The day before the Wanshou Festival, Eshuo found that his son had pox, and because he was afraid of smallpox, he isolated Feiyangu and everyone who had been in contact with him, and sent someone to the palace and the yamen of the military department to deliver a message to take a few days off to avoid bringing pox into the court.

Naturally, what is more important is the day when Concubine Xian Niangniang enters the palace, please ask the emperor to consider it again.

But Fu Lin's brain was hot, and he ordered E Shuo not to make a noise first, as long as Concubine Xian did not show symptoms, she would be sent to the palace on the original day.

At that time, at the family banquet, Fu Lin was restless, just wondering if Feiyangu had pox or smallpox, and he also considered whether it was appropriate to let Jiayin wait a few more days to enter the palace.

As a result, his mother didn't discuss a word with him, and directly forbade Jiayin from entering the palace, and Fulin felt that he was not respected and cared about, so there was a later mother-son conflict.

He felt that he was actually already thinking about whether to let Jia Yin wait, but his mother took it for granted that he would pick up the person regardless of it.

Mother and son are forever entangled in such misunderstandings.

Su Mala persuaded Gege, she didn't like to listen to the first emperor's explanations when she was young, and she always thought about everything by herself when she encountered problems, and the first emperor could still suppress her and reprimand her, and make it clear word by word according to her.

But the emperor is in a hurry, and people refuse to say anything even if they have something in their hearts.

The mother and son were so stiff, and it wasn't until mid-February that Eshuo's family survived Feiyanggu's pox safely, and Fulin breathed a sigh of relief, even if Jiayin's entry into the palace did not go well, there was no worry about his life.

On this day, Su Mala came to see the emperor with refreshments, and this farewell was half a month.

Obviously, you can take a look at it after walking a few steps, how can the Forbidden City be so big, but the emperor held his breath and didn't want to see the queen mother, and the queen mother didn't want to see her son.

Wu Liangfu's injuries have healed, and when he saw Su Malaha's waist hunched over to curry favor, Su Mala said half-truthfully: "The Queen Mother was angry that night, so she took you out, you should have a light on your face, but don't hate the Queen Mother behind your back, then you have no conscience."

"The minions don't dare, the minions don't da......re," Wu Liangfu said in a loud voice, sending Su Mala into the door.

When Fulin saw her, his face was reluctant, but in the end he asked, "How is Eniang?" ”

Su Mala said with a smile: "It's about to start spring, it's inevitable to be lazy, and the Queen Mother is fine." The slave maid heard that Concubine Xian's family was fine, so she came to congratulate the emperor. ”

Fu Lin put down the pen and ink in his hand, walked to the window and said, "On the day I enter the palace, can I call the shots?" ”

Su Mala said: "It is for this matter, although Concubine Xian's family has spent it safely, the Queen Mother hopes that the emperor can wait patiently for a while." Spring is in full bloom, and various diseases are also prone to outbreaks, just in case. ”

"What if?" Fu Lin said annoyedly, "In the eyes of Eniang, can Jiayin still be good?" ”

"Your Majesty, don't be impatient." Su Mala said gently, "The Queen Mother is not afraid that Concubine Xian Niangniang will enter the palace with illness, but she is afraid that if something happens, others will accuse Concubine Xian Niangniang of not." Your Majesty, even if Concubine Xian Niangniang delays entering the palace, what is actually spread is your will. ”

"That's why I feel even more helpless, it's obviously what Eniang meant, but it became what I meant, it's better for her to just say her, I can feel a little less uncomfortable." Fu Lin had no scruples in front of Su Mala, and said in a hurry: "E-Niang always makes decisions for me, always makes decisions for me, and always ...... Forcing me to make a decision. ”

Su Mala didn't speak, opened the food box, put down the refreshments and fruits one by one, the hall was quiet for a while, Wu Liangfu had to bite the bullet and said, several ministers who had received the sign were waiting for the face saint in the room.

"Your Majesty, the slaves and maids will retire first." Su Mala said.

"Su Mala, you...... Take care of Eniang. Fulin said, "Anyway, E-Niang said it herself, and she didn't want to see me." ”

Su Mala bowed to receive the order, and walked out of the Qianqing Palace, Wu Liangfu followed aside, and as soon as she turned around, Wu Liangfu was so frightened that he hurriedly bowed his head.

"You have your way to survive, but if you do a good job for the emperor, there are some things, the queen mother and I have turned a blind eye, the food around the emperor is not delicious, the queen mother is very considerate of you." Su Mala said.

"Queen Mother Longen, Aunt Daen." Wu Liangfu knelt down.

"But you remember to me, if you dare to instigate the mother-son relationship between the emperor and the queen mother, I can make you not even have bones left." Su Mala knocked on Wu Liangfu's hat, "Not just you, but anyone in this Forbidden City." ”

"The minions obey."

"The next time you are beaten, if you dare to shout, you will be killed directly." Su Mala said, "When the time comes, I will give all the little women you raised in the outer house to your apprentices." ”

Wu Liangfu's heart was beating suddenly, and sure enough, Cining Palace's eyes and ears were all over the world, and he couldn't hide anything from the Queen Mother.

But......

Wu Liangfu sent Su Mala away, and after returning to the Qianqing Palace, he said to the emperor: "The younger brother of Concubine Xian Niangniang had pox, and the Queen Mother only found out about it on the night of Wanshou Day. ”

Fu Lin snorted and asked impatiently, "What are you doing with this matter now?" ”

Wu Liangfu said: "Your Majesty, no matter who stabbed this matter in front of the Queen Mother, at least the Queen Mother didn't send someone to keep an eye on Concubine Xian Niangniang and didn't spy on her, don't you say?" ”

Fu Lin glared at Wu Liangfu and said angrily: "Go and bring the people in the room on duty to see me, what are you doing with so much nonsense?" ”

Wu Liangfu knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is sincere in fulfilling you and Concubine Xian, and you can't live up to the Queen Mother's kindness." ”

Fu Lin said in a deep voice: "Su Mala asked you to say it?" ”

Wu Liangfu's head shook like a rattle: "The slave implores the emperor to admit his mistake to the Queen Mother, and the family and everything will be prosperous, otherwise how will the virtuous concubine and the mother deal with herself after entering the palace in the future." ”

"So what should I do? Is there an end to such a thing as admitting mistakes and kowtowing? Fu Lin was unwilling, patted the table and said, "Why can't she ask me, I was already thinking about whether to take people into the palace that night, did she ask?" ”

Wu Liangfu has two big heads, and he understands in his heart that the emperor can't get a virtuous concubine now, and everything is not going well, and he may be able to persuade him in the past, but now he is good at talking, and he can't persuade him in half a sentence.

However, on this day, in a remote corner of the Shengjing Palace, in the courtyard heavily guarded by the guards, the palace maid who delivered food came to deliver food to the crazy woman, but saw her holding two puppets, it seemed that the original needles were missing, and they were holding stones and smashing them on the puppet's head desperately.

A few days later, the two puppets were sent to Beijing, Su Mala knelt on the ground and watched, trembling with anger, Yuan Xi came to the study with tea, saw this scene, stunned and didn't know whether to improve or retreat.

Yu'er asked disapprerovingly: "Yuan Xi, do you believe in the divine power of ghosts?" ”

Yuan Xi shook his head: "The concubine doesn't know how to answer you, the Queen Mother and Eniang both believe in Buddhism, but believe in Buddhism but don't believe in ghosts and divine powers, is it a contradiction?" ”

Yu'er glanced at her: "Anyway, you don't believe in Buddhism, do you?" ”

Yuan Xi hurriedly said: "Concubine Xin, that's it...... Can't sit still. ”

Yu'er said with a smile: "I know, next time I will punish you, I will punish you to recite scriptures, meditate and copy scriptures." ”

"Queen Mother, did the concubine do something wrong?" Yuan Xi looked innocent, and then turned her head to see Aunt Su Mala standing up by herself, which showed that it was not the Queen Mother who punished her for kneeling.

"Do you know what this kind of thing is for?" Yu'er pouted at the two puppets in Su Mala's hand and asked Yuan Xi, "Have you seen it?" ”

Yuan Xi nodded: "If you go back to the Queen Mother, the concubine has seen it, this is a villain." When I was a child, my aunt at home took this thing to cry and complain that she was cursed by the concubine. ”

Yu'er asked, "How did you deal with it?" ”

Yuan Xi responded: "E-Niang took her aunt to the temple to burn it, took her aunt to live in the temple for a few days, and then went home and drove the little concubine away in front of her uncle." ”

"Your mother is a neat and neat person, no wonder she gave birth to you so well." Yu'er was very satisfied, so she instructed Yuan Xi, "Let your mother go to Tianning Temple to wait for you, and your mother and daughter will handle this matter for me, and you don't have to talk about it to others." If others ask, they will say that I will let you go to Tianning Temple and invite the Buddha to worship on my behalf. ”

Yuan Xi left the palace on the same day and went straight to Tianning Temple.

Mrs. Tong was shocked to hear that the puppet was written on the birthday of the emperor and the queen mother, and she did not dare to slack off, and presided over the abbot to personally take the disciples to chant and pray for the queen mother and the emperor to eliminate disasters and eliminate karma. If she was sent back to the palace from the temple, she said that Concubine Tong would stay in Tianning Temple for seven days before coming back.

Wu Liangfu also told the emperor, but Fu Lin didn't think so, only knew that Yuan Xi went to Tianning Temple to worship the Buddha for his mother, and didn't ask anything.

Tong Concubine prayed in the temple, outsiders did not know, Tianning Temple said that the Buddha Hall was repaired, and pilgrims were not received within seven days.

But some aristocratic ladies did not dare to delay the petition and repayment, and they still came in twos and threes, but they did not find that the lady in the palace was living in the temple.

On this day, Eshuo's stepwife brought Feiyangu and Jiayin to repay her vows, thanking the Buddha for his blessing and sheltering Feiyangu for his smooth recovery.

Yuan Xi heard that Xiao Shami said that it was the lady and young lady of the Eshuo Mansion who arrived, so he hurriedly got up and went out to greet him, even if Dong E's family had not yet entered the palace, the will to canonize the virtuous concubine had already been made.

The step-lady did not have the consciousness that her daughter was already the imperial concubine, and when she saw Yuan Xi, she hurriedly stepped forward to salute, but saw Yuan Xi coming respectfully and bowed to Jia Yin behind her: "The concubine knocks on the virtuous concubine." ”
