In the past, the month of Layue, always lively and lively to prepare for the New Year, now at the end of every year, Lan Qi will give birth to melancholy in the bottom of her heart, I am afraid that in recent years, she can not forget the sadness of the death of the Queen Mother, to this year, the Queen Mother died for three years, because the emperor decided to take the prince to the tomb early in the morning, the Queen Mother three years of sacrifice, the palace does not need to prepare, and the concubines do not want to follow, Lan Qi only in the Yonghe Palace silently memorial, did not do too much for this.

The emperor and the crown prince need five days before they can return to Beijing, and the palace sealing ceremony is also waived, and it is scheduled to return to Luan on the 28th of the lunar month, and then serve the empress dowager as usual to celebrate Chinese New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, and Concubine Rong and Lan Qi Haosheng will supervise the banquet, and will hold a banquet in the Qianqing Palace on New Year's Day, and reward the meritorious generals in the battle of Galdan. In this way, although the emperor was not in the palace for four or five days, Lan Qi and Concubine Rong had no leisure for a moment, and tried their best to urge the Internal Affairs Office to make all preparations.

On the day of the death of the Empress Dowager, the concubines in the palace and the women of the second grade or more ordered the women to follow the Empress Dowager in the Yinghua Palace, because the emperor and the prince paid tribute to the mausoleum, the palace did not need to be too extravagant, and dispersed after fulfilling their intentions, but Prince Yu Fujin had to pass the word to the palace maid, saying that Concubine De Niangniang invited her to sit in Yonghe Palace.

Fu Jin first arrived at Yonghe Palace, several little nephews surrounded her affectionately frolicking, Concubine De followed the Queen Mother back to Ningshou Palace and did not return, and when she was happy with the children, Lan Qi rushed back, and saw Prince Yu Fu Jin teasing the fourteenth elder brother to laugh like a flower, and said happily: "Yinyu likes the eldest aunt like this, so go home with the eldest aunt, and it is good to be a son to the eldest aunt." ”

The fourteenth elder brother ran to hug Eniang's leg and said, "I'm not going anywhere, I'm Eniang's son." ”

Prince Yu Fujin said with a smile: "The children now are smart, where is it like us at that time, give a piece of candy to eat and follow." ”

"No, they're all weird." Lan Qi took her son and Fu Jin to the warm pavilion together, sat a few minutes apart from the case, the children pestered a few words and let the nurse take them away, they walked away, Huan Chun and Ziyu held a huge box, Fu Jin knew that Concubine De wanted to give her something at a glance, and said politely: "What kind of treasure did Niang Niang get, reward me to open my eyes?" ”

Lan Qi asked Huanchun to open it, and saw a bottle of sky blue glazed amphora round belly bottle lying on the silk satin, Fu Jin's eyes lit up, Lan Qi smiled: "I don't know what the style of marriage at my sister-in-law's house is, the emperor said that sky blue glaze is rare, there are few in total, I want to come to this one, I want to leave it for my sister-in-law to take it back, sister-in-law look, this is not the prince to fool you with the rain over the azure glaze." ”

While speaking, Huanchun brought the azure glazed disc placed in the Yonghe Palace, and there was a slight difference between the two, Huanchun smiled and said: "The emperor rewarded Niangniang with a long-necked bottle before, and Niangniang didn't dare to give you what the emperor rewarded, so she specially asked the emperor to come to one, thinking about bringing it back to Fujin to play." ”

Prince Yu Fujin rubbed a few times, and sighed: "It's really Concubine De Niangniang to come, this glaze is extremely difficult, don't say that you can't produce a few a year, often a few years are not common, Niangniang's reward is too valuable, and the concubine doesn't dare to ask for it." ”

"Since my sister-in-law likes it, it's just an ornament, and I also borrow flowers to offer Buddha, which is the emperor's intention." Lan Qi pulled Prince Yu Fujin to sit down, and said kindly, "This year, since the prince took the side of Fujin in April, no one in the palace and outside the palace had been idle, and there was a war in July and August, and then when the prince returned, there was such a thing, our women's family cannot interfere in the government and politics, but behind closed doors, the family affairs between brothers can still be said, long live Lord often tells me that he cares most about his brothers, but this time it has made some embarrassment, I am afraid that my sister-in-law will not be able to get over it in her heart, and she will have resentment." ”

Fu Jin got up anxiously and said: "Niangniang's words hurt the concubines, how dare the concubines have grievances against the emperor, earlier, earlier in Ningshou Palace and the queen mother, I was too scared at that time, I don't know how things will go, now I see that the emperor and the prince are as harmonious as ever, and the concubines are at ease." ”

"Sister-in-law thinks like this, I am at ease, the emperor is also at ease, the family and everything is prosperous, the emperor has a total of these two brothers, and our concubines are closer than others." Lan Qi said with a smile, asked Huanchun to carefully wrap the gift and hand it to the people accompanying Fu Jin, and then talked to her about it, not to mention those unpleasant things.

Prince Yu Fujin sat for an hour before leaving the palace, and when he left, he took the gift given to her by Concubine De with a spring breeze, and her waist was straightened a lot, Lan Qi sent her to the door affectionately, looking at the posture of people leaving, Huanchun said on the side: "The emperor said, you have to give it to Fujin, and I will never give you good things next time, Niangniang is really willing?" ”

Lan Qi said proudly: "It's just a porcelain, the emperor always thinks his things are good, when I haven't seen the world, he doesn't know how many good things I took from the empress dowager, I'm not rare." ”

Huanchun saw that the master was happy, and mentioned one more thing, saying that Zhang promised that the fetus would be stable and healthy, and the imperial doctor asserted that it could be delivered smoothly, so that the master should not worry, but Lanqi wanted to see her in person, saying that it was better to pick up the sun than to hit the sun, and let Huanchun go and bring the thirteenth brother dressed neatly, and she wanted to go to the courtyard north of Ningshou Palace.

The thirteenth elder brother will be five years old during the New Year, he is already a big child, the little guy is smart and good, Lan Qi is already loved as his own son, and the brothers also get along well, Yinzhen knows that the thirteenth brother is not a mother, but he is as kind to Yinzuo as in the past, which makes Lan Qi very comforting.

And the thirteenth elder brother likes the fourth brother and the fourth brother to shout and follow behind Yinzhen, every time the fourth elder brother comes to Yonghe Palace to ask for peace, the little guy has to stick to him, Lian Huanchun said, in addition to the thirteenth elder brother is more gentle, many things are very similar to the sixth elder brother back then, probably for the fourth elder brother, it is a great comfort.

At this time, Lan Qi led the little guy who was wrapped up to the north of Ningshou Palace, these days she walked around Qixiang Palace and other places, doing the "wide favor" that she had always hated, plus Concubine Yi pulled the chapter and promised to show goodwill to her, Lan Qi did not leave this place, and it was also reasonable. And now, the relationship with Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi has long been clear, and Lan Qi doesn't care what they think about it. Along the way, the thirteenth elder brother jumped up and down to follow Lan Qi and asked where he wanted to go, Lan Qi smiled and said, "Do you remember the chapter that had a lot of fun with Yinxiang last time?" She is about to give birth to a little doll, Eniang will take you to send her something, Zhang promised to like Yinxiang very much, you will be very happy to see you. ”

"E-niang." Yinxiang shouted to Lan Qi, pulled her arm to signal to stop, Lan Qi turned around and squatted down, hugged the child and asked him what was wrong, the little guy whispered in his ear, "Eniang, Zhang promised to give birth to my Eniang, right?" ”

Lan Qi was stunned and couldn't help asking, "Who did Yinxiang listen to?" ”

The thirteenth brother squinted and smiled, proudly stretched out his hand to compare a two, and said happily: "The fourth brother told me, the fourth brother said that I am the same as him, I am a child with two mothers, and I am very blessed." The fourth brother said that when I grow up, I will be filial to my mother and to be filial to Zhang. ”

Lan Qi didn't expect that Yin Zhen had already said these words to his younger brother in private, thinking of his strong reaction when he knew about these things, at this time and that time, the elder brother can now enlighten his younger brother so well.

Yinxiang hugged Lan Qi and said, "Eniang, this is a secret, don't tell others." ”

Lan Qi smiled: "Brother lied to you, it's not a secret, everyone can know, we Yinxiang have two mothers, and especially well-behaved children have such blessings." Now E-Niang will take you to see Zhang Promise, and when you see her in a while, how can Yinxiang call her? ”

The thirteenth elder brother pursed his lips and looked at his mother blankly, probably the fourth elder brother taught him, he can't be called randomly, I don't know what their brother said, Yinxiang asked Lan Qi at this moment: "Can I call her Eniang?" E-niang, will you be unhappy? ”

But the little guy himself seemed to be dizzy, frowning and a little distressed, and his cute appearance made Lan Qi couldn't help but kiss him a few times, pulled Yinxiang to continue walking, and told him clearly: "After a while, Yinxiang saw Zhang and agreed, and called her Eniang, okay?" ”

Here, a pot-bellied pregnant woman is holding Xiaoyu's hand and walking in a small and secluded courtyard, because the place is too small, she shouts dizziness around Xiaoyu, so she stops to rest. Zhang promised to laugh at her: "I don't feel tired, you're so lazy, go back and rest, let Lily of the Valley accompany me." ”

Xiaoyu couldn't wait to be lazy, let the master stand up, she was going to find Aunt Lily of the Valley to accompany her, so she walked away two steps, saw a child coming in front of the door, and saw that it seemed to be the thirteenth elder brother, and shouted anxiously: "Master, look, it's the thirteenth elder brother who is here." ”

Yinxiang crossed the high threshold, and stood up to look inside, this side is not as spacious as Yonghe Palace, and you can see all the places at a glance, because there is very little contact with your mother, although you played well last time, but you don't remember what it looks like, but I heard Eniang say that Zhang promised to give birth to a little doll, and I know that this big-bellied person is his Eniang.

Yinxiang Chaozhang promised to run, but there was ice in the courtyard that had not been cleared and the snow turned into water, and the thirteenth elder brother ran in a hurry, and Zhang promised to say loudly: "Slow down, slow down, be careful of falling." But the little guy was very nimble, and ran to her in a few clicks, as if he was too close for fear of hitting her stomach, and took a few steps back, and said with a smile on his face, "Eniang, I'm here to see you." ”

The smile on Zhang Gong's face suddenly froze, as if in a dream, he looked at the thirteenth elder brother, and then looked at Xiaoyu on the side, Xiaoyu had already said excitedly: "Master, the thirteenth elder brother called you Eniang." ”

At this time, more people came in front of the door, only to see Lan Qi in a gorgeous costume being surrounded by people entering the door, but the thirteenth elder brother did not rush to Lan Qi's side, but took his mother's hand and said: "Eniang, do you remember me, we played together in Changchun Garden." ”

Zhang promised with tears in his eyes, Lan Qi slowly walked up to her, and said with a smile: "He already knew, there are many brothers, and he can't hide anything, it is the meat that fell from your body." ”
