Chapter 25 The New Year
On the morning of the New Year, there were snowflakes floating in the sky, and when I looked at the ground in the courtyard in the distance, I could vaguely see the path that had been swept out.
Xin Ru was wobbed by the sound of firecrackers, and after dressing and washing, she came out of the courtyard.
She first went to the main courtyard to say hello to her parents, got two big red envelopes, and then hung lanterns with her two elder brothers...... and a series of activities, and then start preparing lunch.
And Yinzhen, who is far away in the capital, is not so leisurely and comfortable in the days of his brother, after all, he is in the palace, and even if he is a prince, he is always cautious.
Yin Zhen woke up early in the morning and went to Jingren Palace to give a New Year's gift to Eniang, then went to Yonghe Palace to give a gift to Concubine De, and finally went to Concubine Wen and other concubines to give a gift, and when this series of work was done, it was time for lunch.
The princes and princesses at lunch are to be used with their own concubines, and the emperor is used with the queen mother and the prince, and it can also be seen from here that the prince's status in Kangxi's heart, Kangxi's partiality, how can he not make the prince's other brothers jealous.
In Jingren Palace, Emperor Tong Guifei took her adopted son and daughter to dine together, and the scene was quite warm, but it was a little deserted due to the small number of people.
The New Year's lunch of Xinru's family is the same as in previous years, the family personally prepared the meals, the styles are diverse and delicious, and there is no rule of eating on the table of their family, and the family of five talks and laughs, warm and lively.
After lunch, Yinzhen chatted with E-Niang in Jingren Palace for a while, he knew that E-Niang had to deal with today's dinner, and the matter was trivial and complicated, so it didn't take long for him to leave and return to A-Ge's office.
When he returned to the elder brother's office, he personally checked the New Year's gift, after all, it was a gift to be presented to Huang Ama at today's dinner, but there was nothing wrong with it.
After inspecting the New Year's ceremony, he sent a reward to the people who served in the brother's house, and after these things were done, the hour was almost the same, and then he ordered Su Peisheng to let people bring a bowl of noodle soup, after all, most of the Chinese New Year's Eve meals in the palace were cold, and it was uncomfortable to eat on a cold day, and the New Year's banquet was the most accident-prone place, most people were listening to the six directions, who could really eat.
After eating noodles, he took Su Peisheng to find the prince, after all, he is now closer to the prince, and it is most suitable to enter the palace with the prince.
Xinru Ama is placed outside Jiangsu, because she is not in Beijing, so she does not have so many uncles and aunts or something, Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is lamb hot pot and dumplings they personally wrapped in the afternoon, simple and warm, the big winter makes people feel comfortable to eat, isn't it?
After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Xin Ru, as in previous years, slept on the way to observe the New Year, and then slept until dawn.
And Yinzhen in the palace is not as comfortable as Xin Ru, watching the open and secret battles between brothers all night, as well as the battles between concubines, of course, he himself also actively or passively participates in it, and the New Year's banquet in the palace is long and boring.
waited for Kangxi to finish the summary of the year, and then encouraged his son, praised the meritorious ministers of this year, and rewarded the courtiers who were pleasing to the eye......
By the time Kangxi announced that he could go back to the respective courtyards after the disbandment, Yinzhen's body and mind were already very tired, and he had to drag his tired body back to his brother's place to guard the year.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Xin Ru got up early in the morning, after all, there is a custom that you can't sleep lazy on the first day of the Lunar New Year, otherwise this year will make people lazy, after breakfast, Xin Ru began to go to the main courtyard. Learn housekeeping with Eniang.
Cheng Yu was released as an official, although the official position is relatively large, and there are many New Year's gifts from others, but there will be no less New Year's gifts from his own family, and Lan Rong has never left a handle on others.
Xin Ru followed Lan Rong today, mainly learning how to give gifts, what is particular about gift-giving, and what needs to be avoided.
Lan Rong said a lot, of course, she didn't expect that her daughter could learn it at once, and she could let her daughter practice her hands next year, after all, practice can train people.
Of course, Xin Ru began to learn housekeeping, this was the beginning of her hard life, what Lan Rong didn't tell her was that after the upbringing grandma she found for her today, she was going to report, Lan Rong decided to give her daughter a 'surprise' tomorrow, as for whether Xin Ru could be surprised, it is unknown.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Yinzhen in the palace received a 'gift' from Eniang.
Yin Zhen looked at the Song family, and he was indescribably bored in his heart, he remembered that this was the case in his last life, and the person who looked honest on the surface killed his second son Hongyun, and then blamed Fu Jin, Li hated Fu Jin for this, and then killed his sister-in-law Honghui, Fu Jin later knew the truth, and killed Hongpan to death.
The key is that he only knew the truth through the old man who served in the palace after his death, before that, he always thought that the Song family was a good one, after all, it was given by the emperor, and after he became the emperor, he was also very good to her, even if she did not have a strong family background and did not have grown children, he also gave her the identity of the lord of the first palace.
Song is also a pretend, he found that his son died too much in the backyard, and began to monitor the backyard with secret forces, but he found all the evidence that the Fujin Li family did, and he was not found out about Song's behavior.
Because the Li family still has a pair of children, he can't really kill him, and Fujin has to manage the backyard for him, not to mention that the palace of Prince Yong at that time was in the whirlpool of seizing the heir, and it was really not suitable to break out a scandal.
He had to help the two women in the mansion cover up the truth, and he had a secret conversation with Fu Jin, and since then the Li family has fallen out of favor.
It can be said that the actions of the Song family changed the pattern of the backyard of Prince Yong's mansion at that time.
In the face of such a scheming woman, Yinzhen definitely can't feel good in her heart, but after all, it was given by Eniang, so you can't really refuse it without a reason!
Anyway, it's just a decoration to take the meeting, not to mention that he really didn't want to come to meat so soon, after so many years of modern life, he also knows that knowing people too early is not good for his health, and it is not good for his children, and he has long passed the age of loving beauty.
Therefore, the Song family will definitely be an old virgin in this life.
In front of Emperor Tong's concubine, Yinzhen showed embarrassment, thanked Emperor Tong's concubine, and returned to the brother's office with the newly baked personnel palace maid.
Yinzhen took Song to the study.
"Here, what you have to do is to keep to yourself, you don't like people to make small moves in secret, and you don't like people to spread the news, no one can do it, you know?"
