Kangxi forty-three years is destined to be a good year.

In the first month, Kangxi married the prince, set up Tang Jia's family as the side blessing, and gave birth to a little brother that year. In June, the four products of the ceremony Lingzhu Nu Niu Hulu Yu Huang's fourth son Yinzhen in the domain. In the same month, Ilgen Jue Luo, the daughter of the second-class guard Shi Bao, was established as the side blessing in the fourteenth elder brother.

Such a move, a series of happy events in the palace, but also washed away the sad atmosphere of the death of Prince Yu and Prince Gong last year. Looking at the entire harem, Concubine De can be said to be supreme, the three marriages, except for the prince, the other two are all Kangxi personally appointed to marry Concubine De's son, this kind of glory is self-evident.

Niu Co Lu, she finally married, and then Hongli was born. One is the future Qing Dynasty empress dowager who will be honored in one body, and the other is the Qing emperor who will rule the country for 60 years. Then, watching him keep his head up, watching him fight openly and secretly, watching him go to the pinnacle of power, watching him work hard for more than ten years, watching him grow old in the unfinished hegemony, and watching him leave behind the infamy and praise of eternity.

I can't tell what it's like to feel in my heart, is it sadness? Is it poignant? Or does it hurt? Maybe nothing. He is a dragonfly, passing by little by little, leaving only a circle of ripples, in his heart, unwilling to disperse.

Career and love, there is always the same pride. If you say that in the past half a year, there are still some things that can be said, that is, I am here in Kangxi, and I am getting more and more able to speak, but can this also be regarded as a good thing? Zhu Zhen smiled self-deprecatingly, even if it was a trump card for self-preservation. It's just that this trump card, when he really wants to take his life, no one can stop it.

On the first day of October, it was the birthday of the thirteenth elder brother, and Zhu Zhen had already prepared the gift, and informed the thirteenth elder brother one day in advance, asking him to find an opportunity to go to his courtyard this day. Fortunately, with his current identity, he already lives in a small courtyard alone, even if the thirteenth elder brother comes, he will not be too public.

Early in the morning, Xiao Dizi came over, saying that the thirteenth elder brother had just entered the palace, and he went to the palace of Concubine De to ask for peace first, and he would come over in about half an hour.

Thinking that the thirteenth elder brother had probably eaten longevity noodles in his own mansion or at Concubine De's place, Zhu Zhen didn't prepare longevity noodles anymore, and only made a few snacks himself. In less than half an hour, the thirteenth elder brother really arrived, and as soon as he entered the door, he stretched out his hand to the bamboo basket to ask for a salute. Zhu Zhen slapped the thirteenth elder brother's hand down, and said, "What's the hurry, a dignified elder brother, and a little palace maid want a gift, are you embarrassed to speak?" ”

The thirteenth elder brother didn't care, he retreated to the table with a smile, and said, "You called me over, didn't you just want to give gifts?" If it's your good intentions, how can I refuse? As he spoke, he picked up a spoon and scooped a piece of dim sum into his mouth, but he covered his cheeks and exclaimed, "What is this?" ”

Zhu Zhen glanced at him with a smile, handed over a cup of warm water, and said, "Send it to your mouth without asking, and you're not afraid of eating the wrong thing?" ”

The thirteenth elder brother waved his hand, did not take the water cup in the bamboo basket's hand, and waited to eliminate the snack in his mouth, and said: "I feel happy to get used to it!" As he spoke, he scooped another piece into his mouth, "You actually passed this ice skate over the oil pan?" ”

"Are you still used to eating?" Seeing the thirteenth elder brother nodding, Zhu Zhen said, "I sometimes like to eat ice in the winter, and I am afraid that I will hurt my body by being greedy for cold, so I think that this way of eating can satisfy my cravings without worrying about my stomach not being able to bear it." ”

Seeing that the thirteenth elder brother was able to eat hard piece by piece, Zhu Zheng hurriedly pumped his spoon and said, "This is cold, just eat two pieces, you eat all this plate, and you are not afraid of stomach trouble?" As he spoke, he took out the gift he had prepared before and handed it to the Thirteenth Elder Brother.

The thirteenth elder brother took the glass jar and said in surprise: "This is?" ”

"It's the lucky star, the little thing that is stacked and played." Zhu Zhen smiled.

"Such a big jar, why are there thousands, how long have you been folding?" The thirteenth elder brother took the hand of the bamboo basket, looked at it carefully, and said distressedly, "It's just a birthday, it's not a big deal, don't tire yourself for this thing in the future, look at your fingers, does it hurt a lot?" ”

Zhu Zhen retracted his hand and said, "Knowing that I have worked hard, you can keep this jar of stars, although it is not worth much, but you must not just leave it aside." ”

The thirteenth elder brother smiled and rubbed the head of the bamboo basket and said, "I know, I must keep it well!" ”

"Always?" Zhu Zhen asked.

"Always, always!" Thirteen smiled and responded.

Thirteen, this is not only a few thousand stars, but also a piece of my heart, in the next ten years, maybe these stars will not be able to solve any difficulties for you, but they can help you relieve your boredom and make those days less difficult.

"And." Bamboo Basket suddenly remembered something.

"What's the matter?" Thirteen ways.

"If you give me a gift in the future, you don't have to think hard, just give gold and silver jewelry or something, of course, if you are willing to give me gold and silver directly, you are more welcome!" Zhu Zhen said with a smile.

"Bamboo, bamboo basket, are you really so short of money?"

I'm not short of money, I'm afraid you're short of money, Zhu Zhen muttered in his heart, and said to the thirteenth elder brother: "It's always good to prepare more money, in case something happens, it's always okay to be emergency." ”

Naturally, the thirteenth elder brother did not really only send gold and silver to the bamboo basket, but he would give some of them, for this, the thirteenth elder brother was laughed at by several other brothers for many years, but every year the bamboo basket will still receive either a golden hairpin or a silver handpiece, which is a carefully selected style, and the harmful bamboo basket is distressed when he thinks that he may have to sell these jewelry in the future.

In the afternoon, Kangxi was on an errand with the bamboo basket, and Kangxi was reading the excerpts, and said casually: "Li Dequan, go and ask where Yinxiang is?" ”

Li Dequan hurriedly retreated, and after a while, he came back to report: "If you go back to the emperor, the thirteenth master is talking at the master." ”

"Hmm." Kangxi groaned and said, "Bamboo basket." ”

Zhu Ji hurriedly took two steps forward and said, "The slave is here." ”

"Today is the birthday of the Thirteenth Elder Brother, and I will send the horn bow hanging on the north wall of Xinuan Pavilion to the Thirteenth Elder Brother." Kangxi commanded.

"Yes." The bamboo basket led the order to retreat, went to Xinuan Pavilion to get a bow and arrow, held a tray, covered it with a yellow veil, and went to Concubine De's Yonghe Palace. Zhu Zhen led two low-ranking palace maids, and the bow and arrow were held by the two people, Zhu Zhen walked all the way ahead, beating the drum in his heart, what if he met Sibeile at Concubine De? It shouldn't be such a coincidence, just let yourself hit the right one, right? No, even if you do, just make a salute, give a reward and leave. The bamboo basket was calm, but the palms were still sweaty.

Outside the Yonghe Palace, the bamboo hoop took the tray and made it clear to the palace maid waiting outside Concubine De's house, and after a while, he entered the house. As soon as he entered the house, Zhu Zhen saw the four Baylors on the seat, so the woman in the palace costume he started was Niu Co Lu's family? The new daughter-in-law sees her mother-in-law, and the family gossips about homely things, what a happy scene.

The bamboo basket calmed himself down for the first time, and said loudly: "The emperor has a decree to reward the thirteenth elder brother with a horn bow and a pot of arrows to enjoy the joy of his birthday." ”

Headed by Concubine De, the four Baylors, the thirteenth elder brother, the Niu Colu clan and a cadre of palace female eunuchs in the palace knelt on the ground in an uproar and thanked them.

Zhu Zhen handed over the things to the thirteenth elder brother, politely refused Concubine De's hospitality, and without looking at Sibeile again, he led the two palace maids out of Yonghe Palace.

Walking far away in one breath, the bamboo basket gradually slowed down his pace, it turned out that it was still useless, thinking that after that time, he could put it down, but when he really saw it, he found that what he forgot and what he put down, it was all self-deception. That woman looks very ordinary, her appearance and size are not outstanding, looking at her submissive appearance, I am afraid that she is a typical ancient woman who takes her husband as the sky, what is so good about her? She is so ordinary, but she is such an ordinary woman, sitting next to him openly, watching him all the time, sleeping with him, eating at the same table, giving birth to children for him, and having him!

Zhu Zhen is very conflicted in her heart, she spits on herself like this, but on the other hand, she can't control herself, she feels that she is going crazy with jealousy, but she can't, this is in the palace, Kangxi is still waiting for her life in the Qianqing Palace, even if her heart is blocked, no matter how bad it is, she must be restrained and restrained. Suppressing the fire in his heart, the bamboo basket counted the seconds and took the turn.

The genius was dark, and the bamboo basket went to Chuxiu Palace in the dark.

"Bamboo basket? Why are you here on this big night? Looking at the sudden arrival of the bamboo basket, Yingluo was surprised, although the two have been in contact with each other over the years, and they have not been estranged due to the transfer of the bamboo basket, but the bamboo basket has always been cautious in words and deeds, and this late night is the first time.

"Are you on duty at night?" Zhu Zhen asked.

"I shouldn't be on duty at night, what, but what happened?" Yingluo shook her head.

"That's good." Zhu Zhen grabbed Yingluo's wrist and said, "Drink with me." ”

Hearing this, Yingluo was startled and said, "What kind of wine do you drink?" Where did I get my wine? ”

Zhu Zhen smiled: "Don't hide it from me, do you still have fewer wine worms in your stomach?" When I don't know how much good wine you've secretly saved? ”

When Yingluo heard Zhu Zong's words, she hurriedly covered her mouth and said to her: "Good Zhu Zong, don't let others hear it, if I let Aunt Chu Yi know, I won't be able to eat and go around." Looking around, Yingluo said, "It's okay to drink, but you can't drink in my house, otherwise it will be bad if you ask Baozhu to come back and bump into it." Let's go to the north side of the road, no one goes there on weekdays, so I don't think I will be bumped into. ”

Zhu Zhen nodded, and the two of them moved several jars of wine to Yongdao.

found a leeward place, the two sat on the ground, and without saying a word, they picked up the altar wine and poured it into their mouths. Seeing that a jar of wine was poured clean by the bamboo basket, Yingluo said distressedly: "Bamboo basket, according to your cow drinking method, it really spoils my good wine!" ”

Zhu Zhen wiped the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, and said with a smile: "How can there be good or bad wine, what can make people drunk is good wine!" As he spoke, he took another jar and poured it into his mouth.

Yingluo also picked up a jar, took a sip, and said, "What you say is not unreasonable. Zhu Zhen, what are you worried about? ”

The bamboo basket waved his hand and said, "What's the trouble?" It's just that I haven't seen you for a long time, and I'm a little hungry for wine, and I just don't have to be on duty at night, so I'm just looking for you to ask for a few glasses of wine. ”

Yingluo didn't ask any more questions, but only drank with the bamboo basket.

It didn't take much time, and there was an empty bunch of wine jars on the ground, and the bamboo basket picked up this one was empty, and that one was empty, and saw that Yingluo was still holding an altar in her arms, and grabbed it, and without waiting for Yingluo to stop it, the last half of the jar of wine was also poured into her stomach.

The bamboo basket asked for wine indiscriminately, and poured it into Yingluo's arms crookedly, Yingluo hugged the bamboo basket and called her a few times, seeing that there was no reaction, she was anxious for a while, and said in her heart, if the bamboo basket was drunk here for a night, it would be a big trouble, it was far away from the Qianqing Palace, and it was not easy to send her back.

Thinking of this, Yingluo only felt that she was one head and two big. Pregnant! Yingluo leaned the bamboo basket against the corner of the wall, hurriedly went back to the house to make a pot of strong tea, and carefully fed it to the bamboo basket to drink. After a pot of tea, the bamboo basket was a little sober. Yingluo hurriedly patted Zhu Zheng's face and said, "Zhu Zong, Zhu Zheng, you are sober, it's getting late, I'll send you back." ”

Zhu Zhen picked up a few traces of sobriety, nodded, and stood up with the strength of Yingluo, his head was still dizzy, but he could still hold on. Zhu Zhen bit his lower lip vigorously, and with Yingluo's support, he walked towards the Qianqing Palace.

When she was about to arrive at the Qianqing Palace, Yingluo stopped and said: "I'm about to go to the Qianqing Palace, the gate is strictly controlled here, I'm afraid it's not easy to enter, can you do it yourself?" ”

Although Zhu Zhen felt that his head was heavy and his steps were light, he still nodded at Yingluo and said, "Don't worry, I still know the way, you can go back first." ”

Yingluo was still not at ease, and watched the bamboo basket walk in, before turning around and returning to Chuxiu Palace.

The way back to the house is long, several times, I want to go to sleep directly, but it doesn't matter if I sleep this time, my life may be about to fall asleep, shaking his head, the bamboo basket sped up his steps to his house. Finally entered his yard without danger, and Zhu Zhen felt that his whole body was fluttering and top-heavy, and he staggered all the way into the house.

Just as he closed the door and was about to pounce on the cute bed, Zhu Zhen heard a voice behind him: "What did you do?" All of a sudden, he was so frightened that he turned back in a panic, and in the dark, he couldn't see anything clearly. Instinctively, the bamboo basket stepped back.

"Be careful!" The heels of the bamboo basket only touched something, and before the body fell backwards, the waist was grabbed by a force, and then leaned into a warm embrace.

"You've been drinking?" There was disapproval and blame in the voice.

Zhu Zhen pushed away the embrace and shouted, "What's wrong with drinking?" I love to drink, I love to drink, which one are you, why do you care about me? Can you control me? As he spoke, he became aggrieved, and the blockage surged up from his chest, to his throat, to the tip of his nose, and to his eyes.

"Bamboo basket!" Sibeile took two more steps forward, but the bamboo basket stepped back even more.

"I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep, don't bother me, leave quickly!" The bamboo basket waved his arms wildly, only knowing that he kept going backwards, all the way back.

Seeing that Zhu Zhen was panicking to get away from him, Si Beile was upset for a while, strode forward to pull Zhu Zhen closer to him, and asked, "Why are you drinking?" ”

The bamboo basket struggled with his arm, but this time he couldn't break free, and he still shouted: "I love to drink, why should I tell you, who are you?" Why am I telling you? You let go of me! You let go of me! Zhu Zhen only felt that her arm seemed to be clamped by two iron tongs, and she couldn't break free, so she yelled in pain, "Are you crazy? You lunatic! ”

"I'm crazy, I'm crazy, I'm going to leave Xinna's Gege and run to you for a few hours!" The strength in Si Baylor's hand is undiminished, the bamboo basket can't be broken, she doesn't want to hear anything about "Xinna's Gege", why everyone has "Xinna's Gege", he has, and the person in front of her who has been disturbing her sleep is also there, is "Xinna's Gege" so good? If it's really that good, she'll accept one too.

The bamboo basket couldn't break free, so he simply stopped struggling, hanging his arms, and kept repeating the phrase "let me go", his voice became smaller and smaller, and his head was buried lower and lower, and finally, the bamboo basket cried: "You let me go, let me go!" I beg you! Leave me alone. ”

Kissing, falling, caught off guard, the bamboo basket forgot to resist for a while, and the tears in his eyes were full of tears, and he suddenly slid down two lines. Eventually, she reacted and began to twist and writhe, dodging the kiss of Four Baylor. However, no matter where she hid, she could not avoid his lips, and no matter how she broke free, she could not break free from his embrace.

When Sibeile's kiss finally left, "Zhen'er", with just one sound, her anger and unwillingness turned into a grievance, and tears filled and fell: "Don't bully me." ”

Sibeile hugged the bamboo basket in his arms, kissed her ear vigorously, and read her name over and over again: "Ji'er, Ji'er...... How can I give it, how can I give it? I can't let it go. ”

Very sleepy, his legs were very weak, and Bamboo Basket wanted to sleep like this, but he hugged himself too tightly, hindering her breathing, and Bamboo Basket pushed Four Belle outward, but the harder she pushed, the tighter he held it. Until she smothered in his arms and said, "I—I'm running out of breath." The embrace loosened slightly.

Zhu Zhen was so sleepy that he couldn't even open his eyes, and said indiscriminately: "I'm so sleepy, I want to sleep." ”

What else did Si Baylor say, she didn't hear it too clearly, and answered two sentences indiscriminately before she got to the bed, and the bamboo basket fell into a deep sleep.
