At that time, it was the end of the year, and the decoration shop was very busy, and the ornament that was played a year ago was sent over at noon on the 29th. Huizhu looked at the ornaments sent without any patience, thinking that lunch had passed, why hadn't Hongli returned home yet.

Thinking, I only heard the sound of greetings from the outside, saying that Yinxi was coming, and immediately saw Yinzhen wearing a heavy blue ink cloak, and walked in with Hongli in his arms.

The wind and snow were raging outside, walking outside, the body must have splashed with snow and wet clothes, Huizhu was too busy to salute and greet him, so he Zhang Luo fetched hot water to prepare snacks, waited to change his clothes and hats, washed his hands, and stopped for a while, hugging Hongli to ask for warmth, teasing.

For a while, Su Xin found a pillow on the back, Yinzhen took off his shoes, sat on the kang with his back cushion, frowned and said: "Hongli, come down, learn the rules, why don't you ask your mother." Huizhu wanted to say it, but Yinzhen's face was not good, so she had to swallow the words in her mouth and put down Hongli.

Hongli glanced at Yinxi, pouted slightly, twitched his nose, crawled into Huizhu's arms with an aggrieved expression, knelt down and kowtowed: "Son Hongli, please be a mother." Hui Zhu even said that he would let Hongli get up, but Hongli got up, dodged Huizhu's embrace, and stood aside.

Huizhu's hand was empty, she was surprised, and when she saw the grievance, she asked with a smile: "Brother Yuan, what's wrong, the little mouth is high, but who bullied our Brother Yuan?" Hongli didn't dare to make a sound, and peeked at Yinxi, Huizhu knew what he meant, and hurriedly turned his face and said: "Master, what's the matter, what's going on during the New Year, don't frighten the child."

Yinxi's face was dark, and when he heard this, his anger turned around, slapped the table with his palm, and reprimanded loudly: "You are still spoiling the child, you are still coquettish Hongli, you don't know what, he is now a tyrant in the palace, at a young age, no one, how do you behave as a mother, if you can't raise a child well, don't raise it well, so as not to spoil Hongli's future and humiliate the reputation of the house." Brother Yuan's name all day long, he is so old, and he is still called a milk name, what is this like. The anger was not small, and the servants in the house heard the sound and hurriedly knelt down. Wow, but Hongli cried loudly, threw himself into Huizhu's arms, called "Eniang", and cried.

Huizhu didn't want Yinxi to suddenly become popular, how could she see it, she couldn't help but be stunned, and then reacted, her heart was mixed, thinking that Hongli was raised in the palace these days, she saw five times more in January, and now she is celebrating the New Year, and finally went out of the palace and returned home, and was scared to cry like this. And he Yinxi was thinking about the affairs of the court all day long, thinking about the women in the back house of this house, and he had never raised Hongli, so why should he accuse her now. Could it be that when she is a bully, she comes over to spoil her when she is happy, and when she is unhappy, she scolds her at will without even telling her the reason, and she also doesn't let her raise Hongli, so what does she think. Yin Xiang looked at Huizhu, who was silent, who was comforting Hongli on the side, his forehead was on the line, and he slid it for a while, perhaps sensing that the words were too much, he waved his hand to let everyone retreat, and said in a stiff tone: "Some time ago, I heard that he and the second younger brother were at odds, and I didn't take it seriously.

But now it's okay, and he actually got into trouble with Hongyi and Hongshi, Hongshi is his own brother, let him, that's it. But Hongyi, he couldn't beat others, so he went up directly and opened his mouth to bite, and bit Hongyi, who was three years older than him, on the spot. As he spoke, he became angry again and said, "Okay, I'm already growing."

After hearing this, Huizhu was also shocked and angry in her heart, she didn't expect Hongli to act like this in the palace, and now she bullied and cried the fourteenth elder brother's son-in-law, Hongyi, is it really spoiled?

Huizhu didn't believe it, but she was worried that it was really the case, and she spoiled Hongli's temperament, so she asked Hongli to stand up, and asked, who knew that it was okay not to ask, and when she asked, Hongli cried even more, and couldn't cry and said: "Bad guy...... Bully... A pain...... It hurts a dozen Hongli, Hongli hurts. The words were interrupted and continued, but Huizhu listened to it clearly, and after a little thought, he knew the meaning of the words, and he hugged him into his arms in distress, and said where it hurts, and he saw Hongli raise his little hand.

Huizhu's heart trembled, the thought flashed, and she hurriedly lifted Hongli's cuffs, only to see that there were traces of this bruise on the white little arm.

Growing up in the Yinzhen Palace, I saw six or seven black and blue marks on Hongli's body, some of which were lighter in color and some of which were darker, so I also figured out the general situation of the matter. There was nothing to say for a while, and he looked at the mother and son who were crying, and the scene was so familiar, just like the past that belonged to him.

After a long time, he finally spoke: "The noisy thing in the study, most of the people who went to study in the study know that Hongli made trouble first, and when Huang Ama and I waited for the past, I saw Hongli crying when I warmed Hongli." Many ministers were also present, and it was estimated that Huang Ama Nian would not be trained much when he was young in Hongli, but there should be small punishments. He coughed slightly, and said: "Tomorrow, I Gaode sent a gift to the fourteenth brother's mansion, which is considered an apology, forget about it—,, it will be fine in the future, Hongli should wake up when he is older, and you should stop calling him by his name."

Huizhu didn't answer until she stopped crying, and said in an inaudible voice: "It will be fine in the future, I have heard this many times." Some things must be helpless, but it is difficult for people to accept. After that, Huizhu is like a parent in her previous life, when her own children quarrel and scuffle with other people's children, only her own children are to blame, and she reasoned with Hongli in a slightly serious tone and said a few words. Seeing the tear stains left on the little cheeks, I knew the mother's mood, not only feeling sorry for my own child, but also knowing that my own child was wronged, but I had to preach with a straight face.

A touch of surprise flashed under Yinzhen's eyes, Hui squinted his eyelids, and was slightly stunned when he reprimanded Huizhu for his education, and involuntarily involuntarily explored with his eyes, and his heart gradually rippled

In the evening, night falls, the bright moon rises into the sky, and the colorful lights in Prince Yong's mansion reflect each other, with colorful silk curtains and fragrant ash treasure candles, and the flavor of the New Year is displayed everywhere.

Yinzhen took Huizhu's mother and son late, and when the little eunuch passed into the house, the room was already full of people, and everyone was there. Everyone was greeting and laughing, and when they saw that Yinxi was coming, they hurriedly stopped talking and stepped forward to salute, and Yinxi responded: "For the New Year's holiday, get up." The crowd squatted down and got up.

Yinzhen and Ulanala walked up and sat down, and everyone sat down. Later, after Yinzhen said a few words about the scene, everyone followed suit, Hongshi walked to the middle of the room, knelt down and said: "Son Hongshi didn't take care of his younger brother, please punish Amma." The laughter in the room stopped abruptly.

Yinzhen didn't have an expression on his face, looked at Hongshi and asked, "Oh, what do you think you did wrong7 and what punishment should you receive?" Hongshi obviously didn't expect Yinxi to ask him instead, and he was a child about ten years old, so he was stunned, but he was afraid of Yinxi. I had to say vaguely: "My son shouldn't have bullied others by Hongli, and he also made the Hongyi of the fourteenth uncle's family cry, and he was punished."

Seeing that it was self-defeating, Li Shi got up and pulled Hongshi and said: "Hongshi's child is honest and not good at words, he just remembered that Hongli was young and didn't want him to be punished, so he came to ask for punishment, what a stupid child." said, and said with a side face: "Sister Niu Hulu, don't punish Hongli, after all, he is young and ignorant, and when he sees that Long Live Lord and De Niangniang are doting on him, he will make trouble." When everyone saw that the situation was not right, they did not answer.

Although this Li is still beautiful since he recovered from his illness last month, he is much older than before, and many fine lines can be faintly seen at the corners of his eyes. Huizhu didn't like Li's words, so she calmly looked at Li who was talking and singing to herself, and didn't answer. In such a situation, the Li family couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, so he had to laugh and call Yinzhen.

Yinzhen glanced at the Li family, moved his gaze to Hongshi, sighed secretly, and said in a deep voice: "Hongshi, as an elder brother, did not take good care of your younger brother, and also had a quarrel with him, you should be punished." After a pause, the conversation changed, and then said: "But now is the New Year's Pass, deduct it first, and wait until the first day of the new year, and then talk about it." After speaking, he waved his hand to let the Li mother and son get up.

Li Shideng's face changed suddenly, his body shook slightly, his sleeves were lowered, his fists were clenched, and he was half-ringing, and then he put on another robe and led Hongshi back to his position. The Ulanala clan thought about it for a thousand moments, but he just smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "Brother Hongshi is really sensible, and he will definitely be successful in the future." After a word, he wanted to call for another thing to say.

At this time, I saw Gao De bowing down into the house and saying, "Master, Fujin, the banquet is ready, but now the banquet is open." Yinxi didn't want to pursue more at this festival, so he ordered the banquet to be held, so everyone moved to the warm pavilion to use the banquet to restore the warm atmosphere. And Hongli is only three years old, who knows that the atmosphere that changed because of him just now, as soon as he is free, he mutters and laughs with the ordinary big Hongli on the side.

Then the seats dispersed, and the people dispersed. In the early morning of the second day, Hongli and Hongshi took a carriage into the palace and went to the study to study for half a day. In the afternoon, the Wulanala clan and others entered the palace for a banquet, and after the banquet, they returned home together. In this way, on the day of Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone saw that everything was as usual, Hongli still went to the study room to study, and Yin Jing only sent someone to send a gift to the fourteenth brother mansion to apologize, but did not snub Huizhu's mother and son, but let the Li mother and son lose face.

Unexpectedly, on the afternoon of the first day of the new year, the situation changed, and a word spread in the palace, saying that Emperor Kangxi withdrew Hongli from the study on the grounds that Hongli was not yet six years old, and also passed the word, no need to enter the palace to live. If so, everyone rested for a while, and saw that Hongli had lost his favor, so they waited to see that Huizhu's mother and son were not in the scenery and fell out of favor, and there was a sense of schadenfreude in their hearts.
