The queen really didn't care about whether to choose a quota for Dongguo, so she only said a few perfunctory words.

Not long after, the crowd dispersed, and the queen had just breathed a sigh of relief, when a message came from the Qianqing Palace, telling her to be afraid.

Fortunately, Fulin only said a few polite words, saying that the queen was working hard to serve the queen mother on the island, and asked her to rest well.

But the queen will not be flattered for a few words, she wishes that the emperor would never think of her, and it is enough for each other to be safe in Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace.

"As soon as I came, I felt a pain in my heart." The queen said, "How good it is in Nanyuan, the sea and the sky." ”

Gao Wa gave the master an idea: "The eldest princess is here, it's not easy to deal with, wait for the eldest princess to return to Horqin, let's go with Concubine Tong Niangniang." ”

The queen smiled bitterly: "At that time, the queen mother's illness must have been cured, how could she have been on the island, the queen mother is not here, why should I go?" ”

"This is also ......" Gao Wa sighed, and then persuaded the queen, "Niangniang, don't worry, the emperor is going well now, and he won't trouble you." ”

The queen was uneasy: "I hope so." ”

In Jingren Palace, Pomegranate still hasn't come back, it's still on the island, and in two days, she will go back to her original residence with Su Mala and Xuan Ye, and leave Pomegranate by Xuan Ye's side, so that Yuan Xi can rest assured, but she is in the palace, and she is destined to have a little helper.

"Niangniang, the melons and fruits sent by the emperor." Vanilla asked in front of the door, "Do you want to eat it now?" ”

"Divide it." Yuan Xi said, "Today's carriage was bumpy, and I was dizzy. ”

Vanilla hurriedly asked, "Do you want to declare the imperial doctor?" ”

Yuan Xi said: "No need, I'll rely on it for a while, don't call someone to see me, no one can." ”

In this way, when Jia Yin withdrew from Kunning Palace and turned to see Yuan Xi, she saw Vanilla kneeling in front of the door and said that her master was tired and tired, and she didn't want to meet guests for the time being.

Jia Yin asked worriedly: "If there is anything uncomfortable, don't hide it, declare the imperial doctor early, and you will naturally feel comfortable after taking the medicine." Please rest my sister, I'll come back tomorrow to see her. ”

Vanilla replied respectfully: "Naturally, my mother went to Chengqian Palace to visit the imperial concubine Niangniang. ”

Jia Yin told a few words, ordered them to take care of Yuan Xi, and left, waiting for Vanilla to come back to tell her, and asked her worriedly if she shouldn't stop the imperial concubine.

Yuan Xi said lazily: "Well done, I'm very tired, I really don't want to see anyone, even the emperor." ”

Naturally, she also knew that Fu Lin would not come.

Yuan Xi just wanted to give herself some time to think about what she should do to pass the time when the Queen Mother was not in the palace.

In the next few days, I am afraid that before the beginning of spring, the Queen Mother and Xuan Ye are not in the palace, and Yuan Xi has a lot of time for himself, but he doesn't know what to do with it.

When leaving the island, Yuan Xi said to Pomegranate, saying how she should pass the time after she went back, Pomegranate said: "But most of the people in the palace are living such a day, we were earlier, isn't it good?" ”

Isn't it? Yuan Xi smiled bitterly, why should she be hypocritical.

So he got up and went out, stood under the eaves and relaxed his muscles, looked at the sky and said to himself: "This day is going to make a heavy snowfall." ”

At this moment, in the Yikun Palace, Concubine Ning was holding a clean and neat charcoal, flipping it in her hand to see, this is the silver bone charcoal used in the house of the legendary emperor and the queen mother, I didn't expect that in her life, there would be a day when it could be used.

"Keep it for Fu Quan, it's not much." Concubine Ning instructed the palace maid, "Don't say anything when you go out, it's just a little filial piety on the part of the people who cherish the salary." ”

At the moment, everything is good in Yikun Palace, the eunuchs and palace maids follow the master to eat and drink spicy food, who will toss their blessings, naturally what Ning Concubine says, what do they do. The whole family is united, looking forward to the second elder brother if he inherits the unification in the future, and their group of people will follow the chicken dog to heaven.

And Ning Concubine tasted the taste of money, she couldn't stop anymore, it was difficult to go from luxury to frugality, even if it was for the sake of happiness, she didn't want to live the tight days before, no matter what, she must make her son decent everywhere.

But Yikun Palace is getting richer and richer, Concubine Ning has no favor and no reward, and her mother's family has not seen anything great, where does her full of jewels come from, and it is rare to arouse suspicion.

In Chuxiu Palace, they have discussed it several times, and Concubine Chen's palace maid quietly told her that she saw the servants of the Salary Saving Division and secretly sent silver bone charcoal to Yikun Palace.

"She's capable, what's like me, stupid." The woman who was still in confinement slowly ate the snack in her hand and said, "You still have to keep an eye on it, although we don't cause trouble, we must not ask someone to come to the door." ”

"In a few days, the newcomer will enter the palace, do you say that the emperor will seal the six palaces, there is no news at all." The palace maid asked, "You are the first lady to be crowned, the emperor should look at it differently." ”

Concubine Chen laughed at her own people, this coaxing words were too fake, when did she be looked at differently.

While getting up and walking to the edge of the cradle, he looked at his son and sighed: "Look, the name of the fourth elder brother has not come down, and the name of our fifth elder brother can't come down, so we can't let the younger brother get ahead of the elder brother." ”

"The name of the third elder brother, but the queen mother gave it on the same day." Her palace maid said, "We are going to line up behind the fourth elder brother, but the name of the fourth elder brother, how long is this going to be delayed." ”

Concubine Chen said: "The fourth elder brother did not celebrate the full moon, and the emperor of the 100-day banquet must not agree to be perfunctory, I counted the days, and it happened to be the first month." The first month of the year is a day of eating and drinking, and the emperor wants to hold a banquet to celebrate, and no one can say anything. I guess that the fourth elder brother should have a name at that time. ”

The little palace maid on the side whispered: "Maybe, even the prince has been sealed." ”

However, Fulin promised Yatu to be crowned the crown prince ten years later, he did not intend to regret it, but what Concubine Chen counted was that he was ready to celebrate his son with a banquet when the fourth elder brother reached the 100th anniversary of the first month, and held a naming ceremony.

These days, Fu Lin has been thinking about choosing a well-known name for the fourth elder brother, but he is not satisfied with the names sent by the Zongren Mansion and the Ministry of Rites, and feels tacky and mediocre.

The emperor's requirements are so harsh, and the people below are also exhausted, and they can't think of anything good, so they blame each other and delay, and the name of the fourth elder brother can't be decided for a long time.

On the day when the queen and Yuan Xi returned to the palace, the capital was snowing heavily for several days, and the Forbidden City was suddenly covered in snow, and the palace garden that wanted to come to Nanyuan also accumulated thick snow.

Fu Lin sent people to the island to greet his mother and sister, and Yatu sent back the words: "Please rest assured, the emperor, we will take care of Eniang." ”

In the Chengqian Palace, Jia Yin cared about the Queen Mother, asked Fulin why the Queen Mother had not recovered from her illness for a long time, and said how to send the Queen Mother and Yuan Xi back, only the two princesses were waiting, would it be too hard.

Fu Lin knew Jia Yin's intentions, she wanted to serve the Queen Mother, so that she could share her worries with the queen, but there was no shortage of people on the island, Fu Lin said frankly to Jia Yin: "You can take care of the fourth elder brother with peace of mind, which is the greatest filial piety to Eniang." ”

In front of Jia Yin, he didn't have to hide some words, and said: "Actually, the imperial sister deliberately arranged it this way, so as to help me, block Eniang from the government, and move the place for me to show her strength." Jiayin, you know that the loyalty of those ministers is not in me, but in the emperor's mother. ”

Jia Yin said fairly: "Loyalty to the Queen Mother is naturally loyal to the Emperor; If you are loyal to the emperor, you must also be loyal to the queen mother, the queen mother and the emperor are one, why bother with each other. ”

Fu Lin smiled bitterly and said, "In the future, you will definitely understand." ”

Five days later, a few newly elected to the palace promised to enter the door, scattered between the east and west six palaces, there were few people in total, and the queen asked them to salute the palaces in Kunning Palace, and then put their hands away and no longer cared.

Fu Lin used the excuse that they were still young and should not be close, and they were also put aside in a bright light.

On this day, the will of the Empress Dowager came from Nanyuan, saying that she was going to select a quota for Dongguo, and that the children of the nobles of Mongolia and Manchuria had been selected, and they would look at Donggu in the palace of Nanyuan.

Fu Lin put one hand on his forehead, always felt that something was wrong, and asked Wu Liangfu: "Do you see anything?" ”

Wu Liangfu is a fine person, and his eyes rolled and said: "You said that it was a coincidence, it happened to be the death day of the regent." ”

Fu Lin frowned: "This is too inappropriate, pass on my words, please wait a few days, I will personally go to the island at Laba Shi, and choose a forehead for the lord of Donggu County together." ”

Wu Liangfu received the order, and the words as they were were passed to the island, Su Mala had already followed Xuan Ye at this moment, and there was indeed no one around Yu'er to remind her.

When she heard the emperor talk about Dolgon's death day, Yu'er sighed, after all, very few people knew about Dolgon's real death day, and she always remembered the day when Dolgon breathed in his arms.

At this moment, Yatu is sorting out the letters for her mother on the side, many of them are greetings from the ministers, but what is written in the letter, only E-Niang herself knows.

Yatu said unabashedly: "E-Niang's letter here, hurry up with the twists and turns in the Jingyunmen duty room, can he rest assured?" ”

Yu'er said disapprerovingly: "They want to send it themselves, can I still stop it?" ”

Yatu said: "You just can't let go of the government, do you admit it? ”
