Chapter 634: Fate
On this day, news came from Chengqian Palace that the imperial concubine had a fever and was slowly recovering.
But before Yu'er could send Yuan Xi to take a look, something else came, saying that the emperor was going to take the imperial concubine to Yong'an Temple to stay for a few days, so she was in a hurry to leave.
Su Mala persuaded Yu'er: "The emperor has been in turmoil these days, you can let him go and relax, and the slave will urge the people of Jingyunmen to move the court affairs over without delay." ”
Yu'er sighed: "I can't help him, does he stay?" This is not here to discuss with me, he is used to me on the island, but I am afraid that he will not remember that I am in Cining Palace. But it doesn't matter, he can do whatever he wants, but can he tell me that there are heavenly soldiers in Yong'an Temple, or there are heavenly generals who can fight for him? ”
Su Mala was speechless, and Yuan Xi and the queen didn't dare to speak out until the news came from Yong'an Temple that the imperial concubine had gone to the island safely.
"It's not good to blame me, it's okay to recite what sutras to offer to what Buddha all day long, he has the same kind of learning, if I say a few words to him, he may also tear down my Buddhist hall." Yu'er left angrily and went back to the bedroom alone, not wanting to see anyone for a while.
The queen pulled Yuan Xi and asked in a low voice: "Are the southerners really going to fight, will they hit Beijing City?" ”
Yuan Xi smiled bitterly: "No, Niangniang, you just have to sleep peacefully at night." Although they are difficult to deal with and have pestered me for more than ten years, we haven't let them fight for more than ten years, have we? ”
The queen held her heart and said, "I'm really worried, my heart is very unsteady." ”
Yuan Xi comforted a few words, and the queen went to the side hall to rest, Su Mala looked at the queen's back, and sighed to Yuan Xi without hesitation: "How can you always hide here?" ”
"Niangniang also has a last resort." Yuan Xi said.
Su Mala bowed, she also knew that for the imperial concubine to have a fever, the queen was affected again, the emperor blamed her for being the queen and didn't care about the affairs of the six palaces, although it was the emperor who appointed the imperial concubine to take charge of the six palaces, but why did the queen sit back and enjoy it, not to say help, not even greetings and thanks.
This sounds reasonable, but it doesn't make sense at all, everyone is confused, and they don't know what to do, the only thing they understand is that the imperial concubine is not good, and no one can think about it.
On Qionghua Island in the Beihai Sea, the autumn colors are getting thicker in August, Jiayin leans on the chaise longue, bathed in the sunshine of early autumn, watching the layers of forests dyed, watching the clouds rolling up and shu, it should be a comfortable moment, but the emperor who is worried about the government in his heart can't help but sigh.
Qia Fulin walked from behind, heard Jiayin sighing, and was depressed in his heart, not because Jiayin sighed, but because he couldn't win the battle, couldn't let the world be stable, couldn't let the country be peaceful, and couldn't let Jiayin enjoy their love without any worries.
"Your Majesty?" Jia Yin heard the incense and said, turned around to see the emperor, and tried to smile, "Your Majesty, you come here to see, the scenery is beautiful." ”
Fu Lin's heart warmed, strode forward, sat next to Jiayin, held her weak in his arms, looked at the mountains and rivers in the distance, and said: "After recuperating from illness and returning to the palace, slowly put down the affairs of the six palaces, I will order the queen to take over, she can't do it, so she will be assigned to the people below, even if one person does one thing, I have so many harems, I should do it." It's not good for me to impose on you knowing that you have no desire for a position of power. ”
"The emperor's original intention was to let the concubines come out of the sadness of the fourth elder brother, so that they could have something to enrich their lives." Jia Yin was empathetic and said thoughtfully, "As the emperor wishes, it is these trivial and tedious things that give the concubines the opportunity to put down the death of the fourth elder brother little by little, which is the emperor's merit." ”
Fu Lin was full of peace of mind and kissed Jia Yin's forehead: "If you want to get better, I will take you to see more beautiful mountains and rivers." ”
Jiayin was as tender as water, and Yingying looked at each other: "Your Majesty, I will be fine, and the country will be fine, don't worry too much." ”
Fu Lin said: "Since I have come to the island, I have to fast for a few days and pray for the fortune of the country. ”
Jia Yin gently advised: "The gods and Buddhas are just the protection of the soul, if they are really in charge of the world, what difference does the emperor ask for or not?" If the emperor is dedicated to the country and works hard to make the country prosperous, and the gods and Buddhas are naturally protected, your majesty, if you have time to chant and pray for blessings, it is better to discuss with the ministers. The concubines are here to recuperate and relax, and if they delay the affairs of the country because of this, they will be guilty of ten thousand deaths. ”
"Don't say that." Fu Lin pressed against Jia Yin's lips, "I won't let you say that. ”
At this time, Wu Liangfu came quietly and said, "Your Majesty, Master Xingsen ordered the servants to pass the word, and it is ready, please invite the emperor to enter the main hall." ”
Fu Lin said that he knew, and then said to Jia Yin: "I promise you that I will never delay the government, but since I said that I want to recite the scriptures, I can't deceive the Bodhisattva, and my heart is in awe after all." ”
"Yes." Nor shall it be hindered.
Fu Lin ordered Tian Xiang to help Niangniang go back to the meditation room to rest earlier, and after telling Jia Yin to take care, he took Wu Liangfu away, Jia Yin supported her body, looking at each other from a distance, until she could no longer see the emperor's figure.
"Miss, the emperor is really affectionate to you." Tian Xiang said, "You must take care of your body, Miss, after returning to the palace, don't carry everything on your shoulders, you have the heart and the strength, and people still say that you have power behind your back." ”
Jia Yin leaned softly on the back of the chair, exhaled slowly, and said gently: "Since I stepped into the Forbidden City, I have been a person of right and wrong, no matter what, some people say that I don't care anymore, maybe from the day Eniang died young, it doomed me to a bumpy fate." ”
In the next few days, Fulin fasted and prayed on the island, Jiayin recuperated according to the mountains and rivers, and the ministers came and went every day, and Fulin did not delay any government affairs, but he changed places to ascend to the court, changed places to approve and read the folds, and the civil and military officials had nothing to say.
But Zheng Chenggong is about to call, this is not a joke, let alone chanting Buddha and eating fast, gradually some ministers became frizzy, and even scolded those monks who served the emperor and worshiped the Buddha, to delay the national fortune.
The situation on the front line is becoming more and more urgent, Zheng Chenggong has gathered and recruited nearly 1,000 warships, once he lands, he will definitely be like a bamboo, and when the southern territory has fallen, he will definitely lead his troops to the capital.
These days, Yu'er doesn't enter the Buddha hall anymore, staring at the front line all day long, no longer caring about Fulin, but generously summoning ministers to inquire about the battle situation, discuss countermeasures, and even plan for the back road.
Yuan Xi waits on the side every day, always hearing some heart-pounding words, and he hasn't slept for several days.
When it was close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, there was no festive atmosphere in the palace, and only a few princes of Fujin quietly sent some gifts to the queen mother.
It was a drizzling day, extremely cold, and the dark clouds in the sky were heavy, which made people feel even more depressed.
When Yuan Xi was serving tea, she accidentally splashed her clothes, and the queen mother was discussing with the ministers, so she planned to go back and change her clothes.
"Brother?" Yuan Xi stepped forward, full of worry, "Why did you enter the palace." ”
But Tong Guogang was full of joy and flamboyance, took Yuan Xi's hand and said, "Come, there is good news, I want to tell the Queen Mother immediately." ”
The brother and sister came together, under the guidance of Yuan Xi, Tong Guogang walked straight into the Queen Mother's study, Yu'er and several ministers were stunned, Tong Guogang knelt down on one knee and said: "Queen Mother, great joy!" ”
The Tong family planted people in the south sent a military report that was faster than the imperial court's eight hundred miles, Tong Guogang immediately entered the palace to report the good news to the queen mother, who would have thought that Zheng Chenggong's ambition could not withstand the will of heaven.
Zheng Jun encountered hurricanes at sea, violent storms, and the waves turned into the sky, and they were not visible. The warships collided with each other and were overturned by the waves, capsizing and damaging, and they were unable to fight again.
In this natural disaster, Zheng Chenggong's six wives and concubines, the second son, the third son, and the fifth son were all drowned, and the soldiers, ships, and weapons suffered huge losses, and the brigade had retreated to Zhoushan.
Yu'er and several ministers looked at each other, they couldn't believe it, and they were even more worried that the information was fraudulent, if they relaxed and slacked off because of this, and fell for Zheng Chenggong's tricks, the Qing Dynasty would be over.
However, in the afternoon of this day, the 800-mile military report of the imperial court arrived, in addition to the news of the defeat of Zheng Chenggong's army, there was also the southern people affected by the hurricane, the torrential rain and the wind became a disaster, and the local yamen begged the imperial court to urgently help the grain and grass.
Naturally, these were sent to Yong'an Temple, Yu'er here, just heard about oral transmissions.
Fu Lin was overjoyed, and rushed to the back island with the military report, and saw Jiayin kneeling on the futon, and the thin people chanted together, praying for peace to heaven and earth.
So pious, so sacred, in the autumn wind and drizzle, it was actually blessed with tears in his eyes.
When Tian Xiang saw the emperor, she leaned over to tell the young lady, and Jia Yin turned around and smiled gently: "Your Majesty." ”
"Why are you prostrating here?" Fu Lin said distressedly, "The wind is strong and cold, and there is a drizzle, how can it be good to catch a cold again?" ”
"Your Majesty, Tian Xiang is holding an umbrella for me."
"Jia Yin, we won without a fight, Zheng Chenggong encountered a hurricane at sea, lost his troops, and even lost his women and children." Fulin said with tears in his eyes, "Jiayin, God will help us." ”
