Concubine Xin doesn't know what's wrong with her, she has been upset recently, subconsciously she has become more and more dissatisfied with Wei Ning'er, and the things she discussed with Concubine Shu have not made any progress, so she has already put Wei Ning'er in front of her. Her advice disappeared, and she even vented her resentment and dissatisfaction on the servants. 【|】

When she arrived at Zuixin Garden, Concubine Xin realized that she was late. The empress was leading everyone in the harem to congratulate the emperor who was already smiling from ear to ear. drive to.

Concubine Xin immediately retreated to the side, and greeted the Empress Dowager together with everyone.

"May the Empress Dowager be blessed and safe!"

"Emperor Niang." The emperor walked forward with a smile on his face.

"Show the Ai family little elder brother!" The queen mother couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Brother Sixteen is lucky at first glance. Look at how good this child is, and he was carved out of the same mold as Concubine Ling!" The queen approached the queen mother and said with a smile.

"Yes! It's like the emperor, Ai Jia likes it!" The queen mother smiled from ear to ear.

Seeing that the empress wanted to take this opportunity to please the emperor and the empress dowager, the concubines did not step forward to disturb them, they were chatting with each other, but they still watched the emperor and the three carefully, lest they missed something.

Concubine Xin gave Concubine Shu winks several times.

Concubine Shu pretended not to notice, until she found no one noticed, she nodded impatiently and took a chance to quietly leave the hall.

Concubine Xin looked everyone around for a while, made sure no one noticed, and then went out!

"Your Majesty." Seeing Concubine Shu waiting for her, Concubine Xin immediately went up to meet her.

"Sister, even though we are not very popular in the palace, we still need to avoid suspicion. Otherwise, if something happens in the future, how can we get out?" Concubine Shu looked at Concubine Xin with a hint of blame in her words.

"My lady, I feel that the time is coming. If I don't seize the opportunity right now, I'm afraid I won't have such a good time in the future." Concubine Xin said a little anxiously.

"Not right." Concubine Shu shook her head and said, "The Chinese New Year will be one month away. If something important happens at this time, it is a big taboo. The emperor and the empress dowager must investigate thoroughly. We have to wait until everyone is unprepared. , in order to ensure everything is safe, do you understand? I don’t want to risk your and my life because of this, I want to make sure I get out.”

Concubine Xin was silent when she heard the words, and nodded after a while: "Concubine understands, please don't worry, concubine, concubine will not act rashly." Now that things are up to now, Concubine Xin is in a hurry, but it is useless, she cannot give up to get her child back. own.That way, her child will only be more pitiful, but this matter is like a mountain pressing on her, making her breathless.

The birth of the sixteenth elder brother brought more joy and laughter to the Zuixinyuan. The emperor and the queen mother came here every day to see Wei Ning'er and the child.Yongxuan and the others also love and love their newborn younger brother, and they often follow behind the wet nurse to see Elder Sixteen.

There are several children under Cheng Huan's knees, and the happiest one is Wei Ning'er, but it's almost the end of the new year and she is still in confinement, so she can't go back to the Forbidden City with everyone, so she took the children to stay in the Old Summer Palace.It wasn't until the day before New Year's Eve, when she was confinement, that the emperor came to the Yuanmingyuan to take her and the child back to the palace.

At the family dinner on New Year's Eve, Wei Ning'er and the sixteenth elder brother who had just reached the full moon became the focus of everyone, and the royal relatives and relatives all came forward to congratulate.After going back and forth, Wei Ning'er became a little tired, and it wasn't until Ruoyan came over that a knowing smile appeared on her face.

"Er Niang." Yong Xuan looked at Ruoyan and said with a smile, "My son hasn't seen Er Niang for a long time."

Yongxuan's identity is a child of Fucha's family. In his heart, Fu Heng and Ruoyan are his uncles and aunts, so he loves her just like his Ama and Erniang. The identity of "Fukang'an" has lived a lifetime.

"Yongxuan has grown up a lot, and I will go back to Fucha's house to have a look in the next year." Ruoyan said this thoughtfully, she glanced at Wei Ning'er, and said with a smile: "If the empress can come, she will be a concubine and a rich man." The greatest honor of a scout.”

"I will go." Wei Ning'er knew that Ruoyan said this because she had something important to tell her, and she wanted to avoid everyone, so she couldn't help but feel a little dignified.

As soon as the first month passed, the weather gradually warmed up, and the elder brothers were also very busy, running around the upper study room and the Jianting Pavilion all day long, and the elders had to enter the court.It was not easy for Yongxuan and the younger ones, and they would cry out every day when they went back home.

"Emiang, today Yongzheng has not come to the study room, and heard the little eunuch come to report to the Taifu, Yongzheng is ill." Yongxuan looked at Wei Ning'er and said.

"The weather changes quickly in early spring, you and Yong Xing should be extra careful, don't be too tired, don't be aggressive, you are still children, understand?" Wei Ning'er looked at him, worried.Wei Ning'er didn't want them to bear too much, they must be children after all, so hard work, she felt very distressed!

"Emiang, don't worry, my son and elder brother have a sense of propriety. Yong Xing wanted to show off in front of Huang Ama. When he learned that Huang Ama was going to Jianting, he braved the heavy rain to practice riding and archery. Hypocrisy! He deserves his illness." Xun seemed to look down on Yong Xing very much, and said with some disdain.

"If I hadn't stopped you, you would have gone too!"

"If I hadn't stopped you, you would have gone too!" Yong Xuan looked at Yong Xing and smiled.

"I'm not the same as him. Huang Ama likes me. You don't have to go to Huang Ama to show it on purpose. Huang Ama still likes me, not as annoying as Yong Xing." Yong Xing said a little unnaturally, then laughed again Said: "Fortunately, brother, you stopped me, otherwise I would have been in the rain for nothing."

"The emperor hasn't gone yet?" Wei Ning'er asked with a smile.

"That's right, how could Huang Ama come in such a heavy rain!" Yong Xing laughed.

"Emiang, don't listen to him, he is so disappointed that Huang Ama hasn't arrived." Yong Xuan teased.

"Brother, don't talk nonsense." Yong Xun felt a little embarrassed, and wanted to cover Yong Xun's mouth with a loud cry.The two brothers got into a fight and ran out.

Wei Ning'er looked at the suddenly empty room with a helpless smile on her face. The children have grown up, and they are indeed different from before.

Elder Brother Twelve's illness is not simple. By mid-February, he still hasn't recovered, and it's getting worse.This made the queen anxious. Whether in the palace or among the people, countless people lost their lives due to illness. Her fifth princess and thirteenth elder brother died of illness. I can't go down.

"You trash, why is Yongxi's illness not improving at all, if there is no improvement, I will definitely not let you go." The queen roared as she looked at all the imperial physicians.

"Your Majesty, calm down, the slaves will definitely do their best." Li Taiyi said with cold sweat all over his face.

"Get out, get out of here." The queen was exhausted.

"Yes!" Everyone retreated as if they had been pardoned.

"Empress, Elder Brother Twelve will definitely get better." Mu Yun felt extremely uncomfortable seeing the Queen sitting on the bedside and holding Elder Brother Twelve's hand and weeping silently.

"Mu Yun, you know medicine. You said Elder Brother Twelve has been sick for half a month and hasn't improved. Why? I don't believe those imperial doctors. They just play tricks on me!" The queen looked at Mu. Yun's eyes were full of anxiety and heartache.

"Your Majesty, according to my maidservant, Twelve Elder Brothers just feel cold occasionally, why it hasn't healed for a long time, and my maidservant can't say well." Mu Yun didn't know why, so naturally he didn't dare to talk about it.

"Tell me, is someone jealous of Ben Gong and Elder Brother Twelve and cursing him?" The Queen heard with a solemn expression.

"Your Majesty!" Mu Yun was stunned, and then his face turned pale: "My Lady, this is a big taboo in the palace, does anyone dare to do this? What's more, the curse is also false and real, making people look at it in a fog."

"It's better to believe it than to believe it. If someone really cursed Yongzheng, wouldn't it be my life? I know that there are many sluts in this palace, and I wish I could kill my mother and son. Poor Yongzheng." You are still young, so I don’t know how much these things will happen in the future.” The more the queen said, the more restless she felt, and she felt a little restless. This palace is as deep as the sea, and there are dangers everywhere. There are no bones left to be eaten.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something serious has happened." At this moment, Hai Sheng rushed in with a face full of horror, knelt down on the ground suddenly, kowtowed and said in a trembling voice.

"What's going on?" The queen was startled and asked immediately.

"Look, ma'am." Haisheng presented the wooden box in his hand with trembling hands.

Mu Yun took it and presented it in front of the queen, and slowly opened it. When she saw the contents of the box clearly, she slipped her hand in fright, and the box fell to the ground.

"Young lady, don't look!" Mu Yun knelt on the ground and went to pick up the box.

But the queen pushed her away, picked up the little man who had fallen to pieces with trembling hands, looked at the needles inserted into the little man's body and the birth date engraved on the wooden box, her eyes suddenly became red.

"Where did you find it?" After a long time, the queen asked, suppressing the grief and indignation in her heart.

"My lady, I found it in an abandoned palace in Lenggong, a young eunuch." Haisheng said with cold sweat all over his face.

"Go and interrogate the little eunuch for me." The queen said this and looked at Mu Yun beside her: "Put this thing away, and take it and me to the Palace of Compassion. I'm going to greet the empress dowager." .”

"Yes!" Mu Yun put the box away with trembling hands, and followed the queen to the Compassion Palace.

At this time, the queen was calmer than ever. In her opinion, the reason why Elder Brother Twelve had been ill for a long time was because of this thing. As long as she found out who was behind the scenes, Elder Twelve would definitely recover.

In the harem, curses were already taboo. After seeing the wooden box, the queen mother became furious and ordered Ma Renyi to investigate, but the queen felt that it was not enough. Thinking of Yongzheng who was still lying on the bed, the queen mother knelt on the ground and asked The queen mother kowtowed, "Emperor Niang, please issue an order that the concubines will search the palace."

"Search the palace?" The queen mother heard a trace of hesitation on her face.

"Empress Dowager, something has happened!" Ma Renyi, who was ordered to investigate, went back and forth, holding a wooden box that was exactly the same as Mu Yun's, and tremblingly said: "Empress, I found this in the Imperial Garden."
