"Oh? Didn't you fall in love with this court lady?" Seeing that Fu Heng was so attentive, Xu Nian became interested and joked.

"No, no, maids of honor and guards must not be selfish. I will keep this in mind. Because she kicked Concubine Ning's snowball and saved Yugui's life, Concubine Ning has always made things difficult for her, and repeatedly tried to put her to death. My servant just sees her pitiful and wants to help her." Fu Heng said no, but his ears turned red quietly.

"You also know that it is a serious crime for court ladies and guards to have selfishness. The women in the harem belong to the emperor. You can look at them, but you are not allowed to contact them in private. Once someone catches you, even I can't help you. If you Sincerely please her, I will ask the emperor to give her to you as a concubine." Xu Nian knew that Fu Heng and Wei Yingluo had gotten involved without asking.

Wei Yingluo is a woman with sharp claws, she is not a kitten, she is a fierce tiger, a beast that can choose anyone to eat.

"Sister! Why have you become so snobbish? If I want to marry Wei Yingluo, I will definitely hire her as a regular wife." Fu Heng said angrily.

"Wei Yingluo is a court lady, so she was born in Baoyi. Your surname is Fucha. You belong to the Yellow Banner of the Manchu Dynasty, the upper three banners of the Eight Banners. Do you think Ama and Erniang will let you marry a woman who does not belong to the banner? Will she be a regular wife? Then how will she go out to socialize in the future? What will others think of our Fucha family?" Xu Nian sneered, and suddenly remembered what Fu Heng said righteously when he once warned her.

"You used to be able to persuade me swearingly: say that I am cowardly. Say that as long as I am a descendant of the Fucha family and the queen of the Qing Dynasty, I should not indulge in personal feelings and forget the responsibilities on my shoulders. Ask me, What is an empress supposed to do? What is an empress supposed to look like? I don't fight or snatch, I just want to live with Yonglian every day. You tell me that Gao Guifei is powerful in the palace, and Gao Bin is in the former court. Colluding with Ertai and forming a confrontation with Zhang Tingyu, the emperor needs me to take charge of the harem and disperse the power of Concubine Gao, so as to attack the E party and balance the two factions of E and Zhang."

"After Yong Lian suffered a serious illness, I really found that I was too naive before. Now, the naive one is you. Do you know what the future helm of the Fucha family should do? What is the future helm of the Fucha family? What should a person look like?"

"If I used to be cowardly, you are ignorant now!" Xu Nian's voice was cold, but every word he said pierced Fu Heng's heart.

"You asked me to take Wei Yingluo in, so you can understand her. She has a feud with Concubine Ning. Does it mean that every time she commits a crime, I, the Queen of the Palace, will be required to take care of her? If she makes a mistake, will she also Because of my position as the lord of the palace, I have never disciplined the palace people well? Fu Heng, you really are getting better and better!" Xu Nian covered Yong Cong with a thin quilt, and gently patted him, the little guy opened and closed his eyes Yes, it's really cute, Xu Nian's voice was gentle, "Go to sleep, Erniang is here."

"Sister, I didn't think about it that much, I just..." Fu Heng was speechless at Xu Nian's words, and he couldn't continue. He just didn't think about Xu Nian too much, and he only planned for Wei Yingluo. up.

"Fu Heng, you have also seen that Yong Cong is still young and cannot leave me all the time; Yong Lian lives in the West Sixth Office, and half of my heart was also drawn to the West Sixth Office by him; I have to come and ask about the general affairs of the palace. Take care, this year's palace expenses are very high, and I'm trying to figure out how to save money? The concubines come to pay their respects, and there are problems here and there; the Queen Mother can't be negligent; I can't refuse all the court ladies. "Which adult did the emperor reward in the previous court, I will call his family members into the palace to reward him; the emperor's place should not be ignored." Xu Nian thought to himself, and he was indeed busy with a lot of things every day .

"I have a bunch of maids and eunuchs serving in Changchun Palace, and I still feel powerless! You are going to give me a big trouble to come in now, do you really think that your sister is a fairy, who can turn clouds and rain and do whatever she wants?" Xu Nian said Squeezing between her brows, with a tired face, she couldn't bear to see Fu Heng's face turned pale by her, but she still couldn't help asking him the last question, "The girl you can fancy must be She has an outstanding appearance, and her temperament is different from others, you put her beside me, the emperor often comes to my Changchun Palace, are you not afraid that the emperor will fall in love with her? Or is it that she has fallen in love with the emperor?"

"Sister, I'm sorry, I was reckless!" Fu Heng stood up and knelt down. If such a thing really happened, how would her sister deal with herself in the palace?

Xu Nian stepped forward to help him up, "Okay, it's my sister's words that are serious, and she is a little unfounded. How about you go and investigate Wei Yingluo, if she really needs help, I beg the emperor to transfer her to the tea room in the Qing Palace As an errand, there are few people there, and the concubine dare not use her means there."

"Thank you sister!" Fu Heng came here in a hurry, but walked heavily when he left. He was really dazzled by the sudden liking, and after being scolded by Xu Nian, he became much clearer.

"Wait a minute, the emperor gave Changchun Palace a lot of things a while ago, among them is a Qingfeng sword, which is very suitable for you. I thought I would bring it to you when I delivered the medicinal materials to Er Niang in two days, since you came here today , just take it away yourself!" While Xu Nian was speaking, Ruyu had already brought up the sword case.

The three-foot green peak, the sound of the sharp blade coming out of the sheath is very clear, the scabbard is unpretentious, only engraved with the word Qingfeng in a free and easy style, the body of the sword is made of black iron, thin and sharp, revealing a faint cold light, like the sudden appearance of autumn frost.

"Good sword!" Fu Heng loved this sword very much. He casually held a sword flower in his hand, and his movements were chic and elegant. No wonder so many maids in the palace liked him. girlish heart.

Looking at the sapphire blue tassel hanging on the hilt of the sword, he smiled brightly, "This tassel was made by my sister, and I recognized it as my sister's handicraft at a glance."

"Okay, it's getting late, you can go back and enjoy it slowly, you have to go back to be on duty, let's go!" Xu Nian smiled at him, and told him a few words worriedly, "Be careful in the palace, don't worry about it." To be caught."

"Understood, sister!" Fu Heng left with brisk steps, raising his hand to touch the long sword from time to time, never leaving his eyes from the sword.

"Still young at heart." Xu Nian sighed as he watched his leaving back.

-

"Golden and jade offering 4 pieces and 2 boxes of jade wares, and 2 handles of Laishi Ruyi."

"A pair of emerald phoenix vases and a pair of crystal Pisces vases are presented by the ceramic workshop."

"The glass factory presents a box of ivory carved dressing boxes, and a mirror with an enamel handle."

"A pair of red sandalwood peacock plume palace fans, a red sandalwood carved throne, and a pair of cloisonné enamel crane wax stands are presented on the screen."

Outside the Changchun Palace, eunuchs and court ladies sent by various workshops to present gifts lined up in long lines.

On the day of Xu Nian's birthday, the Changchun Palace was decorated with lanterns and festoons, resplendent and resplendent. The nobles sat on top of the banquet, laughing and laughing, whispering to each other and praising the gifts presented by everyone, and exclaiming from time to time.

Hongli sat at the head, and placed Xu Nian's seat next to him, and the two of them kept their heads together from time to time, talking and laughing, not knowing what to say.

Before the banquet started, Concubine Ning started to drink one cup after another. She was two points drunk, but she was able to perform seven points. Gorgeous, even more luxurious and bright than the birthday star Xu Nian, with a coquettish voice, "I don't know what gift the emperor will give the empress today? It will also open the eyes of the concubines."

Hongli glanced at Gao Ningxin, and she smiled at him with hooked lips, three points of hook, three points of obsession, three points of anger, and one point of resentment, it was indeed very charming, even Xu Nian, a woman who saw it, thought she was a stunner , can not help but look twice.

Hongli squeezed Xu Nian's hand, his tone was full of dissatisfaction, "Queen, have you seen enough?"

Xu Nian smiled flatteringly at him, "Didn't you say you've never seen me dance? I'll show you tonight."

"Really?" Hongli's eyes lit up a little, and he asked happily.

"Has the concubine ever lied to you?"

"That's good, I'll wait and see!"

What Hongli gave to Xu Nian was a clock with a unique shape, which he designed himself and ordered the manufacturing office to make it for her.

Xu Nian walked down the high platform, followed by Hongli, "Click here to try?"

Xu Nian pressed it lightly, and the small black box on the top of the dowry suddenly opened, and an emerald green cuckoo popped out. At first glance, it looked lifelike, but when he got closer, he realized that it was carved from a whole piece of emerald. , only the eyes are dotted with two black agates, full of aura, exquisite and lovely, when seeing Xu Nian, he stretches out his green feathers and makes a cry of "cuckoo, cuckoo", which is very vivid.

"It's so beautiful!" Even Xu Nian, who has seen a lot of good things, couldn't help exclaiming, "This is really ingenious! But it's too expensive."

"If you like it, it's not a waste of money! You only hold a big birthday party every five years, and I want to give you the best." Hongli held Xu Nian's hand, his eyes full of warmth.

As Hongli's loyal little eunuch, Li Yu certainly did not forget to brag about his master from time to time.

"Empress, in order to give you a surprise, the emperor started drawing early on, changed it again and again, and ordered the clock to be made. They worked hard for a long time, and made a birthday clock, but the emperor said that our birthday is not celebrated in the Qing Dynasty. Give it away, and specially order them to remodel it, you see." Li Yu opened the dowry box, which contained all kinds of jewelry, most of which were emerald and agate jewelry, which happened to match the cuckoo cuckoo calling bird Li Yu smiled and said, "This is a dowry, but the small box on it can tell the time on time!"

"Your Majesty really took the trouble!" The gift was second, the most important thing was Hongli's thoughtfulness, Xu Nian's heart was sweet, and the smile on his face was three points sweeter than usual.

At night, after a grand fireworks, Xu Nian returned to Changchun Palace first.

Hongli changed into ordinary clothes, with a folding fan in his hand, followed by Li Yu and a group of guards, and marched towards the Changchun Palace in a mighty manner. Seeing his free and easy appearance, he looked like a noble son with nothing to do.

But when she reached the gate of the palace, she was stopped by Ruyu, who opened the letterhead in her hand, and there was a faint scent of jasmine on it, which was very similar to Xu Nian's smell, and she only had to talk about six words, "Just cover your eyes."

"Come on! Don't dawdle." Hongli told Li Yu who was beside him.

Hongli's eyes were covered with a layer of black satin, which further accentuated his jade-like complexion and bright red lips.

Xu Nian walked lightly, waved to the people behind him, and they bowed silently and retreated.

"Rongyin?" Hongli's voice sounded charming and provocative in this silent night.
