The two didn't wake up until the afternoon, and Geng Yi woke up once in the middle, feeling pushed.
She opened her eyes in a daze and found that it was Hong Zhou, touching her cheek with her small hand, her small face was full of doubts.
Maybe it's strange why Geng Yi is still asleep in broad daylight.
Geng Yi stretched out his hand and touched Hongzhou's back comfortingly, and whispered: "It's okay, I'll sleep for a while."
Hong Zhou was carried away by Hu Nanny, and before he insisted on coming to see Geng Yi, the nanny couldn't stop him, so he had to tell Hu Nanny who was guarding the door.
Nanny Hu carefully carried Hongzhou in, almost frightening Su Peisheng.
He winks desperately and asks Madam Hu to take Hong Zhou out.
Nanny Hu waved to Su Peisheng, expressing that Hongzhou never cried and was a little worried when he woke up and didn't see Geng Yi, and he had to let the little elder brother take a look at him to be relieved.
Sure enough, Hongzhou's little hand touched Geng Yi, seeing that she opened her eyes and moved, and even said a few words of comfort to himself, and then she was relieved to be hugged and left by Madam Hu.
Su Peisheng watched in surprise, this little elder brother is really quiet.
To change to Hongshi and Hongli, they must have started crying at this time and woke up the fourth elder brother.
The fourth elder brother slept very deeply, maybe it was because he was happy to drink too much, or maybe he didn't sleep last night.
On the way, Nanny Hu brought Hong Zhou in, and the always vigilant fourth elder brother was not woken up.
When he woke up and looked at the sky, it was already afternoon.
It was quiet outside, the fourth elder brother looked at Geng Yi who was still sleeping beside him, and slowly got up without waking her up.
After going out, he washed his face and asked, "Is there no one from the palace?"
Su Peisheng had asked the little eunuch to stand guard at the gate of the garden. He would report letters from time to time, but no one came.
The fourth elder brother also found it strange that people came to the palace not long after, but it was not the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother, but Lao Li.
He came directly from the palace gate on a fast horse. After dismounting from his horse, he rushed over to report: "Fourth elder brother, the empress dowager is seriously ill. Fourteenth elder brother asked his subordinates to come and invite you into the palace."
It is estimated that the palace will send someone over soon, but not as fast as Lao Li.
The fourteenth elder brother deliberately asked Lao Li to come first, because he was afraid that the messenger in the palace would not understand, or he was too afraid to say it, so it would be better to let Lao Li come over and talk to the fourth elder brother first, so as not to be confused.
The fourth elder brother changed his body and immediately walked out with Lao Li, asking, "Tell me, didn't the thirteenth brother and the fourteenth brother bring Fujin to visit the queen mother and Huang Ama today, what happened?" gone?"
Lao Li replied as he walked: "The empress dowager was very energetic in the morning, and the imperial doctor was watching by her side. The morning was very smooth. The empress dowager also rewarded two Fujin things, and reminded the two elder brothers to go with them in the future. Fujin and Hemei."
"The two elder brothers took Fujin to visit the ladies, and then went to have lunch with the concubine Defei. I heard that the empress dowager said that she was a little tired, so she lay down to rest after not much use for lunch."
"Because the Empress Dowager had the habit of taking a nap before, the elder brothers didn't think much about it. They planned to wait for the Empress Dowager to wake up and go to pay her respects, and then go out of the palace to find the fourth elder brother."
However, my brothers waited for a long time and didn't see the empress dowager waking up, and Wu Fujin hurriedly sent someone to invite the imperial physician.
The empress dowager suddenly fell into a coma, which frightened Wu Fujin.
After taking the pulse carefully, the imperial doctor said that the empress dowager had reached her age, and her internal organs began to weaken. She could only hang herself with ginseng soup, and she didn't know how long she could last.
When the empress dowager woke up and heard the imperial physician's words, she didn't have a sad look on her face, but rather relaxed.
After all, although she was not favored when she was young, the Empress Dowager took care of her in the harem, and the emperor respected and filially treated her very much. The next few decades lived comfortably and easily, but it was a pity that she couldn't go back to see her hometown.
But after his death, he may be buried in the place where he was born, so there is nothing to regret.
Wu Fujin was very sad, these years she served by the empress dowager's side, when the empress dowager was taken care of by her own grandmother.
The two had a very happy conversation. They got along very well these years, and their relationship was deep.
When the empress dowager was ill last year, Wu Fujin packed up his things and went directly to the palace to take care of the empress dowager, staying by the bed day and night.
When the empress dowager woke up occasionally, she would always see Wu Fujin first.
Seeing Wu Fujin look haggard and thinner, the Empress Dowager felt very distressed.
The fifth elder brother also advised Wu Fujin that the two of them should take turns to take care of him. After all, Wu Fujin's thin appearance was really frightening, and he became so thin all of a sudden. He was afraid that the empress dowager would really pass away one day, and Wu Fujin would have to support him too. Can't go down.
Over the years, Brother Wu's feelings towards Wu Fujin have also been very complicated. From being a little annoyed at the beginning, to later annoyed against her, and seeing Wu Fujin live more comfortably than before, he was also unhappy.
Now seeing Wu Fujin serving the Empress Dowager with all his heart and soul, Fifth Elder Brother was moved and sad, and also felt a little bit of pity.
He was really worried about Wu Fujin and tried to persuade him again and again, but it was a pity that Wu Fujin didn't listen at all.
Wu Fujin said: "I'm going to leave here and I won't be able to sleep when I go back. It's better to stay here all the time, and I can still sleep for a while. And it's more convenient for me to stay here to take care of the Empress Dowager. You can come here during the day."
She didn't stop the fifth elder brother from fulfilling his filial piety. It is true that the fifth elder brother is not as comfortable as Wu Fujin in taking care of the empress dowager.
It's okay during the day, but not at night.
So fifth elder brother came to help during the day, persuading Wu Fujin to close his eyes for a while.
Wu Fujin silently said: The Empress Dowager will definitely get better.
At that time, the imperial doctor said that it was dangerous, but the empress dowager still survived the Spring Festival and the spring, and even waited until the wedding of the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother, and brought the Fujins to pay homage to the empress dowager.
Wu Fujin thought that although the empress dowager was in danger before, she would gradually get better after getting through it, and she might live a long life.
Especially after the Empress Dowager had met the Thirteenth Fujin and the Fourteenth Fujin before, she went back and kept smiling and boasting to Wu Fujin: "One is gentle and the other is heroic. They are both good boys. The emperor gave Xiao San and Xiao Shi The daughter-in-law who picks four is the best."
She babbled and praised a few times, she was as excited as a child, and Wu Fujin laughed beside her, seeing the empress dowager so happy, she was also happy in her heart.
As usual, after the meal, the empress dowager would take a nap to feel better.
This time she talked for a long time before going to take a nap, and Wu Fujin stayed by the bed as usual.
When the empress dowager woke up normally, she was quiet and never woke up.
Wu Fujin thought that the Empress Dowager was exhausted in the morning, and it would be okay to sleep a little longer.
However, she waited and waited until the empress dowager woke up, so she panicked, and hurriedly sent for the imperial physician.
The empress dowager was only awake for a while before falling asleep again. When she woke up again, she still couldn't tell the time. She saw the fifth elder brother sitting in front of the couch and turned her head to look at the other side. She took advantage of the situation and saw five Fujin was lying on his bed, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and he didn't seem to be sleeping very soundly.
She whispered: "What are you doing stupidly, quickly cover Rong Ji with a blanket."
The fifth elder brother was taken aback, and when he heard the empress dowager's words, he smiled wryly and said, "Huang Mama, my grandson did this yesterday, but woke Rong Ji up. It's not easy for her to fall asleep, so that's the only way to go."
His voice was also kept very low, for fear of waking Wu Fujin up.
The empress dowager lightly patted the back of the fifth elder brother's hand, and sighed: "I have watched you all these years, and you are all good boys, but you are too stubborn. You don't want to quit, and she doesn't want to. It's deadlocked."
She saw the uncomfortable expression of the fifth elder brother and said: "Now it seems that you still have Rong Ji in your heart. How did you make things come to this point? You have to treat Rong Ji better in the future and live a good life together." .”
The empress dowager's speech was not as weak as before, and the fifth prince's heart skipped a beat: "Mama Huang..."
Obviously the empress dowager also knew it well, her eyes were bright and she was relieved: "Why panic, when the time comes, I should go back to the place I should go. After all, there is such a moment, and I am lucky to live such a long life."
"It's just you and Rongji who I can't let go of the most."
The empress dowager signaled her confidant to invite the emperor to come over, while being supported by the fifth elder brother to sit up.
Wu Fujin also woke up with a start, rushed to the couch, saw that the Empress Dowager's complexion was better than before, it could even be said that her face was flushed, and she suddenly turned pale with shock: "The Empress Dowager..."
Her eyes were red and she was about to shed tears. The empress dowager said helplessly: "Don't cry, don't cry your eyes out. It was agreed before that I smiled when I left, and Rong Ji had to smile to see me off." yes."
At that time, Wu Fujin just reluctantly agreed, being the empress dowager was a joke, but now that the time has really come, how can he laugh?
But she also knew that the empress dowager didn't want to see herself cry, so she tried her best to hold back the tears, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes and not really crying.
The Empress Dowager laughed, touched Wu Fujin's head and said, "Good boy."
She held Wu Fujin's hand and put it in Wu's elder brother's palm: "In the future, you can live a good life, and I can rest assured. If Xiao Wu bullies you, Rong Ji can just scold you back. If Xiao Wu dares to treat you badly, I will go He reprimanded him in his dream."
Wu Fujin lowered her head and said nothing, Fifth Elder Brother held her hand and said, "Don't worry, Mama Huang, I will take good care of Rong Ji."
The empress dowager nodded, and the emperor over there had already rushed over.
The fifth elder brother had no choice but to take Wu Fujin out, and the emperor turned pale when he saw the empress dowager.
Even though he had vaguely guessed it before coming, he still couldn't believe it when he saw it.
The empress dowager looked at the emperor in front of the couch and said with a smile: "I have lived a very good life in these years, and I have a long life. Although I am not a mother and son with the emperor, the emperor has always treated me with respect and filial piety like a mother-in-law. I am very grateful. "
She looked out the window and said softly: "I only have one thought, I hope I can be buried in the place where I was born and raised, is that okay?"
I can't go back during my lifetime, I only hope to return to the place where I was born after death.
Naturally, the emperor had nothing to say, so he lowered his head and promised, "Don't worry, Empress, I... promise you."
The empress dowager understood that this was not in compliance with the rules, but the emperor still complied with her willful request, and said kindly, "Your majesty, you should also take care of yourself, don't be too sad. My long life can be regarded as joy and mourning."
She didn't stay with the emperor for too long, and barely finished speaking with the emperor, the empress dowager lost all strength.
After the emperor left, the empress dowager couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep again in a drowsy state.
It's just that after sleeping, the empress dowager never got up again.
The empress dowager died of illness, and the death knell rang again and again, as if it was hitting people's hearts.
When the fourth elder brother rushed over, the empress dowager happened to be talking to the emperor, so he only waited outside for a while.
Then the Empress Dowager quickly fell asleep again, unable to see anyone at all.
Hearing the bell, the fourth elder brother knew that he was late and could not see the empress dowager for the last time.
Brother Jiu rushed over and couldn't help frowning when he heard the bell. Although he had guessed before, he didn't expect it to come so soon.
It's just that the empress dowager has been sick all the time, and now she has passed away after returning to the light and confessing, so there is no regret.
He sighed, although the Empress Dowager was not a real grandmother, she treated them very well.
Every time I went to pay my respects when I was young, the Empress Dowager always smiled.
Even though many elder brothers could not speak or listen to Mongolian well at that time, and the empress dowager needed a nanny to translate, she still brought them a lot of delicious snacks.
Brother Jiu was very impressed, that is, the empress dowager would touch the little brother's head with a kind and gentle smile.
Geng Yi learned that the empress dowager passed away in a coma after talking to the fifth elder brother, Wu Fujin, and the emperor. He must have confessed, and he couldn't help but sigh.
She remembered that she had met the empress dowager before, she was a kind and gentle old lady.
Now that the empress dowager has a long life, Geng Yi will still feel sad when a familiar person leaves.
Birth, old age, sickness and death cannot be stopped, no matter how skilled the medical skills are, there is no way but to make the deceased live a more comfortable and relaxed life before leaving.
The empress dowager's final meaning was to keep everything simple, and what she told the emperor was that she was unwilling to be extravagant.
In addition to the adult elder brother going to the palace to worship, she also confessed that Fujin and the side Fujin were not allowed to take the children, lest the children have clean eyes and see something they shouldn't see, and it would be bad to be scared.
Honghui was also left in the mansion, but couldn't follow him into the palace with tears in his eyes.
Geng Yi followed the fourth elder brother, and together with Si Fujin, Li Fangfujin, and Niu Gulu Gege, entered the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager.
From a distance, she saw the fifth elder brother suddenly hugged the fainted person beside him and shouted in panic, "Where is the imperial doctor, please come here quickly."
The imperial doctor had been waiting in the side hall for a long time, and rushed out as soon as he heard the fifth elder brother's cry, and felt the pulse of the person in the fifth elder brother's arms.
It was only then that Geng Yi realized that the fifth elder brother was holding Wu Fujin in his arms, and he couldn't recognize it for a while.
Because Wu Fujin was too thin, his face was pale, his chin was pointed, his eyes were still full of blue shadows, and he didn't know how long he hadn't slept.
The imperial doctor frowned after feeling the pulse and said: "Wu Fujin didn't touch any water, didn't eat anything, and probably didn't sleep well at night, that's why he fainted from weakness."
He asked the fifth elder brother to help Wu Fu to the side, and asked the medicine boy to decoct the medicine.
Geng Yi listened carefully and found that most of them were medicinal materials for nourishing blood and tonifying deficiency.
But if Wu Fujin didn't take good care of his body like this, and always refused to eat or drink, even the gods of Da Luo couldn't save him, let alone the imperial doctor, and he would be helpless.
The fifth elder brother asked two nuns to help place Wu Fujin in the back hall. Hearing that the fourth elder brother was coming with his family, he rushed out to welcome him.
The fourth elder brother first brought the female relatives to worship together, and then retreated.
The elder brothers all went up to pay respects with silent faces, and they didn't talk much to each other, each of them felt very sad.
Seeing that the fifth elder brother came out in a hurry, the fourth elder brother took him to a corner and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with the fifth younger brother?"
The fifth elder brother smiled bitterly and said: "Rong Ji and Huang Mama have the deepest relationship. As soon as Huang Mama left, she couldn't bear it and passed out. She kept crying when she woke up and couldn't eat anything. I invited her mother-in-law over , persuaded her to eat two mouthfuls and vomited again, and couldn’t sleep at night. Last night, she struggled to keep vigil. In the end, if Huang Ama didn’t see Rong Ji’s face so ugly, she asked her to go back to rest, maybe she was still guarding in front of the coffin. Last night."
He also had a headache, Wu Fujin was so sad that he couldn't eat anything, and insisted on guarding the empress dowager's spirit.
The fourth elder brother patted the fifth elder brother on the shoulder, knowing his difficulty.
The fifth elder brother was raised beside the empress dowager since he was a child, and he has a very deep affection for the empress dowager.
Wu Fujin served the empress dowager for several years and talked about everything, so it was the same.
Now that the empress dowager is gone, the fifth elder brother is sad, and he has to cheer up to take care of Wu Fujin, for fear that she will make him sick, and the fifth elder brother will only be more sad.
The fourth elder brother didn't know what to do, so the fifth elder brother could only ask his sisters-in-law to persuade Wu Fujin.
Several Fujins have gone to see Wu Fujin, and it hurts to see her face so pale.
Wu Fujin only fainted for a while before waking up. Seeing a few sisters-in-law looking at him very worriedly, the circles of his eyes suddenly turned red.
Da Fujin quickly helped him up and said: "Don't cry, the beautiful eyes of the fifth sibling are swollen from crying, quickly ask the maid to twist a cold handkerchief to apply."
San Fujin hurriedly took a pillow and stuffed it on Wu Fujin's back, took the cold handkerchief from the palace maid, and gently put it on the corners of Wu Fujin's eyes: "The fifth brother and sister suddenly fell down, and the fifth younger brother was so frightened that his face was as white as paper." The same. The empress dowager is gone, and the fifth younger brother suffers as much as the fifth younger sibling."
Si Fujin took the soup from the eunuch and felt that the bottom of the bowl was not too hot, so he handed it over: "The fifth sibling should drink the soup first, and take care of himself. If the queen mother is still here, seeing the fifth sibling like this I don't know how much it hurts."
Wu Fujin's eye circles became even redder, but he still obediently finished the soup.
Shi Fujin handed over a candied fruit and stuffed it into Wu Fujin's mouth, and she ate it with a mouth full of sweetness.
Ten Fujin's Manchu language is much better than before: "This candied fruit is coated with a layer of sugar, which makes it a bit sweeter. My mother-in-law said that when you feel bad, you should eat more sweets. After all, there is nothing you can't bear." Kan. If you really can't make it through, then eat something sweeter."
Seeing Wu Fujin finish eating slowly, Shi Fujin stuffed another one.
Wu Fujin felt the sweet taste in his mouth, and the dizzy feeling that his eyes went dark and he was in a trance slowly dissipated.
It was as if she was ruining her body without eating or drinking, thinking that she could leave with the empress dowager in this way.
Now that he only ate two candied fruit and drank a bowl of decoction, Wu Fujin felt his body began to recover a little bit, with strength in his body, as if he had come back to life.
She thought about making herself half dead, maybe she could go with the empress dowager.
If this is the case, the Empress Dowager Quanxia knows, and I am afraid she will scold herself.
Don't look at the empress dowager who has a good temper and always smiles. When she is angry, she can curse people in Mongolian.
Wu Fujin lowered his head, Dou Da's tears fell down.
Da Fujin sighed softly, got up and asked the other sisters-in-law to go out together, giving Wu Fujin a chance to be alone and quiet, and also allowed her to cry freely and pour out the depression accumulated in her heart.
Wu Fujin wailed for a long time until his voice became hoarse, but when he looked up, he saw Fifth Elder Brother standing by his side, with red eyes and tear stains on his cheeks, obviously crying with her.
She hesitated for a while, and held Fifth Prince's hand.
Fifth elder brother lowered his head and rested his forehead on Wu Fujin's shoulder.
The two were so close for the first time in many years, but suddenly they let nature take its course.
The twelfth elder brother didn't expect that the Ministry of Internal Affairs finally finished the wedding of the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother. Before he took a breather, the empress dowager passed away, and he had to start busy with the empress dowager's affairs.
The empress dowager's mausoleum has already been built, and it is almost finished, it is in Xiaodong Mausoleum.
Because the empress dowager had mentioned before that she did not want to be buried with the late emperor, the emperor sent someone to build a separate mausoleum for the empress.
This is also the first queen's mausoleum built separately without being buried with the emperor.
However, before the empress dowager died, she wanted to be buried in the place where she was born, which made the emperor very distressed, and it was difficult to give up the empress mausoleum that had been built, so he had to choose a compromise method.
The Empress Dowager was still buried in the Xiaodong Mausoleum, and the clothes and jewelry she loved during her lifetime were sent back to the place where she was born in the Mongolian tribe. Finding a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to set up a clothes tomb is all the empress dowager's thoughts.
The emperor stood in front of the map in the Imperial Study Room, and Li Dequan stood guard at the door with his head bowed.
The emperor has been staring at the map like this all night without closing his eyes. It can be said that the emperor has never rested since he met the empress dowager.
First, I asked the twelfth elder brother to inquire about the empress dowager's memorial arrangement, and then stopped the morning court, urging the Xiaodong Tomb to be completed as soon as possible, and planned to personally choose the location for the empress dowager's tomb. It can be said that the emperor was non-stop, and he couldn't rest at all. .
Li Dequan felt that the emperor did not want to rest, but did not want to rest.
The empress dowager had no children, and the first emperor passed away early. Except for the empress dowager, the empress dowager was the relative who accompanied the emperor for the longest time, and it was better than a mother and son.
The sudden death of the empress dowager made the emperor so sad that he could not close his eyes for a long time, as if he might think of the empress dowager when he closed his eyes.
The emperor finally chose three places, drew circles with his fingertips, and asked people to record them.
Send people to investigate one or two times, to see where the most suitable place is, and circle it.
Half a month later, Xiaodong Mausoleum was officially completed, and the empress dowager's ice coffin was delivered from the palace.
The fifth elder brother and Wu Fujin asked to help the spirit, and the emperor nodded in agreement.
The emperor watched the spirit-supporting team leave the palace gate in a mighty way, and suddenly fell down in darkness.
Li Dequan was so frightened that he rushed over to support the emperor, and shouted: "Come here, please ask the imperial physician."
The head of the hospital rushed over with almost all the imperial physicians, and the emperor had been carefully sent back to the Qianqing Palace by the guards.
The head of the hospital frowned after taking his pulse. The emperor obviously hadn't rested for a long time after being overjoyed and sad. Now that he was old and his body couldn't bear it, he suddenly fainted.
The conclusions of the other imperial physicians after taking the pulse were similar to those of the head of the hospital. The emperor was so depressed that he forcibly held on for half a month to keep the coffin, but his body couldn't bear it before he fell down.
The concubine and elder brothers were extremely worried and stood outside waiting for the emperor to wake up.
After acupuncture and moxibustion at the head of the hospital, the emperor finally woke up slowly, watching the imperial physicians in the room gradually waking up.
He lightly raised his hand, indicating that the people waiting outside could leave.
Only a few important ministers and the fourth elder brother were called in, and the emperor ordered: "I am temporarily unable to manage the affairs of the court. I will not open the court in the morning. The papers sent will be reviewed by the fourth elder brother and several important ministers in turn. If the decision cannot be made, the fourth elder is the one who decides." gone."
Several important ministers could hear that the emperor was planning to delegate power to the fourth elder brother, so they couldn't help but look at each other.
The fourth elder brother looked at the emperor worriedly: "Ama Huang, my son..."
The emperor was a little tired, so he glanced at him and said, "The fourth brother handled it well before, so there won't be any problems. If you really can't handle it, then come and ask me."
He was so tired that he couldn't open his eyes. The meaning of the head of the hospital was that the emperor couldn't be tired now, so he had to take care of himself and rest.
The kitchen sent a good rice porridge, the emperor reluctantly took a few mouthfuls, drank the decoction and fell into a deep sleep.
After the fourth elder brother went out, several important officials saluted him, and he pondered: "Then deal with the papers in the side hall, deal with the urgent ones first, and put aside the unimportant ones for the time being."
After all, due to the death of the empress dowager during this period, the emperor had no intention of dealing with the notes, which had piled up like a mountain.
The fourth elder brother was a little worried about the emperor. If he was dealing with Zhezi in the side hall, he would go over to take a look at it from time to time before he could feel relieved.
Naturally, several important ministers had no objection, and they prioritized the documents in the side hall and began to read them.
It took a long time to look at it. On the way, the imperial dining room brought vegetarian dishes, and they ate a few mouthfuls indiscriminately and continued to read the booklet.
After the meal, the fourth elder brother went to the next door to have a look. The emperor was still in a deep sleep. What Li Dequan meant was that he didn't wake up halfway.
The head of the hospital said that the decoction contained soothing herbs, and the most important thing for the emperor now is to sleep more to rest.
The fourth elder brother took a look, then went to the next door to continue to read the booklets, until the palace gate was about to be locked, then he invited some important officials back, but he planned to stay in the palace.
He stayed, and the few ministers who had the nerve to leave all said that they should deal with it as soon as possible.
The fourth elder brother nodded with a smile, and sent someone to the minister's house to talk about it, so as not to worry their family members, and also sent someone to talk to Si Fujin and the others.
Because the empress dowager died suddenly, the fourth elder brother sent Su Peisheng to the Old Summer Palace that night, and asked them to pack up and move back to Prince Yong's mansion overnight.
Geng Yi didn't expect to return to the capital for such a reason, so he hurriedly packed up and moved back to Prince Yong's mansion in a hurry.
The packed cages and boxes didn't look like many, but they almost filled the whole yard.
Living in Yuanmingyuan was too spacious, and Geng Yi was not used to coming back suddenly.
Not to mention her, even Hong Zhou was not used to it.
He wandered around the yard, and came back to where he was in a blink of an eye. He was still a little confused, and found that his room was much smaller.
However, the child's adaptability is also quite good, and he got used to it within two days. I guess he still thinks that if the room is small, it's good that he doesn't have to walk so many steps.
The fourth elder brother was diligently reading the booklets in the palace and never came back.
Intermittent news came from the palace. For example, the emperor woke up after sleeping for a whole day and night. After eating something, his energy was much better, and he was able to discuss political affairs with the fourth elder brother.
For example, white flags are hung inside and outside the palace, the common people suspend marriage, vegetarian and filial piety, etc.
The same is true in Prince Yong's Mansion, the kitchen has been cleared of all meat dishes, and only vegetarian dishes can be eaten every day.
But the children are growing up, and there are no outsiders in the mansion, Huai Ke and a few little brothers can eat minced meat and eggs in private, and other people don't have this treatment.
Geng Yi actually adapted well to eating vegetarian dishes, after all, Chef Ma can make various vegetarian dishes.
Even if the empress dowager dies, they have to observe filial piety for one year, and they have to be vegetarians for one year.
You can't go out to play at will, let alone have fun at home, and you can't even have the sound of silk and bamboo.
Hongzhou's favorite models were all put away, his little face was full of confusion, and Geng Yi could only say it over and over again.
The child is too young to understand the word filial piety, but he also understands that he cannot play with models for the time being.
The bright clothes, shoes and jewelry have all been replaced, and they can only wear plain colors.
He couldn't even put on makeup, Geng Yi only put on some snow jade cream after washing his face, and didn't need to put on the rest, and he didn't wear much jewelry.Anyway, no one will come to the house now, and they can't go out as guests, and they don't see anyone, so why bother!
Before the fourth brother had to watch and cry in the palace, and had to help the emperor deal with the papers, Geng Yi was worried that he, a workaholic, would be too busy to eat or drink.
Si Fujin was also worried, but unfortunately they couldn't enter the palace at will now.
Now I can only be a vegetarian, and I can't even deliver soup. At most, Su Peisheng can ask the fourth elder brother when he comes back to pick up his clothes.
Su Peisheng only said that the fourth elder brother was fine in everything, but he was a little tired.
There are ginseng and tea served in the palace, and the fourth elder brother and several ministers almost eat and sleep in the side hall.
When you get tired from reading the book, you will doze off for a while, wake up and continue reading, and eat something in the middle.
The minister was exhausted, and so was the fourth elder brother.
Anyway, within half a month, I finally finished reading most of the papers, the urgent ones have been sent out, and the ones that can't be dealt with have been resolved after discussing with the emperor.
Although there are replacement clothes, you can wipe your body but you can't take a bath, let alone a few ministers, the fourth elder brother can't stand it.
After disposing of the last notebook, the fourth elder brother stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead. Some courtiers wrote in a flashy manner, and they were all notebooks asking for greetings. They were useless, but they had to read them.
After all, you can see some clues in these invitations to An Zhezi, but you have to look carefully.
The fourth elder brother raised his head and asked several ministers to go out of the palace to go back to rest. He also got up and planned to tell the emperor to go out of the palace to go back to rest.
Su Peisheng came in hurriedly at this time, and whispered in his ear: "Si Fujin hastily asked someone to call the imperial physician to the house, and it might be wrong to say that it is brother Honghui."
The fourth prince's eyes widened when he heard this, he took a deep breath and hurried to the next door to pay his respects to the emperor, his expression returned to normal, he only said that Zhezi had been dealt with, and he went back to Prince Yong's mansion to rest for the time being.
The emperor was drinking ginseng soup, and nodded after hearing this: "Your fourth is working hard, please come back after a few days of rest."
He was a little drowsy after drinking the soup. The fourth elder brother helped the emperor to lie down again. After seeing the emperor closed his eyes and fell asleep, he retreated lightly, and his pace kept accelerating. Su Peisheng almost had to run to catch up. superior.
The fourth elder brother asked in a low voice: "Has the imperial doctor been invited?"
Su Peisheng also lowered his voice and said, "Yes, the carriage has just left the palace."
Geng Yi didn't expect that he was still doing nothing in the mansion today, so he asked a few elder brothers to meet and talk.
Honghui doesn't have to go to class now, he doesn't have homework, and he still reads and writes big characters every day, but he has more free time, so he came over to play with his younger brothers today.
Geng Yi raised his head to see Hong Hui coming in and saluted with a smile, the red light appeared rarely again, falling from the top of Hong Hui's head like flowing water, covering his whole body.
The red light appeared and disappeared quickly, but the color was much redder than usual.
Geng Yi immediately stared at Hong Hui's small face carefully, his cheeks were slightly red.
Because of the hot weather, he came all the way here, and it would not be surprising if his cheeks were tanned. However, there is no sun outside today, and Honghui's forehead is not sweaty, which proves that his body is not hot, but his face is red, especially the left cheek. The right cheek is much redder.
The left cheek represents the liver meridian, and the right cheek is the lung meridian.
Honghui's gaze was not as agile as usual, and slightly straightened, but he couldn't detect it unless he looked carefully.
The eyes also belong to the liver meridian, which proves that his liver meridian is damaged, which is also a sign that the liver meridian is suffering from evil winds entering the body.
Geng Yi was worried that he had read it wrong. Seeing Honghui came in and sat down, he frowned slightly while drinking hot tea, and asked the servant girl to change to cold tea, telling Si Fujin that it felt a little hot.
However, Honghui still didn't sweat. It stands to reason that if it is hot from the outside, he will naturally sweat after drinking water.
After waiting for a full quarter of an hour, Honghui's forehead was still smooth without any sweat.
Geng Yi's gaze was very dark, even though the red light appeared, but there was no reminder, she planned to see it clearly before speaking.
Sifujin was very keen, and noticed that Geng Yi's gaze had been following Honghui.
Geng Yi had discovered so many things before, Si Fujin couldn't help but jump in his heart.
She made an excuse to go inside to talk about the sale of pear paste candy. Honghui knew that Sifujin and Geng Yi worked together to do this, so he didn't think much about it, let alone listen to it.
After entering, Si Fujin asked in a low voice: "My sister has been staring at Honghui just now, is there something wrong?"
Geng Yi looked at Shangsi Fujin's worried expression, and said after deliberation: "I don't know for certain, I just think that Honghui may have liver evil entering his body."
Hearing these words, Si Fujin's face turned pale, and his voice was lowered: "Then Honghui..."
Geng Yi quickly replied: "Sister, don't panic, first send someone to the palace to invite the imperial physician over."
When liver evil enters the body, people are prone to convulsions.
The liver meridian was at its weakest at noon, and Geng Yi guessed that Honghui would probably have convulsions at noon, so it would be better to call the imperial physician over earlier.
Without saying a word, Si Fujin asked someone to take a post and go to the palace to invite the imperial physician. Honghui is her heart and soul, and nothing can happen to her.
Geng Yi saw that Si Fujin was so frightened that everyone started to tremble, and he hurriedly comforted him: "Sister, don't worry, the imperial doctor came earlier, Honghui will be fine."
Si Fujin nodded, she took a few deep breaths in the mirror, patted her cheeks with her hands to show some rosiness, and then went out as if nothing had happened.
Hearing that Honghui will not be up until noon, Sifujin reluctantly puts his mind down a little, and only hopes that the imperial physician will come over as soon as possible.
The groom of Prince Yong's Mansion swung his whip wildly, and the carriage ran so fast that the imperial doctor almost fainted, and almost failed to stand still when he got off the carriage.
Before the imperial doctor could stand still, two tall guards helped him in.
It is said to be supported, but it is basically supported.
The imperial doctor had just entered the second gate and was put down by the guards, but the fourth elder brother had rushed back on the back, got off his horse and strode in.
The fourth elder brother went in and saw Hong Hui who was still sitting in the seat, with surprise and doubt in his eyes.
But he believed that Sifujin would not joke about this kind of thing, so he only asked the imperial physician to feel Honghui's pulse.
Before the imperial doctor came, he thought Honghui was in an emergency, and the carriage drove all the way. After entering, Honghui sat down, and he was confused: that's it?
It's just that the imperial physician restrained his expression and hurried forward to feel the pulse.
Honghui's face suddenly changed, and he fell backwards.
The fourth elder brother quickly caught Hong Hui, and found that he was twitching non-stop in his arms, and his expression changed immediately.
The imperial physician quickly stretched out his hand to take Honghui's pulse, and said with a surprised expression: "The pulse condition is tight, the spleen is deficient and the liver is full of fire, and it is necessary to relieve the heart, liver and kidney."
He quickly wrote down the prescription, and Su Peisheng trotted all the way for someone to grab the medicine, and then he decocted it himself.
Honghui convulsed more and more in the arms of the fourth elder brother, and the imperial physician was helpless.
He smoked too hard, it would be difficult to align the acupoints with silver needles, and it would be ineffective if the acupuncture was wrong, so Si Age and Si Fujin had to hold Hong Hui down.
Then someone put a veil in Hong Hui's mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue.
Geng Yi looked at Hong Hui's heartache, but the imperial physician was waiting to deliver the soup, helpless, so she couldn't hold back anymore, and said to the fourth elder brother: "Master, let me try it, so that Hong Hui can feel better."
The imperial physician hurriedly asked: "I don't know what Fang Fujin plans to do?"
Geng Yi quickly explained: "There are three meridians on the inner thigh, the Liver Meridian, the Kidney Meridian and the Spleen Meridian. Pushing on the Liver Meridian can make Honghui's convulsions a little better."
The imperial physician nodded, and said to the fourth elder brother: "It is indeed a way to alleviate it."
He wanted to say that the effect might not be too great, so he was useless just now.
Fourth elder brother
She opened her eyes in a daze and found that it was Hong Zhou, touching her cheek with her small hand, her small face was full of doubts.
Maybe it's strange why Geng Yi is still asleep in broad daylight.
Geng Yi stretched out his hand and touched Hongzhou's back comfortingly, and whispered: "It's okay, I'll sleep for a while."
Hong Zhou was carried away by Hu Nanny, and before he insisted on coming to see Geng Yi, the nanny couldn't stop him, so he had to tell Hu Nanny who was guarding the door.
Nanny Hu carefully carried Hongzhou in, almost frightening Su Peisheng.
He winks desperately and asks Madam Hu to take Hong Zhou out.
Nanny Hu waved to Su Peisheng, expressing that Hongzhou never cried and was a little worried when he woke up and didn't see Geng Yi, and he had to let the little elder brother take a look at him to be relieved.
Sure enough, Hongzhou's little hand touched Geng Yi, seeing that she opened her eyes and moved, and even said a few words of comfort to himself, and then she was relieved to be hugged and left by Madam Hu.
Su Peisheng watched in surprise, this little elder brother is really quiet.
To change to Hongshi and Hongli, they must have started crying at this time and woke up the fourth elder brother.
The fourth elder brother slept very deeply, maybe it was because he was happy to drink too much, or maybe he didn't sleep last night.
On the way, Nanny Hu brought Hong Zhou in, and the always vigilant fourth elder brother was not woken up.
When he woke up and looked at the sky, it was already afternoon.
It was quiet outside, the fourth elder brother looked at Geng Yi who was still sleeping beside him, and slowly got up without waking her up.
After going out, he washed his face and asked, "Is there no one from the palace?"
Su Peisheng had asked the little eunuch to stand guard at the gate of the garden. He would report letters from time to time, but no one came.
The fourth elder brother also found it strange that people came to the palace not long after, but it was not the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother, but Lao Li.
He came directly from the palace gate on a fast horse. After dismounting from his horse, he rushed over to report: "Fourth elder brother, the empress dowager is seriously ill. Fourteenth elder brother asked his subordinates to come and invite you into the palace."
It is estimated that the palace will send someone over soon, but not as fast as Lao Li.
The fourteenth elder brother deliberately asked Lao Li to come first, because he was afraid that the messenger in the palace would not understand, or he was too afraid to say it, so it would be better to let Lao Li come over and talk to the fourth elder brother first, so as not to be confused.
The fourth elder brother changed his body and immediately walked out with Lao Li, asking, "Tell me, didn't the thirteenth brother and the fourteenth brother bring Fujin to visit the queen mother and Huang Ama today, what happened?" gone?"
Lao Li replied as he walked: "The empress dowager was very energetic in the morning, and the imperial doctor was watching by her side. The morning was very smooth. The empress dowager also rewarded two Fujin things, and reminded the two elder brothers to go with them in the future. Fujin and Hemei."
"The two elder brothers took Fujin to visit the ladies, and then went to have lunch with the concubine Defei. I heard that the empress dowager said that she was a little tired, so she lay down to rest after not much use for lunch."
"Because the Empress Dowager had the habit of taking a nap before, the elder brothers didn't think much about it. They planned to wait for the Empress Dowager to wake up and go to pay her respects, and then go out of the palace to find the fourth elder brother."
However, my brothers waited for a long time and didn't see the empress dowager waking up, and Wu Fujin hurriedly sent someone to invite the imperial physician.
The empress dowager suddenly fell into a coma, which frightened Wu Fujin.
After taking the pulse carefully, the imperial doctor said that the empress dowager had reached her age, and her internal organs began to weaken. She could only hang herself with ginseng soup, and she didn't know how long she could last.
When the empress dowager woke up and heard the imperial physician's words, she didn't have a sad look on her face, but rather relaxed.
After all, although she was not favored when she was young, the Empress Dowager took care of her in the harem, and the emperor respected and filially treated her very much. The next few decades lived comfortably and easily, but it was a pity that she couldn't go back to see her hometown.
But after his death, he may be buried in the place where he was born, so there is nothing to regret.
Wu Fujin was very sad, these years she served by the empress dowager's side, when the empress dowager was taken care of by her own grandmother.
The two had a very happy conversation. They got along very well these years, and their relationship was deep.
When the empress dowager was ill last year, Wu Fujin packed up his things and went directly to the palace to take care of the empress dowager, staying by the bed day and night.
When the empress dowager woke up occasionally, she would always see Wu Fujin first.
Seeing Wu Fujin look haggard and thinner, the Empress Dowager felt very distressed.
The fifth elder brother also advised Wu Fujin that the two of them should take turns to take care of him. After all, Wu Fujin's thin appearance was really frightening, and he became so thin all of a sudden. He was afraid that the empress dowager would really pass away one day, and Wu Fujin would have to support him too. Can't go down.
Over the years, Brother Wu's feelings towards Wu Fujin have also been very complicated. From being a little annoyed at the beginning, to later annoyed against her, and seeing Wu Fujin live more comfortably than before, he was also unhappy.
Now seeing Wu Fujin serving the Empress Dowager with all his heart and soul, Fifth Elder Brother was moved and sad, and also felt a little bit of pity.
He was really worried about Wu Fujin and tried to persuade him again and again, but it was a pity that Wu Fujin didn't listen at all.
Wu Fujin said: "I'm going to leave here and I won't be able to sleep when I go back. It's better to stay here all the time, and I can still sleep for a while. And it's more convenient for me to stay here to take care of the Empress Dowager. You can come here during the day."
She didn't stop the fifth elder brother from fulfilling his filial piety. It is true that the fifth elder brother is not as comfortable as Wu Fujin in taking care of the empress dowager.
It's okay during the day, but not at night.
So fifth elder brother came to help during the day, persuading Wu Fujin to close his eyes for a while.
Wu Fujin silently said: The Empress Dowager will definitely get better.
At that time, the imperial doctor said that it was dangerous, but the empress dowager still survived the Spring Festival and the spring, and even waited until the wedding of the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother, and brought the Fujins to pay homage to the empress dowager.
Wu Fujin thought that although the empress dowager was in danger before, she would gradually get better after getting through it, and she might live a long life.
Especially after the Empress Dowager had met the Thirteenth Fujin and the Fourteenth Fujin before, she went back and kept smiling and boasting to Wu Fujin: "One is gentle and the other is heroic. They are both good boys. The emperor gave Xiao San and Xiao Shi The daughter-in-law who picks four is the best."
She babbled and praised a few times, she was as excited as a child, and Wu Fujin laughed beside her, seeing the empress dowager so happy, she was also happy in her heart.
As usual, after the meal, the empress dowager would take a nap to feel better.
This time she talked for a long time before going to take a nap, and Wu Fujin stayed by the bed as usual.
When the empress dowager woke up normally, she was quiet and never woke up.
Wu Fujin thought that the Empress Dowager was exhausted in the morning, and it would be okay to sleep a little longer.
However, she waited and waited until the empress dowager woke up, so she panicked, and hurriedly sent for the imperial physician.
The empress dowager was only awake for a while before falling asleep again. When she woke up again, she still couldn't tell the time. She saw the fifth elder brother sitting in front of the couch and turned her head to look at the other side. She took advantage of the situation and saw five Fujin was lying on his bed, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and he didn't seem to be sleeping very soundly.
She whispered: "What are you doing stupidly, quickly cover Rong Ji with a blanket."
The fifth elder brother was taken aback, and when he heard the empress dowager's words, he smiled wryly and said, "Huang Mama, my grandson did this yesterday, but woke Rong Ji up. It's not easy for her to fall asleep, so that's the only way to go."
His voice was also kept very low, for fear of waking Wu Fujin up.
The empress dowager lightly patted the back of the fifth elder brother's hand, and sighed: "I have watched you all these years, and you are all good boys, but you are too stubborn. You don't want to quit, and she doesn't want to. It's deadlocked."
She saw the uncomfortable expression of the fifth elder brother and said: "Now it seems that you still have Rong Ji in your heart. How did you make things come to this point? You have to treat Rong Ji better in the future and live a good life together." .”
The empress dowager's speech was not as weak as before, and the fifth prince's heart skipped a beat: "Mama Huang..."
Obviously the empress dowager also knew it well, her eyes were bright and she was relieved: "Why panic, when the time comes, I should go back to the place I should go. After all, there is such a moment, and I am lucky to live such a long life."
"It's just you and Rongji who I can't let go of the most."
The empress dowager signaled her confidant to invite the emperor to come over, while being supported by the fifth elder brother to sit up.
Wu Fujin also woke up with a start, rushed to the couch, saw that the Empress Dowager's complexion was better than before, it could even be said that her face was flushed, and she suddenly turned pale with shock: "The Empress Dowager..."
Her eyes were red and she was about to shed tears. The empress dowager said helplessly: "Don't cry, don't cry your eyes out. It was agreed before that I smiled when I left, and Rong Ji had to smile to see me off." yes."
At that time, Wu Fujin just reluctantly agreed, being the empress dowager was a joke, but now that the time has really come, how can he laugh?
But she also knew that the empress dowager didn't want to see herself cry, so she tried her best to hold back the tears, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes and not really crying.
The Empress Dowager laughed, touched Wu Fujin's head and said, "Good boy."
She held Wu Fujin's hand and put it in Wu's elder brother's palm: "In the future, you can live a good life, and I can rest assured. If Xiao Wu bullies you, Rong Ji can just scold you back. If Xiao Wu dares to treat you badly, I will go He reprimanded him in his dream."
Wu Fujin lowered her head and said nothing, Fifth Elder Brother held her hand and said, "Don't worry, Mama Huang, I will take good care of Rong Ji."
The empress dowager nodded, and the emperor over there had already rushed over.
The fifth elder brother had no choice but to take Wu Fujin out, and the emperor turned pale when he saw the empress dowager.
Even though he had vaguely guessed it before coming, he still couldn't believe it when he saw it.
The empress dowager looked at the emperor in front of the couch and said with a smile: "I have lived a very good life in these years, and I have a long life. Although I am not a mother and son with the emperor, the emperor has always treated me with respect and filial piety like a mother-in-law. I am very grateful. "
She looked out the window and said softly: "I only have one thought, I hope I can be buried in the place where I was born and raised, is that okay?"
I can't go back during my lifetime, I only hope to return to the place where I was born after death.
Naturally, the emperor had nothing to say, so he lowered his head and promised, "Don't worry, Empress, I... promise you."
The empress dowager understood that this was not in compliance with the rules, but the emperor still complied with her willful request, and said kindly, "Your majesty, you should also take care of yourself, don't be too sad. My long life can be regarded as joy and mourning."
She didn't stay with the emperor for too long, and barely finished speaking with the emperor, the empress dowager lost all strength.
After the emperor left, the empress dowager couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep again in a drowsy state.
It's just that after sleeping, the empress dowager never got up again.
The empress dowager died of illness, and the death knell rang again and again, as if it was hitting people's hearts.
When the fourth elder brother rushed over, the empress dowager happened to be talking to the emperor, so he only waited outside for a while.
Then the Empress Dowager quickly fell asleep again, unable to see anyone at all.
Hearing the bell, the fourth elder brother knew that he was late and could not see the empress dowager for the last time.
Brother Jiu rushed over and couldn't help frowning when he heard the bell. Although he had guessed before, he didn't expect it to come so soon.
It's just that the empress dowager has been sick all the time, and now she has passed away after returning to the light and confessing, so there is no regret.
He sighed, although the Empress Dowager was not a real grandmother, she treated them very well.
Every time I went to pay my respects when I was young, the Empress Dowager always smiled.
Even though many elder brothers could not speak or listen to Mongolian well at that time, and the empress dowager needed a nanny to translate, she still brought them a lot of delicious snacks.
Brother Jiu was very impressed, that is, the empress dowager would touch the little brother's head with a kind and gentle smile.
Geng Yi learned that the empress dowager passed away in a coma after talking to the fifth elder brother, Wu Fujin, and the emperor. He must have confessed, and he couldn't help but sigh.
She remembered that she had met the empress dowager before, she was a kind and gentle old lady.
Now that the empress dowager has a long life, Geng Yi will still feel sad when a familiar person leaves.
Birth, old age, sickness and death cannot be stopped, no matter how skilled the medical skills are, there is no way but to make the deceased live a more comfortable and relaxed life before leaving.
The empress dowager's final meaning was to keep everything simple, and what she told the emperor was that she was unwilling to be extravagant.
In addition to the adult elder brother going to the palace to worship, she also confessed that Fujin and the side Fujin were not allowed to take the children, lest the children have clean eyes and see something they shouldn't see, and it would be bad to be scared.
Honghui was also left in the mansion, but couldn't follow him into the palace with tears in his eyes.
Geng Yi followed the fourth elder brother, and together with Si Fujin, Li Fangfujin, and Niu Gulu Gege, entered the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager.
From a distance, she saw the fifth elder brother suddenly hugged the fainted person beside him and shouted in panic, "Where is the imperial doctor, please come here quickly."
The imperial doctor had been waiting in the side hall for a long time, and rushed out as soon as he heard the fifth elder brother's cry, and felt the pulse of the person in the fifth elder brother's arms.
It was only then that Geng Yi realized that the fifth elder brother was holding Wu Fujin in his arms, and he couldn't recognize it for a while.
Because Wu Fujin was too thin, his face was pale, his chin was pointed, his eyes were still full of blue shadows, and he didn't know how long he hadn't slept.
The imperial doctor frowned after feeling the pulse and said: "Wu Fujin didn't touch any water, didn't eat anything, and probably didn't sleep well at night, that's why he fainted from weakness."
He asked the fifth elder brother to help Wu Fu to the side, and asked the medicine boy to decoct the medicine.
Geng Yi listened carefully and found that most of them were medicinal materials for nourishing blood and tonifying deficiency.
But if Wu Fujin didn't take good care of his body like this, and always refused to eat or drink, even the gods of Da Luo couldn't save him, let alone the imperial doctor, and he would be helpless.
The fifth elder brother asked two nuns to help place Wu Fujin in the back hall. Hearing that the fourth elder brother was coming with his family, he rushed out to welcome him.
The fourth elder brother first brought the female relatives to worship together, and then retreated.
The elder brothers all went up to pay respects with silent faces, and they didn't talk much to each other, each of them felt very sad.
Seeing that the fifth elder brother came out in a hurry, the fourth elder brother took him to a corner and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with the fifth younger brother?"
The fifth elder brother smiled bitterly and said: "Rong Ji and Huang Mama have the deepest relationship. As soon as Huang Mama left, she couldn't bear it and passed out. She kept crying when she woke up and couldn't eat anything. I invited her mother-in-law over , persuaded her to eat two mouthfuls and vomited again, and couldn’t sleep at night. Last night, she struggled to keep vigil. In the end, if Huang Ama didn’t see Rong Ji’s face so ugly, she asked her to go back to rest, maybe she was still guarding in front of the coffin. Last night."
He also had a headache, Wu Fujin was so sad that he couldn't eat anything, and insisted on guarding the empress dowager's spirit.
The fourth elder brother patted the fifth elder brother on the shoulder, knowing his difficulty.
The fifth elder brother was raised beside the empress dowager since he was a child, and he has a very deep affection for the empress dowager.
Wu Fujin served the empress dowager for several years and talked about everything, so it was the same.
Now that the empress dowager is gone, the fifth elder brother is sad, and he has to cheer up to take care of Wu Fujin, for fear that she will make him sick, and the fifth elder brother will only be more sad.
The fourth elder brother didn't know what to do, so the fifth elder brother could only ask his sisters-in-law to persuade Wu Fujin.
Several Fujins have gone to see Wu Fujin, and it hurts to see her face so pale.
Wu Fujin only fainted for a while before waking up. Seeing a few sisters-in-law looking at him very worriedly, the circles of his eyes suddenly turned red.
Da Fujin quickly helped him up and said: "Don't cry, the beautiful eyes of the fifth sibling are swollen from crying, quickly ask the maid to twist a cold handkerchief to apply."
San Fujin hurriedly took a pillow and stuffed it on Wu Fujin's back, took the cold handkerchief from the palace maid, and gently put it on the corners of Wu Fujin's eyes: "The fifth brother and sister suddenly fell down, and the fifth younger brother was so frightened that his face was as white as paper." The same. The empress dowager is gone, and the fifth younger brother suffers as much as the fifth younger sibling."
Si Fujin took the soup from the eunuch and felt that the bottom of the bowl was not too hot, so he handed it over: "The fifth sibling should drink the soup first, and take care of himself. If the queen mother is still here, seeing the fifth sibling like this I don't know how much it hurts."
Wu Fujin's eye circles became even redder, but he still obediently finished the soup.
Shi Fujin handed over a candied fruit and stuffed it into Wu Fujin's mouth, and she ate it with a mouth full of sweetness.
Ten Fujin's Manchu language is much better than before: "This candied fruit is coated with a layer of sugar, which makes it a bit sweeter. My mother-in-law said that when you feel bad, you should eat more sweets. After all, there is nothing you can't bear." Kan. If you really can't make it through, then eat something sweeter."
Seeing Wu Fujin finish eating slowly, Shi Fujin stuffed another one.
Wu Fujin felt the sweet taste in his mouth, and the dizzy feeling that his eyes went dark and he was in a trance slowly dissipated.
It was as if she was ruining her body without eating or drinking, thinking that she could leave with the empress dowager in this way.
Now that he only ate two candied fruit and drank a bowl of decoction, Wu Fujin felt his body began to recover a little bit, with strength in his body, as if he had come back to life.
She thought about making herself half dead, maybe she could go with the empress dowager.
If this is the case, the Empress Dowager Quanxia knows, and I am afraid she will scold herself.
Don't look at the empress dowager who has a good temper and always smiles. When she is angry, she can curse people in Mongolian.
Wu Fujin lowered his head, Dou Da's tears fell down.
Da Fujin sighed softly, got up and asked the other sisters-in-law to go out together, giving Wu Fujin a chance to be alone and quiet, and also allowed her to cry freely and pour out the depression accumulated in her heart.
Wu Fujin wailed for a long time until his voice became hoarse, but when he looked up, he saw Fifth Elder Brother standing by his side, with red eyes and tear stains on his cheeks, obviously crying with her.
She hesitated for a while, and held Fifth Prince's hand.
Fifth elder brother lowered his head and rested his forehead on Wu Fujin's shoulder.
The two were so close for the first time in many years, but suddenly they let nature take its course.
The twelfth elder brother didn't expect that the Ministry of Internal Affairs finally finished the wedding of the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother. Before he took a breather, the empress dowager passed away, and he had to start busy with the empress dowager's affairs.
The empress dowager's mausoleum has already been built, and it is almost finished, it is in Xiaodong Mausoleum.
Because the empress dowager had mentioned before that she did not want to be buried with the late emperor, the emperor sent someone to build a separate mausoleum for the empress.
This is also the first queen's mausoleum built separately without being buried with the emperor.
However, before the empress dowager died, she wanted to be buried in the place where she was born, which made the emperor very distressed, and it was difficult to give up the empress mausoleum that had been built, so he had to choose a compromise method.
The Empress Dowager was still buried in the Xiaodong Mausoleum, and the clothes and jewelry she loved during her lifetime were sent back to the place where she was born in the Mongolian tribe. Finding a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to set up a clothes tomb is all the empress dowager's thoughts.
The emperor stood in front of the map in the Imperial Study Room, and Li Dequan stood guard at the door with his head bowed.
The emperor has been staring at the map like this all night without closing his eyes. It can be said that the emperor has never rested since he met the empress dowager.
First, I asked the twelfth elder brother to inquire about the empress dowager's memorial arrangement, and then stopped the morning court, urging the Xiaodong Tomb to be completed as soon as possible, and planned to personally choose the location for the empress dowager's tomb. It can be said that the emperor was non-stop, and he couldn't rest at all. .
Li Dequan felt that the emperor did not want to rest, but did not want to rest.
The empress dowager had no children, and the first emperor passed away early. Except for the empress dowager, the empress dowager was the relative who accompanied the emperor for the longest time, and it was better than a mother and son.
The sudden death of the empress dowager made the emperor so sad that he could not close his eyes for a long time, as if he might think of the empress dowager when he closed his eyes.
The emperor finally chose three places, drew circles with his fingertips, and asked people to record them.
Send people to investigate one or two times, to see where the most suitable place is, and circle it.
Half a month later, Xiaodong Mausoleum was officially completed, and the empress dowager's ice coffin was delivered from the palace.
The fifth elder brother and Wu Fujin asked to help the spirit, and the emperor nodded in agreement.
The emperor watched the spirit-supporting team leave the palace gate in a mighty way, and suddenly fell down in darkness.
Li Dequan was so frightened that he rushed over to support the emperor, and shouted: "Come here, please ask the imperial physician."
The head of the hospital rushed over with almost all the imperial physicians, and the emperor had been carefully sent back to the Qianqing Palace by the guards.
The head of the hospital frowned after taking his pulse. The emperor obviously hadn't rested for a long time after being overjoyed and sad. Now that he was old and his body couldn't bear it, he suddenly fainted.
The conclusions of the other imperial physicians after taking the pulse were similar to those of the head of the hospital. The emperor was so depressed that he forcibly held on for half a month to keep the coffin, but his body couldn't bear it before he fell down.
The concubine and elder brothers were extremely worried and stood outside waiting for the emperor to wake up.
After acupuncture and moxibustion at the head of the hospital, the emperor finally woke up slowly, watching the imperial physicians in the room gradually waking up.
He lightly raised his hand, indicating that the people waiting outside could leave.
Only a few important ministers and the fourth elder brother were called in, and the emperor ordered: "I am temporarily unable to manage the affairs of the court. I will not open the court in the morning. The papers sent will be reviewed by the fourth elder brother and several important ministers in turn. If the decision cannot be made, the fourth elder is the one who decides." gone."
Several important ministers could hear that the emperor was planning to delegate power to the fourth elder brother, so they couldn't help but look at each other.
The fourth elder brother looked at the emperor worriedly: "Ama Huang, my son..."
The emperor was a little tired, so he glanced at him and said, "The fourth brother handled it well before, so there won't be any problems. If you really can't handle it, then come and ask me."
He was so tired that he couldn't open his eyes. The meaning of the head of the hospital was that the emperor couldn't be tired now, so he had to take care of himself and rest.
The kitchen sent a good rice porridge, the emperor reluctantly took a few mouthfuls, drank the decoction and fell into a deep sleep.
After the fourth elder brother went out, several important officials saluted him, and he pondered: "Then deal with the papers in the side hall, deal with the urgent ones first, and put aside the unimportant ones for the time being."
After all, due to the death of the empress dowager during this period, the emperor had no intention of dealing with the notes, which had piled up like a mountain.
The fourth elder brother was a little worried about the emperor. If he was dealing with Zhezi in the side hall, he would go over to take a look at it from time to time before he could feel relieved.
Naturally, several important ministers had no objection, and they prioritized the documents in the side hall and began to read them.
It took a long time to look at it. On the way, the imperial dining room brought vegetarian dishes, and they ate a few mouthfuls indiscriminately and continued to read the booklet.
After the meal, the fourth elder brother went to the next door to have a look. The emperor was still in a deep sleep. What Li Dequan meant was that he didn't wake up halfway.
The head of the hospital said that the decoction contained soothing herbs, and the most important thing for the emperor now is to sleep more to rest.
The fourth elder brother took a look, then went to the next door to continue to read the booklets, until the palace gate was about to be locked, then he invited some important officials back, but he planned to stay in the palace.
He stayed, and the few ministers who had the nerve to leave all said that they should deal with it as soon as possible.
The fourth elder brother nodded with a smile, and sent someone to the minister's house to talk about it, so as not to worry their family members, and also sent someone to talk to Si Fujin and the others.
Because the empress dowager died suddenly, the fourth elder brother sent Su Peisheng to the Old Summer Palace that night, and asked them to pack up and move back to Prince Yong's mansion overnight.
Geng Yi didn't expect to return to the capital for such a reason, so he hurriedly packed up and moved back to Prince Yong's mansion in a hurry.
The packed cages and boxes didn't look like many, but they almost filled the whole yard.
Living in Yuanmingyuan was too spacious, and Geng Yi was not used to coming back suddenly.
Not to mention her, even Hong Zhou was not used to it.
He wandered around the yard, and came back to where he was in a blink of an eye. He was still a little confused, and found that his room was much smaller.
However, the child's adaptability is also quite good, and he got used to it within two days. I guess he still thinks that if the room is small, it's good that he doesn't have to walk so many steps.
The fourth elder brother was diligently reading the booklets in the palace and never came back.
Intermittent news came from the palace. For example, the emperor woke up after sleeping for a whole day and night. After eating something, his energy was much better, and he was able to discuss political affairs with the fourth elder brother.
For example, white flags are hung inside and outside the palace, the common people suspend marriage, vegetarian and filial piety, etc.
The same is true in Prince Yong's Mansion, the kitchen has been cleared of all meat dishes, and only vegetarian dishes can be eaten every day.
But the children are growing up, and there are no outsiders in the mansion, Huai Ke and a few little brothers can eat minced meat and eggs in private, and other people don't have this treatment.
Geng Yi actually adapted well to eating vegetarian dishes, after all, Chef Ma can make various vegetarian dishes.
Even if the empress dowager dies, they have to observe filial piety for one year, and they have to be vegetarians for one year.
You can't go out to play at will, let alone have fun at home, and you can't even have the sound of silk and bamboo.
Hongzhou's favorite models were all put away, his little face was full of confusion, and Geng Yi could only say it over and over again.
The child is too young to understand the word filial piety, but he also understands that he cannot play with models for the time being.
The bright clothes, shoes and jewelry have all been replaced, and they can only wear plain colors.
He couldn't even put on makeup, Geng Yi only put on some snow jade cream after washing his face, and didn't need to put on the rest, and he didn't wear much jewelry.Anyway, no one will come to the house now, and they can't go out as guests, and they don't see anyone, so why bother!
Before the fourth brother had to watch and cry in the palace, and had to help the emperor deal with the papers, Geng Yi was worried that he, a workaholic, would be too busy to eat or drink.
Si Fujin was also worried, but unfortunately they couldn't enter the palace at will now.
Now I can only be a vegetarian, and I can't even deliver soup. At most, Su Peisheng can ask the fourth elder brother when he comes back to pick up his clothes.
Su Peisheng only said that the fourth elder brother was fine in everything, but he was a little tired.
There are ginseng and tea served in the palace, and the fourth elder brother and several ministers almost eat and sleep in the side hall.
When you get tired from reading the book, you will doze off for a while, wake up and continue reading, and eat something in the middle.
The minister was exhausted, and so was the fourth elder brother.
Anyway, within half a month, I finally finished reading most of the papers, the urgent ones have been sent out, and the ones that can't be dealt with have been resolved after discussing with the emperor.
Although there are replacement clothes, you can wipe your body but you can't take a bath, let alone a few ministers, the fourth elder brother can't stand it.
After disposing of the last notebook, the fourth elder brother stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead. Some courtiers wrote in a flashy manner, and they were all notebooks asking for greetings. They were useless, but they had to read them.
After all, you can see some clues in these invitations to An Zhezi, but you have to look carefully.
The fourth elder brother raised his head and asked several ministers to go out of the palace to go back to rest. He also got up and planned to tell the emperor to go out of the palace to go back to rest.
Su Peisheng came in hurriedly at this time, and whispered in his ear: "Si Fujin hastily asked someone to call the imperial physician to the house, and it might be wrong to say that it is brother Honghui."
The fourth prince's eyes widened when he heard this, he took a deep breath and hurried to the next door to pay his respects to the emperor, his expression returned to normal, he only said that Zhezi had been dealt with, and he went back to Prince Yong's mansion to rest for the time being.
The emperor was drinking ginseng soup, and nodded after hearing this: "Your fourth is working hard, please come back after a few days of rest."
He was a little drowsy after drinking the soup. The fourth elder brother helped the emperor to lie down again. After seeing the emperor closed his eyes and fell asleep, he retreated lightly, and his pace kept accelerating. Su Peisheng almost had to run to catch up. superior.
The fourth elder brother asked in a low voice: "Has the imperial doctor been invited?"
Su Peisheng also lowered his voice and said, "Yes, the carriage has just left the palace."
Geng Yi didn't expect that he was still doing nothing in the mansion today, so he asked a few elder brothers to meet and talk.
Honghui doesn't have to go to class now, he doesn't have homework, and he still reads and writes big characters every day, but he has more free time, so he came over to play with his younger brothers today.
Geng Yi raised his head to see Hong Hui coming in and saluted with a smile, the red light appeared rarely again, falling from the top of Hong Hui's head like flowing water, covering his whole body.
The red light appeared and disappeared quickly, but the color was much redder than usual.
Geng Yi immediately stared at Hong Hui's small face carefully, his cheeks were slightly red.
Because of the hot weather, he came all the way here, and it would not be surprising if his cheeks were tanned. However, there is no sun outside today, and Honghui's forehead is not sweaty, which proves that his body is not hot, but his face is red, especially the left cheek. The right cheek is much redder.
The left cheek represents the liver meridian, and the right cheek is the lung meridian.
Honghui's gaze was not as agile as usual, and slightly straightened, but he couldn't detect it unless he looked carefully.
The eyes also belong to the liver meridian, which proves that his liver meridian is damaged, which is also a sign that the liver meridian is suffering from evil winds entering the body.
Geng Yi was worried that he had read it wrong. Seeing Honghui came in and sat down, he frowned slightly while drinking hot tea, and asked the servant girl to change to cold tea, telling Si Fujin that it felt a little hot.
However, Honghui still didn't sweat. It stands to reason that if it is hot from the outside, he will naturally sweat after drinking water.
After waiting for a full quarter of an hour, Honghui's forehead was still smooth without any sweat.
Geng Yi's gaze was very dark, even though the red light appeared, but there was no reminder, she planned to see it clearly before speaking.
Sifujin was very keen, and noticed that Geng Yi's gaze had been following Honghui.
Geng Yi had discovered so many things before, Si Fujin couldn't help but jump in his heart.
She made an excuse to go inside to talk about the sale of pear paste candy. Honghui knew that Sifujin and Geng Yi worked together to do this, so he didn't think much about it, let alone listen to it.
After entering, Si Fujin asked in a low voice: "My sister has been staring at Honghui just now, is there something wrong?"
Geng Yi looked at Shangsi Fujin's worried expression, and said after deliberation: "I don't know for certain, I just think that Honghui may have liver evil entering his body."
Hearing these words, Si Fujin's face turned pale, and his voice was lowered: "Then Honghui..."
Geng Yi quickly replied: "Sister, don't panic, first send someone to the palace to invite the imperial physician over."
When liver evil enters the body, people are prone to convulsions.
The liver meridian was at its weakest at noon, and Geng Yi guessed that Honghui would probably have convulsions at noon, so it would be better to call the imperial physician over earlier.
Without saying a word, Si Fujin asked someone to take a post and go to the palace to invite the imperial physician. Honghui is her heart and soul, and nothing can happen to her.
Geng Yi saw that Si Fujin was so frightened that everyone started to tremble, and he hurriedly comforted him: "Sister, don't worry, the imperial doctor came earlier, Honghui will be fine."
Si Fujin nodded, she took a few deep breaths in the mirror, patted her cheeks with her hands to show some rosiness, and then went out as if nothing had happened.
Hearing that Honghui will not be up until noon, Sifujin reluctantly puts his mind down a little, and only hopes that the imperial physician will come over as soon as possible.
The groom of Prince Yong's Mansion swung his whip wildly, and the carriage ran so fast that the imperial doctor almost fainted, and almost failed to stand still when he got off the carriage.
Before the imperial doctor could stand still, two tall guards helped him in.
It is said to be supported, but it is basically supported.
The imperial doctor had just entered the second gate and was put down by the guards, but the fourth elder brother had rushed back on the back, got off his horse and strode in.
The fourth elder brother went in and saw Hong Hui who was still sitting in the seat, with surprise and doubt in his eyes.
But he believed that Sifujin would not joke about this kind of thing, so he only asked the imperial physician to feel Honghui's pulse.
Before the imperial doctor came, he thought Honghui was in an emergency, and the carriage drove all the way. After entering, Honghui sat down, and he was confused: that's it?
It's just that the imperial physician restrained his expression and hurried forward to feel the pulse.
Honghui's face suddenly changed, and he fell backwards.
The fourth elder brother quickly caught Hong Hui, and found that he was twitching non-stop in his arms, and his expression changed immediately.
The imperial physician quickly stretched out his hand to take Honghui's pulse, and said with a surprised expression: "The pulse condition is tight, the spleen is deficient and the liver is full of fire, and it is necessary to relieve the heart, liver and kidney."
He quickly wrote down the prescription, and Su Peisheng trotted all the way for someone to grab the medicine, and then he decocted it himself.
Honghui convulsed more and more in the arms of the fourth elder brother, and the imperial physician was helpless.
He smoked too hard, it would be difficult to align the acupoints with silver needles, and it would be ineffective if the acupuncture was wrong, so Si Age and Si Fujin had to hold Hong Hui down.
Then someone put a veil in Hong Hui's mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue.
Geng Yi looked at Hong Hui's heartache, but the imperial physician was waiting to deliver the soup, helpless, so she couldn't hold back anymore, and said to the fourth elder brother: "Master, let me try it, so that Hong Hui can feel better."
The imperial physician hurriedly asked: "I don't know what Fang Fujin plans to do?"
Geng Yi quickly explained: "There are three meridians on the inner thigh, the Liver Meridian, the Kidney Meridian and the Spleen Meridian. Pushing on the Liver Meridian can make Honghui's convulsions a little better."
The imperial physician nodded, and said to the fourth elder brother: "It is indeed a way to alleviate it."
He wanted to say that the effect might not be too great, so he was useless just now.
