Story of Yanxi Palace: Red Seal Spring Star

Yingluo held Fu Heng's hand tightly, and the two left the Old Summer Palace and walked towards the Spring Palace.Fu Heng asked: What are you thinking?Yingluo laughed and said: It seems that Shen Bi likes the emperor very much!Young master, what did the emperor tell you?Fu Hengdao: He was just sad about his sister's departure, the second elder brother and the seventh elder brother. He said that the imperial decree was not buried in the imperial tomb with his sister because he wanted to keep it as a memory and he would take it with him in the future.He also mentioned that his sister used to serve him in the Hall of Mental Cultivation... We didn't mention that.

Yingluo nodded, and said: That matter is not the emperor's fault, let's not bring it up again.Fu Hengdao: Unfortunately, my sister doesn't know anymore, and there is An'er, because of An'er, that matter will never end.He said with a long sigh.Yingluo knew that he was blaming himself, and said, "Master, what happened in the past has already happened, and there is nothing we can do."Let's just do what's right now.Fu Heng hummed.Yingluo asked again: Why didn't you ask me what I said to the emperor?

Fu Heng didn't speak.Yingluo smiled and said, "Why do you look like Concubine Rong, let me tell you."After I went in, I saw the emperor's eyes were closed tightly, and he was burning hot. I was shocked. I immediately sat on the stool beside the bed and said to him: Fourth Lord, I am Yingluo, and I am here to see you.I know that you blamed yourself because of your sister. Hai Lancha told me later that it was not your fault. Yingluo and Fu Heng have forgiven you a long time ago. I told you before.We all told my sister, if she could talk, she would forgive you too.

He still didn't respond.So I said again: Fourth master, do you know why Yingluo wrote to you?Because Yingluo wishes you well and wishes you happiness.Yingluo knows that you have many, many things that you cannot control, but Yingluo and Fu Heng can help you and make you as happy as possible. What I do is what my sister has been doing all the time, to make you happy.Back then in Changchun Palace, after my sister gave birth to Seventh Elder Brother, she said to me, "There will be as much suffering as there is resentment in the heart, and as much blessing as there will be kindness in the heart."Fu Heng and I already have Long'er, how could my sister still blame you?If you want to think about the second elder brother and the seventh elder brother, just love our Longer more.

Speaking of which, I saw him cry.Li Yu was very happy and shouted: Your Majesty, Your Majesty!I continued: Fu Heng and I both think that Concubine Rong is a good person. If she is with you, you will be happy.She is like a sister, but not the same.I often think, the word you gave her, "Rong", concubine Rong, isn't it just because you are thinking of your sister?Having said that, the emperor opened his eyes.

Then she stopped talking and looked at Fu Heng.Seeing Fu Heng burst into tears, just like the emperor, he smiled.Fu Heng held her hand tightly and said: Yingluo, thank you!It's so kind of you!

When the two looked up, they had already reached the gate of the bamboo garden.After entering the room, Fu Heng said: Yingluo, you are different from before. At this time last year, you were still full of complaints against the emperor.Yingluo was also very emotional, and said: Maybe because of Long Er, I became his mother-in-law. I think the best thing in this world is someone who understands your suffering and your thoughts.It's like Long'er, he can't speak, but if we understand what he means, he will be so happy.Fu Heng looked at her in surprise.

Yingluo smiled and said: The person who understands Long'er best is you, young master, so he clings to you the most.The person who understands the emperor best is you, young master, so you can forgive him, forgive him better than my sister and me, and forgive him earlier.This time I saw him because of his sister, and I think I completely forgive him.He is actually like Long'er, Long'er can't speak, he doesn't want to talk, and he is not used to expressing his thoughts, because of his status as a king, he can't speak casually.It's not surprising that he would like someone like Concubine Rong, because Concubine Rong is like a young master, but also like a sister.I often feel that if the elder sister and the young master are combined into one person, they should be like her.The emperor likes you and his sister, so of course he likes Concubine Rong.I think what he really likes is Concubine Rong, but he thinks he likes me because he will never get me.

Fu Heng nodded and said: He likes you because you don't like him.Yingluo took out a handwritten booklet from the cabinet, turned to a page, and gave it to Fu Heng.Fu Heng looked and saw that it read:

Akiko

May the heart of a child be able to pave a smooth road

May the goodness of the original heart shine through the eyebrows

May the kiss of relaxation be to those who are at ease

May the body follow your soul

May there be a door to confide in the sad spring and autumn

May the city where I live have a pillow for sleeping peacefully

May there be no trace of grievances, may kindness wait for you

May those who attack the heart be relaxed and stupid

no longer ask

Fu Heng nodded and said: This is a good poem.Yingluo smiled and said: This is the booklet of Tibetan poetry that Concubine Rong gave me, and she copied it by hand.Fu Heng looked at her in surprise again.Yingluo leaned close to his ear and whispered: I bought it with spiritual herbal oil... I gave her a bottle of oil, and she gave me this booklet.This booklet is like spiritual herbs.Before, I thought that Concubine Rong would not like the emperor, but today, I think she really likes the emperor.She is the emperor's person, that door.

Fu Hengdao: Can she really forget the person in her heart?Yingluo said: Maybe not, but the emperor can't forget my sister and forget me, he still likes Concubine Rong.Fu Heng nodded.Yingluo said: I really don't know who is that person in her heart?The person she likes must be a very good and refined person, not even Huo Jizhan, who could it be?Fu Heng shook his head and said: I don't know either.

Yingluo said again: Because of that incident, the emperor told Hailancha that my sister is a good wife, but she can't be the king's wife.I think Concubine Rong is a good wife and can be a king's wife.Fu Heng hummed, and said: My sister is not strong enough, if she was like you, she wouldn't be... Yingluo immediately hugged Fu Heng tightly after hearing this, and said: "Master, I'm suddenly very scared."

Fu Heng asked in surprise: What are you afraid of?Yingluo said: Do you really think I am strong?I often think, if I really can't be with you, what's the point of my life.I still think so.Fu Heng also stretched out his hand, hugged her, and said, "Yingluo, I don't allow you to think that way. We have agreed that we will not mention the old things, and you are not allowed to think wildly."And now we still have Long Er, can you give up on him?

Yingluo closed her eyes and said: You clearly know that no one can match you in my heart, and neither can he.Fu Heng smiled and said: Yingluo, if you say that to Long'er, he needs to know how sad his mother is when she thinks so.Yingluo sighed, and said: Having children is troublesome.Fu Heng laughed again, and said: I don't think so.

Yingluo was silent for a while, then said: Young Master, sometimes I think that we should have many children, and sometimes I think that it would be better if we don't have one.Fu Hengdao: You just like to think, think too much.All things, just let nature take its course.As he spoke, he took off the two hairpins from her head, placed them on the booklet on the table, and untied her hair.

At si o'clock the next day, when Concubine Rong woke up, the emperor was still sleeping. Concubine Rong went in and touched him, and found that his forehead was cool and the fever was gone, and he was very relieved.She finally had breakfast, and then took Caiyun to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion.When the queen mother came out, she saw her kneeling there, so she went to sit down.Concubine Rong said: "Emperor Niang, Shen Bi came to plead guilty. The Emperor suffered a serious illness, and Empress Empress was worried day and night. It was Shen Bi's fault."

The queen mother sighed, looked at her, with a lot of reproach in her eyes, and said slowly: "My child, it doesn't matter if you and the emperor are at odds. The queen mother is also a person who has experienced it. It is hard for the couple not to blush, but the housework is so troublesome. , Empress Dowager really wants to say a few words.The emperor, in addition to housework, he also has to take care of the affairs of the world. No matter how noisy the housework is, it can't affect the big things ahead, do you understand?With the emperor's illness, many things had to be put on hold, and he couldn't participate in the ceremonies originally scheduled for the first month.

Concubine Rong said: Yes, it's all Shen Bi's fault, Shen Bi will never make this mistake again.The Empress Dowager looked at her and said, "My child, the Empress Dowager knows that you are not to blame for this matter, but since the Emperor is in a bad mood, you should accompany him and comfort him, instead of letting your temper be ignored. The Emperor is not only you Husband, he is still the lord of the world, this is not what the emperor's concubine should do.The responsibility of the concubine is to serve the emperor well, to serve the emperor wholeheartedly, to guarantee the emperor's affairs, and to act according to the emperor's will.The Empress Dowager paused for a moment, then said: Don't blame the Queen Mother for speaking seriously, how the Emperor treats you on weekdays, you have to think about it if you treat him like this.Don't blame Li Yu, I asked him, he had to tell me, this is not just the emperor's family business.

Concubine Rong's face was flushed red, she was speechless for a moment, Caiyun who was standing by the side thought: This is too difficult for the empress dowager, the emperor is sad and the empress is the empress, and she wants to comfort him.A mother-in-law is a mother-in-law. She usually treats her master like a daughter, but in her heart, she is far inferior to her own son.

Just as she was thinking about it, she heard the Queen's voice saying: "Emperor Niang is right, but Concubine Rong didn't sleep the whole night before, and she did her best for the Emperor. This concubine asks Empress Empress not to be too harsh.I saw Empress Nala and Concubine Shu walking in together.Concubine Shu pouted at Concubine Rong who was kneeling on the ground, but said nothing.The two then bowed to the Queen Mother.The Empress Dowager said: "The Empress came just in time. You can tell Shen Bi about the family law of your ancestors. This is the responsibility of your master of the sixth house, and I am tired too."advanced.As he spoke, he helped Nanny Liu in.

Nala smiled and said: "The queen mother is gone, sister, please get up."Concubine Rong stood up, bowed to her and Concubine Shu, saying that they came to the garden, she was ill and then the emperor was seriously ill, and she hadn't had time to formally greet the queen, please forgive her.Before Nala could speak, Concubine Shu said: "Sister Concubine Rong, luckily the emperor is fine, yesterday the palace and empress saw the emperor's situation, they were quite frightened!"Isn't it, Empress Dowager?Nala didn't answer, said: "Sister Concubine Rong, it's a trivial matter to greet the palace, what the queen mother said is all right, you have to keep in mind, serve the emperor well, there is nothing more to say in the palace.The queen mother is worried about the emperor and the parents of the world, so don't blame her.

Concubine Rong hurriedly said: Yes, Shen Bi dare not.Nala said again: My sister doesn't have a deep understanding of this, so I am afraid that you will think too much.Concubine Shu couldn't help but sneered.Caiyun knew that these two people deliberately used words to run on Concubine Rong, looking at her master, she felt very sad.Both Zhen'er and Chunmei laughed secretly in their hearts.Concubine Rong lowered her head again, and said slowly: "Thank you for the teachings of Empress Huang'er and Empress, Shen Bi will never forget."

Seeing that she was listless and didn't even put on makeup, Nala was very happy, and just wanted to say a few more words.Li Yu came in in a hurry and said to everyone: Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor is awake and wants Concubine Rong to serve him.Concubine Rong, please!After the three left, Concubine Shu said angrily: Your majesty is really partial!Even the queen mother is angry, and he still spoils her!Seeing her expression, Nala knew that she was complaining that the emperor did not summon her, so she couldn't help but secretly smiled, and said: "Concubine Shu, if you say that about the emperor, if the old queen mother hears it, it will be another matter, and you will do it too." Be careful, I won't tolerate it next time.As he spoke, he stood up and helped Zhen'er out.

After a while, concluding that her master and servant had gone far away, Concubine Shu said bitterly: Don't you think so in your heart?What to pretend!Then she stood up angrily, and Chunmei rushed up to support her.

Nanny Liu heard everything from the inner door, and walked back to the Empress Dowager in the Buddhist hall. The Empress Dowager was chanting sutras with her eyes closed facing the Bodhisattva in the shrine. When she saw her coming in, she opened her eyes and said with a smile: How is it?Nanny Liu said everything she heard just now, and finally said: You still think higher!By belittling Concubine Rong, Naling concubine can be promoted.

The queen mother smiled and said: Shen Bi is a smart child, and she is by my side again, she will understand, and I know that the emperor will definitely call Li Yu quickly.Nanny Liu said: You mean, she didn't have any trouble with the emperor?The queen mother smiled, shook her head, and said: The emperor is because of Rong Yin, what does it have to do with Shen Bi.Fu Heng and Wei Yingluo were found by Li Yu yesterday, and the emperor recovered immediately. I don't understand.

Mother Liu said: "Then what you said about the empress do you mean for the empress?"The queen mother smiled and did not answer.Liu Nanny said again: This concubine Shu is also too, she can't control her mouth, she is still so outspoken with you.The Queen Mother said with a smile: Let her talk, it will make people feel unhappy.

Liu Nanny said again: It seems that the emperor's whole heart is on Concubine Rong.The Empress Dowager said: "That's good, I can rest assured. I talked about Shen Bi today, and the Empress embarrassed her again. The Emperor will definitely comfort her, and the two of them will be even better."He said with a smile, closed his eyes and recited scriptures again.Mammy Liu also pursed her lips and smiled.

On the way back to Le'anhe, Li Yu was apologizing to Concubine Rong, saying that the queen mother asked him about this matter, and he dared not hide it from the report, and everyone else in Le'anhe knew it too, so they couldn't hide it. Is it my fault, I shouldn't have gone to see Concubine Rong on the first night of the first day of junior high school, but I never said anything to the empress, and the empress did not allow him to tell others.

Seeing that Concubine Rong didn't speak, Caiyun was angry in her heart, and said, "Director Li, you should be devoted to the emperor wholeheartedly, that's what we should do, our master dare not blame you."Li Yu hurriedly said: "Miss, this is serious, Li Yu can't afford it, how will Concubine Rong punish the slave, the slave will never complain."Caiyun said: "Our master doesn't dare to punish Director Li."

Li Yu was very nervous when he heard the words, thinking that this time it seems that Concubine Rong really offended Concubine Rong, not to mention that Concubine Rong and himself get along well on weekdays, the emperor really likes this master very much, and he himself loves this master ...Although the weather was cold, sweat broke out on my forehead, and I was extremely disturbed, and I couldn't speak for a while.Concubine Rong remained silent all the time, as if her mind was out of control.

Back in Le'anhe, Concubine Rong entered the emperor's bedroom.The emperor was wearing a middle coat and sitting on the bed with a quilt covering his legs. Concubine Rong walked to the edge of the bed and sat down. The emperor immediately held her hand and asked: Didn't the queen say anything?Have you been kneeling for a long time, does your knee hurt?Concubine Rong shook her head, but couldn't help shedding tears.The emperor straightened up, hugged her in his arms, patted her and said: "Shen Bi, it's because I got you down."

The grievances and sorrows in Concubine Rong's heart in the past few days were surging like sluice water, her tears rolled down like broken beads, soaking the emperor's clothes, and the whole room was filled with the sound of her suppressed crying.Li Yu was shocked outside, and even more anxious.The emperor felt great pain in his heart, and secretly regretted it. He didn't know what to say, and kept stroking her back.
