her a slap in the face casually. I thought that the light of Su Zhi really shone all over the earth, and it could also affect the judgment of the fourth master.

After the Queen Mother knew that she called Qiqige, she kept calling her Qiqige, and put the tea bowl in her hand (golden bowl!). He also took milk tofu from a golden plate and handed it to her.

She didn't need Concubine De to signal her, she ate them all.

Moreover, Borzicht has always been talking on the side, especially when she can't understand the Queen Mother's words and can't answer them, she will interject and pass over, and then quietly smile at Li Wei.

Li Wei was naturally very grateful to her. It's not that everywhere you go, you can meet people who are willing to help her.

Concubine De helped her in the face of the fourth master, and she could guess what the reason for Borzichite's clan was, but it was still very heartwarming to be helped.

After coming out of Cining Palace, sitting on Concubine De's shoulder, she sighed: "Naoribu's life is not good, he has moved into Cining Palace since the fifth year of entering the palace, and he has lived by the Queen Mother's side until now. ”

She and Naoribu were almost waiting for the emperor together, and watched the originally beautiful Mongolian girl wither day by day. The first emperor always turned a blind eye to her, and at most occasionally asked her to dine with her, but rarely stayed overnight.

In the twentieth year of Kangxi, the first emperor sealed the harem. They all thought that the first emperor would make Naoribu a nobleman or concubine, at least not so that she would live in the palace with such an empty head all the time. As a result, the first emperor still skipped her.

After that, Naoribu moved into Cining Palace and never came out again.

Li Wei guessed that Naoribu was the name of the Borzichite clan.

Concubine De patted her hand, smiled at her and said nothing more.

After returning to the Heart Cultivation Palace, the fourth master did not come back early today to wait for her. After she changed her clothes, he hurried in, and as soon as he came in, he smiled: "The smell of hiding all over the body." ”

"I've changed my clothes, anything else?" She raised her hand and sniffed it, only to smell the smell of milk.

After sitting down, she first reported her impressions of a visit to Cining Palace, focusing on her surprise at the Empress Dowager's dress and the decoration of Cining Palace, as well as Borzichite's overtures, and Concubine De's hints.

The fourth master nodded, and said the queen mother first: "The queen mother was not like this before, when I went to kowtow when I was a child, it was no different from other palaces, but there was a Tibetan fragrance everywhere." When Lao Shi married Fujin, probably because the first emperor was more tolerant, Cining Palace gradually changed its furnishings, and the queen mother could also wear a Mongolian robe in the palace. ”

It turned out that the Queen Mother was not so comfortable from the beginning.

Let's talk about Concubine De: "Niangniang, I want to be a good person for me." He smiled, patted his leg and sighed, "Now is the time to be gracious." ”

Although he has not yet ascended the throne and the first emperor has not yet been buried, the greetings to him are still flying like snowflakes, all vying to show their loyalty and kowtow.

He only replied to these folds on both sides, and his wrist was about to be broken.
