The old man in the imperial city

The emperor began to stay alone in the Qianqing Palace, and the palace people were very puzzled by the sudden fall of favor of the imperial concubine.After several inquiries, it turned out that the imperial concubine suffered from asthma again, coughing every night and unable to sleep comfortably, so the emperor moved to the palace.

Then everyone found that although the emperor stayed alone and occasionally went to Kunning Palace to sit and sit, he still summoned the imperial concubine every two or three days during the day, so they still didn't have much hope.

Because of the imperial concubine's asthma, the empress dowager exempted the imperial concubine from paying her respects, and Yinhu suddenly had a lot of free time. In addition to pretending to be sick, she likes to run to Changchun Palace during the day to enlighten the second elder brother.

After a long time, Concubine Ning also saw that the imperial concubine really loved the second elder brother, and she realized it self-righteously, maybe this elder sister who had passed the fifth service was planning to win over her son to compete with the fourth elder brother born by the queen.Although the imperial concubine does not have the backing of the queen mother, she has the emperor's pity on her. If the emperor Ai Wuji also likes the second elder brother, what is the position of the crown prince?

So Concubine Ning would half-truthfully lament that all men in the world are unlucky when Yinhu was teasing the second elder brother, and she was overwhelmed with new and old loves in a few days.He also said that the concubine Chen disappeared for no apparent reason shortly after Emperor Taizong went to war. The harem could not relax for a while, and finally persuaded her to go to Qianqing Palace to send soup to the emperor, so that the emperor should not forget Chengqian Palace.

Yinhu was also entangled, once Yinzhen left, he could only be caught in the disputes of the harem, no wonder Yuxiu didn't like others to give him women back then, and he couldn't help himself if he didn't compete for favor.

Impatient to hear Concubine Ning's suggestion, Yinhu left the Changchun Palace, but suddenly she was very interested in going to Chuxiu Palace to see the third elder brother.

Concubine Tong's Chuxiu Palace has been empty for a long time, but Yinzhen came here twice when she first possessed her body.After the queen's fourth elder brother was born, even the palace servants in Chuxiu Palace began to show some slights in their expressions.

A child who has no love from his father and no mother always knows things early, but the third elder brother has been able to kowtow respectfully to the imperial concubine for a long time in a year, and looked at the concubine mother with wet eyes. Gone is the timid look.

Concubine Tong knows how to make the third elder brother show the most intelligent side in front of people. She guides the third elder brother to recite the thousand-character prose in a very casual way.

Yinhu suddenly understood why the fourth child was beaten to death and refused to go to Chuxiu Palace. Every time he came here, he had to be bowed down by the old man, so he couldn't resist it.

But he had to think more about the second uncle. It is definitely not a good thing for the second uncle to be close to the second elder brother by the imperial concubine. Even the queen mother would only think that she was wooing a concubine with children, and would not He only stared at Chengqian Palace with all his heart.

Hey, he really isn't good at women in the harem, he can't help but go to Qianqing Palace to listen.

After only two small sittings, the third elder brother and the imperial concubine became familiar, and would call out in a soft and childlike voice: "The imperial concubine eats oranges."

Concubine Tong also said to the third elder brother: "Do you still remember that your imperial concubine Erniang hugged you last year?"

The third elder brother will reply: "I remember." Then nod to express affirmation.

Yinhu is sure that such a young child can't remember things, it's hard for him to learn so well.He really wants to give birth to a son and follow this old path?It's not easy to be the fourth son's son.

This went on and on for a month, the weather turned cold, and the preparations for Princess Kong's marriage to Prince Xiang were almost done. In order to show the empress dowager's kindness, Kong Sizhen was promoted from Heshuo Gege to Princess Heshuo.

Of course, the title of Fujin on the first side is impossible, Yinzhen can only regret it in private, he really wants to humiliate King Xiang Fujin who had trouble with Lao Ba before.

Excusing the issue of Pingnan's candidate, the emperor visited Chengqian Palace again, but heard that the imperial concubine didn't even have breakfast, so she went to Changchun Palace.

The emperor became dissatisfied, isn't the eighth brother and the second elder brother too sticky?It's not your own, enough is enough, don't you understand, when the time comes to bring disaster to the second elder brother, I don't even have time to cry when I see you.

The emperor asked people to go to Changchun Palace to send a message to the imperial concubine, but when they came back, they said that the imperial concubine took Concubine Ning to Chuxiu Palace together, and the message had already been sent.

Yinzhen thinks about it, it's better to chase the man back, and let the imperial concubine go to the Qianqing Palace after returning to the palace.

The emperor was full of grievances and found a way to vent, and asked the maid who seemed to be called the green seat, why didn't the imperial concubine eat breakfast and you didn't give more advice?

All the servants and servants in the palace knelt down to admit their mistakes, but the imperial concubine dared to lift the emperor's table when she was so stubborn.

The emperor got angry, then changed his face and told the small kitchen to hurry up and send hot things to the Chuxiu Palace to fill the stomach of the imperial concubine, and the master was not allowed to go to the Qing Palace on an empty stomach.

The palace man responded with a muffled smile.

Yinzhen felt embarrassed, complained that the tea was too cold and the chair was too hard, and strode away majestically.

As a result, Yinhu still went to Qianqing Palace on an empty stomach.

The emperor has long been used to being obedient to his younger brother, and as soon as he said "too little about his body", he stopped immediately under Yinhu's attention, and turned to business: "Zhou Peigong has been found. After his mother is gone, Zhou Peigong will only be a state servant. Just dawdling. It’s been like this for six or seven years, and there’s not a single bit of political achievement that can be promoted.”

Yinhu felt that the fourth brother had changed, and he said bluntly: "Is there nothing else to say about the fourth brother? Aren't you always a leader, arbitrarily discerning and discerning talents? There is no fame, and that Tian Wenjing is also against all opinions."

Yinzhen sighed: It seems that Lao Ba has not finished entangled, so he speaks so impolitely.

But finally Yinhu sent it to Qianqing Palace by himself, and he didn't care about the individual tone of voice, so the emperor automatically changed the subject: "You have been busy all afternoon and don't even eat anything, and it happened that I asked them to prepare two cups of longan soup. Use some with me."

As usual, the two used various excuses to get bored for more than half an hour, what should they do.

The emperor was silly for a while and began to worry again. Although it is very fresh not to see each other for a day, it is still more to my taste.It's not a problem for the old man to refuse to discuss politics and go to the harem every day. Should I imply that enough is enough for him?

Or should I just move back to Chengqian Palace?

You can't hold back yourself by acting for the Mongols, right?

The emperor thought about it for a while, and then Wu Liangfu came to report, saying that he was asking for an audience outside the main hall of the Imperial Hospital.

Yinzhen announced that the imperial concubine was entering the Qianqing Palace, and asked, "What is the situation of the imperial concubine, you are not allowed to deceive, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

The emperor thought that his attitude was amicable and his tone was calm, but who knew that the imperial concubine couldn't stand the emperor's staring eyes, and knelt down and begged for mercy: "The emperor forgives the death crime, it's not that the minister didn't know about it, it's really the imperial concubine who ordered the minister to shut up , otherwise it will be bad for the little elder brother."

What little brother?

Yinzhen suspected that he had heard it wrong, so he asked again: "What little brother, you get up and answer, and tell me clearly, but I will punish your nine clans for hiding something."

The imperial doctor didn't dare to raise his head, so he simply came up with the idea: the imperial concubine's Ping'an pulse had slippery a month ago, but the imperial concubine strictly ordered the ministers to keep silent, saying that she wanted to tell Long Live herself, and ordered the ministers not to reveal a single word.It's just that I feel that the matter of the emperor's heir is of great importance, and delaying for several days is already a felony, so I report it.

Yinzhen can fully imagine the means and motives of Lao Ba threatening Tai Hospital to shut up.

He felt that he had been a big fool once. During the time when he and Lao Ba talked about living in separate palaces, Lao Ba behaved very strangely. Maybe he had already noticed something strange in him, but he refused to face it.

Had he known that he would have moved out with Old Ba, he would never have said that he would move out!

He entrusted the Tai Hospital to Lao Ba with peace of mind, and acquiesced that they teamed up to deceive the Compassion Ning Palace, not for the purpose of letting Lao Ba and the Tai Hospital hide it from him.For such a big matter, Lao Ba has kept silent about it until now, so he is not afraid of someone's tricks when he runs around the palace every day?

Out of his wits, the emperor asked the imperial concubine about her pulse, only remembering the month, and also asked if the imperial concubine could survive until the time of delivery.

The imperial doctor assured that although the imperial concubine's foundation is weaker, she has been recuperating properly in the past year, perhaps because the previous grief has been relieved.As long as you are more careful in your daily diet, you will be guaranteed to reach full term smoothly.

Only then did the emperor give up his plan to immediately arrest Lao Ba and not let him get out of bed.

It seems that none of the children Nian raised with this method survived, but the clumsy Niu Hulu gave birth to a very strong one.

But how can the Niu Hulu family compare with Lao Ba?

Yinzhen pinched his fingers and counted three times. This birth was almost two months after the fourth elder brother landed. At that time, the eighth brother refused to drink any medicine. mean?

Thinking of taking the medicine, the emperor couldn't sit still. It's not just the problem of not drinking the medicine, he can't even take his breakfast and lunch well!So the emperor drove the imperial concubine back to Chengqian Palace like burning his butt.

The weather in mid-October is hot and sometimes cool, changing day by day.A few days ago, I had to use a cool chair, and these days, I need to lay soft cushions.

Yinhu sat in the yard basking in the sun, as if he had neither seen the emperor nor heard the voices of greetings from all over the yard.

Yinzhen suddenly felt that the atmosphere was a bit bleak, so he waved everyone away and stepped forward alone, and pulled a string of lapis lazuli eighteen arhat bracelets from his wrist like a magic trick, and held them in front of his younger brother: "The Huguo Temple was opened, and I brought Qiqi 49 Day, I forgot to give it to you first."

Yinhu turned to look at him when he heard the words, and then went to look at the bracelet: "This is out of control, only the emperor can use it."

Yinzhen held the pearl in his palm and rubbed it back and forth: "I remember that in your life, a stone smaller than a broad bean was dropped in your purse as a treasure. If you lost it once and caused a storm all over the city, you will have to find it back. In this life I will give you whatever you like, but at worst, wear it next to your body so that no one can see it.”

Yinhu's thoughts drifted away when he heard the words, the purse was made by Guo Luoluo himself, and he didn't give a good face after losing it for two days.The beads were found in Laojiu's antique shop. They are very eye-catching antiques, and they have only been in my heart for many years.

But he can't say these things.

He hasn't slept well in the past few nights, and some sentences are rolling on the tip of his tongue.

Yinzhen still said: "I still have a string of agarwood beads on my wrist, which is an old thing, but...but you don't need agarwood now, and besides, I didn't hold the hands, so it doesn't show my sincerity to you."

Yinhu was silent for a while, but still said: "Fourth brother, where was Lao Jiu buried in the end?"
