When Sonny heard this, she immediately got up from the chair, but Yu'er took tea and said, "You better go back to the house and lie down." ”

"The Queen Mother, the Emperor ......"

"For Fu Lin, if you are really sick, he will feel better."

Sonny nodded and quickly left the study with his wife, while Yu'er drank tea before following unhurriedly.

When she arrived, a screen had been erected in the room, and a large pear wood chair was facing the people on the sickbed through the screen.

After she had not been sitting down for a short time, there was silence outside the door, and she could hear the words of the emperor and the imperial concubine all the way, and Mrs. Sonny and her daughters-in-law greeted her and knelt in a row in front of the door.

"Madame, please." It was the voice of the imperial concubine, and soon after, Jia Yin followed Fu Lin and walked in.

The two saluted Yu'er, and Yu'er smiled: "The imperial concubine is thinly dressed, it's not warm this day, you have to be careful of your body." ”

Mrs. Sonny stepped forward and said, "Niangniang, you can come with your concubine to bake the fire and warm your body." ”

Jia Yin knew that a few people wanted to talk about national affairs, and it was not appropriate for her to be a concubine by her side, so she naturally expressed her willingness with interest, and after greeting Sony, she said goodbye to the emperor and the queen mother.

Fu Lin saw Jia Yin leave, full of anxiety overflowing, Yu'er disagreed, and said to herself: "Sony's health is already better, the emperor attaches so much importance to him, he won't dare to get sick again in the future." ”

Fu Lin reluctantly smiled and said: "E-niang said that I laughed, I don't want Lord Suo to be sick in the future, and I still support the court, naturally, I wish you good health and toughness, which is the blessing of the court and the blessing of the Qing Dynasty." ”

Sonny sat up, ordered the maidservant to remove the screen, the three of them faced each other, and he said earnestly: "The emperor has come to visit the old minister in the cold house, and the minister has a few heartfelt words to say to the emperor. The emperor protected Wu Liangfu this time, and the world was in an uproar, but there was no turning back from the bow, this matter is already so, and I hope that the emperor can eliminate the impact on the government and the opposition this time with the wise rule of the world in the future. ”

Fu Lin bowed: "I understand what you mean, but the future wise rule is also indispensable to the assistance and support of the ministers, this time, it is indeed my recklessness, between years of affection and the great right and wrong, Lord Suo is watching me grow up, I hope you can understand my embarrassment." ”

Yu'er was on the side, silent, and Fulin looked at her mother and said: "Eniang, I will not allow Wu Liangfu to commit it again, Jia Yin, as the imperial concubine, is in charge of the six palaces, and she has promised me that she will restrain the collusion between the inner palace and the foreign ministers to pay bribes." ”

"The imperial concubine is responsible, no wonder the emperor likes her." Yu'er said, "In the harem, she will take care of the affairs, so naturally she can't be wrong." The division of labor of the thirteen yamen is detailed, although the affairs of the inner palace can be managed in an orderly manner, but in the end, the master is still in charge of the slaves, isn't it? You ordered the imperial concubine to lead the harem, which is naturally better. ”

Fu Lin nodded, looked at Sonny again, and said: "I will continue to investigate and deal with the people involved in the case, some royal families, even if they do not know how to suppress them, I will gradually withdraw their rights and status, purge the dynasty, and never wronged loyal ministers and good ministers." ”

Sonny clenched his fists: "The emperor is wise." ”

Fu Lin said reverently: "I came today, first, to visit your illness, and then to apologize to you. ”

Sonny got down from the bed tremblingly, not daring to bear the emperor's debt, Fu Lin stepped forward to help him and asked him to lie down: "Only the Queen Mother is here, not the court, it is a private family, only elders and gentlemen, and I am a junior and a student." ”

How dare Sony, repeatedly asked the emperor not to say this, as a minister, he should have followed the emperor with all his heart.

Yu'er smiled: "That's it, don't blame yourself too much, Sony is thin-skinned and soft-eared, anyway, things are going in a good direction, from now on, the monarch and the ministers are united, you manage the government together, I will feel at ease." ”

Fu Lin's eyes flickered slightly, at this moment, if he invited his mother back to the palace and supported Jiayin to learn how to take care of the harem, it would be a good opportunity, but his selfishness still hoped that his mother would stay away from the government.

Today's meeting is the best example, in the end, it is the face of the Queen Mother that can support the hearts of the ministers.

Fulin was very envious, even more jealous, he didn't even have the confidence that when he reached Eniang's age, he could deal with the relationship between monarchs and ministers so easily.

"You guys talk, it's more calm to talk about state affairs in private than in the court." Yu'er got up and said, "It's rare for me to come here, I want to go around, it just so happens that the imperial concubine is also there, and our mother and son are companions." ”

Fu Lin bowed to see him off, and Sonny ordered his family to serve the Queen Mother, and Yu'er came elsewhere surrounded by the female dependents.

"The imperial concubine is in the garden, the queen mother, be careful that the stone road is not stable." Mrs. Sonny said cautiously, "I knew that the Queen Mother was coming, and the concubine should have ordered someone to pave the way with loess." ”

"Although the loess is flat, the dust makes it smoky, and the shoes are dirty." Yu'er said, "Look at this large area of gravel road, it is clean and neat, that is, when the autumn sun sets and the spring sun rises, it is difficult to pick up, right?" ”

Mrs. Sonny said with a smile: "The concubine body will not be picked up, but those who are in charge of cleaning have already practiced their skills for many years, and it is not difficult for them at all, so the concubine body does not have to worry about it." ”

Yu'er praised: "You said this well, in the end, it is the wife of the first minister of the Qing Dynasty, people have their own duties, each has their own strengths, and employing people without doubt is the way to rule." It is not a good thing for those in power to bow down to everything. ”

Mrs. Sonny didn't dare to go too far, and it was not what she should say when she got involved in the government, so she smiled and said: "Speaking of which, the Queen Mother knows why Sonny wants his house to be full of stone paths, and even the flower paths are made of stones of different colors." ”

Yu'er said with a smile: "This stone road, anyone who walks up, there will be movement, in the pre-Qin period, the princes and nobles used it to prevent thieves and eavesdropping." Nowadays, with slate floor tiles, they are greedy for good looks and smoothness, and would rather let people stand around like candles on duty, but give up such a good method. ”

"The Queen Mother is really omniscient, and the concubine is a trick." Madame Sonny gladly led the Queen Mother into the garden, and as soon as she entered, she heard laughter.

When Jia Yin learned that the Queen Mother had arrived, she immediately came to greet her, and said gently and generously: "The Queen Mother, the grandchildren of Lord Suo are very cute. ”

After that, she stepped forward to support the Queen Mother, and Yu'er did not refuse, between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it seems that there is rarely such intimacy, but this is outside, even if it is for people to see, it must be so.

But Yu'er has never been disgusted with Jiayin, and now Jiayin can learn the way to survive in the inner palace and know how to persuade and assist the emperor, it is too late for her to like it in her heart, and this time, Jiayin's attitude is firm and fair, which makes Yu'er even more impressed.

When they got closer, children of all sizes knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the Queen Mother.

Yu'er looked at them one by one with a smile, raised her eyes, but saw a little girl on the side with gauze wrapped in her head, a small appearance, only three or four years old, she couldn't see the child injured, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "What's wrong?" ”

The beautiful little girl, with a pair of round and bright eyes, looked curiously at the graceful and luxurious Queen Mother, who was so young that she soon hid timidly behind the nursing mother.

Mrs. Sonny said: "Queen Mother, this is the daughter of the eldest son of the concubine. ”

Her mother stepped forward to salute Yu'er and explained: "Back to the Queen Mother, this child was blindfolded and played hide and seek the day before yesterday, and hit his head on a tree, and I don't know how hard it took, and his head broke and bled out. The emperor lost his manners, please forgive the queen mother. ”

"Does it hurt?" Yu'er squatted down and said with a smile, "Did you cry?" How old are you? ”

"This is the Queen Mother, salute the Queen Mother." The eldest grandmother pulled her daughter and taught her, "Grandpa taught you how to salute, remember?" ”

The little girl was dragged out, and after nodding to her mother, she knelt down with a head of gauze, and said in a milky voice: "Slave Hesheri Shushu, knock on the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother is blessed with Jin'an." Back to the Queen Mother's words, the slave is four years old this year. ”

"It's on the same side as our third elder brother." Yu'er picked up the little doll, held her in her arms, looked at her face distressedly, and didn't know what kind of scars the gauze covered, and smiled gently, "Such a beautiful face, how bad it is to have scars in the future, be careful in the future, female dolls are expensive." ”

Shu Shu was a little scared, and after a few hums, she reached out to find her mother, and Yu'er let go.

"Your garden is too small, and there are so many children that you can't turn it around." Yu'er got up and said to Mrs. Sony, "Take the children into the palace another day, the palace is big, and they will play with it." ”

Mrs. Sonny humbly said: "These leather monkeys, the concubine really doesn't dare to take them into the palace. ”

These are all polite words, what Yu'er said, and Mrs. Sonny said too.

However, Yu'er really wanted to make the Forbidden City more lively, and when she walked with Jia Yin, she said: "After the cemetery of Huanghuashan is completed next month, bury the fourth elder brother, and after that, don't be sad." You cried your body to death, and the child can't come back, it's better to take care of your body, and the fourth elder brother may come to Eniang? ”

"Yes." Jia Yin meekly agreed.

"The Dragon Boat Festival in May, the palace is lively." Yu'er said, "Although I just said casually, I can't say it, whether I am in the palace or on the island, you and the queen will treat the daughters of these ministers well and make them happy, which will also be good for the emperor." The emperor has the hearts of the ministers, you have to help the emperor to win the hearts of these women, don't underestimate the wind on the pillow. ”

"Concubines remember." Jia Yin said, she paused, plucked up the courage and said, "Queen Mother, soon the spring flowers will bloom, and the plants and trees in Cining Palace will sprout, you can go back to the palace." ”

Yu'er smiled: "Nanyuan's spring color is beautiful, I still want to live for a while." ”

Jia Yin was very entangled, and she didn't know whether to persuade her more.

"My own mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, you don't have to say anything outside, you also understand, I'm not in the palace, and Fulin is very comfortable." Yu'er said, "Isn't it?" ”

Jiayin knelt down in a panic, and Yu'er ordered her to get up, saying that this was in the minister's house, and she should be generous and honorable.

"Queen Mother, the emperor is also very conflicted in his heart, please don't be angry." Jia Yin said.

"I'm glad you could say such things for Fulin." Yu'er smiled, "I'm afraid, you're always afraid of him, obey him, obey him without principle." Good boy, let go and take care of the affairs of the palace, Yuan Xi is a good helper, smart and clever, and has a good heart, you can't be wrong with her with you. In a few days, I will send the queen back, although it is a shame to explain you like this, but you take care of the queen more, and protect her in front of Fulin. ”

Jia Yin nodded again and again, and said, "After leaving Lord Suo's house for a while, the concubine and the emperor will send you back to the island." ”

Yu'er smiled: "No need, you go, what should the queen do, do you want to go with you, just let her stay for a few days." ”

At this time, Mrs. Sonny ushered in and said that the emperor was about to drive, and Yu'er said that she would no longer go to see Sony, and ordered Sonny to take good care of her body and return to the court as soon as possible.

Fu Lin and Jia Yin Gong sent their mother to the carriage, and Fu Lin also said that he would send Eniang back to Nanyuan, Yu'er smiled faintly: "The emperor should go back to the palace, the ministers are in a hurry." ”

"Eniang, son-in-law......"

"Take care." Yu'er didn't care about her son's explanation, and said gently, "The affairs of the court can never be done, and when the spring flowers bloom, go out for a walk, which can not only understand the people's feelings, but also broaden your mind." For so many years, I have been bored in the Qianqing Palace every day, and it is really hard for you. ”

Fu Lin simply agreed a few words, and then watched his mother's car drive away, only to hear Jia Yin say on the side: "Your Majesty, let's go back too, go home." ”

"Okay." Fu Lin's heart warmed, and he took Jia Yin's hand and said, "Go home." ”

In the Forbidden City, with the return of the emperor's carriage and horses, Yuan Xi soon knew that Sister Jiayin had brought people back, and then listened to Xiaoquanzi's inquiry, it turned out that they also went to Sonny Mansion, and even the Queen Mother went.

"I didn't bring the Queen Mother back." Yuan Xi sighed lightly and instructed Vanilla, "Prepare some snacks, my sister has been running around for a day, and she should be hungry." At this time, the emperor must go to Qianqing Palace, and we will wait for her on the way. ”
