Female Official In the East Palace

The weather is cold this year.

Take a turn.

Kangxi stayed at Kunning Palace last night.

He trusts Nemin, and sometimes he will talk about things from the past. He doesn't point to Nemin to give him any insight, but just relieves the pressure in his heart a little.

However, because she was pregnant recently, he only comforted her tenderly, and didn't say too many troublesome things.

Although he is also fond of other concubines, but when it comes to love, Kangxi only does this to Nemin, his wife, because they have supported each other and have experienced difficulties and growth, and no one else can replace them.

"This morning, the emperor told me that Mr. Niuhulu was seriously ill, and he was going to visit Niuhulu's house to offer condolences." Namin said leisurely, "Presumably the Niuhulu family should also know about it. ."

Rong Xin supported her as she walked slowly and said calmly, "Last winter, Lord Niuhulu contracted a serious illness, and he has been lingering on the bed so far, so he must be prepared."

"No matter how prepared you are, you will not be able to bear it."

As soon as Rong Xin heard her tone, she guessed that she was sighing because of Ma Jiashi's fetal air movement yesterday because of the worsening condition of the fourth prince Saiyinchahun.

Nemin suddenly asked: "Is the palace work too busy?"

"No." Rong Xin was puzzled, "Why do you suddenly ask this question?"

"In the past, if someone came to report the matter of the princes, you would go there in person for me, but this time when Saiyincha was seriously ill, you sent someone else." Nemin looked at Rong Xin, He asked with concern, "But you're too busy to get away? If it's hard work, you don't have to take it all in. I'm just pregnant, so it's not like I can't do anything."

"I'm not too busy." Rong Xin smiled and explained, "I didn't watch it because I couldn't bear to watch it."

She probably couldn't get used to the birth, old age, sickness and death.

And when Nemin listened to her words, she patted her hand comfortingly, "I'm not as good as you to see them. Since I'm too soft-hearted and can't bear to watch, I don't want to go."

Rong Xin didn't say a word, when the maid came to report that it was from the Shangfu Bureau, presumably to make winter clothes, so she sent Nemin back to the square to sit on the couch, out of the bedroom.

She had just closed the door when a gust of wind blew a piece of withered yellow leaves from nowhere, just right between her collars.

Rong Xin took off the leaves and rubbed the veins on it with her fingers. In fact, she was not soft-hearted, but hard-hearted.

After a while, Rong Xin handed it to the little palace maid next to her, and said, "It's getting colder and colder, the maiden is afraid of the cold, so it's time to sleep uncomfortable, tell your sister Lu Chen, Bring out the things that will warm the bed for the Queen in advance."

"Yes."

Rong Xin communicated with the Shangfu Bureau about the winter clothes for each palace. Seeing that there is nothing else to do, there will be Nemin talking with her.

Kangxi went out of the palace to visit Ebilong, and within half a month, Ebilong passed away, and Niuhulu also fell ill.

In this case, it is naturally impossible to come and greet the queen, and Nemin, as the queen, has to be concerned about one or two things, unlike the fourth prince Saiyinchahun, here in the Niuhulu clan, Rong Xin must Have to go to Dinemin.

When she arrived, Niu Hulu was lying ill on the bed, her whole body was full of grief, and she was weak when talking to Rong Xin.

"I am in this state, I can only be entertained badly, don't mind, just feel free."

Rong Xin thanked Tan Xin, the palace maid who brought her a stool, and then said: "Little Master has already said, I am here today on behalf of the Empress to condolences to you, naturally I will not care about those next to you. ."

"Cough, cough—" Niu Hulu coughed, put away the handkerchief, and said with a wry smile, "This is the second time you have come to visit me for my illness, and I have never shared my worries, and I will give it to the empress. trouble..."

"Illness is inexorable, little master don't think too much."

Shi Niu Hulu twitched the corners of his mouth and said to Tan Xin, "Should the ink and wash be boiled? Go and have a look."

"What does the little master want to know?" Rong Xin lowered his eyes and asked lightly, "Did the King of Pingxi kill the governor of Yunnan to oppose the Qing Dynasty, and the emperor had no time to pay attention to you? Or did Mr. Niu Hulu pass away, and Niu Hu Where are the Third Young Master and Third Young Lady of Lu Mansion?"

Rong Xin just asked like this, in fact, he knew what Niu Hulu wanted to know.

Sure enough, Niu Hulu stared at her in the next instant, and said word by word, "Please let the female officer know."

"I only heard that Mr. Niu Hulu died of illness, followed by Fu Jin and the Seventh Young Master."

Niu Hulu’s second wife at home, her biological mother passed away early, and her third siblings share the same mother as her. Father Ebilong was still alive when he was still alive, but now his stepmother is in charge. It's easy to say, but judging from the rumors after the funeral ceremony, it is natural to have your own selfishness.

Rong Xin even thought a little darkly, it is estimated that there are many noble ladies who have given birth to sons and hope that their husbands will ascend to heaven so that they can be the masters of the family.

In the case of Niu Hulu's family, if Ebilong was still alive, she would never dare to make such a big fanfare for her son.

Rong Xin raised her eyes and said softly: "If the little master wants to know something, you can wait patiently for two days, but it will only take a little more work."

When Niu Hulu heard this, he said eagerly, "As long as the female official tells me, I will be grateful."

Rong Xin replied very respectfully: "If you have an order, I will not refuse."

However, Rong Xin was noncommittal about Niuhulu's promise, and asked with a chuckle: "Although I did not answer to you in return, I can say a transgressive word. What's in return for me?"

She still looked like that with a smile on her face, but she seemed to be a little sharp.

Shi Niu Hulu was startled, her lips trembled, and then she said weakly: "Yes, it's just empty words that can't be fulfilled..."

"Ha-" Rong Xin's tone carried some meaning, "Previously, the little master came back with the emperor and the empress dowager. It seems that the third young master and the third young lady may not be able to refer to you, right?"

Mrs. Niu Hulu lowered his head and remained silent for a long time.

Rong Xin stood up, said goodbye after being blessed, and said before leaving: "The Empress, as long as the little masters serve the emperor well and behave well, they don't care who is favored and who is not. I love it, but this palace inevitably insinuates that it will go outside the palace..."

She said that, and without further ado, she turned and left.

Rong Xin returned to Kunning Palace, changed clothes first, and then came to the main hall. She did not hide it from Nemin, and told her everything she said to Niu Hulu in Changchun Palace.

Nemin didn't care about her intentions, but asked: "Can I ask? If it's inconvenient, why don't you send a letter to Hesheli's house and ask her brother to go there, he doesn't have anything to do with him? business."

"How can this trivial matter bother your family." Rong Xin said with a smile, "Although we have been in the palace, the inside and outside of the palace are deeply involved, and it is easy to know something. of."

How many years have Nemin been the queen, they have been operating in the palace for how many years, not to mention that Rong Xin has also presided over the cleaning of the harem once, and promoted and replaced many people.

So this time she represented the palace affairs more smoothly than the first time.

And when Nemin heard what she said, she no longer cared, but talked about the Niu Hulu family, "In this palace, it is a means to attract the emperor's attention by acting at ease, If she really follows the custom, she doesn't know how to make progress and she is willing to degenerate, so at this time she is helpless and can only blame herself."

In Rong Xin's view, Nemin's remarks are not entirely correct. After all, if you really only care about food and clothing and not being favored, the living standards of the concubines are really high. , enough to satisfy.

But most people have to compete for favor, because many beautiful women come to the palace, they themselves have family responsibilities, not without care, so they must strive to be motivated to benefit the family.

The Niu Hulu was a concubine who entered the palace in the early days. She had a high position and was not inferior in appearance and talent. However, if she was domineering in the court at that time, she would definitely disgust Kangxi and abandon her.

And now, with the passage of time, Kangxi has no grudge against her, but she only does this and stops...

Rong Xin asked: "If you can ask, that the younger brother and sister of the same mother who did not treat the little master Niu Hulu kindly, how was the empress?"

"Didn't you tell the Niu Hulu clan that the harem can be insinuated outside the palace?" Namin said gracefully, "You, a female official, is also quite beautiful outside, taking advantage of this opportunity, choose a day to call Together with the personal maids of the Shangniu Hulu family, I went out to the palace to greet the family members of the deceased old ministers, which is a response to the emperor, not forgetting the old heart.

After hearing this, Rong Xin bowed and smiled: "The Queen is wise and wise."

She turned around and arranged for someone to inquire. Two days later, she got news about the Niuhulu Mansion.

Ebilong's stepmother is indeed partial to his own children, and he treats other children who are not his own, but so far, there is no rumor of a vicious stepmother.

In addition, the younger brother and sister of the Niu Hulu family are direct descendants, and their mother is Dorogeg, so the treatment is better than that of the concubines, but it is still young and there is no biological parents to take care of it, I am afraid it is still a bit difficult.

Rong Xin took the ink painting out of the palace to visit Niu Hulu's house the next day. They followed the decree of the Empress, and naturally they met Niu Hulu's younger brother and sister very smoothly.

Ink and wash stood aside and cared about her master's direct siblings, Rong Xin sat there drinking tea, and by the way had a few words with Ebilong's Jifu Jinba Yala.

What should be said, it is time to be rewarded, Rong Xin reminded ink and wash that it is time to return, before leaving, she smiled and said to Fujin Bayara, "The Queen said that , Sir Xian is the son of meritorious deeds, the emperor treats him kindly, and Concubine Niu Hulu is dedicated to serving the emperor, she must be kind to the widow, and if there is any difficulty, she will hand over the sign to the palace, and the empress will be the master."

Bayala immediately said respectfully and gratefully: "My concubine, thank the emperor for his grace, and thank the queen for her grace."

Rong Xin left with Ink and the others, and as soon as they got to the carriage, Ink immediately wiped away her tears and choked up: "Slave and maid, Empress Xie and Lady Rong..."

"Then remember the kindness of the Empress. I am also sent by the Empress."
