Chapter 172: Winter

Chapter 172: Winter

During the Chinese New Year, the fifth princess also returned to the palace-

It's a given.

The emperor's family also has to celebrate the New Year, and like ordinary people, they always have a family reunion during the New Year.

But the fifth princess didn't look happy, and she didn't return to the palace from Linghuaguan until she was twenty-eight years old.

Xiao Dong was a little puzzled at first, Concubine Ming Guifei has not been in good health since she fell seriously ill that year, and now she is like an invisible person in the palace.

I have the impression that the relationship between the fifth princess and the Ming Guifei is very close, at least much better than the relationship between the concubine and the sixth princess. Xiao Dong saw the two mothers and daughters lingering in the imperial pavilion where the peony flowers were in full bloom, with the same delicate smiles, holding a butterfly fan in their hands, and the beauty on the fan was also eclipsed in front of the mother and daughter.

Xiao Dong was very impressed.

She felt very envious at that time.

King An treats her very well, very well. But she still wanted to know, if her mother Yao Qingyuan was still alive, would they be as close as Ming Guifei and the fifth princess's mother and daughter?

But since Mr. Fifth Princess fell ill with sores that year, and Concubine Ming fell ill again, the relationship between the two seems to be no longer what it used to be. Later, the five princesses got married and lost their husbands, and Ming Guifei rarely seemed to appear. Even the fifth princess left Lin Township Houfu and returned to the palace, but she also lived in Yilan Palace, and she didn't see her get close to Concubine Ming.

Xiao Dong didn't know what happened between the mother and daughter to make them so indifferent to each other.

In her mind, how can there be an overnight feud between parents and children? What is there that cannot be forgiven?

When I got up early that morning, Xiaodong dressed up his son. Fortunately, her son is not like her and Zhao Lu when they were children, they need to wear layers of dresses, and they are not likely to walk. However, if Zhao Lu has a son in the future, then the child, as the son of the county king, is afraid that he will also have a hard time.

I usually don't think that when the New Year is over, everyone else is dragging their families and having fun, but only the fifth princess, sitting there alone, seems extremely incongruous. She is also very plain in her dress. Others don't know whether they think she has lost power, or they think that she is widowed, and no one has come to talk to her.

Xiao Dong was busy with Ah Da here, and he couldn't take care of it for a while. The little guy rarely enters the palace, and everything is fresh, and in a blink of an eye, he touched the dust from nowhere and dragged it around on the ground.

Xiao Dong asked strangely, "Where did this come from?" ”

Ah Da smiled innocently: "Maomao...... Mao Mao ......"

"yes, I know it's Maomao."

Xiao Dong wanted to bring the dust over, but Ah Da didn't give it, but pointed to a plate of cakes on the table: "Mother, cakes." ”

"You've got to say, 'I want to eat cake.'"

Who says children don't have hearts? At such a young age, he knew how to take care of him.

He had just drunk the fruit tea given by the Queen Mother, and he could still eat the cake.

It's just to divert Xiaodong's attention and prevent her from taking the dust away.

This kind of childlike little cunning, which does not need to be taught, seems to be born with it.

"It's not like I ......," Xiao Dong said to himself.

She was an honest child in her last life and in this life, and she never moved if she didn't say anything about it. Ah Da's temper has nothing to say, he must be like Qin Lie.

Well, definitely.

No matter how good a couple is, when it comes to children, it is inevitable that this is the case.

The good places are all like me, and the bad places are all like you, because you have inherited badly.

A little eunuch hurried over, and when he saw the dust, his eyes lit up.

Xiao Dong was not very embarrassed, and the little eunuch came over to salute and said, "County Lord, this ......"

Xiao Dong hurriedly said: "I don't know how he touched and played, so I'll pay you back." ”

The little eunuch was even more embarrassed than her, and she was sweating in a hurry on a cold day: "Actually...... If it's something else, I'll play with Childe. This is Gonggong Li's, his old man turned his head and disappeared this ......"

Oh, it's actually the first eunuch in the harem, and it's strange that the dust is wrapped around it. This is called low-key luxury, and those who know it know that it is rarer than gold wire, and you can't buy it with money. Those who don't know the goods should only be brown linen silk.

King An also had a mandarin duck bottle with a vine entwined with Qiange, and he also made a dowry for Xiaodong at that time. Take it out in the small winter and insert two white reed flowers or a sprig of cattail grass. When Wang An saw it, he didn't feel that his daughter had thrown things in vain, but praised: "This bottle should be used like this, no matter what other flowers are inserted, it will look frivolous." ”

Xiao Dong said: "That's because my father has always been elegant and calm, and my daughter has been edified." ”

Xiao Dong replaced the dust with a cake and handed it to the little eunuch to ask him to go on an errand.

The sixth princess also brought her son, and the two children quickly played together. There are also the sons of the three princes, the two of them are older, but they have the same temper - they are all only sons, so it goes without saying that their tempers. After a while, the three of them were pulling and pulling up. The sixth princess's son has a temper like her, and he explodes at one point, and he doesn't know how to make people at all. Ah Da is in the palace, although he is not cultivated as a gentleman, but basically everything is obedient. Needless to say, Zhao Jue, the son of the third prince.

- Although Xiao Dong has always felt that the word is ...... Of course, it's not bad, it's just not suitable to be the name of the prince.

But this name was given by the emperor to his grandson, who dares to say a word?

Xiao Dong secretly speculated, and he didn't know what this uncle was thinking, could it be that he believed in Buddhism? Could it be that he has been rich and noble for decades and suddenly realized? Or was it the days his grandson was born, he was reading Buddhist scriptures?

Who knows.

is still more reliable than his own father, and he will not give his grandson a name that is like going to the temple to eat tofu.

But a few years later, Xiao Dong thought that there was probably some kind of induction in the dark that made the emperor marry his eldest grandson with such a name.

When this child falls to the ground, it is doomed to his future end.

But who could have predicted the future?

Seeing the three children twisted together, the people below hurriedly went over to pull them, but Xiao Dong and the sixth princess were not in a hurry at all, and the three princesses also watched with a smile.

"Let them fight, what is it for a boy to fight." The sixth princess said: "It's not like being a girl." ”

Although she said so, how dare the people below let the little masters tear up like this? What should I do if I scratch it? What should I do if it breaks?

Xiaodong is not worried, the three children are dressed like cotton mounds, and even if they fall to the ground, they will not hurt. However, her family is smaller than those two, and she suffers from the fight.

Well, when you go back, it is necessary to let your child father or his uncle teach him how to make a black hand without a trace in a fight. According to Xiao Dong's observation over the years, when Zhao Lu and Qin Lie were studying in Jixian Hall, this kind of thing must have been done.

The fifth princess stood by with a smile and watched, although she hid it well, there was still a kind of pity and sadness in her eyes.

Sensing Xiao Dong's gaze, the fifth princess turned her head and smiled at her.

The joy in Xiao Dong's heart gradually precipitated, and she also smiled back: "Fifth sister." ”

This year is the last of Xiaodong's end, a winter of reunion and worry-free.
