MTL - Female Official In the East Palace-Chapter 62
At the beginning of this year, Kangxi held a birthday banquet for the Empress Dowager to celebrate the ancient and rare birthday. With the average age of the dynasty, the Empress Dowager's body is considered extremely tough.
Although the Empress Dowager's illness was urgent, after three days of diagnosis and treatment by the imperial doctor, the abdominal pain has been greatly improved.
But the prince was still very concerned about her diet, and worried that others would not be able to persuade the empress dowager, so he moved the daily breakfast and dinner to the Cining Palace and personally accompanied the empress dowager Dinner with the Queen Mother.
The third elder brother and the fourth elder brother have always followed behind the prince, and almost all meals are served in the Yuqing Palace. Now that the prince is in the Cining Palace, the two of them are also obsessed with the empress dowager and empress dowager. , stayed in the Cining Palace.
Of course, the main reason is that the third elder brother doesn't care that he is six years old, and smashes sweet words to the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager like a storm.
And their arrival, except for the two queen mothers, the happiest is the fifth prince, Yinqi, who looks out every day when the time comes, looking forward to the arrival of the brothers.
Prince Prince is very authoritative among the younger brothers. He asked a few people to look after the Empress Dowager together, and the younger brothers really stared at the Empress Dowager all the time.
The empress dowager's eating habits have been maintained for decades, how can it be easily changed? And now that she thinks she has recovered from her illness, the more people stop her, the more greedy she will be.
The prince and the third and fourth elder brothers still had to go back to study.
The fifth elder brother always remembers the prince's brother's instructions. After learning about it, he naturally wants to stop the empress dowager. Unfortunately, he was raised by the gentle empress dowager since he was a child. He is kind and honest, and talented At the age of four, of course it is not the opponent of the Empress Dowager.
Inexplicably, they even ate half a leg of lamb with the Empress Dowager.
"Fifth brother!" The third elder brother Yinzhi looked at the fifth elder brother Yinqi very sadly, "How can you not stand the temptation like this!"
The fifth brother bowed his head guiltily, "The Empress Dowager gave Yinqi a taste, it was delicious..."
The third brother nodded his forehead and said, "You are the prince, have you ever eaten something good?"
"Yin Qi is wrong." The fifth brother raised his hand guiltily, looked at the prince quietly, and whispered, "Brother the prince..."
Prince Yinren shook his head and said tolerantly, "I don't blame you."
"Really?" Brother Wu had a happy face.
"You did not hide it, and you told the truth, there is nothing wrong."
Brother Wu's face flushed with joy, "Brother Xie Prince."
"Nothing." After speaking, the prince stepped into the main hall of Cining Palace.
When the Empress Dowager saw several of their children come in, she said lovingly and lovingly: "The prince is here? Your madam has prepared your favorite snacks, come quickly."
Several elder brothers looked at the prince together, responded immediately, and sat beside him obediently.
"Yinren, why don't you eat?"
The prince bowed his hands, bowed and said frankly and solemnly: "The Empress Dowager Rong Yi, since she was sensible, Yinren demanded herself with 'self-restraint, prudence and self-discipline, goodness and sincerity', so what the Empress Dowager did today, I'm sorry I can't agree with you."
"Only one leg of lamb... I'm so old, and I don't have a few years left in my life, so I should just follow my heart." The Empress Dowager was rather helpless, "How can you be so serious, this child ?"
"It is not a trivial matter in Yinren's mind."
Prince Yinreng stood proudly in the hall like a bamboo, his eyes were clear and firm, and he did not mean to retreat in the slightest.
The Empress Dowager suddenly saw the shadow of Empress Renxiao from him.
"The Queen Mother?"
The Empress Dowager regained her senses. Seeing the worry in the prince's eyes, she compromised: "What Yinren said is very true. It is true that you shouldn't lose self-control because of old age."
Prince didn't think it would be so easy to talk to the Empress Dowager, but he quickly reacted and bowed: "The Empress Dowager is sensible."
During dinner, the prince brought the third elder brother and the fourth elder elder brother to accompany the queen dowager and the empress dowager together.
Yinren made a big cloak, and you will take it back with you later."
If it's just to get the cloak, the elder brothers can take them away with so many people around them, presumably the Empress Dowager has something to say.
Su Rong Xin responded directly: "Yes, the Empress Dowager."
When the prince and other princes left, the queen mother walked to the corridor, looked at the red clouds outside the palace wall, and suddenly asked, "Empress Renxiao, how many years have you been away?"
Rong Xin was silent, then replied: "Back to the Empress Dowager, it has been more than eight years since thirteen years."
"Eight years..." The Empress Dowager said leisurely, "My memory is getting worse and worse, and today I suddenly discovered that the voice, face and smile of her and Empress Xiaozhao are still in front of me, but I have never forgotten it. …”
"Minions also remember." Rong Xin even thought that even if Nemin faded in everyone's memory one day, she would not forget it.
Color is added, and it becomes tarnish.
The Empress Dowager sighed with relief: "Yinren really looks like Xuan Ye and Nemin."
Prince Yinreng has all the qualities that a prince should have, and is more benevolent and magnanimous like a benevolent queen. At the same time, he is not lacking in mind and courage...
The prince who grew up like this, why worry about the future of the Qing Dynasty?
Thinking about this, the Empress Dowager turned her cane, faced Rong Xin, and asked, "Su Ma has always told me that your eyes can see your heart. All these years, I have only seen Is there any side to your single-minded love for the prince?"
"The slaves are stupid and don't understand the meaning of the empress dowager."
The Empress Dowager went straight to the point: "Look up and look at Aijia, what do you want? Or what do you want from the crown prince?"
Rong Xin slowly raised her head and looked at the Empress Dowager.
This most honorable woman in the Qing Dynasty, even though she is old, still has a bright eye, and her old age does not hide her wisdom.
She is asking Rong Xin what she wants to never bring a bad prince...
"The slave is cheeky and wants to ask his beloved great-grandmother a chance for the prince."
The Empress Dowager was slightly surprised, and after a while, she asked, "What chance?"
Rong Xin said very cautiously: "The prince and the eldest brother are only young now, and there are factions in the court. Maybe the servants worry too much. No matter what happens, the prince will have a chance to make a plea."
The Empress Dowager gradually turned cold with her words, "Do you think so, do you doubt the emperor's fatherly love for the prince?"
"The servant does not doubt." Rong Xin immediately denied it, "It's just that since you asked the servant, you must want to hear the servant tell the truth, the servant only has one question, the emperor has a last resort, let alone others. ?"
The Empress Dowager was silent, turned and looked forward quietly.
Rong Xin lowered her eyes, she couldn't ask for more, in fact, the Empress Dowager couldn't control decades later, she just made her more different from ordinary palace servants. Just some benefits.
"Yes." Rong Xin bowed and resigned, and went straight to find Su Ma Lagu.
She stayed at Suma Lagu's place for a while, and not only got the prince's cloak, but also the hand-written Buddhist scriptures that Suma Lagu gave her, which was translated into Manchu, Mongolian and Chinese.
"I remember you telling me that the first few pages of your Buddhist scripture have been blurred, and it's been many years." Sumala Gu smiled gently, "I copied it for you. One."
I was so moved that I didn't dare to move, but Rong Xin had to thank him: "Thank you, Mommy, I will keep it well."
"You child is just too nostalgic."
Rong Xin said naturally: "The left and right have been memorized, it doesn't matter if there are handwritings, so I just ignored it."
"Indeed, the Buddha is in the heart, and the book without words will not hinder it."
Rong Xin smiled, she was the only one who knew of her guilty conscience.
And when she left, just after the dark, Kangxi's concubines left the Cining Palace and returned to the palace.
Concubine Shu's sedan chair had already set off, so Rong Xin only said hello to Concubine Niu Hulu and Concubine Hui, Yi, Rong, Xuan Concubine and De Concubine.
Concubine Niu Hulu stopped the sedan chair and wanted to chat with Rong Xin, and then taught the rest of the concubines to go first.
The three concubines Hui, Yi, and Rong were all very polite to Rong Xin. Among them, Concubine Rong was the most enthusiastic: "If you have time, remember to come and sit with me."
Concubine Hui glanced at her, and said somewhat rudely: "Concubine Rong, I remember that two young concubines entered your Zhongcui Palace? It's not enough to chat with ?"
Before Concubine Rong spoke, Concubine Yi smiled and said, "It's good that there are more people, and it's easy to ask someone to play cards with you."
Concubine Rong gave a "sniff", showing no respect to Concubine Yi.
Concubine Hui then pointed out, "Concubine Rong is indeed not as good as Concubine Yi, you will win over people, and Yikun Palace can't keep people."
The three concubines were directly choking each other, De Concubine lowered her eyes and said nothing, while Xuan Concubine looked at them in surprise, apparently not expecting the three concubines to be so indifferent The face of a high-ranking concubine.
Concubine Niu Hulu did not intervene in the dispute between the three, and said to Rong Xin, "Miss Rong, let's go first."
Rong Xin nodded, bowed slightly towards Concubine Hui and the others, and left here beside the sedan chair of Concubine Niu Hulu.
."
"With your temperament, you must be unable to hold back and ask Empress Xiaozhao?"
"Yes." Concubine Niu Hulu nodded and said cheerfully, "I asked my sister, she taught me not to mix, saying that they have always been like this."
Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui often do not deal with each other when they meet, but the two do not allow others to tell each other half a point. Others have a long memory and will not provoke them. , is not afraid of the two.
Rong Xin couldn't help laughing, shook his head, skipped the three, and asked, "Prince Concubine, I haven't seen the noble Hesheli for a long time, how are you doing?"
"Everything is fine." Concubine Niu Hulu smiled more and more sincerely, "The emperor is sympathetic, Changchun Palace is now just the two of us and the eighth brother, very comfortable."
Rong Xin heard this and said, "That's fine..."
"I was thinking about when I would meet Lady Rong. The grapes I planted in Changchun Palace in the spring with sister Keqi were ripe, but the number was very small, except for the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager If you don't dislike it, you may be willing to pick and play with us."
Concubine Niu Hulu followed the temperament of Empress Xiaozhao, and only managed to do it in the past two years. This dish was actually grown by the nobles of Hesheli.
Rong Xin heard the deep meaning of her words, and said: "The imperial concubine and the little master planted it themselves. I will not refuse. If the prince has time, I will go and disturb them together."
"So I'll wait."
The two separated, Rong Xin returned to Yuqing Palace, placed the cloak, and told the prince about the invitation of Concubine Niu Hulu.
The prince looked away from the book, shook his head and said, "Auntie, let's take the third and fourth brothers to play, it is inconvenient for me to get close to the nobles of Hesheli."
Rong Xin did not force, "Okay."
The prince noticed the thick Buddhist scripture in her hand and asked, "This is?"
Rong Xin lifted it up and smiled helplessly: "You need something treasured."
