On the second day after the prince returned home, Fu Jin and the prince sent six boxes of gifts to the emperor and the queen mother. The other five boxes are all large or relatively large, that is, the one containing the small box is not carefully and meticulously introduced. Anyway, there are names on the box, and whoever gives it to whom, who knows that the Queen Mother actually deducted a lot. Of course, those who should have given it still give, but the number has shrunk. Fortunately, no one knows what the gift from the prince is, so he doesn't have any opinion. The queen's status is the highest, and she is still the niece and granddaughter of the queen mother, so she naturally gets the most gifts. When he got the gift, he behaved as the Queen Mother described, "protecting the dog". I didn't have time to look at it and took it back to the dormitory. The second most is Concubine E, if it weren't for the fear that her usual dignified and virtuous image would be damaged, she would definitely scream loudly. Among her gifts was also a piece of alloy jewelry, which was a peony, very showy, red with gold edges. Concubine E's health is not good, and her son died young, but she has always forced her face to laugh and support the concubine's shelf. She still wants to conceive again, give birth to a son, and have a body to rely on in the future, and she doesn't want to fall, and the pain in her heart is indescribable, so her face is very pale. The grease powder is not good when it is thick, and it can't be covered if it is thin. But this red peony set off her face a lot more ruddy.

Yun'er gave her a pair of bracelets made of crimson agate pieces, which was a very common type of agate products, and who knew that it was exactly to her taste. The small pieces of agate were all processed into exactly the same shape and worn on an elastic golden string. The Queen Mother said: "This is the side Fujin of the Rui Wangfu who sold his antiques and bought them for silver." ”

Before Yun'er went to a foreign land, she didn't even have the qualifications to enter the palace, and the Queen Mother didn't let Fujin bring Yun'er here, because Fujin didn't want to bring it, because she was afraid that those concubines would annoy Yun'er by talking and scolding Huai. Yun'er wants to say mean things, she doesn't even have to think about it, saying it can block people into a rat hole. It's just that I'm afraid of getting into trouble.

In front of Concubine E, Yun'er was not as decent as the lowest-ranking woman in the emperor and agreed. This is the feeling of Concubine E. Side Fujin, cut, which green onion, which garlic? It wasn't until the name of Princess Gulun Ruiyun was often mentioned by the Queen Mother and Su Moer that Concubine E felt that the Ruiwang Mansion was of great importance. Princess Gulun Ruiyun is the daughter of the Queen Mother and the sister-in-law of the Emperor. Only then did I understand that the reason why the Queen Mother was so proud to promote the Chen family was because the Queen Mother was also from the side Fujin. Whether it's a concubine or a few orders, before the son became the emperor, it was a dish on the queen mother's table, how you want to fiddle with you and pull you, you have to be obedient! Which of your sons has a chance to become emperor?

The Queen Mother took out the gift that Prince Rui gave her when she was fine. The current queen mother is relatively worry-free, although the emperor often fights with her, but he doesn't dare to mess with her mother. The word filial piety is still put at the forefront. When she saw these gifts, the Queen Mother sighed with emotion:

"Su Moer, do you say that this Rui Wang Ye is too kind or too cunning? How can you give these good things to this palace? In the past, the palace rarely met him, and he didn't like to go to the former emperor's woman, and he couldn't hide. ”

"Originally, the slave maid also had doubts in his mind, but now he understands that Lord Rui just wants you and the emperor to support him."

"If only you had said so, and hadn't found out what he was trying to do? None of the imperial historians impeached him. You say, how much silver did he get for these gifts to this palace? said that the silver was bought by Fang Fujin's father's antiques in exchange for the silver over there, and a little woman could give up 120,000 taels of silver? The palace gave them a reward of 1,000 taels, and felt that it was too little, and that one ivory was more than 1,000 taels, and there were so many lifelike flowers carved into it. And that ding, that jade unicorn, and that phoenix, are all very valuable! . ”

"You're just thinking too much, too much. They can't afford it, and they won't slap their swollen faces and become fat. Maybe the price of things over there is cheaper than ours. Su Moer guessed correctly.

"No, no, you didn't hear Lord Rui say, that country over there, the territory is about the same as the Qing Dynasty, but the population is 1.3 billion, how dense is that? With such a large population, can things be cheaper? "It is worthy of being the Empress Dowager of Xiaozhuang, and she is much more sensitive than Su Moer in this regard. It's only been a few days, and the business is up. I heard the emperor say that the merchant who sells hot and cold drinks has lined up at Zhengyangmen Gate for everyone to line up at the door. That thing is not hungry or thirsty, why do so many people buy it? ”

"Don't you like to drink too?" Su Moer covered her mouth and smiled.

"It is said that girls are extroverted, Su Moer is becoming more and more towards the Rui Wangfu, and she will marry the Rui Wangye in the future."

"Queen Mother! The slave is really angry with you. Su Moer's mouth flattened several times.

"This palace is right. Are you really ready not to marry for the rest of your life? How good is Lord Rui, good looks and good character, isn't it enough to match you? ”

"Queen Mother! The slave is now in her early forties......"

"There is a door, there is a door, I listen to what you mean, I also have a little thought about Lord Rui. You just make a side blessing for him, so that he won't even have someone to talk to when he gets old. ”

"The slave will talk to you alone!"

"Okay, okay, don't talk about that. It's Hongu who is delaying you. ”

Su Moer wanted to cry! The heart said, why didn't you say it earlier if you have this thought? As the saying goes: forty is not old for a man, but forty for a woman is hay". People have "Sai Yuhuan" as the main room, and they have been in love for more than 20 years, and there is such an excellent and capable side room as Princess Ruiyun, it doesn't hurt enough to love enough, where do I put a half-old lady!

So, he reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said: "Don't make the slave and maid happy, the slave and maid said that they will serve you for the rest of their lives, and if they say it, it will count, what delay is not delayed, what does it have to do with the slave and maid, the slave and maid will make you tea." ”

"You're really a tendon, even if the palace doesn't say it, you can go." She didn't know that Su Mo'er, who had always been loyal to her, also had a grudge against her, of course she would not betray her, but there was also an estrangement.

Su Mo'er has always had a good impression of Prince Rui and his wife, and he has come over for decades, and he has always been loyal to Taizong and the current emperor, and he has risked his life to protect them, and the queen mother is still suspicious of him, jealous of him, and now she is using him. Don't they feel it at all? The number of times the prince entered the palace was much less than that of Fujin, mainly because he was the same age as the queen mother. The identity of the Queen Mother is an elder, if people have any bad thoughts, the Queen Mother is no problem, and he will be unlucky to be extinct. However, Su Moer's impression of Lord Rui was like a god, pure, clean, and spotless. Just because he has insisted on not marrying the side room for so many years, he is a rare affectionate and righteous person. Later, he married Chen's side Fujin, just for the sake of the heir, otherwise he would not let the second woman enter the door. After Chen entered the mansion, he still loved and was considerate of this Han woman from a humble background, instead of throwing away his hand after a few days like other princes, and only recognized her child after giving birth.

She often felt aggrieved in her heart for Lord Rui and felt that he was not worthy. Doing so much still makes people suspicious, a woman in Fang Fujin can do that, and Concubine E still has to be jealous of her and calculate her, how difficult it is, and the Queen Mother takes other people's things for granted.

Su Moer is not a person who has no right and wrong, but in order to have a place for himself to survive, he has to remain silent.

Anwangfu. Prince An Yue Le was angry on the seat in the upper hall of his house. Lord Rui gave himself a box of gifts, and when he opened the box, he checked that every child had a share, and I don't know how the side Fujin Hesheri clan was distributed, and there was a share of Da Ge Hui'er. He didn't think it was forgotten, or that it was any kid who took the two. The gossip also heard that the Hesheri clan was abusing Hui'er behind her back. Hui'er was born to Aunt Lin, the dowry maid of the Bo Erjigit clan of Changfu Jin, Aunt Lin is a girl from the Han family, of course, Borzigit lived in the Horqin grassland before she got married, once when she went to the temple to offer incense, she met two Mongolian young people snatching this girl, and asked the bodyguards around her to beat away the two guys and save the Lin family. When asked who else was in her family, she said that she had come from Guanli to look for relatives. The family suffered an accident, and I heard that my sister was sold to the grassland, and I came to find my sister, and I met these two people. Borzigit left her alone. Because this woman not only knows how to read, but also counts accounts, which is very valued by the Borzigit clan, when Emperor Taizong married again between Manchu and Mongolia, Huang Taiji selected Bumu Butai, the daughter of Mongolian Belle Zhaisang (that is, the current Queen Mother), and chose the distant cousin of the current Queen Mother for Prince An, which is the Mongolian Gege who was the concubine of Prince An. She brought Miss Lin to Shengjing as a dowry maid. At that time, Wang Yuele of Anjun was a meritorious prince who advocated Han culture, and he was very optimistic about Miss Lin, the marrying maid around Chang Fujin, and Chang Fujin also needed a cronie maid to help him solidify his favor, so that Miss Lin became the aunt of Prince An. If she is also a Mongolian, it is inevitable to be a side Fujin. It's a pity that at that time, there was no Han woman who became the side blessing of any prince and county king. Prince An is very good to Chang Fujin, but he is even better to Aunt Lin. Because Aunt Lin is not a maid of the same level who serves tea and water, she is not only literate and can settle accounts, but also can play the piano, draw, and play Go. Prince An is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, and getting Aunt Lin is like a treasure, which is really a bit like Emperor Shunzhi meeting Concubine Dong E. Chang Fujin is a Mongolian girl, enthusiastic and unrestrained, but in exotic words, the cultural grade is too low, not to mention that I don't know any Chinese characters, and Mongolian is also a mess. She is characterized by being very virtuous, caring and caring for Prince An.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and Aunt Lin had a blood collapse after giving birth to Hui'er and passed away. Prince Ann was depressed for a long time. At that time, he often went to the battlefield, so he entrusted Hui'er to Chang Fujin to raise. However, Chang Fujin also had to manage the affairs of the entire mansion, and he also gave birth to a son, so he handed over Hui'er to the side Fujin Hesheri clan. This Hesheri herself is the eldest lady of the big family, and she can't help the oil bottle when it is poured, and her own children are all nurses and maids, where will she do her best to take care of the children of a deceased aunt? handed over Hui'er to a maid to take care of. It can be regarded as Hui'er's life, the maid carried Hui'er and kicked the shuttlecock, and Hui'er fell headfirst from her shoulder to the ground, but it was okay!

Later, the Hesheri clan had a daughter of their own, and their attitude towards Hui'er was even worse. As soon as she could walk, she asked her to look at her sister, and her sister beat her when she cried. How old is she? I can't take care of myself yet. In this way, Hui'er began to live in dire straits, and every day she was beaten and pinched in ignorance, not allowed to cry, not allowed to eat, and kneeling. Like a little mouse, he covered his head when he saw Heschelis.

The next year, Prince An was injured in the leg on the battlefield, and the emperor ordered him to return to his house to recuperate. On the way, he met two assassins, one of whom was killed on the spot by Prince An's guards, and the other escaped with his injuries. Not far behind Prince An's convoy, I saw a covered carriage parked there. He drilled into the car without hesitation. He was confident that he had a sword in his hand, and if there were people in the car, all the swords would be dead. Who knew that as soon as the curtain was lifted, he was kicked off the carriage and stepped on by the horse, and before he could escape, he was caught up by Prince An's guards.

Wang Ye An asked who was in the handlebar-type car, and the handlebar type said: "The women in the car were bought by a small employer from Zunhua County and then sold to the kiln. ”

"Who just kicked the man with the sword?" Prince Ann asked.

"Naturally, it's the woman at the door. There were several more in it, and she got on the bus later, and she couldn't squeeze in inside. ”

"You get this woman who kicked the assassin out of the car, I have something to say. What about the buyer's patron? ”

"In the car in the back."

Prince An opened the curtain and was stunned, there were actually five or six young women crowded into such a small carriage. The one who was by the door was twenty-seven or eighteen years old. They were all tied up like rice dumplings, and their mouths were stuffed with cloth. Wang Ye An pointed to the woman at the door and asked, "You kicked that person under the car?" ”

The woman nodded. Prince An said to the guards, "Untie the rope from her, I bought this woman." ”

The two men in the car behind rushed over with shouts, and just as they wanted to curse, Prince An's guards held them down and scolded them in a low voice: "Acquaintance, this is ...... It's the minister of the DPRK and China, just to buy a woman in your car. ”

"It should be given!"

"Give him twenty taels. Let them go first. ”

"This eldest sister, you saved me, I will also help you, come back to the house with me."

"But this lord, the little woman didn't kick him to save you. It's just that he has a sword in his hand, and he has a fierce look on his face, there is no place in the car, and he didn't kill us all when he came in? Just ......"

"If I say that to you, I know that you are a real person. You have no intention of saving people, but after all, it is this king who has your help, otherwise I don't know what will happen. You know where these two people bought you, right? Would you like to go to that kind of place? ”

The woman shook her head vigorously, and Prince An said: "That's good, it's not a problem to go back to the house with this king and raise you for a lifetime." ”
