The heavy rain was noisy, mixed with the cries of his sister and the shouts of the palace maids and eunuchs. Everyone rushed over to surround his mother and sister. Wen Xian stood alone in front of the door, feeling that he had been forgotten. The rain hit his face, and the little girl
She felt even more aggrieved. Even though she was worried about falling, she was still so sad that she turned around and left.
But just after he stepped across the threshold, E Niang's scolding voice came from the rain curtain, frightening all the palace maids and eunuchs to move out of the way. Wen Xian turned around and saw E Niang standing there, supporting Huan Chun and Lu Zhu on the left and right, with a look on his face.
Staring at himself angrily: "Where are you going? Are you going to try stepping out again?"
The wet nurses rushed up to hold the princess. Wen Xian was already soaked, and his sister was soaked too. Everyone in the Yonghe Palace was soaked in the rain. Now was not the time to teach the children. Everyone was busy changing their clothes for fear of catching cold.
I got the cold, which spread to everyone in the house and made everyone in the house sick.
After all, Wen Chen was delicate, so her body got hot after being exposed to the rain like this. Lan Qi regretted it and hugged her for a long time. After the little girl fell asleep and her body didn't feel hot, she felt a little relieved.
At this moment, Huan Chun dared to report what was going on. Originally, the two sisters had lunch with E Niang in Yonghe Palace, and then went to Ningshou Palace together, but on the way, the elder sister ran away with the younger sister, and the servants who followed were scared to death.
I didn't dare to report it to the authorities, so I searched randomly at first. Later, the patrolling guards at the city gate found the sneaky little palace maid, who seemed to be trying to blend in with the crowd and ran out. They took her down first. Because she was too young, they called someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Asked, when they saw the two princesses, everyone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs was frightened.
"I'm afraid that you'll be angry, so I really don't dare to wake you up first." Huan Chun said while lying on the ground, "Your Majesty, just blame me."
"They are all loved by you. No matter what mistakes they make, they always go to the Queen Mother first to bring in reinforcements. They all know that there is no need to be afraid if they make a mistake. The Queen Mother is protecting her." Lan Qi couldn't help scolding Huan Chun, but her voice
As soon as the sound rang, Xiao Chen'er started to stir uneasily. She quickly coaxed her softly before letting Huan Chun help her and slowly walked outside.
Just after sitting down, the wet nurse of the fifth princess came to report that the princess had changed her clothes. Lan Qi wanted her to bring her daughter, but when she thought that the little girl was asleep in the house, if there was a dispute between mother and daughter, she would be frightened.
She stood up with difficulty and wanted to see her eldest daughter in person.
Huan Chun advised her mistress not to move too much. Although the fall was not serious, she had old injuries and was afraid that if they were fine now, they would trigger old illnesses later. Lan Qi said that she knew her body well and helped her walk slowly step by step.
As soon as they arrived at Wen Xian's house, the eldest girl was about to run out and bumped into her mother. She took a few steps back timidly. Lan Qi asked her with a cold face: "Are you still going to find the imperial grandmother?"
Wen Xian lowered his face and said nothing. He secretly raised his eyes and saw E Niang's feet moving under her skirt. It was very laborious step by step. She felt very distressed. She was about to say that she was not looking for the imperial grandmother, but wanted to see E Niang.
But the mother spoke first and said seriously: "Huan Chun, go get the cane."
The proud princess was so frightened that she suddenly raised her head and looked at her mother in horror, but the room was empty, Huanchun wet nurse had long since disappeared, only E Niang stood there with difficulty.
"Why don't you come and help me?" Lan Qi had a warm expression on her face and did not show a fierce and fierce look. She said and stretched out her hand towards Wen Xian.
But the proud elder sister cried. With tears in her eyes, she ran over to carefully support E Niang, took her mother inside, and asked timidly in a low voice: "E Niang, where did you fall?"
Lan Qi made a sullen face at her and whispered angrily: "Eniang fell on her butt and slipped down two steps. Do you think it hurts?"
Wen Xian listened blankly, with a smile on his face, and finally leaned forward and acted coquettishly: "Mother, don't you want to take the cane? Mother, I just wanted to see you, not to run to Ningshou Palace.
.”
Lan Qi hugged her daughter and felt that there was no suspicion of fever like her sister. Apart from the panic in her eyes, the little girl stood in front of her with her beard and tail intact. She was already satisfied.
"Xiao Chen'er said that my sister wanted to take her to play at Fourth Brother's house. You are so ridiculous." Lan Qi slapped her daughter on the butt and said seriously, "If I don't tell you, you can't run out at all. Even if you do run out, what will happen outside?"
Do you know what our world is like? What if you meet a bad guy and get kidnapped, and you never see your mother again? Your mother will be so sad that she dies."
Wen Xian lay in his mother's arms and whispered: "What they said is that the fourth brother's home is not far away, just after leaving the city gate."
"I don't know how high the sky is." Lan Qi slapped her butt twice more as punishment. The little girl twisted her body, held E Niang's cheek and said, "I was wrong, E Niang, I won't dare to do it again."
"You are already the eldest sister. When E Niang was your age, she would have to work in the palace as a servant." Lan Qi sighed softly, trying not to be soft-hearted, and seriously scolded Wen Xian, "Every time E Niang said it, she would not do it again.
, but you will always get into trouble and make mistakes. I am not afraid that you will do something wrong. I am afraid that you will get hurt by your mischief. It will be good for you physically and mentally. How can you be willing to call me Niang? You are a big girl, and you are still as naughty as you were when you were a child.
How can it be done? In the future, when you are twenty or thirty years old, your mother will be walking around behind you?"
Wen Xian smiled mischievously and nodded, burying his face in his mother's arms, but Lan Qi gently touched her back and said, "And just now, why did Xiao Chen'er come to act coquettishly and admit her mistake to E Niang, and you turned against her?
He ran away, but the leader is still standing there. Are you thinking wildly again about how much your mother loves your sister or not?"
Sure enough, her daughter groaned and refused to move. Lan Qi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and patiently coaxed her: "This has never happened before. The reason why I sent you to the imperial grandmother, E Niang said that she would tell her a few years later.
You, you always wrong people like this, so you are not afraid of E Niang being sad? You are E Niang's darling."
The princess with golden branches and beautiful leaves has grown up with all kinds of favors since she was a child. The fifth princess was even favored by the Queen Mother to the heavens. The minds of the princesses are far less developed than those of the noble ladies.
Those girls have been waiting for the draft since they were young, waiting to enter the palace or go to other wealthy families to survive. What they face is a life that they must fight for. But the princesses are different. Even if they have to marry far away for the country in the future,
As a princess of the powerful Qing Dynasty, even on the distant grasslands, the majesty of their father and the dignity of the royal family can still shelter them, allowing them to live an excellent life. Therefore, the royal family's upbringing of princesses is far less harsh than that of princes. Wen Xian
When she was eleven or twelve years old, she still looked like a delicate little girl.
Soon Xiao Chen'er came running anxiously in her pajamas, and the wet nurses couldn't stop her. She was afraid that E Niang would hit her sister. When she woke up and heard that E Niang was with her sister, she ran over immediately, but her sister fell asleep.
Lan Qi asked her to sit next to her sister and coaxed her gently: "You guys got caught in the rain. You need to have a good rest. Can Xiao Chen'er obediently help E Niang watch over her sister?"
The little girl agreed sweetly, patted the pillow and said, "Mom, sleep too."
Naturally, Lan Qi couldn't sleep. She was still waiting for someone else to come. As expected, the sky cleared up after the rain and the sky was clear and bright in front of the sunset in front of the Western Mountains. The emperor rushed from Qianqing Palace in a hurry, with an angry look on his face to clean up the little things. Instead, Lan Qi laughed: "It's been several hours, and the emperor still hasn't calmed down?"
This incident caused quite a stir and spread in the palace after the rain. People in the palace had always known that the fifth princess of Concubine De was doted on by the Queen Mother. Her food and clothing expenses for a princess were almost as much as those of Yuqing Palace. .Originally, no one cared about a child, but in the past two years, the princess's share began to be transferred to Yonghe Palace. It was inevitable that no one would not run against Concubine De for taking advantage of her daughter. Now I heard that the two sisters were making a fuss and wanted to run away. After leaving the palace, word naturally spread that the princess lacked education.
It's just that those people were too confused and didn't even look at who raised the fifth princess. Although these words were directed at Concubine De, they angered the empress dowager who was as kind as a Buddha. Not only were they punished for their harsh words, but they were also punished. Two days later, the Queen Mother issued an order, and asked the fourth elder brother to come and pick up his sister to play in the house for a day. From then on, such a day would be arranged every month to let them get closer to her sister-in-law.
Such a public decision is nothing more than a warning to everyone that her Wenxian can only be pampered and cannot be questioned by anyone.
At the beginning of July, Ying Fujin gave birth to a healthy baby boy again. When the Queen Mother asked Si Age to take her sister out of the palace, she asked Si Fujin to take them to Aling'a's house to see her aunt and nephew. This caused a big fuss. , the two princesses went out for a trip, and they were greeted by each other, which was very eye-catching.
The commotion was heard in Zhongcui Palace, and Bu Guiren rushed to ask Lan Qi what was going on. He said worriedly: "You have always been low-key and cautious. Children are showing off like this. Others should gossip."
Lan Qi agreed with a smile on her face, but she knew better than anyone in her heart that since even the emperor did not object, the more public the Queen Mother did, the better it would be for her daughter. In the future, she would keep her daughter in the capital. In one word, the Queen Mother said, Who dares to say no? Xuan Ye set up the chessboard more than ten years ago, and now it is just right to start playing chess.
Originally, Lan Qi had nothing bad to say to Sister Bu, but Sister Bu's Duanjing also married far away. How could she have the heart to say what she had spent so much time thinking about for her daughter not to marry far away.
At this moment, while chatting with Sister Bu, he mentioned Chen Changzai who lived in the backyard of Zhongcui Palace. Bu Guiren smiled and said: "At that time, I blamed you for bringing in new people to cause trouble for us, but after getting along with each other for so long, it is really annoying. Her temperament. She is young, to put it bluntly, Sister Duanbi and I regard her as a daughter."
Lan Qi frowned and scolded: "That can't be done. What do you want the emperor to do? How can she become a daughter?" Then she said, "As for the daughter, I originally planned that if Mrs. Chen was favored, she would give birth to a boy and a half girl in the future. It is a pity that you and Sister Duan will be entertained in Zhongcui Palace. This is a serious child."
Bu Guiren responded: "It's a pity that the emperor has forgotten her. Do you think the emperor has really forgotten her, or is it because she is in our place and it is difficult to get close to her?"
Lan Qi shook her head: "You have to ask the emperor himself, but the other one didn't make any move, it's the same."
The two sisters chatted for a long time, but they did not expect that they would be waiting for the news that Fu Jin was about to give birth to Yuqing Palace. It was only in the evening when Wen Xian and Wen Chen came back happily from outside the palace that the news came out that Fu Jin had given birth safely. The grandson of the emperor, the prince has another son.
Bu Guiren sighed at that time: "After all, it's the prince. The emperor now has two grandsons, both of whom came out of Yuqing Palace. As for the two in Yuqing Palace, they are really destined. It doesn't matter that Wen Fujin came from behind and became favored. Two consecutive
