Chapter Four: Hometown of Shengjing

The light rain outside the window is beating against the bananas. This is the second year since I came to Shengjing. This year is the fourth year of Yongzheng. Yutang is nine years old. His elegant regular script has taken shape. On the desk is Hongli's sixth letter. The letter says

The Nian clan fell, and his concubine E Niang Xi was promoted to a noble concubine. When the time was right, he took her back to the palace.

Yutang just smiled. In the past two years, life in Shengjing was far happier than in the palace. Grandma was very good to her. Although she was so reluctant to leave the capital, that day, the concubine with seven treasures and umbrellas walked out of the Shenwu Gate.

Brother Li chased her all the way to Shenwumen, just to tell her that one day, he would take her back. "Master, the concubine said that the weather is nice today, and I want to ask you if you want to go for a walk in Kubel Grassland.

"Xiaohu, you're here again. We've already said that we are the same age, so don't always be the master. I'm only nine years old this year, but you call me like I'm forty-nine!"

Xiaohu is a Mongolian girl that Yutang bought in the market. Although she is similar in age, she takes care of Yutang like a big sister. The concubine is very satisfied. "I don't dare to overstep my bounds. If I buy a slave, Gege is my slave."

Master, slaves must be loyal to the master for the rest of their lives, even till death!" Yutang saw that the persuasion was useless, so she had to give up, "Okay, okay, go pack your things, and we will set off now. I grew up in Jiangnan and have never been there before.

Where is the grassland!" "I obey my command."

In the spring of Kubeier Grassland, at a glance, there are herds of cattle and sheep, and herdsmen gather next to the blue and white Obo. Yutang is dressed in an emerald green Mongolian costume, with silver bells on her temple braids, swaying with her movements, "Jingle Dang"

"Sound.

"Hey, what are they doing there? It's so lively! Let's go over and take a look..." Beside Obo, several mamas were surrounding an antelope lying on the ground moaning, gently stroking its bulging belly.

Tang: "It turns out we are about to give birth to a lamb baby. Look, Xiaohu, the legs are coming out!" Xiaohu looked worried: "Master, I'm afraid this little lamb will have a hard time surviving."

"Why, you see its legs are still moving!" Shanghai: "When I was a child, I saw antelopes giving birth. The nuns said that the lamb's head comes out first for a natural birth. If the lamb comes out feet first, the birth will be very difficult.

."Uncle Uzhaku: "You know so much at a young age, which family are you from?" Yutang wanted to reveal his identity, but was stopped by Xiaohu, "We are the girls from the Tong family manor in the upper reaches of the Hetao, following Madam

Come here to inspect the enclosure and look around."

"Hey..." The lamb's head was finally born with the help of the aunt. Yutang said, "Can you let me hug you? Such a cute little guy!" The aunt put the baby sheep into Yutang's arms.

The white lamb was still hazy and had not opened its eyes. Uzaku said, "It's a pity. This antelope is too old and couldn't survive." When Xiaohu saw Yutang's happy look, he told Uncle Uzaku

He called him aside and secretly gave him a piece of silver, "We bought this lamb, hush!" Yutang squatted next to the old antelope, imitating an aunt and gently caressing its head, "Baby sheep.

Mom, I will definitely help you take good care of it, don’t worry!”

On the carriage back to the Forbidden City in Shengjing, Yutang coaxed the baby sheep to sleep, and suddenly thought of something and asked: "Xiaohu, why did you lie just now and didn't tell the uncle our identity?" "The Dowager Empress once taught the slaves,

It is your duty to protect your master, and you must be on guard against others. Although this is the enclosure of the Tong family manor, as a member of the royal family, you must be cautious."

Whenever Yutang listens to Xiaohu speak, she always feels that she is more thoughtful and sensible than him, "Well, you did the right thing. Although I am not a real person, but for the majesty of the royal family, I will be more cautious in the future."

In Xiaohu's heart, the master will always be the most noble and noble person, the most important person..." Tang: "Well, the two of us will always be the best friends!"

In the evening, the two of them dined with Concubine Mi in the Yanqing Palace. The concubine gave two chicken legs to Yutang and Xiaohu respectively, "Thank you, grandma Zu!" "Thank you, concubine!" The concubine touched the two of them.

The head said, "You don't have to be so formal here. I just like to see you eat more. Tang'er, tell grandma, did you have fun today?"

"Well! I'm so happy. I brought back a baby sheep today. I want to keep it in the palace, is it okay?" The concubine looked at her expectant eyes and naturally couldn't bear to refuse, "This... little one

Sheep can be raised in the garden, but they are not allowed to be brought into the dormitory or study, you know?" Yutang clapped her hands and said, "Okay, I will ask Anda to build a small house for it in a while." Secret: "Yeah...

Grandma has promised you, how are you going to make Grandma happy?"

Yutang hugged the concubine's arm and said coquettishly: "I'll let Shantang'er play Spring River Flowers on a Moonlit Night for you, and sleep with grandma at night!" "Okay! You're so good..." The concubine glanced at Xiaohu.

, "Girl from Shanghai, come here too, I will tell you a story!"

The three of them gathered around the couch, and the concubine talked about the past with a happy smile on her face:

"I remember that it was during the forty-three years of Kangxi's reign. That year I was just elected to the palace, and I couldn't even put on my flowerpot-soled shoes. So I climbed up to the rockery to pick up a kite. I met him by chance. I lost my footing and fell off.

I went down and thought about how good this would be, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. He caught me steadily. No one was around at the time. He said that our first meeting was a secret that should not be shared by outsiders."

The concubine's eyes gradually dimmed, "Three days later, according to the order arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the late emperor visited me and made me a noble person. On that day, I asked him to give me the title of 'Secret', which was the title of "Secret" in my life.

It was the happiest and most heartbreaking period. Looking back now, it is still as clear as yesterday."

Yutang looked at the happy look of the concubine and thought of the forty-three years of Kangxi's reign. Today, her grandmother is only in her early thirties, but her temples are already gray, and her aunt is so cautious.
