After Qianlong left, the empress dowager ordered some trivial matters.Seeing that the Chinese New Year is still half a month away, all these things have popped up all at once. Let's just take the rewards of the palaces as an example, this is also a matter of learning.

"By the way, it's time for He Jing and Wan to come back. Has the queen made arrangements for the princess mansion?" Both of them were married to Mongolia on behalf of the Qing Dynasty, and the old lady felt very distressed when she came back this time.

"I have already sent people to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to urge it several times, but right now this matter is piled up together, and there may be a rush over there, and no letter of approval has arrived yet."

The old queen mother who said this was not very happy, the two princesses came back with their foreheads, what would it look like if they didn't even have a place to live after they came back?

"This Wei Qingtai is too good at handling things, can't you tell which is more important?" The old queen immediately sent her confidant Nanny Gui to urge her, "The return of the princess to court is a major event, so we can't be careless. "

"Oh, that's right." The old queen seems to have thought of something again, "This time the general election, the queen must not forget to pay attention to this point to Yongrong and Yongxuan, especially Yongrong! This pure concubine... hey, Concubine Chun looks like she's going to be in trouble, and she should find a girl for Yong Rong to help out when she encounters such a thing."

Concubine Chun has been ill for several days, and has not come to the Palace of Compassion and Peace for several days, and the conclusions given by the Imperial Hospital are not ideal.

"Concubine Chun's concubines will take care of them, but the empress, brother six...is there really no room for reincarnation?" As a mother, Chunhua can understand Concubine Chun's thoughts very well. Most of this illness was caused by the Sixth Brother.

Qianlong wanted to give Yongrong the heir to King Shenjing, which would stab Concubine Chun deeply. How could a mother be willing to give up her child to someone else?What's more, Yongrong is the elder brother of the emperor, so if he succeeds to the county king, won't he be born a little shorter than other brothers?

The queen mother sighed and shook her head, she was helpless!The king of Shenjing County is old and has no children, so he should inherit a child from the clan, but is it necessary for Qianlong to succeed his own son?Compared with the late emperor, his heirs are indeed not few and pitiful, but judging by the standards of an emperor, there are not many sons that need to be used.The eldest brother and the third elder brother were pissed to death by him, the fourth child had been adopted in the early years, and the fifth child was such a thing.Besides Yong Xuan, Yong Xing and Yong Xing are just children.

"Hey—the emperor is determined this time! Empress, go and help Ai's family to persuade Concubine Chun more, you want to open up everything." Even though she said so, the old queen mother also understood that this is unlikely.

The younger ones also listened quietly, occasionally offering a word or two of persuasion to the old lady.

After talking for a while, Chunhua saw that the old queen's face was a little tired, so she excused that there was still something to be done, and then she left.

After leaving the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Chunhua recalled what the old lady had said to him, and asked Lan Xin to take He Jing back to Kunning Palace first, and then took Nanny Rong and the others to Concubine Chun's place.

Pure concubine Xijing, Qianlong specially planted a piece of green bamboo in the front yard for her, it is really eye-catching from a distance.

The eunuch on duty in front of the door saw Chunhua and his party from a distance and rushed in to report. When Chunhua approached, the big maid in front of Concubine Chun was already waiting at the door.

"My maidservant greets the empress." As the head of the harem, the empress seldom visited other concubines' palaces, so Chunhua's visit surprised them for a while.

"I'm just here to see Concubine Chun, so go ahead and do your work."

Following the maid who led the way into Concubine Chun's bedroom, Chunhua could smell the smell of medicine from afar.It is not strong, but it lingers in the entire Zhongcui Palace for a long time.

"What did the imperial doctor say?" Chunhua asked about Concubine Chun's condition. Although she asked like this, Chunhua could guess a little bit.Imperial physicians never seek meritorious deeds in their treatment of diseases, so they are naturally cautious in using medicines. A large part of the procrastination of Chunfei's illness for so long is due to the fact that the roots of the disease left behind in the past have not been cleaned up. It was sent out at once.

"The imperial doctor told the empress to relax, but...the empress is suffering..." Tingzhu, the eldest palace maid in front of the concubine Chun, was brought in by the concubine Chun from the mansion, so she was naturally close to her.While speaking, Ting Zhu's voice was choked with sobs, and his eyes were also red.

After entering the inner room, Chunhua saw Concubine Chun struggling to get up from the bed after the maids opened the curtain, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up and help your empress to lie down, Concubine Chun doesn't need to be polite, just lie down. "

"Then thank the empress for your kindness." Concubine Chun didn't insist anymore, she knew her body very well, she couldn't bear this kind of tossing about saluting, but it's not good if Chunhua didn't say something to her It shows that as long as you are still in this palace for a day, you still have to abide by the rules.Concubine Chun was able to climb to this position because she knew what she should do when.

Chunhua asked someone to move a chair to sit beside Concubine Chun's bed, and looked straight at the pale woman on the bed.

To be honest, Concubine Chun is not considered beautiful, but there is a bit of gentleness between her brows, and she is also extremely tolerant on weekdays. Qianlong probably enjoyed her considerate care, so her Love has never stopped.

If she married into an ordinary family, she should be happier than now, right?

"I just went to pay my respects to Lafayette, and mentioned Yong Rong's marriage, do you have any suggestions from Concubine Chun?"

Concubine Chun moved her body, and after a moment of silence, she said: "Everything...is up to the empress."

Concubine Chun was a little surprised by the appearance of this appointment, she frowned and ordered to the left and right: "You step back first."

Ting Zhu saw that the concubine Chun hadn't changed, so he led the maids to retreat.It wasn't until they closed the door that Chunhua said slowly: "You have done what you shouldn't have done, but why are you doing it now? What are you doing for nothing?"

Concubine Chun's breathing was stagnant, she did the poisoning very covertly, even the old queen did not find out the slightest bit, but she didn't want the queen to know.

"I really can't hide it from you, empress." Concubine Chun was quite calm, she was not afraid that the empress would publicize it, since the empress did not say it before, it meant that the empress did not intend to publicize it.As for what benefits the queen wants to seek from her?Then she can only admit it.

"I didn't expect you to be able to win over Lingfei's people. No one in this palace should be underestimated." Lingfei has traveled a lot this night, so she is naturally extremely cautious. This time she will be tricked. , Chunhua also thought for a long time before he understood.I'm afraid that the people around her betrayed her, and those who have access to her meals must be her most trusted people.

Concubine Chun closed her eyes and lay quietly for a while, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, she said sarcastically: "It's all about each other, wouldn't she like me to reciprocate if she can get in my palace? She treats my emperor like that... She should have thought that one day I would have revenge. She couldn't have a son herself, but she wanted to harm my son! If I wasn't in a hurry, why would I bother to do such a sinful thing!"

"It's just... let the Empress suffer this innocent disaster for nothing." Concubine Chun only wanted to make Concubine Ling feel uncomfortable, and didn't intend to drag the Empress into trouble. Grass removes obstacles?

Chunhua didn't care about this point, if Concubine Ling didn't bite back, this matter would have nothing to do with her.

Everyone thinks that the queen is stupid, but they don't know that she is the one who sees the most clearly.Concubine Chun laughed at herself, and said about others, didn't she also ignorantly think that the queen is useless?Who would have thought that the queen is the one with the deepest hiding place.

"The concubine has nothing to ask for. Although Hejia married into the Fucha family, this child has been stubborn since he was a child, and Yongrong... I am really afraid that he will be overwhelmed by this succession." As a mother, the most worried They are still their own children.

Chunhua just smiled and said nothing, she is not a kind person, and she would not casually agree to such thankless things.Besides, she didn't want Concubine Chun to die. The way of restraint in the harem is very important. Among the four concubines, Concubine Shu is not liked by Qianlong, and Concubine Jia is also like that. spoiled.

Chunhua mentioned many times that her children only hoped to arouse Concubine Chun's desire to survive, but unexpectedly, her persuasion was in vain.But after two days of effort, Concubine Chun finally left.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, after all, she is only a concubine, not yet at the point of national mourning, and the funeral of Concubine Chun has to be put on hold for the time being, and will be handled separately in the coming year.

A mourning hall was set up in Zhongcui Palace, except for Yong Rong and He Jia who came to mourn their mother and concubine sincerely, the rest of the palaces were secretive, at most it was just pretending to go through the motions, after all, everyone I don't want to get any bad luck at this time.

Concubine Chun's death, apart from her children, the only one who was really sad for her was Qianlong. Chunhua only knew that he stayed with the two children until late that night, and left to prepare for the morning court near Yinshi.Chunhua didn't know how to comment on this. If Qianlong really loved her, why did he want to inherit her child?Even the death of Concubine Chun couldn't change his mind.

This is also what Chunhua can't understand the most, but it really doesn't make sense to think about it now.

That is, on the third day after Concubine Chun's death, He Jia found Chunhua with a generous gift.Those are all the connections that Concubine Chun has built up in the palace over the years, including the eyeliner she arranged in each palace, even the Compassionate Ning Palace has her eyeliner.Of course, Chunhua is no exception here.

Closing the roster, Chunhua looked at He Jia who was sitting at the bottom, "I will do what I promised, and this great gift from your mother and concubine makes me a little scared."

"He Jia himself doesn't dare to trouble the Queen Mother, but Yong Rong..."

Raising his hand to signal He Jia to stop for now, Chunhua smiled inscrutablely, and said, "You still have to ask Lafayette for this matter."

He Jiaben also had the mentality of giving it a try, and Yuan didn't expect the queen to really help her, but seeing Yongrong sinking day by day was really unbearable, coupled with the entrustment of Concubine Chun before she died This happened once.

She also didn't expect that the queen really showed her a clear way.
