The queen said: "I have never cared about which of them is higher or lower, I only care about the containment with the court and the opinion of the emperor." You discuss with me, in the end, you don't want to discuss with the emperor's mother, what you should think about is how to open your mouth to your mother. You look at Eniang's attitude towards the two concubines, when Xian Guifei is still Xian Guifei, she can still win a little smile from Eniang, and it is Eniang who recommended her to me to take care of the affairs of the six palaces. ”

The emperor frowned slightly, there is still a gap between the concubines and concubines and concubines, but it is also the dignity of the lord of the first palace, not that Hongli can do it with a simple word, and the queen mother attaches great importance to the status of the harem, it is not impossible for him to go his own way, but why make it so embarrassing, it should be a good thing to make people happy.

"Hongyan opened up to you?" The queen asked.

"How could she, if you demote her to a promised or official woman, she won't frown." The emperor said so, his heart sighed, he was really not easy to praise another woman in front of a woman, let alone a wife, so he changed the topic, "I want to go to the northeast in the summer, although the weather is cool when I go there, but the road is hot and hard, this trip is to deal with government affairs, I want to go back quickly, I can't serve the emperor's mother, if you are not interested in going together, I will not bring anyone with you, if you want to go out for a walk, you have an explanation for the things in the palace." ”

The queen smiled and asked, "Isn't that what you want me to do?" She said peacefully, "Even if you go back quickly, it will take ten days and half a month, no matter how good the red face is, she will not entrust such a big family to her, I naturally want to stay." On a hot day, if you don't stay at home, which one wants to go with you? ”

Hongli smiled: "I will come back sooner." ”

The queen glanced at him and said, "If there are any newcomers to bring back, remember to write to me in advance, I have a good preparation." Don't say anything else, give me some face in front of Eniang, naturally you bring it back, and everyone will be thoughtful for you. ”

Hongli smiled and put his hand on his wife's shoulder and said, "Why don't you go with me, watch me well, and save so much trouble when you come back, if you don't accompany me, it's really hard to say." ”

The queen sighed: "I'm embarrassed to say, I dare to be prepared in my heart at this time, this is to think about bringing the beauty back." ”

Hongli smiled and gently rubbed the queen's arm: "No matter what you say, I don't move, anyway, this time, only you are not...... These words are unspeakable, you weigh them yourself. ”

The queen looked back, but felt that her husband's expression was ambiguous, and her eyes were overflowing, which made her heart move, and she wanted to push away but was pulled closer, and the queen snorted: "After so many years, you won't change?" ”

The night is getting deeper, the lights in the Changchun Immortal Pavilion are extinguished, and the lights in various places in the Old Summer Palace are also dimmed one after another, no matter how lively and prosperous the day is, everything will be quiet at night, and most women still spend the long night that is no different from the day, after all, there are countless harems, and the emperor is only one person.

Such sorrow, out of the imperial city also abounds, the royal family and nobles, which family is not three wives and four concubines, and even some men's families have more than the emperor's harem, not only that, there are a few hidden outside, there are good people in the green building, the emperor's women still have the dignity of the master, and those who bear all this outside the imperial city can only endure silently.

But this won't happen to Ruyin, Fu Heng is not close to women outside, and he is also a loner when he is in Shanxi, and he won't even look at other women, but he lives alone in his heart, and he may live for a lifetime.

It's been a while since Fu Heng came back in a blink of an eye, the couple is still as loving and harmonious as before, Ruyin knows that she can't drive away the person in her husband's heart, and she can't find out what he's thinking, as long as Fu Heng in front of her eyes still cares about her well, she will live the life between husband and wife in this family, today they went to the mansion during the Dragon Boat Festival, when Ruyin heard the third lady gossip about Fu Heng and several brothers, he said that he would never take a concubine in his life, and was teased by his brothers, but the third lady said sourly: "Even if he can't do it in the future, It's also a blessing for my sister to have this sentence, and we'......"

At that time, Ruyin looked at the second sister-in-law on the side, and felt sorry for the harm caused to her by the second brother hiding Jiaojiao in the outer gold house, so she thoughtfully said something else and changed the topic.

At this moment, late at night, Fu Heng has not yet returned to the room in the study, Ruyin sewed into the small belly pocket of Xia Wear for her son under the lamp, when Fu Heng entered the door, she was picking out the candle, it seemed that it was not bright enough, Fu Heng said: "You often tell me to read less writing at night, but I think about the needle and thread, what work has to be done in a hurry, and I am not allowed to touch it again in the future." ”

Ruyin smiled coquettishly: "It's not what your son wants to wear, even yours and I won't bother like this." ”

Fu Heng sat on the side and looked at her gently, Ruyin was a little embarrassed, and asked: "Is the thing done, are you hungry, I see that you haven't eaten much in the mansion, so let people stew chicken soup and warm it in the kitchen." ”

"I ate in Shanxi and my waist is round, and when I come back, I want to clear the reduction, and I will be free of supper in the future." Fu Heng smiled, picked up Ruyin's sewn belly pocket and looked at it, "Just pull a piece of cloth for him, and embroider it with such a detailed pattern, but he will grow up in a blink of an eye, how long can he wear it?" Do you bother like this every year? ”

Ruyin's head drooped slightly, her face was shy, and she said: "Are you satisfied with Fu Ling'an, I hope he has younger brothers and sisters, these little clothes are not long worn, but in the future, they will be passed on to their younger brothers and sisters, and the affection of their brothers and sisters will be in it." ”

Fu Heng's heart was slightly hot, Ruyin was so good, he really didn't know where to start, and it was because of this that he felt guilty and felt more pity for her. He doesn't care how many children he has in the future, but since Ruyin likes children, he will also like them, and now he doesn't know how to give affection to someone or anything, so he follows Ruyin to learn, what Ruyin likes, he likes.

Ruyin packed up the needle and thread in her hand, and when her husband returned to the room, she naturally couldn't leave him alone, and instructed the maid to bring hot water to wash together, and when she put on her bedclothes for Fu Heng, she remembered the words of the concubines during the day, and asked: "I heard my sister-in-law say that the emperor is going to the east, are you going?" ”

"I've already started to make arrangements." Fu Heng responded, "Someone has gone to fight the front station, the emperor seems to want me to stay in the capital, in short, everything will be arranged, if you go, it will only be ten days and half a month to come back, you can rest assured." ”

Ruyin said: "It's so easy to look forward to you coming back, I really can't bear to let you run out again, Fu Ling'an has grown up, and you have to be educated by Amma." When he is disobedient, someone must pull down his face to take care of him, but as soon as I kill him, he will cry to death, and I can't get angry. Fu Heng, I won't trouble you about anything else, but I can't raise a child alone, and Ama must also have Amma's responsibility. ”

Fu Heng nodded again and again, and said, "I know you are hard, Fu Ling'an is our eldest son, whether the eldest brother is good or not, it is very important to the younger brothers and sisters." ”

Ruyin was satisfied, and bowed into her husband's chest: "If you can understand me, I will be at ease." ”

A few days later, the emperor's eastern tour gradually spread, I heard that this trip did not bring harem concubines, the women lost interest, they didn't care about what the emperor was going to do, and they talked to each other about whether they would bring any newcomers back, and Wei was now working beside the queen, but it was better to just come back for a while, and stick with the emperor all the time, although there was no sign of falling out of favor, but the emperor must not be satisfied. And at this moment, no one knows that the person they think is unsatisfactory is thinking about how to promote Hongyan again.

In the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, Hongyan told the queen about the arrangements for the use of the Old Summer Palace in various places after the summer, and the trivial things such as how many mosquito coils and mung beans were carefully dealt with, and the queen couldn't find anything inappropriate. ”

The emperor has been in the Changchun Immortal Pavilion for the past few days, and Hongyan has never seen the emperor much, so naturally it is the first time he has heard of it, and he can't help but stand up nervously, just because Duanyang watched her father and mother come and go in a hurry that day, she herself thought in her heart, if she can be promoted to the concubine position, it will be easy for relatives to meet in the future, and the emperor can't see through her mind?

"The Queen Mother is a pass, I made an appointment with the emperor to discuss with the Queen Mother this afternoon, in case it ......," the Queen said gently, "In case the Queen Mother is unhappy, or even misunderstands you, you must be stable, no matter what, the emperor and I will still be." ”

Hongyan looked at her in a daze, and didn't know what to say for a while, the queen sighed lightly: "It's not for you, I used to think that the queen mother was ruthless and arbitrary, but later things proved again and again that Jiang is still old and spicy, and she doesn't do many things beautifully and embarrassingly, but in the end, it's for the emperor's good, for our good." Hongyan, in the future, if you rise step by step, she will become more and more strict with you, if there is a grievance, it will be on the emperor's face. ”

Hongyan blessed her body and said: "With the words of Niangniang, how can the concubines still have grievances." ”

Having said that, the results of the discussion between the emperor and the queen mother in the afternoon are not optimistic. Princess Hejing was originally going to make tea for Huang Ama, and when she came back to see the atmosphere in the palace, Mama Hua stepped forward to signal the princess to step back, and when she went to the door, Hejing couldn't help but ask what was going on, Mama Hua said: "For the sake of Wei Guiren." ”

In the room, the Queen Mother calmly asked: "I only sealed the nobles this year, can't I wait another year?" If she is pregnant, she can say anything anywhere, and I will not embarrass you, but now I give an explanation, that is, other people come to me to complain, and I have something to say. ”

Hongli and the queen glanced at each other, and he said: "After all, the noble person is low, and my son hopes that she can better help Anyi, and the concubine position is not high or low, what do you think?" ”
