Chapter 9: The Queen Mother Who Can't See Clearly

"That's their duty, their destiny. Each of us is the same, we always have to go where fate wants us to go. ”

"Fourth brother, is there anything you can't lose?" I'm curious about what he can't afford to lose.

The fourth master looked at me and said very seriously: "Yes! I have something I want to protect at all costs. You, Yinxiang, Yinzhen, child. ”

I? I never thought he would say that, should I believe him? No! He questioned me again and again. Shouldn't you trust him? His eyes were so sincere. Didn't you say you'd give him another chance? Trust him...... Trust him......

"Fourth brother, will you protect me?" Say, say you're going to protect me.

The fourth master nodded and said, "Don't worry." ”

I smiled, no matter what the future holds, at least for this moment, he was sincere. Perhaps, that's enough. It turns out that forgiving a person is sometimes simple. A gentle look from him and a sincere word are enough to melt a heart.

I suddenly remembered something and said to the fourth master, "Fourth brother, wait a minute." With that, I ran upstairs to my bedroom, took out the baggage I had brought back from the closet, and took out two safety locks from it.

I went downstairs and handed it to the fourth master: "This is for Xiao Hongyun and Xiao Hong, how are those two children doing?" ”

The fourth master put away the peace lock, and said with a somewhat gloomy look: "Hongshi is very good, but Hongyun's health is getting worse and worse." ”

"What's going on?"

"I don't know, since the beginning of the year, it's been getting worse day by day. I don't know what sin I have created, now there are only these three children, but Hongyun is like this. He sighed, I knew that Hongyun was going to be this year, and I felt sad to see him so sad. I took his hand and comforted: "Fourth brother, be relieved, Hongyun will be fine." ”

You see, we are always telling lies, because the truth is often a secret that cannot be told......

On April 27, seven days after I returned, I got up early in the morning, freshened up, and prepared to enter the palace. The Queen Mother has summoned me several times, and I have pushed them all over.

After entering the palace, I went straight to the Queen Mother, who was chanting, and I asked the old lady not to bother, so I knelt down on the mat next to the Queen Mother and accompanied her to chant. After a while, the Queen Mother stopped, saw me beside her, and quickly helped me up, and said angrily: "Why don't you let them call the mourning family when you come?" You are still weak, what are you doing kneeling here and reciting scriptures with the old woman of the mourning family. ”

I sat down with her holding my hand and said to me, "The mourning family looks better at your complexion, and the wounds are all healed?" I heard from them that the maid you brought out of the palace is gone? ”

"Worried the imperial grandmother, the wound healed well. As for the girl, she was frightened and suddenly died. Yubing had already informed her family and given her some money. It's all taken care of, don't worry, grandmother. ”

"You kid, you're safe. You were only thirteen years old when you came back, and now you are a sixteen-year-old girl. What do you think? ”

My head "buzzed", and I hurriedly said: "Imperial grandmother, Yubing is still young, don't worry." ”

But the Queen Mother said: "What's small? Although the royal daughter marries late, you are already sixteen, which is not small. Do you have someone you like? If not, Seventeen has not yet been married, and the mourning family seems to be a good match for you. It's just that his mother's family is not a prestigious family, and he has wronged you a little. ”

"Imperial grandmother, I have a sister-brother relationship with Yinli, although we are very compatible, but let me be his blessing, I'm afraid we will all be very awkward. Besides, you know, Huang Ama once said that he would marry me to the little eighteenth. Chrysostom said that there is no reason to marry me to his other brothers after the eighteenth is gone. And, you know what I'm here for. Now to get married, I'm afraid it's not the right time. "How can I get married?

The Queen Mother was silent for a long time, clapped my hand and said, "The mourning family understands, so let it be you." But if you have someone you like, you have to tell the mourning family, and the mourning family will call the shots for you. Yu Bing, those things, the mourning family knows. I love the Xinjue Luo family, this child who is not angry, I'm sorry for you, the mourning family is old, don't ask for anything else, the mourning family only hopes that this Qing Dynasty will not be defeated under the nose of the mourning family. But you are still young, you are a good child, the mourning family wants you, protect yourself, the emperor will never be unfavorable to you in the future, you can rest assured, if he dares, the mourning family will tell the emperor not to let him enter the temple! ”

"Imperial grandmother, don't worry, Yu Bing will take good care of herself, and she will also watch out for those bad guys!"

The Queen Mother smiled, gently pinched my face and said, "You ghost spirit, okay, go to the Qianqing Palace and ask for peace." Remember, no matter what happens, your face must be calm, you must not show your face, you must be aware of it, and your steps must be steady. ”

I was stunned for a moment, looking at the gentle face of the Queen Mother, thinking about the life of the Queen Mother in history, with a few strokes, only saying that she was a generous and reasonable, slightly wooden Mongolian queen, but is it really just that? In the past two years, I have only said that she has her own wrists. But it seems, I still haven't seen her clearly.

I retracted my thoughts, got up and said, "Yubing retreats." ”

Slowly walked all the way to the Qianqing Palace, Liang Jiugong was guarding the door of the study, and when he saw me, he hurriedly came over to ask for peace: "Please Gege'an!" Why did Gege come here today? ”

"Father-in-law Liang, hurry up, I feel better today, so I will enter the palace to greet the imperial grandmother and the imperial ama. No, I just called the emperor's grandmother and came over. What about Huang Ama? ”

"Discuss with the adults inside, you can go inside." He said and pushed open the door, I entered the door to see, Zhang Tingyu, Li Guangdi, Chen Tingjing and Chen Zhuangxu and other adults were there, I first invited Kangxi Ye'an, and then greeted several adults: "Yubing has seen all of you." ”

"Geggian!"

Kangxi Ye said to me with a smile: "Yubing, come here, sit here with Huang Ama." ”

I sat next to him and he smiled and asked me, "How was today?" Feel better? Are the wounds all healed? ”

I nodded and said, "It's much better, and the wounds are healing well, except for occasional headaches." It's no big deal, don't worry. What is Huang Ama still discussing with the adults at this hour? Otherwise, Yubing should go back to the small courtyard first. "The ancestors of the Qing Dynasty taught that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, even if I am not a harem, as a woman, I have to avoid it sometimes.

"It's nothing, it's just a matter of compiling a dictionary, and there are some things that have been lucky outside of the Sky Patrol. Yu Bing, since you are ready, you will accompany Huang Ama to the grassland! ”

"Yu Bing obeys!"
