Suddenly hearing Hongyan say this, Fu Heng couldn't help frowning, don't say that she leads the way for Hongyan, even if she is her stepping stone, she is willing, but Hongyan will never rashly let herself lead the way for her, after all, there is a difference between men and women, after all, Fu Heng is a foreign minister, and it is right and wrong for concubines and other men to say a word more.

"I came from there, I didn't see anyone, and I don't have to look around." Hongyan meant something, but I didn't know if Fu Heng could understand.

"Yes, but the minister has other things to explain, and he sent his subordinates to lead the way for Niangniang, and ask Niangniang to forgive her sins." Fu Heng bowed and said, and then commanded all the guards who followed him to escort Ling Concubine, seven or eight people led the way in front with lanterns, and Fu Heng stepped aside and said: "The night road is not easy to walk, please be careful." ”

Seeing that Fu Heng would not go to the place where Xian Guifei was, Hongyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, nodded in greeting, and walked on the road that was illuminated by the guards. And Fu Heng waited silently on the side of the road alone, after Hongyan walked away, he quietly went to the road where Hongyan came, Hongyan was so cautious and careful, he must have met something, not that he didn't see anyone, no matter what it was, Fu Heng felt that he needed to keep an eye on Hongyan.

But Fu Heng came to find it, but saw Xian Guifei and the palace people on the road, Xian Guifei seemed to be sick and as if she was being attacked, she was softly supported by the palace people, and she could hardly walk on her own, and later she was carried by the accompanying eunuchs and hurriedly went to Qingyan in Kyushu.

Fu Hengyuan saw that Concubine Xian was like this, and wanted to step forward to help, but when he thought of Hongyan's caution, there was obviously something inconvenient, so he hid in the dark, and then joined the men who sent Hongyan to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, and continued to inspect everywhere as if nothing happened.

In the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, the queen listened with great interest to Hongyan's description of Sebuteng Balejur, and said with a smile: "How can I listen to you, like a silly boy, if you are an honest person, you will be bullied by Hejing in the future." ”

Hongyan said: "The concubine looks very good, the emperor doesn't let the concubine say more, I'm afraid that the concubine won't say it well, the emperor will come over at night, and the emperor will tell you personally." ”

The queen bowed: "The emperor explained like this this morning, and he himself was very nervous, for fear that He Jing would not like it." ”

Before the words fell, the child in the womb was punched and kicked for a while, and the queen was a little out of breath, but the smile on her face was so bright, and she said to Hongyan: "This child is so energetic, he must be strong and healthy, and I only ask him for these two." ”

Hongyan brought warm water and asked the queen if she wanted to drink it, watching the queen's stomach rise and fall, it was really scary and interesting, counting the days for more than two months, I don't know if it was a man or a woman, Hongyan always prayed in her heart that the queen could give birth to a little prince, and in the future she would no longer have to bear any responsibility for the heirs of the emperor, and her children could be like Buddha, and she could be raised by her side.

"Hongyan, are you taking Imperial Doctor's medicine?" The queen asked.

"Eat, you asked Imperial Doctor He to prepare the medicine for the concubine to regulate the body." Hongyan was originally very happy, but when the queen mentioned taking medicine, she couldn't help but lower her eyes, "Don't worry, the concubine's body is fine." ”

"You're so young, naturally it's fine." The queen took her hand and said, "Heart disease still needs heart medicine, you see I am the best example, you followed me at that time, you know best what kind of life I lived, I have been in a good mood in the past few years, and I should come, who would have thought of it." ”

Hongyan said with a smile: "This is the blessing of the mother, now as long as the mother and son are safe, the little brother will grow up healthily in the future, and the concubine will be satisfied with the Buddha by her side." As you said, just let it be, what should come will come. ”

The queen nodded and said: "The queen mother must not understand why she can't crush you again and again, isn't it because you are broad-minded, but she ...... in her heart."

"Niangniang, let's talk about the forehead, why did you mention those again, today is a good day." Hongyan said, "The concubine once heard the concubine Niangniang say that the Lantern Festival is the day when Kangxi Ye and Concubine De Niangniang make love, and now our princess and the concubine meet, it must also be a complete life." ”

The queen couldn't help but be overjoyed: "If this is the case, it is really my greatest blessing." ”

As the night deepened, Hongyan did not return to Xifeng Xiuse, she was not a concubine with a high status, today the queen was not there, Xian Guifei withdrew halfway, and the pure concubine became the most noble one, naturally there is no need for Hongyan This scenery is in the way, if she is not there, others will be happy. The queen sent many people in the palace to send her back, and Hongyan paid attention to the movement on the road, and sure enough, she didn't see Concubine Xian again.

After the Lantern Festival banquet dispersed, Fu Heng sent a few Mongolian distinguished guests to live in the annex in the city, and after settling everything and sending someone to monitor their whereabouts, he was about to return home. On the way, I passed by the mansion of the Fucha family, and remembered that there was something to discuss at the court meeting tomorrow, so I stopped and went into the door to discuss a few words with the second brother, and the people said that the masters had returned to their rooms, and he did not alarm the other brothers, and went straight to the courtyard of the second brother.

Fu Erye, like Fu Heng, doesn't like extravagance and waste, and the courtyards of the other houses are full of magnificent servants and clouds, but the second brother's side is simple and deserted, especially after they come back from the Orkun River, they use even fewer maids.

After the person in front of the door invited Fu Heng in, he didn't see half a maid inside, and he didn't know whether he was asked to retreat or be lazy, he walked all the way to the door of the second brother's bedroom, and wanted to knock on the door to ask the second brother to come out to speak, but suddenly heard the second sister-in-law crying: "I beg you, let the emperor send a foreign errand, let's go." I'm going crazy if I stay in the capital for one more day, why do I have so many things to do, and I always have to go to the palace. She haunts me and pesters you, is she going to wipe out our Fucha family? ”

Fu Heng frowned tightly, turned around and saw that there was no one around, and continued to listen to a few words, only to hear the second brother say: "I have nothing to do with her, what can happen, don't be suspicious." Do you think it's so easy to get a foreign errand, didn't you say that the Orkun River was too bitter, so I tried my best to come back? I asked you not to enter the palace, and you don't want to be talked about, it's okay if you don't enter the palace, and it's good if you say that your health is not good. We are all people with grandchildren, what are we afraid of? ”

At this time, those girls who didn't know where to go appeared, three or four people carried a large bucket of hot water, and saw Fu Heng standing in front of the door from a distance, so they asked him why he didn't go in.

Hearing movement inside, the second sister-in-law ran to the door in a panic, and saw the little brother-in-law standing there, and a few maids had just returned, her face was full of horror, and she ran back without saying anything.

Fu Qing came out and asked with a calm face, "How long have you been here?" ”

Fu Heng said: "I heard a few words about what should be listened to and what shouldn't be heard, but I don't know what the second brother and sister-in-law are arguing about, if the second brother feels inconvenient to say, I will leave." Tomorrow, let's talk about it in the Old Summer Palace. ”

Fu Qing has suppressed this matter alone for many years, and his wife has become more and more chattering, for the sake of Xian Guifei's obsession to make their family uneasy, there is nowhere to say that there is suffering in his heart, he drank a few glasses of wine tonight, and he didn't control it when he talked to his wife, and when he saw that his younger brother also heard it, he said: "Send someone to bring a message to my younger brother and sister that you are in the mansion, can you accompany the second brother to drink a few more glasses of wine?" ”

"Yes." Fu Heng did not refuse, and asked people to pass a message to Ruyin, who was still in confinement, and left with the second brother.

Let's say that Ruyin was waiting for Fu Heng to return at home, but sent news that she had gone to the mansion to drink, thinking that it was a good thing that Fu Heng was willing to be close to his brothers now, so she didn't take it to heart.

But the husband is not around is really unsteady, a night of tossing and turning, occasionally heard the cry from the younger son's room and the movement of the nurse patting, confused, suddenly someone pushed the door in, the cool breeze poured into the warm room, Ruyin tightened the quilt on her body and asked: "Fu Heng, are you back?" ”

A light was lit outside, and sure enough, it was Fu Heng who walked in, with a faint smell of wine on his body, Ruyin opened the tent and saw him, and said gently: "Go to the study and wash and sleep quickly, I don't need you to accompany me here, I will be solid when you go home." Ming'er has to go to court early in the morning, and be careful of headaches when drunk. ”

Fu Heng shook his head: "I can't drink alcohol when I patrol the garden, the smell of alcohol on my body is contaminated by the second brother, and he is drunk." ”

"The second master will go to the court tomorrow morning, I'm afraid I won't be able to go." Ruyin said this casually, and wanted to call someone to serve Fu Heng to change clothes and wash, so that he could fall asleep earlier, but Fu Heng said that he had spread all the people outside, and took Ruyin's hand and said, "There are some things I want to tell you, and I will also give you a wake-up call." ”

"It's so late......" Ruyin wanted to urge him to rest first, but it could be seen that Fu Heng looked nervous, so he vacated the place next to the bed for him to sit down, the husband and wife folded their hands together, Ruyin's hands warmed the cold hands of the person who returned from the cold wind, but listening to Fu Heng's words word by word, it gradually made her feel cold.

"I, I also have something to hide from you, only Sister Hongyan knows." Ruyin remembered that she had seen her second sister-in-law lose her temper like crazy, and threw the palace flower she sent out of the palace on behalf of Xian Guifei to the ground, and now that she thinks about it, is it really because it was something sent by Xian Guifei?

She explained, saying: "The second sister-in-law said that it was because the second master was raising a woman outside, and she couldn't get angry, so she begged me to give her face, and no one could tell her." At that time, I was uncomfortable, and you were not at home, so I inadvertently told Sister Hongyan, but neither of us mentioned it again after that, and she must have kept it a secret. She shouldn't have known, but it's actually ......"

It is a capital crime for a concubine to have a personal affair with a foreign minister, and the concubine is either dead or detained in the cold palace for the rest of her life, and the foreign minister may implicate the whole family, but they are rich and rich, but they are closely connected with the royal family.

Fu Heng said with a calm face: "Even if it is the wishful thinking of Concubine Xian, even if nothing has happened in these years, once it is revealed, it will be a big deal." How many people are staring at our Fucha family, and no one notices after so many years. Ruyin, I told you that I want you to have a number in your heart, you often enter the palace, in case the concubine entangles you......"

Ruyin asked in a low voice, "Do I want to tell Sister Hongyan?" ”
