Chapter 70 Lotus Porridge

Qixiang Palace

"Niangniang, today is the tenth day, are you still going?"

Concubine Cheng was brushing her eyebrows, and then said: "Go, why don't you go, you will let the lotus porridge prepared by the palace be packed." ”

Seeing this, Zhuliu knew that his master Niangniang had made up his mind, so he didn't say anything more, just frowned, and hurriedly passed on the order.

Yongshou Palace

The Empress Dowager had just finished taking a nap, saying that she was taking a nap, but in fact, she couldn't sleep at all, she just closed her eyes and recuperated, and after getting up lazily, she took the handkerchief handed over by the palace maid and wiped her face, and turned the Buddha beads in her hand, and saw Su Ma come in with a heavy heart, "Gege, the concubine of Qixiang Palace is here again." ”

"Oh, really?"

As soon as the Empress Dowager stretched out her hand, a clever little palace maid stepped forward to hand over a cup of tea, rinsed her mouth, and then said unhurriedly: "How long has she been waiting outside?" ”

"I've been waiting for an hour, Gege wants to see me?"

"It's only been an hour, don't worry," the Empress Dowager waved her hand, "The mourning family will have to chant for the first emperor later, if she wants to wait, she will continue to wait." After saying that, he got up and went to the Buddha hall.

Su Ma responded, "Yes." ”

After listening to Su Ma's words, Concubine Cheng hurriedly said: "The Empress Dowager is full of true feelings, which really moved the concubines, and asked Lasu Malagu to tell the Empress Dowager that the concubines are willing to continue to wait, as long as the Empress Dowager is willing to see the concubines, the concubines are willing to wait." ”

Su Ma's face changed slightly, and he sighed quietly in his heart, "Don't worry, Concubine Cheng, the old slave will go and tell the Queen Mother." ”

"Then it's a lot of trouble for Su Mala."

Cheng Concubine waited for an afternoon, and drank five cups of tea in Yongshou Palace, and drank the bitter taste of tea from her stomach to her mouth, and the Empress Dowager finally came out of the Buddhist hall.

"Gege, is Concubine Cheng still waiting outside?"

Seeing that the Empress Dowager seemed to have forgotten about the matter, Su Mala muttered a whisper on the side.

The Empress Dowager raised her eyelids and smiled slightly, "The mourning family remembers that Concubine Cheng brought lotus porridge today?" ”

"Exactly, this lotus porridge is not only fragrant and phlegm-dissolving but also calming the heat, the lotus at this time is the freshest, it is a good time to drink lotus porridge."

"As soon as you say this, this lotus porridge has become something amazing, no matter what, the mourning family just wants to take this bite, so let Concubine Cheng come in."

"Yes."

After Concubine Cheng came in, she didn't dare to speak much, so she stood aside and waited for the Queen Mother to eat.

"You don't have to be so restrained," after eating a bite of lotus porridge, the Empress Dowager said lightly: "The lotus porridge in your palace is really good, and it is very suitable for the taste of the mourning family." ”

"The Empress Dowager Xie praised that as long as the Empress Dowager loves to eat, the concubines are willing to send it to the Empress Dowager every day."

"Su Ma, look, this concubine is also a little sincere, the mourning family only said that they love to eat, and they will send it to the mourning family every day."

The Empress Dowager put down the bowl, "The mourning family knows that you are usually busy, so dare you run to the eternal longevity palace of the mourning family every day." ”

Concubine Cheng quickly knelt down, although it was already summer, she still felt that there were bursts of cold sweat on her back.

"Please also ask the Empress Dowager to atone for her sins, the concubine was arrogant and ignorant before, and I hope that the Empress Dowager can ignore the past suspicions and help the concubine again, and the concubine is willing to be a cow and a horse for the Empress Dowager, and she will never give up!"

The Empress Dowager glanced at Concubine Cheng who was kneeling on the ground and ignored it, and after beckoning, a servant withdrew the leftover dinner just now, and the slaves who went back and forth in the Yongshou Palace saw Concubine Cheng kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly lowered her head and did not dare to make a sound.

Then the Empress Dowager asked Lama Su Ma to put on a game of chess, and after studying it carefully, she didn't seem to see a person kneeling on the ground at all.

When the third watch sounded, the Queen Mother yawned, and then looked at Concubine Cheng who was kneeling on the ground, "Why are you still kneeling here, Concubine Cheng?" ”

The Empress Dowager looked surprised, "Su Ma, hurry up and help Cheng Concubine up, you say, why did she kneel there before the mourning family said anything, and those who don't know think that the mourning family is punishing her." ”

Concubine Cheng knelt for nearly two hours, her legs were already trembling a little, "It's all the concubine's fault, and I ask the empress dowager to punish her." ”

"You kid, seeing you like this, it's too late for the mourning family to feel distressed, how can they punish you?"

"Su Ma, quickly bring the best bruise medicine in the Mourning Palace to Concubine Cheng, don't fall ill at a young age."

"Concubine Xie Empress Dowager pity."

Seeing that Concubine Cheng was now looking respectful, the Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction.

"It's getting late, you go back first, don't play, I'll bring this lotus porridge to the mourning family tomorrow, remember that this lotus porridge must be cooked with morning dew in the early morning to be considered authentic."

Concubine Cheng's heart moved, and she hurriedly responded, "Yes, the concubine obeys the order, and the Empress Dowager Xie is promoted." ”

-------------------------------------

The next day, Kangxi just got off the morning court, passing by the imperial garden, he heard a burst of laughter in the distance, and when he got closer, it turned out that it was Cheng Concubine and a few little palace maids who were picking dew by the lotus pond.

Today, Concubine Cheng wore a pink and white cardigan dress, her hair was not pulled up, but part of it was left scattered around her waist, although she was not coated with grease powder, but her face was flushed, and she looked natural and fresh.

"Does Concubine Cheng come here every day to pick dew?"

Kangxi touched the jade wrench on his thumb, and his eyes were full of the shadow of Cheng Concubine at this time.

Liang Jiugong thought for a moment and replied: "Exactly, Concubine Cheng heard that the Empress Dowager has lost her appetite recently and loves to eat lotus porridge boiled with dew, so she gets up early every day and comes here to collect dew." ”

"Mama Huangma's appetite is losing? Why haven't I heard about this? When Kangxi heard this, he turned his head to stare at Liang Jiugong.

Liang Jiugong replied tremblingly under Kangxi's gaze: "Back to the emperor, it was the empress dowager who was afraid that the emperor would worry, so she specially ordered the servants to hide it from the emperor." ”

Kangxi sighed, "Hey, the imperial grandmother is also well-intentioned," since the last time he had a stiff fight with the empress dowager for Shu Wan's matter, he would only go to Yongshou Palace every day when he asked for peace, thinking that it was the imperial grandmother who worked hard to teach him and protect him, but now it seems that he has not fulfilled his responsibility as a grandson.

"I still won't go back to the Qianqing Palace, and ask someone to drive the Yongshou Palace."

"Huh." Liang Jiugong showed a happy expression on his face, and hurriedly beckoned the people behind him to follow quickly.

After going to Yongshou Palace, the grandparents and grandchildren were deeply touched when they met, and the empress dowager was also very loving and cared for Kangxi.

That night, Kangxi turned over the brand of Cheng Concubine, and then it was a five-day favor, which couldn't help but make the women in the palace red-eyed with jealousy, but jealousy is jealousy, everyone knows that it is the Queen Mother who supports Cheng Concubine behind her, and naturally no one dares to stumble on Cheng Concubine.

Becoming a concubine is infinitely beautiful, but not necessarily for other people in the palace.

Since the last time the beauty sha happened, Kangxi has never ordered Wu Ya's bed, and he went to Xianfu Palace a few times just to see the little brother, Wu Ya has become the laughing stock of the palace, she was originally very uncomfortable, plus the little brother Yinqi cried non-stop this day, and the crying was out of breath, which made people upset when they listened.

It's just that the little brother can't be coaxed well, Wu Yashi glared at the thin little brother in his arms fiercely, the little brother is now skinny, the flesh on both sides of his cheeks is sunken in, and a pair of round eyes are particularly scary on such a face.

The hatred in her eyes gushed out, why did other little brothers look so white and fat, why did her little brother look like a thin monkey.

At this moment, the little brother suddenly vomited again, Wu Yashi impatiently handed the little brother to the palace maid next to him, looking at the puddle of things that the little brother had just vomited on her, and her heart became even more angry.

This is a new flag costume that the Internal Affairs Office just made for her, and she still wants to wear this to see the emperor, but she didn't expect to be ruined by this little thing, Wu Yashi can only put on a new flag costume, because she is very annoyed, so she took a few palace maids to the imperial garden to go around and relax.

As soon as he walked to a rockery, he heard the voices of two little palace maids from behind, and Wu Yashi hurriedly hid.

A little palace maid said: "I really thought that Cheng Concubine Niangniang was so capable and would return to favor so quickly!" ”

Another even sharper voice said: "Oh, Cheng Concubine Niangniang is young and beautiful, and it is not a matter of time before she recovers her favor." ”

"That's what I said, but in my opinion, I'm afraid that Wu Ya's clan will soon run out of fun."

"That's it," a burst of mocking laughter came, "it's obviously a minion, and he wants to fly on the branch to become a phoenix, and he is not afraid to give his feet away!" ”

"Hahaha, my sister is really good at laughing, but it's also, that Wu Yashi also gave birth to a little brother, but it's like not giving birth, and I haven't seen the emperor run to her a few more times."

"I think she just didn't have a rich life, but she had the disease of wealth."

"It's still reasonable for my sister to say, I also heard that she even wanted to cut off the favor of the jade concubine a few days ago, it's really arrogant."

"Phew, she's worthy of it!"

The voice gradually faded away, thinking that the two little palace maids had already walked away just now, and Wu Yashi, whose eyes were on fire, walked out from behind the rockery. She clenched her fists, a mouthful of silver teeth gurgling, and the words of the two little palace maids just now were poking at her heart.

She hated, hated the useless little brother she gave birth to, hated Cheng Concubine, hated Yu Concubine, hated all these people who looked down on her.

"Little master, you dissipate your anger, and the slave will chase back those two ignorant little palace maids, and let the little master dispose of them."

Xia He, who was on the side, saw that Wu Yashi was already extremely angry, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him.

Unexpectedly, Wu Yashi just said lightly, "No need, let's go back to the palace." ”

After returning to the palace, Wu Ya ordered someone to bring the little elder brother over, and then let all the minions guard outside.

Wu Yashi looked at this little person in the crib, and in it was her own flesh and blood lying in it, of course she loved it, but then she thought of the feeling of being high, the feeling of being admired, she was completely lost.

Not very skillfully picked up the little brother, the little brother felt uncomfortable and began to cry, this time Wu Yashi patted the little brother on the back, surprisingly patient coaxing, "Good, Yinqi is good, it's not that Eniang is too ruthless, you must not hate Eniang when the time comes." ”

The little brother seemed to feel the danger and began to cry louder, Wu Yashi was afraid of arousing suspicion, so he quickly put the little brother down, and let people come in to serve, looking at the little brother who was already holding back the purple face, Wu Ya's heart became more and more firm...
