Lin Xi woke up from a nap, and Yuanyuan opened the curtain to help him up. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Young master, the housekeeper mother of the Yongning Marquis Mansion has arrived, and Mother Zhou is sitting with her. ”

Tuan Tuan came in with a washbasin towel, moistened the hot water and wiped Lin Xi's face, "Same as in previous years, Mrs. Tai asked the young master to go over to celebrate the New Year together." ”

Lin Xi stood straight like a hanger and opened his hands to let the two girls change their clothes, and sighed: "This year is not as easy as in previous years. ”

Yuan Yuan and Tuan Tuan glanced at each other, lowered their heads together and stopped talking.

"Ouch, the young master is finally here, the old lady has been waiting for a long time. ”

Ren's mother in front of Chongjin Hall looked at the white figure from afar, and immediately smiled and went to greet her.

"It's snowing so hard, does Young Master Cousin feel cold? ”

Lin Xi was wearing a silver fox cloak, and a snow-white fox down scarf around his neck, hiding his hands in the cloak and holding the stove, and he really didn't feel cold.

Lin Xi smiled and said, "Mother Lao Ren is worried." Then he looked into the Chongjin Hall, and Yuanyuan behind him took a step forward and stuffed a big red envelope into Ren's mother's hand, and the fat girl smiled and held her hand, "Mom has worked hard this year, and the young master has a little heart to keep for the New Year, eat wine and buy fruits." ”

"The old slave has thanked the young master. Ren's mother smiled, and said with a smile inside, "The eldest lady is busy inside and outside and has not come to ask for peace, the fourth lady, the eldest young grandmother, the second young grandmother, and the third young lady are already inside, the eldest young master and the second young master are in the front yard with the old master and the fourth master, and the other young masters and young ladies are still afraid that they will not come until the banquet opens." ”

Lin Xi understood, and raised his feet and entered the Chongjin Hall.

"The grandson greets his grandmother and the fourth aunt. ”

Lin Xi respectfully saluted Mrs. Tai and the Shan family at her hand, saluted with her two cousins-in-law, and finally bowed to Xiao Jinxin.

After the ceremony, the second cousin-in-law, Jiang, withdrew with Xiao Jinxin, leaving only Bai standing behind Mrs. Yu and looking at Lin Xi with a smile.

As soon as the people left, Mrs. Tai glared at him and said angrily: "The old woman doesn't send someone to call, so she doesn't step in?

Lin Xi immediately laughed when he heard this, since Zhao Jingyi came back, he even went to Baifu for less time, most of the time he was either in the Rui Wangfu to accompany the prince, or the prince climbed over the wall into the Lin Mansion to warm up, because the distance between the two mansions is not far, it is quite convenient, and the days to the Yongning Marquis Mansion are even less.

Looking back now, it really makes Lin Xi feel guilty.

Shan glanced at Lin Xi and said with a smile: "Our old lady is really, this person is always looking forward to it when he doesn't come, and as soon as this nephew comes, he starts to blame, don't scare people away, and in the end he can only talk to us."

。 ”

"Just talk too much. Mrs. Tai laughed and scolded.

Saying this, Lin Xi was really full of guilt, and hurriedly bowed, "It's the grandson's no, ignoring the grandmother, and the grandson will often come over to talk to you in the future." ”

The old lady was also coaxing, and she was not really angry, but she immediately became kind because of this soft sentence, "I know that you are busy, I heard that Mr. Bai said that he was going to enter the national prison after the beginning of spring?"

Lin Xi replied: "Yes, the teacher said that there are many talented people in the country, and there are countless people with outstanding literary talents, and the grandson's vision is limited now, and he needs to communicate with other talents to increase his knowledge." ”

"The old gentleman always thinks long-term and thoughtful, Xi'er can listen a lot, don't be naughty and annoy him. ”

Lin Xi hurriedly responded.

Mrs. Tai bowed her head again and again, smiling lovingly.

Shan Shi rolled his eyes and was full of admiration, "After entering the Guozi Prison, it is one step closer to Jinshi, and now the Guozi Prison is the eldest master of the Bai family, presumably the nephew can always take care of one or two more, but I don't know ...... How did Second Lady Bai think about it, can our nephew still be able to enter the magic eye?"

Having said that, his eyes had already glanced at the Bai clan who was standing behind Mrs. Tai.

I only heard Bai's laughter, "The fourth aunt just asks, is it possible for the nephew and daughter-in-law to hide it?" My second aunt is a cheerful person, my grandfather and father have agreed, and my cousin's future should be good, so she said that it depends on the person and the family, but do you still need to worry about this?"

Mrs. Tai patted Bai's hand and said, "Good boy, you have worked hard, if it is done, grandmother will give you a big matchmaker red envelope." ”

Bai smiled and leaned on Mrs. Tai and said: "The old lady's red envelope will definitely be received, and the cousin's thank you matchmaker gift will not be missing, and then the granddaughter-in-law will go back to her parents' house, and she can come back with a circle, and next year's incense powder money will be available." ”

"Ouch, look at our young grandmother, this careful appearance, where did the sister-in-law find the money basket, in the future, I will find one for our sixth young master according to this mold, and you can make money by yourself, and the burden of the master is really a lot lighter." Isn't it the same with the second lady of the Bai family? That nephew is blessed. ”

Shan covered his handkerchief and joked, and suddenly the room was filled with the laughter of high, medium and low women.

Lin Xi tugged at the corners of his mouth, and couldn't help but take a small step back, at this time he really wanted to turn into a woman and run out in shame.

At this time, Mrs. Tai was in high spirits at this time, and it was really not the time to be disappointed, Lin Xi thought about it and retreated, "Grandmother, grandson will go to greet the two uncles first, and then come to talk to you." ”

If you can't afford to provoke it, you can only avoid it, if the old lady is unhappy on Chinese New Year's Eve, no one will have a good year this year.

It also seemed that seeing Lin Xi's embarrassment, Mrs. Tai waved her hand magnanimously and allowed him to leave.

Zhao Jingyi spent three Chinese New Year's Eve outside, and this year she can finally spend it in the capital.

And you Zhao Yuanrong was finally able to sit next to his father this time, he was in a good mood and bent his eyes to see everyone smiling, looking at the light and neat singing and dancing in the middle, he leaned into Zhao Jingyi's ear and said, "It would be nice if my cousin was also there." ”

If such a family of three can be together, Zhao Yuanrong clasped his hands in front of his chest, with an expression that is enough for his life.

Zhao Jingyi took a sip of sake and almost squirted it out, he put the cup aside and beckoned

A little eunuch walked quickly, bowed his head and asked respectfully, "Lord Wang?"

"This king is still in filial piety, it is not appropriate to drink alcohol and change tea. ”

"Yes. The little eunuch hurriedly removed the wine glass and wine jug, and after a while, he changed the tea and came up, "Please forgive the prince." ”

Zhao Jingyi waved his hand and asked him to retreat.

Emperor Xia Jing sat on the high dragon chair, looked at it and nodded slightly, "This kid is too sincere." ”

Concubine Shu took a full cup of wine and sent it to Emperor Xia Jingdi's mouth, "The concubine heard that Prince Rui wants to keep the filial piety period for the old prince and the princess, it seems to be true, the prince is really filial." ”

Emperor Xia Jing took it and said with a smile: "My nephew, just like his father, can't pull back the eight cows, if I hadn't ordered him to enter the palace today, the eight achievements would not have come out in the palace." ”

Concubine Shu looked sideways at Prince Rui, then lowered her eyelids, and pinched Xia Jingdi's shoulders to watch the song and dance below.

Another virtuous concubine said: "There is no one who can compare with the Rui prince in the Manchu Dynasty, that is, the king of Shu, and the concubines always advise him to learn more from the Rui prince, talk less and do more practical things, and solve problems for the emperor. ”

"What you said is still like a thing, yes, if the fifth child can think like this, he will grow. Emperor Xia Jing was in a good mood, so he said a few more words, "Don't treat other people as fools, everyone can see what you do with your head down, and I can see it clearly." ”

Concubine Xian glanced at King Shu, and King Shu immediately got up with a wine glass and said, "The sons and daughters follow the teachings of their fathers and emperors, and today on Chinese New Year's Eve, the sons and daughters will pay tribute to their fathers and emperors." ”

Saying that, he drank it in one gulp, and then he ordered the people to be full, and then walked towards Zhao Jingyi opposite.

"Jingyi, knowing that you drink tea, my brother will not embarrass you, replace the wine with tea, our brothers will toast a cup, in the future, my brother will not do enough, just mention it, the last point is that our brotherhood has increased a point, please." ”

Zhao Jingyi immediately got up, held the teacup in both hands, and said respectfully: "Brother Shu Wang knows that we are brothers, so there is no need to say these words, the foolish brother has been away for three years, there are two mothers in the palace to take care of Rong'er, and there are brothers outside to take care of him, this affectionate foolish brother is in mind." It's inconvenient today, wait for the filial piety period, and then accompany Brother Wang to drink happily, please. ”

"That's how it should be between brothers. Emperor Xia Jing smiled heartily and inadvertently glanced at King Liang, who was about to move.

The concubine immediately said to King Liang lightly: "You are the elder, you should be the first, is it difficult to let the two younger brothers wait for you? ”

King Liang straightened his sleeves, slowly got up and walked over, "My son is embarrassed, seeing that the two younger brothers have a good relationship, I am really envious, lick your face, don't push my brother away." I don't salute them one by one, let's drink this cup with three brothers.

Liang Wanggang raised his glass and stopped again, only to see him suddenly turn his face sideways and wave to the side of the banquet, "I almost forgot, Xiao Jiu, you come over too." ”

Zhao Jingyu was ignored in the past and never participated in the banquet, but in the past few years, he has gradually become like a prince after entering the Chongwen Pavilion, and he has appeared at the banquet with treatment, unlike the two royal brothers of the stars and the moon, he has just been sitting silently on the side.

Today, he was suddenly pointed out by King Liang, and he was a little stunned for a while.

"What are you doing stupidly, come here, you are also the prince, the younger brother of this king, if you want to drink let's drink together, the royal brother will take care of you more in the future."

。 ”

The clan at the bottom saw it clearly, with different expressions on their faces, and the sight of the God King of His Majesty, it was the first time that Zhao Jingyu received such a gaze. He hesitated, bit his lip and slowly got up, walked to the main hall, his heart was pounding, but his hand took the white jade wine glass of King Liang steadily, and drank it with all his brothers.

"Fabulous. Emperor Xia Jing stroked his palms and smiled, quite appreciative of looking at them one by one, especially looking at King Liang's gaze with obvious satisfaction, "With the demeanor of an eldest brother, it should be like this, brother and brother Gong, let me worry less." ”

"The harmony of the princes is the blessing of the society and the blessing of the emperor. The clan exclaimed with great admiration.

The concubine curled the corners of her lips and lowered her eyes secretly, she didn't need to look at the slightly gloomy face of the concubine opposite.

After three rounds of wine, the New Year is approaching, and the dishes in the palace are sent out one by one, waiting for the bell to ring.

At this time, the dance music retreated, and Emperor Xia Jing said: "I still remember the Lantern Festival three years ago, I wanted to have fun with the people, but I ran into the Hunu assassins, although I was not satisfied, but the people should be happy. This year is a real year of victory, and it should be done in a big way, this time Prince Rui said, tonight's curfew will be lifted, fireworks will be set up in front of the palace gate, and you will enjoy it with the Immortal Tower!"

As soon as Emperor Xia Jingdi's words fell, a chorus came from the next place.

As if sensing something, Zhao Yuanrong immediately turned his head to look at his father, stretched out his hand and pulled Zhao Jingyi's python robe tightly, the latter touched his head, "Rong'er, my father has to arrange guards, and let Gonggong Cao accompany you to watch the fireworks, okay?"

This reason is legitimate, Zhao Yuanrong really has no reason not to let go, but his father would suggest that the emperor light fireworks?

Don't be funny!

Zhao Yuanrong looked at Zhao Jingyi suspiciously, only to see that the latter had a serious face, as if asking him not to make trouble. He pursed his lips, and suddenly came to his heart, "Father, send me to my cousin." ”

"Your cousin is staying with Mrs. Tai and others in the Yongning Marquis Mansion, didn't you bother you when you rushed to go?" Zhao Jingyi frowned.

And what does it matter?

Zhao Yuanrong was dissatisfied, but as the prince of the palace, it was really not suitable to disturb people in the middle of the night on this day, so he had to let go of the python suit little by little, lowered his head, and shrugged his small shoulders, even looking at the back of his head, he felt extremely aggrieved.

Zhao Jingyi's heart softened, and then he said softly: "On the day of the Lantern Festival, let's take Lin Xi to visit the temple fair, okay?"

Zhao Yuanrong didn't speak.

The father and son, who haven't gotten along much since they left for three years, really can't get along, but Zhao Jingyi always feels a little guilty, so he patiently continues to coax: "I'll make you a cat and mouse lantern again." ”

"I want Journey to the West!" Zhao Yuanrong suddenly raised his head and shouted.

Vaguely impressed, Zhao Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay." He nodded, and beckoned Gonggong Cao to come over and take this little ancestor away.

Zhao Yuanrong reached his goal, suddenly turned his head, and said unceremoniously: "Fooling a three-year-old child, he must have gone to see his cousin secretly, and he didn't want to bring others, hum! I'm not rare! Don't forget the temple fair and lanterns!" Then he raised his chin and took Gonggong Cao's hand and left.

Gonggong Cao snorted, lowered his head and covered his mouth, followed the majestic prince and hurriedly slipped away, and the prince was speechless.

People say that someone in their hearts will become stupid, and it seems to be true.
