Indulgence in the Red Chamber

Jinyu was sleepless all night.Listening to the sound of rain, until the fifth watch, I opened my eyes and looked at the blue window, and called out: "Xinghua."

"Fu Jin, it's still early, I heard you didn't sleep well last night, why don't you lie down for a while?"

"I won't sleep anymore, I'm sore from lying down, I'd better get up and walk around." Jinyu said, sitting up and leaning against the bed.

"It's been raining all night. It just stopped, and although it's wet outside, the air is good. If Fujin wants to go out for a walk, he should put on an extra layer of clothes." Xinghua helped Jinyu get up, and saw She was not in a hurry to wash and wash, but just looked out of the window, so she took a cotton silk jacket and draped it over her shoulders.

"I was just about to go out for a walk. You can do your work, I'll come back and freshen up." Jinyu held the skirt of her clothes with both hands, and walked out of the room.

It was still early, and the whole house was quiet.Jinyu first came to Honghui's room to look at the sleeping child and nurse, then came out quietly, and slowly walked out of the courtyard door to the back garden.Breathing the humid air all the way, I only felt the cool feeling penetrated into the internal organs.

Jinyu was walking with her head down, when someone stood in front of her unexpectedly, her familiar aura blocked the cool wind, when she suddenly looked up, she saw Yinzhen's thin and haggard face.

"Master! It's so early, you are..." Jinyu stopped unconsciously in the middle of her words.She didn't know where Yinzhen slept last night, but she felt that asking such a question would definitely make Yinzhen's face uneasy.

"Well, how early?" Yinzhen answered irrelevantly, and asked again: "Where are you going?"

"If you don't go anywhere, just walk casually. Where is Master going?" Jinyu replied mechanically, feeling funny again in her heart—is this still a husband and wife?No matter how you look at it, you look like passers-by A, B, C, Ding.

"I'm going to sleep." Yinzhen said wearily, and walked away.Indeed, due to physical discomfort, he swayed and nearly fell down.

Jinyu hurriedly turned around to support him, and asked distressedly, "Master, what's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing... help me back to my room, I'll be fine after a night of sleep." Yinzhen's voice was very low and weak, as if all the strength in his body had been sucked away.

The anxiety last night, plus the rain, plus the sadness and shock, until the anger at the result of the interrogation, several emotions intertwined in my heart, and I didn't sleep for another night.

Jinyu helped Yinzhen go back to her room, waited for him to lie down, and anxiously told Xinghua: "Go and get someone to send the imperial doctor! Your body is like burning coals, but what should I do!"

"Fu Jin, don't worry, this servant is going right away." Xinghua hurriedly ran out to order people, Jinyu sat beside Yinzhen and put a wet towel on his forehead, and couldn't help but glance at the drowsy man Sigh softly.

"Emiang, what's the matter with Ama?" Hong Hui quietly came in from the outside, rubbed against Jin Yu's side and asked in a low voice.

"Ama is tired." Jinyu turned to look at the seven-year-old Hong Hui, with a slight smile on his face, "Honghui, let's go out and play, don't disturb Ama to sleep here."

"Emiang, is Ama sick?" Honghui looked at Yinzhen's pale face, "Look at his lips are cracked."

Jinyu nodded helplessly: "Good boy. Your Ama is sick. Don't disturb him. Go out and play obediently, okay?"

"I'm not going. I want to stay here and take care of Ama." Honghui looked at Yinzhen seriously, his black and white eyes blinked, pure as a pool of autumn water.

While half asleep and half awake, Xu Zhen seemed to have heard Hong Hui's words, and opened his parched mouth, trying to say something but couldn't make a sound.

"Ama, what did you say?" Hong Hui's eyes were sharp, seeing Yin Zhen's mouth opened, he hurriedly put his ear to it.

"What are you talking about?" Jinyu also leaned up to look into his son's serious eyes.

"Er Niang, Ama said: Water..."

"Oh, come on, bring water!" Jinyu hurriedly turned her head and told the girl, someone immediately brought half a cup of boiled water, and Jinyu fed Yinzhen spoonful by spoonful, and after drinking three or four mouthfuls, Yinzhen's mouth was already closed On the bed, the sleeper also fell into a deep sleep.

When Dai Duo came back from the outside and heard that Yinzhen fell ill, he just sighed secretly and stood aside waiting for Jinyu to speak.

Jinyu glanced at him and winked, then got up and left the bedroom to go to the east room.Dai Duo hurriedly followed.

When Xuanning came in from the outside, Daiyu was standing in front of the window wearing a smoky purple Chinese medicine doctor.The complicated window lattice was half-opened, and the bright sunlight came in from the outside and sprinkled on her face. Some messy hair was illuminated into gold, and even the smoky purple river silk was coated with a layer of light gold. Glossy, the breeze shakes gently, like smoke and clouds.

Xuan Ning was a little dumbfounded.

Daiyu turned her head and saw Xuanning standing behind her, and smiled faintly: "What are you looking at?"

"Look at you." Xuan Ning smiled, seeing her dazed eyes, ignorant and delusional, his heart moved, he reached out and lifted her forehead hair involuntarily, his palm seemed to pass across her face, and said softly, "So lovely."

Daiyu laughed lightly, the room suddenly became silent, and each other's heartbeats could be heard quietly.

Xueyan came in with [-] yam soup, seeing the two standing opposite each other, neither of them said a word, smiled lightly: "We have eaten."

"Who got up so early to make the stew?" Daiyu looked back at the bowl, smiled and walked over.

"Young master got up early in the morning and ordered the servants to stew it. Master, do you taste delicious?"

Daiyu didn't want to eat it at first, but Xuanning came over and took a small spoon and brought it to her mouth. As soon as she took it, the thick soup slid down her throat gently, and her lips and teeth were fragrant.

The yam is extremely soft and rotten, without any astringent taste. It is the best when paired with thick bone soup and boiled slowly.

"It's delicious." Daiyu smiled and took the spoon from Xuanning's hand. "I haven't eaten such a delicious yam soup for a long time."

After she was full, she barely had the energy to stand up. Seeing Xueyan bring another bowl of longan and white fungus soup, she wailed, "Oh, why didn't you tell me that there are other things, I have no stomach to eat..."

"Young lady doesn't have a stomach to eat, but it's cheaper for us." Xueyan said and turned to go out.

Daiyu hastily held her back: "No, no, at least give me a taste."

Xueyan giggled and put the white fungus soup on the high table, Wang Momo heard voices outside and laughed and said, "It's been a long time since I heard Master asking for something to eat, but today the sun came out from the west."

"Young master doesn't come back, our master won't taste anything. Young master is what our master eats. We can't do without him." Xueyan said, took the tray and turned to go out.

"Dead hoof, you are becoming more and more unruly. If you talk nonsense again, be careful I will send you out!" Daiyu blushed with a smile, and secretly glanced at Xuan Ning who was concentrating on dealing with the bowl of yam soup. People didn't pay attention to anything.

As soon as breakfast was finished, Kangxi sent someone to see Daiyu.It turned out that in the early court, the admiral of the nine gates told the story of the attack on the princess last night in the court hall, and asked to be demoted and sent to prison.It is true that the nine admirals have neglected their duties when such a thing happened in the capital, but there must be something ulterior in it, even though the nine admirals said that all the perpetrators were wiped out and there were no survivors.But as the emperor, he would never believe such nonsense.

Kangxi immediately ordered someone to come to see if Daiyu was injured, and at the court meeting, he demoted the nine admirals and sent them to jail for disposal.He also heard that Yinzhen also fell ill due to the rain, so he ordered Li Dequan to see Daiyu, then go to Sibeile Mansion to see Yinzhen, and then come back to answer.

When Xuan Ning heard that Li Dequan was coming, he hurriedly hid in.

Daiyu told Li Dequan about the situation at that time, and she felt that if it wasn't for the fourth master, she might have died in Huangquan, and she shed tears for a while.

"Princess is a lucky person. Naturally, bad luck can be turned into good luck, and disaster can be auspicious. At this moment, the emperor is thinking about the princess very much, so Fang asked the old servant to rush over to see the princess, and then go to Sibeile's mansion to see Sibeile."

"What's the matter with fourth master?" Daiyu hurriedly asked, "But it rained last night and got sick?"

"Isn't it! It's raining so hard, how can you not get sick! Don't worry, the princess, the emperor has sent an imperial physician to the fourth master, and it will be fine if you think about it. The old slave will go over in a while. If there is something wrong, I can't hide it from the princess." .”

"Yeah. Eunuch is right. It's just that fourth master got caught in the rain to save me. After all, I'm uneasy." Daiyu said, then turned to tell Xueyan: "Ask someone to prepare the car, and I will go with Eunuch Go to Baylor's mansion to see fourth master."

Xueyan was about to persuade her, but she heard Li Dequan already said: "The princess is not well, so she should be kept at home? If the princess is not comfortable, the emperor will not let it go."

"It's okay. I know my own body." Daiyu smiled, and then told Xueyan: "Get the car ready."

Xueyan had no choice but to go down to get ready, Daiyu persuaded Li Dequan to have a cup of tea, went out with him, got into the car and went to Sibeile Mansion.

Yinzhen suffers from exogenous wind-cold and mental exhaustion, so it will be fine after a deep sleep and sweating.

Jinyu personally sent Li Dequan out, then grabbed Daiyu, sighed and shook her head and said, "Sister, don't leave today. Just stay for lunch and come back?"

"Fu Jin wants to take care of the fourth master, so I won't cause any trouble for Fujin." Dai Yu came to see Yin Zhen, worried that Yin Zhen would say something to Jin Yu because of what happened last night.At that time, I was in Yinzhen's arms with abdominal pain and asked him to go to Xuanning. What he said made Daiyu uneasy.I was afraid that what Yinzhen would say in a hurry would hurt Jinyu, so I rushed here with Li Dequan.Now it seems that Jinyu didn't hear anything, and everyone can live in peace.She thought about going back to Yuanmingyuan immediately.

As for Jinyu, Yinzhen didn't need to say anything at all, she already had a thought in her heart.

For more than six years, Yinzhen has always put Daiyu's affairs first, regardless of food and goods, as long as it is related to Daiyu, he has tried his best to please her.And Jinyu has been by his side all these years, why should he say it himself?Now that things have happened, Jinyu thinks that going on like this is not an option.Then he took Daiyu and prepared to pick it out.

Jin Yu's heart at the moment is just thinking: whether it's good for the side Fujin or for the right Fujin.As long as Yin Zhen is happy, it doesn't matter to him.Even if there is no Daiyu, there will be others. He is a prince, and he can't just guard his life with a woman all his life.If Daiyu can come here, she can also win a sister to look after her, which is a kind of good luck.

So Jinyu pulled Daiyu and said with a smile: "My sister rarely comes here, but she leaves as soon as she comes. Now that she is really grown up, it's not like when we were young, our sisters talked together all day and couldn't be bothered?"

At this time, Daiyu wanted to go back to be with Xuanning. She knew that the more she cared about Yinzhen, the more she couldn't explain clearly. It turned out that Yinzhen's heart was hidden deeply, but now he is no longer I want to hide, but if I don't shy away from it, I'm afraid I won't be able to pretend to be a fool anymore.So he gently blessed Fushen to Jinyu: "Forgive Fujin. It's really not good today, and I'm too lazy. I just want to go back and crooked. If it wasn't for Eunuch Li who said that fourth master fell ill because of the rain last night But she can't struggle." As she said that, Daiyu glanced at Mother Wang behind her.Wang Momo smiled and leaned into Jinyu's ear and said a few words.

Jinyu burst out laughing.Patted Daiyu's hand and said: "Since that's the case, sister, I won't keep you. The girl's family has been very sad these days, and sister should go back and rest. When fourth master recovers, I will take Honghui to the garden Find my sister to play with."

"Okay, sister must come." Daiyu said, then got up to leave.

"Auntie! Auntie—"

Daiyu turned around and saw Honghui turn around from behind the screen, rushed to Daiyu and took her hand and said, "Don't go, aunt, I am calling you."

Daiyu was taken aback, not knowing what Honghui was talking about, so she lowered her head and asked, "Hui'er, what did your Ama ask me to do?"

"I don't know. I was beside Ama just now, and I heard Ama call out in my dream: Yu'er..." Hong Hui shook Daiyu's hand and asked earnestly, "Auntie, isn't Ama calling you? "

Daiyu's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly laughed and said, "That's your mother's name, why did you say it casually? Why don't you apologize to your mother?"

Honghui was taken aback for a moment, then looked back at Jinyu, puzzled.Jinyu knew what Daiyu meant and interpreted 'Yu'er' as 'Yu'er'.But Jinyu knew very well in her heart that Yinzhen called herself 'Jin'er' from the very beginning.

"Hui'er!" Jin Yu hurriedly stepped forward to pull Hong Hui away, and said with a low laugh, "This is what your Ama was talking about in her sleep. You also take it seriously and tell your aunt. Go back soon, be careful Auntie is angry and ignores you."

"Okay, okay, I won't talk anymore. Auntie—take me to play in the garden. I want to fly a kite. I didn't fly the kite you gave me last time. It's because the girls are too stupid!"

Daiyu stood there dumbfounded, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Sister, although the child's mouth is open, but he will not tell lies. Today, sister, I will explain to you. I also know that you are the princess who was sealed by Huang Ama. But our master's I always have you in my heart. If your whole life falls to someone else... Hey! Until then, we don't know what our infatuated master will do! So..." Jinyu said, pulling Daiyu's hand She smiled with her hands, and said with a bitter smile: "Sister, if you want, I will go and tell Huang Ama. I will fight to the death, and I will make it possible for both of you. You enter this door, and I will take this seat." Let you..."

"Sister!" Daiyu hurriedly interrupted Jinyu, looked at her firmly, and said word by word: "I don't want to."

"Sister—" Jinyu thought of all kinds of consequences, but only this one.These years Yinzhen's affection for her should be moved even if it is a stone, let alone Daiyu?

"Sister, I don't want to. You are fourth master's concubine Fujin, you are now, and you will be in the future." Daiyu smiled happily, looking at the swaying flowers outside: "I also have someone in my heart, who is that person my sister compares to?" Everyone knows. Now I simply say something shameless—this life, no, and the next life, if possible, it should be the next life—I just want to be with him, hand in hand, until I grow old. "

"Oh, my silly girl." Jinyu smiled and looked around.The nurse took Hong Hui away long ago, and there was no one else around.So I simply took Daiyu's hand and sat down in the yard, and said with a smile: "Every time you talk about him these years, you always say that he is still alive, he is not dead, and he will definitely come back to you. But it has been seven years It's over, when will he come back? You will be 14 years old after this year? When you are 15 years old, I am afraid that the emperor will marry you. My silly sister, will you still be like this by then? Tell the emperor?"

"Sister..." Daiyu chuckled, leaned close to Jinyu's ear, and whispered, "He's already back. If you don't believe me, ask Fourth Master. Fourth Master saw him last night."

Jinyu stood there stupidly as if being shocked by an electric shock, and smiled for a long time: "You girl, you lied to me again, right? You know that the fourth master never mentions Xuan Ning's name at home, so tell me to ask him ?”

"Sister, don't you believe me?" Daiyu shook her head with a smile, "I can't help it if you don't believe me. I'm leaving, sister just put your heart in your belly and be your best friend."

"None of you told me the truth, making it difficult for me to tell the truth from the fake. Forget it, if you don't want to, just pretend that I didn't say what I said just now. Maybe the three of us are not destined to be together, but we are still good sisters. Your business is my business. We must not settle for this."

"There is only the day when my sister doesn't treat me as a sister, but there is no day when I don't treat my sister as a sister." Daiyu said, then got up and said goodbye, went out the second door and got into the carriage, and said goodbye to Jinyu and went back to the garden .

Yinzhen fell into a deep sleep, and broke out in sweat again.It wasn't until evening that he woke up. The fever on his body gradually receded, and some blood color returned to his face.Jin Yu hurriedly ordered someone to bring the porridge over, and fed him a spoonful of it himself. After the extremely blessed Jin Gege came to greet him, they each retreated. Only his husband and wife sat opposite each other in the room.

"Grandpa, how do you feel about yourself?"

"It's okay." Yinzhen looked at Jinyu who was quietly in front of him, and his heart suddenly became peaceful. Those torrents and intrigues seemed to have nothing to do with her. No matter how he treated her, she would always look at her with a smile like this I never asked what happened, just guarded by my side as always.He suddenly felt that he had turned in a circle and returned to the beginning.The past six years have been very tiring and fulfilling, but only at this moment did I realize that everything is not important, the important thing is that Jinyu and Honghui are still by my side.So he slowly stretched out his hand to hold Jinyu's hand, and asked softly, "Where's Hui'er?"

"Nurse is carrying me down to feed. Master, are you hungry? If you want something to eat, I'll ask the servants to prepare it."

"have you eaten?"

"not yet."

"Then I'll be with you."

"Okay." Jinyu smiled knowingly, took a long gown and put it on Yinzhen, and helped him get out of bed slowly.
