This Mr. Ning Gui was actually thicker than she thought. He was caught in a cold rain in spring, but it was no big deal.
On the other hand, Concubine Xi's wife, Niu Hulu, came to visit her within three days.
Shu Jin slowly came out of the study and looked at Concubine Xi with a smile, "Sister Concubine Xi has not been here for some time."
Concubine Xi glanced at the pile of papers and accounts on the desk in the study, and she couldn't help but smile: "I know your sister is busy and there is nothing important, so how dare you disturb her?"
The relationship between Shu Jin and Concubine Xi became increasingly distant, but they could still act like close sisters when they met each other.
Then he smiled and invited Concubine Xi to sit down and have tea in the West Flower Hall.
The tea was from Mingqian Longjing in Xingong. After one sip, Concubine Xi felt the fragrance and mellow taste, and couldn't help but praise: "Good tea!"
This Ming Dynasty tea is as expensive as gold, and the annual tribute is only a few dozen kilograms. The emperor still wants to reward the previous dynasty, so there is really not much left for the harem.
After savoring it carefully, Concubine Xi slowly said: "My sister must have heard about what happened yesterday."
Not only I heard about it, but I also saw Ning Guiren kneeling on the roadside with my own eyes.
Shu Jin didn't want to talk, so he nodded and said: "It concerns the Queen Mother, so what can we do?"
Concubine Xi sighed, "Yes, the Queen Mother has always been tough-tempered, and the emperor doesn't even give her face, let alone us. This Ning Guiren is indeed a bit pitiful." As she said this, Concubine Xi
I took a careful look at the imperial concubine. She was quite calm and could not see the slightest expression on her face.
"What do you think, sister?" Concubine Xi asked with a smile on her face.
Shu Jin smiled faintly: "Sister Concubine Xi, you can say it directly if you have anything to say. There is no need to beat around the bush between us."
Concubine Xi looked embarrassed, "I just thought that although Ning Guiren was at fault, he has already been punished. If we ignore it, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother will grind her to death without waiting for Concubine Dun."
"
Shu Jin secretly thought, that's not the case.
"What do you mean?" Shu Jin looked at Concubine Xi with a smile.
Concubine Xi had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "I want to take Ning Guiren to Yinghui Palace and take care of her. After all, it is a human life. Sister Guifei has always been kind-hearted, so she won't refuse, right?"
Haha, you actually kidnapped me morally?
If it wasn't really in line with her plan, Shu Jin would really not want to agree!
Shu Jin lowered his eyelids and pretended to think about it. After a long time, he said, "Well, since Concubine Xi has come to ask for it in person, how can I not give you this face?"
After accepting the person, quickly let me fight with Concubine Atsushi!
Concubine Xi was overjoyed for a moment and said repeatedly: "I knew that your sister has a heart of Bodhisattva!"
After smiling and chatting with her for a long time, she finally sent Concubine Xi away.
Lu Xue couldn't help but whisper: "This Concubine Xi is becoming more and more eloquent!"
Shu Jin's arms rested lazily on the autumn-colored pillow, and he said slowly: "Concubine Dun has a son, she is very anxious." - He did not hesitate to extend an olive branch to Ning Guiren, who had dumped her coldly in the past.
But this is fine.
Concubine Xi moved very quickly. In less than three days, she packed up the east side hall of Yinghui Hall and gave it to Ning Guiren to live alone. However, the other Chang Zai agreed that they could only squeeze into the west side hall and the ear hall.
In order to win over Ning Guiren, Concubine Xi spent a lot of money.
On this day, Concubine Mi brought her Seventh Prince Hongxin, who had recovered from illness, to the Danning Hall to say hello and express her gratitude. The two of them had barely exchanged a few words when the Dog Emperor suddenly arrived.
Hongxin didn't see the emperor's father very often, so he was a little unfamiliar, but he was polite and well-behaved.
Yinzhen took a look at his fair and fair son, and found him pleasing to the eye, "Why do I see Hongxin losing weight?"
Concubine Mi sighed: "It was warm and cold a while ago, and I got some wind and cold. Recently, I finally got better."
Yinzhen was stunned, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Shu Jin slandered, what can I do if I tell you? You are not an imperial doctor, and you don’t know how to treat diseases! But he said: "The emperor is busy with government affairs, and Concubine Mi has always been quiet and sensible, how can you bother the emperor for this matter?"
Yinzhen didn't say much, he just touched his son's head and said, "Hongxin is a little too quiet, not like an elder brother."
Shu Jin was speechless. Unlike his elder brother, how could he still look like a princess?
Well, don't tell me, this child is fair and tender, but more delicate than those skinny boys.
Concubine Mi felt a little unhappy, but she didn't dare to refute, so she lowered her head and sulked.
Shu Jin hurriedly laughed and said: "Your Majesty is joking, you are so majestic, which brother dares to jump around in front of you?" - Even Hong Zhou was like a mouse meeting a cat when he saw the dog emperor.
Yinzhen: Yeah... that's true.
Yinzhen waved his hand, "I find Feng Keli very lively and cheerful."
Shu Jin secretly thought: She is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.
Shu Jin smiled and said: "That's because the emperor is a loving father in front of the princess, but can't help but be a strict father in front of the elder brother." - It's rare that the dog emperor didn't blame the third princess because of Su Chang's presence.
.
Yinzhen nodded sternly: "That's natural. The princess can be pampered, but the prince cannot be indulgent!" As he said that, the old face became majestic again, like a King Kong.
Seventh Prince Hongxin couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Concubine Mi also forced a smile and said, "The third princess is lively and lovely. I am also very envious of sister Maofei's good fortune."
Shu Jin thought about it and suddenly sighed: "It's a pity——"
Yinzhen frowned slightly: "What's a pity?"
Shu Jin whispered: "The third princess is so lovely, but she has a biological mother like that... Sigh."
Thinking of the Su family, Yinzhen couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.
Shu Jin secretly observed what was happening and took the opportunity to say, "The third princess has not yet been included in the jade certificate. Can the emperor consider recording the princess in the name of Concubine Mao in the future?"
Hearing these words, Yinzhen nodded: "Thanks to the imperial concubine for reminding me, Feng Keli shouldn't have such a dishonorable biological mother!"
With that said, Yinzhen directly called Zhang Lin forward: "Go and pass on the decree. From now on, my third princess is the daughter of the Song family of Concubine Mao. Don't let me remember it wrong when you rebuild the clan jade certificate in the future!"
"嗻!"
Shu Jin and Mi Bi ignored each other and smiled.
Although this matter is still early, taking advantage of the opportunity to settle it early can also give Concubine Mao peace of mind.
Concubine Mi's smile grew brighter: "Your Majesty is so kind, Sister Mao Fei will definitely be extremely happy!"
For a time, Danning Hall felt a little more happy.
Suddenly, Yinzhen's face turned serious again, "I went to Yinghui Hall a few days ago and heard Concubine Xi say that Ning Guiren was punished by the Queen Mother to kneel for two hours, and she became seriously ill because of it."
Being punished by kneeling down is true, but being seriously ill is false.
Shu Jin suppressed his smile and whispered: "It's been more than half a month, and I've heard about it. I don't know how Ning Gui has offended the Queen Mother. As a junior, I can't say anything."
——So I didn’t report it to the emperor.
Yinzhen's face turned a little gloomy.
Shu Jin saw this and couldn't help but secretly thought, it seems that Concubine Xi did not miss the eye drops.
If Concubine Xi gave eye drops to other concubines, Yong Zheng would definitely not believe her, but if she spoke ill of the Queen Mother... that would be a sure thing.
Shu Jin immediately said: "But now that Ning Guiren has gone to Concubine Xi's palace, someone will take care of her from now on. Your Majesty, just don't worry."
Yinzhen's face still looked a little bad: "I gave the Eighth Prince to Concubine Dun to raise. Queen Mother - do you think I was wrong?!"
Shu Jin complained: Do you still think you did the right thing?!
Shu Jin lowered his head: "I dare not speak nonsense."
Yinzhen shook his sleeves with some dissatisfaction: "You, a noble concubine, can pretend to be deaf and dumb!"
After saying these words, the emperor walked away.
