Chapter 200: Meeting Concubine De
In the second half of the year, the situation in the west was tense, and there were 800 miles of urgent reports every day, and Kangxi was so anxious that he couldn't sleep at night.
The previous dynasty was busy, the harem was not allowed to be involved in politics, Concubine De took care of the New Year's banquet, the palace people were newly dressed, and they had to pick up various palaces to prepare for sacrifices, and their feet did not touch the ground, not at all more leisurely than Kangxi.
Self-amnesia, every time I enter the palace to ask Concubine De to be extremely cautious, most of them are accompanied by the fourteenth, recently the fourteenth day was called into the Qianqing Palace, there is no leisure, I have to be brave enough to enter the palace.
After two bows and six bows, Concubine De sat on the kang with a big pillow of forging green, a palace maid knelt behind her back and beat her back, and then knelt on the pedal to beat her legs, she couldn't hide her haggardness, and said, "Get up." The grandmother beside me had already moved to the big chair and invited me to sit down, and Concubine De said, "Are you feeling better?" She was rarely kind and pleasant, I was flattered, and said with a smile: "E-niang is relieved, I am already much better." Concubine De bowed her head and said, "I'll have dinner here today and then go back." "What kind of wind is this blowing?
You're going to knock me out! I got up and curtled my knees, and said respectfully, "Thank you for your grace." "After a while, Sifujin also came to ask Concubine De to say goodbye, she saw me and said with a smile: "Are you better?" I've always wanted to go to the house to see you, but I can't find space, Ergege is sick, I can't stop crying at night, and I can't sleep. I don't know what the relationship with her was before, but I was afraid and panicked about the fourth master in my heart, and I was also very polite to the fourth blessing, and said: "It's okay, the fourth sister-in-law Xie cares." Sifujin smiled and said: "Hey, they all said that after the fourteenth Fujin came back from Gansu, he changed as a person, and he saw it today, and it was indeed true." He patted the back of my hand lightly, and said with a pleasant face: "We are our own family, you don't need to be polite, I still like your kind appearance before." Concubine De waved her hand to let the palace people retreat, got up and said, "You guys gossip, you all have dinner in the palace and then go back." Someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came, and I went to the side hall to do something. Sifu Jin and I hurriedly said: "E-niang just go, you don't have to greet us." "At one time, Sifujin went to the back hall to wash his hands, and I was sitting alone in the warm pavilion eating fruit, and suddenly a woman in a palace robe wearing a blue color decorated with small orchids stepped forward, stared at a pair of pretty apricot eyes, and said, "You really have amnesia?" "I know her, she is the side Fu Jin Nian who entered the palace with Sifu Jin, the younger sister of Nian Qianyao.
They are all official eunuch families, and I was polite to her, and said with a smile: "Yes, you are a young man." Ailian's face tightened, and she said, "How do you know who I am?" Seeing her frightened look, I suddenly became suspicious in my heart, and said a little defensively: "I heard Mama call you just now." Ai Lian breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled: "I thought you remembered me." I said: "It's not too late to know now" As he was saying, Sifujin turned back from the back hall and said through the openwork window: "Fourteen Fujin, you can come here." "Ai Lian and Si Fu Jin are also friends and foes, and they have their own handles with each other.
Since the fourth master knew Ailian's fake identity and in turn let Ailian spy on Nian Qianyao, Ailian's status in Prince Yong's mansion has been increasing day by day.
And Ai Lian will also seize the opportunity to take advantage of this to show goodwill to Sifujin, who is afraid of the newly entered Li family, and the two will soon reach an alliance.
But the alliance is an alliance, and only they know what the two have in their hearts. Sifu Jin was very unhappy when he saw the relationship between Ai Lian and Rose Pan, so he deliberately called Rose and set up a master's shelf in front of Ai Lian.
Ai Lian understands very well, but the coming day is long, and she is very patient to wait. Walking to the blue yarn cupboard, Sifujin pointed to a pot of begonia bonsai carved with topaz carved enamel leaves, and said with a smile: "I have given you exactly the same as this one before, do you have a little impression?" "The bonsai is half a person high, but I am afraid that a whole piece of jade is used, even the potted flowers and branches are multiplied, all carved with topaz, only a little enamel is used, the color is round, rich and magnificent.
I was a little embarrassed, very rude, and said, "I'll go back to the house, I'll let the girl come out of the warehouse and show me, maybe I can really remember something." Sifujin glanced at the outer hall with both eyes, but his mouth spoke to me, and said: "Don't force it if you can't think of it, everything has cause and effect, don't be anxious." I followed her gaze, but it was the Nian side Fujin who had just spoken to me staring at us through the flower window, smiling rather than smiling.
Somehow, I just felt that her eyes were like a basin of ice water poured from her head, and she shivered with cold.
After dinner, our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law gossiped around the warm pavilion, and when it came to Ah Xing's family affairs, Sifujin also said: "The big Gege in my house is also old enough, and when the Li family didn't enter the mansion before, I still wanted to arrange a marriage for her." But now the Li family doesn't let me interfere, and Da Gege has a dislike for me, so he only listens to her aunt's words, and the fourth master doesn't care about this, but makes me embarrassed. "She deliberately said it to Concubine De, the serious master was bullied in the house, in Concubine De's opinion, this is the fourth master's fault.
Although I don't remember the past, I also feel that Sifujin is inappropriate. In fact, why did Sifujin want to complain in front of Concubine De?
It's just that there's really no way out. She hadn't talked to the fourth master for three or four months, and she hadn't seen the fourth master for most of the month.
The fourth master is either in the Li family's house, or in the Song Gege house, no matter how bad it is, it is also in the Manbian Fujin and Nian side Fujin houses, even if he enters the house of Sifujin, he will leave after drinking tea, and he will not even use the meal, let alone stay overnight.
Concubine De was really angry and said: "The Li family died before, I saw that Yinzhen was sad and sad, so I promised him to let the Li family's sister enter the palace. I didn't expect it to happen to such a point, Ming'er let the Li family enter the palace, I want to see what kind of goods it is" After a pause, he looked at Sifujin and said: "You yourself have to fight for your own strength, with her Li family's favor, you should be beaten, and you should be scolded." In this matter, you have to learn from the fourteenth daughter-in-law" Concubine De rarely praised me, I couldn't help but straighten my waist, Concubine De looked in her eyes, the words changed, and said: "Actually, there is nothing to learn, in the end, the old fourteen infatuation" There was laughter through the door curtain, and said: "Who is infatuated?" Su embroidered a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren pattern brocade curtain provoked, sideways into a person, wearing a bright yellow brother robe, full of smiles, after glaring at me twice, then a thousand autumns, said: "Yinzhen to E-Niang to say goodbye, E-niang has a good appetite today?" When Concubine De saw her son, she immediately smiled and said, "Hurry up, I have a good appetite, it's hard for you to remember." After a pause, he said: "Why didn't you wrap your cloak, it's cold outside, and it's cold when you blow the wind carefully." Look at your nose, it's all red. Fourteen got up and said, "My son is guilty, let E-Niang worry about it." The two mothers and sons were intimate, and then said: "Huang Ama didn't sleep all night last night, and just took a nap, so let our brothers go back to the house to rest, and then enter the palace at night." Concubine De nodded, compared to Kangxi, she obviously felt more sorry for her youngest son, and advised: "The emperor handles political affairs all night, which is really not good for the body." You also have to know that you are lazy, as soon as you have free time, you will find a place to rest, and if you can't do it, you will come to Yonghe Palace. Fourteen smiled and said: "In the middle of the night, my son doesn't want to disturb Eniang's sleep." Concubine De said: "You just have to come, Eniang will make you supper." He was worried that he would enter the palace at night, and now he had to hurry back to the house to rest, so he said: "I know that you are here to bring your daughter-in-law back, okay, I am also tired, so kneel down." "I'll get up and kneel down with Fourteen to Concubine De.
At the bottom of the corridor, there was indeed a little sunlight in the sky that broke through the clouds and fell on people. Minqiu took the cloak and tied it for me, and then took a small hand stove with a new charcoal fire and put it in my cuff.
The heat I brought out of the house was still there, and I felt warm and comfortable. Slowly walked out of the palace along the Yongdao with Sifujin, and the fourteenth Xu was tired, and he didn't speak all the way, silently.
I deliberately teased him and said, "What's wrong?" Did the emperor teach you a lesson? Fourteen smiled reluctantly and said, "No." "In the way of Sifujin, I was embarrassed to coax him, so I said, "What did you eat for dinner?" Can I make you seafood fried rice at night? Fourteen leaned into my ear and whispered, "I'm fine, let's go back to the house if I have something to say." I knew that it was because of Sifujin's presence, so I smiled at him and said I knew.
Seeing the two of us flirting with each other, Sifujin muttered softly, thinking about the fourth master, and felt a little unhappy, so he stopped provoking the conversation.
Soon I left the palace and said goodbye to Sifujin, and I took the carriage back to the house with Fourteen. Ai Lian hadn't seen her for half a year, and she bumped into her by chance today, and her chest was like a deer bumping around, nervous and throbbing.
When he talked to Sifujin, she wanted to interject several times, and she could say anything, as long as she could talk to him, hear his voice, and see his gaze on her, she was satisfied.
But the fourteenth master didn't even give him a chance to speak. He whispered in the young lady's ear, with a gentle expression, as if she did not exist, when everyone was air.
She was angry, jealous, and helpless, and there was a fire burning in her heart, and she watched their carriage go far away, and she was still stunned, unable to move her steps, and lost her soul.
Sifu Jin saw that something was wrong with her and thought she was uncomfortable, so he asked, "What's wrong?" Isn't it cold? Ai Lian suddenly came back to her senses, fixed her expression, and said, "I'm fine." Her tone was cold, there was no sense of deference and restraint at all, Sifu Jin was already a little sullen, and after listening to her words, he felt even more unhappy, flicked his sleeves, and said, "Whatever you want." With that, he got into the carriage by himself.
When they got home, they both changed their clothes, put on civilian robes, and lazily leaned on the ondol. I moved the kang table, moved to Fourteen's side, and said, "What's wrong?" I see that your face was fine when you entered the warm pavilion, why was it not good when you went out? Is there anyone who is upsetting you? Fourteen stretched out an arm and rested it behind my neck and sighed softly.
