157, the comeback of the East Mountain (2)

The Empress Dowager half-squinted, staring at the baby in Tuoba Yao's arms, her expression was quite cold, not as kind and friendly as she used to treat the children in the royal family for a long time, and the Empress Dowager said, "Knighthood before the age of one, even if it is a royal heir, there has never been such a precedent, not to mention that it is still a concubine born of the prince of Danyang." ”

Feng Miao vaguely understood Tuoba Yao's intention from the words of the Empress Dowager, the young son was knighted, and she, the mother who raised the child, could naturally also have a title of edict, and many things were much more convenient from now on - such as entering and leaving the forbidden palace.

"Imperial grandmother," Tuoba Yao saw that the Empress Dowager did not agree, nor was she in a hurry, but just pleaded with a long voice, just like begging the Empress Dowager for something fun when she was a child, "Yao'er is helpless in the Danyang Palace, and only this child left by Yuxia is left." You also know that Liu Chengxu he ...... He was useless, and my mother-in-law indulged him again, and this year she chose several young concubines for him. If one of those concubines gives birth to a son and a half daughter, he will step on my head. Yao'er doesn't want a fief, such a young child, even if he gets a knighthood, it's just a false name, and it's just something that can make people look up to him. Imperial grandmother, is it possible that Yao'er has only been married for a few days, and you don't care about Yao'er? ”

Sure enough, it came out step by step in the door of the house, and the sixth princess, who was innocent and incomprehensible before, now only said a few words, and she clearly understood what she wanted in her heart.

The Empress Dowager rubbed her forehead and stopped talking, but she didn't let go of her mouth. Feng Miao already understood that the Empress Dowager would agree after all, she had always treated the princes and princesses of the Tuoba clan well, and it was not a big deal to give her concubine a false lord, not to mention that Tuoba Yao had been wronged when she got married. She just didn't want to agree so easily, making Tuoba Yao think that as long as she begged for a few words coquettishly, she could do anything.

In the silence, a soft curtain facing north was lifted, and a slender figure in a cherry-colored cardigan dress stepped out of the cubicle inside the curtain, laboriously holding a cedar tub in her hand. The man walked up to the Empress Dowager very naturally, knelt down, and placed the tub in front of the Empress Dowager.

I don't know what is used to soak the water in the basin, and there is a spicy smell of ginger, mixed with the crisp aroma of plum blossoms, mixed together, and smoked people intoxicated. "The Empress Dowager, the concubine will wait for you to soak your feet again. It is the cold season of spring, and this recipe can help people dredge the meridians and resist the cold, which is the most helpful for maintaining the jade body. ”

The heat rose up, and Feng Miao saw clearly at this time that it was Yuan Yingyue who served diligently like a maidservant in front of the Empress Dowager. She rolled up her sleeves high, took off the Empress Dowager's shoes with her own hands, picked up a little hot water and sprinkled it on the Empress Dowager's feet, tried the right water temperature, and then put the Empress Dowager's feet into the cedar tub and kneaded them carefully.

"Empress Dowager, do you feel that you have slept more peacefully at night these days? Soak for another three to five days, and your insomnia will be much better. When the weather is warm, the concubine will reduce some of the ginger in this recipe and replace it with cloves, which can also refresh her mind. Yuan Yingyue's words were naturally a little aggrieved and cautious, even if she talked about herbal prescriptions like this, it would make people feel as if she had been bullied.

The palace maid Banxia said on the side, "Niangniang, let the slave come, you just prepared the prescription by yourself, and you are already tired." ”

Yuan Yingyue shook her head: "I have to do it myself to rest assured." You go and see the white fungus stewed snow clams simmering on the stove, the empress dowager will sweat later, and drink a bowl of warm tonic hot......" She raised her head, as if she was too preoccupied just now, and then she saw Feng Miao, with a slightly embarrassed look on her face, but soon smiled and raised her face and said, "Sister is fine, I heard that my sister was sick two days ago, and my sister was thinking about going to see it, and I was afraid of disturbing the peace of my sister's illness." ”

In the two days that Feng Miao tried to give birth, in order to avoid suspicion, she kept letting Honeysuckle tell people that she had suffered from the wind and cold and was recuperating in Huayin Palace. She didn't say much at this time, and only replied politely, "It's important for my sister to serve the Empress Dowager, and I'm fine." ”

Yuan Yingyue suddenly blushed, and whispered, "Sister, don't be careful, Aunt Cui has been busy counting the manpower of the six bureaus in the past two days, and she really doesn't have time." I just happened to have a health recipe from home, so I went to the Queen Mother and did my best. My sister is all right. It's time for me to go back. ”

Feng Miao didn't say anything originally, but when she explained it like this, it seemed that she and Feng Qing were in front of the Empress Dowager on weekdays, and no one was allowed to step into the Fengyi Palace. In normal times, Feng Miao was not willing to worry about words with people, but today, I don't know why, I suddenly felt very unhappy in my heart. She has always had no ill will towards Yuan Yingyue, and even helped her several times, but she deliberately said such things at this time.

She naturally understood Yuan Yingyue's thoughts, now that the Gao family has been suppressed, and Feng Qing has made such a fuss again, the concubines who have been suppressed by the Gao and Feng families are trying to take this opportunity to fight for themselves. There must be more than one person in the palace who has such thoughts.

"Sister Yuan is afraid that she is too careful, the Empress Dowager is in good health, which is the blessing of the harem, and I privately hope that everyone will come to the Fengyi Hall to walk around, and talk and laugh like today, so as to relieve the empress dowager's boredom." Feng Miao smiled softly, "My sister lives very close to Cui Shuhua, Zheng Lingyi, and Wang Liangxin, next time I come to Fengyi Palace, I might as well call them to come with me, don't you say?" ”

Yuan Yingyue's face flushed slightly, as if she was being told the central matter, and her voice became lower and lower, "What my sister said is, my sister wrote it down." She used a soft flannel cloth to dry the moisture on the feet of the Empress Dowager, and put on soft-soled satin shoes for the Empress Dowager, and then asked Banxia to take out the cedar tub and stand aside with her hands down.

After a while, Banxia came in with stewed white fungus snow clams. The Empress Dowager squinted her eyes and was half-lying, and tasted a few bites of Yuan Yingyue's hand. Only then did he ask Tuoba Yao leisurely, "Yuxia, that girl, how do you plan to settle it?" ”

Tuoba Yao was stunned for a moment, and replied, "Although the child is raised under my knees, after all, she is the biological mother, I will tell my mother-in-law to give her the status of a concubine, so that she can rely on her for life." ”

The Empress Dowager nodded slightly, and then said, "After all, he is a child, and the Xujue gave it too much, but it folded his good life." In the eyes of the mourning family, it is better to wait until he reaches the age of one and let the emperor give him the false title of viscount. ”

The viscount is not very noble, and almost all the men in the Feng family are crowned kings, and even the sons and nephews of the Gao family have many titles of county dukes. Tuoba Yao has been accustomed to seeing noble clansmen since she was a child, and she was inevitably a little disappointed at this time, but in front of the Queen Mother, she couldn't say anything, so she could only thank her for her grace and return the child to Feishuang.

The Empress Dowager sat up and glanced at Feng Miao as if she had a deep meaning, but turned her head to Yuan Yingyue and said, "You don't have to spend all day here, now that the harem is not manpowered, you can also follow Cui Jinxin to learn to take care of the affairs of the inner palace." What did you learn when you were in your mother's house? ”

Yuan Yingyue lowered her eyebrows and replied pleasing to her eyes, "When the concubine is at home, she just helps her mother make some needlework." The sisters in the family married early, and sometimes they helped their mother-in-law check the account books and discipline the subordinates in the family, and they didn't do anything extraordinary. ”

"These are enough, go back and ask Jinxin, see which of the six games you are more familiar with, and learn to manage first." The Empress Dowager made up her mind and commanded resolutely.

"Yes, the concubine must do her best to learn." Yuan Yingyue seemed to be cowardly agreed, but there was a bit of joy in her voice that could not be concealed.

Feng Miaozai looked at her expression on the side, suddenly pursed her lips and smiled, walked up to the Empress Dowager and said, "Miao'er also has one thing, I want to plead with the Empress Dowager." Seeing the Empress Dowager looking at her, Feng Miao lowered her head and said humbly, "Taking this opportunity, Aunt Cui cleaned up the six internal bureaus, just enough to clear the accumulated shortcomings for many years." The concubine thought, although the weaving and dyeing workshop is newly established, it is also a part of the harem after all, and it is always so scattered outside the inner six bureaus, after all, it is not in accordance with the rules, it is better to bother Aunt Cui to organize it into the inner six bureaus. ”

As soon as she spoke, everyone else in the room looked at her with some strange meaning. Although it was not explicitly stated, in the eyes of everyone, the weaving and dyeing workshop has always only listened to Feng Miao's dispatch, and it is difficult for outsiders to intervene. Now that she is willing to take the initiative to give up the weaving and dyeing workshop, doesn't she even want her last bit of support?

Feng Miao sat down next to the Empress Dowager and rubbed the corners of her forehead for her, "Miao'er wants to be lazy and rest for more than ten days." When Aunt Cui has arranged it, let's see where we need manpower, and let me do it. ”

"That's fine." The Empress Dowager agreed lightly and said no more.

When he returned to Huayin Palace, Honeysuckle looked angry, but after all, he couldn't hold back, and asked, "Niangniang, how much effort have you put into the weaving and dyeing workshop, and now that it's finally a little bit done, are you going to give it to others?" ”

Feng Miao took a sip of porridge cooked with astragalus pumpkin and said, "I once heard people say that in the southern swamp, there is a monster that often floats on the water, and it looks like it is dead from a distance. There are waterfowl that like to eat carrion, and they will fall on it, thinking that they can have a full meal. Unexpectedly, the monster just pretended to be dead, and in the end, what he wanted to eat had became someone else's meal. ”

"The same is true of the situation now," she said, stroking her lower abdomen, "Originally, I was worried that I would lose my spirits because I had to keep the baby safe and prevent others from picking things out of the weaving and dyeing workshop." It's okay now, let them toss it, I'll just take care of it for a month. When this month is over, it is not certain who will eat whom. ”

She sighed, "I don't look for things, but things come to me, there is really no way." I have a few words, you go and tell Yu Xing in person, don't let others hear. You tell her again, let her be in good spirits this month, and change all the usual rough and leafy problems, as long as she does well, maybe, the grade tassels on her body will soon be replaced with bright purple. ”

Ming purple, that is only used by division-level palace maids, and it is also the most respected grade among the palace maids of the Inner Sixth Bureau.
