Weak Concubine [Qing Wear + Red House]

As soon as Ning Chuge arrived in the grassland, he found a friend who arrived a few days earlier than himself, and the two hugged each other excitedly and circled around.

"Qiqige, are you okay? Before, we could only talk in letters, but now we can finally meet again."

Qiqige is a tall girl with slightly dark skin. When she smiles, she has two dimples and shows her white teeth.

"I'm fine, I'm just engaged, I'm going to get married every year, I miss you very much at home, and thank you for the gift you gave me, I like it very much!

By the way, let me introduce to you, this is my elder brother Tuo Heqi, who was born with my grandmother.Tuo Heqi, this is the good friend I told you about, Ningchuge, the second daughter of Prince Yong, and Princess Fuhui! "

"I've seen Princess Fuhui!"

Tuo Heqi saluted her.

Ningchuge returned a flat salute, pulled Qiqige and whispered:

"Your brother doesn't look like you, he doesn't seem to talk much!" The elder sister is so cheerful, while the younger brother is so calm, it's impossible to imagine that they are siblings.

Qiqige snickered:

"No, he's like an elm bump, but don't look at him for his few words, but his skills are not bad."

Ningchug's eyes lit up:

"real or fake?"

"Of course it's true, otherwise we'll go hunting together one day, and you'll know when you see it."

"Okay, then I will show you my younger brothers and sisters. My younger brothers and sisters are different from me. They are very quiet. Don't scare them then."

Two good friends are playing and playing together.

Jinyao was also very busy when she first arrived in Chengde.

She has a Zhuangzi in Chengde, which was rewarded by the emperor back then, and it is only one mile away from the palace. This time she came out to live in her own Zhuangzi, so as not to be crowded with the emperor and the others.

The manpower on the Zhuangzi is ready-made, so she doesn't need to worry about it, but some princes Belle Fujin from various tribes who came earlier, after seeing Jinyao's arrival, came to visit one after another, but they kept her busy.

Fortunately, although the daughter is wild, it is still possible to take care of her younger siblings, and Hongzhi is here. Although Hongzhi is not very old, Jinyao has never been disappointed by the things entrusted to him since she was a child, so Jinyao feels relieved. Do your own thing and ask your children to play together.

In the hunting ground, Hong Zhi hugged his younger sister Ji Lan in one hand, and his fifth younger sister Xuan Qi in the other, frowning slightly as he watched the energetic sister in the distance.

Hongyi and his two little brothers collected local materials under the shade of trees and built a house with the branches they picked up.

Xuan Qi also looked at her sister, enviously said:

"Fourth brother, I really want to ride a horse and hunt like my sister!"

Hong Zhi squatted down and looked at Xuan Qi softly:

"Xuan Qi likes to practice martial arts?"

Xuan Qi nodded:

"I like to study literature, and I also like to practice martial arts. My sister is so beautiful when she is riding a horse!"

Hiroshi smiled:

"Then Xuan Qi needs to eat well at ordinary times, so that she can have the strength to practice martial arts, and martial arts is very hard!"

"Xuan Qi is not afraid, Xuan Qi also wants to be like the second sister!"

Hong Zhi fondly stroked her head:

"Xuan Qi is as good-looking as the second sister without martial arts training! Of course, so is Ji Lan!"

Ji Lan has been quietly listening to her brothers and sisters talking, and when she heard that the fourth brother was sorry, she pursed her lips and smiled softly, making the people watching her feel soft, and the younger sister Xuan Qi patted her head decently. :

"Yes, Jilan is the most beautiful, like Erniang!"

Ningchug, who was crazy enough, finally rode over.

A handsome dismounted, and the maids around hurriedly came to catch the horse stiff, and another maid handed her water and a handkerchief to wipe her sweat.

Ningchuge wiped it casually, took a sip of water, then came over and hugged Xuan Qi, and kissed Ji Lan:

"What are you guys talking about?"

Ji Lan shyly hid in the pocket of Hongzhi's shoulder and watched secretly.

Xuan Qi said loudly:

"We are saying that the second sister rides a horse, and I want to learn from the second sister!"

Ning Chuge froze and laughed dryly:

"Er Niang likes those who are capable of both literature and martial arts. Why don't you learn martial arts after you have learned from the books?" Oh my god, if Er Niang knew that she had brought Fifth Sister to the brink, she wouldn't have to deal with herself.

Hong Zhi looked at Xuan Qi with a smile.

Xuan Qi thought for a while:

"Er Niang likes it? Well then, if you want to listen to Er Niang, Xuan Qi should learn literature first and then martial arts!"

Hongzhi praised:

"Xuan Qi is such a good boy, Erniang likes good kids!"

"Uh, is that so? But Erniang likes both Ji Lan and the second sister..." Ji Lan is the most obedient, there is no one in the family who doesn't like her, the second sister must be a good one!

"..."

Ningchuge became angry and pinched his sister's face:

"As long as you say, let's see how I deal with you!"

Xuan Qi slid off her body, and ran to brother Hong Yi with a smile.

Hong Zhi put Ji Lan down, and Ji Lan also went to play with her brothers and sisters.

With only Hongzhi and Ning Chuge left, the smile on Hongzhi's face faded away.

"Second sister will seldom play with Qiqige and Tuoheqi from now on."

Ning Chuge was dumbfounded:

"Unclear, what does this mean?"

Hongzhi looked at her seriously:

"You should also know that you are sixteen years old this year, which is the age to marry in Mongolia, and your identity is what the Mongolians prefer. If you don't want to marry in Mongolia, you should stay with the princes of Mongolia. Some distance is better."

"Hey!" Ningchuge said indifferently:

"Just for this?"

Hongzhi remained silent, and looked sideways at her.

Ningchuge was most afraid of such Hongzhi, and said weakly:

"Okay, didn't you hear rumors that you want to be engaged to me? Besides, it doesn't matter if you marry to Mongolia. Some tribes are so close to Beijing, how much influence can they have?"

"But Erniang doesn't want you to marry to Mongolia!" Erniang doesn't like it, so no matter how good the other party is, it won't work!

Ningchug was not very happy to hear his words:

"Er Niang! Er Niang! Your mouth is full of Er Niang. Do you do what Er Niang tells you to do? Marry whoever Er Niang tells you to marry?"

Hongzhi nodded with unchanged expression:

"That's right! It's not easy for Er Niang to give birth to us and raise us. We should be filial to her!" Naturally, we should listen to her.

"Then who will you help when your daughter-in-law and Erniang have conflicts?" Ning Chuge asked curiously.

Hong Zhi asked:

"Do you think Er Niang is a person who makes a fuss out of nothing and likes to torture his wife?"

"That won't happen."

"That's fine, Erniang is not someone who deliberately finds fault with others, how could she be wrong!"

"..."

Ning Chuge pointed at him and was speechless for a while, before finally sneering:

"Then your daughter-in-law is really pitiful in the future!"

Hongzhi said:

"Why is she pitiful? Just because I didn't stand on her side indiscriminately? As a man and a child, the first thing to do is to honor your mother. If she can't honor my mother with me, then you don't want such a daughter-in-law! You only see other people Poor, have you ever thought about how hard it has been for Er Niang these years, she has put in a lot of hardships that you don't know about to raise our siblings safely!"

Ning Chug disagreed:

"You always say it's not easy for Er Niang, but I don't think it's not easy. With Ama doting on her, and her grandfather and uncles taking care of her, once she enters the mansion, she overwhelms everyone else. easy?"

Hong Zhi: ...

It seems that it's not all good for Erniang to be too capable, look, this doesn't raise my sister so innocently!

Jinyao released people around her children. She didn't know about Ning Chuge at first, but she naturally found out after a few days. She seriously warned her that it was okay to play with the Mongolian princesses, but she was not allowed to play with them. Which boy got closer, she didn't want a Mongolian son-in-law, besides Ning Chuge was still young, so she was not in a hurry to get married now.

Ningchuge wouldn't talk back to Jinyao, so he agreed, and what to do behind the scenes, so angry that Jinyao regretted taking her out.

"We should send her to the temple to eat vegetarian!" he complained to fourth master behind his back.

Fourth master couldn't stop laughing, thinking, if you really want to go to the monastery to eat vegetarian food, you should feel distressed again.

"Ningchug is sensible, don't worry about her all the time, it's rare to come here to relax, I will accompany you to ride a horse tomorrow, just the two of us, without the children."

Jin Yao was amused by him:

"Okay, don't take them!"

The next day, Jinyao went for two laps, and Jinyao finally felt better:

"I don't know why, but the feeling of riding a horse in the grassland is different from that in Zhuangzi!"

"That's natural. The grassland is vast, and there is nothing comparable to Zhuangzi's place, not to mention that this is a pure natural horse farm."

Jin Yao nodded:

"The horses raised here are better than those in other places. I sent a batch of horses to my second brother a while ago, and he wrote to say that they are better than the horses in the army!"

Fourth Master:  …

"Are you still raising horses here? No, how many horses have you raised and sent to the border for your second brother?"

"It's not much. It doesn't cost much to raise it casually. We don't need that much ourselves. Isn't it a waste if we are idle? Why don't we give it to him to replace those old horses and put them in the carts?" Use it."

Fourth Master was speechless again, how much did his Empress Dowager trust Nian Jia and Nian Gengyao?

There were many disasters in various places last year, and the national treasury was tight. Nian Gengyao contributed his dividends from Jinyao in the past few years to the treasury as military pay, and the emperor agreed!

The grain and grass could not be replenished in time, so Jinyao replaced the grain produced by her village with semi-coarse grain and sent it to the border. The emperor also agreed, and now she still uses her horses as war horses, so he really doesn't worry about Nian Tang Yao supported the army to stand on his own?

In other words, even if he became the emperor, he might not trust Nian Gengyao like this.

But the fact is that the emperor believed him in this way.

Rather than saying that the emperor believes in Nian Gengyao's loyalty, it is better to say that he believes more in the relationship between the three brothers and sisters of the Nian family and the upbringing of Mrs. Rong.

He believed that Nian Gengyao's feelings for his mother, younger siblings, wife and children, with them around, Nian Gengyao would never disregard their life or death.

Sure enough, the border has been as stable as ever for so many years, and there are news of small victories from time to time, Nian Gengyao contributed a lot!

This summer vacation time is shorter than before.

The queen mother's health is not very good, and she is sometimes confused. Although most of the time she is clear and bright, Kangxi is also worried about her health.

After staying in Chengde for a month, I started to turn around.

On the way back, Nanny Sun went to the Empress Dowager's car to check her pulse and rub her almost every day.

"How is the queen mother?" Jinyao thought of this boringly this day, and asked about Nanny Sun.
