Empress Huaishu of the Harem

Chapter 10 Prince Qi's Mansion (Signed and updated)

Brother Huang's move made me really unexpected, is he really humiliating the emperor concubine like this?Seeing He He go away after suffering all kinds of humiliation, my heart is relieved.The mother and concubine covered her face with her sleeves, and said softly: "Harmony is your own fault. Don't be soft-hearted and let others see. Don't you know that she caused trouble and angered the bear, and almost killed the young emperor. Cheng Yi also It's just to prevent the emperor from softening his heart."

Before I could answer, I heard people outside say: "His Royal Highness King Qinghe sees you."

I saw Brother Sanhuang wearing a moon white ramie shirt and buckskin boots on his feet.The face is covered with jade white, and the figure is handsome and imposing.Although he is descended from the lineage of the Sixth Emperor's Uncle, he is the son of the Empress Dowager, whoever dares to treat him as an offshoot of the clan, before he came to the front, they all stood up to salute.The three emperor brothers all clapped their hands to answer.

I also liked the third brother very much since I was a child. Although he is a bit out of Beijing, he is actually very easy-going and will not give people a sense of oppression.I wanted to say something when he came over, but when I saw who was following him, I lost my interest all of a sudden.

But the Queen Mother was very happy to see her, and said with a smile: "Han'er, Zhiping, why are you here together this time?"

Zhen Zhiping also dressed up very energetically. He has always been favored by the Queen Mother, so he felt at ease, and replied: "I didn't get the permission of my lord, so I couldn't come to see the Queen Mother. But when the Holy One summoned him, he didn't dare to celebrate his birthday empty-handed, and he was in a dilemma. See, I happened to meet my third cousin, the third king, so I took advantage of his birthday gift and came together."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "What a big gift, it can take care of two people."

King Qinghe waved his hand, and Zhiping lifted the red cloth on the basket, held up the basket and said: "The Empress Dowager is an example, and all things cannot be matched, so I present it with flat peaches, and wish the Empress Dowager longevity than Queen Mother Xi." Kneel down with King Qinghe, shouting for a thousand years.

The emperor's brother was very interesting, and wondered: "In the end, the third brother really stole the fairy peach from the queen mother?"

Xue Po said: "Brother Huang, don't you know after looking at it?" After saying that, she showed a sly smile, I looked at her puzzled, but she just motioned me to wait.

Brother Huang gave a signal, and Wu Changqing brought up the basket, and I saw it clearly, it really was a peach.It's just that peaches are ruddy in color and huge in size, about the size of a palm.This has never been seen before, and everyone can't help being amazed.

I couldn't help asking: "Brother Huang, this peach is so big, where did you find it?"

Yu Han said gently: "No wonder Huai Shu was surprised. In fact, I was shocked when I saw this flat peach in a manor in the suburbs of Beijing a year ago. I only found out after asking the owner carefully that this is a prisoner Research and development. That is to select more than ten peach trees, all of which must have luxuriant branches and leaves. When the peaches are just fruiting, peel the rings of that branch, and within a few months, those peaches will be huge and look like fairy things.Brother Wei heard it interesting, so I let him observe it carefully, and it really made sense, so I paid attention to it. "

After hearing this, the emperor brother also asked: "There really are such talents in farming, so why did they become criminals?"

Just as Yu Han was about to speak, the Queen Mother suddenly coughed and said, "Han'er's birthday gift is also appropriate, but it's too little."

Zhi Ping said: "There are quite a few, Empress Dowager. The melons and fruits are in season. The fresh ones are fresh." After a pause, he said with a smile: "I am already salivating on the way, so please give me a blessing from the Empress Dowager."

He was younger, and his jokes seemed sincere and cute.Not only the queen mother smiled, but even Marquis Weiyuan didn't speak out to reprimand her.The queen mother said: "Shoutao is auspicious, let's eat together."

Concubine Demu said with a smile: "This nephew of the Empress Dowager is really likable. Now, now that he is young, he has to be a little duke. His future will be limitless."

Hearing that my heart was not angry, I blurted out: "There is no limit. A man should use martial arts to govern the country and stand in the world. Blindly flattering the emperor and clinging to the nepotism. This is not the style of a dude."

Concubine Mu didn't hear well, so she yelled in a low voice: "Presumptuous, you've lost your mind." Only then did I find Concubine Demu, Concubine Zhenmu and Second Brother all looked at me in surprise.Realizing that the words just now were a bit harsh, but the words had already been spoken, I simply stopped thinking about them, and drank the inula flower soup in silence, and stopped talking.

Only Xue Po said: "It doesn't sound like what Sixth Sister said. But it's really fun to say." She dragged her cheek with her left hand, as if recalling: "My cousin was really naughty when he was young, and he always made my sister cry. No wonder You bear a grudge."

I was a little ashamed, and said: "What are you holding grudges for? Don't talk nonsense. It's like I'm narrow-minded."

Xue Po wanted to say again, the palace servants had already placed Shoutao on her case, and all eyes were taken away by this peach fruit.

People like us are destined to be well-clothed and well-fed when we are born, but relatively we must follow the rules.Always set an example for the people of the world.For example, in food, although it is exquisite, we only know what it looks like in many things.

I looked up and saw Brother Sanhuang was chatting and laughing happily with everyone, perhaps only he who was born as an heir was missing a shackle.

On April [-]th of the eighth year of Zhengzhang, the first draft of Zhengzhang Dynasty, which has been preparing for many years, officially began.The emperor's brother is young and has no heirs or heirs.Many officials and officials rushed to send their daughters into the palace.It is said that in just a few days, the prices of rouge, gouache, silk and satin in the capital have risen several times.

In addition to these basic homework, many relatives of meritorious officials came to the Sanshou Palace one after another to seek relatives and talk about friendship, and wanted to use the concubine's connections to let their daughters take a shortcut.The mother and concubine were born in the common people, but she was clean.But the other concubines were bothered too much.Especially Concubine De Mu, who said angrily several times: "It's been so many years that I don't know whether to live or die. Now I almost broke the door of Longevity Palace. My aunt and elder sister called me to be close. I really miss the demon mirror hanging open the door, let people see their hearts."

In the end, it was Concubine Duan who persuaded: "Once elected to the king's side, the family has been honored for several generations. You and my family have tasted the sweetness. How can you not sharpen your head and squeeze in. Why do you bother with these idle things?" angry."

Concubine Demu sneered, and said: "Anyone who has the ability to squeeze in, anyway, I have no ability to take care of it."

To be honest, this draft is in full swing, Empress Dowager Feng Yu puts virtue and ability first, but who doesn't know how to serve others if she wants to be a concubine?Therefore, there are always a steady stream of gossips coming in. Someone's daughter misused the secret recipe for whitening, and as a result, she had a rash on her face; the daughter of a family fainted in the check-in room in order to lose weight and go on a diet.

In the scorching summer, I hide in the house and don't want to go out, but thanks to these gossips to pass the time.But on the other hand, some news came intermittently that Prince Qi's son's illness was getting worse, which made people feel very worried.

At the beginning of June, the reelection ended, and there were more than 20 show girls left this time.On the same day, the news of Prince Qi's son's death came, Xue Po and I were paying respects to the Empress Dowager. Eunuch Yun came trotting all the way, and before he finished greeting, he said: "Queen Mother, Prince Qi's son is gone, Concubine Xu fainted from crying. gone."

The empress dowager had weathered the storm for a long time, she was also stunned when she asked, and she said after a long time: "When did it happen?"

"Back to the queen mother, the little prince died at noon. Now the house has been arranged."

The queen mother sighed again, "Forget it, go and tell the emperor, after all, he is the eldest grandson of the late emperor. Don't be careless about the future."

Xue Po also said: "Last year in Shangyuan, he was still smiling and calling him little aunt, pestering me to feed him glutinous rice cakes, but now..."

After such a thing happened, no one was in the mood to chat anymore and the queen mother ordered us to leave.After I went back, I told my concubine, she couldn’t help feeling sad, and said, “King Qi and concubine Wang are over [-] years old, and they are the only son under their knees. After this time, the concubine doesn’t know how to live her life?” Then she seemed to suddenly think As if getting up, he asked: "Qi Prince's mansion is in a funeral, have you heard how their deputy leader Lu is doing?"

I couldn't react for a while, so I asked, "Who is the concubine mother talking about?"

In the blink of an eye, the concubine mother's eyes flashed a trace of emotion that I couldn't understand.She averted my eyes and was quiet, making me wonder if I had heard it wrong.But she said again: "General Lu used to be the escort of Pingyang Prince's Mansion. He met me. A few years ago, I heard that he had worked for Qi Prince's Mansion. I don't know how it is now?"

The mother and concubine rarely mentioned things in the palace, so I didn't think about it, and said: "I haven't heard of this daughter, but since she is your old friend, I just want to inquire about it in the future."

"No" Concubine Mu suddenly exclaimed, I trembled in fright, and quickly asked: "Concubine Mu, what's wrong with you?"

The mother and concubine's face was as pale as plain silk, and she forced a smile: "No, General Lu is in the palace and has military power, so we can't come and go. Zipei, you must listen to your mother and don't tell others, especially the queen mother, who knows ?"

To my mother and concubine, I naturally said yes, but I had some doubts in my heart.
