[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

Shuwan is complacently narcissistic, wishing she could immediately take a selfie in the mirror and admire her peerless face.

The fourth elder brother felt that he had been deceived.

"You were not like this when you first got married."

At that time, Shuwan was delicate, soft and sweet, she would anxiously ask Si elder brother if she liked her makeup, and said that the best looks were only for Si elder brother to see.

Shuwan squinted at him, as if looking at an ignorant child.

"When we first got married, of course I had to pretend! Now that we are an old married couple, why should we pretend?"

Four elder brothers:  …

Shuwan clapped her hands and asked people to serve the dishes. She smiled at the fourth elder brother: "Master, today's lunch is all your favorite dishes. The decorations in the room are also arranged according to your preferences. Not only are they elegant, but also expensive. They are all What about antiques! You have to cherish my thanks!"

The fourth elder brother asked back: "What if I don't cherish it?"

Shuwan answered him very calmly, "It doesn't matter if you don't cherish it, but my gratitude is very short, only for a short time at noon. If you don't cherish it, it will be gone at night."

Shuwan casually picked up a gourd bottle from the Wanli Dynasty and hugged it in her arms, "I'll put this away when you go to school. This thing is so expensive, it won't be good if it breaks here. "

The fourth elder brother squeezed Shuwan's face angrily, "Stingy! See how I deal with you when I come back at night!"

Shuwan is not afraid of him!What he said just meant that there was a rich nightlife at night.

Heh, who's afraid of the nightlife?

When the steaming food was served, Shuwan scooped a bowl of soup for the fourth elder brother first.

"Tomorrow the new nanny will arrive, and Nanny Ning will be returning to Yonghe Palace."

The fourth elder brother took the soup bowl, "You can decide this matter yourself, don't ask me."

Shuwan wanted to kick him, like a shopkeeper who threw his hands away.

Shuwan said: "I'm thinking about whether to keep Nanny Ning. She is a seasoned woman, and she stays at Elder Brother's place, so Emiang can rest assured."

The fourth elder brother looked at her with a half-smile, "Are you sincerely wanting Nanny Ning to stay, or are you afraid that she will go back and sue you?"

Shuwan giggled guiltyly, "Look at what you said, I am a person who cherishes talents very much. I let Nanny Ning stay because I admire her ability!"

The fourth elder brother looked at her with a smile, as if saying, you make it up, you continue to make it up.

Shuwan couldn't pretend anymore, "Okay! Okay! I...I'm a little afraid that she will go back and sue me."

After thinking about it, she added: "But I'm only a little scared!"

In fact, Shuwan was not only afraid that Nanny Ning would sue her, but she didn't dare to let Nanny Ning appear in front of Concubine De.

When Nanny Ning first came to elder brother's office, her skin was rosy and shiny, but now her cheeks are sunken like refugees.

Is it easy for the concubine de concubine to raise a fat and decent nanny?Seeing Nurse Ning's dry and skinny appearance, she was furious!

Shuwan didn't dare to let Nanny Ning go back, she was afraid of making her mother-in-law faint out of anger, she was not the kind of wicked daughter-in-law who would not be filial to her mother-in-law.

The fourth elder brother didn't care much about Nanny Ning's going or staying. He put all his energy outside, and he didn't bother to worry about family affairs.

"If you think Nanny Ning is good, then let her stay. Just be careful when employing people, and don't let her talk about the things in the yard outside."

Fourth elder brother doesn't want other people's eyeliner on his territory, not even the eyeliner of his own mother.

Shuwan raised her hand to assure, "Don't worry! I will definitely let Nanny Ning stay willingly!"

A little maid came into the room and put down two plates of desserts, and Shuwan moved one of the plates to the fourth elder brother.

"This plate of sweet-scented osmanthus honey yam cake is not very sweet. After you finish your meal, you can eat two more pieces of this. It's a good time to eat this at this time of the year, to replenish your energy."

The fourth elder brother gave Shuwan two pieces, "You eat too."

The little maid went out after delivering the dishes. She put the tray back in the waiter, and seeing that no one noticed her, she walked quickly to the backyard.

She ran to Nanny Ning's residence and knocked on the door six times without haste.

Nanny Ning quickly opened the door and let the little maid in.

"It's not too early or too late, why are you here? Has anyone seen you?"

The little palace maid hurriedly said: "Don't worry, mammy, everyone is serving the master to eat at this time, and no one is paying attention to me. When I just served the dishes, I heard Fujin say that mammy should stay willingly. I don't know this What do you mean, but it is related to the future of the mother, I dare not delay, come out from Fujin, I will immediately report to you."

Nanny Ning just felt that a basin of cold water was poured over her head, cooling her heart.

Fujin is so vicious, isn't she quiet enough these days?Fujin still refused to let her go.

Nanny Ning took out an exquisite pouch and stuffed two ingots of silver into it.She handed the purse to the little maid, thanking her for coming to inform her.

The little maid was very happy to receive the purse, "Thank you, Ma'am, I should go back, after a while, elder brother Fujin finishes eating, and I have to clean up the dishes!"

Nurse Ning smiled and said, "I know you are busy, so I won't keep you. If there is any other news from Fujin..."

The little palace maid held her purse and said positively: "I will definitely report it to the nanny in time!"

The little maid came quietly and left quietly.

Nanny Ning sat at the table, staring at the half-eaten meal in a daze.

When she came to elder brother's office, she was full of ambitions, and she never thought that today would happen.

Other Fujins are polite to the nanny that her mother-in-law rewarded, but Si Fujin is good, she really treats herself like a slave.

Nanny Ning hasn't had such hard work for many years. Now she is so tired that her waist is sore and her back hurts. Her biggest wish is to have a good sleep.

Nanny Ning didn't dare to stay here, she was afraid of dying in elder brother's place.Recently, she has tinnitus and dizziness, and she is very afraid that one day she will faint and cannot be rescued.

But this matter is very difficult, Si Fujin is the master, she is a slave, how can her thin arms break Fujin's thigh.

If he wanted to escape Fujin's clutches, he still had to rely on the concubine Defei.

Nurse Ning spread out paper and rubbed ink, and wrote a sincere letter to Concubine De.

In the letter, she couldn't just say that she didn't want to stay in Elder Brother's house anymore, she could only say that she missed the old master, and when she heard that she could return to Yonghe Palace, she was excited and eager, wishing to fly back to Empress Defei immediately.

After finishing writing the letter, Madam Ning asked someone to deliver the letter.

Back in the backyard, Nanny Ning still couldn't calm down, she always felt that this was not safe enough.

If Fujin wants to keep her, he must talk to her. It seems not good for her to refuse Fujin face to face.It's better to hide for a while, and when the nanny arrives tomorrow, she will leave immediately.

Nanny Ning asked Song Gege for leave, "Little Gege's face cream is almost used up, so I will go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some back."

Song Gege hurriedly said: "You don't need to bother Madam about such a trivial matter, I'll just send a little maid to go."

Nanny Ning: "..."

Song Gege also realized that Nanny Ning didn't want to run errands to get things, but she wanted to go out for a walk.

Song Gege smiled embarrassingly, "Then, then I'll trouble Mommy to go there. Mommy has been working hard recently, so you don't have to rush back, just hang out more often."

Nanny Ning thanked Song Gege for her kindness, and not long after she left, Xia Er came to look for her.

Nanny Ning was nowhere to be found in the backyard, Xia'er found out about Nanny Ning's whereabouts from Song Gege, and went back to report to Shuwan.

"I heard from Song Gege that Nanny Ning has been working hard these days. She asked Nanny Ning to go to the House of Internal Affairs to pick up some things and go out for a walk."

Shuwan was thoughtful, "What a coincidence! I managed to find her once, but she wasn't here."

Xia'er smiled and said, "Mother Ning will be returning to Yonghe Palace tomorrow, it's normal for Song Gege to let her go out to relax in order to sell well."

Shuwan sneered, "Based on Song Gege's brain, does she have such a heart?"

Xia Er concludes, this makes sense.

Bingxiang brought Shuwan a cup of tea, "Speaking of Yue Yue, Song Gege is really not smart. Ning Nanny looked at Little Gege boiled in neither white nor black, she was almost out of shape, Song Gege didn't know Get someone to replace you."

Xia'er smiled and said: "It's true that Song Gege is not smart, and it's also true that Nanny Ning is dedicated to her duties. Chun'er and I have heard about Nanny Ning in Yonghe Palace before. She is very serious in her work, so Concubine De The empress especially values ​​her."

Shuwan thought in her heart: Knowing that she is serious about things, then she cannot let her go.

She smiled at Xia'er: "Go and block the door, and if you see Ning Momo coming back, even if you tie her up, you have to tie her back to me."

Xia'er smiled, "Yes, the servant is going to arrest people now!"

Poor Nanny Ning wandered outside all afternoon. She counted the time and guessed that the fourth elder brother had almost returned home, so she returned to the elder brother's place.

The fourth elder brother is back, and Fujin has to take care of the elder brother, so there should be no time for her!

As soon as she stepped into the door of elder brother's office, Xia Er rushed out from the dark and grabbed her.

"Mommy really kept me waiting, Fujin invites you to come over! Mommy will come with me!"

Nanny Ning was taken aback, she broke away from Xia'er's hand, and pitifully made excuses.

"No, no, little Gege is waiting for someone to serve!"

Xia'er smiled and said: "Don't lie to me, mama, you will be away all afternoon, and Little Gege will be fine. Come with me quickly! Fujin said, even if it is tied, I will tie you up!"

Mother Ning's face turned blue when she heard this, Xia'er quickly added: "Don't be afraid, Mother, it's a good thing that Fujin has found you!"

Nanny Ning was in a bad mood, since she fell into Fujin's hands, how could anything good happen?

When Shuwan heard that Nanny Ning was back, she immediately left Si elder brother to see her.

The fourth elder brother almost doubted his charm, could it be that he is no longer as good as a nanny?

Xia'er took Nanny Ning to the east wing to wait, Shuwan soon arrived, Xia'er brought tea and left, leaving only Shuwan and Nanny Ning in the room.

Although Nanny Ning tried her best to endure, there was still a hint of sadness in her expression.

Shuwan couldn't help laughing, this is how she escapes, she chases, she can't fly!

Hearing Shuwan's laughter, Nanny Ning became even more uncomfortable.

For her, this may be the devil's laughter, the beginning of bad luck!

Shuwan smiled and asked, "Didn't Mammy have a hard time escaping today?"

Sister Ning put on a smile on her face, "What does Fujin mean by that? I don't understand."

Shuwan pushed the teacup aside, she put away her playful look, "I'm already acquainted with Mammy, I'm very busy, and I don't have time to go around in circles with Mammy. I want you to stay, and I'll stay with you from now on brother office."

Nanny Ning was bitter, thinking about how to refuse it would be appropriate.

Shuwan said: "Don't rush to refuse, Mammy, I sincerely ask Mammy to stay. As you can see, there are no older nanny in the Fourth Elder Brother's Court. We are all young and inexperienced in many things."

Nanny Ning smiled and said: "Fu Jin is short of people, just go to the House of Internal Affairs to make up for it. The servant has followed the concubine Defei for many years, and he is reluctant to leave the old master. I hope Fujin can understand."

"It seems that Mammy doesn't believe me!"

Shuwan thought for a while and said: "It's better to spend a huge sum of money to ask for warmth. But it's not necessarily rare for a mother to give a reward or a monthly increase in money. The condition I offer to my mother is that I will give you a pension."

Nanny Ning leaned forward unconsciously with her straight back, "Retirement?"

"Yes! In two or three years, the fourth elder brother will leave the palace to build a mansion, and the nanny will leave the palace with us. When you are 55 years old, I will buy you a house and land, and let you settle down outside the palace. At that time, you will not have to wait on others How do you feel about hiring two maids to take care of your food and living, and adopting an adopted son to take care of you until the end of your life?"

Nanny Ning was crazily moved, this was simply the life she dreamed of.

What are the mothers and eunuchs in the palace most afraid of?I am most afraid of being old and homeless.

When the body is strong, everything is easy to say.If one day they get sick, paralyzed, and kicked out of the palace, they have nowhere to go, let alone take care of them.

Some nuns are old and leave the palace to work as foster nuns in wealthy families.It looks decent, but how can you feel as happy as being in charge of your own family?If it is not impossible, who would like to serve others!

Shuwan said again: "Nurse, don't worry about me lying to you, I'm not that shameless. The conflict between you and me is actually the conflict between me and the concubine's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. If the nanny becomes mine, we won't be so shameless." Contradictory, right?"

Nanny Ning was bewildered by Shuwan, she actually felt that this made sense, and completely forgot how Shuwan bullied her before.

After showing her sincerity to Nanny Ning, Shuwan began to play the emotional card again.

"The fourth elder brother is the first child born to Empress Defei, and the first one is always a little special. The empress has always been thinking about elder brother, but she is reserved and introverted, and I don't know how to express it. You are a person trusted by Empress Defei. With you here, Empress Concubine De can feel at ease, this can be regarded as sharing her worries."

Nanny Ning was in a turbulent mood, thinking that this was a big pie that fell from the sky, if you missed it, there would be no more.Moreover, staying with the fourth elder brother can be considered as a master-servant friendship between her and the concubine De, not a betrayal.

She nodded repeatedly and agreed, "For Fujin's kindness, the servant has nothing to repay, so I can only serve Fujin and elder brother with all my heart."

She thought of the letter she had sent, and felt a little worried again.

"It's just... Will the Concubine De concubine let people go?"

Shuwan let her relax, "Please greet me tomorrow, I'll tell Empress Defei."

Back in the room, the fourth elder brother asked her angrily, "Are you finally willing to come back?"

Shuwan sighed: "I've wanted to come back a long time ago, but it's really hard to capture the heart of a middle-aged woman!"

The fourth elder brother took off his clothes, held a book and leaned against the bed, pretending to study.

Shuwan took off her makeup, removed her hair, washed her face, and put on cream. She worked for a long time before she climbed into bed.

The fourth elder brother couldn't wait any longer, he threw away the book, rushed over to hug Shuwan and wanted to kiss her.

"How dare you neglect me, let's see how I deal with you!"

Shuwan pushed him away with a straight face, "Not tonight! I have to think about how to capture the heart of another middle-aged woman!"

The fourth elder brother pinched Shuwan's upturned little nose, "Oh, Si Fujin's taste is different, and he actually likes middle-aged women."

Shuwan: "That's right! Tomorrow I'm going to please Er Niang, shouldn't I like her?"

Now the fourth elder brother had nothing to say, he let go of Shuwan's nose, turned over and lay back.

Shuwan said meanly: "If you can make my mother like you after making out with elder brother, then I can make out with elder brother all night long!"

The fourth elder brother turned back and looked at her a little excitedly.

Shuwan added slowly: "It's a pity, brother doesn't have such a role, so I'm sorry!"

Shuwan pulled the quilt up to her neck and covered herself tightly.

With a smile on her lips, she closed her eyes peacefully.

The fourth elder brother lifted the quilt and got in, "It's against you, I'll let you see if I'm useful!"

There was a vague sound of laughter coming from the quilt, and after a while the sound of laughter gradually died down, and the bed curtain covered everything.

The next day Shuwan got up early to say hello, earlier than ever before.

When they arrived at the Yonghe Palace, the Concubine De concubine still had a bad face when she saw her.

She has dressed and put on makeup, and the maid is putting jewelry on her.

Concubine De took out a turquoise ring and put it on her finger.

"It's really rare that Sifujin came so early."

Shuwan carefully accompanied her with a smile, "Forgive me, Er Niang, it was Shuwan who was ignorant before."

"Oh, Sifujin's words are serious, how can you be guilty?"

The maid brought a plate of flowers and stopped in front of Shuwan, and the maid who was serving Concubine De's makeup stepped aside.

Shuwan looked left and right, and thought for a long time before realizing that Concubine De wanted her to serve the hairpin.

Shuwan is speechless, it's just such a trivial matter, just say no, let her guess for a long time!

Besides, the court lady is no better at doing things than her. You have the skills to play riddles, and the whole plate of flowers has been inserted.

Shuwan picked up a dark red peony, "Emiang, which one do you like? How about this peony? I think it matches your purple clothes very well."

Concubine De curled her lips with a look of contempt, and after a while, she nodded slightly.

"Forget it, just this one!"

It seems that she made a great sacrifice in order to save Shuwan's face.

Shuwan pinched the flower with one hand, pressed Concubine De's head with the other, and pressed Concubine De's head hard with her hand.

Concubine De hissed, and turned her head to stare at Shuwan, "Idiot! You can't even do this little thing well!"

Shuwan took two steps back in fright, "Er Niang, calm down, I, I will pull it off and put it on for you again."

Concubine De waved her to stay away from her, she didn't dare to order this daughter-in-law anymore.The fourth elder brother is really right, she is too clumsy.

The maid stepped forward to pick off the flowers, brushed Concubine De's hair, and reselected a hairpin to put on Concubine De's bun.

Shuwan looked at Concubine De's expression, and said cautiously: "Emiang, my daughter-in-law has a merciless request."

Concubine De sneered, "So I asked for something, no wonder! Please come so early today."

Shuwan smiled shyly, "Emiang, I know I was wrong, and I will come earlier in the future to help Emiang wash up."

Concubine De quickly stopped her, "No need, it's fine as before!"

She was afraid that she would be served by Shuwan to death.

Shuwan didn't entangle with her about sooner or later, she mentioned Nurse Ning.

"Mother Ning is worthy of being a person who came out of the Yonghe Palace. She speaks and acts in a very orderly manner. My daughter-in-law has benefited a lot from watching her act. I..."

Concubine De interrupted her, "Is it you or Song Gege who have benefited a lot? Isn't Nanny Ning serving at Song Gege's place?"

"All of them! All of them! I have benefited, Song Gege has benefited, and everyone in our yard has benefited! Er Niang, you love our juniors the most. Can you give up and let Nanny Ning stay in our yard? ?”

Concubine De didn't expect that Shuwan would take care of her important people. Yesterday she received a letter from Nanny Ning, which said between the lines that she wanted to go back to Yonghe Palace.It seemed that she didn't get along very well with Si Fujin.

"What is Nanny Ning doing in your yard? Still working as a nanny?"

Shuwan quickly denied, "Of course not! Nurse Ning stays by my side, reminds me to do things, and helps me manage the maids and eunuchs below."

In order to show her sincerity, she added: "In the future, Nurse Ning will receive a share of money from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and I will send her another copy to pay from my monthly bill."

Concubine De thinks this is fine, Shuwan is not very reliable, she can rest assured that Nanny Ning stays with the fourth elder brother.She can also know in time what happened with the fourth elder brother.

From another point of view, Shuwan's flattery with her also means that she is submissive to herself.

The concubine De has been tricked by the fourth elder brother, so she no longer embarrasses Shuwan, and does not need her to raise her concubine son and concubine daughter.Shuwan reciprocated, leaving Nanny Ning behind.

Both of them took a step back, which was a reconciliation.

Thinking of this, Concubine De felt much more at ease.The daughter-in-law still has some merits, and knows that she can't just stick to her mother-in-law.

"It's hard for me to refuse you to beg me so sincerely. What does Nanny Ning mean? Is she willing to follow you? She is an old man who has been with me for decades. I have to consider her thoughts."

Shuwan thought to herself: Decades?How old are you!It's so nonsense!

She knew that Concubine De was letting go, and quickly said with a smile: "I asked Nanny Ning in advance, she is willing, but I just don't want to part with Er Niang."

Concubine De sighed: "Since she is willing, then follow your wish! You children! You just don't see that I have good things, and you want to get everything back."

Shuwan smiled flatteringly, "It's not because Er Niang's Feng Shui is good here, but the people who come out of your side are very good, one is worth ten!"

Concubine De didn't like Shuwan's sweet talk, "Slick tongue! I'll put the ugliness first, Nanny Ning gave it to you, you and the fourth elder brother should treat her kindly. If you treat her badly, I won't forgive you! "

Shuwan raised her hand to assure, "Emother, don't worry, I will definitely treat Nanny Ning well, and I will never bully her! Brother Si will not bully her either, I will protect Nanny Ning!"

Concubine De thought in her heart: Of course I am relieved of my son, but you are the one I am most worried about!

She stretched out her arm for Shuwan to help her, "Let's go! Don't dawdle, it's time to greet the Queen Mother."

Shuwan obsequiously stepped forward to hold Concubine De's arm, she scolded her mother-in-law for pretending to be a criminal.

Middle-aged women are really hard to please!
