Chapter 171: Growth (II)

The Queen Mother seemed to have only discovered Mrs. Tai and Eleven Niang at this time, and said in surprise: "How can Mrs. Tai not make a noise when she comes." He also reprimanded the people around him, "Mrs. Tai is the mother-in-law of the emperor today, how can she be compared to those ordinary foreign women." In the future, if Mrs. Tai asks to see her, she can pass it directly, and there is no need to wait. ”

An attendant immediately stepped forward and said "yes".

Mrs. Tai hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to thank her, and Eleven Niang followed behind Mrs. Tai, naturally learning from her.

The Empress Dowager personally stepped forward and took Mrs. Tai's hand: "I also look forward to Mrs. Tai entering the palace and chatting with me." "There are fewer and fewer people who can speak in front of me now." People can't disagree with the old! "Then turn back to Kunning Palace," we said. ”

Mrs. Tai responded "yes" respectfully, and followed the Queen Mother to the East Warm Pavilion where the Queen was resting.

The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother sat down separately and rewarded the lady with a brocade, and the eleventh lady stood behind the lady. Mrs. Tai asked about the queen's condition: "...... Hearing the emperor's decree, the old body was worried all night. ”

"I'm fine." The queen mother comforted Mrs. Tai, "It's just that I occasionally feel cold and a little uncomfortable." After taking Liu Yizheng's medicine, I got a lot better. ”

The Queen Mother also smiled: "Don't worry about Mrs. Tai. I come to see the queen every day. I had some cough yesterday, but I didn't hear it this morning. ”

Mrs. Tai nodded and said politely: "The queen mother has the queen mother by her side, and I think my body will recover soon." ”

The Queen Mother looked at the Queen Mother and smiled: "I'm just here to be a companion for her." As he spoke, he changed the subject, "Is Danyang okay?" I heard that the first two days were uncomfortable? ”

Mrs. Tai said: "The child's family is the first child, and he is not sensible......"

The two parents were short, and Eleven Niang stood obediently behind Mrs. Tai, her eyes turned to the queen.

She was smiling, her expression as gentle as ever, but her wandering gaze revealed her absent-mindedness.

It can't go on like this.

People are not afraid of physical disabilities, but they are afraid of psychological disabilities.

She is so cowardly, it is clear that she has something in her heart. If it's an ordinary woman, complain a few words with your best friend, and your anger will disappear, and it will be fine. It's just that she is the mother of a country, and she can't be arrogant in her every move. Sometimes, a casual sentence will be infinitely magnified, not to mention that it involves the dignity of the emperor and the queen, and the royal secrets, so she can't open her mouth to anyone...... The emperor calls himself "lonely", and the queen is not lonely!

Thinking of this, Eleven Niang raised her head and looked at the queen mother boldly.

After a long time, the queen mother also felt something, and when she looked over with her feelings, she saw her brother-in-law, who was only fourteen years old, winking at her.

The queen was slightly stunned.

Eyes wide open again.

Eleven Niang smiled faintly at the queen mother.

Surprise flashed in the queen's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure.

As soon as the words of the Queen Mother and Mrs. Tai came to an end, the Queen asked about Mrs. Eleven's mother: "...... It was said that Mrs. Yongping Hou was not in good health. Later, I was not feeling well, so I didn't ask Liu Yizheng to question. Can it be diagnosed, what exactly is the problem? ”

This topic should not be answered by her.

Eleven Niang lowered her head.

Mrs. Tai said: "Her little days are always wrong, so let Doctor Liu help take the pulse." ”

"Oops!" The Queen Mother said, "This is a big deal. Can't be sloppy. ”

"Who's to say it's not." Mrs. Tai smiled bitterly, "I'm taking medicine now!" ”

The queen mother beckoned Eleven Niang over: "Come with me to the east room." "I left the servants around me in the main hall.

Eleven Niang obediently bent her knees and saluted "yes", and went to the east room with the queen mother.

Mrs. Tai was very surprised.

The Queen Mother looked at it but smiled happily.

It seems that the queen temporarily invited her younger brother and daughter-in-law to ask about it...... The heirs of the Xu family have always been thin. Xu Lingyi has only one son-in-law so far, and she still has a deficiency disease. It's no wonder that the queen was very nervous when she heard it.

The thought flashed, and the Queen Mother smiled and asked people to bring almond and peanut dew: "It's newly made in the kitchen, and it tastes good." ”

Mrs. Tai smiled and thanked her, but she was thinking about the queen and eleven niang in the east room.

Sitting on the big kang near the window, the queen looked at the eleven mother standing in front of her, and she didn't know what to say.

Of course, Eleven Niang would not stare at herself so boldly for no reason, and smile at herself. But with a little girl who is not familiar with her, no more than two years older than her son, talking about family prosperity and the secret of husband and wife, she is not so dull!

She couldn't help but show a little hesitation on her face.

Eleven Niang saw it in her eyes and took the initiative to attack. Respectfully lowered her head slightly, and said in a low voice: "The concubine is slightly sick, not only the Hou Ye personally asked, but also bothered the mother to ask, and the concubine was really uneasy. As he spoke, he bent his knees and blessed, and said, "When the concubine just got married, she was very scared when she saw the majesty of the marquis. Her face was slightly pale, and she talked about Xu Lingyi's troubles for the child's troubles," ...... Only then did I know that Hou Ye was actually a cold-faced and hot-hearted person. Then talking about the third lady taking advantage of the soup kitchen to exchange good rice for moldy rice, "Master Hou is magnanimous. Not only did he not blame the third master and the third sister-in-law for acting inappropriately, but he reflected on himself and went to Fuchengmen to deal with it in person, and made an appointment with the third master overnight to talk to him...... "I told the queen mother about the thoughts of the third master and the third lady, Xu Lingyi's preparation to resign and let the third master come out and face everyone."

The queen mother's expression was faint at first, the more Eleven Niang said, the more serious her expression became, and when she said that Xu Lingyi was going to resign, she was already stunned: "Why has Master Hou never said this to me?" ”

"Hou Ye behaves in a proper manner, and it involves brotherhood and brotherly righteousness, if I don't live in the same room with Hou Ye, I can't see his deep meaning."

The queen mother was stunned when she heard this, looked at Eleven Niang, and looked kind: "Madame is very concerned about the affairs of the Hou Ye." ”

Eleven Niang couldn't help but sweat when she heard this.

But it can't be denied.

"The marquis is high-spirited and bright, and the concubines are very admired." In front of the queen who is her sister, Eleven Niang had no choice but to wear a high hat for Xu Lingyi.

The queen mother saw that although she looked calm and calm, her cheeks were slightly red, and a trace of apprehension flashed in her eyes, but she felt that she was trying her best to hide her concern for Xu Lingyi, and there was a smile in her eyes.

"The concubine is stupid and dull. I can't take care of the affairs of the court society. can only take care of Hou Ye from daily things, and not let Hou Ye worry about trivial matters at home. Eleven Niang said, "When it's cold, make a hot hand stove for Hou Ye, and when Hou Ye is in a bad mood, tell a few jokes to Hou Ye, and help take care of Brother Yu, Sister Zhen and Brother Zhen......"

The queen mother's face froze when she heard this, and she muttered: "Don't let the Hou Ye worry about trivial matters at home......"

Eleven Niang nodded, and told the queen in detail about Xu Lingyi's memories of being with the queen mother when she was a child late at night after the death of the fifth prince: "...... Even if you have a heart, you can only talk about it in front of your concubines. The next day, I had to go out like a nobody. The concubine saw it in her eyes, and she was really sad for the marquis. As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, "I'm more worried about the queen mother and the emperor - in addition to being her biological mother, she is also the mother of a country, and the emperor is not only her biological father, but also the king of a country, not only those historians are watching, but also the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are watching, compared to the situation of the marquis, I don't know how much more difficult it is." ”

As she spoke, a flash of water appeared in the corner of the queen's eyes.

It's good to be able to shed tears......

Eleven Niang breathed a sigh of relief for a while, and then knelt down: "It's all concubine nonsense, which makes Niangniang sad!" He added, "If you let Master Hou know, I don't know how sad it will be." ”

The queen looked at her and didn't make a sound.

Shi Niang didn't have time to be relatively speechless to her.

kneeling and said, "When I came, Master Hou asked me to bring you a message." Say, you can do whatever you want, and you don't have to have any other scruples. He is not only a courtier, but also your brother, even if it is a sword mountain and a sea of fire, as long as you say a word, he will do what you want. ”

The queen's eyes gradually became hot, staring at her and saying, "What if I let him help me kill someone?" ”

Eleven Niang looked back at the queen mother steadily, her expression was calm and peaceful, as if the queen mother was asking "how is the weather today", and replied calmly: "Hou Ye said that he has both warriors and strategists under his command. No matter what the queen mother commands, just let the concubine bring a message. Although their family has made a lot of money through the Internal Affairs Office and is rich in the world, our Xu family is not vegetarian. It's not as good as making money, cutting off the way those people come from, but it's not difficult to do it in one shot. ”

The queen didn't make a sound for a long time, but there were tears in the corners of her eyes.

"Fourth brother, it's still that bad temper." As he spoke, tears fell like rain, "You tell him, let him not mess around." "Take a step back and open the sky." They are the crockpots, but my brother is the fine porcelain, and they can't afford to pay for it. The emperor is just taking care of the grace of the year now...... But the tiger poison does not eat the seeds. The emperor has his own decision. Don't spoil the emperor's overall situation. Let the enemy laugh, and the relatives hurt. ”

Eleven Niang looked at the queen in astonishment.

She thought she was going to waste a lot of tongues. I didn't expect ......

The queen should know very well in her heart!

All she wants is a step and an opportunity to turn her mind around!

The queen mother looked at the surprise in the eyes of Shi Niang, and knew that her transformation surprised Shi Niang.

She couldn't help but feel a faint pain in her heart.

But there is some relief.

Eleven Niang is telling the truth. Instead of being commanded to test her......

The fourth brother has not changed.

It's the same as before.

A smile broke across her face.

On the face full of tears, it looks so sad.

Eleven Niang looked at it, and tears couldn't help but fill her eyes.

The two of them cried silently, and their eyes were red when they came out. The Queen Mother's eyes were full of suspicion, and she smiled: "What is this?" Why did our Lady Yongping Marquis make the queen sad? ”

The queen listened to the tears and fell again: "Somehow, the heir of the Hou Ye is so difficult!" ”

The Queen Mother regained her original pleasure when she heard this: "Isn't Mrs. Hou still young?" It will be fine in a few years, if the queen mother is really worried. In my opinion, in the draft next spring, it is better to invite the emperor and choose a few outstanding ones to give to the Hou Ye. I want to come to the next year, Mrs. Kaichun will have a grandson to hug! ”

Eleven Niang listened to the surprise in her heart, lowered her head and kept silent-there is the queen mother here, and the lady below, and it is not her turn to speak.

The queen mother listened to it and sighed long: "In the end, it's not a concubine, no matter how much it is, it's useless!" ”

The Queen Mother was stunned.

The queen mother had already said to Mrs. Tai: "It's not too early, when the emperor will come to dinner, I won't keep you." ”

Mrs. Tai got up quietly and bowed to Eleven Niang and retreated.
