Chapter 209 Time, the most lacking time!
Everyone had an unforgettable winter.
The second day of the new year.
Snowflakes fell outside the window, covering the magnificent Forbidden City with a white blanket.
It was just dawn and there was silence outside the house; even the eunuchs in charge of cleaning had not gotten up yet.
On the big bed in Yongshou Palace, the two men had just finished fighting.
If it were in the past, Yongzheng would have just tidied himself up before going to court.
But today is different.
It’s the New Year, and today is a day off. He won’t have to go to court because he won’t be writing for the New Year.
Lying in the warm bed, the two people who had already washed up were honest with each other and enjoyed the warm time together.
The emotions afterwards are always so soothing and peaceful, that feeling of exhaustion and satisfaction cannot be replaced by anything else.
Perhaps only by doing this kind of work can one feel happy both physically and mentally.
The candle flame that had been burning all night flickered, and the wick made a slight crackling sound.
Luo Yao leaned her head on Yongzheng's hard chest and could clearly hear his strong heartbeat in her ears.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
It’s a bit fast, it seems that the boiling blood has not yet calmed down.
Yes, if a normal person worked like this every day, he would have died of exhaustion in bed long ago.
How can one be like Yongzheng, who is full of energy every day?
He thought he was gifted, but in fact it was Luo Yao who was secretly nourishing his body.
The wool comes from the sheep, and investment is for better returns, so Luo Yao doesn't feel sorry at all.
Feeling the skin that was smoother than silk, Yongzheng applied a little more force on his hands.
I have the urge to rub her into my body.
Luo Yao let out a moan and simply leaned half of her body on him.
"Why is the emperor frowning all the time? Hasn't the spread of smallpox been controlled?"
She didn't like Yongzheng's habit of frowning from time to time, which even caused wrinkles between his brows.
Even though one more thing may not seem like a lot, over time, it will add up to more and more!
Yongzheng sighed.
"The Queen Mother's illness is getting worse and worse. I am a little worried."
No matter what, this is still his mother.
Although most of the family affection has disappeared, she is still his mother in name.
If she died, it would have some impact on me.
Luo Yao's casual words were a panacea of comfort:
"Your Majesty, rest assured. The Queen Mother is blessed with a good life and will be fine."
Compared to the Queen Mother's illness, she was more concerned about Yixiu's movements.
Smallpox was most severe in two palaces.
One is Shoukang Palace and the other is Jingren Palace.
There were people like her in Yongshou Palace, but they were all blocked by her.
This is why she can sit firmly on the Diaoyutai because she has the system in her hands.
If not, I'm afraid it will be the same as the other two palaces.
The two children would inevitably be the first to suffer.
It can also be seen from this that this smallpox seems to be driven by a big hand in secret.
Focus on the important places!
If the Empress Dowager, the Queen, and her favorite concubine all died of smallpox.
So who is the beneficiary?
If you don't know who the mastermind is, you can tell most of the story by just looking at who the beneficiary is.
Compared with them, the situation in Yikun Palace was much better, so Luo Yao was very suspicious that it was Concubine Hua who did it.
Could it be that he wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop and let her be the one who reaps the spoils?
Thoughts raced through his mind, then she threw them aside.
Anyway, I have the system in my hands, so I am invincible.
What she lacks most now is time.
When Hongyi grows up a little more, she will take action even if others don't.
Fortunately, there are only two competitors at the moment: the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince.
The throne was almost within her reach.
It will be much easier when the child is older.
In the original drama, there was an epidemic, Noble Lady Fucha had a miscarriage after becoming pregnant, Zhen Huan became pregnant, and Concubine Hua was promoted to Noble Concubine Hua.
Then Zhen Huan had a miscarriage, Concubine Hua fell from favor, An Lingrong became favored, Zhen Huan sought favor after falling out of favor, butterflies praying for blessings flew all over the garden, and so on.
All of them were harmonized by this long-lasting ceiling.
Except for Luoyao, no one else in the harem is reported to be pregnant.
The emperor had few children, and no one came out to persuade him.
The Queen Mother and the Empress are both very busy, so no one else can get a say.
It wasn't until March of the following year that the smallpox was completely resolved.
Under the emperor's vigorous rectification, the Nian family has been able to drag on for so long, which is a bit of a desperate move.
They wanted to take drastic measures and remove all the high-ranking concubines in the palace.
But so far, only Concubine Duan has succeeded.
Or was it because she asked to die that she was able to do it?
For example, the Empress Dowager and the Queen, the people around them changed a lot, but they themselves managed to survive.
As for the Concubine Chen, she didn't even lose any servants.
This result was obviously not what Nian Gengyao wanted.
But Concubine Hua no longer wanted to continue.
She was afraid.
I’m afraid that my brother will continue to act on his own and drag the Nian family into trouble.
The fact that the Nian family has managed to hold on until now is already dancing on the edge of a knife.
She knew the man's methods, and she would be dead if she was discovered.
In other words, smallpox has a strong ability to spread, which is why they were able to spread the virus so easily.
Just find a few Deadpools to contact people who have been infected with smallpox, and after making sure they are also infected with smallpox, go out and contact outsiders.
Word of mouth spreads from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. One Deadpool can infect a large number of people.
There was no health code in ancient times...
It was too easy for the Nian family to place a few young palace maids and eunuchs in the family.
They are just the lowest level people, not in high positions.
Of course, it is precisely because of his low status that he cannot come into contact with those ladies.
When there were no new cases of the disease throughout March, the entire Forbidden City breathed a sigh of relief.
........................................
It's Yongshou Palace again.
In the side hall.
Two figures were struggling to climb on the ground.
"Hurry up, whoever comes first can get this new toy~"
The gentle female voice was playful and lively like the sound of a clear spring in a mountain stream.
Jinxi, Baizhi and others around were all watching with smiles on their faces.
At this moment, the side hall has been transformed into a playground for the twins.
All the tables, chairs, benches, screens, vases, etc. were removed.
Thick leather carpets were laid throughout the room.
Various white, black and red animal skins were spread out.
Such a large project directly emptied their old father’s small warehouse.
There is a wooden fence around the edge, and some open space is left.
It is used by the serving palace maids such as Jinxi to move around.
If anyone wants to come in, they must wash their feet first and then put on clean shoes and socks.
Luo Yao was inside at the moment, holding a small wooden horse toy in her hand, which she used as bait for fishing.
The two small fish that were caught are struggling to crawl forward.
