"The Queen Mother said, don't think much about it when you leave there, and don't mention it to anyone." Yuan Xi answered honestly, "Your Majesty, do you have anything to ask?" ”

"I've seen everything you've seen, and I know everything, so there's nothing to ask you. I'm afraid you'll be scared, so let's take a look. Fu Lin said mildly, "She's scary, isn't she?" ”

"At first glance, it's weird." Yuan Xi said frankly, "But when I think that the wicked have evil retribution, then they deserve it, there is nothing to be afraid of." ”

"In the end, it's the daughter of a military general." "I should think of it that way, she killed my brother, and indirectly killed my aunt, and then my father...... Forget it, don't mention it. ”

Yuan Xi said: "But the emperor, the concubines don't understand, why did the Queen Mother take me there, did I do something wrong, the Queen Mother wants to beat the concubines?" ”

"What did you do wrong that you don't know?" Fu Lin poked her heart and smiled, "Honestly." ”

Yuan Xi looked at the emperor tangledly, and after thinking about it for a long time, there was only one thing in his heart, his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and he said aggrievedly: "Because I was too aggrieved in my heart before, I buried the emperor's jade wrench finger in the mud." ”

Fu Lin frowned, but remembered: "Last time outside the Cining Palace, rolled under your skirt with a wrench?" ”

Yuan Xi nodded with a red face, climbed onto the kang, took out the jade wrench finger that had regained its luster from the cabinet and held it to Fu Lin, and said, "Later, you asked the concubine to ask for a silk handkerchief, and I was worried that you would also remember the matter of the jade wrench, so you dug it out again." ”

"I always thought you were troubled at that time." Fu Lin played with the jade wrench, "I remember that one morning before dawn, you were outside the Kunning Palace, causing the guards to think that you were an assassin, is there such a thing?" ”

Yuan Xi asked happily: "The emperor remembers?" ”

Fu Lin said in disgust: "Still proud? Can't you make me remember something good? ”

Yuan Xi begged with a smile: "This jade wrench, is it okay for the emperor to leave it to the concubines, you said that it is not easy to roll, it has to roll under the skirts of the concubines, and now for the concubines, this is a treasure." ”

Fu Lin put the wrench on Yuan Xi's thumb, her fingers were white and thin, and they were wide and wide: "Put it away, and then dare to bury it in the mud, and see how I clean you up." ”

Yuan Xi was satisfied to admire the wrench in his hand under the lamplight, but the emperor said beside him: "I'm afraid Eniang hopes that you will understand what good and evil are rewarded now, and don't go astray in the harem." ”

Seeing that the emperor's expression was serious and what he said was more serious, Yuan Xi hurriedly got up and lowered his head to listen.

Fu Lin took her hand and said, "You see, they were also clean girls when they came, but they changed so quickly. Of course, it's not all their fault, but people's hearts have to change, and they can't stop it. You saw with your own eyes what happened to Suo Xue Luo, and today I also saw the noble concubine, Yuan Xi, don't forget. ”

"The concubine will not forget." Yuan Xi curtled his knees and said, "Your Majesty, I will never forget." ”

"Okay, I'm going to get busy with court affairs, and then ...... I'm going to Kunning Palace. Fu Lin said, "I won't be with you tonight." ”

Yuan Xi smiled softly: "The concubine sends the emperor." ”

She sent Fulin all the way to the gate of Jingren Palace, in fact, until now, Yuan Xi is still a little in a trance when she sees the scene outside the door.

This is next to the Qianqing Palace, and the front lights are particularly bright after nightfall, and the place where she has lived for most of the year has always been cold and very desolate.

"Your Majesty." Yuan Xi stopped the emperor when he was about to walk away.

"What's the matter?" Fu Lin asked good-naturedly.

"Before, the emperor asked Mr. Wu to light the lamps in front of each palace in the East Sixth Palace?" Yuan Xi asked.

"I'm afraid you'll stumble." Fu Lin smiled, "But at that time, it was all about Tong Tulai's face, and it wasn't for you, it was too late for me to bother you." ”

Yuan Xi pouted slightly, but there was a sweet smile in her eyes, and Fu Lin was in a good mood, so she asked her to rest earlier, and left.

After seeing the emperor go away, Yuan Xi came back, noticed that Xiaoquanzi and they were all laughing, and couldn't help asking, "Are you laughing at me?" ”

Xiao Quanzi hurriedly said: "How dare the slave laugh at you, but you are full of glory now, in our Jingren Palace, you don't need to light the lights at night, it is enough to brighten the hall." ”

Yuan Xi blushed, and he couldn't say anything powerful, so Lai Wang pouted on the side: "Master, Xiaoquanzi dares to laugh at you, and the slave will slap his mouth for you." ”

"You're not a good thing either." Pomegranate stepped forward and scolded, "You have fat guts, let the emperor know that you dare to tease your master, I see how many heads you have." ”

Xiao Quanzi smiled evilly: "That's not it, now we are nobles, but the emperor is the top of his heart." ”

Yuan Xi was anxious: "Come to Wang, tear his mouth for me." ”

Pomegranate was calm: "Don't make trouble, let's be next to the Qianqing Palace now, I'm afraid I can hear it when I laugh so loudly, but I can't cause trouble for Miss." ”

"Little pomegranate, you are becoming more and more sensible." Yuan Xi said, "E-Niang knows, she will definitely praise you." ”

Pomegranate said triumphantly: "The slave is a person who has been praised by the emperor, of course she must be steady." ”

Jingren Palace is always full of joy, even when Tong Guiren is most unlucky, he is never lifeless.

However, Kunning Palace, which should be the most noble and glorious, is not as good as day by day, and the eunuchs and palace maids who were originally full of pride and followed the queen are now complaining, secretly looking forward to when they can leave the middle palace.

In the middle of the night, Fulin came back, Meng Guqing hadn't slept yet, but he didn't greet him, just watched him walk in coldly.

Tana took the maidens to serve the emperor, and soon after everyone stepped back and closed the door to the inner sanctum.

The two little eunuchs under Wu Liangfu stood under the eaves and whispered to each other: "Guess, how many hours will you quarrel tonight?" ”

was heard by Wu Liangfu, and one of them slapped them and told them to get out.

In the dormitory, Fulin asked Meng Guqing if he was in good health, if he had anything he wanted to do, or what he wanted.

I said these things because I don't know what else to say.

Meng Guqing sneered: "Listening to the emperor's words, it seems like he wants to say goodbye to me." Fulin, are you really going to abolish me? ”

Fu Lin shook his head: "The imperial sister is scaring you, although my uncle has this thought, but this is not for him to decide, how can he decide who is the queen of the Qing Dynasty, just like if I didn't want you at the beginning, my uncle couldn't send you here." ”

"So, since you want me, why don't you treat me well?" Meng Guqing's voice was very weak, "Since you marry me, why don't you care about me?" ”

"If you say the same thing a thousand times, if you don't want to listen to it, you will never listen to it." Fu Lin said, "If we continue to talk about it, we will quarrel again, I am very tired, let's sleep." ”

"Then go to sleep, I'm tired too." Unexpectedly, Meng Guqing did not entangle as unrelentingly as in the past, and after saying this, he turned over and lay down.

Fulin also lay down, there was silence in the hall, I don't know how long it took, Meng Guqing said: "Fulin, give me some more time, okay?" ”

"It takes as much time as it takes." Fu Lin said, "I never thought that I would abolish you, you are the first queen of the Qing Dynasty to walk in from the noon gate." ”

That night, there was no quarrel in the Kunning Palace, only the queen's sobbing could be faintly heard, and the emperor left for the early court the next morning, and the queen did not send off or show her face, so she couldn't guess what was going on between them.

But on this day, the harem went to Cining Palace to say goodbye, and the queen came.

Although her face is not good, her complexion is also poor, she is wearing a phoenix robe with black edges on a gold background, and she is still full of nobility with her already beautiful face.

Even Yu'er was a little surprised, but everything went well today, and she didn't necessarily deliberately pick the queen.

On such a day, I persisted until the middle of June, and when the heat was scorching, the harem could be so clean, and Fulin felt that even the affairs of the court seemed to be smooth.

And the emperor is very busy, Cining Palace's invitation is often Wu Liangfu to kowtow, in the harem, in addition to Kunning Palace, only Barya was taken to Qianqing Palace twice, and the rest is all good things in Jingren Palace, the once deserted East Sixth Palace, has really become a treasure of feng shui.

On June 15, regardless of the hot weather, Mrs. Tong took her maidservant to Tianning Temple in the west of the city to burn incense.

Now the whole city of Beijing knows that Tong Tulai's daughter is favored in the palace, which makes Mrs. Tong very uneasy. She can't do anything for her daughter, only to burn incense and worship the Buddha to ask the Buddha for blessing in exchange for some peace of mind.

After worshipping the Buddha, the maidservants helped the lady out of the Daxiong Treasure Hall, and just walked down the steps, a noble lady came out of the meditation room on the side, and said with a smile: "Excuse me, is it Mrs. Tong?" ”

Mrs. Tong stood still and took a closer look, this woman was younger than herself in her thirties, and her appearance was a little impressed, vaguely as if she had seen it, but she couldn't remember it for a while, and she reported her home, saying that she was the wife of the Governor's Mansion of the Light Car and Dong Obadu.

"It was Mrs. Duwei, it was rude." Mrs. Tong smiled, "Where did we meet you?" ”

Mrs. Badu smiled: "That year, the old lady of the family had a birthday, you and the adults came to the banquet, we met each other, I was still with a big belly at that time, do you remember?" ”

As he spoke, he greeted his daughter from the meditation room behind him: "Jia Yue, I came to see Mrs. Tong." ”
