140 Coffins

Ten days after the morasisance, Yehnara?? Wanzhen needs to open a funeral to send an obituary, and the edict of Zai Xiang personally invited dozens of monks from the Taimiao to sing and chant the death in the mansion of Prince Alcohol, and spend three days after the death of the soul, and set up an altar in the virtuous king Fujin Yehenara?? Wanzhen's former residence, so that more than a dozen shamans, followed by three days of redress and cleansing the spell.

I estimate that Cixi must also know that she is not a good person, and her sins have always been deep, so whenever she encounters this kind of thing, Cixi has nothing to say, saying that it is a mistake, but after all, it can be regarded as giving Yehnara ?? Wanzhen was supreme honored after her death.

Three days ago, Zai Xiang personally went to send Yehnara ?? Wanzhen's coffin came out of the funeral, and after returning in the evening, he had dinner in Jingren Palace, after the meal, Ying'er served tea, he used the lid in his hand to faint the tea soup, and said to me with great interest: "Zhen'er, who do you guess I met outside today?" ”

I asked, "Who?" ”

He said, "Guess! ”

I thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "The slave can't guess," and pushed him again, "The emperor won't sell it." ”

Zai Yan slowly put down the teacup, took my hand and said, "I have met many people with reform aspirations outside. ”

I was pleasantly surprised, "Really? ”

Zai Yan nodded, "These people with lofty ideals really opened my eyes, and I only learned today that the people have already been boiling about 'books on the bus', but the Metropolitan Procuratorate has not played them," said Zai Yan with a sigh, relieved his mood, and said, "Wen Tingshi also established a 'strong society' among the people, translating and printing books, and selling books translated by Tongwenguan and Shanghai Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau. ”

I laughed, "It seems that the emperor has benefited a lot from leaving the Forbidden City." ”

Zai Yan also laughed when he heard this, "One of these people is named Kang Youwei, he advocates 'the goodness of Western Law', I think it is quite interesting, but ......" He was halfway through his words, his tone became slurred, and there seemed to be some reservations in his words, and then he asked me, "What does Zhen'er think?" ”

I smiled and said: "The emperor's words are really strange, the slave has never seen this person named Kang Youwei, how can he make a conclusion casually, besides, ......"

Seeing that I hadn't finished speaking, Zai Yan hurriedly asked, "What's more?" ”

I looked at him and said, "Besides, the emperor already has a judgment in his heart, so why bother to embarrass a little woman who is powerless?" ”

Zai Yan looked at me and couldn't help but smile, "Then tell me what I think in my heart?" ”

I pursed my lips and slowly shook my head, "The slave doesn't say anything." ”

He said, "Say." ”

I still shook my head, "No." ”

As if I had succeeded in arousing Zaiyan's interest, he glanced at me, dragged me over his lap, and whispered in my ear, "Say." ”

I stepped back and smiled, "The minion doesn't know." ”

He stared at me, "You must know. ”

I looked back at him, "The minion really doesn't know. ”

He put my upper body down at once, and I lay on his lap and couldn't move, only to hear him laugh and threaten me, "Do you want to say it?" ”

I said loudly, "If you don't say it, you won't say it!" ”

At this moment, Ningshou Palace is full of flowers, and there are many flowers in the thin glass bottle, a branch of red peony, a branch of pink rhododendron, and a branch of white magnolia, the pen is full of blooming, graceful and luxurious, charming and delicate, it seems to be competing with each other who is the gorgeous flower king here.

Just now, the imperial concubine of Dunyi Rongqing casually said a word about Yehenara?? Wanzhen's funeral cooking, "I don't know who is taking care of the funeral of King Fujin in this prince's mansion?" ”

Concubine Xun said lightly: "Love Xin Jueluo?? Zaifeng inherited the title of Prince Xian's previous prince, and the health of the Guarjia clan is not very good, and the current mansion is probably the side of the Fujin Deng Jia clan cooking! ”

Emperor Concubine Rongqing sighed, "It's a pity to talk about the Guerjia clan, such a beautiful woman like a flower." ”

Concubine Yu said with a smile: "Guerjia's family is not a family that can't afford to eat ginseng, and it can always be good if it is good to cook it raw, besides, Chang Fujin is still young, how can his illness be so natural." ”

Emperor Concubine Dunyi Rongqing said: "I saw Deng Jia's family in the side of Fujin before, and he can be regarded as a capable person, how come he hasn't put Xianwang Fujin into the coffin now?" ”

There was no answer for a while.

Cixi slowly put down the teacup in her hand and said leisurely: "Wanzhen is a sister of the mourning family, and she must find a good coffin for her to be buried." ”

Emperor Dunyi Rongqing couldn't help but ask again: "I don't know if Lafayette can get a good one?" ”

Cixi sighed softly and said, "I haven't got it yet." ”

Emperor Concubine Rongqing also sighed, "It's hard to find something like a coffin for a while!" ”

Longyu had been sitting on one side and listening, and finally spoke, "The concubine Niangniang also said that this Deng Jia's family is not a fool, it stands to reason that the coffin should have been prepared a long time ago, how can it wait until today, when everyone is gone, and the coffin has not yet been prepared?" ”

Cixi eased her expression and said lightly: "The mansion is naturally prepared, but the mourning family heard that the mansion is only an ordinary Nanmu coffin, and the mourning family feels very bad and tells not to rush to bury it first, and then bury it when the mourning family finds a good one." ”

I smiled slightly, "If Lafayette can't pick a good one, wouldn't Fu Jin have to stop in front of the mansion all the time?" ”

Cixi looked at me, "Concubine Zhen doesn't have to worry too much, the mourning family has already been done by Li Hongzhang, and it will be a matter of a few days." ”

I smiled, "Lafayette is really right." ”

Princess Rongshou said: "If Li Hongzhang doesn't succeed, I'll send someone to do it, and it's fast and good!" ”

Cixi looked at Princess Rongshou and smiled, "Okay," and then said, "You girl loves to show off her talents the most!" ”

Princess Rongshou said: "How can the slave show off his talents? With a slight sigh, he continued: "The slave helping Lafayette solve the problem has become a showman!" The slave is really wronged! ”

Concubine Yu said with a smile: "The eldest princess doesn't have to be wronged, Li Zhongtang has always been neat, where is the eldest princess going to make a move?" As she spoke, Concubine Yu turned her head to Cixi's side again, still smiling: "As the saying goes, entering the earth is safe, and Fujin should have gone to the earth to rest early after working all his life." ”

Concubine Xun said: "Niangniang's words are a little different, the slave wants to say a fair word for the eldest princess, didn't Li Zhongtang buy clothes and robes at the sixtieth birthday celebration last time?" ”

Hearing this, I smiled secretly in my heart.

Cixi said solemnly: "Needless to say, the mourning family will not let Li Hongzhang make any mistakes this time," and said, "Wanzhen is the mourning family's own sister after all, and the emperor's biological mother, in the end, she must be allowed to walk decently, and there is no room for sloppiness." ”

Cixi said this, Ziyu just sat in her seat peacefully, silently lowered her head and did not say a word, and ignored the words of others. In the shiny sandalwood chair, I saw her lonely and pitiful expression under her plain clothes, and the crystal tassels hanging from the hairpin ring shimmered faintly bright pearl in the black and green silk.

After a while, Cixi's eyes fell on me again, and said kindly: "The emperor has always liked you, and the mourning family is also at ease with you, but now I see that your body has not been very good after giving birth, and the emperor is indispensable to serve people, you still have to take care of your body, and it is not too late to serve the emperor when you are well in the future." ”

How I don't understand the deep meaning of Cixi's words, in the year I was grounded, Zai Xiang has not set foot in the harem a few times, I am now reset, Zai Xiang is with me almost every day, but this is after all the selfishness of the bed, Cixi is not good to interfere too much on the surface, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that Cixi is worried, so he will remind me from time to time. Cixi must have hoped that Longyu would soon give birth to a son-in-law, so that the Yehlara clan's position in the harem would be more stable. Everyone thought I had forgotten about it, but I still had my poor child in my mind. What's more, Cixi will always deliberately mention one or two, and my heart is even more unforgettable under the twitching.

Therefore, I will not let Cixi's mind succeed, in addition to ensuring that history is stable and there are no mistakes, but I also have to admit that I have some selfishness in my heart.

But on the surface, it is still necessary to leave room for Cixi.

I said with a soft expression: "Lafayette is serious, as long as it is for the good of the emperor, it doesn't matter what you want the slave to do," after a pause, I said, "Lafayette cares about the slave so much, and the slave is inexhaustible." ”
