379 The fourth elder brother's filial piety is still there
Eunuch Li was so happy that he didn't pay attention to the expression on the prince's face, and hurriedly came to report the good news to the emperor. At that time, Xuan Ye was frowning and looking at the delivery note, with a dark and angry look on his face, which actually bluffed Eunuch Li.
With a jump, the emperor noticed him coming, closed the fold in his hand, raised his finger and said: "Secret treasure."
"Yes." Eunuch Li responded, but he was startled. This information must be a very important matter, but it cannot be made public at the moment. The emperor will keep it for future use. Eunuch Li packed it carefully and spoke to his confidant eunuch.
Several times, they urged each other to bring the careful things back to the capital. While they were busy doing this, they suddenly remembered the good news about Changchun Garden. They turned back and smiled at the emperor who was holding a fan and standing under the window, "Long live my lord."
, a message came from Changchun Garden."
"What's the matter?" Xuan Ye said coldly, seeming to be still immersed in what was said in the book, but then he thought about the imperial grandmother and Lan Qi at home, and immediately turned around and frowned, "Come on, tell me?"
Eunuch Li said with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, Concubine De is happy."
Xuan Ye was stunned, thinking about these words again, and suddenly a smile broke out on his face, as if the gloomy sky broke through the dark clouds and shed golden sunshine. He looked at Eunuch Li again with a smile, and asked again: "Really?"
"?" The fan in his hand was beating against the palm of his hand. Thinking of what had just happened, Long couldn't help but feel happy. Given time, he would definitely get justice for Lan Qi from Yin Zuo.
"The news sent by the Empress Dowager cannot be false. You will know it when you return to Changchun Garden." Eunuch Li felt relieved when he saw that the emperor was in a good mood. He also told the emperor about the condition of Concubine De, "
The imperial doctor said that the empress will give birth in the first month of the year, and the emperor will have a baby brother next year."
How can we make the emperor happy? Eunuch Li knows very well in his heart. As for the matter of the emperor's heir, if there are too many women and too many children, no one will be able to take care of it. If you can really take it into your heart, there are only a few of them, but once you let it go,
In my heart, I can't say anything about it, but in my heart, I value it as much as my family, country, and world.
No matter why the emperor was unhappy today, the good news about Concubine De was enough to offset it. Now it was not only offset, but there was also a surplus. The emperor was happy and said: "I have issued a decree that the local people in Changrui Mountain will be exempted from taxes for two years.
They have made great contributions to guarding this place for me."
Eunuch Li promised repeatedly, and then calculated the days to return to Beijing. Xuan Ye knew that sending a message would be faster than his return, so he hurriedly wrote a letter. A few words of instructions were enough to convey his feelings. In the next few days, the emperor's
She was always in a good mood, and the news that Concubine De was happy again gradually spread, and the ministers who followed her also figured out the reason. They said all kinds of disrespectful things in private, but seeing the emperor and the prince, father, son, filial piety, and happy, it was really
I dare not think about those things.
The night before he was about to return to Beijing, a letter of greetings from his fourth brother arrived from the Forbidden City. Xuan Ye was very surprised. At that time, the prince was standing in front of the case. The father and son were talking about something.
A gentle smile appeared in the prince's eyes. He lowered his eyes to think for a moment, then raised his face and asked with a smile: "Did the fourth brother say something new and interesting that makes the emperor so happy?"
Xuan Ye smiled and said: "Your fourth brother feels sorry for the imperial concubine who works too hard, and begs me to order her to be admitted to Changchun Garden for recuperation. I still think about it. He is so determined to send a letter of greetings, or it would be better to go with the brothers.
It turns out it’s for the imperial concubine.”
The prince felt relieved, but for some reason he immediately became tense again. He said with a smile on his face, "Fourth brother has always been filial."
Xuan Ye looked at the prince and suddenly remembered that his biological mother was buried here, and his adoptive mother who had treated him like her own child and even died indirectly to save him. The two queens had sacrificed their lives for him. Now he was thinking about it.
There was a mother who came to show filial piety but was nowhere to be found. It made me feel sad to think about it, and she said gently: "If you do well as an elder brother, your younger brothers will naturally follow suit."
The prince smiled slightly: "The same is true for the eldest brother, brothers have all learned from it."
When the emperor heard these words, he would think that the prince was being humble and a respectful brother. However, during this period, the eldest brother had a few things that kept him worried. Although he often took Rong to listen to some government affairs, the eldest brother
My brother does everything very well in public, but privately he is quite unruly. He has only been married for a few months and he has taken over the girl in the house.
Although it was nothing to make a fuss about taking a concubine, he also appeared in the Land of Fireworks with other clan members, was restrained in the deep palace for more than ten years, and was released from the Forbidden City at once. The colorful world outside was enough to keep him fresh for a while, and the emperor always thought about him.
Gradually, he began to calm down, but these days he heard someone say that when the emperor was away from the capital, the eldest brother got together with a group of dandies again, and the emperor felt chilled every time he heard it.
"Yinreng." The emperor suddenly said, "You are the crown prince, and the restraints you have on your brothers are more differentiated between monarchs and ministers. Although Yinti is your brother, if he has any shortcomings, you should also give him advice.
He will be your minister in the future. If you can't get used to it now, it will be difficult for you in the future."
The prince bowed his head and responded, and then heard his father say: "After your great-grandfather inherited the throne of Khan, he sat in the court together with the other three of the four great Baylors. He originally wanted the brothers to focus on revitalizing Daijin, but the result was the opposite. I thought that in the end, my brother
If you want to turn against each other, it is better to distinguish between the king and the ministers from the beginning. If you have a proper balance, how can Amma blame you for not having brotherhood? Don't worry too much. You must understand that you are the future monarch of the Qing Dynasty."
The prince's heart was filled with passion at his father's words, and he immediately bowed and clasped his fists: "My son, please remember the teachings of Emperor Amma."
Xuan Ye became happy again and simply asked the prince to return to the palace and invite the imperial concubine to Changchun Garden for recuperation. As the prince, his words had more weight. Although the imperial concubine was not his aunt, she still deserved his respect, and Xuan Ye
He already had other plans in mind, but his cousin's health had not been very good, which made him worry a lot.
A few days later, the emperor returned to the capital smoothly, and the emperor went directly back to Changchun Garden. However, the plan had changed from before. Originally, the prince had only to return to the palace to respectfully invite the imperial concubine to Changchun Garden. Now, after the emperor hurriedly paid his respects to his grandmother, he immediately set off back to the palace.
, everyone thought that he would at least go to Ruijingxuan to see Concubine De before leaving, but Lvzhu and the others craned their necks and waited for a long time, just waiting for the news that the emperor had returned to the palace.
In the room, Huan Chun laughed and scolded several people: "Why are you all so droopy? Your Majesty is not happy yet."
Lan Qi joked casually: "Is it possible that all of you are more looking forward to meeting the Long Live Lord than me? You were reluctant to wear the newly awarded clothes before, so why are you all dressed up today?"
Several people were surprised when they heard this. They all opened their eyes and said, "Slaves don't dare to agree. Slaves have to serve their masters for the rest of their lives."
This was somewhat boring to say, and Lan Qi realized that the joke had gone too far, so she laughed it off. She told them that the imperial concubine was not in good health these days, and it was appropriate for the emperor to go back and see her. Although she was pregnant, her body was
She is so good that no one needs to worry about her, and she is not unhappy at all. The emperor is a kind and righteous person, so he is worthy of her reliance. They are all his women, even if they have different loves, as long as they do not do evil things, if the emperor treats them too much
Being too cold and ruthless would make her lose her temper. Of course, Lan Qi just thought about the following words in her heart.
In the Forbidden City, Xuan Ye returned in a hurry. After taking care of some trivial matters in the Qianqing Palace, he went to the Chengqian Palace. He happened to meet the imperial doctor who was checking his pulse and was about to leave, so he stopped and asked a few questions. When he entered the room to meet someone, the imperial concubine was leaning on the kang. When I closed my eyes and rested my mind, I didn't look too haggard. When I opened my eyes and saw him coming, the joy in my eyes added a bit of brilliance to my face.
"You're fine but you're sick again." Xuan Ye sat aside and looked at his cousin with a smile, "Let Qinglian pack her things and follow me to Changchun Garden to take care of her. You always have to worry about Yinzhen here. He asks you to worry about nothing, and if you still refuse, I will let him stay at my brother's place, so that he won't be worried if he can't see you."
The imperial concubine smiled sweetly and said: "Your Majesty came back all the time just to bully my concubine?"
"I heard from the imperial doctor that you can't waste your energy if you want to rest. Your heart and mind are not well, so why are you trying to be strong?" Xuan Ye was very gentle and turned around to tell Qinglian, "Pack your master's things and leave today."
"I'm fine, I'm fine. If the emperor makes such a fuss, they should say that I'm pretentious. I can't tolerate resting in the garden and hooking up with you. I insist on going over to join in the fun." The imperial concubine still refused and turned away and said, "I want to Go, I'll go with you early in the morning. Who cares about the mountains and rivers of Jiangnan? I don't want to be gossiped about by them in the palace. The fourth elder brother is alone in the palace. What will happen to the children?"
Xuan Ye's heart became hot and he said more gently: "I know you are unwilling, so I came to invite you personally. Everyone in and outside the palace knows that I am returning to the palace to take you to Changchun Garden. You don't give me face like this. Now in your heart, I am no longer as good as Yinzhen?"
The imperial concubine said anxiously: "The emperor insists on saying this, how can I explain it?" But she felt sweet in her heart, knowing that she was being loved, and seeing that Xuan Ye was very serious. Thinking about his words, she softened her face. He said, "I know, I'll go today, but if you ask me to see Yinzhen again, I won't be able to come back for a few months at least, and you don't allow your children to go to the garden."
Xuan Ye smiled and said: "Let me tell you one more thing that makes you happy. You must go to Changchun Garden. Although I originally planned to do so, it was even more because of Yinzhen's intention. He sent me a message behind your back, asking me to take you there. Restoration, you should always fulfill Yinzhen's wish."
"This child was so quiet. In those days, I really thought he was angry with my concubine." The imperial concubine said this with a loving face and her spirits were getting better.
Xuan Ye was very relieved to see her so happy. There were so many ruthless things in the palace, brothers falling out with each other and sisters turning against each other. It was nothing new, but the relationship between mother and son was so lamentable.
However, everything was ready, and when the emperor was about to return to Changchun Garden, it rained heavily and continuously. Xuan Ye was afraid that the imperial concubine would suffer from bumps and wind and cold on the road, so he temporarily decided to stay in the palace for one night. The weather would clear tomorrow in Qianqing. It's not too late to go back after listening to the government, and this night I just rested in Qianqing Palace, just in time to deal with a few important things.
It was windy and rainy at night. Xuan Ye was reviewing a few notebooks under the lamp and felt thirsty. He called out loudly but no one came in. When he called again, someone hurried in. Xuan Ye couldn't help but frown: "A few of us If the moon is not in the palace, all the rules are gone?"
The eunuch was also Eunuch Li's apprentice. He was not usually so undisciplined. Tonight, he happened to be called to the door to discuss something. Now he rushed back anxiously and confessed: "There was something wrong in Jingyang Palace. Zhang promised to throw A fall."
Xuan Ye frowned slightly, remembering that Zhang Jia was also pregnant.
