Chapter 171: The Unequaled Son Borrowed Wine to Drown His Sorrows

Although he was born with a pair of tiger eyes and beard, he has a bit of Confucian demeanor in his speech, and he is the brother of the famous Shunzhi Emperor Dong E, and the son of the third-class Bo Eshuo of the Minister of the Interior. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Nalan Rongruo took a sip of the wine glass, and said: "How can my brother be regarded as a soft-spoken person, you have made remarkable contributions in the rebellion of the three feudatories, and now Prince De'an has been promoted, and he has become the minister of the guard, and he is the minister of parliament, and it is the time to be high-spirited and serve the country." ā€

"Those who don't know me say what I want, and those who know me say I'm worried," Feiyangu sighed: "I, Amma, died early, and if there is no Prince An to take care of me all these years, I Feiyangu still don't know what kind of situation I have fallen into." I hit it off with my virtuous brother at first sight, and I didn't hide much, these years the emperor has always looked at me Dong E is not pleasing to the eye, and suppressed everywhere, if it were not for the rebellion of the three feudatories, it was the time to employ people, and I would never have half of the opportunity to get ahead. Even now, I, the minister of the guard, am just a vain name, and the emperor is still afraid of me. ā€

Nalan Rongruo sighed: "The wind knows the strength of the grass, and the bandang knows the loyal ministers." After all, my brother is a person of merit, and now he is just a pearl covered with dust, and there will always be a day to shine. ā€

Feiyangu filled the glass of wine for the two of them, and said: "The virtuous brother is brilliant, don't be presumptuous, I am just a martial artist, and the talent of the virtuous brother can be famous for a hundred years." ā€

Nalan Rongruo's expression was sad, he lifted the wine glass and drank it all, and said dejectedly: "What about a full stomach of poetry and books?" In the end, it still fell into the situation of raising horses for the Son of Heaven. ā€

Feiyangu also knew that he was demoted to the upper courtyard, and only said with a little regret: "The emperor is difficult for me, because of my sister, you are close to me, but it has affected you." ā€

Nalan Rongruo said sincerely: "Brother, don't say this, you and my brother are incompatible, how can we disperse due to the situation." ā€

Fei Yanggu's chest was hot, he took out a cup of drink, took out the Western pocket watch under his arm, looked at it, and said: "The hour is not early, the virtuous brother should go back to the house early, so as not to worry about Mrs. Zun." ā€

Nalan Rongruo drank the residual wine in the cup, only to feel that the incomparable hard work flowed in his heart, and then stood up, and said to Fei Yanggu: "I'll go to my brother's mansion another day." ā€

The two brothers went downstairs together, and Nalan Rongruo sent Feiyangu away on horseback first.

This restaurant was originally the business of the Nalan family, so the shopkeeper saw Feiyangu leaving, hurriedly walked to Rong Ruo's side, handed over the cloak and said: "The master has drunk the wine, don't ride a horse, the old slave has arranged a soft sedan chair to escort the master back to the house." ā€

Rong Yue raised his hand to stop his words, took the whip and reins from Xiao Luxi's hand, and stepped on the horse, before Chinese New Year's Eve, and when he was near, there were many fewer people on the road, Nalan Rongruo raised the whip and drove the horse one after another, and rode away in the dust.

Lu Xi was busy with the shopkeeper's arch hand, and the prancing horse caught up.

After a short time, when they arrived at the gate of the house, Mrs. Nalan had already sent someone to wait at the door, and when she heard the sound of the bell, she hurriedly opened the corner door, welcomed the people into the house, and brought the horses to feed.

Nalan Rongruo was blown by the wind, and most of the wine on his face dissipated, and before he entered the second door, he saw a little maid serving in the house come up and asked, "Uncle is back, where are you going to rest?" ā€

Nalan Rongruo said: "Go to Aunt Tao's yard." ā€

The maid hurriedly replied: "Aunt Tao was called by grandma to go to the room to serve all night." ā€

Nalan Rongruo's eyebrows frowned slightly, a trace of disgust flashed in her beautiful eyes, and then she asked, "Who takes care of the rich brother?" ā€

The maid replied, "The eldest brother is at Aunt Yan's." ā€

Nalan Rongruo nodded, said no more, turned around and walked towards the outer study.

The night sky is like washing, clear and not stained with a trace of filth, the sky is scattered with a little morning star, but there is still a half-string waning moon, and it is also very cold, as if Fang was fished out of the ice and snow of Tianchi, but it is clean like broken jade, pure and white color, deceiving frost and snow.

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, Rong Yue also got up early, changed her clothes, pushed the window to see that there was still a line of moonlight outside, sprinkled on the old stone steps, slightly white, she buttoned the neckline, washed her face, and sat in front of the makeup mirror to make up.

Under the big festival, the face of the spring morning is also with some joy, one wall selects jewelry from the makeup box, and the other wall says: "Today's palace has a family banquet, and the master chooses this cheongsam with a blue-green silk lotus root and white edge and a brocade flower peony pattern is a little more plain, why not choose some bright jewelry, the queen mother likes it when she sees it?" ā€

Rong Yue picked up the red-gold-dotted emerald mandarin duck double-strand hairpin and put it on, and said with a smile: "Aren't I green leaves with red flowers?" He laughed happily and said, "What you said is, since that's the case, just pick two phoenix hairpins inlaid with emeralds." ā€

Chun Zao glanced at her, and complained: "I've never seen such an unserious master." "I still chose two silver silk tourmaline peony hairpins, and picked up a phoenix hairpin inlaid with emeralds and put it on.

Rong Yue glanced at the mirror, and saw that there was no mistake or omission, so she tied the ferret and went to Cining Palace and Shoukang Palace to ask for peace, and the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager were also very festive on their faces, everything was in order as usual, and the score was exactly the same.

Knowing that the emperor got up from Chengqian Palace early in the morning and went around the Wenhua Palace, she went to Chengqian Palace again, and the people in Chengqian Palace are used to watching people put down dishes, Rong Yue is now respected as a noble concubine, they naturally dare not make a mistake, and hurriedly welcome in.

The imperial concubine got up lazily, combed her hair in a bun that was served by her mother, and the corners of her eyebrows and eyes were charming, and she was in a good mood today, so she ridiculed Rong Yue a few words lightly.

Since Rong Yue has accepted the fact that the emperor cannot be favored, naturally he will not eat this flying vinegar, but only smiled and looked at the imperial concubine on the side, while saying: "The empress dowager once taught the concubines to share more worries for the imperial concubines, and if you want to come to the family banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve today, things will inevitably be chaotic, and the concubines are not talented, and they are willing to give the concubine a hand." ā€

The imperial concubine was quite surprised, she regarded her power as her life, and naturally refused to give it up, so she only sighed slightly as if she was very embarrassed: "Where can you do this?" The routine dishes and banquets in the palace cannot be taken care of alone for one or two years, but I am just more tired. ā€

Concubine Hui came in and returned to the couplet blessing bags everywhere have been distributed according to the number, and sent the signed booklet, Tong Guifei took it in her hand, rolled her eyes, and said to Rong Yue: "But since you have a heart, I can't refuse you, lest others say that I can't tolerate people." ā€

She casually put the booklet on the dressing table beside her, and continued: "You are in charge of today's accounting, and you will check with me when you have summarized the plates and utensils, vegetables, chickens and ducks. ā€

Concubine Hui's eyes waved, and when she saw that Rong Yue had responded, she didn't say anything more.

When she went out, Concubine Hui said: "This errand is tricky, if it doesn't go from your hands, it will always be given to you, it is a thankless task, even if there is no mistake or omission, she will complain about you if she doesn't have it, I'm afraid that your feet will not touch the ground today, and the palace family banquet is over, and you don't have time to say a word to the emperor."
