The days were quiet for a few days. On this day, the autumn breeze was blowing, and the chill was like a layer of cold feathered clothes covering her body. However, the sunlight outside was as bright as gold, which was a great autumn afternoon. Ruyi was resting on the bed on the window and resting on her clothes. Listening to the wet nurse outside the window coaxing Yongyu to play, the child's crisp laughter always makes people feel relaxed and a little lazy.

These days the emperor was busy with the affairs of the Junggar in the previous dynasty. Hearing the emperor's orders to return to the east to move to Ulyasutai. This incident aroused the dissatisfaction of the newly-elected Prince of Junggar and Princess Duanshu's eldest son-in-law Dawachi. In anger, he refused to send envoys to Beijing to visit, threatening that the car would need to be moved out of Ulyasutai before he would give up.

The dispute between the Junggar tribe and the Dulbert tribe has been around for a long time. Especially in the 18th year of Qianlong, Dawazi raised troops to fight in order to seize the power of Dorzha, looted the Dulbert tribe, seized a large number of livestock, food, property, and plundered children and women, making the Dulbert tribe unprecedented. As the head of the tribe, Che Ling could not bear it anymore and had to lead more than 10,000 tribes to leave the Ertis River Muwu, where he lived for the lifetime, and moved to the Qing Dynasty to Ulyasutai. The emperor was extremely satisfied with Che Ling's behavior of leading more than 10,000 people to come back to the heart. Not only did he meet Che Ling personally, but he also specially appointed him as a prince to commend him. In order to show his solemnity, the emperor specially ordered the fourth prince Yongshou and the fifth prince Yongqi to prepare for the etiquette of greeting to express his joy for Che Ling's return.

In this way, Yong-chan naturally attracted much attention in the previous dynasty, and even Jin Yu-yan was very handsome in the harem. Although the concubines did not dare to openly seek Feng Yu-yan in front of Ruyi, they came to see him privately, and the threshold of Qixiang Palace was almost broken. Even Hai Lan, who had not served in bed for many years, often had a low-key concubine to accompany him to flatter him because of Yong-qi's face.

Ruyi only did not know, and did not need gossip among the palace people in Yikun Palace, and only took the purity of life.

The sun is warm, and even the idle cranes on the Fangzhu in the Imperial Garden sleep in pairs with the warm sand. The flower-picking bead curtain tent in front of the bedroom is quietly hanging down, emitting a light white soft light. It sways and then makes people want to fall asleep. While sleeping, Sanbao came in and stood quietly beside him. Ruyi was so lazy that she opened her eyes and said lazily: "What's the matter?"

The figure of the Three Treasures was reflected on the Tangchun Sleeping Gold Stopping Tent, swaying faintly with the wind, as if in his tone, there was a hint of unconcealed anxiety: "The little master Yu was anxious to ask for the Empress. I heard that the fifth prince was scolded by the emperor, which was not very good."

Ruyi suddenly opened her eyes, her sleepiness disappeared, but she instinctively disbelief: "Yongqi has always been doing her job properly, how could she be suddenly scolded by the emperor?"

Sanbao said nodded, "I don't know this slave."

Ruyi immediately sat up and called out in a deep voice: "Rong Pei, wait for the palace to wash and change clothes. Three treasures, please come in and wait for the warm pavilion."

Ruyi was shocked when she saw Hailan. Hailan had always been a quiet woman like iris, as quiet as the blue of the deep sea. Flowers bloomed from fragrance and were not sad. Ruyi had known her for many years, but she had never seen her panic like this. The surging tears washed away the traces of the powder and showed a more sad look. Her simple outfit made her look more like a helpless mother, rather than a decent woman who had lived in the deep palace for a long time. Hailan knelt down with her knees and said sadly, "Empress, please save Yongqi!"

Seeing her like this, Ruyi couldn't help feeling a little uneasy. She hurriedly took Hailan's hand and asked, "What happened?"

If she didn't ask, Hailan's tears rolled like a roar of autumn: "Empress, Yongqi was scolded by the emperor..." Before she finished her sentence, she cried even harder.

Ruyi couldn't stand her crying like this, frowned and said, "How could a son not be scolded by his father? Is it a spoiled child at that time?" She took off the water-colored silk from the button and wiped her tears, "Just say it well."

Hailan tried his best to hold back her tears and said, "The emperor ordered Yongshu and Yongqi to treat Aunt Dunshu solemnly with Che Ling, the prince of Dulbert. Although the two children were very polite and refused to slack off, Yongqi's child was young and did not know the importance of his words. It would be fine if he didn't study hard with Yongshu. He actually said privately, 'Where did the Emperor treat Che Ling so well? Davaqi was not a pity, but he also had to take into account the face of Aunt Dunshu!"

Ruyi's heart sank and took a breath: "Yongqi's talker is unintentional, but he was actually told by someone with a heart. Did he tell the emperor? And this person with a heart is his good brother Yongqian, right?"

Hailan cried sobly, and just nodded for a while before saying, "Yong Yan also said as a joke to the emperor. What can children understand? But the emperor..." She couldn't help crying again, but when she saw Ruyi staring at her, she had to hold the silk to wipe away the tears. "The emperor was very angry when he heard that Yongqi had only family affairs, but no state affairs; only relatives, no monarch and ministers! Yongqi had never heard of such a heavy reprimand, so she apologized to the emperor. The emperor punished him to kneel in the imperial study for an hour before he could drive him out, and he would not be allowed to deal with the matter of the Prince of Dulbert!" Training for a while and teaching him how to manage his tongue,

Ruyi's face became more and more gloomy, which was not consistent with her gentle voice: "If you don't allow it, don't allow it. Bring Yongqi back, train him for a while, teach him how to manage his tongue and not put a handle in front of others. Otherwise, he will be scolded this time, and he will not know what it is next time."

Hailan was sobbing like flowers beaten by the rain, lowering its weak stems and leaves: "The Queen and I have been carefully trained for so many years, which made Yongqi fall into a state of being refusal to be punished and being scolded. I am so sad to think about it. Which prince who has been scolded by the emperor over the years has a good end? The eldest prince died with regret, and the third prince was depressed. Now it is my turn to Yongqi."

The autumn wind under the eaves swirled against the ground and brushed the corner of her skirt coldly. Ruyi stared at Hailan and comforted her panicked expression with a quiet look. Her voice was not high, but it had the power to calm people, saying, "Hailan, do you think the children we have taught carefully will say such stupid and rebellious words?"

Hailan was stunned for a moment, shook her head with tears in her eyes: "No. Yongqi is a good child. I don't believe that he will disobey his king and father. He is just unintentional."

"Yes, courage is a good child we have taught through hard work. But..." Ruyi's eyes gradually cooled down, and she lost her original gentle and loving warmth. "If he did say such words, we would have no way."

Ruyi glanced at Hailan, who was kneeling on the ground and crying with messy makeup, turned around, her tone was as indifferent as frost and snow: "Rong Pei, help Concubine Yu back to the palace. Her son lost his composure, so she should not let the emperor be disgusted with it."

Hailan looked at Ruyi's back and was flooded by a bead curtain that was lifted up and lowered, opened her mouth silently, and fell to the ground sadly.

After that, Yongqi fell silent, and no one stepped into the Yanxi Palace with Hailan. In anyone's eyes, Yongqi, who lost the emperor's favor, was like an abandoned son and no one cared about it. Even if the palace people secretly talked about it, they felt that Yongqi's future would not be better than Su Lujun's depressed third prince Yongzhang. What's more, Hailan's identity is far less noble than Lujun, who is a concubine, and even less than her many children. Therefore, Yongqi's best way out is just like the eldest prince Yonghuang who died early.

Human feelings were like the gradually cold weather, forcing Hailan and his son. Yongqi was unwilling to see others, so Hailan closed the palace gate tightly. He became increasingly reluctant to say anything in front of the people, and the two of them just closed the door and lived quietly.

Occasionally the emperor asked: "Queen, Yongqi is also a child in your name. Although I am angry, you don't plead for him?"

Ruyi quietly served the emperor wearing the robe he wore in court, and looked at him with a calm eyebrows and eyes: "The emperor scolded Yongqi, and there must be a reason to scold him. As my stepmother, I am already a traitor, and I am already traitorous. How dare I plead for him with a face to plead for him?"

The emperor nodded with satisfaction: "It's good that the queen can be so fair and impartial." He took Ruyi's hand and said, "It's still early to go to court, I really want to see Yongqi again. Ruyi, you go with me."

The two of them laughed and said nothing about Yongqi again. Compared with Yongqi's loneliness, Yongqi seemed to be unique and occupied the glory.

Because Prince Dawazi of Junggar did not send an envoy to Beijing, the emperor did not take into account the face of his brother-in-law, but instead waited for Che Ling to become more and more solemn. Yongshu even made suggestions that he did not have to pretend to Dawazi. Therefore, in November, the emperor issued an order to suspend trade with Junggar.

What made Yongchun prosper and the emperor's support was the sensational case of Liu Zhenyu, a student in Jiangxi. At that time, Liu Zhenyu, a student in Jiangxi, was reported to others for the words "Easier Clothing System" in his book "The New Policy on the Governance of Peace", which caused the emperor to be furious.

That day, Ruyi was holding Jing Yi and accompanying the emperor. When she saw the emperor furious, she threw "The New Strategy of the Practice" on the ground and said, "Why should the emperor be so angry? Just leave it to the children for a small matter. Being angry will only hurt the dragon body."

The emperor stared and said, "You mean..."

Ruyi patted Jing Yi with a gentle and quiet smile: "Yongzhang and Yongshang have grown up, which is enough to share the worries of the emperor. At this time, aren't the two princes waiting outside the hall to pay tribute to the emperor? You can listen to what the two children have to say. Whether it matches the emperor's will, it's not too late to make a decision."

The emperor pondered for a moment and instructed Li Yu to call the two princes into the hall. Ruyi said, "Women are not allowed to interfere in politics." She carried Jing Yi and then turned into the inner hall.

The capital has entered a long autumn and winter season, and even the wind and sand are gradually getting stronger. The air is always immersed in the dry breath of wind and dust, losing its wet and tender temperature. Only large chrysanthemums hug on the fragrant branches, blooming in full bloom, and blooming to the point of dying.

Ruyi was idle and hugged Jing Yi and hummed softly.

It was a double tune by Zhang Yanghao, "Qingdongyuan", which sang the singers from the Nanfu Opera Troupe, which suited her wishes. The lyrics and music were clearly remembered.

"People envy Qilin paintings and know who is who he is? I think this reputation is useless. I have used infinite strength, used infinite insights, and tried my best to make them. I have tried my best to be drunk and still drunk."

Ruyi hummed softly, which made Jing Yi giggle. The wind outside rustled, causing the words in the study to be clear and clear.

It was the third prince Yongzhang's submissive voice: "I don't know, but I am the emperor."

The emperor's voice was a little displeased: "I ask you, are you not even proposition?"

Ruyi thought about Yongzhang's cautious appearance and would have been forced to sweat. On the other side, Yongzhang said carefully: "My son thinks that Liu Zhenyu only has these disrespectful words in the whole article. Moreover, the poems and books of the literati of Jiangnan have been severely harsh since the Holy Ancestor Kangxi and Emperor Shizong Yongzheng. If Emperor Ama can be defeated, the scholars of Jiangnan must be grateful to Emperor Ama for their kindness."

After a long period of silence, the voice of the fourth prince Yongshang broke the slightly strange quiet. His voice was loud, and compared to Yongzhang, he was quite energetic: "Emperor Ahma, my sons thought that the third brother's idea was too lenient. Since the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, the scholars in Jiangnan have been the most untamed. They have repeatedly offended the power of heaven with poetry, books and words, and have not changed their teachings. From the Holy Ahma to the Emperor Shizong, they have severely punished this and will never be lenient. The Emperor Ahma and his son are both virtuous and filial descendants of the ancestors. They must follow the teachings of the ancestors and will never be forgiven!"

The emperor's voice could not hear any joy or anger, and he was still calm: "Then Yongsheng, what are your plans?"

Yongshu's answer was firm and without any gentleness: "Liu Zhenyu dared to say that the 'easy clothing system' is actually a rebellious statement. He could not apologize to the Qing Dynasty if he died."

Yongzhang seemed to have mercy and asked for it: "Emperor Ahma, this year, Ding Wenbin, a native of Shangyu, Zhejiang Province, exposed the rebellion of the Yansheng Gong Kong Zhaohuan, and the Ministry of Justice, has ordered the execution of the punishment and the car was broken, and it has been implicated. This has caused panic among the literati and uneasy all day long, and dared not write poetry and essays. For this incident, why did Emperor Ahma not be kind and powerful and forgive a little, so that the scholars and literati can be grateful for the kindness of Emperor Ahma."

Yongshu snorted and said, "The third brother is wrong. The more lenient they are, the more they are, the more they are, how can they be grateful for the great grace of the emperor? Instead, they become more unruly! Otherwise, how could such things be repeatedly banned? In the past, when the Qing Dynasty entered the pass, the first thing was to "lead your head without leaving your hair, keep your hair without leaving your hair." Even the Han ministers like Chen Mingxia, who were valued by Master Shunzhi, were hanged by Master Shunzhi because of a great rebellious rebellion saying, "If you want the world to be safe, you will relapse and keep your clothes and clothes." The emperor's wise wisdom will naturally not let go of those traitors who are ruthless!"

The emperor's silence only took a moment, and it changed into a cold word: "Liu Zhenyu has been blessed with the blessings of my Qing Dynasty for more than a hundred years since his grandfather, and he has received ethics. He is not an ignorant and foolish people. He dares to be so crazy and rebellious. He investigates Liu Zhenyu's arbitrarily discussing the customs of the country and is executed on the same day. He informs the prefectures and counties and the book version is destroyed. This matter will be left to you forever."

The emperor's words were not at all sympathetic, and Ruyi was quite shocked when she heard them. However, Yong's proud laughter was heard even more. "My son will definitely supervise them hard, please don't worry, Emperor Ahma."

The love song is melodious, and Ruyi knows that her voice is not as melodious and sweet as Yan Wan, and her voice is moving, but at this time, the golden waves are floating on the silver jar, and her green sleeves are holding the jade bell with her diligent support. She looks at a wisp of green willow smoke, and she lies on a begonia wind. She taps her fingers, and the melodious song overflows. She takes a deep breath of the clear air, and the faint fragrance of chrysanthemums dissipates, and her deep thoughts are curling.

"Chao Cuo is not guilty, and in Heyidong City, he loves the people like a person. Fu Nengyuan achieved some success in his moment, but he had already suffered a disaster."

Ruyi's thoughts moved slightly, and she held the child in her arms tightly.

It was late at night when he left, and only Li Yu and more than a dozen eunuchs were waiting outside. While Li Yu was holding the sedan chair, Ruyi whispered, "Thank you, you can have the eternal squad."

Li Yu smiled respectfully: "I just please my master. The fourth prince is favored by the emperor. I will naturally remind the fourth prince how to please the emperor. I just remind you. Whatever your tongue says depends on the fourth prince himself. Whether it is success or failure in the future, I will not do the slave's affairs."

Ruyi smiled and said, "Of course, his affairs are unrelated to us."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and they all understood each other. Ruyi raised her head and looked at the moon, and saw that the jade toad was clear and clear, and her heart was even more clear.

The four seasons of the capital are clearly divided, spring is warm, autumn is cool, summer is cold, summer is cold, winter is cold, just like the red-topped white in the Forbidden City, only the people in the city can know the cold and warmth. For more than half a year, Ruyi has been favored by the emperor because of her two children, and her status is as stable as before. Jin Yuyan has been flattered by the palace servants, only because the fourth prince Yongsheng has been valued by the emperor. However, the fifth prince Yongqi, who once had the emperor's eyes as the emperor, returned to silence as a flash in the pan.

By the time the summer of the 19th year of Qianlong came slowly, there was a saying that was that the fourth prince Yongsheng, the concubine of Jia Guilong, had the image of inheriting Zong Zhao and was about to ascend to the position of crown prince.

In this case, it will naturally not be groundless, and the emperor's various favoritisms for Yongshu are more like confirming this illusory rumor.

In April, the husband of the princess Hejing, the prince Sebutenbalezhuerteng came to the court. The emperor was very happy and ordered the Grand Secretary Fu Heng and Yonghou to greet him at Zhangjiakou and named the prince Beile.

In May, in the civil strife of Junggar, the emperor ordered two troops to advance to Yili, and asked the third prince Yongzhang and the fourth prince Yongzhang to practice military affairs in the Ministry of War. However, anyone with discerning eyes could see that the emperor only asked Yongzhang about military affairs and asked the Shangshufang master to teach military books, but Yongzhang was just right.

In August, the emperor stationed in Jilin and went to Wendeheng Mountain to pay homage to Changbai Mountain and Songhua River. He helped the floods in Qiqihar and read Huifa City. In addition to taking Ruyi and his legitimate son Yongqi, he accompanied Yongqi. In September, Yongqi followed the emperor to visit Yongling, Zhaoling and Fuling.

The honor and favor were so great that even the ministers in the court treated the young prince very much, and respected him everywhere, just like half a prince.

In the inner palace, although the emperor favored Ruyi, Yanwan, Yingpin, Xinpin and others, and his gratitude for the older Yuyan was becoming increasingly rare, he often sat there, ordered to accompany him to have meals, or gave him many rewards. Compared with Lu Yun's position and his gratitude was rare, Yuyan was also regarded as having a favor.

Although Lu Yun didn't say anything in front of Ruyi, she couldn't help but sit down and sighed: "I am still old this year. Sometimes I remember that I raised Yonghuang and had a mother and son, and my eyes always looked like he died young. Now I don't dare to ask for anything else, I just hope that Yongzhang can live a peaceful life. It's a blessing not to be like his elder brother."

Ruyi held a cup of Longjing from Jiangnan Xingong and savored it carefully. He couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this: "Although Yongzhang was scolded by the emperor, it was the year Empress Xiaoxian passed away. Why are you doing well now? You said such despairing words again?"

Lu Yun couldn't help but sigh, "I know I was old and weak. Since Yonghuang and Yongzhang were scolded and treated coldly by the emperor, I was charged with bad education and did not let the emperor be happy. I only hope that mother and son will live a safe life. But the Empress does not know that whenever Concubine Jia was sarcastic when she saw me, Yongzhang and Yongzhang were on duty together, and they also had to look at Yongzhang's face and be ridiculed by his words. Our mother and son were so pitiful. I also blamed me for being confused back then and wanted Yongzhang to compete for the position of crown prince, so that I ended up today." The more she said, she became more and more sad, and knelt down and cried, "I know that I was wrong. I just hope that I can live a more peaceful life from now on, and I also asked the Empress to protect it."

Lu Yun is in an awkward situation, and Ruyi doesn't know that the third prince Yongzhang has never been able to win the emperor's eyes, which leads to mediocrity. Although the fourth princess Jingyan, born to Lu Yun, is loved by the emperor, he is the daughter of a concubine. The sixth prince Yongyan is only eleven years old and has many young sons, so he doesn't care much about it. Although Lu Yun is not much older than Yu Yan, he is not good at maintaining, fighting against Yan, and knowing how to invite favors, so he naturally has a poor life.

Seeing Lu Yun like this, Ruyi thought of her affection in Qian’s residence, and the fact that Yonghuang and Yongzhang were involved in some of their own concerns was touched. She held her up and said, “This is a serious statement. The emperor is not a person who ignores his old love. You don’t know the character of Concubine Jia. Anyone who has a mother will have a son. There is also a moment of pride. Yongzhang is now the eldest son of the emperor, and he will be awarded the title of the mansion in the future. You will have your peace and glory.”

Lu Yun comforted him a little and wiped his tears, "I feel at ease with the Queen. It's time for me to cry, so why don't I cry? Isn't Concubine Yu and Yongqi even more pitiful?"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Li Yu coming in. When he saw Lu Yun, he gave a big gift and smiled: "It turns out that Concubine Chun is here, so it's easy to find a slave!"

Lu Yun was quite surprised and didn't know what happened, so she was a little panicked: "What's wrong? Is it wrong for Yongzhang? Is it because the emperor is scolded?"

Li Yu said happily: "Where is this? Congratulations to Concubine Chun, today the emperor has flipped your sign and will go to Zhongcui Palace to have dinner with you. You should prepare to serve you quickly."

Lu Jun was shocked, as if she couldn't believe it for a long time. Her smile froze on her face, she touched her clothes again, and she was so happy that she really didn't know what to do. Niannian said, "I haven't served in bed for many years, why did the emperor remember that I came to this palace today?"

Li Yu smiled and said, "The Imperial Concubine forgot, and then I will make you enter the residence in the past! The emperor is thinking about it."

Lu Yun's joy was extraordinary. She sat there and shed tears, muttering to herself: "Your Majesty, I have forgotten it myself, but the Your Majesty still remembers it!"

Ruyi smiled and pushed her, "This is a great joy. It can be seen that the emperor is thinking about your old love, why do you still cry?" She thought of something and suddenly remembered something, calling Rong Pei and said, "Go and bring the collar that Concubine Jia presented to me yesterday."

It was originally a very gorgeous red gold plate, five phoenixes, and the peony collar was bent with gold and turned into a phoenix with head held high. It was decorated with pearls and jade, with colorful patterns, and red jade, and red jade was scattered into peony branches, which shone crystal clear.

Ruyi personally handed the collar to Lu Yun and said with a heart-warming feeling: "This collar is dazzling enough, and the clothes and jewelry don't have to be too gorgeous anymore, so as not to lose your true beauty." She said, "I don't have such a good thing in the palace, and I am still filial to Concubine Jia. Well, I will give you a gift to the Buddha with flowers and add to your joy tonight."
