When the two Mongolian armies left the capital in great force, I followed Yinzhen back to the Old Summer Palace.
Standing in front of the courtyard door, looking at the plaque on the lintel, I murmured "Xinghua Spring Pavilion". I felt a little dazed in my heart. This is one of the forty scenes of the Old Summer Palace. I always thought that these were only built during the Qianlong period.
.
Seeing me like this, Yinzhen beside me said: "Why, I don't like it." I shook my head, stepped into the courtyard, and meandered forward. Along the way, I walked past low houses with sparse hedges, staggered east and west, surrounded by apricot trees, and the atmosphere of autumn.
Although it was thick, it still looked like clouds. There was a small garden in front of me, where vegetables and melons were grown. Looking around, I saw an idyllic scenery. I felt happy and walked to a tall pavilion. I looked around, looking up and down, to the west of the sky, to the east and west of the building.
Facing the lake on both sides, there is Xinghua Village in the west courtyard and a vegetable garden in front of the museum.
When I closed my eyes, I could feel the fragrance of fruits and vegetables. He held me in his arms from behind, put his head on my shoulder, and softly chanted: "The fragrant red snow rhymes in the empty garden, and I am willing to let the cold plums occupy the gall bladder."
I love Huaguang Chuanyi Garden the most, and I take monthly orders to inspect the agricultural scriptures.
It is the Immortal Pavilion of Liang Xiaoshuo, so it is better to carry wine in Xiaoyin Pavilion.
In the middle of the night, a plow has brought enough spring rain, and in the morning a clog-singing tree comes to the side of the garden."
I opened my eyes, looked at the scenery like a landscape painting, and said, "My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, and Yinzhen is the one who knows me." He tightened his hand and said in my ear, "As long as you like it." I sighed softly.
Said: "As Yuan Ye said, 'The best place to choose materials is that it is surrounded by fences and has mulberry trees everywhere.' That's probably it. I like it here very much."
I was immersed in this and couldn't come back to my senses for a long time. After a while, I was shocked, broke away from his arm, turned around and looked at him and complained: "Didn't you say you can't touch Zhenxi Pavilion?" He stared at me and shook his head helplessly,
He held my hand, walked down the steps, and walked forward along the winding road.
Looking at the familiar yard from a distance, I whispered: "The road is really strange." He smiled softly and said: "Several yards have been built in the garden, and the others have all changed. Only this one has changed."
In order to make it blend into the pavilion, the royal craftsmen in the palace put a lot of thought into it."
He quickened his pace and stepped into the small courtyard. After looking at it for a few seconds, there was no change at all in the courtyard.
With a 'squeak', the door of the house I lived in opened. Qiaohui was standing at the door holding Honghan in her arms. When she saw me clearly, Qiaohui's face was filled with joy, and she walked towards me and said: "Miss, can you
I’m back, and my little brother has grown a lot taller. My servant has just returned to the garden with my little brother. The house where the young lady lived before is now my little brother’s room..."
Listening to Qiao Hui's ramble, I took Hong Han, held him up, and looked at him carefully. He had indeed grown a lot taller, and the little guy looked at me with his eyes wide, as if he didn't recognize him.
I was the same. Just when I felt depressed, the little guy actually grinned and smiled. Before I could feel happy, he grabbed the hair by my ear, pulled it hard, and said "Ahhhh" excitedly.
I can't understand the words either.
I finally let go of his hand and let him lie in my arms, keeping his hands away from my face. But I saw Yinzhen standing at the door of the courtyard with a smile in his eyes. Seeing this, Qiao Hui hurriedly bowed.
He bowed his head and retreated gently.
He came over, reached out to take the child, and gently threw him up. I was shocked and was about to complain, but Honghan chuckled.
Standing under the tree, looking silently for a while, I felt a little bit sad. Will this happy life only last a few years? I took two steps back, leaned on the tree trunk, and watched the father and son quietly.
He was smiling and teasing Hong Han, without any of his usual cold expression. Hong Han's two little hands were waving in the air, and he was still laughing.
My eyes were hot, and I lowered my head and quickly wiped the tears from the corners of my eyes. When I raised my head, I found that he was holding Han'er and looking at me thoughtfully. I straightened up and walked towards him: "There is dust on the tree, and it happened to blow.
In your eyes." He looked calmly, looked at me for a while and said: "These days, why are you so upset and always inadvertently showing the expression you just had? Ruoxi, what's wrong with you?"
I took a deep breath, stretched out my hand to Honghan and said with a smile: "What makes me sad, you will know right away." Honghan looked at me, then at him, his little face suddenly turned, and his hands tightened
I hugged his neck. I sighed heavily, looked at them with a smile, turned around and walked towards the inner courtyard.
I had just taken two steps when his deep voice came from behind: "Ruoxi." I paused and turned around, only to see his brows furrowed. He looked at me silently for a while and said, "You are perfunctory with me."
A big smile appeared on his face, and he was about to speak when he saw Gao Wuyong, who had an anxious look on his face and walked over quickly with small steps. Seeing his expression, I felt my heart twitch for no reason, not knowing what was going on.
I walked over and stretched out my hand to Honghan, but this time the little guy obediently let me take it. Yinzhen looked at Gao Wuyong, with no emotion in his eyes, and said to him calmly: "What's the matter?" Gao Wuyong's eyes widened.
He closed his eyes, flicked his sleeves, and knelt on the ground with a bang, sobbing: "Brother Sixty is dead."
Suddenly, she was stunned. This is the only child left by Concubine Nian in the world. Her name is Fuhui, her name is Sixty, and she is only eight years old this year. After Concubine Nian died, she was raised by Queen Nala of Kunning Palace.
She has never had a child, but she loves this elder brother very much. Besides, the child is usually in good health. In the Changchun Garden a few days ago, Nala didn't hear anything about him.
His heart was filled with shock and pain, and he stared blankly at Yinzhen. He stood there with his fists clenched, his face pale, his thin lips pursed tightly, and the sad look in his eyes made people dare not look further. In the deathly silence, he
He asked coldly: "How did you die?"
Gao Wuyong wiped the tears from his face with his sleeves and replied softly: "Fell into the water."
My heart has been tugging at him since he entered the palace.
This morning, after getting up, I felt anxious and helpless, my mind was like a mess, and I paced silently in the room.
"Your Majesty, I have just returned from the palace and have something important to report." Just as he was anxious, Ju Xiang's voice came from outside the room. He felt inexplicably panicked, so he walked over and opened the door.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is in Xinuang Pavilion. You haven't eaten for two days and you haven't summoned anyone. The Queen is also ill in bed. Gao Wuyong asked your servant to tell you whether your Majesty will go to the palace." Ju Xiang stood at the door and sighed.
Having said that, I feel heartbroken. He has had very few children since he was born. After losing one son, he lost another one in succession. This kind of pain is probably going to crush him.
Stepping out of the room, he said as he walked: "Hurry and prepare the car, I will enter the palace right now." Juxiang behind him hesitated and said: "Would you please tidy up your appearance?" I was startled, and then I realized that I was still wearing single clothes.
.Go back into the room and ask Juxiang to do a simple grooming.
Outside Xinuan Pavilion, the black crowd knelt on the ground. The voice at the front sounded like Zhang Tingyu: "..., Your Majesty, your body is related to our Qing Dynasty. You can't go on like this." As soon as he finished speaking, all the ministers
But they said in unison: "I implore the emperor to put the country, the country, the country, and the country as the most important thing. I sincerely implore the emperor to put the country, the country, the country, and the country as the top priority..."
One sound after another, one sound louder than the other, but there was still silence in the pavilion.
Gao Wuyong stood bowed outside the door with a grimace on his face. When he saw me, his face lit up and he quickly came over and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor has not eaten for two days and does not allow the servants to come in to serve."
I secretly sighed. It was a great time and a blessing. Two people left in two years. This kind of heart-wrenching pain could not be eliminated with just a few words of advice.
Staring at the closed door, my heart ached, and I asked: "Where has Prince Yi gone?" Gao Wuyong replied: "The prince has been busy with the affairs of the court. In addition, the sixty-year-old brother fell into the water.
The matter will be investigated personally by the prince."
I was frightened in my heart. Could it be that Sixty's drowning was not an accident? I turned my head and stared at him and asked, "Do you have any clues?" He trembled and replied, "I haven't heard any news. The emperor ordered the prince to investigate this matter."
, no one is allowed to interfere.”
He withdrew his gaze, looked at the people outside the room, and ordered Gao Wuyong: "Order them to disperse." Gao Wuyong bowed and said "yes", walked to the person next to Zhang Tingyu and spoke for a while. The person turned around
Look, it turned out to be Prince Guo Yunli. He stood up and walked over. After the two greeted each other, he said: "The emperor's sister-in-law, please go in and persuade the emperor's brother."
I nodded and said: "You all should go back. I'm afraid I won't be able to support you if this continues." Yunzhi sighed: "Then I'll let them go. I still have to go to Kunning Palace. Fuhui will be here."
Just like the Queen's biological son, the Queen will probably be heartbroken when he leaves." After saying that, he sighed heavily, turned around and walked towards the ministers.
After everyone left in silence, I stepped forward and gently opened the door and walked over. Yinzhen was sitting at the table with his back to the door. He was completely motionless, except for his braids that were a little messy. He stared at the man who was sitting upright.
On my back, the grief that had been suppressed for two days could no longer be suppressed, and tears fell in large numbers.
After standing for a long time, he wiped his tears and suppressed his sadness. He walked over, knelt on the ground and hugged him. He put his face on his back and said softly: "Don't hold it in like this. Let out your discomfort." He was still as calm as ever.
Just like before, sitting still, I gently shook his body and said, "If you torture yourself like this, will Fuhui survive?"
I felt his body tremble and his tense back relaxed. I stood up and walked in front of him. His eyes were filled with pain and his thin lips were dry. I knelt down and stroked his face,
Tears fell uncontrollably again.
He looked at me silently for a while, wiped the tears from my cheeks with his hands, stood up slowly, walked to the bed without saying a word, and lay down with his clothes on. I followed him and covered him with a thin quilt. Then,
He hurried out and walked towards the imperial dining room.
When I walked into Xinuang Pavilion with a bowl of millet porridge, I found that he was not in bed.
Step out of the room and walk towards the Yangxin Hall.
Gao Wuyong, who was standing at the door of the hall, hurriedly took two steps forward, took the porridge, and was about to salute. I waved my hand to stop and asked him: "Who is in the hall?" He glanced inward and whispered back: "Prince Yi.
"I took the porridge and walked into the main hall.
"The regulations for ships going overseas have been formulated and are just waiting for the decree to be issued." As soon as he entered the hall, he heard Shisan's voice. Yinzhen's expression was calm. After listening silently, he said calmly: "Then let's go down.
Let’s carry out the order first.” At this point, he frowned slightly, his indifferent expression faded, and he asked coldly: “How is the investigation going?”
Thirteen was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, Fuhui accidentally discovered that the fish in the lake were really beautiful, so he asked the queen to go and catch them that day. That's what happened. My brother has already
After checking everyone who was in the garden at that time, it was found that the palace maids and eunuchs were all far away. Fuhui was only surrounded by the Queen and his personal maid, Lan Dong. After Fuhui fell into the water, Lan Dong was the first to go into the water to rescue her, followed by the eunuchs.
They all went into the water, but it was still too late, and by the time they found Fuhui, he had already died."
Lan Dong, also known as Lu Lanxi, was present at both accidents. Is this just a coincidence or does she really have a problem?
She stood there, thinking silently. If she had a problem, why did she do so much, and for whom, she should have a reason, and what kind of hatred could make her resort to such cruel methods.
Is it targeting Nala? Or..., I don't dare to think about it.
"Ruoxi." When I first heard Yinzhen's voice, I was stunned. I came back to my senses, looked at him and said, "I cooked some porridge. You haven't eaten for two days. You need to eat some soft porridge to cook it down."
I put the porridge on the case and glanced at the calm faces of the two people. I was secretly sad in my heart, why did these things happen one after another, and why were the peaceful days always so short. But when I thought about it carefully, I realized that
He shook his head and smiled bitterly, wondering what happened to him. Things in the palace have always been like this, there is not much 'why'.
Suddenly I felt that the hall was quiet. I looked at the two of them suspiciously. Yinzhen's face was still calm and he stared at me silently. Thirteen glanced at me, withdrew his gaze and stared at the corner in front of him, motionless.
Seeing that I had come to my senses, Yinzhen said slowly: "You go back first." I stared at him silently, knowing that he wanted to tell Shisan to do something, but he didn't want me to know. I looked away, lowered my head to stir the porridge, and then
He took a deep breath, stared at him and said: "No matter how uncomfortable you feel, you must cherish your body and don't let the people who love you feel hurt." There was a hint of warmth in his eyes, but after a moment, his expression remained as though it were cold.
Ten Thousand Years of Xuanbing is so cold that people dare not look directly at it.
I stood stubbornly and he sighed softly, picked up the bowl and drank a few sips. I walked down the steps and walked quickly outside the hall.
After leaving the main hall, he turned around and entered the tea room. In the room, an unfamiliar palace maid was dozing off, while another one was sitting with a book spread out on her lap, looking attentively.
Perhaps I felt that someone had come into the room, and the sitting maid raised her head. It turned out to be Xiaoling. When she saw it was me, she stood up in a hurry and saluted. I waved and said, "Make me a cup of tea, and then go out and watch. If Prince Yi
Get out of the hall and get back to me in time." After she said 'yes', she quickly placed the tea beside me and walked out quickly.
After taking a few sips, the fragrance lingered on her lips and teeth, and she was secretly surprised that she was actually a good tea maker. She stood up and picked up the book she had just been reading, and the 'Tea Book' came into view. It turned out to be the work of Lu Yu, the holy tea of the Tang Dynasty. She sighed softly.
, the past things suddenly came to mind.
She was lost in thought, and with the sound of subtle footsteps, Xiao Ling came in and said: "Your Majesty, the prince has already left the hall." I stood up, handed the book to her and said: "Whether it's making tea or making tea, as long as you drink tea together,
People's tastes are good." She looked happy, bowed and said: "Thank you, Madam, for the advice." I nodded, looked at the palace maid who was still awake and said, "Don't come to duty when you are not feeling well.
The emperor is on duty and cannot tolerate mistakes." After saying that, he stepped out.
Thirteen walked slowly, and I caught up with him, walking side by side with him.
The two were silent for a while, and then he said, "What are you waiting for me?"
I was slightly startled, turned my head and glanced at him, and he added: "The little palace maid serving tea in front of the emperor turned around when she saw me leaving the palace door, and then you followed me. Aren't you waiting for me?"
I thought about it secretly for a while, but couldn't help but ask: "Is there nothing wrong with that Lan Dong?"
Thirteen stopped and frowned, "Why do you ask that?"
I sighed: "Landong changed her name to 'Lv Lanxi' before she entered the palace. She learned kung fu and medical skills from her apprentice. She and Zhang Yuzhi are brothers and sisters. It is said that although kung fu is not very good, her skills are still much better than ordinary people, and her medical skills are very good.
, has done a lot of research on the interaction between medicine and food, and the imperial physicians in the palace may not be better than her in this regard."
Thirteen pondered for a while and said: "Do you suspect that she had something to do with the Queen's illness last time, or that it was simply because of her that the Queen got that illness?"
I shook my head lightly and said, "I'm not sure, I just have suspicions. Maybe the queen is really sick, but when the imperial doctor was treating her, she did something to make the queen's illness worse."
After listening to my words, Thirteen fell into deep thought. After a while, he said, "Brother Emperor, don't you know?" I sighed, "This time it's about Fuhui's life. How can I tell him something that I'm not sure about? Besides,
I saw Lu Lanxi twice in front of Ba Ye's house, but I don't know whether she has anything to do with Ba Ye."
Hearing this, Shisan shook his head and said with a smile: "She won't be from Bage's house, you don't have to worry about that." I stared at him and asked: "How can you be so sure?" He sighed:
