12. Northern July (2)

Prince Gong didn't speak, and asked a few maids of the Guerjia clan to change their home clothes, and wiped their faces with well water, only then did they feel refreshed, sat cross-legged on the kang, drank a bowl of ice bowls, and then said to the Guerjia clan, "The foreigner's affairs have not been discussed, there is no way to talk about it, this is coming back earlier, what are you picking up?" ”

"Isn't it just so happened that Myanmar sent jadeite? I thought that this mid-year festival ceremony had not yet been offered, so I picked out a few pieces of the best jadeite, and then found other things to offer to the Queen Mother. ”

Prince Gong's face stiffened, just like the ice chips left in the ice bowl disappeared in an instant under the heat of summer, Prince Gong leaned on the mat, and his hand unconsciously knocked on the kang table, "This Zhongyuan Festival ceremony, it should be sent, but if you give jade, what if you don't have it next time?" There are not too many jadeites in Myanmar, there are no in these years, but I only came once today, and I don't know how, I am afraid that the Queen Mother will ask our government to offer every year, that is, to catch blind. ”

When the Guerjia clan heard what Prince Gong said, he couldn't help but nod his head again and again, "What the master said is reasonable, then pick something else." But in terms of heart, or the prince personally shot a red fox to make a scarf to the queen mother, this is called the heart, compared to others, I entered the palace on New Year's Day this year, and I saw the queen mother around. ”

Prince Gong was slightly distracted, "Red fox?" Then I didn't know what I thought, I stayed there for a while, or the Guarjia clan saw that Prince Gong didn't speak for a long time, raised his head and called a few times, Prince Gong came back to his senses, "You work so hard all day, this jade I asked someone to make a good set of heads for you, and the rest for the eldest sister, she goes in and out of the palace all day long, if she wears a small family, she will definitely be those snobs." ”

"Yes," the Guerjia clan was taken by Prince Gong, and suddenly forgot about the red fox, which worried about his eldest daughter, "Lord Wang." This eldest sister is now seventeen years old, why is there no news in the palace? I also talked to Zhong Cuigong last time, but there is nothing to do, the eldest sister is seventeen years old. ”

Prince Gong smiled dumbly, shook his head, and nodded Guerjia's nose, "You." I'm really worried, and I'm afraid that the eldest sister won't find a good in-law. Don't say it's my eldest daughter, the queen mother in the palace still spoils him, I'm afraid that these eight banner children are at her pick, the queen mother has already said, this eldest sister's marriage, don't worry, you have to pick it slowly, the first one is to the eldest sister herself, we are like this. There is no blind marriage or dumb marriage. ”

"But it's not small after all!"

"The Queen Mother's words are not wrong, I want to keep her for a few more days, I will get married in the future, and when I get to the Ten Princes' Mansion, it will not be so convenient."

"That's good, Amitabha," Guarja said to the Buddha. "It's really strange, the eldest sister is the fate of the queen mother, and she compares Princess Rongshou of Concubine Ligui."

"It's about the fact that the queen mother and the eldest sister have similar tempers, I was worried that she would be wronged when she entered the palace, but now there are two masters in our family." ……

Two girls in flag costumes quietly stood outside the moon and did not speak. Overhead is a slightly partial full moon, shuttling among the clouds, the stars are quietly blinking, the pavilions and pavilions in the distance are brilliantly lit, and the lake is filled with water vapor, just like the Yaotai fairyland, and a group of palace maids and eunuchs stand next to the two girls. They all lowered their heads and didn't speak, the older girl at the head was cheerful, the girl who followed behind had a gentle face, like an empty valley orchid, and the girl at the back was a little tired of waiting, pulling the sleeve of the girl in front, "Sister, is this emperor's heart still very uncomfortable." ”

"This is natural," the girl at the head said quietly, "Tomorrow is a serious day, the emperor didn't see the last look of the emperor Ama back then, no wonder she felt uncomfortable, wait for us to speak but pay attention, although the emperor does not lose her temper, but if we accidentally poke the queen mother's sore spot, it is our unfilial piety." ”

The two people were whispering, and two rows of lanterns came not far away, and the people waiting outside the moon Kaiyun saw the person who came, and quickly knelt down, and even the two girls in flag costumes were half-squatting and saluting, and the person who came was the Tongzhi Emperor.

Emperor Tongzhi wore a crescent white silk robe, and when he saw everyone saluting, he hurriedly waved his hand to let them get up, "Big sister, second sister, is the emperor's mother out?" ”

"Not yet, does the emperor want to go in and persuade him?" Princess Rong'an said.

"Don't dare to go in, the emperor's mother is so strong in the sky, and she doesn't have red eyes easily, this must be very uncomfortable, hmph, it's all blame on Su Shun that guy, come here, Chen Shengwen, you pass my will to the military aircraft department, let Su Shun go to Hainan Island, and then exile Duanhua Zaiyuan to Jilin!"

"Okay," a voice came from the Peony Terrace, and the Empress Dowager Cixi walked out slowly, "What's the matter, why did Duanhua and the others offend you again?" ”

The three of them leaned over and said "Huang Eniang", "Huang Eniang, please don't be sad," Emperor Tongzhi said, "Su Shun and the others tricked Huang Ama into going to Rehe, so that Huang Eniang and Huang Ama couldn't see each other for the last time, it's really damned." ”

"The punishment has already been set in the past, how can it be suddenly added," the Empress Dowager Cixi shook her head, "I know your thoughts, this is good." ”

Princess Rong'an knew the scene of Emperor Xianfeng's death, the girl was sensible early, and she also knew the pain of losing her father, so she hugged the Empress Dowager Cixi, "Huang Eniang, you say, are there ghosts in this world?" ”

Empress Dowager Cixi is okay, An Dehai's eyes around her are shining, and he up his ears and waits for Empress Dowager Cixi's answer, and the eyes of Emperor Tongzhi are also Empress Dowager Cixi, Empress Dowager Cixi thought slightly, "Maybe there is, maybe not, I originally thought it was not, and then I thought there might be, but one thing is clear, that is, the deceased will not appear in the present again." ”

"What about Huang Ama?"

"You're the Emperor?" Cixi didn't know how to answer, but when she looked up at the stars in the sky, she suddenly had an inspiration, "He became a star in the sky." ”

"Turned into a star?"

"Yes, your Emperor Ama has become a star in the sky, protecting you all the time," the Empress Dowager Cixi hugged the three people, raised her face, and her pupils were reflected with shining stars, "What about him in the sky, they are slowly growing up, slowly becoming adults, they love each other, they start a family, the country, slowly become better, emperor, don't be afraid, your emperor Ama is in the sky." Empress Dowager Cixi sighed slightly, "I hope this day can get better and better, of course, I think so, it must be getting better and better." (To be continued.)
