Hongyan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

The queen smiled sadly: "You also saw it that night, because Concubine Ying took away the emperor, he came to pester me, this is not the first time that such a thing has happened." From the Old Summer Palace to the Forbidden City, from the Forbidden City to here, the ghost haunts me. I hope I can cheer up my spirit to correct the name of the middle palace and not let you suppress me anymore. ”

Hongyan's heart jumped suddenly, and Yongxuan had already arrived, he saw that Hongyan was obviously disgusted here, and after reluctantly saluting, he spoke: "Huang Ama and the imperial grandmother's boat is in front, Huang Eniang, my boat is docked below, you and your sons go together to ask the imperial grandmother for an encore?" ”

The queen's gaze hesitated slightly, and the twelfth elder brother took a step towards her, if it was usually behind the people, Yongxuan would directly start to entangle, but there were many people here, and other children also poured out, and the queen didn't want to disturb innocent people, so she could only respond today: "Okay, I'll go with you." She thought that Hongyan could avoid it for a while here, and she didn't want her son to coerce her more easily.

"Where the emperor goes, I will go too." Ke'er is very close to the queen, and she is not as sensitive and sensible as Xiao Qi, so she ran to the queen's side delicately, but she didn't expect the twelfth elder brother to scold her immediately, "Who are you calling the emperor's mother, your mother-in-law is over there." ”

Ke'er was frightened, Xiao Qi immediately stepped forward to take his sister away, the adults were shocked by the appearance of the twelfth elder brother, the queen had nothing to say, stepped forward and pushed her son to take the initiative to go to the boat in front of him, the palace maid eunuchs and guards came in clusters, and it didn't take long for the group of people to disappear in the stern.

Concubine Qing hugged Ke'er and coaxed her, making her happy, and sat in a daze where the queen was sitting, fortunately, in order to be able to cruise freely, she did not let the female relatives of the local officials accompany her, otherwise the joke would have been big, and Concubine Shu also sighed: "Why is the twelfth elder brother rushing so much, I am scared to death." ”

Hongyan looked up and asked, "Where is Ruyin's ship?" ”

Concubine Shu said: "You don't remember, Fu Chang'an has an uncomfortable stomach, she is at home." Why, if there is anything that cannot be said to me, only to her. ”

Hongyan smiled helplessly: "I really can't say it to my sister, I can't bear to be happy, and I'm annoyed inexplicably." ”

Concubine Shu sighed, turned around, and saw Concubine Yu in a daze on the side, she neither went to comfort the child, nor did she come to talk to Hongyan, but everything that happened just now should have been seen and heard. Concubine Shu gently tugged at Hongyan, and snorted towards Concubine Yu, and Hongyan also glanced at it, and her heart was clear.

After the queen went to the imperial boat, she never came back, and tonight's incident, Concubine Yu told Yongqi on the way back, and said curiously: "It seems that the relationship between the queen and the twelfth elder brother is very delicate, didn't you make a big noise in the middle of the night when you first arrived in Hangzhou?" It can be seen that the first time in the palace was not a mess, but the mother and son were not harmonious. ”

The matter of Shao Jingxuan's fire, the matter of the twelfth elder brother pushing the sixteenth into the water, and how much her son was involved in it, Concubine Yu didn't know, so in her opinion, the contradiction between the mother and son in the middle palace was good news, and it was also helpful for her son's future. even said: "The twelfth elder brother is so troublesome, the future must be ruined, don't tell the emperor to send the child out if the weather is in a hurry." ”

Yongqi also has calculations in his heart, and he can't say a lot of things to his mother, so he just said: "It's good for Eniang to stay out of the matter, my son is afraid that you will suffer in the palace, and I can deal with other things." ”

Concubine Yu said with a smile: "It's been more than 30 years since I married your emperor Amma, what haven't I experienced in Eniang, and I am in the same mood as you, I am afraid that you will suffer in the court." She sighed softly and muttered, "It's not necessarily a good thing for you to let Niangniang go down with the queen like this, the twelfth elder brother looked at her eyes, and couldn't wait to eat her, how can you hate her so deeply, little child?" ”

"The noble concubine Niangniang is a big move, Yongxuan must hate her for crossing the queen everywhere." Yongqi smiled bitterly, "E-niang, have you forgotten, I was unwilling at the beginning, whether it was a concubine or a concubine, it was not as good as you every time." Even if her son is angry, Huang Ama will give her everything good, and now she will give everything good to her and her son. ”

"Yongqi, you are already a prince, the most dazzling prince today, your emperor Ama is old, and he may not be able to wait for them to grow up." When Concubine Yu said this, she hurriedly covered her mouth, secretly recited the Buddha a few times, and said, "Let's both calm down and don't show it." ”

"E-Niang, don't worry, I know, this matter is still far away." Yongqi responded, and was about to withdraw, the weaving mansion is not big, and he, an adult prince, is really not suitable to come to the inner courtyard, at this time, Bai Li listened to the rumors outside, saying that the emperor went to the queen's house tonight.

Concubine Yu muttered: "I don't know what they will say, speaking of which, the emperor and the queen have never blushed." ”

And as Concubine Yu said, whether it is the side Fujin of the former palace, or the later Concubine Xian and the current queen, the emperor has respected him for decades. Respect each other is like four words, what a beautiful word, but if you think about it deeply, how can there be a husband and wife who don't quarrel or quarrel, if they really have deep feelings, they should never be like the current emperor and queen, think about how many times Queen Fucha and the emperor turned their faces. Although quarreling is by no means a good thing, it is not normal for the emperor and empress to be like this, there are clearly many contradictions in the middle, and they can be so harmonious and peaceful.

It was late at night, Hongli had been lying down after washing, he had loved to play in the mountains and rivers for many years, and he would never be uncomfortable with living in a strange place, he was quite tired from traveling to the West Lake at night, and he was already a little sleepy, but when he thought of the recent affairs of the twelfth elder brother, he had to cheer up and ask the queen: "Yongxuan is fine, what's wrong with him this time?" ”

The queen was holding the candlestick, blowing out a few candles elsewhere, her heart trembled, and the hot wax oil dripped on her hand, but fortunately, the pain passed for a while, and she settled down and said to the emperor: "I heard that when boys reach this age, they will have a few years of special backbone, refuse to be obedient and refuse to study, and feel that they are very good and can go to the adventure." Compared with the concubines, the emperor probably understands better. ”

Hongli said with a smile: "When I was so old in Yongxuan, Kangxi had just died, and the first emperor and the new monarch succeeded to the throne, and the court was so nervous all day long that people couldn't breathe, either this prince was demoted to a commoner, or that Baylor was sent to the frontier, I just had the courage to fight back at that time." The emperor and the mother were very tightly controlled, and it was not until I later lived in the brother's house that I was a little freer, and I couldn't see my mother there, but I missed it a little more. Hongli thought for a while and said, "Look, it's better to let Yongxuan go to live with Brother, Eleven has already gone very well, and he often goes to accompany Concubine Shu on this southern tour, maybe Yongxuan's temperament will also get better." ”

The queen smiled slightly: "Then after the emperor, will he discipline him more?" ”

Hongli said: "It's my negligence, you have always been peaceful, I am 100,000 at ease with you, even with children I think so, forgetting that boys are not easy to teach, and you have lost Huarong, these days it is really difficult for you." ”

"Thank you for the emperor's compassion, but also the concubines are incompetent, I hope that the emperor can also teach and tolerate Yongxuan a little more in the future, and the concubines are afraid that they will be powerless." The queen said this, and made a big salute to Hongli on the couch, "Your Majesty, the concubine is grateful for Yongxi." ”

Hongli said: "Why do you and I have to say thanks, for so many years, I have to thank you a lot." ”

Looking at the demure and peaceful people in front of him, thinking that she had been silently by her side for decades, not fighting or grabbing, not causing trouble to herself, on the contrary, she did treat her too much, and it was inevitable that she felt a little guilty and distressed, so she said: "Today, I served the emperor's mother on a night tour of the West Lake, and I took care of my mother throughout the whole process, and I didn't take a good look at it." The place also spent a lot of effort to build everything, and it was a waste of a brilliant night, and I was going to go alone tomorrow, but I wanted to go with the queen at the moment. Tomorrow I will go to the suburbs with my ministers during the day, and if you don't return in time at night, someone will welcome you to the lake to board the boat, and if you wait a while, I will be here soon. ”

The queen was not surprised or pleased, accepted it very calmly, thanked her, and said nothing more.

The night was spent peacefully, the next day the emperor went out with breakfast, the queen and the concubines went to the queen mother to ask for peace, the ladies in the house prepared all kinds of fun for the mothers, the queen did not like this lively, so she went back to the room alone to rest. And as she expected, as soon as she was alone, her son came to her.

Last night, my father had sex with my mother for a long time, and the twelfth elder brother was happy in his heart, and when he heard that Huang Ama was going to take his mother on a cruise tonight, he was even more excited, and proved that his words were justified, and said; "E-Niang, you see, as long as you take the initiative a little bit, Huang Ama will not care about you."

But the queen just smiled slightly, and said the most: "Yongxuan, in the future, you must listen to the words of Huang Ama and study hard." ”

The twelfth elder brother was tired of listening to such ordinary instructions, but he was happy today, and he also knew that his mother did not want to be entangled by himself, so he left with interest. The queen was finally at peace, and after resting for a long time, she got up and dressed up.

The palace maids only thought that they were preparing for the night cruise, and they didn't feel anything wrong. At night, the emperor really didn't have time to come back, and someone came to welcome the queen to the lake to board the boat, but the queen suddenly ordered her palace people: "Please let the concubine go with you, this is the emperor's will." ”

The queen said that it was the emperor's will, and invited the most favored concubine, everyone did not feel suspicious, and naturally invited Hongyan, Hongyan felt strange, but Hongli was not in the house and didn't know who to ask, and when she came to see the queen, the queen still smiled: "The emperor said that there are rumors that we are not harmonious, and he wants to take us with him, so that people can see, you don't care." ”

"It should be what the concubine said, how can the concubine be comparable to the mother." Hongyan said, "The concubines don't want to go together, the emperor is there, and the concubines will explain afterwards." ”

The queen smiled: "What's the big deal, in fact, I also want you to accompany me." ”
