The Lotus in the Red Chamber

We have to be careful in the future. "

Qingwen was shocked when she heard this, and said to Qiu Wen with a smile on her face: "What can I do, it's obvious that I have fallen out with her, and I will be kicked out at worst, I'm afraid it won't work."

After hearing this, Qiuwen comforted her and said: "What are you afraid of? If you want to be kicked out, Baoyu will definitely be reluctant to part with it and will definitely go to intercede, and isn't there an old lady to back you up?"

"I hope so." Qingwen sighed softly in her heart, if Baoyu really had that kind of heart for her, she would not be wronged by following Baoyu in the future.

Thinking about it, Qingwen got up, sat in front of the vanity mirror and combed her hair, Qiu Wen asked strangely: "It's getting late, where are you going?"

But Qingwen smiled and said, "I'll go to Baoyu's to see, so that he won't worry."

Qiuwen didn't take it seriously when she heard it, Baoyu was probably peeling chestnut shells for his elder sister Hua, how could she have time to worry about her, but after thinking about it, it was rare that Qingwen would take the initiative to find Baoyu, so that It is good for Qingwen to show her face more in front of Baoyu.So he didn't say anything and let her go.

When she was young, Qingwen came back angrily. When Qiuwen saw her, she thought it was Hua Xiren who made Qingwen angry, so she hurriedly asked what happened.But Qingwen didn't want to say more, she just said: "Is it really a good night to explain the words?" After finishing speaking, she lay on the bed but refused to get up.

Out of curiosity, Qiuwen went to Baoyu's room to have a look, and then realized that Xiren was preaching to Baoyu and asked Baoyu to promise her several things. Separate Baoyu from these girls, but Baoyu is confused and agrees.

After hearing this, Qiuwen held back her anger and smiled at them: "It's almost three o'clock, it's time to go to sleep, the old lady sent the nanny to ask, I promised to go to sleep."

After hearing that they had moved out of Jia Mu, the two also agreed to wash up and go to bed.

[Volume [-]. Furong fell into the Red Mansion and her life experience is intriguing: Twelve Yuanchun's thoughts on Furong]

However, after the concubine Yuan concubine returned to the palace, she thought about the scenery in the garden, and thought that if she followed Jia Zheng's temperament after returning to the palace, she would definitely seal up the garden. Now the emperor has always advocated frugality, if he proposes to grant family members to live in the family home, according to the emperor's temperament, he will definitely agree, and maybe he will give some rewards.

Thinking about it, he called Baoqin to wash himself up and went to the door of the imperial study, only to see the most powerful eunuch Xia beside the emperor was guarding the door, and Jia Yuanchun personally stuffed a big night pearl sent home this time In the hands of Eunuch Xia.The eunuch Xia weighed the weight of the pearl in his hand, his face was full of joy, and he quickly said to Jia Yuanchun courteously: "The emperor is not in the imperial study at the moment, if the empress has something to do, please tell the old slave, and the old slave will definitely report to the emperor later. "

Jia Yuanchun sighed in his heart that it was not the right time, thinking that the emperor had not been in his palace for a long time, although the emperor had always been indifferent to the beauties in the harem, he still felt a little uneasy, especially when he heard that the emperor had been in the palace a few days ago. The people below commented that the princess who is loyal to the prince will soon enter the palace to be the empress, if he doesn't grasp the emperor's heart, he may not be far from falling out of favor.So he asked the eunuch Xia gently: "Do you know where the emperor is?"

That Xia Tai listened, but a gleam of light flashed in his eyes for an instant, but it disappeared in an instant, so fast that people could not find it, and he had already put on a flattering smile: "Mother, aren't you embarrassing this old slave? How could this old slave reveal his whereabouts!"

Jia Yuanchun heard what Eunuch Xia said, although on the surface he only said that he was a slave and could not reveal the emperor's whereabouts, but deep down he was telling himself that he was the emperor's personal eunuch and could not detect the emperor's whereabouts. You, a concubine in the harem, should not inquire about these matters of the emperor.

Holding back the anger in his heart, Jia Yuanchun still had a gentle smile on his face and said, "If that's the case, then don't bother Eunuch, but please tell the emperor that Yuanchun has something to ask the Emperor."

Mrs. Xia listened but nodded and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this old slave will definitely tell you what your Majesty said."

Jia Yuanchun left satisfied after hearing this.

Baoqin, who was following Jia Yuanchun, still couldn't move. After leaving the imperial study room, he couldn't help but angrily said to Jia Yuanchun: "Your Majesty, a eunuch like him dares to treat Your Majesty like this. Fortunately, Your Majesty has given so many gifts every time." Give him the treasure, I heard that the second master will give him tens of thousands of taels of silver a year."

After hearing Baoqin's words, Jia Yuanchun covered her mouth, looked around in panic, and when he was sure that no one was there, he let go of his hand, and said to Baoqin with a stern face: "You can say these words." Are you talking nonsense, don't kill me."

Baoqin looked aggrieved, but seeing Jia Yuanchun's stern look, he didn't dare to speak.Seeing Baoqin like this, Jia Yuanchun couldn't help sighing: "He is someone close to the emperor, we can only give less, not more, and there is no impenetrable wall in the palace, if you still want to keep this You must stop talking nonsense."

After hearing this, Baoqin was also afraid for a while, and nodded again and again.

Jia Yuanchun left and said to Baoqin: "Go find the coral tree my mother gave me later and secretly give it to Eunuch Xia. The queen is about to enter the palace. I'm afraid our days will be even more difficult in the future. I only hope that he will be able to mention us a lot in the future because of the many gifts we gave him."

However, after the eunuch Xia saw Jia Yuanchun leaving, he ordered the eunuch Xia outside the door of the imperial study to watch the door carefully, but he ran to a small palace next to the imperial study and asked the two guards outside. After saying hello, he walked into the small palace lightly and slowly.

However, the decoration of this small palace is completely different from other palaces in the palace. It is no longer gorgeous, but some are simple and elegant. There is a small pool in the middle of the palace, and there are beautiful water hibiscus in the pool. What is even more surprising is that , It is obviously a cold winter climate, but the hibiscus in the pool is invincible. A closer look reveals that there is a curl of white air in the pool, which is due to the attraction of hot spring water.After crossing the small white jade bridge, Eunuch Xia walked through the hall and came to the door of the palace's study room, but he didn't move, walking back and forth.

"You old slave, what are you doing outside? Come in soon." A deep male voice came from the study.

Mrs. Xia listened, but pushed open the door with a playful smile on her face, and said to the man behind the desk: "Isn't this old servant afraid of disturbing the emperor's interest in painting?"

After hearing this, Shui Mu put down his pen: "Who is looking for me again?"

Mrs. Xia listened but said contemptuously: "It's the concubine Yuan who even gave the servant a night pearl." After finishing speaking, she took out the night pearl.

Shui Mu could hear the contempt in Eunuch Xia's tone, but he didn't blame him. Instead, he observed the night pearl with great interest.

Seeing that Ye Mingzhu was taken away by Shui Mu, Eunuch Xia felt distressed, but when he saw the painting Shui Mutan put on the table, he was attracted to go away. Seeing the little girl in the painting, he looked narrowly. Shui Mu said: "The emperor is painting the young master again."

Shui Mu neither admitted nor denied, but just asked, "Is there any news from General Feng's residence?"

Mrs. Xia listened and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, you should pity the poor old man. You have to ask this servant several times a day, and this servant also sends people to General Feng's mansion to watch every day, not to mention the young master's movement. A little girl who passes by will not be let go. However, calculating the young master's age, she should be around ten years old now."

Shui Mu also sighed in his heart when he heard Eunuch Xia's words. In a flash, almost seven years passed, and he and Qingwen hadn't seen each other for seven years. It is not allowed to enter. After ascending the throne, I found a master of formation, but the person who came back reported that there was no one in the valley long ago, and Sun Miao had passed away long ago. Originally, I thought that Qingwen would remember her words and come to her, but she did not. no trace.

"By the way, your majesty is going to visit Concubine Yuan today, and she sent this bead." Eunuch Xia interrupted Shui Mu's thoughts.

Shui Mu looked at Eunuch Xia with a dark face, but the eunuch Xia continued without fear: "The slave accepted her gift anyway, if the emperor hadn't gone, I'm afraid he won't give this old slave any more gifts in the future. There are godsons and grandsons outside the old slave's palace to take care of."

After hearing Eunuch Xia's complaint, Shui Mu couldn't help laughing and said, "I haven't calculated how much gift you will receive from the harem in a year. I haven't calculated it with you before. I will make an account book later."

Mrs. Xia listened with a bitter look on her face: "Your Majesty, you should be considerate of this old slave. I still have to serve you on weekdays. You have the heart to let this old slave waste time and energy doing this thing. It is fine if this old slave reports to you directly." gone."

"No." Shui Mu immediately refused, but then put away the painting and wanted to leave.

"Oh, Your Majesty..." Eunuch Xia looked at Ye Mingzhu, who was held by Shui Mu, with a distressed expression.

But Shui Mu hid the Ye Mingzhu in his sleeve and said: "I just thought that the room I prepared for Wen'er lacked the lighting of Ye Mingzhu, so you brought it here, and I will treat it as your tribute to Wen'er."

Mrs. Xia's monitoring seemed to kill him, and her face, which was originally dissatisfied with wrinkles, was even more wrinkled at this moment.

Seeing this, Shui Mu laughed happily: "Come on, put away your miserly look, and Jia Yuanchun will send things over later."

Mrs. Xia listened and immediately put away her sad face, but there was a greedy smile on her face. She didn't know what to give later. The pink gemstone she sent last time was good, but it was confiscated by the emperor. It looks like a hibiscus flower and put it in the bedroom for the little master, no this time
