"My concubine will lead the way for the emperor." Concubine Hui bowed forward and slowly led the emperor to the eighth prince's house. Inside the door was Bao Yun and a group of palace maids and eunuchs who knelt to welcome him. Concubine Hui suddenly remembered that there was Bao Yun.
People can't help but feel a bit of horror on their faces.
But the emperor didn't care. When he saw Bao Yun, he just said: "I remember that you are the person in front of the emperor's grandmother."
Bao Yun kowtowed deeply: "This is exactly what I am doing. I am so lucky to be able to be remembered by the Emperor."
Xuan Ye glanced at Concubine Hui and smiled slightly: "I can remember all the people who were in front of the Empress Dowager in the past. Even the people in the tea and dining room. As long as I have met each other, I will definitely remember them. They all served the Empress Dowager.
People are the heroes of the Qing Dynasty."
Bao Yun said to the ground: "Your Majesty, I have broken this slave, but I am just a slave."
Xuan Ye asked her to get up and asked casually: "Are you serving the eighth prince now?"
Bao Yun responded: "After the Eighth Age came to Changchun Palace, the servants have been assisting the empress in taking care of the Eighth Age's daily life. The Eighth Age has grown up gradually. The Empress said that the Eighth Age is used to being served by the slaves, so she doesn't want the slaves to worry about other things.
, It is serious to take good care of the eighth prince. It is also the empress's consideration. There are not many things around the eighth prince, but the empress often has to do everything by herself. Now I am free and comfortable."
Xuan Ye looked back at Concubine Hui with a gentle smile: "No wonder Yinsu is polite and measured, and his performance in the study is better than that of his brothers. It shows that you have put your thought into it."
Concubine Hui's heart was pounding, and she tried her best to respond with a smile: "This is what I should do, and it is the emperor who hired a good master for the eighth prince, so that the eighth prince can learn the character he has today."
Xuan Ye smiled and said: "I also have your words and deeds. As for me, father and son only see each other a few times a year, so there is no teaching at all."
Concubine Hui lowered her head and said nothing, while the emperor slowly walked around the room, looked at Yinhu's living room, and sat in front of his writing desk, flipping through the book he usually read, and saw the dense small regular script on the book, and asked
Said: "Is this written by Yinhu?"
Concubine Hui was asked, she didn't know, and she was afraid of being different from Bao Yun's answer, so she insisted not to speak. Sure enough, Bao Yun had a look and immediately replied: "When the Eighth Prince is reading, the pen in his hand is also non-stop."
Yes, I don’t know a few words, so I don’t know what Ba Age wrote. I just know that the characters are small and neat, so I often advise Ba Age not to hurt his eyes.”
Xuan Ye smiled and said: "It's not that it hurts my eyes. It's just that this kid secretly practiced his small regular script for a while. It's the first time I've seen it." He pointed to the side again. There was no professor in the study, and he didn't name the kid to read.
of those books and asked, “Where did these books come from?”
Concubine Hui didn't know either. She was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead. She only listened to Bao Yun's reply: "I sometimes see Brother Eight coming back with one or two books. I only asked him casually once or twice. I remember Brother Eight said yes."
The third elder brother and the fourth elder brother gave it to them."
"Yes, the third and fourth children are already reading these books, but he is still a little early. But if he wrote these annotations himself, this child has the ability to teach himself without a teacher." The emperor was delighted with his son's intelligence.
, slowly turning the pages of the book in his hand, he said to Concubine Hui, "I didn't expect that you have two sons, one civil and one military. I pushed Yin Ti too hard at the beginning. If I knew he was so promising now, why would I be too harsh?
It hurts the relationship between father and son. Now the eighth elder brother is diligent and studious, but his riding and shooting skills are not satisfactory. I think that children's talents always have shortcomings and strengths. Seeing how capable Yinti is now, I gradually look away.
"
Concubine Hui felt a little confused when she heard this, but she knew in her heart that the emperor would tell her "the truth". She did not dare to be too complacent. She only lowered her head and said: "It's all because of the emperor's skill in raising his son. The reason why Yinti is here today is because of the emperor's troubles."
The results come from teaching.”
"Really?" Xuan Ye asked with a smile, waving his hand to Baoyun and others to go down. He got up from his son's desk, walked to his bed, pointed to the furnishings in the room and said, "Brother's house, isn't it?"
It's too simple. Imperial Grandmother always said that simplicity can't lose its dignity. At first glance, this child's house doesn't look like he has an elder brother living in it."
Concubine Hui said hurriedly: "I am a concubine who was negligent. Your Majesty, please forgive me."
But the emperor said: "Over the years, I have forgiven you for so many sins, and this is not the least of them."
Concubine Hui was shocked, her face instantly turned pale, her eyes looked at the person in front of her in confusion, and when she came back to her senses, she immediately knelt down. She was so frightened and frightened that she even gnashed her teeth in hatred.
Zedong said: "I don't understand what the emperor said."
Xuan Ye looked down at her, changing his gentleness in front of Baoyun and others. Although he was not stern, the majestic aura condensed in his starry eyes was enough to force Concubine Hui not to look directly, and she lowered her head deeply.
"Everyone in the palace said that the eldest brother was beaten and scolded by me when he grew up. He is the child who has received the most beatings from me among the brothers. I think about it myself. Apart from the prince, I have indeed devoted myself to Yinti.
He has the most thoughts." Xuan Ye said slowly, walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his back, "He is the eldest son and the boss. If he doesn't do well, the younger brothers will follow suit. But he is like you.
Mother, if not, I don’t need to bother and just leave him to his biological mother for upbringing."
Concubine Hui's body seemed to be frozen, and she couldn't say a word. But even if she could speak, what could she say? Should she argue with the emperor that he was wrong, or should she argue that she had not done anything to apologize?
What qualifications does she have to speak about his affairs? She lost her qualifications as early as more than ten years ago in the dark Qianqing Palace. Living is just for the emperor to give her a breather.
The emperor looked cold and spoke mercilessly: "The prince has no mother, and he is the heir, so I must teach and raise him personally. The third elder brother and the fourth elder brother have mothers, the fifth elder brother is raised by the queen mother, and the children of Concubine Yi are still there.
I don’t worry about those who are in my brother’s office. Even if they can’t learn the best, they won’t learn bad things. But if I follow you, big brother, they can only learn bad things.”
"Your Majesty..." Concubine Hui finally let out a mournful cry, but in the end she couldn't say anything.
Xuan Ye sneered: "It has been more than ten years, and I still remember what I said to you that night, but it's a pity that you have forgotten it long ago."
Concubine Hui was in tears and said with a trembling voice: "I have not forgotten, how dare I forget?"
Xuan Ye leaned over slightly, frowned and looked at her face and said, "You even changed your appearance, do you know? It's not that you have become ugly, but the thoughts you had hidden in your heart are gradually revealed on your face.
, don’t think that the mirror can see everything, what I can see now, you must have never seen it yourself.”
The emperor's words penetrated into Concubine Hui's heart like a knife. She finally couldn't bear it and asked desperately: "The emperor came today just to humiliate me?"
Xuan Ye said: "Yuan promised to mention you when nothing happens. I have been listening to you these past few days. When I think of you, I want to come and see you. And the master of the eighth elder brother praised me yesterday that the eighth elder brother is studious and smart.
I should also come and reward you for teaching your son well."
Concubine Hui smiled bitterly: "But the emperor just scolded me. It seems that I am not suitable to teach the eighth prince. If the emperor feels that it is inappropriate, I am willing to let the eighth prince move into my house."
"Of course they are different." Xuan Ye said indifferently, "If it were not Bao Yun just now, who would answer the few questions I asked?"
"Concubine..."
"It's his blessing that you don't pay attention to the eighth prince." The emperor said, but he stretched out his hand to help Concubine Hui up, with a meaningful look in his eyes, "What should be said, I told you more than ten years ago,
I won’t go into details today. You can enjoy the glory and wealth in the palace peacefully, but you should remind yourself occasionally, stop messing around and ruin the life of your son who has finally grown up. You have already ruined your own.
Do you want to destroy Yinti in your lifetime?"
Concubine Hui's eyes were full of tears, but she didn't dare to cry in front of the emperor. Was Xuan Ye trying to force her to death? After more than ten years of indifference, he suddenly came and stabbed her where it hurts with every word.
"I told you more than ten years ago to take care of yourself, and it's the same now." The emperor let go of his hand and let her stand still, "Be your concubine Hui well, and let Yinti have a decent mother-in-law. Don't
Let him be unable to hold his head high among the courtiers and brothers."
But Concubine Hui still fell heavily to the ground, and sneered as if her heart was filled with despair: "Has that one never done anything wrong?"
Xuan Ye chuckled: "Thousands of good people, if they do something wrong once in a while, the world will attack him and wipe out all his good deeds; if there are thousands of evil people, if they are kind-hearted once in a while, the world will praise him and forget what he once did."
Evil. Vulgar people often pretend to be noble in front of the strong, pretend to be compassionate in front of the weak, and show off their pathetic pride and self-esteem."
Concubine Hui said coldly: "So in the eyes of the emperor, it doesn't matter if she does anything wrong?"
The emperor shook his head, smiled slightly and said, "In my eyes, she is never wrong. Do you understand?"
Concubine Hui raised her desperate eyes: "Just because the emperor likes her?"
Xuan Ye said: "That's right."
When the holy driver left the Changchun Palace, it was just like when he entered the door. Yuan promised to send him out attentively, holding his arms very affectionately, and his words were even more charming and lovely. After all, she is a beautiful woman, and she is still young. Such behavior does not seem to her.
It’s not pretentious, if it were someone with seniority, it would look weird.
"If you like Changchun Palace, you can move here and Concubine Hui nods." The emperor coaxed Yuan to agree to this, but when he turned his back, his face became cold and he drove away in his chariot.
Yuan promised but did not know this. He was still immersed in the emperor's tenderness towards him. He happily ran back and wanted to report to Concubine Hui. Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the eighth prince's house, Concubine Hui threw away Bao Yun.
The crackling sound of the two slaps made Yuan Renwen's legs weak, and he held on to the door frame without daring to move any more. Inside, Baoyun fell to his knees on the ground, and his face instantly swelled with bright red fingerprints, which was shocking.
Concubine Hui was not furious, but said coldly: "Don't think that just because the emperor is a hero of the Qing Dynasty, you can get carried away. You are just a slave. I can kill you at any time."
