178. Clear rules and regulations
Unexpected!
Unexpected ...... Enjoy?
I actually entered the palace, on the Chinese New Year's Eve of family reunion.
Kangxi wants to open it?
Looking at his appearance, he is indeed not as energetic as he was four years ago, he has lost a lot of weight, and his back is not so straight, I think Yinzhen said that he has been sick for more than two months, but it is true.
Maybe when people get old, their hearts will be soft, maybe it's because I've been very well-behaved in the capital these months. Anyway, this time I can enjoy the family banquet as Prince Yong's concubine, no matter what the blessing or the bad, at least I can go home first.
For my appearance, everyone was only shocked, given that Kangxi sat high and saw far away, he naturally didn't dare to be too surprised under the nose of his old man, and the wine and meat were still in progress.
Yinxiang and Xiaoyan are also there, Xiaoyan's belly is bulging, and it looks like she is about to give birth, no wonder she hasn't come to see me. Yinxiang raised his glass from afar, and he could feel his happiness from a long distance.
Yinzhen sat next to me, holding the wine glass and stopping at the table for a long time, almost in the same posture as the young beauty sitting beside him. Both of them looked at the wine in their hands, but their expressions were very different.
Yinzhen, who often tightens his face, looks relaxed at this time, although he is sitting motionless, his slightly drooping eyelashes are under the light, but there is some watery warmth. The slender fingers pinched the wine glass and turned it slightly, and the thumb gently stroked the blue flowers and leaves that turned from thick to light along the edge of the glass, and the corners of the lips were just right to bend into a soft arc.
When he walked over from Kangxi's side, Lan Si had automatically moved to the back table and sat with the three of the Song family, and Xiao Nian sat on the other side of Yinzhen as if he was glued to the stool, still with some disbelief on his face. The delicate makeup often smiles on the little face as if it is frozen layer by layer of ice and snow, and the delicate outline is like a cage of distant mountains and smoke and clouds, frowning on the round eyes of the apricot kernel that is full of charm but has lost its brilliance, the tip of the small and delicate nose gradually turns pink and wrinkles slightly, and the delicate red lips are bitten by the neat white teeth, which looks unhappy but forbearant and stubborn, which makes me a little unbearable, but I ...... The unkind heart is blooming.
Such a Chinese New Year's Eve meal, eating is really a special taste in my heart, I feel a little bad, although there is still a little regret for the absence of Honghui, but I can see Xiao Nian so expression, comfortable.
There was an extra piece of delicate mung bean yellow on the plate in front of him, and Yinzhen's voice was light and fluttering, "Taste it." β
The afterglow swept to the half of the small face exposed behind Yinzhen, and his eyes were watery and looked back and forth at us. The sweet fragrance in his mouth almost stuck in his throat, and he clutched his chopsticks tightly and didn't dare to swallow it hard.
The teacup is brought to the mouth, and it rains in time...... Pulling the cuffs before touching the cup and the lips were not wet, hearing the chuckle of the woman next to him, he hurriedly took it with his hand, pretending not to see the smile on the face of the third master Fujin, and lowered his head and poured it carefully.
Fortunately, it seems that no one has found out about this trouble.
Eyes swept over the audience, Yinxiang was holding a wine glass and listening to the fourteen whispers, the two of them talked for a while, and they didn't know what they were laughing at, and they looked at me and raised their glasses together. is still filial piety and kindness, and does not fool in with them.
"Fujin ......" Xiao Nian's soft voice echoes in the winter night, and it is still quite beautiful in the winter night, some ethereal ambiguity, used to call me, it is inevitable to spoil such a good voice, I don't know how the man sounds and feels.
The wine jug was held down by Yinzhen with his hand, and the fingers of the two people flashed in front of my eyes, frozen into a picture. The glow of the ruby was reflected in the white glazed bottle, the slender fingers clenched the neck of the same thin and soft lines, and the back of the white jade-like soft and silky hand faintly saw a few light shades of blue shining on it, as vivid as the blue and white flowers in her hands.
Xiao Nian's eyes were fixed on the ring, and he didn't move a single inch for a while. The wine overflowed from Yinzhen's fingers, and the glittering light slid down the slender fingers to the fingertips, quietly dripping on the table.
Turning his head to look at the two brothers sitting across from him, and his empty wine glass, he pretended not to see her nodding and putting the wine jug back in front of him, and took the handkerchief before handing it out and clutched it back into his palm.
Xiaoyan sat next to Yinxiang, and took out a handkerchief to cover her mouth in a small way, but she couldn't see it clearly, but she knew that she was smiling evilly.
Yinzhen handed over the wine that had drunk most of it, and his knuckles touched the hollow gold bracelet on my wrist that was slightly exposed, plus an instruct, "Drink less, if you want to drink it home, drink it again." β
This is the legendary wine that everyone is drunk if they are not drunk. Kangxi, my father, why do you want me to come back today, is this the little sister of the Nian family who is full of resentment, or am I not very virtuous and generous?
It's just the bottom of a cup, half a sip of warm wine, which actually makes me hot all the way from my throat to the bottom of my heart, and even the roots of my ears are hot.
The first Kangxi took Li Dequan away, and the concubines left their seats one by one with the support of the maids, and the fireworks in the sky pierced the night sky in accordance with the scene, shining with the falling snow.
The smell of fireworks instantly covered up the aroma of wine, as well as the long and graceful plum fragrance floating in the air, and of course, the faint and good-smelling sandalwood fragrance on Yinzhen's body. What makes me happiest is that the sandalwood on Xiao Nian's body that makes me smell unpleasant has also disappeared. Damn it!
The palace, the capital, I, under the fireworks in the sky, officially entered the 55th year of Kangxi.
Five years for the Hongwan siblings to emerge from a large group of emperors and grandchildren is enough for them to grow from a child in my eyes to the young teenager they are today, but I still recognize them at a glance.
Bone and blood are connected, time and space, no matter how far apart they are or how long they are separated, they are not distances.
Bang'er, who used to love to talk and laugh, blinked and blinked, and the bright light flashed in the bottom of her eyes, stubbornly biting her thin lower lip, holding my hand and shaking it gently, without the slightest alienation, a voice of Eniang can still soften my heart, and the sweetness is almost instantaneous.
Hongwan stood behind her, half a head above Bang'er, her thin shoulders and back were straight, she pursed her lips slightly when she looked at me, her jaw collapsed tightly, her voice was low and hoarse like Yinzhen, and even her expression was similar, completely lacking Honghui's childlike nature when he was 15 years old. He was the same as his sister, only a short sentence, very light, and then a long silence.
Two faces that were once so similar have changed so much in five years. Under a closer look, the eyebrows and eyes are still similar, but they are not like, the bigger Hongwan is, the more like Yinzhen, silent and introverted, invisible.
The two sisters and brothers stood together and saw us in a trance.
When I married Yinzhen, I was two years younger than them now, but I was also coquettish and cheating like Bang'er? The impatient young man who would laugh and be angry back then, standing beside me at this time, has matured to a mess, seeing this daughter who is very similar to me, will you think of me back then, or us?
I couldn't tell the difference between Hongli and Hongday, two little boys kneeling side by side in front of them, calling Eniang in unison. They all have the shadow of Yinzhen on their faces, even if they are young, they are still similar. Based on the children's words I heard in the lion park that day, I was still at a loss.
I feel that the voice on the left is like some and I feel that the boy on the right with sparkling eyes is more loving, thinking that it should be the kid on the right, and I am afraid that I will mistakenly admit the real son on the left.
The two boys knelt on the ground and looked up at me and then at Yinzhen, before they wanted to step forward and pull the two up together, but the person next to them had already opened their mouths, and after a few words, Gao Wuyong asked Gao Wuyong to send the women back to the house first.
In that group of children, I didn't see Nian's beautiful little daughter, and I don't know if she survived the cold. If you're still alive, you're about to turn one year old now.
Concubine De is still leaning on the couch as in previous years, her son and daughter-in-law are sitting in a room, and her grandchildren are lively and warm. It's just that a few traces of silver hidden in her sideburns are clearly visible, like snowflakes that have never fallen on them, and have not melted for a long time.
I watched it stupidly, imagining what it would be like to be at such an age, even if I still look wise and dignified like her, I still have to face the helplessness of the years and the knife urging people to grow old. At that time, Yinzhen would still treat me like today, and at that time, would I be like today's Xiao Nian, and I would be sent back to the house after the palace banquet was over. No, at that time, we should all live here, but we all went back to our respective palaces, one person looked gorgeous and noble, and the red face disappeared in it.
Hongli and Hongday are like a pair of little monkeys with boundless skin, and the children in the room are not as good as the two of them, which makes Concubine De giggle, and her fingertips poke at the two smooth heads, and she screams for the fourth child to take them back to the house quickly, lest the roof be overturned.
I sat in the chair and looked at Yinzhen's Yan sΓΉ-like face, and I was actually smiling in my eyes. It is estimated that he wanted to do this when he was a child, but unfortunately until he got on the train of Bensi, he was not able to toss in this Yonghe Palace to the fullest. Now, these two sons can be regarded as helping him realize his dream, and even his brother-in-law is not as spiritual as this pair of living treasures when he was the most playful back then.
Xiaoyan leaned into my ear and laughed quietly, "I guess, this is his nature, the inheritance is the most real, and he can't deceive anyone." β
Smiling noncommittally, Concubine De had already grabbed the two boys and looked over, and the room was so quiet that only the chuckles of me and Xiaoyan could be heard.
"What are you laughing at? Saying it also makes me happy as a mother. β
pulled the veil and covered it to his mouth, touched Xiaoyan's big belly and stroked it twice, and continued to smile at Concubine De, "Back to E-Niang's words, Xiaoyan saw that E-Niang likes children, and told her daughter-in-law that she wanted to give birth soon, and it was best to be such a fun-loving little brother, so as to make E-niang happier." β
Concubine De said yes again and again, and kept telling Xiaoyan to pay attention to this and be careful about that, and urged Yinxiang to take his wife and children back to the house quickly, don't burden the pregnant woman and daughter-in-law who are going to give birth to her grandchildren. A little bit of a hand also instructed Yinzhen and Peihan a few words, which meant nothing more than to let them work hard to create people while they were young.
Xiaoyan's face was red and red, twisting his veil and bowing his head silently, only Yinxiang and I knew that it was not ashamed, it was really angry like this.
The pot-bellied woman was not honest, so she took advantage of the dark night and high wind to walk on the narrow palace road and pinched me fiercely on the side of my waist. is really the most poisonous woman in the world, and she is now a combination of a woman and a villain, even if it is difficult to raise, it can't be provoked.
I finally stepped into the gate of Prince Yong's mansion, and it was above board.
It's really big, and it's become strange and familiar to me, like a memory of what I once remembered. Today's palace already has the appearance of Lama Temple, after merging the Eight Masters' Mansion.
My yard hasn't changed, it's still the same as it used to be, small and quiet.
Every door, every furnishing, is like that of the past.
Mei Yu and Reconciliation knelt in the courtyard, one crying and the other laughing.
Bang'er took my hand and was about to follow into the threshold, Hongwan's voice sounded behind me, and for a moment, I suddenly thought it was Yinzhen.
"Go back to your room. β
Bang'er's little face was a little red, hooked my fingers and slowly tightened, and looked at Yinzhen standing behind me and shrunk her neck.
Angry? Ruyi didn't say that Yinzhen always couldn't do anything with her? Why do I think he still has the majesty of being a father, Bang'er is obviously afraid of him. Even Hongwan doesn't look like a younger brother, but like a brother disciplining his younger sister.
"E-Niang is back, the happiest person should be Amma, Bang'er will not stir Ama and E-Niang to catch up, Ming'er will knock on E-Niang's door again in the morning, but you have to get up early. β
The girl in my ear is more ...... than she was back then I really don't know who she has learned from in the past few years, and she can even say this kind of thing. Just now, I was still feeling sorry for her little girl and needed love, but now I really want to push her to the middle of the yard, regardless of whether it is Yinzhen or Hongwan, beat her first.
At this time, it turned out to be a son's intimate, no need to be a father's eyes, Hongwan had already pulled her sleeve and dragged her to the boudoir, and before she could speak again, the ghost girl had already jumped into the room with a grin, and when she closed the door, she stuck out her tongue at me and laughed.
Hongwan shook his head and bent down at us, turned around and walked back to his room.
These two children still live in my yard, Hongday, I guess they are following the twilight. The two children were already asleep in the carriage and were taken away by Gao Wuyong and Su Peisheng, and I didn't even say a few words to him.
The courtyard outside the window is clearly reflected by the snow and moonlight, but there is no more scenery in sight. The original courtyard has changed, and the women have their own spaces, and I don't know where they live, and I can't see Hongday's room.
"Don't think about it anymore, Ming'er will let you see him. Yinzhen's voice was very soft, and it sounded a little illusory in the night.
The hand around my waist was light, but it was close to his body behind his back, and I could feel his heartbeat and breathing.
"Yinzhen. β
This one, I know, is different from the past, a thousand words, I don't know where to start, it seems, there is no need to say it again. Because I'm back, no matter what happened, no matter how we were separated and together in those five years, and how much we missed, I can truly stand by his side in the future.
The palm of his hand gently caressed the side of my waist, stopping there to hold down the faint pain, he knew.
Without words, Yinzhen's eyes were dark and bright, and he looked out the window quietly, his cheeks were as light as his warm palms slowly rubbing against mine.
Turning back between his arms, he kissed gently, my thoughts, love, all, a qiΔ.
There was no more sighing, in the quiet moonlight, there was, just his response, gentle and lingering.
Yinzhen, I miss you and love you.
