The emperor's decision to get rid of Wu Liangfu was also appreciated in the court, and Fu Lin blamed himself for ascending the throne since the world was not governed, and he would sacrifice to heaven and earth, Taimiao, and Sheji in the first month, and express his sincere responsibility.

The courtiers were very pleased to see that the young emperor finally no longer relied on the eunuchs and had the determination to govern the world.

In the inner palace, Fulin has chosen a day to summon the concubines of the palace, no longer impetuous and irritable, and occasionally listen to them talk about things in the palace and in their hometown.

The emperor became gentle and kind, and gradually aroused the admiration of some young concubines for the emperor, and the harem became lively.

However, Fulin's heart is only in the Chengqian Palace, even if the palace has promised that Chang Zai is pregnant, and the imperial concubine has never come out and is not moved.

As soon as the wax moon passes, the first month is busy, and the peaceful years do not know how time passes, and it is the spring of the seventeenth year of Shunzhi in a blink of an eye.

With the blessing of the harem from time to time, Niu Hulu has promised to wait for the three to be pregnant with the dragon heir, the fifth elder brother and the sixth princess are gradually growing up, and there will be milk dolls born in the palace, and the relatives and nobles will no longer pester the queen mother to say that the emperor favors Dong E's family and affects the emperor's heir.

However, the imperial concubine has not come out, and it has become gossip in the end.

A few small promises who thought they were liked by the emperor, but were not happy, actually made a bad decision behind their backs, and it was rumored that the imperial concubine was hard, and the father and mother were the sons, and the palace spread in an uproar, which caused Fu Lin to be furious, and it was necessary to thoroughly investigate who was behind the back.

The emperor personally inquired, no one dared to slack off, and soon found out that it was a few small promises to make trouble, and Fulin wanted to demote them to concubines and drive them out of the palace, so frightened that their souls were scattered, so someone gave the idea to go to the Chengqian Palace to ask the imperial concubine.

In this way, several people knelt outside the gate of Chengqian Palace, crying together, and they couldn't get rid of the incense, Yuan Xi was alarmed, and went around to the gate of Chengqian Palace to see, and they cried again and begged Concubine Tong Niangniang to intercede with the emperor.

"If I spare you this time, others will feel that it is just a few words on the lips and will not get in the way." Yuan Xi said coldly, "In the future, everyone will talk nonsense, are there any rules in this palace?" ”

"Concubine Tong, we don't dare anymore, you are kind and kind, please beg the imperial concubine, beg the emperor." They cried and begged, knowing that once they left the palace, not only would their reputation be ruined, but they would also bring disaster to their families. From now on, their families will inevitably not be able to tolerate them, and they will have nowhere to go in this life, I am afraid that they can only live on the streets and starve to death.

"I plead with the imperial concubine for you today, who knows if it will become a joke in your mouth in the coming day." Yuan Xi was ruthless, and ordered Xiaoquanzi and Laiwang beside him, "Find a few more people, drag them away, don't cry and upset the imperial concubine." ”

A few small promises wailed, shouting and begging for help in the door, but at this moment, Tian Xiang came slowly with Jia Yin in her arms, and the thin and pale man stood under the door and said: "Go back, I will plead with the emperor, I hope you can wake up from now on and don't do it again." ”

This is the face of the imperial concubine, Yuan Xi just came to sing a black face, and did not stop or persuade, and when they left crying, they came forward to support Jia Yin, and said: "What's wrong with my sister these days, her complexion is getting worse and worse, what does the imperial doctor say?" ”

"It's not in the way, it's warm and cold, I'm greedy for the wind to blow." Jia Yin covered up, and was helped back to the bedroom by them, lying on the couch weakly.

"For my sister's illness, the emperor is also sad." Yuan Xi gently took off her coat for Jiayin, "The Queen Mother also often recites that when she recites the Buddha every day, she will definitely pray for her sister." ”

Jia Yin smiled: "I am a blessed person, but unfortunately my body is always not angry, everything in the world is good, and there is no blessing." ”

Yuan Xi said with a smile: "It's spring, it's warm, let the emperor take my sister out for a walk, the palace is stuffy and panicked, even if you go to Nanyuan to live for a while." If you are not in good health, let's take medicine to treat the disease, there is nothing to be afraid of, sister, don't think nonsense. ”

As she spoke, she took off her clothes for Jiayin, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the chest of her sister's underwear, which seemed to be wet in a small piece, not like it was wet, but like it was overflowing from it, and the position was just right......

Jia Yin herself was also aware of it, and hurriedly pulled the quilt to cover it, as if she had nothing to do, and said: "I also want to go out for a walk, in the first month, the emperor took me to Huanghua Mountain to pay tribute to the fourth elder brother, and I only stayed outside for one night, and I also felt very comfortable." But as an imperial concubine, I can't say such things, and I can't always run out, wouldn't it be so that other harems can also follow their thoughts. There are no rules in the palace, but it is not the same. ”

Yuan Xi was thinking about the strange thing in her heart, she only had such a scene in the days before she gave birth to Xuan Ye and was forcibly weaned, and often her clothes were wet.

At that time, Eniang invited a medicine woman who was good at this from outside the palace to help her wean, and Yuan Xi suffered a lot in the confinement and shed a lot of tears.

But the medicine woman told her that if it was not easy to take care of her life, the noble ladies who were not allowed to breastfeed themselves could easily leave a sick and almost incurable.

Could it be that Sister Jiayin ......

Although Jia Yin covered up her embarrassment, she saw a puzzled look in Yuan Xi's eyes, and she hesitated again and again, whether to explain to Yuan Xi that when Yuan Xi was about to leave, he stopped her.

"I asked my mother outside the palace, and the doctor outside said that most of them were caused by Mrs. Improper breastfeeding, and I knew what was going on." Jia Yin gently clutched her chest and said, "I've ...... I haven't served the emperor for a long time, and he knows that I am not in good health, and he doesn't force it, but I know in my heart that I can no longer let him see what I am now. ”

"Sister?" Yuan Xi was anxious, "Why don't you tell the imperial doctors, those imperial doctors left by the former Ming Dynasty have been taking care of women in the palace for decades, there must be a way, let them heal you, okay?" ”

"Yuan Xi ......" Jia Yin has a hurdle that she can't get over, "How do you want me to expose my breasts to a man other than my husband, not to mention, let people know that I have such a strange disease, and let the emperor know that my body has become ugly...... Yuan Xi, I don't want it, I don't want it to die. ”

Yuan Xi said with tears in her eyes: "Sister, the medicine woman my mother found for me, when I gave birth to Xuanye, she took care of me for weaning, although it hurt me to death, but she has a very good way, let her come to see how you are?" I promise, I promise she'll never say it. ”

Jia Yin looked at each other with teary eyes, speechless. The stepmother told her that the doctor outside said that there was no cure, and after she cried a lot during the memorial to the fourth elder brother and vented the pain in her heart, she decided to spend this last day peacefully.

However, tormented by repeated fever and severe pain, and seeing the ugly changes in his beautiful jade body, Jia Yin didn't want to be seen by Fu Lin no matter what, even if he died, he didn't want him to see it.

However, she didn't want to die, she fell in love with Fu Lin, wanted to live with him, she still had a young brother who didn't have a family, she ......

"Sister?" Yuan Xi saw that Jia Yin suddenly covered her chest, showing a painful expression, and asked in a panic, "How long has it been, how long have you been hiding it?" ”

Jia Yin struggled to ease up for a while, grabbed Yuan Xi's hand and said, "Promise me, don't tell the emperor, don't tell you." Yuan Xi, even if I die soon, let me remain in his heart as a perfect appearance, okay? I beg you. ”

Yuan Xi cried: "Sister, if you have three long and two short, the emperor ...... him."

Jia Yin's tears rained down: "But Yuan Xi, I can't help myself, and I can't help it." ”

Yuan Xi finally compromised, if it was herself, she would never want Fu Lin to see her ugly appearance.

But she couldn't figure out why there was such a rich and extreme life as Jiayin in this world, but there were many disasters and disasters, even if God didn't want her to live a long life, why didn't he take her life happily, but let her wither and wither inch by inch.

Yuan Xi thought that everything would get better and better, she really thought that all the misunderstandings and contradictions had passed.

A few days later, Yuan Xi was very reluctant because he was worried about Jiayin, and he served the Queen Mother in Cining Palace, and he also made frequent mistakes.

Yu'er was not a person who cared, but she was worried about whether something had happened to Yuan Xi, this Yuan Xi dropped the teacup in her hand in a daze, and instead of ordering the palace maid to wipe it, she took a handkerchief to wipe it in a panic.

"What's wrong with you?" Yu'er couldn't help but ask, "Is something going on at home?" ”

Yuan Xi shook his head blankly, but his eyes were full of helplessness, and Yu'er was even more inexplicable, and after a while, Yuan Xi relieved himself and said: "Queen Mother, E-Niang, she came to the palace to see me today, I want to go back first." ”

"Go ahead, take Xuan Ye from the study and let his grandmother take a good look." Yu'er instructed, "Bring back the new tea you got yesterday, and invite your mother to drink a cup." ”

"Yes." Yuan Xi agreed, and after ordering the palace maid to clean up the mess, he left in a panic.

Yu'er turned around and found Su Mala: "Go to the East Sixth Palace to see what's going on, don't be someone who is bullying her behind her back, Fu is coming to spoil the harem, but they are all active." ”
