A fairy from various TV dramas and movies travels through time, starting with Consort Fucha.

Chapter 109 Consort Fucha (add 1 stroke) 109

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window and into the room, waking Fucha Peiyun from her deep sleep.

She slowly woke up and sat up, her wrist adorned with a jade bracelet.

It is very eye-catching in the sunlight.

Ye'er and the others immediately noticed the bracelet on Fucha Peiyun's wrist.

They had never seen this bracelet before; it seemed to have appeared out of thin air in Fucha Peiyun's hands.

But as servants, they were well aware of their status and duty.

I understand that some things are better left unsaid, and I should keep quiet about things that shouldn't be said.

So despite being filled with curiosity

But no one asked about the bracelet's origin.

After Fucha Peiyun finished washing up

She then scooped up Hongchang, who was asleep on the bed with his hands raised.

She took the handkerchief Ye'er handed her and wiped his face.

Hongchang opened his eyes and smiled at Fucha Peiyun.

Ye'er handed him another glass of water, with a small spoon inside.

Fucha Peiyun used a small spoon to scoop water and feed it to Hongchang's mouth.

Hongchang had already practiced rinsing his mouth with a mouthful of water.

Then he spat the water into the spittoon that Xiaohuzi was holding.

It was only after repeating this several times that it was finally finished.

After the mother and son finished their breakfast.

Fucha Peiyun was pushing a specially made stroller, which was based on her own drawings.

The upper body of the vehicle was made entirely of wood, while the wheels underneath were made of super-fine iron.

Besides this baby carriage, which was rushed out of the Imperial Household Department's possession.

There are also some fun things to do to pass the time.

Fucha Peiyun pushed Hongchang in a stroller.

With Ye'er and the others by his side, he was pushed around the Yuanmingyuan Garden like a street urchin.

Since I've come all this way to the Old Summer Palace, of course I have to explore everywhere.

Also, check if there's anything wrong with Feng Ruozhao and the others' accommodations.

I'm afraid that even though the Empress didn't come to the Yuanmingyuan, she might still reach out to us.

However, Fucha Peiyun first went to Nian Shilan's Qingliang Palace.

Even when they were still some distance from Qingliang Hall, Fucha Peiyun could hear the melodious and pleasant sounds of string and wind instruments.

Presumably, when Nian Shilan came to the Yuanmingyuan, she brought along those beautiful women with her.

Before they even got close, some sharp-eyed people spotted Consort Fucha Peiyun.

The man dared not delay and hurriedly ran to report to Nian Shilan.

Upon reaching the courtyard, they saw Nian Shilan sitting leisurely on the veranda.

I watched as several beautiful women either gently strummed the strings of a musical instrument or danced gracefully.

The scene was truly breathtaking and captivating.

Nian Shilan immediately spotted Fucha Peiyun pushing Hongchang over.

Her eyes lit up, but she said:

"Oh, why did you suddenly bring Hongchang to my Qingliang Palace today?"

Upon hearing this, Fucha Peiyun smiled and said:

"It's really lively here at the Imperial Noble Consort's place. I can hear the music from far away even before I've arrived."

Or do you know how to enjoy it?

The Yuanmingyuan Garden was a pleasant place with beautiful scenery, and it wasn't as stuffy as the palace.

I was thinking of taking Hongchang out for a stroll.

It's good for the child to broaden his horizons; it's not good for him to always stay cooped up indoors.

Nian Shilan gently raised her hand, and the palace maid serving beside her hurriedly stepped forward.

They carefully moved a carved sandalwood chair over and placed it to the side.

Fucha Peiyun gestured for her to sit down and said:

"Please sit down. Do you need to be so polite with me?"

Fucha Peiyun slowly sat down. Hongchang sat in the trolley.

Fucha Peiyun landed on several beauties not far away.

His eyes revealed admiration as he praised Nian Shilan:

"Her Imperial Noble Consort has an excellent eye for choosing people!"

These girls are all so beautiful and talented.

Nian Shilan couldn't help but chuckle smugly, and said:

"My judgment is certainly correct; staying in this garden..."

There weren't many other ways to pass the time, so he could only find amusement in these beautiful women.

Nian Shilan turned her gaze with great interest to the cart in which Hongchang was sitting.

"This stroller is quite nice; I've never seen it before."

Fucha Peiyun smiled slightly and explained softly:

"I also find it inconvenient to travel with my child."

So, after much thought and effort, he drew this blueprint.

Then he specifically instructed the Imperial Household Department to build it according to this design.

Nian Shilan nodded slightly in approval.

Fucha Peiyun said, "If you want to pass the time, there are actually many things you can do."

Nian Shilan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Oh? What is it? Tell me."

Fucha Peiyun smiled faintly:

"I've heard that the Imperial Noble Consort is quite skilled in horsemanship and archery?"

Nian Shilan then suddenly remembered that she had previously been an expert in both horsemanship and archery.

There was a horse riding area in Yuanmingyuan, so she could go there to ride horses.

Nian Shilan looked at Fucha Peiyun with surprise.

"I had completely forgotten about this. You were born into the Manchu bannermen; your horsemanship and archery skills must be quite good, right?"

Fucha Peiyun had "some knowledge" of the matter.

Nian Shilan said, "I haven't ridden a horse in a long time. Why don't you accompany me to the horse farm?"

Fucha Peiyun said, "Tomorrow. I have other things to do today."

Nian Shilan couldn't wait to go horseback riding. "What is it?"

Fucha Peiyun said, "I'll sit here for a while. I'll go visit Consort Jing and Consort Jin later."

Nian Shilan said, "What are you going to do there? They're all pregnant women; you can't be too gentle or too rough with them."

Fucha Peiyun "wanted to go and see the scenery over there at Bitong Academy."

Nian Shilan pouted, "What's so interesting about Bitong Academy? It's much more enjoyable to go horseback riding with me."

Fucha Peiyun responded with a smile.

"Your Highness, please don't be in a hurry. We will definitely accompany you for a proper ride another day. There is truly an important matter to attend to today."

After saying that, he prepared to get up and take his leave.

Nian Shilan said, "I will accompany you to see it, and in the afternoon you will accompany me to ride horses."

Fucha Peiyun had no choice but to agree, "Alright then."

Seeing that Fucha Peiyun had agreed, Nian Shilan waved her hand.

He gestured for all the palace maids who were playing the zither and dancing to leave.

Then, she turned around and asked Fucha Peiyun:

Is there anything wrong with my attire?

Should I get a fresh wash and dress up again?

Fucha Peiyun's gaze quickly swept over Nian Shilan's entire body, then she gently shook her head.

"No need, this is perfect."

Nian Shilan nodded in satisfaction.

Subsequently, Nian Shilan led Songzhi and Zhou Ninghai, while Fucha Peiyun pushed Hongchang.

He then led Ye'er and the others towards the Bitong Academy.

Bitong Academy is surrounded by mountains and dense forests, offering a tranquil environment. The buildings consist of courtyards of varying sizes arranged in a staggered pattern.

There are three courtyards in total

During this visit to the Yuanmingyuan, Consort Jing, Feng Ruozhao, chose the Bitong Academy.

When Fucha Peiyun, Nian Shilan, and others arrived at Bitong Academy, Feng Ruozhao was reading a book in the corridor.

Since that incident, the pregnant women, including Feng Ruozhao, Cao Qinmo, and Lü Yingfeng, have started reading.

Whenever he has time, he always has a book in his hand.

They hope that after their unborn daughter is born, they will have the ability to provide her with early education.

Upon hearing Ji Xiang's report, Feng Ruozhao was somewhat surprised and put down the book in her hand.

Feng Ruozhao, supporting Jixiang with one hand and her belly with the other, went out to greet them.

"Your Highness, Imperial Noble Consort, and Your Highness Consort Shu, what brings you here today?"

Nian Shilan looked at Fucha Peiyun and said, "I came with her."

Fucha Peiyun smiled and said, "I want to see the scenery of Bitong Academy, sister."

Feng Ruozhao smiled and said:

“Everywhere in the Yuanmingyuan Garden is a scenic spot.”

Feng Ruozhao led the two into the courtyard.

Fucha Peiyun picked up Hongchang, and Xiaohuzi quickly carried the stroller into the yard.

Fucha Peiyun said with a smile:

"This place is quiet and elegant, very suitable for reading and resting during pregnancy."

After Fucha Peiyun stepped into the courtyard, she began to look around.

Bitong Academy is mostly planted with sycamore trees.

It's still summer, and this vast expanse of green brings a sense of peace.

In autumn, when the leaves of the sycamore tree turn pale yellow or golden yellow...

It must be even more breathtaking.

Feng Ruozhao then led them into the house.

The interior is simply yet elegantly furnished, without excessive or fussy decorations.

But every item was placed perfectly, making people feel exceptionally comfortable.

A pot of blooming flowers sits on the windowsill, emitting a faint fragrance;

A simple and elegant calligraphy and painting hangs on the wall, adding a touch of scholarly atmosphere.

Fucha Peiyun stood in front of the screen and frowned.

Seeing this, Feng Ruozhao walked over and looked at Fucha Peiyun with a puzzled expression.

Fucha Peiyun looked at Feng Ruozhao.

"Sister, this painting is quite nice. Did you bring it from the palace?"

Feng Ruozhao shook her head. "No, it wasn't. It was already in this house."

I found the painting quite elegant, so I kept it.

Nian Shilan had been looking around listlessly when she heard them talking about the painting.

So he came over and looked at the paintings on the wall.

Nian Shilan glanced at the painting, a mocking smile playing on her lips.

"This painting isn't particularly outstanding; the colors are pale, and the brushwork is ordinary."

It's only good enough to be displayed in a place like this, just for show.

Feng Ruozhao didn't care much about whether the painting was hung there or not.

But Consort Shu's sudden mention of the painting must have a purpose.

Just as Consort Shu had said the painting was good, Consort Huang immediately denigrated it, calling it utterly worthless.

If it were someone else, they would probably be dissatisfied.

Fucha Peiyun gave Feng Ruozhao a subtle nod.

Feng Ruozhao was puzzled, but she followed Nian Shilan's words.

"Since the Imperial Noble Consort doesn't approve of this painting, then I will put it away."

Nian Shilan: "If you like painting, I happen to have two of them."

"I'll have someone bring it to you shortly."

Feng Ruozhao quickly declined, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, but it's not necessary."

"Since I said I would give it to you, you should just accept it."

"Stop making excuses, or you'll be disrespecting me."

Seeing Nian Shilan's insistence, Feng Ruozhao had no choice but to express her gratitude.

"Your Majesty, I am deeply grateful for the Imperial Noble Consort's generous gift."

Fucha Peiyun went around to Feng Ruozhao again.

I saw something hidden a few more times and used my eyes to signal that it was inappropriate.

Feng Ruozhao didn't understand at first, but she quickly realized it.

These things are problematic; they are likely harmful to the fetus.

It seems that Consort Shu came here today specifically to remind her of this.

Although Nian Shilan wasn't that perceptive, she wasn't stupid either.

He had originally intended to urge Fucha Peiyun, but he suppressed that thought.

He began to cooperate with Fucha Peiyun

After finding all these items, Fucha Peiyun and Nian Shilan sat with Feng Ruozhao for a while.

Having just left Bitong Academy, they were preparing to go to their next destination.

On the road, Nian Shilan Road

"I didn't expect you to be so magnanimous, meddling in this kind of thing?"

Fucha Peiyun: "The Imperial Noble Consort has thought too highly of me."

I'm only willing to meddle in this matter because it doesn't bother me and is in my best interest.

Nian Shilan asked suspiciously, "I haven't seen this matter benefit you much."

After seeing off Fucha Peiyun and the others, Feng Ruozhao of Bitong Academy asked Jixiang to take down the painting on the wall.

She also told Jixiang to put the painting far away from her, as far away as possible.

Ji Xiang asked in confusion

"Your Highness, the Imperial Noble Consort doesn't come here often, so why put this painting away?"

Is there something wrong with this painting?

This painting is quite ordinary, so what could be wrong with it?

Moreover, when we came in yesterday, Granny Gui had already checked everything inside and out.”

Feng Ruozhao: "We just arrived at the Yuanmingyuan yesterday."

Today, Consort Shu and Imperial Noble Consort have come here.

We'll be staying in the garden to escape the summer heat for at least two months.

If Consort Shu is merely enjoying the scenery, then there's no rush.

After a pause, Feng Ruozhao continued...

"That just means the method used this time was too secretive, and Granny Gui failed to discover it."

Consort Shu is one of the few people who has been able to safely give birth to a child while under the Empress's care all these years.

Her methods were mysterious, and she knew more than Granny Gui.

Another possibility is that Granny Gui had a change of heart.

But I think that's very unlikely.

Granny Gui was given to me by the Emperor, and she has helped me avoid many dangers these past few months.

I do not believe she would have any disloyal intentions.

Jixiang nodded

Feng Ruozhao said, "Go and invite Granny Gui over so she can take another look at this painting."

Jixiang said, "This servant will go right away."

Not long after Jixiang left in a hurry, Granny Gui followed Jixiang to Feng Ruozhao.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Granny Gui bowed respectfully.

Feng Ruozhao stayed far away.

He pointed to the painting on the table.

"Granny, take a close look at this painting. Is there anything wrong with it?"

Granny Gui stepped forward, examined the painting carefully, and then inhaled its scent.

Granny Gui's brows gradually furrowed.

“Your Majesty, this old servant did indeed inspect this room yesterday and did not find anything unusual about the painting.”

But upon closer inspection now, the paint in this painting seems to have a strange smell.

Feng Ruozhao's expression changed slightly.

"Then, in your opinion, is this painting harmful to the fetus?"

Granny Gui hesitated for a moment,

"This old servant dares not say for sure, but this smell is truly unbearable after a while."

It could very well be harmful to the fetus.

As she spoke, Granny Gui knelt down on the ground again, feeling extremely guilty.

"It's all because this old servant is incompetent that I failed to discover this dangerous object."

You and your unborn baby were almost hurt.

Feng Ruozhao quickly had Jixiang help Granny Gui up and comforted her:

"Don't blame yourself, Granny. The person behind this must have put in a lot of effort. Even you were almost fooled."

Granny Gui nodded gratefully.

Feng Ruozhao then pointed to several other items and asked Granny Gui to check them again.

After carefully examining those items, Granny Gui's expression grew increasingly grave.

"Your Majesty, these items are fine when separated, but if they are kept together, they will cause problems over time."

The fetus in the Empress's womb may die in utero or..."

Feng Ruozhao hurriedly asked, "Or what?"

Granny Gui looked troubled and whispered, "Perhaps the child will be mentally challenged."

Upon hearing this, Feng Ruozhao turned pale and instinctively covered her abdomen with her hands.

Seeing this, Granny Gui was afraid that Feng Ruozhao's emotions were fluctuating too much.

Harm to the fetus in the womb

She quickly reassured her, "Your Majesty, the little princess is perfectly fine."

You must stay calm.

"Calm down, Your Majesty. Take a deep breath and think of the little princess in your womb."

After taking a deep breath, Feng Ruozhao slowly calmed down.

"Granny Gui, you're in charge of handling all these things."

Be very careful.

Granny Gui replied, "Yes, this old servant will definitely take care of these matters."

We will be even more careful in the future and will never allow such things to come near Your Majesty again.

Feng Ruozhao waved his hand

Granny Gui quickly took her leave.

"This time it's all thanks to Consort Shu, and this time it's probably the Empress again."

I really hope the Empress is deposed; if only she were Consort Shu.

Feng Ruozhao: "You can keep these words to yourself."
