Chapter 221: The First Year

The warm room seemed to be depressed with a different kind of stuffiness, which made Huizhu open her mouth but didn't make a sound. However, under Yinzhen's cold gaze, his senses became clear and clear, and he seemed to be able to see how the candle flame that burst out of the sound behind him was beating so excitedly, and he seemed to be able to hear the whistling sound of the wind outside the inner hall, the sound of snowflakes falling to the ground, and the nervous heartbeat of the palace people......

Yin Zhen approached Huizhu silently, and the figure that was getting closer and closer made Huizhu can't help but lean back and retreat, and the psychic senses also disappeared under the indifferent face in front of her. Unexpectedly, she remembered the night when Emperor Kangxi died, Yinzhen abandoned his own children and disregarded the coldness, and the cruelty of disposing of a few lives at will.

Yinyin lowered her eyes, she didn't know what she remembered, her thick eyebrows leaned slightly on her expressionless face, her thin lips opened and closed, and her mocking words came out of her mouth: "What are you afraid of?" You're not a new concubine, you've been by my side for many years, what are you afraid of? Or are you resentful in your heart, are you the last one I set foot in Jingren Palace? So much so that you ...... How the mind space thinks! When the last sentence fell, Yinzhen's cold deep pupils suddenly swirled into a shocking wave, and the yin owl became deep.

Huizhu seemed to be simmered by the palm of her chest, looked down a few times, was shocked, hurriedly turned to the side, skipped Yinzhen's last question, adjusted her mood, and said slowly: "When the concubine learned that Junxian was accused of alcoholism and unfilial piety, she was shocked and angry, and later remembered that Junxian was just a nobody, how could he suddenly be noticed by many parties?" This is only because of the concubines. I remember that the concubines were also anxious to save Junxian at that time, but now the concubines in the Forbidden City are isolated and helpless, and they will get lost if they walk alone, so how can they save Junxian. Then, the concubine thought of the emperor, and even sent Xiao Ranzi to ask the emperor's whereabouts...... "When it came to Xiao Ranzi, Hui Zhu suddenly stopped, not knowing whether to continue talking."

Just as Huizhu was cross-fertizing, a fine light crossed Yinzhen's eyes, and his voice was a little harder: "What about now?" What are you going to do? Is it a prayer? Huizhu's back stiffened suddenly, gritted her teeth, closed her eyes and vetoed: "No, the concubine doesn't want to ask the emperor, and she doesn't want to ask the emperor." This matter is not something that the concubine can manage, even if Hongli can manage the concubine, he can't manage the concubine, as for Junxian, just be sorry for him as a concubine.

How to deal with it at this time, how to do it. ”

Huizhu finished speaking with difficulty, but a trace of guilt oozed in her heart, and when Yinzhen gave her the opportunity to save Junxian, she chose to give up. In doing so, it can be said that she is gambling, betting on Yinzhen's temperament, and gambling on Yinzhen's contradictions with Yinzhen, so that Yinzhen protects Junxian. But she also moved, she still had another hidden thought in her heart, she didn't want Yinzhen to be embarrassed, she didn't want Yinzhen to be embarrassed when the throne was not secure, and she didn't want to attach to Yinzhen and beg him. Even if her survival was originally dependent on Yinzhen, she still stubbornly didn't want to admit it - now, if she wants to survive, she can only rely on clinging to Yinzhen, like a silk flower.

Huizhu hung her head in frustration, she felt that her mind was a mess, so she had to shake off the mixed thoughts at a loss, and gradually, she seemed to be able to understand the direction, and she understood her expectations. I remember that at the beginning, her hope was to survive, to survive in the prince's mansion, where the rules were as big as the sky, so that she could live as comfortably as possible; And she still wants to survive now, live in the harem room as she wishes, and let her pair of children survive safely, and the rich and worry-free existence of Niu Hulu Mansion

Yin Chen heard the helplessness in Huizhu's words, but he was surprised by Huizhu's confession in his heart, looking at Huizhu's somewhat pale face under the dim light, he lightly "en" and said: "Shun knows, tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, so let's have a good New Year." As he spoke, Ning Ran's gaze was fixed on the seemingly indescribable distance, and he sighed in a low voice: "Tomorrow has passed, and it is finally the first year, and another new era is opened."

Huizhu couldn't hear the words whispered behind Yinzhen, until she paid attention

The voice of the big shrill voice has sounded: "The emperor is in the palace of nourishing the heart." If so, she was only busy with her mind and knelt to see Yinsu leave.

Returning to the inner hall, Su Xin saw that Huizhu's spirit was a little trance, and did not say much, and said softly, "Tomorrow Chinese New Year's Eve, the master will sleep well earlier", so he took hot water, carefully waited for Huizhu to wash and sleep, and collected the quilt, and then lightly put down the curtain and went out.

When the sound of squirming disappeared, Huizhu pulled her eyelids in a daze, and the meaningless light and slow word "waiting" in her mouth also disappeared·····

The next day, when it was still dawning, Huizhu had woken up in a noisy sound, freshened up, went out of the bedroom, and as soon as she stepped out of the main hall to see, she heard Xiao Ranzi suddenly shout: "The master is 'stepping on the year'." Immediately, the surrounding palace people stopped their movements, saluted and said in unison: "Congratulations to Niangniang for stepping on the New Year, and the coming year will definitely rise step by step." ”

The sound of thunder was heard by Huizhu who was conscious, looked down at the sesame straw and other things under his feet, shook his head and smiled, sprinkled sesame straw in front of the gate, etc., and walked on it, which is called "stepping on the year", that is, taking the auspiciousness of "step high", and containing the meaning of the old year. It also means that it is good, and looking at the joy of the New Year on everyone's body, I can't help but feel in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Reward it, Suxin will reward a 'Ruyi' bag for a while." After that, on Xiao Ranzi's arm, a group of six people walked towards Chonghua Palace.

At this time, the genius Ma Ma lit up, Chonghua Palace was already full of people, and Ulana led the palace concubines to laugh. When Huizhu came here, she also laughed and chatted together. During this period, Li was extremely enthusiastic about her, and Huizhu secretly pursed her lips, but she also smiled back and dealt with the past politely.

At the dawn of the day, Yinzhen came in the emperor's court clothes, sat on the throne with the Wulanala clan, and shared breakfast with the palace concubines. Huizhu sat under the Wulanala clan, squinted slightly and slipped around the newly dressed people at the long palace table, and ate the Lala (yellow rice), dumplings, rice cakes and other foods in front of her in a dignified manner.

After breakfast, Yin Chen laughed with everyone and left, but these few words alone led the palace concubines to drink enough vinegar on Chinese New Year's Eve. There is no other reason, that is, Yin Zhen does not squint, and ignores all the palace concubines who are like flowers, and only asks Nian's body if he is okay, and then leaves to the Palace of Nourishing Heart.

Later, in the afternoon, there should have been a state banquet and a family banquet, but not long after Yinzhen ascended the throne, Emperor Kangxi died at the beginning, and Concubine De refused to attend the banquet on the grounds of discomfort. As a result, the banquet was much quieter than the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet when the Kangxi Emperor was alive, and the family banquet was canceled, leaving only the state banquet.

However, the state banquet of the Qianqing Palace had the Mongolian princes and hundreds of civil and military officials coming, and it was also a grand scene. Performing swallow ceremony, playing music, entering tea, entering the jue, wine, eating, music and dance, acrobatics, hundred operas, banquets and other ceremonies are not missed. Especially at night, hundreds of eunuchs lined up in front of the gate of the Qianqing Palace, and when the lights were lit at the right time, the neat and sudden lighting of various palace lamps attracted everyone to be born better.

Then the state banquet ended, the ministers went out of the palace, and the palace supervisor led the Wulanala clan to lead Huizhu and others to give Yinzhen six blessings, three kneels and three knocks in turn according to their status in the palace. Then there was Hongshi, Hongli and other princes saluted Yinzhen, and Yinzhen said a few words. Huizhu returned to Jingren Palace in a daze, and she didn't keep it, so she washed and fell asleep.

When he was drowsy, the continuous sound of firecrackers came, Huizhu woke up slightly, and held Baolian in his arms and muttered silently: "The first year of Yongzheng has arrived." And he leaned back and fell asleep.

(I suddenly caught a cold tonight, and I drank a bag of Jiujiu Cold Spirit, and I started writing this chapter.) So I didn't look at this either.,I guess this chapter is too dragging.,Goo~~)
