Chapter Thirty-Eight: Gear Up
"Master," the attacker didn't know when he entered the hall, and said slightly unhappily: "Does the master really want to marry Canghai?" ”
I smiled and said, "yes, what's wrong?" ”
The attacker hurriedly said: "Canghai did such a thing, it is already a great kindness for the master not to send her to the cold palace, why do you have to ......" At the end, she pouted and said: "If the slave maid had known that this list was prepared for Canghai, the slave and maid would have written a few more vulgar people!" "A few days ago, I asked the attacker to prepare a list of guards in the palace who have not yet married a wife for me, I can't send Canghai over to be a concubine in front of my eyes, but if Canghai still can't hold her husband's heart after passing through the door, she can only blame herself.
Listening to the childish words, I couldn't help but laugh: "What? Afraid that she will marry well, and your eyes will be red? ”
"How could the slave think that?" "The slave just thinks that the master is too lenient to her. ”
"What if you are not generous? At this time, if the punishment is heavy, it is to make trouble for yourself, and if the punishment is light, and you are unwilling, it is better to let her out. I sighed lightly and said, "She was just instructed by others, and she couldn't help it, and besides, she has been with me for so long, how can I bear to see her end miserable?" ”
The attacker lowered his head and didn't speak, and after a long time, he took out a piece of paper and said, "Canghai said that she didn't want to marry, and she wanted to follow her master." ”
That piece of paper is the list I gave to Canghai.
I took the list and looked at the names on it casually, while thinking about whether to let Canghai stay, but when I saw a name, I denied the idea, Zhe Ketu, the current guard of the Taihe Palace, if I remember correctly, this Zhe Ketu will become Shunzhi's personal bodyguard in the future.
I shook my head slightly, "No, let her marry," and I pointed to Zheketu's name and said, "That's him." "The people around Shunzhi may ......
The attacker saw the name of Zheketu clearly, nodded and said: "I heard that this Zheketu originally had a wife, but his wife died of illness, and he had a deep love for his deceased wife, so he didn't renew the strings, didn't take concubines, and married in the sea, it was best to be snubbed by her husband forever!" ”
I smiled: "Time will dilute everything, whether Canghai will be left out in the cold can only depend on herself." ”
The attacker said: "I heard that this Zheketu has a meaty face and a full beard, and the slave maid has finally balanced her heart. ”
I couldn't help laughing when I heard this, looking at the attacker who still had a depressed look on his face, I said softly: "Don't underestimate him, this Zheketu, there will be great development in the future, if it weren't for the fact that I still want to keep you for a few more years, I really want to marry you to him." ”
As he was talking, a figure blew in like a small whirlwind at the door, it was Xiangyun, followed by a rushing autumn water, Xiangyun ran to me and knelt down quickly, his eyes were red and said: "Master, why are you so good to Canghai?" Have you forgotten how she betrayed you? There was a hint of accusation in his tone.
Qiushui also hurriedly knelt down and said: "Master, Xiangyun is still a child, and he doesn't mean to be disrespectful to his master. ”
I frowned, and Qiushui said anxiously: "Master, Xiangyun just heard that the master wanted to marry Canghai to the guards in the palace, and he was not worthy of the master, so he was in a hurry and disrespectful to the master. ”
The heart is kind, but the temper is too fast. I handed the list to Xiangyun and said lightly, "Do you also want to marry?" Pick one, and I'll marry you too. ”
"The slave maid is willing to stay in the palace for the rest of her life to serve the master," Xiangyun's little face was flushed, she looked up at me and said: "Canghai did such a thing, the master is kind-hearted, and it is just a matter of not pursuing it, and now she has to be released from the palace in advance and handle the marriage for her, the slave and maid don't understand in her heart." ”
I turned my head to look at the attacker: "Look, another one I don't understand." ”
The attacker said: "Don't blame Xiangyun, whoever says that the master is not Xiangyun will be angry for a long time, let alone this matter." ”
I nodded, and said to Xiangyun again: "How can you talk to the master like this, the master is doing this out of the past, if the master is really that ruthless person, with your words today, you can be punished." ”
Xiangyun didn't speak, I said softly: "Okay, get up, it's okay in Kunning Palace, if it's still so dry outside, who can protect you?" ”
Xiangyun got up with a face full of grievances, and Qiushui followed, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"Master Rongyu," Qiushui glanced at Xiang Yun before saying, "Although Xiang Yun was a little reckless today, he also remembered the words of Sister Raider's explanation, and he was wronged outside, and he also endured it. ”
As soon as Qiushui's words came out, Xiangyun grabbed Qiushui's sleeve, his face full of blame.
I couldn't help but ask, "What the hell is going on?" ”
Qiushui ignored Xiangyun's eyes, and knelt down and said: "A few days ago, the master's body was heavy, Xiangyun once came out of the imperial dining room, and accidentally bumped into Qing'er in Xianfu Palace, Qing'er insisted that the porridge in Xiangyun stained Concubine Tong's freshly washed clothes, and it was not enough to ridicule her with words, and finally slapped Xiangyun in the face, Xiangyun came back for fear that the attacking sister would be sad, and she was even more afraid of making the master's heart blocked, so she didn't speak, and the slave heard Xiangyun cat crying in the quilt in the middle of the night, so she asked what was going on. ”
Qing'er? I have in my mind the girl who looked shocked because she knocked over the incense burner, what? Does she think her master will be able to crush me, the queen, under her in the future? A palace maid dares to beat and scold the people around the queen at will, and I, the queen, have really failed.
The attacker listened to Qiushui's words with indignation on his face, Xiangyun was also in tears, I helped Qiushui up, looked at Xiangyun and said distressedly: "You have been wronged." ”
Xiangyun cried out loud with a "wow", and said with a sob: "The slave and the maid are not wronged, the master is wrong, those slaves look down on people, the slave and the maid are not worth it for the master, the master is such a good person, why do they treat the master so much?" Xiangyun swallowed for a long time before saying: "The slave's father is a good gambler, the mother is sick, the slave's monthly salary is not enough for the family, the master asked Brother Laixi to invite the best doctor to the slave's mother to see the disease, and let the slave's father quit gambling, the slave's home is like a home, originally Brother Laixi repeatedly explained not to let the family tell the slave and the maid these things, the slave's mother was grateful for the master's kindness, and secretly informed the slave and the maid of this matter, so that the slave and the maid did not have to worry about the family, just do their best to serve the master, and the mother set up an immortal tablet for the master at home, praying to God to bless the mother every day, who knew that God was blind, deaf, and could not hear the mother's prayers, so that the master was hurt again and again. ”
I was startled when I heard this, the immortal tablet, not everyone can afford it, no wonder I've always been dizzy recently, most of the palace maids who were elected to the palace were born in the banner family, and few of them had a good family background, and I did give Laixi the opportunity to take care of their families.
I said: "Your family's affairs are just a gesture, not to mention that when I came to persuade your father to quit gambling, your father did not suffer less, and you quickly asked your mother to withdraw the immortal tablet, I can't afford it." "I heard that in order to let Xiangyun's father stop gambling, he not only beat him half to death, but finally falsely passed on Yi's decree, warning him that if he gambled again in the future, he would be wiped out, probably Xiangyun's father was still afraid of death, but he really stopped gambling.
Xiangyun said with a persistent face: "The master can't stand it, who else can stand it?" The slave and maid are all sincere, as long as the master and the emperor can be as happy as before in the future, the slave and maid are willing to stay in the palace for the rest of their lives. ”
Xiangyun's words really moved me, I looked at her still slightly immature face, and said softly: "Don't worry, your master will not let you be wronged in vain, one day I will find it back for you!" I paused and said, "As for Canghai, don't complain too much about her, she is just a pawn in the hands of others, and without her, I wouldn't know that you are so good to me." ”
Looking at the red circles under the eyes of the three of them, I smiled again: "Okay, go wash your face, they have all become rabbits." ”
Xiangyun burst into tears and laughed, and then went out with Qiushui, and when the attacker saw them go out, he knelt on the ground again, I frowned and looked at her and said, "What's the matter?" ”
The attacker said: "Last month, the slave's younger brother entered the official school, and the slave's mother only said that there were nobles to help, and today after listening to Xiangyun's words, the slave and maid knew that the nobles of the slave maid's family were the masters." ”
Ouch, why is this the case? I stroked my forehead and said, "Your brother is young and doesn't go to school, do you want to be a slave for life?" "In order to let her brother enter the official school, I didn't have to make less money! But...... It can be regarded as cultivating flowers for the motherland, right? I frowned again and said, "I didn't do this to buy you people's hearts. "How do you make me look like an old witch who deceived Snow White into trusting me?
"Yes, the slave and maid know," said the attacker, "if the master wants to win the hearts of the people through these things, how can he call the joy and silence?" ”
"And what are you still kneeling for?"
"The slave and maid really can't think of how to thank the master, so they can only kowtow to the master to show the gratitude in the slave's heart." After the attacker finished speaking, he knocked his head three times in a row.
"Okay," my head started to hurt again, it must be because of that immortal tablet! "Get up, don't talk about it again, it makes me feel like I have bad intentions." People are obviously kind!
The attacker stood up, and I said again: "You go back and tell Canghai to let her prepare to get married, and then persuade Xiangyun to let her mother remove the tablet, I have always had a headache recently." ”
Attacker: "Does the master have a headache?" Do you want to pass on the imperial doctor? ”
I nodded and said, "Well, in the future, the Imperial Doctor doesn't need to call others, just call Imperial Doctor Li." ”
The attacker blinked a little puzzled, and I smiled: "I'm going to be sick again, you cover the doors and windows tightly, be careful of someone peeping, let Imperial Doctor Li prescribe more prescriptions on weekdays, and boil medicine uninterruptedly, it is best to let the entire Forbidden City smell the medicine of Kunning Palace." ”
