Chapter 33: The Draft (I)
In the fifth year of Yongzheng, the sixth day of the seventh month, the sky is clear and clear, and it is not a simple day.
Although the draft for the elder brother is not as important and complicated as the draft for the emperor, it is also a major event in the palace, and now that Concubine Xi and the queen are in the same boat, many people say that this is a good show, so they are waiting to see how the two of them appear.
"Hongli, have you remembered everything that Eniang told you?" Concubine Xi was a little uneasy, and reminded Hongli again.
Although Hongli didn't speak, he nodded in agreement, he has thought clearly these days, in fact, he doesn't have much interest in those women, so whoever he marries is the same, since that's the case, he obeys Eniang's arrangement.
Early in the morning, Hongli ran to Yongshou Palace, and sure enough, Hongli was standing in the crowd with a happy face.
Seeing this, Hongli was angry, he rushed up, grabbed Hongli's collar, and he questioned him, "Mu Yao is still in the Shen Criminal Division, can you feel at ease?" ”
Hongli didn't explain, he said bluntly, "Fifth brother, I choose a wife today, don't make trouble!" ”
"Bastard!" Hongtian waved his hand and gave him a solid punch, he glared at him angrily and asked him, "Where are you doing this?" ”
Hearing Hongyang mention Mu Yao, Hongli also lost his temper, and he said sharply, "This is a matter for the two of us, you don't need to care!" ”
"Mu Yao's affairs, I'm in charge!" Hongtian is even more unrelenting.
"Haven't you always looked at Mu Yao unpleasantly?" Hongli asked rhetorically.
Hongtian was speechless for a while, yes, since he came back from the Shen Penal Division that day, he had obviously sworn to forget her, she didn't know what to do, she was ungrateful, he let himself not think about her, but why was he still worried about her all the time and sad for her?
The dispute between the two was very noisy, and they actually attracted all the concubines in the front hall, only to see that Concubine Xi was full of displeasure, her eyes were slightly narrowed, which was daunting.
Concubine Yu hurriedly knelt on the ground and pleaded, "Concubine Xi spares her life, the fifth elder brother is young and ignorant, Concubine Xi should not be like him." ”
Concubine Xi's face was cold, and she said, "Concubine Yu, the fifth elder brother is young, so you are not the one who is the mother." ”
"It's the concubine's fault, please punish Concubine Xi!" Concubine Yu was so frightened that she knocked her forehead vigorously, she turned her head to look at the envoy Hongday, and said, "Fifth Elder Brother, don't hurry up and admit your mistake to Concubine Xi and Fourth Elder Brother!" ”
Hongtian is also a high-minded and arrogant person, naturally unwilling to give in, seeing that Hongtian has no intention of repentance, Concubine Xi couldn't help but be angry, she gritted her teeth and shouted, "Come on, arrest the fifth elder brother!" ”
"Stop!" Seeing this, Hongli immediately stepped forward to stop him, and said, "Eniang, today is the great day of the son's minister, and it is really not appropriate to make a big move." ”
Before Concubine Xi could speak, she heard the queen's voice coming from inside and outside, and only heard her say, "It's still the fourth elder brother who said it." ”
In the blink of an eye, the queen had walked in front of everyone, and everyone immediately knelt on the ground to salute the queen, and the queen smiled faintly and said, "It's all a family, why fight for your life?" ”
"The queen's lesson is that the concubine is in a hurry." The corners of Concubine Xi's mouth raised, and she also pulled out a smile.
The queen turned her head again to look at Concubine Yu, who was still kneeling on the ground, she stepped forward to help her up, and said kindly, "Concubine Yu, since the fifth elder brother is young and ignorant, why don't you hurry up and take him back to Heqing Palace and teach him well?" ”
When Concubine Yu heard this, she immediately kowtowed and thanked her, then pulled Hongyang and quickly left this place of right and wrong.
The queen and Yu Concubine do not have any contact, and now they come to the rescue, I am afraid that it is to win her over, the queen has no children under her knees, and the third elder brother who has succeeded has now been convicted and is to be beheaded, she must find another backer for herself, and now there are only two elder brothers in the palace, so her purpose is naturally clear to everyone at a glance.
