Force a good concubine

The emperor slept very deeply this time, and when he woke up, it was already half past Shen.Cheng Siniang greeted the emperor through the curtain, and reported to the emperor while opening the curtain: "Young master slept well today. I heard that I didn't have lunch. The old lady of Ningshou Palace sent someone to look at it and invite Wei The manager went to the Ningshou Palace to ask questions. The old lady has an order, the young master has been working too hard recently, and he is not allowed to meet with the director today, so he wants to rest in the palace for a day."

In his sleep, the emperor faintly felt the voices of people moving around in the hall, but his eyelids were so heavy that they seemed to be glued together, and he couldn't lift them up at all, so he simply ignored them and continued to sleep. Unexpectedly, it was the Queen Mother who sent someone over. After the secretary's clothes waiter had finished washing and changing, he called Wei Fengchun for questioning.

"Return to my master." Wei Fengchun's tone was exactly the same as Cheng Siniang's, with two timid eyes, as if he had been frightened by something in Ningshou Palace, "then the empress dowager called the imperial doctor to ask questions, and the servants followed suit One ear. The imperial doctor is saying that the young master is too exhausted, coupled with depression and stagnation, and needs to rest. The old lady sent someone to the cabinet and Luan Yisi to withdraw the meal card today and ask the young master to rest for a while Rest. From tomorrow to the Winter Sacrifice, we will stop talking for a while, and the directors are not allowed to see anyone for more than two hours, so that I can recuperate for a while. I heard that the cabinet ministers were a little reluctant at first, but they just heard that the imperial doctor was talking about Xiao If I don't rest and recuperate, I'm afraid I'm going to have an old illness, so I won't make a sound. The old lady said, she also thinks that the young master has become thinner than in July, and if I ask about safety and exemption, the young master can just stay in the Qinghe Hall Eat well and sleep well, and when you gain weight, you can go see her again."

During the Great Dynasty, Zheng Tingji's case had been thoroughly resolved, and several disaster relief work was coming to an end. Most of the rest in front of him were ordinary ministries. On the first day of the new year, there was another Chengjue examination to be presided over, and it was really necessary to recharge your batteries. The emperor thought about it carefully, then nodded, and according to the queen mother's wishes, ordered the female historian to put the memorial aside, and turned to see Wei Fengchun hugging him. Fuchen stood by the side, still a little confused, so he said to him: "But what did the Queen Mother say?"

Wei Fengchun shivered, but didn't answer, just forced a smile: "The old lady ordered the imperial dining room to follow the example of Ningshou Palace, and prepare a table of meals for the young master, can the young master be more advanced?"

The empress dowager has the most disciplined temperament, presumably this time Wei Fengchun suffered a lot, the emperor knew it in his heart, so he didn't ask any more questions, and ate his meal calmly, seeing that it was time to light the lamp, but Gu Yuan never saw him, casually said: "Ah Has Yuan rested?"

Wei Fengchun knelt on the ground trembling in response: "Returning to my young master, the old lady said that Miss Gu and Li Nushi didn't serve her well, so she wants to—"

He was still hesitating, but the emperor had already stood up: "What do you want?!"

"I have to re-learn the rules before coming to Yuqian—"

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" The emperor was shocked and angry, and immediately ordered the chariot to pass.Wei Fengchun kowtowed and stopped him, "Master, sir, the old lady of the empress dowager still had something to say when she was recruiting people. She said she would send them back in the evening after she had taught her a lesson. Now the palace gate is about to release the key. The younger one has already sent Wei Lian I went to inquire, young master, wait for the news first? Wouldn’t it be even more detrimental to Miss Gu by mobilizing people like this?”

He spoke bluntly in a hurry, the emperor was stunned, and a sneer suddenly appeared on his lips: "Except for you and Cui Chengxiu, it's okay to use the rules of Anshen Tang to plot against her, who else is so bold?" Luo Han sat down on the couch, and took a look at Wei Fengchun, "I'm busy with government affairs these days, and I don't have time to take care of him. Although I asked you to take care of her food and clothing as usual, I never asked about it. This is my fault. I got it today." Kong'er, you told me about A Yuan's recent situation from beginning to end, and if you missed a word, I will find out and ask for your head."

That look was almost cold to the bone, Wei Fengchun was so frightened that his calf twisted, and he didn't dare to hide it. He explained what he saw one by one. Seeing that the emperor's face was gradually turning pale, he kowtowed desperately: "The servants just persuaded Miss Gu a few times. In other words, it is also for the sake of the early reconciliation of the young lady and the young master, there is absolutely no other thought!"

"You are persuading well," the emperor sneered slightly, "Is Cui Chengxiu bothering A Yuan with such rhetoric every day?"

"Boss Cui and Miss Gu don't see each other very often, and they only hang around Li Nvshi." Wei Fengchun replied with a low eyebrow and pleasing to the eye. Li Nushi is fighting Miss Gu, right?"

This sentence made the emperor confused, and she thought about it carefully before realizing something: "That Li Wanniang? What's wrong with her? Could it be that I didn't pursue her just because she stayed in the palace all night?"

Wei Fengchun nodded his head trembling, the emperor was so angry that he couldn't sit still, seeing him kowtowing in front of him, he wished he could kick him out of the palace.She knew that Wei Fengchun and Cui Chengxiu had ulterior motives in assigning Anshentang to Gu Yuan, but she was greedy to spend more time with Gu Yuan every day, so she didn't ask too much, but she didn't want to send out so many worms in private I can't bear to listen to Ying Gou's verbal tricks, let alone Gu Yan?

"In the future, you are not allowed to make up your own minds about my affairs with her." The emperor said with a cold face, "A Yuan likes to practice calligraphy, so let her practice without disturbing you. When I practice calligraphy, do you dare to say such nonsense?"

Wei Fengchun kowtowed repeatedly when he heard this: "Your servant understands! From now on, my servant will serve Miss Gu as her master, and I won't dare to say what I have or what I don't have anymore!"

"Tell Cui Chengxiu, he is the same." The emperor's eyes fell on the face of the chiming clock, thought for a while, and stood up again, "Send someone to Ningshou Palace again, if there is no news in the stick of incense, go to Luan Yisi is on duty to pick up the keys, I will go there myself!"

"Yes." Wei Fengchun squeezed his sweat, and looked outside the hall door for a cup of tea time, only to see a row of palace lanterns coming towards the Qinghe Hall, passing through the hanging flower gate and entering the yard, seeing Gu Yuan and Li Wanniang among them, and seeing Gu Yuan Although Yuan's face was pale, he walked calmly, and nothing seemed to be wrong, so he breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and entered the palace door to report to the emperor: "Miss Gu is back. The slaves watched coldly. , it doesn’t seem like she has suffered anything, I think the old lady is kind, she just taught her a little bit.”

However, the taste of these words must be uncomfortable after thinking about it.If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have arranged for her any errands. While the emperor was relieved, he couldn't help but regret: let her live in the enclosure under the name of bedroom secretary. If you are on a mission, you will have no reason to be blamed. When you encounter something like today, can't you just get away easily?

The emperor felt remorseful and sad. When he saw Madam Xu enter the palace, he didn't show anything. He offered a seat and tea as usual, and asked about the Queen Mother's daily life. The mission is what I promised. Recently, I have been busy with government affairs, and I have something on my mind that I can't rest, but it has nothing to do with Gu Yuan and the others. Why don't you—"

There is a saying that if you care about it, you will be chaotic. The emperor looked calm, but his words leaked.Seeing the emperor from childhood to adulthood, Xu Mama saw some clues from the clues, her face remained calm, but she suddenly understood in her heart that what Li Wanniang said in front of the queen mother was probably true, she was surprised at the same time , A trace of anger also rose in my heart: Sure enough, there are slaves who play the trick of inviting pets who want to welcome or refuse, relying on the emperor's love for the first time!

The emperor was devoted to court affairs, so he was not familiar with these tricks, but the empress dowager and Nanny Xu were used to them.However, the emperor is now at a time when he is passionate, so it is not easy to tell the truth, it is better to directly draw out the fire from Hu Ruanniang's tricks, and Madam Xu just bowed slightly to the emperor: "Although it is the young master who nodded, After all, these two servants were also incomplete. The old lady punished them to kneel at the gate of the palace for an hour. Follow the rules and deal with them together."

"Yes." The emperor stood up and listened, and his heart finally fell to the ground. Thinking of Gu Yan kneeling for two hours in such weather, he frowned secretly, and was planning to send someone to the imperial pharmacy to get the medicine, but he didn't see Madam Xu Retiring, the emperor waited patiently for a cup of tea, and finally couldn't help it, said: "The key to the palace gate has been released, and I sent someone to send Madam Xu back?"

Madam Xu was confident, and sat firmly on the small stool: "The old lady has a decree today, to ask the servants to take care of them in the Qinghe Hall overnight, look at the actions of these servants - the young master won't be bored by the nagging of the servants, right? "

If we forcefully drive people back now, there will be suspicions of trying to cover up. The emperor thought for a while, and only smiled at Madam Xu: "What did Madam say? I still remember taking a nap in Ningshou Palace when I was a child, Mama told me about it." What about the story! Mammy is the most reliable person around the queen mother, with Mammy teaching me, why should I worry about it?"

She chatted with Nanny Xu for a few more words, and then passed the bathing service according to the usual practice. Nanny Xu was obliged to take care of it in the middle. Everything seemed to be the same as before, and everything seemed to be different from the past. The emperor bathed and changed clothes When she came out, it was Mother Xu who led her through the hall and into the Longxi Pavilion.The emperor didn't feel sleepy, but seeing that the imperial tent had been lowered, and Nanny Xu was standing guard at the entrance of the hall, he could only smile wryly, raised his hand to lift the curtain, and suddenly felt cold all over his body.

However, Nanny Xu's voice was clearly discernible in my ears: "Master has reached his age, and he can't avoid important matters of human relations. According to the old lady's will, since the younger master sees that Hu Sixi is serving well, it is better to take a step closer. Lift her up!"

Gu Yan's eyes were closed tightly, a line of tears slipped from the corners of his eyes, and were hidden in the bright yellow brocade quilt. The emperor let go of his hand unconsciously, and the bright yellow silk cloud dragon tent slipped down from his fingers without a sound. , can't say a word.
