Views:

Nalan Chunxue was unwilling in the end, she came out of Shoukang Palace, went to Chengqian Palace, and cried to her successor. Afterwards, he only comforted her a few words, and did not intend to call the shots for her.

After Nalan Chunxue left with hatred, Yuan Chunwang came out from behind the screen, and said lightly: "Concubine Ling's actions today are just a fox and a tiger, using the empress dowager's momentum to beat Shu Concubine and shock the harem. From now on, the Yanxi Palace will be extended The Lord has no holy favor, and no one dares to bully easily, after all, behind her, the Queen Mother is still standing."

After leaning back in the chair, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes: "It seems that the queen mother is determined to embarrass this palace... Yuan Chunwang."

"The servant is here." Yuan Chunwang stepped forward.

Afterwards: "How did the investigation go about what Wu Shu said?"

Yuan Chunwang bent down, a long black braid dangled from his shoulders, like a sword spike hanging down from a sword, his scarlet lips were pressed against the ear of his successor, and he whispered a few words in a low voice.

After listening to this, a sharp sword-like smile slowly bloomed on his face: "Well done! If the skin does not exist, the hair will be attached, it is wonderful!"

Yuan Chunwang: "Would you like to..."

"No, you can't deliver this letter." Then he shook his head, "Bengong has a better candidate."

A few days later, Hong Zhou entered the palace to pay tribute to Concubine Yu.

People go to the empty building, the side hall of Shoukang Palace, where Concubine Yu used to live, now there are only one or two old people left to sweep and sprinkle. When Hong Zhou came, he happened to see one of them. Just the package to go.

"What is this?" Hong Zhou looked at the package in his arms.

The eunuch said: "If you go back to the prince, they are all old things of Concubine Yu, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs has set up another Jing'an Hall for storage."

Hong Zhou: "Since it is the old thing of the mother-in-law, I will report it to the Emperor Ming and bring it all back to the palace. It can be regarded as a souvenir, so let's put it down."

The eunuch was hesitant, but after staring at him, he obediently put everything down.

With the burden, Hong Zhou did not rush to leave. He walked around the room, stroking the tables and chairs in the room, his eyes filled with nostalgia.

"Your Highness." The little boy who accompanied him into the palace observed his words and expressions, "How about you also collect other old things?"

"...Alright." Hong Zhou nodded, "In the past, I was all light, and I could often come to pay my respects, but now I often go out to Beijing to do business, and after a few months of walking, I have no old things around me, so I might as well pack them all and take them away. , so as not to get bored every time I come.”

The little boy smiled and said, "Who dares to be angry with the prince?"

"Of course it's that bitch of Concubine Ling!" Hong Zhou said solemnly, "In the past, I coaxed the emperor so that he couldn't find the North, and now he is flattering the Queen Mother everywhere, but this person has so many tricks, it's really hard to deal with, it's better to keep out of sight!"

Speaking of hatred, he couldn't help but slapped the table with his hand, and by chance the bag was placed on the table, and the knot on it was so loose that it jumped to the ground and the contents leaked out.

On top - is a letter.

Hong Zhou was stunned, lowered his head to pick it up, opened it, and his face changed greatly.

The little boy came over and said, "My lord, this is..."

Hong Zhou quickly closed the letter and sneered: "I really didn't expect that E-Niang had been bullied by the Queen Mother for many years, but she left a life-saving charm for herself!"

Little boy: "Life-saving charm?"

Hong Zhou thought about it for a while, then changed his tune with a smile: "No, it's the Queen Mother's reminder!"

Little boy: "What?"

Putting the letter in his sleeve, Hong Zhou quickly walked towards the door.

"My lord, my lord, wait for the servants." The little boy didn't even have time to pack up the parcels on the ground, and shouted while chasing, "Where are you in a hurry?"

Hong Zhou's eyes were cold: "The Hall of Mental Cultivation!"

In the study of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, there is a "Chunhui Picture" on the desk.

Mother hands line, wandering clothing.

This picture was presented by Qian Zhengyuan, the servant of the Ministry of Rites. His mother was a widow for 40 years, and she supported her parents-in-law until she was old. She raised the two Qian Zhengyuan brothers as adults. Today, on the 80th birthday of Mrs. Qian, Qian Zhengyuan presented this painting and asked Hongli to inscribe her mother.

"Whoever says that an inch of grass has a heart will be rewarded with three Chunhui." Hongli said slowly, he is a filial son himself, and he will not refuse another filial son's request for filial piety. Yu said: "I'm here with the prince."

Hong Zhou walked in quickly and saluted, "My brother, I respectfully invite the emperor to be safe."

Hongli took a pen and dipped in ink, and wrote the word "Qing" on the "Chunhui Map".

"Why didn't you speak for a long time?" He said without raising his head, "I have so many things to do, I don't have time to play dumb with you."

Only then did Hong Zhou speak, but his voice was extremely depressed, like a volcano that had been sleeping for many years and suddenly woke up: "Your Majesty, when my younger brother was packing up the relics of Concubine Yu, I accidentally found a letter."

Hongli wrote another "Fen" character: "What letter?"

Hong Zhou: "A handwritten letter left by Mrs. Wen Shu before she died."

The tip of the pen paused, and Hongli looked up at him: "My wet nurse?"

Hiroshi: "Yes."

Hongli put down his pen: "Bring it up."

Li Yu stepped forward to receive the letter and presented it to Hongli. Hongli was about to open it when Hongzhou suddenly said, "Your Majesty!"

Hongli looked at Hongrui.

Rather than asking, it is more provocative, Hong Zhou said: "If you open this letter, it will affect the mother-son relationship between you and the Queen Mother. Would you still read it?"

Hongli didn't know why he would say such a thing, but he felt that the question was absurd in his heart.

"Mother's kindness is like a sea, and it is difficult to repay for life. There is nothing in the world that will affect the relationship between me and the Queen Mother." He said, and unfolded the letter in his hand.

The line that comes into view is:

"The fourth elder brother's mother is the Qian family in Jiaxing, and the Niu Hulu family killed the mother and took the child. I hope elder brother is careful!"
