Retirement in Qing Chuanwen

Concubine Jing was woken up by the servants at the third quarter of Yinzheng. She had been annoyed for a long time because of the quiet canonization ceremony the night before, so after being woken up suddenly, her tone unconsciously Got a little angry.

"It's better if something really happened, otherwise I can't spare you!"

"Master, Elder Brother Yinti has a fever." The maid who guarded Concubine Jing at night already knew that Concubine Jing was in a bad mood all day yesterday, and before going to bed, she tossed and turned on the couch because of something quiet, making it difficult to fall asleep. of.

If it wasn't because there were really important matters, the palace maid would never dare to disturb Jing Concubine's sane dream.

Probably because of lack of sleep, Concubine Jing didn't react for a while when she heard what the maid said, and after she did, she quickly asked someone to change her clothes.

"Have you sent someone to call for the imperial physician?" Concubine Jing asked while putting on her clothes.

"I have already sent someone to invite you." The maid said as she waited on her to change clothes. After all, Yinzhen is the prince, and the people below naturally dare not delay. If something really happened, then they are slaves. You have to suffer.

"Where is the emperor?" Concubine Jing suddenly remembered, and turned to ask the maid, "Have you sent someone to invite you?"

"This..." Hearing this question, the palace lady didn't answer as decisively as she did just now. She thought that everyone knew that yesterday was a good day for Concubine Zhen, so even if elder brother Yinyu was ill, the people below It is normal to think about inviting the imperial physician, but it is also normal not to send someone to invite the emperor.

After all, if they really send someone to invite them, let's not talk about whether they can be invited. Anyway, if the concubine Zhen knows about it, then she will definitely be unhappy.

At that time, if Concubine Jing protects the people who go to invite Kangxi, it will be easier to say something, but if Concubine Jing pushes [-], then they are not the slaves who are unlucky?

Besides, if the emperor is really invited, the master will indeed be very happy, but why do they think this matter is so mysterious?

After all, they knew how much the emperor doted on the concubine Zhen, and they also saw with their own eyes how much their master fell out of favor.

So there were so many people in Jingyang Palace, but none of the slaves dared to invite Kangxi to Jingxiu Palace.

What are the servants below thinking, even if they didn't say it out loud, seeing the reaction of the palace maid, Concubine Jing could guess it all. They didn't dare to go to Jingxiu Palace to invite someone because they saw her falling out of favor Well.

"Trash! They're all trash!" Concubine Jing gave the maid a cold look with her eyes, and then said, "I don't care if Dai Jia's family is Zhenfei, Guifei or Empress, but Yinti is always the emperor's son. Now that Yinqi has a fever, it is reasonable to invite the emperor here."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Jing pointed to the maid and said, "Hurry up, go to Jingxiu Palace immediately and ask the emperor to come over."

"Master." The palace lady's expression changed in fright at Jingbi's words, she knelt down in front of her, and was about to speak when Liuli came in from the outside and said as she walked, "Master, calm down."

Liuli is a first-class court lady beside Jingbi, who has always been valued by Jingbi, so seeing Jingbi get so angry, Liuli dared to say, "It's the third quarter of Yinzheng, even if we send people to Jingxiu Palace now Please the emperor, the emperor can't come here, master."

Because it's almost time to go to court, so what if Yinti is Kangxi's son?It is impossible for him to quit court just because he is sick.

Liuli is very clear about this, and she believes that the master will also understand.

In fact, after hearing what Liuli said, Concubine Jing really gave up the idea of ​​sending someone to Jingxiu Palace to invite Kangxi, she stretched out her hand and threw the comb back into the dowry and said, "Forget it, let's go and see Yinqi."

Concubine Jing wanted to send someone to invite Kangxi because her purpose was not pure. She thought that if she could invite Kangxi from Jingxiu Palace to Jingyang Palace on such a good day as Jinghao, then Jinghao would become a palace. It's a joke.

But who knew that the timing was so unlucky that it was just when Kangxi was about to go to court. If she sent someone to invite the emperor at this time, not only would Dai Jia's family not become a joke in the palace, but she herself would be became a joke.

It was also because of the unfortunate timing that when she learned from the imperial physician that if the nanny could have found out that Yinyu had a fever earlier, he would not have had such a severe fever, Concubine Jing was furious.

"You bastard! I asked you to take care of Yinti, is this how you take care of it?" Concubine Jing pointed to the nanny who was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy and the little palace lady who was keeping vigil for Yinti, "Come on, drag them down for me, I can't afford such a slave!"

"Master, spare your life, master, spare your life."

The nanny and the little palace maid hurriedly kowtowed to beg for mercy, but now the concubine Jing was in a rage, she was angry at them for not discovering that Yinqi had a fever in time, and also angry at them for ruining her chance to make things difficult for Jinghao. The combination of the two reasons was enough to make Concubine Jing vent all her anger on them.

The people below all knew that Concubine Jing was angry now, so no one dared to intercede for the nanny and the others. After Concubine Jing finished speaking, they hurried forward to drag them down.

The nanny and the little palace maid neglected their duties and delayed Yinti's illness. Concubine Jing ordered them to be dragged down. Naturally, the nobleman had no objections, but...

The nobleman glanced at Concubine Jing, and saw that although she was not well dressed, but she had applied lip balm, and the clothes on her body did not seem to be worn casually, she felt a little chilly in her heart.

In fact, the nobleman also knew that Concubine Jing was just Yinzhen's adoptive mother and not her biological mother, so naturally she couldn't do this wholeheartedly for Yincong, but seeing that Yincong was so sick, Concubine Jing wanted to dress up first. Fan, the nobleman still feels unhappy in his heart.

Don't think she doesn't know, she just wanted to take the opportunity to seduce the emperor, but fortunately she had a high-minded appearance before, and she was not a vixen in her bones!

Sure enough, it is most appropriate for Yinti to be taken care of by her own mother.

Concubine Jing didn't know that the nobleman had already hated her, she only regretted that she had missed a great opportunity to add trouble to Jinghao.

……

After leaving the main hall and returning to her room, the nobleman could no longer fall asleep. Hongmei called hot water and said to the nobleman, "My lord, you ran in such a hurry just now that you didn't even wear socks. You will suffer from the cold, the servant has brought you water, can you soak your feet to warm your body?"

After finishing speaking, seeing that the nobleman was stunned and did not respond, Hongmei said, "My lord, I know that you must be worried about Elder Brother Yinyu's illness, but you have to take care of your body, and Elder Yinyu is a very lucky person. With its own appearance, maybe it will be healed soon."

It has to be said that although Hongmei's words sounded fake, the nobleman found it very pleasing to the ear: "Hongmei, you are right, Yinyu auspicious people have their own celestial features, so they will be fine."

It's just that the nobleman still thinks that God is unfair, they are both the sons of the emperor, so it's fine if her Yinzhen is not as noble as the prince, anyway, she is a descendant, but they are all sons and phoenixes, but she is the only one The child is frail?

Thinking of Yinyu suffering from illnesses at a young age, and Dai Jia's Yinyou who was born prematurely but lived so healthy, the unhappiness in the heart of the nobleman can't help but well up in his heart.

And my concubine!

The nobleman thought about what happened just now, and also thought that when she raised Wan Min with her own hands, Wan Min was in good health, but it was Yin Yu's turn to be raised by Concubine Jing, but she made her sick frequently, and his body was getting weaker and weaker day by day. It can be seen that Concubine Jing didn't take good care of her Yinzhen with all her heart.

If not, how could the nanny and the little maid who were serving below be so negligent that they didn't even notice that Yinyu had a fever?

Clearly, it was because of Concubine Jing's dishonesty as the master that the slaves below did not pay much attention to her Yinqi.

In this case, Concubine Jing is not worthy to take care of her Yinhu.

……

Since Jinghao was promoted to Concubine Zhen, Jingxiu Palace has added a group of maids and eunuchs, but the first-class maids around Jinghao are still pomegranates, lychees, red bayberries and cherries, and the new ladies will automatically become second- and third-class court ladies. As for the new eunuchs, Jinghao handed them all over to Xiao Chenzi.

Because everyone knows that Jing Hao is favored, and the new maids and eunuchs have not figured out what kind of temperament Jing Hao is, so even though Jingxiu Palace has a new batch of newcomers, everyone is in peace. Yes, there is nothing wrong with it.

This made Jinghao very satisfied, and what made Jinghao even more satisfied was that Yangmei's investigation had made new progress.

"Master, I found out that the rough eunuch named Xiao Dezi in Jingyang Palace has been running to the Imperial Garden several times recently, and seems to want to get close to the people in the Imperial Garden." Yang Mei told Jing Hao what she had investigated, " Master, do you think this little Dezi has listened to someone's orders again and wants to make some bad plans?"

Although Yang Mei has not found any definite evidence that Jinghao's premature birth was done by people from Jingyang Palace, but she can be sure that this little Dezi must be unclean, and there must be something hidden in Jingyang Palace secret.

"It's hard to say." Jing said well, "Xiao Dezi was originally the eunuch of Jingyang Palace. If there is nothing wrong with it, he naturally couldn't run to the Imperial Garden several times, especially..."

Before Jinghao finished speaking, Lizhi came in, saluted Jinghao and said: "Master, someone from Yonghe Palace just came, and said to send you a letter."

"Yonghe Palace?" Jinghao was taken aback for a moment, isn't that the palace of nobleman Wu Ya?All right, why did she send someone to deliver the letter to her?

"Who is here? Are you still outside?" Jing Hao asked.

"It's Miss Jinchai who is next to nobleman Wuya. She said that she knew that the master and your nobleman are busy, so she didn't bother her any more. After giving the servant the letter that nobleman Wuya sent her, she left first."

While talking, Li Zhi reached out and handed the letter in front of Jing Hao.

After Jing Hao took the letter, the expression on her face was still hard to hide her surprise. After she opened the envelope and saw clearly what was written in the letter inside, the expression on Jing Hao's face became even more surprised.

-

Recently, if you want to ask which part of the palace has the busiest servants, then it must be the House of Internal Affairs and the Imperial Garden.

Needless to say, the Ministry of Internal Affairs is busy, because the main job of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is to manage the royal family's affairs, large and small, and they can't be free on weekdays, let alone now when the new year is approaching?

As for why the Imperial Garden is so busy?Then we have to start with the quiet Jingxiu Palace.

There are East and West Twelve Palaces in the Forbidden City, but Jingxiu Palace is not within the scope of these twelve palaces. It is located due east of Gandong Wusuo and due north of Ningshou Palace.

This location is extremely remote, but I have to say that apart from this shortcoming, the former Jinghao didn't think there were any other shortcoming, but after she gave birth to a child and was promoted to Concubine Zhen, the situation was different up.

Because there are more and more servants serving, the Jingxiu Palace, which was too big in Jinghao's eyes, suddenly became much more crowded.

That is also a helpless thing, after all, Jinghao and Shiliu lived inside and outside of Jingxiu Palace, but now there are Jinghao and Xiao Baokang in Jingxiu Palace, one big and one small. Master, the people who serve around him are not enough to count with the combined hands of mother and son.

As a result, the expansion of Jingxiu Palace is imperative.

As mentioned earlier, Jingxiu Palace is located in a remote location, which is not an advantage, but it is definitely not a disadvantage. Because Jingxiu Palace is located in a remote location, it means that there are many open spaces around it, unlike the east and west palaces. In that way, rows of rows are crowded together, and if you want to expand, you can only find a way from the original basis.

But Jingxiu Palace is different, it can expand outward.

But now that the new year is approaching, it is not good to start construction, after all, if you want to be busy, you have to be busy with the new year.

But it doesn't matter if Jingxiu Palace can't be expanded for a while, the back garden can be built first.

There was already a deserted garden near Jingxiu Palace. We just need to send someone to clean it, and then plant the surviving trees in it. After the spring, Jingxiu Palace will be expanded and the two places will be connected. It became the back garden of Jingxiu Palace.

This project is much easier than expanding the Jingxiu Palace, so the Royal Garden has been busy with it recently.

"Why don't you say that the concubine Zhen is favored." The little eunuchs in the imperial garden couldn't help sighing when they were working, "The concubine who lives in Chengqian Palace and the concubine Niu Colu who lives in Yongshou Palace It is far away from the Imperial Garden, especially the Concubine Niululu, who has to come in a sedan chair every time. The Jingxiu Palace of the Concubine Zhen is only five houses away from the Imperial Garden, so that the Concubine Zhen can enjoy the flowers Playing around, the emperor actually built a back garden for Concubine Zhen."

"Bastard, you can talk about the masters' affairs casually?" Someone laughed and scolded, "If this gets out, you boy will be very careful."

After all, if you lament that the concubine Zhen is favored, you can just lament this. What are you doing with the empress imperial concubine and concubine Niu Colu?This is for fear that others will not know that other empresses will not be favored, right?

But that's what he said, the person who laughed and scolded agreed with the other person's words, thinking that this Concubine Zhen is really not inferior to the former Empress Xiaoxian.

At least the Grandfather did not think about building a back garden for Empress Xiaoxian.

The little eunuch who just started talking also knew the seriousness, so he stopped saying such words, but he was very curious: "How did Eunuch Liu think of transplanting redbud trees? I thought it was just winter, and he would transplant a batch of plum trees over here." Woolen cloth."

"Are you stupid?" The other said, "Although this plum blossom symbolizes nobleness, you forgot that the word plum blossom sounds the same. If the meaning is not good, how can it be transplanted here? How can someone like Mr. Liu be transplanted here?" Is it possible to make such a small mistake?"

As soon as he said this, another little eunuch suddenly realized: "That's right, why didn't I think of it just now? Then it's no wonder that the redbud tree was transplanted, the name sounds nice and beautiful."

After all the bauhinia flowers are in full bloom, the whole sea of ​​purple flowers is indescribably beautiful.

The bauhinia flowers are beautiful, and Eunuch Liu is even more beautiful in his heart at this time. It stands to reason that a slave like him who deals with flowers and plants has no chance to go to the Qing Palace, let alone show his face in front of Long Live God.

But today is different.

The eunuch from Qianqing Palace suddenly came to the Imperial Garden and said that Lord Long Live wanted to summon him about the back garden, and Eunuch Liu felt so beautiful in his heart.

He knew that, because of the momentum of Lord Long Live's doting on Concubine Zhen, he would definitely not go wrong in doing things for Concubine Zhen with all his heart.

"The servant sees the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." Although Eunuch Liu was excited, he didn't dare to make any mistakes when he came to a place like Qianqing Palace. He bowed his head and lowered his eyebrows, kneeling respectfully in front of Kangxi. He salutes.

However, Eunuch Liu's courtesy was done, but Kangxi didn't shout out directly, and Eunuch Liu, who was kneeling on the ground, felt his heart skip a beat.

This situation...

its not right.

Eunuch Liu suddenly became a little flustered, thinking that the emperor asked him to come to the Qing Palace because he knew that he did his best for Concubine Zhen?

However, no matter how flustered he was, Eunuch Liu didn't dare to raise his head, he didn't even dare to move, so he could only continue to wait anxiously.

It seemed that after a long time, and it seemed that it was only a short while, Kangxi finally spoke up, and he said: "Get up."

"Hey." Eunuch Liu responded immediately, and after getting up from the ground in a hurry, his expression was more humble and respectful than before.

"Do you know why I sent you here?" Kangxi put down the brush in his hand, and looked up at Eunuch Liu.

At this time, in front of Eunuch Liu, Kangxi was not as warm and friendly as he was in front of Jinghao and the others on weekdays.

"This... I don't know." Eunuch Liu said.

"Then I would like to ask you, why did you plant the redbud tree in Concubine Zhen's back garden? Is this your own idea, or who suggested it to you?" Kangxi asked in a deep voice.

Hearing Kangxi's words, Eunuch Liu's face changed. Could it be that something happened to the redbud tree that was transplanted in the back garden of Concubine Zhen?But that's not right, he had chosen the purpose himself, so how could there be a problem?

Thinking of this, Eunuch Liu boldly raised his eyes and looked at Kangxi secretly, but who knew that he happened to meet his gaze, so that Eunuch Liu fell to his knees in front of Kangxi with a plop in fright.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Although Eunuch Liu had only glanced at it just now, seeing that Kangxi didn't seem to be rewarding him for his merits, he didn't dare to ask for credit for himself right now, and said, "This move The matter of planting the redbud tree was indeed not what the servant thought of, but Xiao Dezi, the eunuch of Jingyang Palace, suggested to the servant, saying that transplanting plum blossoms is easy to offend people, but transplanting redbuds is different. And said..."

Eunuch Liu didn't dare to hide anything, and told him everything that Xiao Dezi had said to him.

Kangxi asked after listening, "You have a close relationship with Xiao Dezi?"

"It's not true if you go back to the emperor." Eunuch Liu said while wiping the cold sweat from his brow, "This servant and Xiao Dezi just met each other a few times."

"Then why did you do what he suggested to you?" Kangxi asked.

"Because Xiao Dezi said... that he remembered that the servant had helped his fellow countrymen, so he wanted to give advice to the servant, but the servant also checked. Although the seeds of this redbud tree are poisonous, its bark and fruit are flowery. All of them can be used as medicine, and they are also very suitable for viewing.”

Eunuch Liu is not the kind of person who is easy to trust people, and he and Xiao Dezi have no relatives and no reason, so after listening to his suggestion, he went to check the relevant records of the Bauhinia flower to make sure that there is no problem with it. Decided to transplant it in the back garden.

"Oh?" Kangxi said, "Then didn't you find out that although the bauhinia flower has a mild fragrance, its pollen is extremely easy to induce asthma?"

When Eunuch Liu heard this, he was stunned. After he realized it, he quickly kowtowed to Kangxi and said, "The emperor spares! This servant knows that the redbud flower can be harmful, so even if you let this servant suffer, you would never dare to transplant a redbud tree."

"Please learn from the emperor, please learn from the emperor."

Eunuch Liu really hates Xiao Dezi now. Although the Concubine Zhen of Jingxiu Palace does not have asthma, there is still a prematurely born and precious little master living in Jingxiu Palace.

If it is true that a batch of redbud trees are transplanted to the back garden, even if Brother Yinyou will be fine for a while, but after years of contact, who knows if he will suffer from asthma?

It was precisely because Jinghao thought of this that she felt that the nobleman was really vicious.

Because asthma is a chronic disease of the respiratory system, it cannot be diagnosed immediately. Before Jinghao, a friend had symptoms of dyspnea when she was young, but because her parents did not think about asthma, they thought She just had a cold, so she was treated in the wrong direction. As a result, when it got serious, a thorough investigation found out that she had asthma.

But it was too late, because she was much weaker than her peers because of too many medicines she took when she was a child.

Jinghao felt sorry for her friend when she found out about this incident. She couldn't imagine what to do if the same thing happened to Xiao Baokang.

Although asthma is preventable, natural and man-made are completely different concepts.

Jinghao really can't figure it out, when did she offend that nobleman, why did she use such vicious tricks to harm her son?

When she received the letter from Mrs. Wuya, Jinghao was surprised because the first sentence written in the letter was——

The person who caused you to give birth prematurely is that noble man.

As for the following content, it basically said that the nobleman's hatred for her continued undiminished, and he planned to attack her again. As for how the nobleman planned to attack her, nobleman Wu Ya also made it clear in the letter.

When she saw the letter, Jing Hao was dubious about the content of the letter, but when she learned that the people in the Royal Garden really planned to transplant a batch of redbuds, Jing Hao felt chills all over her body.
