Yuxi was shy and quickly took her arm away from Si Age, but before she could hide the wound, Lan Qi had already sat next to her, gently held her arm in her hands, blew softly twice, and smiled.
He said: "Yu Xi, don't be afraid. I'll put some cool plaster on you in a while and it won't hurt at all. The fifth princess is young and ignorant. When you go back, Concubine De will teach her a lesson and ask her to accompany you. Don't be angry."
Is she angry?"
"No, no, no." Yu Xi quickly shook his head and said, "Eniang said, I want to respect my elder brother and the princesses. How can I let the fifth princess accompany Yuxi? Isn't it, Empress De Fei, Eniang will scold me in this way?
.”
Tears welled up in the little girl's beautiful big eyes. If she had been wronged just now, she was now anxious. Lan Qi felt distressed and coaxed her: "Then just listen to Yu Xi, but I promise you, Concubine De will do it next time."
I will definitely play well with you when I return to Wen Xian. You treat her as your little sister. How much do you love her?"
Only then did Yuxi relax. She smiled with tears hanging down her face. She turned around and saw Si Age next to her. She smiled sweetly at him. Lan Qi pulled her up and led the two children to the Empress Dowager's bedroom. On the way, she asked what they were doing.
What's going on? Yinzhen said he came to pay his respects to his great-grandmother. When he entered the door, he heard Wen Xian yelling. He walked over to take a look and saw Wen Xian grabbing Yuxi's arm and biting her. When he ran over and pulled his sister away, Yuxi
Already been bitten.
Lan Qi touched Yu Xi's head and said, "Did the princess steal something from you?"
The little girl pursed her lips and said nothing. Perhaps her mother-in-law had taught her not to speak ill of the princess' elder brother. Just as she was hesitating, Yinzhen said to her: "Just be honest. Concubine De will not favor Wen Xian."
, my great-grandmother will also ask later, why don’t you say anything?”
Yuxi looked at the fourth brother pitifully, murmured hesitantly and finally replied to Lanqi, it turned out to be nothing, the two girls were playing hide and seek in Cining Palace, Wen Xian could not find Yuxi, but when he turned around, Yuxi
He could always find her right away, which made the little princess anxious. When Yuxi caught her again just now, she was so unconvinced that she grabbed Yuxi's arm and bit her.
The eunuchs and maids who followed also said the same thing, and even comforted Empress Dowager De by saying, "The princess and the young lady are having a great time, so maybe it's just a joke after all."
"Even if she is joking, she should still be rough." Lan Qi was dissatisfied. Not only did her daughter's spoiled temper not calm down, but she became more domineering than before. She didn't know what went wrong. It wasn't that the Queen Mother didn't teach her, but she also
It's not that I don't care. Could it be that this little girl's mind was developed by her?
When he arrived in front of the Empress Dowager, Wen Xian started sobbing as soon as he saw E Niang and his brother. He seemed aggrieved by hiding in his great-grandmother's arms. Lan Qi knew that she could not teach her children a lesson in front of the Empress Dowager, so she only replied: "Yin
Zhen didn't hit her, he just patted her arm, and she always made such a fuss."
The Queen Mother saw Yu Xi next to Lan Qi, and saw her eyes were red and there were tears on her face. She also saw Lan Qi asking Aunt Sumala to get some cooling and anti-fire plasters, and waited until she saw the pain on the child's arm.
, lowered his head to look at Wen Xian, the little girl pouted with aggrieved face, turned her head and hid in her great-grandmother's arms, not looking at everyone.
"Fortunately, the skin is not broken, but the mark is very deep, and you will probably see bruises tomorrow." Lan Qi applied the ointment to Yu Xi, and seemed to be telling Aunt Sumala, but in fact she wanted to tell the Empress Dowager, but
The old man just coaxed Wen Xian to ignore him. She knew the temper of the Empress Dowager and did not dare to say anything more.
Yinzhen paid his respects to his great-grandmother, told her about recent events in the study, and memorized an article for her to read. She would be going back soon. The empress dowager smiled and said to him: "When I return to Chengqian Palace, tell the imperial concubine
, your Ama has sent you the royal meal and asked her to eat it with you. If you want to memorize the lessons, you don’t have to come over."
Yinzhen accepted the order, bowed and left. Yuxi watched Si Age leave and probably wanted to go with her. Only now did the Empress Dowager speak, coaxing the delicate princess in her arms and said: "Mom, do what you like.
Lotus Paste Crispy Rolls, quickly go to the small kitchen with Yu Xi and have a look, and then let grandma make two dough buns for you."
Wen Xian first glanced at E Niang secretly, and when he saw Lan Qi remained calm, he nodded to his great-grandmother and climbed down quickly. He seemed to be worried that E Niang would talk about her, so he moved over cautiously, took Yu Xi's hand and said
: "Sister Yuxi, let's go pinch the little rabbit."
Yuxi was good-tempered. When the princess pulled her away, she immediately ran out. When she got outside the door, she saw that the fourth brother had not gone far. It was raining from the sky. He was waiting for someone to send him off in a sedan chair. He saw his sister and Yuxi.
They came out together and came over. Wen Xian hid behind Yuxi and said coquettishly: "Fourth brother, sister Yuxi and I are fine."
"Don't bite anyone again. E Niang is very angry. If you cause trouble again, you should be beaten." Yinzhen said, and E Niang's scream was very smooth. He didn't pay attention to it, nor did the people around him. Only Yu
Xi heard it. She had only heard E Niang tell her a while ago that Si A Ge was actually the child of Concubine De. When Yu Xi was asked to enter the palace, she respected both Concubine Huang and Concubine De very much. This was the first time she heard Si A
I call her De Fei Niang.
The sedan chair was quickly prepared, and the Fourth Brother was rushing back to review his lessons. The nanny also came to take the princess and Yuxi to make snacks. Only Lan Qi and the Empress Dowager were in the bedroom, and she was combing the Empress Dowager's hair.
, talking slowly about the children, the old man said: "I heard that the young lady from the household minister's family also entered the palace today. Did you see it?"
"My concubine has been at Cining Palace all day, and I really want to see her."
The Queen Mother picked up the last part of her sentence and said, "Do you know that that child will be the eldest brother Fujin in the future?"
Lan Qi smiled and said: "There is such a legend in the palace. Since he entered the palace with such a high profile today, it must be true. I feel that the Queen Mother has chosen the right person."
The Empress Dowager snorted and said, "Concubine Hui chose it herself. The Empress Dowager and I fulfilled her wish to prevent her from making trouble in the palace again because of her son's marriage."
Lan Qi recalled the speculation she had made with Sister Bu that day. Sure enough, there was something else in it. Concubine Hui was really not polite and chose an excellent daughter-in-law for herself.
"She must be jealous when she sees the imperial concubine choosing a daughter-in-law for her. I understand how you moms feel, but the royal family has royal rules, and they all do things according to your wishes. What's the point?" said the Empress Dowager.
With a serious look on his face, he said coldly, "The imperial concubine did not think it over after all."
Lan Qi didn't understand what the Empress Dowager meant by saying this at first. When the Imperial Concubine hurried over, the Empress Dowager said to the Imperial Concubine in front of her: "This time, send the children of the Uranala family out of the palace.
From now on, no matter what the festival is, we are not allowed to enter the palace again."
The imperial concubine was obviously startled, but she gradually regained her composure. She stared at Lan Qi and wanted to ask what was going on, but the empress dowager said: "Why are you glaring at her? This means that even she has to warn you to stay back."
Don’t interact with the Uranala family anymore, let alone take the children into the palace. I will only say this once, even if I am gone in a few years, you will not dare to disobey."
Seeing that the Empress Dowager spoke seriously, both of them knelt down and bowed their heads. The Empress Dowager did not let them get up. Instead, she said earnestly: "Concubine, you have raised your fourth brother for so many years. I can see how you have done your best. Looking at this,
There may not be a better mother than you in the palace. I feel relieved that Si Age will follow you. Concubine De will not ask you to get your son back, but everyone in the world knows that Si Age was born to her, and she will also implicate Si Age.
Brother, you two should be of the same mind."
The two looked at each other and agreed in unison, but the imperial concubine couldn't help but asked anxiously: "Does the Empress Dowager look down on the children of the Ulanala family? The Empress Dowager, that child in Yuxi..."
"Listen to what I have to say." The Empress Dowager shook her head, dissatisfied with the Imperial Concubine's impatience. As expected, their temperaments were very different. Lan Qi must have been full of doubts at this moment, but she could wait patiently. In terms of cultivation and temperament,
, the imperial concubine is indeed inferior to her.
"Ulanara's family really doesn't have a choice. The child Yuxi has a good temperament, but who knows what will happen in the future. It's also unknown whether the child will grow up. You keep her by your side so warmly now, and you wish you could tell everyone.
The children in the world are the future Sifujin. How do you want others to view her and treat her? What good will it do to her future and Yinzhen's future if she develops a proud temper early? No matter how good her temper is, she is praised like that by others.
As I grow up, I will become arrogant and self-righteous in the future.”
The imperial concubine was very frightened when she heard this. She had not thought about what happened above. She only wanted to win over the Uranala family, and she even wanted to warn everyone not to try to take advantage of this child. Now her goal has almost been achieved, but
When the Empress Dowager said these words, she was shocked to realize that the current growing environment may not be really suitable for Yuxi. She looks like a gentle and well-behaved little girl now, but no one knows whether she will be a virtuous and capable Fujin in the future.
have no idea..
Not to mention that the imperial concubine did not expect this, Lan Qi also did not expect this. She only thought that the children were still young and it was normal to play together. Furthermore, Yuxi always said that she was depressed at home and liked the freedom of the palace. She pitied the children who were restrained in their childhood, but they did not
If you think about it, a child as young as Yuxi will now become homesick and want to stay in the palace. This child's understanding of himself is no longer the same as before, and it is also different from other children.
"Furthermore, the elder brother, the prince, and the third elder brother haven't even talked about marriage yet, but you brought a child into the palace and raised it. How do you want the brothers to think about these things?"
The Empress Dowager frowned deeply, and finally warned, "I will send the child back tomorrow, and he will not be allowed to enter the palace from now on. If this child can grow up, he will be worthy of Yinzhen, so naturally you will
It’s my wish, but if she doesn’t do well in the future, I’m afraid you will dislike her first.”
When the imperial concubine suddenly heard what the Empress Dowager said, she was full of dissatisfaction. She felt that the old man had listened to some slanderous words and came to pick her thorns again. But after what she said, she was convinced and she responded continuously:
"I will remember the teachings of the Empress Dowager and will pay attention to Yuxi's growth in the future, but I will never let her enter the palace again, and I will not let her develop a bad temperament of overestimating herself."
