Concubine Qi failed to fulfill Concubine Mao's wish.

On this day, Yao Jiaxin went to Cining Palace to greet the Queen Mother, and happened to meet Concubine Qi outside Cining Gate.

Concubine Qi was wearing a concubine's auspicious dress, but the auspicious clothes that fit incomparably in the past looked a lot fatter, and then looked at Concubine Qi's face, her face was full of weight, so thin that the stork bones were a little protruding, and the wrinkles on her face were much deeper, and she looked ten years old.

"The concubine greets the queen." Concubine Qi hurriedly saluted.

Yao Jiaxin held the Pingjin hand stove in her hand, got off the phoenix, and said lightly, "No courtesy", "Concubine Qi is well?" ”

Concubine Qi hurriedly covered her lips and coughed twice, "It's much better than a few days ago, but I still cough twice occasionally." The concubine heard that the Queen Mother had also been coughing recently, so she came over to say goodbye. ”

Yao Jiaxin let out a faint "oh", and walked directly into Cining Palace.

Concubine Qi saw that the queen did not take the opportunity to find her trouble, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed.

The main hall of Cining Palace is filled with the smell of strong Canaan incense, and there is also a faint smell of medicine. Yao Jiaxin caught a glimpse of an empty medicine bowl on the rosewood kang table at the head of the bed, which showed that the Queen Mother had just taken the medicine.

The Queen Mother is sitting crookedly on the Luohan couch near the window at the moment, with four or five satin soft pillows reclining behind her, a white mink mattress under her, and a thick antique satin quilt below the waist and abdomen. - Obviously, the charcoal fire in the hall is so warm, but it should be covered with such a thick quilt, which shows that the queen mother's condition has worsened.

Yao Jiaxin didn't have time to look more, so she squatted down, "Please say hello to the emperor." ”

"The concubine greets the Queen Mother!" Concubine Qi hurriedly knelt down and bowed, and said respectfully: "The concubine has been negligent in asking for peace for a long time, and she also asks the Queen Mother to forgive her sins." ”

The Queen Mother raised her hand weakly, "It's all exempt." ”

The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Qi, who was sick and damaged, and sighed, "Concubine Qi is a lot haggard." ”

Concubine Qi burst into tears in an instant, "It's all because the concubines and concubines have no way to teach their children, so that Hongshi went the wrong way!" ”

Yao Jiaxin glanced at Concubine Qi, her old and haggard face was already full of tears, and she cried when she said she cried, but she didn't know if it was true or if she was good at crying.

The Queen Mother said lightly: "Hongyun and Huaike are still very well-behaved and filial. ”

Concubine Qi secretly looked at the Queen Mother's indifferent and ruthless face, and was desperate in her heart, so she had to nod with tears, "The concubine is sick, thanks to Huai Ke who often enters the palace to serve. ”

Last winter, Hongshi's Fujin Dong E's family was in the pen, and he really gave birth to a son as he wished, but it is a pity that Hongshi succeeded him, and this child is not the eldest grandson of the emperor. Wash the third and full moon, and His Majesty the Fourth Master has not given the slightest reward - this is normal, His Majesty the Fourth Master doesn't even want Hongshi's son, let alone his grandson.

Concubine Qi couldn't help but say: "It's Suo Xue Luo's family, since the New Year's Festival, he hasn't entered the palace to ask for peace." Concubine Qi's tone was full of resentment.

Yao Jiaxin raised her eyebrows, Concubine Qi has always been quite dissatisfied with Hongyun Fujin, but she felt that Suo Yuluo was well-behaved and thoughtful, and she would not easily fall into the hands of others, so she said: "Could it be that you were sick a year ago?" ”

Concubine Qi choked, "Thank you for the care of the queen, Suo Xue Luo's body and bones are good, he has never been sick by Hongyun all these years, how can he be sick by his concubines now?" ”

Yes, Suo Xue Luo's body and bones are very good, and he has taken care of Hongyun, who is prone to major and minor illnesses over the years, and he has never been infected.

Concubine Qi began to complain again: "The concubine is blessed, Hongshi was rejected by the emperor, Hongyun is not in good health, I was expecting to have a virtuous and filial daughter-in-law, but I didn't think about it, I had to work hard to marry Huai Ke and leave my children to serve the concubine." ”

As she spoke, Concubine Qi's eyes turned red again.

Yao Jiaxin: Is it to tell your mother-in-law about her daughter-in-law?

Yao Jiaxin couldn't help but say, "Okay, Concubine Qi!" The queen mother's phoenix body is not harmonious, so you can nag a few words! ”

Concubine Qi choked, and her resentment towards her daughter-in-law had to be held back.

At this time, a girl in a powder blue flag suit walked in quickly with a plate of candied fruit in her hand, "Queen Mother, this is candied begonia, it's sweet." ”

The girl's voice was even sweeter.

Yao Jiaxin took a closer look, this girl looked like she was only sixteen or seventeen years old, even if she was wearing a thick winter coat, she still had a slender waist, a little face with sweet dimples, curved eyebrows and eyes, and cherry lips, she was really a sweet and moving woman.

The Queen Mother smiled, "The mourning family has already drunk the medicine!" Although she said so, the Queen Mother still took two pieces of candied fruit and put them in her mouth, and said to the girl with a smile: "Ruhui, this is the Queen Yao Jia's and Concubine Qi's Li." ”

Ruhui?

It seems that this sweet little Gege is the Queen Mother's little niece Wu Ya Ruhui, the Queen Mother is not deceiving, and she does look very standard.

Wu Ya Ruhui smiled still, and Ying Yingran knelt down, "The little girl Ruhui asks the queen for peace, and wishes the mother a thousand years old." ”

Yao Jiaxin smiled, "It's really peugeot and well-behaved." With that, she raised her hand and said, "Get up." ”

"Yes!" Wu Ya Ruhui responded obediently, stood up, and bent her knees slightly towards Concubine Qi, "Concubine Qi Niangniang." ”

Concubine Qi secretly looked at the outstanding appearance of Wu Ya's Gege, and whispered: "The concubine is clumsy, is this little Gege the niece and granddaughter of the Queen Mother?" ”

The Queen Mother swallowed the candied fruit in her mouth and said, "Ruhui is the brother of the mourning family and the daughter of Cheng'en Gongboqi." ”

Yao Jiaxin said secretly, she is actually the daughter of Chengen Gong of the Wu Ya clan, and marrying his younger brother Wen Zhuo is really the right person.

Concubine Qi chuckled in her heart, that is, the queen mother's niece?

Concubine Qi showed a look of surprise, "That is, the emperor's cousin?" This cousin was born really cute! ”

Yao Jiaxin was stunned, how did she pull it on His Majesty the Fourth Master? Forehead...... Concubine Qi must be thinking crookedly.

That's right, before the marriage is decided, of course the Queen Mother will not shout around, so Concubine Qi will make up for it indiscriminately.

Wu Yaruhui quickly lowered her head and said in a low voice: "Concubine Qi is ridiculous." ”

Yao Jiaxin said secretly: As far as she knows, Duchess Chengen is very old, this sixteen or seventeen-year-old Ruhui is obviously not a descendant, but Wen Zhuo wants to continue the string, and it is not good to be too picky, the concubine is not tight, the temperament and temperament are the most important.

"Ahem!" The Queen Mother suddenly coughed violently twice, Wu Yaruhui hurriedly rushed a glass of loquat sugar water, served the Queen Mother and drank it, and gently stroked the Queen Mother's chest with her little hand, and the Queen Mother was slightly better.

Yao Jiaxin saw it in her eyes, this Wu Ya Ruhui was very careful and clever.

The Queen Mother sighed, "Old! ”

Yao Jiaxin hurriedly relieved: "The Queen Mother only occasionally felt a cold, and she will recover soon." ”

Wu Ya Ruhui suddenly knelt down: "The Queen Mother coughed so badly, Ruhui really didn't feel at ease, Ruhui wanted to stay and serve the Queen Mother." As she spoke, Wu Yaruhui kowtowed heavily.

The queen mother was stunned, she just called Ruhui here today to show the queen, this girl...... Is it true filial piety, or is it ...... The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes.

Yao Jiaxin also raised her eyebrows, staying in the palace to serve the Queen Mother? You know, not everyone can stay in the inner palace, they have always been either concubines or show girls. Wu Ya Ruhui's request was obviously unruly, but ...... Yao Jiaxin didn't interject either, and let the Queen Mother make her own decisions.

At this time, Concubine Qi jumped out, "This Wuya Gege is really filial!" The Queen Mother is really blessed! ”
