The Concubine of the Red Chamber is a little flower essence

The queen was overjoyed and rewarded Imperial Physician An fifty gold.

The empress summoned the little flower essence, and said: "The decree is passed to the palace of the Sixth Bureau, and Ma Cairen is pregnant. It is no different from before. The clothes, shoes, socks, food and living quarters must be rearranged. There must be no hidden dangers. Be sure to be safe and ensure that Ma Cairen is safe. Birth."

The queen rewarded Ma Shangxiang again, and then went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to announce the good news.

Shangshi Bureau Tan Siyao lives in the West Corridor of Kunning Palace.

In order to ask for the queen's pulse, the Department of Pharmacy also set up a pharmacy in the West Langfang.

Fu Shanggong of the Shanggong Bureau and the secretary of the Shangshi Bureau live on the east corridor.

Xiao Huajing only needs to go to the East Corridor to proclaim the decree.

Fu Shanggong will convene six rounds of his own accord.

Xiaohuajing first went to Xinuan Hall to congratulate Ma Shangxiang.

Ma Shangxiang hugged the little flower essence and acted coquettishly: "Yuan'er, you are really my noble person. Thanks to listening to you, I have a trip to Xiyuan."

Xiao Huajing was also infected by Ma Shangxiang's joy: "Should the empress reward this humble minister?"

Ma Shangxiang said: "Yuan'er is mischievous, what kind of rewards should be presented. Yuan'er should be punished for saying the wrong thing."

Xiao Huajing raised her hand to admit defeat: "I am wrong, I am willing to accept the punishment, but I can't do it at this moment, the Empress has gone to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to announce the good news to His Majesty, and the reward will be there soon.

Talented people quickly dress up and prepare to receive the order.The humble minister is also going to pass the decree to Fu Shanggong. "

Ma Shangxiang knew the rules, and said with a charming smile, "Okay, let Yuan one size up for now."

Fu Shanggong brought Shang Gong of the Sixth Bureau to Xinuan Palace to congratulate and ask Ma Shangxiang for his opinion.

Ma Shangxiang is very humble: "This is the queen's palace, I think it is very good, there is no need to replace it."

Fu Shanggong was very satisfied with Ma Cairen's attitude.

However, according to the queen's will, the Xinuan Hall was rearranged.

The supply and configuration have been upgraded to Jieyu's specifications.

Not only that, the empress also personally hung a lucky bag for Ma Shangxiang to bless Ma Shangxiang's smooth delivery.

His Majesty's reward was also delivered by Dai Quan himself.

Silks and satins, jewellery, various tonics, and flowing water were sent to the West Side Hall of Kunning Palace.

A new life suddenly appeared in the harem that had not given birth for five years. How dare Dai Quan treat Ma Shangxiang carelessly.

The handprint of the supervisor of ceremonies, the red man in front of His Majesty pays respects: "My servant congratulates your mother. Your Majesty is summoning the Minister of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households to discuss matters. I will come to visit my mother later, so let this servant come here first to report."

How could Ma Shangxiang dare to offend Dai Quan, the celebrity in front of the emperor, and while ordering someone to help him, he rewarded Dai Quan with a pair of ink jelly jelly.

Afterwards, Emperor Jiahe visited Ma Shangxiang in Xi Nuan Hall.

This time, Xiao Huajing accompanied her.

Emperor Jiahe laughed like a flower.

Brown-yellow chrysanthemums.

Emperor Jiahe was very satisfied with the queen's promotion of Ma Shangxiang's treatment.

"It's very much in line with my wishes to promote Ma Shangxiang to the third-rank Jieyu."

The queen personally wrote the decree on the spot, using the phoenix seal.

He also ordered Xiao Huajing to go to the government office to announce the decree.

The empress hinted: "There is nothing in the palace today, the emperor sent two more guards by Ma Cairen's side.

Thanks to the Ma family, they have their own supervisors to arrange.

After Si Yan's summons, you can go for a stroll by yourself, and you can just return to the palace before the key is placed at the palace gate. "

This is a hint that the little flower essence can meet with relatives outside.

Xiao Huajing took the opportunity to ask for an order: "On New Year's Day, I won the first prize from Your Majesty and the Empress. I am a woman and cannot take the imperial examination. I have a younger brother in my family who is five years old.

The grandfather has already told me during the Spring Festival that the younger brother will start reading in February.

Therefore, Weichen begged the Queen's empress for permission to pass on the number one scholar's prize bestowed by the empress to the younger brother of Weichen.In order to encourage him to study hard, to glorify the lintel and serve the court. "

The queen laughed and said, "Si Yansi is really too careful.

It doesn't matter whether it is from this Palace, Your Majesty, or other highnesses' rewards, since you are rewarded, just like your grandfather was rewarded by Your Majesty, it belongs to your private property. When you leave the palace in the future, you can take it out of the palace.

If Si Yan wants to present it to his younger brother in advance, he does not need to get the permission of the Palace, he only needs to hand it over to the guards for inspection before taking it out of the palace. "

Xiao Huajing was busy thanking her: "I would like to thank my mother for your kindness, and I must abide by the palace rules and act according to the rules.

Not only will the guards check it, but after leaving the palace, the servant of the chief of ceremonies will also personally present gifts to the minister.Never pass it on privately. "

The verbal conversation between the queen and Xiaohuajing was recorded by the secretary himself as evidence.

Xiao Huajing left Kunning Palace, and went to congratulate Ma Cairen again, telling her that she was going to deliver the decree to the government office, and asked Ma Shangxiang if she needed the gift from last time, and she could take it with her.

Ma Shangxiang was very excited, and quickly went to the empress's main hall to ask for an order, and gave gifts to her mother, sister-in-law, niece and daughter.

Ma Shangxiang's gift is a reward, not a gift.

The queen asked Ma Shangxiang to raise her baby with peace of mind, so she naturally agreed.

Si Yansi took Shi Xiangjun with him to check and accept the gift himself.

Ma Shangxiang has written the gift list, and the gifts of the family have detailed notes, so there will be no mistakes.

Xiao Huajing bid farewell to the palace.

The empress exhorted: "The rules in the palace, Si Yan must be kept in mind."

Secrets in the palace cannot be publicized.

Xiao Huajing brought Shi Xiangjun, four female Shi Yansi, two more guards from the bodyguard office, and four internal servant supervisors.

Xiaohuajing can buy off the female history, but she can't buy off the servant.

Xiao Huajing is not going to meet her family, lest she will be involved in the future.

Grandfather is an old man, and gifts can spread peace.

After Xiao Huajing went to the government office to announce the decree, she ordered all the guards to change into regular clothes: "Everyone has worked hard with this official, and all the rewards under my name are given out to treat guests, and you can order what you want to eat."

The servants are just teenagers, and they are all children from poor families.

Although they are on errands, their salaries and rewards must be dedicated to their godfathers (masters).

The guards and servants all eat in the big kitchen.

The food in the big kitchen in the palace is really unsatisfactory. The rice is cold and the dishes are stews.

The little servant is even more unlucky.Occasionally, there is a tooth festival, and it is the leftovers from the master, which is full of seals, and the master can't eat it, so he gives them to them.

Which child is not greedy, but he knows that he can't receive favors in vain: "The little ones don't get rewarded for nothing, so how can we make Master Si Yan spend money?"

Xiao Huajing said: "Received salary must be meritorious. Later, I happen to have something to trouble you little eunuchs."

The little servant is happy now.

A group of people went to Food Street for dinner, and then went to Liuli Street for a stroll.

Xiao Huajing bought all the presents, and then invited the guards to talk to the servants: "When I left the palace, I have already reported to the empress, the empress must..."

At this moment, Xiao Huajing saw her grandfather wandering around with Baoyu.

Xiao Huajing hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects: "Grandfather, what a coincidence?"

Jia Daishan smiled: "Is the errand finished?"

Xiao Huajing introduced her colleagues.

Several people stepped forward to salute.

Jia Daishan was once a favorite minister.

There are still legends about him in the palace.

Knowing that I had eaten, I reserved a private room for tea.

Having eaten, I will never refuse tea.

Jia Daishan asked Xiaohuajing with concern: how is the food, how is the body.

Finally, he asked Baoyu: "Recite a passage of poetry for eldest sister?"

With his little hands behind his back, Baoyu recited a passage of picking weeds: picking weeds and picking weeds, and wei also stops...

Then, I recited Xiaoya Luming again: Yoyo Luming, the apple of the wild food...

Xiao Huajing gave Baoyu a thumbs up and praised: "Baoyu, you are so smart, come and sit here, don't you recognize my sister?"

Baoyu was very impressed with her sister, and she was a little strange at first.

At this time, seeing his sister was very gentle to him, especially this kind of laughter and words made him feel like a spring breeze.

When I was beaten in the past, my sister didn't feel pain anymore.

He soon lost the sense of strangeness, lying on his sister's shoulder and acting like a baby: "Sister, you said you would go home soon, why didn't you come home for so long?

When will my sister come home?

The lotus cake made by my mother is delicious. Every time I leave a plate for my elder sister, but it’s a pity that it’s all broken, and my sister hasn’t come back yet.

My mother did it again yesterday, but unfortunately I didn't know that I would meet my eldest sister today, so I didn't bring it with me. "

When Xiao Huajing heard this, her heart suddenly softened.

Baoyu looks like a man and a woman, with pink face and peach cheeks, red lips and white teeth, but a pair of peach blossom eyes under the sword eyebrows, very handsome.

He inherited his grandfather's eyebrows and eyes, but he didn't have the slightest heroism.

Xiao Huajing pinched his cheek: "With so much flesh, is it because you're lazy and haven't practiced well?"

Baoyu twitched, pinching and pinching each other with her two small hands: "I can't hold a knife or a gun. My grandfather said to stand and meditate first."

Jia Daishan proved for his grandson: "Baoyu has just started practicing martial arts, and when we meet again next time, I think he will be able to master a set of boxing skills."

Xiao Huajing then took out the gifts she had prepared and handed them to Baoyu: "This is a reward for my sister, this is a gift from the empress, this is a gift from your majesty, there is the number one scholar, and Yu Ruyi.

After Baoyu returned home, he shared with his elder brother Cong'er, elder sister Yingchun, and younger sister Tanchun. "

Baoyu agreed.

Jia Daishan said, "Have you ever asked for an order?"

Xiao Huajing nodded, then took out the jade pendant from the fourth prince and said: "The jade pendant is also a gift from a nobleman, so give it to Bao Yu, so that your Bao Yu will be worthy of the name."

The dragon aura on the fourth prince's body has gradually become stronger.

This piece of jade pendant should be the same as the ancient painting with inscriptions and postscripts given to Jia Daishan by Emperor Jiahe, and it can play the role of protection.

When these things left the palace, they had already been handed over to the guards for inspection.

However, at such a time, Xiao Huajing still invited the guards and servants to check the purse and jade pendant again.

Then, he hung the jade pendant around Baoyu's neck with his own hands.

This is the best jade pendant, and it is engraved with bamboo to signify safety.

It can suppress the shock but nourish the body.

Moreover, grandfather has seen the fourth prince many times, so he should be able to recognize him.

Grandpa is so smart, he should understand the mystery.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand.

I'll talk about it later.

After parting, Baoyu pestered Xiaohuajing: "Sister, can Baoyu follow you?"

Xiao Huajing comforted: "No, my sister is going to work, just like my father going to the yamen, do you dare to follow your father to the yamen?"

Baoyu flattened her mouth aggrieved.

Jia Daishan picked up Baoyu and hugged him: "Baoyu is not afraid, if your father scolds your grandfather, you will scold him."

Then Baoyu laughed, and waved after Xiao Huajing: "Big sister, you go home early, I will wait for big sister to come home and eat cakes."

Jia Daishan also told Xiao Huajing to do her job well and share the worries of Her Majesty and Queen.

Xiao Huajing returned to the palace and immediately reported her encounter with her grandfather.

The empress is very satisfied with Xiao Huajing's magnanimity.

Their grandparents often visit Liuli Street, His Majesty knows it and is not afraid.

The relationship between Emperor Jiahe and the empress has been greatly improved now.

The emperor and empress are in harmony, and Xiaohuajing's job is relaxed.

Once upon a time, when His Majesty went to Kunning Palace, he sat down for a while and then left.

Although there is no love now, it is like an old friend.

Sip tea together, and discuss harem matters calmly together.

Emperor Jiahe would generally support matters in the harem as long as they did not involve government affairs.

The words of Concubine Zhen's assistant in the harem will not be mentioned anymore.

Not to mention the role of Ma Shangxiang, it wouldn't be so miraculous.

Emperor Jiahe is 65 years old this year, and no baby has been born in the palace in the past five years.

Ma Shangxiang was favored for half a year and became pregnant.

It was rumored before that the empress was jealous and poisoned and sterilized the food of the concubines, which became a big joke.

Men in their 60s have poor fertility.

In addition, there are many concubines in the harem, although there are not 72 concubines of three generations, old, middle-aged and young.

Counting the daughter-in-law Baolin, there are as many as 38.

This is not counting the maids who were selected to enter the palace and strive for the top.

Your Majesty needs to care for every concubine, 30 days a month is not enough.

Jiahe Emperor has a lot of opportunities every day.

Tossing in front of the harem, and in the event of a famine, it is even more worrying about labor.

Emperor Jiahe then directed and acted to frame the queen.

Now, even though she was slapped in the face by the Queen and Xiaohuajing, she doesn't feel annoyed.
