Zong Qiongyao's beautiful jade is flawless

Qianlong had already ordered that all news in the Kunning Palace should not be released to the outside world that day, but no one in the palace knew that the emperor went straight to the Kunning Palace that day, and later summoned the Fulun family and the concubine Ling, and then the imperial concubine of the harem. In the past, it can be said that the concubine Ling who was the favorite of the sixth palace is still pregnant; the Fulun family was detained in the Fufu mansion, guarded by the forbidden army outside the gate; Elder brothers were all grounded in Jingyang Palace.

Such a big change is hard not to attract the attention of others. Even Seya and her party in the posthouse outside the palace were affected by this atmosphere and felt a little anxious. It was just that they couldn't get any news, and they were afraid that those things in the palace would affect themselves. .So Seiya simply asked Bale to write a note to Qianlong, saying that he was grateful for the trust and love of the Qing emperor, and still handed over Tibet affairs to the Chieftain and the Minister of Tibet. Although Tibet is vast and sparsely populated, There are still matters to be dealt with, and it is not easy for them to leave for too long, so they left and went back to Tibet, but Seya fell in love with Forte, and wanted to ask the emperor to marry Seya, so she pointed Forte to Seya Ya became the son-in-law of Tibet, and then asked Forte to return to Tibet with them to hold the wedding.

Qianlong who received this booklet is happy, let's go, let's go, good morning, I can close the door and find a reason to deal with Lao Wu's troublesome bastards, so as to save Da Qing's embarrassment It is not enough to throw it away, it is also thrown to Tibet.So with a wave of Qianlong's generous hand, he wrote a big promise on the booklet, and then immediately issued an imperial edict as if he was afraid they would go back on their word: carry Fuertai, the second son of Fulun, into Manzhou with a blue flag, seal the shell, She married Seya, the princess of Tibet, and returned to Tibet with the princess to get married in a few days.At the same time, he also admired some precious jewels of Balben, which were called Forte's "dowry".

When the decree came down to Fu's family, it was not peaceful.Forte accepted the imperial decree very calmly, received the decree politely, thanked him, and gave the eunuch who delivered the decree a purse.

But the Furrens were not at peace.The Fu family was involved in the matter of true and false Gege, and was rejected by the emperor and imprisoned in the mansion. Erkang was beaten eighty times for his disgrace. The beating was bloody and bloody, and he went to Erkang to beat up that place. Now that the doctor has confirmed the diagnosis, Erkang will be inhumane. Poor Erkang, who is both civil and military, has such a problem. Don't say they let Erkang Shangzhu His wish was not fulfilled, not even leaving incense for the Fu family in the future.

So Fu Lun and Fujin began to pay attention to Forte, the second son who was always neglected on weekdays. It can be said that they pinned all the future hopes of the Fu family on Forte.They all made up their minds: Didn't Erkang come to power to make a splash in the competition between Tibet and the Qing Dynasty that day?Afterwards, the emperor ordered the fifth elder brother to take Erkang Ertai to accompany Princess Seya, and Princess Seya has always shown great curiosity and affection for Erkang.Twelve princes also said before that the candidate for the son-in-law of Tibet is about to come out, so it is difficult to deal with them. Doesn’t this mean that Princess Seiya has taken a fancy to Erkang? Go out and let Erkang be the son-in-law of Tibet and marry Princess Seya. The emperor sees that Erkang's contribution to the friendly relationship between the Qing Dynasty and Tibet can also let the Fu family go, and maybe he will raise the flag for the Fu family?As for whether Erkang's inhumane things would go wrong, anyway, the Tibetan son-in-law was going to follow Princess Seya back to Tibet, and when the matter was settled, there was no way to go back on his word, so naturally they couldn't be implicated.And Ertai can definitely revitalize the Fu family with good teaching and encouragement, and can also leave children for the Fu family.

The Fu family's plan was good, but Qianlong's sudden order caught them by surprise.Ertai?How could it be Ertai?Doesn't Princess Seya like Erkang?Shouldn't the Tibetan son-in-law be Erkang?Now that Ertai became the son-in-law of Tibet, wouldn't it be for nothing?What's the use of keeping a son who has become a father-in-law?Fu Lun muttered to himself with a pale face, the Fu family is over.

Fu Erkang was seriously injured in bed, and Fu's family kept silent about his injury. Anyway, he only felt that his entire lower body was in severe pain, and he couldn't tell where it hurt, so he didn't know his physical condition.Hearing the decree that Forte was married to Seya, on the one hand, Vulkan felt that he was so handsome and talented. At that time, Seya obviously liked him, but it was Forte who was married in the end. , he felt that he was inferior to Forte, and his feelings were deceived by Seya; but on the other hand, he was proud that he didn't have to go to the bitter cold place like Tibet, and he didn't have to marry that savage Princess Seya. The beloved Ziwei is gentle, virtuous and versatile, and how can Seya, the princess of Fanbang, compare to her.So he just acted like a good brother and comforted his younger brother, Princess Seya, since she asked the emperor for his will, she probably liked him, and he would not be sad when he went to Tibet, and he looked a little gloating.Even if Fulkan's words were thorny, Forte ignored him, he was sober, the Fu family was finished, and there was no need to do it himself. In the future, Fulkan would not end well. Anxiety and anticipation, there will be no more Vulkan on his head, he can fight for himself, but the unknown future is waiting for him.

……

As soon as Ba Leben in Tibet took his daughter away from Qianlong, he wanted to quickly deal with the matter of true and false, but unfortunately, the sky failed.The sudden news that the Empress Dowager returned to the palace forced Qianlong's plan to run aground. He had no choice but to deal with Fujia and Xiaoyanzi, but that Ziwei was of royal blood even though she was an illegitimate daughter. Elder brother Yongqi is inside, the queen mother has always loved Yongqi and valued the royal blood, it is okay if the queen mother is not in the capital, but it is really unreasonable to dispose of them beyond the queen mother when the queen mother comes back.

In fact, the Empress Dowager went to Wutai Mountain to pray for a year, and the one-year period has just arrived. Originally, it was very slow to return to Beijing according to the speed of the Empress Dowager. In addition, the Empress Dowager is too old to bear the bumps, and it takes at least two days to return to the capital from Wutai Mountain. I didn't expect the Queen Mother to pack up and go back to the capital without saying hello in advance, and came back at the speed of the road. She didn't send someone to notify until the Queen Mother arrived in the suburbs of Beijing. The palace was in a hurry .

Qianlong was a little unhappy. He couldn't say how close he was to the Empress Dowager Chongqing. After all, he was raised by his aunt's side since he was a child, and when he was a little older, he was taken by Kangxi to raise him.He also had a longing for his own mother in his heart, but he could see that maybe it was because of the inferiority of the queen mother who was not born high enough or because she was not raised by her side since she was a child. The queen mother valued rights more than pure love for his son. So he let go of the little hope in his heart, and just provided for the mother, the queen mother. Due to filial piety, he would not interfere with the queen mother's power in the harem, and when getting along with the queen mother, he was more than respectful and not intimate.Qianlong asked the queen to report the true and false Gege and the promotion of the harem to the queen mother, so he knew that he would come back soon, but the queen letter had just been sent out, even if it took eight hundred miles to rush, it would not be able to reach Mount Wutai. The queen mother was like a surprise attack this time. It seems that returning to the palace must have missed the letter, so the queen mother must have hurried back to the palace because of the fact that there are more folks in the palace.

The Empress Dowager is really in a hurry, she has only been away from the palace for a long time, and there is something strange in the palace, what happened in the palace, all the servants she left in the Compassionate Ning Palace will report to her, the imperial concubine uses this to return Zhugege is a solid favorite, and the palace was made a fuss by the Huanzhugege, I don’t know how many people have been harmed, the queen is useless, if she doesn’t come back, the harem will not be the world of the concubine Ling, so the queen mother is the one who fights. I made up my mind to return to the capital once a year arrives.When the news of Qianlong's incognito patrol and assassination reached Mount Wutai, the queen mother really couldn't sit still. The emperor is the guarantee of her wealth and rights. What about a queen dowager?Fortunately, the emperor did not have any accidents, but the queen mother really did not dare to stay in Wutai Mountain, it would be better to go to the capital as soon as possible, so the queen mother insisted on reducing the two-month journey to more than half a month.

At Xihuamen, Qianlong took his harem concubine, Princess Argo, to welcome the Empress Dowager.The gate of the palace was wide open, and the team came slowly.I saw the guards heavily protecting, the court ladies and eunuchs huddled in front of and behind them, and the empress dowager's phoenix chariot marched majesticly under the ranks.Followed by a small sedan chair.The Empress Dowager always loved luxury. Although the team looked bigger, in fact, it had been reduced a lot in order to return to the palace as soon as possible, and it was not as spectacular as it used to be.

The queen mother's big sedan chair stopped, and the small sedan chair behind it also stopped.A long time ago, Nanny Gui and the maids of honor stepped forward to help the Empress Dowager get off the sedan chair.A group of court ladies stepped forward, lifted the curtain of the small sedan chair, and helped out a girl with a pretty face.This girl is only thirteen or fourteen years old, with bright eyes and white teeth, and delicate features.She was raised in front of the queen mother since she was a child, and she is the daughter of Prince Yu. Her name is Qing'er, because she has a lot of face around the queen mother, and the palace also honorably calls her Qing Gege.

When the concubines and princesses saw the Empress Dowager getting off the sedan chair, they all knelt down and kowtowed to pay their respects, shouting in unison: "Greetings to the Lafayette! Lafayette is a thousand years old and a thousand years old." Qing'er also knelt down to pay her respects with everyone.Then Yingying stood up and went forward to support the Queen Mother.

Qianlong went up to meet him, and said respectfully, "Mother Huang, it's really unfilial for my son not to go out of the city to meet him!"

"What did the emperor say? You are busy with state affairs. I have so many people waiting for me. Do you still need you to greet me in person? What's more, Qing'er is by my side!" The queen mother said calmly. She dared to let the emperor go out of the city to greet her, but she was satisfied and happy when Qianlong said such a filial piety.

"This time, the Queen Mother went to hold a fast. It's been so long. It's really hard!" In fact, how could Qianlong not know that this was just an excuse for the Empress Dowager? It was rumored that the queen mother took Qing'er to Wutai Mountain, but at least in name the queen mother still prayed for the Qing Dynasty, and she still had to do superficial work.

"I'm going to pray for the emperor, and for our Qing Dynasty. It's not hard!" The queen mother agreed, and then patted Qing'er's hand: "Qing'er, come and greet the emperor." The queen mother decided to let Qing'er stand in front of the emperor. Show your face and have a good image, it's time to propose marriage to Qing'er, so as to save some ignorant hypocrisy and wishful thinking, and Qing'er has been raised by her side since she was a child, and the husband's family that Qing'er marries will not only raise her It can also help Niu Gulu's face.

Qing'er bowed her knees to Qianlong and saluted: "Qing'er pays respects to the emperor! Your majesty is auspicious!"

Qianlong looked at Qing'er, she was indeed a well-behaved and dignified person, and he didn't mind giving the Empress Dowager a face, so he praised: "Good Qing'er, fortunately, you are with Lafayette, which makes me feel at ease! I should thank you for being a good girl." right!"

Qing'er didn't dare to take it too seriously: "The emperor said so, Qing'er is flattered! It is Qing'er's blessing to be able to serve Lafayette!"

The Empress Dowager supported Qianlong's hand and walked in front of the Empress and all the concubines.The Queen Mother said: "Everyone, get up!"

The queen and many concubines stood up in chorus of gratitude: "Thank you, Lafayette!"

The empress dowager knew that the big news in the palace was Huanzhugege and the emperor's doting on the twelfth elder brother recently. She carefully observed that the empress was still respectful and respectful, and she was not happy because her son was favored by the emperor, so she cared about the empress with satisfaction: "Empress It seems that I have lost a lot of weight, and my body is okay!"

The queen knew that the queen mother obviously didn't want to see her!At first, it was with a bad evaluation, but later it was obviously caring, but it made her feel chills all over her body. However, she understood it in her heart, and she still looked flattered, "Thank you, Lafayette, for your concern, I am very happy." good very good!"

In order to welcome the queen mother, Qianlong also released the confinement of Lingfei and Yongqi. The queen mother looked at Lingfei and glanced at Lingfei's slightly protruding abdomen. The son is very blessed, and I am very happy in my heart: "The imperial concubine has good news, why did no one inform me?" The queen mother asked with a smile.

Concubine Ling was shy and timid, but couldn't hide her joy, she hastily bent her knees, and replied: "Go back to Lafayette, don't dare to disturb Lafayette Qingxiu."

"There is a happy event, how can it be considered a 'disturbance'?" The queen mother looked at her brothers again, and saw the youngest Yongzhen standing in the front, followed by the oldest Yongzhang, and Yongqi stood in the middle. Looks anxious.The queen mother frowned, the rumors are true, the emperor really values ​​the twelve now, even Yong Qi, who was the most beloved before, has to stand aside, and even the detested third child has returned, and Yong Qi, your expression Is it impatient to welcome Aijia?

However, Yongqi was raised by Xiaoxian's side after all, she is considered half the son of the empress of the Yuan Dynasty, and she is of pure Manchu blood, and she is the closest among the princes to the empress dowager.The queen mother does not want the [-]th elder brother to be crowned a great treasure in the future. The [-]th elder brother is the queen's son and has the support of the Ulanara clan behind him. How can he help her Niu Gulu clan? The fifth elder brother is different. Elder brother's mother family is the Coriette family, which is not prominent. She helps the fifth elder brother. If Yongqi really does something in the future, she can support the Niu Gulu family with kindness, so she is still more willing to support the fifth elder brother. Seeing that he is suppressed now, he is willing to give Yong Qi face.

"Yongqi, why are you standing so far away today? I haven't seen Aijia's strange thoughts for more than a year. Come to the front and show Aijia." The queen mother kindly Zhao Yongqi came forward, except for Yongqi who was standing at the front Hey, the faces of all the princes changed.

Yong Qi was locked up in Jingyang Palace for a long time, and when she was finally released, she was only thinking about Little Swallow, where is the Clan Mansion?In addition to managing the royal family's genealogy, honors, rewards and punishments, sacrifices, etc., it is also a place to confine criminals and educate the clan's children. In addition to Huanzhugege's identity, with Little Yanzi's unrestrained nature, it would be uncomfortable just to lock her up, what if someone tortured Little Yanzi, how could Little Yanzi bear it.As long as Yongqi thinks of any danger to her sweetheart, Yongqi's heart is twisted, but she must come to welcome Huang Mamo back to the palace, and Huang Mamo has always doted on him, maybe if she begs Huang Mamo, she will also be there for him and Xiao Swallow's love moved to help them.

"Look at what Huangmamo said, Yongqi also thinks you're thinking too hard." Yongqi accompanied her with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a while, and Yongqi sees Huangmamo is still so energetic. I really thank the Lord Buddha."

"What a sweet mouth," the queen mother smiled, put her hand on Qing'er's hand, looked meaningfully at Yongzhen who was standing respectfully beside her, and surrounded by everyone, a group of people walked into the palace gate .
