Taohong supported Yibin, who was staggering and struggling. This was the first day, and there were still two days of punishment waiting for her, and the number of days for self-reflection was not certain. The days to come were uncertain, and she felt very worried.
It was uncomfortable, but when I entered the door, I saw Guo Guiren standing in the yard holding Princess Kejing, smiling and saying: "Sister has been wronged, why do you think you should do it? It's okay now, both of us sisters are locked up, this Yikun
The palace is really unlucky, the little bitch got favored and got pregnant as soon as she left, which shows that the feng shui here is really not very good."
Yi Bi stared at her biological sister in a daze, remembering that she had heard a few gossips, saying that Concubine Zhao at that time complained that her sister was too weak, and envied the second young lady of the Guo Luoluo family for being lively and clever. But look at it now, Concubine Wen
The empress found the way she should live and lived a good life in the palace, but her younger sister, who was praised for being lively and clever, became vicious and mean to others, and she was not polite to her own sister.
"Taohong." Yibin said, stood firm, let go of Taohong's hand, and said immediately, "Go and bring the princess."
"master?"
"Go and bring the princess over." Yi Bin said sternly, and also ordered the people next to her, "Go and help Taohong bring the princess over."
"Sister, what do you want to do?" Guo Guiren was anxious, and when she shouted, Ke Jing was so frightened that he cried, but the maids had already come up to snatch the child. How could Guo Guiren alone be able to defeat three or four pairs of hands, and her maids
It was too late to hate her, who would come to help, Ke Jing was quickly snatched away, and Guo Guiren also fell to the ground. Yi Bi patted the princess and coaxed her a few words, and then let Tao Hong take her away first, while she held the baby beside her.
The little palace maid returned slowly.
But after taking only two steps, Guo Guiren got up and stopped in front of the road, and also stopped Taohong. Yi Bin didn't wait for her to speak and scolded her: "What are you doing here? Take the princess to the main hall."
Guo Guiren rushed over like crazy and asked: "What are you doing? You can't see your own child, so you come to snatch my child? Are we still sisters?"
"Sister? This is how you should talk to your sister?" Yi Bin said sternly, "What do you mean by robbing your child? Isn't Ke Jing my daughter? Why can she stay in Yikun Palace?
The emperor raised me up, but you, a little nobleman, have what qualifications do you have to raise a princess?"
"elder sister!"
"Shut up, don't let me hear you yelling again." Yi Bin helped the palace maid next to her and continued to walk, while finishing her words, "The emperor asked you not to come out of your room, I am soft-hearted and let you
Wandering around here, please listen carefully. From now on, you are not allowed to leave the side hall before the emperor gives you an order to forgive you. Otherwise, I will deal with you with the power of the first palace master."
"Sister, I am your biological sister." Guo Guiren rushed over, but was blocked by other palace ladies.
Yi Bin didn't even look at her, and coldly ordered the people around her: "Send Guo Guiren back to the house. If she continues to beat and scold the palace maids and eunuchs at will, come and report to me. Long Live the Lord hates the lynching and abuse in the harem most."
, it can’t be tolerated in Yikun Palace.”
As she spoke, she walked straight to the main hall. After entering, she asked someone to close the door. Her sister's screams gradually stopped, and she could only hear Ke Jing's cry inside. She listened blankly. The last time she heard Yin Qi crying, she went straight to the main hall.
, when he was born, she had never heard what the child was crying like now.
"Why did the Empress Dowager do this to me?" Yi Bin collapsed softly on the ground, kneeling for half an hour with severe pain in her knees. After falling, she could not get up again. She simply fell to the ground and cried loudly, covering her stomach with one hand.
, thinking that she had lost a child, thinking that Yinqi had never seen her mother properly, tears couldn't stop falling. She couldn't live like this for the rest of her life. She wanted to have her own child by her side. She didn't want to be like Concubine Zhao.
Resentful woman.
Taohong came out after placing the princess. When she saw her falling to the ground, she came over to help her and persuaded her: "Master, please don't cry. After these few days, go and admit your mistake to the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother. The Emperor always cares for you. You
You have to have confidence.”
With tears in her eyes, Yibin pulled Taohong and asked: "What should I do..."
The Forbidden City is so big that no matter how much the Yikun Palace cries, no one can hear it outside. Before lunch, Lan Qi came to Cining Palace with Yinzuo in her arms. The Empress Dowager was not in a bad mood. She blamed her for taking her children out because of the snow on the road.
, while watching Yinzuo tremblingly stand up, he was very happy.
The old man was playing with his grandson on the kang like a child, holding him in his arms and pretending to walk. Yin Zuo was extremely excited and chirped for a long time. When it was time to pass on lunch, he still kept pestering his great-grandmother.
, he would pout and cry if anyone came to take him away. The Empress Dowager was distressed and happy, and in turn scolded Lan Qi: "Don't pester me to eat. I'm not hungry. Wait until my little darling is hungry."
Lan Qi tried to persuade her several times but was blocked. Although Yinzuo didn't understand what the adults were saying, he laughed happily. Fortunately, he was hungry soon and started looking for a wet nurse to feed him. Only then did the Empress Dowager become free.
We came to have dinner, and by chance it was announced that the emperor had arrived.
When Xuan Ye entered the door, he felt cold and said it was snowing again. Seeing that the emperor's grandmother had just eaten at this hour, he said happily: "My grandson hasn't eaten yet. I thought that if I couldn't come over, I would ask for a bowl of rice and make it with tea."
I ate it, but I didn’t expect it to taste so good.”
Aunt Sumala, however, joked: "Sixth brother must have known that Emperor Ama was coming to dinner, so he deliberately pestered great-grandmother and delayed it until this hour."
Xuan Ye was delighted and joked: "Yin Zuo loves his Ama the most." Seeing Lan Qi give him a stove to warm him, he took it and asked, "Where is the child?"
"Elsewhere, the wet nurse is breastfeeding." Lan Qi responded, but Xuan Ye made a gesture towards her and said, "Go and see the child, and I will bring him over later for a look."
Lan Qi understood and guessed that Xuan Ye had something to say to the Empress Dowager and it was not convenient for her to be around, so she left on the pretext of going to see Yinzuo. When the old man saw this, she blamed Xuan Ye: "Send her to do it now."
What, she hasn’t even eaten a bite of food.”
But the person had already left, Xuan Ye sat down and first had a bowl of hot milk to warm himself, and then he started to eat when he was so hungry. The Empress Dowager asked him to eat slowly, but seeing that he ate well, he also gained an appetite and ate most of the food.
After eating a whole bowl of chicken porridge and three fresh spring rolls, he put down his chopsticks and asked for tea to rinse his mouth. He heard Xuan Ye say, "If Grandma Huang has finished eating, my grandson wants to talk to you about something."
The Empress Dowager calmly rinsed her mouth and asked Aunt Sumala to help the emperor wash up. Then she left the dining table with him, went into the Nuan Pavilion and sat down, saying: "I guess you have something to do, tell me, what's the trouble?"
Already?"
Xuan Ye smiled: "It's not a trouble, I just want to ask Grandma Huang for a sign."
The Empress Dowager looked at her grandson and asked him to sit on the heated Kang. She was thinking about the recent events in her heart. She frowned slightly and asked, "Is it because of what happened this morning?"
Xuan Ye smiled bitterly and nodded: "Imperial Grandmother Shengming."
Let's say that when Xuan Ye found out about Yi Bin, he had already dismissed the court meeting. He called Manager Li in his spare time to ask if Lan Qi had returned to Yonghe Palace safely, and if Maitreya Buddha had been sent out, etc. Manager Li accidentally mentioned
After learning about the affairs of Yikun Palace, he found out that Yibin had made a fool of herself and was punished by the imperial grandmother to kneel down for three days.
At that time, I was a little upset, but I calmed down and thought about it. Then I thought about the incident of the eldest brother being poisoned during the Mid-Autumn Festival. If I could change the direction of the harem by doing a few things, I might have consequences for the people I cherish, for the harem, and for the court.
After finishing what I was doing, I came to the Cining Palace to ask the imperial grandmother for instructions.
"That day you said that it was you who caused Yibin to lose her child. It is not known whether the tiger and wolf medicine in those purses was really effective. It was her and the child's fate. She was too young at that time.
It's possible that she can't be saved." The Empress Dowager was obviously disgusted by this matter. Before Xuan Ye could speak, she had already said quietly, "Can you guarantee that she won't be a bad person? You don't know what she has done and what thoughts she has had?"
Xuan Ye was confident: "My grandson won't let anyone get into trouble. They are just concubines in the harem, so what kind of status will they have? Besides, there are always noble concubines above, and Concubine Wen is still there. They can't get past it. Grandma, the grandson can't just
The grandson who dotes on Lan Qi is not just doting on her. There can be many concubines in the harem, but there is only one Lan Qi, and what happened in the past can never happen again."
The Empress Dowager frowned and did not look at Xuan Ye. In her heart, it was better to do more than to do less. However, considering that it was Xuan Ye who had to pay for this, whether he liked it or not, he had to bite the bullet.
It would be really meaningless to hold down a few bowls of water and then obstruct him without actually doing anything to help him or the harem.
"Just do it if you think about it. I understand here. If there is any anger later, it will not be directed at you. Is there anything else that we, grandfather and grandson, can't say face to face, but should we borrow it from other people's mouths?" Tai
The Empress Dowager finally smiled, reached out and patted Xuan Ye's shoulder lovingly, "Don't blame Grandma Huang for being verbose and meddlesome. Even if you are almost thirty years old now, in Grandma Huang's eyes, you are still that little kid of seven or eight years old.
I can't help but think more about you."
Xuan Ye smiled warmly on his face, but his heart was stirred, and he remembered something again. He looked sideways and saw that there were no outsiders around him, and then he said softly to his grandmother: "The elder brother's matter has been resolved a long time ago. Imperial grandmother, grandson
I don’t want to make it known to anyone, so I will definitely exert pressure secretly, but I will never let others know, after all, it involves too much, and my grandson doesn’t want to see the prince bear a bad name.”
The Empress Dowager's smiling face immediately froze, she stared straight at Xuan Ye and said softly: "Is it really Suo'etu?"
Xuan Ye nodded and sneered: "Nothing can escape your eyes. My grandson didn't want to believe it at first. They have kept a low profile for so many years. How come there is something happening at this juncture? But when I checked further, I still found their heads."
Above, my grandson doesn’t believe it and sent another group of people to investigate. The news I heard this morning is the same. Imperial Grandmother, my grandson’s heart is chilling. If Queen Hesheli was here, what would be the situation now? So it is appropriate for the concubine to
We can't be left out in the cold, I can't let those people point their fingers at Yonghe Palace, Lan Qi doesn't even have a relative who is making suggestions behind her, so I am the only one who can protect her."
The Empress Dowager smiled helplessly: "Listen to this, why does it seem like it's only for her? Where is the prince, the noble concubine, and the concubine Wen?"
Xuan Ye was a little embarrassed, lowered his eyes and smiled: "The prince is different, and the concubines are even more different. Grandma, don't make fun of your grandson."
"Who am I making fun of you?" The Empress Dowager was pleased, but she pointed to an open space in front of her, where she had set up a stool to hold down the petite Wu Yalanqi, and whipped her body one after another. The Empress Dowager
I have never given such a severe punishment to a slave in my life, but in order to settle the opinions of the old officials of the previous dynasty and allow the emperor and her to come to power, I sacrificed a weak woman. Thinking about it now, I still feel sad.
Ye said, "Lan Qi was beaten here. I asked her to remember the pain at that time for the rest of her life. Xuan Ye, you should also remember it. Look at your mental strategy now, and then think about yourself at that time, right?
Feel stupid and incompetent?"
Xuan Ye was also moved, and couldn't help but leave his seat, bend his knees and say to the emperor's grandmother: "My grandson will inherit the emperor's grandmother's teachings until today."
When she said this, Lan Qi happened to come in with Yinzuo in her arms. Seeing the emperor kneeling, she hurriedly wanted to kneel down, but Xuan Ye came and took her in. She smiled angrily: "You idiot, I am talking to the emperor's grandmother, and I am talking to the emperor's grandmother.
What does it have to do with you?"
Lan Qi puffed out her mouth and ignored him. She hugged the sleeping Yinzuo to the Empress Dowager and said with a smile: "It's getting heavier and heavier. The wet nurse is really working hard. She won't sleep without being held and coaxed. The wet nurse is only so weak."
Your body will be exhausted sooner or later."
"You are stupid but you still don't admit it. Which wet nurse is not carefully selected and has more experience in raising children than you? They all have a sense of proportion."
Wanting to hug her son, Lan Qi seized the opportunity to fight back, "Your Majesty, it's better not to hug her. You don't know how to hold a child. You insist on joining in the fun. It's easy to fall asleep and wake up again. The Queen Mother can't take a nap either."
Xuan Ye didn't have to refute, he just glared at her, making the Empress Dowager laugh: "I can't take a nap because you two are bickering." He then scolded Lan Qi, "Nonsense, when will you ever teach the emperor a lesson? If you don't behave properly next time,
Let Sumala hold your mouth."
Lan Qi was not convinced and did not dare to talk back. She huddled beside the Empress Dowager and did not speak. Xuan Ye could not stay for long. He still had many things to do. He told Lan Qi to take good care of the empress dowager and left soon.
The Empress Dowager said she didn't want to go to bed, so she leaned on the kang for a while. Xiao Yinzuo was placed beside him to sleep, and she leaned against it lazily. Lan Qi sat behind and rubbed her waist and legs. The two of them chatted leisurely and leisurely.
The Empress Dowager gradually said: "There will be more and more concubines in the harem, and there will be other people who will be liked by the emperor. You should be more open-minded and generous. I really feel aggrieved. Think about it, he was drunk."
Which one does he think about at all times, and who is really in his heart?"
Although Lan Qi agreed wholeheartedly at that time, she did not expect what would happen next. It was not until the next morning that Yi Bi knelt in front of the Yikun Palace for half an hour. During the process, the emperor sat in a warm sedan and even held her hand.
Helping the punished person to comfort him, this kind of thing was said to me all the time. When the Bugui people said it through their mouths, she suddenly understood the intention of the Queen Mother's words. She felt really sour in her heart.
But if you think about it again, as the Empress Dowager said, you will feel more relieved.
