Chapter 161: Blessing

She had two purposes this time. The first is to tell the Empress that she had no intention of her and never wanted to steal the emperor. The second is to see if the emperor was sincere to her, so that she could determine how to move forward in this palace in the future. [ ]

Forty-nine days, neither long nor short, but they can make people see many things clearly and recognize many things.

Reciting scriptures and chanting Buddha's name is not an easy task. Wei Ning'er set up a small Buddhist temple in a side hall in the back garden of Zuixinyuan. After quietly reading the scriptures for two days, he felt sore all over.

"My master, let's take a break first!" Bingruo said with some distress.

Wei Ning'er shook her head and said softly: "I have never read the scriptures before, but now I think there is great knowledge in it!"

"I don't know a few words at all, so I can't understand it!" Bingruo shook his head.

"I will understand slowly. I will chant scriptures and pray for the Empress later. Don't disturb me." Wei Ning'er ordered.

"Yes!" Bingruo immediately retreated.

Just a few days after Wei Ning'er went to the Buddhist temple, rumors gradually spread in the Tiandi family, saying that the Empress was jealous of Lingpin's favor, and Lingpin was frightened. Then, by chanting scriptures and praying for blessings, he avoided the Emperor to avoid the Empress's resentment.

After Chu Xia and others heard about it, they immediately reported to the queen.

"Chuxia, do you say that Ning'er is going to pray for this palace this time. I am really afraid that I will hate her in my heart, so I deliberately hide from me and hide from the emperor, and also from the emperor?" The queen fell into deep thought when she heard this, and then asked Chuxia beside her for a moment.

"Empress, Lingpin is already smart. She can see many things clearly. Naturally, she also understands the concerns and worries in her heart. She does this now, just wanting the Empress to be at ease!" Chu Xia replied in a little panic.

"While she goes to pray for blessings, I will be quiet. In the early summer, let the kitchen cook more vegetarian dishes and send them to Lingpin, and make some snacks she loves!" the queen said softly.

"Yes, Empress!" Chu Xia sighed slightly in her heart. The Queen could not let go of the orders.

In Yimengxuan, Concubine Xian was feeding the fifth prince himself for food. After Mu Yun reported, she didn't raise her head, as if she didn't care at all. After the fifth prince finished the meal and was taken away by the nanny, she said, "Mu Yun, who released the news?"

"I don't know, this is all spread by the slaves!" Mu Yun replied.

"I believe that Lingpin would not be like this. She is the queen's confidant. The queen can even tolerate so many women in the palace. Could it be that she can't tolerate her?" Concubine Xian said disapprovingly.

"Empress, are you saying... this is the intentional one by the Empress and Concubine Ling?" Mu Yun asked in surprise.

"I don't know about this, but it would be great if Concubine Ling really fought with the queen's nest." Concubine Xian smiled.

"Would you like to add more fire?" Mu Yun asked.

"No need for now, let's take a look first!" Concubine Xian shook her head.

The rumors in the palace naturally came to the emperor's ears, but the emperor never said anything about this, as if it had not happened. He still went to see the queen every day, and spent half of the month staying with the queen.

The days froze and it was the third day of the seventh month. Wei Ning'er locked herself in the Buddhist temple for one month.

The concubines who were originally extremely favored and highly anticipated suddenly seemed to disappear. Even the concubines in the palace didn't remember her much.

Only the queen personally ordered the kitchen to make vegetarian dishes and snacks for Wei Ning'er every day. The person who delivered the vegetarian dishes changed from the eunuch at the beginning to Chengbi, and finally Chuxia went there in person.

Wei Ning'er saw it and roughly understood the queen's meaning. Her hard work this month was not in vain.

On this day, the emperor still sat on the dragon carriage and went to the empress's clear water clouds. When passing by the Zexinyuan, the eunuchs carrying the dragon carriage seemed to know the emperor's intentions and all stopped.

The emperor looked at Zuixinyuan quietly and said for a while: "Let's go!"

"Yes!" Wu Shulai nodded and then signaled the eunuchs to leave quickly.

A few days ago, the emperor always passed by Zuixinyuan and asked his servants to stop. Over time, everyone also developed a habit.

"Wu Shu comes, I'm the master of the Concubine Ling, right?!" the emperor asked suddenly.

"Your Majesty, that's right!" Wu Shulai replied.

"Has the eldest lady of the Wei family ever given a title for imperial edict?" the emperor frowned slightly.

"Although the Ama Wei Qingtai of Concubine Ling was working in the Office of Internal Affairs, he was also a martial arts master. Therefore, the eldest lady of the Wei family never had the title of imperial edict!" Wu Shu replied.

When the emperor heard this, he pondered for a moment before saying, "Transfer my will to confer the title of the sixth wife of the Wei family, Huang, as a third-rank lady."

According to the Qing Dynasty's imperial edict system, only if an official has made meritorious titles, his grandmother, mother and wife can be enthroned. He is the first-rank official and the second-rank official's grandmother, mother and wife each have the honor of the wife of the imperial edict; he is the third-rank grandmother, mother and wife each has the honor of the so-called wife; he is the fourth-rank mother and wife each has the honor of the honor; he is the fifth-rank mother and wife each has the honor of the pleasant one; he is the sixth-rank mother and wife each has the title of Anren.

When Wu Shulai heard this, he was frightened to see the emperor. The emperor had never mentioned Lingpin for these days, but Wu Shulai knew that the emperor had never let go. He originally planned to wait for 49 days and secretly persuade Lingpin to admit his mistake to the emperor, but he did not know that the emperor would give in first.

"Please choose something and give it a reward!" the emperor said again.

"Yes, the servant follows the order, and I will do it now!" Wu Shulai replied.

"Let's go, go to the small Buddhist temple in the back garden to take a look!" the emperor pondered for a moment and ordered.

"Yes!" Wu Shulai was happy and replied repeatedly.

"I seem to be more anxious than me when I look at you?" The emperor looked at him with a smile.

"How can you do it? Your Majesty, you are thinking about Concubine Ling because the Empress is liked by the Emperor, and your Majesty, you are thinking about Concubine Ling because the Empress is good to us servants!" Wu Shulai said hurriedly.

"Well..." The emperor glanced at him deeply and responded faintly.

Wu Shulai was immediately frightened and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, what I said is the truth."

The emperor nodded slightly but said nothing, which made Wu Shulai feel over and over.

When he arrived outside the small Buddhist temple, the emperor did not inform anyone. He stood outside and looked at Wei Ning'er kneeling on the cushion. The trace of longing for days suddenly burst out at this moment.

Only then did the emperor realize that he did not miss her, but deliberately suppressed it, deliberately letting himself forget and ignore it. Only when he saw her did he realize that everything was futile.

After a month of absence, she seemed to have diminished. The emperor felt ache in his heart. He was about to go in, but he saw that Wei Ning'er had finished reciting the scriptures and was standing up from the cushion. Perhaps because she had been kneeling for too long, her legs were numb, and when she got up, she staggered forward and fell halfway.

"Be careful!" Bing Ruo and Qingyan who were beside Hou were shocked. Both of them were about to reach out to support Wei Ning'er, but a bright yellow figure flashed in front of him. When he looked closely, the little master was already being held in his arms by the emperor.

Wei Ning'er looked at the emperor blankly, at a loss, and didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Ning'er, you're losing weight!" The emperor gently stroked her face and said softly.

Wei Ning'er felt her nose slightly sore, and there was a fog flashing in her eyes, so she immediately turned her head away.

"I'm still angry with me?" the emperor asked with a sigh.

"I dare not, it's my fault!" Wei Ning'er took a deep breath and said.

But the emperor smiled and said, "I remember, when Ning'er used to treat me as a guard, she once told me that your mother was the concubine of the Wei family and that I forgot."

When Wei Ning'er heard this, she turned her head to look at the emperor, with incredible eyes... Did he actually remember it?

Even Wei Ning'er herself couldn't explain it clearly. When the emperor said that he would reward Mrs. Wei, she was angry and forgot about it.

"Your Majesty, you have a lot of troubles. You naturally can't remember these trivial matters. That day, it was originally my concubine!" Wei Ning'er said softly.

"Ning'er's affairs are extremely important no matter how young it is. I will definitely remember them clearly in the future!" the emperor said with a smile.

When Wei Ning'er heard this, her heart trembled suddenly and said that it was fake that she dared not move, but at this moment, what could she do? She had to bite the bullet and say, "Emperor, I am praying for the Empress now. You can go out quickly, otherwise the Buddha will blame you!"

"I won't go out!" The emperor hugged her even tighter.

Wei Ning'er's pretty face turned slightly red, and after a few efforts, she was futile and had to give up.

The emperor gently pushed away the thin hair on her forehead and said softly: "Why torture yourself?"

Wei Ning'er smiled and said, "Not torture? Your Majesty, do you believe it or not? I can recite the Lotus Sutra and Diamond Sutra from beginning to end without saying a word!"

The emperor was slightly stunned and then laughed out loud: "My Ning'er is such a little fool!"

"I'm not stupid." Wei Ning'er took the opportunity to break free from the emperor's arms, took two steps back, and said with a smile.

The emperor looked at her and felt helpless.

"Your Majesty, please leave quickly. Before you arrive forty-nine days, please don't come to the fungus Garden to see me. Even if you come, I will not be able to see you!" Wei Ning'er said with a smile.

"Okay, I won't come!" The emperor had no choice but to nod, and waited for him to leave the Enlightenment Garden before he came to Wu Shu, "Why did I be led away by this girl?"

When Wu Shulai heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud. After being glared at by the emperor, he forced his smile to tremble all over.

"Wu Shu comes, from today on, I will first select the fresh fruits tribute to me and send them to Lingpin." The emperor ordered Wu Shulai after he got on the dragon chariot.

"Yes, the emperor!" Wu Shulai replied.

For several days, when the emperor passed by Zuixinyuan, he still asked his servants to stop. Once he couldn't help but go to the small Buddhist temple in the back garden, but saw that the gate of the Buddhist temple was closed and had to leave.

On this day, the queen went to Zuixinyuan in person and ordered people to open the door of the Buddhist temple.

"Why are you here?" Wei Ning'er looked at the queen in surprise, then asked Bingruo to help her up from the cushion and wanted to salute, but the queen said, "Forgive me, go to the main hall with me!"

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er responded and then left the Buddhist temple.

"You all retreat!" When we arrived at the main hall, the queen immediately shut down everyone.
