Story of Yanxi Palace: Red Seal Spring Star

Concubine Rong laughed and held the emperor's head on her chest, but did not speak.The emperor said: What are you laughing at?Concubine Rong said: You are like this. When you miss someone in your heart, you say something else.The emperor hugged her tightly and didn't speak.

Concubine Rong said again: "The former empress's most important thing is Lord Fu Heng. Now that Lord Fu Heng is so happy, although Shen Bi doesn't know what misunderstanding there is between you and the former empress, you can relax. Shen Bi has long since I said it, remember?The emperor said "no".Concubine Rong said softly:

I asked the Buddha: Why are there so many regrets in the world?

Buddha said: This is a whirling world, whirling is regret,

No regrets, no matter how much happiness is given to you, you will not experience happiness.

The emperor said: This is not the Qur'an you are talking about, is it?Concubine Rong said: This is a poem by the Dalai Lama Tsangyang Gyatso. I taught the Chinese master to find someone to translate it into Chinese.The emperor was very surprised. The former Dalai Lama was abolished when he was the patriarch. He was only 24 years old when he passed away. He did not expect that he wrote such a philosophical poem, and Concubine Rong knew it.The two hugged quietly for a long time, and the emperor felt passionate and began to kiss her.Li Yu let out a long breath in his heart when he was outside.

Fu Heng went back to the house, but Yingluo was not there. Cui'er was waiting there, and said: My lord, the master is waiting for you in the study.When Fu Heng entered the courtyard of the study, he heard the sound of playing the piano.He walked in, and Yingluo was sitting in the courtyard, laying out tables, lighting incense, and playing the piano. Seeing him coming in, Pearl walked out of the courtyard and stood there.

Fu Heng listened to her playing "Pingsha Luoyan", reciting and reciting, dull and ups and downs, concise and interesting.This song is originally based on the high air in autumn, the calm wind and flat sand, the clouds travel thousands of miles, and the sky is flying.When it falls, the sand will be flat and the water will be far away, the mind will be comfortable and the mind will be relaxed, friends will have no guesses, and the male and female will have a story.

At this time, the night sky was cloudless and the moon was shining brightly. The entire Yujing Garden seemed to be enveloped in Yingluo's melodious and low-pitched zither sounds, creating a scene that was as long as thousands of miles away.He thought of the letter Yingluo wrote to himself, and his heart felt hot. He went to the study to get wine and his long sword. He drank three cups, threw the cup away, and began to dance the sword. The feeling of love, the state of fighting up and down, the image of flying and then gathering, the god of surprise and resurrection.

After dancing for a while, at the end of the song, Yingluo suddenly changed the tune and played "Guangling San" instead. The rhythm of the tune picked up, so Fu Heng pulled a sword flower and speeded up according to the tune.

"Guangling San" describes the story that Nie Zheng, the son of a swordsmith in the Warring States Period, stabbed Han Xiangxialei to death in order to repay Yan Zhongzi's kindness, and then committed suicide.The whole piece is infused with a sense of indignation and unyielding grandeur, and it is the only piece of music handed down from ancient times that has the atmosphere of fighting with spears and spears.Ji Kang, a great master in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, was famous for his good playing of this piece. Before his execution, he played it calmly with his qin.

In the colorful and brilliant sound of the zither, Fu Heng seems to see the north wind sweeping the ground, snow flying across the land, gold and iron horses, and the years are turbulent.Suddenly, the Tianshan Gobi, the desert grassland, thousands of miles of ice, and thousands of miles of northern borders, where the horses once rode, unfolded before the eyes one by one, and the words of Cen Shen of the Tang Dynasty came to mind:

Spread into the bead curtain and wet the curtain, the fox fur is not warm and the brocade is thin.

The generals couldn't control their horns and bows.

The vast sea ran out of ice, and the sad clouds were bleak.

The Chinese army bought wine and drinks for the guests, Huqin, Pipa and Qiangdi.

Mu Xue went down to the gate one after another, and the red flag remained frozen in the wind.

The east gate of Luntai sent you to go to Tianshan Road with snow.

You can't see you when you turn around in the mountains, and you stay where you are in the snow.

When the long song "Guangling San" was finished and the sound of the piano came suddenly, Fu Heng stopped in the closing position, already dripping with sweat.

The couple felt extremely happy in their hearts, and they looked at each other and smiled.Fu Heng approached Yingluo, and said softly: "You played really well!"are you tired.Ying Luo looked at his star-like eyes and the beads of sweat hanging from his eyelashes, her heart was filled with an indescribable strength, and the sorrow of the night was washed away.Yingluo took off the other veil on his clothes, wiped his sweat, and said softly: Your Majesty, he loves his sister, you are wrong.Fu Heng smiled and said: "My sister is very important in his heart. He often mentions my sister in front of me."Yingluo nodded and said, "So you hold a lot of weight in his heart.Fu Heng smiled again, and said, "The two of us."

After bathing, when you lie on the mat, you will feel cool and comfortable physically and mentally.Yingluo said: "Master, Concubine Rong has learned the pipa, and I want to learn what Master Lu taught her."Fu Hengdao: Don't think about it now, after the baby is born, you will have a lot of time.You play the piano very well. You can play such a difficult piece of "Guangling San" so well!Why do you want to learn the pipa?

Yingluo remembered that her enlightenment of playing the piano came from the emperor, and said with a smile: There is a piece of pipa music in the Yuan Dynasty called "Haiqing Holding the Swan". This piece is about the brave Haidongqing confronting the swan in the sky. Shoot down the swan.The young master is Hai Dongqing who soars into the sky, and he also likes to raise eagles. I definitely want to learn this song.Fu Heng shook his head and said: You just read too much, it hurts your eyes, you really need to rest more.Yingluo said angrily: "Master, I'm not sick, why are you all so nervous, you can't do this or you can't do it when you come back."

Fu Heng hurriedly hugged her, and coaxed her: Yingluo, I am worried about you. The child made you very uncomfortable. You worked so hard for me and the Fucha family. Erniang, sisters-in-law, and the others are also very concerned. Tell me to take good care of you. you.Yingluo was angry and ignored him.Fu Heng said softly again: Even if it's for the sake of my sister, she must want to see my child born safely, and she won't be able to bear it for long.The four words "my child" that Fu Heng said hit Yingluo's heart heavily, and she felt that unbearable love again, she hugged him tightly and said, "Master, you and sister are all because of I'm really sorry.OK, I'll listen to you, okay?

Feeling relieved, Fu Heng secretly prayed that the child would be born at full term and that Yingluo would suffer less... He said: Don't talk nonsense, I just want you to be well.There is a very faint fragrance in the room, this is the smell of requiem incense, it is the smell of Tianshan snow lotus, like a gentle hand, gently holding a beautiful midsummer night.

The incense used exclusively by the palace and princely mansions is originally Tibetan incense.Tibetan incense "has a strong smell, full of sandalwood and jade. Every New Year's Eve, Zhumen's mansions are burned all night, and the eaves and corners of the house are fragrant to the nose. They are also the rich and noble among the real fragrances."But now the Longxi Hall of Huazi Hall in the Hall of Mental Cultivation and the dormitory of Fu Heng and his wife in Yujing Garden are all using the more precious Huixiang Requiem.

This night, Wu Deya and Hong Zhou talked about the emperor's visit to the Old Summer Palace under the lamp, and when they talked about giving Fu Heng the Spring Garden, Wu Deya was full of resentment and said: "How eccentric the emperor is!"Not to his own brother, but to an outsider.Hong Zhou drank his tea and said, "It's not a day or two since he was biased, he just missed the queen who died before."Wu Deya saw that he seemed to be understating it, and said in surprise: "My lord is not angry?

Hong Zhou knew that she didn't know who Fu Heng's wife was, and didn't know the grievances between the emperor and Fu Heng. According to the rules, Fu Heng said that it is convenient to live nearby, but in fact, the emperor guarded him and was not allowed to be free, so he taught him to work hard, what do we want that false name for?Brother Huang taught us to live in the house of the Wanquanzhuang Internal Affairs Office. I didn’t want to go, because I didn’t want to be supervised, and I didn’t want to live outside Xizhimen, so we moved to our former Maojiawan house. It's still close to Prince Zhuang's mansion, and you can hang out with Yongzheng when you have time, just like you do here, take pictures of temple fairs, what a joy!

There are two major temple fairs in the capital, one at Longfu Temple, held on the ninth or tenth day of every ten days, and the other at Huguo Temple, held on the seventh or eighth day of every ten days.Longfu Temple is located in Dongcheng District, close to Prince He’s Mansion, and is called the East Temple, while Huguo Temple is in Xicheng District, near Qianmaojiawan, and is called West Temple.Both temple fairs are extremely lively, and they are important events for people living in the imperial city.That's why Hong Zhou said this.

Wu Deya knew that he was reluctant to stay in the palace with the Nala family. Their house in Qianmaojiawan was close to Xizhimen, and not too far from Shenwumen, the north gate of the Forbidden City. Zhuang, it’s not like the Royal Garden near the Old Summer Palace. On the middle road to the Old Summer Palace, it’s even more desolate and wilderness, and it’s hard to find a signboard, so I nodded: The emperor can follow the prince!Left or right is your own run.Look, who are you taking?

Hong Zhou smiled and said: I will take you and Hai'an.Wu Deya smiled, since Hongzhou came back from Hubei, he seldom went to Zhang and Cui's place, and rested more in Hai'an. After all, Hai'an is a newcomer, but he is still good to himself.Hai'an was the same as before, she was respectful and obedient to herself, she was finally relieved, but the matter of drug administration did not stop.

Chengqian Palace was also discussing the Spring Harmony Garden. Yuan Chunwang was unhappy, but he didn't show it on his face. He said to Empress Nala, "The emperor said that foreign officials are not allowed to communicate with the harem, but he asked you to get close to the prince's family. Concubine Rong is close to Fu Heng's family, what is Long Live Lord thinking?

Nala said: "Fu Heng was appointed as the chief minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to let him take charge of the Armed Forces Academy. It was like this before. He couldn't finish the work of the military aircraft department, and he was often absent from the court. The Ministry of Internal Affairs would only call him when there was a major event." Participation is actually to make it easier for his mansion to send money and things to the palace, and to benefit the Fucha family. Naturally, the matter of the Hall of Mental Cultivation will not be entrusted to you and me. Fu Heng is worse than others. what a strange.Concubine Rong is only on hold temporarily.The emperor is not for her, but for the emperor himself.Fu Heng also led the guards and ministers, the same thing, that is, when the emperor wants to use him, he can directly mobilize the guards and the pro-army. Usually he doesn't care about things, and the other five people take care of specific things.If Fu Cha's family really associates with Concubine Rong, there must be trouble.

Zhen'er sighed, and said: "The emperor's thoughts are really complicated, but why does he want you to get so close to the Prince's Mansion?"Nala said: "Maybe this is what the Queen Mother meant. The Queen Mother only accepted Hong Zhou's daughter. We and the Prince's Mansion actually started to get closer after the Queen Mother came back from the Old Summer Palace."Yuan Chunwang and Zhen'er looked at each other and suddenly realized.

Yuan Chunwang said: "We all know how the Prince and the Prince feel for the Empress, but why did the Empress Dowager do this?"Nala said: In order to frame the palace, to separate the palace and the emperor.Yuan Chunwang and Zhen'er looked at each other again.Zhen'er was surprised: What do you mean?The Empress Dowager wants the Emperor to know that the Prince and the Prince are treating you... Nala said: It's a pity, not to mention that I am pregnant with the Emperor's flesh and blood. The last time Yuan Chunwang reported to the guards of the mosque, the Emperor knew in his heart that I was in good shape. What else can she do?

Yuan Chunwang smiled and said: Your Majesty is right, we don't need to worry about the Empress Dowager, she killed the Qian family, if the emperor finds out, her life will be in danger immediately, the empress is devoted to the emperor, she can't make any trouble.The empress should worry most about Concubine Rong and Fu Heng's family.Fu Heng's family is restrained by the prince, the emperor will worry about it, Concubine Rong, let's talk about it after the elder brother is born, our Chengqian Palace is quiet now.Nalashi smiled and said nothing, she only thought about the child in her stomach, and she also thought it was Elder Brother, every time she thought of it, she felt very happy.When this child is born, Concubine Rong will have no place to stand...

When Li heard about the fact that the emperor was going to spend the summer in the Old Summer Palace, she told Wei Mei, and congratulated her on being able to see the emperor again immediately, and this time for a long time.Wei Mei asked some details, nodded and said: "The emperor brought the queen mother and concubines, I'm afraid I can't see him often."Li Shi said: "The emperor's favorite now is Concubine Rong. I heard from the master that she has moved into the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but the Empress and Concubine Shu didn't come. The other concubines are nothing important."It is also good for you to take this opportunity to get close to the Queen Mother.

Wei Mei asked: What kind of person is the Queen Mother?Li Shi said: "The old lady likes to worship the Buddha. She is very kind, but she has her own grace and majesty.The emperor treats his mother with utmost filial piety, if the empress dowager likes you, your position in the emperor's heart will be different.Li's family is not ranked among the second-rank wives, so she is not eligible to participate in the palace ceremonies, but because she is Yilu's wife, she often goes in and out of the garden to assist with affairs, so when she lived in Yuanmingyuan, the Queen Mother met many times.Wei Mei nodded without saying a word.

After returning to Wufutang, Wei Mei continued to live as usual.She didn't feel any discomfort, and the homework of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting taught by the master has not been missed.Sometimes I think that even if the emperor is here, I can't go to see him without being summoned. I don't know what kind of beauty this concubine Rong is.Then he smiled, no matter what, he was not even considered a beautiful woman, so what else did he want to do.Li Shi usually doesn't say it directly, she only says that she is pregnant with Elder Brother, but she listens to her meaning, her child is probably a girl.

Wei Mei lost her mother when she was young, and Li Shi gave birth to two sons and two daughters, so she thought Li Shi must be right.I didn't think about anything, the girl is good, she can be a caring companion to me in the future, and she is the child of myself and the emperor.Thinking of being able to bear children for the emperor, I was very happy in my heart.Half a year ago, she was still under the Wu family's dependents. Although Wu Min's family was kind and amiable to her, her life was very different from now, and she couldn't see any way out.Compared with that time now, she is considered rich and well-fed, and she doesn't value these things, but now she lives comfortably, has no worries about food and clothing, and learns all kinds of new things. The life is very comfortable, and she has a husband and children. She just thinks that I am very grateful, and put incense in front of the Buddha every day.

On this day, she taught her personal maid Xijun to organize the chess records for her.When Xijun was assigned, her original name was Taoxiang. She thought the name Taoxiang was a bit vulgar and frivolous, so she changed her name later. Taoxiang was thin and thin, and she thought the name Xijun was suitable.When he returned to Yilu, Yilu agreed, and he didn't care about these trivial matters at all.Hearing that the emperor was coming soon, she allocated some maids to her, but she declined, saying that the original ones were enough, but Yilu said that he was afraid that the emperor would feel that he had neglected her.She hurriedly said: Master Yilu, please don't say that, Wei Mei has no such thoughts, you and your wife have always treated me very well, I have no father, no mother, no relatives, and I regard you two as relatives.

Seeing what she said, Yilu said, "Your Majesty Wei, you don't dare to do that. It's a servant's job to serve nobles and the emperor's heirs. You must not say such things in front of the emperor."Wei Mei said: Lord Yilu, I understand, don't worry.Yi Lu said again: One more word, slave, you must be careful when speaking in front of the emperor, think about it before you speak.Wei Mei felt that he was referring to the emperor's decree to teach Wu Min not to have any more contact with her. Although he didn't know how much he knew, he said this out of good intentions, nodded and said: Yes, thank you for reminding me.Naturally, Yilu gave it to the maids, repaired the parts of the Wufu Hall that should be repaired, and replaced her daily utensils with a new set.

The author has something to say:

[Guangling San and Ji Kang] Guangling San is more famous because of Ji Kang.In addition to being an outstanding qin player, Ji Kang was the head of the seven sages in the bamboo forest in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. He disapproved of those long-standing and grandiose dogmas and etiquettes, and even hated those smoky, flattering and deceitful official careers.He would rather be an unknown and free blacksmith outside the city of Luoyang than join the ranks of Zhuzi.He obsessively pursues the lofty state of life in his heart: get rid of constraints, release human nature, return to nature, and enjoy leisure.The raging fire and vigorous hammering are just the wonderful interpretation of this realm.Therefore, when his friend Shan Tao recommended him to be an official to the court, he resolutely broke up with Shan Tao, and wrote the famous "Letter of Breaking Up with Shan Juyuan" in cultural history to show his ambition.Ji Kang's outstanding talent and carefree way of life finally brought him disaster.
