This was not the first time that Concubine De heard similar words. Just as she was thinking about how to deal with it, a palace maid happened to come to serve new tea. She asked casually: "Who followed Sifu Jin to Chuxiu Palace?"
The palace maid responded: "Aunt Huanchun followed, saying that it was a longer way to Xiliu Palace."
Concubine De nodded, ordered the maids to leave, and then invited Concubine Rong to have some tea as well.
Concubine Rong picked up the tea cup, thought for a while, then put it down, and said: "Did you know that the Crown Princess goes to Yinghua Palace every now and then, and she always brings many eunuchs and maids with her? Even though she is supposed to have the style of a Crown Princess, it is too ostentatious.
, the emperor often has only Mr. Liang and a few young eunuchs and princesses around him..."
"Sister, we have agreed not to mention anything about the East Palace matter." Concubine De said kindly, "We can't go behind anyone's back. We have violated the rules first."
Concubine Rong simply opened up and said: "Someone saw the prince behaving strangely, walking in the palace wearing a eunuch's uniform. The princess went to find him, and then mixed in with the eunuchs and took him back to Yuqing Palace. To be honest, I knew it.
I'm afraid it's already been spread in the palace, but everyone doesn't dare to discuss it because of the East Palace."
"Sister Rong..."
"How many times has your Sifujin been to Chuxiu Palace? Why did Huanchun follow her so well? Isn't it because he was afraid of going west and bumping into the crown princess who was going to Yinghua Palace to arrest someone?"
Concubine De sighed deeply and stretched out her hand to hold Concubine Rong: "Sister, don't talk anymore. You and I will pretend that we have never said anything or heard anything."
However, despite being accompanied by Huan Chun today, Yuxi did not meet the Crown Princess. He met Concubine Tong in Chuxiu Palace, and did not see anyone on the way back to Yonghe Palace.
At this time, Concubine Rong had already gone back, and Concubine De was still embroidering the handkerchief. Yuxi came up and saw that there was nothing for her to do, so she wanted to buy a new cup of tea for her mother-in-law.
"No need, I drank too much tea and couldn't sleep at night." Concubine De put down the embroidery bandage and asked, "Do you want to try a few stitches?"
Yu Xi said: "I'm afraid it's not done well. Mother, for whom did you embroider such a delicate veil?"
Concubine De was also tired. She got up and wanted to go out for a walk. Yu Xi hurriedly stepped forward to serve her, but was stopped by Huan Chun. Another maid came to help her put on her shoes.
"You don't have to worry about it. My mother is still young. There will come a day when she becomes too old to bend down. You can come and serve me again."
"yes."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went out together. It was almost noon. The sun was bright and dazzling. Although there was not much warmth in the cold wind, my heart felt bright when I looked at it.
"That veil is for your second sister. Concubine Rong knows that I can't embroider it well, so I just want to express my thoughts and blessings." Concubine De asked her daughter-in-law with a smile, "Concubine E is a blessed person, right?"
Yuxi nodded repeatedly: "Of course you are a blessed person."
Concubine De looked at her daughter-in-law lovingly: "I was somewhat blessed originally, but now that Yuxi is here, my family is even more blessed."
Yuxi smiled shyly, and then continued walking with E Niang until they reached the Royal Garden.
"When I came back from Changchun Garden, I saw that it was like playing house here. No wonder the emperor loves to go to the garden and said that he would always live there in the future." After entering the garden, Concubine De stopped and looked around.
He smiled and said, "The emperor said that he would build another garden near Changchun Garden and move all the gardens from the south of the Yangtze River that he likes here."
Yu Xi smiled and said: "Now my younger brothers and sisters are happy. They can see the scenery of Jiangnan without going to the south."
Concubine De said: "Just thinking about it, even if we start construction now, we will only be able to see a rough appearance in three to five years. In seven or eight years, fourteen will be a big boy."
Speaking of her younger brothers and sisters, Yuxi talked about what happened a few days ago. Concubine De praised her daughter-in-law's handling of the matter. You must know that Concubine Yi's temperament has not changed for more than ten or twenty years. Even the emperor tolerated it. There is really no need for others to do so.
Compare with her.
Concubine De said: "But if you are really wronged, E Niang will never stand by and watch, so if anything happens in the future, there is no need to be afraid of them."
Yuxi agreed, and also told her mother-in-law about the hurried appearance of the princess she met that day. She had some selfish motives and wanted to find out her mother-in-law's attitude towards the East Palace.
After hearing this, Concubine De thought for a moment and then asked: "Do you often talk about the prince at home?"
Yuxi told the truth: "We rarely mention it, let alone discuss it. Yinzhen said, we shouldn't talk about anything in the East Palace. This is how my daughter-in-law controls Fujin and the others, as well as the servants."
Concubine De said: "It's fine if they don't talk about it, and you don't need to talk about it from ear to ear. If you talk too much, it will arouse people's curiosity, and if it spreads, it will be troublesome."
Yu Xi agreed and walked with her mother-in-law for a while. Unexpectedly, deep in the garden, there were several young concubines playing here.
Several people were very panicked when they saw Concubine De, and they all knelt down and saluted. However, they were no more than a few years older than Yu Xi and were as young as flowers, so they were locked in this deep palace.
The fourth concubine at least took advantage of the small number of people in the harem, and the emperor could see them often. Now there are countless beauties in the harem. Some of these young ones have never even met the emperor, let alone expect the emperor to remember them.
After receiving the gift, Concubine De separated from them after a few gentle greetings and took Yuxi back to Yonghe Palace. But when leaving, Yuxi couldn't help but look back.
"Child, what are you looking at?"
"No, it's nothing..." Yu Xi hesitated for a moment and then said, "One of them looks familiar, but if you look closely, you must have mistaken him. There is only a slight resemblance."
Concubine De asked curiously: "Which one is it like?"
Yuxi explained: "For example, Guo Luoluo, the granddaughter of Prince An's family, met me on the way back to my brother's house from Changchun Garden that day. Speaking of which, I have always wanted to ask E Niang, should I visit my relatives from Prince An's house occasionally?
Just say hello."
Concubine De shook her head: "You have serious uncles and uncles. Apart from Prince Yu's Palace and Prince Gong's Palace walking around a lot, there is no need to have any other interactions except for happy events during the New Year. During the New Year's Day, send servants to give gifts.
Enough."
It would be great to have less human contact. Yu Xi breathed a sigh of relief: "If E Niang said this, I feel at ease."
However, Concubine De stopped and asked: "The Guo Luoluo family you mentioned was born from Yue Le's Qi Gege?"
Yuxi nodded: "Exactly."
Concubine De couldn't help but said: "We will see each other more often in the future, so if you help her, it is considered fate."
Yuxi was smart, and after a moment's thought, he understood what E Niang meant, and said, "Is this young lady going to be a blessing to the seventh or eighth elder brother?"
Concubine De said: "This is the eighth elder brother Fujin, and he is a good match in age. The seventh elder brother Fujin is Hadanara, the daughter of Vice-Capital Faka."
Yu Xi silently made a comparison in his mind and said: "In terms of family background, the eighth elder brother's family is much more noble than the seventh elder brother's family."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law continued to move forward, and Concubine De said: "After all, she is the granddaughter of Prince An. Qi Gege was also granted the title of Princess Heshuo. Guo Luoluo's family background is indeed more noble, but these people are no longer here. Now An, who has ascended the throne,
Although the county prince is her uncle, he was not born from the same mother. Everyone in the clan knows that the old princess hates Qi Gege's biological mother, and no one in the family is close to her."
Yu Xi listened quietly, but Concubine De laughed at herself after talking for a long time: "Do you think that E Niang also likes to talk about these things about her mother-in-law and mother?"
"No, no, it's amazing that E Niang can remember so many things about the clan. I can't remember them either."
"Take your time, how old are you."
Yu Xi smiled and said, "Mother, we also miss Tong."
Seeing that her daughter-in-law was so cheerful and generous, Concubine De liked her very much. She held the child's hand and said as she walked: "Dai Guiren owns this son. The seventh brother's feet are congenitally disabled. Dai Guiren only wants a stable and smooth life for his son."
, so when choosing Fujin, one must also choose from a Taiping family. After the emperor mentioned it to me, I asked someone to investigate. Mr. Hadanara is a virtuous and gentle child. Your emperor, Ama, paid more attention to choosing his daughter-in-law than his concubine.
"
"Then why..."
"You said you should choose someone who is not fair for Eighth Prince?"
Yu Xi nodded, then shook his head: "I don't dare to speculate."
Concubine De was calm: "It's not that the granddaughter of Prince An's family is not good, it's that she is not suitable for the seventh elder brother. I will only tell you this. Otherwise, even you may have misunderstood it, and outsiders will take it for granted."
Already."
Yuxi lowered his head and said: "I'm confused, I shouldn't think that way. Huang Ama will naturally choose the best girl for his son. Outsiders say that Sanfujin is not good, but Erchen feels that at least they two
