Holding the Piano in the Red Chamber

It was Concubine Wu's own mother who entered the palace the next day, and she was very generous. After giving the little eunuch a 100 tael silver ticket, she was led to the imperial garden when she left the palace.

In the imperial garden, the queen mother was still holding the piano, and the two walked around smilingly, but Mrs. Wu was not so lucky to kowtow to the queen mother.

Mrs. Wu followed behind the little eunuch, and stopped when she saw the Queen Mother from a distance.The little eunuch sighed very slightly, but since Mrs. Wu entered the palace, she wanted to open her pores to listen for news, how could she not hear it?

Mrs. Wu thought there was a door, and when she was about to leave the imperial garden, she asked curiously, "Which little master is that just now, he looks very kind." After speaking, she handed over another bank ticket.

The little eunuch squeezed the bank note, thinking that he had gained a lot in the past few days, but his face was extremely pure and kind, and praised: "That is the concubine Jia, who is very favored. From time to time, the garden is called to serve in Qianqing Palace."

Mrs. Wu was startled, thinking that this is her daughter's rival!

But this time there was no explanation or warning. Mrs. Wu told Mr. Wu when she went back that day.

In the next few days, the Empress Dowager was still the Empress Dowager, while Baoqin went from Yuanchun to Concubine Wu, and finally played the role of Concubine Zhou.The Empress Dowager was very happy with this activity, it was nothing more than strolling around the imperial garden and helping her emperor's son a lot.

As for Baoqin, she received her big reward in Qianqing Palace.

Liang Dafu entered the palace.

This begins with the funeral at the end of last year.To put it simply, the emperor was afraid that Prince Yizhong would leave behind. All those who carried the sedan chair, including the late emperor's coffin, were selected from the army.Liang Dafu was chosen to carry the emperor's sedan chair because of his great strength, being the elder brother of the empress in the palace, and his loyalty could be guaranteed.

The emperor had a good impression of Baoqin's family, and he would look at Liang Dafu outside the sedan chair from time to time. In addition, he was really strong. The emperor once saw him accidentally slipping the sedan chair in front of him. The husband picked it up with one hand, and the sedan chair didn't even shake.After going back and forth like this, the emperor took a fancy to him.

After returning from the mausoleum of the first emperor, Liang Dafu joined the ranks of palace guards.In addition, Baoqin is also loyal in the palace, serving the queen mother caringly, and can generate income for the palace, and the maids of all palaces are also quite satisfied, well, the most important thing is that the emperor is satisfied, so Liang Dafu joined the job again Qing palace as a guard.

In this position, even if he has no talents, he can earn a title when he retires, and he will not worry about it for the rest of his life.

Liang Dafu looks like Liang Feng, when Baoqin saw him, tears flowed down his face.

It has been the fourth year since entering the palace...

"Brother, you're black..." Baoqin stood two steps away from him, crying and laughing, not knowing what to say.

Liang Dafu's eyes were red and his mouth parted, "Er Fu has grown taller."

Baoqin clutched the handkerchief tightly and wailed loudly, even Ruicheng who had just walked out could hear clearly.Baoqin had never cried like this before, and the emperor felt inexplicably sad when he heard it.Thinking of his eccentric father and his elder brother who had been plotting against the throne, he couldn't help but wiped away his tears.

Xiaobao was still young when he entered the palace. Although he was over seven years old, the emperor still allowed them to meet, and Baoqin was not a concubine at that time.

But Dafu, who entered the palace now, was 22 years old, and it was already a kindness for the emperor to let them meet. At that moment, an eunuch lowered his head and erected a screen in front of the two of them.

The maid wanted to sit down with the qin in her arms, but she and the concubine stood up straight, and couldn't pull it down even with all the strength in her body.

"Is mom okay?" Baoqin asked, staring closely at the figure of her eldest brother on the other side of the screen.

Liang Dafu nodded first, then remembered that his sister might not be able to see him over there, and said: "It's all good, we have changed to a big house now and hired servants, but my mother is always busy, making shoes and embroidering handkerchiefs for us." What..." At this point, Liang Dafu stopped, and then he had to bring up the sad matter of holding the piano, Zhao repeated it many times before he left, and he could only say that the family is good.

But the family is really good, but everyone misses you very much.

But this can't be said, Liang Dafu followed Zhao Shi's instructions and said: "You are fine in the palace, we are all fine."

Baoqin hummed with tears in his eyes, the voice was small.

Liang Dafu began to say again: "Xiaobao is studying at home, and plans to take the scientific examination in April next year. I am now a second-class bodyguard, and I can receive several hundred taels of silver every year, and I can also receive food every month. Don't worry, my sister. , everything is fine with us."

Baoqin nodded again, hummed in a low voice, and said: "Brother, take this." After speaking, a maid came out from behind the screen, and handed a small box to Liang Dafu.

"This is for mom, she will know it when she sees it." Liang Dafu weighed the box but it was quite heavy.

This is where Baoqin has saved a lot of money over the past few years.The use of silver is actually not very accurate. There are two things in the box, the gold rewarded by the two emperors and the queen mother, and the usual silver tickets. Even Yuan Chun contributed a lot.

Adding up, there are 1 taels, but Baoqin didn't tell Liang Dafu what it was.She thought that Mrs. Zhao must have confessed that Liang Dafu couldn't take the money for Baoqin, so it's better to go home and reveal it. At that time, they couldn't enter the palace, so they had to accept it no matter what.

After saying these few words, the burning incense in the hall went out, and the eunuch Xiao Hongzi next to Ruicheng stepped forward to remind him: "Your Majesty, Lord Liang, the time is up."

Liang Dafu quickly wiped away his tears and said, "Sister is fine, I'm leaving."

When Liang Dafu's back was out of sight, Baoqin also took the maid out of the Qianqing Palace.

Originally, Ruicheng thought that Liang Dafu would see his younger sister, and he would talk to his mother and younger brother after returning home, so he gave him two days off. Unexpectedly, when he entered the palace on the third day, Liang Dafu came very early. Just knelt there and couldn't get up.

Ruicheng has nothing to worry about recently, the government is going smoothly, and he has almost inquired about the news of several big moths, so he deliberately put on a face and asked: "Why, I asked you to see my concubine and I saw something wrong instead."

Liang Dafu suddenly raised his head, took out the small box that Baoqin gave him last time, and said: "Your Majesty, this is something given by the second... and concubine, my mother said that I can't accept it, so I brought it back .”

"Oh? What is it?"

"I didn't look at it, I don't know." Liang Dafu lowered his head again, it's over, he forgot to say minister in the last sentence, but the emperor didn't seem to hear it.

"Okay, let's put it down." Ruicheng took the things, weighed them, and said, "I'll hand them over to Concubine He."

Liang Dafu kowtowed and went out to work.

The whole world belongs to the emperor, what can he not know?No psychological burden at all.When there was no one in the hall, Ruicheng opened it and saw that there were a lot of gold lockets and silver tickets inside.I'm afraid there are 1 taels.

Ruicheng smiled. When his father was alive, his concubine was not so petty when she went out to admire things.

So in the afternoon, the little box returned to Baoqin Palace, and Ruicheng gave his "favorite concubine" a reward that could reflect the royal prestige to his natal family.

According to Baoqin's position as the internal director of the second grade, Mrs. Zhao got the imperial order of the third grade.Baiyin rewarded 5 taels, a house, and a mountain villa with grain farms and hot springs outside Beijing. The emperor thought that his "favorite concubine" probably had no one in his family who could appreciate calligraphy and painting, so he replaced them all with decorations. antiques etc.

So the emperor is also a very pragmatic person.

There are also rewards for holding the qin in the palace. Apart from jewelry, clothes and fabrics, the most enviable thing is to have sex with the emperor for three days.

Of course, Baoqin was also very satisfied, and the palace ate yam and jujube cake for five days in a row.
