The day back to Beijing was a sunny day, the sun shone on the curtain and threw it into the car, and the double gauze curtain could not stop the scorching heat. Bayi Chinese Net ???.? ８?１?ｚ??．? com The second prince had to ask her to take him, and the nurse wanted to take him away, and he was making a fuss, and his angry little face was red, and he was sweating. Xie Ning looked distressed, beat the nursing mother and went back by herself, leaving her son in her car.

Fortunately, her car was spacious, there was ice at the bottom of the low, and it wasn't too hot in the car.

Xie Ning took a square cake to tease him, the second prince should be about to grow teeth, saliva is more than ever, this cake is soft, he has no teeth and grinds off a piece, he didn't eat much, but his face, hands and body are sticky. Xie Ning waited for this little ancestor to be convenient, wiped his hands and face for him, and found a pair of dry clothes for him to change into. The second prince tossed for a while, and then fell asleep in Xie Ning's arms.

Xie Ning twisted his little nose: "Little grinding spirit." ”

The second prince slept in Zhengxiang, and he didn't know how his mother praised and belittled him.

Xie Ning waited for him to fall asleep, and put him next to him and took a bamboo pillow to block it. Qinghe put away the clothes that the second prince had changed, washed them after he went back, and said softly: "Your Royal Highness is really relaxed, no matter where you go, you can eat and sleep well." The slave maid heard that some children would make a fuss when they changed places, and they couldn't sleep well without eating, but it was bothersome. ”

"He has enough to eat and drink and has to be accompanied by someone, and he is not easy to serve without one."

Qinghe poured half a cup of tea for Xie Ning: "Usually accompanied by His Royal Highness the Great Prince, the master is also worry-free." It's that Her Royal Highness the princess looks like to be the first, but whenever the master hugs the second highness, the princess is not very happy. ”

"Really?" Xie Ning usually didn't pay much attention to it, but now when he heard Qinghe say it, it seemed to be the case. “

Outside, the sound of horses' hooves was loud, Qinghe straightened up and tore open a corner of the curtain to look out, turned around and said with a smile: "Master, it is the person in front of the emperor, and the emperor has summoned you to ......."

Before she could finish her sentence, the two horses had already passed their car.

Qinghe was stunned, and immediately regretted his words, but Xie Ning didn't take it to heart: "Eighty percent is a messenger, put down the curtain, look at the dust." ”

Qinghe put down the curtain a little hesitantly, and he still remembered it in his heart.

The emperor won't be a messenger to summon someone else to accompany him, right?

Fortunately, she didn't hear anything else after a while, so she was relieved for the time being.

Xie Ning wore a silk embroidered peony gauze shirt lined with a pink undershirt, if the emperor called her to accompany her, this body would have been suitable, but she was rubbed with several saliva marks by the second prince just now, although the emperor didn't mind, it would be a little inappropriate for others to see it.

Besides, the emperor must not be idle on the way, there are many things to do, and there may not be time to meet the people in the harem.

But when he stopped eating at noon, Qinghe heard about something.

The emperor did summon someone to accompany him.

is not the master of her family, nor is it Gao Jieyu, Chen Jieyu, Li Zhaorong, these people who accompany them, but Shi Shunyi, who has always been unfavorable.

Shi Shunyi is not good-looking, she has always been unfavored, and everyone in the harem also treats her as a mouthless bodhisattva, but she is just an ornament. I never thought that the emperor couldn't think of others on the road, but he could still think of her?

No, it's not. Qinghe pondered, the emperor must have something to ask Shi Shunyi about Princess Mingshou or Concubine Xian, right? After all, there are not many people in the palace who have come from that year, Gao Jieyu is barely one, but her qualifications are still inferior to Shi Shunyi, Shi Shunyi was in the palace with the first queen. In addition, Shi Shunyi was born in the queen's mother's family, and this time Princess Mingshou rebelled, the emperor may have something to ask her.

As for others, it's similar to what Qinghe thinks. The emperor's taste is not so much, Shi Shunyi is old and inconspicuous, and the emperor can't worry about her.

Princess Mingwei came over for dinner and sent two road dishes from her house to Xie Ning to taste. The same is the dried ham, all cut into dices, both simmered on the fire for a long time, the soup is exhausted, it tastes fragrant and full of mouth, very chewy, salty and fresh, revealing a little spicy. The other is pickled vegetarian fresh, bamboo shoots and mushrooms mixed together, which is very refreshing to eat.

Princess Mingwei smiled and said: "This is the secret recipe of the horse's family, and it is sealed with wax in a small jar after it is done, and you can take it to eat for a long time." When I went to Beijing to take the exam, I brought a lot of them. I also asked him at the time if he not only prepared to eat on the road, but also saved money for food after arriving in the capital, guess what he said? ”

Xie Ning followed her words and asked, "What do you say?" ”

"Before I got halfway out, I let the people on the same road coax and eat it all." She laughed.

Shainin also smiled.

"I heard that Shi Shunyi went over to accompany him?"

Xie Ning glanced at her: "You are very well-informed, I haven't heard of it." ”

"Don't look at me, I'm afraid that you won't be happy in my heart, so I came to tell you. The royal brother has never liked Shi Shunyi, and he has never looked at her very seriously. It is said that the former queen felt that Concubine Shu was a big threat, and she had no good news for a long time, so she wanted to find someone to fix her favor, and by the way, she could also show her reputation as virtuous. I guess she might want to borrow Shi Shunyi's belly. She didn't worry about being beautiful, Shi Shunyi looked good at birth and was promoted, but where did the emperor like her? ”

"Shi Shunyi heard that it was brought by the queen's mother's family?"

"That's right, everybody knows that."

Xie Ning asked casually: "What about her parents and relatives?" Is he also a descendant of the Hou Mansion? ”

Princess Mingshou thought for a while: "I don't know about this, it should be." You also know that what you buy outside is not as trustworthy as your family's children, but Shi Shunyi's parents should be long gone, and I haven't heard that she has taken care of her relatives outside in so many years. ”

After saying a few words, Princess Mingwei sent the food and went back with the maidservant.

In the evening, the royal car entered the palace gate, and Xie Ning took the child back to Yong'an Palace directly.

After a long absence, I felt a little touched when I came back.

Although the scenery in the garden is beautiful and spacious, when I return to Yong'an Palace, there is a place in my heart that is really down-to-earth. The eldest prince was carried out of the car by the eunuch, and he took medicine to relieve the heat in advance, but he was groggy and had no energy all the way. Princess Yuyao was also tired, and her eyelids fell straight down.

Xie Ning ordered someone to take the two children to wash their faces and change their clothes, so that Hu Rong didn't have to worry about anything else, and it was important to call the imperial doctor to come over and take a look at the two children. After a day in the car, she was not very comfortable, and she had no appetite for dinner. When Qingmei asked how to arrange it, Xie Ning raised his hand and said, "Let them pick up fresh and light things to make a few things, and then prepare some refreshing supper, the emperor may come over at night." ”

Qingmei answered.

Fang Shanggong supported Xia Hong and Xia Yue to settle down and pack the house, these two girls deserved to be sent by Bai Hongqi, they were smart and diligent, and their hands and feet were quick, which really came in handy at this time.

Xie Ning originally planned to eat two bites of food casually at night and beat the children to rest earlier, but she expected the wrong thing, and the meal box here just mentioned that the emperor would come to Yong'an Palace.

There were moths flapping their wings next to the stone lamps in the courtyard, Xie Ning led the child out of the house, and saluted at the edge of the corridor, the emperor walked to him and stretched out his hand to her, Xie Ning took his hand and stood up.

"I thought the emperor wouldn't come, we were about to eat."

The emperor seems to be very tired today: "Add another pair of dishes and chopsticks, and the dishes will not be used." ”

It is said that there is no food, but in fact, it is also to be added, and the people in the dining room also brought the side dishes prepared for supper or something.

Seeing that the two children were not in good spirits, the emperor inevitably asked more.

"Li ordered him to rest early, and he will be fine tomorrow. It's not a big deal, it's just that I'm tired from the journey. ”

The emperor nodded at this time.

After dinner, Xie Ning accompanied the emperor to the small study.

The emperor brought a lot of folds with him, much more than in the garden.

Xie Ning still helped tidy it up, the tea was brewed with ink, and when she was about to retreat to the side, the emperor called her.

"Sit down, I have something to say to you."

Xie Ning couldn't tell what he wanted to say from the emperor's expression, and obediently sat down on the round stool next to him.

"Look at you, don't be like you want to be lectured when you hear it." The emperor took her hand and asked her to sit closer: "It's two things." One thing is the excerpt of King Wei and King Yue's joint name, please kill Ming Shou. ”

Xie Ning understood the meaning of the joint folding of the names of these princes in the clan, especially King Wei was over seventy years old and had been in charge of Zongzheng Temple for many years, so his meaning was almost the meaning of the entire Li clan.

In other words, Princess Mingshou has to die.

"And what else is it?"

"I met Shi Shunyi today. I don't have to hide it from you, she can be regarded as a credit in the matter of Ming Shou, she reported the news to me before Ming Shou rebelled, and identified several of Ming Shou's henchmen. Those who are guilty should be punished, and those who have merit should be rewarded. However, how to reward needs to be considered. ”

These two things are considered political affairs, and the harem cannot interfere in politics. But at the same time, these two things can be regarded as the emperor's family affairs, Mingshou is a princess after all, and Shi Shunyi is a harem concubine, so the emperor told her about it, and it is not against the palace rules.

There is nothing to say about the previous one, since Princess Mingshou is already mortal, Xie Ning has no objection to this matter. Princess Mingshou was at odds with her, but Xie Ning didn't want to sway the emperor's thoughts because of his personal love and hatred.

The latter emperor had the intention of consulting with her.

Xie Ning asked: "How does the emperor want to reward Shi Shunyi?" ”

Rewarding courtiers is promotion, and rewarding the harem is the same, promotion.

Shi Shunyi will be promoted to the concubine position again.

"When I saw her today, she pleaded with me. She said that she was only born as a slave and maid, and she didn't dare to occupy a high position, for fear that everyone in the harem would not be convinced. Ruo Zhen really had the heart to reward her, she said that she had been lonely in the palace for many years and wanted to raise a child. ”

Shainin's hand trembled.

I see. No wonder the emperor wanted to talk to her about this, it turned out that Shi Shunyi made such a request.
