In fact, the emperor said it had been a long time, probably only a few days, and she often came over secretly at night like this, serving the emperor to take a bath, but she didn't really make out with him.Often after taking a bath, she returns to Tiandi and her family for the spring, and the emperor continues to critique the scriptures.After bathing today, she taught Caiyun to brush her hair, and the emperor had tea. After drying her hair, she and the emperor went to the attic in the inner courtyard to cool off.

The emperor asked Li Yu to hold a scroll and handed it to Concubine Rong. Concubine Rong unfolded it and saw a portrait of herself in a western military uniform, so she smiled sweetly and said: "It's been so long, Shen Bi has forgotten it!"The emperor was beside her, looking at the painting, and said: Last year, Lang Shining finished the painting in Rehe with his followers, and after returning home, he carefully polished it for half a year before presenting it. I think it's pretty good!Concubine Rong nodded and said, "Are you going to give this picture to Chen Bi?"The emperor said: Stay in Le'anhe.Concubine Rong knew that he had to take it out to read frequently, so she smiled, rolled it up, and handed it to Li Yu.

A cool breeze was blowing from the back lake. Concubine Rong sat on the railing of the building and played the pipa continuously, her voice was very low, her eyes were looking at the emperor.The emperor was wearing a camel-yellow tufted cloud and dragon dark floral satin gown, leaning on the rattan couch, holding a wine glass in his hand, and on the table on the other side of the couch was a plate of almond wood heated kang.Seeing her long jet-black hair drooping like a waterfall, her dark purple pupils were full of his yellow figure.Li Yu stood aside with a smile, waiting to pour wine for the emperor, while Desheng was busy peeling the shells.

After a while, Concubine Rong put down the pipa and sat down on the side of the couch.The emperor handed her his half-drunk wine glass, Concubine Rong smiled and drank it down.Li Yu hurriedly took the cup and filled it up, and put it on the table.The emperor picked up the shelled almonds in another plate one by one and put them into her mouth. Concubine Rong just smiled and let him handle it.

Almonds are a kind of snacks that Huijiang people love. It is a kind of oatmeal, flat shape, also called almonds.Concubine Rong sometimes soaked it in tea and drank it, which is what the nobleman said before adding walnuts to pumpkin tribute tea.The emperor also likes this as a snack now.

Concubine Rong refused to drink any more, so the emperor drank by himself. After a few cups, the emperor got up and told Concubine Rong to lie down on the couch, and went to the round table over there. There was paper on the table, and Li Yu quickly came up to grind ink for him. .The emperor looked at Concubine Rong, pondered for a moment, and wrote:

The rhyme of Begonia, the lightness of Feiyan.

The cardamom in the skirt cage, the wine dizzy is flushed, and the shy moth smiles to spring.

I care about Iraq infinitely, let alone Wushan Chuyun.

The fragrance of the bucket tent disappears, the screen window is cold and the moon is cold, and the intention is to be gentle.

When spring arrives at Xitou, the peach trees, with fluttering leaves, seem to fall before the passing years.

Then Li Yu showed it to Concubine Rong, who pursed her lips and smiled.

After returning to the house, Concubine Rong took out a bright yellow satin bag from the blue and white porcelain jar Li Yu held, opened it, took out a long flat piece of ginseng tea paste, and told Li Yu to brew it for the emperor, and then called Caiyun to go back.The emperor said: Wait!She turned her head to look at the emperor sitting on the couch, and the emperor said: Stay with me today.She thought for a while and asked: Didn't you check other people's brands today?The emperor said: No.So she said: good.Hearing this, Li Yu took out another piece of tea paste from the blue and white porcelain pot.When she was young, two cups of ginseng tea were served, and after the two of them drank, the emperor smiled and took her hand into the bedroom.Caiyun withdrew, and Li Yu guarded outside the inner gate as usual.

After entering the bedroom door, the emperor said something in her ear. She felt that he was quite drunk, so she just smiled and said: "Who were you talking to last time?"The emperor said: "With you."That was half a month ago, so she sighed: That was a long time ago.Now the emperor hardly makes out with others, she just asks knowingly.Before she finished speaking, the emperor had already hugged her horizontally.He pressed her tightly on the bed, and she felt that she couldn't breathe, so she pushed the emperor hard, but she didn't have much strength in her hands, but instead made the emperor laugh...

After summer, the bed is covered with hibiscus mat (dian4), which is very cool, and only the skin touches it is warm and soft.The emperor let go of her slightly, seeing her innocent and clear eyes looking at him, his heart was agitated, and kisses hit her like rain... Her hoarse panting was always like a sea tide, gently wrapping up, caressing and trembling Each of his tiny pores makes them feel full and comfortable.Every time, when she was under him, he felt that he was really the absolute master of the whole world and could do whatever he wanted, but the whole world belonged to him, and he didn't know why a woman with an innocent appearance could bring him such feel...

Concubine Rong burst into tears.He smiled and kissed the tears away.After returning from the southern tour, she was completely recovered, and he made out with her again, and she would cry every time after making out.He knew how she felt in her heart. In Yangzhou, she almost let go... As long as he thought of it, that night, when she could no longer speak and slowly closed her eyes, cold sweat would break out on her back.But the first time she cried, he still asked her why, Concubine Rong looked into his eyes with dim tears and said: You are too kind to me.He gently stroked her head and said: You are my baby!

On the Longevity Day, the emperor's birthday is on August [-]th, followed by the big wedding of the two elder brothers. Yilu started preparing for the wedding of the two elder brothers two months ago, and the preliminary ceremony was held in early July.The day of the big wedding is approaching, and Ybor feels that Yongqi's mood is getting low. Although it can't be seen from the outside, he still takes lessons in riding and shooting as usual.She comforted him and told him not to care about herself. Now he would stay in Hu Jiajia's house for a few days every month, and she thought he should get used to it.

On the Longevity Day, a banquet was held in Jiuzhou Qingyan Palace in Linhou Lake. All the emperor, concubines and nobles were present, and everyone dressed up.The emperor sits on the magnificent steps, the empress dowager sits on a platform on the left side of the emperor, the empress sits on a platform on the right side, and the rest are arranged under the steps. The concubines each have a platform, and the rest are two people. a table.

In the main hall, there is a couplet written by the emperor: "The smoke in the red seal stove looks straight; the bamboo in the green bud garden has a heart empty."The double entendre meaning of this couplet is to use the straight smoke in the furnace and the luxuriant hollow bamboo poles to describe the philosophy of "straight air" and "modest mind".In the hall, there is also the poem "Jiuzhou Qingyan Wangxishan after the rain" written by the late emperor: "The sound of rain on the leaves of reed reeds passes by, and I feel the freshness and rustle. According to the cold algae, the flying birds are startled and kiss Bi Luo. Don’t be surprised that the golden phoenix urges to change the order, and Qiu Hui prefers to be sunny and peaceful”, describing and admiring the scenery of the back lake.

At the beginning of the banquet, the emperor made a routine toast to the queen mother, thanking her for her birth and birth.When the mother and son drank together, because of this year's visit to Jiaxing, they couldn't help but feel strange, but the two never changed their smiles.Empress, Concubine Rong, and Concubine Qing looked at the mother and son with an unspeakable feeling in their hearts.Then came the queen, concubines, concubines, and nobles who presented birthday gifts to the emperor one by one in order of rank, wishing the emperor a long life without bounds, and the emperor kept smiling and praised them one by one.

After the dishes were served, a jug of wine was served on each table, and the concubine drank tea because she was pregnant.The emperor smiled on it and said: "This wine is the special Sanbai wine I brought back from Jiaxing. This wine is made of white rice, white flour, and white water, so it has this name. Come and taste it."Everyone was very pleasantly surprised and took a sip. Concubine Shu praised: It is mellow and pure, sweet and delicious!Your majesty, this is really a good thing, although it is not a famous product.The emperor's face seemed to darken, and he snorted. Concubine Shu didn't know what she said wrong, and she was quite embarrassed.

Concubine Qing, who was beside Concubine Shu, understood it, and hurriedly said: Your Majesty, I like this wine very much. The concubine's mother was originally from Jinhua, Zhejiang Province. But the Jinhua wine is elegant and the best, but the concubine has never been used to drinking it. After going to Jiaxing, the first time he drank the three white wines, he liked it very much.It is said to be wine, but in fact it is the wine fermented from glutinous rice.

The emperor cheered up and said: Well said!Come, fill up a glass for your concubine too.The eunuch behind immediately stepped forward and poured a small cup for Concubine Ling.I only heard the queen mother say: "Emperor, I don't want it any more. Your concubine has the emperor's flesh and blood, so you should be more careful."Concubine Qing hurriedly said: "Yes, what the queen mother said is right, the concubine was reckless just now, please forgive me the queen mother."The emperor gave up with a smile.

Suddenly I heard the concubine Wan who was at the same table as Ling concubine say: Your Majesty, how about letting the concubine drink on behalf of Ling concubine?It also fulfilled the wishes of the Lord Long Live.The emperor looked at her and saw that she had big eyes with upturned back corners and plump lips. He felt very strange to her, but smiled and said: "Okay, I reward you!"Concubine Wan said: Thank you, Your Majesty.Then he drank it all in one gulp.

When everyone drank and ate food, the queen whispered to the emperor: That concubine Wan is the old man of your hidden residence. , she was named Chang Zai, later Chen Guiren, and now Wan Concubine.Hearing what she said, the emperor seemed to have some impressions, so he nodded.

After drinking for three rounds, they performed songs and dances.It's not only about singing and dancing, but also about longevity.Before the birthday cakes were served, a person was suddenly crying on the table, everyone was shocked, the empress dowager and the emperor turned black, and the emperor was crying after his birthday, what a shame.The queen immediately stood up and shouted: "Yilu, Yuan Chunwang!"The two immediately walked up from the door, knelt down to pay their respects, and said: Please give orders from the empress.The queen said: "I went to see the E nobleman. I think I drank two too many cups. If I drag it down, I will lock it up first. After the banquet, I will discuss the crime in the palace!"The two immediately took orders to drag Na Egui, and Minggui, who was sitting beside him, immediately stood aside.

This Egui man was quite tall, and with the smell of alcohol, Yilu and Yuan Chunwang dragged her with great difficulty and dragged her out from behind the stage.She tried her best to break free from the two of them, then ran forward for several steps before falling to the ground, facing the steps, raised her hand, pointed at the emperor above, and said loudly: "Give me back, Ama!"Give me back, Amma!She was born quite beautiful, but at this moment, tears were running down her face, her makeup was all over, and she looked very creepy.The queen mother looked at and shook her head.The emperor was also very strange to her, his face was livid, and he said angrily: "Who are you, Ama?" !The queen hurriedly said in a low voice: She is the daughter of E Leshun, who was drafted into the palace in the third year of Qianlong's reign.

The emperor then nodded, snorted heavily, and said: "E Leshun, the fake Minister Yin, relied on the power of the E party to ask for silver from the salt merchants. I ignored the grace of the gods. I gave him a dead body. Very kind!The Egui people said angrily: "You are a king in vain. If you want to commit a crime, there is no reason to worry about it!"Because my father was a member of the E family, he was implicated and lost his life. My poor mother had no way to ask for help, so she also hanged herself!The queen mother said angrily: Queen, why are you still not moving!Let her gossip here!Nala hurriedly said: Yes, hurry up and drag it out!Yilu and Yuan Chunwang immediately came to drag her down again.

The Egui people struggled desperately, and shouted loudly: I have entered this dark place for the E family. It has been almost 20 years, and I have only been summoned a few times. Ama Erniang asked me to be patient for the E family, patience, I will endure Now, but where is the E family safe now? !I hate you! !hate you! !Just because you are the emperor? !Then he glanced at the concubines in the palace, laughed loudly and said: "Aren't you the same, how many of you have he seen with his eyes!"What a pity!Haha, how pathetic!It's better to be alive than to be dead!She was finally dragged out of the palace, but there was endless laughter.

All the concubines felt sad, and Concubine Rong quietly looked at the emperor above.The queen mother said slowly: Today is a good day for the emperor, queen, what should you do!

Hearing this, Nala hurriedly descended the steps, knelt down in the middle of the hall, and said, "Your Majesty, my concubine is guilty. As the master of the six palaces, she is not strict with her orders and has caused today's catastrophe. Please punish me!"The emperor sighed and said, "It's not your fault, get up."Nala was secretly happy, she pleaded guilty in front of everyone, she knew the emperor's temperament, she would never make things difficult for her, just when she was about to get up, she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach, and fell to the ground.In an instant, everyone complained of abdominal pain and fell down on the table one after another, including the empress dowager and the emperor sitting above, only concubine Ling and concubine Rong were fine, both of them were stunned.

For a while, there was chaos in the hall.The emperor panted, "That wine, that wine... Imperial Physician Xuan!"Concubine Rong has already walked up the steps, supporting the emperor, and Nanny Liu supports the queen mother.The concubine hurriedly called Doctor Xuan and the eunuch to take the jug to check.After a while, seven or eight people came from the imperial hospital. Two of them went up to treat the queen mother and the emperor, and one went to see the queen.After a while, an imperial physician came to the hall and said that oleander powder had been added to the wine.All the imperial physicians hurriedly gave everyone the antidote to the symptoms.It took a while for everyone to settle down, and they were all out of breath.

Suddenly, Concubine Wan shouted loudly: Concubine Ling didn't drink, but Concubine Rong did, why is it all right? !Everyone was taken aback, seeing what she said was reasonable, they discussed it one after another, Concubine Shu glared at Concubine Rong, and said: You want to kill us all?Just listen to the nobleman Qi Muge loudly said: You fell out of favor with the emperor, and you have such a vicious heart!The audience was in an uproar again.Before everyone could fully react, Concubine Wan sneered at Concubine Rong and said: You have fallen out of favor with the emperor, and you can't have children. You hate your concubine's successive pregnancies. The Queen Mother likes her, and you want her concubine's child to be aborted!The queen sneered slightly.Wei Mei was taken aback when she heard this, she couldn't believe that Concubine Rong was such a person, and she was on good terms with herself, but today's incident was indeed very strange, and she looked at Concubine Rong unconsciously.

Concubine Rong calmly said, "Who saw that this palace was poisoned?"Ben Gong doesn't know what's going on, Concubine Wan, you have nothing to prove, you're just spitting blood!Then he looked at the emperor and said: Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for Shen Bi.The emperor's face was livid and he didn't speak.Concubine Rong knelt down in front of the Empress Dowager again, and said, "Emperor Niang, don't you believe in Shen Bi?"The queen mother snorted and said: Who is your mother-in-law!Concubine Rong fell to the ground.Concubine Wan was overjoyed, and said, "You'd better do it honestly, bribe someone, and poison the wine!"The queen mother and the emperor may think that you have repented and reward you with a dead body.Concubine Rong pointed her finger at her and said: You...you...I know, you are the one who poisoned her!But you came to blame me.As he spoke, he went down the steps.

Wanpin smiled and said: Me?who I am?What did I do to harm the emperor and the queen mother? !The emperor has given you the fifth elder brother Fukang'an, are you still not satisfied? !Do you have to be the only one in this palace?Concubine Rong said: You are talking nonsense, I just want to poison the favor, so why would I poison the queen mother and the emperor? !Wanpin said: "Did you forget what the E nobleman said just now?" !She hates the emperor, but how beautiful you were in the past, once you fell out of favor, you naturally hated the emperor and the queen mother too!Concubine Rong said: You are talking nonsense!nonsense!Said, fainted on the ground.

The queen mother and the emperor didn't speak, so the queen asked Liu Taiyi to come up and show her.Physician Liu took the pulse of one of her hands, felt "huh", then took the other hand, and after a while, said: "Go back to the emperor, it seems that Concubine Rong has been poisoned by another kind of poison in her body long ago. The two poisons restrain each other, so she is fine, she just fainted because of her excitement.There was an uproar again.The concubine Wan's complexion changed, and she said: "It's not another kind of poison, it's the antidote for poisoned wine."Doctor Liu said: "From my point of view, another kind of poison in Concubine Rong's body is the softwood softshell turtle, which is by no means an antidote to poisonous wine. Even if she wants to restrain poisonous wine, she will definitely not drink such a highly poisonous thing!"

The author has something to say:

[Furong mat] Qi (qi2) is a famous special product made of bamboo flutes in Qi (qi[-]). "Its joints are flat, and people sleep cool without leaving marks." It has been famous since the Tang Dynasty. The reward given by Zhongyuanchun, as the name suggests, is woven into the pattern of lotus or hibiscus.

[Ginseng] The price of ginseng at that time was as mentioned in the article, which was ridiculously expensive. The reasons for this will be covered later in the novel.

[Emperor's Poems] If there is no historical origin, and it is not a famous poem that is well-known to the public, it is a random stew of poems that I made based on the plot of the novel.This setting includes other poems that appear in the novel.
