Shu Shu and Ling Zhao didn't leave until noon, just because some things couldn't be moved to Cining Palace, so Su Mala led them to check them out.

Yu'er said that she didn't have to come over again today, and asked the two children to rest after they were done, but when they left, Yu'er stood alone under the window and watched for a long time.

The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was organized decently, and it was busy, and the palace was lively for a while.

Although the pressure on Xuan Ye in the court is still heavy, there are two fairy-like ladies in the harem, talking and laughing and taking care of all kinds of things, the atmosphere in the Forbidden City is very different from before, and even those little eunuchs and palace maids seem to be able to see hope in their eyes.

Yu'er was relieved, but there was also a faint uneasiness in her heart, when Su Mala returned this day, she saw Gege holding a book in the study, but her eyes were fixed, and she asked worriedly: "What's wrong?" ”

"It's fine." Yu'er came back to her senses and asked rhetorically, "Is the matter done?" ”

"The two ladies are both noble daughters of the family, they haven't seen any big scenes, and many things have already been understood at home, and the slave maid just told them about their experience and mentioned some details." Su Mala said with a smile, "Young people are just different, pick a utensil and wine glass, they are all vibrant." Don't look at a few cups and chopsticks, placed there, the atmosphere is different. ”

Yu'er didn't show a smile, her eyes were full of regret: "If Yuan Xi is here, she is not yet thirty years old, she is already born sweet, and she stands in a bunch with her daughters-in-law, maybe she can pretend to be a sister." I have sent so many people away in my life, and I have long been numb, but when Yuan Xi asked me to be willing to exchange her life for the Qing Dynasty, I was really reluctant. ”

"Yuan Xi is watching it in the sky." Su Mala was also in tears, "She will bless the emperor and her daughter-in-law." ”

Yu'er shook her head: "Do you know, Huang Taiji once said to my sister that people will not get together in Jiuquan at all when they die, and those are all words of the living coaxing the living." We have come through so many ups and downs, what are you still coaxing me with such words, are they not willing to bless my children with Aunt Huang Taiji and his sister? ”

Su Mala said: "Okay, why are you sad, what has aroused your thoughts?" ”

Yu'er said: "Seeing that Shu Shu and Lingzhao have a discussion, although I am relieved and satisfied, I can't let go of something in my heart." Unlike back then, when Yuan Xi Barya was with the queen, I never worried. Su Mala, am I thinking too much? ”

Su Mala said: "No, after all, they are different children, and they have different positions." Back then, only Yuan Xi was fine, the queen didn't care about everything, and Barya's status was low, but now the two children are just as good and as strong, which is hard to say. ”

Yu'er knew that Su Mala could understand what she was thinking, and said: "This morning I was still sighing that Lingzhao would not be a man, and it would not be too late to ask for peace, what to do must be earlier than the queen, who knew that Shu Shu came, they actually said yes, but I was careful." But after thinking about it again, I don't blame me, can the two of them really be harmonious and be sisters? ”

Su Mala smiled: "Why force them to have heart-to-heart friendship, back then, you and the Fourteenth Fujin were considered sisters?" ”

Yu'er was stunned, yes, she and Qi Qige are not sisters in the end.

"When you say that, I realize that I haven't thought of Zizig for a long time." Yu'er smiled bitterly and stacked the books in front of her neatly, "It turns out that loneliness can also become a habit." ”

Su Mala wanted to divert the topic, and was more trapped in the sadness of the deceased, and said: "Concubine Zhao is doing things, there are still some axes, even if she told the queen mother today that she came first, she would not come so early, she was standing outside the door, and the palace maids and eunuchs who came and went could see it, could she and the queen go to explain one by one, saying that they said that they would come first and come later?" ”

Yu'er nodded: "No, I'll just say where to make me uncomfortable, Lingzhao's kid is still a little stupid." ”

Su Mala thought for a while: "I'm afraid it's not stupid, the slave maid feels that Concubine Zhao is anxious to show something." You see, her family background is not as good as the queen's mother, her appearance is a tie, and her trust and reliability are far away from the queen. ”

Yu'er thought thoughtfully: "After the Mid-Autumn Festival, how to reward meritorious deeds, I originally wanted a bowl of water to be level." ”

Su Mala said with a smile: "But the slave maid feels that the queen doesn't care about the weight of this bowl of water, and the mother doesn't care." ”

Yu'er said: "Yes, Shu Shu is generous and tolerant, and he is a child with a heart, but we can't sacrifice the good of others in vain, otherwise some people will not agree." ”

Su Mala became serious and asked, "You said Suo Etu?" The people of the Hesheri family. ”

Yu'er sneered, her mood finally brightened a lot, and said, "Xuan Ye, who else can there be?" Can Suo Etu make me look at it? ”

Su Mala suddenly laughed: "That's not it, our emperor has really grown up, don't blame the slave maid for being not serious, the slave maid still remembers the little appearance of the emperor hiding in the slave's arms when he left the palace to avoid pox, and it hurts when he thinks about it." But as soon as he turned around, hey, people looked at their beloved, and their eyes were a little colorful, and the slaves and maids didn't dare to look at them. ”

"That stinky boy." Yu'er smiled, "Aren't you going to be Amma?" ”

Speaking of these, Yu'er asked, "Is it okay for Rong to promise everything?" What about the child, I haven't seen her in a few days. ”

Su Mala comforted Gege: "With me here, everything is fine, I don't want you to worry about things, don't worry about it." ”

Yu'er glanced at her: "Dare to love this empress dowager, are you the one who deserves it?" ”

In the days that followed, the palace was in full swing to prepare for the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Empress Dowager also made a decree to invite people to the palace for the banquet, and all the houses were carefully prepared, and the queen was even more rare, inviting the whole family to the palace to gather.

This made Suo Etu overjoyed, and he was naturally indispensable to the palace to enjoy the banquet, and it was not easy to go to the inner palace to say a few words to the queen, it has been two years, and his niece has not seen him properly.

Although her family was not qualified to go to the main hall to enjoy a banquet with the princes and ministers, the Empress Dowager allowed them to enter the palace from the Shenwu Gate on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival and get together with Rong.

The pot-bellied person counts the days and looks forward to the Mid-Autumn Festival every day, and the people around her are staring at her belly and betting on whether it is a man or a woman.

But both men and women are the emperor's first child, which is of great significance, and those princes who have never even met each other have also sent Mid-Autumn Festival gifts one after another, and gave her a small promise of this low position alone.

At the moment, Rong promised that neither the Dong family lived in the East and West Sixth Palaces, but like Barya back then, they were in the small palace courtyard outside the East and West Sixth Palaces. It's just that Barya Fujin can be next to the Empress Dowager, and they are far away, and the first few masters on weekdays will not go this way at all.

Coincidentally, today's people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs brought Concubine Zhao to the treasury here to check the musical instruments, and decided to have fun outside the ceremonial music at the feast. Just passing by the residence where Rong promised them, I heard the palace maids arguing from a distance, scolding each other with indecent and ugly words, which was very noisy.

"Mother, you later." The people from the Internal Affairs Office asked Ling Zhao to stay, and hurriedly ran over to scold, "Who is making a loud noise here, and are there any rules?" ”

Ling Zhao and Dongyun glanced at each other, and walked over unhurriedly.

What was shouting was the auspicious core around Rong Promise, as well as the palace maid of the Dong family, Dong promised to go out when he heard the movement, but who knew that he actually bumped into Concubine Zhao, and saluted in a panic: "Niangniang is auspicious." ”

"What are you arguing about?" Ling Zhao asked.

"Ask the mother to call the shots." The two little palace maids knelt down together and pointed to a middle-aged woman on the side, "This person came to borrow money from the promisers again, and took us to promise in the past, and asked for this and that. The money we promised, I saw it go to her pocket, saying that it was borrowed, but I never got it back. We said that she was not, she also used the identity of the grandmother to suppress the slaves and maids, and wanted to catch the slaves and maids to go to the worship room to play the board, and begged Concubine Zhao to be the master. ”

The two little palace maids, with sharp teeth, finished the matter with a chatter.

An old palace maid on the side, her face turned red, and she quibbled: "Concubine Zhao, don't listen to these two little hooves talking nonsense." ”

This kind of entanglement has been seen countless times at home, Ling Zhao is not unusual, and the person from the Internal Affairs Office next to him said respectfully: "Niangniang, I really don't dare to disturb you for such a trivial matter, so naturally someone will come to clean them up." ”

Ling Zhao smiled slightly and asked Dong, "How much silver did you borrow?" ”
