Nala raised his hand and said gently, "Get up, don't be too restrained." ”

After everyone got up, Nala saw Concubine Qin standing with Concubine Yi, walked over and said with a smile: "Is Concubine still well?" ”

Concubine Qin hurriedly said when she heard this: "Thank you for the queen's concern, it's quite stable, but occasionally I have a headache and brain fever, after all, I'm old, and I can't compare to when I was young." ”

"That's good, the concubine must take care of herself, especially at this time, the weather is hot and sultry, and she is most prone to heat stroke." Saying this, Nala said again: "There are a few Korean ginseng plants in the palace, which have been kept in the treasury and have never been used. ”

Concubine Qin had also come to the palace for banquets in the past, but she had never seen the Nala clan so polite, and she was quite flattered and said: "The queen mother is so generous, I really feel ashamed." ”

Nala said with a smile: "The concubine must not say such a thing, you are the elder of the palace, it is right to send you something to recuperate, and this time it is thanks to the seventeenth master to escort Concubine Xi Guifei that she was sent back to the palace." ”

At the mention of this, Concubine Qin's face quickly flashed a trace of discomfort, although she quickly disappeared, but she was still seen by the Nala clan, turned her head to see Ping'er beside Concubine Qin, saw her eyebrows and eyes, quite a bit of posture, and chuckled: "Is this the concubine's newly selected maid, she looks delicate." ”

Concubine Qin smiled slightly, she didn't want to say too much about Ping'er's origin, she just said: "Ping'er, don't you want to thank Queen Xie for your appreciation." ”

Ping'er hurriedly agreed, and said very nervously: "Thank you for the queen's appreciation." In fact, the slave is just a coarse appearance, how can she get into the eyes of the mother. ”

Nala smiled, didn't say much, after waiting for a while, Hongli and Hongshi accompanied Yinzhen over, and the banquet officially began after Yinzhen sat down.

Hongli and Hongshi were at the same table, and when no one was paying attention, Hongli lowered his voice and said: "I have already pushed the crown prince as you said, when did you release Zhaohui them." ”

Hongshi took a sip of the high-quality pear blossom brew and said, "What is the fourth brother doing in such a hurry, I will naturally release it when it is time to release it." ”

His words made Hongli's brows rise with a hint of anger, "You want to go back on your word? Hongshi, if you dare to touch a hair of Zhaohui for them, I will tell Huang Ama about your ugly deeds! ”

Hongshi played with the wine glass in his hand and said: "Hey, fourth brother, don't get me wrong, how could I lie to you, second brother, I will return them to you intact in two days, but don't forget to keep their mouths shut up, otherwise no matter the ends of the world, someone will take their heads." ”

Hongli sneered: "Since I agreed, I will definitely do it, but Hongshi, Skynet is restored, even if I don't say it, one day, the ugly things you have done will be revealed." ”

"Don't worry about this, fourth brother." Hongshi drank all the wine in the cup in one gulp, and motioned to the palace people not far away to fill it for him again, and then pulled Hongli and said: "Okay, fourth brother, let's go together to toast to Huang Ama and your mother." ”

Hongli broke away from his hand, and said with a smile: "Second brother go to pay respects first, I'll go later." ”

After Hongshi left, Hongday, who was sitting on the other side, came over and whispered, "Fourth brother, what was he talking to you about just now?" ”

"It's nothing, it's just a few casual words." After Hongli replied casually, he looked at Hongday, who was not the slightest stranger with him, and said: "I'm not here for half a year, do you have a good student to study and listen to Huang Ama's words?" ”

"Naturally, there is, but after the fourth brother is gone, Huang Ama often stays in the Heart Nourishing Palace for several days, and if I don't take a step, I can rarely see Huang Ama once." When he said this, Hongtian was a little disappointed, but he immediately regained his smile, "But fortunately, the fourth brother and the noble concubine are back, I haven't seen Huang Ama smile so happily for a long time." Without waiting for Hongli to speak, he said again: "By the way, fourth brother, I heard that Huang Ama originally wanted to canonize you as the crown prince, but you refused to accept it, and in desperation, Huang Ama renamed you Prince Bao, is that so?" Seeing Hongli nodded, he hurriedly said: "Fourth brother, what are you doing here, why don't you want the prince who got it, in case the second brother takes the opportunity to take it away in the future, wouldn't it be bad?" He and you have always been at odds with each other. ”

Hongli glanced at him seriously, and suddenly said, "Hongday, do you believe the fourth brother?" ”

Hongtian was asked inexplicably, but he still nodded heavily and said, "I naturally believe in the fourth brother." ”

Hongli glanced up at the starry night sky, and said word by word: "Just believe it, the fourth brother will definitely not let you down." ”

All along, he has no ambition to take the throne, but Eniang needs his protection, and if he loses in this battle for the throne, the queen will definitely not let Eniang go. Moreover, with Hongshi's heart, letting him sit on this throne will only end up destroying everything that Emperor Ama has worked so hard to protect.

Therefore, even if he has no ambition, he will fight for the position of the prince, firmly grasp the Qing Dynasty in his hands, and let him protect the rivers and mountains that the emperor's grandfather and Huang Ama have devoted their lives to protecting.

Pushing off the crown prince is just an expedient measure, and in the future, he will take all this back with interest, and when the time comes, Hongshi will no longer have the strength to compete with him.

I don't know why, listening to Hongli's words, Hongli felt that the blood in his body seemed to be boiling, and he couldn't calm down for a long time, and it took a long time before he spit out a sentence, "Well, in the future, no matter what the fourth brother sends, I will try my best to do it for the fourth brother, even if the fourth brother wants me to die!" ”

His words warmed Hongli's heart, and he patted Hongli's shoulder with a smile and said: "Silly fifth, what did the fourth brother tell you to die for, what our brothers should do is to work together to walk the road ahead." Saying this, he remembered something, "Hongyang, where are you on an errand now?" ”

"I just went to the household last month." Hongli's words made Hongli frown slightly, "I remember that the second brother was in the household department, why did you go there too?" ”

"It's because he's here, that's why I'm going, otherwise I don't know what he did, I begged Huang Ama for a long time about this, and Huang Ama agreed. I remember that the fourth brother used to be in the household department, and when I come back this time, will Huang Ama still let you go to the household department? ”

"I don't want to go to the household department right now." Hongli's answer puzzled Hongday, the household department is in charge of the country's grain and grass, and can keep an eye on Hongshi's every move, what's wrong?

"Where does the fourth brother want to go?" Facing Hongday's question, Hongli smiled and said: "When the time comes, you will know the way, let's not talk about this first, let's go to the Huang Ma Jing Bar together." ”
