Concubine Wuning

Yongzheng stayed with Heqing in the courtyard for three months, and after going through the summer, he went back to the palace.

He Qing didn't leave, but settled down in the garden contentedly, refusing to go back.There were news from time to time in the palace, the atmosphere was so smoky, it was rare for San'er not to persuade him, and he would read scriptures to He Qing with a book all day long.Just like He Qing serving the queen mother, she gradually calmed down her heart.

Anyway, He Qing has everything she wants, so there is really no need to fight for it.

There is no shortage of servants in Yuanmingyuan, and even if there is no master, they are taken care of tightly and orderly.He Qing didn't ask too much, and she wasn't dry about anything else, and she didn't have much influence on the House of Internal Affairs and the garden manager.At most, the queen can follow the time, and if there are fresh and various things, the servants can go a little farther and send them over, and that's it.

He Qing's move is to retreat as an advance, and it can be regarded as a little peace of mind for the harem.

For this reason, until Wu Youzhi quietly brought Wu Guozhu and Zhang's family who were retiring in Shanyang County to the capital.And the Fucha family came to greet him, and the moment He brought the elders in, He Qing was stunned for a moment and didn't respond, but in the blink of an eye, she hugged Zhang's tightly with tears in her eyes.Mrs. Fucha talked so much that He Qing's eyes were swollen from crying.

"It's rare to see each other, why are you crying?"

Wu Guozhu stroked his white beard, looked at He Qing's red eyes from crying, and stared.Seeing this, He Qing burst into tears, and Zhang pinched Wu Guozhu's arm angrily, "You old fellow, we are happy to see your daughter, why are you crying?"

He Qing had never seen Mrs. Zhang so tough and fierce in front of her children, with eyes blinking.Zhang's heart hurt even more when she saw it, and he looked He Qing up and down, and said softly, "Our little girl is a noble person, so I can't cry anymore. The crying mother feels uncomfortable!"

Zhang's words got into He Qing's heart, her nose was sour, and her chest was filled with unspeakable emotions, so she nodded fiercely with her lips pursed.

Mrs. Fucha smiled and asked Wu Guozhu and Mrs. Zhang to sit together. After He Qing calmed down, her eyes still had an expression of disbelief, then she glared at Mrs. Fu, full of resentment, "You guys All of them hurt me, you must all come over to see my jokes!"

"How do you say it's harmful?" Seeing that He Qing only used her for surgery, Mrs. Fucha didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I said to make the empress happy for a while, but I said it earlier and made the empress wait. Why don't you send the old man to come here , that's a good thing."

"That's right, just thinking about how we look, I'm also uneasy." Mrs. Zhang was also a little unspeakably excited, and when she recovered, she touched the corners of her eyes with her cuffs.Seeing this action, Wu Guozhu hummed and rolled his eyes.

He Qing is in charge of the garden, now that the gate is closed, there is no need to abide by too strict and unfamiliar rules.

When Wu Youzhi rushed over, He Qing organized a small family banquet in the courtyard.There are only five people from two generations, very simple and casual.But even though Song Kuai is not commensurate with a slave, it is still dominated by He Qing and sits at the top.He Qing pulled Mrs. Zhang and Wu Guozhu to sit beside her, "I never thought you would come. Now that I'm here, I'm still at a loss."

Li's health was so good that He Qing didn't realize that his parents were old until he was happy and mourning.Even the Zhang family is in his sixties, and Wu Guozhu is even more rare.As far as the Han people are not good at martial arts, the two old men look normal and refreshed, which is the most gratifying and joyful.

He Qing was overjoyed, and hurriedly picked up vegetables for Mrs. Zhang and Wu Guozhu. Wu Youzhi got a few chopsticks of meat from Mrs. Zhang due to his contribution, which made He Qing stare at him for a few times.

Seeing him, he was ecstatic, and Wu Youzhi left in a hurry after eating.He Qing sent his parents to the carriage all the way, and then reluctantly returned to the courtyard, feeling very sad, "I didn't know the so-called feeling that I was getting older, but I felt that I was really ashamed when I saw my parents today. .”

"Master just thinks there's nothing new, so it's unavoidably boring." San'er laughed.

He Qing's heart skipped a beat, boring?She has been feeling sleepy for a while, and she seems to be getting more and more demure looking at people, but in fact she always feels that something is missing, she has no energy and does not want to move.Thinking about it now, if the time is longer, I'm afraid she will suffer from heart disease in this quiet courtyard where everyone follows her wishes.

Fortunately, it happened that my family came, which added to my mood.

He Qing was still afraid from the back, after all, he said he was not young, but Guo Xin did not deal with the aftermath, Zhao Xi was still alive, and Hong was never married when he left Beijing.Speaking of it, I feel that I really have no heart, and I am too selfish.

Seeing He Qing's dark face, San'er straightened into a change of clothes, and said he was going to do some activities in the backyard.It was getting late, and He Qing couldn't seriously open up wasteland, so he could only carry the water bottle with a manly face, go up, down, left, and right corners, watered and fertilized, and then returned proudly government.

Liu's Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, he didn't understand that He Qing was tossing himself so mentally in a blink of an eye.San'er was also a little unclear, but simply seeing He Qing like this, he was happy to help bring hot water, and let He Qing wash and change clothes in a serious manner, that's all.

He Qing selfishly felt that her temperament was not quiet, and that she copied the scriptures and recited the Buddha too much, but did not send her state of mind into it, which was a bit scary.Although I still read characters and read them occasionally, I haven't studied piety as before.After thinking about it, San'er came up with some ideas, happily taking advantage of He Qing's inattention, and shelved those first-class Buddhist scriptures one by one.When He Qing found out later, she just laughed it off and was not angry.

After all, Wu Guozhu is different between men and women, so he came here twice during the period.He Qing worried that walking around would hurt the old man's body, even Zhang's, He Qing could only endure the longing in his heart, and kept sending things over.He Qing knew that it was years since they had been close, and knowing that it was convenient to see each other, it was inevitable that her mood would be unstable.It's just that she can't easily walk around the official residence of the court, otherwise He Qing would want to live there with the money.

He Qing felt a little helpless, so Jiang Shifeng ordered to send things over, and said a few words by the way, "The emperor said that the empress is boring alone, not to mention the quiet and deserted courtyard, even if she is filial piety, there is nothing wrong with it."

Jiang Shi served a bag of barley seeds and returned with a full load.With a big wave of He Qing's hand, she doesn't think about other places, but He Qingju can let her take care of it.The houses in the side hall are very cool, but now that the weather is cool, He Qing asked people to rebuild the earth dragon again.The interior decoration of the house was changed one by one until it felt suitable, and then a post was posted, asking Mrs. Zhang and Wu Guozhu to come and live for a while.

Wu Guozhu was quite uncomfortable, he went back and forth for two days, and after drawing with He Qing, he returned to Wufu.Mrs. Zhang sent Wu Guozhu away with a smile, afraid that He Qing would think too much, and comforted him, "It's good that your father and daughter are in love with each other, if not, let's keep you Ama for a few more days?"

He Qing shook her head, and walked back with the help of Mrs. Zhang, "Rules are rules after all. The emperor is kind, and it is a great fortune to accommodate for two more days. Not to mention that there are not many close people in this yard, and I will keep Ama here. Instead, I'm cautious. As long as my mother stays with He Qing for two more days, it will be fine."

In a few days, it's time to send Mrs. Zhang back.It is not suitable for old couples to be separated for too long.What's more, there are several grandchildren and daughter-in-laws in Wufu, which is no worse than Yuanmingyuan.He Qing can think about it, not to mention that she is not the girl who left home in her teens, and when she gets along with her parents, no matter how ups and downs are in her heart, she will not be so impatient and direct.

Two letters came from Hongshi's family, written by Hongshi and Chaoxi.Zhao Xi had a young son, now three sons and one daughter, apart from the important things in the past, she wholeheartedly takes care of the two younger ones.Fortunately, although Zhaoxi has a princess mansion, it has been rooted there for a long time, and none of the former slaves in the palace were submissive under Chaoxi's control.And Hong is traveling in Shandong, sprinkling three big sheets of paper to narrate, but it is a pity that he will not be able to meet He Qing's elders when he leaves Beijing. , and so on.

He Qing smiled and showed it to Mrs. Zhang, seeing this, Mrs. Zhang laughed from ear to ear and kept praising the boy.

The elders are always gentler and more considerate to their grandchildren than their younger generations, He Qingshou must have exposed Hongshi's background.It wasn't until the gift from Hongshi Kuaima arrived at the Old Summer Palace that He Qing asked Mrs. Liu to personally send Mrs. Zhang back to Wufu.

The Fucha family once came to convey that if it was important, as long as the old man was in good health, he would stay in Beijing for a long time.He Qing doesn't need to worry too much, as long as he thinks about it, he can move around from time to time.

He Qing stayed quietly in the garden again, but Yongzheng, who had always let her go, asked her how she was doing.

Liu Shi took advantage of the situation and said, "Concubine Nian's health has gotten worse these past few months, and she seems to have something to do with General Nian. Seeing that she was about to recover, she got up to blow the wind, and even poured out the medicine she sent. .”

It fell secretly, but it also spread the news.He Qing was a little subtle, "How long has it been?"

"It's been half a month." Mrs. Liu smiled.

He Qing nodded as expected, "What does this have to do with me?"

"I'm afraid Concubine Nian can't stand it these few days. She was expecting Ai Ai to be subdued earlier, and she blamed herself." Liu paused, and said lightly, "The emperor saw that she acted softly and kindly, so he sent an imperial doctor to watch over her day and night. , often go to visit."

He Qing hummed, and then Liu said softly, "Concubine Nian suddenly begged the emperor yesterday, saying that she was deeply in love with her all her life, but King Xiang had no intention. She wanted the emperor's permission to see the master again."

"see me?"

San'er was thoughtful, "Could it be that you are unwilling?"

He Qing agreed very much, "It is certain that you will be unwilling." So what if King Xiang is unintentional?The emperor's heart is anyone's wishful thinking, even if you have it, it may not be a good thing.

After all, Nian Shi was so energetic, he didn't know that He Qing had already passed that age, even if he had feelings in his heart, but as far as Yongzheng was concerned, there were vicissitudes of life.He Qing just smiled, and Liu Shi took advantage of the situation to heave a sigh of relief, "Later, the Emperor and Concubine Nian had a private conversation, and the servant only heard that the Emperor vetoed it outright."

He Qing's brows twitched, and she sighed for no reason, Nian's breath was about to expire.
