"Sure enough, it's you, so I don't have to bother with anything." The queen sighed lightly, and after her smile faded, she couldn't help but show a little tiredness, in the end, she was in her thirties, younger than her son who was born and respected, and she was pregnant in October and gave birth, almost exhausting all her energy. Although the imperial physician said that he could recover his vitality in a few days, it was just a pleasing auspicious word, and the queen knew that there was nothing serious about her health, but it would take some time to recover her spirit before pregnancy.

She didn't want to worry about the affairs of the six palaces, but now she blindly threw it to Hongyan, she couldn't say anything, I heard Qianya say that after Hongyan was driven away last night, it was Concubine Yu who was here to support her, and she also did a good job, thinking about it at the moment, she invited Concubine Yu in, and instructed her to say to Hongyan: "Although it is inconvenient to tell outsiders, there is no need to hide it from you, my own body knows that it is not easy to recover the original spirit, and I really don't have the energy to take care of those things in the Sixth Palace at the moment." Concubine Yu has been with the Queen Mother for many years, and most of the things in the palace are well known, although Hongyan is young but very capable, in the future, the two of you will help each other, and I will hand over the affairs of the palace to you. ”

Hongyan and Concubine Yu looked at each other, the queen said this, how could Concubine Yu refuse again, and Hongyan was already carrying this burden, the queen gave birth to a concubine for her to be a complete merit, no longer have to worry about what she has to bear for the emperor, as for the matter of the six palaces, she did not think that the queen would carry it back by herself. Both of them agreed, and the queen wanted to recuperate, so she withdrew early, and Hongyan smiled at Concubine Yu: "I will work hard in the future, and the concubine can finally accompany the little princess more." ”

Concubine Yu is a little happy that she can assist in the affairs of the six palaces, although she does not expect Yongqi to have a future in the future, but in the study, the son depends on the mother, if Concubine Yu can have a certain status in the palace, those masters will not treat the fifth elder brother badly, Concubine Yu hopes that she can do something for her son, and now this is enough. As for the matter of the Sixth Palace, she knew that the queen just asked her to give Hongyan a hand, but the positions of the two were different, and some words were not easy to say clearly.

Concubine Yu smiled and said: "Don't think about being lazy, I will take care of the little princess for you these days, Fo'er and I are amiable, and I will often go to Pinghu Qiuyue to see the children." ”

Hongyan said: "Speaking of which, this time I have lived in the Old Summer Palace for so long, and now Concubine Jia is also going to give birth, and the queen mother is going to be recuperate, I am afraid that I will not return to the palace until autumn." ”

Concubine Yu glanced at the sky and the wide scenery in the garden, and said with a smile: "It would be good if you lived here all the time, there are rules and regulations in the Forbidden City, there are high walls on both sides of the road, and the wind on the long street makes people's backbones chill." Although there are many people in Qingyan in Kyushu, it is stronger than the Forbidden City, not to mention you, Pinghu Qiuyue is such a good place, the emperor gave you to live alone. ”

Hongyan bowed her head humbly and said: "If Niangniang also says so, the concubine really doesn't know what to do." ”

As he was talking, Wang Gui came in from outside the door, saying that the princes, the prince of the county, the Fujin of the Baylor Mansion, and the ladies of the third rank and above were all waiting outside the Old Summer Palace to meet the queen Daoxi, and Hongyan smiled at Concubine Yu: "Let's get rid of the things in front of the door first, and then think about whether it is better to live in the Old Summer Palace or the Forbidden City." ”

The two of them left the Changchun Immortal Pavilion to entertain those noble ladies, and said that there were two concubines in the palace, Concubine Yu was still a concubine, even though Hongyan was the head of the three concubines, there was still a big gap from the dignity of the concubine, but the two of them represented the queen in front of and behind the people, and the clear-eyed people knew the situation in the palace at a glance, and it was natural that the fifth elder brother under Concubine Yu's knees would also be looked down upon.

On the Queen Mother's side, I heard that the queen sent Concubine Yu and Concubine Ling to jointly assist in the Sixth Palace, and knew that her daughter-in-law was given her a step down, so she couldn't care about Wei Hongyan anymore. Thinking about it, there is indeed nothing wrong with the Wei family's busyness, it is one thing for her to be on guard, and she can't completely deny her hard work, and now that Concubine Yu has taken away her general power, the Queen Mother is more at ease.

When the emperor was busy with the ancestors of heaven and earth, and returned to the Old Summer Palace, it was past lunchtime, even though he was thinking about the queen and his son, he still came to ask the queen mother for peace first, and the queen mother also accompanied him for most of the night last night. When he came to see his mother, he was told by the Queen Mother: "You haven't closed your eyes all night, and you have to take care of yourself." ”

Hongli is full of energy, and getting his son-in-law again means a lot to him to the court, he cares about the queen so much, how can he not want his throne to be passed on to the son-in-law born to his wife, so it is also a precedent for Aixin Jueluo to succeed to the throne by his son-in-law.

Hongli said: "Yonglian's name is given by the first emperor, and it has the meaning of inheriting the throne. Poor Yonglian's life is thin, but now he has a prince, and his son wants to name the little brother Yongcong, and he has already thought about it before the queen gives birth, and he also hopes that he can inherit the clan and pass on the country to generations. ”

The Queen Mother squinted and smiled: "Your face is full of the word joy, you can see how happy you are." The name Yongcong is excellent, since you and the queen both like it, then it's set. It's just one thing, E-Niang wants to persuade you, you listen to it, if you are not happy, you will be treated as if E-Niang did not say it. ”

Hongli was slightly worried in his heart, thinking that his mother was going to target Hongyan again, but the Queen Mother said: "Not long after you ascended the throne, you secretly established Yonglian as the crown prince, although it is also the wish of the first emperor, but it can be sealed too early and the child is too young, even if it is a bit far-fetched to say these words now, but the little children still don't give them too much blessing to come well, anyway, you know in your heart that the position of the prince belongs to Yongcong, so wouldn't it be good?" If you can listen to Eniang's words, you are not in a hurry to establish a prince, since it is adhering to the rules of the first emperor's secret reserve, what does it matter if you are earlier or later. The emperor is in the prime of life, so he doesn't have to think so far. ”

"What E-Niang said is extremely true." The emperor also has an idea in his heart about this matter, he will stand up sooner or later, there is no need to rush for a while, Yonglian's death is a pain in everyone's hearts, of course he does not want the tragedy to happen again, and he promised his mother at this time, and the queen mother did not mention the matter of Hongyan again, Hongli secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and he would never take the initiative to mention it.

After leaving the Queen Mother, Hongli was anxious to see his wife and children, and at the same time he was worried about Hongyan, and learned that she and Concubine Yu were entertaining the Fujin women who came to congratulate him, so he asked Manager Wu to pass the word, asking her to rest more and take care of herself. And the emperor should have been able to enter the delivery room three days later, but it took a lot of effort to kick him out last night, how can he stop it today, the husband and wife meet, look at the delicate and lovely son, look at the tired and haggard wife, Hongli has long left those rules out of the clouds.

Hongyan's side, after sending the guests away, followed Concubine Yu to the study with Ruyin to pick up the fifth elder brother and Fu Ling'an, and then the two separated, the sisters led Fu Ling'an back to Pinghu Qiuyue, and sent Xiao Lingzi to Changchun Xianguan to investigate, if the emperor returned to Shaojingxuan, she and Ruyin would take Fu Ling'an to visit her aunt and little brother.

But on the way back to Pinghu Qiuyue, I unexpectedly met Xian Guifei, Xian Guifei was deliberately waiting for Concubine Ling on the side of the road, but I didn't expect Concubine Ling and Fucha Fujin to return together, Xian Guifei had to be regarded as a chance encounter, but this morning Hongyan felt that someone was looking at her behind her back, and then that feeling came out again, when the two separated, Hongyan asked Ruyin: "You look back, is Xian Guifei Niangniang looking at me?" ”

Ruyin hurriedly turned around, only to see Xian Guifei walking to another place, whether she was staring at Hongyan or not was not clear, but Ruyin just saw Xian Guifei, and tried to make it look like she was fine, now that they were separated, she couldn't help but feel a pound in her heart, but Hongyan was not doing much, but seeing Ruyin was very nervous, she couldn't help asking: "What's wrong?" ”

Ruyin shook her head, she had told Fu Heng that she couldn't tell Hongyan easily.

But I didn't expect that after returning to Pinghu Qiuyue and sending Cherry to lead Fu Ling'an to play, Hongyan closed the door and said to Ruyin: "I bumped into it today, I want to tell you, I said half of it last time, and then I didn't mention it again, and today I feel a little frizzy in my heart, so it's better to give you and Lord Fucha a reminder earlier." ”

Ruyin listened puzzled, when she heard Hongyan say that Xiao Lingzi bumped into Xian Guifei and her second sister-in-law talking like that in the woods, and heard that the second sister-in-law had begged Xian Guifei to let them live, she covered her mouth and was so shocked that she couldn't speak, Hongyan saw her reaction so violently, and asked uneasily: "Is it ...... There's really something. ”

Ruyin shook her head vigorously: "It's okay, nothing." ”

Seeing her like this, Hongyan didn't dare to ask any more questions, and said calmly: "I want you to remind the adults, I can't guess what can happen, but the second lady said such a serious thing, if it is involved, it will not be good for the queen mother or you, it is always good to be cautious." ”

Ruyin nodded blindly in agreement, and said with a red face: "But Xian Guifei Niangniang is not like a person who will come to things, Concubine Yu also told me today that she has been by the emperor's side for more than ten years, even if Emperor Huixian has been ill for a long time, and because she is sick because she is nagged by the Queen Mother, she will often be remembered, but Xian Guifei Niangniang has always been graceful and noble, but no one pays attention to her or not." Hongyan muttered to herself, "You said before that the second master was raising a little wife outside, could it be someone from Concubine Xian's mother's family?" ”

"Sister...... Actually, I don't know much about my brother's and sister-in-law's family. Ruyin reluctantly coped with it, got up and said, "But I will tell Fu Heng to let him pay attention, today, today I will go back first, it is more appropriate for the queen mother to go there in a few days, Fu Longan is a little unsteady today, I want to go home to see him earlier." ”

Of course, Hongyan would not stop her, and after caring for Fu Longan's body for a few words, she no longer kept her and sent her out in person.

Let's say that Ruyin left the Old Summer Palace and learned from the family that her husband went to the household department, handed over Fu Ling'an to the family to take back, and took the car to wait outside the household yamen.

It was the first time that there had been such a thing for many years after marriage, Fu Heng came out and heard that his wife was waiting for him, and he thought that something big had happened, and when the husband and wife met, Ruyin pulled him into the carriage and said anxiously: "Sister said, Concubine Xian seems to be eyeing her." ”
