Chapter 3 Year Old
Naturally, you can't ask more about the things that the master commands, and you can't ask more when you hear the words in your ears.
Ning Shu was dealing with his troubles, while the Empress Dowager Tang Du returned to the palace on this day of the New Year.
As soon as I returned to the palace, I heard about Ning Ningjin's imperial concubine and July's princess, and the queen thought that the empress dowager would be able to make decisions for herself after returning to the palace, but she didn't even mention it.
On the contrary, I was completely conquered by the cute and amusing July, and I would be upset if I didn't see her every day!
The queen's heart has been completely filled with hatred and jealousy, and she can't see anyone's goodness, and her heart shows a kind of perversion.
The whole New Year was spent in laughter, and spring was coming, and everyone was full of warmth.
More than half a year has passed, and Emperor Ningjia's concubine has become more and more favored, and the queen's bleakness has become more and more bleak, and even the queen's prince Duxi and the eldest princess Duzi are more and more disliked by Duiyu.
After a few cicadas chirping and a few ponds of lotus flowers in the hot summer, the curtain quietly retreated.
In the blink of an eye, the seventh day of the seventh month of July arrived, and on the day of the first birthday of July, the Empress Dowager's big sentence overwhelmed the entire palace, but it was still carried out in an orderly manner.
In the early morning of the seventh day of the seventh month of the tenth year of Yonghe, July opened her round eyes, in fact, as an adult from the twenty-first century, she could already speak, but in order not to let others think she was a monster, she held back and didn't speak.
Today is her first birthday, she has been in this world for a full year, she is used to the love of her parents, although the deep palace is full of intrigue and calculation, but her mother has protected her very well, and has never let her come into contact with those filthy, she has regarded Twilight and Ning Ning as her own parents, and has completely integrated into this world.
"Daddy, Daddy!" The soft and glutinous voice came from the small bed in the warm pavilion.
Twilight didn't know if she was particularly sensitive to July's voice, or if she hadn't slept well, so she got up from the couch and hurried to July's bed.
Hearing July crying and calling "Dad", his mood was as surging and excited as the rising tide of the sea, and he hugged July's fierce kiss.
July's little arms hugged Twilight's neck tightly, her little head rubbed against his shoulders, and she said in a sweet voice, "Daddy, I haven't dressed yet, my mother said I'm going to wear it beautifully today." ”
"Of course, we are a little birthday star in July today, and Daddy will call someone to change your clothes, okay?" Twilight said by pinching July's red little face.
After handing over July to Shen Feng, he saw that Ning Ning had already gotten up and dressed neatly, so he stepped forward and said, "Our little July can talk, Ah Ning, do you know what it is?" ”
Looking at Twilight's arrogant and smug little expression, Ning Ning said, "Seeing that Your Majesty is so happy, that must be related to Your Majesty, right!" ”
Twilight Yu pulled Ning Ning over and hugged her to sit on the soft couch and nodded her nose and said, "It's so smart, we will call our father and mother in July, this is worth celebrating!" ”
Hearing that the daughter she gave birth to desperately could call people and speak, Ning Ning's tears immediately couldn't hold back the uproar, although Twilight Yu persuaded her, but it still didn't work.
After getting dressed, July heard Ning Ning's cry outside the curtain, and ran in crookedly by lifting the curtain, and at first glance, he was not very skilled, and shouted in a milky voice while running: "Mother, mother, why are you crying?" The more he spoke, the more he cried.
Ning Ning looked at July running in from outside and stumbling, she was distressed, and immediately stood up and ran forward to hug July and said, "July, don't be so anxious and irritable in the future, if you fall, your mother will be distressed to death." ”
Ning Ning knew that her body, since the last time she was born in July, it was impossible for her to have any more children, so July was her life.
Seeing that she was crying while holding her, she knew that she was really scared of her mother, so she quickly stretched out her little hand to wipe the corners of Ning Ning's eyes and said, "Mother, if you don't cry, you won't do it again after July." After saying that, he buried his little head at the base of his neck.
After tossing and turning for a while, it was time for Chen, and Dui Yu and Ning Ning took them to Jingkang Palace and kowtowed to the Empress Dowager before going to Qinglangtai.
Today, July wore a red Shu brocade embroidered with a wishful knot and a small unicorn, and the whole little face was white and red, and it was very cute.
At the banquet, July first held a Zhou ceremony, looking at the people around him who were looking at him intently, July was at a loss, the important thing was that he hadn't played this in his previous life, and he listened to his father who had been talking to him: July, take that, take this, she was confused.
In the end, she thought that the more she could take, the better, so there appeared a little girl with a mountain of things in front of her, but there were other things in her hands, including some pens, toys, food, abacus, rouge gouache, and so on.
The queen looked at a large number of things in front of July, and was very disdainful of this, so she said: "We are really smart in July, and we don't forget to put good things in our arms when we see them!" ”
The words were full of July's childish spirit, and Ning Ning didn't care about her, only said: "The emperor has to teach us July every night, and I don't know what the father and daughter said last night!" ”
July's first birthday ceremony, with the Empress Dowager's orders, naturally can't be too bad, otherwise wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the Empress Dowager?
The royal relatives and meritorious families all gathered together, for the seventh birthday, July was already able to move around on his own, naturally unwilling to nest in Ning Ning's arms, struggling to get off the ground, and a group of two or three-year-old children frolicking and playing.
After being a child for a year, July felt that all his actions were the same as those of a child, and even his soul was gradually assimilated.
Just when the banquet was about to end, the arrival of the envoys of the Jin State pushed the atmosphere to *, there has never been a precedent in history for a neighboring country to send envoys to a princess to congratulate her on her birthday, let alone a princess.
Qi Chu, the envoy of the State of Jin, bowed down and handed over the gift slip and said: "Qi Chu, the envoy of the State of Jin, wishes Princess Xiaoyang good health, joy and peace. ”
Yuan Zhi stepped forward to take the gift list, and Du Yu smiled and said, "Emperor Jin really has a heart, Lord Qi has worked hard!" ”
Qi Chu arched his hand and retreated to the side, Qing Yao stepped forward and knelt in front of Queen Ning and Ning Ning with the gift box and said: "Slave maid Qing Yao see the queen mother and the imperial concubine, and the slave maid came to congratulate Princess Xiaoyang on her birthday on the order of Concubine Jing. ”
Ning Ning looked at the familiar and strange person in front of her, didn't know how to talk about it, and asked without hesitation: "Third sister, is she okay?" ”
This banquet ended after Qing Yao's appearance, followed by a big gathering of the Ning family, and the venue was naturally the queen's Fengling Palace.
Qing Yao and Qi Chu stayed in the Tang Dynasty for four days before hurriedly returning to the Jin Kingdom, leaving with several large carriages of return gifts and specialties.
The days passed like this, until the news of Concubine Xian's pregnancy broke the long-dormant harem, although this news did not take away Ning Ning's favor, but it still more or less took away Twilight's attention.
Concubine Xian has been in the harem for many years, and she does not love Twilight, but admires King Xuan, who wanted to rebel back then.
Since the last time she was born in July, Ning Ning's body has not been as good as before, and she has left residual poison in her body, I am afraid that she will not be able to accompany July to grow up, and now she has a lot of things to do, and she has to arrange everything for July, and she has no more energy to "care" about those troubles.
In the winter of the tenth year of Yonghe, Ning Ning finally knew that his time was running out after coughing up a ball of blood, and he was very flustered.
Since that day, Ning Ning has often sent July to Jingkang Palace to accompany the Empress Dowager, and July has long found that Ning Ning is a little different, but I don't know what the problem is.
In the spring of the following year, Concubine Xian also gave birth to a little princess, and although Twilight Yu was happy, she was not as panicked as Ning Ning was born in July.
When the moon was full, Twilight Yu named the newborn little girl Twilight, the title was clear, and the full moon ceremony was not a big deal, but she sent someone to send some gifts, Concubine Xian was so angry that she gritted her teeth, although she didn't love Twilight, but she couldn't bear it when it was about her daughter, and she couldn't watch her daughter be born inferior.
In fact, there are not many heirs of Dusk Yu, only four sons and four daughters, among which the eldest son and eldest daughter of Empress Ning, the second prince and third prince of Concubine Xian, and the princess of Qing who is born now, the four princes of Zhaomei's life and the concubine Ning Ning of Ningjia, of course, his favorite and favorite is July.
Concubine Xian hated Twilight Yu to death because of her daughter's title, and at the same time resented Ning Ning.
Concubine Xian called her personal palace maid Cai Lan, whispered softly in her ear for a moment, Cai Lan nodded and retreated, the corners of Concubine Xian's mouth rose with a hint of a light smile.
After Cai Lan went out, sneakily went to the rockery cave next to the Royal Garden, after a while, a panicked figure flashed into the cave after looking around, and saw Cai Lan standing in the distance facing himself with a bright smile, his heart is like thousands of ants are biting wildly, he is not a normal person, Cai Lan can still be so natural and cheerful to him, it is really no regrets in this life.
Cai Lan could see that the man in front of him was deeply in love with her, for the sake of Concubine Xian's explanation, she desperately endured the disgust and contempt, and kept talking softly in his ear, at first the man was slightly embarrassed, but he couldn't stand Cai Lan's hard work in front of him to show weakness, which aroused his desire to protect.
After Cai Lan left, he saw the man go back to the imperial dining room.
In July, she either went to the Heart Cultivation Palace or Jingkang Palace every day, but she was suffocated, and as an adult, she was really embarrassed to sell cuteness every day to please others.
Because July has been in the palace for a long time, he is clamoring to go out of the palace to play, so he is coquettish to Twilight, and he gets his wish.
On the day of July's departure from the palace, Twilight sent the strongest secret guard around her to protect her, and July was bouncing on the street, and it was strange to see anything, and she had never seen these antique things in modern times, so she naturally thought it was fun.
