604 Housekeeping (and updates.)

Lan Qi smiled: "In the first month, it's good to walk around more." ”

Bafujin said yes, then waited for the mother to get on the sedan chair, and waited for the palanquin of the old Fujin of Prince An in front of him to leave, and the concubine Niangniang left here, she stood aside to watch the warm sedan chair go away, and then turned around to find the eighth brother, but only to see the people under the eighth brother stay there, and Fujin said: "The eighth brother said please go back first." ”

Bafujin was not very happy, and he had no intention of staying in the palace, so he rushed home early, and kept wandering in front of the door, waiting for her husband to return.

As the night deepened, the wind picked up outside, and the wind was rolling with scattered snow particles, and when Yinxi entered the house with a cold air, Bafujin brought ginger soup and asked him to drink it to ward off the cold, but Yinxi smiled: "It is not appropriate to eat ginger at night, I just bake the fire." ”

Bafujin ordered someone to move the charcoal basin to the front of the kang, and handed him his hand stove, Yinxi smiled and said: "It's not so cold, you are too careful." ”

The wife sat opposite, hung her head slightly, and hesitated for a long time before she spoke: "Don't send her next time, rely on a little old face, be powerful, and coax them again, even more ignorant of the sky." I don't care if it's my mother's family or not, don't trouble you. ”

"Don't make trouble, we have done what we should have done, and we have a clear conscience and others don't have to find faults." Yin Yu said gently, "I know your intentions, but after all, we are juniors, there are so many people in the royal family, we can't deal with it, since we can't deal with it, we will treat everyone equally, don't be too troublesome, never blame many people." ”

Bafujin nodded: "Anyway, I listen to you, I just don't want you to take care of me, give them too much face, they didn't treat me well in the past, and I don't plan to go back when I walk out of that door." If they have anything to do in the future, please treat them impartially and do not show favoritism for me. ”

Yin Yu smiled: "This is nature. ”

The wife has a smile on her face, the bright eyes under the candle flame, they have only been married for five days, but there is a tacit understanding that seems to have gotten along for more than ten years, the two of them joined hands under the moon on the wedding night, Yinxi said: "We have our own home." ”

Ba Fu Jin looked at him at that time, his heart shook, and he said with tears: "Why do you say that? ”

Yin Yu said: "I traveled around the palace in my infancy, the seven brothers and the twelve brothers can still live in the elder brother's house, and I am the only one among the brothers who has no fixed place, although I have no memory at that time, but the helplessness at that time seems to be engraved into the body." When I grew up in Changchun Palace, not to mention the fence, my biological mother was very indifferent to me, and now although our mother and son are close, I also know her helplessness back then, but the sadness of those years, like the helplessness of infancy, is engraved in the body. I know that you also send people under the fence, but from now on, we will rely on each other and have our own homes. ”

Thinking of those words at this moment, Bafujin's heart is still shaking, she has lived miserably in her grandfather's house for more than ten years, she was blinded and mean, when the fifth elder brother chose Fujin and failed, she was also scolded by the old Fujin for being useless, and now she is married to the eighth elder brother, although she is not the eighth elder brother, but after marrying him, she decided that he brought himself out of the dire situation, and he was determined to be his wife wholeheartedly.

"God must have taken pity on me, so he set such a marriage for me, Yinxi, it's good to marry you." Bafujin slowly moved behind Yinxi, leaned on her husband's back, carefully wrapped her hands around her waist to hug Yinxi, and said gently, "At home and outside, from now on, we will face it together, if I have suffered for more than ten years, it is to meet you, I feel that it is worth it now." ”

Yinxi's heart was warm and he smiled: "I also know that there must be people in this world who will treat me sincerely." ”

The couple was tired of being crooked for a while, but they were still a young couple, and they didn't get tired of being ambiguous for a while, but they felt very warm and reassuring to rely on each other. After that, Bafujin waited for her husband to wash and change clothes, and said that she was going to the fourth elder brother's mansion tomorrow as a guest, and the eighth elder brother said: "There are side Fujin and Gege in the fourth brother's mansion, and they don't follow the fourth elder brother out on weekdays, and the people in the palace are not very familiar, so you should be careful when you go." ”

Bafujin remembered it in his heart, and the next day he went to the fourth elder brother's mansion with the concubines, and saw that there was not much difference between the fourth elder brother's mansion and his own family, and Qifujin whispered to her that although the layout of the brothers' houses is different, the scale and luxury are about the same, even if the fourth elder brother is the son of Concubine De's mother, and there is the adoptive mother of Queen Xiaoyi, the emperor has no special exception to add anything more to the fourth elder brother's mansion, and even the number of servants serving below is the same.

I don't know why, Bafujin is secretly happy about this, maybe he has never been treated fairly for more than ten years, and only now does he really understand what it feels like to be respected, and the emperor treats all princes equally, how is it not a respect.

On that day, in addition to a few elder brother Fujin, the Fujin of the Beile Beizi family of the royal palace also came to gather, Bafujin looked coldly, and sure enough, he didn't see the side Fujin and Gege in the fourth elder brother's mansion coming to entertain guests, so they came first to say hello and then retreated.

After that, there were many people, and the young women got together and it was inevitable that the parents would chatter for a short time, and Bafujin listened to a lot of gossip, especially Sanfujin pointed to the furnishings in this house and said: "Don't look at these things simply, I don't know how many good things are hidden in the fourth family, Concubine De Niangniang has been in front of the Queen Mother for more than ten years, and the good ones in Cining Palace have not all moved to Yonghe Palace?" Queen Xiaoyi's family is rich and noble, and she must leave a lot of money for the fourth elder brother, I heard that now Concubine De Niangniang also gives the fourth elder brother real money every once in a while, but you look at the simple appearance of this family, and the heart responds to us. ”

But these words did not instigate Bafujin to be disgusted with his brother and sister-in-law's house, on the contrary, he secretly kept in mind the way of Sifujin governing the family, and talked to her husband after returning home, Yinyu said: "Concubine De has always been low-key and introverted in the palace, and the fourth sister-in-law has lived in the palace for two years, and she must have learned." ”

Beatitude said confidently: "I will learn these good ones and keep your home in order for you." ”

Yinxi smiled bitterly: "But I can't be as deliberately low-key as the fourth brother, if Concubine Hui has a body, she will be subsidized from the eldest brother's mansion, and I can read a few points here, which is already good." My mother's status is low, and I can't save anything for many years, so I don't have to count on it. Although I don't have much, it's enough for our family to live, and then you can take care of it, and it's good that life is decent and not hard. ”

Bafujin said nonchalantly: "According to what you say, don't I have to feel guilty, most of the concubines are well-off, and there must be subsidies, but I have nothing, Prince An's Mansion itself can't turn around, maybe I still hope that we will give some charity in the future." ”

Yin Yu smiled and sighed: "On this, we are really a good match." ”

However, young people can think of this, how can the elders in the palace not worry about them, but even if they are all the emperor's sons, many things cannot be done the same, and the slightest mistake will become a talking point, and in the end it will not help the child much, but it will be criticized. At this point, only the Queen Mother can really not cause criticism, Xuan Ye instructed Lan Qi to trouble the Queen Mother, in the name of the Queen Mother, she has taken care of the Seventh Elder Brother and the Eighth Elder Brother Mansion for more than two years.

Seeing the queen mother's attitude in the Changchun Palace, Concubine Hui consciously warned her to ignore her adopted son, and she couldn't wait for the emperor or the queen mother to really come to the door and ask why she was favoring one over the other before taking action. Fortunately, she has the support of Mingzhu Mansion behind her, and even if Mingzhu Mansion suffered setbacks back then, it was enough to maintain the dignity of the family for several lifetimes.

As for Lan Qi, she originally thought that when her brothers left the palace, she would be able to worry less about many things in the palace, but now she knows that the children have just moved to another place, and she will still have to worry about it in the days to come. In addition, her sons began to walk around the court on errands for the emperor, and if she did not do it properly, she would be suspected of colluding with the ministers to interfere in the court's affairs.

That night, Lan Qi suddenly woke up to these things, and couldn't help but lose her temper at Xuan Ye, the emperor was inexplicable, and after listening to her complaints, she couldn't stop laughing, Lan Qi was tired of rubbing him and didn't allow him to laugh, Xuan Ye held her down and said, "Do you want us to count which things are you asking for trouble?" Tomorrow, you go to the brother's house by yourself, let Mama Su Mala enlighten you well, I tell you, you stand and talk without backache and come back, in vain my thoughts. ”

Lan Qi would mutter, "I can't just say it?" ”

Xuan Ye always smiled: "It's all grandmothers." But the man in his arms said, "But I will never be younger than you." "It can make him love it, and he will be at ease by Lan Qi's side, and he will be nowhere to be found when he leaves the door of Yonghe Palace.

However, comfort and peace of mind are the rarest thing in the royal family, and as soon as the excitement of the prince's marriage in the first month of the month of Layue passes, in February, he will be busy with the major event of Princess Kejing's marriage to Khalkha. This time, the emperor seemed to show his sincerity and sent a huge team to send off his relatives, and Prince Yu and the eldest brother were appointed as ambassadors to send off relatives, and they would escort Princess Kejing all the way to Khalkha.

Concubine Yi had been foolishly believing that because of her dignity, her adopted daughter had been valued by the emperor because of her own dignity, and she was proud in the palace for a while, until the end of February, when the Qing army forced back the Dzungar army in Mobei, everyone woke up in shock.

It turned out that the emperor sent a huge team to send his relatives this time, not because he valued Yikun Palace, but because he had other plans, and sent troops and horses under the pretense of sending relatives to launch a powerful attack on Galdan, who was defeated by the Qing army unsuspectingly, and had to surrender and beg for mercy, expressing his willingness to reconcile with the Qing court.

Last time, Prince Yu suffered this loss, but this time it was the emperor's will in advance, if Galdan intended to show goodwill, he would no longer pursue, let Prince Yu and them quickly return to Beijing, and wait for Galdan to come to surrender and show goodwill.

But it was not until the beginning of March that Galdan had no intention of surrendering and surrendering, and at this time the word really came out in the court that the emperor intended to drive the expedition again.
