The Yinfeng cat rushed into the imperial garden in a hurry, and the palace people had long been familiar with the whereabouts of the imperial cat, and no one noticed the panic and fear on his face.He looked around in a daze, and finally curled up into a small group in the bushes where he met Kangxi for the first time. He closed his eyes and his thoughts flew back to the previous life. Khan Ama, who scolded, reprimanded, and even vigilantly mingled together, the expressions of those words were twisted into a ball, like a devil with sharp teeth, rushing towards him——
"Little Bao, what are you doing here?"
Suddenly, a voice broke through the black mist, Yinfeng cat raised its head in a daze, and saw the familiar yet unfamiliar orange cat Dabao sticking his head in, staring at him with a pair of big eyes that were still clear.
"...It's nothing." Yinfeng Mao suddenly felt guilty.Since he entered the palace, he had been hanging out with the orange cat Dabao and the Persian cat Baixue at the beginning, but soon his mind turned to Khan Ama and Huang Erniang. Except for making them spies, he only got in touch with the cats. Our relationship is not as good as it used to be.
Now that I think about it, I am really a standard egoist.
Perhaps, from this point, I am exactly the same as Khan Ama.
The more he thought about it, the more pessimistic Yinfeng Mao became. He buried his little head in his paw sullenly, and turned his back, unwilling to look at Dabao the orange cat.The orange cat Dabao tilted his head and looked at it for a while, then he walked in and picked up the back of the Yinfeng cat's neck and dragged him out!
Hey Hey hey!
The Yinfeng cat struggled endlessly, but the orange cat Dabao was twice his size when he was a child, and now... he is still twice his size, no!It might be three times as big, but he firmly moved his four legs out, dragging the Yinfeng cat out with all his strength.
"Let go of me—let me go meow!" Yinfeng cat yelled, but when he was dragged out of the bushes and looked at the piles of fluffy kittens around him, he froze all over the place.
Delicate screams sounded around Yinfeng cat, seeing these little milk cats, Yinfeng cat immediately shut up.
The little milk cats were all round, with pinkish-tender noses and pinkish-tender paws. They wobbled as they walked, and pounced on him curiously.Some fell to the ground and gnawed their little paws on all fours, some used their tails as cat teasers and stretched out their paws to slap them continuously, and some slapped the Yinfeng cat and the orange cat Dabao all the time. yell.
"...Where do these little milk cats come from?" Yinfeng cat stood up tiptoely, for fear of accidentally stepping on one or two of them.I suddenly remembered that when I went back to play by the river for the first time, did those male cats think the same way?
"?" The orange cat Dabao tilted his head and glanced at him: "These are my cubs. The cat mother has gone out for a walk and let me take care of it."
"...Your cub?" Yinfeng Mao looked bewildered.
"Of course." The orange cat Dabao was triumphant, his tail was raised high: "Otherwise, where do you think there are so many new recruits every year?"
...?Wanting to understand what Dabao the orange cat said, Yinfeng Mao's cat face was about to twitch non-stop.
He rolled his eyes at the boss, didn't bother to pay attention to the unruly orange cat Dabao, and chose a shady place to lie down again. The orange cat Dabao stuck to his side and asked curiously: "Why are you in a bad mood?"
"...Brother Dabao, do you think I'm particularly powerful?"
Looking up at the orange cat Dabao, the Yinfeng cat said sullenly: "I won't act with you except to ask you to inquire about the news, just leave me alone as a cat wandering around..."
"...people have many personalities, and we cats have many personalities too, whether you like being with a cat or being with people like you, or you like being with cats like me, or you hate humans It’s a normal thing.” The orange cat Dabao said as it should: “Anyway, as long as you are happy and happy.”
"But I..." Yinfengmao thought of the feelings Kangxi gave him, and felt that his heart was about to be torn in two.
Seeing the helpless look of the Yinfeng cat, the orange cat Dabao stretched out his paw and patted his head: "What do you want to do so much? Isn't it good to let nature take its course? Like when we come out of the villa, we will know that we will arrive Are you coming to the capital? Will you know that you are living in the palace when you are in the courtyard in the capital? I never regret it."
Yinfeng cat fell silent, looking at the back of the orange cat Dabao leaving with a group of little milk cats, feeling unspeakably melancholy.
Even Dabao, the orange cat, can see through better than himself.
Anyway, I'm just a cat, what's the use of thinking about more things from the previous life?It's better to think about how to let the Queen's mother and how to let Chenghu live well in this life!
He turned around slowly and left the bushes, and poked out a small head from a corner of the imperial garden. Immediately, someone shouted to the side: "The imperial cat is here!"
A pair of chubby little hands hugged the Yinfeng cat, and the Yinfeng cat raised its head to meet Shang Chenghu's worried eyes: "Yumao, where did you go? I told you just now and you ignored me."
"Meow..." Yinrong Mao tilted his head innocently.
"You will pretend to be cute!" Cheng Hu pinched his cheeks, and hurried to Kunning Palace: "Khan Ama even said that he wants to have dinner together, and you are still running around, and you will run around again next time." I'm going to spank your ass!"
"Meow!!"
"It's useless for you to meow!"
The sudden disappearance of Tong Jiaxiu's daughter did not cause any disturbance in the harem, and the turmoil of the show girls in Chuxiu Palace lasted only one night. Still shimmering in spirit, calm and calm, quiet and gentle.
The candidates to keep the badges had been decided long ago, and the Empress Dowager ordered the eunuchs to call out the list of beautiful women who would keep the badges one by one after she said a few words in a casual manner.
When everyone's names were finished, the show girls present showed a completely different state: the show girls who piled up the signs were gloomy, and they boarded the carriage silently with smiles on their faces, while the show girls who left the signs were sad. She was in high spirits, the joy in her eyes could not be concealed, she happily boarded the carriage, and went home looking forward to the imperial decree to grant marriage or enter the palace as a concubine.
Only for Tong Jia's family, the steward who came to pick them up was sweating profusely.
Seeing that all the beautiful women had left, and only their own carriage was left outside the Shenwu Gate, the steward inevitably had a sense of ominous premonition, bowed his waist and leaned in front of the eunuch who had not yet left, and asked cautiously: "This father-in-law, our family Why hasn't Ge Ge come out...?"
The eunuch glanced at him, and said coolly, "Tong Jia's?"
"That's right, that's right, our master is the Minister of Internal Affairs, Tong Guowei, Lord Tong!" The steward hurriedly reported his family's name, but when he heard what he said, the eunuch lost all good looks, turned his head and walked into the palace with a sneer. door, I have no intention of talking nonsense with the steward.
No matter how stupid the steward is, he will know that something has happened to Big Gege!
With a pale face, he rushed to the side of his carriage and shouted in a low voice: "Quick! Quick! Go back to the house!"
"... Steward, what is this?" The groom looked blank.
"Let's go!!!" the steward yelled.
The carriage frantically drove away from the Forbidden City, and ran all the way outside Tong Jia's mansion. Tong Guowei and Fujin Hesheli were just inside the gate. The husband and wife stretched their necks long and waited for the eldest daughter's return with anticipation in their eyes.
There was no one on the carriage that came in, and the steward's face was pale, Tong Guowei's heart skipped a beat.His face was dark and his voice was raised: "Where is Gege?"
"Master! Something serious happened!" The steward wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and stammered, "This old slave didn't receive Da Gege!"
For a while, there was silence in Tong Jia's front yard.
The beauty of Fujin Hesheli's face changed, and this beautiful girl had to go back to her respective mansion and then enter the palace according to the emperor's marriage or imperial decree... Of course, if it is Gege* with the lowest status, she will be left in the palace directly.
But... She licked her lips, how could her daughter be a mere mediocre girl?
She and Tong Guowei exchanged a look, and the uneasiness in her heart rose to the extreme.
Just as Tong Guowei wanted to send someone to inquire about the news, another voice came from outside: "The imperial decree has arrived——!"
Tong Guowei was slightly taken aback, and hurriedly asked the servants in the courtyard to open the gate, and invited Mr. Xuanzhi to enter. He brought many family members to kneel down to receive the order. He was feeling uneasy, and he was completely dumbfounded when he heard Mr. Xuanzhi's words!
"...The goddaughter has no way, she is removed from the position of minister, and is specially ordered to be a first-class guard."
what--! ?
Tong Guowei couldn't believe it, he raised his head dumbfounded, staring at the imperial decree in front of him, his heart was cold.In the ninth year of Kangxi, he was promoted to Minister of the Interior, and he was even more eager to be promoted to Minister of the Interior with the help of his daughter's entry into the palace.
But now, he has returned to the beginning, and his efforts of more than ten years have been reduced to nothing!His face was pale, his teeth were biting his lips tightly, and a bloody smell rushed up.
"Master Tong, accept the order!" Eunuch Xuanzhi said expressionlessly.
"...Slave, accept the decree!" Tong Guowei spoke with difficulty, and at the same time he suddenly remembered another thing. Today, when the beautiful girls are out of the palace, and many clan courtiers are paying attention to the movements of the beautiful girls, the emperor is declaring the decree. I don't know...
He shuddered at the thought of this possibility.
Tong Guogang's mansion is only next door, and he came here as soon as he heard the news. After carefully listening to the ins and outs, he glanced coldly at Tong Guowei and his sister-in-law: "...you, what did you do?"
Where did Tong Guowei and his wife dare to speak, Na Na did not dare to speak out.
"Go--! Go to the study!" Tong Guogang, who was livid, shouted angrily. He didn't know Tong Guowei's temper!He is upright and strong, but Tong Guowei is well-versed in all aspects, sophisticated and tactful, with more and more bad ideas in his heart.
I'm afraid it's just being smart and doing something bad!
Thinking of this, Tong Guogang became more and more annoyed, so he grabbed Tong Guowei himself and walked to the study!
Unlike the sad Tong Jia mansion, on the other side of the Hesheli mansion, the eunuch Xuanzhi brought some good news: First, Gabula, the father of Empress Hesheli, was canonized as the first-class Chengen The public, the official position was also promoted from the Minister of the Interior to the Minister of the Interior of the Guard, and he was given an imperial order, which was hereditary.
Secondly, Suo'etu inherited the first-class duke, which also means that there were actually two first-class dukes in Hesheli's mansion. In addition, Suo'etu is now a senior scholar of the Palace of Baohe, and Hesheli's power is in the Almost reached the peak at the moment!
Gabula and Suo'etu learned about the news received from Tong Jia's mansion from the courteous Xuanzhi eunuch with a smile on their face. They didn't understand that the emperor had started to act!
"Brother, let's see how Tong Guowei will show off in front of us in the future!" Suo Etu was very excited, and said happily after sending off the Xuanzhi eunuch.
"Third brother, we have to be careful now. Tong Jia's family is the emperor's family. I'm afraid the emperor won't be too hurt. You should be more careful in court, and don't personally suppress them." Bula was in a good mood, and asked Suo'etu seriously.
"Yes, big brother, you still don't know your younger brother's temperament? Just rest assured!" Suo'etu responded with a smile.
Tong Jiashi and Heshelishi received it on the same day, but the completely different decrees inevitably made people think of the previous things, especially the cleaning in the palace made people feel ambiguous about Tong Jiashi. For a while, Tong Jiashi The number of guests in the two mansions was missing, and the gates were very cold.
The only thing that made Tong Guogang relieved was that there were not many daughters in Tong Jia's family, and no married women were affected, but He Jing's younger sister was the most affected, Ergege!
She is the most innocent in this matter. Seeing the pitiful appearance of the young girl who is ignorant and unaware of her future destiny, Fujin Hesheli almost went blind from crying!It's just that her own life is not easy. People in the Hesheli family have a lot of opinions on her, and relatives who used to walk around frequently seem to have forgotten her existence overnight.
And Tong Guowei, who was frightened by Kangxi's tricks, didn't want to see her, and blamed Fujin for all the crimes. He couldn't help but feel annoyed for a while, and even the concubine in the backyard dared to jump on her head twice. Down.Under such humiliation and grievance, Fujin Hesheli died of depression within three months!
When the news of the death spread to the palace, Empress Hesheli put the teacup on the table and sneered: "This Tong Guowei is a coward. He thought he could escape this catastrophe by driving himself Fujin to death? Pooh!"
"That's right!" Mother Xu echoed: "Master, although this Fujin deserved what he deserved, it's really unbelievable that he died in these three months. Do you think we should investigate carefully?"
The Yinfeng cat agreed with Madam Xu's opinion very much, and meowed and meowed in agreement.
"...That's all. I'm afraid the empress dowager and the emperor will investigate this matter. If our people are also involved, it will be bad." Queen Hesheli thought for a while, covered her mouth and snickered: "However, After all, Fujin's surname is Hesheli, so spread the word and let her family make a fuss!"
"Yes." Madam Xu replied with a smile.
"I'm afraid you can't hurt your muscles if you make a fuss... This Tong Guowei." Queen Hesheli tapped her finger on the table for a while, and a smile suddenly appeared between her eyebrows and eyes: "I remember that he is quite greedy. lustful?"
"Indeed, there is such a rumor." Madam Xu replied: "In the early years in the mansion, he, Fujin, would often go home and cry, saying that Master Tong raised a concubine outside, but there was no evidence, it was just passed on. It disappeared after a while."
Queen Hesheli smiled, and made Huilan come closer, and whispered something next to her ear, Yinfeng cat pricked up its ears curiously, and the word "shock" filled its round eyes.
... Erniang, you are so awesome!
But after thinking about the news in Tong Jia's mansion in the previous life, Yinfengmao didn't feel anything wrong at all.
Hmm... In a sense, Queen Mother really has a lot of research on this matter!
"As for Tong Guogang..." Empress Hesheli understood that it would be impossible for Kangxi to kill all of Tong Jia's family. .
Now this is the only thing Queen Hesheli can compromise on: "As for Tong Guogang, since he didn't do anything, forget it."
Whether it was Kangxi, the Empress Dowager, or Empress Hesheli after repeated investigations, Tong Guogang did not play tricks on it. Since Tong Guowei and his Fujin were the culprits, now that Fujin is dead, the remaining Tong Guowei .
"...Go and accompany her earlier." Queen Hesheli said in a low voice.
Yinfeng's cat's eyes rolled, and the urge to take out the unlucky pill and give it to Tong Guowei immediately arose in his heart.
Last time, one was sent directly to Tong Jia and Jing Guixi, I don't know this time...
After casually thinking for a while, Queen Hesheli waved her hands again to return her attention to the matter in front of her, and murmured: "Let's start preparing for leaving the palace now!"
After procrastinating for a long time, Kangxi also officially gave time a few days ago, and he will leave the palace in two days!
Yinfengmao opened the favorability panel and before she could act, she was embraced by Queen Hesheli: "Royalmao, we are going to Zhuangzi this time, are you happy?"
"Meow!" Yinfeng cat happily responded, and finally went out, this time he had to bring the orange cat Dabao and the Persian cat Baixue.
Empress Hesheli rubbed the cat's head, and was in a good mood to figure out what to bring. Originally, only Kangxi, herself, Chenghu and Baocheng went together, but seeing Chengqing's sticky appearance, Empress Hesheli didn't In order to find a way, he planned to bring Cheng Qing along with him.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and ordered: "Hua Ying, you go to Yanxi Palace yourself and tell Concubine Nala Shu to ask her to pack Chengqing's clothes and send them to Kunning Palace in two days."
"What is Yanxi Palace preparing clothes for?"
Kangxi pushed the door and entered, and casually ordered: "That kid Chengqing won't follow, this time I will take you, Chenghu and Yumao out together."
"My concubine pays respects to the emperor." Empress Hesheli stood up and smiled and called blessings, but secretly muttered in her heart that she should train the palace servants of Kunning Palace well.Kangxi entered directly without saying a word several times, God knows if he will hide outside and eavesdrop in the future!
Kangxi didn't notice Empress Hesheli's dissatisfaction, so he took Empress Hesheli's hand and muttered: "That child Chengqing is too fussy and squeamish, let's wait until he is older when he comes out of the palace. .”
"The emperor forgot?" Empress Hesheli twitched the corners of her mouth, looked at Kangxi's bewildered face and sighed: "Chengqing was also there when you were talking that day, if you don't take him out, I'm afraid this little ancestor will It's going to make trouble again!"
"...I am afraid that he will go out, and the two little ones will join forces to make a fuss!" Kangxi's face suddenly flashed a trace of regret when he thought of the misfortune coming out of his mouth, but he muttered unforgivingly.
"Your Majesty!" Queen Hesheli gave him an angry look.
"Okay, okay...then let him go together!"
Kangxi said in a muffled voice like a child angry, then turned around and hugged the Yinfeng cat enthusiastically and rubbed it together: "We Yumao can also go home to visit relatives, right? Yumao is so smart, I don't know why? What kind of place can the water and soil grow out of?"
"Meow..." The Yinfeng cat stretched out its paws and pushed Kangxi's face to the side. Boring, it walked to Queen Hesheli's side to nest.
"...Empress, do you feel that?"
"Huh?" Queen Hesheli put her arms around the Yinfeng cat, and one person and one cat tilted their heads to look at him at the same time.
"...No. It's probably my illusion." Kangxi thought for a while and shook his head.
It feels like this royal cat is not taking himself seriously anymore.
If you say this, you will be laughed at by the queen, right?
However, what was unexpected was that just the day before departure, Cheng Qing, who was overexcited and hadn't slept well for several days, contracted a cold, his small face was burning hot, and he also had coughing and other symptoms... The matter of leaving the palace naturally was in vain.
Even if he wanted to cry again, Kangxi, who was determined and didn't want to take him out, categorically refused his request to leave the palace and ordered Nala to take care of him.Cheng Qing was so angry that he closed his eyes and began to rest after Kangxi and Chenghu promised to bring back a bunch of new gadgets.
As for Kangxi and Chenghu, they were still pitying Chengqing. Turning around, the Empress Dowager looked at the group of people happily picking up their packages and setting off.
"The father and son..."
The Empress Dowager shook her head and was speechless, then turned her head and told Nalashi: "Take good care of the third elder brother."
"Yes." Nalashi squatted in response, and then hurried back to the Yanxi Palace after watching the Empress Dowager leave. A cold towel was changed for him.
"Er Niang..." Cheng Qing was fast asleep with his eyes closed, still muttering.
Nalashi's heart softened, she gently stroked his side face and was about to speak comfortingly, but before she could say anything, she heard Cheng Qing shouting: "Mother Huang'er, I want to eat milk cake—"
She immediately withdrew her smile, only felt a sharp pain in her heart, and froze beside the bed for a while.
After a while, her eye circles were slightly red, and she gently pulled the corner of the quilt for Cheng Qing, pretending that she had never heard the child's nonsense.
"My lord! My lord!" The nanny hurried in, wiped the cold sweat from her brow and whispered, "My lord, brother five woke up, crying and looking for you!"
Concubine Nala Shu's eyelashes trembled slightly, she stood up and told the palace people in the room to take care of her, and then left in a hurry, worried that her illness would be infected by Bao Qing, so she took a bath and changed her clothes before she hugged the milk dumpling Bao Qing teased it.
Baoqing whimpered and cried, as long as he left Nalashi's embrace for a while, he would stop crying, and other nurses would be useless to coax him. Fortunately, Nala Shufei only needs to coax him.
But now I have to worry about Chengqing who is sick in the house, and I am afraid that I will infect Baoqing with the sickness. Concubine Nalashu can't wait for one person to become two people to get over here. For several days in a row, her eyes are like rabbits. Bright red.
Kangxi and his party, who didn't know what happened in the palace, finally arrived at this villa, which Yinfeng cat was familiar with but unfamiliar, in the carriage. At the foot of the mountain, it was Lijiazhuang, the hometown of him, Dabao the orange cat, and Baixue the Persian cat.
The author has something to say: *: In the early Kangxi Dynasty, when the ranks of concubines were not set, the lowest rank was promised to always be in the position, which was called 'Ge Ge'.
"Little Bao, what are you doing here?"
Suddenly, a voice broke through the black mist, Yinfeng cat raised its head in a daze, and saw the familiar yet unfamiliar orange cat Dabao sticking his head in, staring at him with a pair of big eyes that were still clear.
"...It's nothing." Yinfeng Mao suddenly felt guilty.Since he entered the palace, he had been hanging out with the orange cat Dabao and the Persian cat Baixue at the beginning, but soon his mind turned to Khan Ama and Huang Erniang.

Yinfeng cat fell silent, looking at the back of the orange cat Dabao leaving with a group of little milk cats, feeling unspeakably melancholy.
Even Dabao, the orange cat, can see through better than himself.

Thinking of this, Tong Guogang became more and more annoyed, so he grabbed Tong Guowei himself and walked to the study!
Unlike the sad Tong Jia mansion, on the other side of the Hesheli mansion, the eunuch Xuanzhi brought some good news: First, Gabula, the father of Empress Hesheli, was canonized as the first-class Chengen The public, the official position was also promoted from the Minister of the Interior to the Minister of the Interior of the Guard, and he was given an imperial order, which was hereditary.
Secondly, Suo'etu inherited the first-class duke, which also means that there were actually two first-class dukes in Hesheli's mansion. In addition, Suo'etu is now a senior scholar of the Palace of Baohe, and Hesheli's power is in the Almost reached the peak at the moment!
Gabula and Suo'etu learned about the news received from Tong Jia's mansion from the courteous Xuanzhi eunuch with a smile on their face. They didn't understand that the emperor had started to act!
"Brother, let's see how Tong Guowei will show off in front of us in the future!" Suo Etu was very excited, and said happily after sending off the Xuanzhi eunuch.
"Third brother, we have to be careful now. Tong Jia's family is the emperor's family. I'm afraid the emperor won't be too hurt. You should be more careful in court, and don't personally suppress them." Bula was in a good mood, and asked Suo'etu seriously.
"Yes, big brother, you still don't know your younger brother's temperament? Just rest assured!" Suo'etu responded with a smile.
Tong Jiashi and Heshelishi received it on the same day, but the completely different decrees inevitably made people think of the previous things, especially the cleaning in the palace made people feel ambiguous about Tong Jiashi. For a while, Tong Jiashi The number of guests in the two mansions was missing, and the gates were very cold.
The only thing that made Tong Guogang relieved was that there were not many daughters in Tong Jia's family, and no married women were affected, but He Jing's younger sister was the most affected, Ergege!
She is the most innocent in this matter. Seeing the pitiful appearance of the young girl who is ignorant and unaware of her future destiny, Fujin Hesheli almost went blind from crying!It's just that her own life is not easy. People in the Hesheli family have a lot of opinions on her, and relatives who used to walk around frequently seem to have forgotten her existence overnight.
And Tong Guowei, who was frightened by Kangxi's tricks, didn't want to see her, and blamed Fujin for all the crimes. He couldn't help but feel annoyed for a while, and even the concubine in the backyard dared to jump on her head twice. Down.Under such humiliation and grievance, Fujin Hesheli died of depression within three months!
When the news of the death spread to the palace, Empress Hesheli put the teacup on the table and sneered: "This Tong Guowei is a coward. He thought he could escape this catastrophe by driving himself Fujin to death? Pooh!"
"That's right!" Mother Xu echoed: "Master, although this Fujin deserved what he deserved, it's really unbelievable that he died in these three months. Do you think we should investigate carefully?"
The Yinfeng cat agreed with Madam Xu's opinion very much, and meowed and meowed in agreement.
"...That's all. I'm afraid the empress dowager and the emperor will investigate this matter. If our people are also involved, it will be bad." Queen Hesheli thought for a while, covered her mouth and snickered: "However, After all, Fujin's surname is Hesheli, so spread the word and let her family make a fuss!"
"Yes." Madam Xu replied with a smile.
"I'm afraid you can't hurt your muscles if you make a fuss... This Tong Guowei." Queen Hesheli tapped her finger on the table for a while, and a smile suddenly appeared between her eyebrows and eyes: "I remember that he is quite greedy. lustful?"
"Indeed, there is such a rumor." Madam Xu replied: "In the early years in the mansion, he, Fujin, would often go home and cry, saying that Master Tong raised a concubine outside, but there was no evidence, it was just passed on. It disappeared after a while."
Queen Hesheli smiled, and made Huilan come closer, and whispered something next to her ear, Yinfeng cat pricked up its ears curiously, and the word "shock" filled its round eyes.
... Erniang, you are so awesome!
But after thinking about the news in Tong Jia's mansion in the previous life, Yinfengmao didn't feel anything wrong at all.
Hmm... In a sense, Queen Mother really has a lot of research on this matter!
"As for Tong Guogang..." Empress Hesheli understood that it would be impossible for Kangxi to kill all of Tong Jia's family. .
Now this is the only thing Queen Hesheli can compromise on: "As for Tong Guogang, since he didn't do anything, forget it."
Whether it was Kangxi, the Empress Dowager, or Empress Hesheli after repeated investigations, Tong Guogang did not play tricks on it. Since Tong Guowei and his Fujin were the culprits, now that Fujin is dead, the remaining Tong Guowei .
"...Go and accompany her earlier." Queen Hesheli said in a low voice.
Yinfeng's cat's eyes rolled, and the urge to take out the unlucky pill and give it to Tong Guowei immediately arose in his heart.
Last time, one was sent directly to Tong Jia and Jing Guixi, I don't know this time...
After casually thinking for a while, Queen Hesheli waved her hands again to return her attention to the matter in front of her, and murmured: "Let's start preparing for leaving the palace now!"
After procrastinating for a long time, Kangxi also officially gave time a few days ago, and he will leave the palace in two days!
Yinfengmao opened the favorability panel and before she could act, she was embraced by Queen Hesheli: "Royalmao, we are going to Zhuangzi this time, are you happy?"
"Meow!" Yinfeng cat happily responded, and finally went out, this time he had to bring the orange cat Dabao and the Persian cat Baixue.
Empress Hesheli rubbed the cat's head, and was in a good mood to figure out what to bring. Originally, only Kangxi, herself, Chenghu and Baocheng went together, but seeing Chengqing's sticky appearance, Empress Hesheli didn't In order to find a way, he planned to bring Cheng Qing along with him.
Thinking of this, she turned her head and ordered: "Hua Ying, you go to Yanxi Palace yourself and tell Concubine Nala Shu to ask her to pack Chengqing's clothes and send them to Kunning Palace in two days."
"What is Yanxi Palace preparing clothes for?"
Kangxi pushed the door and entered, and casually ordered: "That kid Chengqing won't follow, this time I will take you, Chenghu and Yumao out together."
"My concubine pays respects to the emperor." Empress Hesheli stood up and smiled and called blessings, but secretly muttered in her heart that she should train the palace servants of Kunning Palace well.Kangxi entered directly without saying a word several times, God knows if he will hide outside and eavesdrop in the future!
Kangxi didn't notice Empress Hesheli's dissatisfaction, so he took Empress Hesheli's hand and muttered: "That child Chengqing is too fussy and squeamish, let's wait until he is older when he comes out of the palace. .”
"The emperor forgot?" Empress Hesheli twitched the corners of her mouth, looked at Kangxi's bewildered face and sighed: "Chengqing was also there when you were talking that day, if you don't take him out, I'm afraid this little ancestor will It's going to make trouble again!"
"...I am afraid that he will go out, and the two little ones will join forces to make a fuss!" Kangxi's face suddenly flashed a trace of regret when he thought of the misfortune coming out of his mouth, but he muttered unforgivingly.
"Your Majesty!" Queen Hesheli gave him an angry look.
"Okay, okay...then let him go together!"
Kangxi said in a muffled voice like a child angry, then turned around and hugged the Yinfeng cat enthusiastically and rubbed it together: "We Yumao can also go home to visit relatives, right? Yumao is so smart, I don't know why? What kind of place can the water and soil grow out of?"
"Meow..." The Yinfeng cat stretched out its paws and pushed Kangxi's face to the side. Boring, it walked to Queen Hesheli's side to nest.
"...Empress, do you feel that?"
"Huh?" Queen Hesheli put her arms around the Yinfeng cat, and one person and one cat tilted their heads to look at him at the same time.
"...No. It's probably my illusion." Kangxi thought for a while and shook his head.
It feels like this royal cat is not taking himself seriously anymore.
If you say this, you will be laughed at by the queen, right?
However, what was unexpected was that just the day before departure, Cheng Qing, who was overexcited and hadn't slept well for several days, contracted a cold, his small face was burning hot, and he also had coughing and other symptoms... The matter of leaving the palace naturally was in vain.
Even if he wanted to cry again, Kangxi, who was determined and didn't want to take him out, categorically refused his request to leave the palace and ordered Nala to take care of him.Cheng Qing was so angry that he closed his eyes and began to rest after Kangxi and Chenghu promised to bring back a bunch of new gadgets.
As for Kangxi and Chenghu, they were still pitying Chengqing. Turning around, the Empress Dowager looked at the group of people happily picking up their packages and setting off.
"The father and son..."
The Empress Dowager shook her head and was speechless, then turned her head and told Nalashi: "Take good care of the third elder brother."
"Yes." Nalashi squatted in response, and then hurried back to the Yanxi Palace after watching the Empress Dowager leave. A cold towel was changed for him.
"Er Niang..." Cheng Qing was fast asleep with his eyes closed, still muttering.
Nalashi's heart softened, she gently stroked his side face and was about to speak comfortingly, but before she could say anything, she heard Cheng Qing shouting: "Mother Huang'er, I want to eat milk cake—"
She immediately withdrew her smile, only felt a sharp pain in her heart, and froze beside the bed for a while.
After a while, her eye circles were slightly red, and she gently pulled the corner of the quilt for Cheng Qing, pretending that she had never heard the child's nonsense.
"My lord! My lord!" The nanny hurried in, wiped the cold sweat from her brow and whispered, "My lord, brother five woke up, crying and looking for you!"
Concubine Nala Shu's eyelashes trembled slightly, she stood up and told the palace people in the room to take care of her, and then left in a hurry, worried that her illness would be infected by Bao Qing, so she took a bath and changed her clothes before she hugged the milk dumpling Bao Qing teased it.
Baoqing whimpered and cried, as long as he left Nalashi's embrace for a while, he would stop crying, and other nurses would be useless to coax him. Fortunately, Nala Shufei only needs to coax him.
But now I have to worry about Chengqing who is sick in the house, and I am afraid that I will infect Baoqing with the sickness. Concubine Nalashu can't wait for one person to become two people to get over here. For several days in a row, her eyes are like rabbits. Bright red.
Kangxi and his party, who didn't know what happened in the palace, finally arrived at this villa, which Yinfeng cat was familiar with but unfamiliar, in the carriage. At the foot of the mountain, it was Lijiazhuang, the hometown of him, Dabao the orange cat, and Baixue the Persian cat.
The author has something to say: *: In the early Kangxi Dynasty, when the ranks of concubines were not set, the lowest rank was promised to always be in the position, which was called 'Ge Ge'.
