326 Side Concubine

The matter of the four-leaf alley was not mentioned, and it was the end of the year in a flash, and the New Year in the royal mansion was different from the past, because there were still the crown prince and the crown princess in the palace, so Chinese New Year's Eve had to go to the palace. But the atmosphere in the palace still has to be used, since the beginning of the child, the front gate building in the middle of the door downstairs hung up a color of eight treasure glazed palace lamps, such as plum, green pine and other colors of bonsai are also placed under the shadow wall.

If there are many people in other palaces, they will also set up a stage to sing operas, but there are only three masters in Anmu Palace, so they are exempt, Yin Xu is still so young that he can't understand it at all, and Yin Yu prefers to go to the opera garden with Xie Wanwei to watch, because there are many people, you can listen to gossip, and you can also rub the dim sum in the garden to eat.

But Xie Wan also spoke to Sun Shiqian, if there are people below who want to watch the play, they can also invite them, as long as the cost is not overrun, it can be allowed.

Now that Sun Shiqian is in charge of the palace, how to arrange it for the New Year and what to prepare is all up to him. Gongsun Liu served as the pawn treasury and managed the property of the palace, so it was still different from ordinary big families, and the princess didn't have to take care of these messy trivial matters, as long as she managed people.

On the twenty-ninth night of the year, she gave everyone a reward in advance. When the reward was issued, he remembered that Qian Zhuang's father and mother were still staying in Qinghe, so he asked him to go back to accompany the old man for the New Year, and by the way, he transferred her words and let the two elders go to Beijing with Qian Zhuang to retire. Uncle Qian is different from other people, the couple is old, and they have no children, they worried a lot about Qian Zhuang in those years, and now Qian Zhuang should give them a stable old age.

Early in the morning of Chinese New Year's Eve, I got up early to dress up, and it was still a complicated and heavy pearl and green seven Zhai crown. The golden embroidered clouds and clouds are a little more solemn and noble than the princess's regular clothes in the past.

She likes to see Yin Yu in a crown dress, Da Yin's crown clothes are very elegant and noble, Yin Yu is very tall, but not rough, his facial features are very compatible with these clothes.

From today, the imperial court will be closed for seven days, but the ministers and clan relatives above the second rank will also enter the Qianqing Palace to resign from the New Year. When Xie Wan and the three of them entered the palace, they saw many soft sedan chairs parked outside the Qianqing Palace. After entering the hall, I saw that a large number of royal relatives of the clan had gathered in the main hall. There are men and women. Because it's my own family, I don't avoid it so much.

The crown prince and the crown princess were there, and when they heard the rumors that Yin Yu and the others had arrived, a smile immediately appeared on the princess's face. The prince's eyes also flashed with anticipation. He had only seen Yin Xu twice. Every time, he was euphemistically hugged back by Yin Yu for various reasons, he was the crown prince, of course, it was impossible to ask him for anything in front of the palace people. So every time Xie Wan enters the palace, it will bring them a little excitement.

Maybe it's been two generations, or maybe it's because of other reasons, the emperor doesn't have too many feelings for Yin Xu, of course he is still happy, after all, he is the heir of his relatives, but he is only happy, and he will be rewarded with something, if he misses or is extraordinarily favored, but he may not be.

But Yin Xu obviously didn't care, he was born with a calm and indifferent appearance, no matter what the emperor looked at him, he refused to look at him more, but set his eyes on the people he liked, such as the crown prince, such as the crown princess, and Yin Zhao. The emperor didn't care about the first two times, but when he saw that this little fart child was dragging like this, he was not convinced, and asked Xie Wan to hug him closer, his fingers ruffled his hair, and Yin Xu finally glanced at him, a slanted eye.

The emperor still feels like he is blocked.

Here Yin Yu and Xie Wan came in with the boy, and the two knelt down to bow to the head and the prince, and then sat down beside the prince. Cui Fu took Yin Xu and handed it to the crown princess, and few people in the seat stepped forward to laugh: "Your Royal Highness looks really mighty." Coaxed the crown princess very happy, glanced at the prince, and moved Yin Xu over to show him.

Although the prince's expression was calm, he couldn't take his eyes off it immediately.

Below the crown prince, there are two young men, dressed in similar clothes to Yin Yu, the older one stares at Yin Yu and pouts uncontrollably, with a bitter face that can't be hidden, while the younger one has a soft expression, but it is very wooden. Xie Wan guessed that it was Yin Yao and Yin Chang, but they didn't come forward to pay a visit, and she just thought she couldn't see it.

As for the two side concubines Zheng and Wu, there is no place for them to stand on this occasion.

The emperor was not in good health, and everyone couldn't stay for a long time, so he withdrew after a few words of greeting and went to the East Palace.

The ladies all followed the princess to Fengqi Palace, and Yin Xu naturally became a topic of conversation in everyone's mouth. The crown princess was so happy, and she naturally talked to Xie Wan with her eyesight, although Xie Wan's background is not high, but her in-laws and husband can afford it, even if her status is low, others dare not look down on her.

As he was talking here, a palace maid came in outside the door and said, "Yu Niangniang, Concubine Zheng and Concubine Wu are here." ”

The crown princess hummed lightly and said in a harmonious voice: "Let them in." ”

This may be a fool who has a stupid fortune, Zheng Duo has always been stupid and stupid, this time Ji Zhenyuan was unlucky, although the Zheng family father and son were excluded from the entire core circle by Ji Zhenyuan, but in the end they were still stained with ashes, Zheng Duo was demoted by three levels, and now he is just a Langzhong.

So in the past few months, not only has the entire Zheng Mansion been honest, but even Concubine Zheng has also settled down a lot, Xie Wan has not entered the palace many times because she gave birth after sealing the concubine, so she has not seen this legendary Concubine Zheng, so she left an interest in her heart and planned to take a closer look.

The palace maid went out to spread the word, and soon two women in their thirties came in, all wearing neat palace makeup, the melon seed face on the left, phoenix eyes, a smile and two dimples, the pink glow curtain fell with Jin Tian'er, and they walked like the wind blowing willows. The one on the right is almost dressed up, but with a silver basin face, the expression is not as rich as the former.

Judging from their walking positions, the one on the left should undoubtedly be Concubine Zheng, and the other one must be Concubine Wu.

Zheng Wu and the others entered the outer hall, and passed through the beaded curtain of amber stringed up by the palace maids, and when they arrived at the inner hall, Concubine Zheng first glanced at everyone present with a smile, and then bent down and said to the crown princess: "Cuizhi greets the mother, the mother is blessed." Concubine Wu also bowed.

The crown princess still said with two points of harmony: "Sit down." Then a palace man stepped forward with a brocade pestle covered with Su silk cushions.

Concubine Zheng sat down, and her eyes naturally fell on Yin Xu, who was being held by the crown princess, and suddenly the dimple burst into laughter. "This is Your Highness? It's so cute. "I didn't mean to reach out and hug it. After speaking, she turned her head to look at Xie Wan, who was the crown princess, "The princess has always been good?" ”

Xie Wan nodded and said with a smile: "It's good." My mother and princess took good care of me. ”

Concubine Zheng nodded and said, "The prince is a very careful person. ”

Xie Wan knew that the crown princess didn't like her, because she didn't want to talk to her more, so she lowered her head and teased Yin Xu. However, there were clan relatives and daughters who didn't want to offend people next to her to talk to her, and she didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of the crown princess, so the atmosphere always seemed to be invigorating. Today's New Year, the crown princess didn't want to be tense, so she smiled and said, "Why don't we wipe the dominoes!" The princess gave the child to Mama Xia. ”

Xie Wan saw that there were two princesses of the same generation as the crown princess, so he gave way. The princesses all said that they would go to the harem to find concubines and concubines to talk to. Smiling and watching the game. Here Princess Chu and Princess Ningyang sat down, and Zheng Wu and the two served the princess from the side, and they started the game.

Here in Yongfu Palace, the kings of Chu, Jingjiang, and Ningyang are all there. Yin Yu was summoned to the Qianqing Palace to speak. Because the king of Chu and the king of Qi are now in charge of the affairs of the internal affairs office. The prince asked a few questions about their house. Let's talk about some things in this year's housekeeping.

"King An Mu is also idle now, what can the Internal Affairs Office let him do?" The prince asked.

King Qi of Chu is the brother of the prince who is not a fellow brother, and he is mixed with the prince when he is young. How clever a person is, as soon as he hears this, he understands.

Now that the emperor is old, he can't protect them in the future, and after the crown prince succeeds to the throne, it will be his world, if he doesn't follow his wishes at this time, the future will definitely be difficult. Hearing this, the King of Chu said: "This year, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has made a lot of purchases, and the Guangchu Division just needs a shrewd Liukulangzhong, and the younger brother sees that if King Anmu does not dislike it, he can take this matter down, and it can be regarded as a favor for the uncles." ”

The crown prince nodded, "Then let him report to the Internal Affairs Office for the beginning of the year." ”

King Ningyang said, "Why don't you see Uncle Qi Wang today?" ”

King Ningyang and King Jingjiang are both nephews of the emperor, and their identities are separated by another layer, because there is not much difference in age, but they all play together on weekdays.

King Jingjiang smiled: "You don't know, you pray that Uncle Wang ran a horse with Rong Enbo two days ago, broke his calf, and is recuperating from his injury." Early in the morning, he sent the prince into the palace to confess his guilt, and was scolded by the emperor twice. ”

When King Ningyang heard the horse race, he hurriedly glanced at him and pouted, indicating that the prince was still present.

The prince caught it, if it was in the past, he would have reprimanded them, but today he only glanced at them and said, "Knowing that Uncle Wang was injured, you won't go to see it?" "I don't blame them at all for not being motivated.

King Ningyang and King Jingjiang were both happy, it was rare to see that the prince was in such a good mood, so he dared to say: "It's strange to sit here, the snow is falling just right outside, and the red plum in the Imperial Garden will definitely open, why don't Your Highness hurt our younger brothers and nephews, please go up to the Xia Pavilion to drink two cups and appreciate the plum?" ”

The prince snorted lightly, turned his head and called Cui Fu: "Swing and go to the Xia Pavilion." ”

After playing a few rounds of cards in Fengqi Palace, Xie Wan came down and let Yin Zhao take his place.

The princesses went to the harem, but there were the daughters of the ministers such as Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Dou here, Concubine Zheng didn't know where she went, and Xie Wan, as the daughter-in-law of the East Palace, had to get up to entertain.

Fortunately, everyone is familiar with each other, and they don't pay attention to it so much, here Yin Zhao came down and asked Mrs. Wei to replace her, and Mrs. Dou and Xie Wan walked to the small shaker to look at Yin Xu, and inevitably broke a few gold bracelets and gold lock plates, and praised Yin Xu a few words. Things were so well prepared, it seemed that they had been prepared a long time ago.

Xie Wan received his mind, and then asked about Dou Xun's illness in passing, "I don't know how Hu Qin showed him?" If not, you should also ask the doctor to take a look. ”

Mrs. Dou sighed: "Earlier, when our old lady died in the line of duty, the emperor was sympathetic to us, and the imperial doctor was sent to the mansion one by one, and it was useless. Sometimes it is not necessary to see a doctor to see a fate, and it is not necessarily that the fame is good to cure the disease, sometimes it is those little-known folk doctors, because the patients they face are more knowledgeable, and often have miraculous effects on these stubborn diseases. ”

Xie Wan smiled and nodded: "That's the same." (To be continued.) )
