Jia Yingchun of the Red Chamber

Nanny Gui looked at Yingchun's smiling face, and her intuition brightened: "Chongyuan empress, please come in, the empress dowager has been looking forward to her for a long time!"

These days, the Empress Dowager drank the throat tea specially made by Empress Chongyuan every day, and mentioned Empress Chongyuan almost three times a day, full of emotion.

Well, the throat-moisturizing tea prepared by the girl Ying is more effective than the three clear soup of the Taiyuan Hospital. The key is that it tastes smooth.Poor girl, she is not comfortable, and she is still thinking about my wife's discomfort.

Well, it's just my fault that I was unlucky back then and didn't keep my first child, otherwise I wouldn't have had nothing to do for ten years. Ten years is enough to raise a few girls!

Or his own eyebrows and eyes are bent and fascinated: "Guixiang, if you say that your master and I give birth to a girl, she will be as smart as a girl, right?"

Nanny Gui could see that it was unprincipled for her old master to like what Empress Chongyuan liked.So much so that she wished that she crawled out of her own stomach.

Facing this place, I was still worried that the empress dowager would blame me for walking carelessly and disobeying Yi's orders, so I felt relieved after hearing this.Yingchun knew that the Empress Dowager hated people who didn't understand the rules the most, even if they were close blood relatives, she would not forgive them lightly, Concubine Li Gui was the best example.

Because of this, tea is delivered every day in Yingchun, and I dare not come.

While contemplating, he had already entered the sitting room set up by the empress dowager.Yingchun walked a few steps quickly, stepped forward to bless her body, and smiled with eyebrows and eyes crooked: "Please be well, the empress dowager, the empress dowager is blessed and golden!"

The Empress Dowager smiled when she saw Yingchun: "Young girl is here, sit down and talk!"

Yingchun didn't dare to just sit down, she still stood and waited: "The concubine is not used to sitting and talking, it's better to stand and feel comfortable!"

The Empress Dowager knew that it would take time for Yingchun to get along with her casually, so she didn't force her, so she asked with a smile: "Well, did Nanny Gui tell you?"

Yingchun smiled on her forehead: "Mother Gui has already said that the Empress Dowager is going to do something important to benefit the country and the people, and the concubine is willing to help, but once the concubine comes out to do things, will she not be able to receive the precious medicinal materials?" gone?"

The empress dowager was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth: "Well, this is really a problem, why don't you hide behind and do things, and the medicinal materials for visiting patients in front will be collected as usual?"

This is of course a joke!

The subsequent fundraising was very successful, because all the medicinal materials in Yuanchun Palace were exchanged for silver coins. Yingchun counted two-thirds of the medicinal materials she obtained as her own name, and one third as Yuanchun's name. In short, she did not have any left donated.

However, what surprised Yingchun was that the medicinal materials worth about [-] silver were sold at a high price of [-] silver, which was really surprising.

The donation auction this time was very successful because of the participation of the empress dowager. There were more than 70 concubines in the entire harem.

Seeing the good grades of women and children, the Taishang Emperor also got excited. He collected the four treasures of the study that he had used over the years, and he had a lot of feelings. The set was handed over to the emperor to bid on the long street, but unexpectedly the sky-high price of a set of [-] silver was auctioned.

When Yingchun heard it, I was amazed. This is really a treasure with the word "Huang"!

Then, the Supreme Emperor was so happy when he saw everyone giving face so much, the old man was chatting like a teenager, and even splashed ink on the spot, walking freely with his hands, and wrote four plaques in one go: "A good family!" "Scholarly family!" " Songhe prolongs the year!" "Full of happiness and longevity!"

Not to mention whether the content is good or bad, just say the word Taishanghuang, which is also a priceless treasure. Wouldn't it be the treasure of the town house to take it back?

All of a sudden, there was a lot of competition on the Royal Street. It is said that the sons of a family who have always been known for their gentleness and elegance, actually used their tongues like knives and used their hands and feet in order to bid for the imperial calligraphy.

The Supreme Emperor, the Emperor and the King of Beijing were so happy that they almost burst out laughing.

Of course, Emperor Qianyuan was the happiest.

In the end, these four plaques were sold for 20 yuan respectively. The emperor who presided over the bidding, Laozi Qianyuan, was beaming with joy and beard. The loud laughter spread to every palace in the harem.

Here, the empress dowager sits in the harem, listening to the little eunuchs coming to report the amount of money that is going up, she suddenly laughs like a Maitreya Buddha.

The harem is so dull these days, it needs such a rush of yang and joy.

In the end, the emperor Lao Tzu generously took out the money from his own private treasury, pooled up the donation money into 300 million, and gave it to King Jing and Wang Ziteng respectively, and asked them to buy medicinal materials, food and grass, and decibels would send cups to Haijiang.

With such a commotion in the palace, the solemn reliance of the provincial relatives and empresses has become a joke.

The three nannies of the harem visit their relatives, and Concubine Li is the best.Here, the Empress Dowager and the Empress are looking at the accounts of donations from the concubines in the harem. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are discussing whether they should also promote the ranks of the ordinary concubines of the Supreme Emperor. Come here to bid farewell to the Empress Dowager and leave the palace to visit her relatives.

The Empress Dowager looked at the three of them in bright yellow python robes, and Concubine Li was a red treasure phoenix hairpin with seven tails. Even though Concubine Li was very thin now, she was still very dignified.The corners of the empress dowager's mouth twitched a few times, and finally she squinted her eyes. Resisting her impatience, she ordered a few words: "This is going to represent the majesty of the Tian family. Don't take it lightly. Go early and return early!"

The empress dowager has been in power for many years, and she was unhappy in her heart, but her tone was solemn and kind.

Concubine Li and the three bowed their heads to accept the empress dowager's instruction, they could hear the kindness in the empress dowager's voice, but they didn't see the sneer and impatience in the empress dowager's brows.

At this point, Yingchun finally knew how correct her guess and decision were.

On this day, when Yingchun went back to Chengqian Palace, Yuanchun was listening to the palace servants describe to her the grand occasion of the imperial concubine leaving the palace, with envy in his eyes hard to hide.Yingchun retreated from the crowd, instead talking about the empress dowager's impatience and ridicule.

Yuan Chun was at a loss: "Really?"

Yingchun's forehead: "Why should I lie to my sister?"

Yuan Chun murmured: "But, this matter is decided by the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager? The Empress Dowager also said it, and the dark guard also has news."

Yuan Chun's eyebrows twitched for no reason when he said this.

Yingchun keenly asked: "What secret guard? My sister has a different identity now, is she still working secretly for others?

Yuan Chun narrowed his eyes, shook his head and said, "No, I have already handed over the token in my hand, but the empress will still share some important information with me."

Yingchun didn't answer, but she was secretly contemptuous. I'm afraid that the queen didn't share the real news with Yuanchun this time, or that the emperor hid it very deeply, and the queen didn't know the clue?

Yuan Chun frowned and remained silent, while Ying Chun waited quietly.

But it was the palace gate on the west side, with three pieces of luan driving out of the palace, and everyone wanted to show off their phoenix majesty, except Concubine Li, who was the first to bear the brunt, who was triumphant and non-stop. I walked slowly, step by step, and waited until the distance of a hundred or ten meters was reached, and then I started slowly.

Therefore, the festive drum music at the gate of the palace has been ringing for a long time.

Chengqian Palace is not far from the west gate, Yuan Chun squinted his eyes and listened to the drum music, just like listening to the sound of heaven.

In the end, Yingchun broke the silence: "My sister always sees things more profoundly than my younger sister, but many things can't be seen at a glance. Just like the rumored Haishi Chenlou, it's so wonderful to look at a fairyland, but it's all illusory things. Or, my sister should know a word, people go to the cold tea, those dark makeup spies are no longer under the control of my sister, and my sister should listen to their news carefully. Sometimes you look at a golden road leading to the sky, but in fact it is ghosts. It's just a blindfold of the soul."

Yuan Chun pursed his lips and smiled distressedly: "Second younger sister has grown up now, and she knows how to teach elder sister a lesson!"

Yingchun Yizhi: "Sister,"

Yuan Chun waved his hand: "I can tell who is good and who is bad. My sister is kind, how could I not know?" Then he waved his hand, and Zi Mo ordered someone to bring up a vermilion cage.

Yuan Chun said: "I know that there is no shortage of other things in my sister's palace. These pills are prepared by my doctor Xiao Wang based on my experience. Serious illnesses may not be enough. Some minor illnesses such as colds, coughs, headaches and brain fever can be dealt with completely. , although my sister said that following the empress dowager, everything is good, but I am afraid that if there is a temporary inconvenience, it will be cheaper if we prepare for ourselves."

Yuanchun's ten-year survival experience was not something someone else mentioned in one sentence. Yingchun hurriedly thanked her, and secretly instructed: "After the empress dowager leaves the palace, the empress is the only one in the palace. Concubine Li Gui is not a good person, sister, don't fight with her." Feng, each child is still dependent on each other for life. I asked someone to calculate my sister's due date, and she will give birth in May, maybe earlier. My sister must not, once the fetal position falls, she will definitely give birth within half a month. My sister must remember to send me a letter At that time, I have invited the Empress Dowager Yizhi to come back to guard the delivery room, and I will definitely make all ghosts and monsters stay away, sister, remember?"

After saying that, he left Yuanchun with a jade hairpin that the Empress Dowager gave him: "This is a token, my sister will keep it well. If you think Chengqian Palace is eye-catching, you can send the eunuch and mother of Yanxi Palace to go out!"

Generally, concubines give birth to the queen, and Yingchun's words imply that Yuanchun should not trust the queen too much.

How could Yuanchun not know, took the jade hairpin on his head, held Yingchun tightly with both hands, misty eyes: "Sister, don't worry, I remember every word and every word!"

On this day, Yingchun left Chengqian Palace after sleeping soundly with Yuanchun. Before leaving, Yingchun left the jade bracelet bestowed by the empress dowager to Xiuju: "You are with the eldest aunt, so you must always be vigilant. Once the fetal position of the eldest aunt moves down , you send me a letter immediately, remember?"

Xiuju knew that Yingchun's words were never aimless, and there must be a special reason for such an explanation, so she hurriedly put away the jade bracelet and responded: "Don't worry, girl, even if I forget my surname, I will never forget it."

Yingchun raised his forehead and said again: "Now you are in charge of the small kitchen of the aunt and grandma, remember not to give food outside to your nanny lightly, even if the emperor and queen rewarded you, don't take it lightly, you have to wait for Xiao Wang's doctor to test it before using it, but remember?"

Xiu Ju solemnly bowed his forehead: "My family has recorded it!"

In the end, Yingchun handed Xiuju a silver hairpin: "This hairpin is hollow, and the Chinese medicine liquid in the hairpin is a life-saving fairy liquid that I bought with a lot of money. Two mistakes, life is in danger, you can add this medicinal solution into tea or ginseng soup and give it to your aunt and grandma, don't tell anyone, remember?"

Xiuju raised her forehead again: "Nu Nu remember it!" Xiuju put the silver hairpin on and put it on, because she was nervous, her upper and lower teeth caught each other: "Gu, girl, is there anything so scary in this palace?"

Yingchun smiled slightly, pinching Xiuju's stiff cheeks: "Relax, don't be nervous, there may not be anything wrong, I'm just being prepared, it's just that there have been accidents at home over the years, I'm terrified, think about it, let's go How many people should not go? Like my mother-in-law, like Brother Zhu, like the mother-in-law of Brother Zhen in the house, the mother-in-law of your fourth girl, and Keqing, and Aunt and Uncle Suzhou, you know, I I'm scared, I don't want to see my loved ones again, it's a loss, do you understand?"

After hearing this, Xiuju breathed a long sigh of relief: "I know, I must be careful in the future, girl, don't worry!"

Yingchun held the embroidered orange tightly: "Of course I believe in you. You should work hard. After this period of time, you can protect your aunt and grandma well. It will be a great achievement. When I return to the palace to gain a firm foothold, I will definitely be with you." , and you and your family have a bright future!"

Xiuju used to yearn very much for the freedom of a serious husband and wife.

Xiuju's excited tears just flowed down: "Thank you girl, Nunu is willing to stay with the girl for the rest of her life, as long as her parents are well, Nunu will be grateful!"

After Yingchun arranged everything, she returned to Yanxi Palace, clinker, Gui Nanny's subordinate Liu Er and Ningshou Palace eunuch Xiao Yunzi came in panic. Empress Yuan, something is wrong. Concubine Hui visits relatives, and the second prince sneaks along with her, but the clinker falls into the water while having fun. The second prince was originally weak, but now he is in great danger. The news returns to the palace, empress dowager Furious, she held her breath and fainted at the time, so Nanny Gui asked Nunu to ask Empress Chongyuan to help."

While Yingchun ordered someone to wear a fur cloak for herself, she was just confused: "Shui Zhan? Is Concubine Ning also visiting her relatives?" Concubine Hui visiting her relatives, shouldn't the escort be the eldest son of the emperor?

Liu'er shook her head and waved her hands again: "No, no, Concubine Ning didn't visit her relatives, the second prince was disguised as a little eunuch, and secretly followed Concubine Hui out of the palace, and I didn't know that the general of the city gate had wild eyes, so I didn't recognize him Now, Zhongcui Palace and Yikun Palace are all arrested, and all the gatekeepers and guards at the west gate are also locked up. The emperor said that the second prince has something to do, and everyone will be shot to death."

Xiao Yunzi gritted his teeth while catching each other, and added: "There is also the Jiang University scholar's mansion of Concubine Hui's mother's family. Because the second prince had an accident in Jiang's mansion, the Holy Majesty has sent troops to surround him now. The prince is well and everything is fine, if something goes wrong, the Jiang family will commit a serious crime of murdering the prince, and ransacking the family and exterminating the family is a crime of indulgence!"

Yingchun's heart was dark, the empress dowager had to go to Biyun Temple to pray because of her grandson and great-grandchildren dying one after another, and the clinker saw that one of the grown-ups would be harmed and fall, even though the grandson was weak and sick, and the child's mother was so unpopular But the Tian family's flesh and blood were originally difficult, no matter how much they don't like it, they have grown up so much, they always have feelings, how can they let him die in vain like this?

And Concubine Hui's natal family, a good scholarly family, ended up like this just because Concubine Hui wanted to win.I'm afraid that even if the second prince is fine, the Jiang family will not be able to escape the crime of negligence.

In addition, Concubine Hui and Concubine Ning planned the abortion of Concubine Li. The emperor was planning to deal with it secretly next to the prince.Even the eldest son of the emperor, Ye could not escape the crime of inspection.

The brothers died because their mother and son didn't notice, and even though Shi Jinyu was the victim, she threw herself on Zhou Jieyu and killed two fetuses in one fell swoop.

Yingchun was thinking as she walked, stroking the jade bracelet on her wrist, if the second prince still had some rest after returning to the palace, should he save it by himself?

Before Yingchun could figure it out, he had already entered Ningshou Palace.

The empress dowager has already woken up, and is choking up and sighing, seeing Yingchun, the tears in her eyes rolled down like broken beads: "Ying girl, my palace is so blessed!"

The Empress Dowager's cry was sad and desolate, and Yingchun's heart trembled from crying, and tears filled her eyelashes instantly.Yingchun hurriedly grabbed the Empress Dowager, stretched out her wrist, and held it tightly: "Queen Empress, don't say that, you are the Empress Dowager, the mother of the country, and your blessings are endless, otherwise, how can you give birth to the hero of the country?"

It's just that at this time, a couple of good words can't beat the pain of a grandson in a funeral.The empress dowager suddenly thought of the tricks she used to fight for favor when she was young, and she was secretly meticulous in her heart. She lost her four grandchildren together. Could it be that the heavens have their own judgment, is this a warning?

But, back then, it was my mother and son who didn't count on death?

The more the Empress Dowager thought about it, the more desolate she became, and the sound of crying could not stop.

Nanny Gui was so anxious that she had no choice but to wink at Yingchun.

Yingchun knew that words were no longer effective at this time, so he had to communicate with the koi with his mind. The koi smiled and said: "Master, you have been nourished by spiritual energy for a long time, and there is already a wave of true energy in Ren Du's two veins. Master, you only need to touch it. The Empress Dowager's Baihui and Fengchi acupoints on the back of her head are slowly infused with true qi in her body to help the Empress Dowager direct her blood energy and calm her mood. With words of comfort, it will definitely work.

Yingchun frowned: "Infuriating? But I don't know how to use it?"

The koi said: "The master only needs to concentrate on the fingers, imagine a warm spring-like air from the hand, and then slowly inject it into the empress dowager's meridians, slowing down the agitation of the empress dowager's blood, and then they return to the heart lake. , master, you can push your true qi according to the speed of your own breathing."

According to what Jin Li said, Yingchun concentrated her energy and hands, and slowly moved her luck until the empress dowager's sobs gradually subsided, and she comforted: "Empress dowager, at this time, the emperor must be very anxious because of the matter of the second prince. If he knew that you also fell ill , Isn't it going to be more and more chaotic? At such a critical moment, the emperor relies on you to support, and the harem still needs to coordinate arrangements. Therefore, you should cherish your phoenix body for the emperor, not for yourself. Besides, the news To put it bluntly, if the second prince fell into the water, accidents may not necessarily happen if he falls into the water, you, just relax and rest, and when the news comes back to the palace, the concubine will be the first to tell you."

The Empress Dowager frowned and said, "Maybe something has happened?"

Yingchun's zhenqi slowly circulated in her hands, smiling on her forehead: "Well, the emperor is already in a hurry, the palace doctor is best waiting for you, don't worry, just sleep for a while, wake up, everything will be fine!"

The Empress Dowager was also tired from crying, and there was a stream of heat flowing through her body. In an instant, she felt warm all over her body, like bathing in spring, and she felt indescribably comfortable all over her body. The wind is smoky and intoxicating.

The empress dowager smacked her lips: "News, come back, sue, sue..."

Before he finished speaking, his eyelids were already gently closed.

Nanny Gui didn't dare to make a sound, and Yingchun didn't dare to move her fingers when she stroked the Queen Mother's back neck, for fear of waking up the Queen Mother's peace at this moment.

Time passed moment by moment, and the news sent back was getting worse every time.

According to reports from the palace people, Concubine Ning has gone mad. She stormed Concubine Shu's Changchun Palace with scissors in her hand, threatening that Concubine Shu had harmed her son and wanted to fight Concubine Shu desperately.

Concubine Ning's reason was that in the evening, someone saw the second prince Shui Zhan and the third prince Shui Pei together, and after that, Shui Zhan disappeared.Concubine Ning therefore concludes that Shui Pei must have instigated Shui Zhan, because Shui Zhan is not only weak, but also timid and fearful. If someone hadn't instigated him, he would never have made his own decision and sneaked out of the palace pretending to be a eunuch!

Concubine Shu was almost driven mad by Concubine Ning's bastard judgment, but she knew that this was not the time to compete with Concubine Ning, so she ordered someone to knock Concubine Ning unconscious and send her back to Zhongcui Palace, and hand it over to the new eunuch in charge of Concubine Zhong: " Zai Ruo loses Concubine Ning, be careful with your head!"

Here, concubine Shu went to report to the queen, and ordered someone to deliver a letter to the third prince Shui Pei. There are mad dogs biting people, so be careful when you go in and out!

Shui Pei was with the emperor at the time, and he was more alert than Concubine Shu, knowing that this matter could not be concealed, instead of letting the emperor listen to the empress' report, it is better to tell the truth frankly, and also appear to be frank and selfless.After receiving the news, he brought the eunuch who sent the letter to Emperor Qianyuan: "Father, Mother and Concubine sent people to report that Zhong Cui Gong Ning, the concubine, was so mad that she attacked Changchun Palace with a murder weapon!"

Emperor Qianyuan was shocked: "Shock the Changchun Palace? Why did you attack the Changchun Palace?"

The eunuch said: "Madam Ning said that someone saw the third prince guessing riddles with the second prince in the evening, and then the second prince disappeared. Therefore, Madam Ning thought that the third prince was instigated to leave the palace."

The eunuch's feelings are roughly described, and he dare not repeat Ning's rebellious words.

When Emperor Qianyuan heard the words, the veins on his forehead were bursting. One of his three sons was still alive and dead, and the other was charged with inspecting his younger brother's death. The only one was accused by Concubine Ning as an abettor.

Emperor Qianyuan closed his eyes, is this going to kill his son?Who is the black hand behind this scene?

Looking at the third prince's jade tree facing the wind again, thinking of Concubine Hui's cruelty and Concubine Ning's dullness, Emperor Qianyuan squinted his eyes, did Concubine Shu, mother and son really feel wronged?

Emperor Qianyuan didn't dare to think about it anymore, but he knew that at this moment, he couldn't be messed up, and said in a deep voice: "Go back and tell the eunuch in charge of Zhongcui Palace to take good care of Nuning Concubine Niangniang, if there is any mistake, just wait Move your head!"

Yingchun received news again, but it was that the second prince had died, and the dead prince could no longer enter the Forbidden City, and his body was parked in Jiangfu's family-friendly villa.

The emperor had already led Jin Yiwei out of the palace overnight to the provincial villa in the south of the city.

The news was delivered to Ningshou Palace in person by accompanying the emperor and empress.

The queen was also very frightened and didn't know how to tell the news to the queen mother.

When Yingchun was asked by the queen, she couldn't help thinking to herself, reasoning, Yingchun's concubine should not be allowed to discuss matters in the palace, Yingchun's best choice is to push two five six.It's just that this matter is related to the empress dowager and she is different from herself. If Yingchun Rang doesn't speak the truth, she will lose her conscience.

The empress dowager treats Yingchun very well. If Yingchun is timid and only cares about self-protection, and ignores the empress dowager's body, it will be nothing.

Yingchun decided to express her own opinion, so she cautiously put forward her own suggestion: "Before the Empress Dowager got the second prince into the water, she was already distraught and fainted several times, if I tell the bad news now, I am afraid that the Empress Dowager will not be able to survive!

And even if the Empress Dowager is woken up at this moment, it will not help the matter, it is better not to disturb the Empress Dowager for now, or wait for the Empress Dowager to wake up and ask, we will inform, or wait for the Majesty to return to the palace before making a decision.This is just the concubine's little knowledge, the concubine really can't bear the empress dowager to be overly sad, the specifics are up to the empress dowager to decide! "
