Chapter 13 Chapter 13 Wen Shan didn't take Niu Hulu
's provocation seriously at all... Wen Shan didn't take Niu Hulu's provocation seriously at all. She wanted to applaud and send Kangxi off to her palace. Niu Hulu found several opportunities to mock Wen Shan in person, but found that the other party ignored her and continued to raise children and stroll in the garden leisurely, which made her heart ache.
Later, everyone in the harem gradually understood Xuan Fei's pulse. As long as her children were not involved, Xuan Fei would still be the Xuan Fei who was peaceful and easy to talk to.
So Niu Hulu, who had found trouble several times, also stopped. Of course, there was another important reason that Kangxi was not a fool. Once or twice, he indulged Niu Hulu's coquettishness. After many times, Kangxi didn't like this kind of harem competition for favor. After ignoring Niu Hulu a few times, he naturally became honest.
Yinsi also deeply reflected on himself. It turned out that this was the real wisdom of his mother, and she could respond to changes with constancy.
And Wen Shan was really just grateful to Niu Hulu. Whoever wanted to serve the leader could take it.
Repaying evil with kindness, Niu Hulu is really a good person.
Thinking of this, Kangxi asked Liang Jiugong in his spare time how Niu Hulu and Concubine Xuan got into trouble. Niu Hulu was a little spoiled, but Concubine Xuan just liked to deal with food on weekdays. When did these two people have a grudge?
Liang Jiugong hesitated to speak, that is, Kangxi was busy with state affairs all day and didn't take these things in the harem to heart. Everyone in the harem didn't know that Empress Niu Hulu and Concubine Xuan had only one thing in disagreement, that is, because Concubine Xuan, the fourth prince, sued Empress Niu Hulu.
"I don't know, maybe Empress Niu Hulu was in a bad mood after being released from house arrest a few days ago." Liang Jiugong didn't know it directly, so he poured tea for Kangxi and stepped aside.
When Kangxi mentioned this, he remembered it, it was still because of Yinzhen.
Kangxi drank a sip of tea and thought that Concubine Xuan really loved the child. He had been to Xianfu Palace more often recently and saw that she was really good to Yinsi, not much different from his biological mother. Yinzhen's temper was much gentler when he was raised by her, but now that he has returned to Chengqian Palace, he seems to have returned to his previous stubborn and stubborn temper.
Concubine Xuan was sensible and gentle, and she had made great contributions to raising the prince, but she didn't bother with Niu Hulu. Kangxi thought about it and waved his hand to let Liang Jiugong send a lot of things to Xianfu Palace.
Wen Shan, who got a lot of jewelry and antiques inexplicably, was also a little confused. Yinsi blinked his eyes and confirmed his thoughts again. His mother won a lot of money. It is true that it is better to be still than to move.
Wen Shan was not very interested in antiques, but she loved those jewelry. They were indeed exquisite and gorgeous made by top craftsmen. Wen Shan was comparing a hairpin and turned her head to see Yinsi blinking at her. She immediately smiled and said, "When our little eight grows up and gets married, mother will leave all these to you."
Yinsi thought to himself, how could he want mother's things? He also secretly noted that mother liked jewelry and would definitely get some more beautiful and luxurious ones for her in the future.
When the weather got warmer, Wen Shan would occasionally hold Yinsi to take a few laps in the Imperial Garden and then go to the Yanxi Palace to see Wei Ying.
Wei promised to gradually understand that Concubine Xuan really didn't mind her and Yinsi's relationship, but she herself kept the etiquette and didn't often take the initiative to visit Yinsi. She was satisfied when Wenshan came to her place with Yinsi from time to time, and the relationship between the two became closer and closer. Usually Wenshan brought a bunch of food, and Wei promised to do some needlework while Wenshan chatted with her and teased Yinsi.
Yinsi lay on the small bed and felt very warm in his heart. He didn't expect that he would have two mothers who loved him so much in this life. Wei was his biological mother and Wenshan Yinsi had long recognized in his heart that she was also his mother. The two mothers were close, and he now felt that he was simply the happiest child in the world!
I just don't know how the fourth brother is doing now. Yinsi smacked his lips and thought about it but couldn't come up with any good ideas. Forget it, he is just a baby now and can't do anything. The fourth brother should just wish for himself.
On this day, Wenshan took Yinsi out for a walk again. Just after turning the corner, a half-grown black puppy ran out from the flowers. Wenshan thought it was a blessing raised by Yinzhen for a moment, but when she looked closely, she found that it was the puppy raised by the fifth prince Yinqi.
Yinqi and several young eunuchs quickly chased after him. Yinqi's face turned red when he ran, but he stopped and greeted Wenshan obediently.
"Yinqi, run slower." Wenshan leaned over to wipe his sweat. Baoquan had already caught the puppy quickly and handed it to the young eunuch of the fifth prince.
"Where did it come from? Why are you so anxious?"
Wenshan often went to the Cining Palace, and the fifth prince was also familiar with her. He took the struggling puppy and said in a baby voice: "Empress Xuan, Yinqi just got out of school from the Shangshufang."
Shangshufang?
Wenshan was a little dazed. It had been a while since she went to the Shangshufang to pick up Yinzhen from school. She almost forgot that this was the time for these newly enlightened princes to get out of school.
"Yinqi, how is your fourth brother doing recently?" Wen Shan squatted down and asked with a smile, "Is he listening to his master in the study?"
Yinsi, who was held by Zhenzhu, couldn't help but prick up his little ears.
Yinqi thought for a while and then shook his head: "Fourth brother is even less talkative than before. As soon as he learns from the Royal Concubine, the people in the palace are waiting for him at the door, and they don’t let fourth brother and I play."
"Then... is fourth brother unhappy recently?"
Yinqi said firmly: "Not happy."
"Fourth brother also always asks me how Empress Xuan is doing recently." Yinqi blinked, "I asked him why he didn't go to pay his respects to Empress Xuan. Fourth brother said that the Royal Concubine wouldn't let him go out, and even his good fortune was kept outside and not allowed to play." "
By the way, fourth brother asked me a few days ago to tell Empress Xuan that the Royal Concubine will allow him to go out to enjoy the moon on the fifteenth of this month. Fourth brother wants to meet Empress Xuan in the small pavilion in the Imperial Garden." Yinqi scratched his head guiltily: "Fourth brother told me a few days ago, but I forgot. I'm sorry, Empress Xuan."
Yinqi is young and doesn't like to study. The empress dowager loves this little grandson and allows him to fish for three days and rest for two days. He only goes to the Shangshufang for two days out of ten. It is normal to forget to play.
"It's only the thirteenth day today, Yinqi notified him just in time." Wenshan motioned to Zhenzhu to take a plate of snacks from the food box she brought with her to Yinqi.
Yinqi liked Wenshan's cooking and ate a lot of snacks in the Cining Palace. Seeing this, he patted his chest with sparkling eyes and promised Wenshan: "Don't worry, Empress Xuan, Yinqi will tell you immediately if there is anything about Fourth Brother in the future." Wenshan
watched this little spy run away with a smile.
On the fifteenth day, Yinsi also made a fuss about going out with Wenshan. He struggled hard in the arms of the wet nurse and almost fell. Wenshan had no choice but to take him and tap his little nose: "Yinsi, be good, it's cold outside and you can't go."
And if Yinsi started crying and someone saw it, it would be bad.
Yinsi grabbed Wenshan's hair and refused to let go.
Anyway, he is a baby now, and this kind of childish behavior is normal.
"...You ignored him when your brother was here before, and now you miss your brother?" Wenshan had no choice but to take him out with her and teased him on the way.
When it comes to being arrogant, Yinsi is even more powerful than Yinzhen.
Yinsi turned his head away and thought that he was not thinking about his fourth brother, but was afraid that the fourth brother would make some excessive demands. What if his mother was soft-hearted and fell for it?
He went there to protect his mother!
There were a few small lights hanging in the pavilion of the Imperial Garden. Wenshan saw Yinzhen's small figure standing there from a distance. Wenshan hurried over. When Yinzhen saw her and Yinsi, his eyes turned red. He was about to salute Wenshan when he was helped up by Wenshan.
"Why are you thinner?" Wenshan looked at Yinzhen carefully. He had lost a lot of weight and there were some dark circles under his eyes.
"How can the cooking skills of a chef compare to Xuan'e Niang? If you can't eat Xuan'e Niang's cooking, you will lose weight naturally." Yinzhen didn't want to make Wenshan worry, so he was just joking with her.
Wenshan's face was solemn, thinking about the strict discipline of the imperial concubine to Yinzhen that she had heard about these days, and looking at Yinzhen who was obviously exhausted, she felt very distressed.
"Yinzhen, tell Xuan'e Niang the truth, did the imperial concubine treat you badly?"
Yinzhen was startled, as if he remembered something that made him extremely sad, but it was difficult for him to tell Wenshan.
Yinsi's eyes rolled around as Wen Shan held him in her arms. It was obvious that his fourth brother had been wronged in Chengqian Palace. He began to recall that in his previous life, the relationship between his fourth brother and Concubine Tong Jia was not very harmonious. Concubine Tong Jia was strict and her relationship with his fourth brother was not very close. After Concubine Tong Jia passed away, his fourth brother returned to Concubine De, but Concubine De already had the fourteenth brother and had experienced the death of the sixth brother, so she was even more partial to her youngest son. His fourth brother was not popular anywhere and his temper became more and more cold and hard.
"If you don't want to talk, then Mother Xuan won't ask." Wen Shan handed Yinsi to Zhenzhu, squatted down and looked at Yinzhen and said: "Mother Xuan will ask you one question, do you want to go back to Xianfu Palace? As long as you want, Mother Xuan will find a way to bring you back."
Yinzhen's eyes suddenly showed a little tears, and for the first time he lost his composure and threw himself into Wen Shan's arms and said with a crying voice: "Mother Xuan, I want to go back."
"I miss you and my brother."
Wen Shan patted his back and coaxed him: "Okay, Yinzhen, be good, Mother Xuan will find a way, you just wait for Mother Xuan."
Yinzhen calmed down a little and his face began to blush. He felt a little embarrassed about his actions just now, and he took back his hand and looked at Yinsi next to him.
"My brother is here too?"
Yinsi laughed in his heart, but it was too late to change the subject at this time. He had already remembered that his fourth brother hugged his mother and cried, and he would definitely use this to laugh at him in the future!
Wen Shan brought Yin Si over: "Yes, my brother misses you so much. He puts the puppy you gave him next to his pillow every day and cries when it's gone."
Yin Si: "..."
Ah, mother, why did you tell him this!
Now he has a handle in his fourth brother's hand!
Yin Zhen looked at Yin Si and laughed: "Then I will make more toys for my brother and play with him every day."
...
"Wen Shan, what are you thinking about? It's your turn to draw cards." The Queen Mother patted the Grand Empress Dowager and raised her chin in the direction of Wen Shan.
After playing cards with them for a while, she was in a daze two or three times.
Su Malagu, who was playing cards with the three masters, also smiled and said: "If Concubine Xuan loses this time, you have to make some fresh food for us."
Wen Shan came to her senses and quickly drew a card. It was Zhang Yaoji, and she played it casually.
"Oh, I won." The Grand Empress Dowager's eyes lit up and stretched out her hand to ask Wen Shan for money.
Wen Shan sighed, and forgot about the Grand Empress Dowager Hu Yaoji while counting the cards.
She honestly grabbed two golden beans on the table and handed them over. The Grand Empress Dowager put them aside and glanced at Wen Shan. She shuffled the cards slowly: "I think some people's minds are not here, and they have drifted to Chengqian Palace."
"Grandfather..."
The Grand Empress Dowager stopped her: "I tried my best to persuade you to take this opportunity to keep Yinzhen, but you didn't listen. Now I won't help you."
"Now, think of a way yourself."
Wen Shan sorted out the cards: "Grandfather, don't lie to me. The last time in Cining Palace, it was the emperor who didn't allow it. What can I do?"
The Grand Empress Dowager wanted to use this as an excuse to keep Yinzhen with her when Chengqian Palace was not strict, but Kangxi didn't agree, so the Grand Empress Dowager took a step back and held Yinsi with her.
"Anyway, you have to figure it out yourself this time." The Empress Dowager said with a smile.
Wen Shan lost miserably in this card game. After losing all her gold beans, she quickly ran away. The Empress Dowager said with a smile: "Madam, are you really not going to help Wen Shan? I think she really loves Yinzhen."
"How long can my old bones help her?" The Empress Dowager sat cross-legged on the couch, "She has to learn how to gain a foothold in this palace by herself. I think this is a good opportunity."
