"Although Yuan promised to do something ugly, the palace was curious about what happened to the one in Qixiang Palace, not only her." Concubine Duan sat on the side and shuffled the cards in her hand, and said, "It's a pity if it's really disfigured as the legend in the palace, but the emperor seems to be good to her, and she is finally a blessed person." ”

Lan Qi was silent lightly, she was worried that she was too excited to arouse suspicion, but Concubine Rong said on the side: "That day, she bumped into the people in Ningshou Palace who were doing unscrupulous things, and was injured again, although no one dared to accuse the Queen Mother of not being strict under the rule, it was still the Queen Mother's business after all." I guess that the emperor is afraid that the queen mother will be unhappy when she sees the secret nobles, and she is so arrogant and domineering before, and the queen mother has always been disgusted, so whether the emperor asked her to stay and not come out, or the queen mother told the emperor that she didn't want to see her in the future, we don't know. But she didn't have anything to do this year, isn't it good, Yuan promised to be curious, and she had to make something to do, she had to suffer. ”

Duan Concubine said with a smile: "It's not difficult to guess what Yuan promised to do, in the past, there were secret nobles who pressed her, and the secret nobles were unhappy, and our Zhongcui Palace had Chen Chang again, no wonder she couldn't stand it, but there were new people in the future, couldn't she live?" ”

Lan Qi then spoke: "Xu gave birth to a girl, so her heart is higher, anyway, she is from Concubine Hui's house, let's leave it alone." ”

But Lan Qi just said this, she couldn't really ignore it, and she was already thinking about when she would go to Qixiang Palace to see the secret nobles.

As for Yuan promised, he was reprimanded by Concubine Hui after being sent back to Changchun Palace, and now Concubine Hui's eldest brother is the time when the spring breeze is proud of his achievements, and the emperor likes his eldest son more and more, Concubine Hui doesn't even dare to do some things that Mingzhu explains, for fear of self-defeating and harming her son, but she doesn't want to make a small promise in the house to make a fuss.

And Yuan promised to make a fuss in Qixiang Palace, and he didn't find anything new, at most, the eunuchs and palace maids in Qixiang Palace were all replaced, but earlier he said that in order to punish those slaves for not protecting Wang Changzai, a group was sent away, and this year, it is not surprising that people have been slowly replaced. What's more, Qixiang Palace has always been able to enter and exit, and it has not become a forbidden place, not necessarily there are unspeakable secrets there, but the secret nobles have not seen anyone, which makes her so curious that she can't bear it.

Concubine Hui has a good idea of this, how can a Han woman not make a big move, even if the prince dies at the moment, the emperor spoils her to heaven, and it will not be her son's turn to compete for the position of the East Palace, how can the opponent of herself and the eldest brother not be their mother and son, what is really worth fearing is Yonghe Palace, for example, no matter how beautiful Yonghe Palace is, people can't catch a little shortcoming, this is the power of Concubine De.

Two days later, Lan Qi took advantage of the fact that the Queen Mother wanted to see the fifteenth elder brother and sixteenth elder brother, personally went to Qixiang Palace to pick up the children, and waited for the elder brothers to wear kung fu, and unconsciously arrived at the East Side Palace. ”

Mi Gui's popularity is very good, and after a year, he has already recovered his weakness after giving birth to the little princess that day. She was originally a person who lived in her own house and did not go out, and now she stays in Qixiang Palace, and she will not feel bored, and there are more people here and two children as companions, most of the time there are no guests on weekdays, they all play with the children in the courtyard, and the concubines are also harmonious with her, and the life is very nourishing.

Lan Qi saw that she was so good, and she was even more relieved, saying that when the little princess grew up again, she would be able to run a rope, and it would not be difficult to bring her to play, but the secret nobleman said: "The concubine fell asleep after giving birth, and the child never looked at it, but did not worry about it, knowing that it was Mama Su Mala who took care of it, and it was more reassuring to know that it was Mama Su who took care of her, and the fifteenth elder brother and sixteenth elder brother were very cute, and the concubine put all her thoughts on them." ”

"It's just that you are so good, I feel even more embarrassed for you, but unfortunately there is no way, you are helping the emperor Zhou Quan, you can rest assured, the emperor will not treat you badly." Lan Qi said, the fifteenth elder brother outside was already shouting, so she said goodbye to the secret nobles, came out to take the two children, and the concubine followed aside and asked softly, "Niangniang, will Yuan promise to come like that?" Is it better for the concubine not to go out in the future, you took care of it before, let the concubine not go around, but there are some things that the concubine can't get rid of. ”

"It doesn't matter, you and Concubine Jing have always been intimate, if you don't move around, it's strange, you have done a good job this year, and the emperor has praised you to me." Lan Qi gently gave the concubine a reassuring medicine, but also advised, "But you can't relax when you are born, the door of Qixiang Palace still needs to be optimistic, everyone is at ease, isn't it?" ”

Saying these words, Lan Qi knew that she was cruel, but she couldn't do it, this was something that had to be cruel, and she had already had human blood on her hands, although she still had a soft heart, she wouldn't hesitate too much when it was time to be cold and hard.

The days passed day by day, the good news ahead, the Mid-Autumn Festival women gathered in Ningshou Palace, although there was no extravagance and liveliness, but because there was always good news from the front line, everyone was happy, and several elder brothers Fujin stood up with a round belly full of joy, and it was a good year for the prosperity of the country and the prosperity of the royal family.

Leaving the palace after the Mid-Autumn Festival was dispersed, because the Queen Mother liked it, Nian Tong was left in Ningshou Palace, and it took a few days for her to pick her up. Thinking that there would be nothing to do in the next few days, I wanted to go back to my parents' house, but when I washed before going to bed, the maid who was close to me reminded her: "Fujin has not come to the monthly letter for almost two months, do you want to ask the doctor to take a look, will it be happy?" ”

Yuxi didn't care about this at all, her monthly letter has never been accurate, and because of this, she always rushed to the doctor to see, but she was repeatedly overjoyed, and the embarrassment of such a loss was very heart-wrenching, and since the summer, she didn't even take fetal medicine, plus she ate a lot of raw and cold things in those days, and she didn't feel any discomfort in her body these days, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What's there to make a fuss about, Zuo is just as messy as before, and I'm taking medicine to recuperate in winter, don't talk too much." ”

After sending the next person, Yuxi touched her belly, she couldn't resist the coldness, Eniang confessed that she would not have children, and the doctor also asserted that she could not sit on the fetus, what if the monthly letter did not come for two months, it was not uncommon not to come for the rest of her life. Thinking of this, one side is sad and sad, and then another thing is remembered. She has already agreed with Yinzhen that she wants him to live in Li Fang Fujin's West Garden for a period of time, and she must let Fang Fujin conceive another child, even if it is to fulfill her selfish thoughts, she can't take care of it, no matter what, the fourth elder brother can't live without a son.

As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival passed, the weather became colder and colder, and the news came from the front that the emperor led his troops to chase all the way from Ordos to Ningxia, and Galdan finally surrendered without a fight, so the emperor stopped the pursuit and announced that he would return to Beijing in mid-September.

When the ladies said these words, they pretended to discuss a few words behind closed doors, not understanding why the emperor didn't kill Galdan, and let him go again and again, who knows what will happen later, the emperor was furious for Prince Yu to let Galdan go, but now he is doing exactly the same thing, obviously chasing so far, but he turned back halfway. Lan Qi listened to their chatter, and she didn't understand it very well, so she only went to visit Su Mala's grandmother later, and Mama told her about the current situation in the grassland, the emperor didn't kill Galdan, it should be to respond to the plot of Alabutan, and with the existence of Galdan, Mobei and Mo Nan will also be wary, and they will rely more on the Qing court.

When she said these words, Mama smiled at Lanqi: "Niangniang is not taboo about government now?" ”

Lan Qi was embarrassed, but also said calmly: "From the front, I respected the rules and was always cautious, and now it doesn't seem to be hypocritical, but when the child grows up, I occasionally talk to Yinzhen, and I can't keep up with his words, if I can't even listen to it, he doesn't dislike me, I feel uncomfortable." In that way, I will become more and more estranged from my son, and I can't bear it. ”

Mama also said: "There is nothing wrong with Niangniang knowing something, the Empress Dowager used to be just watching the fire of the previous dynasty, as long as she didn't lose her sense of proportion, she really ran to point her fingers at the country." It's better to know than not to know, it seems that the last time Concubine Yi made a joke, she was proud in the palace for so long, but the emperor sent a large army to send her relatives, but in fact, she was looking for trouble with Galdan, which made her very embarrassed. ”

Lan Qi smiled: "The embarrassment is also what we said, she herself is still very proud, Concubine Yi has been much better than earlier these years, in fact, now the concubines in the palace are no longer as troublesome as before, but I still occasionally feel uneasy in my heart, out of nowhere, everything in front of me is calm and peaceful." ”

Mama looked at Lan Qi meaningfully, and just said for a while: "People have no long-term worries, there must be near-term worries, and there is nothing wrong with Niangniang." ”

In the middle of September, the emperor drove the second royal expedition to Galdan, returned with a great victory, after the Eight Banners soldiers entered the city, the elder brothers followed the emperor to report the victory to the queen mother, and then dispersed to their biological mothers to ask for peace, Yonghe Palace Yuxi waited with Lan Qi early, Lan Qi knew that the two of them were newlywed, and did not delay their son's speech, and sent them back to the house early.

Seeing her husband return safely, Yuxi was of course full of joy, but she had more important things in her heart, as soon as the couple entered the house, she stopped, pushed Yinzhen and said: "Okay, you will live in Xiyuan in the future, I have instructed my sister, she will take care of you, you have worked hard all the way, have a good rest." ”

Yin Zhen looked at his wife blankly, and Yuxi smiled gently: "You promised me." ”

"But you must be in ......a hurry" Yinzhen wanted to push back, he rushed back, there were too many words to say to Yuxi, but his wife pushed herself away.

"Let's go." Yuxi was not sad, but with a gentle smile on her face, she urged her husband, "You are like this, my sister should be embarrassed." ”

Yin Zhen was helpless, after all, he had promised Yuxi in person, and after a deep sigh, he turned around and walked to Xiyuan, his heart was extremely depressed and not good, his hand clenched his fist tightly, but he only walked out of a dozen steps away, and suddenly heard a panic after hearing it, he turned around and saw Yuxi, who was standing in place, fell down, and he was so startled that he immediately ran over, and before he got close to his wife's body, he had heard the maid shouting: "Fujin is bleeding." ”
