In August of the fifth year of Kangxi, Fan Wencheng passed away due to illness, and Xuan Ye personally wrote a memorial document and sent officials to pay tribute.

But because Xuan Ye was not taught by Fan Wencheng since he was a child, his feelings were not deep, and above the court, the Manchu officials opposed the matter of burying Fan Wencheng, Xuan Ye had no special disgust, and he didn't want to cause trouble to the deceased, so he accepted it.

After the day was over, he wanted to wait for Shu Shu to go out of the palace to visit the Mid-Autumn Festival market in the capital, but the people who waited for a long time did not change out of the clothes.

Xuan Ye asked, "Not going?" ”

"Your Majesty, today is Mr. Fan's first seven." Shu Shu said, "Let's not go out to play, even if we don't do anything, it's better to stay in the palace." ”

Xuan Ye frowned slightly: "They only said today that they shouldn't give Fan Wencheng a big deal, I don't want Mr. Fan to be at peace after his death, I won't fight with them for this bit of nonsense, there will always be a chance to repay Mr. in the future, and Mr. will never blame me." ”

Shu Shu said: "What the emperor said, but what the concubine wants to say is not these things, the emperor, it is the mood of the emperor's grandmother." ”

"Imperial grandmother?"

"Mr. Fan was already by the emperor's grandmother's side when he was in Taizong." Shu Shu said, "Mr. Fan knows all the things about the imperial grandmother for decades, but like Mr. Fan, there are fewer and fewer people around the imperial grandmother, the old Fujin have passed away one after another, and the old ministers have left one by one. ”

Xuan Ye said: "Your grandfather is too, he is so sick that he can't accompany the imperial grandmother anymore." ”

Shu Shu bowed: "Your Majesty, today you go to accompany the imperial grandmother, don't leave the imperial grandmother alone, go to the market, we can go whenever we want." ”

Xuan Ye agreed, ordered Da Li Zi to withdraw the carriage and horses, and the guards, went straight back to the Qianqing Palace to change his clothes, and then went to Cining Palace.

Yu'er was alone in the study, sitting quietly behind the desk, Xuan Ye walked to the door of the eye, she woke up, and asked with a smile: "Scattered?" I heard Da Li Zi say, didn't I want to go to the market with Shu Shu today, why haven't I gone out yet? ”

"I'm not going to go today, Mr. Fan's first seven today, I'll accompany the emperor's grandmother." Xuan Ye said, "Accompany you to do something, what you want to do." ”

Yu'er said: "What else can the imperial grandmother want to do, you guys can play, be careful, I heard that those who oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty have come to the capital again." ”

Xuan Ye asked his grandmother: "Do you want to send Mr. Fan to him and put a stick of incense in front of his spirit." ”

Yu'er shook her head: "It's not a system, some old princes in the clan are gone, and I just sent someone to incense and incense a Hanchen, so that people will know, and it will be another turmoil." ”

Xuan Ye said: "Let's go quietly and don't let anyone know." ”

Yu'er refused: "Either you go to pay respects in a dignified manner, what is it to be secret, he deserves his contribution to the Qing Dynasty and the imperial grandmother." ”

Xuan Ye no longer insisted, and helped the emperor's grandmother away from the desk, and it was more comfortable to crook under the window, and the grandmother's gray hair has grown violently recently, and she is getting older day by day.

Yu'er said: "The imperial grandmother is uncomfortable, the people who followed me in this life are gone, even the brother I once hated is gone, in the end, grievances and hatreds are all empty." ”

"From the moment people are born, they are destined to leave one day." Xuan Ye said, "Although more and more people are leaving you, there are also more people coming to you, grandson, Shu Shu too, imperial grandmother, you must look away." ”

"Xuan Ye, now that I think of your mother, will you cry secretly alone?" Yu'er asked.

"Yes, I cried in front of Shu Shu. However, the sadness in my heart became lighter and fainter, and the sadness turned into thoughts, which were engraved in my heart. Xuan Ye said, "Imperial grandmother, I won't tell you anything, my grandson thinks it...... I'm used to it. ”

Yu'er hugged Xuan Ye, the grandfather and grandson sat snuggling, she stroked the back of her grandson's hand, and said with emotion: "The aunt and grandmother you haven't met are the first people to leave the imperial grandmother's side, and the imperial grandmother was grief-stricken at that time, thinking that this life was over." But then I soon found out that people's sadness would fade away, half a year later, a year later, and even longer, even tears could not be squeezed out. ”

Xuan Ye said: "Imperial grandmother, you are also used to it, right? ”

Yu'er bowed: "This is a good thing." To live, you should live well. ”

Xuan Ye said: "Your grandson will always be by your side, forever." ”

Yu'er said with a smile: "Xuan Ye, did the imperial grandmother say that you don't make promises lightly to be an emperor?" Not to mention the big empty words of a lifetime, if you talk too much, it is not uncommon. ”

Xuan Ye said: "Shu Shu is the same as you said, she doesn't love what her grandson promises her, she is always serious." ”

He said to himself that he was disgusted, but if he liked it in his heart, he soon noticed that the imperial grandmother was not moving, and when he looked at his grandmother again, he saw her staring at him with a smile.

"Grandson said something wrong?" Xuan Ye was slightly embarrassed, "Imperial grandmother ......"

"Now that you come to Cining Palace to chat with the imperial grandmother, in three or five sentences, you will inevitably bring Shu Shu." Yu'er said, "Xuan Ye, Shu Shu has a great influence on you, and the imperial grandmother can't say, whether this is good or bad." ”

Xuan Ye said: "The grandson will separate the government from the feelings, and what the emperor Ama has done, the grandson will never do it again." The grandson likes Shu Shu because Shu Shu is good. ”

Yu'er sighed: "Yes, I shouldn't worry too much, you are different from your Amma, even Dong E's is a special case." ”

Xuan Ye pursed his lips, and the words he wanted to say lingered on his lips, and his face gradually turned red.

"What's wrong, uncomfortable?" Yu'er reached out and stroked her grandson's forehead, which was slightly hot, making her very worried.

"No...... Imperial grandmother. Xuan Ye got up, took two steps back, clenched his hands into fists, half-hung his head, his chest heaving and panting nervously.

"Xuan Ye?"

"Imperial grandmother, grandson...... When can you ...... it" Xuan Ye held back for a long time, but he was still deflated, and he couldn't say it.

But Yu'er understands, what else hasn't the old grandmother experienced, the little hairy child has grown up, hasn't it?

She covered her mouth and smiled, then got serious, cleared her throat and said: "Ma Jia's and Dong's ages are also ordinary people's mothers, but Shushu is still young, and she is also small. Xuan Ye, since the imperial grandmother has arranged for the palace maid to be in the bed for you, those things will naturally be let go. They are your wives and concubines, and it is up to you to love and cherish them. ”

"Yes......" Xuan Ye was sweating, peeked at his grandmother, and stammered quietly, "I'm worried about you, Imperial Grandmother...... Don't laugh at your grandchildren. ”

"How can I laugh at you, but I am very pleased, speaking of which, the imperial grandmother has never been jealous of your Amma's harem." Yu'er said guiltily, "But a while ago, seeing that you and Shu Shu were inseparable, and there were some things you discussed with each other, and you no longer came to ask me, I was very disappointed." ”

"There's nothing I can't discuss with you, it's just ......" Xuan Ye knelt down on one knee in front of his grandmother, but he couldn't say any more.

He knew that there were more than one or two things to hide from his grandmother now, and he said to Shu Shu that if he could hide it from his grandmother, he could try to deceive the ministers.

"Silly boy." Yu'er stretched out her hand to block Xuan Ye's mouth, "The imperial grandmother will never be unhappy for Shu Shu, and if she asks for a good granddaughter-in-law like Shu Shu, it must be your mother who is blessed by heaven, and it is too late for me to hurt." ”

Xuan Ye got up and sat back beside her grandmother, just as Su Mala came, she didn't know that the grandfather and grandson were talking about the queen, so she just said: "Master, Concubine Zhao has arrived, will you see you here?" ”

"What's the matter with her?" Xuan Ye asked first, "Doesn't she know that I'm here?" ”

"I must have known you were here." Yu'er said, "Let's greet each other with a smile for a while, you don't like Ao Bai and Ji Bilong, the imperial grandmother understands, but she has been in the palace for so long, and she is also a peaceful child." ”

"The Taiping child who talks about the palace casually?" Xuan Ye's disgust was beyond words, "If she has half of the queen, her grandson will not be so disgusted with her." ”

This is no longer dislike, but hate, Yu'er was faintly uneasy in her heart, and persuaded fairly: "But you never stopped her, let her do it, because you have your purpose." Lingzhao is not only a pawn of Ao Bai and Kupilon, but also a pawn of yours, isn't it? ”

Xuan Ye was speechless for a while.

Yu'er said: "She is just a harem concubine, and the imperial grandmother is not rare, and she will not be afraid of Aobai and Curb Bilong." But in the future, there will be concubines like Ling Zhao in the harem, Xuan Ye, you should learn how to deal with it, not just use or hate, then sooner or later you will fall into the hands of others. You see, what you have just promised is empty talk. ”

Xuan Ye's heart trembled, he remembered, he said that he was their heaven.
