Mo Yu withdrew with a smile. When she reappeared, she was holding something in her hand. Before she even got close to Honghui, she had already jumped up and shouted with joy, "Kite! It's a kite!"
While talking, he ran and took a kite from Mo Yu's hand that was almost as big as others. It was a kite made in the shape of an eagle. The eagle in the painting was fully visible and lifelike, especially the pair of eagle eyes, which were sharp and divine.
, it’s almost like it’s come alive. It can be seen that the person who painted the eagle is not only an extraordinary painter but also extremely attentive.
"Auntie, how did you know I wanted a kite?" Honghui's eyes were so happy that his eyes stopped laughing. He held the kite and looked left and right. He couldn't tell how happy he was.
Such unabashed joy made Ling Ruo smile. She pinched his chubby cheeks and said, "Auntie, you still don't know what you want? What do you think, do you want auntie to fly a kite with you?"
"Yes!" Honghui answered loudly, fearing that Ling Ruo would take back his words if he was slower and skipped out. Ling Ruo quickly asked Mo Yu to get a pair of soft-soled embroidered shoes for her to put on. These flowerpot-soled shoes are still suitable for walking.
, if you want to run, you have to fall.
"Your Majesty, please slow down." Ling Ruo shouted as he chased the small figure in front of him. The kite was held in his hand by a string and flew behind him.
In March, when the grass grows and orioles fly, it is a good time to fly kites. Honghui laughed while running, and the cheerful and clear voice resounded throughout the house, cutting through the peaceful sky and flowing clouds, and the flourishing cherry blossoms washed down and fell.
The white petals are flying in the air, making this world extremely beautiful.
In the sky full of cherry blossoms, Ling Ruo and Honghui flew the kite up together, soaring into the sky. Honghui was surprised that the kite made a "wow" sound after it flew into the sky. After asking, he found out that Ling Ruo was flying on the wings of an eagle.
A bamboo flute is added below, and it will sound when the wind blows, just like someone is playing the flute.
Honghui clapped his hands happily and couldn't help but ask Ling Ruo to fly the kite higher and higher. He was still not satisfied until all the strings were flown. He even asked on a whim: "Auntie, if I keep extending the strings, what will happen?"
Can a kite fly to the moon palace at night?"
"What? At such a young age, you are thinking about going to the Moon Palace to see Fairy Chang'e?" Ling Ruo joked.
Honghui wrinkled his nose that looked like Yinzhen and said: "No way, Ama has said it before. There is no Fairy Chang'e in the Moon Palace. It's just a myth. Only the wet nurse will take it seriously. I told her so."
She just didn’t believe it several times and it made me so angry.”
Mo Yu interjected from the side: "Your Majesty has never been to the Moon Palace, so how do you know it's not there!"
"If Ama says no, there must be no." Honghui said with his chin raised. In his heart, what Ama said is absolutely correct.
Ling Ruo handed the reel of string to Honghui and said with a smile: "Don't talk about it, just play with it for a while and then put the kite down. If you fly it so high, if the wind breaks the string, the kite will float away."
"
Hearing that the kite might break, Honghui nodded hurriedly and carefully collected the string bit by bit. He wanted to fly it a few more times.
Ling Ruo and the others didn't know that there was a pair of eyes staring at them from behind the trees not far away...
There is no doubt that Ling Ruo and Honghui are in love. For this reason, Nala also takes care of Ling Ruo, allowing Ling Ruo to consolidate his shallow foundation and status bit by bit.
Although Nala didn't care much about the affairs of the family, she was the direct descendant of Fujin. She was on good terms with Ling Ruo. Those who were jealous of Ling Ruo had to restrain themselves. For a time, there were a lot less rumors about Ling Ruo in the family.
At least that's how it appears on the surface.
Flowers always wither when they are in full bloom, returning their beauty to dust; but what about people? What happens after the joy and brilliance has passed?
The news that Xiao Changzi was not dead reached Nian Suyan's ears without any surprise. She snorted coldly and put the mare's milk she was drinking on the table. She raised her eyebrows and said, "You can actually save me like this. What a shameful life."
"
"Master, are you just going to let him go like this?" Lu Yi wiped away the mare's milk stain that accidentally got on Nian's sleeve.
Nian glanced at her displeasedly and said, "What can you do if you don't let him go? Do you want Ben Fujin to go back on his word?"
Lu Yi quickly bowed her head, "I don't dare. I just think it's too cheap this time. Those people in Jingsiju, especially Ling Gege, pretend to be aloof all day long, but in fact they are charming and charming, and let Lord Beile take Jingsi home."
The capital rewarded her."
Nian picked up her eyebrows that grew slanting into her temples and said in a deep voice: "I don't care about a mere Jingsi residence, let alone Jingsi, Jingsi, doesn't it mean that Jingsi has passed? What do you think is a good sign?
, The future is long, there is no need to rush. She cannot be so lucky every time."
"But..." Lu Yi said with some worry: "I heard that she was very close to Li Fujin, and the master also saw it that day. She didn't know what magic method she used to make the prince obey her words. This will definitely affect the direct descendants.
Fujin’s attitude.”
"It's just Li Yueru, it's nothing. As for the direct descendant of Fujin..." She held the beaded flower on her head and said lightly: "She has always been a clay Bodhisattva. She can just leave it there and don't care about what to do." Niu Hulu thought
Relying on these two people to deal with Ben Fujin is simply wishful thinking." He glanced at Lu Yi.
Eyes said: "I am only worried about Master Beile's attitude now. Can Niu Hulu be eliminated earlier? So you should keep an eye on Jing Si Ju for a long time and report immediately if there is any change. I
I don’t believe I can’t catch her.” Although she didn’t want to admit it, that face did make her feel a bit threatened.
"The slave will arrange for someone to monitor Jing Si Ju day and night." Lu Yi replied knowingly.
On the tenth day of March in the forty-fourth year of Kangxi's reign, it was also a day when the flowers were bright and the willows were beautiful, the grass was growing and the orioles were flying, and all the plants and trees glowed with the vitality they should have in spring.
It was on this day that fate drew a heavy stroke in Ling Ruo's life, changing her future life trajectory and making Ling Ruo remember it for the rest of her life, even if many years later she became the most powerful Concubine Xi in the world.
Concubine Xi has never been forgotten for a moment.
Mo Yu once asked Ling Ruo, who was already Imperial Concubine Xi, a question: If you could exchange your current honor and favor for everything that happened on the tenth day of March in the 44th year of Kangxi's reign, would you be willing?
"If possible, I am willing to trade this life for his." Ling Ruo's answer was sad and helpless. Nothing could go back to the past, so she would live with regret for the rest of her life.
This day was the same as usual. After breakfast, Ling Ruo took a cup of tea brewed by Huangshan Maofeng and swayed leisurely on the swing while watching Xiao Luzi pruning flowers and branches. Although Xiao Luzi was clumsy in speech, he had very skillful hands. Jingsi
He is responsible for taking care of all the flowers and trees in the house, trimming the flowers and plants in the entire courtyard to green and lush flowers. Except for Xiao Changzi, who is still recuperating, the others are busy with their own tasks.
Every time the toes touch the ground, the swing will sway gently, smart and elegant, and the clothes are flowing as if they are not touched by any dust in the world. It is the ultimate tranquility and beauty.
"Auntie! Auntie!" A small figure ran over, breaking the tranquility of the morning. It was Honghui who had just finished morning class. He was holding a big kite in his hand, which was the one Ling Ruo gave to him last time.
His eagle kite.
"Run slower." Ling Ruo stretched out her hand to catch Honghui, and swung back heavily on the swing. After stopping, she took out her handkerchief and wiped Honghui's slightly sweaty forehead, speaking with a touch of affection.
Honghui swayed and coquettishly in Ling Ruo's arms for a while like a knot of candy, and then he raised the kite and said, "Auntie, it's sunny today. I want to fly a kite. Can you go with me?" He was afraid that Ling Ruo wouldn't agree.
He quickly said: "I know all the lessons taught by Mr. today."
"Are you serious?" Ling Ruo scratched his straight nose and asked with a smile. She really liked the lively and intelligent Honghui. With him around, her life would not be too boring.
"Of course, if you don't believe me, Auntie, you can take a test on me." Honghui said proudly with his little chest raised. Even Mr. Song praised him for his improvement in knowledge these days.
Ling Ruo stroked his head and asked a few questions about his homework. Sure enough, Honghui answered them fluently without any mistakes. It seemed that he had really put in a lot of effort.
"By the way, aunt, I just met Lingxi, and she said she wanted to play with us, is that okay?" Although the two often grudge each other, they are brother and sister after all, and their relationship is still very good. They often play together, and Shicai Lingxi
When Xi heard that he was going to fly a kite, she was so happy that she jumped up and down and said that she would go back and get the kite, and asked them to wait for her to come back and fly it together.
"Of course." Ling Ruo said with a smile. She stood up and was about to take the kite from his hand. Mo Yu reminded him: "Girl, you forgot, today is the day when the Weaving Bureau will send new materials. You promised to ask for it."
I am accompanying Li Fujin to select ingredients."
Every spring and autumn, the weaving bureaus in Jiangning, Suzhou, and Hangzhou will send new season materials. The palace is the first, followed by the princes, and then the officials in the capital.
Mrs. Li sent someone to pass the message early, asking Ling Ruo to accompany her to choose some new materials to make summer clothes. Ling Ruo naturally refused to go, but after the pom-pom incident, she changed a lot.
, no longer dodge Li's overtures.
She basically has money in the Baylor Mansion, but the Nian family clearly has the intention of not tolerate her and will use excuses to deal with her at any time. She avoided it last time, but Xiao Changzi almost died, so next time? What about the next time?
Who will be injured and killed?
Therefore, if you want to make Nianshi restrained, you must find someone she can avoid. Fu Jin is the best choice, but it is a pity that she does not care about worldly affairs. Therefore, Ling Ruo only has one choice - Li Yueru.
"Auntie, can't you accompany me?" Honghui asked with some disappointment.
Ling Ruo thought for a while and smiled and said: "My aunt promised my aunt Li first. If you don't go, you will be breaking your promise. It's better to do this. My aunt will choose the materials first, and then she will accompany Honghui to fly the kite. Before that, you
Can you put it away with Lingxi first?"
Although Honghui was unhappy, he still agreed, dragged the kite and flew it out. When he was leaving, he turned around uneasy and told Ling Ruo to come earlier.
Ling Ruo never dreamed that this farewell would become her eternal farewell to Honghui...
After accompanying Mr. Li to select the materials sent by the Weaving Bureau, Ling Ruo went to the garden but did not see Honghui and Lingxi. She only knew that they had finished flying kites and went back. Unexpectedly, at dusk, bad news came that
Honghui and Lingxi lost their footing and fell into the water while flying their kites.
, the prince had drowned when he was found, and Lingxi still had a breath left. The imperial doctor had already arrived, and it was still unknown whether he could be rescued. His first wife Fujin had passed out from crying several times, and Li Fujin had been staying by Lingxi's side.
