Fu Lin wiped away Meng Guqing's tears with his cuffs: "Actually, you understand the truth, when you were in Horqin, your uncle should have taught you, no matter how much I say, it is better for you to figure it out yourself." However, if you don't understand, I will accompany you to think about it. ”

Meng Guqing sobbed a few times, and after Fu Lin rubbed her cheeks, her emotions gradually stabilized, and she said in a hoarse voice: "I understand, but I didn't expect that I would like you like you like this way." ”

Fu Lin smiled and rubbed Meng Guqing's face: "Look, you are still very good at coaxing people to be happy, so why do you say those mean and sour words?" ”

"Who coaxed you, I'm telling the truth." Meng Guqing pushed him away unhappily, "There will be so many people who will coax you in the future, can I be guilty of practicing myself?" ”

"Here we go again." Fu Lin said angrily, "In this world, there will probably not be a second person who quarrels with me, I cherish it very much, but you can't get along with me every day for trivial things, no matter how good the relationship is, we will quarrel, okay?" ”

"I listen to you." Meng Guqing lowered his face and said arrogantly, "But there is one more thing, you can't turn over old accounts in the future, otherwise I will be useless in your eyes." ”

Fu Lin couldn't do anything with her, and Meng Guqing's temper passed, so she was not so angry, knowing that the emperor still had the patience to coax her, she naturally went down the steps, confessed her mistake, and the matter passed.

In the evening, the sewing room sent the ironed dress for the Queen Mother, which she will wear when she reads the draft girl tomorrow, and Yu'er's figure has not changed much over the years, so she is naturally too lazy to try it on.

Su Mala took it while talking about the things in Kunning Palace, and after saying that the Queen Mother didn't react for a long time, she turned around to see that people were worried about a book, as if they couldn't understand something.

"Did you hear what the slave said?" Su Mala was unhappy, "Let's get down to business." ”

Yu'er said: "After the day is dispersed tomorrow, ask Fan Wencheng to enter the palace." ”

When she realized that Su Mala was unhappy, she hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, you say you say, I can't listen to it?" ”

"The slave said that the emperor and the queen mother were reconciled." Su Mala said.

"Isn't that how it should be?" Yu'er disagreed, "But ah, feelings will be noisy, if it is an ordinary couple, Fu Lin will grow older, the time of being the emperor is getting longer and longer, he will become more proud, and his personality will be stronger, if Meng Guqing does not change, she is the only one who suffers, and I can't hurt it." ”

"What did you do to make trouble with the first emperor back then?" Su Mala asked suddenly.

"Me?" Yu'er held the book, raised her head and thought, and said with a smile, "I didn't dare to yell at Huang Taiji, and my aunt didn't pick my skin?" ”

The master and servant laughed together, and someone outside the door spread the word that the queen sent someone to send Mongolian snacks, Yu'er said: "Use dim sum for dinner, don't pass it on, the two boxes of Jiangnan rouge sent in by Qifujin this morning will be given to the queen." Tell her to dress up tomorrow. ”

The palace people in front of the door took the order and left, Su Mala opened the dim sum and looked at it, and read: "But then again, the identity of the queen mother and the queen mother, and now the identity of you and the queen, is different." You can't discipline your daughter-in-law like the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother did when she controlled you. ”

"Whether it's a difference in identity, or an emotional intimacy, there's everything." Yu'er said frankly, "If I really like Meng Guqing, I will not have so many scruples when I treat it as my own child." She has already been taught what should be beaten and scolded, and I am also wrong here, which is unfair to her. ”

Su Mala said: "After tomorrow, the slave and maid will be Zhang Luoren, open the six palaces of the east and west, and clean up." ”

After this night passes, the future of the show girls who enter the second selection will be decided.

Let's say that if you enter the second election, if you are not elected to the palace, you will be given to the royal family as a daughter-in-law. Early on, there were royal relatives and nobles on the roster, and whichever family had a marriageable son, the household department and the internal affairs office would sort it out, and according to these numbers, the proportion of the number of people who were selected for the second election was arranged.

In the first draft of the eighth year of entering the customs, there are many people who are looking forward to the emperor's marriage, and it is the first time since Nurhachi that this system has been implemented, and everyone is uncertain. Moreover, the draft system of concubines in the Qing Dynasty is very different from that of the Ming Dynasty, and the Han people in Beijing are very rare.

This night, all families are nervously preparing for tomorrow's re-election, Tong Tulai Mansion, E Shuo's stepwife, is putting on makeup for Yuan Xi, using the rouge gouache they brought from Jiangnan, and painting a pretty face, which is bright and beautiful.

Yuan Xi looked at her mother shyly, then at her stepwife and Sister Jiayin, turned around and looked in the mirror again, was stunned for a moment and pouted: "The cheeks are so red, like a monkey's buttocks." ”

Mrs. step-Madame laughed, Mrs. Tong held her forehead and sighed, Dong Ejiayin on the side stepped forward, gently wiped off some for Yuan Xi, and then covered it with powder, and asked, "Is this better?" ”

Yuan Xi looked at the two girls in the mirror, and asked innocently and cutely: "Sister, am I better looking than you." ”

Jia Yin smiled and nodded: "Of course it is." ”

Mrs. Tong said: "Jiayin, if you had come to the capital a few years earlier, how good it would have been, teach me this sister of yours, look at her, when she arrives in the palace tomorrow, will she also say monkey ass to the emperor and queen mother?" ”

Yuan Xi lowered his head shyly: "Eniang, I will never say it." ”

Mrs. Tong was helpless, so she invited her step-wife to go to rest earlier, and told the maid and the old mother to hurry up and wait for the ladies to wash up, and she would go out before dawn tomorrow.

After tossing for a long time, she returned to her refreshing and refreshing original appearance, Yuan Xi felt steady, and lay side by side with Jia Yin, she turned over a few times, she couldn't help it, turned to Jia Yin and said, "Sister, I'll tell you a secret." ”

"What?"

"I've seen the emperor."

Jia Yin listened with interest: "Where have you seen it?" ”

Yuan Xi talked about the New Year's Day and Lantern Festival that year, and said that the emperor might not remember her for a long time, and after chattering for a long time, she gradually fell asleep.

Jia Yin got up to cover the quilt for Yuan Xi, and also remembered the incident many years ago, she believed that the emperor must not remember the little girl who was beaten down by him.

Although she soon received candy from the palace, saying that it was given by the emperor, Ama and Eniang repeatedly told them that day that the emperor must not tell others about the fact that the emperor had hidden in her grandmother's house.

She said guiltily: "Yuan Xi, I have also met the emperor, I'm sorry, I can't tell you." ”

The next day, a carriage sent the sisters into the palace, entered the Shunzhen Gate early, and waited in a neat line in the imperial garden, where they were to be officially received when the emperor had finished his official affairs.

Today, the Eight Banners were pieced together, Yuan Xi and Jia Yin were originally very close to each other, but I don't know what a few eunuchs and palace maids whispered, so they suddenly took Yuan Xi away and gave her a different place to wait.

This move attracted the attention of other show girls, who seemed to think that the palace people here had gained some benefits from Tong Yuanxi, but they didn't know that those palace people misunderstood that Tong Yuanxi had a relationship with Su Mala's aunt, and they were in a hurry to give Su Mala a favor.
