Comprehensive experience of time and space

My Fair Princess (2)

The Empress Dowager in Cining Palace went back to the inner room and changed into regular clothes. She took a quick look and saw Qing'er, so she asked Aunt Gui where Qing'er had gone.

Aunt Gui smiled and said, "Master, Qing Gege was afraid that the little girls would make some mistakes due to their clumsiness, so she went to the carriage to pack your clothes and jewelry in person. She also said she would go to the kitchen to give you instructions, but she is filial." Helping the Queen Mother to sit at the kang table, the little girls had already laid out food.

The Queen Mother ate two pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus cake and drank a small bowl of golden bird's nest, but she couldn't eat any more. The pastries in the palace were indeed delicious, but she still felt tired after eating too much.

He turned to Aunt Gui and said, "For so many years, the Ai family has pitied Qing'er and kept her by their side. In a blink of an eye, she has grown so big. It will be time to get married in a while. Qing'er is a good person, but she is a little naive." , The Ai family needs to make good plans for her. You have to restrain the little girls below to behave like the slaves in Shufangzhai, who go crazy with their master. "

Aunt Gui rubbed her lower body and said: "I obey my orders. Master, please rest assured that our slaves in Cining Palace are the most observant of the rules, and I will strictly control them." She looked at the Queen Mother's face and said: "Master, look at this Do you want to discipline the slaves of Shufangzhai?”

The Queen Mother waved her hands: "Don't worry about Shufangzhai's affairs for the time being. There won't be any big troubles. The more problems they have, the more the Emperor will pay attention to them. If the Queen and Xiao Yanzi hadn't been in such trouble before, there would never be any trouble. Qi is desperate to find the emperor's support every time, but how can two princesses have so many opportunities to meet the emperor? "

The Queen Mother fiddled with her fingernails, narrowed her eyes and said slowly: "Relationships are all about getting along. If the Emperor and Xiao Yanzi fight against the Queen together, the relationship will naturally get better and better. As long as the Queen and we turn a blind eye to the two princesses, they will They can only make a fuss in Shufangzhai and the Imperial Garden. If you dare to go to Yangxin Hall for no reason, the emperor will not condone it. Besides, if you want to deal with someone in this palace, there are many ways to deal with it. Yes.”

After hearing this, Aunt Gui suddenly realized that when she saw the two princesses being disrespectful to the Queen Mother, she was naturally angry and wanted to teach them a lesson. Now after listening to the Queen Mother's words, I feel that it is very easy to deal with them. Now the emperor is doting on them. After a while, the emperor will no longer pay attention to Shufangzhai, and he can use any means to make them drink.

The Queen Mother said again: "The Queen is acting more and more confused now. The Ai family doesn't want to disgrace the Queen. You should give some advice to Aunt Rong when you have time. Don't stare at these two princesses all day long. They are just girls. In two years, Just get married, it’s not worth mentioning, it’s the right thing to teach the twelfth brother. After a while, the Ai family will help the queen get Feng Yin back, and ask them to be careful and clean up their own Kunning Palace.”

After thinking about it and having nothing more to say, he sent all the servants out, saying that he wanted to rest for a while and not to be disturbed.

The Queen Mother sat on the bed, put down the curtain, and began to meditate. In the past, when I was on the road, I was always surrounded by many people, and I never had the chance to practice quietly. She closed her eyes and felt it carefully. The suppression on the soul when she passed through the main time and space was not too great. She should be able to open the seal of the space when she reaches the foundation building stage. However, the aura of the palace is thin, and she cannot move around at will with her current identity. , we can only do it slowly.

In Shufang Zhai, Yongqi and Erkang were anxious and couldn't help complaining: "I have told you to be quiet, why do you still make it so earth-shattering? Now Lafayette is deeply impressed by you."

Xiao Yanzi saw Ziwei frowning, and saw Yong Qilkang walking around there, and said unhappily: "Isn't she just an old lady, and she can still eat me? I didn't mean it, I would have I told you not to go, but you let me go.”

Yong Qi had no choice but to remind the Queen Mother over and over again that she had great power and should not make the Queen Mother angry, hoping that Xiao Yanzi would listen. Erkang also told Ziwei not to be nervous when summoned by Lafayette, to behave well, and to learn the rules as soon as possible while there was still time.

The two of them did not stay in Shufangzhai longer. The Queen Mother returned to the palace and they had their own things to do.

Little Swallow Ziwei felt very uneasy and nervously waited for the Queen Mother's summons.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother seemed to have forgotten them. No one notified them of the banquet, and the two of them were exempted from greetings. If the concubine had not allowed them to leave the palace at will and asked them to be more peaceful recently, they would all have thought that the Queen Mother had returned. The palace is a dream.

It wasn't until Ali and Zhuo came to court with Princess Hanxiang and the emperor gave them a banquet and held a grand welcome party that they saw the Queen Mother again.

The Queen Mother sat at a table with the Queen, her concubine and other concubines. Qing'er was still sitting next to her. The Queen Mother watched the performance on the stage and listened to Qing'er saying interesting things from time to time. She always had a loving smile on her face, and her love for Qing Gege could be seen at a glance.

The Queen Mother called Qi Gege and Nine Gege over and talked for a while. I saw the little swallow Ziwei on the princess seat. They were quite beautiful, but they seemed to be petty. I looked at them casually and then turned around and continued watching the show, as if they were just unimportant people. Of course, Xiao Yanzi didn't understand this. Although Ziwei was a little disappointed, she was relieved that she didn't have to face the Queen Mother.

Seeing this, the concubines and clan members could not understand why the Queen Mother did not want to see these two folk princesses!

In the royal family, the neglect of the queen mother and empress is enough to make a princess feel uncomfortable. After all, the emperor's favor will not last long, but princesses will have to get married sooner or later to live on their own. Without the careful care and guidance of their elders, they will have to live alone. It's out of tune. How will I be in charge of the business in the future? You can't ask for the emperor's support every time. Seeing that the Queen Mother was very fond of Qing Gege, those Fujins whose sons were of suitable age were all thinking about the possibility of becoming their master.

Soon it was time for Hanxiang to perform the dance. The Queen Mother watched the dance carefully and had to admire her. She danced very well. Hanxiang was dressed in white gauze, which fluttered like snow. Among the many men, the unique charm of women was highlighted. Appears to be outstanding and graceful. Looking at Qianlong again, he stared at the stage and was so selfless. It was really embarrassing!

At this time, Hanxiang finished a fierce dance and fell to the ground facing Qianlong. Qianlong stood up and applauded, and stepped forward to help Hanxiang up personally.

Ali walked up to Qianlong, saluted Qianlong, and said seriously: "Your Majesty! In order to show our respect for the Emperor, if the Emperor likes it, I will dedicate this precious daughter of mine to the Emperor!"

As soon as Ali and Zhuo said these words, the entire audience was silent. Everyone was shocked, and Xiao Yanzi's eyes widened in anger.

The Queen Mother saw Hanxiang looking up with a sad look on her face, and thinking of the farce she was about to bring about, she laughed in the silence and said, "Ali and Zhuo are so polite. Speaking of which, the customs in Xinjiang are very different from our Qing Dynasty. , women can also show their grace like this. In our Qing Dynasty, women were never allowed to get close to foreign men, and dancing could only be appreciated by their own family members. "

When Ali saw the noble empress dowager speaking, he quickly lowered his head and replied a few words about customs. The Queen Mother just stopped when she saw the opportunity. After all, she hardly talked to the ministers, and it would arouse suspicion after that.

Qianlong was overjoyed and was about to designate Hanxiang as Xiangfei. He was stunned when he heard the Queen Mother's words. He thought that just now Hanxiang danced with several men and was looked at by the princes and ministers, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart.

So the original Xiang Fei became a noble person and was still given the opportunity to live in Baoyue Tower. Ali didn't know what Qianlong was thinking, but when he saw that Qianlong had made his daughter a nobleman, although his status was not very high, he came back to Xinjiang to surrender, so he was very happy to take Hanxiang and thank him.

After the Queen Mother returned to Cining Palace with Qing'er, she ordered Aunt Gui to send someone to investigate the details of Hanxiang in front of Qing'er, and sent someone to keep an eye on Baoyue Tower, Yanxi Palace, Xiao Yanzi and others.

Seeing Qing'er's doubts, he explained to her: "Xinjiang has always been restless this time. This time they came here to offer sacrifices to the saint after losing the battle. Who knows if Hanxiang came here voluntarily? After all, we were here before. If we are against each other, there will inevitably be casualties in the war. If she harbors resentment, it will be dangerous to keep her in the palace. Moreover, the Ai family heard that there are many strange medicines in Huijiang, and we have to be on guard against Xiao Yanzi and the others. He always likes to be noisy, so it’s always good to keep an eye on him.”

The Queen Mother took a sip of almond milk and saw that Qing'er was listening seriously, so she continued with a smile: "As for the Yanxi Palace, your concubine has been the favorite concubine in the palace for many years. She has great glory and can climb from a foot-washing maid to the concubine. How can she be as weak and kind as she appears to be in charge of Feng Yin and the Sixth Palace? Now that the emperor is interested in Hanxiang and has given her a palace alone, your concubine will definitely take action in the face of this threat. Not young anymore, the Ai family is already looking out for you, consort. From now on, the Ai family will not avoid you. They usually ask Aunt Gui to tell you the secrets of the harem. When you get married, there will be no regrets. If you are protected by your family, you won’t be bullied.”

When Qing'er heard that the Queen Mother was looking at her consort, she blushed with embarrassment. She also heard that the Queen Mother was so troubled to plan for her. She was deeply touched and determined to study hard. She was brought up by the Queen Mother, and she would not care about anything in the future. The Queen Mother cannot be embarrassed anywhere.

In the evening, the Queen Mother withdrew from the crowd and sat in the bed tent to meditate. After all, her body was old, so the speed of cultivation was much slower than expected. It only served the purpose of strengthening the body. Fortunately, the Queen Mother has a lot of free time and can practice every noon and night. However, it is impossible to completely unlock the seal in this life. At most, it can have an ordinary storage function. It is a pity that all the things stored before are placed in the space. The house has been sealed together and cannot be taken out for the time being.

After being instructed by Aunt Gui, Aunt Rong immediately cleaned up Kunning Palace and threw Saiwei Saiguang and some restless little girls out of the wrong place. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that what Aunt Gui said made sense, so she persuaded the queen very carefully.

After all, the queen was not an ignorant girl. She just regarded the emperor as her husband after ascending to the throne and regarded the other concubines as a thorn in her side, so she could not see the situation clearly. Now listening to Grandma Rong's analysis, I know that I lost my sense of proportion and almost caused a catastrophe! After crying bitterly, he corrected his mentality and acted cautiously. He stopped talking about the emperor's affairs and only devoted himself to teaching his twelfth brother.
