It's the New Year, the fourteenth is not there, Hongchun is separated, and although the Baylor Mansion is full of lights, it can't hide the loneliness.

This year's weather is abnormal, and in the middle of winter, it is like a warm scene in late spring, with the sun shining every day and the gentle breeze, which makes the taste of the already missing year more and more faint.

On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, I dressed up early in accordance with the rules, and led Ah Xing and Hongming to the palace to ask for peace.

Hongchun was very considerate, and waited respectfully at the gate of the palace with his new daughter-in-law, Guerjia, and waited for me to be safe, and then went to Yonghe Palace with me.

Concubine De saw her granddaughter-in-law, she was also happy, rewarded the gift, and inevitably compared Hongli's Fucha clan with Hongchun's Guerjia clan, one is lively and innocent, the other is demure and delicate, I really can't find anything wrong, all in all, it is much more pleasing than me and Sifujin's two daughters-in-law.

With a new daughter-in-law, the two old daughters-in-law and Sifujin and I can also take a rest, and everything like kneading dough and rolling dough and making dumplings can be left to them, just staring at the side and teaching lessons.

Ah Xing is not young, I am not in a hurry, Concubine De is worried, as if the dignified Qing County Lord can't get married, she asks left and right, and asks the prince Belle who wants to invite him to the palace from the Spring Festival to pick a grandson-in-law.

Ah woke up, and knew that he was shyer than before, so he blushed, lowered his head and listened silently without saying much.

Only Hongming is carefree, running around in the front and back yards, for a while he wants to pull Hongchun to light fireworks and set off firecrackers, and for a while he crawls to the kang and wraps himself in the arms of Concubine De.

Concubine De didn't restrain him with rules, and let him make trouble. And I think it's a child's nature to play, so I let him be naughty.

Hongli and Hongchun are both studying in the palace, Hongli also personally taught Hongchun arithmetic, they have been walking around in front of Concubine De since childhood, they are much closer than the emperors and grandsons of other Hongzi generations.

The two of them stood in the patio and talked, muttering, not knowing what they were doing. Yonghe Palace is because of the fourth master and the fourteenth master Ding Wang, the holy favor is rich, and the concubine herself is powerful, so the front and back of the house are full of people, which is the most proud and noisy place in the harem.

The dinner party was the same as in previous years, still eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner in the Qianqing Palace, but the banquet started late, and there were many rules and ceremonies, so it was really hard work, so at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, Concubine De would first order someone to cook two pots of dumplings to fill everyone's stomach.

The Guerjia clan and the Fucha clan have never spent the New Year in the palace, and they don't understand many rules, so they are a little at a loss, but they are quite well educated, they are both from the orthodox education of famous nobles, they know how to judge the situation, and there is nothing difficult to figure out the meaning by watching the actions of the elders.

When everyone was doing their own things and laughing, a voice came from the Yonghe Gate: "The emperor has arrived." "I was pulling Hongming in the corner to feed dumplings, these days because of the New Year, everything is indulged in him, he saw the wind and rudder, inch by inch, the grandmothers fed him dumplings, he refused to open his mouth.

I was annoyed, but the taboo was in the palace, so I didn't discipline him in front of everyone, and I was worried that I would make him hungry too late, so I patiently fed him personally.

Hearing the rumor, I hurriedly put down the bowl, took out a handkerchief and wiped Hongming's mouth indiscriminately, and led him to the porch to greet him.

Kangxi is an old man in his sixties, with long braids and white hair, wrinkles, and strong legs and feet.

I stood behind Concubine De and looked at it from afar, only to see Kangxi with his hands behind his back, smiling, and his posture and movements were really exactly the same as Fourteen.

To tell the truth, Kangxi's sons, no matter in appearance, posture, and pace, are more and more similar the older they get, plus the older ones have begun to get rich, their long faces have become round faces, and their words and demeanors are more similar.

When I looked closely, Kangxi was accompanied by a young man in a dark blue robe, with a decent demeanor, but he was a little weak, as if he was about to be blown away by the wind.

I vaguely guessed something, weighed a little in my heart, and was slightly dissatisfied. When they arrived, I was busy kneeling down with Concubine De and the others to salute, Kangxi raised his hand and said with a smile: "All are exempt." He stretched out his hand to help Concubine De again, and said with a smile: "You still have a New Year's flavor here, and there are many people." The young man behind him stepped forward to greet Concubine De and said, "Hesheri and Zhuo have met Master De, Master De Wanfu Jin'an. Concubine De didn't remember who this person was, because he was brought by Kangxi, and his surname was Hesheri, so she didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly smiled and said: "Don't be polite, just get up quickly." Everyone hugged each other into the hall, Kangxi sat down, beckoned to Hongming, and said with a smile: "Boy, come here." Hongming was a little afraid of Kangxi, but he hid behind me, and Concubine De said: "Come over, the imperial grandfather called you." Kangxi was not angry, grabbed a handful of Western candy from the plate, and said, "Grandpa Huang has candy to eat here." "I guess Hongming must have secretly rolled his eyes, he is not a two- or three-year-old baby, and a few candies can't coax him.

Guo listened to him and said childishly: "E-niang said, if you eat too much sugar, your teeth will be bad, and I won't eat it." Kangxi was stunned, but he didn't scare the few grandmothers who were serving Hongming to death, and even Concubine De tightened her face, for fear that Kangxi would be displeased.

Kangxi stopped talking, and all the sounds in the room suddenly stopped, and it was incredibly quiet. Kangxi groped around his waist for a moment, untied a purse, took out a sample object from it, and said, "Grandpa Huang has a good thing to play with here, do you want to take a look?" Seeing that his face was as usual, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Hongming didn't notice the change in the atmosphere, took two steps forward, and said, "What is it?" Kangxi shook the object in his hand and said, "Just come and take a look." "Three generations are in the same house, and getting grandchildren under their knees is also a great thing in the world.

Hongming was curious, and soon leaned on Kangxi's knee to play with a magnifying glass, and happily ran to me and said, "Eniang, you see, as long as you put things under the round mirror, they will get bigger, do you think it's strange?" I kept my eyes on Hesheri and Zhuo, and said casually, "It's really strange." In the Qing Dynasty, the magnifying glass is a Western object, it is extremely difficult to buy in the market, so it is precious, Hongming has never seen it before, and now he has it, and he is willing to return it, so he said: "Does the imperial grandfather want to reward Hongming?" Kangxi snorted and said with a smile: "This kid is not afraid at all" and said: "Okay, the imperial grandfather has rewarded you, you can play with it." Hongming jumped three feet, laughed so hard that his mouth cracked, and said, "Long live the imperial grandfather!" Kangxi laughed, and slowly turned his gaze from Hongming to Ah Xing, and said, "Ah Xing, why don't you speak?" Ah Xing hurriedly got up, walked in front of Kangxi, and said, "Ah Xing greets the imperial grandfather." "She used to be very favored, but she is older, her temperament is much more stable, and she is not always ignorant in front of her elders, and she has become more introverted and reserved.

Kangxi smiled: "I haven't seen you for a while, and I've grown half a head taller." After a moment, he said meaningfully: "It's time to get married." Ah Xing's cheeks were slightly red, and her afterglow swept on Hesheri and Zhuo's bodies, wringing a handkerchief in her hand, and she didn't say much.

Kangxi Chao and Zhuo Yang raised their hands, motioned him to step forward, and said to Ah Xing: "His name is Hesheri and Zhuo, temporarily on an errand in the household department, he is the nephew of Empress Renxiao, and also my nephew, he has never been to Yonghe Palace, can you lead him around?" "The emperor spoke, who would dare not obey?

Ah Xing understood what he meant, and said in a low voice: "Yes." Kangxi smiled: "Good boy." He also said: "He Zhuo, you stay in Yonghe Palace first, and when you have a dinner, you can go to Qianqing Palace for a banquet." He Zhuo's voice was clear and clean, and he hugged his fists and said: "Weichen obeys the order." Although in ancient times, it was very important to pay great attention to the words of the parents and the matchmaker.

But there are also many times when parents still ask their children for their opinions, so everything cannot be said in unison.

According to Ah Xing's temperament, if Kangxi messes up the mandarin duck spectrum, Ah Xing is not willing to marry, and he won't make a big fuss?

However, I don't like this and Zhuo, it's too thin, and I feel like a sick seedling. When I get home, I have to talk to Ah Xing.

Ah Xing Chao and Zhuo said: "You come with me" and Zhuo Dafang hugged his fists and said: "There is Lord Lao." Seeing the two of them go out, they looked at the back, their height and posture were very compatible, and Zhuo also knew how to take care of people, helped Ah Xing pick up the curtain, and when he arrived in the garden, he was worried that Ah Xing's flower pot shoes were not good for walking on the stone road, so he only went to the flat ground of the palace porch.

As long as Ah Xing opened his mouth, he said yes. Seeing a pair of children go out, Kangxi smiled and said: "I only received a letter from Fourteen in the morning, saying that everything is fine, you can rest assured." In the first few battles, he won a lot of spoils, and I was happy. He glanced at Li Dequan again, and Li Dequan retreated to the door and brought a box of quiches.

Kangxi said: "Naisarluk's good milk is made, and it is made by Lao Fourteen himself, you all taste it." When Concubine De heard this, she was very happy and said: "The old fourteenth is filial piety, no matter where he goes, he remembers his family." Kangxi said: "I am very pleased that he contributed to the country." After that, he got up and said, "Several Mongolian princes are still waiting in the Qianqing Palace, and I went first." Concubine De and the others hurriedly got up to see them off, and said, "Congratulations to the emperor." "Fourteen won the battle, and the children were blessed together, otherwise Kangxi would not have taken time out of everything to take care of Ah Xing's marriage.

Don't call the Fourteen Records to hang in the capital, so that he can fight with peace of mind! The emperor's heart is deep, and it is really unpredictable. After noon, the eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to summon everyone to come over for dinner, this year's dinner was hosted by the imperial kitchen, Concubine De was old, and many things did not have the mental and physical strength to cook, so she let go of her hands, only supervised, and the specific matters were handed over to the two heads of affairs, so she had a lot of leisure.

She led her son, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter-in-law to the Qianqing Palace, quite proud. Hesheri and Zhuo were quiet and gentle, smiling silently beside Ah Xing.

Ah Xing is a girl in the end, she is shy, and she is afraid that others will laugh at her, so she deliberately keeps a calm face, and does not talk to He Zhuo, pretending to be normal.
