The Empress Dowager Cixi rarely went out, but the suburban scenery of the head was very novel, sitting in the carriage on the east, thinking that everything was good, so it would be, so she put down the curtain, and said to An Dehai who was sitting in the carriage with satisfaction, "I used to live outside, but I didn't think so, but when I arrived in the palace, I didn't come out for a long time, and the mountains and rivers outside, dragonflies, ants and butterflies are all good, and even the clouds in the sky are better than the good Empress Dowager Cixi in the palace in the garden, "It's really strange." ＋，”

"The master likes these mountains and rivers the most in his heart," An Dehai said with a smile, and presented a hot towel embroidered with golden phoenix snow white to wipe the queen mother's face, "Naturally, I think that although the mountains and rivers outside are big, they can come and go in such places, let alone the Forbidden City." The poem that the master used to read: 'There is no suitable rhyme, and the sex loves the hills' I listened, isn't this what the master thinks in his heart. ”

The Queen Mother put down the towel and looked at the scenery outside the carriage with her cheeks on her cheeks, "I fell into the dust net by mistake, and I have been gone for thirty years, Xiao Anzi, don't look at me, I seem to like this outside, this is also a shallow taste, just a taste, if I am asked to live in this wilderness, I can't stand it myself, pampered for so many years, every day of brocade clothes and jade food, the palace maids and eunuchs are waiting, and I have long forgotten the hard days of the year," she recalled leisurely, "At that time, my father had just donated the official and went out to the south, and the house was really like a wash, Although there is still the dignity of the children of the Eight Banners, but in the end it is very empty inside, and there are many relatives who fight the autumn wind, and my mother has always supported the face outside, never complaining about the poor, and she has to prepare things for me to enter the palace draft, such support can be seen to be difficult, and the food at home is not very fishy. My mother will also quietly ask someone to get some needlework back to subsidize the family, and I will not do needlework since I was seriously ill, "In fact, I have crossed over, so I forgot how to do needlework, so I can only be dumbfounded and clumsy to help thread needlework." "Wanzhen was still a child at that time, and she didn't know how to do it, only her mother and Fan'er did needlework together......" The Queen Mother said this, and suddenly stopped talking, "It's all gone, what do I mention her to do, hey, don't take it to heart." ”

An Dehai was silent with a silver box of gold-woven passionflower containing fruit in his hand, and said for a long time. "Master, don't say that, Fan'er she, under Jiuquan, knowing that the master is thinking about her, she must be happy."

"It's a pity for her, hey, the deceased is gone, Xiao Anzi, you have to be happier." The Empress Dowager Cixi continued, swaying in the carriage. "The first emperor has been Bintian for so many years, but I didn't think much about it before, but over the years, I can remember the past more and more, and I always think about the past these years, whether I am old."

"The master is only in his early thirties. There's old. ”

"Isn't there a saying that if a concubine is over twenty, she will be a sixtieth birthday." The Empress Dowager Cixi shook her head and laughed at herself slightly, "Then I'm in my thirties." Isn't it even older, you called the Internal Affairs Office in the afternoon to send a decree, let my mother, the two children of the Wu family into the garden, I haven't seen them for a long time, I miss them a little, I will be less restrained in the garden, stay with them for a few more days, and by the way, I will also call the Guixiang family in. ”

Guixiang's wife Niu Hulu had just given birth to a boy in the old year, the Queen Mother was quite happy, and personally called Qin Tianjian to choose the name to take, and gave a lot of things to Niu Hulu, so that outsiders don't know that the Queen Mother's brother and daughter-in-law are the face of the Queen Mother, and the people in the Ministry of Rites will also pat on the back, taking the opportunity to celebrate the first birthday of the emperor's first month, Niu Hulu was given a three-grade lady, named "Jiamin", she is filial piety to her in-laws, respects her husband, and no one in the palace is dissatisfied, and the Queen Mother also likes it.

An Dehai responded, the Queen Mother talked a lot, and asked An Dehai how his family was, An Dehai arranged his brother to the internal affairs office as an errand, this matter, the Queen Mother originally knew, An Dehai is very sincere about these things, this is also the place where the Empress Dowager Cixi likes An Dehai, and never hides from herself, "He got married in three years of Tongzhi, and it is not bad to marry a daughter-in-law, and he is also filial to his parents, but he is a little stingy, I go home naturally to eat and drink good hospitality, but if there is anything else, That's absolutely impossible, she often mutters in her brother's ear, she wants to be an official, my brother came to me, I don't want to play a place, what kind of tablet is I, I don't know how many pounds and taels, I haven't read a few books since I was a child, but I just learned a few books with my father and mother, I don't know a few big words, and I still want to be an official? It's okay to lose my face, but I'm afraid of losing the face of the Queen Mother, and besides, working as an errand in the factory of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, this is all first-class, this has silver, and the family has chewing, and I am so dissatisfied! So I gave him a hard lesson, and he never said it again. ”

"Tell him to be at ease on an errand," the Queen Mother picked a piece of melon to eat, "There are also officials in the Internal Affairs Office, as long as he takes responsibility." ”

"Yes," continued Andehai, "before coming to the garden this year, my brother came to me to discuss that he would pass on his second son to me, so that I would not have incense to worship in the future. ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi was slightly surprised, and felt incredible at first when she heard it, but she couldn't help but nodded, "This was originally supposed to be, your brother is willing to think about you, although his ears are softer, his heart is good." ”

An Dehai shook his head, "I refused," and poured the gargling tea from the silver glass gall thermos and dedicated it to the Queen Mother, "The slave has already entered the palace, there is no root, there is no one to support the elderly, I live in the palace, I don't need them to take care of it, and I can't take care of my descendants, if they are willing to provide for me in the future, then live at home, if I don't want to, I won't die." Although my brother and daughter-in-law didn't dare to speak, their eyes were always red in those days, and they were willing to give it to me," An Dehai smiled slightly, "They lost the joy of family, and they will definitely blame me in the future." ”

The Queen Mother was silent, "That's it, since you don't want to do this, forget it, you serve me, it's fate, I can still make you suffer, let's do it, it's just that you are a chief eunuch, the house is not good to live in, and it is not very decent, go back and ask the Internal Affairs Office to renovate your family's house, make your family live comfortably, give something to your family, don't say anything about shirking," An Dehai was about to resign, the Queen Mother raised her hand, "This is also a glory for you, go home in the future, the family will be polite to you."
