"If the emperor wants to reproach you, how can I come to ask you at this moment, he is heartbroken." Lan Qi sighed lightly and motioned for his son to get up, "He was so happy that he thought that the prince had really grown, but it turned out to be a lie, how can he trust you." ”

Yin Zhen slowly stood up, lowered his head and said: "The prince is very attentive, but he said that he can't satisfy Huang Ama by what he does, he has been like this since he was a child, and he couldn't stand it when he was a child, so he ......" At this point, he didn't say anything in the end, and it was not interesting to mention the past.

Lan Qi said: "E-Niang sees you like this, I really don't know what to say, can't you brothers get along well?" ”

Yin Zhen shook his head: "I don't know." ”

"What are you going to do in the future?"

"I'm afraid there's no way." Yin Zhen raised her eyes to look at her mother and smiled helplessly, "Huang Ama's affection for you is the root of all this, can you understand Eniang?" But the son doesn't blame you or Huang Ama, I just want to say, this is the fate of our mother and son, I am blessed to be the son of Ama and Eniang, I must have the courage to take on all this, no matter where we go in the future, my son does not want to be ashamed of his background, nor can he embarrass Huang Eniang. ”

Lan Qi's mind froze for a moment, and she suddenly remembered that on that snowy day, Tong Guowei stopped halfway to talk to her, saying that she should restrain more light and not burden the fourth elder brother. At this moment, the son said to himself that the affection between her and Xuan Ye caused all this, there is no doubt that in the eyes of those brothers, their biological mother's unhappiness is the biggest reason why they are not favored, and he and his children have never lacked favor and care.

"E-Niang, don't think about it, I was relieved after I figured it out myself, it was them who didn't like it, I shouldn't be angry for them." Yinzhen's eyes were calm and resolute, and he solemnly said to his mother, "If you want them to shut up and retreat in the face of difficulties, only I can do better." ”

Lan Qi bowed his head and said: "Remember to leave room for everything, don't turn around and be bound by yourself." Something similar to helping the prince this time, E-Niang doesn't want you to do it again, but I don't care what you really want to do, but don't go against your conscience, when someone questions you like this in the future, you can continue to straighten your waist and answer. ”

Yinzhen: "My son remembers." ”

Lan Qi sighed again: "This matter makes your emperor Ama very cold, you find an opportunity to confess your guilt, I'm afraid that's the case on the prince's side, but since your emperor Ama will tell me, I must think that at least you can give him an explanation." ”

Yin Zhen was a little embarrassed on his face, and reluctantly agreed.

Soon after, the thirteenth and fourteenth came back from a walk around the palaces, and the ladies of the palaces brought them things, and the fourteenth elder brother sat down to drink tea with a big grin, and said impatiently: "The ladies still treat us as children, enjoy some food and play, I can't laugh, when can we be treated as adults." ”

Lan Qi blamed others for being a big ghost, and he shouldn't have said such things to disappoint the hearts of the girls, saying that he wanted to ask Yinxiang how he was doing, and turned his eyes, but the child was talking to his fourth brother with all his heart, and the size of the brothers was getting closer and closer, and I am afraid that Yinxiang would be able to surpass his brother in two years. Since Concubine Min is gone, the child's mental and physical growth is advancing rapidly, every other day, Lan Qi will have a strange feeling of Yinxiang, she does love Yinxiang as her own son, but somehow returned to the state of mind when she first raised the child, as if someone was always reminding her that this is not her own flesh and blood.

At this time, it was reported that Bafujin asked to see, and today Brother and Fujin are in the palace, and it is very common to come to greet him, but although it is a family, it is inevitable that there will be embarrassment between uncles and sisters-in-law, and Yuxi is not in front of him, so it is a little inconvenient for Yinzhen to be on the side. I happened to hear Bafujin say: "Yinxi was going to come with the concubine to ask the mother for peace, but the emperor Ama suddenly asked him to go to the Qianqing Palace to speak, so the concubine came alone, and asked the mother not to blame the eighth brother for being rude." ”

Yinyu heard that the starling brother was coming, and immediately told his mother that he was going to find the eighth brother, Lan Qi thought that he had just asked his son to ask Xuan Ye to ask for guilt, so he casually ordered him to lead the two younger brothers over together, and his eyes signaled his son to find an opportunity to make it clear to his father, and he just told that there were noble ministers in the palace today, don't let the fourteen reckless and rude people in front of people. Although Yinyu didn't want to be controlled by the fourth brother, he still obediently followed.

In this way, Concubine De and Bafujin were left, but they were deserted, Lan Qi smiled and said: "Your four sisters-in-law are all in Jingyang Palace, you can also go over to join in the fun in a while, Concubine Rong doesn't know what new things she can get, and the concubines and sisters are all there." ”

Bafujin agreed, but seeing his eyes flickering, he quietly looked around, as if there was a rare opportunity for no one else to be there, and finally his eyes were certain, and he bowed his knees slightly and said: "Concubine De Niangniang, the concubine has something to tell you, and I have been thinking about it for a while." ”

Lan Qi laughed in her heart, how did she become everyone's "mother-in-law" now, the crown princess came to her to say what was in her heart, and the eighth elder brother Fujin also came at this time, the crown princess did not have a mother-in-law, what kind of idea did Bafujin have?

Seeing Concubine De's gentle smile, Bafujin made up his mind and continued: "The concubine is a daughter-in-law, she shouldn't interfere in the affairs of the palace, it's really unruly, but the good concubine is the eighth elder brother's mother-in-law, and the eighth elder brother is uncomfortable, and the concubine is also uncomfortable. Niangniang, do you know that although the good concubine Niangniang has been promoted to the concubine position, she is the master of Yanxi Palace, although it is her own mind to still live in the matching hall, but the monthly sub-rules given by the Internal Affairs Office are still the grade of nobles, although she is not unable to spend, but the palace people are so disrespectful, and the eighth elder brother has always been uncomfortable. ”

Lan Qi was very surprised, and asked rhetorically, "Until now, it is still given according to the grade of the nobleman?" ”

Bafujin bowed his head timidly: "Xianghe, the palace maid next to Eniang, told the concubine that she was afraid that she couldn't make a mistake, she went to the Internal Affairs Office to mention it, they were perfunctory and dragged on, and Eniang didn't let Xianghe publicize, and it hasn't changed until now." ”

All this is under the jurisdiction of Lan Qi, and the palace allocates a fairness, that is, the emperor has something good for them to share, and he will never favor anyone, and now that such a thing has happened, it has been delayed for more than half a year, and she wants someone's daughter-in-law to seek justice from her, which is tantamount to slapping her in the face. Thinking about the fake utensils that I got a while ago, I was so angry that Concubine Rong fell in front of her, and the people in the Internal Affairs Office are not easy to deal with these days.

Lan Qi calmed down and instructed Bafujin: "You go back to Yanxi Palace again, and tell the good concubine that she has been wronged." I will deal with it properly here, and if she is missing, she will make up for it in time, and it will not be shorter in the future. ”

Bafujin bowed to the ground and thanked Concubine De for his mother-in-law, but listened to Concubine De's instructions: "Your mother is too careful, I get along with her like a sister, but I hide it from me, are you afraid that I won't be able to hang on my face and don't want to cause me trouble, or is I already resentful of me in my heart?" ”

Bafujin hurriedly said: "It must be because you don't want to cause trouble to Niangniang, you are so busy here, you may occasionally want to speak, but you have not been looking for an opportunity." The concubine is thick-skinned, so she dares to come to you recklessly, presumably she has to blame the concubine for being too talkative. But it's not a way to drag on this matter, maybe you will have a grudge in the future, it's obviously the fault of the minions underneath, why bother letting the two of you misunderstand each other. ”

Lan Qi left her seat and helped Bafujin up, and said with relief in her eyes: "No wonder the Queen Mother always talks about you being virtuous, you are really a good child, a good concubine is introverted and silent, and she will not say anything if she is wronged, I am always busy with the affairs of the six palaces here, and you will pay more attention in the future, and tell me if you have anything." ”

Everyone is saying polite words, Bafujin doesn't understand, she is not reckless when she comes today, she only opens her mouth after weighing it again and again on a good day, the people who have pearls in the internal affairs mansion are the people who have Concubine Hui and the eldest brother, it may not be that they are deliberately mean and good concubines, if the eighth elder brother is too radical, it will appear disrespectful to them.

Now that the eldest brother's errand has been robbed by the prince, I don't know when I can get better at home, their arrogance has been much more restrained, she feels that she missed this time, and she doesn't know how to open her mouth next time.

Lan Qi couldn't guess what the little woman was thinking, but she estimated Juechan's attitude, she must have deliberately dragged it out and didn't report it, originally she didn't want to take care of her own business, but this matter was somewhat related to herself, and she secretly decided to make it clear to her in the future, in the face of the Beatitude Jin, she was naturally polite and kind.

On this side, the fourth elder brother took his younger brothers to the Qianqing Palace, and it happened that the eighth elder brother came out on an errand, he was about to go out of the palace to do errands, and Yinzhen was pestered to go together, and the opportunities to enter and leave the palace after living in the elder brother's house became frequent, and Yinzhen was not easy to stop, seeing that Yinzhen was willing, he let their brothers go.

The thirteenth elder brother asked his brother if he wanted to read the article he had done, Yinzhen glanced at the Qianqing Palace, and said to him: "The fourth brother has something to tell Huang Ama, you go in with me, and then wait outside the study, let me talk to Huang Ama alone for a while, okay?" ”

Yinxiang immediately agreed, and didn't ask why, followed his brother into the door of the Qianqing Palace, and then waited outside the door alone, Liang Gonggong is a very shrewd person, look at this posture, and he will not ask more.

And Yinzhen entered the study, didn't see his father sitting in front of the desk, looked around a few times, and shouted softly, "Huang Ama", only to see his father flash out from behind the bookshelf, with a pair of Western glasses on the bridge of his nose, took it off and frowned at him, and said lukewarmly: "Are you here?" ”

When he arrived at the door, Yinzhen was still nervous in the end, and bent his heart sideways and said: "Huang Ama, my son came to ask for sin." ”

Xuan Ye took two books, slowly paced out, stood up at him with his hands in his hands, and asked in a cold voice, "Do you dare to work four Baylors to ask for guilt?" ”

Yin Zhen even said that he was not, but his father asked him: "I made it clear to your mother." ”

"Yes."

"She asked you to plead guilty?"

Yin Zhen was sweating profusely and stammered slightly: "Erchen himself has to come to ask for guilt, and Eniang is also ......."

"Lies." The emperor snorted coldly, bluffing his son all over, but he didn't have a seizure, but turned out two folds and threw them at him, and ordered, "I will listen to your mother's explanation of that matter, if it is wrong, it is wrong, and it is useless to say more." This is an excerpt sent by Shanxi, impeaching the governor for corruption, and within three days to investigate his relationship with the officials in Beijing, and report to me that you will do your best to find out, but if something goes wrong and people find out, I will not clean up the mess for you. ”
