Chapter 158: Foot Relief

After four times, Huizhu couldn't help but be in good spirits, fortunately the position she knelt in was okay, at the very edge of the stone steps, it was not easy for others to notice, and there was a stone fence on the left hand side, so that Baolian was sandwiched between her and the stone fence to lean, and their mother and daughter could not only snuggle up to each other to warm up, but also hang their heads and squint their eyes.

The gong sounded again, Huizhu woke up, squinted her eyes slightly, and saw that there were eunuchs leading people into the hall, she couldn't help but yawn deeply, it seemed that she still had to kneel. It is often said that beggars still have a few relatives, not to mention the royal family of the lord of the world, but the words are to take advantage of the queen mother's funeral to pay homage, but there are a few people who really have the heart of admiration, most of them are focused on the side of Emperor Kangxi.

Thinking of this, Huizhu was worried about how Hongli would come to Emperor Kangxi's side, according to Emperor Kangxi's current posture, eighty percent would personally guard the lantern, Hongli knelt beside Emperor Kangxi, wouldn't he have to accompany him, this big winter body is unbearable.

Outside Huizhu Hall, he was worried about Hongli's body, and Li Dequan in the sacrificial hall was also persuading Emperor Kangxi to rest, but he didn't respond for most of the day, so he had to turn to Yinzhen and the third elder brother Yinzhi for help.

Yinzhi bowed and said: "Huang Ama, you have already read the sacrificial text, and now it is the seventh day of the lunar month, it is the cold season at the end of the year, or go back to the Qianqing Palace to rest earlier, this is guarded by the sons and others." ”

Emperor Kangxi didn't seem to hear it, still holding the sacrificial text in his hand, and his lips moved slightly.

Yinzhi shook his head helplessly, and then Yinzhen continued to persuade: "Huang Ama, in order to save illness, you have lived in the curtain set up in the west of Ningshou Palace for a month, and even your iron body can't hold it. You are concerned about the safety of the world, the people of Li, and your body is the important matter of the society. ”

Emperor Kangxi's body stiffened, turned his head and looked deeply at the expressionless Yinzhen, and then called Li Dequan and ordered: "Go back to Cangzhenmen." The three of Yinzhen were taken aback, and Yinzhi took the lead in exhaling: "Huang Ama, you have been living in the Cangzhen Gate in the west of Ningshou Palace for a month, which is not as cold as the palace. Emperor Kangxi still didn't speak, but just raised his hand and motioned for Li Dequan to help him up.

Emperor Kangxi was sixty-four years old, kneeling for a long time at this time, and suddenly stood up, but he was dizzy, his legs trembled, and his body shook for a while. Everyone in the hall was panicked, and Yinzhen grabbed Emperor Kangxi, who was standing unsteadily, and blurted out: "Huang Ama! ”

Emperor Kangxi took advantage of Yinzhen's support to stabilize his body first, and then separated Yinzhen's support and lamented: "At this time, there are only people who are filial to me, and there are no people who love me." After that, he wanted Li Dequan to help him leave, but he heard Hongli call loudly: "Huang Ma Fa!" ”

Emperor Kangxi looked down at Hongli with a sincere expression, a trace of warmth and love flashed between his eyebrows, and he reached out and touched Hongli's forehead with a slight trembling, and whispered: "Maybe there are still children with filial piety." ”

Hongli grabbed Emperor Kangxi's sleeve, and called out "Huang Ma Fa" in confusion, Yinzhen glared at Hongli fiercely, and shouted: "Let go." Emperor Kangxi's eyes motioned for Yinzhen to step back and asked, "Would you like to accompany me?" The words fell, everyone in the hall held their breath, Hongli did not feel the abnormality around him, thinking that Emperor Kangxi was the most powerful person he had ever seen, and it should be right to be close to Emperor Kangxi, so Hongli responded with more than half a year of experience in the study, with instinctive awareness.

Emperor Kangxi's voice was a little lonely: "Then let's go." After speaking, he took Hongli's little hand and left the hall with staggering steps.

Everyone looked at it, but no one made a sound, but knelt down to send the old and the young one away. When the figure disappeared around the corner of the door, everyone got up, Yinzhen put his hands behind his back, looked at the place where Emperor Kangxi left, and in an instant, he returned to the lower left of the third elder brother Yinzhi with a cold face and continued to kneel.

Xu is because of the departure of Emperor Kangxi, everyone has no previous hands and feet, and the back should be done down, the efficiency is very fast, when the sky is bright, a ritual is finally over, everyone left the palace and left, Huizhu also had to support the extremely tired body, holding Baolian, and going back to the palace in a carriage with the Wulanala clan.

Back to Prince Yong's mansion, the sky has been bright, the night snow is early, the outer courtyard is sweeping the snow on the ground with a broom, a small guy wearing a cotton jacket holding a broom, his hands keep poking and rubbing, gulping for the palm of the hot air, suddenly heard the sound of "clicking" horses' hooves, turned his head to look, he saw four carriages coming in from the side door, hurriedly put down the broom, and shouted inside: "The masters of Fujin are back." ”

Before long, five or six mothers-in-law and girls came on foot, nodded and opened the curtain of the carriage, put a small stool in front of the carriage, and stood aside and waited. Ulanala got out of the carriage, raised his hand and rubbed his forehead, his face couldn't stop the exhaustion, but when he saw Huizhu's mother and daughter, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and then he took a few steps forward, and said with concern: "I didn't close my eyes all night, and knelt in the open air all night, or let Mama give you a hand, don't hug Baolian by yourself." Huizhu was really tired, so she handed Baolian to Mama He to hold as she said.

As he was talking, Gao De hurriedly spoke, and the four of them didn't say much, so they walked to the inner courtyard with the support of their mother-in-law. When they arrived in the main courtyard, the Song, Geng and other Gege concubines were still kneeling on the ground in plain clothes, and when they saw the Wulanala clan coming over, they hurriedly asked the girl to help them up, and asked questions with mental concern.

The Ulanala clan shook his head and appeased a few words, and after instructing the rest of the house to eat vegetarians and other mourning matters, he asked the concubines and girls to retreat first. Then he carefully talked about the situation in the palace, expressed his feelings about the death of the queen mother, and announced the cancellation of tomorrow's Laba banquet, and the New Year half a month later.

For a while, Yinzhen father and son returned to the house and came to the hospital, and the Wulanala clan led everyone to squat and salute Yinzhen, Yinzhen quit the salute, walked up to sit down, and Yahuan immediately poured hot tea. Yinzhen picked up the teacup, looked for the tea powder a few times, took a sip, and suddenly a warm breath came to him, and his whole body was smooth, and he couldn't help but sigh comfortably.

The Li family and the Geng family also called Hongshi and Hongday to their side, and for a while, they asked for warmth, and let the maid ring serve hot tea and snacks, so that the two brothers could use it first to cushion their stomachs.

Huizhu looked at Hongshi and Hongday who had been back for a long time, but they still didn't see Hongli, remembering that Hongli was kneeling beside Emperor Kangxi, she faintly understood a little in her heart, but she still hesitated: "Master, I don't know where Hongli went, why haven't you seen him come back?" ”

At this time, everyone present realized that Hongli did not come back with him, and looked for Hongli in the house with doubts, but heard Hongli muttering crisply: "The fourth brother was taken away by Huang Marfa and lives in the palace." Hearing this, everyone's spirits were lifted, and the tiredness disappeared in an instant, and the burning eyes glanced at Huizhu, and then looked at Yinzhen, as if waiting for Yinzhen's answer.

Yin Zhen slowly opened his eyes, raised his eyes and looked at Huizhu and said, "Well, Hongli was taken by Huang Ama, and it is estimated that he will live in the palace for a few days." After Yinzhen's affirmative words, Huizhu's eyes were round, and she silently asked why.

Yin Zhen retracted his gaze, ignored Huizhu's doubts, and continued in the face of everyone: "Kneeling for a night, let's go back and rest, if anything happens, there will be a servant to pass the word." Everyone still wanted to ask something in their hearts, but when Yinzhen said this, they had to swallow the words in their mouths and retreat respectfully in response.

Huizhu dragged on to the end, and refused to get up to leave, Wulanala knew what Huizhu meant, so he took a peek at Yinzhen's expression, his mind turned, nodded appeasefully to Huizhu, and said generously: "Master, you haven't been to Sister Niu Hulu's to see Baolian for more than three months, last night, the wind and snow were heavy, and the little child knelt for a whole night." ”

Yin Zhen followed the steps given by the Wulanala clan and said, "In the afternoon, let the imperial doctor come over and take a look." Well, I just have some free time now, so I'll go see Pauline. After speaking, he said hard work to the Wulanala clan, and told the Wulanala clan to rest well, and if he was tired of the death of the queen mother, he asked Huizhu to leave with him.

Back in her own yard, Huizhu first asked Mama He to take Baolian to the east chamber to sleep, and then washed her face with Yinzhen, changed into plain clothes, and hastily ate some hot and food, then retreated left and right, and hurriedly asked Hongli why he knelt beside Emperor Kangxi, and why he was taken away by Emperor Kangxi later.

Yin Zhen glanced at Huizhu without being salty, and said: "According to what you said before, you are the mother of two children, and you should be more stable, why are you still asking such impatient questions now." At the end, seeing that Huizhu was indeed anxious, he talked about Hongli being brought to Emperor Kangxi's side: "You know, my third brother and I knelt on the left hand side of Huang Ama, Hongli followed me and knelt together, close to Huang Ama, he cared about you and Baolian kneeling outside, just let Huang Ama listen, Huang Ama praised Hongli's filial piety, and recruited Hongli to kneel beside him." After hearing this, Huizhu looked directly at Yinzhen, and some didn't believe that it was so simple, so Emperor Kangxi asked Hongli to kneel beside him.

Yin Zhen frowned and said: "Don't believe it, that's the way it is, Huang Ama has always remembered Hongli, since he went to the study, his homework has been much better than his age, and his teaching master has also been praised in front of Huang Ama, if so, it is common for Hongli to be closer than other grandchildren." ”

Speaking of this, Yin Zhen suddenly stopped, as if immersed in his own thoughts, he woke up after half a ring, and muttered to himself: "It's just that Huang Ama took Hongli away is surprising, is it ......" Before he could say anything, he returned to normal, and said to Huizhu: "Xu is Huang Ama really likes Hongli, it is not necessarily, the death of the Queen Mother has a deep impact on Huang Amma, and it is good to have Hongli by his side to relieve boredom." You don't have to worry. After speaking, he left Huizhu and went into the bedroom to make up for sleep by himself.
