Emperor Tong's Concubine Tong in Qing Dynasty

In ancient times, donkey friends were not something anyone could do if he wanted to.

Even Tian Mi, with so many people serving her, would feel that traveling is a fatal thing if she opens her mouth and stretches out her clothes when she eats.

Sheng Jia left the capital, and the large group of people could step on a slightly flat dirt road with potholes.

The emperor's vehicle was as big as half a house, and there were tables and benches for him to work on the road.But other people are not treated so well. Even if Tian Mi is an imperial concubine, she still has to ride in a very bumpy carriage. The carriage is made of wooden wheels, and there are no anti-shock measures. The bumpy road keeps bumping, Tian Mi feels I was about to spit out my viscera that had been shaken.

In addition, there was a rain in this area some time ago, and the road was already muddy.After the large group of people stepped on it, Tian Mi heard that someone's wheel fell into the ditch.

If we stagger on the road during the day, we may not be able to have a good rest at night.There are no palaces or other buildings along the way, either living in houses or tents.

No matter which one, after finding the water source, people can spend half the night just drinking horse drink, let alone bathing.It is a good treatment to have water to wash your feet.

The inconvenient place is not only food, lodging, clothing and transportation, but also the emperor brought out his precious prince. At this time, the two fathers are kind and filial, and the emperor has no place to show his fatherly love, so he treats the prince differently. Well, the prince must have what he doesn't have, he can't drink water even if he is thirsty, and if someone brings a bowl of tea, he must let the prince drink it.

After coming out for more than 20 days, she ate meat every day. Tian Mi felt that she only ate and did not exercise. She might have grown up in swimming circles. She really wanted to eat a bite of green leafy vegetables, but no matter what kind of vegetables, she had to be close to the prince first.

The farther you go along the road, the less people there are, and you can already see stretches of grassland. The Han people are farming Mongolian horses, and it is difficult to eat fresh vegetables.

Even the other elder brothers got angry, and the fourth elder brother felt that his gums were bleeding, and he opened his small mouth, showing a mouthful of small white teeth for Tian Mi to see his gums.

At this time, it shows that it is good to have relatives. This time, Kua Dai was among the bodyguards accompanying the king. He sent his long entourage to another place on horseback. He ran away for several days in a farm outside the pass. Li paid a lot of money to buy a large bag of garlic sprouts, cabbage and water radish, and while the team was stationed, after dark, someone quietly asked Tian Mi to cook a few dishes and bring them in.

Tian Mi could be moved to tears just by these few dishes of vegetables, but there are too many monks and too little porridge, which can also be said to be less meat and more wolves. This evening, Er Gege brought his younger brothers to eat.

Those present here are Er Gege, Third Elder Brother, Fourth Elder Brother and Fifth Elder Brother.The fifth elder brother never regarded himself as an outsider. Since Sheng Jia left the capital, he followed the fourth elder brother. The two little brothers grew up together, and their relationship has always been good, so they often come over when eating.Er Gege came in advance to make a good relationship. I heard that the fifth elder brother was also there, and dragged her own younger brother, the third elder brother, to come here. Looking forward to getting close to Tian Mi on this road, and someone to intercede for him when referring to marriage in the future.

Now that outsiders know about the green vegetables, Tian Mi can't enjoy them all to himself, so people tell Kua Dai to offer them to the emperor and prince.

Kua Dai directly sent the remaining half bag to the emperor. They were all cousins, and he didn't say anything in the face, "If you like it, you can eat two bites, if you don't like it, give it to someone else. Anyway, these things are found The food for the empress is something that can't be put on the table, so I just eat a fresh bite."

The emperor smiled and scolded the bastard, and kicked him out.

The prince was sitting on the side, watching the emperor get close to Kua Dai, he didn't take it seriously as a young man.But a nun next to him quietly tugged at his clothes.

The prince had no choice but to say: "Huang Ama, seeing that these things are green, why don't you pick some up and ask the people below to fry them and serve them up."

"I think so too. This cabbage is pretty good. Let's take this next bowl of noodles, add more vinegar, and add a little sesame oil and serve it to me."

So the emperor ate another bowl of noodles, and the prince was also happy to see the emperor's father happy.After eating, the father and son said a few words, and he led someone back to the tent rubbing his belly.

As soon as he entered the tent, the nurse next to him said: "Don't read books, the prince. Reading books at night will waste your eyes. The servant will ask you to get some water. You can soak your feet to get tired. Go to bed early, and you have to ride a horse tomorrow."

The prince nodded without hesitation, and fell on the bed after a while, he was already asleep.

It's really hard to walk this way. These princes don't stay in the car if they can ride a horse. They must be tired and panic after sitting on the horse with their backs straightened for a day.Mammy put the thin quilt on him with great distress.

At this moment, a pretty maid came over and said softly, "Mommy, the herring from the imperial concubine's place has gone to fetch hot water."

When the old woman heard this, she couldn't help staring her triangular eyes wide, "There's no lawful thing, and I don't inquire about it. Our prince hasn't used hot water yet. Is it their turn?"

After finishing speaking, he quietly walked out of the tent in a low voice, rolled up his sleeves and went aggressively.

There were several large iron pots where the hot water was heated. Many eunuchs ran back and forth holding firewood. The water in the pots was bubbling and bubbling. An old eunuch stood on a stool and poured a spoonful of water into the In a basin on the ground.

"Okay, Miss Herring, take it and go, the water is too hot, if you accidentally splash it on yourself, it will definitely scald you."

"If you keep giving more, you won't be able to spill as much as you want."

It's really because Tian Mi hasn't washed her hair for the past few days, and her scalp always feels very itchy.Herring came here in person today because she wanted to get some more hot water. When she got back, she mixed it with cold water, let Tian Mi wash her hair first, let her wipe the rest, and then used the water to wash her feet after wiping her body.Nowadays, water is hard to use, and if there is clean water, we should drink it before using it. The emperor and the prince are the same as before, and the elder brothers can take good care of it. Even if the empresses are wronged here, the imperial concubine and concubine Hui can at most wash their faces and feet.The other concubines can only use a basin of washing water for a few people, and after using it, they have to give it to the maids of honor.

Those who came were all the celebrities in front of the master. The old eunuch knew that he could not offend, so he took another spoonful and poured it into the basin gently, "Enough, enough!"

The hot water is really almost full. If it is really full, I'm afraid it won't be easy to take it back.

Herring also brought two people over. Everyone was bending over to bring up the water. Herring was suddenly bumped by someone, and almost fell into the hot water basin. Fortunately, a young eunuch next to him quickly helped her up. But the little eunuch had one hand free to support her, so he couldn't hold the basin. When he was scalded by the hot water, he soaked it with one hand.

Herring immediately turned her head to look back, and saw a fat and tall old palace lady standing behind her.The old palace lady was arrogant, and a little palace lady behind her said, "Isn't this sister Herring from Chengqian Palace? This is the eldest mother in front of our crown prince."

Prince Yinreng has eight wet nurses, and the leading one is called the eldest mother, who has a certain status in the palace. I heard that the empress dowager always thinks that this wet nurse is doing her best and treats her very well. He once gave her a seat and said that she "has made great achievements through hard work".

Although Herring has rank and power, it is inevitable to be polite when facing such a person. "I didn't expect the eldest mother to come in person. If you give orders for such a small matter, there will naturally be a little girl to run errands for you. Why come here in person?"

"It's said that Miss Herring can talk, and I just saw it today. Everyone went there personally, so why bother to talk? There is no water for the crown prince, so how can others use it first? Besides, our emperor loves the crown prince. A lot of things are for the prince's use, and the old man didn't say much, so naturally others can't say much either. Don't you think so, Miss Herring?"

All this brought the emperor out. As a court lady, Qingyu is one of the servants in the palace. What can she say?Trembling with anger, he had no choice but to grit his teeth, "You're right, don't delay the matter of the eldest mother, we will leave now."

Just now the little eunuch let go of one hand in order to support Herring, so the water in the basin was also spilled, Herring led them away with a few quick steps, holding the empty basin in his hand, and furious himself.

Halfway on the way, Herring turned around and gave the little eunuch a sign, "Go to the imperial doctor and get some ointment to rub on your hands. I don't need to serve you for the next two days, and come to the servant after your hands are soaked. "

The little eunuch was very grateful, and the maid next to him who was carrying the basin couldn't help asking: "Girl, my mother is still waiting for the water, we went back with the empty basin..."

Herring stomped his feet irritably, "Follow me first, don't talk."

Tian Mi watched herring come in angrily, she was still chewing a radish, and asked inarticulately, "Why did you come back so soon?"

Herring immediately knelt down and hugged her leg, couldn't help shedding tears twice, and told the story of the prince's man pushing her and scalding the little eunuch, Tian Mi thought about such a trivial matter in her heart It's not the prince's style, maybe it's the group of servants who made their own decisions.

Tian Mi now considers herself to be someone who has some experience in palace fighting, and it can be seen from Concubine De's methods that there are many capable people in this palace.The Prince's aunt, Ping Guiren, was so resolute in her actions at the beginning, if she didn't act, she would have killed her if she did not act, people would disdain such trivial matters.As the grandson of the Hesheli family, I don't believe that the prince can do such an outrageous thing.

Tian Mi asked Qingyu and the palace maid to stand up, "Okay, today's incident has changed, I just pretend I don't know, let's endure her once or twice for the sake of the prince, and then a third time, Be sure to beat her head to pieces. What about the little eunuch who was burned just now, don’t let him rest on the sidelines, and he will be bullied again later, let him come to our place to spread a word and run around, just use Let him do the work he can't do."

The maid behind Herring agreed and was about to go out to deliver the order, when she saw someone open the curtain of the tent and bring in a large basin of hot water.

"Your Majesty, this is what the Crown Prince ordered from the former Grandma. It is said that it is... It is not yet used by the Empress. These are specially sent for the Empress."

Tian Mi heard the maid paused, nodded, and asked her maid to share the hot water.

When there was no one in the tent, Tian Mi patted her heart, took a breath, and said to Herring who was standing aside: "I always want to be kind to others and never pick things up. I think it's not easy for everyone. It's better to have more things than less things." One thing. But I didn’t expect that even the slaves dare to bully me now, is this treating me like a dog? First scold me, and then throw a meaty bone over, do you think I can be honest and obedient?”

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, you can't use such a metaphor. It's their fault."

Tian Mi stretched out her hand and signaled Herring to stop talking, "You don't know, our grandma seems to have tamed the prince to be obedient, and now she wants to do the same trick in front of me, she is so beautiful, if she doesn't If I don't take her seriously when I slap a red date, I can't stand her doing it.

Isn't she usually arrogant because she is the prince's wet nurse?Our prince is getting old, and we don't need a wet nurse to take care of us anymore, and it's time for her to go back and live a good life. "

The emperor's wet nurse, Madam Cao, is a sensible person. Tian Mi still remembers that Madam Cao treated the emperor's concubines and princes with all her heart, even with fear and sincerity.

This grandma only saw the beauty of Cao Mama, but she didn't learn Cao Mama's prudence!
