Chapter 81—The Giving of Names (I)
September 13 of the 50th year of Xi, it is the 100-day banquet of the little brother of Prince Yong's mansion, big, especially the prince's mansion of the Qing Dynasty, the 100-day ceremony is even more complicated and cumbersome, in addition to the full moon wine and the "lock change ceremony", but also kneel to receive the will from the palace, it can be said that there is no leisure for a day. But on this day, Huizhu came to the spirit, at dawn, before the sky was clear, she woke up early, and the first thing she did when she opened her eyes was to tell Su Xin to prepare hot water, and she wanted to bathe.
Su Xin held a blue robe in the crook of his elbow, walked to the bed, waited for Huizhu to change into it, and said with a smile: "Master, the hot water has already been prepared, you can eat some food before going to bathe." Huizhu looked at Brother Yuan, who was sleeping soundly in the car, shook her head and said softly: "No, let's take a bath first." Su Xin, Brother Yuan should be about to wake up, let Mama Dong come over and watch. As he spoke, he got up, but as soon as his feet stuck to the ground, he was sore, but fortunately he was supported by Su Xin, so he was saved from falling to the ground, and couldn't help whispering: "Lie down in January, even your legs and feet are not yourself, and I will sit in this confinement if I lose." After hearing this, Su Xin's eyes darkened, remembering that Huizhu would never have a body anymore, and his heart tightened, but he didn't say anything, he just didn't know what to say, and helped Huizhu to go to the ear room to bathe.
Huizhu's bath is to enter an hour, and when she wipes her body, she returns to the main house with a dress, and just separates the curtain and walks to the door, she pauses. Xiao Luzi's eyes were sharp, and when he saw Huizhu, he hurriedly stepped forward, dusted off his arrow sleeves, bent his left knee forward, bent his right leg back, and played a thousand children in a regular manner. ”
This invitation to An was to let Yin listen to Huizhu can't, busy to the car, squatting An saluted: "Lord came here early, you only came back yesterday, but you rested." Yin stared at Huizhu for a while, then retracted his gaze and looked down at Brother Yuan in the car, and said lightly: "Get up." You look fine, and you're a little fatter. Huizhu answered, her eyes flickered over Yin's figure, and then she lowered her eyelids, and was speechless for a while.
Suddenly, Brother Yuan, who was playing alone in the car, cried and broke the silence of the room. Seeing this, Huizhu couldn't care about Yin's heavy face, stepped forward and took a look at Brother Yuan'er, and hurriedly instructed Mama Dong who was standing aside: "Brother Yuan'er has wet the bed, go and change the little mattress." After speaking, he picked up a clean cloth on the side, hugged Brother Yuan to the bed, and changed Brother Yuan'er's diaper.
Yin walked to the kang mat and sat down quietly looking at Huizhu who was changing the diaper for Brother Yuan, thoughtful. Half ringing, until Huizhu came over alone and called it rude, then asked, "Can you call the name of the breast." Huizhu said: "Back to the master, just call Brother Yuan." Yin frowned lightly and said, "That's it, in the afternoon, Huang Ama will give another name." After hearing this, Huizhu couldn't help but look at Yin in confusion, Emperor Kangxi, who has so many imperial grandsons, except for the children born to Yan and Fang Fu Jin, can occasionally have this honor, how can she have such an identity.
At this time, only Yin, Huizhu and the rest of the Yuan brothers in the car were already led out by Xiao Luzi and waited outside. Yin was tired of his eyes and Huizhu opened his mouth to explain: "During the hunting, the capital reported the news that you had given birth, and Emperor Ama saw that there was only one Hongshi in my house, and he also said that he would give the child a name. Speaking of this, after a pause, his voice was even colder: "I have already delivered a message to Fujin, and I will go to the Zongren Mansion in a few days to hand over the quota, and the subdivision of Fujin on your side should be able to be sent to the Ministry of Rites for registration a year ago." Huizhu didn't want Yinhui to say this suddenly, she was shocked, and her face showed it, and she blurted out a low voice: "Master......." ”
Yin looked straight at Huizhu, seeing that she was shocked and didn't seem to be cheating, and connected with the skillful diaper change for Brother Yuan'er just now, the two really satisfied him. In fact, although Yinxin belongs to Huizhu Fengfeng Fujin, he should be promoted after a year or two according to his usual style. It's just that during this trip to Rehe, Emperor Kangxi saw that he finally had another heir, and by chance learned that the person who gave birth to a child was Gege, who took care of him last year, so he signaled that he should be promoted to Huizhu as a side blessing.
For Huizhu to get the eye of Emperor Kangxi, Yin felt that there was nothing to remember, but Huizhu was able to give birth to a child did make him extremely satisfied, but he didn't plan to tell Huizhu about either, so he said: "The ancestral system stipulates that the side rooms of the prince, the prince, and the prince of the county, who have children, can be sealed as a side blessing." You were born in the draft and have children, so you should be. Huizhu raised her eyes to Shang Yin's cold eyes, suppressed the shock in her heart, avoided Yin's sight, and squatted and saluted: "Concubine Xie Ye carries love." Yin's jaw "grace" sounded, and then passed.
For a while. Xiao Luzi said outside: "Master." Breakfast is ready. But now it's on the table. Yin was speechless. Nodding slightly at Huizhu. Huizhu saw it. Instantaneous. Hurry to the curtain. Greeted Xiao Luzi and set the meal. Later, he personally served Yin's meal. :i washed. Until Yin left and went to Geng's place. Only then did I get idle. Begin to dress up. Subsequently. The courtyard of Huizhu is busy. Huizhu didn't think about the fact that she was going to be promoted to the side blessing of Jin
It's to cheer up the spirits. Prepare for what's next.
Today is a big day. Huizhu also dressed up a little bit of makeup. The head is combed with a fork. There is an inch of peony embroidered on the bun to be wide and flat. Both ends of Bian Fang'er are exposed. and flattened the left end of the ground axis hole hanging a bunch of shoulder-length bead spikes. On the right, there is a large double coin head flower with gold inlaid rice beads. Because of the ancestral regulations. He had children and concubines. At the time of the full moon and the anniversary of the heir. You can wear a dark red auspicious dress. But Huizhu abandoned the red clothes. He also wore an orange satin gold tuanhua cheongsam. On the shirt is a small stand collar. Tie the knot with gold. Portal. Left and right openings. The whole body is embroidered with gold nails, embroidered with bats and lotus flowers. Floral embroidery on the sleeves. The hem of the skirt is embroidered with gold, eight treasures of standing water, lotus flowers, and butterflies. Huizhu's dress is magnificent. Extremely joyful. Correct. The robe is buttoned because the main entrance is open. It also made Huizhu appear festive but solemn. It's a bit of a sense of formality.
Huizhu is cleaning up and finishing the way. There was a little girl sent by the Ulanala clan to come to the ceremony. It's time to go to the main courtyard. So. Huizhu carried Su Xin and Moon Lotus. and holding the round brother and Mama Dong. The group headed towards the main courtyard.
At this time. The main courtyard is already bustling. Everywhere is decorated with red silk. It's not festive. Don't wait for Huizhu to walk in. And seven or eight maids and servants came forward to say goodbye. Huizhu responded with a smile. Spare the crowd. You can see the gate of the main courtyard, the inner three gates, the inner instrument gate, and the inner plug gate. Until the main hall. The main entrance is wide open. A long vermilion carpet is laid on both sides of the stairs. The brocade curtain hangs high at the eaves of the corridor. It's like the New Year. Forthwith. Huizhu was about to go inside. Eunuchs stood at each gate. He raised his voice. One by one shouted, "Niu Hulu Gege has arrived." Little Brother arrived. ”
Enter the main hall. I saw the brocade mattress embroidered screen in the hall. To sit in two rows down. A carved throne of red sandalwood. The whole house has a new look. And everyone in the room is not far behind. All of them are brocade clothes. A scene of flowers. Huizhu takes in everything in front of her. I wondered a little. It's just a 100-day banquet in the prince's mansion. It's so important. Correct. Hye-joo didn't expect it to be. Because of the scarcity of heirs. This concubine is not ordinary. And these days, Yin has won the favor of Emperor Kangxi again. Caused by the direction of the wind. The nobles in the capital are all here if they can come. Even if you don't come to the land. It was also a congratulatory gift.
Huizhu knew that the person sitting on the top seat here was not an ordinary person, and she didn't think too much, so she went straight to the middle of the room, squatted and saluted: "Concubine Niu Hulu invites Fujin Da'an, and the two side Fujin Da'an." Wulanala smiled and said, "Sister Niu Hulu is here, yo, and the little brother of our house is also here, come and hug me." Li Shi answered: "Fu Jin, this hasn't been introduced to Niu Hulu's sister yet, you should introduce it first, bring the little elder brother to me, and let my third elder brother and Da Gege also see their younger brother." After Li finished speaking, the noble lady next to him spoke again, and then praised a few words of macro time and Da Gege.
The Ulanala clan pretended to be annoyed, and said: "The master only returned to the house yesterday, and today's 100-day banquet is simply organized, and it is also a few > who usually come and go. As he spoke, he introduced Huizhu to the people who came, namely the five Fujin and one side Fujin, the thirteenth Fujin and one side Fujin, the fourteenth Fujin and several princely princes of the Fujin, the wives and daughters-in-law of Belle Fujin and Long Keduo. In this way, Huizhu gave them a salute, and before they could say a few words, Gao Fu came to say that it was the auspicious time to change the lock ceremony.
Huizhu followed the Wulanala clan and others to the gate of the house, and Yin, who was already standing at the gate, saw the person who came, and ordered the invited shaman to take the bow and arrow hanging outside the door and tie it to the rope of the descendants when Yuan Ge'er was born. Then they followed the shaman to a courtyard and reached the west wall of the shrine dedicated to Mother Buddha's mother, where the shaman put the recovered bow and arrow into the pouch of the descendants. Then, when he prayed for blessings to Buddha's mother, he pulled the rope of his offspring to the willow tree in the courtyard, and the shaman sprinkled water on Yuan'er with willow branches to drive away evil spirits. Finally, the shaman put the multicolored threads on the rope of the descendants on the body of the round brother.
After this custom, the custom of the 100-day banquet is safe and sound. Huizhu hurriedly took the round brother who was dressed in red and green and wore a small tiger on his head from the shaman Sama, and checked it for a while. Seeing that Brother Yuan was still in good spirits, a pair of black eyes were wide open, looking at the many people around him curiously, she was happy, her heart was also at ease, so she handed Brother Yuan to Mama Dong, and she was busy keeping up with the pace of everyone, and walked to the main hall of the first courtyard together, ready for the banquet.
The main hall has already prepared a seat, and as soon as everyone enters the hall, they will be men and women, and they will sit according to their status.
As soon as this party sat down to greet and say, a little eunuch came over and said that the reward of the master in the palace had arrived. Everyone got up again and knelt down at the gate of the ceremony, and thanked the palace for their reward. However, as soon as this reward was finished, another eunuch came and shouted: "The holy decree has arrived, and the fourth prince, Prince Yong, kneels to receive the holy decree." ”
