[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

Shuwan took Fourteen Fujin to the main hall to meet the queen mother, and the queen mother sat up from the bed when she saw them coming.

"It's not the first day, and it's not the fifteenth day. Why did you enter the palace?" the queen mother asked Fourteen Fujin.

Fourteen Fujin hurriedly went to help her, "Sister-in-law Huang said you were sick, I was worried, so I came here immediately. Mother-in-law, are you feeling better now?"

The queen mother smiled faintly, "It's much better, your sister-in-law has taken good care of me, so you don't have to worry about it."

Fourteen Fujin said: "Mother Huang'er is rarely sick, how can I not miss it? Mother Huang'er, I will stay in the palace to take care of you for a while!"

This was an impromptu idea of ​​Fourteen Fujin. She stayed in the palace to take care of the empress dowager and fulfill her filial piety. Second, she could help the empress dowager to share the burden because of the hard work of the empress dowager.

The Queen Mother waved her hand, "No, there are so many people serving me, I am not missing you. If you stay here, what will you do at home? My illness is not serious, but it's just that my body doesn't adapt to the change of seasons. Just lie on the bed for a few days and I'll be fine. "

Fourteen Fujin looked at the thick quilt on the Empress Dowager, and then at the burning brazier in the room.

It's not autumn yet, and this room is the best palace in Ningshou Palace, with plenty of sunlight and warmth in the room.The empress dowager is so afraid of the cold, how can this be that she is not suitable for changing seasons?It is clear that the body is exhausted, and it must be exhausted of energy and blood.

Fourteen Fujin sighed. The relationship between her and the Queen Mother's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not harmonious, but after all, they have been together for so many years. Seeing the Queen Mother become ill like this, Fourteen Fujin feels very uncomfortable.

The Queen Mother took Fourteen Fujin to ask her about her family and her children, but she didn't ask Fourteen Elder Brother.

Shuwan thought, maybe she was here, and the Queen Mother was too embarrassed to ask.She found an excuse to hide, leaving room for the Queen Mother and Fourteen Fujin to talk privately.

As soon as Shuwan left, the Empress Dowager immediately grabbed Fourteen Fujin's hand.

"What's the matter with the old fourteenth? How did it get out that he led his troops back to Beijing privately? Who spread the news? Has he found out?"

The Fourteenth Fujin hurriedly comforted the Empress Dowager, "Don't worry, Empress Dowager, it's just a rumor, no one believes it."

"If you tell a lot of lies, it can become true, not to mention that this is..." The queen mother said anxiously, "You go back and tell the old fourteen, let him investigate carefully, the people around him must have slipped up! "

Fourteen Fujin was also in a hurry, "Emperor Niang, there is no way to check this! At that time, Elder Fourteen brought back tens of thousands of people, so there were always one or two smart people who could guess what Elder Fourteen was thinking. They Drunk and talking nonsense, who can find out the source?"

The queen mother was so angry that her head became dizzy, and she fell on the bed with her head up.

The Fourteenth Fujin hurriedly persuaded: "Emperor Niang, don't worry, Empress Empress, it's just a rumor, nothing will happen."

She thought to herself, Queen Mother is a little stubborn, but also very clear-headed, it is really not easy to fool her.

She thought about it and decided to move Shuwan out.

"The emperor's sister-in-law said that she will not push the fourteenth elder brother out. With her words, why is the queen's mother worried?"

The queen mother shook her head and said nothing.

The emperor is concerned about the blood relationship, so he will not push out the fourteenth elder brother for the time being, but what if things get out of control?

The queen mother has lived in the palace for so many years, and she deeply understands that in the face of power, kinship is as thin as paper.

When that time comes, she won't intercede with Brother Fourteen, it's all done by him himself, and he can't blame others.

The Fourteenth Fujin enlightened the Empress Dowager in the Ningshou Palace, and the Fourteenth Elder Brother handed over a sign asking to see the Emperor.

The emperor spared time to see him, and the fourteenth elder brother said auspicious words when he entered the door.

"Greetings to the emperor, the emperor is blessed and safe. How is the emperor's health recently? Seeing that the weather is getting colder every day, you should pay attention to your health..."

The fourth elder brother interrupted him impatiently, "Okay, don't talk about what you have. If you have something to say, hurry up, I only give you two quarters of an hour, and I have other things in a while."

Elder Fourteen hurriedly said: "Fourth Brother, the rumors outside have nothing to do with me, you have to make the decision for me!"

The fourth elder brother sneered, "It has nothing to do with you, does it have something to do with me? Could it be that I sent people to spread rumors that you led troops to rebel for me?"

Brother Fourteen said humbly, "I didn't mean that..."

He presented a brochure, "These are my confidantes. These people all know about the fact that I led the troops back to Beijing. I marked up anyone suspected of leaking secrets with a Chinese ink pen."

Su Peisheng took the notebook and handed it to the emperor, who sneered, "You have finally done something useful!"

Elder Fourteen hurriedly said: "It's good if I can help Fourth Brother..."

This time, he has let go of his old background, and only asks the emperor to let him go and help him again.

The fourteenth elder brother still didn't forget to shirk his responsibility, "At that time, when I led the troops back to Beijing, I was actually bewitched by others. Myna's confidant sent a letter to the northwest to incite and confuse me. I was confused for a while, and this made a big mistake."

The fourth elder brother mercilessly exposed him, "Flies don't bite seamless eggs, and people don't put a knife on your neck. In the final analysis, it's your problem."

Brother Fourteen didn't dare to refute, he nodded timidly, "Yes, the emperor is right, it's my problem."

The fourth elder brother looked at the list on the brochure, and suddenly realized, "You said...it was Lao Ba's confidant who wrote to you to confuse you."

"Yes!" Elder Fourteen nodded, and he followed Fourth Elder Brother to call Old Ba, "Old Ba's confidant said that Huang Ama is dying, so I was moved."

Fourth elder brother: "So, besides your confidants, there is also the old eighth who knows that you are leading troops back to Beijing!"

The fourteenth brother understood, "The old man made those rumors, so I'll just say it! Well, why would someone spread this, and my confidants are also involved in this matter, unless they don't want to live, otherwise how could they betray me !"

The fourth elder brother said angrily: "Why didn't you say such an important matter earlier!"

Fourteenth brother was still a little bit wronged, "It's all in the past, I forgot... Who would have thought that the starlings have been imprisoned, and he still doesn't give up? Besides, fourth brother, didn't you think it was him? !"

The fourth elder brother scolded angrily: "There are too many people targeting me! Who is he? Do I have to think about him every day?"

The fourteenth brother quickly admitted his mistake and apologized, "Yes, yes, I was taken advantage of by others because I didn't live up to it, so let the fourth brother calm down."

The fourth elder brother looked at him more and more annoyed, "Get out of the palace, stay at home honestly, I don't want to see you!"

The fourteenth elder brother rolled away in a hurry, leaving the mess to the fourth elder brother, causing him to be devastated.

The fourteenth elder brother was expelled from the palace, and the fourteenth Fujin was persuaded to go back by the queen mother.

In the evening, the tired fourth brother returned to Yongshou Palace, and Shuwan was sitting at the table in a daze with a few pieces of letter paper.

"Huh? You came back early today." Shuwan said, "There are so many things going on in the court, and there are rumors about Brother Fourteen, why did you come back earlier than usual?"

The fourth elder brother sat beside Shuwan, leaning wearily on her shoulder.

"I'm so tired, I have to go back to you and have a rest."

Shuwan tilted her head to look at him, you are using me as a charger!

She smiled, "I heard that elder brother Fourteen has entered the palace, is he mad at you again?"

The fourth elder brother said: "He has always been annoying, and I'm used to it. His entry into the palace this time can be regarded as pointing out a way for me. The rumors have some clues, and it should be the old eighth."

Shuwan nodded, "It's easy to know who did it."

"Yeah! I guessed that it might be him, and he should have done what happened in Jiangnan. Hmph, he only knows these little tricks, spreading rumors to intimidate people."

Shuwan thought in her heart: Gossip is not a small trick, people like to talk about their parents, and the secrets of the royal family are even more attractive.The first emperor passed on the throne smoothly, such a story is too boring, there must be some twists and turns to make it interesting!As for whether these rumors are true or not, no one pays attention, as long as they are exciting enough.

Fourth elder brother looked down and saw the letter paper in Shuwan's hand, he asked casually: "What is this?"

"Oh, this is a letter from Xiaobao."

The fourth elder brother was too lazy to read, so he asked Shuwan to tell him. "What did he say? Is it going well in Jiangnan?"

Shuwan nodded, "Everything is going well for him in Jiangnan. He has caught several scholars who spread the rumors, and he has some ideas about cracking the rumors. It will take many days for this letter to be sent to the capital. Take action, things should calm down now!"

Shuwan sighed, "He's done a good job with his official affairs, but there are some problems with his personal affairs."

The fourth elder brother asked: "What's wrong?"

Shuwan unconsciously picked the letter paper with her fingers, "Xiaobao said that officials in Jiangnan are bribing him."

"It's normal. Jiangnan is rich, and the officials there are very rich. This kind of human relationship is very common in Jiangnan."

Shuwan said uncomfortably: "It's fine if you only send gold, silver and jewelry. Those officials sent a lot of beauties."

The fourth elder brother smiled and said: "This is really flattering on the horse's leg. You and I know our Xiaobao's temperament. He is so lazy, how can he accept beautiful women? A delicate girl can't lift her shoulders or lift her hands , I have to be pampered when I bring it home, Xiaobao won't accept it!"

Shuwan's expression was a little strange, "You guessed wrong, Xiaobao took it, didn't he take one or two, he took them all."

The fourth elder brother bounced, and his wife's soft shoulders stopped leaning.

"Take it all?"

"Yes, no matter who sends it, no matter how it looks, as long as someone sends it, he will accept it." Shuwan said helplessly, "Xiaer also wrote me a letter secretly. She thinks that Xiaobao is doing this. not too good."

Now Xiaobao's reputation in Jiangnan is very bad, mentioning Xiaobao can basically be equated with a womanizer.

Brother Si frowned, "He's so lazy, he doesn't even bother to get married, and he accepts women as gifts for him? What kind of magical power does this Jiangnan have? He fell too fast!"

Shuwan spread her hands and shrugged, "Don't ask me, I have never been to Jiangnan, I don't know what magic power Jiangnan has. I trust Xiaobao, my son has a good character, he must have other intentions in taking those girls. I am Worry! How can I explain it to my future daughter-in-law? The little girl hasn’t passed out yet, so don’t cry at home and pass out.”
