Chapter 3 Mother and Son

Bypassing the Great Buddha Hall from the back, and returning to Yinqi's own residence in the east side hall of the Compassionate Ning Palace, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.Today is also considered unlucky, firstly being called away by Kangxi, and then encountering such an evil star as Yinzhen.

Yin Qi rubbed his ankles, he walked a lot this day, but his body, which is less than five years old, couldn't take it anymore.Just as he was rubbing, a maid in blue came in from outside the room. Seeing Yinqi, she ran over to take off his shoes and socks in two or three steps, and rubbed his feet and legs.

Yin Qi looked at her coldly, and said, "Gao Hui, why didn't you see Yuhong today? And Wengu Qinglan and the others, did they go to hide? You are the biggest in this room, and you don't know how to teach them a lesson. ?”

Gao Hui lowered her head and said while exerting force with her hands: "How dare they be lazy? It's just that the Jin mother beside the queen mother said that the queen mother left something for the master to think about, and asked someone to go and get it. Yuhong is Those who were in charge of the things in Grandpa's house naturally went. When I got there, I saw that the Queen Mother had left four big boxes for Grandpa. How could Yuhong get them back by herself? She came back and called a few Su Las, Wen Guqing Lan is going to help."

The strength in her hands is just right, Yinqi sighed in relief, and said: "It's just to watch the excitement. They are needed wherever you move things? It's Gao Hui, you know how to guard the house and wait for the master to come back. "

Gao Hui smiled, and there were two dimples on both cheeks, she didn't look like someone who was eighteen or nineteen, but a little girl who hadn't grown up yet.

This Gao Hui was assigned to Yin Qi by the Empress Dowager two years ago. Yin Qi saw her face and asked her to be his maid of honor.It looked fine at first, but today's incident happened again.I just don't know whether she has other thoughts, or she is also being framed.

But think about it, she is almost twenty now, so naturally she has to have some plans of her own.Yin Qi is not yet five years old, and this master probably has no hope, so he can only think about going out of the palace.

A few days ago, the queen mother passed away again. Who knows what will happen to Yinqi without the queen mother as his backer?She is not a slave in clothes under the name of Zhengjing Yinqi. If she is released from the palace in the future, Yinqi will have nothing to do with her.Her whole life will naturally be devoted to someone else.Her family is the most common coat under the banner, and when she leaves the palace at 25, she might end up in what kind of family.

Yin Qi's eyes were a little darker.It's not that Gao Hui didn't have a reason to betray him.It seems that the people around here, no matter how many years they have followed him, should be more careful.

When Yu Hong was brought up last year, he wondered if he would feel sorry for Gao Hui.Looking back now, it was really the right thing to do.I remember that the queen mother didn't say anything about him entrusting all the money and things in the house to Yuhong, and it seemed that she had similar thoughts.After all, Gao Hui is not her slave, but Yu Hong and her family are in her hands.

For a while, I thought of Su Yao again.That child is really loyal to him, and it is not in vain that he saved his life from Elder Brother Ten back then.His whole family is dead, and he follows Yin Qi alone, but he is not afraid that he will have other plans because of the burden of the family, which will be bad for the master.

In the past few years in the court, I have really lost many things from my previous life, and I am more and more like the elder brother who was born and raised in this era.Yin Qi smiled wryly to himself, this was also forced.If he said that human rights are equal, he would be dizzy now.He can't do it himself, let alone, all the servants in his house will die.

It's just that as time goes by, it really becomes a habit.Now thinking about these intrigues, I really don't regard the slave's life as human life.

Yin Qi sighed again, and said to Gao Hui: "Don't pinch it anymore. It's much better now. Go and get some hot milk, I'll drink it and sleep for a while. By the way, the emperor will go to Xiaotangshan after the Lantern Festival , ordered me to drive, you have also paid attention to it in the past few days, tidy it up, and don't get in a hurry."

Gao Hui agreed and stood up from the bed in front of the kang.Yin Qi narrowed his eyes and watched her go out.

When Gao Hui came back with a bowl of milk and two plates of snacks, Yin Qi had already fallen asleep with his eyes closed.

Gao Hui put the things on the small kang table, lightly changed Yin Qi's position, and covered him with a quilt.

Then I looked at his sleeping face in a trance.

After a while, Gao Hui wiped her reddened eyes, cleaned up the dishes, and went out slowly.

~~~~~~~

Kangxi didn't seem to like staying in the Forbidden City, and once he got out of the city, he looked much more energetic.His face was not as sallow as it was when Yin Qi met the other day, but it was actually rosy.If it weren't for the age spots at the corners of his eyes, he would really look like a child with white hair.

In the past few days, maybe it was because Yinqi reminded him of someone. Kangxi treated Yinqi with a seldom friendly face, and he actually looked like a loving father.Manchus have always been strict with their sons, Kangxi just didn't shout at Yinqi, Yinqi already felt like Mu Tianen.Being able to see Kangxi's smiling face and hear his warm voice, Yin Qi just felt that it was unreal like a dream.

But even if it is really in a dream, you have to be careful.Since leaving Beijing, Kangxi seldom let Yinqi leave his side during the few days.When the father and son were on their way, they sat on the imperial court together and gossiped, or when Kangxi was taking a nap, Yinqi squeezed his shoulders and beat his legs; when they arrived at the residence of the palace, when Kangxi saw the ministers and reviewed the papers, Yinqi read and practiced calligraphy in the ear room next door. .

In just four or five days of hard work, Yin Qi only felt that four or five years had passed.When getting along with Kangxi, you have to be careful all the time.Every word he said had to be pondered carefully; every word he said had to be repeated in his heart a dozen times before he dared to say it.Even if you are not in the same room, you have to worry about the eyes and ears on the wall.Not to mention that Yinqi is playing the role of a filial and adoring young son at this time, and he has to think about what an ordinary four or five-year-old child would say and do to his old father.

Really exhausting.

Fortunately, Yinqi didn't have to be alone with Kangxi all the time, except for the eunuch Xing Nian and Li Dequan who sometimes accompanied Kangxi to talk, there were always accompanying concubines who came to say hello and please the emperor.

Yin Qi had also met on the imperial court, and it was Concubine Yi and Concubine Chen Guiren, the mother of Yin Xi, who came back to Xiaotangshan.Speaking of which, Concubine He and Guiren Chen have been favored the most in the past two years.As for Concubine Yi, she has been favored for many years.In addition, the Empress Dowager loved her the most during her lifetime, and now that the Empress Dowager is newly mourned, Kangxi would like to talk more with Concubine Yi and miss the Empress Dowager.

It was only when he arrived at Xiaotangshan that Yinqi realized that there were more than three concubines accompanying him.The mother of his body, the noble Shi Shi, was also summoned by Kangxi.

Jinggui's sense of presence is really low. After two days on the road and three days in Xiaotangshan, no one knew that she was here too.It was not until the night of the third day when Kangxi came to Xiaotangshan that a young eunuch came to Zaoxuetang where Kangxi lived, found Yinqi who was accompanying him, and said, "Master Jing, you want to see Master 23?" , Lord, when will you be free?"

Yin Qi pondered for a long time before he remembered who this Jinggui master was.It turned out to be his own mother-in-law.

Thinking about it, I haven't seen her for a while. Since the queen mother was seriously ill in November, Yinqi has been serving the sickness until the queen mother passed away. Yinqi concentrated on observing her filial piety and praying for blessings, but forgot to pay her respects to Mrs. Jing.

This noble man Jing has a soft temperament. When he sees Yin Qi, although he wants to get close in his eyes, there is actually a little fear in his expression.Yinqi knew that it was because he was favored by the queen mother, but Jing noble was born in a coat. He was afraid that Yinqi was too close to him, which would hinder Yinqi's future future.

Moreover, she was worried that Yinqi would be spoiled by the queen mother, and would not pay attention to her, the mother-in-law.Therefore, every time mother and child meet, there are rarely times when both of them are happy.

Because of being a quiet and noble person, Yin Qi has a deep understanding of what kind of life the fourth elder brother Yin Zhen lived in those years.The mother of the birth actually can't avoid her, so what's the point if she is favored by the empress dowager?

Yin Qi is really fortunate that he had memories of his previous life when he was reincarnated.

In the two years he traveled through time, he became a grown man at 26, and when he thought of Mr. Jing, he sometimes felt uncomfortable.If I were really a child, I still don't know how to cry.I'm afraid that from the root, the xinxing will be destroyed.

He also thought of the few times he met Prince Yong, he clearly had a handsome face, but there was no expression on it.This is also a child who was tortured since childhood, Yin Qi thought, and suddenly felt that his life was actually good.

Yinqi looked back at Zaoxuetang again, Kangxi was leaning on the guiding pillow, Xing Nian took a book and put it in front of him, waiting for him to read.After thinking about it, Yin Qi still ran back, saluted Kangxi well, and then said: "Father, my son's wife Er Niang sent a message to see Er Chen. Er Chen also misses Er Niang a little bit, have no idea……"

He looked at Kangxi with watery eyes that were more black than white, and Kangxi had been a loving father for a few days, at this time he also reached out to touch Yinqi's head, and said with a smile: "Then you can go. This is also filial piety."

Yin Qi saw that he seemed very happy, so he responded with a smile.Running out again, the little eunuch stood shyly outside, looking inside eagerly.

"Take your eyes back!" Yin Qi frowned.

Although the little eunuch was looking at him, Kangxi was also spying on him when he was inside.Let others see, I'm afraid the little eunuch will die.The little lady was listening, and hurriedly lowered her head.Yin Qi looked at him, also not clever.

Curling his lips, Yinqi said: "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Lead the way!"

Only then did the little eunuch know that he answered, and walked ahead to lead Yinqi the way.

~~~~~~~

Since she is not favored, even if she has a son raised by the queen mother, no one will take her seriously.She lives in a small side courtyard of Concubine Yi's courtyard, but at least she has not lost her identity.

But no one dared to be harsh on her, Yin Qi walked all the way to look around, entered Jinggui's room, looked around while saying hello, it was not bad.

As soon as Mr. Jing saw Yinqi, his eyes turned red.However, mother and child have been separated for many years, and they endured it again, and only pulled Yinqi and said, "My brother has grown taller these days. It's just that I lost weight..."

Yinqi laughed and said: "The queen mother passed away, and Yinqi wanted to keep her filial piety. Even if the emperor's Qing has been reduced, it is natural for Yinqi to be a grandson."

When mentioning the Queen Mother, Mrs. Jing fell silent immediately.After a while, he said frowningly: "Now that the queen mother is gone, brother, what can you do..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Yinqi stopped and said: "Without the queen mother, there is naturally my father to educate me. Don't worry about Er Niang, Yinqi is fine."

Hearing the word "Father Emperor", Mr. Jing stopped talking.Yin Qi looked at her with some worry. How could such a young girl who just turned [-] fall in love with that old man Kangxi?

Anyway, Kangxi will not fall in love with her, she is frowning, I am afraid it is not time to start.Yin Qi hurriedly changed the topic, and said: "Emiang, I heard that there are many grandsons accompanying me this time, I would like to meet some, and it would be good to be a playmate."

Jinggui heard this, and didn't think about Kangxi for a while, but said anxiously: "Don't dare. Those brothers, you'd better stay away. It's not that Er Niang doesn't allow you to play, but... I'm afraid that the emperor will say that you don't want to play." Go up!"

Yin Qiyuan had no intention of playing with those "nephews" who had complicated and troublesome backgrounds, but he just used this excuse to let Jinggui turn his mind from the emperor to his son.He listened to Mr. Jing's lesson with a smile at the moment, and just pretended not to care.Jinggui was anxious about her son, so Kangxi was left behind by her.

Mrs. Jing was not good at words, after a few words, he was out of words, and only twisted the handkerchief in his hand.

Fearing that she would be in a hurry, Yinqi hurriedly said: "Yinqi has memorized Er Niang's lesson. It's just what he said, and the emperor is watching, so Yinqi dare not play."

His expression was sincere, Jinggui was relieved and said: "Emiang just begs you to be well, that's all."

At this time, the queen mother is gone, and Mrs. Jing dared to say something to express her concern.It was the first time for Yin Qi to hear her say such a thing. She was a little surprised, but she still felt warm in her heart, and said with a smile: "Well, my son knows."

This was the first time that Yin Qi felt that he was really cared for by Jing Guiren's side.In the early days, Mrs. Jing was always evasive and did not dare to reveal anything. After a long time, Yin Qi naturally felt cold-hearted.

Now Mrs. Jing has the courage not to dodge, and Yin Qi feels much better.Since the Queen Mother passed away, no one really cared about him so much, so he was naturally moved.

The mother and son were talking, although they had nothing in common, Jinggui was timid and did not dare to gossip in the palace, but Yinqi tried hard to find something, and there was always something to talk about.

After an hour, Yinqi only felt his mouth was dry, and looked at the sky, Kangxi was about to be resettled, so he said to Jinggui: "Emiang, it's getting late, I'm afraid the emperor is looking for me. "

When Mr. Jing heard this, how could he dare to keep him?Immediately, he was so nervous that he clenched his handkerchief tightly and said, "Then you go back quickly."
