161 Back to the palace (and updates.)

And Hongyan took off his big coat, revealing a silver-white winter robe, although the satin was embroidered with various flowers, but few people in the palace would wear white on weekdays, Hongyan was dressed like this, obviously still mourning Concubine Shouqi. The Emperor walked slowly, and finally noticed movement here.

Separated for a few months, seeing each other, without the excitement of reunion after a long absence, when they separated in May, Hongyan heard the emperor say that she was going to Shengjing in the summer, and at that time she left a sentence to the emperor: "The emperor will also take his concubines to see the scenery of various places." ”

"It's back, what good things did the emperor bring to his concubines?" She got up after saluting, and smiled softly and quietly, the person she was looking forward to had finally returned, and the words she said were just right to connect with what she had said when she had parted last time.

The emperor stepped forward a few steps, took off the big hat on his body and wrapped it around her, and turned his head to blame the red-faced cherry on the side: "If you want to serve the master, how can you ask the master to take care of you in turn." ”

Cherry said pitifully: "The emperor hasn't come for a long time, and he will train slaves and maids as soon as he comes." The little girl was clever and smart, and she was not afraid of the emperor, so she smiled sheepishly, and then pulled the little spirit up, "What are you doing in a daze, come with me." ”

Hongyan watched them run away, and had to tell Cherry: "You go back to the house, don't come out again." ”

Hongli couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with the cherry, I want you to take off your big coat to her." ”

"The emperor won't ask about the girl's family." Hongyan smiled, touched the emperor's hot big hand, and knew that he was not cold before he was relieved, so he pulled him back slowly, saying that since he came, he would go to ask Concubine Wen Hui to say goodbye, Hongli said, "I can't stay for a long time, after seeing you, and discussing the day of returning to the palace with the concubine, I will leave." Hongyan, it's really time to go back this time. ”

Hongyan was stunned, stopped, and saw that there were fine beads of sweat on the emperor's forehead, thinking that he was in a hurry on the way here, so he took out a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped it for him, while saying: "The concubine thought that she would not return to the palace until April next year, and she would be here to keep filial piety for the concubine for a year." ”

Hongli told her that it was the queen's intention to come today, and the queen was very harmonious with the queen mother at the moment, and she was really as close as a mother and daughter. Although she has been separated for so long, she doesn't care about a few more months or less, but the queen is so enthusiastic about arranging everything, Hongli doesn't want to let her down.

"The concubines listen to the emperor, and they have been in their minds for less than a year." Hongyan is very obedient, it makes no difference to her sooner or later, the reason why she didn't return to the palace after the death of Concubine Shouqi was because the concubine had instructions before she died, and Hongyan also wanted to fulfill her mourning for the concubine.

"After entering the palace, you can't dress so plain anymore." Hongli had to point out, "You know the rules of the palace." ”

"The clothes to be worn when returning to the palace have been prepared according to the identity of the concubine." Hongyan also has a serious expression, "It's just that the concubines used to be here, and it was the concubines who liked to see the young people bright and gorgeous, and the concubines wore the clothes of the concubines when they were young, and each of them was very luxurious, which is what the emperor saw in the few times." But after returning to the palace, the concubines can not encroach on the dignity of the mothers, and they must be low-key and humble in dressing. ”

Hongli was happy in his heart, in Hongyan's words, every word was looking forward to going back with him, but everything she made was so low-key and calm, and her love overflowed, and she couldn't help but hold people in her arms, Hongyan smiled on his chest: "You can't be so intimate when you go back to the Forbidden City, the emperor is holding it now, don't let go." ”

"I'm afraid that you don't want to go back, and I think I'm going to bother persuading you today." Hongli said, "Now I am at ease, who said that I can't be intimate after returning to the palace, it's just that I ...... here"

As he spoke, he cupped Hongyan's cheeks, as if he could no longer control his enthusiasm, and hesitated to restrain himself, but Hongyan stretched out his slender jade fingers, lightly touched his lips, and smiled coquettishly: "Your Majesty, Hongyan's wish has come true." ”

A few years have passed in a hurry, the promises of the past have become a reality, and the years of Yingtai are so peaceful that people can't feel that time is passing, but Concubine Shouqi is gone, Hongyan has grown up, and there will be a little life in the Forbidden City, everything is changing, the only thing that remains the same, and what also makes each other feel incredible, is the infatuated affection.

In the days when the emperor went to Shengjing, Hongyan and Concubine Wen Hui gradually calmed down the grief in their hearts, and in the face of the reality that was about to come, Concubine Wen Hui said to Hongyan, this time, she really became the emperor's woman, and for the emperor, the years-long "asking but not getting" is finally coming to an end, and I don't know what is waiting for her in the future, maybe as soon as she enters the deep palace, she will fall out of favor.

Hongyan's answer to the concubine and herself at that time was: "As long as Hongyan is still in love with the emperor, the concubine is just one of the emperor's life, love it or not, you have to live well." ”

Too cowardly to have it for fear of losing.

After that, Hongli saw Concubine Wen Hui, because he had already planned to sleep in the Jingling Imperial Concubine Garden on December 11, and set it on the 14th of the lunar month to take Concubine Wen Hui back to the palace.

After the emperor left, Hongyan came back to see the cherry, the little girl held the hand stove on the warm kang, Hongyan asked her if her stomach hurt, if there was any other place uncomfortable, the cherry denied it with a smile, Hongpuff's face was full of shyness, today is the day of her first period, she is no longer a child, she is a big girl.

"Sister." In private, Cherry's sister is still Hongyan's favorite to hear, she suddenly nestled into Hongyan's bosom, and said with a wicked smile, "I will look like you in the future, will I?" ”

Hongyan hurriedly pushed her away, smoothed the placket on her chest, and said angrily: "I only know that when we go back to the palace next month, there will be no more time for you to be unruly, calm down these days, don't wait to go back to the Forbidden City and feel uncomfortable." You're a big girl, you can't be beaten at every turn, it's a shame. ”

The cherry rolled in the quilt, revealing half of his face and said: "Xiao Lingzi and I just saw you and the emperor kissing, it's not us who should be restrained, it's my sister herself and Long Live Lord." ”

Hongyan was stunned for a moment, so she chased after her to beat her, but Cherry sat up seriously, and she was not afraid that Hongyan was going to fight, and said confidently: "Looking forward to returning to the palace, but looking forward to wearing it, sister rest assured, Cherry will protect you well, I promised the concubine Niangniang, I will protect you for the rest of my life." ”

Hongyan's eyes were hot, and he read softly: "For so many years, it seems like a dream." ”

However, after so many years, it is not like a dream for others. Since there is Wei Hongyan, whether she is in the Forbidden City or Yingtai, she has restrained the emperor's heart, and the emperor has people who can't ask for it, making Liugong Fandel colorless, and now I feel that it is better for her to come back steadily, and I am full of hope that once the emperor has it, it will no longer be rare.

Feng'an Shouqi Concubine Mausoleum is set in the eleventh day of the lunar month, that day at the same time issued a decree will be three days later to welcome Concubine Wen Hui back to the palace, and because of the promise of Wei's many years to take care of Shouqi Concubine meritorious, Jin Feng is always there, after returning to the palace, he will live in the west side hall of Yanxi Palace.

On the fourteenth day of the lunar month, Fu Heng was ordered to come to greet the concubine, and when they saw each other, they smiled slightly, and Fu Heng hurriedly said: "Take care of everything." ”

And Ruyin had already told Hongyan that Fu Heng was going to Shanxi after the New Year.

On this day, the palace was busy preparing to welcome the concubine back to the palace, the palace where Concubine Wen Hui used to live in Shoukang Palace had been renovated, and the room prepared for Hongyan in Yanxi Palace was all furnished by Qianya herself. Qianya is the first person in the Changchun Palace, which naturally represents the meaning of the queen, and the internal affairs office is very attentive, for fear that there will be a snubbing offense to the middle palace.

Everyone walked around the two places, the frame of the concubine had not yet arrived in the palace, the queen was waiting with the emperor in the Yangxin Palace, and only the concubine was alone in the Xianfu Palace.

Concubine Chun got up in the morning and showed signs of giving birth, but today is the day to welcome the concubine back to the palace, there is a stable woman in the Xianfu Palace, the news was sent to the front, the emperor only sent a message to her to take care, the queen sent Concubine Xian over to sit in the town, and she didn't care anymore.

The queen mother cared about the child in Concubine Chun's belly, but she finally returned to a harmonious and intimate relationship with her son and daughter-in-law, and naturally wanted to do something according to their wishes.

At the beginning, for the sake of popularity, she had an unpleasant quarrel with Concubine Shouqi, and there were rumors in the palace that the Queen Mother forced Concubine Shouqi away, and now that Concubine Wenhui has returned to the palace, she must be more dedicated. Even if there is not much age difference between them, the concubine is Kangxi's person after all, and she is her elder.

When Concubine Chun was desperate to give birth to a child, the emperor and queen were waiting in the Yangxin Palace, and the Queen Mother was waiting in Shoukang Palace. In the middle of the middle of the year, people kept coming to spread the news, saying where the frame party had gone, saying that the concubine and Wei Changzai were back, but only the few people around her were worried about giving birth to a child.

When Concubine Wen Hui returned to the Forbidden City safely, she was sent back to Shoukang Palace by the emperor and queen, and after she ascended to accept the bow of the younger generations, she stepped forward to salute the queen mother and the emperor.

The man who was forced away at the beginning came back in style.

The Queen Mother was polite to Hongyan in front of the concubine, in front of the emperor and the queen, and no one would mention the past.

And when the Queen Mother was about to say something, the news from Xianfu Palace finally came, saying that Concubine Chun gave birth to a little brother, and the mother and son were safe.
