There is a long way to go before returning the pearl

Nanny Gui just woke up early, tidied things up, and then rushed to the Queen Mother to serve her.

"Mommy, mommy, good news." A young eunuch ran quickly, and it was just dawn, and Nanny Gui couldn't see clearly.

"What's going on here, you're so frizzy." When have the people in the Compassionate Ning Palace been so flustered, they all followed the Queen Mother step by step. Whether they are people who have just entered the palace for a few years, they still need to be trained.

The little eunuch respectfully bowed to Nanny Gui, "What Mammy taught me is that the servant must remember it."

Gui Momo's face looked better now, "Well, what happened."

The little eunuch raised his head and looked at Nanny Gui grinning, his eyes full of joy, "Mommy, I heard the news that Elder Twelve returned to the palace in the middle of the night, and now he is resting in the emperor's bedroom."

"Really." Nanny Gui finally felt relieved, "That's good, that's good, the Queen Mother doesn't have to worry every day.

The little eunuch was also happy, "Mommy, the news of Brother Twelve's return to the palace may be heard by the whole palace in a while."

Nanny Gui nodded, "Well, you did a good job this time," taking out the silver from her waist, "Take it."

"Thank you, Mommy." The little eunuch took it and was going to go back to show off.This was rewarded by Nanny Gui next to the Empress Dowager, and it's a honor to say it.

On the other side of the Jingyang Palace, the queen was already dressing up. When she heard the news of Yongzhen's return to the palace, she didn't want to wait for a moment. If she didn't see Yongzhen, she couldn't be at ease.

"Mommy, hurry up." Nanny Rong smiled, the queen was really in a hurry this time.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the emperor is in the early court, look at Elder Brother Twelve, if you bump into the returning emperor, your empress should also dress up beautifully, so that the emperor's eyes will shine."

The queen gave her a nonchalant look, "I don't care, let's go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning, not the emperor's place." Nurse Rong quickened her hand movements and asked puzzledly, "Queen, Elder Brother Twelve is at the emperor's place." Well, how do I get to the Queen Mother?"

The queen finally looked at herself in the glasses, very satisfied, "Twelve just returned to the palace today, according to the rules, we have to go to the queen mother to pay my respects, let's go." A mighty group of people went to the queen mother's compassionate palace .

In the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Qing'er and Nanny Gui used to serve her, but today Nanny Gui is the only one. The Empress Dowager felt sad for a while when she thought of Qing'er who was married.Nanny Gui helped the Queen Mother up, "Queen Mother, I heard that Elder Brother Twelve has returned to the palace."

The Empress Dowager raised her hand, and Nanny Gui helped her get dressed, "Amitabha, God bless you, please come back, when will you be?"

"At the fourth watch, it seemed that the emperor brought him back. All the eunuchs and maids who saw her said that Brother Twelve has suffered a lot, and his whole person has changed." Nanny Gui turned to face the Empress Dowager, and buttoned her front lapel. the buckle.

The empress dowager sighed, "I'm sorry for the dear grandson of Ai's family, how can the emperor go to pick him up in person, just instruct the people below." More or less, the empress dowager expressed dissatisfaction with the emperor's behavior.

Nanny Gui paused her hands and thought for a while, "Maybe the emperor is worried. Yesterday, he and the prince married his daughter-in-law. For other individuals, the emperor can't compare with the prince."

The queen mother thought about it, and it was the same reason, "You know that you are talking to the emperor, and you still speak for him."

Nanny Gui laughed immediately, "The queen mother is just happy to find old slaves. You are the emperor's mother. Whatever the emperor has in mind, nothing can escape your eyes."

The queen mother was amused by Nanny Gui, "You, you will always pick up what the Ai family loves to hear."

Nanny Qin came in with a water basin and heard the Empress Dowager's laughter, "It must be the filial piety of Elder Brother Twelve that has moved the heavens. I see that the Empress Dowager looks very good today."

"Oh? How do you say that?" The queen mother stretched out her hand and washed her hands gently.

Mother Qin continued to smile, "Empress Dowager, Elder Brother Twelve is waiting outside the hall. He has just returned to the palace and came to pay his respects to Empress Dowager after sleeping for more than an hour. This kind of filial piety is incomparable to anyone."

The queen mother was not happy, "It's cold outside, why don't you hurry up and let him into the palace to warm up."

Nanny Gui handed over the handkerchief, "Queen Dowager, listen to what she said, the [-]th Elder Brother has been invited into the palace by the First Brigadier."

Nanny Qin and Nanny Gui looked at each other and smiled, and the Queen Mother pointed at them, "This Qing'er just left, and you two are like this, and Qing'er from the Ai family is still sweet."

The three walked out talking and laughing, Nanny Gui and Nanny Qin were also relieved, they were afraid that Qing Gege would leave suddenly and the Queen Mother would be in a bad mood.

Yongzhen stood in the hall and waited for the Queen Mother. Although he was sleepy, he should get up early to greet the Queen Mother. Seeing Mother Qin and Mother Gui walking out with the help of the Queen Mother, Yongzhen took a few steps forward quickly, teasing the Queen Mother. Pulling up the hem of his clothes, 'Plop' knelt down, "Grandson pays respects to Mama Huang."

"Get up, get up..." Nanny Gui let go of the Queen Mother, walked over, and helped Twelve up, "Thank you, Mama Emperor."

Yongxin stood up, and Nanny Gui saw Yongxin's face, she was really a poor child.Nanny Qin supported the queen mother to sit down, but Yongzheng was still standing there without moving, "The grandson was relieved when Ama Huang said that Mama Huang was in good health, and when she thought of Sister Qing'er's marriage, she was worried that Mama Huang would be sad." .”

The Empress Dowager picked up the tea, smiled in her heart, on her face, and in her eyes, "Ai's family is fine, but Twelve has suffered a lot."

Yong Xing smiled, "It's not bitter, grandson is loved by the Empress Dowager." Nanny Gui looked at Yong Xing's smile and felt even more bitter in her heart. This must be the reason why Elder Brother Twelve didn't come to the Empress Dowager's side. The Empress Dowager is getting old, her eyesight is not very good, the Empress Dowager can't see clearly from a distance, if you look closely, I'm afraid she will feel distressed, these twelve princes are the ones who really care about the Empress Dowager.

Nanny Qin has seen it before, Nanny Gui nodded at her, and Nanny Qin interrupted with a smile, "Queen Mother, this old slave is watching, I haven't seen you for a few days, Brother Twelve has grown up a lot, not like before, Always love to be close to the Queen Mother."

The queen mother always felt awkward, and then she remembered, and waved to Twelve, "Twelve, sit next to Ai's house."

Twelve lowered her head helplessly, she did not miss the interaction between Nanny Gui and Nanny Qin, the queen mother had said everything, and he had to listen, and walked towards the queen mother step by step.

The queen mother pulled the man to her side, looked at him carefully, "I lost weight."

"Huang Mama, this is just right for my grandson. He was fat before." Only then did Yong Xing raise his head, look at the queen mother, and replied coquettishly.The Queen Mother was taken aback by Yongzheng, and saw that Yongzheng's eyes were deeply sunken and bloodshot, and what was worse was that his face was pale without any rosiness, and his whole face looked like he had been ill for a long time.

The Queen Mother dragged him into her arms, and gently brushed his face with her fingers, "Poor child, how much you have suffered."

Yong Xing knew that he was fine, but he looked bad. In fact, he didn't eat well and sleep well recently, plus he was worried and had nightmares, which made him look serious.He stretched out his hand to hold the Queen Mother's hand, "Grandson is fine, don't worry about it, Huang Mama, otherwise, grandson will feel bad."

Nanny Gui also persuaded, "Queen Mother, Brother Twelve came to pay his respects to reassure you, but this makes you worry."

The queen mother pinched Twelve's nose, "Silly boy, it's good to know when you come back to Aijia. If you are so tired, you should take a good rest. When you go back in a while, you are not allowed to go anywhere. Just take care of your body."

The Empress Dowager Twelve Chong smiled, "Yes, my grandson knows."

"The empress is here..."

As soon as the queen mother heard it, she understood that it was the queen who wanted to see Yongzheng and couldn't wait to come to her. "Quick, your mother-in-law is here, I must miss you."

Yongzhen stood up, the queen walked in, and saluted the queen mother, "Greetings to the queen mother." The people in the hall saluted the queen, "See the queen."

The queen mother waved her hand, "Get up." The queen stood up, and the first thing she looked at was Yongzheng. Yongzheng walked down and came to the queen's side, "Emperor Niang."

The queen couldn't hold it back, her eyes were red, and she hugged him in her arms, "Yongxi, the Empress finally wants you back."

Seeing this warm scene, the Empress Dowager's eyes turned red, "Come and sit down." Then she ordered Nanny Gui, "Let the small kitchen make some favorite foods."

"Yes." Nanny Gui left quickly, the queen pulled Yongzheng to sit down, when the emperor's voice came, "It's time for me to come." Qianlong was still following Hongzhou.

The two sides saluted again. Qianlong sat on the empress dowager's soft couch, and the empress, Hongzhou and Yongzhen sat on round stools.

"Emperor Niang, I haven't eaten yet." Hong Zhou was annoyed by Qian Long, feeling his stomach was empty.

"Okay, let's have dinner at Ai's house today." The queen mother is in a good mood, this time several people are here, so they have the right to gather together.

Hongzhou was happy, and raised his eyebrows at Qianlong, what's the matter, if you don't keep me for dinner, someone will stay.Qianlong didn't bother to talk to him, and now he was worried about Yongzheng, who didn't look as good as yesterday.

Yong Xing looked at Hong Zhou with a funny face, "Uncle Huang, why don't you always have to eat at Huang Mama's place? Sister Qing'er got married yesterday, and she is going to serve tea to her father-in-law and mother-in-law early this morning, why don't you hurry back?"

Hongzhou looked at Yongzheng with the same face, but for some reason, he looked at Yongzheng like a black cat, full of bad ideas, and turned towards his imperial brother, pity him for fighting alone, " Don't worry about this Yongxin, I believe Yongbi will not let her get up early, and there will be time to go back after dinner, how could I miss my daughter-in-law offering tea."

Yongzhen tilted his head innocently, blinked, and looked at him in confusion, "Uncle Huang, you are wrong, why didn't Yongbi let Sister Qing'er get up early?"

Yongzhen understood at first, although he is not young now, but Qianlong didn't add anyone to him, so he pretended to ask curiously. up.

The queen mother gave him a dissatisfied look, and even Qianlong frowned, not to mention the queen, who had lowered her head now, wishing to leave quickly.

"Okay, Yongzheng, don't learn from Hongzhou, he doesn't have the emperor to worry about."

Yong Xin nodded obediently, "I know Huang Mama. My grandson will definitely learn from Huang Mama."

Hong Zhou looked at Yong Zhen complacently, his teeth itching with hatred, this unlucky boy, his wings are hardened, and he knew that he was facing the emperor, so he really loved him for nothing. "Brother Huang, Twelve's health doesn't look good. Why don't you let the younger brother take him back to the mansion? The younger brother and the concubine are also idle every day, so it would be better to take care of Yongzheng."

Qianlong didn't even give him a look, "No need, it's better to be in the palace, there is an imperial doctor to take care of him, and it will take a few days to heal up."

Hong Zhou supported his head and pretended to be heartbroken, "Oh... Poor Twelve, you have to endure this innocent disaster, and there is no place for redress." Qianlong felt a headache when he heard his provocative words. Tell him, did you bring Yong Xin back? As for holding grudges like this?Every time Qianlong confronted Hongzhou, he had a headache.
