Chapter 66: The Princess

In Changchun Curie, the eldest princess of Funing is serving the queen mother to take medicine. The Empress Dowager www.biquge.info took a spoon and stirred the medicine in the jade bowl, frowning and thinking about things.

Fu Ning smiled: "Queen Mother, if you don't drink this medicine, you will be cold!" What do you want to be so engrossed? ”

The Queen Mother said: "I always feel that the matter of Prince Haixi's request to marry Chengyi is strange inside and out. He let Hejing a princess, and he didn't marry such a beauty, but he wanted to marry the daughter of a prince. Looking at it yesterday, that kid is not stupid, how could he come to such a show? ”

Fu Ning said: "Maybe I heard that Hejing's mother is not high, and I dislike this?" ”

The Queen Mother picked up the bowl, drank the medicine in one go, took the Jinpa handed by Funing and wiped her mouth, and then said: "No matter how well Hejing's biological mother is, she is also a princess." Princess Chun is not a great background, so she will not let him give up the princess and marry the county lord. There must be something else going on here. ”

She narrowed her eyes, pondering carefully. There was something in the palace that she didn't know, and this feeling of losing control made the Queen Mother feel a little bored.

The Queen Mother asked Li Jingyuan, who was sitting on the side eating candied fruit: "When you watched polo yesterday, did you think there was anything unusual about Cheng Yi?" ”

Li Jingyuan handed the Queen Mother a candied begonia fruit and said, "It seems to be nothing, as usual, I don't talk much, and I'm a little dumb." It seems that when she started playing, she was quite serious. ”

Fu Ning looked at the Queen Mother's expression and asked, "Are you going to ask?" Cheng Yi always smiles shyly when he sees him on weekdays, this kid doesn't look for trouble, and it's quite painful......"

The Queen Mother interrupted her words and said: "It's natural to ask, otherwise the people who are close to you will suddenly change, I don't know what's going on, and some people should ride on my head in the future!" As for who to let Heqin go, I don't want to care, what do you do with so much leisure. As long as they don't say let Wen Jin go, they can make trouble as much as they like. ”

While he was talking, the little palace maid outside came in and asked the queen to come over, and then turned around and opened the curtain, and the queen walked in.

The queen saluted the queen mother, saw the candied fruit on the kang table, and said, "The queen mother, have you taken medicine?" It's the concubine who came late, and she didn't catch up with you to take the medicine. ”

The Queen Mother said: "Filial piety is not on this. You sit down. ”

The queen sat on the circle chair opposite the big kang near the window, and said with a smile: "King Fang Caichun and the princess went to the Qinxian Hall together, and the emperor called the concubines over. As soon as the two of them left, the emperor summoned the ministers to discuss, and sent the concubines over to ask what you meant. Originally, we were scheduled to marry Jing, but we never thought that this Haixi prince had his own ideas. You see......"

The Queen Mother asked, "What did King Chun say when he came here?" ”

The queen replied: "It's not that she doesn't want Cheng Yi to go to make peace!" Saying that he was young, ignorant, and afraid of delaying national events or something, Lala said a lot of miscellaneous things. ”

"And what did the Emperor say?" The Queen Mother followed and asked.

The queen said: "The emperor is a little unhappy, saying that Chengyi is older than Xuanhui, and he is only a month away from Hejing." A few days ago, the news of his relatives just came, and the emperor made preparations to marry his daughter far away. Besides, this time it was Prince Haixi who asked for Cheng Yi by name, and it wasn't like we would give it to whoever we said. If you want me to say, even the princess can go, how can a county lord not be able to go! King Chun and his wife also spoiled the child a little unpleasantly. ”

Fu Ning nodded and said, "Brother Huang's words are good. It's just that the seventh brother is afraid that he is uncomfortable in his heart. ”

The Queen Mother said: "What is he uncomfortable with? How can a prince who doesn't do anything every day and takes so much money not take a little responsibility? Thinking about good things every day! They can make trouble about this, just don't bother me. ”

The queen smiled: "When they saw that the emperor did not let go, their faces were gray, and both of them came out of the Qinxian Hall with red eyes." After speaking, she smiled proudly again: "Therefore, it is better to give birth to a daughter than to give birth to a son." Giving birth to a son, staying by your side all year round, and when you are old, your children and grandchildren are full, and you are on your knees, how good! ”

Fu Ning frowned, looked at the queen dissatisfied, sat down and stopped talking.

The Queen Mother glared at the queen fiercely and reprimanded: "Talking about this well, what are you doing on the side?" When you're done, drink tea and eat, and plug your mouth! ”

The queen opened her mouth to argue, but when she saw that the queen mother was still glaring at her, she said indignantly: "Since you don't plan to take care of this matter, then the concubine will go and reply to the emperor!" ”

After that, she hurriedly bowed and asked the little palace maid to open the curtain and go out.

Li Jingyuan said in the house: "My aunt is getting more and more angry. I remember when I was a child, she was smiling every day, where would she throw her face like this to show others. ”

The Queen Mother took a long breath, and only then did she suppress the evil breath in her chest, and said: "The fifth child is her guts, the older the fifth year, the greater her natural temper!" ”

Early the next morning, Concubine He, who stayed in the capital, rushed to Nanyuan and took Cheng Yi to Changchun Residence.

Concubine He is the biological mother of King Chun, and she has been attached to the Queen Mother in the early years, so she had the opportunity to get the favor of the first emperor and give birth to King Chun. After the death of the first emperor and the succession of Emperor Yuan and Emperor He, Concubine He rarely walked around in front of people, and ate fasting and chanting scriptures in the small Buddha hall in her palace every day.

When King Chun became a family and opened the mansion alone, Emperor Yuanhe issued a decree to allow Concubine He to leave the palace and go to King Chun's mansion to recuperate. Since then, she has not entered the palace except for New Year's Day and the death of the first emperor.

Every five and ten every month, the concubines and princesses above the palace have to go to the queen mother to say goodbye. Today is August 25, and Changchun Curie is very lively.

Hearing that Concubine He was coming, the Queen Mother frowned and asked someone to invite in.

Concubine He is in her early fifties this year, but her temples have long been gray, and her eyebrows and eyes full of wrinkles can vaguely show the delicate beauty of the year.

As soon as she entered the house, she glanced at the people in the house, and then walked steadily towards the Queen Mother and bowed.

The Queen Mother said: "Hurry up!" You don't have to be that way. ”

Concubine He said: "Because the concubines are dedicated to the Buddha and rarely walk around the palace, they do not often come to the Queen Mother to ask for peace, and also ask the Queen Mother to forgive their sins." ”

The Queen Mother said: "You get up!" Gui Yue, give a seat to the concubine. ”

When she sat down, everyone in the house came to salute. When Concubine He saw Concubine Xian in the crowd, she smiled and said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival in Beijing has just been released, I wonder if Concubine Xian has heard the news?" ”

Concubine Xian's eyes lit up and she said with a smile: "What you brought here, Concubine, must be good news." ”

Concubine He smiled: "Exactly, your nephew Xue Gongzi was lifted, although he is not Xie Yuanlang, but he is also in the top ten!" There is a successor to your mother's family, and Xue Gongzi will not be able to run away from the Golden Palace in the future! ”
