In Prince Yi's Mansion, Prince Yi Yinxiang had just laid down when he saw his fourth brother coming through the wall.
In the dim night, there is a candlelight, the cold wind howls outside, and a ghost floats to the bedside.
Prince Yi, who was as steady as an old dog, was not frightened at all. Instead, he was a little helpless, "Fourth brother is venting his anger on the Queen Mother again?"
"Mr. Geng is going too far!" The damned Majesty Yongzheng was so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas entered Nirvana. He cursed and started to complain to his thirteenth brother.
Prince Yi was really sleepy, so he tried to cheer up and agreed with his fourth brother, and then... not long after, Prince Yi lowered his head and was still sitting on the bedside, breathing evenly.
The dead Emperor Yongzheng looked at his younger brother with resentment: "Thirteenth brother..."
But he couldn't bear to wake up his thirteenth brother.
The Thirteenth Brother has to go to the military aircraft office during the day and deal with matters in the Ministry of Internal Affairs at night. He often has to rest in the middle of the night. He can't even fall asleep even sitting down, which shows that he is very tired.
His Majesty the Ghost sighed: "Lie on the bed and sleep, don't catch a cold."
Fortunately, the attendant who was waiting outside came in to add charcoal to the charcoal basin, and saw that his prince was sleeping on the bedside. He wondered, didn't the prince lie down just now? Is this sleepwalking?
The attendants hurriedly took Prince Yi back to bed and then withdrew.
The dead majesty breathed a sigh of relief and floated quietly at the end of the bed. The night was quiet. Although he was depressed, at least he did not feel lonely.
——
Forbidden City, Yongshou Palace.
When the new emperor Hong Zhou ascended the throne, Concubine Shu's Fucha family moved to the Yongshou Palace at the head of the Sixth Palace in the West, which shows its status. Naturally, the Yongshou Palace was not given by the emperor, but was arranged by the Empress Wu Zhaku.
"It's late at night, it's better for you to rest," Mother Chunxuan said with a loving look on her face.
Concubine Shu is counting the jewelry. Today at the card table, the winners take turns, and the hairpin is also going round and round several times. Those belonging to others are just fine, the ones belonging to the Queen Mother need to be kept alive, and the ones lost by the noble lady, Shu
Concubine Shu had quietly won back seven or eighty-eight pieces, and even deliberately kept them secretly. On the other hand, Concubine Shu had exported several pieces of her original jewelry.
"A tourmaline peach blossom hairpin, a golden silk peony hairpin, a pair of jasper cloud pattern hairpins, and a pair of blue and white jade bead earrings." Concubine Shu carefully put these into the brocade box and sighed, "It's a pity that there is still a good one.
The golden luan, dotted with green emeralds and pearls in its mouth, was swaying in the concubine's plate, but she didn't have time to win it back."
After Concubine Shu counted them, she said to Chunxuan: "Early tomorrow morning, send an inconspicuous little eunuch to secretly send them to Yanxi Palace."
Jiagui lived in the side hall of Yanxi Palace, but Yanxi Palace did not have the main seat, and it was located next to Jingren Palace, which shows that the queen loved Jiagui very much.
Aunt Chunxuan muttered: "Your Majesty is so kind-hearted."
Concubine Shu sighed apologetically, "I called her to Cining Palace and lost so many beloved jewelry. How could I not help her win them back? And tell her, that Bu Yao, I will win in the future."
Come back and give it back to her."
Aunt Chunxuan whispered: "In this way, you have lost several pieces of jewelry today."
Concubine Shu smiled and said, "Just hurry up and win back from Concubine Hui!"
Hui Concubine is rich, so as long as she can please the Queen Mother, she doesn't care about losing more jewelry. The emperor probably saw this, so he rewarded Hui Concubine.
Aunt Chunxuan couldn't help but smile, "However, these pieces of jewelry were exported by Jiagui. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for her to wear them again in the future."
Concubine Shu closed the brocade box and said slowly: "These are gifts from the Queen. Even if you can't wear them out, I will keep them in your hands and be able to take a look at them from time to time, which will make you happy in your heart."
The relationship between the Queen and Jia Gui is different from ordinary masters and servants. Concubine Shu looked at it and she actually loved Jia Gui as if she were her own sister or a younger niece.
Chunxuan nodded: "Jiagui's success today is all due to the queen's promotion. Therefore, Jiagui is also very loyal to the queen."
As she spoke, Chunxuan could not help but lower her voice and said: "Although Prince Lu said he was restored to the title of king, he was still not reused by the emperor. After the funeral of the late emperor, he was left idle. Not to mention Sifujin. Your Majesty is in this palace,
Although the popularity is quite good, there is no loyal person like Jia Guiren to work for me. Madam...can I ask the Fucha family to make arrangements?"
Hearing this, Concubine Shu frowned.
Chunxuan sighed, "Your Majesty, are you blaming this servant for saying something so unpleasant?"
Concubine Shu's eyes were soft, and she held on to Aunt Chunxuan's hand and said: "I know that Auntie is thinking about the future of Shan'er and me, but... the Queen is virtuous, and the Queen loves Shan'er so much. As for Sister Shunying, the Queen Mother also
I have always paid her according to Prince Fujin's example. I am already a noble concubine, what else am I not satisfied with?"
Aunt Chunxuan whispered: "It would be great if I could have another brother."
Concubine Shu was silent, she naturally also looked forward to having an elder brother, so that she and Shan'er could have a long-term support in the future.
"Children are destined to be born, so how can we force them?" Concubine Shu said.
Aunt Chunxuan looked at her mother-in-law's young and beautiful appearance in the mirror and said: "Concubine Hui is pregnant and cannot sleep with her. There are few concubines in the palace now, so my wife should take the opportunity to work hard."
Concubine Shu thought to herself that noble people also think so, and the queen also intends to promote good noble people to be favored by others...
"The emperor is busy with government affairs, and the number of times he summons his concubines in a month is only a handful of times." Concubine Shu sighed regretfully, "Although I have the intention, I cannot lose my dignity."
Aunt Chunxuan hummed and said: "That noble person is so charming now." - She had lost her favor at first, but over the years, she has gradually regained some favor.
Concubine Shu said helplessly: "I can't learn from Cui Jia, can I?"
Aunt Chunxuan nodded: "That's natural. Who is your empress? How can you imitate her?!"
Concubine Shu yawned, "Okay, mama, I'm tired."
Seeing this, Aunt Chunxuan stopped chattering and hurriedly changed the night watch maid to come in and help her mother-in-law undress and sleep.
It was cold in spring, and Shu Jin only woke up after three poles in the sun.
Then Lu Xue walked in with a smile, knelt down and said: "Mother, Princess Huairou launched the attack in the middle of the night last night!"
"Ah?!" Shu Jin's eyes widened, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Lu Xue smiled and said: "Concubine Maodegui will not allow anyone to disturb your sleep. She only sent someone to announce the good news early in the morning, saying that the princess has given birth."
That's quite fast.
"Boy or girl?" Shu Jin felt as happy as opening a blind box.
Lu Xue said with a smile: "He is a strong boy."
Shu Jin was slightly disappointed, "That's all, just be healthy. Oh, by the way, is Feng Keli okay?"
"The princess is fine, she just fainted from exhaustion."
Shu Jin's heart fell back into his stomach. Boy, in the feudal era, being a man was happier than being a woman. The prince of Khalkha was considered to be the first and most valuable. For this title, he would have to endure some severe cold in the future.
It's obviously worth it.
Shu Jin didn't feel sorry for the child, but he felt a little sorry for Feng Keli.
"It doesn't matter, the child is still young anyway, so he can stay in Beijing temporarily." Shu Jin half said to himself.
Feng Keli's father had not fulfilled his duty of filial piety, so the child's baptism could not be carried out until the full moon. Shu Jin asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to buy more gold ingots, and rewarded Feng Keli mother and son with gold ingots.
