Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 191 Chang Zai's Promotion 21

After Ji Huan asked, she said no more, and other concubines came one after another.

Half an hour later, the queen came out with a weak face: "Sixth Prince has improved, the emperor and Concubine Chun are taking care of him inside, the sisters can go back first."

"Yes, Queen."

Ji Huan happened to glance at Concubine Xian, and sure enough, he saw a flash of pity in her eyes. She was probably feeling sorry that the Sixth Prince didn't die.

Ji Huan asked the system in his mind: "System, what is the specific situation of the Sixth Prince?"

The system has monitoring and inspection functions for pregnancy, cubs, etc.

Separated by a wall, it is within the monitoring range of the system.

The system immediately said: "Although the Sixth Prince was rescued, the water is cold in autumn and he was drowned for a long time. I'm afraid he will have to take medicine all the time in the future."

"Is that so? Then Concubine Chun must be very sad."

As far as she knew, Imperial Concubine Chun had high hopes for the Sixth Prince. Although the Third Prince was older, he was not very smart. Imperial Concubine Chun was already an Imperial Concubine, so how could she not want to compete for that position?

The Sixth Prince was clever and lively, and was quite favored by Emperor Qianlong.

Strictly speaking, although Concubine Xian did not achieve her set goal, her plan did not fail.

It is certain that Concubine Chun is in pain, but I don't know whether she will think about trying for another baby. After all, she is not young anymore. The Queen gave birth to the Seventh Prince at an advanced age and ruined her health.

Concubine Chun is not much younger than Empress Fucha.

On the way back, she saw the backs of Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu walking together. She guessed that Concubine Xian must have found out that it was Concubine Shu's people who gave her the clue. The two concubines with high positions in the military flag were unable to have children.

Ji Huan smiled secretly in his heart, thinking that life in the harem would only be more exciting.

Returning to Tianran Painting, Ji Huan immediately ordered: "Prepare the pen and ink. I want to copy Buddhist scriptures for Sixth Prince to pray for his blessing."

"Yes, ma'am."

Copying Buddhist scriptures has almost become her character. She has never stopped copying Buddhist scriptures. Within less than a year after entering the palace, she had copied a lot of Buddhist scriptures and her handwriting became more and more advanced. She even won a lot of praise from Emperor Qianlong, who even gave her several seals, saying that they were for her to use for stamping.

Jihuan only stamped her seal on her own calligraphy and paintings. She was too embarrassed to stamp on those sent by Qianlong.

The story of the Sixth Prince ended unexpectedly. Concubine Chun didn't believe it, but she couldn't find out anything, so she had to give up.

Ji Huan also understood that the calculations between the high-ranking concubines in the harem were always accurate as long as they were intentional. Qianlong was in good health, and there were many pregnancies in the harem over the years, but not many births, which was not surprising.

Soon, autumn passed safely and winter came.

Concubine Jia gave birth prematurely to a prince, who died at birth.

Qianlong decided to return to the palace, and Jihuan had no choice but to leave the Old Summer Palace. To be honest, she was very reluctant to leave, as the natural painting was much more comfortable to live in than the main hall of the Xianfu Palace.

But this is not for her to decide.

The carriage swayed safely into the Forbidden City.

The Forbidden City in winter looks different, very solemn and serious.

As soon as Ji Huan got up, she heard Shu Xiang come in and say, "My queen, it's snowing!"

"This year the snow came really early and it was heavy."

"Yes, Xiao Anzi built two snowmen early in the morning. You can take a look when you get up. They are very interesting!"

The palace is lonely, and the servants serving in the palace will always try their best to make their masters happy. Making snowmen is not something uncommon, but Jihuan is indeed somewhat interested in it.

After getting up, she put on warm clothes and had her meal. The snow was still falling outside, and the palace servants kept clearing the snow to at least ensure there was a way out.

There were indeed two snowmen standing in the yard, very cute, one was a cat and the other was a dog, both of huge size.

Ji Huan was pleasantly surprised by what he saw.

"This snowman is well made, and the book is fragrant and admirable. The weather is getting colder now. Put a pot in the tea room and keep ginger soup and hot water ready at all times. Everyone should drink at least one bowl to avoid getting sick."

"Your Majesty, please be merciful. I will arrange it right away."

Jihuan was very considerate to the palace servants. In the summer, they could always drink mung bean soup to relieve the heat, and in the winter, they could have soup and ginger soup to ward off the cold. They would be rewarded if they ran errands on weekdays, and they would also be rewarded if they did a good job.

It can be said that as long as you are loyal and dedicated when working in Xianfu Palace, your life will not be too bad.

Spending a lot of money has obvious results.

In the afternoon, the snow was still falling and Jihuan was bored. He saw Qianlong's red dot coming out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation and seemed to be heading towards the Jianfu Palace.

Ji Huan said, "I heard that Jingyixuan has planted a lot of plum blossoms. It's fun to enjoy plum blossoms in the snow in winter. Let's go and have a look!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Jingyixuan is located in the garden of Jianfu Palace, not far from Xianfu Palace.

The Forbidden City was particularly quiet during the snowfall. There was almost no one on the road leading from Xianfu Palace to Jingyixuan, and Jihuan soon reached his destination.

Qianlong hasn't arrived yet, which is good. Qianlong is a control freak and doesn't like anyone inquiring about his whereabouts. An accidental encounter is fine, but deliberately creating an encounter is not.

"The jade bones are not worried about the miasma, and the icy figure has its own fairy style! Shuxiang, bring the scissors, I will personally cut a few plum blossoms to take back."

Shuxiang smiled and said, "Yes, Madam."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qianlong said: "My beloved concubine is so elegant!"

When Ji Huan saw Qianlong, his eyes lit up and he hurriedly greeted him: "Your Majesty, may the emperor be blessed with good health."

Qianlong helped her up and said, "No need to be polite. My beloved concubine just recited Su Shi's Xijiangyue. Plum Blossoms. Although this poem is good, it contains the meaning of mourning."

Ji Huan laughed: "Although there is a sense of mourning, there is more of a sense of sustenance. Using plum blossoms to describe people and to express feelings is also another way of praising plum blossoms!"

"My beloved concubine's words are refreshing to me. Yes, Mr. Dongpo's poem really describes the nobleness of plum blossoms. My beloved concubine is someone who understands plum blossoms and poetry."

"I have shown off my limited knowledge in front of Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty doesn't think that I am shallow."

"If my beloved concubine is so shallow, then there is no one in my harem who has profound knowledge. I just saw you want to cut plum blossoms, but you haven't started yet. I will accompany you!"

"It is my honor."

Then the two of them faced the snow and cut plum blossoms in the small Jingyixuan. While talking about the plum blossoms, they chatted about poetry and songs. The more they talked, the more they got along. Then Qianlong went directly to Xianfu Palace and naturally stayed there at night.

Ever since Jihuan brought Qianlong back to Xianfu Palace from Jingyixuan, the originally very quiet Jingyixuan has been visited by concubines from time to time. How should I put it? It's not surprising at all.

In the harem, the emperor is the only center, and competing for favor is the only thing they can, must and must do.

Just like Ji Huan, she might not lack favor at all, but she still had to compete for favor. She had to show that she needed Qianlong's favor. This was the duty of the concubines in the harem.

Of course, the rewards for winning favor are also generous.

Jihuan was playing with the lifelike plum blossom jade bonsai. If you didn't look carefully, you would probably think it was a real plum blossom.

There are also two authentic paintings of plum blossoms.

It seems that Qianlong had a very enjoyable chat in Jingyixuan yesterday!

Yes, Qianlong was an emperor with high demands. Jihuan could almost catch whatever he said, and then give him just the right amount of compliments. Occasionally, she would ask him with some doubts, and Qianlong would give the answers, and Jihuan would look at him with admiration.

Indeed, few men can refuse.
