The return of the pearls to Yongzheng

Chapter 44 Waiting For You

The empress dowager's treatment was not so good. Even if she went to Mount Wutai to pray for the late emperor, the old Buddha suddenly ordered her to return to the palace several times, and the preparations were carried out in an orderly manner.

The next morning Lafayette woke up and finished his breakfast under the service of Qing'er and Nanny Gui.Then I changed my clothes, and I was ready for the work to return to Beijing.

"Report to Lafayette, the Luanjia is ready, do you want to leave immediately?" Lafayette's travel manager came to ask for instructions.

Lafayette nodded, and supported Qing'er with his left hand and Nanny Gui with his right hand: "Let's go."

He spit out two words with an unruly expression, Lafayette is going to drive back to Beijing.

"Lafayette, are you going to send someone to send a message to the palace now?" The travel manager followed behind Lafayette step by step. When Lafayette was about to board the sedan chair, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't delivered the letter to the palace. When he received the news that he was going back, he didn't sleep a wink all night, and he just kept packing things with little eunuchs and maids.It can be said that apart from Lafayette, Qing'er and Nanny Gui last night, no one closed their eyes.There is so much to pack.It can't all be blamed on Niu Hulu's enjoyment, who made Hongli a filial son, even if Niu Hulu came out to pray for blessings, Hongli brought enough things for his old mother.Niu Hulu's life in Mount Wutai was no worse than in the palace.

Lafayette was already in a bad mood. Yesterday she thought about a lot of things, and felt that the queen was not paying attention to her more and more. When things like Fifth Prince happened, she didn't even tell her beforehand. When the steward asked, Lafayette's face became even darker: "No need, go quietly, don't make a fuss, and don't alarm the officials along the way. Ai's family has to travel day and night without stopping for a moment." Now Lafayette can't wait to fly back To the Forbidden City.

The chief manager was a little bit embarrassed when he heard it, but Lafayette gave such an order, so he had no choice but to obey: "Yes, I will give you an order to go back to Beijing as soon as possible day and night, without disturbing anyone along the way."

But won't it really alarm anyone?Lafayette brought a full 800 people when he went out to Beijing to pray for blessings. How could the mighty team be hidden.The common people are not blind, and people in officialdom are not fools.

But one thing has been realized, day and night on the road.In this way, Lafayette is fine, but he feels sorry for the guards, maids and eunuchs, as well as those poor horses.

It's okay to hide Lafayette's whereabouts from others, but it can't be hidden from Yongzheng.When she touched Wutai Mountain with her front foot, someone hurriedly passed the news to Yongzheng with her back foot.

Yongzheng couldn't help curling his lips, this troublesome Wei concubine, this arrogant Niu Hulu family.

But after thinking about it for a while, Yongzheng decided to tell Wanning personally when he went to Kunning Palace at night.

"It's early today." Wanning came out to greet Yongzheng with a smile, took his arm and entered Xinuang Pavilion.

"Except for the Western Expedition Army, there is nothing else going on these days. Hong Zhou is watching over the matter of food and grass, and everything is safe. I feel more and more at ease these days, but I don't know what the situation of the Western Expedition Army is right now. The environment over there is harsh, and the soldiers suffered a lot.”

"There is no way. If there is no rebellion, the emperor will not send the army. The soldiers are for the stability of the country and for the people to live and work in peace. Worried and afraid." Wanning pushed Yongzheng to sit on the kang, and then brought him a cup of tea.

Yongzheng took the teacup and smelled it: "That's right, the skill of making tea has improved again." Wanning's life in the harem became more and more idle. Although Hongli had many concubines, they are all safe and sound now. Concubine Wei didn't really cause any trouble, and the children were all well-behaved.She really doesn't have much to do.When she has nothing to do, Wanning likes to grow flowers and plants, read books and cook tea.

"The concubine also thinks so," Wanning said without any modesty.

"She is coming back soon, and she will arrive in five or six days." Yongzheng said casually while sipping tea.

"I'll be back sooner or later." Wanning naturally knew who Yongzheng was talking about.

"She is very dissatisfied with you." Yongzheng suddenly raised the corner of his mouth, and looked at Wanning playfully.

Wanning fiddled with the peony flowers on the small nanmu table. They were fresh flower arrangements that she had made this morning. They were in good condition. Although it had been a whole day, there was no sign of decay: "Like this flower It's the same, it's impossible for everyone to like it." Wanning smiled: "It's normal for her to be dissatisfied, and now she has too many reasons to be dissatisfied with me." Wanning played with Hua'er very seriously: "She is dissatisfied with me, but I am Not angry, but I am also very dissatisfied with her." Wanning did not hide her emotions.

Yongzheng looked at Wanning with a smile in his eyes, this kind of Wanning was very cute.Although he is not young, he still thinks of the word cute.

"You have quite a temper." Yongzheng was clearly upset with Niu Hulu in his heart, but he wanted to say that.

"Hmph," Wanning turned her face to the side: "She is not without responsibility for what Hongli did. Although she is the empress dowager, she can't just ignore the affairs of the palace. Look at our newly arrived What was the imperial palace like at that time. The queen was not like a queen, and the concubine was not like a concubine. The prince and princess were not well raised, and the two girls, Xiaoqi and Xiaojiu, were sick every day. Does she care about these things? If she doesn’t care about world affairs That's all, but she didn't take care of other things too! How can I get things done right? I'm so disappointed." In the past, no matter whether it was at the bottom of the feudal clan or in the Forbidden City, Wanning thought that Niu Hulu's family was still good. , Why does it really look like this now?

The corner of Yongzheng's mouth rose: "It seems that you are more dissatisfied."

"Isn't what the concubine said right! It's a little bit false." Wanning was not angry in her heart, Yongzheng had always been kind to Niu Hulu in the past, but she was actually uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.It's just that she didn't say it. In that life, she was tightly locked up by the rules, and everything, all personal emotions were hidden in her heart.But it's different now.She is Wanning and also Minqing, Minqing is her name in her previous life.

"Don't call yourself a concubine in the future, that's fine just now." Yongzheng's focus was obviously not on whether what Wanning said was right or not.

Wanning nodded: "From then on, I won't use the word "concubine." In fact, she doesn't like to call herself a concubine, and she doesn't even want to always call him the emperor.

"Have you eaten your dinner?" Yongzheng was in a very good mood now, and suddenly remembered that he came in and was busy talking, and forgot about his dinner.

"I'm waiting for you. It just so happens that I'm not very hungry." Wanning rubbed her stomach. She doesn't know what's going on recently, and she feels weird.

"Then set the meal." Yongzheng pulled Wanning up: "You don't have to wait for me all the time, if I don't come, you won't eat?"

Wanning was very helpful and was dragged by Yongzheng: "Anyway, I will wait for you if you don't come, so you have to remember to come and have a meal." In this way, he should not be too busy to forget to eat, Wanning secretly laughed, Eating together every day, just like her former parents, makes me happy just thinking about it.

Yongzheng sat down and looked at Wanning helplessly: "I will try to come here as much as possible in the future." Let the mother of a country wait for him for dinner every day, at least he has to save face.
