Shu Jin, who was young and strong after all, half pulled and half pulled, forcefully helped Empress Dowager Wu Ya out.
This Queen Mother, that old face, is just like cannibalism!
"Farewell to the Queen Mother!" The concubines stood up one after another and paid homage together.
The back hall of Wanfang Anhe was also magnificent. Shu Jin helped the aggressive old queen to sit on the Arhat couch, and then couldn't help but said: "Why is the queen mother doing this? After all, the Fourteenth Master now has enough food and clothing.
.Much better than Yunhu."
Empress Dowager Wu Ya was choked and glared at Geng again, "You are becoming more and more capable as a noble concubine! Not only do you keep the emperor's harem safe and smooth, but you can even point out important matters in the court.
!”
Shu Jin hurriedly said: "I don't dare to say this as a concubine!" She was not afraid even if she shouted this out loud. Yongzheng made it clear that he wanted her to comfort the Queen Mother, and comforting the Queen Mother would at least involve the previous dynasty. Yongzheng himself knew it well.
He said he didn't dare to take it seriously, but he spoke and smiled without any confusion.
"I know that you feel uncomfortable, but... Your Majesty is the Emperor, and no one can change what the Emperor has decided." Shu Jin was telling Empress Dowager Wuya to give up.
But regarding her most cherished youngest son, even if Queen Mother Wuya could endure it for a while, how could she endure it for the rest of her life?
Empress Dowager Wu Ya took a deep look at Geng. She really didn't expect that Geng would be the one in charge of the Sixth Palace in the end!
Wu Yashi took a deep breath, "It is true that the Ai family underestimated you before." She squinted her eyes, suddenly changed her expression, and said with a smile: "Although you carried the Han military flag, your background is lower than Xi after all.
The concubine is a match."
After saying that, Wu Yashi paused and said, "If you want the fifth elder brother to be the prince, it will not be easy."
Shu Jin suppressed his smile and said seriously: "The Queen Mother does not need to say this." - She naturally knew what the Queen Mother Wuya wanted to do, but - a fool formed an alliance with the Queen Mother Wuya! The emperor made it clear that he disliked this mother-in-law in every possible way.
Take all precautions, if anyone colludes with her, the game will be over!
Empress Dowager Wu Ya hummed, "The Ai family is still the queen mother after all. No matter what the emperor does, he must respect the Ai family! And the Wuya family behind the Ai family——"
"The Queen Mother!" Shu Jin was really impatient and simply interrupted the Queen Mother Wu Ya's boasting, "Please calm down."
Queen Mother Wuya's face darkened. The Ai family couldn't believe that this Geng family didn't care about the reserve!
Shu Jin said calmly: "Not to mention that Hong Zhou is still young, how can the harem comment on such a big matter as the reserve? If you get involved and anger the emperor, you will only get the bad fruit in the end.
The Fourteenth Master."
Damn it, Yongzheng has already killed Yunhu to scare the monkeys, why are you still ready to make a move! You are actually thinking about the reserve position!
This Queen Mother Wuya really dares to think!
Empress Dowager Wu Ya choked. Of course she had no intention of giving any substantial benefits to Geng and the fifth elder brother. She was only thinking about the future. Her son was already so unfilial, so naturally she could only raise a filial grandson.
Shu Jin was blessed and said, "Only the Emperor can decide whether Hong Zhou is blessed. I also ask the Queen Mother not to say such words again in the future. I will just pretend that I didn't hear your words today and I will retire."
Shu Jin neatly left Wanfang Anhe. At this moment, the emperor and his concubines had already dispersed. Wanfang Anhe, which was bustling just now, now stood quietly in the water, with the bright moon hanging high and everything quiet.
Shu Jin didn't know that the inner conversations she had with Empress Dowager Wuya were sent to Yongzheng's ears word by word.
Yinzhen pondered for a long time. Whether Geng was cautious or she really had no such ambition, it was obvious that she was a peaceful person.
"Put it in Danning Hall."
Today's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet ended so early. Shu Jin was not sleepy yet, so he sat on the verandah outside the palace and looked up at the round moon. It was big and round, really like a moon cake.
The starry sky in this era is so clear and the moon is particularly bright.
The night in Danning Hall was also silent. The eldest palace maid came out with milk tea and a few exquisite snacks, and said: "Your Majesty, the fifth elder brother has gone back to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion to rest."
Shu Jin nodded and took a sip of the warm and sweet milk tea. Tonight is the night of the 15th... According to the usual rules, Yongzheng should go to the Queen.
It's just that the queen has been "suffering from a serious disease" for a long time, so Yongzheng naturally wouldn't go to Luoyue Kaiyun, but it's not easy to go to other concubines. It seems that he, an old man, is alone now.
"By the way, have you sent the Mid-Autumn Festival of Moon Kaiyun?" Shu Jin asked casually.
"Don't worry, since I have made the decision, no one has ever deducted anything from me." Hanshuang said quickly, and then muttered, "The one at Luoyue Kaiyun used to be too kind to you, so why should I bother you?"
Shu Jin said calmly: "She is still a queen after all."
Although the Queen is not a good person, there is no deep hatred towards her. Besides...how many women in the palace are not pitiable?
Today in Wanfang Anhe, Concubine Dun's drunken state also clearly revealed a bit of sadness.
For a concubine who has lost her child and will never be able to conceive again, even if she is favored now, how will her situation be better in the future? I'm afraid that Concubine Atsushi is also worried about the future, which is why she is so sad, right?
Therefore, Shu Jin does not want to embarrass anyone.
The night is endless, and the bright red palace lanterns illuminate several osmanthus trees under the corridor, including golden osmanthus and red osmanthus, sending wisps of delicate fragrance in the gentle night breeze.
"After a while, I will pick all the golden osmanthus, make osmanthus cakes, and brew osmanthus wine. They are all very good." Shu Jin couldn't help but think of the osmanthus wine at today's banquet. It was indeed mellow. But the osmanthus at the banquet was delicious.
The wine has been stored in the cellar for ten years. It is a high-quality tribute from Bashu, so it is certainly not bad.
At this time, the cool night breeze carried a deep man's voice: "If you like it, ask me to bring you two more bottles of osmanthus wine. It's still early!"
Shu Jin couldn't help but be excited, Wu Cao! Why is the Dog Emperor here?
She hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Why did the Emperor come so suddenly? I'm so far away to greet you!"
Seeing Geng's panic, Yinzhen couldn't help laughing, so he quickly stepped forward and helped her up personally.
Shu Jin: Wucao! If you have something to say, don’t move your hands!
There was a faint smile on Yinzhen's eyebrows, "I had nothing to do at night, so I went out for a walk, and unexpectedly I arrived at Danning Hall."
He raised his eyes and glanced at the plaque of Danning Hall, which was shrouded in moonlight, somewhat hazy, and couldn't help but said: "Without indifference, there is no clear ambition, and without tranquility, there is no far-reaching goal."
After saying that, he looked at Geng, who had a round and happy face, and said, "Do you know the origin of this sentence?"
Shu Jin cursed: I really treat my mother as illiterate!
"Although I don't read much, I know that Zhuge Kongming's famous sayings come from the Book of Commandments to His Son." Shu Jin said with a humble face, "It is a book used to teach his son Zhuge Zhan."
Yinzhen nodded and said, "You can be considered a good teacher."
Shu Jin was stunned. Yongzheng, a strict father, was obviously very strict with Hong Zhou. How could he suddenly praise her for how well she taught her son?
"I don't dare to be my concubine." Shu Jin hurriedly lowered his head and said.
Although Yinzhen had long been trying hard to teach Hongzhou a lesson, he didn't expect it. After entering the school, this boy turned out to be quite well-behaved. He was not inferior to Hongli in reading, riding and shooting... Only then did he realize that this boy was real in his previous life.
You are hiding your clumsiness!
What's even more rare is that his mother-in-law is now a noble concubine, and Hong Zhou is not ostentatious, but just studies in a disciplined manner. Hongli, on the other hand, looks at him coldly. Although his studies are not bad, his behavior is a bit more coquettish than in his previous life.
extravagant.
Naturally, at the moment, Yinzhen just thinks that Hong Zhou is better than he thought, and has no intention of establishing a heir apparent.
As for Geng, he became more and more satisfied.
If Hong Zhou can be more confident in the future and can inherit my legacy - of course, this is still too early.
The night watchman of Danning Palace was very agile, and in a blink of an eye he had taken out two pots of osmanthus wine and several exquisite side dishes to accompany the wine.
Shu Jin knew that he was not a good drinker, so he only sipped from a small white jade wine cup. Yong Zheng seemed to be in a good mood and drank three cups in a row without taking a bite of the food.
The night was deep, a man and a woman alone! Shu Jin's heart trembled slightly, and he said quickly: "Your Majesty, this osmanthus wine still has some staying power. Please drink it slowly and don't hurt the dragon's body." - Damn, don't let me get drunk.
What a mess!
Shu Jin wanted to cry but had no tears. If he had known this, he should have raised a beautiful little concubine in his palace!
These words made Yinzhen feel warm in his heart, so he put down the wine cup with a smile, "I'm a little tired, please settle down."
