Concubine Hui Guifei returned to the palace and still refused to change her thick clothes, but blindly frowned and said: "It is also said that it is spring, and when you walk into the palace, you will be soaked in the cold, and there is no warmth at all." ”

Mo Xin snorted her mouth, and several little eunuchs hurriedly brought in charcoal basins, and Mo Xin poured a cup of hot tea and sent it over, saying: "Little master taste this, it is a tea made by stir-frying barley and tangerine peel, smelling and pouring incense, it can also be appetizing and digestible." It was specially instructed by Imperial Physician Qi to be used by the little master. ”

Concubine Hui glanced at it and said angrily: "What kind of lowly thing is it made?" Now I'm using this to perfunctory the palace. ”

Mo Xin smiled and said: "Although barley and tangerine peel are easy things to obtain, as long as they are beneficial to the little master's body, what is there not to eat?" As long as the little master's body is stable, and he can have an elder brother early, then the four corners are complete. ”

Concubine Hui was a little distracted holding the tea, and the corners of her eyes were a little moist: "Now I don't lack anything, I have a family background, I have a position, the emperor's favor is more than in the palace before, and even my father is reused in the previous dynasty." ”

Mo Xin couldn't help but feel a little proud: "It's not! I heard that the emperor has been promoted to the rank of lord again. Even the people in the palace said that the emperor is in charge of the entire country, and our adults are in charge of half of it for the emperor. ”

Concubine Hui patted her with a gesture, but the smile on her face was even stronger: "Don't talk nonsense." She sighed and said, "The only thing missing now is that my stomach hasn't moved for all these years." She said with a sad face, "Speaking of grace, I am the one who has the most in the palace." But I can't always get pregnant, and I don't know why. ”

Mo Xin gently slapped Hui Guifei's shoulder and said, "Don't be too anxious, little master. Your blood stasis is from the womb of the mother, you have bothered all these years, and you can't take care of it well, and this disease looks like you have to take care of it well. ”

Concubine Hui said anxiously: "Recuperate, recuperate, I'm twenty-six." If you continue to recuperate, your age will not be forgiving, where can you still have children! ”

Mo Xin pursed her lips and thought about it, lowered her voice and said mysteriously: "Little master, if you are in a hurry to have a child, the slave maid heard that there is a method among the people, which is called recruiting brothers." ”

Hui Guifei was curious: "Brother Zhao, what is it?" ”

"It's a rich and noble family among the people, and if there is a wife who has not given birth, they will take a child and raise it. After raising it for a long time, and your belly is also stained with the vigor of a child, you can have your own child. It's best to be a boy, so that if you are pregnant, you can get a boy in one fell swoop. This is called recruiting brothers. ”

Concubine Hui said stupidly: "This is the harem, let alone here, even if it is a hidden mansion, how can you hold a child to raise?" It's really more and more inconsequential. ”

Mo Xin looked around at no one, and said in a low voice: "It's not out of bounds, this side is in this palace." The little lord thought about it, the eldest princess born to the queen and the second princess born to Concubine Zhe were both unlucky children, and they died not long after their lives. The second elder brother and the third princess were raised by the queen like pearls, and the third elder brother was the heart and liver of the pure concubine. But there is another child, Eniang is gone, lonely and miserable, just for the little master to recruit a brother! ”

Concubine Hui's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "You mean big brother?" That's a good fit. It's just that the kid was stunned, and he didn't look like a clever one. ”

Mo Xin smiled: "It's best not to be smart, let's just touch his vigor, take him over to raise him for a few days, and when the little master has his own child, he can't take care of him, just send him back to the elder brother's office." ”

Although Concubine Hui was happy, she still groaned: "I just don't know if the emperor is willing to ......."

"Whether you like it or not, there is a precedent in the family law for handing over the humble brother and princess of the biological mother to a high-ranking concubine to raise. Concubine Kangxi was born in Xinzheku, wasn't her eighth elder brother raised by Concubine Hui, who had a high position? Besides, the eldest brother's biological mother is gone, which is even more logical. She suddenly lowered her voice and said in disgust, "The little master still doesn't know? Today, the slave maid has beaten the imperial garden, and when she saw the heart of Concubine Xian and the eldest brother talking and laughing, the little master had to quickly beg the emperor, maybe Concubine Xian also had such an idea. If Concubine Xian takes the lead, will she be unhappy? ”

Hui Guifei was alert, sneered, and flicked the jade string on her wrist and said: "I said how she cared about my body today, it turned out that she didn't have a good heart." When I beg the emperor first, even if I don't recruit my brother or not, I can't disobey her heart! ”

In the evening there was a light rain, and in the evening it was clear, and the half-bent hazy hairy moon hung in the sky, so yellow as if it had been soaked in tears, and a layer of wet mist was enveloped. Ruyi endured sleepiness, took the silver hairpin to light the candle flame that was about to go out, and watched the faint moonlight leak in through the shadow window screen, and sprinkled on the ground vaguely, like a swaying shadow like a stall of clear water. A few peach trees in the courtyard spit out little by little pink buds, delicate and timid, unwilling to come out, but with the joy of the coming spring in the whole palace.

Ah Zhen yawned, but there was a smile on his face: "Little master, wait, maybe there are many excerpts today, and the emperor will come later." ”

Ruyi nodded and ordered: "Bring some cold water, I will apply a compress to my face to wake up." ”

As he was talking, he saw Wang Qin coming over with his body, and said with a smile: "I told Concubine Xian to wait for a long time." The emperor had just come out of the Palace of Heart Cultivation, and he was originally going to come to Yanxi Palace, but Concubine Hui was not happy, so the emperor went to Xianfu Palace. No, let the minions go back and forth. ”

Ah Zhen was a little unhappy at the moment: "The prince has worked hard, but he should have said that he should have said it a long time ago, why did he make a fuss so late?" ”

Wang Qin was like a smiling Mituo, not annoyed at all: "This is not the emperor staying in Xianfu Palace, the slave still has to go to the worship room to say a record, come and go, the slave only has these two legs, so it will be delayed." ”

Ruyi smiled lightly: "It's good that the emperor is resting, but there is Concubine Lao to serve." It was late at night, and my father-in-law went out for a slow walk. Three treasures, for the prince to hold the lamp. ”

Wang Qin waved his hand: "Don't dare to work, the slave will go by himself." ”
