The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 648
In the garden, the queen began to stroll around in the garden, Zarafin took care of the children in the small courtyard, Yong Lian's laughter burst into the courtyard from a distance.

Yiken'er and Ha Yihu stood in front of the table, reciting the book to Zarafin.

Today, Hongli arranged homework for the two of them early, asking them not to make any more noise, and to calm down, and tomorrow, he will come to inspect the two children in person.

"Er Niang, we have already recited it. Di Er Niang is playing outside with Brother Yonglian. Can we play around in the courtyard?" Yi Ken'er raised his head and pleaded with Zarafin.

Zarafin flatly refused, and Hongli said in advance that if Yonglian came out, the two children would not go out.

The three children are playing together, and they are still young. If Yong Lian stumbles, Zarafen and the children will be punished. In the capital, Sifujin is still restrained. Now, Sifujin has not restrained at all. up.

"Didn't Ama tell you that you can't go out?" Ha Yihu said with a small mouth.

Hongli taught his children the same. He would tell the situation in the mansion from an early age. Although the children are young, they know that if they go out, they will be beaten directly. Therefore, the little girl will not touch it. Touch the bottom line.

"Er Niang, I want to eat bean paste!" Yi Ken'er looked at Zarafin and said.

"Su Zhu, you take the two children to the side hall to eat mashed potatoes." Zarafin always felt a little flustered, not sure what was wrong.

"Yes!" After Suzhu took the siblings away, the figures of the elder and younger had just disappeared, she picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The Empress is very concerned about appearances. It is estimated that Brother Yonglian will come to find the siblings after playing for a while, so as to avoid being involved, it is best to let the two children go back.

"Master, the pomegranate girl beside the empress is here." The eldest nun walked in and said beside Zarafin.

"Please." Zarafin said with a sigh.

Shiliu walked in in a blue palace attire, and greeted Zarafin respectfully.

"Your lord, the master took Elder Brother Yonglian to play in the courtyard, and said that if the little brother Yikener Ha Yihu and Little Gege are awake, let them go and play together." Shiliu looked around, and there were no two children. I knew in my heart that the siblings should not be sober yet.

"The children are still taking a nap. If the children wake up, I will take them to the garden. How long has the mistress been out?" Zarafin asked in a seemingly unintentional manner.

"It's been an hour, the master said, if the little elder brother and the little Gege haven't woken up for half an hour, we will make another appointment tomorrow. Brother Yonglian delayed his lunch break today, so he played outside." According to Pomegranate The queen's orders were spoken.

Zarafin pursed his lips and smiled: "This is excellent, pomegranate, I have prepared some mashed potatoes here, I will bring one to Brother Yonglian, and the other is for the master to try something new, something the children like , grown-ups eat once or twice once in a while, it’s a bit of wild fun.”

"Yes, this servant knows." Su Yan hurried to the small kitchen and took a food box with two ready-made mashed potatoes in it.

When Pomegranate left, Zarafin smiled coldly, seeing the eldest mother standing aside, her eyes filled with relief, she was relieved.

"Master has become more disciplined, and he has done everything without leaking, which is not bad." The eldest mother expressed her appreciation for Zarafin's approach.

The eldest mother was very relieved. Since she came to Zarafin, seeing Zarafin grow up slowly, the eldest mother thought that Zarafin could take good care of the child.

"Nurse, tell me, the Queen sent Pomegranate to look for the two children, did someone come in to say hello?" Zarafin became curious.

"Someone should be paying their respects. You were right in not letting the little masters go. Not everyone can accompany our little masters." The eldest mother was annoyed by the queen's behavior.

When the sun was setting, Zarafin let the two children sit quietly at the dining table. Hongli washed up in the bedroom and would come over for dinner soon. Yiken'er's Danfeng eyes often glanced at the dining table.

"Little boy, why don't you let the child eat first?" Hongli walked in from the door, looked at his daughter's aggrieved eyes, instantly turned into a daughter slave, and asked Zarafin directly.

"Grandpa, didn't we agree that the children's rules will be taught from now on?" Zarafin asked confused.

In front of the children, Zarafin must be a bad person, but Hongli is a good person.

"Okay, it's considered Ama's mistake today. Next time, listen to what your mother said, and follow the rules next time. If you are in the palace, you have to wait for Mamo Anggu, Mafa Huang, and Mama to take their seats. Is it?" Hongli said, looking at the children.

The siblings nodded obediently, and felt that what their Ama said was right. In front of the nuns, someone asked the two young masters to start calling Honglihuang Ama. Yikener would call it that way outside, but, In the mansion, I still speak according to my own ideas.

"Ama, I understand." Ha Yihu nodded.

Yiken was eating his dinner with a heavy head. In addition, Hongli summoned the ministers from the south today. Many people said that the officials and family members hoped to see the queen. Hongli felt a little complicated.

After dinner, Hongli went to the study with his mother and son according to his old habits. After everyone sat down, Gao Wuyong got warm water.

The two children were obediently preparing to wait for Hongli's assessment. Later, Hongli let the grandma take the children to bed together. Hongli got up and walked to the beauty couch near the window, and accompanied Zara Fern sat down.

"Little boy, you have worked hard these few days, you must have seen the officials and family members in the south?" Hongli asked, looking at Zarafin.

"Of course, and besides, I also met some strange people." Zarafin told about meeting the officials and family members. When the female family members spoke, they looked directly at the wife of the Governor of Lianghuai.

"This afternoon, the wife of the governor of Huaihe River and Huaihe River came to the garden. It should be to greet the queen. The queen wanted to let the sister and brother go there, but you said that the sister and brother had a lunch break, so they couldn't go there." Hongli said directly, "This is a good idea. , can reduce the chances of officials and family members seeing the siblings."

Zarafin was stunned, and Hongli actually felt that what she said was right. Before that, she thought of several sets of explanations to explain to Hongli in her mind, but she didn't expect it to be completely useless.

"It's good that those people are rare. Xiaoguai has done a good job. The eldest mother said that you have really grown up." Hongli was very happy. Although Zarafin rarely expressed his feelings, the two had been together for many years. , have been able to understand each other's thoughts, and the more she cares about the person, the more she will reveal her childish temperament.

"Grandpa and Mammy really praised me, and I feel so proud!" Zarafin said with emotion.

In June, the south is slowly getting hotter. Yongzheng summoned Hongli. The father and son have already discussed to go to worship the ancestors. This year is the last year of Yongzheng. They are going to take advantage of the opportunity to spend Yongzheng outside the customs. first year.

"Master, Long Live God has sent a message to let you start preparing things for the return trip." Su Yan walked to Zarafin's side and said, "Master will not stay in Beijing, and will go directly outside the pass to worship the ancestors."

Zarafin was shocked when he heard Su Yan's words. Hongli is definitely not a person who would violate the rules. Just now, the queen has not received any news, but she has already received the news. This is obviously Hongli. It's waterproof.

"Elder Sister, we should make a list first, the servants may need to make big purchases in the past few days." Zarafin looked at the Eldest Sister and said.

The servants were basically transferred away by the queen, and it was said that there were not enough servants in the garden, so so many people were transferred.

"Master, you need to know that the Queen's order is for the female relatives to pay their respects tomorrow." Su Zhu came in and said hastily.

Zarafin was slightly taken aback, and was about to pay his respects tomorrow. Outside the garden, many ladies began to pay their respects, but Zarafin refused them all.

Just after Yin time, Zarafin put on a goose-yellow uniform and a set of emerald gold hairpins, and sat on the soft sedan chair with Suzhu's hand.

After leaving the courtyard, Zarafin looked out through the window of the sedan chair. Rows of palace lanterns hung in the corridor on the right, lighting up the huge palace road.

The servants had already started to work one after another. Zarafin's sedan chair passed in front of them, and all the servants knelt on the ground to pay their respects.

In the line of court ladies, a girl raised her head and looked at the leaving line with a look of unwillingness in her eyes.

At this time, Zarafin didn't know that a court lady had been eyeing her early.

In the queen's courtyard, all the court ladies had arrived and stood in the corridor one after another. Some people were staring at the position of the door, hoping to have a chance to talk with the concubines.

Zarafin's sedan chair stopped in the courtyard, after Su Zhu helped her get off the sedan chair, the courtiers greeted Zarafin one after another, some people's eyes lit up, and they hurried forward.

Shiliu quickly came out of the hall, walked up to Zarafin, and greeted Zarafin respectfully.

"Master said, tell Concubine Shu to wait in the hall, and all the wives will wait first." Shi Liu looked at the wives and said.

Zarafin hurried in with Pomegranate. Outside, everyone was wearing thick clothes and holding stoves in their hands, so it shouldn't be very cold.

Although Zarafin didn't want to enter the palace, he didn't want to greet the court ladies. In the queen's courtyard, no matter who Zarafin got closer to, the queen would miss him.

"Little boy, come have some breakfast with me." The queen's voice came from the inner hall.

Zarafin hurriedly got up and walked over, only to find that the queen and elder brother Yonglian, mother and son, were having sex at the dining table.

"Greetings to the empress." Zarafin hurriedly greeted the queen.

"Great lady!" Yong Lian looked at Zarafin and remembered to say hello, but was stopped by Zarafin.

"Brother Yonglian is good, you should eat obediently." Zarafen liked Yonglian very much.

Thanks to the queen's careful care, Yong Lian became much healthier then, and Zarafin was completely relieved.

"Little boy, come and have dinner together, the ladies outside can wait a little longer." The queen's dining table was arranged according to the proportion of the queen and Yong Lian.

Zarafin took a few bites, and felt that the food was cooked by the imperial chef. Although it is in the south, it is still a special feature of the capital.

"I heard that the dishes in the south of you are very good. How many times have you come here with me, how do you feel?" The queen became curious as she ate the purple rice porridge.

"Empress Empress." Zarafin put down his chopsticks, ready to answer.

"Talk while having breakfast." The queen interrupted Zarafin's answer.

"Yes," Zarafin picked up the chopsticks again, "Actually, we only use fresh ones when we come to the south, and the food here is very bland, so if you are not used to it, you should use the ones brought from the capital." it is good."

After the words were finished, Yong Lian's Danfeng eyes widened, and a longing look appeared on his face.

"When it's time for lunch, Erniang will ask someone to cook some dishes for you. Yikener likes to eat mashed potatoes? Yong Lian also likes it very much. If you prepare any more, you can make a bowl for Yong Lian." The queen looked at it. Zarafin said.

Among the female relatives, the food delivered by Zarafin is the safest.

"Your Majesty, I'll give you the recipe. Brother Yonglian can eat it at any time, whether it's Yikene or when they eat it." Zarafin said straightforwardly. "Girl Pomegranate, bring the pen and paper here later."

After breakfast, Zarafin began to write recipes, Yong Lian was taken away by the nanny, and the queen drank tea aside.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Song came over one after another. Putao went to invite the two outside the hall, Mrs. Song sat directly inside the hall, while Mrs. Li hovered in front of the ladies.

"Your Majesty, these are recipes that children like to eat." Zarafin said directly.

The queen asked the pomegranate to be put away immediately, and the queen took Zarafin out together.

Zarafin walked behind, and Li Shi came in with all the officials and family members, with a faint smile on his face.

After everyone saluted, the officials and family members took their seats according to their ranks. The queen sat on the main seat and said some scene words. Zarafin listened with a smile on her face. She had to say that she was still unable to cope with what the queen had done.

"Your Majesty, look at Elder Brother Yonglian is really healthy, why haven't you seen the sisters and brothers of the Imperial Concubine?" the wife of the governor of Lianghuai asked Zarafin.

Her words implied that Zarafin had ambitions, and she placed the siblings ahead of elder brother Yonglian.

"Ma'am, what you said is strange. The empress is considerate of the young children. Every time the children come to pay their respects after they wake up, the siblings were born earlier than elder brother Yonglian. Empress It is always said that it is best for the child's body to take good care of it when it is young." Zarafin retorted.

After hearing Zarafin's words, the queen felt very relieved, and finally knew how to deal with it.

"Yiken'er and Ha Yihu come here every day. In the capital, Ben Gong told them to come over in the afternoon, and the three children are still playing together. It seems that the wife has never given birth, so she doesn't know how to be Er's mother. Thoughts." The Queen sneered.

The wife of the Governor of Lianghuai has no legitimate sons, only a child in the concubine. In the struggle in the backyard, the wife of the Governor of Lianghuai was a loser. Now, the siblings she said are obviously hinted at by someone.

"Yes, my wife knows I'm wrong!" The wife of the governor of the Huaihe River and Huaihe River knelt in the hall and pleaded guilty with her handkerchief rolled up.

The governor's wife of Lianghuai hated Zarafin in her heart. She felt that the queen was the first wife, and she had to speak to Zarafin just for the sake of Yongzheng's face.
