Concubine Yi's words are not unreasonable, Concubine Hui herself has never really felt at ease, this year she looked at it coldly, Jue Chan no longer has any concern for Nalan Rongruo for some reason, it seems that she has broken off her love, and no matter how Concubine Wen tosses, she herself lives a good and decent life, and that posture seems to be fighting for breath in this Forbidden City, so she has to guard against it.

After all, in the imperial city, although the beautiful face is not omnipotent, but there is no posture and it is absolutely impossible, and the Juezen clan is at the age of blooming flowers, and it is in the best time.

"The emperor is going this time, I hold my stomach, I can't serve and accompany after returning to Luan, and I can't get close for another year, and when I give birth to the child, the emperor probably won't remember me." Concubine Yi cherishes and expects this child as much as Brother Jiu, and always feels that this child is hindering her future, if she can accompany the emperor to go through, she firmly believes that she can climb Mount Tai.

Concubine Hui said: "Speaking of which, it should be drafted again in the spring of next year, but so far the emperor and the empress dowager have not made a clear indication, and the Ministry of Household Affairs and Rites of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has not moved. ”

Concubine Yi's eyes widened and asked Concubine Hui: "Why do you have to choose again, didn't Concubine Tong just enter the palace?" ”

Concubine Hui smiled: "It's all about Kangxi's twenty-one years, next year's twenty-four years, count the days, sister, you entered the palace in the fourteenth year, and it's been ten years in the blink of an eye,"

"Ten years?" Concubine Yi was stunned, she had been in the palace for ten years, and subconsciously ran to the mirror to look at her face, touched the skin on her face, and asked Concubine Hui sadly, "Sister, am I old?" ”

"It's not small compared to newcomers, but when you're still young, don't scare yourself, take good care of yourself, and the future will be long." Concubine Hui said this, but involuntarily touched the corners of her eyes, this morning I looked in the mirror, and saw another fine line, no matter how well maintained in the deep palace, it could not be compared to the passing of the Spring and Autumn Period, no matter how to look at the young and beautiful, really stand beside the people in their teens and twenties, and the years will be written on the face.

On the Yizhou side, the emperor was busy opening a porridge factory and giving relief to poor households for several days, but in fact, the imperial court had already made this move, which was originally intended to help the poor, but after a long time, most of the officials in charge regarded it as a false document, so that the relief was like a fictitious thing, and the people did not benefit from it, so he issued a strict order: "Order the ministry to strictly punish the officials who patrol the city and the officials, and they must be ordered to be distributed to the relatives, so as not to have fake labor, invade the fishing and pretend, and benefit the small people." He also said that if he violated the law, he would be punished.

Busy for two days, the next stop is to Taoyuan County to inspect the project on the north bank of the Yellow River, it is the eve of the day, Xuan Ye finished reading the Zhou Zhang sent to him, busy with various affairs, Liang Gonggong came to ask the emperor where to rest at night, Xuan Ye asked Concubine De how to recuperate, and couldn't wait for Liang Gonggong to ask, so he personally went to Lan Qi's residence.

Before climbing Mount Tai, the reason why the holy car returned to the foot of the mountain on the evening of the 11th was because it was easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, the emperor and the accompanying guards and generals were acceptable, but Concubine De's feet were so soft that she couldn't go down the steps, and she walked hard and slow step by step, and was carried down when the terrain was a little slow, and if it weren't for her, Xuan Ye would have been impatient. Because of this, Lan Qi almost didn't appear in front of people after that, which really hurt his muscles and bones.

At this time, Xuan Ye came over, and Yu Kui in the door saw that the saint had arrived, and hurriedly went in to tell him, Xuan Ye first asked her master what he was doing, Yu Kui smiled and said: "Huan Chun is rubbing the master's legs, and the doctor said that the muscles and bones must be kneaded, it's been a few days, and the master has been afraid of pain and doesn't let the slaves and maids get started, but this is about to set off again, if you don't rub it, the mother is grinning in pain." ”

Xuan Ye took off his coat and came straight in, seeing Lan Qi lying face inside on the couch, Huan Chun kneeling on the side and pinching her legs and feet, Huan Chun used a little force, and the people on the bed trembled and struggled, Xuan Ye motioned for Huan Chun to come down, Lan Qi noticed the movement, and asked her happily: "Is it pinched?" Is it really good? ”

But before Huanchun could speak, the muscles on the back of her thigh were pinched twice, and the pain made Lan Qi's whole body twitch, and she turned around to blame Huanchun, at first glance, she saw Xuan Ye sitting on the side with a smile, and called her ashamed and angry, but she couldn't bear the pain as if she was falling apart, and knelt down softly and said, "Your Majesty, don't bully people, the concubine is in pain, these arms and legs are not their own, and even their backs hurt." ”

Seeing that she was pitiful, Xuan Ye sat closer and hugged her on his lap, gently kneading her back and arms, with such strength Lan Qi felt very comfortable, and was comfortably closing her eyes to enjoy it, when she suddenly woke up again, is she dying, let the emperor serve her? hurriedly struggled to climb away, but was slapped on the ass by Xuan Ye and scolded: "What are you messing with?" Your bones are as hard as stone. ”

"Now that I think about it, Sister Rong and they all admire the concubines, but if you want to do it again, the concubines will definitely not be strong." Lan Qi didn't dare to move anymore, and muttered regretfully, "The concubine can't even remember how she climbed up." ”

Xuan Ye remembered it clearly, remembering every look she had when she asked for help to indicate that she was about to die, but the two looked at each other for a while, and then they gritted their teeth and took steps again, to say the last part of the road, Xuan Ye did force her, but this person really could bear it, and he just went to the top. That experience was precious to Xuan Ye, but Lan Qi said that she didn't remember.

Xuan Ye couldn't help but pinched her leg, the person on her body shrank into a ball in pain, slowly crawled away and hid in the corner, covered her face with the quilt and said, "Your Majesty, go back quickly, the concubine will just lie down, I will definitely not be able to take care of you tonight." ”

Saying that, he poked out his head and wanted to call Huanchun, but where was there a figure in the room, Xuan Ye sat on the edge of the bed with a smile, and her body was steaming like a tiger and wolf, she, a stiff lamb, fell into the tiger's mouth tonight, and when Xuan Ye got close again, people cried and laughed and begged for mercy, and kept saying no, no.

Of course, Lan Qi can't be allowed to have the final say, but one night* seems to be alive and relaxed, and the next day I feel better than the previous days, my arms can be raised, and my legs can take a big step, Lan Qi is proud, and when she sees Huanchun and a few people snickering, she is embarrassed and no longer pays attention to them, and then it is still early in the morning, and the army set off again and went to Taoyuan County.

In the days that followed, the emperor wanted to inspect the Yellow River project, and there would be no kung fu and the love of the daughters, the eldest brother and the prince had been following their father, and the concubines were behind to take care of the prince and princess.

Xuan Ye moved from Suyu to Qinghe, and where he passed, he saw that the river workers were transporting soil, rolling down the piles, and ramming them very hard, all of them stayed for a long time, and they comforted him, and said: "I have always paid attention to river affairs, and every time I look at the river defense books and the names of the places where you have entered the river map and the dangerous workers in the palace, I will discuss it from time to time. Although he knew the difficulty of dangerous construction, he had never been on the river, and the turbulence of the river and the distance of the embankment could not be understood. Today, we have carefully surveyed the topography, measured the situation, and carefully inspected the areas of Xiaojiadu, Jiuligang, Cuijiazhen, Xushengba, Qiligou, Huangjiazui, and Xinzhuang, all of which are very dangerous. ”

If it is Yunyun, he pointed out the flood control project on the north bank of the Yellow River, and ordered Jin Fu, the governor of the river, to plan carefully and take appropriate measures, so that the water of the Yellow River will flow eastward, and the water will never be resolved.

On the 21st, the holy car took a boat through Gaoyou, Baoying and other places, where the flood was affected in the past, and now you can still see that the folk fields are mostly in the water, Xuanye landed on the shore and walked more than ten miles to inspect the water potential, summoned the local elderly, asked in detail the cause of the disaster, and ordered Wang Xinming, the governor of Jiangnan and Jiangxi, to plan the dredging of the water.

Two days later, the boat went to Zhenjiang and stayed overnight, as if the local famous products made the emperor remember in his heart, and he was with the imperial concubine at night, as if he was afraid that she would smell the vinegar and pantothenic acid, naturally this was just a joke of the women, and the imperial concubine herself should be joking to make the emperor happy.

In the blink of an eye, travel will be full of January, day and night, tired of boats and cars, from the beginning of the fatigue and discomfort, to now get used to it, the female dependents and children have spent the hardest days, tomorrow will cross the Yangtze River to climb the Golden Mountain, visit the Dragon Temple, walk a few days of waterway, are excited.

When night fell, Lan Qi and Concubine Rong went ashore to walk away, and the children were surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs, for fear that something would happen, but the two of them could feel at ease, naturally the concubines were limited, and there were guards around them to guard and protect, and they could not walk a few steps along the river, and they would go back and forth several times.

I just met Tong Concubine and Jue Chan also came out for a walk, and came over there to salute and say hello, the two of them walked close to the palace and everyone has always known, think about the beauty of the imperial concubine who can't tolerate Jue Chan's beauty, but the sister is close to others, it is also a very interesting thing, the four of them are not close to each other, and occasionally talk very harmoniously, and they want to go back to the boat together, only to board the boat not long ago, but they heard that there are female relatives on the boat armor laughing, it is a few nobles who accompany them together, they don't care, but a "Nalan Rongruo" came to their ears, Lan Qi and Jue Chan couldn't help but listen attentively.

It is said that Nalan Rongruo was in Gaoyou and other places for disaster relief, and he got married to Shen Wan, who is now raised in a private house, saying that he didn't expect him to take his female dependents south, and he could take that woman back to his hometown, I don't know if the young lady in the family was jealous and made him unable to make the trip, and talked about the admiration of the young lady in Beijing for the pearl of Nalan Mansion in the past, someone said: "At that time, I was still very young, and several aunts in the family always talked about Nalan Rongruo, saying that he was a talented son, and I remembered this name when I was a child. Each of them can recite the poems of Lord Nalan, I have always been curious about what this person should look like, I see it from time to time these days, it is really dignified, but it is a pity that my aunts are not destined to marry into the Pearl Mansion. ”

Concubine Rong and Concubine Tong walked in front and went into the cabin, Lan Qi and Jue Chan glanced at each other, Jue Chan smiled calmly, Lan Qi also felt stable in her heart, and nodded a little to go back with her, but I heard someone say: "What's the good thing about marrying him, the family has all wives and concubines, and we have to raise women in a private house outside, naturally we are blessed, follow the emperor, even if there are many sisters and sisters, after all, they are famous and superior." ”
