"Hongfang is ill, and Yinzhen begs me to send two imperial doctors to take a look." Lan Qi responded and brought the warm tea on the table. Xuan Ye's mouth was dry from sleep, and it was neither cold nor hot. Just when he was in the mouth, he drank more than half of the bowl before taking a breath and said, "The people who serve tea in the Qianqing Palace don't know how to look at the eyes. In the winter, the house is so hot that the ground dragon is burning, who wants to drink hot water?"
Lan Qi originally thought that Xuan Ye changed the topic because he didn't want to ask her anymore, but she didn't expect to turn around and hear: "The child is so seriously ill, the doctors outside can't do anything?"
"Perhaps this child is superstitious about the great medical skills of the imperial doctor. The emperor will let me help him with this trivial matter." Lan Qi said deliberately and calmly, but she didn't want Xuan Ye to ask again. She also had her own shame. For example, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, as well as the relationship between son-in-law and husband-wife. How many people used to envy her, but now it has become inexplicable. It is neither good nor bad. Maybe it is very good to live like this in ordinary people's homes, but in the palace Otherwise, they will be blamed for it, not to mention that they were good people in the first place.
Xuan Ye said slowly: "Yuxi is the daughter-in-law chosen by Empress Xiaoyi herself, but she didn't have time to teach her. Maybe even if she is still there now, she may not be able to teach her well. Now I have heard about the things in Yinzhen's family. "
Lan Qi lowered her eyes slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, I am incompetent."
Xuan Ye said: "You can't be incompetent. What will happen to the children if you are incompetent again? I think you are probably afraid that your hard work will not bring back the good things of your children, nor will you be able to change them into what we imagined, so now you are You won’t teach them anymore, right?”
Lan Qi remained silent, laughing in her heart that Xuan Ye had thought about the ways of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, but the emperor said seriously: "Yuxi is a smart child. I think you really teach her well, and you won't be able to teach her. Back then. The Imperial Grandmother is dedicated to training you into what you are now. Let me ask you, twenty years ago you didn’t even know a few Chinese characters, but now, how many Buddhist scriptures have you copied? Who in the government and the public doesn’t know the virtues of Yonghe Palace? Everything is ready? Such a long road, hasn’t it been covered step by step?”
Lan Qi smiled: "I don't know if those ministers would find the emperor strange after receiving such a reward, and they might say something behind his back."
Xuan Ye didn't care: "Then they are disrespectful to Buddha."
"Your Majesty, do you want me to discipline them well?" Lan Qi was very helpless, "I used to worry about everything for them, and even made clear rules for wives and concubines at home. But in the end, it turned out to be like this. I think it's... It’s not that he was too lenient and protective, which made both Yinzhen and Yuxi feel that many things came easily, and that people and things in this world should revolve around them. So they decided to let them go and let them go. You have to toss yourself, even if it is riddled with holes, you will realize your mistake only when it hurts. If you don't want to repent, then continue to suffer."
Xuan Ye nodded: "You are very considerate, but just think that I entrust you to support Yinzhen's family and make his wife a virtuous son, a filial son, and the family home is peaceful, okay?"
Lan Qi stared blankly at Xuan Ye. The emperor hugged her and said, "If you feel it's hard, just tell me and I will make up for your hard work. I will coax you every day."
"It's nice and nonsense." She felt hot in her heart. Xuan Ye had already talked about this. It couldn't be justified for her not to give him face. The emperor must have his own intentions for caring about his son's family affairs. It was hard for her to ask if people didn't know. But it is always a good thing to have a peaceful home. As Xuan Ye said, it is not difficult for her to take care of them, but she is afraid that the children will let down her good intentions, and in the end she will be disheartened, but that is bad.
Xuan Ye smiled: "Then I take it as your promise. From now on, you should pay more attention to the affairs of Yinzhen's family, the health of the grandchildren, and the harmony between Yinzhen and his wife and concubines. I will teach my son how to govern the country."
As for Ping Tianxia, just take care of those families for him."
Lan Qi didn't think much and said casually: "There has to be a time to let go, how can I control them all my life."
But Xuan Ye sighed softly, hugged Lan Qi and buried him in her warm and soft shoulder, saying silently in his heart: Fool, the day I let you go, I will be gone.
Lan Qi couldn't hear what Xuan Ye was saying, but she could feel the faint aura of sadness on the emperor's body. She felt distressed for no reason. She subconsciously hugged him tightly and agreed to his request: "Don't worry, your Majesty, I will definitely support Yinzhen well."
Peaceful home.”
Outside the palace, two imperial doctors hurried to the fourth elder brother's house. The younger elder brother was indeed weaker than his brothers and sisters. His half-sister had been strong since he was a child. Although the eldest elder brother, who was the direct descendant of Fujin, cried often, he had good health.
. In the past, someone instigated that Fujin would not take care of the children. Now that Li and Fujin are taking care of the children, the younger brother is often sick. I thought there should be no more secret rumors, but the trend changed and they said that it was the manpower in the government.
Material resources were exhausted in the main courtyard, and Xiyuan Li and Fujin were often neglected with their children, which caused the little brother to be in poor health.
The more words like this, the colder Yuxi's attitude becomes. It is undeniable that after having her own child, she is no longer so patient and loving towards others, but she has never treated Li Fujin and her little brother badly.
, such words would inevitably make her sad, so she simply ignored it. But if she ignored it, something would really happen, and she couldn't escape her involvement.
The imperial doctor visited the fourth elder brother for a long time and reported to the fourth elder brother that the illness of the younger elder brother should have been brought from the mother's womb. This is a long-term hidden disease. He hoped that the fourth elder brother could be prepared. If he is raised well, he will be well. If he is not raised well, he will be ill.
The child is most likely to die young.
Yinzhen was confused when he heard this, and asked them: "What do you say? Your hospital always reports good news but not bad news. Now that you are talking about this to me, are you not afraid that Empress Dowager De will blame you?"
The two imperial doctors fell to the ground and reported: "Even if Concubine De asks me about it, I will report the same thing. I have seen illnesses like my little brother's in the palace. Before my brothers, several princes under the emperor died in this way."
of."
Next to her, Li Fujin's face was covered with tears, but she did not bother or cry. After hearing what the imperial doctor said, she only asked weakly: "Can I feed him?"
The imperial doctor had no confidence, so he could only console himself: "Although I leave it to fate, maybe if Fujin takes good care of me, my little brother will grow up, but there is no guarantee on this matter."
Li Fujin leaned over with tears in his eyes and said: "Please ask the imperial doctor to treat my little brother." After saying this, he covered his face and burst into tears. The look was heartbreaking. After all, he was his own woman and his own son. How could Yinzhen do this?
He was ruthless and came forward to support Mrs. Li's body and said, "You can take care of the child with peace of mind. If anything happens, I will face it with you."
Li Zefujin raised his tearful eyes, filled with gratitude, and nodded his head.
The imperial doctor needed to return to the palace to resume his duties, but Yinzhen felt that the matter was a bit serious and had to go to the palace to explain to his mother in person, so he sent someone to send a message to Fujin, asking him to come to the palace.
The people in Xiyuan dispersed, and the peace of the past returned to the past. Occasionally, you can hear the cry of the little brother, but the weak little life has no strength. Compared with the loud cry of the big brother in the main courtyard, the cry of the little brother is so loud.
A few sounds really don't mean anything.
Qiaozhu dismissed the people below and quietly closed the door when she entered the room. Fujin was sitting next to the cradle in a daze. She walked up to her and said softly: "Miss, the fourth brother looks very sad. Look at him coming in right away."
Went to the palace."
Mrs. Li suddenly came to her senses, looked at the maid and said: "It has been so long since I came in, and this is the first time he looked at me so tenderly. If Hong Yan has any shortcomings, he will come to comfort me and will not care about anyone's face anymore."
Alright."
Qiaozhu smiled and said: "The fourth elder brother has always been very kind to the lady, but Song Gege is so arrogant and his direct descendant Fujin is so pretentious. You are obviously the most virtuous, but you seem to be indifferent."
Li Fujin smiled bitterly: "But I can't be as flattering and favored as the Song family, and I will never be able to match the status of my direct descendant Fujin in the hearts of Fourth Brother and Empress Dowager De, so I must fight for myself if I can."
As he spoke, he turned to look at the frail child in the cradle, feeling heartbroken and said, "But if Hong Hao can be better, I don't want to act in this scene."
Qiaozhu hissed: "Please keep your voice down, it's not your fault."
It turned out that Li Fujin specifically chose to go to the main hospital today to report that the child was sick, because he didn't want to pick a day when the child was sick, and he didn't want to blame her for ruining the good thing that the fourth elder brother went home to reunite with Fujin. Moreover, Hong Fang had seen him a few times before.
As if she was feeling unwell, she already learned from the doctor that her son was born with a hidden disease, and she was afraid that the child would not last long.
She was heartbroken at first, but seeing her child getting weaker day by day, and seeing Fujin Fa beating Mr. Song severely that day, but her husband showed no reaction at all, she knew in her heart that she could not lose her son and then lose the mercy of her fourth elder brother.
So he deliberately went to the trouble of inviting the imperial doctor, so that the fourth elder brother would hear it with his own ears, and let the concubine in the palace know how pitiful he was.
When the fourth elder brother arrived at the palace, Huang Ama was still resting at E Niang's place. He was afraid that he would not leave today. He told his mother about the child. Although Lan Qi was heartbroken, there was nothing she could do about the child's fate.
I understand that the Empress Dowager once said that after seeing too many sad things about the death of heirs, even sadness will become numb.
Later, the emperor and his son said something that had nothing to do with the child. At that time, Lan Qi went to Ningshou Palace to report the matter to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother had the same attitude, but she still transferred a person from the inner palace in her name.
The imperial doctor stayed at the fourth elder brother's house and devoted himself to taking care of the younger elder brother.
When Lan Qi visited Yonghe Palace that day, her son had already left. Xuan Ye was tired from the journey and had an early rest after eating. The two did not talk much about it, but the emperor left the next day to go to court.
When they all arrived at the door, Xuan Ye told her: "Don't wait any longer for what we agreed to do yesterday. Something like Hongxin happened to happen. Call Yuxi in and teach her how to deal with it.
Embarrassing, don’t ask her to be plotted against."
Lan Qi frowned, but Xuan Ye smiled bitterly: "Just call the imperial doctor over and ask for more information."
"What does the Emperor mean?"
Xuan Ye said disdainfully: "Do you want me to find the doctor that Mr. Li has been asking for to talk to you?"
