The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 460
Concubine Nian gasped when she heard the words, her eyes made of water looked around in horror, then leaned closer to Nian Gengyao and whispered: "Brother, what do you mean the emperor is sending someone to monitor you?"

Nian Gengyao leaned back slightly, stared at her in surprise for a while, and finally clicked twice: "My sister is now a noble concubine, why is she still so timid? Watch me? I am loyal to the emperor, why do you want to watch me?"

"Then..." Concubine Nian's eyes were full of worry. Although she didn't get along well with this brother all the time, blood is thicker than water after all, not to mention that he earned such a high status for the Nian family. Concern endlessly.

"Hey." He sighed heavily as if he hated iron for being weak, and said in a contemptuous tone, "Fortunately, I let those girls marry with you, otherwise, with your temperament and brain, you will be tortured all day long." For bullying."

Concubine Nian's face blushed a little with shame because of these words, and the blush on her cheeks set off her pretty figure like a lotus flower.In just the blink of an eye, she is a bit more beautiful than before.

"Don't worry about me. I am loyal to the emperor, and the emperor naturally trusts me. I have sent people to track down those hidden guards, but according to the information I have so far, they are tracking down a person, who seems to be the emperor who sneaked into the house." The old man of the mansion."

"Old people?" Concubine Nian thought for a while, unable to figure out who those hidden guards were chasing after, because she entered the mansion late, and she didn't know all the entanglements between the previous few people.But since she wasn't spying on her brother, she could breathe a sigh of relief.

"Brother, don't pursue it. If those hidden guards report it to the emperor, wouldn't my brother be suspected? The people sent by the emperor are naturally doing things under the emperor's orders, so it's not good for my brother to interfere." Nian Guifei's voice Delicately, she panted slightly after talking to her son for a while.

Nian Gengyao said a few perfunctory words, and said that he would be careful and told her not to worry.In fact, when his subordinates accidentally discovered two of the hidden guards, he was very angry. At first, he also thought that the emperor was sending someone to monitor him.He was born and fought hard to defend his family and country, and to be loyal to the emperor, but now he is so questioned, how can he not be angry?But after he realized that those hidden guards had nothing to do with him, he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, since they have been investigated, they will be investigated thoroughly, let alone in his Xining.If there is a major matter that can be seen, the emperor will definitely ask him to assist. Now that he is investigating secretly, and he is tracking down the old man in the hidden mansion, there must be something shady.If he knew the inside story, he might be able to help Fuhui become the crown prince in the future.At that time, he will be the uncle of the country!

It was getting late, so Nian Gengyao told the noble concubine not to be timid and bullied, after all, she was already a noble concubine, and besides the queen, she was the most noble in the harem.Then he said a few words to Xi'er who was accompanying Concubine Nian, took out a few banknotes from his pocket and stuffed them into Xi'er's hand, saying that there is a lot of money in the palace, if it is not enough, just do it in the palace. Just say something to her in the letter.

After Nian Gengyao left, Concubine Nian gently thumped her waist with her hands.

Xi'er hurriedly stepped forward and asked concerned: "Is your waist sore again?" Seeing that the noble concubine nodded, she knelt down and pinched her.

Since the imperial concubine gave birth to Fupei, she couldn't sit still during the confinement period, and her body collapsed.It is often easy to suffer from back pain, just like just sitting for a while, her back is already sore and uncomfortable.During the confinement period, I don't know whether it was because of the wind blowing or crying too much. Now I am prone to headaches and occasionally feel dizzy...

In Jingren Palace, Lingxi walked into the room cursing.Concubine Xi has developed a habit since she was in Qiandi. Every spring, she has to pick flower petals, whether they are dried to make sachets or washed to make flower cakes, in short, they are used to it.So seeing that the peach blossoms in the imperial garden were about to bloom, Lingxi would go there every day, and if they bloomed, someone would pick the petals and go back.There are many flowers in the imperial garden, and Lingxi only picks peach blossoms and sweet-scented osmanthus. Who told them to be special to their mothers? They are used to smelling these two flowers, so they don't like others very much.

"Niang Niang, when the servant girl just came back, she saw a father-in-law sneaking around outside the Zhongcui Palace. When he saw me passing by, he was frightened out of his wits, and hurried to the flowers in the imperial garden. Like a mouse..." Lingxi murmured as soon as she came back, Yanhua rarely allowed her to go out after she entered the palace, so she didn't know most of the people in the palace, and she didn't even know which palace they served in. clear.

"The Bell Palace?"

"Hmm. Ma'am, didn't nobleman Wu say that she was murdered before? Could it be that the person who killed her wanted to kill her again after seeing that she was not dead?" Lingxi moved closer mysteriously, speaking in a serious manner.

Yanhua glanced at her boredly, and said without much interest: "As for their master and servant... well, they are a little bit older, it's okay to keep their mouths shut, and they don't know how to use their brains. I don't know if she can sneak peeps." What kind of secrets are told everywhere, and now maybe others want to shut her up."

Although Mrs. Wu kept yelling that someone was going to kill her and even threw a stone at her head, but she was fate after all. Maybe it was Ziyan who ran down the rockery when her son worked hard. Missed the opportunity to stone her to death.Now that the empress punished her for confinement, it was also a way to protect her life.If not, she was wandering around in the palace, maybe she would be dragged to some corner and strangled to death.It's just that Mr. Wu Guiren only felt wronged by his master and servant, and he almost died, not to mention, and now he is fined and confinement.

"Your Majesty, don't you want to know other news from Nobleman Wu?" Lingxi asked curiously, but it was because last time Nobleman Wu told Yanhua a piece of news that didn't hurt or itch, and then acted mysteriously, saying If there are other things she knows, if Concubine Xi wants to know, she can tell them.

However, Yanhua is not the kind of person who likes to be threatened, she only expected that the rest of her news would not be useful to her, so she ignored her at that time.

As for the matter of agreeing to nobleman Wu and arranging for her to meet the emperor, Yan Hua also thought it through, and let it happen.Anyway, nobleman Wu is being locked up right now, if she still remembers this after three months, Yanhua will make arrangements.At most, one day when the emperor comes to her Jingren Palace, she can ask someone to call nobleman Wu. As for whether the emperor thinks highly of nobleman Wu, that is the emperor's business.

There was a problem with Hongli's first nanny, Zhenyue was gone, so I had to start with Ziyan's brother.After Hongli sacrificed, Wei Changan joined the ranks of imperial guards, Yanhua asked Qian Gui to meet him, and asked him to help find the whereabouts of Ziyan's brother, so that he could investigate further.

But Ziyan's elder brother seemed to have evaporated from the world, and he couldn't be found no matter how hard he tried.Yanhua only thought of the words "kill people and kill them". While Wei Chang'an sent people to continue to investigate, she no longer had extravagant hopes for this.

Wu Guiren should only have talked about the nanny with Concubine Qi, but Wu Guiren and Song Changzai both live in Zhongcui Palace, so whether Song Changzai also knows about this, Yanhua really doesn't know.

"Sister, what are you worrying about? Look at how tightly she is frowning." At this time, Concubine Yu walked in with Xianyun, holding a post in her hand.

Yanhua glanced at it, stretched her brows and smiled, then asked Shaoyao to take out her red post: "Sister also received it?"

Concubine Yu nodded: "Well, I just came here to talk to my sister about this matter, is my sister ready to show her face?"

The post in her hand was sent by Concubine Qi of Chengqian Palace just now, saying that the spring is warm and the flowers are about to bloom. She plans to hold a flower feast in the imperial garden on the sixth day of March, with all the sisters. Have fun.

When she was in Qian Mansion before, Concubine Qi was not keen on taking the initiative to hold a banquet to have fun with everyone. At that time she had the most children, and she was still a proud side Fujin.Even if Yinzhen stopped protecting her like that later, the arrogance in her heart would not tolerate her showing affection to those princesses.

But this time, why did she set up the Hundred Flowers Banquet?
After Yan Hua rolled her eyes twice, she smiled slightly, and sat down with Concubine Yu: "Even if it's a Hongmen banquet, we have to go to find out what medicine she sells in the gourd."

"What is the Hongmen Banquet?" Lingxi's face was full of curiosity, the palace ladies and eunuchs were not allowed to read and write, so the two people Yanhua brought from the Qian Mansion claimed to be illiterate.Since Yinzhen turned a blind eye, the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not criticize him too much.

"It's just a trap for you to take advantage of, but you have to go."

"Ah! This is what the maidservant said to Shaoyao just now, that's what she meant! Ladies, don't go, the imperial garden is not owned by Concubine Qi alone, and ladies want to enjoy the flowers, when can't you go, you have to What are you doing with her to join in the fun?" Lingxi Dang even straightened her body, spoke with a straight face, and kept looking at Shao Yao's face, as if hoping for her to prove that she really thought so.

"Lingxi is a crow's mouth, sister don't pay attention to her." Yanhua covered her mouth and smiled, then gave Lingxi a white look and ignored her.Lingxi has a good crow's mouth, but although her words are vulgar, many bad things really happened as she expected.

It's not that Yanhua didn't think that Concubine Qi's banquet was really a grand banquet, but she had already thought about it, no matter what Concubine Qi wanted to do, it was all for the name behind the "Fair and Bright" plaque.She has Hongli to protect her, so no matter what, she has to go and see what Concubine Qi is up to.

Since the three-year mourning period was not over yet, on the sixth day of March, Concubine Qi didn't make too much extravagance, but just set up a banquet among the flowers in the imperial garden, and all kinds of flowers crowded forward, which was very lively.

Yan Hua and Concubine Yu went there together, and when they got to the place, they saw that many people came today, except for the empress and the imprisoned nobleman, all the palace masters have arrived.
