Chapter 524: Concubine Xian enters the palace
Fu Lin hid this faint loss in his heart, and even Wu Liangfu and Yue Le never confided half a word.
Throughout the summer, although Dong Jiayin did not enter the palace, the imperial concubine often saw each other, either in Tianning Temple or in Tang Ruowang's church, where Tang Ruowang explained the teachings of Catholicism to them, and Jiayin told the emperor about Buddhism in her eyes.
It's just that the people Fu Lin sees always have the same expression, neither happy nor angry, and never really smiles.
Fortunately, Jia Yin did not reject him, nor did he contradict him, and occasionally had a heated discussion about a certain court matter, but it was just a little bit worse.
Fu Lin can only comfort himself, because they are not yet husband and wife, and even if they see each other frequently, they are just like close friends.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the scorching heat comes to an end, and the morning wind gradually cools down.
The day when Concubine Xian entered the palace, according to Qintian's monitoring and calculation, was set on August 25, which is said to be the most suitable day for marriage in this whole year.
This kind of superstition is spreading, Yuan Xi doesn't believe it, God knows what kind of day she entered the palace, and now everything is fine.
However, every year to August, the court and the royal family have several major things to do, Taizu Taizong's death day is in August, so many years has been Bogol instead of the emperor to return to Shengjing to worship the ancestors, who should be sent this year, the palace and the palace are discussing.
On this day, Fu Lin came to Cining Palace to ask for peace, the queen and Yuan Xi were on the side, and the queen guessed that the emperor was going to talk about government affairs, so she planned to leave with Yuan Xi.
Fu Lin asked them to stay, and said: "I want to serve E-Niang and go back to Shengjing to worship my ancestors, the Qing Dynasty has been in the customs for 12 years, E-Niang has never been back in the capital, and now that the government is stable, I want to serve E-Niang to go back and have a look." ”
When Dolgon was still there, Fulin had returned to Shengjing once, and Yu'er stayed in the capital, in order to prevent Dolgon from doing anything wrong to him, he also pretended to be sick, and in retrospect, he was really sorry for him.
"The emperor and I have left Beijing, after all, it is not appropriate, the establishment of imperial power can be worthy of thirteen years, it is not possible to sit back and relax, there must be one person left." Yu'er said, "If the emperor wants me to go back to see my hometown, it is better to let the queen and her go with me, and then let your sisters go to Shengjing to meet me, which will be more lively." ”
Fu Lin said: "But...... Erchen wants to serve Eniang and walk together. ”
The queen and Yuan Xi didn't dare to interject, they looked at each other, and they both understood that they had something to say to each other, why did the emperor have to travel in August again, in time to return to Beijing in time for the twenty-fifth to welcome his sweetheart into the palace?
Yu'er couldn't figure out what Fulin meant, so she said, "The emperor really wants to go?" ”
Fu Lin bowed: "Erchen...... I wanted to go to the emperor to pay tribute to Amma, but I didn't hide it from my mother that John Tang was the same age as Amma, and his sons sometimes looked at him and always wondered if Ama was still alive, would the Qing Dynasty be better now. Every time I think about it, I feel very guilty in my heart, although I have no shame to see the ancestors and ancestors, but if I can't even do filial piety, how should my sons and daughters subdue the world. ”
"Then Your Majesty, go by yourself." Yu'er said, "E-Niang is not unwilling to walk with you, it is the capital that there is really no one less person who can call the shots, I understand the emperor's intentions, and I hope you don't misunderstand what I mean." ”
Fu Lin hurriedly said: "It's Erchen who is too self-righteous, thinking that the court has been able to settle down, how could he misunderstand Eniang." ”
Yu'er said: "So who goes and who stays, what does the emperor think?" ”
Yuan Xi and the queen looked at each other, and she secretly wondered in her heart whether the emperor wanted to separate the people so that he could quietly bring Sister Jiayin into the palace, or whether he wanted to go to Shengjing alone and tell the ancestors that he was going to marry the woman he loved.
Of course, the latter is too exaggerated, and the emperor will not be ecstatic to this extent.
In August of this year, the emperor personally returned to Shengjing to pay tribute to the ancestors, the queen mother and the concubine did not accompany him, and the Mid-Autumn Festival could not be reunited, and when the holy car returned to the capital, it was August 21.
Yuan Xi occasionally heard a word or two from Su Mala and the Queen Mother in Cining Palace, and only knew that the emperor was going to worship his ancestors, and he didn't seem to have seen Meng Guqing with his own eyes.
The Queen Mother said that she really thought that Fu Lin was going to see Meng Guqing, but judging from the words passed back from the people who followed the emperor, he did not do it.
In addition, the Queen Mother and Su Mala also said something else, Yuan Xi couldn't hear it, although she was curious in her heart, she could only warn herself that it had nothing to do with her.
However, on August 22, the movement in the Chengqian Palace made her seem to understand something.
On that day, the florists in the Forbidden City gathered in the Chengqian Palace and changed almost all the flowers and plants in the Chengqian Palace.
On the 24th, the day before Concubine Xian officially entered the palace, Yuan Xi took the palace maid to Chengqian Palace to clean up, she carefully looked at the grass and trees in the flower garden, and understood everything.
It was day and night, the emperor stayed in Jingren Palace, and Yuan Xi saw the black mud embedded very deeply in the nails of Fulin, and he had to wait for the nails to grow before he could push them out.
"Yuan Xi, I haven't promoted you to your position, because I don't want to be outside, I keep my eyes on Xuan Ye." Fu Lin said, "Don't feel uncomfortable in your heart. ”
Yuan Xi carefully cut the emperor's nails, and said with a smile: "The emperor should not say such things to his concubines, he will wronged me." What kind of person I am, what kind of emperor is in my heart, after so many years, you still don't know. ”
"I just know that I feel wronged by you." Fu Lin said, "You are so good. ”
Yuan Xi smiled sweetly, ordered the pomegranate to take away the cut nails, and pushed Fu Lin to lie down and said: "Tomorrow is a good day for the emperor, and it is also a good day for Sister Jiayin, the emperor rested early, Ming'er is waiting for you to disperse, and Sister Jiayin is waiting for you in the Chengqian Palace." ”
Fu Lin covered Yuan Xi's hand in his heart, the two looked at each other speechlessly, for a long time, Fu Lin was sleepy, and finally closed his eyes with peace of mind.
That whole night, Yuan Xi didn't sleep, she didn't know if she could have such a day in the future, maybe it was really the last day, even if it was a quarter of an hour longer, she wanted to feel the breath of Fulin more.
Her stupidity towards the emperor is probably the same as the emperor's obsession with Dong Ejiayin, a love word, too heavy.
On August 25, the virtuous concubine Dong E, who was burdened with countless speculations, curiosities and glory, finally entered the palace.
The canonization ceremony was presided over by the queen, and when Jiayin entered the palace to be sealed, Fulin was still dealing with government affairs in the Qianqing Palace.
Although his heart had already flown to Chengqian Palace, he couldn't wait to see Jiayin as soon as possible, but he tried his best to show calmness and indifference in front of the minister, and he also knew that he had to protect Jiayin.
When the ministers finally dispersed, Wu Liangfu came to the emperor with great eyes and told the emperor: "Concubine Xian Niangniang has just entered Cining Palace and saluted the Queen Mother. ”
Fu Lin rubbed his hands, full of uneasiness: "Wu Liangfu, you said Eniang, will you like her?" ”
