Yongzheng period

Can we live without it? "

"Come on, you can't say it!" Daiyu pursed her lips and said cheerfully, "What reason is he, you always have something to wait for!" Then she raised her voice and said, "Zicuckoo, hurry up and take out my money box." Come to the nobleman? If she is thinking about it, she will wave her hand sooner or later, and all the money in the box will follow!"

"Yes, ma'am." Zijuan really responded, and while taking the money, said solemnly, "Your honor thinks, there are as many as there are."

After hearing this, Yunhui couldn't hold her hands any longer, she smiled and scratched Zijuan's itch, "What a clever girl! Why am I so stingy?! Let me teach you a lesson!"

After playing around for a while, Daiyu ordered people to remove the melon and fruit tea and serve some pastries.In a blink of an eye, she saw Yunhui clasping the table in a daze, and Daiyu couldn't help sighing, "What's the matter? How many times have you lost your mind today?

Yunhui hesitated for a while, and finally said, "Since you became a concubine, why haven't you seen you and your nobleman?"

"I don't know what troubled you, so it was this." Daiyu smiled, "It's not that you don't know Yingchun's temperament, but you avoid it most. Concubine Xin is the master, so she only knows her heart Take care of it, that's fine."

"But didn't she get the emperor's commendation from you when she accompanied Yuanmingyuan, so she was promoted?" Yun Hui looked puzzled.

She doesn't have a deep impression of Yingchun, she just thinks it's a dull person, but the nanny brought out from Jia's house in her palace is very shrewd at a glance, Yunhui is afraid that Daiyu will cherish the sisterhood with Yingchun For a moment, his heart softened and he turned against the Jia family's way.

Daiyu was taken aback when she heard the words, and then she reacted angrily and said, "Where did you think, I was the one who proposed to the emperor to accompany you, how could it be what you thought?" Daiyu turned and sighed again, " When Yingchun was in Jia's house, she was not welcome, and the servants secretly laughed at her as "two woods". Besides, the relationship between me and her is well known, and I am afraid that in some people's minds, she has long been classified as my Changchun Palace. The party is over, and I should help her out of reason and reason, so that she will not suffer from other people's schemes."

"That's the way it is, but I was wrong..." Yunhui breathed a sigh of relief, and said casually, "Speaking of which, I have always smelled a fresh fragrance when I entered your palace these few days. I didn't have it before. What did you change? New fruity fragrance?"

"Why have I ever loved those things?" Daiyu said, "It's just that the Empress sent a statue of Guanyin a few days ago. I asked the imperial doctor because of the fragrance on it. It was soaked in a small amount of cinnabar, because it was just to help It’s useful for sleeping, and I do feel more peaceful at night, so I didn’t care about it.”

"Empress?" Yun Hui couldn't help snorting, "Why is she giving this to you?" Then said narrowly, "Could it be that she, the empress, also likes to be a queen?"

"What about Hu Qin?" Daiyu said indifferently, "The Empress is also thinking about the emperor's heir, maybe she is worried that I am young, and I am afraid that my mood will be unstable because of the pregnancy of Concubine Xin and Mrs. appease."

On the other side, Yanxi Palace.

"Have you found out?"

"Yes." Yinxiu said respectfully.

"That's good." Concubine Xiang showed a smile that was sure to win, "Go and quietly buy some schisandra from outside the palace, grind it into powder, and find a way to pass it through the imperial hospital to Xiao Chengzi, the tea eunuch of Kunning Palace .”

After a pause, the concubine Xiang said slowly again, "Schisandra chinensis also has the effect of helping sleep. It just so happens that the palace heard that the empress has a headache recently and can't sleep at night, and the empress Hui is a little mentally ill because of the wind."

Yin Xiu understood, "That Xiaochengzi is Jiang Fuhai's apprentice, and he can be ranked in front of the empress. It's just that his luck has been a little bit bad recently, and he is afraid that he will be punished for gathering people to gamble."

"Once a person becomes rich, he doesn't want to go back to the miserable days before." Concubine Xiang said slowly, "This little Chengzi is also a loyal slave, but the Queen is always fair, I'm afraid she won't play favoritism for the people below."

"That's exactly the case," Yinxiu said, "so at such a time, he has to think about how to share the master's worries, so as to keep his position."

"Hmph, my palace has received all the 'favor' from the queen in the past," said the concubine Xiang word by word, "the queen has suffered from head wind for a long time, and Schisandra chinensis has the best effect on helping sleep. A heart."

Schisandra does help sleep, but it is incompatible with cinnabar, and the Avalokitesvara that the queen sent to Changchun Palace in order to run on Concubine Hui was soaked in the fragrance of cinnabar.And just because the empress had a bad head, the Schisandra chinensis extract in Kunning Palace has always been the most.

When she was pregnant with Wen Yi, the queen's black hands; when the Summer Palace was summer vacation, Wen Yi was deliberately made sick; privately gave the concubine contraceptive medicine; and - Xiaoding.

All these piles have to be settled one by one, and she, Cao Qinmo, wants Ulanara Yixiu, and she will never turn over!

Jiajia

It was rare for Jia Zheng to rest in the main room, so Mrs. Wang took the opportunity to talk about the Sun family.

"Third girl has also reached the age of marriage, how does the master think of the Sun family?"

"The Sun family?" Jia Zheng couldn't help frowning, dissatisfied, "Sun Shaozu is rampant, how can he be considered a good match for the three girls?"

"Master is wrong," Mrs. Wang said. "I think the ancestors of my two families are also family friends, and the Sun family is also a military commander. The young master of the Sun family is also in the Ministry of War. How can it be wrong? There are always villains in this world. That's all. Besides, the third girl has a strong temper and strong ideas, if she is assigned to a weak civil servant, it will not be beautiful if her wife's reputation of being strong is spread."

The official position has now become Jia Zheng's unbearable place, he was poked in a sore spot, and fell silent.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang made persistent efforts, "Furthermore, when the wife of the Sun family came to visit that day, she was very sincere when talking about the marriage. She said that if she could get Miss Jia to marry, she would prepare a dowry gift of forty levies. The third girl is only a concubine. Given such treatment, are you afraid that the girl will suffer in the past? Besides, if the Sun family becomes the in-laws of the Jia family, won’t my uncle also be able to help the master in the court?”

This last sentence moved Jia Zheng's heart, and he said, "You are Sanyatou's aunt, so you decide."

The next day Mrs. Wang called Tanchun, looked him up and down, and saw that he had slender shoulders and a thin waist, a long and tall figure, a duck-shaped face, handsome eyes and eyebrows, a vision of flying, a literary beauty, and forgetting the customs.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang nodded in satisfaction, stepped forward and pulled her to sit next to her, and said lovingly, "Although you are not my own, you grew up by my side. When I see you, you are no different from my own." gone."

Tanchun lowered his head when he heard the words, and said, "Mother treats me well."

"That's good," Mrs. Wang continued, "You have also reached the age of marriage. I discussed with your father last night and made an appointment. Good boy, you should listen first."

When Tanchun heard that it was a matter of marriage, he couldn't help but blush, feeling nervous and anxious, "Of course I listen to my mother."

Mrs. Wang became more and more satisfied, "A while ago, the descendants and grandchildren said that the two families are family friends, and Young Master Sun has an official position. His family background is well-matched, and the dowry gifts are generous. What do you think?"

【29】

Even Tanchun, who was still in the boudoir, had heard of Sun Shaozu's reputation: A while ago, the Jia family was down and down, and the Sun family couldn't wait to come forward to press for debts. One ear.If the servant's family style is like this, then what kind of virtue can the young master of the Sun family have!

Tan Chun sneered inwardly, but his face turned red, and he just bowed his head and remained silent.

Mrs. Wang only thought of her as a girl with thin skin and shyness, so she laughed again, "Yes, you must be embarrassed. Good boy, you don't need to say anything. When the Sun family comes, just follow me and Yes."

Tanchun still lowered his head and stirred the handkerchief, without saying a word.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang couldn't stop thinking about it. When she was a little hesitant, she smiled and said, "The young master of the Sun family has an official position. If you marry, you will be a serious 'official wife'. If you are up-to-date, If you give birth to a son and a half daughter, you will have a firm foothold." After finishing speaking, he pretended to sigh, "Although I consider you to be my own, but others may not treat you as your descendant. The Sun family showed their sincerity and made a big gift. You missed this opportunity, and it’s too late to regret it.”

Tanchun heard the words and knew that the way forward was set, sour in his heart, he reluctantly said, "Daughter's marriage is decided by parents."

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed when she heard that, and said with a smile, "My good boy, you can go back and make preparations, and I will take care of the rest."

Tanchun responded indiscriminately, got up and left, and when he returned to Qiushuangzhai, he didn't care about losing his composure, and finally cried bitterly.

The servant was scared out of his wits, and said anxiously, "What's wrong with the girl?! Why did you go to the wife's room and become like this!"

It happened that Aunt Zhao came to find Tanchun because of something. Seeing this scene and listening to Shi Shu's words, and then thinking about Zhao Guoji, she couldn't help but say something, "Didn't the girl like the wife most in the past? I don't know where the girl got it." Bullying, why are you crying in the house, but you don't see your wife or the uncle of that family coming to make decisions for the girl?"

After hearing this, Tanchun was struck by the central matter, saddened from his heart for a moment, and said with tears, "Why is it so, Auntie! As long as I am a man, I can go out, so I will leave early and start a career. I have a reason. I am a girl, so I don’t have a lot of words to say! It’s fine for my aunt to complain about me today. When I am forced to death, my aunt may not even have a place to complain about me. Already!"

Aunt Zhao said anxiously, "What nonsense are you talking about?! Who is trying to force you to death?!"——Although Tanchun refused to get close to her, she was pregnant and gave birth in October.

"What can you do if you know?" Tanchun choked up, "My wife wants to promise me to Sun Shaozu, and even the master agrees!"

When Aunt Zhao heard the words, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. She had seen the virtues of the people from the Sun family, so there was no way for Tanchun to survive in the past!He couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "What a normal person.
