Chapter 1204: Chinese New Year's Eve
Qin Yining had already washed at this time, and changed into a half-new plain brocade collared gown, and his long half-dried hair was scattered, shining in the orange light. In addition to the fact that his eyes were still slightly red and swollen, he couldn't see the sadness just now.
But even so, even those who have followed her all year round know her sadness.
Bingtang and Jiyun were very anxious: "We don't want to get married, didn't we say before, we will stay with you in the future." ”
"yes, what's the good of getting married?"
"What stupid things are you talking about?" Qin Yining took their hands, "Of course I welcome you to follow me, and when you get married, you can still come to the palace to see me often, and this will not delay our reunion." Do you still want to be a palace maid for the rest of your life? ”
"What's so bad about being a palace maid?"
Qin Yining's plain white hand stroked the broken hair of Jiyun's sideburns, "Okay, don't be impulsive, don't say stupid things, people always have to move forward and look forward in this life." A stage is going to pass, even if you are reluctant, but the next stage will come, you are all good girls, now that I and the prince have the ability, I will give you a good home, in the future, you will live your own little life with Hemeimei, isn't it better than being a palace maid by my side? ”
"But...... In this deep palace, where is there anyone who can be intimate? Rock Candy sniffed and touched a handful of tears.
Qin Yining sighed helplessly, "You have to adapt." After you get married, you will also live a life with your own family. You have to make your own decisions about the big and small affairs in the house, and you have to learn to adapt to those days. Fortunately, with the emperor and me, Huzi and Tang Xiu didn't dare to bully you secretly. ”
Jiyun lowered his head and said, "We have your support, but what about you?" ”
Qin Yining smiled and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "Me? Naturally, the emperor came to support him. The days are still long, and the roads are all stepped on by people, where is there any hurdle that cannot be passed? Don't worry about me, do you really want to be an old girl by my side? Besides, the emperor's will has been issued, let you choose a day to get married, can the holy decree be resisted? ”
Bingtang and Jiyun also know these truths, but their hearts are empty, and they are about to enter another life, they are confused and reluctant.
Qin Yining took the hands of the two of them and shook them left and right: "Okay, you can rest assured, I asked someone to prepare a house and a rich dowry for you, and the maidservants to marry will also be selected for you." In the future, with my backing, the palace is your maiden home, you just have to go forward boldly and confidently, the road ahead is still long, and the days will only be better, don't be afraid, you know. ”
Knowing that this is an unchangeable fact, even if Jiyun and Bingtang are reluctant to Qin Yining, they can only thank them and retreat with tears.
As soon as the two of them went out, they saw Xiao Xiao standing in front of them, and the palace people around him stood silently one by one, and they didn't know how long he had been waiting in front of the door.
The two hurriedly saluted the owl: "See the emperor." ”
Xiao Xiao waved his hand, first stretched his neck to look into the room, and then asked the two in a low voice: "How is your master feeling now?" ”
"It's sad." Bingtang said in a low voice, "It's just that the queen is a strong person, and her sadness can usually be digested by herself." ”
Xiao Xiao's heart tugged. I remembered what I had just heard from my two children. The Yao family is still unscrupulous in front of the child, and I am afraid that it is even more excessive in front of Qin Yining, I am afraid that what he knows is only a part, and Qin Yining has endured many grievances behind his back.
"Go down."
Xiao Xiao couldn't wait, walked into the hall quickly, waved off the palace people who were going to come forward to serve, and quickly entered the dormitory.
Qin Yining heard the footsteps coming out, and when he saw that Xiao Xiao was anxious, he asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" ”
Her eyes were still swollen, and when she laughed, the lying silkworm became more obvious, and her smile was even more pitiful.
Xiao Xiao took her hand and sat down side by side on the warm kang near the window, hugged her and asked in a low voice, "Are you in a better mood?" ”
"Much better. I've already thought about it. Qin Yining smiled, his cheeks rubbed in his arms, like a lazy cat, "Father and mother have their own ideas, and there is nothing wrong with them wanting to go to Xiyue, it's just a big deal that I will see them more in the future." Brother Zhao'er's ...... kid"
Qin Yining's voice choked, suppressed his sadness, and said helplessly: "When the child grows up, he will always leave me." For now, he just made a choice in advance. We are parents, not to confine our children to our side, but to think about how to make them live freely. Brother Zhao'er must have a reason to make such a decision today at such a young age, as long as he was not forced to do so. ”
"You've figured it out." Xiao Xiao sighed, "Don't worry, Brother Zhao'er may grow up better if he follows his father-in-law." In the future, we will have more reunions. It's not like you can't come out forever when you enter the setting moon. ”
Having said that, it will not be easy to see each other in the future.
Qin Yining knew it in his heart, but he didn't dwell on the matter, and after nodding his head, he reported the dowry and industry list he had prepared for the three of Bingtang, Jiyun and Lian Xiaocongee to Xiao Xiao.
Seeing that she was in good spirits, Xiao Xiao also increased some as appropriate, and said with a smile: "You, the master, are so generous to them, I don't want to be too harsh, go back and give Tang Xiu, Huzi and Fang Hailing some more rewards, so as not to be compared." ”
Both laughed.
Seeing that the New Year is approaching, this is the first New Year of Daxin, and the palace is full of lights and preparations everywhere, the first year of the new emperor's accession to the throne, the New Year is equally important, and it cannot be sloppy.
Qin Yining rarely hid and was idle, so he handed everything over to the Internal Affairs Office to prepare, except for getting up in the morning to greet the Queen Mother, the rest of the time he took the children to accompany Qin Huaiyuan and his party. There is less and less time to get together, and after the year, Bingtang and Jiyun became relatives, and Qin Huaiyuan was ready to set off. Qin Yining cherished the current day more and more.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, the capital is free of curfew.
Thousands of lights are lit, red lights are hung high, and the tall palace wall is reflected in the colorful fireworks in the rising sky. Every household is keeping the New Year, firecrackers are crackling, and the air is filled with fireworks.
The adults were jubilant and the children were jubilant.
Brother Zhao, Brother Han, and Brother Yan clapped their hands in the courtyard of Kunning Palace, cheering and jumping at the same time. Some young palace maids and little chamberlains also followed the master, leaning their necks and looking at the bright flowers blooming in the sky.
Qin Yining withdrew his gaze looking out of the window, and as soon as he turned around, he saw Qiu Feishan walking over with a smile.
"The Queen." Qiu Feishan gave a salute.
"Hugh is going to do that." Qin Yining hurriedly stretched out his hand to support him, and said with a smile: "I entered the palace today to keep the New Year, and I don't know if you like it or not." ”
"I like it." Qiu Feishan hesitated for a moment, but still said, "After Fang Hailing and Miss Lian get married, our family is also going to leave." We want to go back to Tianji Valley together. ”
Qin Yining was no longer so surprised when he heard about the separation at this time.
After all, Mu Jinghu also has his own life, and now that he has become a thing, Mu Jinghu has no reason to follow him as a guard.
Qin Yining nodded, but he was still a little suspicious about Qiu Feishan's matter, "Do you really plan to live in seclusion with Mu Gongzi in the future?" ”
