[Qing Chuan] I became the queen mother after salted fish

On the morning of the second day of junior high school, after Si Ning packed up, she went to Jingren Palace to pay her respects to the queen.

When he arrived, several other low-ranking concubines had already arrived.

They stood up and saluted Si Ning, Si Ning raised her hand with a smile: "There is no need to be too polite, let's all sit down."

After speaking, he sat down in his seat.

Concubine Xun was next to her, and when she sat down, she smiled and whispered: "Your Majesty came at the right time, Mrs. Chungui was just talking to my concubine about the material that the Ministry of Internal Affairs issued this year, and it is better than before. Three points."

Si Ning raised her eyebrows. This year Niu Hulu is the successor. It is the first year in charge of palace affairs. It is normal to give some benefits to the concubines.

"I haven't had time to look at the materials there, so it's the same if I think about it." Si Ning said softly.

Concubine Xun covered her mouth and smiled: "Your Majesty has a lot of good things in front of her, so naturally she doesn't like them."

Si Ning shook his head with a smile: "You are wrong, as long as it is a good thing, I like it."

Just as she was talking, Niu Hulu came out of the house. She looked a little tired, probably because yesterday's ancestor worship was a bit exhausting.

Si Ning and the others stood up to greet her, but she raised her hand in acknowledgment.

After everyone sat down, Niu Hulu swept around the people in the room, frowned slightly, looked at Chungui and said, "Why didn't Yugui come?"

Mrs. Chungui looks beautiful, and today she was wearing a light blue flag dress, looking even more elegant, she got up and bowed and said: "Returning to the Empress, Mrs. Yugui felt a little uncomfortable when I woke up this morning, and I can't get off now." bed, so let the slaves plead guilty for her."

The queen frowned. Yu Guiren has been ill since the end of last year, and the palace also invited the imperial doctor to see him. Unexpectedly, it has been the New Year and it is still not good.

But the empress knew it well, she was ill, it was better to say she was heartbroken, if she made a fool of herself in front of the emperor, she might not be able to stand up in the future, and it is estimated that Yugui would be too embarrassed to appear in front of others again.

The queen thought about it and sighed: "Okay, since that's the case, then let her rest well. You entered the palace together, and you should support each other. You should take care of Yugui more on weekdays."

Mr. Chungui hastily saluted and responded.

After finishing talking about Mrs. Yugui, the queen said some things that should be paid attention to during the Chinese New Year, and when she was done talking, she let them go back.

As soon as Si Ning got out of the gate of Jingren Palace, Si Ning just got on the shoulders, when Concubine Xun said that she was going to visit her in the palace, Si Ning had no choice but to agree, and the two of them headed towards Yi Kun Palace one after the other. up.

After returning to Yikun Palace and changing out of their big clothes, the two of them sat on the couch and drank some tea before they started talking.

There was a hint of sarcasm in the concubine's words: "Mother, don't you think Chungui seems to be a kind person today, but my concubine thinks that the condition of Yugui is weird no matter how you look at it."

"The disease is said to be caused by the cold. Yugui himself is sick, so why didn't he think more about it? Even if he accidentally caught the cold while sleeping at night, he should be sick the next day, so as not to run into the dragon. body, but it turned out to be so small, and fell ill right in front of the emperor, no matter how you think about it, it’s not right.”

In fact, Si Ning also felt that something was wrong, Yugui was so favored, but fell ill at the moment when the fire was the hottest, this indeed sounds a bit too coincidental.

"Then what do you think?" Si Ning looked at Concubine Xun curiously.

Concubine Xun is the number one gossip king in the palace, Sining really wants to hear what she has to say.

Concubine Xun looked around and saw that there was no one, so she approached cautiously and said in a low voice: "I feel that I can't get away from Mr. Chungui. Think about it, when the two of you first entered the palace, Mr. Chungui Being as good as Yugui is like being alone, the palace is full of people, Yugui believes in Chungui most, but I don't know him well, the most ruthless stabbing person in this world is also the person you are most familiar with, think about it, In the end, it is Chungui who benefited from this matter."

Si Ning sighed, she actually had this thought vaguely in her heart, but there was no evidence at all, it was just a random thought.

"This is an unfounded statement, you are not allowed to talk nonsense in the future." Si Ning said seriously.

Concubine Xun nodded: "Don't worry, I'll tell you what's on my mind. Now that Mr. Chungui has won the emperor's favor, I'm afraid it will be a matter of time before I become a concubine."

Si Ning smiled: "You have five princesses, I'm afraid it's not difficult to become a concubine."

Concubine Xun smiled a little embarrassedly: "Then I will borrow my mother's good words."

Afterwards, the two of them didn't talk about these gossips anymore, they just talked about some gossip and chatted for a while. Seeing that it was almost noon, Concubine Xun went back to the palace, and Si Ning took a nap. She didn't rest well last night. I need to catch up on sleep.

……

After Mrs. Chungui left Jingren Palace, she headed towards Yonghe Palace, and now she and Mrs. Yugui lived in Yonghe Palace.

As soon as he entered the palace gate, he heard a cough coming from the Dongpei Hall, Mr. Chungui paused, and finally headed towards the Dongpei Hall.

As soon as he walked to the door, he smelled a strong smell of medicine. Mr. Chungui covered his mouth and nose with a kerchief before entering the house.

The maid in front of Mrs. Yugui welcomed her into the back room. As soon as she entered, she saw Mrs. Yugui lying on the couch with a pale face and shortness of breath.

Seeing her coming in, Yu Guiren forced a smile on his beautiful face: "Sister is here."

Mr. Chungui hurried forward and grabbed Mr. Yugui's hand. It was so cold that Mr. Chungui trembled when he shook it.

"Is my sister feeling better today?" She looked at Yu Guiren sincerely.

The noble man sighed, his face full of despair: "It's alright, so what, the emperor has completely despised me, and I will just live in this palace in the future." Said that the noble man stayed tears.

Chungui also shed tears with her, and said after a long time: "Sister, don't think so, my sister is unparalleled in appearance, as long as the illness recovers, the emperor will remember my sister sooner or later."

But Yugui shook his head: "Why bother, I know with my body, this disease is also the root of the old disease, it is impossible to completely get rid of the root, it is just lingering in this palace to survive."

Seeing Yugui's decadence like this, Chungui's heart was relieved, but he still had a look of gratitude on his face: "Sister said so, I feel uncomfortable listening to it."

Yugui gave a miserable smile: "Sister, you don't have to feel sorry for me. This may be my fate. It's a fluke to have the status of nobleman now. I don't dare to ask for anything else."

Mrs. Chungui was silent when she heard this, she didn't know how to comfort her, the two of them looked at each other silently for a long time, Mrs Yugui didn't want to make Mrs Chungui feel uncomfortable, so she cheered up and said something else: "Today My sister asked for leave for me, the empress didn't make things difficult for you, did she?"

Talking about this Chungui, he hesitated to speak, and after a long time said: "The empress is generous, why would you make things difficult for me, sister, don't think too much."

But Yugui saw the clue, and felt guilty on his face: "Sister, don't lie to me. I am like this now. Does the empress hate me in her heart? It's all because I don't live up to it, but you are also being pointed out by others."

Chungui hurriedly squeezed Yugui's hand: "Sister, please don't say that, you and I are sisters, this is nothing, and the empress is generous, she really didn't make things difficult for me, and she asked me to take care of my sister , my sister is rest assured to recuperate."

But it's all at this point, how could Lady Yugui believe Chungui's words, only when she was comforting herself, she could only cry while saying: "Sister, you don't need to comfort me, I understand in my heart, in this palace, Now I am the only one who can trust my sister."

Mr. Chungui also held onto Mr. Yugui's hand with tears in his eyes: "I only trust my sister. Although this deep palace is lonely, as long as we sisters rely on each other, life will always be easy every day."

After comforting Mrs. Yugui for a while, and coaxing her to sleep peacefully, Mrs. Chungui stood up, ordered a few words to the maid, and then turned back to her Western Palace.

As soon as she entered the gate of the Xipei Hall, the mask of sympathy and pity was removed from her face.

She stood in her room, looked carefully, and glanced left and right. They were also nobles. She lived in the West Side Hall, while the Yugui lived in the East Side Hall.

They are also the emperor's concubines, and the decorations in Yuguiren's room are better than hers.

Even the servants who serve below are just flattering Yugui, and perfunctory and contemptuous towards her.

They entered the palace together, they all have the same status, and their lives are very different, why is this?

In the late night when she was not favored, she always asked herself over and over again.

Later, when she saw the ostentation of empresses and imperial concubines in the harem, she finally understood that in this palace, only the emperor likes you, and only when you ascend to a high position can your life be easier, and no one else will look down upon you. you.

So from that day on, all the original sisterhood has dissipated.

At noon that day, Yu Guiren got the news of the flop, and happily pulled himself to tell his joy.

She looked at the person in front of her, who only had a skin, weak, superficial, stupid, and vain inside. How could such a person deserve to ride on her head?

So thinking about what Yugui told herself about her illness before entering the palace, at noon that day, during Yugui's lunch break, she secretly opened the window of her inner room.

The cold winter wind blows in, and completely blows away the favor of the nobleman.

Thinking of this, the corner of Chungui's mouth raised a secret smile.

The changes in personnel and affairs in this world are actually nothing more than that, it depends on you, you have to be cruel.

……

At the beginning of February, Xiunu entered the palace.

This is the first time that the queen has hosted an audition in a serious manner, so she attaches great importance to it, and even invites Si Ning to help.

In fact, Si Ning is too lazy to take care of these things, but the queen always has to give her face, and she can see the beautiful young lady, which is actually not bad.

I have watched several show girls before and after, and there are a few outstanding ones, among which the most outstanding one is the Guerjia family.

She is beautiful and has a good background. She is of the same family as Erfujin's Guerjia family. According to her seniority, she should be Erfujin's niece, which is quite interesting.

The queen should like her quite a lot, so she invited her to meet with her several times, and mentioned the Guerjia family to Jiaqing a few times.

However, Jiaqing seemed indifferent, as if he didn't have much interest in this Guerjia family, but was more interested in another Liu Jia family.

This Liu Jia's appearance is also beautiful, with a slender figure, fair complexion, soft-spoken and soft-spoken, his eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Si Ning.

Si Ning felt that it was quite appropriate, but Jiaqing couldn't help liking it. As a result, the Guarjia family only sealed An Changzai, while Liu Jiashi sealed the letter as a nobleman, and Chun Changzai, maybe he really hated the empress. I like it, and this time I also sealed the spring nobleman together.

Later, when arranging the residence, the queen originally wanted to arrange An Changzai in Si Ning's palace, but Si Ning obliquely refused.

The Queen's complexion was very bad, but since Si Ning had already opened her mouth, she was not in a position to make things difficult, so she could only bear with it, and let An Changzai live in Chuxiu Palace, and Xingui Ren lived in Changchun Palace.

Changchun Palace was unoccupied, and the concubines of Chuxiu Palace did not dare to be as presumptuous as Si Ning, so there would be no twists and turns in this arrangement.

……

After the selection of this show, the palace completely quieted down, and the layout of the palace was initially settled.

As a veteran favorite concubine, Si Ning's favored concubine was inevitably squeezed because so many newcomers were recruited, but the problem was not too big. Jiaqing still had some affection for her, and she was able to come here every month About ten times, I can go to the queen's place five or six times, and the rest is basically divided among Chungui, Chungui and the new Xingui, but the original old man is not to be outdone. Recently, he has also started to strive for favor, and Jiaqing can go to her place two or three times a month.

Days went by day by day, and during this process, the relationship between Si Ning and Mianyi's Fujin and Xiao Niu Hulu clan became closer.

The little Niu Hulu girl is a good wife and mother in a standard feudal context.

In this year's draft, not only did Jiaqing enter the harem, Jiaqing also pointed out someone to Mianyi.

After pointing out everyone, I ran to Si Ning and told her, the words were full of words, I was doing it for my son's sake, and the person I pointed out to him is also of high quality, just wait to have a grandson.

Si Ning is a little speechless, Mian Yi has only been married for a long time, and pointed out someone to him, before getting married, she had already pointed out Ge Ge in front of her.

However, the little Niu Hulu family behaved very calmly, as if they had expected this a long time ago, they were also very kind to the new girl, and took good care of Mianyi's back house.

After seeing it, Si Ning couldn't help but tell Mian Yi to treat you Fujin better in the future.

Mian Yi agreed, and Si Ning didn't know if he would do it, but when she faced the little Niu Hulu, she showed a lot of kindness, and Niu Hulu was also very filial to her, From time to time, I would make some needlework for her and bring it over, and sometimes when Wu Linzhu was around, I would give her some pointers.

Wu Linzhu likes this sister-in-law very much, and always speaks well of her in front of Sining.

Si Ning also likes little Niu Hulu, this girl is really gentle to the bottom of her heart.

……

At the beginning of April, the family went to Yuanmingyuan again.

But this time there were many people there, so they didn't live in the natural picture anymore. Some of them followed the queen to live in Tiandi Family Spring, and some followed Si Ning to live in Changchun Immortal Hall.

The Changchun Immortal Hall is the place where Empress Xiaosheng lived. It had been sealed up before, and now it is only let people live in it. Therefore, it has been tidied up, and it is much cleaner inside and out.

As for the children, Wu Linzhu still lives with Sining, and Mianyi is given to live in Wuling Spring, where Qianlong used to study. As for the remaining brothers, they all live in the elder brother's house in the garden. Ning is no exception.

At noon that day, Si Ning was sitting in the room talking with Niu Hulu and Wu Linzhu, when suddenly there was a word from outside that the concubine Xun had come, and Si Ning immediately sent someone to tell her to come in.

Concubine Xun saw that her face was covered with sweat, as if she had trotted all the way here, Si Ning hurriedly had someone pour warm water on her, she drank several sips, and then she felt more comfortable.

"The one who came all the way and took me away, but asked me to go over and talk. I passed by, but I made a lukewarm gesture. I'm really pissed off." Concubine Xun was talking about Concubine Ying.

Back in the courtyard, Concubine Ying lived with the Empress in Tiandijiachun, while Concubine Xun lived with her in Changchun Immortal Hall, there was a distance between the two places, no wonder Concubine Xun complained.

"Why did I remember that I asked you to talk to me? I remember that you two are not familiar." Si Ning asked curiously.

Concubine Xun sneered: "Who knows why, I passed by today, and I happened to see the empress and Mrs. Chun sitting in the yard talking, don't tell me, I think the empress really treats Mrs. Chun as her daughter." Well, the way you speak softly, I was shocked when I saw it, the material of the dress on Mrs. Chun, but this year the Empress Empress got it newly, and she is willing to give it to Mrs. Chun."

Si Ning also listened with gusto, did not expect the relationship between the empress and Mrs. Chun to be so good, but she used to be very kind to the concubines, very lenient and very popular.

"Chun Gui is young and lively, he is really likable." Si Ning said with a smile.

Concubine Xun didn't talk about this topic anymore, but instead talked about Mr. Chungui, whose popularity has gradually faded recently, but when she came back to Yuanmingyuan, she suddenly begged the emperor to bring Mrs. Yugui with her, saying that Yuanmingyuan is good for recuperation .The emperor was very happy that the sisters were so affectionate, and rewarded her again, and the favor was restored.

Concubine Xun sneered when she mentioned this: "You're really shrewd, even Yugui has fallen to this point, and you can still get benefits from her."

After saying this, Wu Linzhu looked at Si Ning and Concubine Xun curiously. Si Ning thought to get rid of her, and don't tell her to listen to these things. It is good to know some things after getting married, so she was not let out after all.

He just said indifferently: "Master Yugui is seriously ill now, it's good to come to the garden, the environment here is better than the Forbidden City, and he can recuperate well."

In front of the child, concubine Xun didn't say anything, but sarcastically said: "I only hope that Mrs. Chungui really thinks so. With all the people in the palace, I hope who can't see what she's thinking."'

Si Ning pursed her lips and said nothing.

……

When Concubine Xun left at noon, the little Niu Hulu family also went out to give Sining Zhang Luo lunch, Wulin Zhuwo came to Sining's side, and asked in a low voice, "Emiang, what's the matter with Chungui and Yugui?"

Seeing her daughter's innocent appearance, Si Ning finally told her about this matter in detail, and also told her about concubine Xun's conjecture.

After finishing speaking, the child was stunned, and it took a long time before he said: "Why, why is this so? It shouldn't be true, right?"

Si Ning touched her daughter's head: "I think it's almost inseparable, but whether it's true or not, I hope that you will not have the intention of harming others in the future, and the heart of guarding against others is indispensable. There are many things in this world. You think it’s impossible and unnecessary, but some people can really do it.”

Wu Linzhu lowered her head in frustration, and after a long time raised her head to look at Si Ning: "Er Niang, am I stupid? If it were me, I wouldn't have thought of this at all."

Si Ning couldn't help laughing: "Our Wu Linzhu is not stupid, but we are too kind-hearted and always think about the good of people."

Wu Linzhu heard Er Niang coaxing her like a child, blushed a little embarrassedly, and whispered: "I remember what Er Niang said, and I will not believe anyone except Er Niang in the future."

Si Ning looked at her daughter's innocent face, and didn't say anything. It's easy for someone who hasn't experienced anything before to say something, but it's hard to do it.

……

For lunch at noon this day, Si Ning shared with Wu Linzhu and Niu Hulu's family.

Niu Hulu served two chopsticks of dishes for Si Ning, and Si Ning asked her to sit down. This child is too disciplined and is not used to sitting down to eat directly, so Si Ning is not difficult for her, let her That's what it means.

After finishing the meal, Wu Linzhu took a rest in Sining's house, Niu Hulu also served Sining to rest, and then he said goodbye and left.

When she does things, she is always prudent and steady, and she never follows the truth. Sometimes Si Ning will persuade her, and sometimes she will let her go.

……

They waited until June, and a group of them went to Mulan.

At the age of the emperor, he can no longer ride a horse, so this year's hunt, Jiaqing finally came out.

But He Shen, as Qianlong's eyes and ears, also attended together.

Jiaqing could bear it, and didn't show any reluctance.

When the hunting was over, Jiaqing went to Qianlong to answer.

When he entered, He Shen was also there, and when he saw Jiaqing coming in, He Shen didn't even get up.

Jiaqing sat in front of Qianlong, and now Qianlong had some difficulty in speaking, so he muttered a few words, and Heshen passed the message on his behalf.

Jiaqing sat there, listening to a minister's message, not to mention how aggrieved he was, and his face was not good, but Jiaqing's face was calm, and there was no trace of dissatisfaction.

A gleam of satisfaction flashed in He Shen's eyes. The emperor looked dumbfounded, and he was indeed easy to manipulate.

After Jiaqing listened to Qianlong's instructions, he got up and called Qianlong back.

Qianlong nodded slowly, and muttered a few more words. With a flash of light in He Shen's eyes, he turned his head and said to Jiaqing, "Your Majesty, the Emperor wants to see Eldest Brother."

Jiaqing was not too surprised, Qianlong was very close to Mianyi and was more satisfied with Mianyi than himself, so he nodded and called someone in to give instructions, and soon the person went out and called Mianyi in.

Mian Yi just changed out of her riding attire, and was about to take her prey back to Er Niang, when she heard the summons from the emperor and the emperor, she hurried to the big tent.

When I entered, I saw the Supreme Emperor, the Emperor, and the two emperors, He Shen, sitting in a triangle, and the atmosphere was a little tense.

He stepped forward and bowed to Qianlong and Jiaqing. Qianlong's eyes were full of satisfaction, and Jiaqing's expression softened for a moment.

When Wuli got up, someone brought a stool over and asked Mianyi to sit down.

Qianlong looked at Mianyi, muttered a few words, and He Shen translated with a smile: "The emperor asked you how many prey you hunted today?"

Mian Yi described all the prey she had hunted, and then said with a smile: "One of the deer is very majestic, and it is about to be dedicated to Huang Mafa."

Qianlong nodded with a smile, and muttered a few more words.

He Shen continued to translate: "The emperor praises you for your bravery."

Mian Yi hastily stood up and thanked her.

After talking about this, and finally came to the main topic, Qianlong looked at Mianyi, and said a long paragraph, Mianyi vaguely heard the word "children", and before she had time to respond, He Shen translated: "The emperor said, you are now It's too old, and it's time to consider the issue of heirs, not to be ignored."

Mian Yi's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Qianlong, only to see that he had a kind face, and He Shen, who was sitting beside Qianlong, also had a gentle face.
