Tana hurriedly persuaded: "Aunt Su Mala has come to take care of her, then it is equivalent to the meaning of the Queen Mother, master, you still have to wait, that Fujin can't be sick for the rest of his life, and he will come to see you sooner or later." ”

Meng Guqing suddenly had the spirit, sat up and glared at Tana angrily: "I can't get used to seeing the emperor have to endure everything, an emperor does something aggrieved, why should I follow the bag?" I'm a dignified palace master, and I can't see a lowly concubine? ”

"That's not what I said, Niangniang, but you have been looking at it for half a month, there is no voice of that one in the palace, she originally warmed the emperor's bed, and she got the prince only after her fate." Tana coaxed, "As soon as you came, everything was on track in the palace, what else was going on?" Do you say? ”

"You're just going to pick the nice ones and give me a good look." Meng Guqing was not convinced.

"Master, those things happened yesterday, so bear with it." Tana tried his best to persuade him, but he was afraid that he would not be able to stop him, "If that Fujin does not come to see you for the rest of his life, then he will not dare to see the emperor again for the rest of his life, otherwise he will not be able to stand up, and even the Queen Mother will not be able to explain to you, so we are here, don't you say?" ”

Meng Guqing shook his head: "If the eldest brother is still alive, she will not be like this, although it is her life, but what if it becomes my life?" The good life between me and the emperor will not last long, and someone will enter the palace soon, and it is my responsibility to persuade him to go and be good with other women. Tana, I'm not happy, I don't want to give the blessings to someone else, I like him. ”

Tana smiled: "The emperor also likes you, can't you see it?" ”

Meng Guqing smiled bitterly: "I can see that he likes me, but I also know what he likes about me?" There is a saying among the Han people, which is called "Ignorance", and when I become like that one day, he will not like me. That day, he said to me that in the future, I would become another Meng Guqing. ”

Tana doesn't know what it means to be out of the crowd, but Gege learns Manchu and Chinese, although there are many rumors about her in Beijing, but in order to become the queen of the Qing Dynasty, the prince has spent a lot of effort on Gege.

The only thing that is not controlled is her temperament, in the words of Gege's mother-in-law, she was born with a rebellious bone, and the official can't control it.

Meng Guqing sighed, walked barefoot on the floor tiles, Tana hurriedly put on her shoes, but Meng Guqing looked at the blue sky outside the window in a daze: "The sky in Beijing is really small." ”

In any case, this matter is persuaded to stop, wait for the queen to dress up neatly, and hurry to Cining Palace to ask for peace, the queen mother has already been in the Buddhist hall to worship the Buddha, it is Su Mala who came out and smiled: "Strange slave maid didn't come to greet you earlier." The queen mother said, it's cold, it's only right to sleep a little more in the morning, and in the future, you will be exempted from the rules of coming to Cining Palace in the morning to ask for peace. ”

Meng Guqing was overjoyed in her heart, but her eyes rolled, but she asked her: "Then in the future, when the concubines come to ask me for peace, can I also exempt them?" ”

Su Mala said: "Naturally, you have the final say." ”

She asked again: "How many people do you have to choose during the draft?" ”

Su Mala understood what the queen meant, she didn't dare to talk nonsense, the queen must be anxious if she said too much, and it was difficult to explain if she said less, so she had to shirk: "Niangniang, the slave maid is the same as you, is it the first time to experience it?" The slave and the maid did not understand anything. ”

Meng Guqing smiled: "It's not, it's the first time." ”

But after leaving Cining Palace, the young queen was still haunted and said to Tana: "It's the emperor's first time, and I cheapened that cheap maid." ”

Tana said softly: "The slave maid heard from others that this rule has long been in place, because she is afraid that the groom will not know how to hurt the bride on the wedding night, so before marrying the main wife, there are concubines who warm the bed to teach them." ”

"The bride doesn't understand, why don't you see the bride find a servant to warm the bed?" Meng Guqing was not convinced, and snorted coldly, "In the future, when my son grows up and marries a wife, I won't make such rules for him, I don't believe that if there is a little warm bed, can he still sleep in the cold?" ”

In the Buddhist hall of Cining Palace, Su Mala quietly entered the door, and after seeing Gege closing her eyes and recuperating, she smiled: "People who don't know, still think you are napping here." ”

Yu'er opened her eyes and said angrily: "I'm not as devout as my aunt, but I just want to be quiet and quiet, in this Buddha hall, no one dares to disturb, and the Buddha won't blame me." ”

"Gege, what you explained last time, the slave and maid have already ordered it to go down." Su Mala said, "Lord Aobai's niece and daughter will be screened out in the first round at that time, and you will make a decree to give some rewards, or to marry or marry separately, and it will be done." ”

Yu'er bowed: "Be careful, don't let Aobai be suspicious." ”

Su Mala said yes, remembering Queen Fangcai's words, and said with a smile: "Niangniang asked, how many should be selected in the draft, and the slave maid is perfunctory." ”

Yu'er frowned: "She asked so bluntly? ”

Su Mala soothed: "This is also human nature, Gege, the slave maid said something inappropriate, when were you young, when did you put the harem of the first emperor in your eyes?" You can't even tolerate the Queen Mother. It is not surprising that the queen mother is now reluctant to see the future harem. ”

Yu'er's heart trembled, she looked at Su Mala blankly, she almost forgot about it, and said with a wry smile: "I suddenly remembered yesterday that Huang Taiji used to tolerate me so much." I don't want to get up about this thing, I forgot it, I forgot that I was also young, Su Mala, how old am I this year? ”

Su Mala said distressedly: "It's okay to forget, even if you have unpleasant things, forget about it." ”

Yu'er asked, "You said Meng Guqing, is it like me?" ”

Su Mala thought for a while, nodded and said, "If the Queen Mother is here, if the Fourteenth Fujin is here, if Da Gege is also there, they may say, this child is like you." However, the slave maid felt that it was not like it, it was like a little skin, and it was completely different in her bones. ”

"Look at it slowly, I said that Meng Guqing is a piece of jade." Yu'er closed her eyes and said peacefully, "It's okay, she is my niece after all, just like Fulin said, there is at least one person who lives freely." ”

"Yes."

"But don't be too free, I used to be just a side Fujin, as long as I was pampered." Yu'er sighed, "She is the queen of the Qing Dynasty and the mother of a country." ”

On this day, Tong Tulai received a letter from Jiangnan in his house, E Shuo's wife and daughter had left for Beijing, and E Shuo had no time to send him off, and it was his step-Fujin who brought his daughter to participate in the draft at the end of October, and asked Tong Tulai to take care of it.

Tong Tulai estimated the days and wanted to send someone to pick it up, although the Eshuo family has a house in the capital, but it has been vacant for a long time, and the mother and daughter are both women, so naturally there is a good place to rely on, so Mrs. Tong sent someone to clean up the courtyard early to receive guests.
