2. Bright Moon and Lonely Clouds (1)
The Empress Dowager Ci'an went out of the Chuxiu Palace and got on the soft sedan chair, the little eunuchs walked smoothly to the east, Mei Xin saw that the Empress Dowager Ci'an's face was a little blank, so she asked: "Niangniang, are you worried about the old lady's affairs?" ”
Ci'an nodded, and shook his head again, "Amma's matter is not a big deal, but the position in her heart, Ama is not as good as Li Hongzhang, it is no wonder that Li Hongzhang is simply pulled out by her, and this place in Shanghai is not just an errand for money, and now I am thinking about Tianjin, and I want to let Ama give way, which is also a helpless thing." ≥ ≥ ≥ Xiao ≥ said, "
"Niangniang is also too easy to speak, such a position of governor, the old lady does a steady job, and the errand is cooked refreshingly," Mei Xin was a little helpless, "Most of the silver in the household department and the internal affairs office was brought in by the old lady, and it was piled up into a mountain, and the queen mother didn't say a word like this, and she didn't talk to the mother, and she took the old lady down, which is really disrespectful!" ”
Ci'an shook his head, "This is also a matter of no choice, after all, she is not alone in this court, and it is also a good thing to be able to enter Beijing on an errand." ”
"But where can it be compared to Tianjin, which is close to Beijing, and it is a feudal official, which is much better than being an errand in Beijing." Mei Xin was a little nervous, and found that there were no outsiders, leaning on the armrest of the Empress Dowager Ci'an's sedan chair, covering her mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "Niangniang, isn't it wrong with what you said in Chuxiu Palace?" ”
Ci'an frowned, and interrupted Mei Xin's chatter in displeasure, "Needless to say, she said it and didn't take it to heart, naturally it doesn't matter, you don't have to say more, I have my own plans," Empress Dowager Ci'an raised her head to the towering eaves of the Taihe Palace, "Go back to the palace, have you prepared the things that the emperor wants?" ”
"It's ready." ……
Zhu Yuanxiu followed Wei Jia's out of the Shunzhen Gate, the little maid helped Wei Jia's to get into the carriage, Zhu Yuanxiu turned his head, the city gate of the black hole, his expression was stunned, Wei Jia's shouted: "Yuanxiu, why don't you get in the car yet?" ”
"Yes," Zhu Yuanxiu turned his head and sighed, picked up his skirt, got into the carriage, and before the carriage could leave, a little eunuch rushed out of the Shunzhen Gate, "Stop, stop," Zhu Yuanxiu opened the carriage door suddenly, staring at the little eunuch who came running, and the little eunuch handed Zhu Yuanxiu a package wrapped in blue cloth in his hand, "The Queen Mother gave this box to the county monarch." ”
The two hurriedly got out of the car and saluted, and when the carriage drove out, Zhu Yuanxiu opened the blue cloth package, which was a tortoiseshell inlaid boxwood drawer with four ruyi boxes, this box is with tortoiseshell as the outline, boxwood as the drawer, and inlaid with ivory, meaning "Sihe Ruyi", the box is full of gold and silver nudes, Wei Jiashi was slightly surprised, Zhu Yuanxiu's white and greasy face, "Why did the Queen Mother suddenly give you this?" ”
"My daughter doesn't know."
"This is a rare grace, you can take it for a long time," Wei Jia's love for Yuanxiu, after getting along for a few years, Wei Jia's family has long regarded Zhu Yuanxiu as his biological daughter, "If you marry in the future, you can make a dowry at the bottom of the box." ”
Zhu Yuanxiu's face showed a hint of crimson, slightly shy, "Mother~"
"Haha, I'm afraid I won't be able to make decisions about your marriage," Wei Jiashi said with a smile, "The Queen Mother has an idea in her heart." ”
Zhu Yuanxiu gritted his teeth, swayed in the carriage with his head half-bowed, didn't know what to think, raised his head, his eyes were already red......
The crowd dispersed in the main hall of Chuxiu Palace, leaving only Cixi alone, and the two little palace maids waiting behind her, Cixi people went to the empty scene, couldn't help sighing, the palace maids behind their ears were tipped, and hurriedly asked: "The queen mother is tired?" Would you like to go into the inner sanctum and rest? ”
"I feel a little tired," the Empress Dowager Cixi closed her eyes tiredly, "but don't get in the way, bring me a hot towel and put it on me." ”
An Dehai sent the emperor back, and the Empress Dowager Xi was wiping her hands with a hot towel, and hurriedly stepped forward to serve, "If Niangniang is tired, it is better to call the drama team of the Shengping Department to come in and serve, then Master Gao has lined up many new plays, Niangniang is not yet?" 》”
"Hey, his play is tired," the Empress Dowager Cixi waved her hand, "It's all a story of loyalty to the country, but I'm tired of panicking, I just sang a piece of Mu Guiying in command at Bali Bridge, okay, now the city is full of Yangmen female generals." ”
An Dehai has also read a lot of books now, and hurriedly made fun, "Isn't it good at the top, and you must follow it from the bottom, the mother likes Mu Guiying, and the people below naturally like it."
"That's it, don't say it, if you say it, Gao Xinkui is afraid that she will have to be more careful," Empress Dowager Cixi was embarrassed and found that there were no outsiders, so she continued to tell An Dehai that although he never nodded to Gao Xinkui to do this Xuanhua matter, he wanted Gao Xinkui to take care of the Shengping Department, didn't he just want him to arrange a few plays to unite the people? Although there are some signs of tall and complete, such as Emperor Xianfeng, who has become the appearance of Liu Xianzhu, himself, his own great and righteous character image, he will be disgusted with pimples all over the ground, and he will make a very satisfied appearance at the time, "If the people of the Sixth Palace like it, let them enter the palace to perform."
